All-Around Forward Swingman

Facing the pick-and-roll, we must actively switch defenses. When necessary, Tracy can abandon the opponent's defender and help Yao defend Deron. "Adelman said to Tracy McGrady.

McGrady nodded, indicating that he knew.

After the timeout, the Jazz gave up the failed strategy of letting Boozer single Yao Ming, and continued to use their familiar pick-and-roll tactics.

After the switch, Yang Shan had no problem defending Boozer, but Yao Ming had a big problem defending Deron.

Deron is small and fast, and he can pass Yao Ming with just one breakthrough. McGrady obeyed Adelman's arrangement and abandoned Brewer to help defend Deron.

Deron immediately passed the basketball to Brewer, and Brewer caught the ball outside the three-point line and hit a three-pointer, recovering the score to three points.

The reason why the pick-and-roll tactics make people feel unsolvable is that it can cause dislocation, whether it is small playing big, or big playing small, there is a matchup advantage.

Especially the side that blocks people, the Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics, the people who block are usually centers or power forwards, they are tall and have shooting range, it is difficult for the guards of the general team to guard against them.

When the opponent's big man goes to defend Deron, Deron will often break through to the inside and score. If the opponent assists in the defense, Deron can pass the ball to the open player.

However, most teams don't use centers to help Boozer, but use power forwards, but because Yao Ming's footwork is slow, he can't defend Jazz center Okur, so he can only use him to defend Boozer. Laidron has a greater advantage over Yao Ming.

Okur, who is defended by a power forward, has a very accurate three-pointer. When attacking, he will not go in most of the time, but ambushes near the three-point line, ready to catch the ball and shoot

In this way, the opponent's center was pulled to the outside again, and Deron's breakthrough was more powerful.

This is also the main reason why, for two consecutive years in history, the Jazz have been the Rockets' sufferers.

Of course, another reason is that Yao Ming had physical problems in the first year, and Yao Ming was injured in the second year. Otherwise, he could play Boozer in the paint and recover the score.

These problems don’t exist now, so the Rockets don’t take the Jazz’s goals too seriously. After all, after a game, you can’t prevent them from not scoring a single goal. This is impossible, as long as they score more than them That's it.

The Rockets have no good way to take the Jazz's pick-and-roll, and the Jazz has no good way to attack the Rockets.

The main reason is that the addition of Yang Shan has brought more changes to the Rockets' offense. In the past, the Rockets relied on Yao Ming's singles and McGrady's singles, at most there was a little cooperation.

But with Yang Shan, Yang Shan can play singles by himself, pass the ball after breaking through, and use players to cover the offense. Even Yang Shan can pass the ball in post-up singles by himself, and his pick-and-roll with Scola and Yao Ming is similar Sample.

Especially the pick-and-roll between Yang Shan and Yao Ming is often not only played by the two of them, but also a third player will participate, allowing Yao Ming to easily get a shot.

The two sides are fighting each other according to their own routines, but the score between each other has gradually widened. At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets led the Jazz by 15 points with 3621 points.

During the rest time, Sloan did not think of a good way to limit Yang Shan's performance. In the previous game between the Warriors and the Rockets, two players were used to limit Yang Shan. .
