During the halftime break, Edison looked a little distracted when he saw the players. He didn't know his last name, so he turned on his hair dryer again.
"The game is over, right? We beat our opponent by 30 points. Have you forgotten how we played against the Pacers in the last game? Now you are starting to relax again. Howard, look at how much O'Neal has got now.
Points, 13 points, he only played so many minutes in total, and you are still laughing here. Iguodala, you made 4 turnovers today, more rebounds and assists than you did. Boris, too, made 3 of 8 shots.
, the hit rate is less than 40%. I am on tenterhooks now, but you guys are really relaxed."
When the Magic players saw that Edison was angry, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they put away their smiles on the surface.
Edison also knew that just yelling at them would have no meaning at all. Over time, it would make them rebel. The key to yelling was to make them refocus their attention on the game.
"Next, I will arrange the tactics for the second half. The third quarter is very critical in my opinion. We must grasp two points. If O'Neal is on the court, then continue to engage him. If he is not on the court, then we must strengthen the three points.
Extraordinary long shots. According to the Pacers' previous games, Carlisle's defensive focus in the third quarter was to close the inside line and leave more space outside. So in the third quarter, Nash's appearance is completely opposite to that of O'Neal. You have to do
Be prepared."
There will never be too many tactical arrangements in basketball. It is just a big idea. It cannot be as comprehensive and detailed as football. Because no matter how good your arrangement is, your efforts will be in vain if someone makes a substitution. Therefore, the tactics are generally arranged in detail.
It's just a specific arrangement of offense and defense, such as the last minute of the fourth quarter. Anything more is pure nonsense.
After the start of the third quarter, the Pacers' O'Neal Jr. appeared on the court again. He has now committed three fouls. He played the entire first quarter but only played less than 5 minutes in the second quarter.
As soon as he came on the court, Edison immediately replaced Nash and Howard and replaced them with Martin and Varejao.
He knew that Carlisle must have made arrangements for Iguodala to rape him, but he couldn't figure out how he would arrange it and who would take the bullet for him. So he replaced two people, Martin, to disrupt Carlisle's arrangement.
Martin's breakthrough ability is not good, much worse than that of Iguodala, but his ability to draw fouls is absolutely top-notch. According to legend, Martin's family has an ancestral motto, "Not drawing fouls on the court is equivalent to a mistake."
Iguodala's foul is to rush into your arms and then forcefully collide with you. Because the NBA now encourages offense, any extra movement on the part of the defensive player is considered a foul. But this thing is very dangerous.
If someone is really upset and gives you a hard blow, then you may be completely miserable. Although the playing field is not on a concrete floor, if you fall hard, something will happen.
Not so with Martin. He never hits hard, but is very clever. His fouls are based on three points.
First: He is thin and tall. He flies immediately when he comes into contact with others. Even if he is not flying, his body is extremely twisted. The referee also has a fleshy heart. Seeing him so miserable, it is inevitable that he will feel compassion. Of course this
You can only use it three times in a game. Isn't it true that three things are enough?
Second: His fake moves are particularly good. First of all, Martin's physical condition is also very good. He can run and jump, which many white players do not have, but he is not good at physical confrontation. His start and emergency stop are very sudden, and he can
Disrupting the opponent's defensive rhythm, defensive players will panic when the rhythm is disrupted, and it is easy to make unnecessary movements with their hands. Secondly, Martin has the ability to shoot, so his shooting credibility is high, and there are always some in the league.
His shooting posture is very weird. In his shooting posture, one hand is bent in a weird way, where the hand is in contact with the basketball.
It’s also very strange, very close to the bottom. But among the earthlings in the league, Martin and Prince’s shooting postures are the most unique. (PS: Marion is not an earthling, he is a Martian.) Because of the weird posture
, so the players who defend him will easily become sensitive and easily deceived, or some blocking actions that they would not normally come into contact with will come into contact when they encounter him...
But this is not over yet. Martin's fake moves are not limited to technical basketball moves. He not only deceives players but also deceives referees. There are currently four people in the league who are the best at making fouls, Ginobili, Harden, Martin and Wade.
Virtue means that they are too fast and too fierce, and they can't defend themselves and can only commit fouls, but the first three are all proficient in diving. All three of them are at the level of movie stars. They are not like some people who do fake things very much, and their body is very straight when they fall.
, there is something wrong with it at first glance. When they fell, they pretended to struggle and twisted their bodies. It looked like they fell very hard. But Martin was still a little worse than the first two. The top two dared to fall without contact.
Martin is not that thick-skinned.
Third: and the most critical point, you just have the skills, you also have to dare to charge. Martin may not look at him as thin, but he is really not afraid of death, he really dares to go inside, and then look for the big black man inside.
Don't even think about it. Why don't you, the referee, give you a foul?
If Martin is a master of drawing fouls on offense, then Varejao is a master of drawing fouls on defense.
There are two ways for Varejao to cause fouls on defense. The first is to block the position in advance and make offensive fouls normally. Varejao has a good prediction of the ball path, and he is very fast with his feet and willing to help others to cover their positions, so he
He can often make up for the weak side immediately, appear in the opponent's forward line, and cause the opponent to collide. Second: diving. As for Varejao's diving ability, I will only say one thing, if he has not entered the A team,
Then, you should all understand, no need to explain.
As soon as these two came on the stage, they immediately followed Edison's instructions and rushed towards Little O'Neal.
First, Martin forced past Miller, and then he twisted and pressed against O'Neal. O'Neal also knew that this guy had no good intentions, but when someone came to him, he couldn't avoid him and let him pass. But he also left a
Xinyan, his arms were stretched as high as he could, but his feet were firmly planted and he didn't move.
Martin was very smart. He saw it at a glance and thought, "You are too naive to still want to commit an offensive foul on me." O'Neal Jr. didn't move his lower body. With Martin's flexibility, it was easy to get around him, but he didn't do that.
Do.
Martin came to O'Neal Jr., stopped suddenly, and then jumped up to shoot without any backward movement in the air. He just tempted O'Neal to see if he could take off or not.
At this time, O'Neal Jr. had no choice but to jump up and block the shot, but he still stretched his arm straight without any pulling movements, allowing the referee to see clearly. Therefore, although Martin's shot went in,
But it did not cause O'Neal's foul.
On the other hand, O'Neal Jr. was also very annoyed. He, an All-Star player, was bullied by you, a rookie, so he quickened his pace and rushed to the Magic's inside, stuck out his butt and started to claim position.
When substitute point guard Anthony Johnson saw that his elder brother was taking the position, he quickly lobbed the ball into the penalty area.
O'Neal leaned on Varejao and started to hit him with his back. Because the two had never played against each other before, and Varejao was a white player, O'Neal didn't think he would be very tough, so he started to use his back a few times tentatively.
Varejao, on the other hand, kept putting his fists on O'Neal's back from behind, and his knees pushed against his thighs from time to time.
Little O'Neal leaned on it twice and found that he couldn't move. He knew that the guy behind him had good strength, and his small movements were too annoying, so he moved a little too hard if he leaned on it again.
We have said before that when a person exerts force, the first step is to move the shoulders. When you are facing the outside frame or pointing at someone behind the basket, you can also do a fake movement of the shoulders, and then rely on the abdominal muscles to pull back.
But this kind of back-and-forth play under the basket requires strength. Every move is a head-to-head collision, and there is no virtuality at all, so there is no possibility of fake movements on the shoulders...
Varejao saw that O'Neal's shoulders were moving and his back was arching, and he knew it was coming. But at this time, he didn't flop because no one would believe him if he did, but O'Neal immediately gave him a break.
a chance.
Because O'Neal was a little angry, he hit Varejao and turned around with his arms higher, exposing his elbows. When Varejao saw it, he quickly hid his face behind his big arms.
Then he sent it upwards. As soon as he made contact, he said "ah", his back straightened and he fell backwards, and then he sat on the ground.
"Beep~" the referee's whistle sounded. At this time, O'Neal was still hanging on the basket, "Black No. 7, offensive foul."
After O'Neal came down, he shook his arm angrily, then looked at the referee with an aggrieved look, "Why?"
The referee slapped his elbow, and O'Neal hugged his head speechlessly. The Pacers' coach Carlisle also yelled off the court, complaining about his players. The linesman quickly came to him
Next to him, he was given a warning. The home fans were also very dissatisfied with the penalty and collectively booed. But the referee was unmoved. He felt that he saw it clearly, and the Varejao who fell on the ground was Varejao.
Living proof.
At this time, Varejao was pulled up by Dior and Hill, and veteran Hill patted his butt, which meant "good job."
At the beginning of the third quarter, O'Neal Jr. committed four fouls. Carlisle frowned and thought, "This game is difficult to play." But he did not replace O'Neal Jr. because of this, because if he replaced him, the Pacers would
Who will guide the offense? If there is no one to guide the Pacers on the bench, they will definitely be beaten by the Magic, and then the fourth quarter will enter garbage time early. And now among the main players, he has the most physical fitness, and Captain Jack has almost played all the games.
The first two sections are really unplayable.
Although the old Miller is already on the court, he is not the same Miller who played against the Flyers before. He now needs the cooperation of others. If O'Neal Jr. is replaced by Miller, who will he cooperate with.
At this time, Carlisle turned his head and glanced at the audience. Artest was sitting there in a formal suit. His whole body was full of muscles, and his suit was bulging, like a pair of armor.
"It would be great if you were still on the team. I wouldn't be as worried as I am now. The same goes for Bird. He knew this was the case, but he didn't do anything when the trade deadline was coming."
Carlyle's idea also corresponds to an old saying, "When a country is in danger, you must think of good ministers; when a country is in danger, you must think of good generals."
