If Mike Brown told Li Liang in the past, "We must execute xx defense", Li Liang can generally figure out what's going on.

For example, 2-3 joint defense, half-time man-to-man, 2-2-1 joint defense, unlimited switchover, etc.

More advanced, even if the commentators are not particularly clear about it, but senior fans also understand it, such as 1-4 joint defense. (In fact, anyone who has seen Slam Dunk knows it.)

Better to be more advanced, only professionals can understand, including various changes and routines derived from human-to-man defense, as well as defensive strategies that combine human-to-man defense, such as atch-up                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

As a person who has a deep understanding of various tactics and is qualified to be a head coach and has learned tactics with various historical tactic masters in the system, this is the first time that Li Liang has heard of this "swar" and "defense."

"Why haven't I heard of this defensive tactic?" Li Liang asked, touching his chin.

"This is a set of defensive tactical concepts designed by coach Wayne Walters of Stevens Institute of Technology. I read it recently when I was reading notes. I think his defensive concepts are very consistent with our team's staffing." Brown rubbed his eyes as he spoke. In order to find the most ideal defensive strategy, he really spent a lot of time.

Many fans will think that NBA has the most advanced basketball tactics and basketball concepts in the world.

In fact, it is not. As a business league, NBA must be the best players, but its philosophy is not necessarily the most advanced.

On the contrary, NBA's basketball philosophy and tactics may be more conservative and backward.

For example, the tactics of a star playing one-on-one singles have always been the most important part of the NBA arena.

You said that this tactic is experimental and advanced, it is just easy to use.

Because NBA teams need record, practicality is the first priority.

Therefore, experimental tactical play is often first developed from college, then proven to be effective, and then slowly adopted by professional leagues such as NBA.

With more than 100 years of basketball, various tactics can be said to be emerging one after another.

Although it is true that changes will never be separated, but based on the rules and the situation of the players, each type does have its own uniqueness.

Then, Mike Brown introduced Li Liang about the "swarm defense" system he is interested in.

Swarm defense was the invention of the Stevens Institute of Technology basketball coach.

This Stevens Institute of Technology is not an NCAA Alliance school, it is a two-year community college.

Many students in the United States want to enter NCAA to play, get scholarships, and prepare for their future entry into professional leagues.

However, some students' grades do not meet the standards, so they can only go to the next-level community school. After two years of study, they have the opportunity to advance and enter the schools that joined the NCAA Alliance.

These community universities formed an alliance called njcaa, and Stevens Institute of Technology is one of the members of njcaa.

Coach Wayne Walters is the head coach of the Stevens Institute of Technology basketball team. He used to be a basketball coach in a middle school and had 30 years of basketball coaching experience.

Don’t underestimate these unknown middle schools and college basketball coaches, they are often the most innovative.

Some wonderful tactics are often developed by some weak team coaches.

Because the quality of the players themselves is not good, tactics and discipline are needed to make up for it.

The same is true for this set of "swarm defense". It is suitable for teams with slightly poor athletic ability and poor individual defense ability.

Each tactic has a basic concept, and swarm defense is no exception. Its basic concept is

The speed of running is faster than sliding, so you must run as much as possible to drive your opponent's attack.

This concept seems very strange because offense has always led the opponent's defense. I have never seen it say that defense has led the opponent's attack.

In fact, it is not impossible for defense to drive offense.

Some coaches who are good at creating defensive traps will set up defensive traps after finding out their opponent's offensive paths and players' offensive habits, and will rush the ball towards the set route, and eventually fall into the encirclement, causing the opponent's mistakes.

The idea of ​​swarm defense is the same.

The so-called running is faster than sliding, which means that when you are passively defending, you use sliding movement.

Sliding is always slower than normal running.

Therefore, he asked all players to use their normal back and forth to double-team nearby ball holders.

At the same time, this double-climbing is not a high-strength compression double-climbing in the traditional sense, but a delayed resistance similar to the Bee Philosopher. Its effect is not to force the opponent to make mistakes, but to disrupt the opponent's rhythm of holding the ball and make the opponent feel pressure.

Once the opponent feels pressure and hesitates when the offensive choice is selected, the double-teamer will immediately retreat and chase back to the defender you face.

Generally, defense is waiting for the opponent to take action, while the swarm defense is to take action first to test and force the opponent to deal with it.

Each of the five people on our side was like a bee, hiding the opponent's ball-holder, making the opponent's offense completely messed up.

In the games coached by Coach Walters, he averaged more than 30 mistakes per game.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the opponent's level.

Li Liang is very smart. As soon as Mike Brown said a little, he understood the meaning of this swarm defense.

Overall, this is an attacking defense.

Since the players under his command have weak single defense capabilities, it is better to take the initiative than to sit and wait for death.

In some areas, the advantage of two to one is formed in a short period of time.

Before the opponent transfers the ball, run back to defense as soon as possible to disrupt the opponent's normal offensive rhythm.

The name "bee swarm" is indeed very good.

But Li Liang certainly had questions, saying, "Are you sure this interference will be effective for NBA-level point guards?"

Due to player ability issues, some tactics are effective in low-level leagues.

But once you reach the high level and high-level league, it will be useless.

Because the player's ability has become stronger, a bee sting may not have any effect on him.

And it is also possible to delay the ball holder, such as this kind of thing, which is usually used in defense.

It is just used as a defensive habit or targeted strategy.

To be honest, no team has tried it as the core idea of ​​strategic thinking and tactical operation.

Mike Brown said, "I think there are two reasons why we can use swarm defense. First, this defense method is not the defensive strategy that can be effective immediately and immediately. If a bee stung the elephant, the elephant will hurt, but it won't die. But many bees stung one after another, constantly stinging, the elephant will always be stung to death. The swarm defense brings more invisible and slower. What he destroys the opponent's entire offensive feeling, not the touch of some players. Second, swarm defense requires physical strength. I think D'Antoni's offensive thinking is really physically saving, and the extra physical strength is just for defense and not wasted. Third, I think that in terms of making mistakes, especially steals, you should have the final say."

What Brown said in the first place is still very reasonable, and this is an idea. There must be many details and tactical routines to be used in detail, which can be slowly tested and improved.

Secondly, when D'Antoni heard that he probably wanted to open his bald head. I designed a labor-saving tactic to increase physical fitness for the defense?

Third, Brown attempted to gain recognition by flattering.

But Li Liang's two stable steals in each game are skills obtained from the system!

Have I assigned each team member a skill? Unfortunately, the system did not give him this function, otherwise why would he have so much effort to design tactics?

However, Brown's idea of ​​"swarm defense" is indeed very attractive to Li Liang.

This kind of active defense, which is the style of a socialist guerrilla team, is quite like a socialist guerrilla team.

Maybe it can really create a base in NBA.
