When the trade between the Bulls and Lakers was announced and the media criticized the Bulls overwhelmingly, Skiles was leading his players to make final preparations before the game.
The top five generals of the Pistons are not given their roles for nothing. In fact, Skiles was very pessimistic about this game.
Before the game, a local Chicago newspaper also made a report comparing the starting players of the Pistons and Bulls.
In the report, the Pistons' five tiger generals scored a total of 459 points, while the Bulls' five tiger generals scored only 398 points.
Each player is calculated as 100. Except for Chen Jie, no one on the Bulls can even score 80 points.
There is no doubt that Chris Duhon and Chauncey Billups, Nocchioni and Rasheed Wallace, Griffin and Prince, these three positions basically have no comparable "sex".
Chandler and Ben Wallace may be pretty evenly matched, but at least neither of them has much offensive ability.
As for Chen Jie, he may be slightly better than Hamilton.
However, being behind the opponent in all three positions, Skiles really doesn’t have much confidence in this game.[
At this moment, he is holding a video tape and analyzing the characteristics of several Pistons players to his players.
The first thing that appeared on the screen was Big Ben Wallace.
Ben Wallace is a rare defensive genius in ten years. His super jumping ability and upper body strength allow him to often take advantage of the basket, so grabbing rebounds is a simple matter for him. Come on.
His outstanding performance after joining the Pistons made the Pistons the best defensive team in the NBA. In the 2001-02 season, Ben Wallace won the Defensive Player of the Year with an astonishing performance of 13 rebounds and 348 hot pots per game.
title. In addition, he ranked first in the league in rebounds and blocks this season. He is as brave as the unshakable "Big Ben". He is the "Jason Kidd" in the rebounding world.
Perhaps, on the offensive end, Ben Wallace will not cause any trouble to the Bulls, but on the defensive end, his iron-blooded defense is an obstacle to the Bulls' offense.
After talking about Ben Wallace, Scales started to explain another Wallace, Rasheed Wallace.
He did not propose how to deal with these players, he was simply explaining the technical characteristics of the Pistons players.
There is no doubt about the offensive power of Rasheed Wallace, the Roaring God. He is familiar with almost all internal offensive methods, low post play, high post breakthrough, baseline dunks, open three-pointers, etc. The entire three-point line is within his offensive range.
What Tianzun is best at is the straight-arm turnaround jump shot from the left and right baselines. Due to the large elevation angle and high release point, the anti-interference performance is very good and the hit rate is also high. Tianzun also has good breakthrough ability, which is often seen
When Tianzun faces the frame, he uses his footsteps to break through some slower-moving insiders, and then ends with a dunk. He also has a shooting rate of about 30% on open three-pointers facing the basket. He has a certain air-cutting ability. He can move with the whole team.
Find the best opportunity to cut in, and have the rare ability to make quick moves in the paint. He can quickly "insert" into the basket while his teammates throw long passes. For a player who is everywhere on the offensive end, it can be said that in a 1v1 state, Tianzun is confident.
Eat up most of the league's insiders. Don't stick to the ball. While attacking, you also observe the movement of your teammates. If the timing of the attack is not good, you can pass the ball as soon as possible.
Of course, he also has his own shortcomings, which are his occasional violent temper and lack of explosive offensive ability.
How to deal with him based on his shortcomings, Scales has not said yet.
After talking about Rasheed Wallace, it’s the little prince Prince.
Although the little prince is 2.06 meters tall, his body is thin, so his offense still relies more on outside shots. He is a good three-point shooter, but his shooting percentage is relatively affected by the interference of the opponent's defensive players.
Large, he is an outside shooter with poor pressure resistance. Although his shot rate is not fast, he can still gain a height advantage in taking off by relying on his height and long arms. The offense at the basket relies more on breakthroughs behind the basket and back to the basket.
His ability in singles is relatively poor. Even after getting inside, he often has to pass the ball out because he cannot turn around. His breakthrough speed is top-notch among players at the same position, and he relies on the first fake move to get rid of his opponent. Comparison of shooting percentages
Stable, reaching over 48%, and the free throw shooting rate is good, over 80%.
However, what Skiles is concerned about is not Prince's offensive ability, but his defensive ability.
Because Skiles predicted that maybe the one the Pistons would send to defend Chen Jie in this game might be Prince.
Since Prince has a pair of super long arms, he has a great height advantage when facing off against opposing players. His movements are simple but effective. For outside shooters, Prince is a nightmare. His long arms
The arm plays a great role in interfering with the opponent's shooting. Facing breakthrough players, it is relatively weak. The disadvantage in footwork will lead to too many fouls. It serves as a rotation in the Pistons' defensive system.
He plays a pivotal role and has a thorough understanding of Brown's defensive philosophy. The little prince averaged only about 2 fouls per game in his career.
With his height and long arms and excellent running and jumping, he can have a clear advantage in the air, but his lack of confrontation ability makes him less likely to fight for rebounds under the basket. He has strong abilities against losers who are far away from the basket.
Control ability, so he can often perform unexpectedly on offensive rebounds.[
From these analyses, we can see that Prince's defense is actually not that terrible.
Chen Jie should still be able to defeat him.
After talking about Prince, Skiles started talking about the Pistons' two-shot perimeter shooter, Billups and Hamilton.
It can be said that these two players are the most terrifying players on the Pistons.
The first is Hamilton. His running and shooting are definitely among the best in the league.
Often, Hamilton can outrun his defender.
Because Hamilton's body is relatively thin and frail, he has average scoring ability inside. He usually likes to break into the interior and cause fouls to the opponent to get free throw opportunities. At the same time, his personal breakthrough ability is average and he mainly relies on teammates' assists and pick-and-rolls when attacking. But it is undeniable that Hamilton
The relatively single offensive method is a very important part of the Pistons' offensive system, and it is also quite suitable for the Pistons' overall tactics.
Hamilton's running ability is undoubtedly a big problem for the Bulls in this game! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian. Your monthly vote is my biggest motivation.
