NBA: Duncan feels uneasy coaching Warriors

Chapter 39 Randolph Going Crazy Again?
Lionel Hollins was stunned.

"Is that Jefferson's own judgment?"

Lionel Hollins murmured.

He didn't dare to accept it, Su Chen guessed his tactics.

Everyone is a professional coach, and the opponent's prejudged strategy during the timeout period is actually a bit of a dish.

If even a specific tactic is judged, how good is he?
It is not too much to say that adults beat children.

Lionel Hollins did not choose to call a timeout. At this time, he chose to call a timeout, which is to admit that his skills are not as good as others.

How could he admit it!

Especially if the opponent is a rookie coach, it would be embarrassing in the industry if he was stopped by a rookie coach in a row.

Lionel Hollins chewed gum on the sidelines, consoling himself that it was just a flash of inspiration for Jefferson.

Of course, Lionel Hollins didn't do nothing.

He gestured for a change of tactics.

Every coach in the league has some unique gestures agreed with the players, so that they can change tactics on the spot without calling a timeout without being afraid of being known by the opposing coach.

For example, Van Gundy's gestures, he is used to waving his palms in front of him. This gesture is a tactical signal representing "double bottom line cover".

Of course, too simple movements will be cracked, so Van Gundy will change hand signals from time to time.

The representative who likes to use complex gestures is Schneider, and each of his gestures looks like a silky little combo.

As for the gestures used by Lionel Hollins, Su Chen felt that there was nothing to decipher.

What's more, some tactical gestures are simply fake. If you crack them, you will be clever and you will be mistaken by cleverness.

He can look directly at the opponent's tactical board. Gestures like solving puzzles are meaningless.

"Just a little tired."

Su Chen rubbed between his brows, and canceled the mark on Lionel Hollins' tactical board.

[Hawkeye] consumes too much mental power. If you use [Hawkeye] frequently in a game, it will be too much.

"Try to stay in the critical pause and then use Hawkeye."

Su Chen felt that Hawkeye should not be used indiscriminately.

If you use [Hawkeye] excessively, you will lose your mental strength, not to mention that the job of an NBA head coach itself is a job that consumes a lot of energy.

There are so many things a coach has to think about on the field.

Tactical layout, use of personnel, communication with referees to exert pressure, encourage or make players sober, and even handle Gongdou well
These all require good mental strength to support.

Therefore, [Eagle Eye], a skill that consumes a lot of energy, can only be used in very critical rounds.

Grizzlies offensive round.

The Grizzlies lineup all stretched to one side, and Randolph asked for the ball in the low post.

Obviously, it is a low post tactics of Randolph.

Lionel Hollins, as a team with weak offense and strong defense, actually does not have diversified offensive methods.

Most of the offense was initiated by Conley, but Conley's offensive threat is not strong, it can only be said to be above average.

In the playoffs, on a stage as strong as the Western Conference Finals, it doesn't mean that an above-average offense can be used.

Why do you always say that the playoffs will test the quality of stars.

With such a defensive strength, if you are not good enough, you can't play a lot of singles with the ball, and you don't have the ability to make hard moves.

The Grizzlies' offense has gone three straight rounds.

It's useless to call a timeout to arrange offensive tactics. Lionel Hollins wants to break the scoring shortage through hard solutions at this time.

If it is necessary to say who the Grizzlies have the ability to solve the offensive end, then Randolph is the closest to such a character in the Grizzlies.

Instead of finding a matchup with Draymond Green, Randolph faced Bogut instead.

But Randolph is not cowardly at all. He didn't even go out to match up with Draymond Green. He didn't care who was guarding him.

He himself is such a generous character.

Hei Ba faced Duncan that year, and he also used inch after inch of hand-to-hand combat, scoring one after another from Duncan's defense.

Randolph is physically strong, even in the face of the tall and strong Bogut, he actively seeks physical confrontation.

Low post offense is a required course for insiders in this era.

Compared with Nowitzki's elegance and Al Jefferson's floor skills, Duncan has been unpretentious for ten years.

Randolph's low post looks purely like a fight.

It hit Bogut again and again, then found the gap, turned around and made a layup.

beep!
At the same time, when Bogut found that he could not defend the ball, he tried hard to block the ball, but was caught by the referee.

Randolph roared like a black bear.

Get to the free throw line.

Randolph hit the free throw firmly.

Grizzlies 46:53 Warriors.

Randolph's tenacity brought the point difference between the two sides back to the familiar seven points.

"I met Duncan going crazy in the game, and this black bear looks like he is going to go crazy again."

Su Chen watched from the sidelines and couldn't help frowning.
