Chapter 622: Vicious Attack

Frank even proposed the tactics of playing one big and four small, one inside and four outside.

This tactic was also proposed by D'Antoni when he was in the Suns. It needs a player who can attract defense at the basket, eat cakes, defend, rebound, play second offense, and pass the ball. A center needs four perimeter players with excellent mid-to-long range shots and passability.

This tactic is very effective against zone defenses. It can maximize the opponent's defense and create singles opportunities for the inside.

Now the most demanding center is available, and it is perfect, but the requirements of the four perimeters are not enough.

Without him, Frank values ​​defense, unlike D'Antoni.

D'Antoni only requires long-range shooting ability, but he is different, so it is very difficult to build and requires four 3D players.

The current lineup is even worse.

Marion and Battier are both good, but Kurt Thomas' perimeter defense, his mobility is not good, and Wesley is also old. With the increase of fat on his body, his defensive efficiency has declined seriously. These two positions, not No offense, no defense.

In addition, he feels that Kurt Thomas is not very effective on the inside defensive end, because Thomas can't pull to the wing to defend, so he can only defend in a low position, which squeezes the space for the Hammers.

And with the hammer's defense, he doesn't need help at all. He can hold up the sky in the paint area of ​​the sun by himself.

Of course, there are still a few young guys on the team, and the lineup needs constant adjustments.

Li Ba stood under the basket, and Dampier immediately stood behind him.

Everyone else, including Kurt Thomas, pulled out, three were on the three-point line, and Thomas was one step inside the three-point line.

The Mavericks' penalty area was all evacuated, and Wesley gave the ball.

Li Ba grabbed the ball outward with his right hand, grabbed the ball with one hand, and then slammed back fiercely.

With a bang, Dampier stepped back in response, and the space where he turned and stood up appeared.

In the next moment, Li Ba turned sideways and dunked with one arm. With a bang, the Mavericks' basket was exploded again.

2:4, the Suns took the lead at home, Dampier under the basket did not take off in time, Li Ba added a free throw.

"Beautiful!" Yu Jia said excitedly.

Li Ba added a penalty and hit a goal, 2:5, the Suns led by 3 points, and the Mavericks attacked.

"Jason?"

On the sidelines, General Johnson shouted to Terry and then made a tactical gesture.

Terry nodded, this is to let him play the fourth position tactics.

Kurt Thomas's perimeter defense ability is not good, so let's hit Nowitzki.

The right wing is low, Nowitzki suddenly pulled out, Kurt Thomas couldn't guard against it, and the former caught the open space.

At the top of the arc, Terry suddenly moved to the right and passed the ball into the right wing.

Nowitzki took the ball and shot it, almost open, and hit another ball.

4:5, the Mavericks trailed by 1 point.

"Why is this guy's shooting posture so weird?" Li Ba noticed Nowitzki's raised leg.

Kurt Thomas's face was a little dark, he was almost pushed, and his children and grandchildren were cut off? No, it is to cut off children and grandchildren.

"Ugly posture! I have to say, with one leg up, it's like a dog peeing." Barkley complained.

"Haha..." Kenny Smith burst out laughing.

The Suns attack.

The four opened up again, evacuating the Mavericks' penalty area, and Li Ba went to the basket again, singles Dampier.

"Take him!"

On the sidelines, General Johnson shouted loudly.

Nowitzki immediately rushed to Li Ba.

"The Mavericks double-teamed the Hammers early, and the open Thomas is asking for the ball? Wesley passed!"

On the right wing, Kurt Thomas received the ball open.

At this time, Mavericks shooting guard Marquis Daniels stepped down from the right-wing three-point line to defend.

"boom!"

Kurt Thomas took off quickly, but unfortunately missed, the ball hit the basket.

"mine!"

Li Ba took the lead to move the card position and grabbed the rebound on the heads of Dampier and Nowitzki.

As soon as he landed, Dampier and Nowitzki immediately came up to double-team.

But at this time Li Ba got up again and threw the ball with one hand to Battier who was outside the three-point line on the right wing.

Marquese Daniels quickly returned to guard Battier, who immediately passed the ball over the former's head to Thomas inside, Thomas opened the shot, and the ball was there.

4:7, the Suns lead by 3 points.

"The Suns' offensive tactics of one inside and four outside are good!" Yu Jia laughed.

"There is no condition for the sudden point tactic, and this kind of combination of internal and external tactics is also possible. And the hammer can also get a lot of singles opportunities." Zhang Reasonable said with a smile.

"This kind of tactic depends on the feel of the outside line. If you keep missing shots, the Hammer will definitely encounter frequent double-teams." Yu Jia said.

Mavericks attack.

Still play Nowitzki this point.

But this time, Li Ba took the initiative to switch defenses with Thomas.

"Dirk, have you changed your shooting posture?" Li Ba asked.

"Something has changed, but it hasn't matured yet," Nowitzki said.

"I would say that your new posture is not much better than Marion's shooting posture." Li Ba laughed.

"Just work." Nowitzki laughed.

At this time, Terry advanced to the top of the arc, and Nowitzki suddenly withdrew.

Li Ba, who had improved in speed, was faster than Nowitzki, but he didn't follow very closely. He took two steps and gave Terry and Nowitzki a space to pass and receive the ball.

He then placed his second lock on Josh Howard on the weak side.

This way, once Howard cuts to the basket, he can know immediately.

At the moment Terry's ball was released, Li Ba reacted with a rush.

"My reflexes are really faster"

The faster reaction made his defense faster.

As a result, when Nowitzki was about to catch the ball sideways, Li Ba took a step forward, stretched out his left arm, and instantly broke the ball.

"A steal from the Hammers!"

"The sun is going down! Oh, Marion and Battier are flying together, the hammer is passed to Battier in front, and he is following up at full speed!"

The sun commentator was roaring.

Li Ba ran across the center line and immediately cut into the center.

Both Dampier and Kurt Thomas were hanging behind, and Nowitzki was also thrown off by Li Ba. The Suns formed a four-on-three situation, and Li Ba was unguarded.

Josh Howard gritted his teeth and rushed over from the right wing.

But this time Li Ba was a long-distance sprint, and the impact force was stronger than the one at the beginning. He didn't dare to block Li Ba head-on, but only pulled him sideways.

Just this one, his center of gravity was deflected by the huge impact, not only failed to stop Li Ba, but almost fell himself.

At this time, Battier passed the ball, and Li Ba flew to dunk, and with a bang, he blew up the Mavericks' basket again.

4:9, the Suns lead.

"Heavy kick! Super heavy kick! The ferocity of the hammer strikes again! He really wants to fuck the calf! Fuck the calf to death!"

The roar of the Suns commentator once again resounded throughout the American West Stadium, setting off a huge cheer and shout.

"Beautiful defensive counterattack! As an insider, the Hammer's speed advantage is fully demonstrated in this counterattack, allowing the Suns to form a situation where they play more and play less."

Kenny Smith laughed.

"But as a point guard, Wesley's speed has not kept up. The Suns' weakness at the first position is certain. It's just that no one inside the Mavericks can keep up with the Hammer. The Hammer has too much advantage in this fast break. Big. In the finals against the Pistons, both Wallaces failed to block his attack basket in the fast break, and the Mavericks are even more impossible." Barkley said.

"The Suns also have Barbosa on the bench. He has good speed. I think Frank can try to use him as an engine."

Kenny Smith said.
