I'm a big shot in basketball

On the 28th, the Warriors faced the Grizzlies.

After the pre-match ceremony, Su Yang gathered the whole team to surround him, reminding the Grizzlies that they are soft, but they should not be taken lightly.

Jamieson and others patted their chests to ensure that there would be no problem.

Turning to the start of the game, the whole team was full of defense at the beginning of the game. Various double-teams and shrinkage blocked the paint area to interfere with the pass, limiting the Grizzlies' strategy of bullying Jamison through Gasol, but Gasol's passing skills Very good, he defended to the limit several times, and let him pass the ball, but Jason Williams, who has never been very good at catching and shooting three-pointers, actually made 3 of 2.

Considering that Jason Williams' three-point shooting rate is only 29.5% throughout the season, it seems that double-teaming Gasol is a wrong strategy. The on-site commentator Tim believes that double-teaming should be abandoned, and he would rather let Gasol bully him through his height advantage. jamison.

Su Yang didn't understand Rushan.

Fortunately, the Warriors' offensive end was full. Jamison used off-ball running to bully Gasol, Richardson used his physical advantage to bully Battier, and center Jackson also used his weight advantage to bully Lorenzen. After the first quarter, they played 32 to 29. lead.

Back in the second quarter, Commander Su Yang continued to double-team Gasol.

Gasol continued to choose to pass the ball to the open Jason Williams, but this time he was 5 for 0 three-pointers.

The Warriors took the opportunity to play a 10-0 attack wave, and the Grizzlies were forced to suspend adjustments. After returning, they changed to Shane Battier to cooperate with Gasol to break the double-team, probably thinking that Battier's fixed-point three-pointers were better, after all, 37% hits rate, averaging 1.3 hits per game.

However, the Grizzlies have a good idea, but the execution is biased.

In order for Battier to catch the ball on the strong side where Gasol holds the ball, the Grizzlies need to run one more cross screen. Su Yang seized the opportunity to instruct Richardson and Sura to point to the defense. Both of them are 196 tall and fast. Not bad, it greatly delayed Battier's position.

Gasol also insisted on giving the ball, but in the face of the Warriors' rotation, Battier's possession of the ball was biased, and most of the catches chose to split the ball twice, while Jason Williams was the one who caught the ball in a small open space, with a 29.5% shooting rate Unable to eat dumplings, the efficiency of understanding scores plummeted.

The Warriors took the opportunity to grab rebounds and counterattack with various fast breaks. After halftime, the Warriors led by 18 points. The commentator Tim directly called Su Yang amazing.

Back from the halftime break, the Grizzlies had nothing to do.

Jason Williams tried a few high-post pick-and-rolls, but he had to retreat when he was double-teamed, and his offensive efficiency plummeted.

The Grizzlies have no choice but to pass the basketball between Gasol and Jason. After all, the offensive efficiency is the second lowest in the league, scoring per 100 rounds, only 0.2 more than the last Bulls Points, it is crouching dragon and phoenix chick.

After three quarters, the Warriors led by 27 points.

The Grizzlies usually concede early in the fourth quarter, but Su Yang has a small mind. Remember to listen to the taunts during the interview, and he is not happy. It may be that the Grizzlies leaked the secret to ESPN's own strategy and arranged Arenas as a substitute. attack.

Anyway, we have to practice Arenas' ball handling.

At the end of the game, the Warriors beat the Grizzlies 119 to 79 by 40 points, while Arenas scored 20 points in the final quarter.

After the game, he attended the press conference and talked about why the Grizzlies invested in advance and were merciful. Su Yang shrugged his shoulders: "I didn't expect Arenas to be so crazy. When I found out that the lead was too much, he was very hot and I couldn't change it forcibly." Next, you should have heard the cheers of the fans at that time, after all, it was a basketball game performed for the fans, I am really embarrassed to spoil the fun..."

After the game, the whole team rested for four days.

Taking advantage of sufficient time, Su Yang flew to New York overnight and landed at 06:30 in the morning. He rushed directly to Thibodeau's residence without any extra rest, and together with Clifford, who had been notified in advance, explained why the recruitment of the two was suspended. .

Knowing that the idiot boss Chris was the cause, the two of Thibodeau hesitated a little. Su Yang promised to guarantee that the two of them only need to concentrate on researching and guiding defense after joining the job. He will fight with Chris, and the two can leave at any time without worry. .

The two agreed for a long time. Thibodeau lamented that Su Yang's experience was a miracle. He went from layman to head coach in half a year, and he did a very good job. If Su Yang was not too young, he would definitely regard Su Yang as an idol, which is unimaginable. is how to do it.

Su Yang flew back to San Francisco on the latest flight and rested honestly until the 30th to lead the team to practice together.

In terms of offense, continue to review and strengthen the horn formation, and practice an extra elbow series. Using Sura as a point guard with a relatively strong body, he can serve as a cross screen for Hughes who is squatting at the bottom corner, not just a wide screen.

However, Hughes' three-point shooting rate is average, which makes it difficult to use the elbow series of tactics. We can only focus on Richardson, but we also try Hughes to stand in the elbow area and let Jamison go to the bottom corner. Hughes can also play small The characteristics of the striker.

But generally speaking, the efficiency is average, and the focus is on multiple choices. The starting hand of the bull horn is very similar to the elbow, which can be confusing.

No. 31 continued to train and paid close attention to defense.

The switch and pincers practiced well before, but this time there is an extra rotation to cover the position. Fortunately, the previous two coaches, Dave Cowens and Winters, also practiced faster because they emphasized defense, while Su Yangxiang Compared with only two coaches, there is one more move to switch defenses in advance, so that the rotation can deal with more situations, but it is mainly aimed at ordinary stars, and it is no different when encountering Kobe.

After two rounds of training, Su Yang once again emphasized the importance of actively grabbing rebounds, because in the previous two games against the Lakers and Grizzlies, he did not lose a lot of rebounds because of the overall height deviation of Jamison as a power forward, which was an important reason for his victory.

Anyway, grabbing rebounds is mainly to block and predict in advance, but the height and speed can only go to the back row, just like Tucker and Green, and Hayes.Fortson and Dampier in the Warriors team also have experience in rebounding, and Su Yang arranged for them to share and demonstrate.

The atmosphere of the whole team has become very good.

After training in the afternoon, Beyoncé flew over from Los Angeles to hold a birthday party for Su Yang. The players and management attended the party, and the owner Chris also came to join in the fun. He expressed that he was very happy to see the changes in the team and would do his best Support Su Yang.

Su Yang almost believed it.

On the first day of the new year, the whole team started four consecutive away.

Flew to Cleveland for the first stop, took a night off to challenge the Cavaliers.Considering the deviation of the Cavaliers' strength and the fact that they had to play against the Hornets back-to-back, Su Yang strictly controlled the playing time of the main players, and more Mucci and Arenas led the team. In the end, they narrowly won 98 to 92.

The whole team flew to Charlotte overnight according to the schedule, and after a morning of rest, they challenged the Hornets back to back.

Considering that the Hornets are the biggest potential trading partner for the Rest, Su Yang filled Hughes's role, played 10 minutes and 56 seconds in the first quarter, and debuted at the start of the second quarter. He cooperated with Arenas to attack the Hornets' substitute and played 11. than 0 attack wave.

No way, the Hornets' backcourt is too weak, Bruce Drew, who averages 3 points per game, and Augmon, who averages 4 points per game.

With that wave of 11 to 0, the Warriors firmly grasped the rhythm.

But the Hornets defense is quite strong, mainly because its assistant coach Paul Silas is good at discovering and using the defensive strengths of each player. The classic case allowed Livingston, who suffered heavy injuries, to practice a good defense, so that he was robbed later. sign a contract.

As the game progressed, the Warriors became more and more uncomfortable being defended.

At the end of the game, Su Yang was overtaken by 2 points. Su Yang called three timeouts in a row and arranged three tactics for Jamison in a row. The first BOX formation was connected to the STS screen to catch and shoot the ball. The second slicecut rushed to the short corner to single out. Three under-screen shots.

PJ Brown, the best defensive player responsible for defending Jamison, failed to defend once, while Baron Davis on the Hornets continued to find pick-and-rolls and encountered double-teams without scoring a point.In the end, the Warriors defeated the Hornets 114 to 110, winning four consecutive victories.

Attending the press conference after the game, talking about the four consecutive victories after taking office, Su Yang sincerely thanked former coach Dave Cowens for the foundation laid for the team, especially the prototype of the horn series tactics, which allowed him to promote the speed of subsequent related tactics soon.

After a day off, the whole team flew to Orlando to challenge the Magic.

As a playoff-level team, the main feature of the Magic is that there are more players who can shoot three-pointers. There is a swingman McGrady, another swingman who can also assist Mike Miller, and a space-based power forward Pat Gary. Dee, Hudson and Armsterling, the team averaged 20.2 three-pointers per game and hit 7.6 times, ranking second in the league in efficiency and fourth in the league in points per game.

Fortunately, continuous defense changes are particularly restrained from three-pointers. The Warriors have three 196 defenses on the outside, and their height is only at a disadvantage against McGrady.

Both Mike Miller and Armstrong misfired, requiring McGrady to take a lot of shots to digest the ball, but McGrady pulled the ball.

It's not how good the Warriors' defense limit is, but that McGrady himself is out of shape, and he pulled out his hands and hit the front basket continuously.

Probably because of back-to-back battles and not averaging 40 minutes per game this season, Rivers wasted too much.

After halftime, the Warriors led by 13 points.

Back in the second half, Su Yang continued to focus on the inside and bullied Hollis Grant and Ewing, two veteran players who are about to retire. He also felt distressed that the Magic had no one to use inside. Jamison scored easily in various ways, and even Jackson was able to show off his throw. .

But the rebound protection is not very good. Because of the relatively large height disadvantage, he lost a lot of defensive rebounds, and has always maintained suspense.

Fortunately, there was no danger in the end. The Warriors defeated the Magic 107 to 98 and won a wave of five consecutive victories. The team's momentum was greatly boosted.

After a night of rest, the Warriors challenged the Heat back to back.

Orlando is quite close to Miami. The Warriors' sleep has not been affected too much, and their physical strength is relatively sufficient. Fortunately, they encountered a truce from Heat center Mourning. However, it was because of Riley's tough defensive style that they narrowly won by 2 points in the end.

From eight consecutive losses to six consecutive victories, the effect of the Warriors' change of head coach is visible to the naked eye, and the league is hotly discussing Su Yang's credit.Many Warriors fans posted on RealGm and other basketball forums, joking that the plan has changed and no longer compete for the top pick, but the championship.

Su Yang briefly chatted with Spoel outside the arena, and bumped into Riley by accident.I never thought of Riley complaining: "Young man, I advise you to change places. Chris Cohan is a short-sighted sensitive megalomaniac, and it is easy to waste your time."

Su Yang responded with a smile, saying in his heart that I understand.

Instead, he led the team and flew back to San Francisco. There was only one bet short of winning seven out of ten games. The opponent was the Bucks in the Eastern Conference Finals.
