i have a coaching book

Chapter 13
Marbury supported his back with both hands, looked up at the score, his eyes became a little cold, but the blood in his heart did not cool down, but blazed up. It's time, I came by myself!
Pushing the ball forward, Marbury didn't find Stoudemire to pick and roll, but stepped down and dribbled the ball continuously. Suddenly, he made a feint, forced a breakthrough on the right side of JR-Bremmer, and entered the penalty area. Boozer let go of the ball. Tadmire, and JR-Bremer flanked each other back and forth.

Stoudemire went down the middle and responded to the basket. Marion ran back to get rid of James, and also cut to the basket on the left.

Marbury threw it into the air, which was an alley-oop assist.

I saw Marbury take a European step. In the double-teaming of Boozer and JR-Bremmer, he made a strong layup, dodged in the air to block the block, and when his center of gravity was lost, he hooked the basketball with his right hand and dropped the basketball. Basket, the whole body also fell off the sidelines.

The basketball was on the hoop, spun twice, and fell into the net.

Two points scored!

90:87.

Although the ball was played with some reluctance, it was a stumbling towards the basket, but it was Marbury's tough response to the victory.

He could have scored easily, but chose to single-handedly challenge the entire defense of the Cavaliers.

Marbury's lone wolf nature is fully reflected at this moment.

Marbury quickly stood up and quickly returned to defense. In the main arena of the Suns, MVP slogans sounded sporadically.

Immediately afterwards, the fans and audience gave encouraging applause to the core of the team who dared to fight the most. Although he was a bit 'independent', his 'wolf' nature was fully displayed.

The Cavaliers were not to be outdone, James dribbled the ball to half court and observed the situation.

Lin Bai started to run without the ball, first went around to the right corner, took advantage of JR-Bremer's blocking, then slid the bottom line to the basket, and ran to the left three-point corner, which was also a three-point red area .

Ilgauskas was born in Europe, and with a tacit understanding, he came to a closed screen and locked Joe Johnson, who was chasing behind, in the low position on the left.

At this time, James broke through Marion forcefully, and made a ground pass in the penalty area to the left three-point corner.

Jack Voskull desperately rushed to the corner of the three-pointer to make up defense.

I saw Lin Bai caught the ball and glanced at the three-point line, slightly bent his knees, took off lightly, bent his wrist, pulled the basketball away from his fingertips, and the basketball flew out in a very high arc.

With a swish, there was a crisp netting sound.

At the left three-point corner, the hand raised the knife and dropped, the basketball fell into the net, and the net splashed.

Three point hit.

The Cavaliers used a wonderful three-pointer to catch up with the score.

90:90.

Lin Bai's performance was eye-catching. He hit three three-pointers and scored 10 points in just over two minutes on the court. The most chilling thing is that how he made shots was as good as God's help!

The game was stopped directly, and the Suns coach Frank Johnson called a timeout to prevent the Cavaliers from playing smoothly, and took away the victory of the game.

D'Antoni was thoughtful on his face, staring at Lin Bai who was walking towards the coach's bench, with a mysterious light shining in his eyes.

The head coach of the Suns, Frank Johnson, was holding a tactical board with a dignified look on his face. Jack was a little slow to make up the defense, and he was beaten twice by the Cavaliers. Could it be that he could only be removed?

However, the Suns didn't have anyone on the inside. If Jack, who was the tallest, was replaced, who would he use for the inside?
It seems that the only way to play last season is to let Stoudemire play center.

Frank Johnson made a decision, and said loudly: "After the Cavaliers replaced Lin Bai, their outside offense was revived. If we want to win, we must suppress Lin Bai. Joe, you have to defend hard. Him, the other guys, watch the screens and don't give him open shots."

Then, Frank Johnson pointed to the tactical map on the tactical panel, and continued: "Next, Anferney will replace Jack and play with Amare, Stephen, Sean, and Joe. We will run and bomb. The position needs to be changed. For a moment, Amare plays center, Sean plays power forward, Anferney plays small forward, and other positions remain unchanged. Tactical position, play diamond position, Stephen pay attention to organizing assists, pay attention to shooting from the outside, Sean, your running Bit, Amare, your pick and roll. Last season, we used this style of play and almost overturned the Spurs. The Cavaliers are nothing. Everyone, work harder and win the game."

Coach Frank Johnson applauded vigorously to cheer for the players.

After setting up the decisive battle tactics, his heart also raised his heart, his eyes were full of expectations, looking forward to the 02-03 season, making the Suns a dark polo team, rushing to the playoffs, and the running and bombing tactics can make great achievements again. Bring on a win.

The timeout ends and the game resumes.

The Suns had the ball, Marbury held the ball outside the three-point line to observe his teammates' running positions, JR-Bremmer was the main defense, and stepped forward to interfere.

Stoudemire and Marion are separated on the left and right sides of the corners of the paint area, and Boozer and Ilgauskas are man-to-man.

Hardaway pulled to the left three-point corner, stood still, and James watched the defense, followed closely behind.

Joe Johnson ran to the right three-point corner, and Lin Bai watched closely.

The five players of the Suns stand in positions and connect them with lines to form a diamond figure.

Marbury attacked on the left side, made a pick-and-roll with Stoudemire, took advantage of the situation in the penalty area, and James stepped forward to defend.

Marbury didn't hit hard, and passed to the left three-point baseline. Hardaway caught the ball, faced James' quick return to defense, and directly shot a three-point jumper.

With a bang, the basketball missed, hit the basket, and flew out.

Although Hardaway has comprehensive skills, they are not top-notch. When he was young, his body was at the top of the league, and his technology and body can complement each other very well.

It's just that his physical fitness is not as good as before, and his technique has naturally regressed a lot. He has just played, his touch is still cooling down, and his shooting is unstable.

D'Antoni's face remained unchanged, but he shook his head at this 'Penny' in his heart.

Boozer grabs the rebound and passes to James.

James took the ball to the frontcourt and did not rush to attack. Hardaway, the two successors of Jordan, faced him again.

James suddenly sped up and got rid of it. He was sure that Hardaway's lateral speed had dropped, and his speed would definitely not be able to keep up. He then used his body to display his crab step, smashed into the space, broke through to the basket aggressively, and made a three-step layup.

Although Hardaway is old, has no possession of the ball, and has no energy, but facing James' bullying breakthrough, he feels very uncomfortable. He suddenly exerted his strength and jumped from the side of James, wanting to teach the little emperor. Slap him a big hat.

With a snap, Hardaway pressed the basketball, but the situation he wanted to slap the basketball away did not appear.

James dribbled the ball and dunked into the basket.

At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded, and Hardaway was sentenced to a thug for a foul. James' two-point goal was valid, and an additional penalty was required.

90:92.

James landed, hammered his chest, and celebrated domineeringly.

At the free throw line, James made a steady free throw and pulled the score gap to 3 points.

After a quick offensive and defensive transition, Marbury took the ball to the frontcourt, and after Stoudemire picked and rolled, he decided to come by himself, broke through to the basket, and forced the ball into the basket.

92:93.

Came back, James played high, passed the ball to Ilgauskas, who is 218cm tall, and bullied Stoudemire, who was only 208cm tall. The basketball dunks in.

92 is better than 95!

Quickly serving the bottom line, the Suns quickly attacked, forming a 5-on-[-] frontcourt, and Marbury passed the ball to Stoudemire, who was running down, and dunked the basketball.

But, turning around, the Cavaliers played inside again, and Boozer received a pass from Ilgauskas under the basket and scored an easy dunk.

Next, the two sides came and went, first Marion cut to the basket and had to hit, then Lin Bai scored a three-pointer from the left corner, and then Marbury made a personal breakthrough and hit two points in the mid-range shot...

After all, Marbury is just an offensive point guard, and his offense is always the first choice. Assisting his teammates depends only on his mood.

Moreover, although Marbury has many assists, his vision is not enough. Many assists are fed to Stoudemire and Marion's cut baskets, but there are very few peripheral assists.

Why is it called running and bombing? As the name suggests, in addition to running, there is also bombing.

It's just that the scoring options are two points, so that's also called a boom?
That is called millet plus rifle!

With cannons, long-range attacks can be called boom!

There is no running and bombing of three-pointers, just a pure running offense. Facing a team with stable inside output, it can only be a tragedy.

As the time at the end of the game decreased, the scores of the two teams gradually increased. Although the Suns seemed to keep scoring, in the end, the score was getting bigger and bigger by the Cavaliers.

D'Antoni's face was indifferent, and he had already removed Marbury from his roster in his heart. Hardaway, who was not good at making three-pointers and had no running ability, was not in his roster plan.

Stoudemire, Marion, Joe Johnson, he has already made up three, and he still needs an organizational brain and a wing three-point player.

His eyes looked at Lin Bai who made another three-pointer. Is he one of those candidates?

Not surprisingly, the Suns, who had no three-pointers, ran and bombed, and finally fell under the stable output of the Cavaliers inside.

It's not that the players and coaches don't know how to count. A 50% hit rate on two-pointers, ten shots, can get 10 points.

With ten three-pointers and a 30% hit rate, you can score 9 points.

Therefore, shooting three-pointers is more efficient than two-pointers.

This kind of efficiency is called magic ball efficiency in later generations.

However, under Jordan's iron law of "the one who wins the mid-range shooter wins the world", shooting three-pointers has become a nonsense, and shooting two-pointers is king!
At the end of the game, the little emperor James performed comprehensively, hitting the first triple-double of his NBA career, leading the Cavaliers to five players in double figures, defeating the Suns 101-95 and winning the second consecutive away game.

阿玛雷-斯塔德迈尔17投7中，三分球没投，罚球14投11中，砍下25分8篮板。

斯蒂芬-马布里16投9中，三分球3中2，罚球8中7，得到27分8助攻5篮板。

肖恩-马里昂16投7中，三分球2投0中，罚球2中1，抢下15分11篮板。

The three core players of the Suns performed well. Among them, Joe Johnson also had 11 points. In the matchup of the starting list, he can be evenly divided with the Cavaliers. However, in addition to the good starting performance of the Cavaliers, Lin Bai also appeared. Otherwise, it's hard to say who wins and who loses?

詹姆斯上场42分钟，16投8中，三分球5中1，罚球9中5，砍下22分10助攻12篮板，表现全面。

里基-戴维斯上场40分钟，25投9中，三分球8中3，罚球4中1，得到24分6篮板3助攻，首节超神。

Lin Bai played 6 minutes, made 5 of 4 shots, 4 of 4 three-pointers, 1 of 1 free throws, scored 13 points and 1 assist in a single quarter, the key to efficient performance, showing his true qualities, including 4 of 4 three-pointers , is eye-catching.
