Chapter 143: You can't become fat by eating in one bite
The first quarter of the game ended quickly, and the Philadelphia bench did not maintain the hot hand of the last game, and did not score a point after coming on the court, and the point difference was further widened. 34 to 21, the difference of 13 points is shocking.
The Clippers players aren't too old, with the exception of veterans like Cassell, Thomas, Mobley, Margety, and Brand, and a significant number of players on the team who have only one or two years of professional experience.
However, it was the starting lineup composed of these four people plus the veteran Karman teacher that made the 76ers suffer.
During the break, Cheeks kept scratching his head, thinking about it again and again, but he still couldn't come up with a good idea.
The tactical thinking of this academic coach is not new, although in the past year or so, Chen Mu has "transformed" a lot, but in the face of the situation on the field, there are few excellent countermeasures.
After the Iverson trade, the 76ers had a lot of talent and a reasonable roster structure, but the loss of the ball-handling creator made it difficult for the team to continue to play against the old ball.
Theoretically, against the Clippers' starting lineup, it is completely possible to target their weakness of slightly lacking mobility, carry out continuous basket bombing, and use the athleticism of the team's young people to compete.
Cassel and Mobley don't mention, they have never been the masters who rely on speed to eat, Margeti is not a speeding sports car, Brand's athleticism is quite strong, but compared to speed, Chen Mu does not suffer at all, Carman is even more slow, and his footwork is very problematic, and the effect of single defense of big men is good, so it is a little difficult for him to help defend everywhere.
In the face of such an opponent, if there is one member of the 76ers who can play seven in and seven out, they will continue to draw CHA...... Ah no, the ball-handler who constantly breaks through the restricted area, like Iverson before him, can completely mess up the Clippers' defensive formation, win countless free throws, and then open up space to gain an advantage.
Unfortunately, Iverson is gone.
In order to maximize the power of this lineup, Cheeks also racked his brains and spent countless efforts to finally determine the two most commonly used conventional tactics at present.
Against the same young team, Chen Mu and Miller's backs are axes, and the passing strategy of pointing to which to play can completely tear apart the opponent's defense and create countless gaps. But against a bunch of old balls, this set loses its effectiveness.
Kassel, Brand, and Carman all have a back-to-back effort, and the Clippers are not afraid of positional warfare.
Margeti and Mobley can play a fast attack, Cassel is in command, and the Clippers are not afraid of lightning raids.
What to do? The second quarter has begun, and watching the substitute players on the court being bullied, the starters are anxious.
"Sure enough, you can't become a fat man by eating in one bite......"
Thinking of the scene where he used his strength advantage to completely dry up Murphy in the last game, Chen Mu shook his head helplessly.
There's no skill, there's just power, and it works against Murphy, it works against Dunleavy, it works against a rookie like last year, but against Brand? It's good not to be eaten back!
When the strength advantage is no longer obvious, and even when he encounters a stronger opponent in the future, and the strength becomes a disadvantage, he will attack with his back to his back, and with Chen Mu's current strength, it will be difficult to continue at all.
"Chen, what did you just say?"
Hearing Chen Mu's self-talk, Chicks asked puzzled.
"Ah......? Oh, that! ”
Chen Mu reacted at this time, he just habitually spoke Chinese, and explained with a smile: "This is a common saying in my hometown, to the effect that don't be anxious, thin people can't eat a big mouthful of food, and they immediately become fat." ”
"You can't become fat by eating in one bite...... Hmmm......"
Originally, it was just a simple cultural exchange between the East and the West, but when Chicks heard this, his expression changed, he thought carefully for a while, and suddenly said: "You can't become a fat man by eating in one bite!" Right! Reasonable! ”
"Coach, are you hungry......?"
Iguodala didn't understand what Cheeks was nervous about, and said with a wry smile: "I'll talk about dinner later, now tell us how to fight next?" ”
"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm excited for a while."
The gloom on Cheeks' face was swept away, he reached out and patted Chen Mu, who was drinking a drink, and continued: "The next tactics, Chen has already thought of them for me!" ”
"Poof!"
As soon as Chen Mu took a sip of his drink, he was slapped heavily by Cheeks, and all of it was squirted out, and he hurriedly signaled to the staff embarrassedly to help wipe the floor.
"Coach, what the hell are you talking about? It's really weird, since Chen came to the team, Aaron, Chris, including you, how have they all become mysterious, always suddenly as if they understand something, and they all have their hearts, don't you make it clear?? ”
Iguodala is a single-celled creature who can't understand Cheeks' brain circuits, but he is curious by nature and wants to rip off Cheeks' head right away to see what is going on.
"Heh, you can't become a fat man by eating one bite...... Ha, that's kind of interesting. ”
On Iguodala's side, Weber, who hadn't played for a long time, was also a musician, stretched out his hand and gave Chen Mubi a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "Chen is right, we don't need to drill that horn tip." ”
"Chris, why are you playing this set too??" Iguodala was about to go crazy, and looked at Chen Mu in confusion: "What the hell are you three doing, tell me quickly, how are you going to fight next??" ”
"Genius, you're a genius!"
Cheeks ignored Iguodala's shouting, patted Chen Mu's shoulder twice, and said with a smile: "The recent transaction of Aaron has made our nerves a little too nervous, where in the world is there such a simple thing, how can you become fat in one bite!" ”
"Well, it really doesn't have to be that way."
Miller, who had been silent, also nodded slightly: "I am also responsible, and I shouldn't be so stubborn." ”
As he spoke, Miller stretched out his hand and patted Chen Mudao: "Thank you for the reminder, now that my mind has calmed down, I will adjust it after playing for a while, and I will reorganize my tactical ideas!" ”
"I'll ......!"
Iguodala was about to throw the towel on Miller's face, and when he looked around, even Chen Mu, the initiator, seemed to understand something, nodded and smiled slightly, and his face showed the look of everything under control.
"Kyle! Kyle! ”
Iguodala was angry, a sense of inferiority in IQ spontaneously arose, and hurriedly looked back at Korver to find some sense of identity, and asked, "Do you understand?" What nerves are they having? How the hell are we going to fight?? ”
"Hmmm......"
Who would have thought that even Korver nodded frequently, with a look of listening carefully to Teacher Chen Mu's lecture, and raised his eyebrows: "Andre, listen carefully, what they said is very reasonable!" ”
"I'll listen to @#$%^#$%!"
Iguodala turned her head to look at Chen Mu helplessly, and asked anxiously, "Chen, what did you say?" How do you make everyone seem to understand, but I don't understand?? ”
"Huh?" Chen Mu turned around blankly and replied, "I said a word from beginning to end." ”
"What's that?!"
"You can't get fat by eating in one bite."
"Plop"
Iguodala, overly anxious, sudden(fog!) )。
"Haha, Andre, after you play for a while, don't think too much, let Miller and Chen dispatch tactics or something, you just need to do two things well."
Cheeks smiled and looked at the depressed Iguodala and said, "First, guard against Margety." Second, the moment the opponent shoots, don't care about the rebound or anything, just run and attack quickly! ”
“…… Be! ”
Iguodala was stunned when he heard this, although he didn't understand the mystery too much, but no one in the whole team could do these two things better than himself, so he nodded heavily.
Not far away, Chen Mu smiled on his face, looked at the single-cell Iguodala who was rekindled by the coach's fighting spirit with a word, and said: "Run more, keep running, and the positional battle must also run endlessly, we will send you countless passes!" ”
“TIMEOUT!”
Cheeks called a timeout, and the score on the court had become 39-25, and the 14-point difference was not small, and it was really too late if he didn't make adjustments.
"Next substitutions, Miller, Kyle, Andre, Chen, the four of you starters will remain the same, and then Steven will rest a little more, Chris!"
"Yes."
Under the surprised eyes of the players, Webb, who was almost completely hidden by Cheeks, slowly got up, pulled his muscles, and came to the coach's side.
"Go on the court with Chen, grab rebounds, both in the front court and in the backcourt, and you can try to play back when you have a chance on the offensive end. If you have a good view after grabbing the backcourt board, then ......"
Cheeks looked at the bullet and drew a little on the board, a little under his own half, and then drew a long arc that led directly to the Clippers' basket.
“TOUCHDOWN!”
“YESSIR~”
Webber smiled slightly, he couldn't be better at this matter, turned around and looked at Chen Mu, everything was silent.
"Okay, let's play, don't fight like an old man, run, run endlessly!"
“1、2、3、TOUCHDOWN!”
The 76ers regained their confidence, shouted a term that didn't belong to the game of basketball, and walked onto the court with their heads held high.
"Oh......? Got on Chris? ”
Clippers coach Dunleavy Sr. was stunned when he saw the 76ers' lineup, but recalled that in the first few games of this season, Webber's obvious decline was not too worried, and he sent the starting lineup, ready to further widen the point difference.
A whistle blows, and the game resumes.
The 76ers took the lead in attacking, and Webber, who had just come on the court, received the ball under the basket, deceived Carman, who was not much faster than him, with experience and feints, and scored a layup.
The Clippers attacked, and Kassel's trademark back-to-back single, opted for a pass under Miller's interference.
Margeti received the ball and was ready to break inside, but Iguodala obviously added a little more force, making Margeti a little harder.
"This kid, why is it suddenly like he's doped?!"
Margeti gritted his teeth and threw a shot, Iguodala's defensive action was clean, and the referee did not blow the penalty.
"Smack!"
Under the basket, the yellow-skinned figure rose to the ground, picked off the rebound in the air, and raised his head with a shout:
“TOUCHDOWN!!!”
By the time Magetti reacts and turns back to his defender, where is Iguodala's shadow?
"Bang!"
Under the Clippers basket, Iguodala didn't know when he had started to start, Chen Mu's pass was accurate, Iguodala made a wonderful 360-degree turn and dunk after receiving the ball, and roared after landing, venting the anger in his chest crazily.
"Good shot, touchdown score~"
Under his own basket, Chen Mu clenched his fist with his right hand and reached out to Iguodala to point, just like a backcourt commander, calm and staggering! (To be continued.) )
