The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 64: hard-edged

The best pocket formation is the one specially designed by the Bucks to deal with Harden before the 2019-20 season was suspended.

The whole league knows that defending Harden is to defend against left and right, that is, interfere with his step-back threes and ask him to break through from the right, but the Bucks execute it more thoroughly and have the best effect.

The zone defense was legal at the time, so the Bucks could place players outside the paint and close their pockets whenever the ball carrier came in.

The 1981 NBA didn't allow zone defense, but it allowed players to keep a certain distance from their opponents and focus on the opponent's core. Maintaining a certain defensive distance can ensure that the defensive situation is still man-to-man, which is not a violation. Paying attention to the core of the opponent is to wait until the core player of the opponent enters the hinterland with the ball, and then collects the pockets uniformly.

Fitch stopped the game again.

He took the tactical board and wanted to draw a pocket formation, but if he knew what a pocket formation was, he would not be confused.

"This tactic is more complicated, so let me do it."

Louie gently took Fitch's tactical board and said, "First of all, we have to adjust the lineup. Bill, you replace Cedric. MLC, you replace Knight."

Hearing that Louis was about to change himself, Maxwell's face was obviously displeased.

But even Fitch didn't have an opinion, and he couldn't say anything.

"Los Angeles likes a one-stack," Louie laughed, "because they have a great Kareem."

"But the difference between their single-stacked formation and the general formation is that Jamal Wilkes will take advantage of the chaos of the position to intersperse and run to catch the ball and shoot in no-man's land." Louis's tactical pen fell. , "MLC, remember that 75% of his offenses are initiated from outside the paint area. I want you to always follow him. No matter what he does, you can't give him open shots. We must not be lazy on the defensive end!"

When he said that, he gave Maxwell one more look - now you know why you came down?

The other party was dissatisfied.

"Randy, keep an eye on Norm Nixon, I want to see if your muscles are useless ornaments!"

Louie began to talk about the key link: "The Lakers' offense always revolves around Kareem. We have to be vigilant about this. After the timeout, Kareem is handed over to Bill to defend, Ralph, use your athletic ability. Clearing the box, Larry, I want you to stay connected to the inside and form a pocket inside with Ralph!"

"The timeout is over, will you fight?" the referee urged dissatisfied.

"Are you done?" Fitch asked.

Louis obediently returned the tactical board: "Do you have anything to add, please."

Fitch's cheeks twitched, what else is there to add? Even a pig could hear what Louis was saying.

He had to fight chicken blood: "If you want to prevent them at any cost, come on!"

"Lu, about the pocket formation..."

"Oh... this is an idea I came up with when I was observing the Lakers' offensive system. I don't know if it will work." Louis was very modest.

The more he is like this, the more Fitch feels that he has been a coach for half his life, and it seems that he is not as good as this 21-year-old.

When the game restarted, Maxwell, who was suddenly replaced, said dissatisfiedly: "What a big deal!"

He really didn't believe that without him, the team would be able to defend against the Lakers' offense.

On the field, Karl showed a lunatic face.

His size isn't the best for Wilkes.

But he had the energy, the energy and the willingness to go after Wilkes. That's enough.

Louis would rather watch Wilkes keep throwing goals over Karl than see Maxwell blow him empty again and again.

Carl is a rascally mad dog.

He chased Wilkes with a stern face, and kept yelling: "You are a dog who can run well, run again! Grandpa likes you to run like this! You run hard, you bastard!"

On the other hand, Ranbir's performance perfectly reflects why Louie calls him a "bad dog."

He really doesn't do anything.

After all, Kareem is an old comrade who has been fighting for many years in the alliance. He stands behind him, scratching his head, and he doesn't do anything in the world.

Randy Smith defends Louie's central idea that the way to keep muscles from turning dead is to use them.

Smith pushed Nixon hard.

The Lakers, who played impressively on the offensive end before, could only return to the opening state and pass the ball to Abdul-Jabbar.

Kareem gets distracted by Ranbir, gets a sky hook and misses.

Seeing what Kareem kept saying, Louie knew that Ranbir had annoyed the old comrade.

"Nice!" He nodded happily.

Maxwell couldn't change his mind just because of one round, he decided it was just luck.

What happens next has nothing to do with luck.

Louis made an offensive gesture, and Bird ran the ball with the "L" tactic to score.

The Lakers wanted to play the offense a little bit more. Nixon dribbled into the paint, as it was before, as long as he came in, he could create chaos and find scoring opportunities.

And now, waiting for him is the Celtics' error-ridden pocket formation.

Although very immature and gave the Lakers a lot of opportunities, with Nixon's height, it is impossible for him to find a passer in this kind of pocket formation.

Waiting for the Lakers, only mistakes.

As Chick Hearn chanted: "Noam stepped on a banana peel!"

The Celtics are using counterattacks to score in a row. The Lakers are good at positional warfare, and they have the most consistent two-point machine in history.

Nixon fell into the Celtics' pockets for several rounds in a row~www.readwn.com~ before realizing that the penalty area was in danger.

No matter how angry Lakers coach Paul Westhead may be, it won't change the situation on the court.

The Lakers' offense ushered in a three-minute ice age.

It was not until Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's tip-up that the points were scored.

But it was quickly responded by Sampson with a jumper farther than the free throw line.

The defensive end was continuously hit by opponents, causing Westhead to call a timeout, but the Lakers have changed from the leading side to the backward side.

Maxwell was dumbfounded.

Louie shouted at the players off the court: "This is the benefit of defense!"

"This kind of thing only happens if you're willing to defend. It's shameful to give up halfway!" Louie shouted. "Remember this feeling! Keep our formation and defensive intensity!"

Fitch felt more and more that Louie was a bit underpowered to be his assistant.

What this guy needs the most is not to play, but to go to a team that allows him to achieve his ambitions.

He can draft, can coach, has a strategic vision, and is quite sensitive to the situation on the court.

21 is indeed too young, but perhaps it is the young that makes it so sharp.

"Bill, won't you say a few words?" K.C. Jones felt that Fitch was strange tonight.

Often stand aside in a daze, eyes empty, do not know what to think.

"Ah...here!" Fitch came to the players and looked like a tyrant again, but the content was just a verbal expansion of what Louis had just said to them.

The content is more, but the spiritual core is the same.

Rhythm master Carl jumped up and yelled, "Go, go and **** the **** in Los Angeles!"
