Chapter 147 Tactician Carlisle

In the offensive and defensive transition on the court, Kidd ran across the center line with the ball, and first cooperated with Butler in a regular hand-to-hand.

After handing over the ball, Kidd took advantage of the situation and cut in from the left wing. With the help of Nowitzki's screen, he crossed the paint and moved to the right.

At the same time, Marion and Dampier were in the right elbow area, one after the other, standing one after another to form an echelon cover.

Su Yang saw that scene in his eyes, and instinctively realized that it was the floppy + stagger combination tactics commonly used by the Mavericks. He immediately gestured and yelled at Westbrook: "Walk around the screen, around the screen..."

Westbrook bypassed the screen after hearing the sound, caught up with Kidd who was re-catching the ball at 45 degrees on the right, and glanced behind him quickly.

Westbrook's action was to confirm whether there was a back cover, but Kidd did not take the ball and did not act. Instead, he turned and passed it to Nowitzki who was raised to the top of the arc.At the same time, Butler, who used Nowitzki to cover the inside cut, successfully got stuck on the left waist.

Nowitzki took the ball to observe the half court, and lightly lobbed it to Butler, but Sefolosha suddenly reached out and patted it.

Snapped!The basketball rolls to the sideline.

Butler hurriedly bowed and stepped, picked up the basketball in a hurry, stopped and turned to face Sefolosha pressing, hesitating slightly.

But the Mavericks took a lot of trouble to pass the ball to him, and it took a lot of time, and there were only three seconds left in the attack time.

"Wooo..." The audience on the sidelines booed and interfered, and Butler took off against the defense and made a strong three-pointer.

Boom!The basketball hits the hoop and into the net.

Butler spat out his braces, turned back excitedly, and the audience on the sidelines seemed to be splashed with cold water, and the boos stopped abruptly.

"That's okay too..." Su Yang chuckled and shook his head. The Thunder had done the best defense just now, and it was a fairy ball.

The two teams were temporarily tied at 5-5. Westbrook dribbled the ball across the center line and stopped on the right side, raising his hand to signal for another L tactic.

Durant immediately started from the bottom corner on the right, first rushed horizontally to the basket with the cover of Ibaka, then rushed to the top of the arc vertically with the cover of Chandler, and then reached out to catch the basketball. After Westbrook passed the ball, he quickly Use Ibaka to cover the inside cut.

Westbrook, who sprints without the ball, is as fast as lightning, and with the cover of Ibaka, Kidd can only watch his back.

And because Durant ran out with the help of two inside lanes in a row, the area under the basket was so empty that it looked like a road at three o'clock in the morning.

In the blink of an eye, Durant passed the ball back to the basket, Westbrook was almost in sync, and the two easily connected.

Westbrook caught the ball and took off, aiming at the basket was a powerful two-handed dunk, which made the basket buzz.

Cheers broke out in the arena, Su Yang applauded with a smile, and said to himself: "The L tactic invented by Coach Rick Carlisle is really useful. Russell is faster than many point guards. KD's height is often dominant. It's too easy to match up."

Snyder nodded in response: "Tomorrow, we will continue to study the Mavericks video and find a few more tactics that suit us..."

The offensive and defensive transition on the court, Kidd received the ball and pushed for a fast break, rushed to the right wing of the frontcourt in four seconds, and passed the ball to Marion.

Marion took the ball and hit Durant directly with his back, and also raised his elbow, but the referee didn't blow his whistle.

Su Yang was a little annoyed, and reminded Durant to stay close and not let Marion jump, because Marion has the fastest bullet speed in the league today. The advantages are useless and easy to give for nothing.

Durant did as he was told, while Marion chiseled hard several times, only squeezed out a little space, and the center of gravity was completely out of balance.The audience took the opportunity to boo, Marion passed the ball back, stabilized his center of gravity, then received Kidd's pass, and continued to play back.

Perhaps because he knew he couldn't stand it, Marion put on a show, turned around in a hurry to the baseline, and wanted to take off and shoot.

But Durant stuck close to him and had no chance to make a shot. He could only turn up the line again and hurriedly passed the ball back to Kidd.

There were boos all over the court, Kidd caught the ball and raised his hand, and was about to pass it to the top of the arc, when the referee suddenly whistled and whistled for a three-second violation.

After a closer look, it turned out that Dampier entered the paint area ahead of time, intending to get stuck in the paint for an offensive rebound, but unexpectedly, Marion just feinted and Kidd took the ball and didn't rush to make a shot. , into a three-second violation.

Dampier showed a little grievance, shook his head helplessly, then ran to the center line with his head down.

Seeing this, Su Yang clapped his hands and booed: "Come on, Eric! You are the second center in the Western Conference, believe in yourself!"

The audience roared with laughter, but Dampier ignored him and stood straight to the free throw line, following Chandler.

The two teams switched offense and defense, and Westbrook dribbled the ball to the 45-degree three-point line on the right, and raised his hand to signal to continue playing L tactics.

Durant took a synchronized bow and raced toward the corner like a single loop, but Marion this time rounded the screen to catch up.

It is easy to be stopped and run back around the screen. It is a very risky choice, but it can indeed limit Durant from getting the ball.

Amidst the cheers, Durant did not stop and run back. After all, there is Nowitz in the short corner on the right, which is a certain threat.

But Ibaka saw Marion go around the cover, stepped up decisively, and set up a wall to block Kidd first.

Between lightning and flint, Westbrook broke through violently, took a few big strides to the short corner, and rushed to the basket against the defense.

Nowitzki raised his hands high, his feet fluttered and stepped on in small steps to catch up, covering a wide range of areas under the basket.

Westbrook suddenly stopped and passed the ball out calmly. Chandler just finished the screen and cut inside.Everything happened quickly, and Dampier mistakenly thought that Durant was still attacking from the top of the arc, and found that he was deceived and rushed to Chandler.

Snapped!There was a clear sound of thugs, the basketball smashed into the net at the same time, and the referee blew his whistle to call for a foul.

"Nice!" Su Yang yelled into the arena. He was happy with Westbrook's calm choice. He was even happier to see Ibaka offer to cover for Westbrook after finding out that Marion was going around the screen. That means Ibaka Card learn to read game.

Taking advantage of the extra penalty assigned by the referee, Su Yang called Ibaka to the sidelines and whispered the opportunity.

The Thunder were able to complete the L tactical starting position so easily, mainly because Mavericks power forward Dirk Nowitzki was slightly weaker in confrontation, and Ibaka could easily get stuck in the right corner. If it was changed to face Garnett , the difficulty is bound to increase greatly.

Of course, if he were to face Garnett instead, Su Yang would not take the initiative to remind the team to use L tactics.

"After this time, Nowitzki will definitely try to interfere with you. You can take the initiative to make changes. For example, if he goes around and delays you to make a screen, you just turn around and run to the basket, and at the same time boldly call for a pass to remind Russell. ..."

Ibaka nodded again and again, then turned and walked to the sideline of the paint, waiting for Chandler to make a free throw.

Cheers rang out from all around the stadium, and the extra penalty was hit steadily. The Thunder temporarily led the Mavericks 10-5.

The two teams switched offense and defense. According to the usual practice, the Thunder defended the whole court once after free throws to avoid the opponent's long pass and fast break.

Kidd slowly took the ball across the center line, raised his hand and passed to Marion who was raised 45 degrees to the left with the help of Dampier's screen.

The two followed hand to hand, and Kidd also used Dampier's cover to quickly rush to the left waist.

Chandler didn't panic and stayed on the edge of the paint, taking advantage of Kidd's slow mid-range shooting and low shooting percentage.

Kidd hesitated for a while, neither made a shot nor made a breakthrough, but stopped abruptly and turned around, raised his hand and handed the ball to Nowitzki, who was covered by Marion and went down to the left waist, and then rushed to Nowitzki, The receiver passes back and returns to the three-point line.

Nowitzki ran to the 45-degree three-point line to cover again, and Kidd walked and broke through again.

At this time, there was not much time left in the attack. Seeing this, Su Yang yelled for double-teaming, and Westbrook and Ibaka did as they heard.

The double-team suddenly formed, and Kidd made an emergency stop and twisted, trying to pass the ball to Nowitzki who disassembled and bounced to the three-point line.

But Westbrook and Ibaka are too threatening, and Durant is still eyeing him halfway, and the risk of passing the ball is extremely high.

While Kidd was hesitating, Marion, who was temporarily unguarded, made an empty cut and rushed to the basket.

Seeing this, Su Yang yelled a reminder, while Kidd passed the ball at the same time, and Marion took the ball and turned around with a big leap.

Snapped!Sefrosa, who was chasing after the position, took a big risk, grabbed the ball in his hand, turned around and threw it to Westbrook.

The Thunder launched a fast-break counterattack, the frontcourt conducts the horoscope, the basketball moves from left to right, and Durant catches the ball from the 45-degree three-point line.

Boom!The three-pointer hit the circle and entered the net, 13 to 5.

Su Yang clapped his hands, and quickly recalled the Mavericks' tactic just now, feeling that Carlisle is really a master tactician.
