"Walker, can you please help me organize the dining table? All the information is enough to put on the living room table. Thank you. We need some space to place the beef hot sauce! Dinner is ready!"

Lu Yiqi was opening the cabinet to clean up the tableware, and his back was facing the dining table, and he made a request. Walker was slightly restrained, "Reggie, coach, you can call me Reggie."

"Oh, sorry." Lu Yiqi chuckled, "I always think that this is still on the training ground. Reggie, Coretta; Reggie, right?"

Coretta did not continue to sit, put down the cornflakes in his hand and helped to pack them up; Walker accidentally glanced at the information in his hand from his eyes, and hesitated for a moment, but hesitated for a while, but he could not help himself, "Coach, are these legendary demonstrations of the defensive team's tactics?"

"Hmm?" Lu Yiqi turned his head and looked around, "Yes, defensive team tactics. Next defensive team tactics meeting, we need to take it out and discuss in detail." Lu Yiqi quickly brought the tableware over, and then he could see Coretta's eyes wide open and shocked look. Lu Yiqi pursed his lips and expressed his complaint righteously, "Hey, my family doesn't often have guests, so the tableware will be ready."

A porcelain plate, a microwave-heated box, and a pizza box, these are three so-called "trays"; two forks and a pair of chopsticks, then a disposable plastic spoon and a large aluminum spoon, which is called tableware, which has gone beyond the "simple" level.

Looking at Lu Yiqi who was seriously "tricking", Coretta squinted his eyes and burst into laughter, like a little fox.

Lu Yiqi was slightly embarrassed and took the microwave heating box over, made some beef hot sauce cooked by Mrs. Walker, and then placed it in front of Coretta. Then he pushed the beans, potatoes and corn flakes towards Coretta's position, "Little princess, you can eat now."

"By the way, there are vegetables, very, very important vegetables." Lu Yiqi turned around quickly, picked up the washed vegetables from the dishwasher, turned around and placed them on the table, looking at Corita's wrinkled face, and used all his strength to express his protest, but Lu Yiqi didn't buy it at all. "In the coach's home, no one can refuse vegetables. This is a hard rule. Everyone must abide by it, and the protest is invalid."

Then he turned to look at Walker, "You are the same." Lu Yiqi picked up the porcelain plate and filled Walker with some beef and spicy sauce. "Is these foods enough? If not enough, I can go to Mr. Alma next door to ask for some potatoes and beef. I know your appetite."

"Enough. Enough!" Walker nodded in a panic, then raised his hands and tried to take the plate from Lu Yiqi's hand. Only then did he realize that he was still grasping Lu Yiqi's tactical information. He couldn't help but laugh at Lu Yiqi with a dry smile.

Lu Yiqi directly placed the plate in front of Walker and then began to take care of himself.

"Coach, I have always had a question. Can you ask?" Walker sorted out his thoughts, and the tension tonight was a little relaxed a little, which gave him the courage to speak out the question that it was absolutely impossible to speak normally.

After getting Lu Yiqi's eyes affirmed, Walker became more and more confident, considering his tone, and slowly said, "In the past two games, our position has been significantly higher, but the overall defensive formation has not changed much. The tactics are still the same as coach Latimer, and the defensive effect has become more unstable. So, why should we do this?"

Originally, Walker thought Lu Yiqi might be angry - no coach likes players to question the correctness of the tactics, and no coach likes players to challenge their authority.

But Lu Yiqi just raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with great interest, "So, why do you think I want the linebacker to stand in a higher position?"

Reggie Walker, the linebacker of the Kansas State Wildcats, is 21 years old this year and is a senior. He is only of medium qualifications and talent. He is currently one of the main rotation players. His time is relatively stable on the court, but he still lacks outstanding performances - this is the defensive team card held by Latimer and Lu Yiqi. His strength is far from being outstanding, but he is just struggling near the average level.

According to Lu Yiqi's memory, he does not remember that there was a noteworthy linebacker named Reggie Walker in the league later.

But Lu Yiqi is willing to open up the possibility - a truly excellent coach is not to lead a group of talented players to the top of the championship; but to give full play to the role and value of every player in his hands, integrate talented players and blue-collar players to the maximum strength, and do his best to win.

"I'm not sure." Walker was still a little cautious. Even Latimer and Robert did not agree with Lu Yiqi's tactical philosophy. How could he, a small player, easily point fingers?

Lu Yiqi chuckled, "Don't worry, this is not a training ground or a conference room, you can speak freely. In fact, I hope you can also express your opinions in the conference room. Coaches are not omnipotent. What you see on the court is something we can't see."

What does the last sentence mean?

Walker didn't quite understand, but he could read the encouragement and affirmation in Lu Yiqi's eyes. "The linebacker is at the forefront. The coach hopes that we can put pressure on the offensive front line as much as possible to make the quarterback feel the pressure; but the key now is that we cannot accurately interpret the opponent's tactical intentions, and each time it is half a beat slowed down, which makes the linebacker's defensive task worsen. We are like headless flies, missing one and the other."

As a result, the mistakes increased and the defensive efficiency decreased.

"Half the right." Lu Yiqi smiled in his eyes. "The correct part is that the linebacker did not accurately read the opponent's tactical intentions, which made us always fall behind half a beat when defending - the front-line pressure should have been to seize the initiative for us, but now it has lost the originally few advantages and further fallen into a passive position."

"The wrong part is that the linebacker's defensive task has not been exacerbated." Lu Yiqi's words made Walker full of question marks. "Let's change the perspective, what is your first reaction when the quarterback announces the kickoff? Or, what is the defensive philosophy instilled by coach Latimer and Robert?"

"Keep the center of gravity stable." Walker blurted out.

"Bingo." Lu Yiqi snapped his fingers, "But my tactical philosophy is to step up. I need you to keep the idea of ​​stepping up at the moment of starting the ball. When the quarterback announces the kickoff, your center of gravity should be pressing forward and your footsteps should be staying in place, but the center of gravity needs to be prepared to rush forward at any time. This is the difference."
