Chapter 74 Pick and Roll
It sounds cruel, but it’s true. Just like Battelle and Wang Zhizhi couldn’t gain a foothold in the NBA, and Xiao Ding had to do his best in the summer league. Playing basketball is not as simple as in novels or games. Effort is very important, but A lot of things cannot be done with hard work. Everyone has different talents. Putting aside the system’s problems, Chan Ning is just an ordinary CBA player. His talent is not enough to make a name for himself in the NBA. Regardless of the help of the system , I'm afraid it's whimsical to want to practice super giant-like shooting and ball handling.

So before the system's next card draw, Channing can only rely on himself to improve. For him, choice is more important than hard work.

After much deliberation, Channing made a decision.

……

The temperature in Philadelphia in November has dropped to about 11 degrees, which is quite cold in winter, but the 10ers training hall is still in full swing.

Reed and Evans partnered against the combination of Miller and Dalembert. The other players gathered together and carefully observed the offensive and defensive coordination of the four.

Pick-and-roll tactics, that's the skill Channing chose to learn.

Coach Cheeks was once again amazed by Channing's golf intelligence. He gave Channing absolute freedom in learning skills, just to see how this rookie will choose his own development path. If Channing chooses Korver Judging from Channing's three-pointer, or Lu Wei's ball control, it will take at least one or two seasons of practice before it can be used normally, but the pick-and-roll is different.

The pick-and-roll is English "pick and roll", which was translated by Zhang Weiping Zhang. The most basic pick-and-roll must have two people involved, one player who controls the ball, and the other player acts as a screen wall, and the wall player stays put , use the chest to resist the impact of the shoulder position of the defender who is marking the dribbler, and the player with the ball looks for opportunities to complete the shot or breakthrough.

There are many changes in pick-and-roll tactics. If the defender chooses to go around behind the screener, the ball holder can make a jump shot. If the defender is blocked, the ball holder can make a breakthrough. Clip, and the guy with the screen gets the open shot.

All in all, if a player wants to score, he must either play alone with the ball like Kobe, or grab a rebound like Howard for a second attack, or run out of the open to catch the ball like Korver and then shoot a three-pointer. To cooperate with the whole team is to play tactics.

The so-called tactics are to use basic actions such as running, passing, and screens to create open spaces or simple scoring opportunities through the efforts of the whole team. The pick-and-roll is the basic tactic in basketball offense. , Provide opportunities for passers or screeners to dislocate offenses, and in the case of dislocation offenses, the shooting percentage and offensive efficiency are often very high.

For Channing, who lacks ball-handling ability and shooting ability, the best way for him to participate in offensive tactics is to serve as a screen for his teammates in the pick-and-roll. First, he can use the pick-and-roll to join the offense, and then he can learn slowly Observe the defense and the running positions of teammates, and continuously improve the ability to handle the ball during the game. This development path is much better than simply running to catch and shoot.

As expected, he was a kid with a golf quotient. Cheeks was very excited about Channing's proposal to learn pick-and-roll tactics. He called all the players together to learn the first step of pick-and-roll tactics. Cheeks asked Channing to learn how to do it by observing his teammates first. Pick and roll, Miller Dalembert and Reed Evans are demonstrating to Channing.

As a basketball fan, Channing is no stranger to the pick-and-roll.The pick-and-roll tactic seems very simple and practical, but it is also very difficult to use it well. It requires the cooperation of a guard with a very high IQ and a big man. For example, the classic pick-and-roll tactics of Nash and Stoudemire of the Phoenix Suns. Their pick-and-roll tactics, Both Stoudemire and Nash can be the final finishers; Kobe and Kwame Brown of the Lakers also often play pick-and-rolls, but most of the time they rely on Kobe's superhuman ability to score forcibly. Even if you get a chance, you can't grasp it.

There are still many teams in the league that are good at pick-and-roll tactics. Malone and Stockton of the Jazz have performed the pick-and-roll tactics to the extreme. The cooperation of Deron and Boozer has the shadow of the two old Jazz; And Chandler is also good, but Chandler's offensive method is single, basically ending the battle with a slam dunk.

In Channing's previous life, the Golden State Warriors played new tricks with pick-and-roll tactics. Stephen Curry and Draymond Green initiated pick-and-rolls near the three-point line. Double-teaming, and Green's coping ability allows him to handle the four-on-three situation after the pick-and-roll very well. If the opponent does not double-team, Curry will punish the opponent with his flexible feet and precise shooting.

In the 76ers team, the old Miller and Lu Wei are both pick-and-roll offensive masters. Lu Wei is good at accelerating breakthroughs after using the pick-and-roll, while the old Miller is better at reading the game, whether it is mid-range shots, high-hanging baskets, or points to the outside. Ball, Miller is doing very well.

However, the 76ers lack big men suitable for pick-and-roll tactics. Reggie Evans and Dalembert are currently performing pick-and-roll coordination on the field. Dalembert lacks mid-range shooting ability and his footsteps are slow. When he goes down to the bottom of the basket, the opponent's defense is already in place.

Without a suitable big man, the opponent can freely double-team the guard, thus weakening the power of the pick-and-roll tactic by 7%. This is also the reason why the 76ers didn't play the pick-and-roll very much before. By.

Therefore, the most important thing about tactics and tactics is not how advanced the tactics are, but the players who execute these tactics.Phil Jackson's triangle offense can't be played without Jordan and Kobe, but Malone and Stockton can maximize the most basic pick-and-roll tactics, which is the key point.

The four players played for more than half an hour. The two big men didn't like to play the pick-and-roll.

"Following these two insiders, what can I learn?" Head coach Cheeks sullenly stopped the drill and severely punished Evans and Dalembert for ten laps. His attitude towards the two insiders was very serious. dissatisfied.

In fact, there are indeed many inside players who don't like pick-and-rolls, and even have serious resistance. In pick-and-rolls, big men have to run back and forth, completely relying on their chests to resist the opponent's back and forth pushing and shoving. It is easy to be called a screen foul when you are big, and you have suffered a lot of elbows and slaps, but the guards are more outstanding. This makes the inside players feel that they are sacrificing themselves to achieve others, which is too bad, so few people are willing to do it.
