() The current Dallas Mavericks are not the Dallas Mavericks of the last two seasons. Although the main lineup does not seem to have changed, only an old Jason Kidd has been introduced, but compared with before, there is already A qualitative change.

Because in this summer, they changed the head coach. As soon as the playoffs ended last season, the Mavericks fired the general Avery Johnson. The Mavericks under the leadership of Avery Johnson. Capsize in the playoffs.

It's not that he's incapable, but that he lacks the experience a head coach should have. He's still young, especially last season, when he was so majestic in the regular season that he could kill anyone he saw. Even the San Antonio Spurs at the time couldn't Dare to say that he had the heart to win after the Mavericks, but in the first round of the playoffs, the Golden State Warriors came back with eight blacks. Since then, the general's position has not been firm.

The Mavericks were still not successful last season, so as soon as the playoffs were over, Mark Cuban no longer had any patience, and directly fired the young general Johnson, and then it happened that the Pacers had just sent Rick Carlisle to him because of their poor record. Fired, signed Rick Carlisle.

The same is the dismissed head coach, but the situation is different. Rick Carlisle's problem is mainly that the team's lineup is unstable. A team that is rebuilding, even a team without a core, can have a better record It's no wonder that the young general Johnson has a problem with his ability.

Rick Carlisle is a representative of the academic school. To talk about his coaching path, he has to start with Carlesimo. Carlesimo is an academic head coach. His father is the director of the sports department of the university. , He was an assistant coach of the school basketball team when he was in college, and then became the head coach of Seton Hall University, and served as an assistant coach to Mike Krzyzewski in the World Championships. assistant coach.

In [-], Carlesimo took over the head coaching position of the Portland Trail Blazers from Rick Adelman. At this time, he called Rick Carlisle into his own coaching staff. In the three years of the Tran Trail Blazers, Carlesimo achieved great success in the regular season, but he always fell short in the playoffs and was eventually fired by the team, exactly the same as the current general Johnson.

Then the two parted ways. Carlesimo went to the Golden State Warriors and took over the head coaching position from Rick Adelman again. And Rick Carlisle took over the Detroit Pistons.

In the regular season, Rick Carlisle performed very well, but in the playoffs, he also encountered the problem of inexperience. Although he won the best coach of the year, he was still fired. Larry Brown took his place. After the season, he led the Detroit Pistons to the championship.

The playoffs and the regular season are the watershed between superstars and star players. For the head coach, the regular season head coach and the playoffs head coach are also two different levels. After Rick Carlisle left the Detroit Pistons, he was pulled Libard was spotted, joined the Indiana Pacers, and became the head coach there.

In Indiana, Rick Carlisle's record is still very good. If it weren't for the incident at the Palace of Auburn Hills, it would be hard to say who won the Eastern Conference that year, but even if it was affected, Rick Carlisle still led the team into the playoffs Competition, but the record is not very good.

During the turbulent rebuilding process of the Pacers, Rick Carlisle was still able to lead the team steadily forward, only he did not enter the playoffs last season. In fact, it has nothing to do with his coaching ability, but the team's lineup and strength problem, he was fired as a scapegoat.

It is precisely because of this that the Mavericks signed Rick Carlisle. After becoming the head coach, Rick Carlisle did not formulate tactics, but talked with the team's main players one by one to understand their mental state And thinking, you must know that the players have already started their vacation at this time, and he needs to fly all over the country to find them. He even flew to Germany to have face-to-face communication with Dirk Nowitzki.

Technical characteristics can be understood through games and training videos, but psychological conditions cannot be understood through videos. It is only after having enough understanding of players that Rick Carlisle can design more reasonable tactics.

Mainly defensive tactics. He was originally a defensive-based coach. Under the leadership of the old Knicks, the Dallas Mavericks were originally one of the few offensive teams in the league. After the general Johnson came over, he was brought from the Spurs The defense is integrated into it, forming a unique style, but the problem is that he himself is not a professional coach. Most of his defense is conceptual, while Rick Carlisle is technical.

Because he knows the players very well, Rick Carlisle knows what the players want to do, so the tactics he designed are naturally very appropriate, and the team's offense is already relatively good, and there is another Jason Kidd, who can handle the ball like a battlefield commander The team's offense is well organized.

As soon as his defense and Jason Kidd's offense are over, the Mavericks have reached a new level at both ends of the offense and defense. This is the reason why the Mavericks have such a good record. The danger index of the team is greater than that of the San Antonio Spurs, but Stephen doesn't think so, and the result came to the game, which surprised Stephen.

The Mavericks sent center Eric Dampier, power forward Dirk Nowitzki, small forward Devin George, point guard Jason Kidd, point guard Jose Barea, this is a two-point guard lineup, Jose Barry Ya's technical characteristics are similar to Earl Watson's, but his offensive ability is better than Earl Watson's, and his organizational ability is inferior to Earl Watson's. However, with Jason Kidd, his organizational ability is not needed.

Due to Josh Howard's injury, Devon George was able to start. Compared with Josh Howard, his defensive ability is simply negligible, but Rick Carlisle used tactics to make Stephen feel that the Mavericks' defense has not declined compared to before. , but more rigorously.

Dirk Nowitzki was still the all-powerful German chariot. He came up and made consecutive shots on the top of Kurt Thomas.

Dirk Nowitzki is like this. Those who are taller than him are not as fast as him, those who are faster than him are not as strong as him, and those who are stronger than him are not as good at shooting as he is. Few in the league can match him. Among the top players, maybe only Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett and Pau Gasol are about the same, but none of the three of them have the shooting and shooting skills that spread all over the court like him.

After Stephen found that the attacking effect was not very good, he began to pass the ball more to Durant. Jason Kidd was defending Durant. There was a height gap of more than ten centimeters between the two, and Durant's shooting ability was not afraid. Face-to-face defense, as for Watson, did not take advantage of Barea.

The defenses of the two sides are similar, not that strong, but not bad. You can restrict your offense from being crazy, but it is not the kind that makes people suffocate. At the same time, the offense of both sides is also very good. The solutions are even more difficult.

Unless Stephen works hard, otherwise, the score gap cannot be widened. But the game has just started, and Stephen is really unwilling to start working hard now. He is currently in the first half, usually in a state of soy sauce, defending out of six Divide the force, attack with five points, and organize with seven points.

However, when Stephen turned his eyes and saw the tall figure sitting on the bench, Stephen felt relieved. It doesn't matter. He will talk about it after Yao Ming comes on the field. The cooperation between them is very good, and in the previous games, when Yao Ming played, it was usually when the Sonics started to take the lead.

"Centers are like hammers, forwards are like knives", Stephen suddenly thought of these two sentences that he didn't know where he saw, which meant that players in these two positions had different offensive methods. It was hard to stop, Yao Ming's offense became better and better as his body recovered better and better.

In the case of sufficient physical strength, Yao Ming's offense can be described as unsolvable. Basically, no one can guard against him one-on-one. Assist defense or double-teaming are effective, but don't forget that there is Stephen on the outside, and It is very effective for Yao Ming to defend the past by going around the front, but now with Stephen, various methods can also be used to break it.

With a good passer on the outside, a powerful helper around him, and a better backup, Yao Ming is basically unstoppable, and these Sonics basically have all of them.

Since Yao Ming's playing time has risen to 10 minutes, Carlesimo replaced Yao Ming on the court very early and replaced Kupard. In fact, there is also a solution, that is to keep Kupard on the court , replacing Kurt Thomas, this is a standard twin-tower lineup, but since no such experiment has been conducted, Carlesimo dare not adopt it rashly, and still use the conventional style of play.

Seeing Eric Dampier, Yao Ming smiled. If you switch to the Eastern Conference, it will not be so easy to meet the Mavericks, but now you can only meet the Mavericks three times a season, but don’t worry, you will meet in the playoffs. The chances of this increase greatly. Although Eric Dampier claimed to be the second center in the Western Conference, he has long recognized the situation and the gap between himself and Yao Ming. Now he sees Yao Ming again. Dampier While preparing for being abused in my heart, I raised my spirits and prepared to go into battle.

However, after Yao Ming received the ball, he didn't fight him at all. He swung him behind him three times and two times, and put the ball into the basket with one hand. It's too late.
