But Adrian couldn't help but be surprised that Phil Jackson told him so straightforwardly that he would serve as the tactical core in the next game.
The so-called tactical core means that all the team's tactics will be developed and developed around this person. The rest of the team will revolve around this person, and even things like team building and transactions will have his participation. Because
What the team needs are players who can help him and enhance his abilities.
Of course, trading or anything like that has nothing to do with Adrian. He served as the core of the tactics only during the period when Kobe was injured. When Kobe returns from injury, unless there are any big changes, this tactic will
The core is still Kobe.
However, Adrian didn't expect Phil Jackson to be so decisive and make up his mind so quickly, especially when he had to play pick-and-roll tactics. Adrian couldn't help but feel excited.
With the Los Angeles Lakers, Adrian naturally plays a triangle offensive tactic. Although the triangle offensive tactic has been transformed by Phil Jackson, it has become more suitable for the current Lakers team, especially with the addition of pick-and-rolls and air cuts, and more
Adrian's room for performance is reduced, but in the final analysis, it is still a triangle offense, at most a variant of the triangle offense.
And a pure pick-and-roll tactic?
The root of all offensive tactics in the league is derived from the simplest and most basic pick-and-roll. Therefore, it can be said that the pick-and-roll is the basis of all offensive tactics and the source of all offensive tactics. Naturally, the Spurs' high-post pick-and-roll tactics need not be mentioned again.
Even when the Mavericks' stars play in isolation, they often use pick-and-rolls to create space for their stars to play in isolation. As for their opponent, the Suns, pick-and-rolls and air cuts are the basic routines of a run-and-gun offense.
Playing a pick-and-roll?
Adrian has an almost paranoid obsession with pick-and-rolls. This obsession comes from his more than 20 years of in-depth research on pick-and-roll tactics. He is confident that even if he cannot compare with some head coaches, his research and in-depth understanding of pick-and-rolls are absolutely
Above all players in the league.
After entering the league, he once used the pick-and-roll as his main offensive method. In particular, his physique is very advantageous in pick-and-roll tactics. Facing the point guard is a mismatch. After the pick-and-roll, he has the advantage of facing inside defense.
Bigger. It was only when Phil Jackson emphasized the triangle offense and space in the Los Angeles Lakers that Adrian increased the
He can adapt to the triangle offense and perform well at the point guard position, but in the final analysis, the period when he performed best was when he started to carry out pick-and-roll attacks.
Time, especially the cooperation with Lamar Odom and Kwame Brown in pick-and-roll cuts.
Playing pick-and-rolls is undoubtedly very suitable for me.
Adrian's heart skipped a beat.
Adrian discussed with Phil Jackson in the office for half an hour. This short time was because Adrian found that many of his ideas coincided with Phil Jackson's current ideas. There was almost no relationship between the two.
There is no conflict, except for the small forward. Adrian believes that Luke Walton, who has three-point ability, will be better in the starting lineup, but Phil Jackson gave a different opinion.
At the small forward position, he is going to use Radmanovic!
During this year's All-Star Game, Radmanovic became completely famous.
Of course, he himself had nothing to do with the All-Star Game. During the All-Star Game, Radmanovic flew to Utah for vacation. When he came back, he dislocated his shoulder. He gave an inexplicable answer to the Lakers management.
The reason is: I accidentally stepped on the ice while buying coffee and fell down, causing my shoulder to fall off.
It wouldn't be a big deal if it ended there. It would be an accident at most. But four days later, Radmanovic changed his story and said that he was "condemned by his conscience" because he lied and he was injured.
The reason was that he was injured while skiing in Park City, Utah while on vacation.
The league has clearly stipulated that players are prohibited from engaging in a series of dangerous sports such as skiing and riding motorcycles.
As a result, Radmanovic became famous and became a famous skiing man. Not only did Radmanovic himself incur losses of half a million US dollars, but even the Lakers were greatly affected.
In the latter part of the season, Radmanovic had very few opportunities to play. Mainly because the time when he fell into injury happened to be the time when the Lakers were making great progress. As a result, it was impossible for Phil Jackson to break the already well-established team.
If you have a good team lineup, put Radmanovic into the rotation. Of course, Radmanovic will not be reused.
But now, with Kobe Bryant injured, the Lakers' offensive power, especially the outside attack power, has been severely damaged. Radmanovic's three-pointer is likely to open up the situation for the desolate Lakers outside.
Of course, Radmanovic's own attitude is also an important reason. Although the skiing incident greatly reduced Radmanovic's impression among the public, although he has not been able to play for a period of time, he has not been able to play.
Radmanovic rarely caused any trouble. He has been training diligently and performed well. This made Phil Jackson think about using Radmanovic again.
In Phil Jackson's plan, Radmanovic will share playing time with Trevor Ariza based on team needs. If Radmanovic performs well, Luke Walton may
Was abandoned. This was also Phil Jackson's helpless decision.
You can't say that Luke Walton is a player without ability, but his ability seems a bit too average, and he is a jack-of-all-trades player. Such a player can be the link between the Lakers' lineups when they are in a normal lineup.
The first link is a suitable transfer station between the cooperation of the whole team. But now, with the Lakers lineup suffering heavy losses, what the Lakers need more are those players who are rich in characteristics and can open up the situation.
Naturally, the snake oil of Luke Walton is no longer suitable.
Pick and roll!
Adrian carefully thought about the tactics arranged by Phil Jackson, and his mind gradually came to a clear understanding.
"If this is the case, even if Amare Stoudemire comes back in the next game, as long as we show our strength, it is not impossible for us to defeat the Suns and advance to the Western Conference Finals."
The two did not talk about the Western Conference Finals. Firstly, it seemed a bit too far for the current Lakers. Secondly, with the current Lakers, the two were not sure about defeating the powerful Spurs. Of course, if the Spurs
Although this possibility is extremely small, as long as this possibility comes true, the Warriors will also defeat the Spurs. At that time, the Lakers will not mind sitting on the Western Conference champion position.
Even...a championship.
Afterwards, Adrian returned to the training field with Phil Jackson.
Phil Jackson almost immediately called the assistant coaches and players to arrange the next training tactics.
Pick and roll!
Except for Jordan Farmar, everyone has played in the league for several seasons. It can be seen at a glance that the tactics Phil Jackson focuses on are not their usual triangle offense at all, but the classic
Pick-and-roll tactics. This leaves many players scratching their heads.
Is it possible that we should give up the triangle offense that we often train and switch to a pick-and-roll offense?
When they saw Phil Jackson's lineup layout, everyone was even more surprised!
Odom was named the starter?
Odom has always had the ability to be a starter. However, in order to make up for the lack of offensive ability of the team's bench lineup, the Lakers placed Odom in the bench lineup. His usual playing time is more than 30 minutes. After a season
Everyone is almost used to it,
Especially since the playoffs, the Lakers have been using Kwame Brown and Turiaf as their starting interior linemen, with Odom and Bynum as substitutes. Now that Odom suddenly mentioned the starting lineup, everyone must be surprised.
Fan.
Even Odom himself is a little confused.
But no one questions Phil Jackson. It's just that Jackson's reputation is too loud, and having a championship ring there is a kind of power.
Everyone started a new tactical training under the command of Phil Jackson. Although the current Lakers training tactics almost abandoned the triangle offense, everyone did not feel uncomfortable after accepting it.
It’s really a pick and roll...
This is almost the most basic of all basketball offensive tactics. No matter what kind of tactics a team uses, even if the stars do not arrange tactics, the pick-and-roll will always be played. The pick-and-roll tactic is everything.
The basics of basics, even if you add air cuts, the difficulty of this tactic is actually not high.
Therefore, the Lakers players adapted to the pick-and-roll very quickly. Except for some confusion at the beginning, the players quickly adapted to this offensive method during training.
Then...the power began to show.
The pick-and-roll cooperation between Adrian and Odom has occasionally been reflected in the Lakers' past games. However, due to the requirements of the Lakers' overall tactics, Adrian and Odom do not have many opportunities to cooperate in the pick-and-roll, at least...
…far from what it is now.
Seeing the gradually familiar cooperation between Adrian and Odom, Phil Jackson had a smile on his face. Now, he finally has enough confidence for the game against the Suns. (
