"Hello everyone, welcome to the Phoenix Suns and Orlando Magic game brought to you by tnt. I am Charles Barkley, and I am with Kenny Smith."
"Hello everyone, welcome to watch this game. This game is a close and powerful dialogue. I believe it will be very exciting."
The main players of the Suns are still center Steven Hunter, power forward Stoudemire, small forward McGrady, shooting guard Richardson, and point guard Joe Johnson. After 20 games of exploration, D'Antoni gave up.
The idea of letting Eisley play the starting point guard is to put his five strongest players on the court.
The Magic's most common starting lineup is Howard, Josh, Marion, Iguodala and Nash.
Howard and Stoudemire jumped the ball. Both of them are experts at jumping the ball, but in the end it was Howard who moved the ball to his side this time.
After Nash caught the ball, the other four members of the Magic rushed toward the Suns' half like four bullets.
It can be seen that D'Antoni emphasized the need to retreat quickly before the game, but Stoudemire and Hunter were still slow. Josh ran in front of the two of them and went straight to the basket. Nash was the first to get the ball.
Time put the ball in Josh's hands.
After Josh caught the ball, he took a step slower, but took a step forward to pick up the speed again, and then took off directly. He kicked the ground very hard, and the friction between his sneakers and the floor made a harsh "squeak" sound, and Josh bowed in the air.
Lifting his body, he channeled all his strength to his left arm and executed an earth-shattering battle-axe chop.
There was a loud "dang" sound, and the basket rack shook up and down twice. Josh landed on the ground and hit his chest, followed by a roar.
Josh's goal was too sudden. No one thought that the Magic would play such a beautiful offense right after the game started, which would not give face to the Suns at home. Josh's dunk was too overbearing, and "wow~" came from the court.
"With a sound, the spectators sitting near the backboard subconsciously leaned back, as if they were worried that the basketball would hit them.
"This dunk is so beautiful. It's high enough, stretched enough, powerful enough, and crisp enough. It can definitely participate in the dunk contest." Kenny Smith looked at Josh's hook and was filled with admiration. Barkley rarely argued with him, too.
He nodded in agreement, which shows how shocking Josh's dunk was.
Edison off the court whistled, and then said to Thibodeau, "What do I mean, if we fight like this, it may not be hopeless."
Just as Thibodeau was about to refute, Edison immediately interrupted him, "Don't refute, let's see how he performs."
Turning to the Suns' offense, they seemed not to have been affected by Josh's dunk just now. They played very patiently and were not in a hurry to regain the field. Indeed, they have McGrady, Stoudemire and Quentin Richard.
Sen, three guys with excellent physical fitness, as long as they are given a chance, it will be easy for the Magic to give the Magic a more exciting dunk.
After McGrady caught the ball, facing Marion's close defense, he leisurely made a fake shot, and then quickly broke through. Although McGrady is tall, his first step is very fast, although Marion is also the same.
Known for his agility, but facing McGrady's first step, he was still helpless.
After getting rid of Marion, McGrady did not rush towards the Magic basket. After all, the inside line composed of Josh and Howard was already a famous no-fly zone in the league. He made a pull-up jump shot.
Tracy McGrady is most famous for his pull-up jump shot, but his pull-up is also very powerful. The pull-up is more famous only because others cannot do it to his level. His pull-up is the only one in the league.
Yes. McGrady's emergency stop is not like others, his back is not that big, but because of his height and long arms, his shooting point is very high, it is also difficult for defensive players to block the shot...
But no one's shooting percentage from outside will exceed 50%. Although McGrady's shot was very beautiful, it was still a waste.
Howard turned around and pushed Hunter to the outside. Josh on the other side also stepped down, blocking Stoudemire's path to grab the rebound. Of course, Stoudemire didn't want to grab it that much.
This offensive rebound.
Howard steadily received the ball in his arms, and then immediately passed it to Nash outside.
After receiving the ball, Nash didn't even raise his head or look at the players in front of him. He did a urinal gesture commonly used by Marion, pushed with both hands, and sent the ball to the Suns' half.
Iguodala got rid of the big Q Richardson who was guarding him, caught the ball halfway sideways, then took two steps, took three steps from the free throw line, and then made a big windmill with one hand.
"It's so beautiful. These two goals are worth the price of admission. It's so wonderful. But the Suns players retreated too slowly. After McGrady took the shot, Joe Smith and Richardson didn't know to step back.
As a result, the Magic seized the opportunity and played a fast break. In fact, the Suns lost to the Magic in the last away game. The big reason was that they did not retreat in time. Unexpectedly, this problem has not been solved today." Kenny Smith, photo
With a slap in the face, he first praised Iguodala's dunk, and then began to analyze the Suns' problems.
"There's nothing we can do about it. The Suns' players are too lazy. You see in our era, you had to do your best, whether on offense or defense, so that you could get millions in salary. Few people could.
Get a multi-million contract. But now, as long as you can score 20 points per game, even if your defense is no worse, you can easily get a salary of more than 10 million, so the players are not so active." Buck.
Lee began to lament, not knowing whether he was more dissatisfied with the current players or more regretful that he was born at the wrong time and was in a bad situation.
The opening two goals made the Suns players clearly feel that this game was different. If they were not careful, they would lose in a very embarrassing way.
When Stoudemire fired the ball out of the backcourt and passed it to Joe Johnson, everyone in the Magic had already retreated to their own half.
We often say that the main thing to defend against fast breaks is to retreat quickly, and this fast retreat mainly refers to the retreat after scoring a goal. It does not mean that you must return to the three-point line. There is no need to be so exaggerated.
, as long as they return to their own half of the court as soon as possible, the offensive team will give up the fast break.
There is another type of fast break, which is a fast break in which the defensive team grabs a defensive rebound if the shot does not go in. This kind of fast break is more difficult to defend because the offensive team cannot before the rebound is definitely obtained.
Blindly retreating often stays in the frontcourt to see if there is a chance for a second attack, so it is easy to be penetrated by fast breaks.
For example, Iguodala's quick play just now was the latter situation.
In fact, fast break is the simplest tactic with the fewest conditions. As long as you have guaranteed defensive rebounds and a stable backcourt point, a person who can play fast break at high speed can play a very good fast break. Today's diggers
King actually plays this style, which is to play fast breaks, usually with a tactical routine: Miller passes long to Iguodala and goes down quickly; Miller passes long pass to Farid and goes down quickly; Miller passes long pass to McGee and goes down quickly;
Miller makes a long pass to Gallinari... In addition to Miller, the Nuggets have 14 other players. Although it is simple, the actual effect is very good, especially when playing against a weak defensive team.
On the other hand, let me talk about the current Lakers. I am not a Laker blacklist, but I really don’t expect D’Antoni to perform well with the Lakers. Now that the Lakers’ record is not good, D’Antoni has put all his hopes on Nash’s comeback.
But can Nash's comeback really bring about earth-shaking changes?…
When Nash comes back, he will definitely push Duhong down. Let's see what the difference is between Nash and Duhong, and what role they can play.
First of all, let’s talk about positional warfare. The Lakers’ current positional warfare is organized by Kobe. With his strong scoring ability, he uses pick-and-rolls to attract double-teams, and then distributes the ball to teammates. Basically, other teams now use double-player after pick-and-roll.
Double-team Kobe, and the other three players move inside, leaving Artest and Duhong on the outside. Although we see that Artest and Duhong always fail to make long-range shots, and they often miss them. Sometimes they let him adjust for 2 seconds, and they all shoot.
Not going in. But in fact, Duhong's shooting rate is still very impressive, above 40%, and Nash's shooting rate will only increase by another 10 percentage points. If calculated based on 10 shots, that is more than 5 or 6 points, which has little impact.
As for the organization of positional battles, this is difficult to quantify, but I don’t think it will be much better than the inside organization of Gasol during the Lakers’ Triple Crown period. Because Kobe is a player who needs to attack with the ball to maximize his combat effectiveness. You let
Kobe was really too talented to be a pitcher.
Let's talk about Nash's greatest ability, his most unique point in the world, playing fast breaks and organizing fast breaks. As mentioned above, there are three necessary conditions for playing fast breaks, rebounding, long passes and fast passes.
The Lakers have no problem with rebounding right now. They are second in the league. They can grab 5 more rebounds than their opponents in every game. Everyone can imagine this. With Howard and Gasol on the rebounds, the difference is not much different.
As for long passes, the Lakers have no shortage of them. Pau Gasol can do both. After Nash comes back, he can take this to the next level.
The problem now is that the Lakers don't have anyone who can sprint on both ends of the court. Look at the other four starters, Kobe, Ci Shiping, Howard, and Gasol. None of the two outsiders can run and play fast breaks.
Two insiders can't keep up with the second team, and they can't make the fast break three-dimensional. So when Nash was there, we often saw that after Howard gave the ball to Nash, Nash would dribble and rush over alone. As a result,
When I reached the opponent's half, I looked back and saw that all four of my brothers were following behind, slowly walking forward.
Without a fast break player, no matter how good your long passing skill is, it will be of no use.
Any competitive competition within a certain enclosure has two key elements: rhythm and space.
Like basketball, space mainly refers to the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the plane. Vertical space occupation depends on the height, the player's height and bounce; while horizontally, the space must be occupied to the maximum extent, and occupying the plane mainly depends on the player's speed.
Come and run.
There is no one who can run. In fact, this has been a problem for the Lakers for the past two seasons. They have inside players. Before, it was Bynum and Gasol, and now it is Howard and Gasol. There is no problem with height. But the Lakers have no height.
, no speed.
When we watched the three consecutive championships, the Lakers had Shannon Brown and Jordan Farmar. These two people were like two wild dogs running wild as soon as they came on the court and provided speed. But since these two people left
After that, the Lakers never found a player with speed and impact.
So I think there is still no hope for the Lakers this season, unless they change their blood and make personnel adjustments. But the problem is that there are now rumors that Gasol will be exchanged for Stoudemire, so this can only be said to enhance the strength of the New York Knicks.
It can cause further trouble for the Heat, but it will not improve anything for the Lakers themselves.
