Build a Dream Dynasty

The referee came out to speak, and the Nets temporarily returned to a normal offensive and defensive state. After the conflict, Howard, who was suffocated after the conflict, ravaged the Nets' inside line with dunks after a pick-and-roll in the next two offenses, making up for it. I just made 1 of 4 free throws. However, the good times didn't last long, and the referee's blown whistle was a real fire. If the Nets were just showing their regular season status and not letting the Lakers go, then at this moment, the Nets are showing The attitude of the New York Knicks came to fight the Lakers recklessly.

To be honest, no matter the fans at the scene or the coaching staff of the Nets, even the players of the Nets did not expect that the old and civil strife-ridden Lakers broke out astonishing fighting power in a desperate situation. In the second half of the second quarter, Fernandez succeeded in four consecutive singles. Even facing the double-teaming of Fernandez and Leonard, he was able to forcibly hit a fallback jumper. The black mamba's eyes were full of domineering. Artest and Howard are more desperate on the defensive end, and are also willing to pick and roll and run on the offensive end. This team, which was originally looked down upon by Jiang Mingliang, when the fans need them to show their best performance It can be said that if their civil strife can end earlier, or if the team is not so superstitious about veterans, they don't need to end up in a desperate situation with the Nets now.

At 52:50, 22 minutes into the game, Kobe had already scored 21 points. The veteran was completely exhausting his physical strength to push the team to keep pace with the Nets.

"This kind of fast-paced offense and defense, Kobe can't support the whole game. If Kobe continues to maintain his current fighting spirit, I think we can win." Sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, Jiang Mingliang can be said to be full of confidence.

But what if Kobe was a little more sensible?

At the beginning of the second half, the Nets took the lead in attacking, Curry held the ball, and the other players of the Nets immediately pulled away. Leonard, on the left, Fernandez in the right corner, and West moves to pick and roll Curry, helping Curry get rid of Nash. Curry dribbled the ball to the left, Gasol hurriedly switched defenses to keep up, West stood still one step outside the free throw line, Nash didn't dare to chase and defend, but just blocked the passing line of Curry and West. Leonard ran from the bottom corner to the upper line, and Lopez had no ball to cover, and Kobe's pursuit was very fast. But Curry didn't make a pass. This running position was just to attract defense. After Howard was led away, no one helped Gasol. Curry paused slightly while holding the ball frame at 45 degrees, and dribbled the ball from his crotch to the baseline with his left hand. However, Curry's shot speed was obviously faster than Gasol's imagination, and he made a steady throw.

The Lakers attacked, and Howard covered Kobe on the left side. After Lopez switched defenses, Kobe scored the ball in time and turned into Fernandez defending Howard. , but caused Fernandez's fourth foul.

The biggest victim of the Nets foul caused by the Lakers in the first half was Fernandez. No, the main shooting guard of the Nets had just appeared in the third quarter and ended up in a foul crisis.

However, although Ray Allen's appearance has weakened the Nets' defense, his threat on the perimeter is greater than that of Fernandez, who has the attributes of a knife, and Ray Allen's running on the perimeter is also smarter than Fernandez. The Lakers seem to be difficult to deal with Kobe and Artest's mobile wings.

Kobe's energy was restrained, and Curry and West's pick-and-roll tore apart the Lakers' defense again. This time, in the face of Howard's supplementary defense, Curry did not force it, and gave Lopez the ball to complete the dunk. , widened the point difference to 5 points.

Kobe singled out Leonard and missed a 45-degree emergency stop jump shot. Howard grabbed the offensive rebound, but did not pass the ball to the outside line. Instead, he forced a layup. Still did not score the ball, but this time , The referee's whistle did not sound.

The Nets attacked, Curry hit the road frame, and gave the ball to the side. He used the pick-and-roll to get rid of Kobe's Ray Allen. Howard hurriedly switched defenses. To Lopez inside. Facing Gasol, Lopez was very tough, leaning on the opponent to turn around in the middle, licking the basket and hitting the basket.

Although the Nets failed to bring the rhythm of the game up, Kobe didn't know whether it was due to lack of physical strength or intentionally handing over the direction of the main attack to the inside, but Howard couldn't bear this responsibility, and the point difference between the two teams was slowly widening. .

Stevens' team has changed from weak to strong, and the personnel have changed one after another, but there is one characteristic that has been maintained very well. Everyone knows what they should do on the court, and they have a clear distinction between primary and secondary. On the surface, it seems that the stars are strong, but in fact, the core players can hold on. If the role players don't mess around, the offense will be smooth.

And the Lakers, even during the two consecutive championships, the tactical discipline is not good. It is normal to dig holes for yourself in the first quarter, and slowly fill the holes in the second and third quarters by relying on the advantages of strength. Bass's willingness to spend money is also king. Even now, such a "not so good" Lakers team has to pay tens of millions of luxury taxes to the league every year.

In the second half, the Lakers stepped up their double-teaming of Curry, and finally curbed Curry's performance. Ray Allen and Leonard each missed the basket twice with long shots, which is not a coffin for the Lakers. However, the 83:69 point difference still made the Lakers quite desperate, and it was not easy to come back in the last quarter.

The large score behind stimulated Kobe's nerves. During the break, the director also cut the camera to the Lakers' bench, only to see Kobe yelling loudly at his teammates on the sidelines, leaving no room for Nash, Howard and others , Nash turned his face away as if he didn't hear it, while Howard's mouth was constantly chanting. Although he couldn't hear anything, there was a high probability that it was something unconvinced.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Kobe, who had not had much rest, continued to stay on the court. He used his feet in the low post to educate Barnes in the first attack. However, Kobe obviously had additional movements when he turned around this time. , an elbow hit Barnes on the right side of the ribs, and the introverted Barnes just rubbed the wound a little without expressing much.

The Nets served the ball, and Reggie Jackson faced Kobe's extremely strong oppressive defense as soon as he received the ball. Kobe led the defense all the way and successfully pressed Reggie Jackson to the sideline just as Reggie Jackson was about to pass halftime. Reggie Jackson had no choice but to pass The ball was broken by Kobe by jumping up, and then he grabbed the basketball and launched a fast break, and succeeded in gliding and dunking.

From the perspective of fans, Kobe, who is old and strong, helped the Lakers narrow the point difference. For players on the court, Kobe is suspected of fouling every offense and defense, but the referee's degree of partiality is relatively acceptable. endured.

The Nets served again, and this time Fernandez stayed in the backcourt to help Reggie Jackson get the ball out, easily breaking Kobe's lead defense.
