This Forward is Not Serious

Chapter 17: The past and present of the three-corner offense

   For Springman, the biggest difference between old Winter and Phil Jackson is that the former "walked" out of the NCAA.

   Old Winter was under 30 when he started coaching the NCAA in 1952. He was the youngest NCAA coach at the time.

  After nearly 20 years of coaching in college, he entered the NBA to start his coaching career, and became Phil Jackson's assistant coach in 1985, opening the great era of triangle offense in the NBA.

   Now, the 84-year-old Winter is no longer an assistant coach for Phil Jackson, but a team consultant for the Lakers.

   There are two reasons why Springman chose the old Winter.

   One is that the old Winter is a native of Texas, and he will naturally have extra interest in the Texas team.

  二, it means that their opponent in the next game is Kansas State University.

   Although Kansas State University is not as famous as the University of Kansas, it is more famous than the University of Texas.

  The ancestors said they had a Hall of Fame player, Mickey Richmond.

   Domestic fans should not be too familiar with him.

   This is a star who is contemporary with Jordan. A brief list of his achievements:

   NBA Rookie of the Year, 6 NBA All-Star lineups, one All-Star Game MVP, 3 times 2 teams, 2 times 3 teams, member of the 96 dream team, member of the 2002 Lakers champion, career average of 21 points.

   Compared with the previous "Batman" Tony Barty of Texas Tech, this is a very dazzling existence.

   But even for a legendary player of this level, the influence of Kansas State is still not comparable to that of the old Winter.

  Old Winter started in 1954 and left the NCAA in 1969. He coached in Kansas State for 15 years.

   In the past 15 years, he led the team to eight times into the NCAA Elite Eight, and two times reached the final four, he himself was elected NCAA Coach of the Year.

   It can be said that Kansas State was the absolute tycoon of the NCAA during that period, and it was always at the top of the power list.

   So through the opportunity of playing against Kansas State Interchange to get in touch with the old Winter, coupled with the identity of the Texas team, it should still be possible to meet.

   Three days later, the University of Texas played at home against Kansas State University.

   Kansas State University’s current strength ranks among the top in the big 12 league, and the team’s star is the junior Kadir Martin.

   Martin was selected to the second team of the big12 last season and has a strong scoring ability.

   In history, Martin participated in the draft after four years of college and failed in the draft, but he played in the NBA with his own efforts. He is also an inspirational figure.

   The game was fierce, but Durant scored consecutively at the critical moment, and the University of Texas won the game 71-61.

   After the game technical statistics, Durant had a maximum of 27 points, Lin Ying had 13 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists.

   After the game, Springman found the head coach of Kansas State University and contacted the old Winter through his phone.

  Old Winter is more enthusiastic than he thought.

   The triangle offense is very successful in the NBA, but now no one except the Lakers is using this tactic, even Kansas State is not using it.

   Because this tactic has very high requirements for team configuration and tactical literacy.

   In a sense, it means a single pass.

   So someone is willing to learn, old Winter is naturally very happy, because it means that his life's hard work can be passed on.

   The communication was very pleasant, and the two were scheduled to meet in two days.

   After confirming the time, Springman found Durant and Lin Ying, and he was going to take the two to meet Old Winter.

   If you can get old Winter's "karma to solve", it will definitely help the two of them master the triangle offense.

   Lin Ying was still a little excited when she heard that Springman was going to take him to see old Winter.

   There is a saying that seeing it is better than hearing it.

   Before, his triangle offense was just a noun, no different from Princeton, running bombing, and pick-and-roll tactics.

   But I watched the Lakers and Bulls game before, and after really looking at it with a research attitude, I discovered the awesomeness of this tactic.

   It is like seeing a great painting, and you are going to meet the painter who painted it now!

   And the place where Springman and Old Winter agreed to meet is also very interesting, which is an indoor arena in Los Angeles.

   This means that Old Winter is going to teach Durant how to play triangle tactics!

   Old Winter has gray hair, swollen and wrinkled face, what a western man in his 80s should have.

   But his spirit still seems very vigorous.

   In history, this man lived a full 96 years old, almost a hundred years, and definitely considered a longevity among NBA players.

   For Springman's direct behavior, old Winter said...I like it very much!

   He had the heart to teach, Springman also brought the players, which is much more convenient.

   And I have heard of him Durant. The top three high school students in the United States have shown top scoring talents this season. It is hard not to be noticed.

   He was a little surprised when he saw Lin Ying. He thought that Springman would bring the traditional big center forward.

   However, in the next chat and presentation session, Old Winter had a new understanding of Lin Ying.

   And another big man soon appeared in his mind.

   Tony Kukoc.

   "They are very suitable for this tactic."

   After realizing this, he also gave Springman a reassurance.

   Then, he started to teach.

  Triangular offense is a systematic offense.

  According to the old Winter's explanation, it is an offensive tactic based on "interpretation and reaction".

   This is a bit difficult to understand. To put it simply, read the opponent's defense, and then establish a reasonable triangle to find a chance to score.

   This is a concept, and then based on different positions and end points, it can be roughly divided into four types of offenses, namely: Low.Post, Pinch.Post, Corner.Pnr and PnrBlind.Pig.

  , translated into Chinese, means low position singles, weak side horns, corner picks and rolls, and blind pigs.

   Of course, these are the four basic tactics. Just like the concept emphasized by the old Winter, the triangle offense is not a fixed position, it needs to be read and reacted.

   So many detailed tactics have evolved from these four basic tactics, which are endless.

   Then the old Winter, based on Durant and Lin Ying's technical characteristics, paid attention to Low.Post, which is the tactics of low singles.

   Lin Ying saw Jordan fall in the low post and Kukoc's style of holding the ball at the top of the arc is actually one of the evolutionary tactics of low post singles.

  The only difference is that the original low position has been changed from an inside line to an outside line.

   Like Lin Ying thought before, this tactic is to play Jordan's destructive power in the low post.

   Of course, what Old Winter said was not just what Lin Ying thought of, he talked a lot about the details of this low post attack alone.

   Because as he said at the beginning, the core of the triangle offense is reading and reacting, so reading is the prerequisite.

   Just like ordinary people playing basketball, the one with a low level is to first think about what technique to use to launch an offense, and the one with a high level is to choose which technique to attack based on the defense.

   So when will Durant sink to the inside? This is a very detailed question.

   Then if you can't play this tactic, it doesn't matter, the triangle offense can be switched at any time.

  Old Winter went on to talk about Corner.Pnr, which is a corner pick and roll.

   Corner pick-and-rolls are generally a tactic with the coordination of the first and third positions.

   This requires a certain amount of breakthrough and shooting ability in the first position, and a good passing ability in the third position.

  For more specifics, refer to Pippen and Cole of the Bulls and Odom and Fisher of the Lakers in history.

This tactic is launched at a forty-five-degree angle. The first position gives the ball to the third position, and then the third position pick-and-roll picker passes the ball to start the offense. You can go to the corner to shoot three-pointers or borrow the basket. The pick-and-roll at the fifth position breaks and scores, or goes inside to directly break the score.

   Still press the sentence, read and react, and choose the most reasonable offensive line according to the opponent's defensive focus.

   Then, like the low post attack, this tactic does not necessarily have to be the first and third positions.

   has breakthrough and shooting ability, Augustine can, he is also the number one.

   But the role of the third position can be played by Lin Ying in the fourth position, because Lin Ying's passing ability is better.

   And he also has a stable outside shooting ability, which can create more offensive space for the first position.

   The feature of this tactic is that Durant does not have to participate, and can be used when Durant is resting off the court.

   was just a few simple explanations of tactics, and Lin Ying felt that the door to her new world had been opened a lot.

   And he also realized that the conclusions he had obtained by watching the video analysis before were still one-sided.

   The true triangle offense is not just a superstar singles tactic, it is far more complex and advanced than imagined.

   Teaching karma to solve puzzles is really different from simply reading a theory book.

   One afternoon is very fast, if possible, Lin Ying hopes the time can go slower.

   But the old Winter is getting older after all, and explaining to them all the afternoon consumes almost the same energy.

   And when he finished explaining, his view of Lin Ying was completely different from when he first came.

   This thing is just like a real class. After the teacher finishes the class, the students will be able to distinguish whether they are good or bad.

   Specifically, when he was parting, Old Winter not only gave Lin Ying a copy of the book he had brought, but also wrote his own mailbox on it.

   "If you have any questions, you can email me."

   This is Chi Guoguo's preference.

   But there is nothing wrong with it, gold always shines.

   Springman's appreciation of Lin Ying before, and now old Winter's preference, these are all proofs.

   Or you can understand it as a kind of talent, tactical talent.

   Just like in many fantasy novels, Lin Ying's technology tree is different from others.

   But there are few people who practice in different science and technology trees, and naturally it is easy to get the favor of people of the same kind.

   I have a theory and understanding, and then I have training.

   Triangle tactics are not so simple to master.

   Just like in history, after a series of failed teaching assistants, Phil Jackson once said that he was not surprised.

  Because the triangle tactics require a lot of basic training, to improve the players' ability to read the game, passing ability, tacit understanding and so on.

   This is by no means as simple as "being chased, falling off a cliff, not dying, and acquiring magical skills" as in the novel.

   However, half of the training content for Lin Ying and Durant is basic training, so they get started much faster than others.

   Barnes's sophisticatedness is also reflected at this time.

   The team is training the triangle offense, but he just doesn't use it, just plays... he doesn't.

   He is not in a hurry to apply the team's new tactics to the game, because he knows that if the new tactics are used to lose, it will be very damaging to the players' motivation to train.

   This is the same as holding a big move, you can’t let the progress bar come out if you don’t hold it well.

   and Barnes also has the capital to hold big moves.

   The University of Texas has a good record recently and can't beat Kansas, but it is still very sure when facing other opponents.

   Time flies, and one month later.

   In the past month, the University of Texas played a total of 6 games, including 2 invitational games, with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss.

   As the tacit understanding of the new starting lineup has increased, the team’s competitiveness has continued to improve.

   And with this wave of good records, their ranking in the big12 division also came to the third position.

   At this time, Barnes began to play the triangle offense.

   In the first game in February, the University of Texas and Texas Tech ushered in the second encounter of the season.

   This time is at the home court of Texas Tech.

   is this game. The fans who arrived have seen the triangle offensive tactics again in the NCAA arena after many years.

   Although this triangle offense is a little different from what they had seen before, it is equally effective. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com

   Lin Ying's passing ability, Augustine's three-pointers and breakthroughs, and even James' air-cut ability, all have been very well displayed in the game.

   Of course, what gives the fans the most visual impact is Durant's huge lethality in the low post.

   Originally, because the NCAA has a small venue, it is difficult for you to feel comfortable in low-post singles like the NBA.

   But the triangle tactics solved this problem.

   After Wendell blocked the Texas Tech center, Durant got a lot of low singles opportunities at the basket.

   The NCAA's absolute height and wingspan at the fifth position, and a significantly improved confrontation compared to the beginning of the season, he has a lot of advantages in playing opposing forwards and guards.

   Even if Wendell doesn't get stuck there sometimes, Durant can easily kill the opposing center after turning around.

   "He played like Michael Jordan!"

   Even the home commentator couldn't help but sigh after seeing Durant's performance.

   In the end, Durant scored 35 points and successfully avenged Texas Tech with a season-high scoring rate.

   "He called me Michael! Michael!"

   In the passage back to the locker room after the game, Durant shouted at Lin Ying with excitement.

   Durant’s excitement can be understood. Jordan is a god-like existence in the mind of a basketball player.

  Although the commentator may say that more because he thinks of Jordan's low singles scene when the Bulls played.

   But no matter what it is, it is already a very high praise to compare you with Jordan.

   Lin Ying couldn't hide his excitement and nodded.

   There is still a month to go to fight Kansas again, but he is already a little impatient.
