I am so Accurate
Chapter 468 Zhu V587! (First update!)
Durant and netizens are at odds with each other, but the Lakers are really under a lot of pressure from the management to the players.
Especially head coach Phil Jackson, he was a bit frustrated with Carlisle's shark-cutting tactics.
Before the training session started that day, he and his assistants talked in the office about how to deal with it.
But in the end, no one came up with any good ideas.
They all tried if they couldn't get O'Neal at the last minute, but it didn't work.
Is there no other way?
have.
If a multiple-choice question is wrong no matter how you choose it, then the best way is not to let it appear.
Used in a game between two teams, it is to defeat the Wizards before the last moment.
But the problem is that the two teams are too close in strength, and the Lakers can't do it.
If you continue to do what you did in past competitions, then this question will be unsolvable.
When the conversation came to nothing, Jackson asked someone to call Sun Hao over again.
"If the game is handed to you in the end, can you win Tianwang Mountain?"
Jackson finally chose the same choice he made in the third game.
Because it is difficult for O'Neal's free throws to suddenly improve, but Sun Hao may do better.
81 points in a single game during the regular season and 62 points in three quarters. These all show that Sun Hao's current performance of 28.8 points per game in the finals is not his limit.
Sun Hao also understood what Jackson meant.
"As long as there's room on the floor."
He then spoke.
"There will be."
Jackson nodded.
When it came to the training session, Jackson focused on three-point training.
And after training, he re-adjusted the team's rotation.
That adjustment lets the players know that Game 5 will be very different from the past.
Tied 2 to 2, G5 Tianwangshan.
The Lakers don't have Jordan, but they do have Buss.
On game day, Buss came to the training facility. Although he was not as eloquent as Jordan, his appearance was a huge morale boost for the Lakers.
You must know that Old Bass's health is much worse now than before.
That night, the Staples Center was fully occupied, and there were still a large number of fans holding high cheering slogans such as "Go Lakers," "Lakers Championship," "Sun, it's time!" and other cheering slogans.
The Battle of Tianwang Mountain was a life-and-death battle for both sides.
By the time the Lakers players appeared on the scene, cheers were already ringing from the sidelines.
When I saw the full spirit of the Lakers, the decibel level of the cheers instantly soared.
This time, they think the Lakers can really win!
But on the Wizards side, the Wizards players are also in high spirits.
After winning two away games in a row, now is the time when the Wizards' morale is at its highest.
During the warm-up before the game, Tracy McGrady also made every shot, showing his excellent touch and competitive state.
The warm-up is over and the starting lineups of the two teams are announced one after another.
The Wizards' lineup remains unchanged, but the Lakers have made considerable substitution adjustments.
Sun Hao, Finley, Ariza, Horry, O'Neal.
Two of the five starters were replaced. This substantial adjustment also attracted discussion from Breen and Mark Jackson in the commentary box.
"Is this because of the poor form of Gary Payton and Antoine Walker the past two games?"
Bryn spoke.
"Actually, their state throughout the finals was quite bad."
Mark Jackson's words made Brin laugh.
His new partner is really interesting.
"Or the Lakers just want to get back to the feeling they had last year when they won the championship."
Mark Jackson's next words made Brin dumbfounded.
However, it is an explanation.
When the Lakers won the championship last year, although Malone was the starter, Horry spent a lot of time partnering with the other four.
"Let's see what happens."
Brynn said with a smile.
If Carlisle's shark-cutting tactic is considered a big move, he would also like to see if Phil Jackson also uses a big move.
While the two were chatting, the game on the field had already begun.
However, after playing for less than half a quarter, the two found that the Lakers' style of play did not change much from the past four games.
What Horry and Finley did is similar to what Payton and Walker did before.
The Lakers still played O'Neal in the first half of the quarter, and Sun Hao after O'Neal came off the court.
Even the situation of the game was no different from the past few games, with the two teams playing evenly.
"Maybe we're just overthinking it."
Mark Jackson shook his head and said.
Brin did not nod. Judging from his more than 20 years of experience as a commentator, nothing in the game happens without reason.
About ten minutes into this quarter, both sides began to make large-scale substitutions.
The Wizards still have the same rotation as before, but the Lakers did not use Christie as before, but Damon Jones!
This substitution is really... quite unexpected!
You must know that Jones' playing time in the playoffs was basically garbage time, and he never played a minute in the finals!
Now he is being substituted during the regular rotation, which is really unexpected and even bold.
"Or does Jackson think he has a chance to win and wants to give Jones a chance to have his name engraved on a championship ring?"
Mark Jackson's joke caused Brin to laugh again.
According to the rules, only players who have played in the finals and have made statistical contributions can get the opportunity to have their name engraved on the championship ring.
What Jackson said... there's nothing wrong with it!
The lineups on both sides of the court include Wizards Tyronn Lue, Alexander, Tracy McGrady, Hayes, and Uncle Mu.
Lakers Payton, Jones, Ariza, Walker, Mourning.
The first offense after the substitution was launched by the Lakers.
The Lakers actually designed a no-ball tactic for Jones as soon as they came up!
This not only stunned Brin and Mark Jackson, but also Carlisle.
Designing a play for a player coming off the bench?
This is... what operation?
The Lakers had a good lineup on the field, and Jones successfully ran out of opportunities, but he took a shot out of pocket.
"Dang!"
Out of the basket!
Uncle Mu got the defensive rebound and the Wizards advanced to the frontcourt. Tracy McGrady singled out Ariza and made a pull-up shot.
"Uh-huh!"
The crisp sound of the basketball hitting the net caused a burst of cheers from the audience.
The scene showed Phil Jackson on the sidelines. The "Zen Master" looked at the court thoughtfully, but made no next move.
And if the Lakers advance to the frontcourt, they will still use Jones' off-ball tactics!
Jones catches the ball and shoots again.
"Dang!"
He keeps hitting the iron!
On the stage of the finals, the pressure is too high for ordinary players to bear.
Fortunately, Mourning grabbed the offensive rebound and passed it to Walker on the other side. Walker took the ball and made a quick layup and scored 2 points.
McGrady missed a three-pointer on his final attack.
After the first quarter, the score on the court was 23 to 27, with the Wizards leading.
In the second quarter, both sides continued to make substitutions and adjustments.
For the Wizards, Lue, Hamilton, Alexander, Hayes, and Uncle Mu.
For the Lakers, Payton, Finley, Zhu Fangyu, Walker, Mourning.
Zhu Fangyu!
"what.the.Fxck!"
At this time, Mark Jackson was so shocked that he lost his sense of humor.
"Phil's a little out of sorts. It's not like the guy I know."
After sighing, Mark Jackson continued.
Brin on the side also looked very surprised, but he did not express his position immediately. He always felt that the matter was not that simple.
In the second quarter, the Lakers took the lead, and similar to when Jones first came on the court, they were also designing off-ball tactics for Zhu Fangyu.
It was at this time that Brin seemed to notice something.
Phil Jackson seems to be looking for who among the Lakers' shooters has a better touch?
"Uh-huh!"
After Zhu Fangyu moved without the ball, he made a three-pointer after receiving the ball!
Don't underestimate Zhu Ba's big heart ability.
In history, when he faced James and Wade in the 2008 Olympics, he was unreasonable.
The ball went in, and Phil Jackson clenched his fist unconsciously.
After all, Breen is experienced, and his guess is right. What Jackson is doing is to try out which of the Lakers' shooters has a better touch tonight.
Sun Hao said he needed space, so he tried hard to create one!
Hamilton's shot was interfered by Payton and missed, and Mourning grabbed a defensive rebound.
The Lakers advanced to the frontcourt and continued to play off-ball tactics for Zhu Fangyu.
The Wizards' defense clearly expanded on this side.
It's not that the Wizards overreacted, but that the two teams are close in strength. If the shooter's hand is warmed up, it will be difficult to recover the opened score.
Zhu Fangyu hit the frame this time.
However, after the Wizards' defense expanded, Mourning grabbed an offensive rebound under the basket and passed it to Walker who cut in. Walker made a layup and scored 2 points!
28 to 27!
The Lakers overtook the score!
The scene burst into cheers.
Phil Jackson's always solemn expression also relaxed a little.
He felt that he had found the person he was looking for.
Of course, Carlisle didn't know what Jackson was going to do at this time.
And although Zhu Fangyu feels good, his ability is far from enough to change the situation on the court.
The Lakers have gained a certain advantage in the substitute transition period, and the Lakers also took advantage of the opportunity to expand this advantage.
By the end of halftime, the Lakers led the Wizards by 9 points, 51-42.
This is already a big difference for both sides.
Sun Hao scored 21 points at halftime, which was higher than in previous games.
But in the third quarter, the Wizards, led by Yao Mai, began to chase points again.
During this period of time, McGrady showed his fiery touch from the pre-game warm-up. Facing Ariza's defense, he hit consecutive pull-up jumpers. Even the Lakers' double-team failed to prevent him from scoring.
As a result, at the end of the third quarter, the Wizards tied the score.
Tie points, stalemate, and alternating leads have become the main theme of this year's finals.
But what not many people noticed is that Phil Jackson made subtle adjustments to the rotation.
When the game entered the decisive moment again, Carlisle was about to try the shark-cutting tactic again, when he suddenly realized what Jackson was going to do.
The Wizards still have the starting lineup, but the Lakers: Sun Hao, Ariza, Zhu Fangyu, Horry, Mourning!
This lineup looks incredible at first glance.
But if you take a closer look at tonight's game, you will find that, except for Mourning and Sun Hao, the remaining three are the pitchers with the best feel tonight!
Phil Jackson, facing Carlisle's shark-cutting tactics, is preparing to use Sun Hao to challenge the MM combination alone!
No, more preparedly, it should be said that Sun Hao singled out the entire Wizards team!
When the fans realized this, they felt their blood boiling inexplicably.
This is typical heroism!
After the timeout, the Lakers attack first.
Sun Hao took the ball to the frontcourt, and everyone else spread their wings.
The cheers at the scene were completely unstoppable.
Carlisle waved his hand, and the Wizards triple-teamed Sun Hao as they did in the past.
But just when the double-team was about to arrive, Sun Hao passed the ball to Zhu Fangyu who was in the open position.
At this time, whether the Lakers' shooter can make the ball will be extremely critical.
Because once the shot fails, the Wizards' double-teaming will be as crazy as in the third game.
Zhu Fangyu caught the ball and took action quickly without hesitation.
A person who dares to raise his hand to fight with the center on the court must have a strong heart.
The more confident you are, the more you can invest.
"Uh-huh!"
There was a crisp sound.
Zhu Fangyu's three-pointer, the knife fell with his hand!
So arrogant!
The Staples Center exploded instantly.
Zhu Fangyu scored a three-pointer in the first half and the first in the second half.
But these two three-pointers are all goals with a heart of gold!
After scoring the goal, Zhu Fangyu also waved his fist excitedly.
Maddie in front of him instinctively ducked.
He didn't want to be like Bogut, who took several games off after being beaten before coming back.
91 to 88.
This three-pointer did not have that big an impact on the score, but it was more impressive in terms of momentum.
And what's even more interesting is the Lakers' defensive setup.
In one-on-one defense, Sun Hao defends Hamilton, Ariza defends McGrady, and Zhu Fangyu defends Nelson.
Yao Ming has a clear mind and reaches out to direct on the court.
He put Nelson in the pick-and-roll.
The Lakers didn't dare to change, so Nelson stopped and made a jump shot after the pick-and-roll.
"Uh-huh!"
The basketball hit the net.
Nelson's shot is there too!
This round exposed Zhu Fangyu's defensive weaknesses. His speed around the pick-and-roll was obviously slow.
But Jackson didn't say anything on the sidelines.
The reason why he let Zhu Fangyu be at this point in time shows that he has accepted Zhu Fangyu's weakness.
You must know that if Zhu Fangyu didn't have these weaknesses, he would have already been in the rotation of the Lakers.
Sun Hao held the ball in the frontcourt, and the Wizards continued to double-team.
Sun Hao then distributed the ball to Zhu Fangyu.
Zhu Fangyu got the ball, and the Wizards' weak side helped defend.
But Zhu Fangyu voted again!
Is Zhu Fangyu floating?
Or did Liang Jingru give Zhu Fangyu the courage to play?
neither!
This is Phil Jackson's request!
With Zhu Fangyu's ability, if he stops the ball, whether he chooses to pass or dribble, there is a high probability that he will lose the ball.
So Jackson only has one request. If Sun Hao passes the ball to him, then he only has to do one thing, which is to shoot!
In fact, Jackson's request was not only for Zhu Fangyu, but also for the three shooters!
Some people may ask, what if the defense is switched?
This depends on Sun Hao's judgment.
Three-person double-teaming means that two people must be open.
If Sun Hao passes the ball to the person with a better chance, that person will have a greater chance of making a shot.
When Zhu Fangyu took action, he was focused on nothing but the basket.
The ball was released and streaked through the air in a high, spinning parabola.
"Uh-huh!"
There was another crisp sound.
Zhu Fangyu hit three consecutive points!
On the stage of the finals!
Zhu V587!
The Lakers bench instantly erupted.
These two three-pointers are crucial to the situation of the game!
Carlisle reached out and called a timeout.
"The championship ring name is fixed!"
Sun Hao found Zhu Fangyu and gave him a high-five, his expression joyful and not forgetting to tease him.
Zhu Fangyu also received a warm welcome from his teammates when he came off the field.
This is definitely the highlight of his basketball career.
After the timeout came back, the Wizards scored a goal from Yao Ming in the paint.
The Lakers advanced to the frontcourt and Sun Hao held the ball again, but the Wizards did not dare to double-team.
This is the greatest significance of Zhu Fangyu's two three-pointers just now.
"it's time!"
Breen in the commentary box raised the decibel level.
He was the first to understand Phil Jackson's tactical arrangements, and he also knew that Zhu Fangyu's performance was a good foreshadowing.
But whether the Lakers can really win the game depends on Sun Hao's next performance!
