[請益] The "Odd Couple" combines for 15 treys
我的問題放在文末，如果不想看英文的人可以跳過XDD
One is a Midwestern white guy who is outgoing and has no tattoos. The other
is a laid-back black dude from inner-city New Jersey who has plenty of
tattoos.
While they are complete opposites in person, they share a bond from the
practice court to NBA arenas. For Steve Novak and J.R. Smith, they're all
about the 3-point shot -- the shot that completely derailed the Celtics
Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.
"They put on a shooting clinic," Tyson Chandler said.
After a close first quarter, with the Knicks up 32-26, Novak and Smith went
off in the second. While Smith had five 3-pointers, Novak had four. At the
buzzer, the Knicks had made a total of 11 3's -- the most ever in a second
quarter --- and they had 14 at halftime, which tied the record for most in a
half in NBA history. (The Bucks made that many against the Suns on March 28,
2006.)
By the end of the Knicks' 118-110 win, they had 19 3-pointers -- the
second-most in a game in franchise history. Novak had eight treys and Smith
had seven. And the "Odd Couple" had 25 points apiece.
"It was great," Novak said. "I got it going. Hitting those shots, it was
super-contagious. They were falling."
"It was a great feeling," Smith said. "We were catching the ball like it was
shooting practice and letting it go."
During his postgame press conference, Mike Woodson credited the team's pace
and pick-and-roll playmaking picking up for enabling Novak and Smith to get
more open looks.
"Our pick-and-roll offense was really working," Woodson said. "Our spacing
was great and guys were finding the right guys, and they were open. It was
just a total team effort."
Carmelo Anthony, especially, had a knack for finding guys, which has been a
rarity in his career. In fact, prior to tonight, he only had one previous
triple-double in his NBA career. On Feb. 5, 2007, he had 31 points, 10
rebounds and 10 assists against the Suns, as a member of the Denver Nuggets.
Against the Celtics on Tuesday night, he had 35 points, 12 rebounds and 10
assists.
Scouts around the league consider Anthony to be a guy who usually has tunnel
vision when he drives to the basket, not looking at his teammates, but only
at the rim. But on Tuesday he was making a conscious effort to dish it out,
and his ability to do that facilitated quicker ball movement around the
perimeter to Novak and Smith.
"We did a great job penetrating. We got to the middle and were able to find
guys," Smith said. "Melo did a great job of finding the open man. I mean,
when we get to the middle of the paint and we've got our heads up looking for
guys, and our shooters are hitting shots, we're going to be tough to beat."
After the game, Smith said one of the main reasons he and Novak were signed
by the Knicks -- Novak on Dec. 21, Smith on Feb. 17 -- was to feed off of
Anthony's double-teams. The team needed shooters in kick-out situations, and
Novak and Smith have obviously proven their value in that department.
Since they've been on the team together, they've challenged each other to be
better from beyond the arc. In fact, during practices they have 3-point
shooting contests. Who comes out on top? Novak.
"All the time," Smith said, laughing. "Even today. I was 7-for-10 and he was
8-for-10, so he won again. It's very competitive. Between he and I, I mean,
every other day is a, 'I'll take it, you take it.' It's tough, but it's fun.
It makes it even better in the games because we're actually on the same
team."
Smith went on to give the highest praise to his sidekick.
"He's the best 3-point shooter in our league, by far. I mean, it's not even
close," he said. "People are starting to catch on to it, but not fast
enough."
Smith said that he respects Novak so much as a shooter that he looks for him
first -- even over Anthony -- when he's bringing the ball up the court.
"To be honest with you, when I get the ball in the fast break, he's the first
person I'm trying to find, no matter who's out there or what's the scenario,"
Smith said. "If he's open, I'm trying to get him the ball as soon as
possible."
Novak knows it, too.
"If he doesn't have a shot, I feel like he's always looking for me," he said.
"For him to be able to shoot the ball like he can, and find guys, he's so
hard to guard."
Woodson loves the balance Novak and Smith have given the Knicks off the
bench. He said both of them put a lot of pressure on opposing teams. However,
he knows he has his work cut out for him, to help maintain what the duo has
been doing.
"[Novak] had a lot of great looks and he knocked them down," Woodson said.
"As we go along, those shots will become tougher because teams watch tape and
they're not going to leave him. So we've just got to find ways that we can
get him good looks and hope that he's open."
For now, life downtown is all good. At least for Smith, this has been the
most fun he's ever had in his career.
"Definitely," Smith said.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
基本上講的東西都差不多啦 所以我就不翻了...^^"
倒是JR提到一點，他說他跟Novak當初被簽進來的原因就是要協助Melo，當他被包夾時，
就可以有人投外線，迫使對手不緊縮防守。
事實之一：JR 跟 Novak 是有連結的。JR說當有Melo跟Novak在場上時，他老實說都先找
Novak。看他有沒有空檔，或幫他做檔拆。Novak也說他知道JR一直在找他XD
好啦 回歸正題 (現在才回歸會不會有人早就棄文了@@...囧)
我其實想問 像今天這樣的攻略，即讓Melo當point forward (PG+PF的變形體XD)
理論上應該是難逢敵手吧? 當然這有一大部分要看老天吃飯，畢竟如果外線某場突然
就爛掉，那也是沒轍了 (攤~
但是如果是Novak，加上狀況穩定的JR，有哪隊可以防的了嗎?@@
我是很"謙虛"的問這題，並不是問我們這樣就有問鼎冠軍的能力...
當然今天超賽也莫名其妙的、感覺蠻慌亂的，迅速包夾Melo，讓外線的人都大開。
(剛重讀了一遍，發現其實我問錯問題了...Orz)
我其實想問的是 要怎麼防守像今天尼克這樣的攻勢。
當然會舉例熱火或甚至公牛，也是因為他們是最有可能在第一輪就碰上的隊伍。
所以像今天這樣的攻勢打熱火會有機會嗎?
另一點是，今天也看到了，打的是D'An的檔拆，連防守都是D'An等級...XD
所以這是暗示著如果用這樣的lineup，就是要犧牲防守嗎?
有沒有高手可解答...感謝了!
--------------------------------------------------------
不過我剛突然想到解答了，哈^^"
我的想法是對熱火行不通 因為他們的防守很大取決於他們的速度。
而再不濟好了，他們也可以不包夾Melo，直接1-on-1的防守，如果被過就算了。
重點是3>1，Melo到最後也會像上次第四節一樣體力不支。
而說到老賽，如果今天有雷槍，可能也不至於需要到打爛仗來硬撐。甚至會有可能是不
一樣的結局。
所以簡而言之 這招再來一次是行不通的XD
結果我自問自答了......
不過還是感謝大家的討論啦~
