106 Chapter 106. Cavalry Tactics Appear Again
106 Chapter 106. Cavalry tactics appear again
9 to 14, the Eagles had a bad start and replaced Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Chris Crawford, Newbell, and Muhammad.
Amidst the boos of the Portland fans, Liu Mang appeared on the stage.
In the eyes of Portland fans, the Lakers are equal to Kobe plus O'Neal, roughly equal to Kobe.
Lakers?
Fuck it!
But the Portland fans certainly didn't expect that their boos made Liu Mang more confident!
So whoever said it well, the more the opponent fans are afraid of you, the louder they will boo you!
After Liu Mang came up, the task was very heavy. He came up to rush to overtake the score. The Eagles had 5 games in the Western Expedition. If they don’t win three of them, it is difficult to guarantee that they can continue to stay in the top four in the Eastern Conference. A strong team like this that has gone into decline must be won.
Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt amidst the boos, and just after halftime, the little flying mouse came up to defend.
Just like Liu Mang relying on his speed advantage, he is not afraid of losing his position and sticks to the defense at will. Little Flying Mouse Stoudemire has always played by speed. The standard is short and strong, only 1.78 meters, and he is still tall in shoes.
"Damon Stoudemire, ability value 77, offense 82, defense 68, strength 70, speed 96..."
I have to say that this kind of defense is very troublesome. Liu Mang passed the ball to Jason Terry who came up to meet him.
In the pre-match preparations, the Eagles made targeted preparations on the offensive end, but the starting lineup failed to show their own characteristics, and it was useless to prepare.
Liu Mang, as the best scorer on the bench here, also has a special change in his style of play.
Attack without the ball!
The two starting scorers can't play off the ball, because the others' organizational and scoring abilities are average, and they can't complete the role of opening up space to attract defense.
But Liu Mang's second lineup was different after he came up.
The Blazers came back from a timeout with Flying Squirrel, Kobe finisher Ruben Patterson, Pippen, Fat Rainman Sean Kemp, and Rasheed Wallace.
Jason Terry singled Ruben Patterson with the ball in the top arc, Liu Mang ran around with the flying mouse, and after Chris Crawford gave Liu Mang an off-ball pick-and-roll, the Blazers chose to switch defenses and followed Next to Liu Mang is Pippen.
really!
Liu Mang saw the opponent change defense, and his pre-match prediction was correct! Even if the Blazers changed their head coach this year, the defensive characteristics of the previous few years are still there! Just switch defenses when you encounter a pick-and-roll!
A few years ago, when Pippen was not so old and Dale Davis could still play 40 minutes a game, switching defenses when encountering pick-and-rolls was the biggest and most effective defensive feature of the Blazers' defensive end.
But now, seeing that it was Pippen who was switching defenses, Liu Mang immediately made an emergency stop and got up again, bypassing the basket, Muhammad blocked Pippen, and Liu Mang was completely empty when he ran to the right corner !
Rasheed Wallace and Sean Kemp stare like they're wondering why don't you go out and help?
It's good that Jason Terry really wanted to pass the ball. When Liu Mang just got to the bottom corner, he passed the ball decisively. Liu Mang caught the ball from the bottom corner and made a three-pointer!
"swish"
An unguarded three-pointer!
When the Eagles had two shots on the outside that could be called sharp shooters in this era, the Blazers did not dare to shrink with four players! This allows Liu Mang to make good use of his teammates' off-ball pick-and-rolls!
The Blazers attack, and Pippen advances and passes to Sean Kemp, who is about to get to the basket.
Newbell looked miserable, how could he guard against this big lump of meat!
Sean Kemp, nicknamed Rain Man, was a violent dunker who was no less than the future Blake Griffin in the early stages of his career. After the lockout, like Wen Baker, another insider of the Supersonics, he became a big fat man.
The rain man who came to the Blazers has completely become a meatball, unable to jump at all, slow and poor in physical fitness.
But meat balls have the advantage of meat balls, that is, his ability to eat alone has become stronger than ever! Let him run slowly, to get to the position and receive the ball, it will be very difficult to guard.
Newbell was basically unable to make substantial resistance and was hit by the rain man into the basket. The rain man turned around and made a small throw...
Newbell hit the opponent's arm the moment Rainman shot, a tactical shooting foul!
Rain man, dunker, inside muscular man, poor shooting is normal, let alone after getting fat, the distance in one hand is lost.
The Eagles took the initiative to send Rainman to the free throw line!
Trail Blazers coach Maurice Cheeks has a bad feeling.
Rainman made two free throws. Muhammad protected the rebound and passed it to Liu Mang immediately. Liu Mang caught the ball while running and continued to rush!
The other four Eagles also rushed up!
Liu Mang rushed to the three-point line first. At this time, the extremely fast Little Flying Squirrel followed up and blocked Liu Mang's fast break and counterattack.
Liu Mang's speed was slowed down by the flying mouse, and when he entered the three-second zone, Kobe finisher Ruben Patterson had already caught up.
But this is exactly what Liu Mang wanted. Liu Mang jumped up and passed back to the top arc. This time the return pass was beyond the expectation of the three outside players of the Blazers. All the players who came back were collected!
Pippen has a very good defensive awareness, and immediately realized that he was in the trap, but the degradation of his body prevented his excellent golf quotient from being used!
Pippen turned and ran outside, but Jason Terry, who received the ball, made a chasing three-pointer and went straight to the basket!
15 to 14!
It took less than a minute for the second team of the Eagles to come up, and they overtook the score by one point!
"Cavalry tactics! It's cavalry tactics! That damn college coach really wants to play this trick?" Blazers head coach Cheeks is incredible!
This is a crazy trainer! As crazy as that old man on the Mavericks!
The cavalry tactics that the Eagles used to play once in a while are already well-known in the coaching circle, or coach Kruger already has a reputation in the coaching circle.
The first is to become the best coach favorite. This will definitely make many coaches uncomfortable. A rookie coach is actually the top two candidates for the best coach!
In addition, coach Kruger's bold employment strategy, actually giving a second-round rookie the power to fire almost unlimitedly, is even crazier than a mad scientist!
Just as Coach Cheeks had a bad premonition, after the Eagles came up, they targeted a very big weakness of the Blazers.
There are two very important insiders in the Blazers' rotation, one is the fat version of the rain man, and the other is the replaced Dell Davis. The problem with these two people is the same for different reasons-poor physical fitness , Move slowly, start attacking!
speed up! Bring up the speed, and run down the two heavy-duty inside meat piles with the largest tonnage and the strongest inside defense of the Blazers inside!
I received 5000, which I didn't expect before I opened the book. My heart is very warm, and I have nothing to say. I can only thank you and work hard to write it well. Thanks.
