Korean entertainment, I am crazy
Chapter 1592
Yang Rui emphasized the positional attack. If you can't hit the run, use the simplest pick-and-roll. The extremely fast black shooting guard Fern and center Luke did not cover the ball and moved to the right. Brad could play singles on the right. You can also spot the opportunity to pass to the empty cut Fern.
Fern has a mid-range shooting ability. It is a chance to get rid of the direct shot when he catches the ball. He misplaces the big man in the domestic front and has a chance to break through with speed. Even if he doesn't make it, there is also a mobile 201CM power forward Oscar who is responsible for rushing for the offensive rebounds. ball.
After the offense, the players must counter-rob on the spot and change the false defense to a "full-court press". The time has come to test the Chinese team.
Know yourself and the enemy, and a hundred battles will never end.
The Chinese men's basketball team knew nothing about this Knicks and was at a disadvantage from the beginning.As the head coach, Yang Rui understands the Chinese men's basketball team and grew up watching them.
To say what defensive tactics the Chinese men's basketball fears most, fans can tell, it is "full court press."
The full-court press is usually an anti-offense tactic when one's position is not well maintained, or when there is not much time left in the game, and when one's side is still a few points behind.
All players start from the opponent's bottom line, press close defense one-on-one, block all the opponent's passing routes as much as possible, and put pressure on the ball holder, causing the opponent to make a mistake, thus launching a fast break and scoring.
Such defense usually has unexpected effects, but it is very physical, so it is generally not a last resort or when the situation on the court is particularly tense, the coach generally does not use it.Once the players are exhausted, all tactics can no longer be carried out.
The Knicks don't care. Given the limited playing time of the benches, it doesn't make much sense to retain physical strength.
Because there are few opportunities to try this kind of tactics, domestic players can't get training, there are not many ways to deal with this kind of tactics, they lack experience, and there are very few people who can break the pressure.
The national team during the Yao Ming era was afraid of this, let alone 1997?Yang Rui hit the men's basketball team by surprise.
Wu Qinglong, Fan Bin, and Liu Yudong made mistakes one after another and were beaten back by the Knicks. The score difference quickly widened to 30 points.
Zhang Bin's request for a suspension is useless, and positional warfare is equally unstoppable.Wang Zhizhi exits, the men's basketball center is "hexagonal player" Ji Minshang.
Unfortunately, the "hexagon" refers not to Da Ji's ability value, but to the shape of his face. His ability is very average. The floor flow of 210CM is extremely slow. The CIC is relatively good. It is a tragedy.
Li Xiaoyong rested on the sidelines for a while, wearing big sunglasses to brush his presence, coach Zhang Bin couldn't wait."You go up again, or you can't stand up to other guards."
Li Xiaoyong returned to the court ahead of schedule. The country is waiting for them to win glory for the country in the Asian Championship. This live broadcast is to make a good start, not to pour cold water.
After playing for a few minutes, Yang Rui felt that the players were physically exhausted and chose to substitute. In addition to Bowen, the four main players came on the field. Brad continued to play, standing in the corner and waiting for three-pointers to attract defense.
Jackson began to show his strength, scoring several air cut layups and jumpers.Facing Liu Yudong, his speed and body are obviously superior.
The Chinese team's protection of backcourt rebounds is too poor. Ben Wallace grabs the frontcourt rebound and scores to the outside. It is easy for teammates to pull away.
The Chinese team is not shrinking, it is vigorous.After shrinking so much, Brad showed his power again, hitting two three-pointers in the right corner.
The Knicks led 68 to 35 at halftime.
During the intermission, there was already news on the Chinese Internet. At this time, Netease, Sohu, and Sina were not there. The biggest one was the website called "Win Haiwei".
"Mysterious East coach coached the Knicks Summer League team, leading the Chinese men's basketball team by a big halftime."
"The new assistant coach for the Knicks looks like a Chinese."
"Summer League match between China and the United States, young Asian coaches steal the spotlight on the sidelines."
The American fans on the scene are also very curious about where Yang Rui is from. Rare is precious. If young American coaches show the limelight, no one cares. There are too many.Asian coaches are different because they are unique.
In the second half, the Chinese men's basketball team still had no good way to defend the Knicks. They had poor shooting opportunities and couldn't get rebounds.The biggest headache is the fast break. When a few qualified men rushed up, they couldn't stop them if they didn't foul.
Jackson, Atkins, Big Ben, and Moore are all hilarious, and Bowen has also played his own specialties.
In the final 123 to 71, the Knicks won by 52 points.
At the end of the game, the Chinese players were in a bad mood. This feeling was too uncomfortable. They never took the lead from start to finish.
After entering the quarterfinals in the 1996 Olympics, male basketball stars generally have a mentality of arrogance, and now these pride has been ruthlessly broken up.
Known as the "Xiaoyao King", Gong Xiaobin scored 4 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist.
When Wang Zhizhi first joined the national team, he was very excited, training every day, but Gong Xiaobin didn't work hard, just practice casually.Wang Zhizhi asked him why he didn't practice well. He said, "No challenge, what should I practice?"
Now Gong Xiaobin should be able to understand one thing, that is, to be the king and hegemony in the CBA, in the NBA, it is a challenge for him to just pull out an individual.Moore, who played against him for a long time, played 24 minutes and scored 16 points and 7 rebounds.
Ben Wallace beat Wang Zhizhi. He played 29 minutes and scored 6 points, but he had 23 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 4 blocks. This data is simply amazing.
Atkins scored the most points with 36 points and 3 assists and made 6 three-pointers.
Jackson had 22 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, the most comprehensive.
Yang Rui walked onto the court and shook hands with Zhang Bin and greeted him in Mandarin."Hello, my name is Yang Rui, and I am lucky to meet you."
"My name is Zhang Bin..." Zhang Bin was mentally prepared for a long time, and was surprised when he heard him speak standard Mandarin."You don't look very old, how come you are a coach in the Knicks?"
"I'm 23 years old, it's not big." Yang Rui smiled and said: "The Chinese men's basketball team has too many shortcomings. You have to work hard, otherwise I'm afraid you will lose this Asian Championship."
Hearing this, Zhang Bin felt uncomfortable and had to admit that the opponent has arrogant capital. This game is the best proof.There is not a well-known player in the Knicks, who wins by tactics, and being a coach in the NBA is a symbol of genius.
Zhang Bin asked curiously: "Are you in China before? Why have I never heard of you?"
"I am a Chinese who grew up in the United States. I am longing for China. I will definitely go back to see if I take the time." Yang Rui smiled.
Zhang Bin felt a little more comfortable.In this era, many people admire foreigners, and look at everything that is good from a foreign country. A Chinese born in the United States says that he yearns for China, which makes people feel good.
"What do you think is the weakness of the Chinese men's basketball team? Is there anything to pay attention to?"
"Defensively is too bad. It is very important to prevent outside shots. The center can't just stand under the basket. For example, the Asian Championships against teams like South Korea. I think it can play small ball tactics. People who move fast on the inside are good for pick and rolls. Yes, I’m going to break the frontcourt and press. I’m leaving now. I’m glad to meet you."
After speaking, Yang Rui and Xibodu returned to the locker room together.
Zhang Bin recalled Yang Rui's suggestion and hit the nail on the head.The South Korean team does not have an excellent offense at the basket, and it is really unnecessary to have two big men.Although the loss was miserable, there were still gains.After the game, the Chinese reporter accompanying the team conducted an exclusive interview with Zhang Bin.After confirming that Yang Rui is of Chinese descent, everyone is a little excited. No matter what nationality he is, he is the one who can speak Mandarin.
With a group of unknown players playing in the national team, Yang Rui proved his strength and his photos were published in many Chinese newspapers the next day.
There are more and more fans in China watching the NBA. Yang Rui became a coach at the age of 23.
In the United States, Yang Rui did not have reporters to interview.Unlike in the 21st century, there is not so much attention in the summer league. Journalists should pay more attention to those potential rookies.The Knicks have no big names, except for Stephen Jackson, they are a group of losers.
The Knicks management dispelled their doubts, even if they could not win in the end, Yang Rui deserves praise for this game.
In the second game, the Knicks' opponent was the Lakers.
After a season of tempering, Kobe has entered a stable rotation lineup. The coaching staff does not need him to participate in the summer league. This time the Lakers have sent marginal players. The leader is the second-round rookie, 183CM point guard DeJuan Witte .
A group of uninfluenced players faced the five strongmen selected by Yang Rui, and the ending was no accident. The Lakers were battered at halftime.
114 to 74, the Knicks won by 40 points.
Six people on the team scored in double figures, and the two blue-collars tried their best to show their defensive talents. The offense has nothing to do with them.
Yang Rui clearly told Bowen that he would practice the right corner three-pointer, not even the left, and focus on the defensive end.Do these things to ensure that he can stay with the Knicks in the new season.
Ben Wallace’s task is equally simple. On the offensive end, he doesn’t care about anything but the basket. He controls the rebounds, resists from the low post, and helps to block the shots!
Both of them have a big head when it comes to offense. They don't know how to play if they don't.As a result, the opponents will be unlucky. Now put these two in the NBA, and the defensive end is also high.
Wallace played 31 minutes, 12 points, 22 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 7 blocks. Among them, 10 offensive rebounds were abnormal data.
Bowen had 5 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist. He played 26 minutes and his opponent wanted to cry.
The strongest offense was still Jackson and Atkins, who scored 26 and 24 points respectively.
After getting the battle report, the manager Ernie Grunfeld called a meeting of management staff and announced the good news."The second big win over the Lakers, it seems that we have to prepare a party to celebrate, the boss of this money is definitely happy to give it. Glen, do you think Jerry can lead the team to the victory now?"
"I think this kid is a monster now. A team of marginal players can play this kind of game. It's really..." Glenn Walsh got stuck and couldn't find a suitable word to describe it.
"Can't explain, right? Jeff, what do you think?" Ernie asked with a smile.
Van Gundy was almost curiously unable to sit still, and wanted to go to Long Beach to watch the game.But no, if I go, I don't know what he will be said in the news.
He said seriously: "I think Jerry is rehearsing the Knicks' offensive tactics for the new season. Moore is like Ewing, who is responsible for air cuts and mid-range shots after screens, and Wallace is like Oakley, who is responsible for defense and rebounding. Atkins is like Houston, in charge of running, catching and shooting. Jackson is suitable for chaos and can pass the ball. As for Bowen, he should be outstanding defensively."
Scott Maguire asked: "Is this the team's starter?"
"Yeah, what's the matter?" Van Gundy asked back.
Scott swallowed and spit, and smiled bitterly: "This is the list that Jerry reported to me before. He only selected five people, these five..."
hiss.In the conference room, everyone took a breath.
The few people looked at each other. If Yang Rui hadn't beaten them, he would be optimistic about these five people. How to explain?Innate insight?If playing well is due to tactics, he can really only describe it as "enchanted".
In the summer league, not many teams are willing to choose blue-collar. The selection criteria for each team is to find good data, so this kind of game is usually strong and weak.Yang Ruijian went slant and chose two blue collars, but they played a big role.
"Anyway, I don't have any problems with this kid." Glenn agreed with Yang Rui bachelor."Hey, don't look at me that way, it's just that he is really too young, so I suspect that he is incapable. Now I am the first to approve of him as an assistant."
Ernie smiled: "I hope he can bring more surprises."
In the third game, the Knicks defeated the Warriors 106 to 88.
Stephen Jackson showed his power, scoring 38 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists.When the players have hot hands, the Warriors have a small defender on the side. Jackson did a good job, how to shoot, and 7 of 11 three-pointers.
Shooting three-pointers is not his strong point, and it is unreasonable to get convulsions.
In the fourth game, the Knicks defeated the Suns 110 to 103.
The points difference is not big, because Yang Rui changed the style of play, Bowen and Wallace truce, and both sides attacked.Many people won't get the chance to play in the preseason, and Yang Rui gave them time to perform.
Facts have proved that black players with low quotient have no future, and there are stars in the scramble battle. How can it be possible to let the marginal people who are not defensive go up?Except for the five future strongmen selected by Yang Rui, only Brad Jones performed well. He has a high basketball quotient, accurate shooting, and poor confrontation.
In the face of the bad Suns, the Knicks almost lost.Jackson and the field were judged to be two people, 6 of 21 shots, 7 three-pointers missed, and free throws only 14 points.
Jackson took the initiative to bow his head to apologize to Yang Rui after the game, for fear of losing the chance to play the preseason for the Knicks.
Yang Rui forgave him generously."I can understand why you want to behave, because the sun gave up on you, but next time you want to show up, you must use a smarter way."
The blue-collars have an obvious role. Bowen’s main offensive point, Parker, feels nothing. No matter how bad his offense is, his starting position is unmovable. He is second in the team in average minutes per game, second only to Ben Wallace.
Big Ben is stronger, grabs every rebound and dominates the basket.
Jackson also performed well, as a cameo power forward to defend the No. 7 pick Thomas in the second half.
Atkins and Moore promised to attack firepower. With 3 minutes left in the game, the Knicks led by 20 points and the victory was set.
Yang Rui asked Brad to sit next to him and talk to him alone."Your shooting is very good, averaging 15.3 points per game, 44% from three-point shooting, eye-catching data, but your defense and organization are too poor, and you suffer from confrontation. In order not to delay your job search, I will now give you a letter. You definitely have no chance to play the preseason for the Knicks, unfortunately."
Brad was immediately lost."I know."
"Don't give up, you are still young. I have a suggestion that suits you. If you don't mind leaving home, you can go to the Chinese CBA League to try. I think you will become a star there."
Yang Rui knows that there is no confrontation in CBA at this time.
"..." Brad bit his lip and said awkwardly "thank you".
The 24-year-old was really awkward when he heard the 23-year-old say "you are still young"!
