NBA: I really just want to be a second-in-command

Chapter 55 [See the move! 】

The Lakers' bench.

Everyone's eyes were also focused on Lu Yusheng at this moment.

The coaching staff of the Lakers also got together to re-evaluate Lu Yusheng, a rookie.

Shooting coach Mike Pembersey said, "This year's newly drafted Chinese guy looks okay, at least he has good basic passing skills, speed, and consciousness. Xiao, it seems that you have given him a lot of advice in the summer league. "

Brian Xiao said with a smile, "This kid does have potential, so I spent more time on him. After all, the team's No. 1 talent is still a bit weak this year. Training new players may be effective. Now It seems that this kid is indeed worth looking forward to, and after he came on the field, our offense has indeed improved a lot.”

With a single word, Lu Yusheng's performance was equated with his training.

In fact, throughout the summer league, the guidance given to Lu Yusheng by Brian Shaw as the coach was not as useful as a sentence from Magic Johnson.

Brian Shaw cast his eyes on the Zen master beside him, "Phil, what do you think of Lu's performance?"

Phil Jackson was not involved in their discussions.

He kept his gaze fixed on the field, without looking back, and just said lightly, "It's too early to draw conclusions now."

Brian Shaw was somewhat disappointed that he was not recognized by the Zen master. He hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but said, "During the summer league, I found that this kid was good at passing the ball, so I specially trained him to play pick-and-roll tactics. Now it seems , He does have some accomplishments in this set of tactics."

The implication is that Lu Yusheng's pick-and-roll tactics are also due to his training.

Zen Master frowned and said, "It's not a good habit to easily change the established tactics on the court. Although we often say that point guards should flexibly respond to tactics according to the opponent's defense, that refers to the use of small tactics. , Major adjustments in tactics and strategies should be made by us, and he is a bit overstepping, do you understand what I mean?"

Brian Shaw was somewhat dissatisfied with this, "But our triangle offense has indeed been killed and completely restricted by the Suns. If we don't make changes, I'm afraid it will still be difficult to open the situation."

Zen Master glanced at him and said calmly, "How do you know I don't have a strategy to deal with it? The rhythm of the game after the opening was completely within my expectations. The Suns still used their strategy from last season to beat us, so we It is impossible to play the effect, but I am not completely unprepared, in fact, I just planned to make tactical adjustments, but I did not expect that this kid made his own decisions and changed his tactics on the field."

Brian Shaw was taken aback.

He knows that Zen master is definitely not an afterthought. He has followed Phil Jackson for many years since he was a player and is now an assistant coach of the Lakers. He knows Zen master's basketball wisdom and his insight into the game is always above everyone.

It seems that Lu Yusheng's arbitrarily adjusted tactics really disrupted Zen Master's own tactical plan.

Zen master said meaningfully, "Xiao, there is something wrong with what you said just now. It's not that the triangle offense was restricted by the Suns, it's just that Luke Walton was targeted. The triangle offense is not limited to those two attacks."

Brian Shaw asked, "Then... Lu's change... do you want to continue? Or replace him and implement according to your previous tactics."

"That's not necessary," Zen master said, "I really didn't expect that this kid has good pick-and-roll skills, so let him play first. Anyway, I guess it will be adjusted soon."

Brian Shaw asked puzzled, "You mean... the Suns can limit Lu's pick-and-roll tactics?"

Zen Master smiled, "Xiao, don't forget, they were the team in the Western Conference finals last year, and they have a player like Nash. Besides, the pick-and-roll tactic is their own signature tactic. Don't they know how to solve it?"

Brian Shaw nodded in conviction.

Zen Master looked at Lu Yusheng on the field with great interest, "But I am really interested, Lu, how he will deal with the adjustment of the sun."

As he spoke, Zen Master turned his attention to Lu Yusheng on the court with great interest.

On the court, it is still the Lakers' offensive round!
Lu Yusheng held the ball, but Bynum still brought him up for the pick-and-roll!

After the pick-and-roll, Bynum quickly went down to the basket!

Lu Yusheng was ready to face the pincer attack and was looking for a space to pass the ball.

But suddenly, he was surprised to find that,

The Suns did not flank him this time, but chose to switch defenses!
This surprised Lu Yusheng for a moment, because after the switch, it was Nash defending Bynum and Stoudemire defending Lu Yusheng.

In this way, whether it is Bynum playing Nash, or Lu Yusheng playing Stoudemire, there are opportunities for both sides!
Moreover, Bynum, an American-style heavy center, has an absolute advantage against Nash, who is originally weak in size.

This strategic adjustment of the Suns made Lu Yusheng somewhat puzzled.

But he didn't think about it, he made a fake move, and then passed the ball to Bynum, who had already cut in.

After all, Bynum has a greater advantage.

What Lu Yusheng didn't expect was that the moment he passed the ball inside!

Dior suddenly pushed over, and quickly exchanged defenders with Nash, and Dior will defend Bynum!

At the moment when Nash exchanged defenders with Dior, he didn't stop at all, and exchanged defenders with Lagabel again with lightning speed!
In this way, Nash is defending Vujacic, the first position is defending the second position, Vujacic is a white shooting guard, and he does not have the ability to eat alone like Kobe, Nash does not suffer at all when defending.

As a powerful fourth position, Diaw can also defend Bynum at no disadvantage. Moreover, Bynum's position with the ball is far from his comfortable attack zone!
And Lagabel, who switched defenses, as the defensive champion at the 2nd position, defending Odom at the 3rd position, can also limit him!

The three-man defense at this moment caught Lu Yusheng and the Lakers by surprise! !
After the pick-and-roll, he lost his advantage in an instant.

Lu Yusheng secretly admired it, which is another reason why the Suns team in front of him can achieve great success.

While people are amazed by their mercury-like running and bombing offense, they often overlook that their defense is also extremely good.

In every position except Nash, there are defensive champions who can swing the defense, and can switch defenses infinitely!

This is not only the basis for them to be able to play defensive counterattacks, but also gives them the confidence to calmly deal with various tactics.

The young Bynum ate Dior with his back alone, but his strength was not inferior to his Dior, and he was firmly pushed outside the three-second zone!
Lu Yusheng hurriedly opened his hands to ask for the ball, but Bynum was already a bit on top at this time. A center forward by himself couldn't hit the opponent's [-]th position, and he was somewhat unable to get off the stage.
He didn't even notice Nash who was approaching quietly!

Snapped!
Nash made a sudden move and slapped the basketball away from the side!

At the same time, Lagabel and Marion have already played at full speed!
Whoops!

Everyone in the Suns started to play quickly almost at the same time!

The thunderous counterattack and the fast break started! ! !
This is their familiar rhythm!
The long hair of Nash, the son of the wind, fluttered back, and a precise long pass reached Lagabel!
Dunk! !
Although Lu Yusheng was the first to run back to the defense, he still couldn't stop the Suns' full-line fast break.

Lu Yusheng gritted his teeth.

Offensive mistakes, and lost two points, in fact, not worth the frustration.

But what troubled Lu Yusheng was that Sun's defensive adjustment, his pick-and-roll tactics, it can be said that it is basically impossible to continue playing...
