Chapter 062 Understanding Harden's Law
2 minutes ago.
"You mean let Michael Rant play pick-and-roll with you?" Wildcats bench, Wildcats head coach McLopp and other Wildcats players all looked at Lin Yi with confusion, especially baby-faced Stephen Curry.
"No! Coach, to be precise, every round in the next. I will play pick-and-roll with whoever faces Harden. If Harden and Stephen face directly, then let Stephen play singles directly." Lin Yi said concisely.
"In defense, we don't care about how James Harden scores. We just need to be optimistic about the other four people of the Suns Devils. Of course, try not to make James Harden score too easy, and find a way to create confrontation and intensity for him!" As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, McLopp seemed to have noticed something.
"Continue!" McLopp's eyes flashed.
"Then we perform rotation normally, but when the rotation lineup is changed, Stephen Curry and I must keep it alone on the court, and then go to Harden to fight one-on-one every round." McLopp already fully understood Lin Yi's meaning.
We have two aces, and you only have one!
Your advantage is that the level of other players is above the rest of our players. That's very simple. Let us stick to your other players and let Harden play!
Is this going to enforce the "Jordan Law" on Harden?
No, to be precise, this is the "Harden Law" for the Arizona Big Sun Devils led by a single core!"
Lin Yi knows Harden too well and is also very clear about the weaknesses of Harden's playing style!
Some people may have questions, why is Harden able to break through and pass the ball, why is his style of play weak?
The reason is very simple. According to the principle of "Basketball Physics", the total score of each team is relatively certain. No matter how the score composition changes, the total score will not change much.
In other words, if the Suns Devils can score 80 points per game and the Wildcats' defense can limit them to 75 points to win, then whether Harden scores 10 or 70 points in these 75 points, the Wildcats can win!
It was because of this relationship that the villain Chuck Daly, the godfather of that year, saw through this relationship that he firmly implemented Jordan's rules in every game against the Chicago Bulls.
But the "Harden Rule" is different. Lin Yi completely uses the future Warriors' style of playing against the Rockets!
The Rockets are determined to play Curry while eating and sleeping, while the Warriors are determined to play Harden without stopping.
During the offense, I kept looking for Harden one-on-one, consuming Harden, blocking the contact between other players and Harden in defense, preventing Harden from leading the entire team, and letting Harden play me one-on-one!
As long as James Harden's efficiency decreases, he will immediately make a resolute turnaround to widen the score gap!
The Wildcats have two aces, and they can rotate unscrupulously, but what about the Sun Demons? They dare not let Harden go out to rest. As long as Harden is tired, the Wildcats can win the game steadily.
"The last question, what if the opponent keeps attacking Stephen in a misplaced manner?" McLopp thought to himself, will the opponent copy our tactics and use Curry's law?
"Then let them play well. Stephen is an underrated defender." Lin Yi said while touching Curry's head.
Stephen Curry suddenly felt warm inside: o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
McLopp was stunned.
Stephen Curry's defense is a big weakness, which is well known. Why does Lin Yi say that Stephen is an underrated defender?
Why!
Lin Yi felt very tired of explaining.
Do you know why Stephen Curry is perverted?
It is precisely because there is really no so-called "Curry Law"! Whether this guy is accurate depends entirely on himself!
Curry's physical fitness level is far beyond the NBA average. Lin Yi's memory has one data, that is, the average running distance of the Shuis Brothers is the highest among NBA players!
Moreover, the real purpose of misaligning unlimited singles is not to capture your loopholes and beat you up. Of course, if the singles target is a character player, you will naturally still beat you up.
But if the actual situation is to rise to the level of the star, it will be completely different!
Because you can beat me, I can beat you too. You can't decide the winner if you blow each other!
The real point of singles tactics is that you are afraid of my singles packing me, and I can pass the ball unlimitedly to drive my teammates!
Or just grab your star and try your best to consume him!
To put it bluntly, I am going to be with you!
But you can't match Stephen Curry's point. Babyface is very good at saving your physical fitness. As for offense, his feel really depends on himself.
The "Harden Law" does not mean that Harden is not as good as Curry if he is restricted, but if James Harden is single-core, the "Harden Law" will be extremely useful.
This is also why St. Paul's backcourt double guns formed by him and James Harden became more powerful after joining the Houston Rockets.
Both of them seem to need ball rights, but the singles tactics actually do not have the problem of ball rights. On the contrary, if someone can share Harden's pressure in the offense, then Harden can save his physical fitness to determine the direction of the game in the last quarter!
The situation is very simple now, just like the Sun Demon fighting against the Wild Cats.
Sun Demon: Shunzi.
Wildcats: King!
Sun Demon:...
Wildcats: King!
Sun Demon:...
Wildcats: King!
Sun Demon: Is this cheating?
So there is no need to play any complicated tactics, just keep looking for Harden to match.
On the court, Lin Yi and James Harden's first showdown.
To be honest, Lin Yi failed to play three consecutive attacks with him as the core after the opening, which disappointed the Chinese media who came from afar.
Because Lin Yi is not as strong as the legendary one.
But at this moment...
Dong, Dong, Dong!
After Lin Yi made a Crossover on the outside, he successfully dodged half a step away. Then he blocked Harden with his right hand and held the basketball in his left hand and started three steps from the three-point line with his left hand!
A layup shot made!
Whether it is Feilang Sports, Penguin Sports, or CCTV reporters were stunned and stood there.
Qi Jun gave these Chinese colleagues a blank look and picked up their cameras and took photos.
Lin Yi’s iconic dribbling breakthrough!
6 to 2!
James Harden looked at Lin Yi viciously, as if saying, "Wait, I will definitely beat you!"
The game continued, the Suns Devils' offense. Although James Harden made the ball, Harden felt very twisted when he made a layup because the Wildcats' defense did not give him a chance to break through and pass the ball. The Wildcats had no intention of shrinking at all when he rushed in.
So Harden could only make layups in high-intensity confrontation.
The Sun Demons obviously have not understood the Wildcats' tactical intentions.
Lin Yi was not surprised, because although it was only a few years, the basketball concept of this era was quite backward in Lin Yi's opinion.
Then brainwash it for you.
The Wildcats' pick-and-roll tactics were made again, and it was James Harden who appeared in front of Lin Yi again!
James Harden: Wei! Although I have practiced defense more, I don’t want to be one-on-one with you, Wei!
Chapter completed!
