Chapter 37

After winning the first battle with a lore, the Blazers celebrated wildly, and Roy and others surrounded Adelaide.

Su Yang lowered his raised hands, calmed down his inner excitement, and applauded the team members.

In his opinion, if the game can be won, Adelaide has to remember the first achievement, because Adelaide made 20 of 13 shots, plus 5 free throws, scored a career high 31 points, scored consecutively in the first quarter against Biao Ginobili, and finally Finished the lore again.

Roy's performance is also commendable. He made 11 of 6 shots and sent 8 assists. With his personal breakthrough ability, he attracted the Spurs' key defense, opened up a lot of space for the rest of the Blazers, and did not grab the ball as the leader.

Jack and Webster scored a total of 28 points. Outlaw and Blake were also able to withstand the situation on the bench. rather than the Youth Army.

While the players celebrated, Popovich walked to the middle of the technical stage and shook hands with McMillan.

Popovich asked curiously: "Nate, where did you learn the last tactic, tell me quickly..."

McMillan shrugged with a smile: "That was arranged by my assistant Su Yang, are you interested in getting to know him?"

"Of course, it's that Asian boy, right?" Popovich turned to look at Su Yang.

McMillan nodded, shouted and waved at Su Yang.Su Yang heard the sound and walked over immediately.

"Hey, handsome guy, can you tell me about your last tactic?" Popovich laughed.

"I learned it from a high school basketball team. It was originally a baseline ball tactic. I just made a temporary adjustment..."

Su Yang briefly recalled that the tactic was spread by Doc Rivers when he was coaching the Celtics, and the reason why Doc Rivers knew that tactic was because he went to watch the game in the high school where Rivers Jr. was. Steal a high school basketball coach.

The tactic itself is not difficult. It is to use peripheral shooting to attract defensive attention. The powerful part is counter-intuitive. After the player cuts out of the basket, there are too many spaces and opportunities to catch the ball, but the end point is the basket.

Although Rivers is often joked by fans that the pig has no tactics, after he brought that tactic to the NBA, many coaches imitated and modified other versions, which is one of the reasons why Rivers is particularly popular in the league.

"I see, next time we go to Portland, I'll ask you for a drink..." Popovich nodded with satisfaction, then looked at McMillan again, "I think you should agree? We sent Monty to you ,do not forget."

"Kang Muang!" McMillan laughed loudly, and everyone laughed along with him, making the atmosphere very interesting.

Su Yang also laughed, but he always felt that Popovich seemed to have some deep meaning when he said that.

But no matter what the deep meaning was, he didn't think too much about it, sent Bobo and the others away, and then returned to the sidelines to interact with the players.

In a blink of an eye, all the players finished celebrating, the big team returned to the locker room first, and Ade stayed for an interview.

Su Yang didn't return with the big team, but stayed on the sidelines and waited for Ade, ready to give a few words of praise.

Since ESPN canceled the national live broadcast of the Trail Blazers, a reporter from a small TV station was in charge of interviewing Adelaide, and that reporter was originally planning to interview the defending champion Spurs, because the strength gap between the two teams is too large, and the Spurs are more likely to win.

But the Blazers won, making the originally prepared questions useless, so the reporter could only prepare a few questions hastily.

"First of all, let's talk about the 15-2 climax in the first quarter. How did you do it?"

"Coach Su Yang encouraged us not to be afraid of making mistakes and hitting the iron. He also encouraged us to bravely try various possibilities. He said that through a large number of singles, we will weaken the Spurs' defensive linkage ability, thereby narrowing the gap between us and the Spurs..."

"OK, let's talk about your streak of individual scoring. What happened at that time?"

"That was also Coach Su Yang's suggestion, but I didn't know it was his suggestion until halftime. At that time, Jack asked me to play with the ball more. Coach Su Yang thought that I had an absolute advantage against Robert Horry. I should play more. shot."

"Understood, then why did you ask for three timeouts in a row at the last moment, deliberately confusing your opponent?"

"Um...that was also coach Su Yang's decision. According to him, our first two tactical arrangements were seen through by the Spurs. He thought we couldn't take risks and had to make a third arrangement. Anyway, we succeeded."

After finishing the interview, Ade walked to the sidelines and saw Su Yang waiting, and happily asked for a group photo to commemorate the new high score.

After the reporter helped to take a good photo, the two returned to the locker room together and talked casually about how to defend Duncan.

The moment Ade walked into the locker room, he was poured with mineral water by Outlaw and others.Su Yang walked behind and wanted to hide, but was also found by Mike Roberts.

McMillan then called the whole team to speak, first praised Adelaide and other players, and then praised Su Yang for his excellent suggestions.

Su Yang said that the team's victory is due to the whole team, especially Monty's reminder to return to defense quickly, otherwise the Spurs can easily succeed in many offenses, and there will be no final lore moment. Assistant coach Bill helped to call a timeout in time Very important.

The whole team celebrated and packed up to leave the ATT center. Su Yang went directly to the parking lot.

He does not need to participate in the locker room interview, and he is not qualified for the post-match press conference, so he just goes and waits.

When boarding the bus, he took out his mobile phone habitually, but there were few news updates, and the 3G era had not yet arrived.

"It's so boring, I need to have some fun..." Su Yang thought that the next few days will be all road trips. If he spends time studying tactics every day, he will vomit sooner or later. Order something else.

"Buy a PS3 to play, BioShock should be released, this year there will be a lot of game masterpieces..."

Su Yang made up his mind, turned on the radio on his mobile phone, switched to the ESPN sports channel, and listened to chat programs casually.

【Simon, I heard that the game between Portland and San Antonio was very exciting. Portland finally called three timeouts to set up a lore tactic, and it was not McMillan who set up the tactic, but his assistant coach Su Yang. That's crazy. 】

[Su Yang?I seem to remember that guy, before our TV station canceled the Blazers national live broadcast, he tweeted that the performance of the Blazers in the new season will make us regret it.So, he did it tonight? 】

[It should be counted. I heard that the ratings of the St. Anxi local TV station have reached a record high. 】

[So we really underestimated Portland?But we have to look at the follow-up games. Many teams have performed very well at the beginning of the new season, but as the season progresses, they will gradually expose their problems. Moreover, in this league, there is no absolute gap in strength. On-the-spot performance may determine many things. The Spurs It might just be careless tonight. 】

Listening to the chat on the radio, Su Yang held his mouth back slightly. He also knew that there were indeed many teams that started the game aggressively, and even occupied the top spot in the league, but due to the protracted season, they were gradually overtaken by other teams, and finally fell behind to the bottom of the league.

Therefore, many people think that the Blazers beat the Spurs in this game is just luck.

The next step for the Blazers is to avoid similar problems, and to avoid similar problems, the players must establish tactical literacy. It is impossible to win every night by relying on superb state, and they must also learn to deal with adversity and difficulties .

While Su Yang was thinking about it, the rest of the team arrived, and the whole team set off for the airport to prepare for the away game against the Hornets.

On the plane, the coaching staff held a warm-up meeting first, and the first question was how to limit Chris Paul.
