Although the Wizards' defense has various problems, there is really nothing to say about their offense.
Arenas, who is good at jump shots, Larry Hughes, who is good at breakthroughs, and Jamison, who is versatile in skills, have stabilized the Wizards' offensive firepower. In addition, Haywood and Jeffries can rush for offensive rebounds.
For those who carry out the second offense, the Wizards' offensive routine can be said to be comprehensive and very three-dimensional. I have never understood why they gave up Hughes in the first place and chose Butler instead.
Jamison's body is a perfect small forward template. After Butler came, he forced Jamison to the power forward position. Although technically there is no problem, his height and tonnage have natural shortcomings in the interior.
On the offensive end or the defensive end.
What affects Jamison's performance is not the most important thing. The key is that although Butler is a small forward, he likes to stay inside and occupy the space between the three-second line and the three-point line. This will affect Arenas' performance.
play.
How did Arenas' knee injury come about? In addition to his excessive and unscientific training, he made too many sudden stops and changes in direction on the court, and the damage to his knees caused by his sudden sudden stops was obvious.
The reason why he makes so many emergency stops is that there is not enough space in the opponent's interior. As soon as he enters, he will encounter the opponent's big man to cover up the defense, and there is no way to force him to make emergency stops and jump shots. So let's look at Butler's arrival in 2005.
After that, Arenas' shooting percentage still dropped and his mistakes began to increase. Although their Big Three looked good, they were actually quite unreasonable.
Compared to Hughes, the characteristics of Hughes are much more complementary to Arenas. Everyone knows that Hughes' scoring method is breakthrough, so when Hughes holds the ball, the opponent's defense will shrink in and let him break through.
At this time, the space between the inside and outside players is larger. Once the ball reaches Arenas, as long as he gets rid of the defensive players in front of him, there will be a relatively open space, and he will not need to jump shot.
You can stop in a hurry or slow down, and the opponent's inside line will not be able to pounce. This reduces the burden on the knees and indirectly protects the knees.
For a similar example, we can look at the Bulls' Rose. They also found Boozer, who likes to grab the middle of three seconds and three-pointers. Then Rose began to suffer from injuries, because this kind of player will increase the difficulty of his offense.
.There is also Jeremy Lin, whom everyone is familiar with. He performed very well when Anthony was away, but when Anthony came back, the space for him to adjust was gone, and he suddenly withered.
Therefore, this kind of player who can catch the ball from the wing in the three-second zone and play with his back is a nightmare for his own breakthrough defender. So if Gerald Wallace continues to play like this, I will wait for news about the injury of the Nets guard.
.
If I were the manager of the Wizards, I would not want Butler and try to get Crawford over. This guy's breakthrough ability is also incredible, only better than that of Hughes, and he can also shoot from the outside. Although his defense is not as good as Hughes'
Si, but it is not a colander. The most important thing is that it is cheap.
Let's get back to the game.
Arenas of the Wizards dribbled the ball past half court without asking for a screen. Facing Nash's defense, he ducked sideways, then shifted into gear and accelerated. Nash passed by without giving Nash time to react.
If you turn around, you can only eat ashes from behind his butt.
Breaking through Nash does not mean that the Magic's defensive system has been solved. After a season of careful training, no, careful teaching by Thibodeau, the Magic's current defense is very layered.
The three outside lines serve as the first shield. Their main job is to prevent the opponent's mid-range and long-range shots. As for breakthroughs, they have to do what they can. According to Thibodeau's words, "They are not required to be able to block the opponent's breakthrough, but they must delay the opponent's breakthrough."
The forward speed creates time for inside defense.”….
But later everyone thought that this sentence was mainly meant for Nash and Martin. The Magic's other outsiders are also good at defense. As long as they don't encounter the superstar level, they can probably do it on the outside.
a result.
Then there are the two iron-blooded insiders. The Magic's insiders are very flexible, whether it is Howard and Josh, or Varejao or Wallace. They are very active in defense, and several of them have very good foot speed.
, unlike Yao Ming who knows how to help defend and make up for defense, but it is always too late. As long as they delay the opponent a little from the outside, they can effectively make up for the defense, whether it is a collision or a block. And the two insiders are not
There are also high and low levels of standing parallel to the baseline. One is lifted up a little, and the other is strictly guarding the basket, so that when the opponent breaks through from the front or from the wing, they can take turns to go up. After the high power forward goes up, the center goes to the basket.
, covering for him to prevent the opponent from breaking through and another person to cut to the basket. If the opponent's player does not pass and makes a hard breakthrough, then he will have to face two Magic insiders in a row. How many people in the league can break through a one-on-three?
Of course, there are gains and losses. The biggest problem with this high-altitude misplaced defensive strategy is that it takes time to turn one side up and come back, and it is easy for the opponent to slip to the baseline for a layup. However, the player who defends the Magic's baseline is usually Iguoda.
La, Marion, Wallace and others, if you and these people slip the line, you will step on the line if a few of your brothers nudge them in the stomach.
But as the saying goes, you can't have your cake and eat it too. There is also an obvious problem in the Magic's defense. That is, the flexibility and height of the inside are sufficient (although these guys are average in height, they have high jumping height), but
Not hard enough. Josh is a bit better. As long as he doesn't encounter a pseudo-center like Duncan, his physical fitness will generally not suffer. However, Howard and Varejao are a bit lacking in protecting the basket.
Howard's lower limb strength is actually not that bad, it's just that it's relatively weak compared to his upper limbs, but he can't do it when he's facing someone weighing more than 120 kilograms. If the opponent also has a small hook or something, it can make him miserable.
Unfortunately, although there are not many good inside hookers in the league, there are many hookers weighing more than 120 kilograms all over the street. Every team has one. It is said that this tradition is similar to the 1972 Uruguay rugby team went to Chile to compete.
A passenger plane crashed into the Andes Mountains at a height of 4,000 meters, and the 16 survivors lived by eating the flesh of the victims. This is also the reason why most people like to make friends with people who are fatter than themselves.
Varejao is similar to Howard. He is older than Howard, has better skeletal and muscle development, and has a slight advantage in height and weight. However, his strength is not good enough in the league, but fortunately he has developed a skill in Barcelona.
With his ability to dive, most people wouldn't dare to make big moves when playing alone.
But if people just find a meat ball to attack the basket, there is no way. Now Edison and others can only make the outside line pay attention to contracting double teams at any time, reduce the burden on the inside line, and make up for it once. But when encountering the Spurs,
For a team with strong tactical execution, double-teaming the inside will expose the space on the outside. There is really no way around this, after all, no one is perfect.
Back to the game again.
After Arenas broke through Nash, Josh did not give him any room to prepare for a shot and immediately blocked him. Josh, with his arms raised high, blocked Arenas like a mountain.
Arenas looked at it and said in his mind, "That's so fast." Arenas has encountered many situations where he was blocked by an inside line, but there are really not many people who are as fast as Josh.
Although he was secretly surprised, who is Arenas? If he cared about this, he would not be a general.
After shaking Josh for a moment with a cross-step, he pulled the ball back. Before Nash could return to defense, Dare put some force with his foot, jumped up lightly, and then took the shot. The ball was flying very fast, and Arena could see that
Si's wrist was very strong, and then with a "swish" sound, he hit the net cleanly. Arenas's action was very easy and skillful. In his usual training, he has done it tens of thousands of times.
Similar actions...
The two teams tied 2-2.
After landing, Arenas looked back and realized that he had been a little anxious and overthinking it. Nash was still stepping on the three-point line, which was still more than 2 meters away from him.
"Both sides scored the first goal, and both reflected their own offensive characteristics." Yu Jia from ccv5 began to speak after the ball was scored.
"Hey~ (second sound), that's right. We looked at the Magic's offense just now. It was very smooth. Starting from the pick-and-roll, Nash passed to Josh in the high post, and then he slipped to the baseline. Josh passed the ball back. This is what we often do
It's a high status. On the other hand, when you look at the Wizards' offense, it's very simple. Arenas takes the ball and shoots, without any cover or coordination. He just relies on his personal strength." Everyone knows who is speaking.
.
The two people were still analyzing, and Nash on the court was like a little whirlwind, and he hit the ball into the Wizards' half.
Although Edison emphasized the need to play faster before the game, Nash did not do so because the Wizards' current defensive formation is very good. If they suddenly play faster, they will easily make mistakes. This is why we often say that a good point guard is the ball
The team's second coach, because the coach cannot call timeouts and arrange tactics at any time, and good point guards and their ability to read the game can make up for this problem.
So Nash slowly patted the ball at the top of the arc without any intention of attacking, while other Magic players began to run around.
Suddenly Nash moved. Instead of breaking through, he threw the ball into the air with one hand. Arenas, who is also a defender, knew that something was wrong when he saw Nash's action.
Josh and Marion crossed paths, leading the two Wizards defensive players to the baseline. Along the left paint line, there was a wide open area to Nash. Marion accelerated with his feet, rushed directly to the basket, and then jumped into the air.
He caught the ball with both hands and pushed the ball into the basket with a stone-throwing motion.
"shawn~~~marion!!!" DJ shouted, and the Magic fans in the audience were also extremely excited, shouting "yeah".
Wizards head coach Eddie Jordan saw the ball and shouted and clapped his hands on the sidelines, reminding the players to focus.
Edison looked at it with a contemptuous smile, and then said to Thibodeau next to him, "You don't pay attention to defense in your usual tactical training, and you expect that you can improve your defensive efficiency by reminding you on the spot? It's too naive. Let him see what real team defense is."
"After speaking, Edison blew a whistle towards the court and reminded the players to pay attention to the quality of defense.
But after the Wizards made a simple internal and external pass, Arenas, who received Haywood's return pass, didn't even look at Nash in front of him. He directly shot a three-pointer and scored .4-5. The Wizards took the lead.
Arenas' scoring process was very fast and sudden, but there was no fireworks at all. Although the game was unscientific, everyone felt that Arenas' shot was very reasonable.
This is also the scariest thing about Arenas. His confidence has overflowed and can influence the people around him, making his teammates play more boldly, his opponents more guilty, and his fans more crazy. This is a bit like the feeling when Jordan came back.
People think that if Jordan passes the ball to me, I will definitely make it.
