This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 47 Brandon Roy Baring His Fangs
(Favorites plus more chapters)

In the next game, the Huskies of the University of Washington, playing at home, were obviously more prepared than the visiting George Mason Patriots.

Brandon Roy has an absolute advantage in height, weight, and technology in the matchup with Lamar Butler. This is a player with mature skills and already has the NBA's immediate combat power, and Lamar Butler ... Butler, at heart, is nothing more than a small pitcher.

A pull-up mid-range shot and a jump layup.

Brandon Roy seemed to be at ease in front of Lamar Butler.

This is a set of dislocations that are naturally paired.

As for the Patriots, after Zhou Lin hit the first three-pointer, he didn't get a second chance. Neither Jay Lewis' inside attack nor Lamar Butler's difficult three-pointer caught him. The ball goes into the basket.

"Run, run, pass the ball, hurry up, hurry up!"

Jim is a very passionate coach, if not restricted, I am afraid he wants to run wild on the sidelines like the players.

He gestured a six to Tony Skin.

Tony knew it was time to change his offensive tactics.

Unlike in high school, it is impossible for Zhou Lin to have so many possessions now.

The opponent Zhou Lin faced was much stronger and smarter than his opponent in high school.

That's the case with Washington's players.

Although he is not tall and his weight is not particularly large, he always likes to give Zhou Lin some physical contact. However, after a summer vacation with Jay Lewis, Zhou Lin is quite used to this kind of defense.

According to Coach Jim's request, the Patriots must fill in the details of each round.

As for Zhou Lin, who joined the Patriots as a high school star player, Coach Jim himself has great expectations for Zhou Lin.

He has eight or nine tactics in his hand, but among them, there are three sets with Zhou Lin as the core, and the No. [-] tactic is also one of Zhou Lin's leading tactical systems.

The ball was transferred to Zhou Lin. As the tallest player on the court, Zhou Lin quickly asked to stand in a high position, 2-2-1.

Zhou Lin near the free throw line made a three-threat fake shot. Jamal Williams, who was defending on the opposite side, subconsciously rushed forward, including Joan Brockman. He was also attracted by Zhou Lin's shot and wanted to come up to assist Defend.

Zhou Lin was the tallest one on the field. If he really shot the ball directly, Jamal Williams, who was three inches shorter than him, would not be able to defend him no matter what.

And at this moment, the little Tony, with the help of Jay Lewis' block, got rid of Justin Dantemon. At this moment, Tony was found.

And Joan Brockman knew he had been fooled, and turned around to stop Tony, but the latter quickly scored with a clever high board.

This tactic is one of the three sets of tactics that Coach Jim needs Zhou Lin to participate in considering Zhou Lin's shooting and passing ability.

The big man goes up to hold the ball, shoots or breaks through to create threats, and the small man cuts back to the basket, which is equivalent to completing the attack behind the opponent's inside player's ass.

Princeton system!

Prevalent on many teams with average talent.

This system does not require the players to have a strong singles ability. It only needs that everyone has a certain shooting ability and quick passing. The big players go out and make effective shots to attract the attention of the opposing players. And the smaller players go through the back door and enter the weaker hinterland.

The two skills used here are shooting and passing support, but Zhou Lin also has such abilities.

Hidden deep in Zhou Lin's mind, the Kings in 98-99, assistant coach Pete Carell introduced Princeton's system to the NBA Kings.

At that time, the Kings used this system. Under the leadership of Adelman, they played gorgeous offensive coordination. At that time, the Kings had two big men who could pass the ball the most. Chris Webber and Diva Ci, as well as Stojakovic, and the white devil Bibby, everyone is willing to share the ball.

They performed this tactic to the extreme, and in 2002, they played seven games in the Western Conference Finals with the powerful Lakers.

Of course, there are bad cases.

A few years later, that is, in 2007, Adelman will go to the Rockets as the head coach, and at the same time bring the Princeton system, but unfortunately Yao Ming is not Divac, his power is not above the free throw line and support, Yao Ming has never been a Pass creative player despite his high IQ.

His threat is in the inside fight of the positional battle, and Yao Ming's speed and passing skills under Princeton are far from reaching, and this tactic was quickly given up by Adelman.

Letting Yao Ming do Divac's job is really a waste of talent.

The Patriots' Princeton system is an attempt for the new season.

This is a style of play that Zhou Lin has never tried before, but Zhou Lin was quickly persuaded by Coach Jim.

Zhou Lin is no longer a ball-holding point, nor an end point, but a hub.

That is, 'tool man'.

For Zhou Lin, who played star football for a year in high school, he also needs to adapt.

"Comfortable pass, Zhou!"

Tony came up and high-fived Zhou Lin.

This is a tactic that the Patriots have never played before, because neither the 270-pound Jay Lewis nor another inside player, Will Thomas, has a stable long-range shot, and they can't do support work. Some hand-to-hand transition balls.

"You did a good job, too."

Zhou Lin nodded.

The Huskies attacked, and Brandon Roy faced Lamar Butler, and changed his attack again, bending over and getting the ball in the low post.

There was at least 40+ pounds of weight and a gap of about 4 inches between the two.

Will Thomas passively went up to help defend, but at this moment, Brandon Roy saw Joan Brockman's position.

As soon as he turned around, he stuffed the ball under Will Thomas' armpit to Joan Brockman, who dunked directly.

8 is better than 5!

Lamar Butler's size, even if he plays the 1st position, his body looks thin. His strength lies in shooting, and when facing ordinary players on the defensive end, as long as his teammates can occasionally help, there will be no major problems.

But now, facing him is Brandon Roy, a shooting guard who is extremely mature both physically and technically, and is at his peak!

If Zhou Lin were the coach, it would be better to let Blair play instead of being blown up in the matchup.

After all, being covered by Brandon Roy, Lamar Butler's shooting can't play any role.

And Blair, a 225-foot-[-], [-]-pound swingman with confrontation and speed, should be much more effective against Roy.

But Lamar Barrett, after all, was the team's leading scorer last season and has been with Coach Jim for the fourth year, has already gained the trust of Coach Jim. The rookie Blair naturally cannot be compared with him.

"Tighten the defense in and try to get Brandon to shoot from the outside."

Tony Skindo as the brains on the pitch.
