Chapter 504: Final Word

The origin of the Philadelphia Lighthouse tactics is very simple, that is, after Chen Mu has the ability to respond above the level and gradually master the offensive skills at the star level, Cheeks designed a tactical running method in order to maximize Chen Mu's role in the small-ball strategy.

When this running method is maximized, it is when Chen Mu is paired with four shooters.

Whether it is Miller before or Lowry now, the 76ers' three-point shooting ability is not a strong point guard position. Iguodala is versatile both offensively and defensively, but everyone knows that his three-point shooting has never been consistent. When the feel comes, you can vote how to have, and when the feel is gone, it is how to cast how to iron.

Limited by this staffing, Cheeks designed this tactic by letting Miller or Lowry run to the basket from the start. Then whether Chen Mu passes the ball directly or guides the ball to the basket through running, Miller or Lowry can score directly.

This design was just a helpless move at first, but who knows, after actually using it, the effect is amazing.

Because of the containment of the outside shooter, coupled with the impact of more than two breakthrough players on the inside, the layering of the Philadelphia Lighthouse tactic has greatly increased, and it has become a tactic that is difficult to completely crush from a certain aspect. In the past two seasons, he has helped the Philadelphia 76ers beat many opponents.

But is this tactic really perfect? Of course not.

The way to crack this tactic is very simple:

As long as the defender who defends Chen Mu has a center-level defensive control range, and has good mobility and judgment, he will turn around the moment the basketball is led under the basket, and block the attacker under the basket while jamming Chen Mu's position.

As long as you can do it. The Philadelphia Lighthouse tactics will be completely cracked.

This line of thinking is not complicated at all, and to put it bluntly, it is an oppressive defensive strategy that stacks up defensive forces on the strong side. The basketball is under the basket, so I'm going to defend the basket with all my might, no matter who you're under the basket, just don't let you shoot or pass the ball to the corner. The problem is solved.

As for Chen Mu's side, although it is a bit dangerous to let him go in the middle distance, as mentioned earlier, as long as the defender can pay attention to the position and block the space for the ball carrier to pass to Chen Mu.

It's easy to say, but it's so hard and too hard to do so many things at the same time in one moment.

There are very few interior players in the league who can do this.

And Duncan. There is no doubt that he is one of them.

Cover!

On the court, Duncan's long arm stretched out and blocked Lowry's layup route, and as long as the basketball left Lowry's hand, it would be slapped by Duncan immediately.

The tactics have been cracked, and this attack is going to concede goals!

On the sidelines, Carlisle was anxious, and the tactical board in his hand was very tight. The expression on his face is not very good-looking.

I didn't set up this tactic before the second half!

Carlisle knows. The reason why the players chose this way was because they felt unhappy when they saw the other party showing off what they were best at in front of them, so they couldn't help but run the Philadelphia Lighthouse tactic.

This tactic is certainly a classic, or it would not have been praised by critics for simply naming it "Philadelphia".

But the reason why the players are not allowed to use this tactic in this game, Carlisle also has his own considerations.

The reason is simple:

Tim Duncan.

Because there was Tim Duncan in the opposing team. With Duncan's defensive skills, it is impossible not to see the Achilles' heel of this tactic. All he needed to do was just turn around, and other things to his talent. It's so easy to do.

And now, the Spurs have also played this tactic, which proves that the Spurs players are no strangers to this tactic, with Duncan's basketball IQ, how can they not find the weakness?

Lowry has completely fallen into a dead end, the shot will be blocked, the pass to the bottom corner will be stealed by Ginobili, the pass to Milicic, Bonner is still waiting, it is impossible to pass the ball to Iguodala, there are several people in between.

The only chance is to pass the ball to Chen Mu, but Duncan is standing between Lowry and Chen Mu, and the ordinary passing starter will definitely be cut off by Duncan.

EVEN IF HE WANTED TO MAKE A NOLOOKINGPASS AND PASS THE BALL FROM HIS WAIST, PARKER WAS ALREADY IN PLACE EARLY AND DIDN'T HAVE SUCH AN OPPORTUNITY.

Lowry is really cornered, has Philadelphia's offense really been completely blocked by Duncan's turn this time, this time with a simple to the extreme, but an old and spicy terrifying turn?

"There's still a chance."

On the commentary stand, Barkley looked at Lowry's position and said, "As long as you do that, Lowry can get an assist......!" ”

Meanwhile, Lowry sent a pass.

"Smack!"

The basketball in his hand was quickly put away by Lowry and sent to his crotch, and the movements he made were exactly the same as the classic passing actions that Chen Mu often made on weekdays.

The basketball hit the ground, passed under Lowry and Duncan's crotch, and flew straight outside the three-second zone.

Crotch pass!

Lowry's choice was bold and bizarre, and by the time Duncan reacted and wanted to reach for it, it was too late.

The basketball roared and rushed to the free throw line, but Lowry's pass seemed to be a little higher, in order to avoid Duncan's block, he exerted too much force, and flew too high after rebounding, even if Chen Mu received the ball, it was difficult to shoot directly.

There's still a chance to cap!

Where could Duncan not hear the difference? made a judgment in an instant, and immediately turned around again, wanting to stop Chen Mu's shot.

But when Duncan turned around, he was completely stunned.

"Bend your knees slightly, and you don't have to start from too low because I'm a big guy, so I can have less forearm preparation for shooting."

On the free throw line, where is Chen Mu's shadow? As the basketball flew to the outside route, Chen Mu's figure had already retreated to the top of the arc outside the three-point line, which was the most accurate point for his three points. With his hands near his chest, he made a gesture of preparing to catch the ball and throw, and his mouth was still muttering something.

“…… Finally, the wrist flick must be sufficient, and the following action cannot be omitted. ”

"Whew......!"

Starting with basketball, Chen Mu made a standard shooting action. Although this action still has some shadows of Jordan's mid-range shot, it doesn't seem to be the most typical three-point shooter shooting pose, but it still looks beautiful, and every frame can be enlarged as a poster and pasted on the wall.

Actually...... Let's go shoot a three-pointer!

I didn't expect it at all!!

Duncan was completely stunned, and the Chinese kid had a three-point range. What does this mean for the Chinese kid himself, or for the Philadelphia 76ers, or even for the whole league?

Duncan felt that perhaps everyone had underestimated the impact of this sudden three-point skill all along.

The strength of the Chinese kid has always been the growth of personal skills. But this time, with Carlisle, a phoenix-level tactician, the true power of the Chinese kid. I'm afraid it will be the first time that it will be truly revealed in front of the whole world.

“…… Swish! ”

The basketball went into the net, and the court was silent.

"Follow the action, follow the action, and you must remember to follow the action."

Chen Mu was still muttering, his right hand always maintained the posture of shooting, and he stepped back and stepped back.

“…… Pretty!!! ”

The 76ers bench instantly fell out, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Duncan's brilliant defensive choices still couldn't prevent Chen Mu from scoring. The result made all Philadelphia players rejoice.

Our boss is now on an equal footing with players of this level!

"These boys. What a ......."

Carlisle, who was still very nervous before, was also very calm, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and nodded to the players who came back to defend.

The Philadelphia Lighthouse, the "forward tactic" that Carlyle almost completely abandoned, also entered his mind again.

After Chen Mu had a three-point threat, many tactics that were originally not so lethal. I'm afraid they can all get back to life......!

And this three-pointer also kicked off the offensive frenzy of the Philadelphia 76ers again.

The difference of 16 points became the smallest difference between the two sides after the first leg of the second half. Even if the Spurs' GDP works together and continues to contribute wonderful scoring performances, they can't prevent it. From Chen Mu to Milicic, from Lowry to Iguodala, almost all Philadelphia players are in top shape.

Carlisle's tactics are endless, varied, and Philadelphia continues to use tactical coordination to score points, and from time to time to sacrifice Chen Mu's singles, always keeping the score difference above 20 points.

Midway through the third quarter, a round that decided the game's attribution finally appeared.

"Pull away!!"

The familiar shout sounded, and Iguodala shouted to his teammates to open up space for Chen Mu to play singles, and near the three-second zone, Chen Mu turned his back and held the ball to prepare for singles.

Duncan defended tightly behind him, although he knew very well in his heart that his defense could not completely crush Chen Mu, who had completely gained momentum, but the superstar would never give up the game.

Pressing back strongly, Chen Mu continued to put pressure on Duncan's defense, and his thick and strong back exerted force, advancing to the basket step by step.

Then, turn around!

Feints ......!

Duncan has already eaten through Chen Mu's offensive habits, and when attacking one-on-one under the basket, perhaps due to Duncan's strong defensive deterrence, Chen Mu will first make a feint to find an opportunity to shoot after every back-to-back single.

This time it must be a feint too!

Duncan was sure of his judgment and was ready to wait until Chen Mu really made a move.

And half a second later, when Duncan saw that the height of the basketball in Chen Mu's hand was not quite right, and it seemed that he was really going to attack the basket, it was too late.

"Just ......", "Bang! ”

Barkley's surprised words were not finished, the sound of violent dunks had already sounded, and Duncan, who was in a hurry to try to block, failed to control his movements, and slapped Chen Mu's wrist hard.

The referee's whistle blew and Duncan committed his fourth personal foul.

Chen Mu, in the face of the defense of the largest striker in history, completed a shocking two-plus-one two-handed deduction.

"Final !!"

With Barkley shouting with excitement and almost madness, Chen Mujia hit a free throw, the Spurs called a timeout, and Duncan returned to the bench.

The difference was stretched to 28 points. (To be continued.) )

PS: This year's All-Star, the slam dunk contest is undoubtedly the most concerned!

Keel porridge was working outside at the time, and I didn't see the live broadcast, but I watched it afterwards, and the spicy text and Grub were indeed IMBA!
