Chapter 479 The 76ers walking on the tightrope! 【Subscription】
The 76ers, this disparate zone defense, took credit for the first time it was placed, and the Celtics missed their first offense. Ratliff took the rebound and found Iverson at the first time and passed it. At this time, Lin Long was still near the bottom line, and Iverson took advantage of the precious time when Lin Long was not around to run wild, and finally enjoyed the long-lost gallop!
Billups and Sprewell couldn't catch up with him at all, and could only watch Iverson's fast-break dunks succeed!
Bird frowned on the sidelines, of course he could see that Larry Brown made this thing, is an absolutely complete illegal joint defense!
This is a defense that is not allowed on the NBA arena.
However, Bird can also see that the 76ers' zone defense is a bit different no matter how you look at it.
There is no pressure on the ball carrier that the zone defense should have, and there is no quick rotation and assist defense that the zone defense should have.
The quality of this zone defense is inferior to that of a team of high school students who are proficient in defensive tactics!
The Celtics failed to hit the first offense. It was purely Billups trying to test what the defense was about.
In the second round, Billups dribbled the ball to the frontcourt again, and the 76ers were still in that weird position, which made him a little confused about what the 76ers were going to do.
Billups patted the ball and tried to force a breakthrough towards Iverson!
Although Billups' speed is not as fast as Iverson or half of the league's point guards, he is also powerful. He steps out in one step and cooperates with his elbows and body. lethality.
Billups took two steps and suddenly found that the imagined help defense and double-teaming did not come, but the inside line actually showed a huge space for himself, allowing himself to shoot!
This kind of vacancy, Billups naturally will not let go, he takes off easily and shoots from the middle distance!
"Boom!"
Unfortunately, there was another crisp sound, and Billups felt a little uncomfortable tonight.
Ratliff grabbed the rebound again, found Iverson directly, and threw it out.
It's a pity that this time Lin Long was well prepared. He had already stood by Iverson's side and formed a personal defense against Iverson for the first time!
But Iverson was still speeding up and sprinting towards the frontcourt. Lin Long kept himself in front of Iverson and did not give him any chance to face the basket. When Iverson kept his head down, he went crazy After rushing to the Celtics' basket, this time Ivers did not choose to play hard, but suddenly passed the ball from behind and gave the ball to Snow who was following up on the other side.
.
"Don't try to make a layup!" Lin Long roared, and swung towards Snow with his teeth and claws!
The calm Snow also seemed a little unsettled at this moment. He was really scared by Lin Long and didn't dare to lay up, but stood still and made a mid-range shot!
"Boom!"
Snow's style of play tonight is no better than Billups, and the open jumper is also finished!
Lin Long under the basket grabbed the rebound and raised his elbow directly, giving Iverson no chance to steal the ball!
Then Lin Long dribbled the ball and directed the movement of Billups and others. He wanted to try the so-called zone defense of the 76ers.
Lin Long just came to the frontcourt and the Sixers defense changed!
It was no longer Iverson and Snow at the top of the arc, but Snow and Lynch standing at the top of the arc. At the same time, these two guys didn't hesitate, they rushed up from left to right and attacked Lin Long. It's a double-team fight!
Lin Long frowned, still not in a hurry to play hard, but saw clearly that the big Ben in the inside became tougher after losing two offensive rebounds in a row, and stuck Ratliff behind him, Lin Long immediately A high-profile, basketball over Ratliff, directly to the basket.
(dbdd)
At this time, Hill was still far away from the 3-point line, and was unable to defend at all. Big Ben took the basketball with both hands, slammed his butt towards the back, and stumbled against Ratliff before violently in place. , smashed the ball into the basket with both hands, and finally opened the scoring for the team!
In the following time, Lin Long kept trying to use various methods to attack the defense of the 76ers. Slowly, he discovered the secret of the so-called zone defense of Larry Brown!
This isn't zone defense at all, or rather, it's a variant of 1-to-1 defense.
If Billups or Sprewell were holding the ball at the top of the arc, the 76ers would hide Iverson and prevent them from hitting Iverson in the back. As for the way to hide.
Just use this fake zone defense to leave a lot of space for the Celtics beyond the 3-point line and in the mid-range!
Let the Celtics take long shots.
Of course, except for Lin Long! When Lin Long hit the ball at the top of the arc, two people would immediately rush up to double-team Lin Long, not giving him a chance to shoot easily.
This defense, in simple terms, is not guarding other people, preferring to let them take easy shots than to let Lin Long play with the ball.
This defense, to put it more directly, is not to defend the other Celtics players, let them have fun, but don't try to take advantage of Iverson.
It's just that Larry Brown has put a zone defense on the system.
Lin Long finally understood why Larry Brown dared to take out this defense without fear of the league's punishment.
With such a thing, Naismith could jump out of the coffin and shout:
"Slander! He slandered me! This is not a joint defense!"
In Game 5 of the series, Larry Brown started his all-or-nothing approach! Defend with no defense, and use a defensive tactic that challenges the league's bottom line to protect his only star who can consistently score.
He's forcing all Celtics players except Lin Long to shoot.
His subtext is somewhat insulting to the Celtics players.
Shoot whatever you want except Lin Long! I don't believe you can beat me with a role player shot!
This seemingly complicated defensive tactic is nothing special as long as it is really said!
This is not a joint defense at all, it is just a man-to-man with a weird position!
Soon, players other than Lin Long discovered the defense's secret.
