Nba: This Superstar Is Too Stable

"Ding, Offensive Choice: Good. Passing Choice: Excellent. Gain: Solid Value +7, USD +700.

After sending out this wonderful pass from behind, Bai Feng received positive feedback from the system.

Apparently, his guess was right again!

It seems that the standard for the system to determine whether it is reasonable or not has never been reasonable to play like the traditional academic school, as long as your handling of the ball is within your ability, or within your control, it is reasonable.

In this way, it is understandable why those three-pointers that were shot against someone after fancy dribbling from beyond the three-point line were judged to be unreasonable, because that kind of scoring method was not within the control range, even if it was scored, The probability is also because of the anti-sky feel, or luck.

After Bai Feng and Stoudemire of the Knicks completed this beautiful connection, not only the fans were dumbfounded, but also the substitutes and coaches on the sidelines were dumbfounded.

Knicks head coach Mike D'Antoni often misses his time coaching in the Suns.

At that time, their running and guns swept the entire league, and the orange whirlwind of the sun was called the most beautiful landscape in the NBA.

At that time, Pinnacle Stoudemire and Pinnacle Nash achieved each other perfectly.

But it was still a success and failure, and eventually parted ways.

Since leaving the Suns, D'Antoni thought he would never meet the Suns in his career, the team that best suited his tactical philosophy.

But today, just now, he saw the shadow of Steve Nash in Bai Feng.

But immediately, D'Antoni realized that Bai Feng is not Nash, he is more comprehensive than Nash! If nothing else, Bai Feng's perimeter defense is definitely above the standard, even elite level!

And now, Bai Feng has shown the creativity that he didn't like to show before on the field, which attracted constant exclamations from the audience. With such a strong growth rate, D'Antoni is not sure what Bai Feng will grow into in the future. players, but it will be very scary.

On the other hand, when the Spurs' home contacted, Popovich had a completely different expression.

Unlike D'Antoni's surprise, he had a playful smile.

It seems that he still underestimated Bai Feng.

In fact, Popovich came prepared for this game. He wanted to lead the Spurs to win the game, and he had to try his best to limit or even suppress Bai Feng's performance.

A head coach of the No. 1 team in the West, going against a team in the seventh or eighth place in the East at the end of the regular season? Is it necessary?

If it's just for ranking or something, it's totally unnecessary.

But Popovich came with 907 with a "personal grudge".

That's right, this "grievance" was settled in the main hall of the All-Stars.

At that time, Popovich, as the head coach of the Western All-Star team, guided the Western All-Star team to build a huge lead in the second half, and it was about to close the game. At that time, the Eastern All-Star team sent Bai Feng. .

It was this Bai Feng, who was just a fledgling, but he turned the tide at the critical moment in the superstar-studded All-Star showdown and helped the Eastern All-Stars reverse the game!

Although Popovich arranged several clever tactics at the end of the game, they were all resolved by Bai Feng.

It was at that time that Popovich had a very deep impression on Bai Feng!

Steady play, strong sense of position on the court, and almost every time the ball is handled is the most reasonable choice...

In Bai Feng, there is everything in Popovich's ideal basketball.

That's right, Bai Feng is the defender he wants most.

In contrast, even Tony Parker, who has now been "domesticated" by him, still has many shortcomings.

A lot of times, Popovich would be thinking: "If our point guard was Bai Feng, that would be great!"

But Popovich also knows that it is impossible. San Antonio's ball market is too small. Except for the draft, and some players who go to overseas markets to Taobao come here, there will be no star players willing to come here.

If you can't get it, of course it won't destroy it.

A famous coach like Popovich is not those who are careful

However, this matter still became a regret in his heart, because of the reasons of the east and west, they can only fight twice a year.

So, in this rare matchup, Popovich wanted to take a good look at how much potential Bai Feng has.

He's going to push him!

Unexpectedly, Bai Feng gave Popovich a huge "surprise" at the beginning of the game.

Yes, he's no longer the meticulous point guard Popovich's ideal of John Stockton.

At the beginning of the game, there was a pass similar to that of the peak Steve Nash and Stoudemire, and it was extremely accurate and smooth.

This kind of performance made Popovich unable to fathom the teenager.

Of course, the game will continue, the Spurs attack.

Their players have been very stable over the years, and they won't change anything because of a pass from Bai Feng.

After Tony Parker brought the ball to the frontcourt, seeing that Bai Feng's defensive position was leaking, he didn't even call Duncan's pick-and-roll, and passed it directly to George Hill next to him, letting him dominate the attack.

This lineup of the Spurs can be said to be a dual point guard lineup.

Or a combination of dual-energy guards.

George Hill is better at point guard work, but Tony Parker has been a point guard since his debut.

Popovich's dual point guard lineup has achieved good results this season.

Because the two men have completely different styles, when they each take the ball as an initiator, the Spurs' offensive strategy is also completely different.

Here's the basic theory behind Popovich's lineup!

You heard that right, basic theory!

In fact, the NBA has many head coaches who are called "tactical masters".

The tactical manuals of these coaches are very complicated, and the typical ones are Gregg Popovich, Rick Carlisle and some other head coaches.

How complicated is the tactics? It is said that their complete tactical manual, you can't read it all day and night.

This statement is not an exaggeration, but the tactician masters do not need to practice all tactics, but according to the characteristics of the team, select a few sets of [a dozen sets of tactics more than ten points] for the team to practice.

This is already a lot!

Many NBA teams don't even have complete tactics in the true sense at all, and even some teams have the only tactics that superstar singles play.

Then some fans will ask, how did a coach who doesn't even know how to tactically find a job?

This question will involve different types of head coaches. Due to the complexity of the content, I will not go into details here.

But the conclusion is that the job of the head coach is not only responsible for tactics and on-the-spot deployment, these are only a small part of it.

The ball was in George Hill's hands, facing JR Smith's defense, after relying on Duncan's pick-and-roll, George Hill found an opportunity and made a layup.

2:2

I have to say, this ball is the perfect embodiment of the Spurs' "reasonable basketball".

In fact, Popovich made this deployment before the game, he told Parker and Hill: "Bai Feng, this player has a very good defensive selection, and a defensive selection with almost no flaws, so when we attack on the court , Be sure not to hit him at this point, but to attack JR Smith, in contrast, JR Smith's defense is always full of holes and sometimes lazy."

Whether this is analyzed by data scientists, or based on observations.

In short, Popovich found the most reasonable offensive option for the Spurs.

The significance of dual point guards on the court is to be able to play the opponent's perimeter weakness.

In this league, there are very few teams with two guards who have the kind of defensive ability and awareness.

The Spurs' dual point guard is built on that.

And, scariest of all, it really is just the basics!

Whether it's Hill's attack or Parker's attack, there are still several sets of tactical changes for the Spurs next.

And these sets of tactics are what the Spurs usually need to spend a lot of time in training to consolidate and become proficient in.

The same is true, so few stars are willing to go to the Spurs, and they prefer to play freely rather than practice these boring tactics.

And Popovich's "dictatorship" in the Spurs will probably make the vast majority of star players unbearable.

The Knicks attacked, Bai Feng took the ball to the frontcourt.

At this time, the fans couldn't help but look forward to it again.

"Is Bai Feng going to have another beautiful one like the last round?"

Bai Feng, try something different, I think you can do it. "

"Let's get started, Bai Feng, we're ready to enjoy (bcbj) your gorgeous performance!"

The expectations of the fans did not appear, Bai Feng chose to give the ball to Anthony.

Anthony signaled his teammates to pull away, and then started singles against Jefferson. He quickly used his gorgeous offensive footsteps to get out of the shooting position. Unfortunately, he didn't feel good, and he shot out of the basket in the middle distance.

The Spurs won the rebound. After Parker advanced to the frontcourt, he still chose to give it to George Hill, and it was a pick-and-roll with Duncan. This time, George Hill chose to shoot between the moves after the pick-and-roll, or hit.

2:4

Obviously, this defense, JR Smith's choice has a very unreasonable place.

Although it is not easy to break the pick-and-roll, JR Smith can't completely release George Hill to switch to Duncan. Once the absolute switch is formed, after Duncan receives the ball at close range, he will be helpless.

The most important way to defend George Hill's pick-and-roll is to go around the pick-and-roll without delay and not make a substitution. This defense is a bet on the opponent's ball handler not making a 3-pointer.

Another more commonly used method is to let the defender of the pick-and-roller go up and delay, and then switch the pair back at a more appropriate time.

The Knicks chose the first one, but JR Smith's problem was the irrationality of his stance selection after bypassing the defense.

He's not always in the best defensive position, either too shallow or too deep.

So George Hill can easily find flaws and attack the frame.

Of course, JR's attitude is no problem, but the defensive awareness is slightly weaker.

The Knicks attacked. In the last round, Anthony felt that his strength was not good, not his hand. In order to prove himself, he decided to play another one. After all, a player like Jefferson could not defend himself.

Seeing his teammates want the ball, Bai Feng almost always trusts him unconditionally.

Especially Anthony and Stoudemire, as time goes on, the relationship between the three of them gets better and better, and now they really look like "brothers".

Of course, you can also chalk it up to the fact that if the team is on a winning streak, the relationship will be fine.

Anthony took the ball, and after confronting Jefferson, he turned around and threw off Jefferson directly, and turned directly to the basket for a layup.

However, suddenly

Duncan came out of the slash and gave Anthony a big cap.

The fans at the scene thought that Anthony was going to score a beautiful single, but Duncan's big hat made them feel it was a pity.

Just when everyone thought it was time for the Knicks to retreat, Sparrow stood up, picked up the basketball that was covered on the backboard and bounced back between Duncan and Mike Dyess, and quickly got back on the spot. buckle!

Although Duncan reached out to cover again at the first time, the cover was still a little crooked, and he was not able to defend successfully.

4:4

The score was tied.

In the process of retreating, Anthony shouted to JR: "JR, stick it up when you're defending, we'll make it up for you, don't give them an easy shot!"

JR Smith was brought over by Anthony from the Nuggets. During the 15-game winning streak, he has been playing the team's starting No. 2 position.

However, JR Smith's performance was not ideal. Except for one or two good strikes, he seemed to be a little invisible in more games.

Taken together, he only averaged 12 points per game, a far cry from the 15 points he averaged when he was in the Nuggets.

The most important thing is that JR's performance on the defensive end is not good enough, and it will always become a breakthrough for the opponent.

Anthony missed two singles in a row, and it was already a drag. At this time, of course, he had to bring JR and play harder.

When instructed, JR nodded.

Sure enough, this time in the face of George Hill's ball-handling attack, JR was on guard.

But Duncan's pick-and-roll still blocked him. After that, JR tried his best to chase George Hill, but was seen through by his opponent. Suddenly he made a sudden braking jumper and directly "touched porcelain" JR Smith.

JR couldn't hold back his momentum, and collided directly.

beep!

The referee's whistle sounded and JR was awarded a shooting foul.

George Hill made two free throws.

JR looked helpless and complained to the referee.

Indeed, since the beginning of the game, he has played very depressed. The opponent has hit him at this point three times in a row, and he has not been able to defend once.

With George Hill making two free throws, the score came to 4:6 at the same time, George Hill also scored 6 points.

Looking at all of this, Bai Feng is very clear that the Spurs' steady play is to make the most reasonable use of the matchup advantage to penetrate JR Smith's point.

They did a great job, JR Smith defended hard, but he wasn't defending in the right place.

At this time, Bai Feng put himself in his shoes and thought about it. How would he break the game if he was JR Smith King?

Of course, he won't wait for the coach to replace him. Soon, Bai Feng thought of a corresponding solution, so he walked up to JR Smith and said, "JR, next time they beat you like this, you go grab them. pick-and-roll!"

"Pick-and-roll?" JR was a little puzzled, but since Bai Feng told him, he nodded and said firmly, "Okay!"

It's the Knicks' turn to attack. At this time, Anthony has no plans to ask for singles anymore. After all, he has failed in two singles. Whether it feels good or not is another matter. The opening singles opportunities have been used up. Next, I will hand it over to Bai. Feng handles the offense.

Bai Feng held the ball to face Tony Parker's defense.

Parker's defense was a bit close. Obviously, due to the difference in height and Bai Feng's excellent long-range shooting ability, Parker didn't dare to give him too much shooting space.

Also due to the difference in height, Parker has a low center of gravity and moves more flexibly. He is not afraid that Bai Feng will use his speed to pass him.

At the same time, it also takes into account that when the Knicks may come to the pick-and-roll, they can squeeze through more closely.

******

Bai Feng knew from just one observation that Tony Parker's defensive choices were very reasonable, and there were no flaws.

Obviously, this is the result of special training under the Spurs' "reasonable basketball".

In their team, not only Parker is like this, other players are like this, the whole team is playing reasonably well, you can hardly find a breakthrough like JR Smith in them.

Bai Feng only felt that it seemed interesting to play against this team.

What he had to do in the past was to try his best to play reasonably and not let his opponent find a break.

But now, he's going to face a more reasonable team, and then go ahead and break through them. .
