Section 142 Continuous air cuts and logoshots that have not been seen for a long time(1/2)

Faced with a situation where he made three free throws in the first game, Young took control of the next offense from Brogdon.

"Down" Before halftime, Young made a gesture that is exclusive to the 76ers for the Down tactic.

Although the ball passed half the court, Young did not covet the ball but passed the ball crosswise to Richardson at the top of the key.

Basket

Josh Richardson raised the ball high and found the first opportunity under the basket.

Tightly blocked by Myles Turner

"Robert." The first tactical choice was noticed, allowing Richardson to start moving closer to Covington, who was covering Young.

hand to hand

At the same moment, just as Covington was handing over, Brogdon also used Embiid's screen to cut 45 degrees from the elbow to the right.

Cross ball

Thaddeus Young, who was guarding Covington, did not expect that Covington, who had poor passing skills, would dare to pass the ball crosswise.

The Pacers didn't expect it, but Brogdon did.

Because the 76ers are all about suddenness

lob

When he saw that Young had Paul George stuck behind him, Brogdon immediately lobbed the ball toward the low post.

behind the back

When Brogdon didn't break through and Embiid didn't stand in the low post, Young got the space he needed to post up.

catch the ball, shoot

Yang, who has an absolute height of 2.11 meters, chose the simplest way when facing an elite defender alone.

Dry pull from the top of the opponent's head

"..."

5:3,7 to 3

Although he is second to third in three-pointers, he can also hit the frame without touching the net from mid-range.

When it came to the Pacers' round, Pacers head coach Jeff Teague changed from his previous confused nature and began to direct his teammates to create open opportunities for Paul George.

"Thaddeus" When Paul George circled to 45 degrees and was still stared at by Young, Jeff Teague started a backup plan.

hand to hand

Walkers also use hand-to-hand to solve problems.

In order to avoid being called for another foul, Yang bypassed the screen wall and kept his raised hands at a certain safe distance.

"clang"

The long arm blocked Paul George's three-point shot.

counterattack

Although they have big center Embiid, the 76ers still choose to resolutely push back when it's time to counterattack.

second pass

Covington, who took off the rebound, was unable to handle the ball on his own and had to choose to pass the ball with one more hand.

"Retreat." On the Pacers side, only Myles Turner and Paul George retreated to their own half.

"cover"

In order to get rid of Paul George's entanglement, Brogdon can only seek Young's pick-and-roll cover

After Young turned his body to 135 degrees, Paul George's pressure broke. He was caught on the screen.

dismantle

It only takes a moment to hang on Paul George, and the threat of subsequent dismantling is what the 76ers want.

"Bang" Facing Young who raised his hands high on the side, both Paul George and Myles Turner completely forgot about Brogdon who was sprinting straight for a dunk.

9:3

"pause"

"Why do you give up 100% of your dunks to seal the three-pointer?"

"Even if you are Stephen Curry, you should not make such a choice."

Pacers head coach McMillan was very dissatisfied with the team's players' choices in this defense.

…………

…………

After playing several self-led offenses, Young began to gradually reduce his offensive presence and handed the game over to Embiid.

"beep"

"beep"

"beep"

Neither veteran Thaddeus Young nor fledgling Myles Turner escaped the foul crisis brought by Embiid.

"Lavoie, you replace Thaddeus." The starting power forward committed two fouls in less than six minutes, and McMillan did not dare to take a gamble.

As for why it’s not big center Al Jefferson, but Lavoy Allen who averages less than 12 minutes per game.

because…

McMillan saw Ilyasova already standing on the sidelines.

dead ball

After experiencing a defense and an offense, the 76ers got the dead ball opportunity they needed.

With Embiid gone, Young, who didn't need to worry about Embiid, directly launched a super high pick-and-roll attack.

flanking or not flanking

Change defense but not change defense

The problem that has plagued other NBA teams for a season has surfaced again after Young gave up without the ball and resumed attacking with the ball.

"Push through, squeeze through"

The position was too high, and it was difficult to catch up after the delay. Grant, the setter who had practiced for a year last year, was not on the team. The Pacers, with me as the main player, chose to squeeze through the screen.

Young, who was holding the ball in his right hand, looked at Paul George's choice and immediately pulled the ball from his right hand to his left hand.

Take the non-cover side

Young also knows the tricks that small guards often use.

"???" Lavoy Allen, who is not a defensive expert, was completely confused about this choice.

After passing the confused Lavoy Allen, the Pacers' defense was down to the last line of defense.

Myles Turner

Taking three steps, stepping on Yang on the edge of the three-second zone, he was ready to attack the frame.

"Don't even think about it"

Myles Turner, who took off at the same time, raised his arms, trying to completely block Young's breakthrough.

"You guessed it wrong." When Covington was in the air cut position, he had reached the edge of the three-second zone unimpeded.

Young's pass was bold and accurate.

"Bang" The Pacers' basket suffered several bombings in the first six minutes of the first quarter, and now Covington added fuel to the fire.

"Official timeout" As Young knocked Jeff Teague's pass out of the sideline, the official timeout, which was very important to the Pacers, came.

"Young's all-round shooting, Embiid's size and pressure on the basket, made McMillan's personnel and layout almost fall behind every step of the way."

"The 76ers' biggest problems last season were that they were not aggressive enough in attacking the frame and had too few breakthroughs. They have been well compensated for this season."

"Lavoy Allen is not suitable to appear in this kind of game. McMillan should consider using Glenn Robinson III to help Paul George relieve pressure, otherwise the score difference on the court will not be as simple as 10:20."

"Loop"

"Watch the run"

The route from the left wing to the right wing was cleared, and a double screen was placed at the free throw line, which immediately made Young's nerves tense.

"Switch defense"

Facing the joint screen of two big men, Young can only solve the problem by going around the screen, but guarding Paul George is not suitable for going around the screen, so switching defense is the best option.

Why switch defense

Brogdon, Richardson, and Covington have three large players at the same position, and the 76ers have the capital to switch defenses.
