Chapter 293 George Is Speechless
The 20-second timeout ended quickly, and players from both teams returned to the field.
For the Clippers, Russell Butler came on to replace George, and McGrady switched to small forward.
On the Mavericks side, Terry came on to replace DeShawn, and Marion came on to replace Caron Butler.
George sat next to Su Yang and said with a smile: "Boss, you have to tell me how McGrady fights."
Su Yang said: "Okay, you watch it carefully and study hard, but the actual combat must be combined with your own situation, understand?"
George frowned for a while and shook his head slightly.
Su Yang stretched out his palm and said, "Come on, let's compare the size of the palm, and compare the length and width of the sole of the foot."
George followed suit, and the two made gestures, and it turned out that George's palm was almost the same size as Su Yang's, and the length and width of the soles of his feet were only slightly better than Su Yang's. Compared with his height of 203 cm, it seemed particularly incongruous.
George stared at his palm for a long time, frowned and said, "You mean I have small hands and feet?"
"Of course..." Su Yang nodded, "Compared with McGrady, your arm span, leg length, palm and foot size are much worse, so he has a lot of movements, you can't just imitate them blindly, you must change them so that you can use them." The way."
"For example?" George's brows became tighter.
"For example, it is very difficult for you to shake the ball with one hand." Su Yang said, "But don't be sad, many people can't do that action. Even Kobe, it is very difficult to break through with the ball in one hand, so there is no need to force it. "
George was in a daze for a while, and said, "On the first day of playing in the NBA, I have to face such cruel facts..."
Su Yang pursed his lips and shrugged, turned his head to look at the field, just in time to see Nowitzki complete a Golden Rooster independent mid-range shot.
Just as he was about to express his emotion, George frowned again and said, "Why does it seem like every player is more talented than me..."
Hearing this, Su Yang shrugged again, then he is Nowitzki's golden rooster independence, almost the only one.
Between emotions, the offense and defense switched on the field.
Randy ran to the right wing with the ball, scanned the half court position, raised his hand and threw it to the top of the arc, and went straight to the corner.
Xiao Ao received the ball at the top of the arc, observed for a while, turned around and then divided the left wing, then turned and ran to the right.
A large space was left in the entire left half, and McGrady held the ball with both hands to protect his left waist, facing Marion alone.
Seeing the formation of a heads-up situation, the audience cheered and shouted, and McGrady immediately assumed a three-threat posture with his left foot as the axis.
Marion quickly lowered his center of gravity, chose to stand with his feet parallel, and stood in front of him, waiting for the next move.
McGrady raised his right foot, took advantage of the opportunity to step forward to test, and at the same time pulled the ball low and swept, making preparations for a step-by-step breakthrough.
Marion immediately moved slightly to the left, obviously trying to intercept, but at the moment he moved, McGrady withdrew his right foot, followed by raising his right foot and stuck it between Marion's legs, then bent his shoulders and knees, left leg Push the ground to exert force.
Marion wanted to twist his hips, but he was caught by Medica, and his legs were hard to move, so he could only retreat to get rid of it.
At that time, Mai Dila retreated the ball, threw off the two positions in an instant, and skillfully pulled up and jumped for a three-pointer.
Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 40 to 25.
Cheers and applause erupted around the arena. McGrady turned back to defend with a smile. George looked enviously.
"Have you learned it?" Su Yang asked, "Have you figured out the principle of his attack?"
"Of course!" George said confidently, "use the tentative step to force the defender to change direction, take the opportunity to grab the rhythm and break through, if the defender chooses to retreat and intercept, then pull the ball back, if the defense does not move, then break through Layup!"
"You understand half of it." Su Yang nodded approvingly, seeing George's eagerness for knowledge, he continued: "McGrady's tentative step is a normal hand movement, but using a moving foot to get in place requires a huge stride .
If your strides are too short, you won't be able to complete the block, and you'll lose your balance.
The second is that after the block, your pivot foot must provide enough explosive power to support your cross-start breakthrough.Similarly, your breakthrough must have a relatively large stride, or a relatively fast speed, otherwise the defender will not choose to retreat. "
"Stop talking, I understand..." George's expression changed from excitement to disappointment, "You mean that McGrady has big steps and long legs to support him to use the simple breakthrough method just now. If I use it, it depends on the actual situation." Condition."
"That's right," Su Yang said, "When Jordan was young, he often used 'reverse steps' to break through, relying on his large strides and broad shoulders, so he could block defenders behind him with a single turn. , not many people can use that trick now."
George silently turned his head left and right to look over his shoulder, and then raised his hand to gesture, feeling lost.
On the court, Terry made an emergency stop to make a mid-range shot, Kaman grabbed a defensive rebound, and the Clippers launched a counterattack.
McGrady dribbled the ball forward, but the speed was not fast. It took a full five seconds to reach the right wing, raised his hand and threw the ball to the top of the arc.
After passing the ball, McGrady rushed to the bottom corner, started to rush to the basket, and with Kaman's cover, moved to the left half.
Marion chased closely, and even if he was delayed by the cover, he was only one body behind.
In a blink of an eye, McGrady came to the left elbow, reached out to receive the pass from Jermaine Ao, and raised it high.
Seeing this situation, Marion jumped up and raised his hand to block the shot.
But McGrady stopped the movement and put down his hands, grabbed the ball with his left hand and rushed to the basket in two steps, holding up and throwing.
Chandler rushed to make up the defense, McGrady stopped his action again, folded the small lever with one hand, and changed from throwing to picking.
boom!The basketball rebounded into the net, 42 to 25.
The Clippers led straight to 20 points, the audience cheered excitedly, and the Mavericks were all dazed.
George said: "Why, I feel that the opponent can't defend us. Although we can't defend them very much, their shooting percentage is very low. It seems that as long as Jason Kidd is not on the court, they will only play that very simple offense."
Su Yang said: "That is the role of the organizer. Barea and Terry's defense is very poor. In addition, we use high position support to break the zone defense, and the shooting percentage from the outside is very high. As a result, their defense is almost non-existent."
Between words, Nowitzki missed a layup, Kaman grabbed a rebound, and the Clippers launched a counterattack.
Randy ran across the center line with the ball, raised his hand to McGrady at the top of the arc, and strode towards the left sideline.
McGrady took the ball in a three-threat pose, then used Jermaine's cover, and started to break through to the right wing.
Nowitzki's first step was delayed, and Marion followed closely to bypass the screen and intercept the breakthrough route in advance.
McGrady walked in slowly, and Marion was always half a body away, neither approaching nor far away.
Suddenly, McGrady joined the ball and pulled up, defending against Marion face to face, and forced a mid-range shot with a two-stage movement.
The basketball flew through Marion's fingers, glided into the air and fell, hitting the circle with a bang and hitting the net.
44 to 25, the Clippers led by 19 points, and the Mavericks requested a timeout again for a short time.
Cheers broke out in the arena, and George said with a smile: "McGrady's pull-up just now was done by relying on his excellent height and wingspan. I can do this too, just use it on a defender who is a little shorter than me. But, what do you say?"
Su Yang thought for a while, then shook his head again and again.
"Why? Are you deliberately teasing me?" George showed a little dissatisfied expression.
Su Yang said slowly: "McGrady, as a veteran, relies on hard talent to play low-intensity confrontation, and his playing time is limited in the future, but you are our main force. You have to face Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James ..."
"Ah..." George was speechless for a moment, and expressions of excitement, worry, confusion, etc. flashed in his eyes.
Su Yang raised his hand and patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Young man, you still have a long way to go..."
After the timeout, the Clippers maintained their big lead until the end, beating the Mavericks to win their first win of the season.
