Carlisle: In the NBA or when coaches shout tactics every round, I completely delegated power to Kidd
Recently, Pacers head coach Carlisle participated in Caitlin Cooper's program.
Host: "Today I want to talk to the audience about what 'random offense' is - if it can be defined. Whether it is the Mavericks in 2011, the Indiana Pacers in 2025, or other teams you have coached, what is the scene when your team plays 'random offense'?"
Carlisle: "You asked in depth, thank you for this question, but I have to go back a long time ago. Back in 2008 when I took over the Mavericks' position, the first year We started a tough start. In those days, both coaches and players were still in a stage where they were relying heavily on tactical calls. That season was about December, or even January, and I suddenly realized that maybe it was time to talk to Kidd - he was the starting point guard at the time and was still an excellent player at that time - and wanted him to take over the task of tactical calls and make the game more exciting. "
" Because he was too good at organizing offense and launching offensives, he could always mobilize the right teammates at the right time. This can be done by eye contact and tone change, and as a leader on the court, he has a natural aura. At that time, we were still watching game videos and tactical videos on DVD. I had a DVD recording all our tactics, although not many, but some. I asked him, 'Are you interested in doing this? It's almost the team's offense. I might talk to you about tactics during the pause, or draw some tactics occasionally, but I mainly want you to dominate the team, so do it your own way. '"
"He said, 'Okay, I'm happy to do that.' So I said, 'Look, this is the DVD that records our tactics and codes. Anyway, you're familiar with these, so keep them as references, if needed.' Since then, our season has undergone a huge change, completely different. At first, we won a lower winning rate than 50%, and around December we returned to 50% - it sounds a bit like what we did in the Pacers in the last two years - and then we ended up strongly, finally getting 50 wins and winning the first round of the playoffs."
