This is our instructional tonight let's sit down the court now bucks assistant coach Jim Boylan with Johnny Mac can only guys. Okay Greg thanks very much we are record talk about when you play San Antonio where courts and I talked about this -- Tony before the game. It's all about Tony Parker can you contain him -- I don't think anyone can that a few times tonight you did both fast break transition where Parker and half court as well.
Look at the deadly combination and a great point guard Tony Parker and they have great three point shooting Tim Duncan is not quite the player he used to be although tonight. I think yeah I think he went. You the fountain of youth and looked darn good to -- on this on this video right here Tony gets the ball you start pushing he's got two guys. But running with him so Carlos job right now is to stop the ball which does very well. On the first pass Jack Wilson. That guy and tries to shut him down and then that gives our defense a chance to flow back into the lane get to the strong side of the floor and hopefully sorted out. Mean you may have to pick -- a different player than you would normally be assigned to but that's part of transition defense and on occasion we did pretty good but. You know I saw tonight and I was an offensive game that was -- the defense and really. -- have a lot to say about what was going on although for us. Down the stretch were able to -- a couple of stops but. The main thing is is.
Is once that ball crosses over half court and if Tony has the ball and -- on defense John's on defense with me in John's played behind me like the B Jackson was. My first job as the top man is to stop the basketball -- out here with the with Sony and I'll make sure that I contain him somehow slow him now he's coming happy full board now it's tough assignment. Especially with the quickness that some of these guards out -- and ball handling ability. I would do my best to stop them and John's job's going to be. To take that first pass like you saw Stevie Jackson do. The -- that that's made up I got the ball right here in -- my first pass Tony be run in the way I got stopped. I passed it to Tony and John closes out right here it plays this guy and now -- just this one pass from here. So there. Gives the defense a chance. For the rest of the defenders kind of flow back into the action right here and shut down the -- shut down the driving lanes and so forth and as you saw that clip that's what we were able to do on that particular play and -- sonic have also conducted an unbelievable job because he was actually running on that wing. We're hearing got back in the position Denver recovered right the first pass was. So I -- to -- there's turf what are -- go from that side only to decide just get the first -- always tell our guys you know when it's when it's that kind of a break of three on two break to get in some sort attendance of Stevie was able to read that. They got behind Carlos -- was in position when that passes made. He was able closed out right there and get them back under control which you know tonight we you know. It was an offensive show tonight and that Tony Parker put on quite an offense Angela that he sometimes we've played against great point guard like that.
Yeah it's going. You're you're looking yourself you say what can we do what you -- things we tried to do was once he gave the ball up not let him get back. Even that's difficult yeah fast and he's -- he's moving and his teammates are looking forward without managing hopefully in the lineup this tonight. That that's obviously about their best players out of the lineup right now and so that -- Tony ball almost all of 90% of the time limits him play two man game songs that I could arguably it will see a lot more that this isn't there a lot of -- best guards --
