The Diggers lost at home.

It's not a big deal for the fans, but it's a big deal for the coaches of the teams around the league. The backcourt tactics that the Magic played in this game were a sharp mess.

As soon as possible, the head coaches of most of the teams received the video of the game that had been cut.

After the Rockets' home win, head coach Adelman said things that had nothing to do with the Rockets.

Adelman:

"I watched the Magic team's game, and in this game, Bruce Qin played the tactical coordination I always wanted, Princeton's tactics, everyone became a finisher, fast and decisive passing and cutting coordination, giving full play to the height advantage, speed advantage, shooting advantage, I have to say, Bruce Qin is the most suitable point guard for Princeton's tactics I have ever seen."

Coach Adelman's favorite and best tactic is the Princeton tactic.

What is Princeton Tactics?

To put it simply, Princeton's style of play is "strong can take advantage of the weak, and smart can take advantage of the strong." ”

The essence of this style of play is "human movement, ball movement, coordination." "Man-to-man refers to moving without the ball, cutting in the air and running back, and ball movement refers to constantly passing and sharing the ball. Among them, the reverse run is the signature of Princeton's style of play.

The combination of Matt Barnes and Qin Yang's game is that the two of them play eye, cover, move without the ball, reverse run and pass to a certain extreme.

If this kind of passing and cutting cooperation is not played well, it is a high mistake.

In fact, Princeton's tactics are very good to play, but it is very difficult to really rely on such tactics to win championships, and before the small-ball tactics were on the rise, Princeton's tactics needed an interior with excellent passing ability as the axis, otherwise such tactics would be difficult to play.

But with the rise of small-ball tactics, such tactics have changed again.

D'Antoni's bombardment with the Suns is also similar to Gen Princeton's tactics to some extent, with the bombardment emphasizing quick offense, making quick shots or misplaced shots before the opponent has organized a solid defense. This tactic also has high requirements for passing, and without a good point guard, the bombardment becomes blind.

Qin Yang's beating in this game also belongs to Princeton.

It's just two outside-based Princeton tactics.

Passing and cutting, running, covering, misplaced shots, and ensuring the hit rate of the offense.

This kind of tactic, if you want to play brilliantly, the requirements for players are actually very high, at least the players who cooperate with the outside line must be very good at three-point shots, pass the ball can not be bad, and the breakthrough must be above the level line.

And in order not to suffer on the defensive end, players must also be able to misalign the three positions on the perimeter.

This is a bit more difficult.

Qin Yang can barely be counted, but Matt Barnes is in a fantastic state in this game, and his shooting rate is perverted, otherwise it is impossible to meet the requirements.

Normal Princeton tactics, if you are not good at three-point shots, you can't pull space outside the three-point line, then the space inside the three-point line is not enough, and it is easy to be defended, therefore, the previous Princeton tactics played well, but it was difficult to win.

The history of the NBA is like that, and it's hard to say whether it's the players who make history or the history that makes the players.

With the development of NBA games and rules, this tactic will become more and more popular in the future, because the rules of the NBA are more and more inclined to such smooth and beautiful games, and there are more and more players who are good at three-point shooting.

Future outside players are not good at three-point shooting, and it is difficult to be taken seriously.

Adelman's praise made the media more eager to report it.

Qin Yang and Barnes' passing and cutting cooperation has become the choice of sports program broadcasting many times, and the smooth passing and cutting cooperation has almost played the outside three of the Nuggets. It looks very comfortable.

After playing the Nuggets, the Magic team didn't have time to conduct tactical drills.

The next day, the Magic flew straight to Portland, where they played the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Magic team vs. the Trail Blazers is actually very interesting, the lineups of the two teams are somewhat similar, both are one inside and one outside the team building model, the Magic team is Qin Yang and Howard, and the Trail Blazers are Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge.

But before the game, the team was informed that Trail Blazers core Brandon Roy was out due to injury and will not be in this game.

Before the game started, the core was out due to injury.

This away game doesn't look like it's going to be a tough one.

Before the game, the team conducts a simple training session.

Coach Van Gundy called the main outside players of the Magic team to conduct a tactical drill, and the content of the drill was very simple, that is, the cooperation between Qin Yang and Barnes yesterday.

But this time, it was expanded to three people and four people on the outside.

Petrus, Ryan Anderson, Redick Barnes, Vince Carter, Qin Yang, Brandonbas, Rashad Lewis are all involved.

Screens, pick-and-rolls, runs, passes, and shoots or layups when they find an open opportunity.

Tactical training is not an overnight thing, fortunately, similar tactics have been trained by the Magic team before, but at that time, Qin Yang shot to finish the offense, and others covered, but this time if there is a chance, Qin Yang needs to pass the ball to his teammates.

After a hasty tactical training, the next day, the game began.

The Trail Blazers start, Andre Miller, LaMarcus Aldridge, Juwan Howard, Baylors and Webster.

The first two are okay and have some fame, while the last two are not well-known in the league.

Juwan Howard is already very old, but he became a starter in the Trail Blazers, which shows how miserable the Trail Blazers' lineup is.

Jump ball, Magic direct offense.

Qin Yang dribbled the ball past half the court, Petrus directly made a cover, Qin Yang pulled the ball back, and then passed the ball directly to Petrus, Petrus was interfered with, passed the ball to Redick, Redick was defended by Andre Miller and did not dare to shoot.

In the end, Qin Yang ran into position, received a pass, and shot directly and quickly.

To be honest, this pass cut is a terrible match.

The passing and cutting cooperation itself is to find the defensive shortcomings of the opposite side, or to create an offensive opportunity for teammates, but after Qin Yang passed, the opportunity came out, but his teammates couldn't grasp it.

Bayless and Andre Miller are both very low in height, if it is Qin Yang, he can shoot crazy in the face of these two people, and he is absolutely misplaced, but Qin Yang's teammates cannot.

Petrus is unsteady in his shots and not fast enough.

Redick was a bit of a break when he was on defense.

In the end, Qin Yang had to make a move.

Rather than this, it is better for Qin Yang to shoot directly.

But the team has already arranged tactical cooperation, and Qin Yang can only slowly comply.

At the beginning of the game, Qin Yang made very few shots, mainly to attract the defense and pass it to his teammates and let his teammates shoot. But it didn't work out well.

After Redick received the ball, he made a hasty shot, which was affected by the defense, and he shot 2-of-6 in the first quarter, and the shooting percentage was dismal.

Petrus was 1-of-4 from the field and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, and his performance was average.

In this case, the Magic team fell behind 20-24 in the first quarter.
