"Don't shoot unless you are open. Whether it's a counterattack or a positional battle, pass the ball to Yang, and pay attention not to make any passing mistakes..." George Karl used one tactic throughout the game. The players opened up to create opportunities for Yang Jian.
No team has been able to completely break this tactic throughout the season. The teams that beat the SuperSonics almost always double-teamed Yang Jian and let others take action. Others sometimes couldn't guarantee their shooting percentage, and they cheated Yang Jian.
George Karl saw Yang Jian's determination to score high points. Unless the opponent adopts a ball-free flanking strategy, there is no way to stop Yang Jian from taking action. Yang Jian throws whenever he has the chance. He doesn't even care about the hit rate today, but even so
, his shooting percentage is still very high.
Nets players did not double-team Yang Jian without the ball. If the coach did not arrange it, the players would not do it spontaneously.
This is a key factor for Yang Jian to score high points. The Nets' coaching level is very poor. Dom Casey, who is over 50 years old, has coached two teams, the Clippers and the Nets, for a total of three seasons, and his winning rate has never been the same.
More than 40%. His offense and defense have no system at all, and he has lost an average of 107 points per game in his coaching career.
Another characteristic of Dom Casey is that he dares to play against any team and likes fast-paced games. In the 1988-89 season, the Clippers he coached averaged 107.1 points per game, and the team averaged only one shot per game.
What he got with 2.6 three-pointers is so weird.
Dom Casey became the coach of the Nets purely because the Nets fired head coach John Calipari at the beginning of the season. Without a better choice, Dom took over as an assistant coach, and he also had
With a two-year contract, the management wanted him to be the transitional head coach and lead the team to failure.
He can get out after the contract is over, and there is no way he can get a contract extension. Because he is really bad, and he is not deliberately trying to be bad.
The Nets attacked first, and Yang Jian let Marbury two meters away. As long as the opponent couldn't make a shot, he deliberately grabbed the backcourt rebound.
Marbury made a three-point jumper from the middle and hit another one. 103 to 93.
Zhang Liji smiled and said: "This game is really good to watch. If Yang Jian doesn't defend well, he will just score points."
Sun Zhengping said: "The Nets still did not double-team without the ball. Yang Jian easily got the ball after halftime."
It is impossible for a player to prevent Yang Jian from getting the ball on his own. Even Marbury, the fastest player on the Nets, is slower than Yang Jian. Moreover, the Nets cannot let Marbury, who is 188cm tall, guard Yang Jian and interfere with his shooting.
The effect is poor and the confrontation will suffer.
Yang Jian picked up the ball two meters outside the three-point line, and Brad Miller immediately came up to cover. He could understand why Yang Jian asked him to practice three-point shooting from the middle. Once Yang Jian attracted a double-team after the pick-and-roll, he would have a chance to shoot if the ball was given to him.
Miller's shooting range is still below the three-point line, so there is only a pick-and-roll. Yang Jian moved sideways to the right and got rid of Kendall Gill, forcing a breakthrough into the three-point line.
Power forward Mark Hendrickson, who is 206cm tall and weighs 100kg, switched defenses, and Yang Jian played small. He suddenly stopped with the ball in his right hand at 70 degrees, and moved his left hand slightly closer.
Hendrickson hurriedly stopped his weight and stepped forward to interfere with the shot. Yang Jian, your iron-blooded jump shot today was so accurate that your opponents were afraid of it.
As a result, Hendrickson took a small step and faked a move. Yang Jian held the ball in his right hand and took a big step forward. He succeeded in breaking through with his rhythm, staggering Hendrickson and chasing him from behind.
Kendall Gill also failed to complete the double attack.
Yang Jian entered the penalty area, picked the basket with his right hand and avoided Jamil Faik's cover and blocked the shot, easily hitting the board and scoring. 105 to 93.
The Nets attacked, and Marbury took the ball to the center and shot another three-pointer. This time, he shot without interference.
This is a lack of strength. Marbury's three-point shooting ability is not strong. In 18 games with the Timberwolves, he averaged only 20.5% three-point shooting percentage per game. After being traded to the Nets, his shooting percentage increased to 35.7%.
It's a career high, but not much higher.
In a parallel world, Marbury's career three-point shooting percentage in the regular season is 32.5% and in the playoffs is 27.3%, which is below the league average.
Nets center Faik grabbed an offensive rebound and immediately made a second attack to force a shot, but it missed due to Miller's interference. Faik's mind was filled with data. He had no shooting range and could only guarantee it at the basket.
In terms of shooting percentage, the farther you go the better.
This time Miller grabbed the rebound and passed it to Yang Jian. Yang Jian himself dribbled the ball past half court and started the attack.
Yang Jian walked to the left and brought it into the three-point line in one breath. He held the ball with his left hand and changed direction to the middle to pass Kendall Gill. The latter was obviously lacking in physical strength and his lateral speed slowed down.
Yang Jian didn't wait for Kidders and Hendrickson to complete the double-team "closing the door" before he jumped up in front of the free throw line, pulled the lever in the air to avoid Hendrickson's block, and drifted to the right to pick up the basket and score.
107 to 93.
Sun Zhengping said: "Yang Jian scored 67 points. This is too strong."
Zhang Lili said: "The key is that he shoots accurately and can make shots even if he avoids blocking shots. He plays very smart. None of the Nets players are good at blocking shots. He deliberately relies on his talent to crush him."
Marbury dribbled the ball past half-court. Seeing Yang Jian retreating back, he once again chose a three-pointer from the middle. This was the simplest way to score. He shot very resolutely and scored .107 to 96.
The home fans also gave Marbury some applause. They were not afraid that he would score, but they were afraid that if he didn't score, the point difference would widen and enter garbage time. Marbury's 43 points in a single game had already set a career high, and he was also a little excited.
.
Before going to the Chinese Basketball Association to undergo socialist transformation, Marbury's thinking had always been that the individual was greater than the collective. He was not a core player who was good at leading a team to win games.
In the SuperSonics position battle, Yang Jian was double-teamed on the outside and passed the ball to Brad Miller, running to the right corner.
Miller calmly picked up the ball in the middle to support the ball and hit it high. This is the offensive method he coached in the team. If Mason is injured and absent, Schrempf can also teach him how to support the ball in the high post.
Miller took the ball and feinted toward Payton, who was running to the right to meet him, and suddenly passed the ball quickly with both hands to the 45-degree penalty area line on the right. Yang Jian pretended to run back up the line, and then suddenly moved toward the 45-degree line after the fake move.
He made a cut under the basket and received the pass.
Kendall Gill is not as fast as Yang Jian. Today's playing time has expired. How can he block his cutting route? Yang Jian relied on his speed to get rid of the defense. After receiving the ball, he leaped up and bumped sideways into Henry, who was defending.
Derrickson.
Power forward Hendrickson hurriedly covered the defense and saw Yang Jian flying over before he could take off. Yang Jian pressed his opponent's shoulder with his left hand and smashed the ball with his right hand! 109 to 96.
Not only was the goal scored, but the referee's whistle sounded and Hendrickson was called a 21 foul because he did not jump in the reasonable collision area.
NBA's reasonable collision zone was just established last season. After O'Neal was born, he was like no one in the interior with his strong body. As an opponent, most of the interior players who faced him chose to huddle under the basket. When O'Neal
When he turned around with the ball and tried to dunk, he was suddenly blocked in front of him, causing an offensive foul.
In order to improve the viewing experience, so that post players such as O'Neal can dunk without restraint, and defenders can break through as they please, the league has established a reasonable collision zone. This is a semicircle drawn with the basket as the center and a radius of 4 feet.
In the reasonable collision zone, when the opponent is attacking, a defensive player will not be whistled for a foul if he jumps vertically. If he does not jump, regardless of whether he moves his body or not, and if there is physical contact, he will be whistled for a defensive foul.
This season, many inside players are still not used to this rule. It is very common for them to stay in the penalty area and not jump and get called for fouls.
Zhang Lijia shouted: "Yang Jian is so domineering. Even at the end of back-to-back games, he was able to dunk the opponent's big man. This is definitely the best goal of this round."
Sun Zhengping said: "He scored 70 points after adding free throws. This is the third time in his career that he has scored 70 points. Jordan has never scored 70 points."
Zhang Lili said: "The fans started shouting MVP again!"
Amid the cheers of the home fans, Yang Jian steadily hit the extra free throw, 110 to 96.
Chapter completed!
