Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

The Kings are definitely the favorites to win the championship this season, and this time in the Western Conference Finals... the Kings' Sleep Train home court continued its previous enthusiasm. Both sides were preparing for the game, and before the game even started, there were bursts of shouts of 'Kings championship' outside. Continue to bombard the Lakers' away locker room.

In fact, the further into the playoffs, the more common this situation becomes, so the Lakers don't feel much at all except that this place is a bit noisy. Of course, the locker room is still a bit small and shabby. , but there is nothing we can do about it. After all, the market in Sacramento is not big, and this arena has been used for almost 15 years. The home team’s room is not necessarily luxurious, let alone the visiting team’s locker room, which is far from being comparable to Staples. compared to.

At this moment, Li Shengli and Kobe were sitting in the locker room preparing.

Do you really want to say that the Kings have a chance to break out of the West?

Li Shengli is the first one not to believe this evil, because he only has the Celtics and O'Neal in his eyes. If he really wants to choose someone who can defeat his team, other than Jordan, it can only be O'Neal, and today's King cannot, even if No matter how well this team plays in the regular season, it won't be good.

Do you have to say that Adelman's tactical system is eye-catching?

But looking back, no matter how good the tactics are, they only amplify the performance of the players and support the players in the system.

Li Shengli is very clear about the difference between the Lakers and the Kings, and Phil Jackson basically said it clearly... Whether it is the triangle offense or Princeton, no matter how loud the tactics are, they just emphasize regional cooperation and give players on the scene action It’s just a matter of giving clear instructions, strengthening execution in daily training, and getting used to this routine.

In fact, the essence of both is the same, both are expansions of basic blocking tactics.

The real difference is... the tactics that use various methods to create opportunities. The Kings choose to support the entire team, while the Lakers choose to support a strong side triangle.

Although it seems that the Kings play as a team, there is actually no guarantee that everyone can score smoothly, because no matter how good the opportunity is, it may not be a 100% hit. Add in other average opportunities, and the overall hit rate can be more than half. It's already reaching the sky.

However, this is the difference between superstars and ordinary players.

Under normal circumstances, when taking most of the same opportunities, superstars are more efficient than ordinary players. Phil Jackson feels that his tactical advantage is to concentrate his shots and let the core players who are easier to hit play, rather than Adelman's choice. fully rolled out.

Everyone understands that tactics are not high or low, only whether they are applicable or not.

As for the validity of the comparison, Phil Jackson couldn't help but laugh... because the championships won by the Lakers over the years are proof that it is nothing for the Kings to only have one regular season number one, and what makes Phil Jackson feel at ease the most It’s Li Shengli.

Over the years, it has been as stable, reliable, durable and explosive as ever!

If we really want to put Li Shengli in the Kings' lineup, I guess Adelman won't bother to develop too many tactical systems, because one person is just a set of tactics, and there is no need to think about other things.

Isn’t it more practical to infinitely blast the opponent’s insiders than all other tactics?

As for the so-called tactics, what you want...isn't it high-efficiency shots after breaking through the defense?

Tough luck!

Phil Jackson now feels that Adelman himself is unlucky.

Even if the Lakers were defeated by the Kings in the regular season, the playoffs are a completely different world. Other teams may have players who hit hard in the regular season and are submissive in the playoffs, but this does not exist for the Lakers.

Unlike the Kings' full-scale expansion, after the Lakers' tactics support Li Shengli's performance, the target selection is obviously more specific and more risky than the Kings. However, the Lakers are not afraid, because there may not be anyone more stable than Li Shengli, not even O'Neal.

Can hit from mid-range to the basket.

His footwork and confrontation are already hard to come by, and even his free throws are top-notch.

In addition to violent and forceful play with almost no shortcomings...the ability to support teammates has also been the ceiling of centers in the past. When the triangle tactic changes and truly supports Li Shengli with all his strength, even Phil Jackson himself may not know what will happen... strange things?

…

Waiting until before the game to appear.

You don’t need to guess about the Lakers’ starting lineup. In addition to the two core players Li Shengli and Kobe Bryant, there are also Samaki, Artest, and Fisher. The Kings’ starting lineup is also similar...

After a regular season, almost everything is fixed.

Center Divac, power forward Webber, Peja and two guards Doug Christie and Mike Bibby form a fast and mobile backcourt. It is this starting five that has repeatedly frustrated the Lakers this season. .

Maybe it's because they have the upper hand in the regular season games, or maybe this game is at the Kings' home court.

When the Lakers side... Li Shengli led people to the court, the players on the Kings side looked relaxed, but Divac, who was used by Adelman as an offensive starting point, was a little bit annoyed because the Kings also played in the playoffs last year. The Lakers, because he was beaten by Crotty for diving, and was put on a stretcher in just 20 seconds, and he remembered all this on Li Shengli's head.

It is impossible to say that I don’t hold grudges.

Divac wants to destroy the Lakers this season.

As for the rematch this time, Crotty, who is like a madman on horseback, is no longer there. This makes Divac feel very lucky, but he does not care about others including Li Shengli. He probably understands... Even if he is beaten, it will It's worth it, because you can replace one of the Lakers' main players, which is very profitable.

Got this idea?

Divac became a center in the first tier of the league in one fell swoop, because in this era of Li Shengli, what you need to squeeze into the first tier is courage. Whoever is brave will be a first-rate center. And after seeing Li Shengli leading people on the court to warm up... ...He discussed it with a few teammates, staring at the Lakers generals and pointing.

…

"Boss, tell me... is that son of a bitch looking at us?" Artest ran to midfield and said this while waiting for the jump ball, because Divac was like a passerby, sneaking fingers. The pointers were really annoying, so he didn't lower his voice at all, just to speak to Divac. When Divac heard this... his face turned livid instantly, and the fool also understood that Artest was talking about him. .

"Damn you bastard, are you brave enough to curse again?"

"What's wrong with you just scolding you? If you dare to point randomly, I'll destroy your hand on that finger!"

"Trash, you trash, how can you show off your words? Come on!"

"This is what you said. If I see that you are not happy, I will beat you so hard that you won't even have the chance to kneel down and apologize!"

Neither side expected this to happen before the game even started, and Divac didn't bother to pay attention to Artest after he spat a few trash-talking words. He directly said to Li Shengli face to face: "Li, do you think you should let your people Is there any point in threatening me like this?"

"Oh, Verratti, who am I trying to threaten by riding on a horse? Why do I need to keep shouting that I will do it?"

"Really, then this is really funny. Is this how the championships in Los Angeles were won?" Divac still ignored Artest, looked at Li Shengli again and said, "Haha, let me be honest. Don't be angry, you Lakers are not good at anything else, but... you are better at beating people than playing ball, so I feel insulted when I play with you."

"Huh?" Li Shengli was stunned for a moment.

To be honest, it's been a long time since anyone stood opposite him so fiercely, and he put the entire Lakers under the collar. But the problem is... no player with good character has any objection to the Lakers. And everyone who is sanctioned basically has a right to die.

Take Bowen from the previous round, or even Sprewell or the Pistons who are farther away.

When have you seen these people being beaten and the entire league condemning the Lakers for them?

Once again, when did the players in the league who got dirty tricks at the hands of these people not clap their hands with joy?

As for the Lakers, it can't be said that they are noble in eliminating harm for the people, but it is definitely... they can accept both overt and covert actions. They only adhere to one iron rule. If you suffer a loss, you must fight back. You can't lose in games or fights. .

Be the worst bully, hit the most vicious villain, dare to be the first for the alliance.

…

"Divac." Li Shengli motioned Artest to shut up and looked at Divac.

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

"What I want to say...well, maybe there is nothing, but I don't feel good about you throwing dirty water on us like this. So just watch it for a while, playing basketball is my main job, and I can make you useful on the court at any time." No, and don’t think of any dirty tricks, because I have a side job, and I don’t need to explain my side job to you, right?”

"You ride on the horse..."

"No, Divac, don't say that, Lee, we don't mean any harm."

Divac was extremely angry and wanted to fight back a few more words, but the problem was that Weber, who was watching Li Shengli's cold face, was walking on thin ice and quickly smoothed things over.

"Okay, as long as there is no malice."

"Okay, okay, then let's have a good game!"

Weber was overjoyed and felt that Li Shengli had given him face and his attitude had softened a lot. However... as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Li Shengli say something else.

"Well, we can compete, but..."

"But according to what Ron said, he has to...kneel down and finish this fight first! As for the next few games, it depends on his attitude!"
