Today’s Blazers 105-123 lost warriors. In the last game, the Kweichow Moutai reclusive Land slashed 71 points. Today, the game was played for 35 minutes, shooting 9 in 21, 2 in 7 in 3, only 25 points.
A careful bar friend may find that in order to limit Lillard, Cole offered the signature BOX-1(Box-and-one) in the competition today, that is, one eye on quadruple tactics.
Box-1 is a hybrid defense that combines one-one-one defense and regional defense.
In Box-1, the four defensive players that make up the Box perform regional joint defense tactics, with two players near the bottom line and two players near freethrow line, the remaining “1” player carries out the man-to-man tactics, and the person he focuses on is usually the number one threat, the strongest player or the top player in the opponent’s array.
Of course, Box-1 tactics also have Diamond positions in a few times. At this time, Box-1 is also called Diamond (Diamond)-and-one.
In today’s game, cuminga is responsible for one-on-one targeting Lillard, while the other four Warriors are in the region and ready to defend.
Raptors use one eye to Tatum
When it comes to BOX-1, we have to mention Curry. As the top shooter and player in the league, Curry is often targeted by opponents by using the quadruple tactics of one eye. The most famous one is the 2019 finals.
At that time, under the circumstances of Durant’s absence, Clay’s absence and G6’s injury and retreat, the Raptors fully implemented the defensive strategy of staring at Curry’s quadruple, and all kinds of chasing and blocking and pulling.
Especially in the Second Battle of the series, Curry was trapped in the strong defensive pressure brought by Box-1, and did not score in the fourth quarter.
However, the biggest weakness of Box-1 tactics lies in its “Box”. When the attacking party passes the ball to the Box, the attacking party will either directly get the chance to shoot at close range, or this pass will instantly attract more than Box to assist in defense, so it is easy to hit Inside-out, and the opponent’s pitcher on the outside can get an undefended and easy shot.
In the following figure, Curry faced lorry’s anti-defense and made use of his strong personal ability to hit the bottom line. The defensive players were somewhat powerless at this time.
Another example is this ball. Curry makes use of his strong shooting ability, and he is not afraid to win the three-point long shot.
As well as this ball, Curry used the speed to break through quickly to attract the assistant defense to assist the shunxia’s dream-chasing.
Another cracking example:
In the warrior attack, Wikins sneaked from the left bottom line to the right, while Curry came to the left horn with his defender in BOX-1, and then one stuck two people to defend, block a large space for Wikins at 45 degrees on the left, and the three points of Wikins space will hit directly.
In short, the purpose of Box-1 (one eye on quadruple) tactics is to focus on one person, more than bag clip of the strongest players of opponents, and limit their strongest firepower, so as to achieve the goal of successful defense.
Sometimes a focus on the quadruple can not be used as the main defensive strategy, but in the face of teams with particularly outstanding personal abilities, sometimes it will play a miracle. This tactic can often disturb the rhythm of the stars and make the opponents feel some discomfort.
