"The Knicks' tactics are like this. When attacking first, the normal big and four small positions start, and Lin asks for the ball on the left or right." Barkley said, flicking the blue magnet on the tactical board representing the Knicks.
"But obviously what the Knicks want to play is not a low-post tactic, because if it is a low-post tactic, they should give the ball to the wing players on the same side as Lin in time, and let the wing players feed Lin the ball." Barkley continued to toggle the magnet.
"As you can see, the current situation has become that the Knicks pitcher on the left came out to catch the ball, and their point guard ran towards the corner on this side. On the other side, Lin seemed to be running out to catch the ball in a high position, but pay attention. At this moment, Lin suddenly ran back and set a screen for the pitcher on this side near a 45-degree angle! At the same time, the point guard in the corner on the left side is also covering another person. This is a very classic pick-and-roll three-point tactic!" Barkley said.
"That is to say, Lin changed from the main point of attack to a pick-and-roll player. The Knicks made a 45-degree baseline backrun screen at the same time. Whichever side had a chance, they would throw a three-pointer to that side. But here comes the problem, Charles. As far as I know, this tactic is not difficult to defend if it is targeted." Kenny Smith said.
Barkley nodded, "Of course there is no perfect tactic in this world. After all, no matter how good the tactic is, if you keep hitting the opponent, you will react to it. The real reason for the Thunder's continuous success is Lin."
"Oh?" Kenny Smith looked at Barkley curiously. Although he doubted that the fat man was trying to brag about Lin Yi, there was still something in Barkley's explanation sometimes.
"Lin's consecutive offense at the beginning of the fourth quarter was completed, which created an illusion for the Thunder: The Knicks are going to let Lin attack crazily. Since you think Lin can't kill you, then I will call you." Barkley paused, and then said: "But Kenny, the reason why the 'Jordan Rule' is famous is not because the 'Jordan Rule' can prevent Jordan, but because the 'Jordan Rule' is the best choice when it cannot be defended."
"Charles, do you mean that the Thunder's attention has been attracted by Lin?" Kenny Smith said.
"That's right, the Knicks' first attack caught the Thunder by surprise, but in the second time, the Thunder had already responded, but at this time Lin suddenly went down. We can see from the video playback that, in fact, at this time, on the other side of the Knicks, Louis Williams had already run out of the opportunity!" Barkley asked the director to adjust the replay, and explained while watching the replay.
"Hey! Really!" Kenny Smith's eyes lit up.
"Although the ball was completed by Lin through an alley-oop dunk, the Knicks' tactics have actually succeeded. In the third time, we can see that there were opportunities on both sides of the Knicks, but Belinelli gave this opportunity to Gallinari." Barkley said.
"So it is!" Kenny Smith suddenly realized.
Because of fear, the Thunder adopted the "Jordan Rule" against Lin Yi; because of fear, after Lin Yi scored consecutively at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Brooks requested a timeout; because of fear, the Knicks covered three-pointers on both sides.
The fundamental purpose of the 'Jordan Rule' was to allow Lin Yi to fight on his own, but unknowingly, the two rounds totaled more than seven quarters, and the Thunder players had already regarded Lin Yi as a big boss.
Lin Yi's aura is infinitely magnified, and the Thunder can't help but pay attention to his existence when defending.
This is the root cause of the success of the Knicks' cover tactics on both sides!
……
During the timeout, Coach Brooks of the Thunder hurriedly arranged and arranged for his disciples.
On the Knicks side, D'Antoni patted Belinelli on the shoulder, "Thank you, Marco."
Belinelli nodded with a smile. Old De trusted him so much, he was already very content.
"The next game is up to you, Lin." D'Antoni looked at Lin Yi and said.
Lin Yi wiped the sweat off his forehead with a towel, and then, he did it with real knives and guns!
After returning from the timeout, the Knicks' lineup was adjusted to Lin Yi, David Lee, Harrington, Gallinari, and Chandler.
D'Antoni is not good at responding on the spot, but some of Lin Yi's opinions can always poke his heart.
"No point guard again?" Thunder coach Brooks was dumbfounded.
That's right, no point guard.
Lin Yi also gave this lineup a nickname: The Big Five of Death.
球场上，此时尼克斯五名球员的身高分别是221公分、208公分、206公分、208公分、203公分。
Although the NBA's official data is inaccurate, the height of the Knicks' players is close to ten.
"Are you constantly switching defenses like last time?" Thunder coach Brooks was a little confused.
of course not.
On the field, after returning from a timeout, Gallinari made a free throw.
The score became 92 levels.
People are very curious about what the Knicks are trying to do by constantly changing the lineup in the fourth quarter?
What do you want to do?
Of course it is a win!
Lin Yi's attack at the beginning of the fourth quarter was to put pressure on the Thunder. This was the first step for the Knicks to come back.
Next, the Knicks' cover tactics on both sides were to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak up on the Thunder and approach the score.
If everything goes well, the Thunder will definitely adjust to deal with it, and this is the real decisive moment for the Knicks.
The rotation speed of the death five is not so fast.
What the Knicks have to do is simple.
On the court, when Kevin Durant saw the defender appearing in front of him, he was suddenly stunned.
It was Lin Yi who defended him!
"Playing David Lee and Harrington at the same time is to deal with the height of the Thunder. In fact, Lin is not playing a center in this lineup, but a small forward!" Mike D'Antoni said on the sidelines.
That's right!
If the Knicks want to win tonight, what must be limited is Durant's scoring.
The best way to defend Durant is to let Lin Yi go one-on-one with him.
Don't you want to use "Jordan's Law"?
OK, we also use "Durant's Law"!
What is Durant's greatest strength?
Those who are taller than him are not as fast as him, and those who are faster than him are not as tall as him. He can always use shots and breakthroughs to form dislocations, and few people can interfere with his dry shots.
But Lin Yi is taller than him, and his speed is not much slower than him. If Durant wants to pull directly, he must weigh it carefully.
"Are the Knicks crazy? Will Lin be able to play the entire fourth quarter?" Thunder coach Brooks on the sidelines was crazy.
If Lin Yi was to be both offensive and defensive, that would definitely not work.
But if he only defends, Lin Yi can do it.
In the first match between Durant and Lin Yi, Durant directly wanted to use Crossover to get rid of it, only to find that Lin Yi followed up.
"What a quick lateral movement!" Durant felt that there was a big mountain in front of him. He tried unsuccessfully to attack and was about to call for a pick-and-roll. Lin Yi was not reluctant. Seeing Jeff Green, who was coming from the Thunder to pick and roll, he directly switched defenses with veteran Harrington.
"I understand!" In the reporter area, Wu Xiaolei finally stopped biting the pen full of tooth marks.
"What's the matter, Miss Xiaolei?" Qi Jun asked curiously.
"Durant is having a hard time right now, because no matter who he is playing in pick-and-rolls, the ones who switch to him are all big guys! The shortest Knick is Chandler, and the slowest is David Lee, but Chandler has wingspan. David Lee has been improving his ability to defend the perimeter alone since January. In this way, no matter who the Knicks are, they can do it, otherwise Durant will easily score points!" Wu Xiaolei said.
"The Knicks' top five are carefully prepared for Durant! They can allow Durant to score points, but they don't allow Durant to take it too easily!" Wu Xiaolei added.
Qi Jun still didn't understand it, but it sounded very powerful.
Of course it's great!
On the court, Durant forcibly missed a shot. After the Knicks protected the rebound, as expected, it was Lin Yi who controlled the ball on the Knicks side.
At this time, Thunder coach Brooks finally reacted belatedly.
"I understand. They don't let Lin be the main attack point, but instead use him to organize the offense. The physical consumption of threading needles is far less intense than Lin Wuyou's single play. In this way, his physical fitness will be guaranteed!" Brooks said with emotion.
If Lin Yi goes to play point guard, how can you prevent him from driving his teammates?
And you have to pay attention to marking Lin Yi, because this guy may be cold at any time——
On the court, perhaps he paid too much attention to the Knicks' running position. Ibaka, who was man-marking Lin Yi, was careless, and Lin Yi stepped back and shot a three-pointer.
Swish-!
Hollow into the network!
"He will give you a cold shot like this!" Brooks never imagined that Lin Yi could bring so many offensive changes and routine choices to this Knicks team.
"What a headache! I should have used Russell to trade the Clippers' No. [-] pick." Brooks thought with emotion.
Of course, it's not Brooks' style to just give up.
Durant's touch in the fourth quarter dropped a lot, but the Thunder still have two other players!
How should the Knicks deal with Westbrook and Harden?
Soon, Brooks knew the answer.
