434. There is no other option!(1/2)
Losing the three-point ability may last up to 8 games!
Liu Mang cannot accept this!
If last season was okay, they were in the counterattack group, and the record was not very stressful in January, but this season is different, the Eagles' winning rate has just reached 40%, except for the Pacers' game, the rest
They must win at least 5 games in the last eight games to ensure that the Eagles reach a 50% winning rate before the start of the devilish schedule in February and March. If he loses his three-point touch in these eight games... Liu Mang feels that it is over! This pair
The Eagles' blow is immeasurable!
So this task must be completed!
What a shame!
But Reggie Miller's peak star card... ability value 92, three-pointer 90, mid-range shot 92, layup 80, speed 91, strength 71... 51% shooting rate, 40%
1 three-point shooting percentage, averaging 24.6 points per game...
Liu Mang wants it too!
With a three-point ability value of 90, before 2010, apart from Peja, only Reggie Miller could achieve this three-point level!
Therefore, in order to complete this task, Liu Mang started a crazy tactical plan...
Coach Kruger was almost furious and at the same time curious, would this work?
As the core, Rahim asked a little weakly: "Ace, are you sure you want to do this?"
"What's wrong Sharif? Are you afraid? What's wrong? Can't you do it? Men can't say no!" Liu Mang excitedly took out the magic weapon.
In Liu Mang's memory, in the original time and space, before Rahim completely lost his love for basketball due to the appearance of the big dog and began to neglect training, he had always been an iron man. From the Grizzlies to the Eagles, he had never been injured due to injuries in the first six seasons.
He missed even one game due to illness, and was later traded to the Trail Blazers. He went to jail, had no intention of training, and gradually suffered from injuries. By 2005, he only played 9 seasons. In the next three seasons, he
He became riddled with injuries and eventually retired.
Regarding training more, Liu Mang believes that training hard within a reasonable range during your career is the best way to maintain your health. Jordan, James, Kobe, and Duncan all still maintain the same position at the age of thirty-four or five.
Their position as the number one player or even the number one player in the league is definitely inseparable from their years of unremitting training.
The fact that people like Nash, Kidd and others can still play so well at the age of thirty-eight or nineteen is also related to the fact that they have been training for many years.
There are many players who fell off a cliff after their physical fitness declined in their 30s. Some, like Tracy McGrady, were born with spinal genetic diseases and cannot be discussed among them. However, the vast majority of them did so because they made a lot of money when they were young and relied on their talent.
He can produce good data, but when his age and physical fitness decline, he will collapse... O'Neal is always so special at this time...
Liu Mang feels that Rahim's physical condition, which can be three or four, has regained the motivation to work hard. With the current hard training, he will definitely do well to stay healthy. He entered the NBA at the age of 19.
Maybe there will be a chance to play small ball with him in the future.
There is a short inside swingman of 2.06 meters who can shoot but not accurately three-pointers. He looks so familiar...
Rahim knew clearly that it was Liu Mang's provocation, and he also knew that casually agreeing to this style of play would be too hasty, but he still couldn't help but want to see if this style of play would work. After all, he had never seen anything like this before.
Lineup and tactics.
"Of course I can do it!" Rahim said forcefully that he was a man.
"OK, let's do this..."
…
…
Thinking back to the tactics Liu Mang drew just now, as well as this lineup, Coach Kruger began to wander again. He really wanted to go back to four years ago and remind himself before his wallet was stolen, so he would not know this person.
I don’t know how to describe this disciple.
Something is going to happen again!
Just like Coach Kruger was looking at the ceiling speechlessly, just when he was still looking forward to what interesting tactics Liu Mang would arrange when he became the "head coach" again, he looked at Liu Mang and Jason Terry,
With the lineup of Barnes, Prince, and Raheem, the scene was quiet except for the footsteps of the players taking the field, which was picked up by the microphone in the stadium, and the referee and the inaudible voices.
When the referees saw the Eagles' lineup, they were stunned for a moment. Fortunately, they were professionals and no one noticed it.
The Pacers players and coaching staff who sent out Tinsley, Reggie Miller, Ron Moser, Al Harrington, and Brad Miller were dumbfounded.
What the hell kind of lineup is this!
Where is the power forward? Where is the center?
It's not that I haven't seen a small lineup before. The Eagles' cavalry company is a small lineup these days. But at least the small lineups these days at least have a power forward. This time, it's better, there is no power forward.
Got it!
Who is the second-highest player on the Eagles? Shooting guard, the rookie with jersey number 22, Tayshaun Prince!
It’s inexplicable! This lineup is here to give points?
Reggie Miller looked at the Eagles' lineup, and then stared at Liu Mang for several seconds. He could guarantee that it was definitely the second-year player's weird move!
After the timeout, the Pacers attacked and Tinsley advanced.
Harrington saw that the opponent's inside line was so weak, so he decisively moved inside for a single. Brad Miller opened up the space with a three-pointer, and Prince defended it.
Harrington leaned on Raheem to ask for the ball, and Tinsley immediately passed it over.
After Harrington received the ball, he bumped back excitedly...but couldn't hit...
Rahim tried his best to hold Harrington in the back. Although Rahim played as a small forward, he was about 10 pounds heavier than Harrington, which is almost four kilograms. Harrington only thought about him.
He is a small forward, but he forgets that Rahim has the body of a power forward!
But it doesn't matter, Harrington's skills are quite comprehensive, he can turn inside and outside, turn around and shoot step-back jumpers...
"Snapped"
The ball thrown by Harrington was slapped back by Raheem and then flew out of bounds!
Rahim looked at Harrington in surprise. Why is this guy so tough? Want to score a goal so easily? Just make some fake moves! This is straight forward. After all, he is now known as "Little Garnett"
ah!
Rahim wrongly blamed Harrington. Harrington had never faced off against him. It would be easy to rely on his strength and wingspan as a power forward to beat a small forward... The main reason is that he is too excited...
…
The ball went out of bounds. The referee saw it accurately. The ball finally hit Harrington's hand and bounced out of bounds. The Eagles had the ball!
Liu Mang was a little surprised. Rahim defended so hard! The key is that he defended such a not-so-tough technical power forward really well!
Not only did he defend himself, but he also got the ball. Liu Mang was a little bit unsure. He looked at the Pacers' lineup and found that as long as O'Neal Jr. was not there and Rahim played center, there was nothing wrong with him!
When the Eagles attacked, Liu Mang originally wanted Rahim to pass the ball directly to the fast break after the opponent scored, but now he is in position and can execute the tactics directly.
Liu Mang received the serve and advanced to the frontcourt. Rahim pulled to the top right corner of the free throw line. Liu Mang passed the ball to Rahim. The moment Rahim received the ball, he carried the ball high with the basket on his back.
lift.
The Pacers players were confused, what kind of operation is this? Raheem doesn't have the height to support him from a high position! Brad Miller is right behind Raheem, and if the ball is passed in, Brad Miller can directly steal it.
At this time, Jason Terry, Liu Mang, and Prince from the Eagles swarmed towards Rahim.
The Pacers players were even more confused. What does it mean to be crowded together?
But the defense still had to be guarded, and the Pacers players crowded together.
Unexpectedly, the Eagles players who had just been huddled suddenly dispersed again. Jason Terry ran towards the right corner. Barnes helped Jason Terry block the chasing Reggie Miller and walked.
The defense was still good. Reggie Miller immediately switched to guard behind Rahim. As long as Rahim dared to turn around and cut in, he would cut the ball regardless of whether he committed a foul or not. Brad Miller switched to the bottom.
Jiao rushed over.
Just when the Pacers were switching defense, Liu Mang helped Prince catch Ron Moser, and Prince went around Raheem and Reggie Miller!
The Pacers players secretly shouted bad! Jason Terry is just a cover! Prince's air cut is the real move!
Harrington blocked the inside lane.
At this time, Rahim passed the ball to Barnes, who was vacated after the pick-and-roll. Prince bypassed Reggie Miller and Rahim and did not run towards the basket, but towards the left bottom.
Corner run.
Reggie Miller, who is very proficient in running tactics, discovered the clue at this time. He saw Liu Mang moving outside the three-point line!
It turns out that not only Jason Terry was a cover, but Prince's movement, which looked like he had a good chance, was also a cover!
Reggie Miller hurriedly chased Liu Mang. Tinsley saw Reggie Miller's movements and chased Liu Mang, but while Rahim threw the ball to Barnes, he turned around and threw the ball away.
Reggie Miller was stuck, and Liu Mang jumped out of the three-point line!
After receiving the ball, Barnes immediately threw the ball to Liu Mang without stopping. Then Barnes blocked Tinsley. When Liu Mang withdrew from the three-point line, he directly took the shot!
When Tinsley and Reggie Miller bypassed the pick-and-roll and jumped in front of Liu Mang, Liu Mang's three-pointer had already been shot!
Perfect movement, perfect pick-and-roll, perfect plan!
Liu Mang's feel for catching the ball and his preparation for shooting are very good, because from the beginning of this tactic, there was no other option, it was him to shoot, it was his three-pointer to end it!
From the beginning, Liu Mang was ready to shoot a three-pointer, there was no other option!
The ball flew through a beautiful arc and hit the target!
This perfect shot timing, fully prepared catch and shoot, Liu Mang's shooting feel after crazy training for more than a year and the addition of bench gangsters, the top three three-point ability in the league of 88 in this era, plus the trigger of a sharpshooter, are also
