Chapter 174 The Role of Superstars

Chapter 174 The Role of Superstars

Brandon Bass scored, just the beginning.

The Pistons' unfavorable offense is the reason why the Pistons are really helpless.

Stuckey and Qin Yang have similar characteristics. They belong to tall and large combo guards. When they played against the Celtics in the playoffs, they were very sophisticated and had better statistics than Billups. Therefore, they got the attention of Thomas, the general manager of the Pistons.

But in fact Stucky is suitable to be the second or third leader, rather than forcefully supporting him to be the boss.

In the past few seasons, Stuckey has played worse and worse, and he has become a bit useless.

The one who was beaten lost confidence, which is the most terrifying thing for a player.

Facing Qin Yang, Stucky was fearful and his performance was appalling. On the contrary, Will Bynum played well, making shots one after another and hitting some balls.

But that's irrelevant.

Qin Yang shot three consecutive three-pointers from the outside, and the Pistons called a timeout. The Pistons are a traditional defensive team, and they had no choice but to encounter Qin Yang's unreasonable three-pointers.

After the timeout, as long as Qin Yang has a little shooting space outside the three-point line, the two will double-team unceremoniously.

The Pistons double-teamed, and Qin Yang casually passed the ball to Redick and Matt Barnes.

Redick made 1 of 0 three-pointers and 3 of 3 two-pointers. The Pistons were depressed, and Matt Barnes and Brandon Bass also took the opportunity to make easy shots.

Qin Yang finally showed some qualities of a superstar at this time.

At the critical moment, he can shoot and score by himself, and he can also attract the defense and assist his teammates to score. This is a method only available to superstars, but unlike other superstars, Qin Yang's method of attracting defense is even more incredible.

The league's superstars attract defenses and generally fall into two categories.

One is players like James Wade Ross, who rely on super physical fitness to break through. One person can't defend at all, and can only be restricted by zone defense and double-teaming.

This is the superstar with the most types.

The second is the practice of Carmelo Anthony, Kobe Bryant and Paul Pierce. The opposing players who rely on a kaleidoscope of offense are helpless, and in the end the opponent chooses to help defend and double-team at any time.

After the superstar attracts the defense, it becomes a lot easier for teammates to score.

That's what superstardom is really about.

Many people say that scoring at critical moments is the only basis for judging whether a superstar is a true core. This makes sense, but it is very biased.

If the tactics are right, the superstar with a bunch of role players can open the score in the first three quarters, so there is no need for the so-called critical moment in the next one.

What is more considered at the critical moment is the overall quality and big heart of the superstar.

Qin Yang is different from ordinary superstars. Qin Yang attracts defenses from outside the three-point line. As long as there is a little space, Qin Yang can shoot wildly. In this case, the opponent has to put the center of defense on Qin Yang.

As long as the offense is strengthened a little bit, Qin Yang will attract the defense and his teammates will get a chance.

This ability to attract defense is different from previous superstars.

Attract defenses from beyond the three-point line.There is still a lot of space in the game. Teammates can choose any way to attack, mid-range, corner three-pointers, breakthrough layups, and outside three-pointers.There are many ways for teammates to choose, and even after teammates receive the ball, they can easily choose to pass it to another open player.

But if James or Anthony attracts defense, the positions of others are often very fixed.

Because James is in a short-range position under the basket, and Anthony is also in a mid-range position. After occupying space in this position, the position is close to two meters around, and it is difficult for other teammates to get offensive opportunities.

This is the difference between Qin Yang and other superstars.

The most obvious change is that Qin Yang and Qin Song stood outside the three-point line and gave the ball to Redick. Redick suddenly accelerated to the basket, met Ben Wallace and passed it to Gortat, and Gortat made a mid-range shot.

During this process, Brandon Bass screened, Redick broke through the pass, and Gotatla took the ball after opening the space.

The three cooperated very well, and everyone performed like a star.

Qin Yang attracted the defense, playing more and less inside the three-point line, no matter what.

Basketball is a sport of sharing.

Relying on a superstar to carry the team forward is ridiculous. After Qin Yang attracts the defense in this way, his teammates have enough room to play, and they will not become weak chickens who can only catch the ball and take the blame if they miss.

This is also the reason why superstars are often complained about and discarded teammates.

After Qin Yang attracted the defense, he settled down for a while and handed the ball to his teammates. The teammates played very happily, especially after Vince Carter came on the court in the third quarter, Qin Yang became a weak three-point point guard who dribbled the ball and handed the ball to his teammates after half court. Vince Carter was proficient in breakthrough, passing, and defense.

The Magic played well in the third quarter except for Qin Yang.Qin Yang only hit two unreasonable three-pointers, which prevented the Pistons from relaxing their defense.

From the data point of view, Qin Yang's performance is average, and his teammates are all excellent, but only from the court can we find out how much Qin Yang has helped the Magic.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Qin Yang was off the court, and the point difference had reached 15+.

On the court, Qin Yang didn't feel tired, because he came and went several times, Qin Yang watched his teammates play from outside the three-point line, and the only thing that played a role was the defensive end, and the outside defense was very powerful.

Such a core, no one doesn't like it.

At the end of the game, in this expected strong dialogue, Qin Yang made 18 of 11 shots and 12 of 6 three-pointers. He scored 28 points, 8 assists, 3 rebounds and 2 steals, helping the team win the game.

Howard played poorly and was troubled by fouls. He played 26 minutes, scored 12 points and 7 rebounds, and left the game with 6 fouls.

But the Magic still won easily.

Brandon Bass, Redick and Matt Barnes performed unexpectedly well, but Ryan Anderson, who was originally very good, was not playing well.

When Qin Yang was off the court, Vince Carter performed well as a point forward and drove the entire team.

Of course, the most important thing is that facing a strong team like the Pistons in the playoffs, the Magic won such a strong victory without any suspense, which surprised many people.

TNT news:

"Facing the Pistons, the Magic performed unexpectedly strong, especially Qin Yang, who had a sluggish offensive performance in the first three games. This game turned out to be a strong explosion, making multiple hits from beyond the three-point line, attracting double-teams, and helping the Magic to play a smooth offense."

"This ability to attract double-teams from beyond the three-point line is the first time in the NBA."

"This season, the Magic are definitely the favorites for the championship. The most traditional team building model, one inside and one outside, has once again exerted its power."
