Five Hundred and Sixty-Five. Coach Hollins’ Dream
The speed-enhanced version and the tonnage-weakened version of peak Kirilenko, plus Gasol, who has become better at close range and at the basket after losing weight, paired with Battier, Conley, and Randolph, half a quarter. The defense displayed was terrible!
Due to Sun Ce's progress in assisting defense this season, the coaching staff originally assigned him assisting defense tasks. After all, single defense is really average.
Since Sun Ce is good at assisting in defense and blocking shots, the Grizzlies' defense in this area has been based on the Jazz's defense in the four seasons from 2005 to 2009. Now Sun Ce has exerted the strongest effect.
The Eagles were beaten a little confused in the first half of the quarter, and the offensive end didn't get better in the first half of the quarter.
Because the situation in the game was completely different from what was expected!
The Hawks' offense is not much better than that of the Grizzlies. Although they have changed their head coach, they still play like the Mike Woodson era. They have averaged 97.9 points per game so far this season, which is 1.1 points higher than the Grizzlies. The team's points per game average is third from the bottom, and the Hawks are seventh from the bottom, both below the league average.
The Hawks are a positional defensive team, a standard playoff team. What they are good at is defense. They only concede 93.2 points per game, ranking fourth lowest in the league. Only the Grizzlies, Celtics, and The three Bulls teams conceded fewer points than them.
Before refusing to provide Sun Ce with free tickets last night, the Eagles management communicated with their head coach Larry Drew before refusing to provide Sun Ce with tickets. They wanted to take this opportunity to improve the team's psychology. s things.
The owner of the Hawks is also an idealistic owner, otherwise he would not have made drastic changes in the future after seeing that there was really no hope of winning the championship. First, he directly dismantled the team's lineup that reached the second round and switched to the Spurs system, and he really won the Eastern Conference. No. 1 in the regular season and reached the Eastern Conference Finals.
Then after discovering that the Eastern Conference Finals was the limit, he once again dismantled the lineup and started again. It was very courageous, but he was not very lucky. He was killed by Zhan Badong in the most peak years.
Originally, even if there was a conflict with an opponent, such as when Sun Ce refuted the nickname "Modern Jordan" when asked by reporters this time, most teams would not refuse to provide tickets to the opponent's players, thus saving thousands of dollars. Regarding the knife, let alone the tragic situation that the Clippers may encounter, what if there is a chance to acquire this player in the future?
But after communicating with the head coach, the Eagles management felt that it needed to do this. It needed to take this opportunity to stimulate the players of its own team, and it was also an opportunity to stimulate the ball market.
Coach Larry Drew also agreed. He is similar to Coach Hollins. Before becoming the head coach, he had been an assistant coach for the Eagles for many years. He knows the situation of the team. This team has grown from the star player Joe -Johnson begins,
There is no vitality at all.
They are a team full of talented young players. Except for Bibby and Jamal Crawford, who are over 30, the other seven main rotation players are all under 30 years old. Joe Johnson has to play all season. He is only 30 years old, but he doesn't have the vitality that a young team should have.
Larry Drew knows that maintaining the status quo and making it to the second round will not be better than when Mike Woodson was there. He was swept in the second round in the past two years and did not win two games this year. , his handsome position is not stable either.
Larry Drew and the management unanimously decided to use Sun Ce to stimulate the players in the team. They also deliberately released the news to create this topic, which can not only stimulate their own team players, but also stimulate the ball market, killing two birds with one stone.
However, after doing this, Larry Drew was also ready for Sun Ce's explosion.
Sun Ce was known for his ability to retaliate. People would get angry once a year, or even once in a lifetime, but he would get angry at the slightest disagreement.
Larry Drew is not afraid of Sun Ce's possible explosion. They are not the Warriors, nor are they the Bulls who didn't have Thibodeau last season. If Sun Ce wants to get 40+ or 50+ by relying on his personal ability, he can't wait to have their Although not famous for their defense, their defense has ranked among the top ten in the league since the 2006-2007 season. Last season, their overall defensive efficiency ranked fifth in the league, just ahead of the Grizzlies.
They carefully prepared their defense against Sun Ce this morning and were ready to snipe Sun Ce when he broke out.
During the game, their defense was really good. Horford's contraction at the basket, Josh Smith's mid-range defense, and pressure from the outside were also exerted. Who knew that Sun Ce's explosive point was completely unexpected, and Sun Ce's half He only made two shots in the quarter, and only made a counterattack dunk. The other two mid-range shots were solid, but he broke out on the defensive end!
Originally, their offense was not very good, and they were directly locked up by the Grizzlies!
Larry Drew was beaten a little confused and didn't call a timeout for half a quarter. This is not a rare thing. Head coaches are often confused.
At the official timeout, Larry Drew finally realized that he wanted to make a substitution and quickly replaced Jamal Crawford...
…
On the Grizzlies side, it may be due to the influence of Tony Allen. The more ferocious the Grizzlies play, the more energetic they are, preventing the opponent from scoring, and it feels good not to score on their own side.
Seeing Tony Allen, who was about to play, pulling Sun Ce, Paul George, Yi Jianlian, and DeAndre Jordan to discuss defensive details, Coach Hollins felt that he had found the most suitable defensive method for Sun Ce, using his mobility to connect the defense together!
From the perspective of coach Hollins, Sun Ce's defense is not so much like Kirilenko's, but most of them are not. He is more like a mini version of Garnett, and a point guard version of Garnett. The defenses are all connected!
Kirilenko's ability to defend in series is also good, but his ability to utilize his teammates is not as good as Sun Ce. Sun Ce combines Kirilenko's ability to assist defense with his own ability to utilize his teammates better!
Originally, their defensive efficiency ranked first in the league this season. Sun Ce's outburst, if sufficient preparations were made before the game, it is really possible that the Eagles, a team with poor offense, could not score in double figures in a single quarter!
However, in this situation, Coach Hollins doesn’t know whether to be happy or have other thoughts. At the beginning of the season, his goal was to balance the offense and defense. Good guy, now he is going to "I'll kill you for nothing." Never again.
But even if Sun Ce just broke out out of anger today, Coach Hollins has to let Sun Ce develop in this direction! Talents and characteristics have been demonstrated, and it would be foolish not to cultivate them.
But the dream of "balanced offense and defense" feels far away for Coach Hollins...
…
The referee signaled that the game was about to restart and the two teams made substitutions.
The Grizzlies sent out a lineup of Sun Ce, Tony Allen, Paul George, Yi Jianlian, and DeAndre Jordan.
The Hawks fielded a lineup of Jeff Teague, Jamal Crawford, Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, and Al Horford.
Teague looked at the opponent's perimeter combination and felt his scalp numb. Last season, he made his first appearance in the game. The opponent was the Celtics, and he met Tony Allen who came on the bench. That night... he simply didn't like it. Dare to think back!
Just now I saw Sun Ce's defense on the sidelines. Oh my god, the entire three-second zone was completely covered. Even Josh Smith was hit by a frontal hit. What a hammer!
Especially when he thought of his nickname of "Little Lord", Teague became even more desperate. The guy opposite was like an angry bear, and he couldn't be targeted to death by that guy!
Although he is a rookie in the same class, the gap between the rookies in the same class is huge. He Teague did not even enter the top ten point guards in 2009. Although he has shown potential this season, he only averaged 6.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. , his role is to help with counterattacks when rotating the lineup. Because of his excellent assault ability and ball distribution ability in transition attacks, he was nicknamed "Little Lord".
Teague thought that Curry, the third best point guard in his class, was beaten like that by Sun Ce, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet.
Joe Johnson was also surprised by Sun Ce's defense, and at the same time he was surprised by the ability of the head coach. There really was no change at all on the offensive end. Fortunately, Larry Drew's defensive coaching ability inherited from Mike Woodson, and Mike - Woodson's defense is well learned and well laid out.
But they don’t attack...
But even if the situation tonight was unexpected, the preparation before the game was in vain, and he was defended, but Joe Johnson did not panic. The game is still long, so just take your time to sharpen your defense.
Being calm in any situation is Joe Johnson's strength.
Sun Ce is very happy now. It turns out that defense can be so good!
Although I usually average 3+ blocks per game, I don't improve the team's defense that much. Tonight's two blocks at the beginning really ruined the opponent's offense. In the first half of the quarter, the opponent only had two sports goals, and only allowed the opponent half of the quarter. Scored 7 points, if Randolph and Conley hadn't each fouled the opponent's shooting, and the opponent made 3 of 4 free throws, and had to defend the opponent to despair, this feeling - really cool.
Taking advantage of the current ability evaluation, Sun Ce is ready to take precautions! Especially for Joe Johnson!
No matter how good the opponent's defense is, Sun Ce knows that he may not be able to score too many points. In this case, let's let Joe Johnson not score a few points and hurt each other!
The timeout ends and the Eagles attack.
Teacher Tony and little brother Pickle came up, and Sun Ce's single defense pressure was relieved, and he defended against Teague who was advancing.
This is the arrangement of the coaching staff to maximize Sun Ce's defensive capabilities.
Teague saw that it was Sun Ce who was guarding him and immediately passed the ball to Jamal Crawford.
Teacher Tony defended Jamal Crawford.
Jamal Crawford, who is usually very arrogant, couldn't be arrogant when he met Tony Allen. His best change of direction was met by Tony Allen's collision defense, and he could only force his way to the mid-range. Emergency stop shot...missed!
Josh Smith was about to grab the offensive rebound when he found that Yi Jianlian didn't make any move to grab the rebound. He was simply blocked. Then he saw Sun Ce floating by and taking away the rebound...
