The Warriors attacked, and the players opened up their positions and used Princeton tactics.
The Warriors are not very suitable for this tactic. Adelman asked rookie Todd Fuller to practice supporting the offense during the preseason training camp, which was a bit overwhelming.
In a parallel world, Adelman is an overrated coach who is very famous and has never won a championship. He is very paranoid in his employment, never paying attention to defense and even giving up defense for offense.
His masterpiece "Princeton System" has requirements for players' personal abilities. Not every power forward can pass the ball as fancy as Chris Webber, and not every center is named Divac. And in the Princeton tactics
In the middle, whether in transition between offense and defense or in positional attack, the most important thing is to find the center.
Todd Fuller was forced to develop his support ability, and he failed as expected. He had never done this kind of work in college. Not only did he not have the ability to support, he also had no shooting range. He would be left open if he pulled out of the penalty area.
Todd Fuller played very poorly in the preseason, and was considered by Warriors fans to be a parallel import. Fortunately, Joe Smith has the mid-range shooting ability to spread the distance. The two move in the high and low posts and can occasionally play simple coordination.
Joe Smith took the ball in the middle to attract Kemp's defense and passed the ball to the basket in the middle. Todd Fuller received the ball and beat Buck Williams, then turned the ball and scored. 2 to 2.
Williams' weight is too light, and his confrontation ability is not as good as when he was young. No matter how experienced he is, he cannot guard against heavy inside players.
On the other hand, Todd Fuller's heavy weight and slow movement have become disadvantages. The only thing he is good at is preventing low post plays. There is no player on the Sonics who mainly plays post plays.
Payton played a pick-and-roll with Kemp in the middle, leading Joe Smith to pass the ball to the right side. Yang Jian slid down the baseline to the right corner and received the pass. He feinted the ball and then changed direction, relying on Sprewell to go
Breakthrough at the basket.
Due to his size, Williams' screen effect is not as good as that of the big man. Sprewell's pursuit speed is very fast and he can easily avoid the screen, but Yang Jian only needs to catch the ball and start the ball, which is enough for the opponent.
Yang Jian's explosive power is better than Sprewell, and he can forcefully take off and dunk in a close confrontation.
Todd Fuller saw Yang Jian making a layup and rushed to cover up the defense. Yang Jian jumped up to pull the lever without shooting, and passed the ball to the center with both hands.
He saw Payton cutting in the middle, and used his body to squeeze away Mark Price to catch the ball. Payton easily made a layup, and Todd Fuller and Sprewell were both attracted by Yang Jian and could not make up for it.
Defense.4 to 2.
Even if Todd Fuller hadn't been prompted by Yang Jian to jump up, it would be useless if he could turn around and defend Payton. Williams on the left was empty, and Payton would have a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation and pass the ball.
Zhang Lili said: "It's the connection between Yang Jian and Payton again, playing twice in a row. Their tacit understanding has surpassed that of Jordan and Pippen. The two Bulls stars mainly played in singles and did not assist each other many times.
.”
Sun Zhengping laughed and said: "Yang Jian also assisted his teammates to shoot away first in the last game. He did not have to take the shot himself. But if the opponent does not double-team, he will definitely show off his power."
The Warriors used the simplest offensive method. Price played a pick-and-roll with Joe Smith from the outside, moved sideways to the right and shot a three-pointer. Payton was blocked, Kemp didn't guard him, and Price hit
A hit with a time difference of 4 to 5.
Payton dribbled the ball past halftime and passed it to Schrempf first. The SuperSonics have three organizational points on the field, which is unmatched by other teams in the league. All three players can organize offense and can also play in isolation with the ball.
, the ball moves extremely smoothly.
Schrempf did not play alone, but passed the ball to Yang Jian, who moved 70 degrees to the right, and ran to the right corner.
Yang Jian received the ball and changed direction to the middle without stopping. He took a super quick step to distance himself from the chasing Sprewell, pulled the ball and took a small step towards Joe Smith with his left foot to the left and his right foot to the right.
A big step towards extraordinary success.
Yang Jian has practiced the European step very skillfully and can make appropriate choices according to the opponent's position. Although there are only two options, left and right, it is very practical.
He attracted center Todd Fuller's cover but didn't make a move. He passed the ball to Kemp who was cutting on the right side. Kemp jumped up and dunked with one hand and scored! 6 to 5.
Todd Fuller turned slowly and did not dare to try to block Kemp under the basket. If he jumped, he would only become a backdrop for dunks. Yang Jian could have scored the ball himself, but passed it to Kemp
The dunk is definitely more beautiful, it is a top-five ball performance.
When the Warriors attacked, Sprewell ran to catch the ball on the right side, faced Yang Jian at 60 degrees and made a three-pointer, but missed due to interference. He played very simply, and Adelman allowed him to do it because he was the team member.
’s leading scorer.
Kemp grabbed the backcourt rebound and passed it to Payton on the right, who quickly advanced to the frontcourt and passed to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian caught the ball with his left hand outside the left three-point line and paused. He moved his right hand closer and made a fake gesture of praying to Buddha, giving the illusion that he was trying to shoot a three-pointer. He attracted Sprewell to raise his arm and step forward to defend, holding the ball with his left hand.
One step towards success.
Sprewell was slower than Yang Jian. Once he was staggered, there was nothing he could do. He even tried to pull someone for a foul but failed to stop him.
Yang Jian's breakthrough from the left attracted Mullin to cover up, and he passed to Schrempf, who was cutting in the middle. The latter dunked the basketball with one hand and scored .8 to 5.
Sun Zhengping said: "Yang Jian sent four assists in the opening game, attracting the defense to pass the ball, and driving his teammates to open up."
Zhang Liji said with a smile: "He is not in a hurry to score. He is too far ahead in the scoring list and can let others catch up."
Sun Zhengping said: "I think he also has a chance to win the assists title. It is not difficult for him to average double figures in assists per game. It just depends on how he wants to play."
The Warriors played a pick-and-roll, Price changed to the left and released the ball to the high post. Joe Smith feinted in the face of Kemp, and the pull-up jumper missed due to slight interference from Kemp.
Yang Jian grabbed the rebound in the backcourt and quickly advanced with the ball to launch a counterattack. Sprewell was also afraid of this. He defended closely and was forced away by Yang Jian. Yang Jian dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Price thought
Stepping forward to steal the ball, Yang Jian took advantage of the situation and passed the ball to Payton.
Payton took the ball in the middle and took three steps to score a simple one-handed dunk. 10 to 5.
Coach Adelman shook his head slightly on the sidelines with a dull expression. Why don't you follow the routine? You have to shoot!
Yang Jian: I don’t shoot, I just pass the ball.
Yang Jian will naturally shoot when it's time to shoot. How can he not pass the ball when his teammates are empty? Today he has to play in a reasonable way. He just scored 71 points in the last game. If he doesn't pass the ball this time, his teammates will have objections.
Yang Jian expressed his gratitude to everyone at the dinner party yesterday and promised that he would not often take up a lot of shooting rights. As long as his teammates are in good condition, he is willing to pass the ball. He must keep his word. He has never thought about averaging super high points per game this season. As long as his teammates are in good condition, he will pass the ball.
A little taller than Jordan is enough.
Sprewell ran to the outside on the right to catch the ball and shoot. Yang Jian just stepped forward and stretched out his hand to interfere slightly, and the ball went in. 10 to 8.
Yang Jian was very relaxed on the defensive end today and had no intention of seriously defending at all. The Warriors started with a poor record of 1 win and 3 losses and basically no defense. This kind of opponent is the most suitable for attacking. He is not afraid of capsizing in the gutter. If the Warriors play well,
Just carefully guard against one wave in the second half.
Sprewell tried his best to defend Yang Jian, and he was already a little depressed at the moment. He tried various methods of defense last season. Whether it was keeping a distance or getting close, Yang Jian had a way to deal with it.
This time Yang Jian caught the ball in the right corner of Todd Fuller's side again. When the rookie encountered this situation, he chose to follow the coach's pre-game arrangement and pounced out to double-team Yang Jian with Sprewell.
.
Yang Jian took the ball and moved it laterally to the left. He jumped quickly to create a passing space and passed it to Payton in the middle. At this time, Buck Williams was open. Payton did not pass the ball and relied on Price to catch the ball.
Breakthrough layup.
Price's defense has never been very good. He rarely even fouled, and his defense was very clean. Then he missed the ball completely, and Payton easily picked the basket and scored. 12 to 8.
Zhang Lili shouted: "It's Yang Jian's assist again. The SuperSonics made 6 of 6 shots in the opening game. They were all easy shots from Yang Jian, which penetrated the Warriors' defense."
Sun Zhengping said: "This time he really wants to reach double figures in assists in a single quarter. Does he want to win the scoring and assists titles together?"
Zhang Lijia smiled and said: "If he hits 3010 this season, he will probably be elected as MVP unanimously."
