NBA: I haven't played a game but I'm full of talent

Ling Yang's goal once again helped the Suns avoid being widened by the opponent's general.

However, that didn't quite alleviate the problems the Sun had today.

The Clippers did a great job of preventing pick-and-rolls today, and the defensive rotation was very good.

On the field, Ling Yang vaguely felt that under the Clippers' defensive strategy, defense against breakthroughs was a huge weakness. As long as he got the ball and broke through, the success rate of getting into the inside lane was very high.

However, Ling Yang also clearly felt that such an offensive tactic did not gain the consensus of the entire team.

The Suns started out playing pick-and-roll tactics. Throughout the season, they have been accustomed to launching tactics from Nash's pick-and-roll or Diaw's high ball.

Although Ling Yang is the most lethal player in the team today, he is the player with the highest score so far.

However, the Suns are still accustomed to more pick-and-roll tactics. Only when Ling Yang sees that the situation is not open and actively asks for the ball to attack, will the ball be handed over to him to break through.

Therefore, Lingyang's breakthroughs and scoring again and again are mainly to maintain the team's point difference from being widened, and it cannot help the Suns completely reverse the situation.

Sitting on the sidelines, D'Antoni frowned slightly when Bell's shot was bounced out of the basket by the Clippers' interference again.

He did not expect the Clippers to be so good in defensive rotation today.

Do you want to give Ling Yang more offensive power?

Keenly aware of Ling Yang's outstanding efficiency in this game, D'Antoni was a little tangled.

If Ling Yang is given more offensive power now, the tactics arranged before the game will be completely messed up. There is still a little more time in the quarter. Can Ling Yang continue to cause damage in this entire quarter?

Especially if Ling Yang scores consecutive goals, he will definitely be taken care of by the opponent.

Thinking of this, D'Antoni shook his head imperceptibly.

Immediately after the ball was dead in the next round, he replaced Ling Yang as usual and replaced James Jones and House.

Seeing D'Antoni's substitution, Gentry, who was sitting on the sidelines, hesitated to speak, but still didn't speak.

As the chief assistant coach, he can offer various suggestions during the pre-match tactical analysis, but it is not suitable for him to speak again when the on-the-spot coach has already made a substitution decision.

With D'Antoni's substitutions, he hopes to further strengthen the firepower on the outside, put more pitchers on the field, and there will always be one who can drive.

After Jones came on the court, he did make a three-pointer very competitively, but that's all.

In the next round, Jones was beaten 2+1 by Maggette, which was considered a return.

Later, until 3 minutes into the fourth quarter, Jones faced the Clippers' active defense. He failed to make contributions outside the three-point line, but instead gave the Suns an extra defensive weakness on the court.

At 91:80, when the point difference widened to double digits, D'Antoni finally realized that his idea of ​​betting that the Suns could open from the outside seemed a bit wrong.

Ling Yang, who was the most capable attacker in this game, was sent back to the field, but facing the fast-moving Clippers, such adjustments were of no avail.

The sun is not open outside, and Lingyang's breakthrough alone is obviously not enough to complete the 11-point chase.

...Especially when the Clippers are also playing very smoothly on the offensive end today.

106:94, the game ended, the Suns lost to the Clippers by 12 points at home, and the Clippers pulled the big score to a 1:1 tie.

"The entire Suns team played poorly today. Their offense has not opened up at all. If there is a bright spot, it may be Ling!"

On the sidelines, Barkley looked at the players of the two teams walking towards the locker room, and spoke first.

"Today Ling's offense with the ball was efficient, but the Suns didn't give him more opportunities."

"No no no!" Kenny Smith immediately shook his head and said:

"Ling really played very efficiently today, he scored a game-high 26 points, but are you sure that giving him more offensive power with the ball can help the Suns out of the predicament?

The real problem with the Suns is that their conventional tactics were not played out. They only scored 94 points in the game, which is obviously not the Suns' offensive level.

Of course, the Clippers played well in this game, which is also a very important reason. "

……

When walking to the locker room, both Ling Yang and D'Antoni were pondering the same question.

That is, if Ling Yang is given more power to attack with the ball, will the result of today's game be rewritten.

It's just that neither of them could think of an answer, because there was no such thing as a "if" in the game.

With 26 points and 10 rebounds, Ling Yang is undoubtedly the one who played the best in the team. This is also one of the few times that Ling Yang got the team's high score, but the game was lost.

Before, because Ling Yang's independent attack ability was not strong, and his assist rate was not high, so when the team played well, his statistics would be better.

However, in today's game, Ling Yang had an outstanding performance when the team was not going well.

On the other hand, Ling Yang's outstanding performance did not fully drive the team, which may be his current problem.

However, even so, when D'Antoni returned to the locker room to analyze the game, he still praised Ling Yang heavily.

However, D'Antoni also pointed out that the more critical thing for the team is to find the success rate of conventional tactics.

For this reason, in the team training on the second day, the team focused on training various offensive tactics initiated by the pick-and-roll.

After finishing the training, Ling Yang continued his own training as usual.

Now Lingyang's training programs have become more and more abundant. In addition to various training around the basket, shooting and ball-handling breakthroughs have also been added.

Ling Yang is now practicing from near to far, first practicing attacking the basket, then practicing holding the ball for layups, and finally practicing close-range shots and free throws.

Ling Yang finished a set of training and was about to take a short break. At this time, Gentry, who had been standing aside for a long time, came over.

"coach!"

Seeing Gentry, Ling Yang immediately greeted him.

Since the summer league, the relationship between Ling Yang and Gentry has been very good. When there are some confusions during games or training, Ling Yang also asks Gentry a lot for advice.

So for Gentry, Ling Yang respects him very much, even better than D'Antoni.

... "Ling, how does it feel to attack with the ball?" Gentry sat beside Ling Yang and asked with a smile.

"Very good!" Ling Yang replied with a smile.

"The offense has more options, can get more offensive opportunities, and has stronger offensive confidence.

In the past, when I entered the half court and got the ball, to be honest, if it was not close to the three-second zone, my first thought was to give the ball to my teammates as soon as possible.

But now, with the ball in my hands, I can play more comfortably. "

Gentry nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "This is natural, I mentioned to you at the beginning of the season that you need to improve your dribbling ability, which can make your talent more perfect.

At the same time, it also allows you to find more offensive opportunities on the field. "

Speaking of this, Gentry suddenly changed the subject.

"However, Ling, how do you think your ball handling is combined with the team's tactics?"

Hearing Gentry's question, Ling Yang thought for a while, then shook his head and said:

"It's not very good. Yesterday's game was like this. I was able to break through the opponent's defense, but it couldn't completely change the situation on the court."

"Also, whenever I make a breakthrough, my teammates don't know how to cooperate with me. How can I describe my breakthrough?"

After speaking, Ling Yang paused, and then continued: "It seems to be a little out of the team's tactics."

"It seems that you have discovered this problem." Gentry quickly added the words.

"In fact, the same problem existed in the first game, but the team played smoothly in that game, so it was not a problem, but in the second game, when the team encountered a headwind, the problem appeared."

With that said, Gentry patted Ling Yang and said, "Ling, do you want to hear my thoughts?"

"Of course!" Ling Yang looked over immediately.

Gentry continued to say: "No matter how strong a player is, if he can't be integrated into the team's tactics, he can't help the team more.

In the team, the passing and cutting around Steve is the core of the team's offensive tactics. In fact, you have been the beneficiary of this tactic throughout the season. That's why you didn't attack with the ball Ability, but an important reason for being able to perform well on the scoring end. "

"Did you find yourself running less in the two games? Of course, the key factor in the second game was that the Clippers did a good job of defending the pass and cut.

But what about yourself?Is your first thought to hold the ball first, and then use your own breakthrough to score? "

Hearing Gentry's rhetorical question, Ling Yang calmed down and thought about it for a while, and suddenly recalled it, as if it made sense.

Did Ling Yang play well in these two games?

In a way, it's still very good, even standing up when the team needs it.

However, when Ling Yang thought carefully about what Gentry said, it really made sense.

He didn't have the ability to attack with the ball before, so he only wanted to cut in to find opportunities, and to rush to grab rebounds to find opportunities.

But in these two games, his offense seemed to rely more on scoring through breakthroughs.

...Maybe it's because I have made a breakthrough in my ability to hold the ball and mastered new skills, so I can't help but want to try more?

"Ling, although your offensive breakthrough ability with the ball has improved, and Mike is willing to give you more opportunities, the team will not change tactics in a big way because of this!"

Gentry said to Ling Yang very seriously, "This is the second round of the playoffs, not the second week of the regular season."

"So my suggestion is that the first thing you have to do well is to finish what you did before.

You must first allow yourself to continue to be an indispensable part of the team's entire offensive tactics, continue to pass and cut well, and then occasionally use your own breakthroughs to tear apart the opponent's defense at the right opportunity. "

After hearing this, Ling Yang immediately understood what Gentry meant, that is to say, don't treat your breakthrough with the ball as a conventional weapon, but as a hidden weapon.

On the field, according to the tasks assigned by the previous tactics, you should move and move, and don't hold the ball too much, and then when you have a chance, break through with the ball and launch a hidden weapon.

Seems to make sense!

At least for the Suns at this stage, this is indeed a more suitable style of play.

In particular, although I have made progress in breakthroughs with the ball, I have not reached the top level after all, and I have shortcomings in handling the ball, so I am easy to be targeted.

As for the future... Forget it, let's think about the later things, let's finish this season first.

After figuring this out, Ling Yang immediately said to Gentry: "Okay, I understand, coach!"

"OK, Ling, you are the most amazing young man I have seen in recent years, I really look forward to your growth in the future."

Gentry patted Ling Yang with a smile, and then said: "Are you still training? I will practice with you!"

"Of course!"

Ling Yang stood up quickly and patted the ball: "Coach, let's practice shooting. I want to practice more shots that are interfered with by others and jump shots when holding the ball."

"No problem, let's get started!"

In the stadium, the sound of training sounded again.

Ling Yang is not just training, after the end, he deliberately found the previous two games to seriously review.

With Gentry's suggestion, Ling Yang has more insights than the team's unified organization before the replay.

Every round, he was thinking about the same question, in the existing team tactics, how to better combine running without the ball and breakthrough with the ball.

One day passed in a blink of an eye, because the two cities are not far away, the Suns did not go to Los Angeles in advance, but came to Los Angeles from Phoenix in the early morning of the next game day.

The second game between the two teams will be played at the Staples Arena in Los Angeles.

And people in this city and this team are familiar with the Suns, because in the last round, they swept the Lakers here to advance.

After the first two games, the two sides already know each other well.

In the past two days, the two teams have been making tactical improvements and adjustments. As for the results, they can only wait for the game to test.

In the third game, the Suns continued to use the lineup of the previous two games. Insider Stoudemire partnered with Marion, small forward Ling Yang, two guards Bell and Nash.

For the Clippers, they won the last game, so naturally there is no reason to adjust the lineup, so their lineup is still inside Radmanovich partner Brand, small forward Corey Maggette, two guards Mobley partnered with Cassell.

"Huaxia TV, I'm Yu Jia. This game will continue to be explained by me and Xu Jicheng, the director of Xu Jicheng. The game has started. The Suns are the first to get the ball. Let's see how to play..."

In the Suns playoffs, Huaxia TV is not losing a game, and it is also popular in China.

Huaxia basketball fans had already stood in front of the screen. At this time, hearing Yu Jia's voice, they also focused their eyes on the screen.

"Nash dribbled the ball to half court, and the ball was handed over to Ling Yang! In the first offensive round, the Suns did not play Nash and Stoudemire's pick-and-roll tactics, but directly handed the ball to Ling Yang!"
