Pick Westbrook

Chapter 30 Opener

"I'm going to fight! I'm going to fight!"

The regular season opener has not yet started, and a large number of fans have gathered outside Bradley Arena.

In addition to fans in Milwaukee, there is also a part from another team.

A sea of ​​red, a big C team logo on the chest, and these foreign fans are holding posters of their team's superstars in their hands.

"The Bucks will win this game tonight!"

"Go back to where you came from!"

"Milwaukee will never bow to you!"

Milwaukee, wearing green jerseys, kept yelling at these outsiders and declaring war.

Although they still hated Li Lai and were even unhappy with him, they were clearly on the same starting line when it came to the big issues that were related to the team.

Most malls on the streets of Milwaukee are closed tonight, and they are watching the game tonight.

Even fans who didn't buy tickets for the opening game rushed to the streets to cheer for their team at this time.

"It's best for Li Lai to win tonight's match, or I'll break his third leg."

"It's not easy. I heard that he hasn't visited the bar street for many days, and those bunny girls have complained about it."

"I don't care that much, I'm going to see people in Cleveland leave here crying tonight!"

Bradley Arena.

The opening game begins!
The entire arena was full of voices, shouting for the Bucks one after another, and fans wearing green jerseys stood in the auditorium to form a sea of ​​green.

Li Lai looked enthusiastic.

Although he hasn't seen what the home court of the Jazz, which is known as the home of the NBA devils, looks like, but the situation of the Bucks will definitely not be too bad for them.

Hammond proudly said in the audience behind: "Boss, there is no doubt, our home atmosphere is not lost to the Jazz at all!"

At this time, the Bucks mascot Bongo, an angry buck, appeared on the sidelines of the court holding the team's flag.

Green flames spurted violently from around the stadium, and the atmosphere of the fans was fully mobilized.

The DJ sounded, and the commentator continued to read the names of the Bucks players.

Mo Williams Dragic, George Hill, Westbrook!

"Charles, listening to the roar of the mountain and the tsunami almost broke our eardrums."

Kenny Smith said with a smile on his face.

Especially when Westbrook's name was mentioned, the fans at the scene shouted the most strongly.

It's clear that Milwaukee fans have recognized the young rookie because of his performance in summer league and the preseason.

"Yes, if Westbrook can continue to perform well in the regular season tonight, then the Milwaukee Bucks can undoubtedly announce that they have successfully rebuilt and have selected a qualified team-building core."

Barkley still misses Westbrook's performance in the summer league, especially in the last game against the Bulls. Westbrook and Rose's scoring exchange still impressed him deeply.

"But their opponent is the Cleveland Cavaliers!"

Kenny Smith let out a long sigh.

If it was any other team, the Bucks might have hope of winning, but it is really difficult for the Bucks to win this Cavaliers alone.

"Last season, the Cavaliers were fourth in the league in defensive efficiency, allowing 95 points per game.

And in the playoffs, they raised this stat to the first place among the playoff teams!
Averaged only 87 points per game. "

Barkley sighed. If it weren't for the fact that the Cavaliers' offense was completely driven by James alone, they would not necessarily lose in the tiebreaker against the Celtics.

In that case, the finals are likely to become the Cavaliers VS Lakers slightly.

Gee.

James played against Kobe, 23VS24, this is probably the scene that fans all over the world want to see most.

on the field.

Li Lai and Mike Brown hugged each other.

Don't underestimate this big bald head. Although he has been criticized throughout his career, he has been accused by everyone of having poor adaptability on the court and not being good at using role players.

But he abruptly relied on his unique understanding of defense to become the best coach of the year, and built the Cavaliers into one of the best defensive teams in the league.

"If I remember correctly, Mike Brown was born as a Spurs assistant coach, and Popovich is using a defensive system for the team that Mike Brown built for him.

The future elementary school Golden State Warriors dared to try the death five small lineup, also because of the defensive system established by Mike Brown.

Otherwise, with Fucking Green's small body, he really wants to guard all the inside players in the league by himself? "

Li Lai originally wanted to exchange pleasantries with Mike Brown, but he didn't expect the other party to keep a straight face the whole time, as if someone owed him [-] to [-] yuan.

Li Lai, who didn't know the reason, naturally didn't lick his face and approached, and also kept a straight face the whole time.

Mike Brown glanced sideways at Li Lai secretly, and felt very upset after finding out that Li Lai was so arrogant.

"Teacher, don't worry, the Bucks will take revenge on you, and I will avenge you tonight!"

Game start.

The Cavaliers' starting lineup: point guard Delonti West, shooting guard Daniel Gibson, small forward James, power forward Anderson Varejao and center Z.

"The Cavaliers are playing a two-tower lineup."

Li Lai pondered slightly and said.

There are many teams that like to play the twin-tower lineup these days, because it can greatly improve the inside frame protection rate and rebound protection rate, and it can also occupy a great advantage in the second offensive competition.

Of course, the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the inside line is too crowded, which will weaken the team's inside breakthrough success rate.

Li took a look at the young emperor James on the court, and then smiled.

It is definitely not a good thing to equip James with a two-tower lineup, or a two-tower lineup with no projection at all!
James, who has not partnered with centers like Dragon King Bosh, God of Love, and Davis with thick eyebrows, naturally does not understand how much his team needs an insider who is good at shooting.

Bucks regular lineup: point guard Westbrook, shooting guard Maurice Williams, small forward Marshall, power forward Villanueva and center Yi Jianlian.

Seeing that Li Lai still came up with this lineup, Barkley shook his head again and again.

"The inside line of the Bucks will be overwhelmed by the 221cm big Z and the 211cm Varejao!"

Midline jump ball.

Big Z jumped off the first wave of possession without any surprise.

Yi Jianlian clearly felt the pressure brought by Big Z.

In the past, he seldom defended center players. This season, he faced a big Z with such a height and frame at the beginning of the regular season, and he was likely to be blown up.

But thinking of Li Lai's long conversation with him that night, Yi Jianlian gritted his teeth fiercely.

Li Lai said to him that night: "Playing center, this is your only hope to surpass Dayao!"

James holds the ball outside.

Big Z came up to play the pick-and-roll, and at the same time Varejao came to the bottom line near the paint, ready to respond at any time.

This is the most classic style of twin tower tactics.

In order to reduce the congestion of the two tall insiders in the penalty area, one insider proposed to play an outside pick-and-roll, and one insider was ready to respond at any time.

If the ball handler breaks through the free throw line through the pick-and-roll, it depends on whether the opponent chooses to double-team at this time.

If there is no double-teaming, the ball-handler will attack by himself.

Double-teaming, then the area where Varejao is located has a great deterrent effect on the basket.

"This is the most important tactic for the Cavaliers to reach the playoffs last season and fight the Celtics to tiebreaker."

Barkley shook his head again and again.

This offensive tactic is not profound, and it even seems a bit low-level in the offensive arrangement of the head coach.

But the Cavaliers just played well!
The reason is that James' overall view is really excellent.

Even if there are no profound follow-up changes to this tactic, relying on James' basketball IQ has become the most advantageous weapon for the Cavaliers on the offensive end.

"Teaming!"

Li Lai shouted at the court.

　Thank you for the reward from my brother who has passed me by with this world.Thank you guys for your votes.It will be updated steadily tomorrow, at 6:17 and [-]:[-].Then the recommendation will start immediately, I hope brothers can vote for it, thank you.Love you guys.
