Chapter 174 Epoch-making Tactics
On the second day of the game, the Atlantic Coast League made a penalty announcement:
Because Cavalry player Maggette punched and kicked Pittsburgh Panthers player Ryan in the game, he was punished with a 20-game suspension and an additional 5-meter gold penalty for the University of Virginia.
On the campus of the University of Virginia, every student saw the punishment announcement made by the alliance. Everyone thought it was very unfair. It was obviously Ryan who provoked first, but Ryan did not have any punishment.
Although Maggette is not the top center in the NCAA arena, the lack of his inside guard in the Cavalry still weakens a certain strength.
To make matters worse, the big black dragon has been playing with injuries in the last game, which directly aggravated his ankle injury, causing him to miss the next few games.
According to the observation of the team doctor, it is preliminarily judged that the big black dragon needs to rest for at least a month.
In one game, the Cavalry team lost two starting insiders, which made the students of the University of Virginia feel very helpless.
Originally they planned to compete for the championship, but now they don't know whether the team's record can be maintained.
And some students even began to worry about whether the team could break into next year's championship.
At this moment, An Zuo, the head coach of the cavalry team, also had a headache. Originally, the team's main force framework had been formed, but he did not expect to lose two main players in one game.
Although during the offseason, the team supplemented insiders like Richardson and Chris, who was not used much last season, it is obvious that neither of them is a qualified main player, and they can only play as a player in the game. Substitute for a few minutes.
The reason is simple. Both of them are big colanders on the defensive end. Their footsteps are too slow, and the opponent's small defender can easily pass their defense.
And when the pick-and-roll is switched, once Richardson and Chris are switched out, they can't return to the defense quickly.
A basketball game may seem like a 48-minute game, but the actual outcome can be determined in just a few minutes.
After falling behind by more than 20 points in a few minutes, it is difficult for the trailing side to recover.
This is also the reason why some head coaches have been clinging to the main players, and the rotation players are at most 2 people.
At this moment, two cups of poison are placed in front of An Zuo. If you use those two big colanders, the team will be able to poke tens of thousands of people inside. If you don't, there will be no one inside the team.
dong dong dong.
Just when An Zuo was having a headache, Zhao Qiang pushed the door open and entered.
"Coach, I heard you are looking for me?"
Zhao Qiang asked tentatively.
"Looking for you? No, there is no training today, why should I look for you?"
An Zuo lit a cigarette, and said in a puffy voice.
"That's strange. Teaching assistant Anderson told me that you should come to the meeting room and ask me to give you this document."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Qiang took out a stack of A4 papers and handed them to An Zuo.
"This is?"
An Zuo looked puzzled, he didn't understand what the assistant coach Anderson was doing.
But after Anzuo read two pages, he immediately fell into it, because the basketball tactics in these documents were too novel, and they solved the dilemma that the big black dragon and Maggette couldn't play very well.
In general, this novel technique and tactics is simply tailor-made for the team.
However, An Zuo still questioned this tactic.
Seeing An Zuo's frown, Zhao Qiang immediately asked, "Coach, is Anderson's tactics not working?"
"It's not impossible, it's just a little risky."
"His tactical idea is to let the two inside players on the bench play a fake start first, and then let Lao Tie and Du Lin go directly to the inside."
"Although the mobility has increased and the shooting ability has also increased, but some players are too short, and the rebounds are easy to be exploded."
An Zuo took a drag on his cigarette and raised his doubts.
"Coach, I don't think so. Both Lao Tie and Du Lin are about 2 meters tall, and they are not short. Moreover, Lao Tie's ability to grab rebounds has always been very strong. I believe he can protect rebounds very well."
"What's even more frightening is that the five-man team of Xiaode, Brown, me, Du Lin and Lao Tie has extremely strong shooting ability, and in a sense, they can completely cover up their lack of rebounding with their shooting ability."
Zhao Qiang explained to An Zuo that he recognized the advantages of this lineup.
Hearing Zhao Qiang's explanation, An Zuo nodded slightly, also expressing his agreement. He believed that if this experimental lineup of five people was successful, it would definitely lead a new era.
"Oh, by the way, Anderson also gave this group of five a nice name."
"What is your name?"
"Five Little Dead!"
Zhao Qiang said his name out loud.
"Good name, good tactics, really epoch-making innovation."
"This Anderson, I don't usually see that he has such a great ability, but I didn't expect it to be a blockbuster today."
"This afternoon, I must have a good discussion with him."
An Zuo said to himself.
"Uh... Coach, I still have things to do, so I won't bother you for now."
Zhao Qiang said hello briefly, and then walked out of the conference room in a hurry.
In fact, Zhao Qiang asked Tang Xiaowan to draw this tactical blueprint based on his description.
Zhao Qiang understands that this matter will definitely be exposed, but he must let An Zuo know the way to break the situation.
Because he vowed to win the championship this year.
But before the start of the next game, Zhao Qiang still has some things to do...
As night fell, the east gate of the University of Pittsburgh.
"Captain, we have been waiting for almost half an hour, will that boy Ryan come from here?"
The old iron asked with a puzzled face.
"Don't worry, it was his roommate who gave me the information, and he has long been unhappy with this kid. Originally, he wanted to join us in this operation."
Zhao Qiang said calmly.
"Captain, look, that kid is coming."
Du Lin pointed to the distance, and said to Lao Tie and Zhao Qiang beside him.
Since the three of them were wearing masks and baseball caps, they were not recognized by the students passing by the University of Pittsburgh. Ryan, who also walked over, did not notice the three of Zhao Qiang.
"you…"
Before Ryan finished speaking, he was dragged by Zhao Qiang and the others to the grove at the east gate.
Then what greeted Ryan was a burst of punching and kicking. His newly healed eye sockets cracked again at this moment, and his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.
In the end, the old iron did not forget to give a key kick, and he kicked towards Ryan's little brother.
"You... who are you?"
Ryan clutched his crotch, excruciatingly painful.
Because Ryan usually offended too many people, he couldn't remember who beat him for a while.
After Ryan looked up, he found that there was no one around him.
"Captain, do you think this kid will go to the school leader or report the crime directly?"
The old iron asked while running.
"Don't worry, this kid values his own face more than anything else, and he will never make this embarrassing incident public."
Zhao Qiang said with a calm smile.
