Chapter 945 You Think I Want to Flank Attack
On the offensive end, Kanter is still a big threat in the low post, and Jerebko cannot defend him alone.But to pass the ball to him and let him play singles comfortably, some prerequisites are still needed.He is not the boss of the team, and many times there are not so many resources for him to find the touch and play well.
On the defensive end, Kanter is another big colander. In today's league, there are very few big men playing with their backs in the paint, so a big center like him is trained by opponent small guards at the top of the arc from time to time.Of course, he often doesn't go to military training, he often plays around the basket.In this way, opponents will catch him and keep running pick-and-rolls with his defenders to find offensive opportunities.
Many players in the NBA are strong offensively and weak defensively, but if you are an insider, if you are still like this, it is basically difficult to become the core of the team.Because inside players have higher defensive requirements, if you always ask your teammates to wipe your ass, what prestige do you have in the team?
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Jazz adjusted their defensive strategy.They started to flank Xie Kai!
About flanking or not flanking Xie Kai, almost every season will become the focus of debate among fans of various teams in the playoffs. There are specific topics on many forums, and some experts and reporters even debate on TV.
This is indeed a very difficult problem for the coaching staff of Xie Kai's opponent team.Don't pinch, he can really kill you.Although his highest score in the regular season is only 56, and the highest score in the playoffs is only 50, but if you let him score 40 points, doesn't it really hurt?Moreover, he scored 40 points efficiently, can you guarantee that he can completely lock his teammates?
But if you flank him, Xie Kai's ability to play the ball is comparable to LeBron James, so the team that flanks him often needs to deal with the situation of less defense and more defense.Considering he's got great teammates, you really can't completely ignore those guys.
This game is an obvious example. Xie Kai's touch in the first half of the first quarter was not particularly good, and his desire to attack was not that strong. The Jazz's single defense benefited.But when he came back later and turned on the offensive mode, the disadvantages of single defense came out.
For a super scorer who doesn't have any dead ends in the offense, you expect him to miss consecutive open shots, and you expect him to miss the offensive end. This is a low-probability event.
There are many wing players in the Jazz lineup, but there are no real defensive gates.What's more, even if you have an outside defensive gate, it is extremely difficult to restrain Xie Kai one-on-one.In recent years, there really hasn't been a player who has completely restricted him one-on-one in a series, and even, none of them have restricted him well.
In this case, flanking has become a helpless choice.You must know that the Thunder is a team with the Big Three, not Xie Kai's one-man team. Flanking him means that the opponent's other positions are 4v3. If Westbrook and Paojiao are both there, you let them play 1v1 or even 2v1. , this scene...
——Aren’t you afraid to watch it?
Coach Schneider really didn't want to flank Xie Kai, he especially didn't want to.Because once flanked, the Thunder's half-court offense will have more options.Westbrook and Pickle are not as good at handling the ball as Xie Kai, but it doesn't mean that these two can't pass the ball.And their offensive ability is indeed too strong.
The Jazz didn't flank in advance either. They flanked Xie Kai when he was attacking with the ball.
The Jazz didn't dare to let go of Pickled Pepper's 3-pointer, but Westbrook's 3-pointer is not stable, and there is really no way to let it go.Patterson agrees.
The Thunder has not opened the outside line today, even the pickled peppers have not been fully opened. The 3 points were inseparable, and the Jazz were not severely punished after Xie opened the ball to create a chance.They have Gobert on the inside, so those who rotate can throw out without worrying about being attacked by the opponent to the basket if they can't get it back.
The Thunder in the second quarter really failed to open the score, and the point difference has been hovering around 2 points.
If you look at it this way, the Jazz's goal has been achieved.But the problem is that they couldn't use their own attacks to break the Thunder's shield, so the score has been unable to overtake.
Wang Zixing sighed: "It seems that the long rest has had a great impact on the Thunder. Their players generally have a bad shooting rhythm, and their bodies have not recovered to the state of the first round."
Su Qun explained: "There is indeed such a situation. Their shooting rhythm is not right, and they have missed a lot of opportunities from the outside. Can you find it, Zixing? Even so, the Thunder are still ahead."
"Yeah, the Thunder can still take the lead, and the Jazz's offense is not good." Wang Zixing said in surprise.
Su Qun said with a smile: "The Jazz have no problem with their strategy and offensive selection. The main reason for their low offensive efficiency is that the Thunder played well. Defense is more important in the playoffs. With good defense, the probability of fault tolerance increases. Yes. As long as the offense picks up a bit, the Jazz will be hard to resist."
At halftime, the Thunder at home led by 48 points 42:6.
谢开第2节受限于夹击，出手很少，得到12分6个篮板5次助攻3个抢断2个盖帽。
K Mi in the stands didn't enjoy watching it very well. Originally, Xie Kai was going to drive Wushuang to fuck hard, but who knew that the other party was attacking.Can't afford it, brother?Although they knew that flanking a player was because he was a big threat, but the viewing experience was indeed down, because Xie Kai was not a person who liked to play more than one.
Section 3 started soon.
The Thunder took the lead and Westbrook dribbled over.
Xie Kai moved without the ball. When he was off the ball, the Jazz would not pinch him.
Westbrook distributed the ball to the raised Duck, Xie Kai and Duck handed each other!
Because Gobert was inside, Xie Kai got a one-on-one chance.
Facing Royce O'Neill, Xie Kai made a quick change of direction, seized his position and went inside.
The pinch came quickly, and Xie Kai distributed the ball to the open Patterson!
Patterson makes a 3-pointer - almost!
Duck's frontcourt board, but still no tip-Gobert closed the board.
The Jazz played very cautiously. Without a particularly good opportunity, they would not make a long pass to switch, for fear of making a mistake and being hit behind by the opponent.In this way, the pressure on the Thunder to return to defense is much less.
Mitchell dribbles over and points to Favors to play Patterson in the low post.
Favors finally played a round and helped the team take the lead in the second half.
At 48:44, the point difference narrowed to 4 points.
Su Qun explained: "Favors singled out Patterson, which is the only point where the Jazz have an advantage in the matchup between the two teams. However, Favors' 3-point defense against Patterson is not good, that is, Patterson didn't feel particularly good today, but he had a lot of opportunities before."
