Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

At this moment, head coach Budenholzer could no longer sit still. He urgently called a timeout and walked to the players with a livid face.

"What's going on?" Budenholzer's voice was full of anger and disappointment. He looked around at the players around him, and everyone's face was full of frustration and uneasiness. "Our Where is the defense? What I see is chaos and disorganization! The defense is as slow as a turtle. Do you want the opponent to score freely under our basket? "

The players lowered their heads, and no one dared to meet the coach's sharp gaze.

They knew that this mistake was not just a technical or tactical problem, but more a problem of attitude and enthusiasm.

Budenholzer took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

As a head coach, he can't just vent his emotions, but also needs to give specific guidance and suggestions.

"What's the spirit of the Bucks?" Budenholzer suddenly asked, his voice echoing in the empty arena.

"Tenacity, hard work, unity!" The players responded in unison. Although their voices were a little low, every word revealed firm determination.

"So, please look at me now," Budenholzer's voice suddenly rose a few points, "We can't go on like this anymore. We need to strengthen our defensive intensity. Everyone must try their best to defend. I You are not required to be perfect, but at least let me see your attitude and determination!”

The players raised their heads one after another and looked at the serious and determined face of the head coach.

They know that at this time, what is needed is not explanation and justification, but action and change.

"From now on, we have to make defense the first priority." Budenholzer continued, "I don't care how many points you can score on the offensive end, but if the defense is not good, everything is empty talk. I hope that in In the next game, I can see you defending like a mad dog, fighting for every rebound, and blocking every attack."

He paused and glanced at each player's face, as if to see into their hearts, "I know you are all tired, and I also know you are all trying your best. But this game means a lot to us. , we can’t give up easily, so cheer up and fight for our team and our honor!”

The players were infected by the coach's words, and their fighting spirit was rekindled in their eyes. Although there was not much time left in the game, they decided to do their best to defend, attack, and fight for every scoring opportunity.

Budenholzer felt a sense of relief as he watched the players bounce back.

"Okay," Budenholzer clapped his hands, "let's get back on the court! Remember what I just said, strengthen the defensive intensity, increase the speed of retreat, and maintain teamwork. I believe we can reverse this situation. game!”

After the timeout, the players returned to the court, and the Bucks showed a completely different mental outlook. Their eyes shone with determination and fighting spirit, as if they were ready to reverse the game. The core of this strategy is the team's core players-Antetokounmpo and Bledsoe.

With the referee's whistle, the game restarts.

In the first attack, Antetokounmpo quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt. He keenly observed the situation on the court and looked for opportunities to break through. Suddenly, he quickly moved to the top of the arc. Bledsoe understood it and immediately formed a tacit cooperation with him.

Antetokounmpo set up a clever screen at the top of the key, attracting the defender's attention. At the same time, Bledsoe broke through from the top of the arc to the left like a bolt of lightning. His speed was extremely fast and dazzling.

The defender was confused by Antetokounmpo's screen and failed to follow Bledsoe in time.

At the same time as Bledsoe broke through, Bucks center Lopez also set a second screen for Bledsoe at the free throw line. His huge body blocks the defensive player's line of sight, allowing Bledsoe to break through to the inside more easily.

At this moment, Antetokounmpo and Lopez's double pick-and-roll tactics played a huge role.

Bledsoe used the cover of the two men to shuttle through the crowd like a flexible snake. He cleverly changed direction and turned around, passing one defensive player after another, and finally reached the three-second zone.

The Nets players have been left behind, leaving only an empty basket in front of Bledsoe. He took a deep breath, adjusted his touch, and then took off to shoot.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell steadily into the basket.

"Shh!"

The sound of the goal was clear and sweet, echoing in the sky above the stadium.

Bledsoe excitedly pumped his fists and hugged his teammates in celebration.

This offense not only demonstrated the superb skills and tacit cooperation of the Bucks players, but also reflected their fighting spirit and determination after returning from the timeout.

The double pick-and-roll tactics of Antetokounmpo and Lopez caught the Nets players off guard, and Bledsoe's breakthroughs and emergency mid-range shots took the tactics to the extreme.

In the next round, after successful cooperation, the confidence of the Bucks players greatly increased.

They realized that through the double screen set by Antetokounmpo and Lopez, they could effectively tear apart the opponent's defense and create excellent scoring opportunities for the team. Therefore, in the next offense, the Bucks decided to repeat their old tactics and once again used this tactic to attack the Nets' defense.

Bledsoe quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt and formed a tacit cooperation with Lopez and Bledsoe. This time, they were ready to use double coverage again to create offensive opportunities.

Antetokounmpo set up a screen at the top of the arc, and Lopez also stood near the free throw line, ready to provide a second screen for Bledsoe at any time. Bledsoe was like a cheetah, ready to go, ready to break through again with the help of the two men's cover.

However, this time, Nets defensive player Robinson was well prepared. He predicted Bledsoe's breakthrough route in advance and quickly stood in a suitable position, preparing to give him strong defense when Bledsoe broke through.

Just when Bledsoe was about to launch a breakthrough, he was keenly aware of Robinson's defensive intentions. Bledsoe did not blindly continue to break through, but flexibly changed his tactics. Using a ground pass, he cleverly passed the ball to Antetokounmpo who was cutting to the basket.

Antetokounmpo hasn't had such an opportunity to attack the frame for a long time. He rushed to the basket like a beast and received Bledsoe's pass.

The moment he received the ball, Antetokounmpo felt unprecedented strength and confidence. He took long strides and rushed to the basket, ready to show off his excellent physical fitness and dunking skills.

As Antetokounmpo sprinted, the air under the basket seemed to be shaken by him. He leaped high, held the basketball tightly with both hands, and dunked hard toward the basket.

At this moment, time seemed to have frozen, and everyone's eyes were focused on this majestic figure.

"boom!"

A loud noise broke the silence, and Antetokounmpo dunked with both hands!

His excellent physical fitness and amazing jumping ability were fully demonstrated at this moment. The basketball bounces off the rim and then falls steadily into the net.

The Bucks fans in front of the TV are excited! They cheered for Antetokounmpo's wonderful dunk, and the Bucks players gathered around excitedly to celebrate this wonderful goal.

Antetokounmpo waved his fists and had a victorious smile on his face. He knows that this goal is not only an affirmation of his ability, but also a testimony to the tacit cooperation of the whole team.

And Bledsoe also stepped forward to high-five Antetokounmpo to celebrate. This goal is inseparable from his flexible passing and the tacit cooperation of his teammates.

The Nets players seemed a little frustrated and failed to prevent the Bucks' offense. But the game continues, and they must quickly adjust to the next challenge.

In the NBA, every detail may affect the direction of the game, and every point is crucial.

At this moment, the faces of the Nets players were full of tension and anxiety. There was no other reason. Just after the timeout, the Bucks had successfully attacked twice in a row and quickly opened up the score. This made the Nets players feel unprecedented pressure.

Brunson stood in the frontcourt, taking a deep breath and trying to calm his excitement. He looked at Robinson in the middle, and the two had a tacit understanding for many years that allowed them to understand each other's intentions without words.

Pick-and-roll, this is one of their best tactics, and it is also the key to their urgent need to regain their rhythm.

Brunson dribbled forward flexibly and formed a perfect pick-and-roll cooperation with Robinson. Brunson is like a flexible snake, weaving through the crowd. He cleverly changes direction and turns, trying to get past defenders.

However, the Bucks' defense was very tight, keeping a close eye on Brunson and not giving him any chance to easily break through.

Seeing that there was no hope of a breakthrough, Brunson decisively chose to distribute the ball. Seeing a glimpse of Durant on the outside, he was ready to catch the ball, so a precise pass flew to Durant.

Durant caught the ball steadily, adjusted his posture and prepared to shoot.

Durant's shooting skills are very good, but this time, under tremendous pressure, he missed.

He tried to force a three-pointer, but the basketball missed the basket. At this moment, the air in the entire arena seemed to freeze. The Nets players stood there, unable to believe what was happening in front of them.

Power forward Porzingis struggled to grab the offensive rebound under the basket in an attempt to save the mistake.

Porzingis is tall and has long arms, and is the patron saint of the Nets. However, facing Antetokounmpo's defense, his second attack still failed to hit the target.

With his excellent defensive ability and physical fitness, Antetokounmpo successfully interfered with Porzingis's shot and let the basketball pop out of the frame again.

The Bucks protected the backcourt rebounds and took the opportunity to launch a fast break.

Antetokounmpo advanced to half court with the ball and keenly observed the opportunity for Middleton on the other side to be in a wide open space.

Antetokounmpo was delighted and passed the ball to Middleton in a wide range without hesitation.

After Middleton received the pass from Antetokounmpo, he quickly adjusted his posture.

Standing outside the three-point line, facing the empty basket, he took off and shot in one movement.

After the basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, it fell steadily into the basket.

"Whoa!" The sound of the goal was clear and sweet, and the fans were instantly excited and gave out warm cheers, cheering for the Bucks' wonderful goal.

After the three-pointer was hit, the Bucks had succeeded in attacking for three consecutive rounds and had a 7:0 spurt.

The mood of the Nets players hit rock bottom and they faced an unprecedented dilemma.

After the Bucks succeeded in attacking in three consecutive rounds and hit a 7:0 climax, Lu Yong decisively called a timeout. He stood on the sidelines with a livid face, obviously extremely dissatisfied with the team's performance.

"Oh, look at this Bucks team. They succeeded in attacking for three consecutive rounds and directly hit a 7:0 climax!" Yang Yi, a well-known domestic commentator, commented excitedly, his eyes fixed on the field. The big screen was replaying the wonderful scoring moments of the Bucks just now.

"It's true. The Bucks' offense during this period has been very sharp. Whether it's a fast break or a positional battle, they can find the opponent's flaws." Another commentator, Wang Meng, nodded in agreement. At the same time, he also noticed the Nets head coach. Lu Yong's gloomy face said, "Coach Lu must be having a headache now. The Bucks have never thought of such an offensive attack by the Nets before."

Yang Yi smiled and said: "Basketball games are like this, ever-changing. Look, isn't Coach Lu called a timeout? He needs to make adjustments to the team's defense and can no longer let the Bucks score so easily. ”

"Yes, and I think the Nets' previous lead may have made them a little careless, thinking that this game would be easily won." Wang Meng added, "But now it seems that the Bucks are obviously not that easy to deal with. They have With strong strength and teamwork ability, once he finds the rhythm, he can launch such an attack wave.”

Yang Yi nodded and said in agreement: "Indeed, we cannot relax our vigilance every minute and every second on the basketball court. What the Nets need to do now is to readjust their defensive strategy and not let the Bucks break through so easily. Line of defense."

After a slight pause, Wang Meng continued: "But having said that, the Bucks' offense during this period is indeed worthy of praise. The cooperation between their players is very tacit, whether it is passing in fast breaks or running in positional battles." Their positioning and support all show their superb basketball skills.”

"Yes, especially the performance of Antetokounmpo and Middleton, they are simply two powerful weapons for the Bucks' offense." Yang Yi sighed, "Antetokounmpo's physical fitness and basketball skills are top-notch, and Middleton's perimeter The shooting ability is also very good. The cooperation between the two of them makes the Bucks' offense more diverse."

Wang Meng also lamented: "Yes, this game is undoubtedly a huge challenge for the Nets. They need to re-examine their defensive strategy and make adjustments as soon as possible. Otherwise, they may suffer a comeback in this game ”

"Yes, yes, the outcome on the basketball court is often decided in an instant." Yang Yi said, "Now it depends on whether the Nets can adjust in time. If they can withstand the Bucks' offensive, If they strengthen their defense, they still have a chance to regain the initiative in the game.”

The two commentators enthusiastically discussed the situation of the game and the performance of both teams in the live broadcast room. While expressing appreciation for the Bucks' continuous offense, they also pointed out areas where the Nets need to improve.

At this moment on the court, the Nets players are also making intense tactical arrangements and adjustments under the leadership of head coach Lu Yong, hoping to regain their form in the next game and regain the initiative in the game.

The players walked to the bench one after another, each with their heads lowered, not daring to express their anger.

Lu Yong looked around and scolded: "Look at your performance just now, does it look like a championship team? The defense is so soft that the Bucks score so easily! I tell you, this is not us The level that the Nets should be!”

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, pointing his fingers at the players: "I have said before that leading the score is not a wasted capital! You guys, would you mind turning a deaf ear to my words? Look at the Bucks, how they play. , We go all out in every attack, and we go all out in every defense. And you start to slack off after a few points, if this continues, sooner or later we will be overturned!”

The players all looked ashamed, knowing that Lu Yong was telling the truth.

During this period of the game, they did relax a bit, thinking they were ahead and could rest easy. But now it seems that such an idea is so naive and ridiculous.

Lu Yong took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then continued: "Okay, now what we have to do is not to blame each other, but to find out the problem and solve it. In the next game, I want to see you strengthen your defense and play more aggressively. Don't let the Bucks score so easily anymore."

He paused and continued: "On the offensive end, we must also be more aggressive. Don't be afraid of mistakes, dare to break through and dare to shoot. Only in this way can we regain the initiative in the game."

Lu Yong's words made the players wake up from a dream.

Everyone nodded to express their understanding and were determined to give their best in the next game.

This game is not over yet, they still have a chance to prove themselves again.

"Remember," Lu Yong said at last, "a basketball game is not only a competitive sport, but also a spiritual contest. We cannot relax our vigilance just because we are ahead for a moment. We must always maintain focus and enthusiasm for the game. Only by Only in this way can we become true champions.”

After hearing this, the players' morale was greatly boosted, and they were all gearing up to show off their skills in the next game.

Coach Lu Yong's reprimand is to allow them to better recognize the reality and adjust their state. They also believe that under the leadership of coach Lu Yong, the Nets will be able to regain their state and win.

At the end of the timeout, Lu Yong once again emphasized the importance of defense: "Defense wins the championship. This sentence is not empty talk. Each of you must keep in mind the meaning of this sentence. You must always remain vigilant and focused on the court, Never let your opponent score easily.”

The players nodded in agreement, understanding the importance of defense and what to do next. (End of chapter)
