Chapter 168 Parker Counterattack
No one thought that this would happen against the Spurs. The Grizzlies led the way and their momentum was high.This state lasted for about 7 minutes. At 21:14, the Grizzlies led by 7 points, which was unexpected by everyone.

The Spurs called a timeout.

Jogel was the first to close the team, and he was guessing what countermeasures the Spurs would take.In the comparison of tactics, the Spurs did not make any mistakes. The reason why the Spurs fell behind was Conley's performance.

How to limit personal performance, or increase offensive ability, or replace Ginobili to play pick-and-roll with Sprint. At this time, replacing Parker, who has made no mistakes, will affect the morale of the army.

What to do if you don't replace Parker, or create more opportunities for Duncan.

There is no need to respond to any possibility. Maybe Popovich just wants to boost morale, at least what Jogel is doing now is to boost morale.

Popovich watched the players gather around, without thinking, dignified.Just smiled and shrugged, so casual.

"I think I did a superfluous thing!"

Popovich said, paused!
"I don't think anyone can pass the ball better than Parker. As the coach of the team, I will always encourage Parker to do this. But, as a person, I don't want Parker to do this!"

When Popovich said it depends, Parker raised his brows, and in the deep-set eye sockets, he understood something, but didn't promise anything.

"Duncan, are you a little tired!"

"what!"

Parker is smart and can understand what Popovich is saying. Duncan often doesn't know what Popovich is going to say, so he just talks nonsense. Both of them are like this in front of reporters, let alone in this tactical formation. Woolen cloth.

Just 7 minutes into the game, how could Duncan be tired.

"I see you are more out of breath than me, why don't you come down for a rest!"

"never!"

The question and answer between Duncan and Popovich made the team a lot easier. This is the relationship between Popovich and Duncan. Duncan is the backbone of the Spurs and Popovich's condiment.

"Okay! Let's continue the game!"

This pause is inexplicable, there is no arrangement, no instructions.Popovich deliberately called everyone down, praised Parker in front of everyone, and made fun of Duncan.

What's the matter?If it is a serious rookie, it will definitely go crazy, but these people in the Spurs seem to be used to this style, no one is surprised, but some people are fortunate that they can drink a sip of water and take a rest.

The game continues, the Spurs attack!
Parker held the ball across the field, Leonard came to the low post with his back to Prince, Duncan came to the bottom line and took a step forward for a three-pointer, but refused to take a step, as Popovich said, Duncan seemed tired.

Randolph followed Duncan, pushing Duncan with his hands, thinking in his heart, don't think that I won't defend you in this lazy state.

Parker stood at the top of the arc, and Conley in front of him was fully alert. Parker seemed casual, but he had already raised his attention to the highest point. He underestimated Conley, which was the consequence of being robbed.

Danny Green is on the left, facing Duncan, he is farther than Duncan, standing outside the 3-point line.Qiao Fei followed him closely and had already noticed the situation.

Sprint is not far from Parker, and should be preparing for the pick-and-roll.

Sure enough, Parker moved, heading in the direction of Splinter, Splinter stopped, he wanted to block Conley, Conley was very flexible, and immediately bypassed Splinter, unexpectedly, Parker took advantage of Conley's flexibility, he Not from the direction of Sprint, but from Conley's original position, sprinting.

Conley couldn't get back to the defense, Parker rushed into the paint, and all the defenders were pulled away, but the Grizzlies still had one man, Ruel, and Ruel immediately defended.

Center forwards and defenders are confronting each other in a wide area, and the ones who suffer are always the center forwards with inflexible footwork. There are also special cases, some experienced centers, through anticipation, shoot the guards who break in to death.

It's a pity that it's Parker vs. Ruel now. This is not a contest. Ruel can't keep up with Parker, and his experience is even worse.

Parker throws off Ruel to score.

Jogel saw everything from below, Parker stood at the top of the arc, that is where he has the most complete line of sight, that is the easiest place to assist, and Parker chose to attack there.

Parker used a straight approach, taking advantage of Sprint's body and Ruel's inexperience.

This kind of avoidance is really powerful. This is the weakness of the Grizzlies. Without Gasol Jr., the Grizzlies' inside line is no longer an insurmountable obstacle.

Jogel knew that he was going to call a timeout, and if the opponent caught his weakness, the opponent would attack mercilessly until the line of defense collapsed.

Conley received the ball, the referee's whistle sounded, and Conley dropped the ball and walked back to the Grizzlies.

The timeout should have been used at the most critical moment of the game, but in the first quarter, it was used alternately by the coaches of the two teams. Popovich was full of interest, and Jogel was careful.

Jogel only called a short timeout. According to regulations, he should have a long timeout in the first quarter.Jogel didn't use it, which means that Jogel will call a timeout again, which is Popovich's army.

The short timeout is only 20 seconds. Jogel must seize this opportunity to explain Popovich's tactics clearly, and then arrange new tactics.

Defensive tactics are what the Grizzlies are best at. This time, Jogel arranged a triangle defense.

The first step is a substitution, Koufos goes on, Ruel goes off.

In the second step, Koufos has a low position on the right, Randolph has a low position on the left, and Prince is a little forward at the free throw line, and the three form a triangle.

(Half court defenses are primarily designed to guard a team with a dominant perimeter star. It's not the same as a "triangle plus two" defense that defends two good perimeter players.

This defense includes defending the opposing star player without the ball and double-teaming when he or she has the ball.The goal of the defense is to force the opposing superstar to pass the ball and minimize the chances that he or she will receive a pass back.This defense is a bit of a gamble, and if the opposing team has a good pitcher, you might have to pay a price.But sometimes you need to know who is going to take over the game and you need to make adjustments if other players come forward.See "star" defense and hybrid defense.

Basic Principles - Trigonometry

This defensive tactic includes both man marking and zone defense.We put the best perimeter defender on the team to guard the opposing star, and stay close to him or her at all times, and never leave the star player to cover the defense.If two low post players need to be used, the positions of 3, 4, and X form a triangle, and X3 stands at the top of the free throw arc. X2 and X3, as our "rotation defenders", will alternately complete the task of positioning and double-teaming the opponent's star players. )
Conley and Qiao Fei were outside, trying to mark two people who could make simple cooperation.

The Grizzlies will use this tactic to deal with the Spurs. This is a short timeout, 20 seconds, not enough for Jogel to arrange an offensive tactic. Jogel is not worried about offense. It is only for today. Today, whether it is Conley or Joe Fly, I feel pretty good today.

In the past 7 minutes of the game, Conley and Qiao Fei scored 14 points together. Conley scored 7 points in the fast break and 2 points in the mid-range shot.Qiao Fei scored 5 points, 2 of 1 three-pointers and 1 of 1 points.

I don't know the score, the two teamed up to get 5 assists, Conley 3, Qiao Fei 2.

In the first quarter, Conley played the best, followed by Qiaofei.

In the remaining minutes of the first quarter, Conley and Qiao Fei will also be responsible for the defense on the outside.

The timeout ends and the ball is served at halftime.

As soon as the referee's whistle blew, the Grizzlies immediately changed their expressions, wondering what kind of tactics the opponent was using, triangle defense.Sprint is on the right wing, Duncan is on the left, and Leonard is facing the free throw line.

Tactics are not a secret, just like Sun Tzu's Art of War in China, you can buy it in any bookstore, but it is very difficult for you to actually use it in actual combat.

In basketball games, tactical collisions are also very common, but this time, it was not really such a coincidence. Jogel suddenly felt sweat streaming down, and he thought of a possibility. Popovich must have thought of himself. Knowing how to defend like this, but using such an almost identical defensive tactic, it doesn’t make much sense, but that’s for others. The Spurs are different. The Spurs have a point guard who is almost like a coach on the field. In tactical situations, point guards are the easiest to find flaws.

Popovich guessed the next step, and Jogel was in a passive state all of a sudden. The short timeout was probably wasted. The long timeout reserved by Jogel must be used in the next round, otherwise the Grizzlies would not be able to keep own leading edge.

The ball was delivered and it was in Conley's hands.

As soon as Conley got the ball, he was immediately pinched by Parker and Danny Green. Conley couldn't break through, so he had to pass the ball to Qiao Fei who was unguarded.

As soon as Qiao Fei got the ball, the triangle defensive tactic took effect immediately. Rich Qiao Fei's nearest Leonard defended him.Leonard's height and weight completely abused Qiao Fei.

But Leonard was not careless at all, and followed Qiao Fei closely, keeping a certain distance.

At the beginning of the regular season, the Grizzlies played against the Spurs. In that game, Leonard was still worrying about defending Qiao Fei, thinking that he must not be doing well enough.

The confrontation between the two was short-lived. Later, Popovich changed his tactics and Parker went to defend Qiao Fei. Qiao Fei's performance surprised everyone. That time Qiao Fei almost defeated the Spurs by himself, but Qiao Fei had an accident. Injured and lost to the Spurs.

Qiao Fei left a deep impression on Leonard in that battle, and Leonard also regarded Qiao Fei as an equal enemy.

Those who can defend Randolph are indeed very capable. Leonard's serious attitude made Qiao Fei face difficulties again, or he could pass the ball to Prince.

Prince is vacant.

Now that he thought of it, Qiao Fei didn't hesitate, and immediately passed it to Prince.

However, in just a few tenths of a second, Danny Green actually made up the defense, so fast.

Parker didn't walk away from Conley and didn't even want Conley to catch the ball.

Faced with Danny Green, Prince did not have a good chance. At this time, Prince can only pass the ball. To whom?Prince hesitated and could only pass to Randolph.

What Randolph likes to use most is post-up and step-up. Facing experienced power forwards, post-up is not a good way.Duncan is one of the experienced power forwards.

The last thing he wants to face is Duncan. Duncan is like a fool, but in front of such a fool, Randolph has a feeling that he can't use his strength. It can be seen that Duncan is not a great god who relies on strength. experience.

Randolph didn't have a good way to shake Duncan away, so he could barely make a jumper.

Sprint was in a good position and grabbed the rebound all at once.

The Grizzlies failed this attack and immediately returned to defense.

Jogel gritted his teeth. He could call a timeout, but he didn't.He sacrificed 2 points to learn how Popovich used the Spurs to break the triangle defense.

The ball, of course, was brought across the field by Parker, just after halftime.Conley and Qiao Fei immediately went over to attack, and they faced Parker together, their confidence immediately swelled.

The two even wanted to steal the well-known point guard Parker, but Parker passed the ball directly to the unguarded Danny Green. After Danny Green got the ball, he was immediately blocked by Prince.

This tactic is the same as what Papavich did,
Danny Green's situation is no different than that of Qiao Fei.

Danny Green didn't rush to pass the ball like Qiao Fei, he entangled for a while, and then pushed the ball, which should be in Leonard's direction.

Qiao Fei has already defended Leonard just now, this ball has a few contemptuous meanings.

However, mutations occur in such accidents.Parker ran over, and soon, because Parker ran first, Parker took the initiative, and Parker received the ball from it.

After Parker got the ball, without hesitation, he directly made a jump shot.Conley was a step late and didn't rush to defend, which might allow Parker to make a 2+1
Parker shot, with the fastest speed.

Jogel couldn't believe it, did Popovich use such a tactic?This round, it all depends on Parker's talent.

If Parker can do it, Conley should too.Jogel thought so.

In this way, the two teams clashed again under the silence of the coaches of both sides.

Parker, Parker again, with Parker and Danny Green in a double press situation, Conley made a turnover and was scored by Parker.

Parker is powerful.

Spurs fans are boiling, don't forget, this is the home of the Grizzlies.

Parker is the hero of the Spurs today, saving the rhythm of the game alone.

Jogel was forced to a dead end and left a long timeout, which was supposed to contain Popovich, but the great prospect was overturned by Popovich.

Jogel called a timeout.

He wants to fight back!

Now, 21:20
The Spurs have caught up.

This is really an unpleasant result.

Jogel watched the team members approaching, feeling a little confused.He thought about several tactics, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Until the team members gathered around, Jogel finally let go of his biting lip.

He thought of 1983.

Since the establishment of the "Jordan Rule" in April 1988, the Pistons, who have been humiliated by Jordan and the Bulls many times, eliminated the Bulls three times in the subsequent three playoffs, and achieved a brilliant Bad Boys Corps.Simply put, the Jordan rule is a strategy that the Pistons used against the Bulls back then: "Let go of Jordan" and defend the other 4 players to death. Even if Jordan scored more points, the other 4 players scored very low, and the Bulls would still lose.The core of Jordan's law is: If you dare to come, I will dare to fight.Because Jordan was unstoppable at the time, he used a very violent defensive method. As long as Jordan got the ball, the Piston bad boy used a very violent defense to prevent Jordan from scoring.

"We use Jordan's Law!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this word.

Jordan's law, who is as strong as Jordan.

Parker?Parker is strong, but no one thinks he can be compared with Jordan.

"We have all entered into a misunderstanding. The Jordan Law does not have to be aimed at Jordan. It should be a strong player with touch. For example, Parker!"

The game restarted again.

This is the game between the Spurs and the Grizzlies, with inspiration in the suffering, and faith in the inspiration.

It doesn't matter whether the Grizzlies attack or pinch, they pass it directly to Qiao Fei.

Qiao Fei faced Leonard. This time, Qiao Fei wanted to score. He used his turn to get rid of Leonard, and then made a jump shot.The ball missed at all, and Qiao Fei's shot was a little hasty.

"Why didn't you come in again!"

Qiao Fei started to complain, but he didn't expect that Kang Li, who came from behind, hugged Qiao Fei's shoulder.

"We haven't lost yet, why worry!"

Qiao Fei got a little angry, there was something fierce in his eyes, such a morale-boosting ball didn't go in!
The opponent serves.

The ball was in Parker's hands again, and this time the Grizzlies stuck to the coach's play, with no other formations, and everyone seemed to be minding their own business.

Everyone forgot Parker!

The fans widened their eyes and couldn't believe their eyes. Why didn't the Grizzlies defend Parker?
"It's interesting, it's Jordan's law!"

Parker, who is unguarded, is of course Parker!
Parker made a shot and scored another 2 points.

In such a short amount of time, Parker made 8 shots of his own to go ahead from a 7-point deficit.

Parker didn't think it was a big deal, but the fans were shouting Parker's name at the Commonwealth Stadium.Parker returned to the defense silently. At this time, Parker should be more calm, this is the kingly way.

Parker was let go of the shot. For him who has been sincerely sitting and assisting, this is simply a torment!
However, what Parker respects in playing basketball is victory, as long as he can win, he can play whatever he wants.

Another point is that the Spurs are a winning team. When many people think that they can lose only one game in the regular season, they are still working hard here.Obsessed with every game, when they lose, that is when they really can't do it.They also persisted until the end.

But they are not the only ones who are obsessed with winning. Everyone is eager to win, and the same is true for the Grizzlies.

If you keep losing, then what's the point of fighting!
Whose victory is it?We have to fight on, whoever ends up with blood all over his face, even missing arms and short legs, he stands up, he is the strongest!
Qiao Fei was already boiling, and Parker let him see a new height. Qiao Fei resisted not opening the eye of talent. He wanted to save the answer to the last section, thinking that only then would the real decisive battle be won.
