Basketball: Beginning with a double-kill high school James

Chapter 53 Sloan's Basketball Philosophy

Kirilenko knew his strength, and seeing Randolph let him go, he dribbled the ball a step, came to a place not far from the basket and chose a drop shot, the ball scored, and the AK47 had no shortcomings except for its mediocre shooting. Li Qi felt that Simmons' model was only reliable, after all, Xidi was reduced to a strange man who made layups.

Sloan didn't applaud the team's goal, but raised his chin on the sidelines. He wanted to see if Li Qi could still break through Harprin and Kirilenko's defense in the second round.

This time Li Qi switched to his right hand instead of his left. Harprin was still close to Li Qi, but this time it was not as tight as the first time.

The Blazers point guard stepped forward, lifted the ball, and Harprin pounced on him immediately, but Li Qiqi quickly switched the ball to the other hand and snapped past Harprin's left.Kirilenko defended again, and Li Qi ignored the Russian and directly lobbed the ball to Randolph inside. The latter didn't take off and easily sent the ball into the basket.Ostertag is entangled by Milicic and cannot defend at all. As the successor of the mammoth Mark Eaton selected by Sloan, Ostertag really has nothing to compare with the former.

Sloan was born as an All-Star player. He clearly realized that the Blazers were not playing tactics at all. They relied entirely on Li Qi's personal ability to connect the team. He attracted the opponent's defensive attention and then passed the ball to the open.

It is impossible for the Jazz to play like that, even if it was the Jazz at their peak, they couldn't play like that. There is a singles king in the history of the Jazz, and that person's name is Adrian Dantley.The Jazz assistant coaching career in those years changed a lot of Sloan's basketball philosophy, so he later objected to the players' many singles.

Sloan didn't call a timeout. He still didn't believe that a guy like Li Qi could compete with the basketball philosophy he had insisted on for decades with his personal ability.

The Puerto Rican went straight up this time and tried to pass Li Qi by changing the direction in front of his body, but Li Qi completely followed him. Carlos Arroyo was embarrassed by his lateral movement.

He took the ball and took a step sideways. Sprewell stuck to him, blocking the way forward. Deshaun Stevenson looked at his teammates and chose to hand the ball to Kirilenko.

Seeing that the opponent let go of himself again, Kirilenko chose to dunk this time, but when he was dunking, he suddenly felt a cool wind coming from the back of his head, but the Russian still chose to use his right hand to give the ball to... well, he couldn't hit it at all, because the ball had been held down by a yellow arm.

The Trail Blazers players on the bench all cheered, the peg board hat on the back, this is too handsome.The basketball bounced off and fell into the hands of the Jazz player. The latter didn't make much adjustments when he got the ball, and shot directly from the outside. The ball went in after a swipe.

Arroyo scored his first three-pointer of the game.Sloan didn't spray him, because he was indeed open and unguarded just now.

Li Qi's block just now is equivalent to an indirect assist for Arroyo.He wasn't depressed, because as long as Kirilenko was defended, the game would be much easier. Except for layups, the opponent's shooting ability was zero, so there was no need to worry at all.

Halprin's defense went back to the first round, not giving Li Qi any space, and Li Qi made another shot fake.

Sloan was stunned on the sidelines, what the hell kind of play is this?Take the ball and throw it with a feint?This is basketball?What about cooperation?What about conduction?What about teammates?
It's a pity that Li Qi couldn't hear the question from the Jazz coach's soul. This kind of forced shooting is really uncommon in this era. Fortunately, the Blazers coach D'Antoni is a good man. He only cares about the result and doesn't care about the process.

It's no wonder that Sloan didn't spray Harperin, because no player in the league can play like this, it's too messy.When Harprin walked over, the iron-blooded coach also comforted the opponent. Sloan didn't want Li Qi's several offensive goals to affect Harprin's self-confidence. Apart from his frail body, this defensive champion really has no shortcomings.

Both Arroyo and Li Qi scored three-pointers, but Li Qi had more than him with 2 points, 1 assist, and 1 block. As a point guard, Arroyo currently only has three points and nothing else.

For the next attack, the Jazz finally played their classic tactic-the pick-and-roll.Kirilenko was called to the left elbow area. Leaning against the Russian, the Puerto Rican defender rushed inside, but Li Qi circled the screen very quickly and caught up with Arroyo almost without a pause, because Arroyo is not a defender who is good at speed at all. He mainly plays rhythm, which is a bit like a weakened version of Ginobili.

After being overtaken by Li Qi, Arroyo did not pass back to Kirilenko behind him. He understood that there was no difference between the AK47 outside the restricted area and the trash.

In the process of the collision, the two sides were knocked apart. Relying on this space, Arroyo adjusted his position in the air and threw the ball in a very uncomfortable posture, but Li Qi jumped up in front of him like a spring man. Instead of blocking the shot, he covered his eyes with both hands. Arroyo could only throw the ball out by feeling. , As a result, he was directly blocked by the Serb with a big hat. Sloan was so angry on the sidelines that he wanted to take off his clothes and go on the field to fight by himself.
