Ginobili sank two straight three-pointers. Skiles had already noticed; he didn't need Chen Yu to point it out.
He walked over to the sideline and yelled at Ben Gordon, pointing at Ginobili to indicate that he needed to watch him more closely.
At that moment, Chen Yu remembered what this tactic was.
George Karl's "Ham" tactic.
Chen Yu's team was in the consulting business, so they often collected vast amounts of data. In the realm of tactics, for instance, they didn't just collect and organize strategies from the NBA, but also from the NCAA and even high school.
And if Chen Yu remembered correctly, the play unfolding before him was called exactly that.
During the "Three Musketeers" era of the Bucks, George Karl designed a plethora of plays for Ray Allen.
One of those plays involved the point guard driving into the low post to draw the defense, then dishing the ball to Ray Allen in the weak-side corner to create a shot for him.
