Chapter 380 [Power forward Jordan, this is the effect]
Yang Rui smiled and said, "Since everyone has no new ideas, let me arrange the tactics. The Nets have defensive weaknesses, so they only won 60 games in the regular season."
Jordan was impatient and interrupted: "You know they have weaknesses, why don't they arrange tactics when they play?"
"Because this is an extreme tactic, we need to discuss it with you, otherwise we won't be able to play well. We will focus on this in the end." Yang Rui explained without rushing: "I have seen the statistics of the Nets losing games, they are the most The strong teams to be afraid of are the Spurs, Timberwolves, and Kings, who were swept in the regular season. The Eastern Conference lost two games to the Pacers and performed very badly. These teams have one thing in common, they are good at coordinating inside.”
D'Antoni answered: "We don't have an insider who is good at coordinating."
"We have, if the Nets start Aaron Williams, who has a poor post-up offense, we can defend the paint. Boozer is average on Curry, and Williams should be fine. Laettner taught him. A lot of things, he knows how to play high-post tactics, he has a good mid-range shot, and he can cut to the inside to make a strong attack." Yang Rui replied.
Jordan said, "Then why don't you just use Laettner?"
"Because Boozer's rebounding ability is better, and he is not the number one candidate for inside support, our offense has to be launched from the flanks. Michael, can you guard Aaron Williams?" Yang Rui asked.
"Nonsense, how can that guy compare to me?" Jordan hummed.He doesn't take blue-collar Williams seriously at all. Even if he is 40 years old, he can rank at the top of the league's player strength list with his comprehensive skills.
"Then next game, you play a power forward and start the game. If you are defending against Williams and Martin, you can hold the ball to attack. Jackson defends you, and you support the pass to the player who is opposite to Williams. here." Yang Rui smiled.
The three of them tasted this tactic, and they all felt that it was a mess.
Aaron Williams is 206cm and weighs only about 100kg. He is an insider who relies on flexibility to play. Jordan is 198cm tall and weighs 100kg.Technical characteristics, Jordan is the outside, Williams is the standard inside.
With Jordan on the bottom line, there's nothing wrong with defending against Williams.
Jordan smiled bitterly and said, "Since you've already thought about the inside support, why didn't you arrange to play like this?"
Yang Rui shook his head and sighed: "I thought Curry would start when I played, so I wanted to empty the basket and make a breakthrough for the guards. Let Boozer start. Whether it's Williams or Curry, he can resist alone. We Continue to use the zone defense, and then grind the position with the Nets, this time to see who grinds to death."
Yang Rui's ideas are endless. Except for him, no coach will let Jordan play power forward, but his explanation is reasonable.
D'Antoni and Hornacek now admire Yang Rui immensely. Listening to Jun's words is better than reading ten years of books.
Like Xibodu, they felt that they had opened up the two veins of Ren and Du.There are teams looking for them to be their head coaches next season, and they have the confidence to do well.
Although he lost the first game, Yang Rui saw the opponent's weakness.The new tactics are likely to work, because the Nets rely on Curry and Martin for low-post attacks, and Curry is poor at defending pick-and-rolls. As long as the Nets play small ball tactics, Jordan can play a power forward without worrying about being overwhelmed.
In the afternoon team training, Yang Rui let the players get used to the tactics.
Boozer coached high-level pick-and-rolls during the regular season, and he felt like a duck to water; Jordan created an era, what storms have he never seen?He can make a cameo at the point guard, and of course it's not a problem to play at the 4 position.He knows what to do, can watch his teammates move and pass the ball to the right spot.
On the evening of May 5, the second battle between the two sides started.
The Wizards' starter came on the scene.Wesley, Hamilton, Maggette, Jordan, Boozer.
Live on TN*T radio.Barkley said with a smile: "The Wizards have changed again. This time it's really a small-ball strategy. Only Boozer is over 2 meters tall. Maggette often guest-plays as a power forward, but rarely starts. He doesn't play well. Good, but Jerry Young gave him full credit."
Smith said: "Scott let Curry continue to be on the bench, and he also played small ball tactics. Curry played 24 minutes on the court, and Mutombo didn't play for 1 minute. The Raptors have had an upsurge of small ball tactics in recent years."
Nets five: Kidd, Kittles, Jackson, Martin, Aaron Williams.
Byron Scott did not sit down after finishing the tactic, standing on the sidelines with his arms crossed, his expression serious.In fact, he was already overjoyed, fantasizing about eliminating the Wizards and how the media would evaluate him after entering the finals.
Scott's playing career was very smooth. He experienced the most brilliant three consecutive championships for the Lakers in the 80s. After retiring, he worked as an assistant coach for several years. In 2000, he became the head coach of the Nets.In the second season, he created a number of firsts in Nets history, was elected the best coach, and this season he also became the coach of the All-Star Game.
Scott usually pays attention to the news and knows the significance of defeating the Wizards.Sending Jordan out at the end of his career and defeating Yang Rui will make more people know him and pay attention to him.As long as the team wins the championship this season, the team will renew his contract with him in the future, and the annual salary will definitely double.
Now, Scott is one of the least paid coaches in the league. The owner of the Nets is stingy, which makes him a little uncomfortable, but this is how a new coach should be treated. When Yang Ruigang joined the Raptors, his salary was not high.
Scott was eager to prove himself and raise his salary, because he was not a star when he was a player, and the commercial value of the NBA in that era was low, and he did not make much money.
Seeing Yang Rui crossed Erlang's legs, put a piece of chocolate into his mouth, and there was milk tea on the chair.Scott finds it a little funny. "Just play it. When the Wizards are 0-2 behind, I'll see if you can play it back at home."
Martin jumps to win and the game begins.
Kidd's dribbling organization, facing the equally strong Wesley, couldn't easily break through with his body.
After Kidd observed the opponent's position, he identified it as a zone defense, dribbled the ball horizontally, and gave it to Jackson on the side.
In the last game, Jackson made 9 of 5 three-pointers, 17 of 9 overall, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 25 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. Scott arranged for him to make more shots.
Jackson faced Maggette, and after one step, he relied on his height advantage to make a pull-up jumper. The shot was very simple and missed under interference.
Boozer blocked Martin and prevented him from rushing, and Jordan protected the backcourt rebound.
The Wizards attacked. Boozer gave Wesley a screen in the middle. Wesley took two steps to the right with the ball, gave the ball to Boozer in the middle, and then started running without the ball with Hamilton.
Boozer, aware of his mission, attracted Martin's defense, looking for someone to match Williams.Jordan was stared at by Jackson on the right side, and Boozer gave the ball to Maggette, who ran from the left bottom line to the top line.
Maggette received the ball and turned to face the frame. Williams was far away, preventing breakthroughs and not throwing.Maggette didn't dribble the ball, and aimed for a dry pull-up mid-range shot. Williams threw out and interfered slowly, and it was too late to take off.
Maggette was well-prepared for this ball, shot easily, and scored! 2 to 0.
Yang Rui smiled and was very relaxed on the sidelines.Boozer is a guy who plays with his head, and that's what he wants.
