210 Queen's Stinger

281 Gentry’s tactical requirements

"The situation is that although we are sitting in the sixth place in the West, there are many teams behind us. And the gap between them and us is not very big. As long as we are negligent, they will suppress us.

More than half of this season have passed. I don’t want us to be suppressed by other teams at the end and cannot enter the playoffs. Now, for us, any game is crucial. You all know that the competition in the West has always been very fierce. This game is the most difficult game we encountered before the playoffs. If the game is like this, I have to bear the main responsibility, but now it is not a matter of who is responsible. Anyway, the game is the first quarter, and we have enough time to make up for the mistakes.

I don't need to say more about the Pistons, the top team in the league. In the last fight, everyone had a personal feeling about them. Now they have traded and have strengthened their strength. Although our foothold in this game is offense, everyone knows in their hearts that with our current lineup, we cannot tear their defense apart. So what should we do? We can only improve our own defensive strength and strengthen our defense while not giving up on the offense. We have no choice but to do this method. The Pistons' offense and defense are excellent, and in the game, they like it more.

It's defense, and offense has only become more powerful in the recent season. Moreover, they just finished trading, so there will definitely be problems in their cooperation with each other. Therefore, we can only force the opponent to make mistakes through high-intensity defense and then use our fast break. In this way, we will have hope. "Elwin Gentry's tactical arrangement is very simple, which is to strengthen the defense, then force the opponent to make mistakes, then run quickly, run a large range of times, and use speed to bring the offense. As long as there is an opportunity, don't hesitate and quickly throw the ball to the basket.

I have to say that Elvin Gentry's analysis is still very reasonable. However, there is no way to do it. If even these basic tactics cannot be analyzed, Elvin Gentry will not be able to get the position of head coach.

Although this may happen, the Suns may have many unreasonable moves, but it is better to lose opportunities in their hands again and again! However, once the Suns are under pressure on the inside, and in addition to putting enough pressure on the Pistons in offense, they must also maintain a certain state in rebounds.

However, the Suns' overall performance in the interior today was not very good. Except for Marcin Gotat's performance, other inside players did not perform very well.

During this timeout, the Pistons made some adjustments to the roster. Spencer Hawys replaced Samuel Durhamport and Andre Iguodala replaced Ben Gordon. Both players who ended up perform well just now. The reason why John Custer replaced them was to give them enough rest time to ensure that the entire game has enough impact.

The Pistons' substitutions did not have a big impact on their offense. These people had also made the first appearance in the previous regular season, and with Andre Iguodala on the court, John Custer naturally had nothing to worry about.

Elvin Gentry looked at the Pistons' players with red eyes. After playing for so long, he should have made some adjustments to the lineup. In addition to ensuring the players' physical strength, if a lineup is played on the court for too long, the opponent will gradually find a way to deal with it. However, after scanning the several players on the bench, he suppressed the impulse in his heart. Now the score has been pulled apart by his opponent so much. If he is swaying at this time, there is no need to continue the following game.

Steve Nash gently wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the hair on his forehead became glued together because of the sweat. Amare Stodmeier's transfer made the Suns' inside line look very weak. Without Amare Stodmeier's pick-and-roll, the other players' sense of barriers was really bad. On two occasions, they did not block the defensive players, but blocked Steve Nash's breakthrough route.

Steve Nash knew very well that he wanted to change his previous style of playing and blindly look for three-pointers on the outside. Now it seems unlikely. Zhou Yi's close-fitting defense was like a maggot with bones. As soon as the ball came to his hands, he immediately appeared beside him, leaving no gap for him.

Although Steve Nash is confident that he has time to break through Zhou Yi's defense, it is also very physically exhausting. And letting the other four people watch on the side, playing alone is not the game style that Steve Nash likes. And such a barely breakthrough may not necessarily lead to any chance. He has always believed that as a qualified organizational guard, the team's brain is that in his constant operation, any pass can create an excellent offensive opportunity. The ball is too sticking to the hands of a player. For the players and the team, it is probably not a good thing, nor is it in line with the team's group spirit.

The ball was quickly handed to Marsin Gotat's hand. Marsin Gotat dribbles with his right hand, focusing his strength on his left shoulder, constantly pressing against Spencer Hoyce behind him, and approaching the basket step by step. Faced with Marsin Gotat's strong hit, Spencer Hoyce performed very tenaciously in the confrontation, firmly guarding the small area under the basket.

Seeing the time pass by little by little, Marsin Gotat knew that if this continues, he might not be able to get a bargain. Taking advantage of the opportunity to exert force, the ball quickly handed over to the outside.

The opportunity that finally appeared was not easy, and Steve Nash naturally would not miss it. The moment the ball was reached, the person had jumped up quickly. The ball stayed in his hand for a very short time and flew out from his fingers.

After landing, Steve Nash breathed a sigh of relief. In the past few minutes of the game, he saw the opponent tie the score and overtake, and the scores of both sides became bigger and bigger, but he was unable to succeed on the outside. He felt very frustrated. This goal greatly exclaimed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Steve Nash hit a three-pointer, allowing the Suns to narrow the gap to 9 points, and now the score on both sides is 37:28.

There are 36 seconds left before the end of the first quarter, and the Pistons have the ball.

The Pistons' offense was perfect and their defense was excellent. All the players on the court could play a role. The multi-point bloom made it difficult for the opponent to defend. The Suns only rely on Steve Nash's score to bite the score tightly and finally ended the first quarter with a score of 30.43.

"Guide Zhang, the first quarter game between the two sides has become such a situation. What do you think? In your opinion, how can the Suns get rid of the current adverse situation?" Yu Jia turned around and asked.

"Actually, it's not surprising that the game will be like this. Both teams are the best teams in the league that are good at attacking. When such teams are successful in offense, they will naturally be invincible, but once the offense is frustrated, the scene will be ugly. The Pistons have played their own characteristics today, both offense and defense, and the Suns lost a general at the beginning of the game, which naturally caused a great blow to the morale of the army. With their current situation, they can only rely on Nash." Zhang Heli looked at the data in his hand and said endlessly.

However, with Steve Nash in the Suns, the team is naturally hopeless. Basketball is a collective event, but stars can often determine the direction of the game at some critical moments. At some critical moments, they are definitely qualified to decide the outcome of the game.

Elvin Gentry also has this idea in his heart. During the game break, he gave orders to several other players. He must be more aggressive in the game. When he has the opportunity, he must not miss the opportunity. If he has no chance, he does not have to force it. He should focus more energy on defense. Some unstoppable goals should be adopted in a timely manner, and the Pistons cannot easily make the Pistons succeed. However, if you want to make a foul, you should be more ruthless and ensure that the opponent will not be allowed to play 2+1, so that the Pistons' scorers should also be frightened when shooting.

It is easy to use foul tactics against a team like the Pistons, which shows that Elvin Gentry has reached a desperate situation, but this is not a bad idea. The Pistons scorer must also have some concerns when shooting.

The Pistons' "Bad Boys Legion" relied on their violent and fierce playing style to win two championships, and also kept "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan out of the finals several times. Everyone was afraid of meeting the Pistons because the Pistons' style of playing was too tough and even dirty.

The worst of the "Bad Boys" back then was their center Bill Ranbir, one of the most troublesome characters in NBA history and one of the most brutal and dirty players in NBA. When he defended, he was more rushing to others than to rush to the ball. Many players were worried when they met him, fearing that he would be sneered.
