NBA: Legendary coach signs with league for 10 years

After reading this information, Wang Chen was somewhat shocked.

He originally thought that he could achieve the same effect as Rondo, knowing the opponent's tactical arrangement and making defensive deployments in advance.

But he didn't expect it to be so detailed.

He even interpreted the changes in the steps of the Zen Master.

"Unfortunately, the trigger probability is not very high, and it was triggered for the first time when the second quarter was almost halfway through."

Wang Chen felt it was a pity. If it could be triggered every timeout, then he would have no solution.

The timeout was not over yet.

Wang Chen seized the time and took a look at Kareem Rush's condition. Kareem Rush was neither hot nor cold and had no condition.

After seeing Kareem Rush's condition, Wang Chen decided not to let go of the three-pointer. He planned to turn the tables and follow the prediction of the Zen"733" master to switch to a zone defense.

However, the end point arranged by the Zen master turned out to be a feint and a secret defense.

There was still enough time to re-arrange new defensive tactics for the players, and it was almost arranged before the timeout.

It doesn't matter if it's not arranged well, he can immediately do it in the next round. Follow up with a timeout to continue the arrangement.

The timeout ended, and the players from both teams returned to the court.

Seeing the Lakers players coming on the court, Wang Chen's mouth curled up slightly.

Just like the effect interpreted by the mind-reading glasses, Fox left the court and Kareem Rush came on the court.

Lakers have the ball.

When Payton dribbled the ball across half court this time, he briefly read the defense and found that the Nuggets switched to a zone defense.

Payton immediately admired the Zen Master. The Zen Master said that the opponent would switch to a zone defense, and the Nuggets really switched to a zone defense.

You must know that before this time, the Nuggets under Wang Chen had never played a zone defense. The way they limited the inside was man-to-man inside, and the outside line was directly left open.

"He has some talent, but he is still too young.

Phil Jackson also smiled knowingly. It seems that although Wang Chen is weird, he still can't escape his control.

"This is the first time I see the Nuggets coached by Wang Chen playing a zone defense."

Kenny Smith in the commentary booth was also very surprised.

The defensive tactic of zone defense is rarely used in the NBA.

Because it was officially lifted on April 12, 2001, the main target was O'Neal. At that time, O'Neal helped the Lakers win the championship again, which was too difficult to solve.

But this tactic is still not used by many teams, because after the promulgation of the legalization of the zone defense, a defensive three-second zone was also set up, which made many teams with big centers not very interested in the zone defense.

After all, the center runs slowly, and the defensive effect is not that good if he keeps going back and forth in the three-second zone.

But the Nuggets are very suitable for playing a zone defense, because Camby and Anderson are both fast and flexible centers, and the defensive three-second zone does not have much impact on them, and they themselves are not the kind of people who buy homes in the three-second zone.

"Let's take a look at the Nuggets' zone defense."

Johnson's eyes were serious. After all, few teams can play zone defense well now.

Payton did not give the ball to the crowded inside line, but handed the ball to the Lakers players to pass the ball.

Just as the Zen Master arranged, after several passes, the Nuggets obviously couldn't keep up.

Devin George got an open opportunity, of course, this open space was a fake open space, Leonard had already filled it.

Devin George remembered Phil Jackson's tactics in his heart, lightly touched, and immediately lowered his center of gravity and rushed inside when he saw Leonard made a diving action.

The road in front of him was flat, and O'Neal's area was still defended by two people for a long time. Devin George prepared to make a stable floater with this ball. The only people who could come to fill him were the two people defending O'Neal in the inside line. If there was anyone who came to fill him, he would pass it directly to O'Neal. (To read the violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

In a 1v1 situation, O'Neal can single-handedly attack any inside player of the Nuggets.

If the Nuggets had a player who could single-handedly defend O'Neal, Wang Chen would not have to use some stupid tactics to limit O'Neal.

Just when Devin George was happily preparing to shoot and steadily score two points, he suddenly felt a chill on his back.

At this time, Devin George had already made a move to shoot, and he could not be distracted and look back, so he could only continue to shoot.......

Bang!

The ball just left his hand and was blown away from behind.

"How is it possible?"

Devin George turned around and found that it was Leonard who was sent flying by him just now.

Devin George simply couldn't understand why Leonard, who had been sent flying, could catch up with him from behind.

If Leonard's speed was really that fast, coupled with Leonard's decent offensive skills, why couldn't he make it to the All-Stars for so many years?

Devin George was right. If Leonard really had that ability, he wouldn't be often relegated to the bench by Wang Chen.

In fact, Leonard doesn't have that fast speed or that fast reaction, it's just because Wang Chen arranged it in advance.

Wang Chen told him alone that when Devin George sent him a fake defense, it would be Wang Chen's fault if he scored, and he wouldn't take the blame.

Leonard was indeed pretending to be deceived just now. He just made a move, and the overall focus of Leonard has not changed.

After seeing Leonard's fake move, Devin George broke through directly and didn't observe Leonard at all.

"Is Leonard a player with a high basketball IQ for defense?

Phil Jackson had some doubts.

Phil Jackson didn't do much research on Leonard.

Although Leonard was the Nuggets' top scorer in the playoffs, after Wang Chen took over the Nuggets, Leonard barely had any playing time as a role player.

But Phil Jackson still had a general impression. At least from his impression, Leonard's basketball IQ was relatively average.

After all, Phil Jackson had an idea of the outstanding players.

"I hope it's Leonard's basketball IQ."

Phil Jackson frowned.

It's acceptable that Leonard has a high basketball IQ. If it's not this situation, but Wang Chen arranged it.
