I’m Really Playing Basketball

Whether he is a player or a head coach, for Jordan, as long as the problem can be solved in singles, it is not a problem.

As a rookie head coach, it is unrealistic for you to expect Joe to become a head coach like Popovich and Carlisle.

However, if you think Jordan is just a simple chicken soup head coach like Doug, then you are looking down on Joe.

Although Boss Qiao is not as capable of developing players as Bobo, and does not have the all-around tactical ability of Carlisle, Boss Qiao has been following Phil for so many years. Although he does not understand triangle offense, he understands singles offensive tactics. At the same time, his super strength Singles ability can also cultivate talents for singles offense.

Therefore, Jordan has tactical ability and training ability in the Bobcats.

However, Jordan's tactical ability and training ability are all singles abilities.

However, in the game against the Nuggets, what really matters is the ability to play in singles.

With Iverson and Anthony, the Nuggets are the singles team in the NBA.

Even if there is cooperation between players, most of it is the cooperation between Iverson and Anthony on the strong side.

As for the others, Nene and Camby rush for the ball.

Jr. Smith, who came on as a substitute, still played in singles.

From pitching to finishing.

On the court, the Nuggets continued to attack, and Iverson still tried to use his sharp offensive ability to open up the Bobcats' defense.

Hopefully the Bobcats change their man-to-man defense strategy.

But it is obvious that even in this attack, Iverson still broke through Chris Paul and humiliated Randolph at the basket. The Bobcats' defensive strategy still did not change.

Chen Xiao was still stuck in front of Anthony.

As long as the Nuggets players don't move around like the Spurs players and use pass-and-run tactics, the Bobcats will be one-on-one man-to-man defense.

It depends on whether Iverson can attack or, looking back, our Bobcats players can attack.

Of course, Anthony is also very capable of attacking.

It's just that the Nuggets are currently in the stage where Iverson attacks first and tears apart the opponent's defense.

However, just like Iverson's beautiful attack just now, looking back, when the Nuggets fans in front of the TV saw that in order to prevent Chen Xiao and Paul from playing pick-and-rolls, this time the defense was switched to Granger. When Iverson in front of him was actually beaten one-on-one by Granger, the Nuggets fans in front of the TV really didn't know what to say.

After receiving the pass from Chris Cannon, Granger looked at Iverson who was defending seriously in front of him. He suppressed the excitement in his heart. After taking a step away from Iverson with his body and a slightly unnecessary crotch, Pulling it up is a mid-range jumper.

A swipe!

Hit!

5 to 4!

Iverson's defense still caused some trouble for Granger.

Iverson's aggressive defense is actually not that easy to play if you don't have a strong pull-up ability like Chen Xiao.

Because Granger's dry pull ability is not that strong yet, he needs to push up and then move again. This is a bit redundant.

That is to say, Iverson is not tall enough.

However, wasn't it precisely because Iverson was not tall enough that Granger dared to play Iverson in singles like this?

After last season's offensive baptism in the playoffs, Granger's maturity in various techniques has once again been greatly improved.

Well, he was more courageous than he was in the regular season last season.

And he is a very determined player.

This game between the Bobcats and the Nuggets is a very popular game that is broadcast live across the United States.

As soon as the game started, the one-on-one singles attack between the two teams was very popular with the audience in front of the TV.

Singles is the most essential beauty of basketball!

On the court, the game continued, and the Nuggets continued to attack. After the first two Iverson attacks, the Bobcats' defense was completely unmoved. How could the Nuggets not see that the Bobcats had no intention of playing this game? Iverson's offense changes his defense.

Therefore, in the Nuggets' third attack, Iverson did not attack again, but replaced it with Britney.

After Iverson and Britney started the pick-and-roll, the cannon was switched in front of the cannon. The cannon was held in front of the back with the ball. After suppressing the cannon, he made a beautiful back turn. After turning the cannon, he followed It's just a mid-range dry pull.

A swipe!

Hit!

6 to 5!

"Beautiful! The game between the Nuggets and Bobcats was so exciting!"

"So far in this game, all the offenses have been singles!"

"The Nuggets and Bobcats are really a singles team!"

In a game between two singles teams, if the offensive players are in good condition, the game will indeed be very beautiful.

Looking back, the Bobcats attacked. This time, the Bobcats did not mess with Iverson anymore.

Xiao Pao was bullied by Britney just now. After playing a pick-and-roll with Chen Xiao, he received Chen Xiao's return ball. Facing Anthony's defense, he made a sudden move and then pulled. After completely shaking Anthony away, Xiao Pao was in the paint area. Successful mid-range fadeaway jumper.

Very solid mid-range shot.

Historically, in the third season of his career, Paul still did not develop the three-point shot, but he completely developed the mid-range shot.

In the third season of Paul's career, his close-range two-point field goal percentage increased by 9% compared to the second season, reaching 52.4%. His mid-range two-point field goal percentage increased by 2%, reaching 45%. The rate of two-point shooting from a distance increased by 10%, from 36% to 46%.

Paul's shots are generally divided into short-range shots and long-range shots in the paint area. In the true sense, there are actually not as many mid-range shots in the middle as there are on both sides.

Therefore, starting from this season, Xiaopao has achieved full coverage of the offensive area inside the three-point line in a true sense.

Of course, the current Xiaopao is not at his peak yet. When Xiaopao was at his peak, his shooting rate in various areas within the three-point line could reach about 50%. There were really no blind spots at all.

However, even if he is not at his peak, the current Xiaopao is already super good in singles and mid-range.

If he can find his rhythm, Xiaopao will definitely be one of the best small-to-big players in the NBA right now.

Even if Chen Xiao can't guard against it, let alone Xiao Tiantian.

When Chen Xiao defends Xiaopao, he has to give up a step of space because he is afraid that Xiaopao will break through. Now, with Xiaopao's shooting ability, he has to give up a step. As long as Xiaopao finds his shooting rhythm, he will be sure of success.

7 to 6!

After the small cannon scored, all six singles played by the two teams in the opening period were hits!

"The players of the Bobcats and Nuggets are in excellent condition for this game!"

Even Barkley on the sidelines was amazed by the offensive state of the two teams in this game.

After the two teams scored five consecutive goals, the next Nuggets offense was continued by Anthony. This time, the pick-and-roll between Iverson and Anthony failed to come out due to the clever rush of the cannon, so Britney took over. After getting the ball, the player in front of him was still Chen Xiao.

Anthony didn't dare to use the triple threat, and Britney didn't dare to use the back-turn after crushing Xiaopao.

Finally, Anthony, who had already reached the three-point man in the pick-and-roll, chose to pull out and continue to call for inside coverage.

With the help of Nene's cover, Anthony got rid of Chen Xiao's defense. Facing Randolph's half-step back defense, Anthony made a handsome long-distance two-pointer and shot backwards. With a bang, iron!

I have to say that this offense was not in Anthony's rhythm.

From the small cannon to taking away the pick-and-roll of Iverson and Anthony, Anthony's offense this time was basically a strong attack.

Of course, Anthony has the ability to attack hard, so although he missed this time, it was still a tactical attack.

Unlike the Nuggets, Iverson and Anthony initiate each singles strategy.

For the Bobcats, if they play singles tactics, there will be a lot more tricks.

The Bobcats did not complete the previous three singles with the same person.

In the fourth time, the Bobcats still changed players for singles.

After receiving the pass from Chen Xiao, Zach Randolph made an O'Neal-style turn and hit. After knocking Nene away from behind, he continuously shook Camby away from the defense and succeeded in a one-handed dunk!

9 to 6!

Four attacks, four different players, and still all hits!

"The Bobcats players are so good in isolation!"

To be honest, as soon as the game started, George Karl on the sidelines was stunned by the Bobcats' singles ability.

Although Nuggets players are generally not good at one-on-one defense, even if they are not good at one-on-one defense, they are still NBA-level players. Although your luck is definitely greater than your strength in making hits this time, it is impossible to achieve such an achievement without the support of strength. .

And four consecutive singles in one game, hit by four different players, is really scary.

But fortunately, George Karl no longer needs to be frightened.

He originally thought that the Bobcats would not have all five different players complete singles in the opening game, right?

In fact, Bobcats do just that.

But Bynum was a little disappointed.

It was originally an opportunity to play Camby alone.

But Bynum was still too young and too anxious. He shook Camby slightly and wanted to dunk. His head was a little dizzy, and he forgot that Camby was a jumping person with super strong continuous jumping ability.

In the end, Bynum was blocked by Camby's continuous bounces.

Bynum failed to allow the Bobcats to complete five consecutive single hits, leaving Jordan on the sidelines quite regrettable.

Bobcat fans on the sidelines felt sorry for themselves, too.

George Karl on the sidelines finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He always thought that after Iverson and Anthony joined forces, the Nuggets would be alone in seeking defeat in singles.

Any team that dares to play singles with the Nuggets will be a dead end.

He really didn't expect that the Bobcats would even be able to slightly suppress the Nuggets in singles games with them.

George Karl is not a fool. Although Anthony and Iverson are strong, the Nuggets only have two singles players.

And the Bobcats have four if not five. This is a standard situation where two fists are difficult to defeat with four hands!

Therefore, in this game, when Iverson and Anthony were still at their peak physical strength, the Bobcats and Nuggets were indeed inseparable.

At the end of the first half, the Nuggets even led the Bobcats by five points, 67-62 on the road.

Why is this so?

Of course, it's because the Nuggets' singles in the first half were focused on Iverson and Anthony.

As for the Bobcats, Randolph, Chen Xiao, Paul, Granger, and even substitute Roy and Bynum all played a lot in isolation.

There are a lot of people playing solo, but when everyone has enough energy, the efficiency will be low if there are many people.

Unless these people are better than Iverson and Anthony in singles.

But how is this possible? Except for Chen Xiao, no one else on the Bobcats can beat Iverson and Anthony in singles.

So it's normal for the Nuggets to lead when Iverson and Anthony are at their peak.

However, in the second half, the Bobcats' physical advantage of constantly changing players in singles was reflected.

Anthony and Iverson, who scored 24 points and 17 points respectively in the first half, saw their efficiency drop significantly in the second half and third quarter.

Anthony scored 2 of 7 in the third quarter and scored 4 points. Iverson scored 2 of 6 in the single quarter and scored 7 points. On the contrary, Camby and Nene grabbed 5 offensive rebounds in this quarter. , 5 of 6, scored 11 points for the Nuggets.

However, Nene and Camby are highly efficient and cannot solve the systemic problems in the Nuggets' offensive tactics.

For a team that focuses on singles, when there is a problem with the main attacker's offense, the problem is very serious.

The main thing is that if the Nuggets' offense has a problem, the Bobcats will not have a problem!

It should be said that even if two Bobcats players have problems, wouldn't there be two more?

Therefore, although they are all singles, the Bobcats' singles will never have a collective misfire like the Nuggets.

Durability and stability are definitely not comparable to the Nuggets.

Let's put it that way.

The Bobcats' strength this season lies in their stability in singles.

The Nuggets this season are really a bit like the Bobcats last season.

That is, the offense is not very stable.

Therefore, the Nuggets led by five points in the first half. At the end of the third quarter, they scored 24 to 30 in a single quarter.

At the end of the third quarter, the Bobcats were one point ahead of the Nuggets 92 to 91.

In the fourth quarter of the game, with only one point difference between the two teams, the two teams certainly played with their full strength.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Jr. Smith was also on the court.

This can be regarded as sharing some pressure for Anthony and Iverson.

But the Bobcats on the other side are Chen Xiao, Randolph, Granger, Roy and Pao.

A small lineup with a little short height inside.

But the Nuggets don't have Yao Ming or O'Neal, so there is no way to punish the Bobcats' small all-attack lineup.

All five players have strong singles ability. When the Bobcats use this lineup to compete with the Nuggets in singles.

When Chen Xiao finishes, Paul does, when Paul finishes, Roy does, when Roy finishes, Granger does, Granger finishes, Randolph does, Randolph finishes, Chen Xiao goes on!

Dry! Dry! Dry!

In the end, the Nuggets pawn, and it was a tragic pawn!

"My team is the god of singles!"
