Chapter 198 Woodson’s plan

"When it comes to the fourth quarter, I want to see if you can still be alive and kicking like this (read the full text on New Century Lingzi Network)!"

After listening to Yang Shuai's words, Smith glanced at him with twinkling eyes, then turned and walked towards the players' tunnel. The second quarter was already over.

At 54:51, the Warriors led the Hawks by 3 points after halftime. Yang Shuai once again scored 6 points and sent 2 assists in the second quarter. His rebounding today was not very good. In the second quarter, Biedrins rebounded

He gained a lot in terms of performance. He got 6 rebounds in a single quarter and already had 7 points and 9 rebounds after halftime.

Although Yang Shuai did not score many points in the second quarter, his cohesive role in the final period was a strong guarantee for the Warriors to continue their offense. Mike Woodson also knew this very well. He understood that although Hinrich's performance was eye-catching today

, but what really allowed the Warriors to suppress the Hawks in the second quarter was because of Yang Shuai's performance.

Yang Shuai's running time and time again ripped apart the Eagles' defense. Josh Smith's defensive ability is good, but he often cannot keep up with Yang Shuai's running time and time again. Once someone from the Eagles players keeps up with the defense, Yang Shuai will

They will pass the ball out as soon as possible, but Hinrich did a very good job in mobilizing his teammates' offense today, so the Warriors can often get open spaces by moving the ball in the second half.

"In the third quarter, we need to play more aggressively and don't relax our defense against the Chinese kid. If Josh is out of position, other players will immediately step in. In this quarter, we have to keep the Chinese kid on the court, so we need to do it as quickly as possible.

Even if we can't go ahead, we still have to hold on tight. Don't let the Chinese guy take a break. In the fourth quarter, when his energy is exhausted, the Warriors' offensive efficiency will drop, and our chance will come."

Woodson didn't know that Yang Shuai's physical strength had reached a special level, and now he no longer had to worry about physical problems at all, so his arrangement in the midfield was mainly to wear down Yang Shuai (the road to the gunner).

His tactical arrangement does not seem wrong. After all, Yang Shuai’s physical problem is no longer a secret, and the Warriors’ main scoring point now is Yang Shuai. In the old Niers’ tactical system, Yang Shuai has a lot of

With the possession of the ball, he is now not only the Warriors' first scoring point, but also together with Hinrich, he has become the team's two core playmakers.

Woodson believes that as long as Yang Shuai, the Warriors' most stable scoring point and offensive organizer, cannot play his role, his team can completely gain the upper hand.

Of course, this tactic was done out of desperation. Woodson hoped that the team could suppress the Warriors with normal offense and defense, but judging from the first half, this was not easy.

Woodson originally thought that without Jackson, the Warriors would become easier to play, but now he found that he still thought too simply. Belinelli, who replaced Jackson today, performed very well, scoring 9 points in the half.

The offense almost offset Jackson's role.

In terms of organizing offense, with the integration of Hinrich into the team and the awakening of Yang Shuai's ability to organize offense, Jackson's role in organizing offense has been weakened a lot. Now Hinrich is the Warriors' number one offensive organizer.

, Yang Shuai is second, and Jackson is ranked third. With his offensive ability and impact, Yang Shuai has occupied an increasingly important position in Nelson's tactical system, and now he is higher than Jackson.

Youth and better physical fitness are his advantages.

Belinelli's scoring and Hinrich's organizational performance today can completely make up for Jackson's departure. This is why Woodson feels that the Warriors are not easy to play.

Another important reason is that although many people don't realize it, the Warriors' defense has actually changed a lot since the beginning of the season.

The first is Biedrins. The Latvian is very talented in defense. He has been the defensive barrier for the Warriors in the past. However, at that time, Biedrins mostly relied on his own talent and physical instincts to defend.

In the past month, he has been systematically learning defense from Yang Shuai (read the full text of "Trajectory in the Sky: Maple Dance in Another World").

There is no doubt that Yang Shuai’s defense is very strong, and after training in space and a year of practice with the Celtics, he has a very deep understanding of defense. When Biedrins followed him to learn defense systematically

, the progress is quite big. This is especially true in assist defense and supplementary defense, which Biedrins is already good at. On the contrary, single defense is limited by physical confrontation, and Biedlins' improvement is not obvious.

As for the power forward, Landry's defensive enthusiasm is much better than Harrington's. His defensive awareness and willingness are far better than the latter's. His speed and footwork make him a good defender and helper. He is strong.

His body also makes him not afraid of physical confrontation with the opponent.

As for small forwards, it goes without saying that Yang Shuai's defense is top-notch in the league in both solo defense and assist defense, especially when his physical fitness improves.

Jackson's defensive ability is also very good. As for Belinelli, who replaced him today, his defensive ability is a bit weaker. However, Belinelli was very motivated to defend today after being stimulated by the previous game.

Hinrich, although his physical fitness is not outstanding, his defense has been very good since entering the league, which is far from comparable to CJ Watson.

Generally speaking, although the Warriors' defense still lags behind some of the league's strong defensive teams, it has made great progress compared with themselves.

The most important thing about defense is willingness. When every player in the team's starting lineup is willing to actively defend, even if they do not have a good defensive system, at least the defense will not be so bad that it is unsightly. The Warriors are like this now.

Situation, it is no exaggeration to say that if Nelson suddenly pays attention to defense at this time and establishes a good defensive system with the help of an experienced assistant coach, the Warriors' defense will make all teams in the league look at him with admiration.

Of course, this scenario doesn't seem possible, as Nelson already has offensive blood flowing through his bones.

Most people may not be aware of these situations. After all, the Warriors' defense has not improved significantly, and they did not show very good defensive rotations in the game, but this is real.

The intermission passed quickly and the two teams returned to the court. The Warriors had the first wave of offensive rights. The ball was still in the hands of Hinrich. He did not hand it to Yang Shuai at halftime but chose to break through by himself.

(The latest chapter of Breaking the Nine Heavens).

Facing Bibby, Hinrich seemed to be playing with great confidence. He suddenly rushed behind Bibby and left the old Bibby behind. Facing Hinrich who rushed into the paint, Horford had to step in.

Hinrich was trying to cover up the defense, but at this moment Hinrich threw the ball high.

Biedrins!

After Horford left, Biedlins rushed to the basket. At this time, receiving a pass from Xin Shiqi, Biedlins dunked without mercy.

"Bump!" As the basket groaned, Biedrins also fell down from the basket excitedly. "Kirk, great pass!"

Woodson frowned when he saw it on the court. After yelling loudly, he made a gesture towards Johnson. Johnson nodded and found Bibby who was controlling the ball. He needed to switch defenses with his teammates.

On the offensive end, the ball still came to Johnson. Seeing that Belinelli was struggling to defend, Yang Shuai immediately stepped forward to help his teammates defend. Johnson chose to distribute the ball and handed the ball to Josh Smith.

Taking advantage of Yang Shuai's time to return to defense, Josh Smith had already taken a shot. Today Smith's offense was average, scoring 7 points in the first half, and most of them were opportunities obtained by Yang Shuai when he was on defense. His ball-handling

It is difficult for the offense to show its power under Yang Shuai's defense.

After Smith scored the goal, the score difference between the two teams remained unchanged. When he came to the other end, Hinrich soon found that his defensive player had been replaced by Johnson.

It was still a pick-and-roll. Hinrich did not change his style of play because he was replaced by Johnson. He did gain space, but his shot that rushed to the inside was interfered by Johnson and bounced out of the basket.

After Johnson grabbed the rebound, he did not hand it to Bibby. Instead, he took the ball to start a fast break. The ball was once again handed over to Josh Smith. After receiving Johnson's pass while running, Smith changed direction and avoided it.

Yang Shuai's defense went straight to the inside (Tutor: I am Tsunwu).

Yang Shuai followed Smith into the paint, but this time he failed to stop the opponent's attack. Smith carried Yang Shuai's layup and scored, 56:55, and the point difference was reduced to only 1 point.

"Eagles! Eagles!" Seeing that the score difference was only 1 point, the cheers of Eagles fans became louder and louder. Woodson kept nodding off the court. He was very satisfied with the team's performance in the second half. He suppressed the opponent on the defensive end.

Then wait for the opportunity to attack, this is his favorite style of play.

Hinrich's attack was blocked again, and Landry finally succeeded in a single against Williams. At this point, Hinrich also realized that he had to change some of his playing methods.

When one of the team's offensive playmakers cannot open the ball, the ball is naturally handed over to another playmaker, Yang Shuai. Hinrich no longer blindly plays hard, but waits for Yang Shuai's movement on the outside.

Smith played very well offensively in this period and worked harder on the defensive end. Yang Shuai, who was under strict guard, began to distribute the ball more to his teammates.

Belinelli stepped up to score at this time. I have to say that Bibby was indeed unable to keep up with the Warriors' rhythm. He couldn't defend against Hinrich, and he couldn't defend against Belinelli either.

In the second half, the Warriors' offensive tactics were more diverse. The ball was no longer distributed blindly by Hinrich. Yang Shuai, Landry, and Belinelli all chose to play more hard, and the effect was very good. Hinrich

Qi turned to a spot-up shooter on the outside, while Biedrins continued to rush for rebounds.

Woodson's expectation that the Hawks would rely on strength to suppress the Warriors in the third quarter did not happen. However, he was very satisfied with one thing. Yang Shuai stayed on the court throughout the third quarter.

Looking at Yang Shuai walking off the court after the third quarter, Woodson's eyes flashed with a smile. Yang Shuai, who played a whole quarter, probably didn't have the energy to continue playing. When Yang Shuai took a rest, the Eagles'

The opportunity has come.

The fourth quarter is the time for the Hawks. Woodson secretly told himself in his heart, and then looked at his players. He had to arrange the lineup for the fourth quarter.
