1, Drummond Green
Green's tactics are valuable to the team. At the peak, the Warriors have a classic tactic: Green meets the double-team garage at the top of the arc, and then quickly holds the ball to the basket, and the opponent's inside line will come out to make up for it. At this time, Green threw the ball, and Igoda, who had been lurking at the bottom line, straightened into the basket and scored an empty goal. The whole tactic was done in one go.
However, as Green's shooting dropped, his opponent also made a targeted strategy. Last season, in a game against the Blazers, there was an extreme picture: Green held the ball at the top of the arc 4 meters before nobody, and other warriors had to face the situation of 5 defenses and 4 defenses. It is even more difficult to leave this empty place. This summer, Durant left Brooklyn, a brother left the team and Thompson was injured. Under such circumstances, next season's warriors urgently need Green to find the projection sight on the outside, otherwise it will be difficult for the warriors in the strong west to return to the peak.

James used to be the most feared person of the new champion Raptors, because he not only has strong personal attack power, but also has the ability to drive his teammates to the top level in history. Let's take a look at the two most classic scenes when the Cavaliers played the Raptors: First, positional warfare, James took the ball at 45 degrees on the right side, and the Raptors wanted to leave someone inside to help defend the basket at any time, while other Cavaliers took advantage of this opportunity to make a double cover at 45 degrees on the left side, and Smith came out to pick up James' pass and hit a three-pointer.
In James' better conversion attack, the Raptors' defense is more important. In the face of James who rushed up, they had planned to double-team in advance, but James's passing vision was quite broad. He quickly distributed the ball to the teammates who met him, and the empty three points appeared again. Such an opportunity has appeared countless times in the contest between the Cavaliers and the Raptors. Because there is nothing to do with James, the Raptors can only accept the outcome of failure again and again.
3. Rajan Rondo
It is well known that Rondo's command ability is mentioned. Whether in the Celtics, Kings, Pelicans or Lakers, he showed superb tactical savvy on the court. The most classic scene is the game between the king and the eagle. At the last moment, Director Long saw through the opponent's offensive tactics at a glance. He began to command his teammates before the eagle served the sideline ball, especially to let Cousins guard the bottom corner. Cousins was puzzled at first because there were no opposing players in the bottom corner.
But then, the eagle served, and millsap ran to the bottom corner with the help of the defender, intending to project three points. Cousins, however, has been waiting for a long time, and the food will be served in five seconds. The eagle had to change its established route and wanted to pass it to Koval, but the passing power between them was not well controlled and the game was finally intercepted by the king. Director Long's judgment on the situation of the stadium is amazing.
4. nikola jokic
95% of Nuggets' offensive tactics are based on Jokic, and Mr Yoo's versatility is a must. In this year's playoff game against the Spurs, his role was fully demonstrated. The most classic picture is to crack Popovich's double-team tactics: first, Jokic and Morris pick and roll at the top of the arc, taking the opportunity to form the dislocation of Jokic and Mills, and the Spurs were forced to change the defense again. Guy came from the baseline, but Ploom Lee, who should have been defending, slipped over the baseline and came to the basket. At this time, Jokic passed the ball quickly, and Mills not only had no time to change the defense, but also looked at the ball and sighed in the face of General Lamri's height.
What should I do if the arc top pick-and-roll is unsuccessful? The Nuggets have another cracking tactic: Jokic holds the ball on the strong side, and other perimeter players move to the other side, taking away the Spurs' perimeter defenders. Jokic took advantage of his weight to start low singles, when only the slower Spurs inside can double-team. At this time, Jokic will divide the ball outward, and the Nuggets will quickly pass the ball to the bottom corner, and the chance of three points will be realized. In fact, the key to carrying out these tactics is to ask teachers to master all the skills: hard hitting, long throwing, passing and cooperation.
5. chris paul
Paul is one of the few traditional point guards in the active league. He passes the ball accurately and rarely makes mistakes. The pick-and-roll cooperation between Hornets and West, Clippers and Griffin is quite classic, quite like Malone and stockton. After coming to the Rockets, the pick-and-pass tactics with the inside were more carried out by Harden, while the number of attacks by Paul under cover increased. For example, in the game against Timberwolves last season, Paul held the ball for half a court. At this time, Gordon and Tucker came up with fake cover, then Gordon quickly slipped to the lower left corner and Tucker slipped to the lower right corner. Paul took advantage of his opponent's rotation to hit a three-pointer, and the hit was steady.
Although there is a lot of such cooperation, the weakening of tactical position still makes Paul dissatisfied. Old star kenyon martin commented that Paul is a player who wants to be the tactical core. Because of this, he and Harden finally broke out, and the Rockets could only trade Paul in the offseason. In fact, Paul's decline this year is already obvious. If we don't change the problem of pointing fingers everywhere, I'm afraid his career will be hard.
