Kobe's dunk boosted the morale of the Lakers. The team launched a 13:2 attack wave in 3 minutes, widening the point difference to 15 points.

Van Gundy was forced to call a timeout and replaced McGrady after the timeout.

Instead, it was Key Yan who played "Tianji Horse Racing" with Van Gundy at this time. House, Kobe, Butler, and Odom went off, Atkins, Barnes, Cook, and Diop came on, and the Lakers returned to their regular routine.

Formation, with Barnes responsible for guarding Tracy McGrady.

Barnes is 201cm tall and weighs 102 kilograms. He is not inferior in confrontation. He has plenty of physical strength and high defensive enthusiasm. He plays life-threatening on the court. Such a defender is just right to deal with Tracy McGrady.

Continuous shaking failed to break through Barnes' defense. McGrady stretched out his hand to invite Uncle Huo to pull out the pick-and-roll. After getting out of the space, he hit a two-pointer from the right arc. (29:42)

Looking back, Atkins used Brian Cook to set up a pick-and-roll, went to the basket and scored the ball, returning the favor.

"With the Mosaic team without Yao Ming, interior defense is also a big problem." Kenny Smith shook his head and said, "Mutombo is okay for a short period of time, but it is really difficult to place hope on this veteran for a long time."
Mutombo's official birth age is 66 years, but in fact, no one can prove the authenticity of his age. Age is the natural enemy of athletes. When you reach a certain age, no matter how good your self-discipline is and how caring you are about maintenance,

Everyone will feel inadequate on the court, especially as the season progresses, and they will find that it becomes more and more difficult to recover after exercise, and it is easy to hold their knees and gasp for breath on the sidelines.

He was signed to serve as a water dispenser keeper. He usually trains with the team as a sparring partner. When he is injured, he just comes out to help. He is directly included in the regular rotation and averages 15 minutes per game. Ke Yan even feels that the Mosaic team is "abusing the elderly."

.

On the court, McGrady continued to suppress Barnes, relying on his unsolvable first step to get past Barnes. A domineering one-handed chop was a response to Kobe's dunk just now.

Looking back, Finley missed his shot after the pick-and-roll. He is now more of an off-ball shooter, and his offense with the ball has indeed declined sharply.

The Mosaic team began to chase points under the leadership of McGrady. However, when the Lakers deliberately slowed down the pace and fought hard on defense, the scoring efficiency was not high. Sura and Padgett were not able to seize opportunities. The Lakers boldly double-teamed McGrady.

, causing some trouble for his offense.

This is also where Van Gundy is criticized by fans. Ke Yan has only been with the Lakers for a long time, and he has already found useful role players like Anderson, Barnes, and House, while Mosaic has few useful substitutes!

Until the official timeout, the Lakers still enjoyed a 10-point lead. The Lakers replaced their main players again. Ke Yan called everyone together and said: "Very good, the situation on the court is very favorable to us now."

"Next, we can't relax our double-teaming on Yao Ming and try to consume him as much as possible. The Mosaic team only has two points. Once they are all shot behind, there will be no bullets!"

"Caron, McGrady, I leave it to you, don't let him break into the basket easily and force him to take long-range shots. Lamar, you are responsible for providing protection for Caron. If McGrady breaks into the penalty area, you can double attack if necessary. Then Kobe, you will

Take care of Bowen or Juwan Howard."

"Alston just prevents his three-pointers. If they want to try to break through, then let him try."

Kobe and everyone nodded again and again. Under Ke Yan's defensive arrangement, they were confident of winning tonight's game.

After returning from the timeout, the game continued. Yao Ming came up and scored strongly under the basket against the defense of Anderson and Odom. Just after he came on the stage, Yao Ming's physical strength was at full capacity. (39:47)

Kobe controlled the ball and roamed at the top of the arc, trying to find breakthrough opportunities. His teammates kept interspersed and moved, changing the Mosaic team's defensive formation.

Kobe's left foot was extended several times in a row, which made Jim Jackson, who was guarding him, nervous. He suddenly took a step back and quickly raised his body's center of gravity. Jackson's heart tightened, and his body involuntarily jumped up to block the shot.

But what made him despair was that even after his body had risen into the air, Kobe's feet were still firmly on the floor. Facing Jackson's landing body, Kobe jumped decisively, pressing Jackson's body against his right hand.

In front of him, the ball was quickly transferred to his left hand and he threw it before his body lost balance.

"Shua!"

"Di"

Two voices sounded at the same time. Facing the Mosaic team's counterattack, Kobe responded with a beautiful 3 1, showing his domineering power. (39:51)

What's even worse is that Jim Jackson committed three fouls, and Van Gundy no longer dared to take him off the field.

Yao Ming blocked Anderson in the paint, preventing him from going around to the front, and successfully caught the ball. Then he continued to exert force, pushed Anderson away, and forced a hook. However, he received interference from Odom and failed to hit. Odom took off continuously.

Protect the rebounds and switch offense and defense immediately.

It doesn't matter whether he can find an opportunity this time. He forces Yao Ming to speed up and run back to the half court. The strategic significance of tossing Yao Ming is achieved. Ke Yan has done a lot of design in tactical details. Many seemingly useless details are actually in the same place.

Every little bit affects the game itself.

With three fouls on his back, Jackson was a little constrained on the defensive end and did not dare to take action. Caron Butler forced his way into the basket, and Yao Ming was fouled on defense.

Van Gundy had no choice but to replace Jackson with Wesley. He felt that the team was obviously suppressed and he was unable to break free.

Usually, when a head coach has this idea, it means that the team is really in a very passive situation. This is also true. The Lakers' fast-paced offensive and defensive transitions make it difficult for the Mosaic team to deal with it, and they are unable to position themselves.

In a battle, one of Kobe and Butler would always face the shorter Wesley, and they would have the absolute upper hand in singles.

In contrast, the Mosaic team could only rely on the power of the Yao-Mai combination to play piecemeal, and the game entered a 2-on-5 situation. In this case, Yao Ming and McGrady seemed to be somewhat lacking.

The Lakers continued to widen the point difference, and at halftime, the team led by 19 points. (44:63)

For Van Gundy's team, a game that is 19 points behind can basically admit defeat. His team is more than tenacious but lacks changes, especially in the field of on-the-spot adjustments, which is a typical hindsight.

In the third quarter of the game, Mosaic significantly enhanced the offense of outside players. Alston, McGrady, and Jackson took turns, but the shooting rate was...

After the half-time break, the Lakers players' touch seemed to have cooled down, and their shots were all in vain.

In the first three minutes of the third quarter, the Mosaic team only scored one goal, and the Lakers failed to score a goal. The game fell into a stalemate for a while.

Van Gundy was scratching his head anxiously on the sidelines. He finally waited for the Lakers' touch to decline, but his own players failed to live up to expectations. Seeing that his shots ended in strikes again and again, he jumped anxiously off the court. He really wanted to rush up and shoot it himself.

meaning.

The leading Lakers are wasting capital, and it will take time for the Mosaic team to recover the score!

At the critical moment, the superstar helps Van Gundy stay alive!

Yao Ming's clever point shot helped Jackson hit an easy shot from beyond the three-point line. Toyota Center suddenly burst into cheers, and all the fans cheered. Finally, the point difference was narrowed to 14 points. (49:63)

When the Lakers attacked, Odom and Kobe played a pass-and-cut game. Kobe attacked the frame from close range and took the shot under Yao Ming's interference. The ball circled the basket twice but still didn't go in. He was so angry that he cursed directly.

Taking the first step to pick off the rebound, Yao Ming made a long pass. At this time, in the Lakers' half, only McGrady and Butler were left running wildly to avoid being tied at 2-1. Butler stopped in time and watched helplessly.

With McGrady rising into the air from inside the free throw line, he completed a dunk! (51:63)

After a 7:0 spurt, the Mosaic team approached the score. Ke Yan decisively called a timeout, replaced Butler with Finley, and pushed Kobe to the small forward position.
