Chapter 186 Old German Secret Skill Xia Ji Fights!
"Switch directly?" Just as the Thunder were attacking, Harden and Ibaka, who were holding the ball, were doing pick-and-rolls. He suddenly found that the Knicks' defensive players switched directly, and they didn't even bother to go around the pick-and-roll.
Originally, Ibaka rolled after Harden's pick-and-roll, but Douglas, who was marking Harden, jumped directly at Maynor, and Chandler, who was marking Maynor, directly resisted Ibaka.
This switch is so decisive and so fast?
On the field, when Harden was hesitating whether to pass the ball to Ibaka for singles, Lin Yi, who was now facing him, suddenly stretched out his uneasy left hand...
so close! The ball was almost stolen!
Damn it, Lin Yi is such a sinister villain!
Harden had seen Lin Yi's ability to defend the perimeter alone in the summer, so he decisively passed the ball to Durant. At this time, the Knicks player defending Durant was Gallinari.
Gallinari is also 206 cm tall. Although his wingspan is not as exaggerated as Durant's, Durant will be affected to some extent if he wants to forcefully pull.
Of course, Durant, who is ready, is also a master who can ignore you.
But obviously it is more reasonable to choose a breakthrough at this time. I saw Durant changing hands and dribbling. Gallinari, who was defending him, failed to keep up with the first step. Durant successfully broke into the inside...
aha?
Looking at the huge figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, Durant really wanted to curse!
Why is Lin Yi back again?
Durant didn't think too much about it. In his understanding, Lin Yi made up the defense, so Harden must be empty!
So Durant passed out,
This pass doesn't matter, it was passed directly to Knicks guard Douglas!
what's the situation?
Durant even had some doubts, did the Knicks play six people?
Barkley, who was in charge of explaining the game, his eyes lit up, because only God's perspective can see clearly what the Knicks have just done in defense.
After Douglas steals the ball, a one-stop fast break is completed, and the Knicks recover two points!
"The Knicks' defense is interesting," Barkley said.
Kenny Smith also saw some clues, "Their rotation is very fast, but there are also weaknesses, right?"
Barkley nodded. The weakness that Kenny Smith mentioned was Douglas. In such a non-stop rotation, Douglas would always find the opponent's star player. Now it depends on whether the Thunder can read the Knicks' defensive weakness.
It is clear that...
They didn't see it!
So after the Knicks chased 6 points in the second quarter, the Thunder's head coach Brooks decisively requested a timeout.
If the pills go on like this, Brooks has to explain to the players.
Brooks also saw that the Knicks used non-stop rotations to deal with the Thunder, so that the Thunder could only let star players play singles.
...
"How is it? Can you still play?" On the Knicks' bench, Lin Yi looked at the veteran Harrington and said.
The Knicks' infinite defense does have loopholes, and that is Douglas's point. In the future, when the Warriors and the Rockets fight, the two teams will use this trick to deal with each other, and the result forces the opponent to play singles non-stop.
At that time, the Rockets were mainly attacking Curry, while the Warriors were mainly attacking Harden.
Douglas' defense can't match those two.
In order to truly use this set of unlimited defenses, the Knicks must also let veteran Harrington come up. Harrington has height and wingspan, and his feet will suffer from the outside line. But with Lin Yi, the Knicks are not afraid of opponents breaking through.
What the Knicks have to do tonight is to make Durant unable to turn the sky.
Although Durant's scoring has been stable since the beginning of the 2009/10 season, it has been difficult for the Thunder to break through.
In the future, Durant will play more and more efficiently in the Warriors, which is related to the fact that the Warriors have two other perverts on the outside.
To put it simply, it is too difficult for you to rely on one person to kill the opponent. Jordan also has to have Pippen. Although Pippen has been dying due to contract reasons in the latter part of his career, it is indeed an exaggeration to say that the Bulls only rely on Jordan to play. Too much.
It can only be said that the "old rascal" is a pervert, and the impression left on people is too deep, and this impression cannot be erased even after more than ten years.
Harrington looked at Lin Yi: "It's definitely not good to play like this every night, even if I want the last big contract of my career, I can't play like this, but it's okay once or twice once in a while."
Harrington is also a lunatic. None of the Warriors Black Eight gang was a normal person. Starting from Baron Davis, every player has a gangster atmosphere.
After the Thunder suspended, Brooks found that the Knicks replaced Douglas with Harrington.
"Which one of them will play point guard?" Brooks felt that his question seemed a little silly...
Because it's not like the Knicks haven't done it before.
Since D'Antoni coached Lin Yi, he found that his thinking seemed to open up a new world. Sure enough, the coach also had to formulate tactics based on the players and the ingredients to decide what dishes he could finally make.
When coaching Nash, D'Antoni played pick-and-roll and run-and-gun, giving full play to the role of the old man and magnifying the aura of the old man.
Coaching Harden, D'Antoni played singles, using the breakthroughs of Harden and Paul to drive other Rockets players and reduce mistakes.
Coaching Anthony...
Well, this is a world-class problem!
Now because of Lin Yi's particularity, D'Antoni finds that he can now seriously think about many things that he didn't dare to think about before.
D'Antoni is a head coach who loves to keep trying new things, except that he doesn't like to rotate...
After the timeout, the Thunder changed the main attack point, and Harden came to the main attack.
James Harden changed direction in front of a body on the outside, and after shaking Danny Green away, he shot directly from the left middle distance.
Also hit!
Danny Greenben wanted to apologize to his teammates, but Harrington had already sent the baseline!
Lin Yi took a few strides to pass halftime after receiving the ball. He passed the ball directly to Danilo Gallinari. The "Second Battalion Commander" opened fire without waiting for the commander's instructions!
Swish!
Three points hit!
Durant, who was guarding Gallinari, widened his eyes. Are you still one step away from the three-point line?
"The Knicks are not just Lin Ai shooting ultra-long three-pointers...I think this should be the arrangement of Coach D'Antoni?" Kenny Smith couldn't help but joked.
"I can't understand this Knicks now." Barkley didn't know what the Knicks wanted to do.
On the defensive end, Barkley can understand that the unlimited defenses are only giving you the chance of star players to play singles, and not letting the Thunder's three minors drive the performance of your teammates.
But on offense, the Knicks...are a really confusing team.
"That's it, bring up the speed, and then you keep looking for open positions, even if you are facing someone, as long as you feel that the rhythm is good, you will shoot resolutely." The Knicks' lineup is not speeding up with the Thunder, because Westbrook is there.
Without the Turtle, the Thunder's transition offense will be much slower.
In his rookie season, Harden hadn't fully enlightened yet, and occasionally he would perform a one-stop fast break, but after all, with Durant around, even if Harden wanted to play like this, he didn't dare to mess around.
After going to the Rockets in the future, Harden truly released himself.
If the three young players continue to be on the same team, it will be difficult for all three of them to win the MVP.
Because none of the three of them is Clay's pure off-ball style, the reason why Kerr said that Curry and Durant are not fully compatible in the future is also because Durant is a threat who needs to have the ball in his hands. bigger players.
If he is only a spot-up shooter, the strongest player in Lin Yi's mind is Clay.
The Thunder players didn't want to recall the comeback of the Western Conference Finals, because as soon as Klay received the ball, they felt that the ball would go in.
Moreover, the Knicks' bench lineup is stronger than the Thunder's. If they don't speed up at this time, when will it be?
On the court, the Thunder team attacked and hit the iron. Lin Yi grabbed the rebound and threw it straight away. The players of the Thunder team began to doubt life. The Knicks' fast break is so fast?
More than fast!
Danny Green received Lin Yi's pass and didn't go inside at all. He was the water dispenser administrator in the Knicks. He finally got on the court, and the coach did what he said.
At this time, Danny Green is not sure about the three-pointer at a 45-degree angle on the left, but what the coach said is: no matter where you are, throw it to me when you are free.
So what are you waiting for!
Throw it away!
Amidst the panic and stunned retreat of the Thunder players, Danny Green made a fast break three-pointer!
"This is unreasonable!" Brooks felt that he was going crazy. It is true that the Knicks formed a fast break just now, but Durant had already retreated to the Thunder's basket in the first time. To be reasonable, Danny Green just didn't Should it be more reasonable to break through and kill to the basket?
Catch the ball from beyond the arc...just throw it?
Thunder fans at the Ford Center looked at each other.
What kind of tactic is this?
After scoring the goal, Danny Green ran to Lin Yi excitedly, "I scored!"
"Good job!" At the same time, Lin Yi turned around and reminded his teammates again, "It's still the same sentence, whether it's empty or not, throw it when you can!"
Harden, who was still in the Knicks half, heard Lin Yi explain to his teammates.
Fuck!
What kind of tactic is this?
It's a pity that Harden didn't ask the question, otherwise Lin Yi would have replied sincerely: This is Comrade Lao De's secret skill - Xia Ji's bullying!
The Knicks are now a bachelor mentality, and the talent is compared to the lineup with the Thunder?
Go crazy!
Bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes, since they have all come to the court, why are they timid?
Isn't the big deal just hitting 27 irons in a row?
This is not the finals, nor is it the division finals. The Knicks players are relaxed tonight. Lin Yi believes that this Knicks team will not be as bad as the Rockets in the future.
When you get on the court, you have to go all out to fight.
If the Knicks want to win, they have to fight hard. Defense is hard work, rebounding is hard work, and resolute shots are also hard work!
As long as the Thunder's defensive rhythm is disrupted by the Knicks, Lin Yi firmly believes that the Knicks will definitely defeat the Thunder.
Tactics are not fixed in the first place.
Water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. This is the truth.
Resolutely executing the tactics, Lin Yi knew very well where the Thunder team's weaknesses were, and attacked the Thunder team's weaknesses. If he couldn't win, then he was not strong enough.
The reason why the Knicks can win so much this season has something to do with their hard work.
D'Antoni is very relieved. Last year's Knicks were still doing badly, and D'Antoni is afraid that they will continue to do badly this year.
Originally got Lin Yi, what Lao De thought at first was to determine the core of tactics around Lin Yi's first season, and then slowly strengthen it.
But Lao De didn't expect that Lin Yi's character of never admitting defeat would also quietly change the Knicks.
If a team wants to become a championship, it must first have temperament.
