Chapter 128: Tactical Game on and Off the Field (II)
"Drop the ball!"
The 76ers scored points on the offensive end, and when they returned to the defensive end, Boozer and Delon began to work together better.
ONCE AGAIN IN THE WAIST POSITION, BOOZER RAISED HIS HAND WITH ONE HAND, LEANED AGAINST CHEN MU BEHIND HIM, AND SHOUTED FOR THE BALL.
Delong knew that this was the best time to use Boozer's power to completely knock Chen Mu down, and without the slightest hesitation, he immediately sent a high ball.
However, the moment the ball came out, Delong's face suddenly changed, and he couldn't wait to find a regret pill to take it immediately and turn back time.
Behind Boozer, Chen Mu suddenly retreated.
This retreat seems ordinary, but at this time, Boozer is full of strength, and almost all the strength of his body is used in the entanglement with Chen Mu, especially the upper body, which is even more tense.
But Chen Mu suddenly retreated for some reason, causing Boozer's strength to have nowhere to rely on, and he stumbled and almost fell.
After all, he is also a professional player, Boozer immediately regained his center of gravity, and just wanted to raise his eyes to catch the ball, but found that Chen Mu, who was stuck behind him and himself, was gone.
"Chinese boy, where did ......you go?!"
Boozer was startled, but before he could recover his senses, he saw an arm stretched out above his head, and with a flick in the air, he lifted Delon's pass high.
Tough rebounders!
In Chen Mu's eyes, the badge flashed, his teeth clenched, and he made this series of actions almost reflexively.
After flying the basketball, Chen Mu landed on the ground, jumped again, and easily took the ball off the top of his head in the face of Boozer, who was not outstanding in bounce.
"Good Ball !!"
In the stadium, an astonishing shout broke out in an instant, the fans applauded loudly, and many people had an incredible look, discussing with each other Chen Mu's defensive methods.
"This ...... Isn't this a chair for defense! β
That's right, Chen Mu's choice is a defensive method called "withdrawing chair defense" on the field field.
On many wild courts, some strong interior lines with superior strength and like to play with their backs have more or less encountered such defense.
Sometimes because the chair is removed all of a sudden, the center of gravity cannot be found, and the offensive player will fall without support, so many friends will say that the removal of the chair defense is a foul.
But in fact, this kind of defense is not a foul at all, it is not even a "small action", it is a normal way of defense.
But why is it that such an effective defensive method is not very common in the NBA?
The reason is simple, as a professional player, I spend a lot of time on the court dealing with basketball and opponents every day. These monsters, who represent the top of the running and jumping quality of all mankind, are not difficult to adjust their center of gravity to maintain balance when facing the defense of the chair retreat.
Needless to say, NBA players, even in the CBA, or even in semi-professional leagues, most players can find a balance and not fall down immediately after removing the chair.
The secret lies in the skill of force.
Sometimes, when they have an absolute advantage in strength, at the moment when they attack the basket with their backs or in a key position, players will unconsciously use all their strength to resist and suppress backwards with all their strength in order to gain space for attack.
At this time, the defender immediately withdraws the chair, which will cause the player to fall down.
But on the professional field, every moment is ever-changing, and the players on the field all have motor nerves that surpass ordinary people. When playing with his back alone, he rarely really uses all his strength to fight hard, but more at the moment of leaning back, and then immediately looks for balance to see if he can find space to shoot.
Under this operation, it is actually a very advanced knowledge to properly retreat from the chair to defend and disrupt the opponent's attack at the moment when the opponent exerts his strength.
Just imagine, if Chen Mu's timing of withdrawing the chair was wrong, and it happened to be when Boozer did not withdraw with all his strength, then not only in the next moment, Boozer could receive the basketball smoothly, but also because of Chen Mu's retreat, Boozer didn't even need to make adjustments, and he could immediately turn around and shoot.
It's the same with other players, especially those with their backs. If you pull the chair while defending O'Neal, guess what happens next if O'Neill doesn't lose his balance?
This is also why Chen Mu's withdrawal of the chair defense this time will surprise everyone so much.
"Chinese kids, the fact that they are very physical, we already knew last season. At that time, it was still very strange that with such a strong body, the defense has always been a colander. Now I understand that the problem lies in the ability to judge in the moment when defending! β
With 70 points of back-to-back defensive ability, Chen Mu's understanding and awareness of defense have improved considerably. In the virtual training camp, you can go head-to-head with the ancient gods endlessly, when you can retreat, when you have to fight hard, when you have to use ingenuity, and when you have to stick to it.
"It's all here."
After sending the ball and seeing his teammates score easily, Chen Mu looked at Boozer, who was still shocked, smiled and reached out to nod his head, and said with a smile: "All your offensive routines exist here~"
At 37-37, the score was equalized again.
Organizing the offense again, Delon watched the 76ers' defense under the basket while controlling the ball, and muttered in his heart.
During the timeout, veteran coach Sloan gave very clear tactical instructions, using Boozer's strength advantage to eat the Chinese kid, just like the Heat did last season. Although Boozer's basket power cannot be compared with O'Neal, a bewitching mid-range shot can make the Chinese kid's block invisible.
"Eat strongly, keep hanging the inside line and eat the Chinese kid! When he is completely blown up, it will be time for us to increase the score! β
Sloane's abacus is very good, but the stunned young man in his eyes has long been reborn.
"Try again!"
Seeing that Boozer was still in a position outside the three-second zone, Delon was ruthless, and after blocking and dismantling with Oku high, he came to the outside of the three-point line at a 45-degree angle, lifted the basketball high, and looked like he was about to hang it high into the inside.
"Don't think!"
Iverson also saw the Jazz's tactical thinking and immediately jumped to interfere, but at the moment when his feet left the ground, a smile appeared on Delong's face, and the basketball in his hand was quickly closed, and the basketball was sent to the inside with a precise shot.
"Pass feints! Oops! β
Iverson secretly shouted that it was not good, if Boozer got the ball, Chen Mu could not interfere with his shot behind his head, and the score would be overtaken again!
But the moment Iverson landed, what sounded behind him was not the sound of a basketball entering the net, but a shout:
βRUNοΌβ
Glancing at Delong's surprised look as if he had eaten a toad, Iverson immediately understood what was happening, and took advantage of Delong's momentary hesitation to start accelerating, and frantically sprinted towards the front.
"Whoosh!"
Behind Iverson's head, a gust of wind blew, and the basketball crossed a high arc to get into place before he could get inside the opponent's three-point line.
Iverson, who received the basketball, got off to a good start, had a flawless rhythm and scored an easy layup.
39 to 37! Overtake the score!
"Heβhow did he break the ball......?!!!"
The fans in the stadium were dumbfounded, looking at the big screen in the air with their mouths wide open.
On the screen, slow motion was played, accompanied by the exclamations of countless people's "oh", the moment when Chen Mu broke the ball was finally shown in front of everyone.
Delon faked the pass, Iverson jumped, and outside the three-second zone inside, Boozer also unconsciously raised his hands to the heights.
At the same time, behind Boozer, the big yellow-skinned man who was almost covered by the former's extremely strong body suddenly poked down like a ghost, his eyes did not look into the air at all, his right hand stretched out to Boozer's waist, and his eyes looked directly at the floor not far away, looking like a character in an online game suddenly dropped, which seemed very discordant.
In the next moment, Delon collected the ball, and Iverson was still in the air, almost completely obscuring Dellon's vision. Perhaps in order to prevent Iverson from pressing again after landing, Delon did not lean out half of his body to send a pass, but relied on the position of Boozer that he saw a moment before, and left an instant memory in his mind, and directly shook his left hand and sent a pass.
"Smack"
The basketball hit the ground, rebounded, and Boozer on the inside reacted and began to press his hands down.
But on his side, Chen Mu's hand was already in place.
Everything that followed, everyone saw it, with the advantage of long arms, Chen Mu reached out and poked forward, poking Delong's pass forward a short distance.
Boozer was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to grab the ball, Chen Mu had already started one step in advance, went around his side, and before Boozer came into contact with the basketball, he jumped forward almost parallel to the ground, and made a wave of his right hand similar to that before a high-five, and slapped hard under the side of the basketball with one hand.
At this time, Chen Mu didn't look at whether there was any danger under his body at all, his eyes stared straight at the front, and shouted "RUN" loudly.
The basketball flew to the front court, Iverson started early, successfully received the ball and scored a layup, and the score was overtaken.
ββ¦β¦ Wow!!! β
After the slow-motion was played, the fans suddenly realized, looked at Chen Mu who was getting up from the floor on the court, and burst out with a shocking shout.
"Chinese and Chinese boys, it's too good!!"
On the field, Chen Mu nodded slightly, rubbed his arm that hurt a little, and looked at Iverson who came back to defend with a smile.
Off the court, Sloane's brow furrowed.
In the next round, the Jazz tried to play the familiar blocking and pick-and-roll tactics, but Delong's return pass was seen through by Chen Mu, and although he failed to steal, he poked it out of the sideline.
The Jazz sent a sideline ball, Iguodala came out of nowhere, made another steal, and ran all the way to the front court to score a dunk.
Philadelphia's long-arm steal network began to come into play, and the score gap reached four points, and Sloan, who loved to get down on one knee at the timeout and shouted a loud reprimand to the players, couldn't hold back anymore and called a timeout for the second time in just a few minutes.
"Jerry is going to change his tactics!"
Watching Sloan lash out at the players like a military instructor, Cheeks knew it was time to make a change, and reached out a little Webb and said, "Chris, you take a break, Steven plays!" β
"The steal network has been laid, and next, we have to establish a no-fly zone ......!" (To be continued.) )
