Chapter 96 Unknown Progress
[-] p.m., Ford Center.
The game is about to start. This is the second home game for the Thunder in the new season. The opponent is the defending champion Celtics. The fans who came to watch the game were very excited.
On the ESPN live broadcast stage, Mike Brin, Jeff Van Gundy, and Mark Jackson sat in turn.
"Jeff, what do you think of the outside criticism of Su Yang?" Brin asked.
"That doesn't make sense..." Van Gundy shook his head. "There are many and complicated reasons for the Thunder's four-game losing streak, including the injury of two main centers, Westbrook's lack of organizational skills, and Jeff Green's defensive deviation as a power forward."
"He's too young, contrary to public perception, and the outside world is very jealous of his achievements." Mark Jackson said, "It is very difficult to rebuild a team to win, especially a team like the Thunder that only rookies can play. .”
"So can he win tonight? He said in the interview before the game that the Thunder will win, and he has always fulfilled his promises before, including turning the Blazers into a strong team, including beating the Spurs in the playoffs, and letting the Blazers score. Western Conference Finals," Breen asked.
"Well, it's hard..." Van Gundy looked worried.
"There is still hope, but relatively small, because the Celtics..." Jackson quickly explained why.
On the field, the long whistle sounded, and the referee reminded the starting players of the two teams to enter the field and prepare.
Seeing this, Su Yang called the starting five players to form a circle, and repeatedly emphasized the main offensive strategy: first play around Durant, the strongest player in the team, until the Celtics are forced to change their defensive strategy, and then change to other players depending on the situation. Law.
Durant and the others nodded to express their understanding, while Jordan said excitedly: "Coach, I will not let you down."
Su Yang smiled and patted his shoulders, guessing that Jordan should have heard the compliment from assistant coach Brooks.
Short whistles followed, and the big central screen showed the starting lineups of the two teams: point guard Westbrook vs. Rondo, shooting guard Kyle vs. Ray Allen, small forward Durant vs. Pierce, power forward Green vs. Gane Specifically, center Jordan vs. Perkins.
Amidst the cheers, Jordan won the jump ball and the Thunder first attacked.
Westbrook dribbled the ball forward, and raised his hand at the center line to signal the whole team to Delay (delay) to start.
Seeing his movement, the other four Thunder quickly ran to stand. Green led Garnett to the right corner, keeping Garnett away from the attacking area, while Jordan stayed at the top of the arc and Durant stopped. At the left 45-degree three-point line.
In the blink of an eye, Westbrook took the ball to the 45-degree area on the right, and then threw it to Jordan at the top of the arc.
Jordan took the ball and moved to the left, and then passed Durant at a 45-degree angle. Kyle, who was squatting on the left corner, raised his foot at the same time, and strode into the paint. Space, let Durant singles.
The Celtics' defensive attention naturally focused on Durant, but Kyle stopped suddenly, twisted his hips and ran to the free throw line, erected a wall to block Perkins, and Jordan rushed to the unguarded basket. Perkins' speed is not up at all.
Seeing this, Durant immediately raised his hand and threw the ball towards the basket, and Jordan kicked off at the same time.
Ray Allen wanted to switch defenses, but he was too short to cause interference, and Garnett had no time to shrink.
Boom!Alley dunk.
The Thunder scored two points first, and cheers erupted in the arena. The fans seemed to have never seen a dunk.
"This is a delayed start and turned into a UCLA air cut, but unlike the traditional UCLA air cut, the defender is responsible for the screen instead of the center. It is a great tactic to make full use of Perkins' slow movement. "
"In the first four games, the Thunder focused on European-style pick-and-roll offense. This time they met the Celtics. They knew that the opponent was good at defending against pick-and-rolls, and their rotation was also strong. They decisively changed their tactical thinking and executed them efficiently, which shows that they have a solid foundation."
On the court, the Celtics attacked, and after the basketball was passed a few times, Garnett singled Green in the low post.
Relying on the advantage of height and strength, Garnett turned his back to squeeze out the space, and turned over and shot a jumper arrogantly.
With a bang, the basketball hit the basket and hit the iron.
Jordan jumped high and caught the rebound, landed and turned around to hand it to Westbrook, and the Thunder launched a counterattack.
Westbrook raised his hand again to signal a delayed start, and Green took Garnett to the right corner, away from the offense.
The moment the basketball passed to the top of the arc, Kyle bowed and started again, heading straight for the paint area.
Perhaps because he was cheated before, Ray Allen deliberately slowed down while chasing Kyle.Perkins also quickly turned his head to look behind him, beware that Kyle set up the wall again as a back screen, and Pierce frequently waved his hands to interfere with Durant.
Unexpectedly, Kyle really crossed the paint area, but Jordan ran to the left 45 degrees to set up a wall as a cover.
The situation became 2V2, Durant took the opportunity to cross and step to the bottom line to break through, and Perkins hurriedly attacked.
Seeing this, Jordan turned around and cut to attack the basket, while Durant stopped suddenly and passed the ball. With Perkins' height and reaction, there was no way to stop him.Garnett wanted to rush from the bottom corner to defend, but was delayed by Kyle and Green.
Boom!Little Jordan smashed the buckle vigorously with both hands, beat his chest and shouted forgetfully after landing.
"It seems that the Thunder team is very well prepared before the game, and the players clearly know the Celtics' defensive strategy."
"Durant was interviewed before the game and said that Su Yang had made very detailed arrangements and that the whole team practiced very seriously."
The offensive and defensive transition on the court, Rondo slowly took the ball to the center line, raised his hand and gestured for a tactical command.
The Celtics started to run immediately. Ray Allen and Pierce were separated from the left corners. Looks like it's ready to start.
Su Yang turned his head quickly, vaguely remembering that it was a fake RAM-turned-double-screen tactic, the steps were simple and easy to implement, but it was used on the combination of Garnett + Perkins + Rondo with extremely low long-range shooting threats, just stick to the inside line .
Thinking of this, Su Yang gestured at Jordan to shrink, signaling to squat inside to prevent breakthroughs.
Snyder also gestured to remind him, and yelled at Jordan, obviously having the same idea.
While shouting, Garnett turned around and went down, setting up a wall at the free throw line to block Jordan.
Perkins took the opportunity to start and rush to the top of the arc, Garnett also turned around and ran to the top of the arc, and a double screen was formed.
Rondo immediately accelerated to get rid of Westbrook and quickly reached the free throw line, but was blocked by Jordan.
Facing obstacles, Rondo continued to cross the dribble and rushed to the bottom of the backboard, leaning on Jordan and raising his right hand.
That action, no matter how you look at it, is a low-handed layup.
Jordan immediately jumped off the ground to block the shot, but Rondo stopped abruptly to pull the ball, turned around, and jumped up from the ground to throw.
That was Rondo's signature move, and the whole process was done in one go, quite exciting.
But after all, Jordan is young and has good explosive power. He took off for the second time in an instant, and raised his hand to hit a big cap.
Snapped!The basketball flies upside down at the top of the arc.
Green reached out to catch the basketball, turned around and handed it to Westbrook, and the Thunder launched a counterattack again.
Rivers got up and shouted at the referee, emphasizing the violation of the ball interference, but unfortunately his voice was completely covered by the cheers of the fans.
Westbrook dribbled the ball to the center line without raising his hand to call for tactics. Durant and the others put Delay in his position and started.
The same position, but the movement is different.
When Jordan received the ball at the top of the arc, Durant went straight to the waist at 45 degrees from the left, and then stuck with his back.
At the same time, Kyle lifted the left wing from the left corner and reached for a pass from Jordan.
A triangle attack was formed, and Kyle passed the ball to the left waist, turned and ran to the top of the arc.
This time, Durant really wants to play singles.
Pierce hurriedly pressed his knee against the plate, exerting pressure continuously, and the hand hidden behind also made small movements frequently.
Durant didn't have the slightest thought of confrontation, turned around to face the frame, and took advantage of the momentum to bow and sweep.
Pierce moved his feet subconsciously, trying to prevent the cross-step breakthrough, but Durant pulled up and shot.
bass!The basketball went into the net, and the Thunder led 6-0. The cheers of the fans resounded throughout the arena.
Durant turned back to defend, grinning at the Thunder bench, looking a little handsome.
Van Gundy praised: "It seems that KD has made some unknown progress this summer. In other words, it was a successful attempt for Su Yang to change him to a small forward. He doesn't have to run a big circle to catch the ball. Jump shot."
"He mentioned in an interview before the game that during the off-season, Su Yang would send text messages to remind him to go to training every day, and he would send them at any time, no matter sooner or later, like a supervisor..."
