Chapter 171 [What you don't want, you will do to others]

Chapter 171 [What you don't want, you will do to others]

The Raptors starters. Everyone knows what they should do on the court.

On the surface, the stars are strong, but the experience of the old players is more critical. If the role players do not mess around, the attack will be smooth.Willis is the consummate team player, and Christie, 29, is equally solid.

The Knicks played the same way as the Raptors and fell behind because the role players weren't good enough.Ward and Bowen played soy sauce on the offensive end and could not receive the pass.

Yang Rui's defense was aimed at the Knicks' trident, allowing them to shoot when someone interfered in front of them.

Houston singled out Shaquille O'Neal with the ball, which is not a strong point, and shot halfway out of position.Houston made more three-pointers than Yang Rui in his previous life, and the Raptors swooped outside, forcing him to make two-pointers.

Van Gundy frowned on the sidelines and entered the "headache but don't know how to adjust" mode. When he saw the defensive tactics he was good at, he felt as uncomfortable as eating flies.

The two assistant coaches who went out from the Knicks understood the weaknesses of the Knicks' offense and defense, but Van Gundy still knew little about the Raptors.

In the second half, the Knicks double-teamed Carter, finally curbing the opponent's scoring momentum. Christie and Billups each made two long shots that missed the basket.

What Yang Rui can't control is the player's feel.The reality is not a game, the player's ability values ​​are not static, sometimes accurate, sometimes undercover.

In the first quarter, the two sides have been fighting on the ground, scoring not many points. 23 to 21, the Raptors lead by two points.

In the second quarter, Yang Rui used the frontcourt pressing tactics and played a quick counterattack. Di Brown and Alvin Williams formed a double back, which was faster.The positional battle opened, McGrady singled out in the middle, and Detrev and Miller were on the inside.

In this round of the series, Kevin Cato and John Thomas have few opportunities to perform, and the Knicks do not have a fat insider.

The Knicks still sent four blue collars, and Sprewell was responsible for scoring points.Stephen - Jackson in the Knicks can only be a blue-collar, no ball rights.

Childs has played a lot this season and has won the trust of Van Gundy. His stats are dismal and his role is defensive.He's constantly putting pressure on the ball handler, disrupting passing vision, aggressively chipping the ball, quickly rotating the fill-up defender, and even rolling on the ground for every floor ball.

Now, Di Brown also treats Childs the same way. His organization and ability to dribble the ball are average, and it is very uncomfortable to be dealt with.

There is a saying in China: "Do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself."

On the basketball court, it's the opposite.Do what you don't want to do to others!Doubling it if you can, and you're not far from winning.

Yang Rui's basketball philosophy is to let players practice more defensive methods they don't want to encounter, and use them on opponents to make them more uncomfortable.

Childs was double-teamed by Detrev and Di Brown in the backcourt, hurriedly passed the ball to Oakley, McGrady emptied Jackson, stretched his long arm and broke the basketball, stepped on the three-point line with his foot, took three steps, and dunked the basketball with one hand. Enter.

Soon, Jackson also made a mistake. He received a pass from Childs in the backcourt and dribbled the ball forward. The dribbling range was too high and was directly cut by McGrady. Alvin got rid of the "madman" who was going down quickly, and the ball was another one. Dunk.

The mistakes are not the worst. Van Gundy found that even if he was brought to the frontcourt to form a three-on-two, the Knicks could not easily score. Wallace was left empty and entered the basket to catch the ball. Regardless of the wrong position, the opponent grabbed it. .

Wallace made 4 of 1 free throws, a gratifying hit rate.

Van Gundy regarded Ben Wallace as a treasure. Yang Rui only felt that he was an excellent blue-collar worker and would never become the core. He was selected as an All-Star with excellent defense like in his previous life, which was his limit.

In the Knicks last season, Yang Rui suggested that Big Ben should practice free throws in the urinal, and the hit rate was not bad.As a result, Big Ben has returned to normal free throw action this season.

After all, Big Ben couldn't pass his psychological level. He would rather not be able to make free throws than be a laughing stock in the posture of holding a urinal throughout his career.This is good news for the Raptors, because his shooting percentage is only 40%. No matter how cool his movements and expressions are, it is the Knicks who are unlucky.

If he didn't change his free throw position until he retired, Wallace was also a pit on the offensive end.

Relying on his excellent body, McGrady and Di Brown restricted the "madman" Sprewell and prevented him from making comfortable shots. Childs was released many times and only scored one of three shots.

Ewing returned to the court and the Knicks' offense improved. He took the ball after covering and could play the guard in a dislocated position. Detrev also struggled to defend.

When the Raptors fielded the strongest offensive lineup, there were obvious loopholes in the defense line, and it was impossible to take into account both inside and outside.Can let Willis and O'Neal appear together, and the offense is not so sharp.

Detrev played No. 4 to ensure maximum space. Relying on the advantage obtained by the substitute, the Raptors entered the second half with a 48-39 lead.

The two sides continued to grind their positions, and the difference could not be opened.Ewing scored 26 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 assists in three quarters. The Raptors still did not double-team him, and worked hard on Sprewell and Houston.

Ewing's offensive efficiency is not high. Last season, the Knicks won the championship by relying on defense and three-pointers. Reducing the outside shooting rate is the goal of the Knicks.

"Madman" made 9 of 2 shots in three quarters, plus only 6 points from free throws. He played badly.Christie and Maddie took turns to watch him closely.

In Yang Rui's previous life, after Ewing left, some people said that Sprewell was the core of the Knicks. There is a certain truth. Houston mainly played without the ball. The core of the team should be the one who has the most balls and can disrupt the opponent's defensive system.However, under the care of the "madman", he can't get crazy at all, let alone dominate the game.

"Don't keep your strength, you only need to last four or five minutes, treat the game as the final battle, fight against them, and resolutely play fast breaks. If they get to the basket, foul severely and send free throws, especially Ben Wallace, he can't make it!"

In the final quarter, Yang Rui started with Di Brown, Christie, McGrady, Bowen White, and John Thomas.Two energetic blue-collar substitutes came off the bench, again using full-court pressing.

Relying on the physical advantage, the Raptors played proactively off the bench, and immediately fouled when they were out of space, preventing the opponent from shooting easily.

It was difficult for the Knicks guards to lead the half court. The offense mainly relied on Sprewell's slaps, and the hit rate was not high under Christie's entanglement.Bruce Bowen also made a passing error and was successfully stolen by Bai Bowen. Christie counterattacked and shot a three-pointer.

Under Yang Rui, Christie's period is also different from that of the King. He will pull three points on the counterattack and make a firm shot.Christie's 35.6 percent three-point percentage is not high, but his efficiency is better than other offenses, because his overall shooting percentage is only 40 percent.

In the penalty area defense, Thomas is 206cm tall and weighs 120kg. He can resist the opponent's inside line and protect the rebound.

Yang Rui made a big move, but Van Gundy was still steadfast and resolutely used Childs, who defended the strong and attacked the weak, as a substitute. Even the substitution time was the same as the regular season, and there were traces to follow.

The Knicks' lineup depth advantage cannot be played out, and the coaching gap is real.
