Chapter 107 The playoffs are just different (please support)

The Lakers continued to attack through pick-and-rolls, and now it was McMillan's turn to have a headache.

The Lakers had just changed their lineup and replaced Kobe. The Sonics failed to take the opportunity to widen the point difference. McMillan already had an ominous premonition. Unexpectedly, Ke Yan actually came up with a "Tianji horse racing" trick and persuaded Kobe to play a pick-and-roll.

, which is tantamount to giving your own superior horse a stimulant.

This is not to say that the "pick-and-roll tactic" is unsolvable. The main reason is that the timing is sudden and it hits the Sonics' pain point.

As shown in the two offenses just now, Jerome James switched to guard Kobe, and no one on the Sonics could match Anderson who came down to the penalty area; and if there was no switch, Kobe could easily break into the basket and score.

The SuperSonics offense missed, and the Lakers once again launched a quick counterattack. Kobe took the lead, suppressing Lewis and Ray Allen in the penalty area and then passed to Finley who came in from the back row. The latter raised his hand and scored another three-pointer. The Lakers played

A wave of 7:0 attacks directly overtook the score. (17:21)

When returning to defense, Kobe and Finley clapped their hands, both smiling.

When the SuperSonics attacked, Daniels went around the screen. The Lakers didn't switch defenses, so they let Atkins chase. He defended guards like Nash and Iverson pretty well. He was blinded when he encountered guards who mainly played without the ball. He was often surrounded by opponents.

He can't find North. Instead of missing someone when switching defenses, it's better to let him follow the defense in a single thread, at least to be able to use his dexterity.

In a sense, this Sonics team has the prototype of the future Warriors team, but it lacks a dream-chasing Green. If Diaw is brought over to be an insider in the organization and carefully crafted, maybe something can be done.

Lewis has average vision, but is stronger in singles. He pulled up one from mid-range and hit! 19 to 21.

Odom and Kobe Bryant cooperated hand-to-hand. Radmanovic switched defense a little slower. Kobe caught the ball and made a jumper. The ball drew a perfect arc and went into the net. 19 to 23.

The Lakers followed up in time, and the Sonics' off-ball movement once again failed. Ray Allen caught the ball and then ran a pick-and-roll but was caught up by Kobe Bryant. Due to the interference, his shooting hand was not adjusted in place and he was not sure of his shooting hand.'

The rebound was obtained by Odom.

The Lakers suppressed the Sonics. Chinese Rockets fans scolded Van Gundy even more fiercely. They ignored the easy-to-deal with the Sonics and had to fight the Mavericks. How easy would it be to watch the Lakers beat the Sonics?

A layman only sees the excitement, but an expert sees the door. Ke Yan himself really doesn’t think that the Lakers can suppress the Sonics and the Rockets can easily solve it. But basketball is not a chess game, and there are still mutually reinforcing forces.

The Lakers were able to suppress the SuperSonics in the game. First of all, they had an excellent reserve of wing personnel. The team changed into a small lineup, allowing Barnes and even Caron Butler to take the fourth position to deal with Radmanovic.

There is no problem. The team's mobility is superior, and it is more difficult for the Sonics to find mobile phone opportunities when running without the ball.

Secondly, the Lakers' two main insiders, Odom and Anderson, are relatively flexible in their respective positions. If it is really a big defense but a small one, facing Ray Allen with average dynamic talents, Odom and Anderson can at least delay it.

.

Lacking technically comprehensive inside players and physically strong outside wings, the Sonics have no trump card that can defeat the Lakers and can only pin their hopes on Ray Allen.

In the second half of the first quarter, the Sonics' offensive touch declined. The Sonics, who couldn't make a goal, were like a beast without fangs. Although they still had sharp teeth, the threat was reduced after all. The Lakers played steadily and took an 8-point lead.

Advantages.(24:32)

The playoffs are also a time when each team "fucks the main force." Everyone wants the team's strongest player to be on the court for as long as possible, and Ke Yan is no exception. At the beginning of the second quarter, Kobe, Butler, and Anderson all

They all stayed on the court, and with the lineup of House and Barnes, the Lakers wanted to eat up the SuperSonics in one go.

Monty Williams looked at Ke Yan. He felt that this rotation strategy was a bit extreme. The increase in the playing time of the main players will definitely affect the subsequent games.

"Maybe Kimi's purpose is to steal a victory in Seattle?" Monty Williams speculated.

If Ke Yan could hear Monty Williams's voice, he would definitely reply: "Fuck you, I want both of them!"

The game continues on the court.

McMillan also increased the playing time of the main players, which surprised Ke Yan. He likes to disrupt the rotation time. McMillan has already studied it, and now the two sides are sorting out the players again!

Ridnour punished the Lakers from the three-point line as soon as he came up, and the score was as close as 5 points.

This floor-playing point guard has a very clear idea of ​​​​playing and a very stable style of play. His shortcoming is that he is a common problem with floor-playing and his physical fitness is not good.

Looking back, Butler broke through the basket and caused a foul on Nick Collison. McMillan paid too much attention to the players' tactical qualities and ignored that physical fitness is also a part of basketball. He is the "brutal power forward" with the best physical fitness on the team.

Wilcox was not reused by him, and it was really difficult for Reggie Evans and Nick Collison to play high-end games.

The SuperSonics continued to play the pick-and-roll, but the Lakers had a perfect rhythm in defending the pick-and-roll this round. Kobe made timely replacement to catch Ridnour, and blocked the opponent's ball. When Ridnour forced the ball, the team's defense

The rotation was in place, and Barnes cut the ball out of Evans' hands, but due to his weak dribbling ability, he failed to initiate a fast break and had to leave it to Kobe to reorganize the positional attack.

Butler caught the ball in the frontcourt and was shaken twice by Lewis' defense. The latter was not fooled at all and remained as steady as a rock in front of him.

Kobe rushed over from the right baseline and caught the ball.

Ray Allen was right behind him, and Kobe didn't stop walking. Taking advantage of the momentum, he dribbled inside and Collison stepped forward again and committed two fouls.

Faced with an absolute disadvantage in confrontation, the Sonics could only slow down the Lakers' scoring by fouling, and the disadvantage became more and more obvious. McMillan's pre-match preparations were very thorough, but his on-the-spot planning seemed a bit awkward compared to Ke Yan.

Flexible enough.

Kobe made two free throws, and the point difference came to 9 points.

But the Sonics can continue to be a dark horse this season until the playoffs, and they are not a vegetarian. Ray Allen caught the ball around the screen, took a deep breath, and shot with an open hand.

"brush!"

Another hollow into the net! Another three-pointer!

There was no advantage on the field, but the Sonics performed very tenaciously. The Lakers had a certain advantage on the field, but they were unable to widen the point difference because they "won't score when they gain the upper hand".

It can only be said that the playoffs are different!

Kobe is not good at guarding a scoring guard who can run like crazy. If you ask him to drag his current weight and run with Ray Allen for a whole game, it is a bit difficult to think about it.

After serving and advancing quickly, the Lakers were already in the SuperSonics' half in a matter of seconds. Kobe was still controlling the ball, waving his hands to direct the movements of his teammates, as if he were a commander, with ease.

When Butler ran to the right three-point arc, the ball had already been passed in front of him. Butler turned sideways to catch the ball, then took a step back in succession, and then suddenly accelerated inward with force.

Lewis was obviously confused by Butler's step back. When he reacted, Butler had already dodged to his side. Lewis immediately stepped over.

Butler reluctantly took two steps forward, and then just when everyone thought he was about to take action, he suddenly passed the ball with a low hand.

Barnes stood firmly outside the 45-degree three-point line on the left, caught the ball, and then easily got up and shot without being marked.

"Cang!" The ball hit the outer ring of the basket and bounced out.

At the end of the season, I was practicing three-pointers from other angles, but so far, the results are not ideal. Barnes shrugged and retreated quickly.

(I don’t feel very good today. I only have so much saved so far. Please forgive me)
