Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

Chapter 88 It's a fire!Transforming Ukla's offensive tactics?Morale is high!Upset to second place in the West!

At the press conference, reporters surrounded Lu Yong and asked him to comment on Fratello's coaching level in this game.

Lu Yong's simple perfunctory words did not add insult to injury. Talking less was the last thing he could do for his former colleague Fratello.

Leading the team to lose to the Sonics will definitely cause an uproar in the outside world, and the pressure on Fratello in the near future will reach its peak.

Lu Yong doesn't want to be a villain, and there is no need to suppress Fratello to improve himself. It is clear at a glance whether the coaching level of the two is strong or weak.

Whether it can withstand this wave of public opinion attacks depends on Fratello's ability to withstand pressure.

The next morning, the media reported on the Sonics' narrow victory over the defending champion.

The fans praised Lu Yong one-sidedly, and they fully recognized who was the biggest behind-the-scenes contributor to the Grizzlies' championship last year.

As for Fratello, he was collectively attacked by Memphis fans. He looked a bit decadent during the interview, and he kept silent on the topic of defeat, obviously having nothing to say.

This time he didn't even want to blame the players, because Lu Yong's on-the-spot performance at the critical moment in the last quarter played a decisive role in the game.

Compared with his unchanging employment, it is particularly dazzling. This scapegoat can be regarded as a scapegoat, and he has to bear it if he doesn't.

The Supersonic media published a large number of articles on the Internet that day touting Lu Yong's miraculous employment, giving them a thumbs up and affirming Lu Yong's coaching ability.

"Lu Shuai took the initiative to adjust the lineup. PJ Tucker, a short insider with a height of 1 meters, has become a surprise soldier. The Seattle Storm is sweeping the league and destroying the defending champion!"

"The Grizzlies made mistakes one after another in the last quarter, and the coaching staff who lost Lu Shuai had difficulty adjusting. Can they successfully defend their title in the new season?"

"The Supersonics ranked third in the Western Conference with 8 wins and 3 losses in the start. The team's offense frequently stands out, and the cost is the biggest dark horse of the season."

"The Supersonics without top stars are performing miracles. New coach Lu Yongcheng is the driving force behind it. The hope of returning to the playoffs is no longer slim?"

The unanimous voice of the media made the head coach Lu Yong fiercely angry. On the other hand, the situation of the "champion coach" Fratello is very bad.

Even the Grizzlies players started to complain and didn't say good things in interviews.

The head star Paul Gasol expressed his frustration in an interview after the game. He hoped that the team could hire a coach who is proficient in offense to expand the coaching staff.

It's no wonder that Pau Gasol complained publicly, because he, like coach Fratello, was also attacked by fans after losing to the Sonics.

这场比赛他出战43分钟，18投仅6中，罚球5中4，得到16分8篮板4助攻1封盖，命中率不足35%，发挥失常。

Many fans feel that if Lu Yong hadn't arranged for Gasol an offensive system suitable for him, it would have been difficult for him to win the regular season MVP last season.

The reason is that the Sonics have played the most vicious offensive firepower in the league this year. The current scoring average is second only to the Suns who focus on running and bombing, ranking second in the league, and they may overtake at any time.

It is undoubtedly a blow to this kind of questioning sound in Gasol's ears. He is not sure whether he will be able to die as a Grizzlies in the future.

Maybe one day he will apply to the management for a trade like Kevin Garnett, and team up with other stars to attack the championship.

It is certain that Fratello's coaching level will be questioned by the outside world, because he led the team to win the championship as the Grizzlies coach last season, and his credit and honor are all his. Yong lifted to a height that did not belong to him.

In the parallel world, Fratello led the team without even reaching the finals. The coaching record in the playoffs was 20 wins and 42 losses, with a winning percentage of 32.3%.

When Fratello returns to his career average this year, Grizzlies fans will naturally no longer be satisfied. This is the impersonal reality.

It's not that Fratello's coaching level has suddenly fallen short, it's just that his own ability is limited, and now his reputation and strength are not directly proportional, and sooner or later there will be problems with word of mouth.

After the game with the Grizzlies, everyone in the Sonics flew back to Seattle and got a day off.

With a big wave of his hand, Lu Yong directly arranged for the players to go on vacation. He had just won an elated victory, so he should go home and enjoy it.

Players can relax properly during the regular season, but the coaching staff certainly can't.

The result of the game against the Grizzlies was good, but many problems were exposed in the process.

For example, poor offensive ability in positional battles, the second team has outside shooters but no 3D players with integrated offense and defense, and it is difficult to score after being unable to play defensive counterattacks.

All these require the coaching staff to find a way to solve it, come up with an emergency response plan, and plan for a rainy day.

Taking advantage of the vacation, Lu Yong called Tony Brown, Brooks, and shooting coach Selvin Beasley to the video room, and joined forces with video analysts to discuss solutions to the problem.

No matter how capable the head coach is, it is impossible to solve all the problems alone. There are not a few capable assistant coaches in the league. It just so happens that Tony Brown and Brooks are the kind of talents who have the potential to become excellent coaches.

Lu Yong wanted to hear the opinions of the two of them, so as to avoid being complacent as a time traveler.

During the meeting, Sonic video analyst Leonardo Gray provided Lu Yong with a lot of ideas.

He suggested that the team can disrupt the player's position in the positional battle, imitate the off-ball movement of the triangle offense and divide the players into multiple groups, so as to connect certain players into a line, which is easier to create in defensive games. Scoring chance.

As a player, Leonardo Gray played for the Seattle SuperSonics for three seasons. After retiring, he stayed with the team as a video analyst.

His proposal is very pertinent, and it is also the mainstream idea of ​​this era. Through tactical skinning, new offensive concepts are incorporated to create singles space for players.

After listening to the suggestion, Lu Yong suddenly remembered the famous "Ucla Offensive Tactic", which originated from the NCAA University of Ucla in the United States. During the 17-23 season, he played very aggressively and was unanimously recognized by the media and experts. recognized.

Later, the basketball coach of Ucla University also wrote this tactic into a book, and was eventually brought into the NBA by the Suns coach Monty Williams for the first time. Although he failed to win the championship, he still considered this tactic. Carried forward.

The core system of Eucla's offensive tactics is not complicated. Simply put, the small forward and the center move up to the top of the arc at the same time.

After dismantling, the guard goes down and the center stays in the middle distance to evacuate the penalty area. The forward has three options for attacking the ball. In traditional basketball tactics, the order of the big man cutting down and the small man pulling to the outside to shoot is reversed, making it easier to catch the opponent by surprise.

At present, Ucla's offensive tactics have not been brought into the NBA, because there are very few players in the league who can serve as support forwards.

Lu Yong vaguely has a new offensive idea, but the employment of this offensive system may undergo a hundred million changes, and it is definitely useful as a surprise offensive tactic in a tough battle.

After being carried forward, it may be appointed as the "supersonic offensive tactic" by the outside world like the "Eagle offense" invented by Hubie Brown when he coached the Eagles.

Back at home, the morale of the Sonics was high. They won three of the next four games and averaged more than 110 points per game.

The highest game was a victory over the underdog Bobcats in the Eastern Conference. The Sonics scored 132 points, setting a new high in a single game in the league this season.

Entering the first game in December, the Sonics narrowly beat the Cavaliers 12 to 113 at home. With a record of 109 wins and 12 losses, they rushed to second place in the Western Conference. They really showed their presence in the league.
