Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

The Mavericks trailed by 16 points in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Nelson had a sudden idea and went to the big game. The situation of the Mavericks was immediately revitalized. He pulled Li Shengli from the mid-to-long distance with his hot hands, saved Nowitzki, and moved Nowitzki. It broke, but Li Shengli was not panicking at all while guarding the basket. Phil Jackson on the sidelines saw the lead retreat for a while and called a timeout.

The combination of Nowitzki + Dazhi will definitely not be the Mavericks' regular combination.

This game was just a whim of old Nelson. The basis for the point-chasing effect was Da Zhi's hot touch. So from Phil Jackson's point of view... the solution is very simple. Just attack whoever caused this situation. .

So, the Lakers after the timeout.

Kobe returned to the court, Horry played power forward, Artest played small forward, Green and Fox both took a rest, and with sufficient offensive firepower and his own defense to target, Phil Jackson thought... if The defensive effect met his expectations. Some of the Mavericks' shots may have been moved to the outside, so in order to ensure nothing went wrong, Crotty also played.

Horry is not that strong, but he still has more physical energy than Green and can follow up more timely on defense.

After returning to the court after the timeout, this substitution directly forced Da Zhi's touch to return to the normal line and above. The Mavericks' inside arrangement was obviously to eat the touch and give up offensive rebounds. When Da Zhi's touch cooled down, it counted as passing the ball. mistakes, with an average of less than one shot per round in a short period of time.

But not the Lakers.

Li Shengli was so relaxed that he just looked for offensive rebounds, and then handed it to Kobe to shoot randomly. Not to mention that Kobe's hand felt hot, even if it felt cold, it was no problem. A few offensive rebounds were enough to crush the Mavericks, and Big The variables that Zhi brought to the game were quickly eliminated. The Lakers led by another 3 points in the second quarter, totaling 19 points in the first half.

…

It's halftime.

The game went smoothly and the rings were collected at midfield. The Lakers' team members from last season were happy and took advantage of the intermission to interact with the fans. The Mavericks were not too disappointed. Even Nelson was a little happy to see Da Zhi.

Although it is still the old saying that a player cannot be comprehensively evaluated by the data and performance of a single game, but Nelson does know... In fact, many players in the league who do not have a strong sense of presence are not unable to play, but they need the right opportunities and the right players. Not everyone in the tactical lineup is so versatile and suitable for various forms of tactics.

Da Zhi got a good opportunity in this game.

For Nelson, cultivating Nowitzki is a must, and having Dazhi can solve the internal rotation problem to a certain extent and improve the Mavericks' internal strength throughout the game.

But for now...it's not too early to make a conclusion as to how high Da Zhi's priority should be. Old Nelson still wants to continue to take a look at Da Zhi's performance in the next few games, but in any case Da Zhi is eager to The opportunity was still obtained.

…

After halftime, the atmosphere at Staples Center was still warm.

The third quarter still belongs to the Lakers. The internal and external combination of Li Shengli and Kobe Bryant is already the top force in the league at this stage, and the entire third quarter is purely about focusing on core capabilities. The Lakers took advantage of the victory to pursue the victory, and the Mavericks were at a comprehensive disadvantage.

Sometimes, tactics really can't save the day.

Finley on the Mavericks side was entangled by Crotty and his efficiency dropped sharply; Nowitzki still needs time to grow; Nash has not reached his peak as a point guard; and the younger Mavericks have not accumulated and grown up. During the time, there was no tactical soil at all.

As a result, the Lakers still led in the third quarter.

After only playing half a quarter, they reached a 25-point lead and entered garbage time early.

Phil Jackson waved his hand, completely ignoring whether it was reasonable or not, and directly let a group of substitutes fight, using the triangle tactic that he had the whole team practice for a long time; and Old Nelson was also very decisive, maybe he didn't even think about winning, and directly Turning on the training mode, Da Zhi got less than 7 minutes after playing 8 minutes in the first half.

…

"Lee, Kobe, have you two seen this?" Phil Jackson was still very proud as he stared at the court.

The Lakers are not currently playing a pure main lineup, but a very organized substitute lineup. Even if it is a substitute lineup, even if there are not many strong attack points on the field, they still rely on the triangle system to suppress the Mavericks.

"Maybe tonight's opponent cannot be used as a typical example, but if we encounter a strong team ranked highly, what do you think it will be like?"

"What will happen?" Kobe asked, touching his head.

"Damn, be serious!" Jackson came up again and said: "Of course it will be difficult to beat, especially you, Lee! The new 5-second post-up rule has been implemented this season. You can't see it against Bradley and the others. What, but if your isolation is limited, then you should expect the results. Playing against some of your kids, O'Neal, Mourning, Mutombo, and even your former teammate Ben Wallace, what do you think? Can we still maintain the level of suppression we have today?”

Phil Jackson thought to himself... The purpose of mentioning these players who are very strong on the defensive end is to make Li Shengli say "no", and then take the opportunity to promote his own tactical system. But the problem is that Li Shengli thought about it very seriously. Said: "Yes, it's not too difficult!"

Are you sure you can?

Isn’t it too difficult to ride a horse?

Jackson felt that he had never felt so uncomfortable when he met Jordan, and was choked to the point of speechlessness. Li Shengli and Kobe also became serious when they saw that Jackson was so angry and uncomfortable.

"Okay, coach, don't worry." Li Shengli patted Jackson's thigh and said, "Kobe and I are not thorns in the side. We still know how to play tactics, but we can't do it today and there's nothing we can do about it." ah."

"Why? Why did your consciousness immediately rise?"

"Ahem... I've always been very conscious!"

"Okay, I believe it. Play well in the next few games." Phil Jackson looked at the players next to him and lowered his voice and said: "I didn't come and the Lakers won three consecutive championships. As soon as I came, the Lakers stopped. You Guess how embarrassed I would be? So if nothing else, my only goal this season is to win the championship."

"I know, so do we."

"Well, then I wish us success in defending our title!"

…

After a few words of conversation, everyone’s focus returned to the game.

There is basically no suspense about winning or losing, but what really makes teams across the league feel sick after the game is... Even if the Lakers dismantle Barkley, Rodman, and Ben, they are still terrible this season, and they can't win every game. The Bulls collapsed and lost by 28 points, even coming off the bench.

118:90!

The Mavericks are not strong at this stage, but the Lakers' 28-point lead is exaggerated!

Li Shengli and Kobe Bryant scored 51 points together, while Artest also scored 12 points as a substitute. What surprised the entire league and domestic fans the most was... Da Zhi played 15 minutes in this game and scored 18 points. , 5 rebounds, and 3 assists. This data puts Da Zhi at the forefront of all rookies and all debuts in this class.
