You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 839 The Right Way (460)

Wei Xia hates the sky high throwing throws to make Joel Embiid creepy.

Who can say that throw is not entertaining?Who can say with their own eyes that Wei Shamin Embiid's height is higher than nothing, and when he scored like a bag, he didn't get goosebumps all over the place?

But from the perspective of the parties involved, what does it feel like?
It is by no means as magnificent as the audience's perspective. The fans find it exciting, but Embiid only thinks it is disgusting. His defense was raped by Wei Xia.

"This is Steve Nash's secret, do you like it?"

Nash never taught Vershasa flower throwing.

The moment just now was completely improvised by Wei Xia.

That's how creativity comes about.

What he didn't have before, after Maravich's ears and eyes, it has been more than [-] games. The pistol inspired him and gave him a new understanding of basketball games.

It took him two years to imitate the pistol, get inspiration from the pistol competition, and then apply those inspirations to the competition.

If Wei Xia's talent comes from the gifts of legendary superstars, then his achievements today are inseparable from his diligence and learning ability.

The 76ers did not give Embiid an easy chance to catch the ball.

Cousins' defense is not that strong, he just has an obvious physical advantage, as long as he doesn't want to, it is difficult for Embiid to get the ball in the low post.

Embiid, who can't get the ball in the low post, needs to go to the high post.

But in a high position, the passing route was affected by Wechat, Faried, and Robertson.

Especially Wei Xia and Robertson.

Robertson's defensive awareness is not that good, but Wei Xia can defend himself, and he can also direct Robertson to defend.

Robertson has a stupid mouth and a simple mind. Under Wei Xia's guidance, he can fully do his part in various defenses.

The Celtics' offense was cornered and left to Isaiah Thomas to find opportunities.

Thomas used his teammates' double pick-and-roll to get a shooting opportunity, shot directly and made a hit.

4 is better than 7
Rondo broke through and scored.

Wei Xia held the ball on the right wing, started with his right foot, dribbled the ball with his left hand and changed direction behind his back, shaking the serious and hardworking Claude behind him.

Wei Xia grabbed the ball with one hand and was about to dunk, attracting Lai Embiid's defense. When he jumped into the air, he passed it directly to Cousins ​​​​under the basket.

Cousins ​​waited for a time lag, and when Embiid landed, he went violent again and directly buckled 2+1.

"We can totally see that several key players of the 76ers are targeting Joel Embiid."

"But once you know what happened, you can't have any sympathy for the young man."

"2 points, 0 rebounds and 2 fouls, only 3 minutes have passed, Lion Slayer, I don't even think you can stay on the court for 20 minutes." Wei Xia smiled lightly.

"Enough!" Embiid yelled. "It's legal to kill lions in Africa!"

"Aren't 13 billion Chinese people treated by a group of ignorant people as monsters who like to eat dog meat under the same circumstances?" Wei Xia asked sarcastically, "Why didn't anyone tell them that dog meat shops are legal?"

Embiid exclaimed dissatisfied: "It's none of my business!"

"In the same way, what you did to the lion at such a young age is none of my business." Weisha watched another Celtics center, Sullinger, prepare to play, and knew that Embiid would go down. "But your strength can't even handle DeMarcus. I really doubt the authenticity of you once killing a lion."

Cousins ​​followed up to make up for the damage: "Need to say? He must have killed the orange cat at home as a lion."

How much anger and injustice Embiid had had to stop, he was replaced.

The presence of Sullinger means that the Celtics have revealed all the main players who made it to the playoffs last season.

Although the Celtics returned to the playoffs in only one year, this must consider the background of the Eastern Conference's weak competitiveness.

In fact, the Celtics are still rebuilding.

They just accidentally made the playoffs.

Moreover, it is foreseeable that this season will also enter the playoffs.

Even so, their rebuilding is not over.They let the young people grow up in the key competitions for the playoffs, let them exercise in blood and fire, instead of letting go of fighting regardless of the results.Moreover, the young people in the formation can be thrown out for superstars at any time just like in 2007.

In the future, when the Celtics can get a superstar, what they have is not a lot of stragglers, but a group of role players who can immediately serve as the fourth, fifth, and sixth men of a strong team.

Set up the role players and wait for the superstar to come; instead of signing the superstar first, and then finding a suitable substitute around him.

The idea is correct and ideal.It's like preparing a bunch of good adobe houses, waiting for the demolition plan, and then changing the three adobe houses for a luxury house and adding a sum of money, and then reaching the pinnacle of life.If this was playing NBA2K, it would be perfect.So in the 2015 training camp, as a playoff team, the coaching staff of the Celtics publicly stated that the rotation team is not fixed, it all depends on the status of each individual, just come and grab it.

Doing so will greatly increase the competition within the team.

But, there are also side effects.

The biggest side effect is to let the players enter a sense of anxiety and insecurity all the time.

Because no one can know where their future lies.Some of them are building a city wall of flesh and blood with their own bodies, while others are growing into qualified bargaining chips, and they are preparing to exchange some people in the future to step on the Great Wall to complete the team's reconstruction.

It's cruel to say this, but the Celtics may be destined to be role players rather than protagonists.

But they are still aggressively striving to win, and this amazing cohesion comes from the team culture and the urging of the coaching staff.

From them, Wei Xia saw certain qualities that were being revived.

He still doesn't like the contemporary Celtics, but it can be said that the Celtics of this era have not followed the old path of the 90s and early 00s.

Thomas called a pick-and-roll, and dared to stand still.

He trusts his teammates to give him the best cover.

With the blessing of trust, his shots were resolute and decisive, the basketball flew high and fell into the bag hollowly.

Hayward makes an air cut and Rondo lobs.

Next, Hayward responded to the Celtics' offense with a counter-basket.

Celtics coach Stevens greeted Hayward with a smile.

Hayward played under Stevens in college, and now they are both in the NBA.

Since Embiid left the field, the Celtics have shown their original colors.

Passionate, fast offense and defense.

Rebound, five people grab it together.

Fast break, five people play together.

Falling into positional warfare, the other four created opportunities for Thomas at all costs.

The Celtics generally only have three types of positional warfare. Thomas completes it himself, Thomas passes the ball to the shooter, and Thomas passes the ball to his teammates in the paint.

There is no second ball-holding point, no autonomous attack point, and no low-post attack point.

Last season, they used such a style of play to rush into the playoffs after acquiring Thomas on the trade deadline.

As long as Thomas is given space, and his size is matched with the corresponding speed, it will be difficult for the 76ers to defend.

With Thomas picking up speed, the 76ers had no one to defend against.

Under the same conditions, the same goes for other teams.

Therefore, the Celtics' pick-and-roll for Thomas is very particular.According to legend, in order for Thomas to get the best pick-and-roll quality, Stevens required that at least two of Thomas's other four players be on the floor at all times to be ready for the pick-and-roll.

The position, direction, angle, and frequency of double pick-and-rolls are all specially designed.

The tactical status that a core with the ball can get is nothing better than this.

The Celtics tie their position to Thomas, and the defensive end also needs to mobilize the resources of the whole team to make up for the natural defects brought about by Thomas' size.

Wei Xia called the pick-and-roll to find Thomas to play a misplaced position. Unexpectedly, the rest of the Celtics were particularly active in switching defenses.

The matchup between Wei Xia and Thomas is something they are determined to avoid, and for this reason they would rather let Hayward get an open seat.

They were so crazy that Wei Xia could only pass the ball.

However, Hayward's open three-pointers were so crooked that people wondered if he missed them on purpose to repay Stevens' cultivation.

Too crooked, not at all his usual level.

The Celtics' counterattack was fouled by the 76ers.

Minutes passed, and the Celtics were emotionally unaffected after Embiid went off the court, biting the 76ers with the offense and defense that helped them return to the playoffs last season.

In this way, regardless of offense and defense, five people participate in the game together, which consumes a lot of energy.

Sure enough, only a few minutes later, the Celtics started the rotation.

In this style of play, physical strength must be kept at its best, so as not to lose strength.

They got water-lost talents Evan Turner, Olynyk, Taylor Zeller, Jonas Jerebko.

Except for Thomas, all other positions were replaced.

The 76ers also adjusted the inside line, and Wei Xia wanted to dampen the morale of the Celtics, so he deliberately ordered it to go on.

The defense of the entire round is directed by him.

Thomas rushed to the basket and couldn't make a strong attack. Hollins' help defense forced him to move the ball widely.

Wei Xia expected his passing route, ambushed in advance, rushed out on time to steal the ball-successful!
Thomas' size prevented him from seeing Wecha and ambush near the passing line, and the possession of the ball was lost.

Wei Xia took the lead in the counterattack, ignoring the chase and defense and scoring a dunk.
