How to guard against a strong insider? Or even a super insider?

If it's a subject, it's a problem for players like Excellent's students.

Super insiders are almost irrepressible, such as Shaquille O'Neal, and Tim Duncan.

But for those Legendary coaches who are similar to old professors, this kind of topic is simply commonplace.

Since the day the NBA was born, it has been dominated by inside players. For 50 years, no matter how technology advances and how the times change, inside players have always been the core of the basketball game.

Only in this way has the iron law of "the one who wins the inside wins the world", and the annual draft will also put the inside players in the first place to be considered.

...

So, for the most authoritative coaches among the "professors" like Old Nelson, is it difficult to defend the opposing center, although they are talented, but they are rookies and inexperienced?

Obviously not difficult.

Not to mention the fact that he has led the Mavericks in the past few years. In the powerful Lin Li's West, the powerful insiders to be solved include Shaquille O'Neal, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Chris Webber...

In comparison, which one is not as difficult to deal with as the inexperienced Dayao?

Even if he is as strong as Shaquille O'Neill, the old Nelson also came up with the strange but very practical method of "shark-cutting tactics".

...

The reason why Dayao scored 20 points in the first half was all because Nelson allowed the team to play normally.

If they play normally, the Mavericks are already weak inside, and when they play against other traditional NBA teams, they will almost be blown up by the basket.

And today, Dayao happened to be in a particularly good state, so it gave people the feeling that that guy was omnipotent, full of talent, and even a little bit like a god descending from heaven.

...

But things changed in the second half when Nelson Sr. decided to show off Wang Zhi, his favorite Long Guo player.

The Rockets attacked, and after Francis took the ball across the frontcourt, he was about to hand the ball to Yao as he did in the first half, and let him punish the Mavericks at the basket, but he suddenly discovered that the Mavericks had already adopted an off-ball attack on Yao !

Nowitzki was behind Yao, and Wang Zhi, before coming to Yao, went around to defend.

In this way, Dayao has defenders in front and back, and Francis has almost no room to pass the ball.

This is the easiest way to defend a strong inside line, defend against the ball!

No matter how unsolvable the inside player on the opposite side is, as long as the ball is not in his hands, the destructive power will be at least halved.

As strong as the big Shark O'Neal, he often encountered such treatment in the playoffs, so that he couldn't play explosive data.

However, although this kind of double-teaming can well limit the inside players from receiving the ball, it also comes at the cost of letting go of the opponent by one point.

...

Of course, this is a question of trade-offs on the defensive end. Use double-teams to limit the opponent's omnipotent inside line and throw the problem to the opponent's role players.

James Posey became the point where the Rockets were emptied. Francis passed the ball to him decisively. After receiving the ball, Posey made a confident three-pointer from the corner, trying to respond to the Mavericks' three-pointer.

Bang!

But it's a strike!

At the basket, Nowitzki struggled to block Dayao's rebound position, and Wang Zhi took the defensive rebound.

...

The Rockets failed to attack, and the warm atmosphere on the scene cooled down a lot in an instant.

In an NBA game, it is normal for an offensive round to fail.

But the situation presented in this round did make Rockets fans a little disappointed.

...

Dayao is restricted!

He was restrained by the Mavericks' simple double-teaming and no reception, and the crux of the problem was that James Posey missed the corner three-pointer that was emptied.

It is foreseeable that once the Rockets have no way to hit open shots from outside, the Mavericks' double-teaming of Dayao will become more and more presumptuous.

However, Nelson's defensive package has only just begun.

...

The Mavericks attacked, Nash dribbled the ball up the frontcourt, and everyone pulled it out.

Dayao once again had to follow.

Wang Zhi mentioned the 45-degree three-point line and received the ball from Nowitzki's screen, and then the two formed a pick-and-roll.

Almost exactly the same as the last offensive round.

But this time the Rockets' defense changed. After the pick-and-roll, Dayao stepped forward decisively to cause a delay, and James Posey also caught up from the side after bypassing Nowitzki.

There was Dayao's interception in front, and Posey's pursuit on the side.

In this case, it is impossible for Wang Zhi to have room for an outside shot.

Again, this is a common way to defend a pick-and-roll shooter.

The big delay of the inside defender not only prevents direct shooting, but also prevents the ball holder from going directly to the basket.

And when the chasing player is in place, the delayed inside defender will withdraw to the basket in time to make up the defensive position!

...

However, the disassembled Nowitzki did not go down to the basket like a traditional insider, but bounced outside the three-point line.

Wang Zhi passed the ball to Nowitzki decisively. At this time, Dayao, who was delayed, had a huge position with Nowitzki. He knew Nowitzki's long-range shooting level, so he had no choice but to struggle to improve. , to make up the defense and go out.

But it was still too late, Nowitzki made another three-pointer with his hands up and down.

...

The fans of the Rockets were helpless, and they all complained: "The Mavericks' three-pointer is a bit outrageous!"

However, most of the fans didn't notice that Dayao's light footsteps under the basket were staggering after this attack.
