Super All-around Point Guard

Chapter 132 The Triangle Offense

After arriving in New York and getting off the plane, Xie Chen returned home to reunite with his parents as soon as possible. While Xie Chen's parents were proud of their son, they couldn't help reminding Xie Chen not to be too careless, probably referring to Katie and his son. Scarlett is the two women, and for a beautiful host who presented flowers to her son, a famous Hollywood movie star, the two old people also have their own supporters, Xie Chen's mother prefers Katie, while his father stands on the sidelines. On Scarlett's side, the reason is simple, Xie Chen's father is also a fan of Scarlett...

The Heat lost to the Clippers in the last game, and the news that Xie Chen was defeated by Paul, the two old people also heard about it, but they didn’t feel sad or angry like Xie Chen’s fans, and they didn’t say words of comfort and encouragement. The most common sentence is, play carefully and don't get hurt...

Poor parents all over the world, maybe in their hearts, they don't expect Xie Chen to become such a great superstar, they only hope that Xie Chen can complete his career in good health.

Injury is indeed a terrible thing for a professional athlete. For example, Anthony’s back injury before, as an ordinary person, it is uncomfortable even to sit on the sofa to watch the game. You have to stand up and move around from time to time, but now Anthony’s knee injury has not fully recovered, and another general of the Knicks, Stoudemire, has also been tortured by injuries. Some people even threatened that if Stoudemire hadn’t been injured back then, Barkley would be “the most destructive PF in history.” The position may not be guaranteed.

Xie Chen knows how horrific injuries and serious consequences injuries can have on professional athletes, so on the field, if he doesn't use his skills, he has always been very careful.

In the evening, his parents also followed Xie Chen to Madison Square Garden. This is not the first time Xie Chen has come to this arena. He is a New Yorker. His parents brought him here to watch football when he was a child. He did not expect to spend a lot of time with him. The place in the good old days, now come again, I have become the master on the court and the guest in the arena.

It is worth mentioning that the president of the Knicks team, the legendary coach Phil Jackson, also appeared on the scene, and took the initiative to go to Xie Chen's family to say hello.

"Hello, Chris Xie." Phil Jackson, who was ten centimeters taller than Xie Chen, extended his right hand to Xie Chen with a smile on his face, and then greeted Xie Chen's parents.

Phil Jackson is undoubtedly the greatest coach in NBA history. He has led the team to win 11 times. He has led the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers to three consecutive championships. It is hard to say who made who he and Jordan Kobe are. , but there is no doubt that both are indebted to the other.

Xie Chen expressed great admiration for the legendary coach. Although his team's president Pat Riley didn't appreciate him very much, Xie Chen half-jokingly said: "It's nice to meet you, President Jackson. Brought to New York, but it seems that your players don't know how to use it, I guess your team needs a player with ability and savvy like me."

"Hahaha." Phil Jackson laughed loudly: "Yes, I like your confidence, and I also like your jokes. Our players really need to improve in terms of tactical execution. I will take full responsibility for this wave of losing streak. But that doesn't mean we won't beat you tonight, don't forget, our team also has superstars."

Xie Chen glanced at Carmelo Anthony, who was practicing shooting, and replied to Phil Jackson: "I will show you the definition of a superstar again in front of you."

"Can't wait to see." Phil Jackson laughed.

Phil never expected that Xie Chen was as sharp-spoken as Jordan, and he revealed his pain points as soon as he talked. Indeed, the current record of the Knicks gave Phil Jackson a headache, and Barkley even bluntly said that the Knicks These players are wrong to use Phil Jackson's triangle offense for the simple reason that they will not learn the triangle offense because they will leave next year. They have to show themselves to the new club and try to get some data so that Can participate in the interview of the next team, so Phil should take part of the responsibility, and the most important thing is that the Knicks have no good players.

The match finally started. Xie Chen was aggrieved in the last match, and he vowed to prove himself in this match! With the first goal in the opening game, Xie Chen broke through the Knicks' heavy defense, went straight to the basket, and made a layup.

Xie Chen hit the Knicks by surprise with the first ball. The Knicks coach and Kobe's former teammate Fisher shook his head. The Knicks players didn't seem to realize that the game had already started, and they let Xie Chen play so easily. This made Fisher very disappointed with his team's defense. Now that the team has lost consecutively, the fans are calling for Fisher to dismiss get out of class more and more loudly, which makes Fisher breathless. The wife spoke.

It's the Knicks' turn to attack. Zen Master's triangle offense was once a unique weapon. Let's see if the Knicks can use it well.

After halftime, the ball was handed over to point guard Calderon. Calderon paused and passed it to Hardaway on the left. Hardaway paused and then passed it to Stoudemire. Action, Stoudemire spun around on the spot and passed the ball back to Calderon. Calderon took the ball and watched it for two seconds and then decided to go it alone, forcefully shot, and hit the iron.

In the 22-second attack this time, the really meaningful time may be less than five seconds. Everyone has to pause when the ball is in the hands. Everyone has to think about life first, and then make a meaningless action. , and then pass the ball to the next person to do the next meaningless action, just repeat and repeat...

"Hahaha... What an interesting triangle attack!" Xie Chen smiled, seeing if the ball was there or not, he quickly played it. After Luol Deng grabbed the rebound, he passed a long pass. Calderon, who was 191 cm long, chased To defend himself, Xie Chen simply ignored his existence, forced a layup, the ball scored, and caused a foul by Calderon's thugs!

"My son is great!" Xie Chen's parents clapped their hands happily on the sidelines, but this is the Knicks' home game. If it was the Heat's home game, then they would be able to cheer for Xie Chen unscrupulously.

What a great feeling to score a goal in front of your own family!

The Knicks are very unconvinced, this is Madison Square Garden! It's their territory, how can an outsider shine here? beat! The Knicks are going to attack! Isn't it going to be a triangle offense? Then find a triangle! Then, they actually found the triangle...

After halftime, the ball was given to Hardaway. He found himself on the left side and could not form a triangle, so he passed the ball to Calderon on the right side. Calderon found that the team leader came out to ask for the ball, so he Pass the ball to Anthony, and Anthony finds that he has formed a triangle with Early and Calderon at this time, okay! He seemed to give the ball back to Calderon after a glance, and Calderon passed the ball to the left, and then ran to the same direction to make a triangle with his teammates. After Hardaway got the ball, he was depressed. Stoudemire and Calderon formed a triangle, and Anthony Early also formed a triangle! What can I do?

After hesitating for about a second, it was passed to Calderon in the bottom corner, who made a three-pointer.

The Knicks made Xie Chen dizzy with this shot. Didn't Calderon run to the left to catch the ball and shoot a three-pointer? What happened to looking for the triangle so many times before?

Calderon gave Xie Chen a blank look, as if telling him, don't ask me, I don't know either!

Here Calderon didn't score, Xie Chen shot a three-pointer against Calderon after halftime, hit the three-pointer, scored 8 points in a row, and directly beat the Knicks 8:0!

Those who said that Xie Chen still couldn't get 20+ this time, all hid.

The fans in New York fell into helplessness and despair at the beginning of the game. Is there still no miracle? Is the Knicks really so bad that they can be defeated by Xie Chen alone? Is the triangle offense really not suitable for the Knicks?

The two important factors of the triangle offense, one is the starting point of the offense, and the other is the selection of the pass. In the triangle offense, it usually starts with a 1-2-2 or 3-2 position, and the two waists The inside line receives the ball and starts to attack. While receiving the ball inside and making support or attack actions, the defender passing the ball on the same side cuts to the other side, and the inside line on the opposite side screens or cuts with the striker to find opportunities.

That is to say, even if it is not an insider attack, there are high requirements for the insider support ability. In the current offense of the Knicks, not to mention the insider support ability, the participation is far from enough. Sometimes the insider is a decoration.

The Knicks' pass selection is also a problem. A good offense often requires the transfer of strong and weak side balls, so as to mobilize the opponent's defensive formation. In the Knicks' offense, it is rare to see active strong and weak sides. Transfer, they either don't pass the ball, kill on one side, or are forced to transfer, plus there are a lot of hesitant passes in the offense, resulting in a protracted and inefficient overall offense. It is not difficult to explain the team with the worst record in the league.

However, no matter how badly the Knicks play, don't forget that there is still a superstar in the team. Besides Anthony, there is also Stoudemire. As long as these two people are there, you can't treat the Knicks as a persimmon.

In the second half of the first quarter, Amare Stoudemire, who was given the nickname "Little Overlord", took the lead in showing off! Bosh succeeded in three consecutive singles at the basket, two of which were dunks!

Stoudemire is still a very threatening offensive player, playing very tough. The combination with Nash and the Suns back then attracted countless fans.

Today, Nash has been injured and has been on a truce. I heard that he is planning to retire, but Stoudemire wants to win a championship while he can still play. Of course, he is not in this Knicks team. It won't be long before Stoudemire may leave.

Stoudemire has set an example for the team on the offensive end, and wants to take more responsibility on the defensive end, so he wants to stop Xie Chen who has been scoring crazy. Unfortunately, the bully back then might be able to do it, but now Stoudemire, But can't do it!
