National Basketball | Tianshan five small, Zhu Xuhang hit a 3-point life
Li Yanzhe played 27 minutes and 44 seconds, helping Xinjiang win by 13 more points when he was on the court, and in the last 3 minutes and 25 seconds, Li Yanzhe was replaced, and Qiu Gui put on the five young who were entrusted with important tasks at many key moments this season: Jones, Sirzati, Qi Lin, Zhu Xuhang and Abudu (Yu Dehao played 4 seconds for Jones in the middle).
Shandong is Jiao Hailong + Gillenwater's "mini twin towers", this twin towers are not simple, they all have baskets, can open up space, and have the same offensive advantages as the Xinjiang five small lineups, but they do not have the defensive disadvantages of the Xinjiang five small teams.
As a result, from Li Yanzhe's 11-point lead when he was replaced (after Jones hit a free throw), to the end of the game, he only won by 4 points, and 2 of these 4 points came from Shandong's tactical foul at the last moment, so, to be exact, just over 3 points, the five-small lineup actually lost by 9 points!
Shandong has no cooperation, that is, to hand over the ball to Gillenwater, in fact, it should have been done a long time ago, Tao Hanlin and Gillenwater, the two strong men on the inside, are the only two points in the Shandong team with advantages, and the advantage lies in the projection, not in the basket, Tao Hanlin was sent off, can only rely on Gillenwater, Ding Wei did wake up a little late, but if Xinjiang can struggle in the face of the top of the list, the roots of the ears should be clearer.
In the face of Xinjiang's small lineup, specifically, in the face of Abudu, Gillenwater shot 4 of 5, two 3-pointers and two baskets, and one person scored 10 points in just about 3 minutes! In addition, Gao Shiyan, who had a triple-double early in the game, made free throws with an offensive rebound and hit both free throws.
Shandong's offense basically punished Xinjiang for not having a big man, Gillenwater's first 3-point shot was against Abudu's garden area, and the second 3-point shot came from the "Mini Twin Towers" to open up space, Shandong Wuwai was in a position, and Gao Shiyan broke through the basket to attract Abudu's defense, and then assisted Gillenwater to hit a 3-point.
Two layups, the first, also from a five-out position, were cleared under the basket, and Gillenwater carried Jones to the basket, ignoring the assistant Silzati, and then the ball was mischievously bounced a few times before falling into the mesh. The second time was a fast-break dunk.
Gillenwater missed a layup and missed a forced layup in the face of Abdu, but then, Gao Shiyan got to the front board and caused a free throw.
Five people on the court in Xinjiang stood under the basket and looked at each other, in fact, Zhu Xuhang in the No. 4 position went to assist in defense, without his assistance defense, Gillenwater may be picked, Qi Lin in the No. 3 position as a forward, is the first person outside the No. 45 position who should protect the rebound or card position, but more importantly, Gao Shiyan's opponent is Sirzati, Sirzati's performance throughout the game is very good, front board, air cut, steals, assists, outside, basket, Penalty kicks, which can be called the strongest game of the season, can not be described as amazing, but at the same time, it is not allowed to refuse to accept the lessons of this critical moment, overall, as long as the game is not lost, for Sirzati's performance, it can be said that it is flawed.
Well, speaking of which, if there is any center forward of Wu Guanxi, thick eyebrows or Li Yanzhe, these missed defenses should be better. For example, the reason why Gillenwater can shoot at the top is that Abdu is shorter than him, Gillenwater can make kills under the basket twice and Gao Shiyan grabs the front board, after all, because there is no big man under the basket.
Let's see how Xinjiang attacks.
Like Shandong, five outside the position, and then Qi Lin entered the line and asked for the ball to play Gao Shiyan in the low position, which is a dislocation in height, but don't underestimate Gao Shiyan's confrontation ability, after a few times of not moving, Qi Lin was forced to pass Abudu, and as a result, Abudu walked.
Then, it was still a five-outside position, Jones was sudden, and Shandong successfully interfered and counterattacked after shrinking - the pass was not passed. Coming back from the timeout, Jones continued to eat alone, made a mistake in the inside pass, and was hit back again - it shouldn't have been passed.
Later, Zhu Xuhang hit an unreasonable 3-point - thrilling life, the last attack, Qi Lin arc against Gao Shiyan shot 3 points missed. Zhu Xuhang's 3 points can be regarded as the only reason that can be supported in the rationality of the five-small lineup on the offensive end.
Finally, the rebound, during this time, Shandong grabbed 3 back boards and 3 front boards, Xinjiang 1 back board and 0 front boards, the front board is less because there is no big man under the basket, and the back board is less because of the high success rate of Shandong's offense, but there is still no big man under the basket at the root.
There is no doubt that in this game, the five-small lineup is a failure, how you argue it is a failure, of course, or what I have always said, the enemy is the rarest first, and Zhuge is the easiest afterwards, Qiu Gui must have the reason why he chose five small, so, why did Qiu Gui take the initiative to put five small when he was 11 points ahead, and Tao Hanlin was sent off?
Defensively, perhaps, I trust Abudu's single defense ability and flank defense ability more, perhaps, I don't believe in how strong Gillenwater is under the basket, I may think that Gillenwater is the kind of outside play, floating in the middle and long range all the year round, plus, the last time the two teams met, Gillenwater did only shoot once under the basket and failed to hit, and the others were all in the middle range and 3-point shots, then, putting the center will force Gillenwater to play the mid-to-long range shooting that he is good at, just like most of the time before this last quarter, so he simply put a small lineup。
Offensively, you can stop the boiling, empty the basket, and then hand it over to Jones to finish, just like Jones has done at countless critical moments in the past, at least at the moment on the critical moment scoring list, Jones ranks second in the league with 59 points, second only to Peterson of the Jilin team, but Jones is better than Peterson is that the success rate is higher, in fact, among the top 9 players in the critical moment scoring list, Jones's sports success rate ranks first, and the so-called Jones at critical moments has quality and quantity.
In addition, at that time, the lead was 11 points, and there was indeed some capital to bet on the small lineup, and the small lineup was strong in attack and weak in defense, not to mention the defense, if the offense could score a little more than one or two, wouldn't it be a wave to take away the game?
It's just that the offense was unexpectedly a mess, and the defense unsurprisingly became a weakness.
Not to mention this last moment, in fact, the whole game, Xinjiang's defense as a whole is doing well, three center forwards are guarding on the inside, others are killing the outside, as for Shandong, the twin towers hit a lot of mid-distance is not unacceptable, no matter how top defenders can not do everything, the day before Hu Jinqiu with two rotating forwards (Li Jinxiao and Wu Xiao) did not still throw Guangdong to death.
Therefore, if Shandong does not have external firepower output or small explosion points, it is unlikely to play a beautiful attack in the face of Xinjiang.
The important thing is that every time Xinjiang faces Shandong, its own offense is not good, the last time it played 99 points, this time it was 101, all lower than the season average, can not always rely on 3 points, in fact, this game is a good shot, through the strong and weak side transfer and off-ball cover, to Qi Lin made a lot of opportunities, the team 32 in 11, the shooting rate of 34.4% exceeded the season average. The main thing is that the "three-plate axe" has two boards with low efficiency, one is Jones, and the other is naturally Abudu.
Shandong's defensive resources are actually not bad, Tao Hanlin and Jia Cheng are relatively tough in defense, they can eat some confrontations, and the speed of lateral movement is not slow, and there is no problem in sweeping the defense within the 3-point line, in addition, the flanks Jiao Hailong and Gillenwater are also the kind of heavy and agile forwards, shrinking the pace of defense quickly, and the style can not be described as tenacious.
So Jones's breakthrough can't be said to be fully guaranteed, and the same is true of Abudu's back play and face frame, Jones scored 14 points on 5-of-18, fortunately, he sent 13 assists in tandem online, and Abudu scored 21 points on 6-of-17, and the true shooting percentage of both was lower than the season average of more than 80% of players in the same position in the league this season.
Jones can't be changed, he only has this style of play, the feel is good or bad, look at himself, Abudu, who has all kinds of knives, guns, swords, halberds, and halberds, has room for adjustment, reducing some of the unreasonable ball-holding attacks, and increasing off-ball projection and off-ball cutting is necessary. The most important thing for this kind of all-round striker is not how to focus on multi-point blossoming or defeat the enemy with one move, but to be able to adjust the style of play and change the way at any time according to the defensive changes on the field, and ultimately serve efficiency, not technology.
Of course, if you deliberately choose to face difficulties in order to improve your skills in some area, you don't have to say anything.
In the second game after Li Yanzhe joined, he once again encountered a team with a strong inner frame, Xinjiang won not so beautifully, which was in stark contrast to the previous game, and there is no doubt that he will meet more top frame-protecting teams in the future, so before the playoffs, the test of Xinjiang and Li Yanzhe is not over......
