What is the Lakers' triangle offense? Any allusions?

The Golden Sacred Clothing of the God of Basketball-Triangle Attack Tactical System!

Because I still love Jordan, the god of basketball who led me into the NBA world;

Because the Lakers have lost eight games in a row, the once proud prince is in a quagmire;

Because Phil Jackson may return to the Lakers, his demeanor will reappear on the court;

Because I haven't seen English for a long time, give yourself a reason to contact English today!

Today, I translated some attack methods of triangle attack, and the level is limited. I just hope to bring some happiness and inspiration to friends like Princeton who like basketball.

In Coach's Best Basketball published in 1962, there is a chapter called the triangle sideline series featured by former Kansas coach Tex Wen. Yes, this winter is the founder of Phil Jackson's nine-dynasty offensive tactics-"Old Winter", and the core of that chapter is the triangle attack.

In fact, the founder of triangle offense is Sam Barry, the coach of Winter University, who taught the players of Kansas State University the original concept of triangle offense. With the triangle attack, Winter's team reached the quarterfinals of NCAA eight times.

The triangle attack consists of three players, one side forms a triangle, and the other side is a "two-player game". Unlike those fixed routines, the attack is full of free movement. According to different defenses, there are various ways to deal with the triangle attack. According to Lao Dong's words, it is "look at it and then react".

But the triangle attack is not a complete free attack, it is a structural system that needs accurate spacing and positioning. Every player must know every position on the court. And we will never know all the tactical changes of the triangle attack.

First, create a triangle:

The triangle attack starts from the position of 1-2-2, and the interval between each player is 15 feet (about 4.5 meters). This distance can clear the opponent's defense, prevent double-teaming, help to pass the ball succinctly, and thus reduce the danger of being intercepted by the opponent.

There are many ways to form an attack triangle.

The ball can be passed to the small forward (3) by the point guard (1) and then cut into the bottom corner from the inside.

The ball can also be passed to the small forward (3) by the point guard (1) and then cut into the bottom corner from the outside.

The triangle offense also allows defenders to occupy a low position. In that case, there are several different ways to form an offensive triangle. For example, the point guard passes the ball to the small forward, and then the center (5) draws to the bottom corner, so that the offensive guard moves to the low position.

Another option is to get the offensive triangle by dribbling, just like the point guard dribbles to the position of the small forward in the picture below, and the small forward moves to the bottom corner, so that they form an offensive triangle with the center.

Second, the triangle offensive operations:

Once the attack triangle is established (let's take the point guard cutting into the bottom corner as an example), then a "front line" consisting of the ball (small forward), the attack axis (center) and the basket is formed. In this way, the opposing player who defends the center must stay between the basket and the center. He can't leave as long as that front exists.

Once this situation is formed, people can see a clear channel to pass the ball into the low post in the line, and the small forward can easily pass the ball into the line or "feed" it to the center.

Please look at the following two tactical maps. In order to prevent the ball from entering the inside or passing to the center, the defender of the center must stand on the same side of the center or go around the front. If he goes around the front, he loses his position between the basket and the center, and the center gets a high-profile ball.

Or pass the ball directly to the same side of the basket.

If we want to reflect the importance of passing and choosing in the triangle attack, it is estimated that we should practice on the tactical board all day. Compared with other attack tactics, triangle attack has countless ways to pass the ball into the "triangle point (attack axis)" Therefore, it will be very difficult to defend or destroy the triangle attack.

Proper spacing greatly increases the chances of holding the ball in the low position and creates one-on-one opportunities. Similarly, any player in the triangle offense can help his teammates get an open shot.

The following are other offensive options after catching the ball in the low post:

1, low pick and roll:

When the small forward passes the ball to the inside, he goes to cover the point guard and gives him a chance to receive the return from the center directly.

2, mobile phone shell:

After the small forward passes the ball into the inside, he moves to the other side to cover the power forward (4) and give him a chance to get rid of the defenders. At this time, the point guard can look for the back door of the bottom line breakthrough.

3. Pass the ball to the bottom corner:

This choice starts with the small forward passing the ball to the point guard at the bottom corner. After the ball was passed out, the small forward cut in under the cover of the center, and the point guard had the opportunity to pass the ball in from behind.

If the small forward gets rid of the defensive failure, then the point guard can use the cover of the center to dribble and lay up directly.

Third, in the triangle attack, the weak side also has many offensive opportunities.

1, high-profile back door:

If the center doesn't have a chance to catch the ball, the power forward can quickly move the ball to the side. If the opposing defender moves between the ball and the power forward to prevent the ball from being caught, the power forward can move to the basket by changing direction and then catch the high throw ball for layup.

2. Angular position:

Another offensive option is to pass the ball back to the attacking defender and then pass it to the weak elbow (the junction of the free throw arc and the free throw line). There are two options for this tactic: one is that the offensive defender uses the cover of the power forward to cut in; The other is that the point guard uses the double cover of the center and the small forward to move to the included angle position, and then receives the pass from the offensive guard to get an open shot.

3, cover the breakthrough:

This is the attack guard relying on the cover of power forward to dribble and lay up.

4. Attack the back door of the defender:

When the catch route of the offensive guard is blocked, the power forward moves quickly and receives the pass from the small forward, and the opposing offensive guard can get the "back door" opportunity to lay up directly. Of course, the passing quality of power forward is very important.

About triangle attack

As we all know, both the Lakers' triangle attack and the Kings' Princeton attack originated from the mobile attack.

But Phil Jackson's book The Bull Dynasty published in 1995 defines the following principles:

First of all, players must cut, pass and shoot to break through the defense.

Second, the offensive must cover the whole half of the country.

Third, the attack should have the principle of space.

Fourth, the attack should ensure that the player and the ball are the same goal (finding a gap or attacking the basket).

Five, every time shooting, other players should have offensive rebounds, and properly prevent fast break.

Sixth, every time the ball is ready to attack, it will create a gap that the defender can't take into account.

Seven, the attack should be designed according to the characteristics of the players.

For this reason, what did you see in the offense of Kings and Lakers? Vlade Divac or chris webber of Kings has the same ball as karl malone or O 'Neal of Lakers, right?

In addition, do you find that the Lakers' triangle tactics, since karl malone joined, often take Malone as the fulcrum (or apex), and occasionally let Kobe Bryant or O 'Neal carry out the tactics of this apex. Why? Is it because Malone is tall enough to pass the ball in the middle distance?

How about blocking and cutting tactics? Seeing that most players are running short-handed, empty-handed and empty-handed cover, thus creating a gap; But also, do players need more physical strength, otherwise, like the king, it is difficult to win because of lack of physical strength, slow movement, and low shooting percentage. So, is the blocking strategy really better? Not necessarily, right? In addition, the triangle tactics with unsmooth hands are useless! So, which tactic is better? There's no conclusion, is there? It's just the difference between whether the player performs thoroughly or not, right?

My personal understanding of the Lakers' triangle tactics is that a player (a) holds the ball at any point in the low position, middle position and high position, and then arranges a player (c) to form a triangle at 45 degrees with the side of the ball and the baseline (b); At this time, player (B) at 45 degrees will leave empty-handed and have a chance to catch the ball. If he doesn't have a chance, he will screen with another player (D) empty-handed and empty-handed, which will also create a gap.

Furthermore, because of the above-mentioned walking position, the defender will be guided away from the ball edge, so it is easy to create singles space with the ball edge after the clearance; Secondly, the bottom line player (C) can also use the empty-handed position again to attack with the top line player (A) of the triangle; Similarly, if the bottom line player catches the ball, he can further combine the inside and outside (inside out & outside in) group attack with the top player (A).

When none of the above can succeed, quickly transfer the ball to the other side (the weak side), make a cut-in pass shot, and make a cover move (pick &; Roll), ending in singles; Therefore, basically, the apex of the triangle attack should be able to pass the ball and play singles (see if O 'Neill and karl malone are just right? ), and then there must be an outside line, which is most obvious in bulls. And the weak receiver must have strong singles ability and so on.

From here, you can find that Kobe Bryant is also suitable as a weak player in singles. However, gary payton, whose perimeter is dim and often needs to attack with the ball and dribble, seems to be out of tune with triangle tactics? Is triangle tactics good? Not really, it depends on the player's ability, the situation of the day, whether the player is willing to move and cooperate, etc., right?

Look at the relevant explanations; Bob knight, a famous American university coach, explained that the mobile attack is not designed and planned for the players or the ball in advance, but only uses the players to pass the ball continuously, shift and cut in, cover and then cut out or cut in, thus creating a neutral attack tactic, which is called the mobile attack.

In addition, in the website of Motion Off, the explanation of blocking and cutting tactics is that the players are shifted, covered, the space distance is reasonable, and the flexible attack is called it; In particular, this paper emphasizes that blocking and cutting tactics are not a fixed way of playing in the transfer attack, but only a tactic of transferring players within a set of basic rules.

It shows that this is a bigger and more flexible attack, which usually effectively cracks any kind of defense, whether it is man-marking, regional or deliberate garbage defense; Also, because players can move freely and go to no man's land, once the team is familiar with the basic concepts, the coach can design some special styles or arbitrary attack methods in the team's attack to enhance the team's offensive ability, that is to say, the blocking and cutting tactics can be implemented at will.

Understand the original intention, it is clear that triangle tactics are derived from the spirit of blocking; Therefore, the triangle tactical theory is not a pick &; Roll, you call it a lifetime pick and roll), as well as space principle, singles ability, passing concepts and skills, empty-handed walking ability, empty-handed and empty-handed covering walking ability and concepts. , is the main idea of triangle.
