Chapter 380 [A Wave, Two Weaknesses]
The Nets attacked, with two inside sides covering outside teammates, and the Wizards' 122 joint defense position did not mark people, strictly preventing breakthroughs, and interfering with nearby shots. www.biquge.infoKidd's jumper was deflected wide by Wesley's interference, and the rebound was grabbed by Jordan.
The most terrifying thing about the old rascal is his all-round, his age and blue-collar rebounding, and he doesn't suffer at all.
In his playoff career, he averaged 33.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 2.1 steals and 0.9 blocks per game, which is still the data he got under the premise that he liked to play fast break when he was young and didn't like to grab backcourt rebounds. If Jordan likes to grab rebounds, he won't average a career-high of eight per game in a single season.
In the Wizards' positional battle, Boozer played the block first, received the ball and organized it in the middle, and passed it to Margeti again.
Margeti, who had a misplaced opportunity, received the ball and dipped to the left, one step past Williams and into the basket.
Williams is considered fast among power forwards and can keep up with Marshall, but Margeti is a strong swingman, and his speed does not suffer in small forwards, and it is difficult for the interior to keep up with him.
Martin retreated in the middle to make up for the defense, and Boozer was still a step slower when he let go, and Margeti scored with a left-handed dunk. 4 to 0.
The Nets attacked, Kidd broke through the bag and distributed the ball to Williams, who received the ball from the baseline and dribbled to Martin on the left side, and there was a mistake.
Jordan judged Williams' passing route correctly, rushed to the basket and made a steal, jumped out of the baseline himself, saved the ball, Hamilton took the ball in his arms, and waited for Wesley to answer and stabilize the position.
Williams' cut to the basket was blocked by Boozer, and his choice was very good, and he could only pass the ball to the other side inside or outside, and his personal singles chance was very low.
The weakness of the blue-collar game began to appear, Williams couldn't open up the space, covered on the perimeter, only blocked, not demolished.
As long as Williams is away from the basket, the Wizards players will just let him go and wrap up Kidd or Kittels to prevent them from taking easy shots. Jordan and Margeti dropped back quickly and were more mobile than most of the inside.
The Wizards attacked, Boozer received the ball in the middle, watched his teammates run, and the defender of Margeti became Martin.
Margeti couldn't get on the ball and took a step to Hamilton, who gave the ball to Jordan, who had his back to the right 60 degrees.
Jordan didn't pause with the ball, turned to the middle and gave it to the basket, Boozer cut in the air, received the ball with his back and turned to the right side and entered the basket, holding the ball with both hands and shaking it.
Williams suffered a loss of weight, and he was afraid that he would be tough to eat, so he hurriedly jumped up and blocked it.
Boozer shook Williams up, took a step forward, and threw his opponent's right hand. Williams was arched and the foul wasn't pulled. Boozer scored on the board, the referee blew the whistle, and the foul was 2+1.
The Nets' home fans booed the free throw, but Boozer was unfazed and scored the free throw. 7 to 0.
The Nets attacked, Kidd drew the defense and passed to the left low post, Martin singled Jordan and forced a turn to throw the ball in. 7 to 2.
The Wizards' offense was still the same old routine, Boozer and Wesley blocked and dismantled, Wesley didn't get rid of Kidd on the right side, and passed the ball to Jordan from close range.
Jordan took the ball and turned around, relying on Jackson to pass the ball lightly to the basket with one hand, as long as he could bring out a little passing space, four or two dialed a thousand gold.
Boozer cut deep into the air, caught the ball under the basket and turned to the left side of Williams, attracting Martin to drop back and defend. He took the ball with both hands and paused slightly, and took advantage of the situation to separate the periphery.
The speed of a player's progress has a lot to do with the environment he is in, Boozer has learned a lot from Leitner, Marshall, and Jordan in the team, and he is now not only attacking strongly, but also breaking bags.
Margeti was empty, Kittels followed Hamilton far away, and there was no time to make up the defense. Margeti opted for a more secure position and hit a shot from 70 degrees to the left. 9 to 2.
Smith exclaimed: "Boozer gave another assist, he played so well today, he had a clear advantage under the basket, he was very powerful. ”
Barkley laughed: "Jerry Young can always pick up treasures in the draft, Boozer fell to the second round and was seriously underrated, Williams can't guard him alone." ”
Smith nodded: "I think Scott should replace Williams now, he can't guard Boozer, and he can't guard Margety, it's an obvious weakness." ”
The Nets offense is still the same old-fashioned, Kidd organizes, gives code to his teammates, chooses tactics, and organizes passes.
Jackson ran off the ball and received a pass from Kidd, and hit Hamilton for a three-pointer, but the ball was deflected out again, and he played too easily.
In Yang Rui's previous life, from entering the league to retiring, Jackson's offense was not stable, he could easily cut 30+ in a game, or he could play iron in the whole game, with a shooting rate of less than 30% and less than 10 points. He shot around 40 percent from the field every season and only 37.4 percent in his second season with the Knicks.
Boozer jammed Martin, Jordan won the backcourt rebound again, and Williams had a height advantage and was stuck by Jordan and couldn't jump.
Williams is a bit impatient, playing 18 minutes per game in the playoffs and averaging 4.6 rebounds, including 1.7 in the frontcourt, but his best skills are now not as good as Jordan's.
In fact, this is normal, Williams has always been a dispensable existence in the league, Yang Rui in his previous life, he changed 10 teams in his career, and he is only suitable for being a substitute.
The Wizards battled in a positional battle, Wesley and Boozer played a block and a pick-and-roll, Martin defended Boozer again, and Williams defended Margety.
Martin was too concerned about Boozer's air cut and didn't change guards in time, Wesley changed direction to the right to get rid of it, and a one-step pull-up jump shot from inside the three-point line dodged Kidd's chase block, and the ball deflected off the basket.
Before Martin could breathe a sigh of relief, Jordan rushed to the basket and competed with Jackson for a rebound in the front court, and pulled the ball out of the restricted area. Martin stepped back to grab the rebound, only to get the ball away from him.
Boozer took a step forward from the free throw line to pick up the rebound, held the ball with both hands and dangled, and Martin flew up.
Boozer's feints are very realistic, and the follow-up movements are also very smooth, moving sideways to avoid Martin, taking another step to the basket, jumping up and smashing the ball with one hand! 11 to 2.
The opponent played a strong wave of attacks, but Scott did not call a timeout, nor did he make substitutions, allowing the players to adjust on the court.
Scott is a coach who doesn't like to call timeouts, and on the field, Kidd is in charge.
Usually Kidd can stabilize the situation, but now this lineup is obviously unguardable, and if he doesn't call a timeout in time, not only may the score fall behind more, but also affect morale.
Scott has the advantage of being eclectic in terms of training newcomers, and in Yang Rui's previous life, Martin, Jefferson, and Jason Collins were all brought out by him; During the Hornets period, Paul's bench Darren Collison also played well; While with the Lakers, Scott tapped into the potential of second-round rookie Clarkson.
But in terms of arranging tactics, Scott is undoubtedly an overrated coach, often slow to call timeouts, poor on-the-spot adaptability, and rigid tactics.
For this, in Yang Rui's previous life, although he led the Nets to the finals twice, he still had many contradictions with Kidd. Tactically, Kidd often has a disagreement with Scott, and Kidd is better than Scott if he is a player or a player.
As a result, Scott was fired by the team in the middle of the 2003-2004 season. Kidd was interviewed and believes that Scott is not as good as Nets assistant coach Lawrence Frank.
Now, another weakness of the Nets has also become apparent, and that is the gap in the head coach.
