Chapter 103 Preliminary Thoughts
The chief assistant coach, Saunders, was spitting all over the place, and he spoke quickly to the players about the whimsy he had just come up with.

Since Cheeks discovered that Iguodala and Channing have a natural tacit cooperation on the defensive end in the first quarter, Cheeks has arranged a task for Sanders to design defensive tactics as much as possible so that these two defensive pioneers Sparks come out.

In addition to being the big inside coach of the team, Sanders is also responsible for the design and arrangement of defensive tactics. He has been in Philadelphia for decades. Sanders once participated in the defensive tactical design of the team in the Iverson era in 01. , used Iverson to play shooting guard, but used the taller Eric Snow as point guard. Snow really lived up to expectations and completed the task of helping Iverson defend. Now, Sanders Once again, he showed his keen sense of defense.

"In the second half, Iguodala and Channing, both of whom are strikers, must participate in the defensive end, but they can freely move and switch between positions 2 and 4. You decide which position to defend according to the situation on the field of view. "

This is the first change. Although Iguodala enjoyed the pleasure of attacking and abused food wholeheartedly in the first half, the coaching staff understands that the team can't go far with only Iguodala's offense. Iverson, who couldn't do it, also carried the team's offensive banner alone, leaving behind a great record that broke the undefeated myth of the Zijin Lakers, but he failed to win the championship after all. This is Iverson at his peak. With the attack power of the small AI Iguodala, it is not enough to lead the team to go further. Therefore, since the offense cannot blast the opponent, it is better to be distracted and defend.

Moreover, there is a preliminary prototype of positionless basketball here. Channing and Iguodala have been troubled by their positions. Both of them can play small forwards, and their best positions are also small forwards. Chen Ning played as a substitute, but found that he was a bit reckless. Now the two are simply forming a double striker line. It doesn't matter who plays 3 and who plays 4, or who plays 3 and who plays 2. The situation on the field of view and the opponent can be adjusted freely, and more importantly, Both Channing and Iguodala have very good defense switching and defense speed. When encountering a pick-and-roll, unlimited defenses may have a miraculous effect.

"Second point, I ask Channing and Iguodala to further increase their offensiveness on the defensive end, actively increase their strength, bite the enemy, consume the opponent's physical strength, and even look for opportunities to seek the possibility of stealing counterattacks. "

This is the second point of Sanders' tactics, using Channing and Iguodala's super personal defensive pressure to pass a short-term super-intensive defense to force the opponent to make mistakes.

Channing nodded silently. He suddenly discovered that this unsmiling assistant coach Sanders actually had a lot of money in his stomach. For the players of the 76ers, these defensive ideas are very novel, but for Channing, this Isn't it a popular defensive tactic before rebirth?

The super dominance of the five-star Warriors, especially Curry's ultra-long three-pointer ability after the pick-and-roll, has made unlimited defenses the mainstream. Every team must hoard a group of strikers with both flexibility and height to deal with the Warriors. Unlimited pick-and-roll tactics;
As for the high-intensity local double-teaming, this Channing is more familiar with. Isn't this the magic weapon for the Heat's Big Three?Back then, the Heat were weak on the inside, and the centers of other teams would have to eat dumplings when they met the Heat, but the Heat still fought their way out of the Spurs, Celtics, Mavericks, Thunder and other powerful players to the championship. The ring relies on the two super fighters James and Wade, and the partial double-teaming of these two people at no cost to their physical strength and fast break and counterattack.

It can be said that positionless basketball, unlimited defensive changes, and partial double-teaming are all tactics that have been verified by super teams in later generations, and this Sanders can have such forward thinking. I used to think that this assistant coach was a little watery, and it was really a slap in the face.

In the coaching staff, there are crouching dragons like Cheeks who are knowledgeable and capable, as well as smart youngsters like Sanders, plus generals like himself and Iguodala, Channing even has an illusion that Philadelphia should ZTE?

The second half officially started, and Iguodala and Channing looked at each other. They both understood that it was time to test their defensive tacit understanding.

The Hornets took the lead in attacking, and Chris Paul pushed forward, but unexpectedly discovered that the defender had changed, not Andre Miller, but Iguodala.

"What kind of tactical arrangement is this? Let Iguodala defend Paul as soon as he comes up. Is this the intention of the 76ers coaching staff?"

Reggie Miller was puzzled, and Paul was also unclear about the situation.

Although I don't know what the purpose of Philadelphia's arrangement is, Paul is very cautious. He is going to do a good job of connecting the teams first. What's more, Iguodala is notoriously good at defense, and it is not a wise choice to fight him.

Patting his head to call for a pick-and-roll, his old partner David West raised it again, and the Hornets' classic pick-and-roll tactics started.

Reggie Evans still wanted to stay where he was, but Channing took a step forward and followed David West.

Channing shook Reggie Evans with one hand behind his back, saying that you don't need to worry about David West. I will take over this guy for the time being. You can go to the weak side to help Peja.

Reggie Evans hesitated for a while, only to see the head coach Cheeks yelling in his ear:
"Don't hesitate, listen to Channing and Iguodala's arrangement!"

Evans immediately remembered the tactical design of the coaching staff in the locker room. The defensive matchups on the field were all under the direction of Channing and Iguodala. It's tight, so I went to follow Peja in the past.

Tyson Chandler pulled Dalembert out of the penalty area, and Evans' departure immediately left the paint area empty. David West was keenly aware of this, so he was about to block Iguodala. In an instant, West pulled away, turned his head and went to the basket.

"Fake pick and roll!"

Channing is very familiar with the changes in pick-and-roll tactics. West borrowed the illusion of Paul as a cover, and suddenly ran back to the basket.

Paul deserves to be a passing master. He has partnered with David West for a long time, and they have a perfect understanding. When David West makes a move, Paul immediately understands it, and he goes straight to the basket with a lob.

"Oops!"

Iguodala and Channing have both waved their long arms, and Paul was able to deliver the ball accurately between the two.

"The interception failed! There is still a lack of tacit understanding!"

After all, it was the first time he cooperated with Iguodala like this. Channing's stealing route overlapped with Iguodala's. .
