On October 26, 2016, the Philadelphia 76ers ushered in the opening match of the 2016-2017 season at home

Oklahoma City Thunder

This team has been repeated many times in the previous article, so there is no need to introduce it too much here.

"The starting lineup is Brogdon, Richardson, Young, Covington, and Embiid." The starting lineup of a senior and four juniors was established in the preseason.

"Richardson is staring at Westbrook, if he is pick-and-roll with Adams, you will be around the defense. Covington is staring at Robertson, you are our core mobile defense force, and protecting the basket is your primary goal." The key man has a big relationship with the empty man, and Brett Brown first gave the arrangement.

"Yan, Sabonis I'll leave it to you. I believe you can solve the low post. As for his exterior disassembly, you can ignore it like ignoring Robertson, and spending this part of your energy on protecting the basket and backcourt rebounds."

"We have to guard against Adams' frontcourt rebound."

Because I didn't decide what defensive strategy to play, Uduka's defensive strategy was changed directly to play defensive targeted.

"Joe, our baskets are counting on you. In a word, they dare to invade your territory, and you will hit them down." With a large center of sufficient size, the 76ers did not need to put the burden of the frame guard on Yang's shoulders,

After explaining all the explanations, the competition also entered the countdown to the beginning.

Point Guard: Westbrook, Scoreback: Oladipo, Small Forward: Andre Robertson, Power Forward: Sabonis Jr., Center: Adams

The Thunder's starting lineup is exactly the same as the lineup they used in preseason.

Because the upper class wanted to cause a topic, Mav Albert had to start the description below

"A new season has begun, Reggie, what kind of answer do you think Young will give." Because he is not a shooter, he threw the prediction pit to Reggie Miller, and Mav Albert's operation is very good

"31 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, and 40% three-point shooting percentage. What do you think Groom?" Reggie Miller's prediction was not bold, and even a bit average.

"338 points, 10 rebounds, 55 assists, 45% three-point shooting percentage, 52% mid-range shooting percentage" Mav Albert's prediction is much bolder than Reggie Miller's prediction.

When the two people make predictions, the game also enters the beginning stage.

Facing Adams, who has become a heavy center, Embiid won his first jump ball this season.

Because he cut the ball possession to Brogden, Young did not fall at the end of the formation like last year, but ran quickly towards the Thunder halftime

As each came to the initial position of the tactics, the tactical button of the 76ers was activated.

Bottom line cross cover

In order to solve Embiid's placement problem, Brett Brown took out a big card as soon as he came up

king

Robertson, who leads Young, is still Robertson five months ago, but Ibaka and Durant, who were escorting behind him before, have left the team.

In addition, Adams transformed into a heavy center, the Thunder's defense had problems with this cross cover.

Seeing that Embiid was about to form a situation where no one defended, Robertson had to throw away Yang and go to misplace Embiid to defend Embiid.

After all, the unguarded basket and misplaced targeting two people is obviously more likely to be punished than the latter.

Go to the ball

Faced with the already formed misalignment, Brogden couldn't find it, and immediately a high lob was hung into the inside line.

Turn around

Facing Embiid who was rubbed into the paint area, Robertson, who was more experienced

It cannot withstand the difference between tonnage and height

"Ding"

Fouls have also become something that cannot be avoided.

"It's a good idea to use a top shooter as bait to reduce the cost of center positioning."

"Yen had already made a name for himself last season, so he used his deterrence to reduce the burden on Embiid. Coach Brown obviously had his brains in the summer,"

"By the way, is our conversation too long?"

"Yes, both free throws are over, now let's see if the Sixers' defense has changed."

Pick-and-drop

Westbrook and Adams pick-and-roll are rare tactical starting styles for the Thunder

Although this trick solved the problem of Adams dragging space

But the other three players' three-pointers were also not outstanding.

The three-pointers of the five were not good, so the 76ers' defensive position did not even maintain a slight politeness.

Except for Richardson staring at Westbrook, everyone else was trapped near the paint area.

Richardson, who was on the first line of defense, was a good breakthrough for Westbrook, but all four of them were closing on the edge of the penalty area. Even if they were as strong as Westbrook, they had to frown slightly.

Of course, my brows just frowned a little.

Just chose to face the difficulties and rush to the penalty area

Covington, 2.03 meters tall, 2.18 meters tall

2m11 height, 2m28 wingspan

Embiid is 2.13 meters tall, 2.28 meters tall

When Young and Covington on both sides recovered the basket, Westbrook found himself unable to see where he could not even see the frame.

Passing the ball?

Why do I have to pass the ball? I have to make a layup!!!

"This iron problem has really not changed at all."

Since Westbrook's iron head, Young also has a treatment for iron head.

"Pa" Although the volleyball cap is very undesirable, Yang still used this move in this round.

"ohhhhhhhhhh" How could Philadelphia fans not have any support at all in the face of their enthusiastic big hat?

"Counterattack, an excellent opportunity for Philadelphia." Because he played very hard, Brogdon seized the opportunity and picked up the fallen rebound.

"Foof, foul, foul" Westbrook did not retreat at all, but instead asked the referee to ask for a foul.

"no" Westbrook is on the head, but the referee will not be on the head. Such a false foul will not be on the head.

cover

Just as Westbrook chatted with the referee, Young, who came to the Thunder half, made an impromptu pick-and-roll cooperation with Brogdon with the ball.

Watching all the Thunder defenders chase Yang, who is responsible for the pick-and-roll cover, ignore Brogden's pick-and-roll breakthrough

Groom Albert couldn't help but sigh.

"The Thunder's defense collapsed, and they were scared to death by Yang before they fought."

"Donovan should now regret saying in an interview that he is not familiar with Durant."

"Bang" Because the basket was wide open, Brogden did not hesitate to end the round with a rare dunk without hesitation.

0:4

It's still a pick-and-roll, it's still a penalty area retraction

The difference is that Westbrook made a change. This time he did not face the challenge, but chose to perform at the weak point of the 76ers' defense.

The mid-distance defense is indeed the weakness of the 76ers' conservative defensive route

Westbrook saw this clearly

But he forgot
Chapter completed!
