Chapter 254: I feel like I can fight for another hour, but I wont get used to the reality. Its very likely that you will only have one drop left!
In the second quarter of the game, Jackson, the "old 6" coach, started to cause trouble again, playing the "cheating" card and sending out Farmar, Vujacic, Walton, Odom and Turiaf.
For the Magic, Stan Van Gundy is the king of rotation, and the two main players, Howard and Turkoglu, continue to play and fight.
Replaced with Brian Cook, Maurice Evans and Kenyon Dooling.
You call Odom's rotation a "hole". Isn't that unreasonable?
Jackson obviously made the right choice. Odom is most suitable to lead the bench lineup. In this way, Odom's all-round strength can reduce the dimension and attack the opponent, just like a superstar in the rotation, chopping up melons and vegetables.
The truth is correct, but unfortunately the Magic have two core players.
Where should Odom's dimension reduction attack be directed?
Beat Howard?
You don't have to fight!
Basketball is not about counting or calculating.
Moreover, Jackson's "trap" was not only reflected in the large-scale rotation of the rotation lineup, but also in the fact that more than 3 minutes of the second quarter were played. Stan Van Gundy used the essence of Pat Riley and began to control the main force.
Lewis and Nelson Jr. had been replaced on the court, and Howard and Turkoglu did not take a rest. They played out the cards of the main lineup, but Jackson did not respond, as if he was sleeping.
This is the real trap. If Kobe Bryant, who is in hot form, and Su Bei, who is solid, are left to eat dust on the bench, is there any way to stop them?
And there are laws?
The core player of the Magic team is not the "director" and will give the Lakers face.
"Howard crushed Turiaf, and the small beast met the large monster.
The difference in level is not just a little bit, Odom and Wharton shrunk to open the World of Warcraft version.
Warcraft is not stupid, he threw the basketball out of the perimeter, Turkoglu raised his hand and made a three-point jumper..."
Swish——!
Yes, Turkoglu's three-pointer.
The assist from Howard played an ordinary internal and external tactics.
And this is just the beginning.
Why did Jackson replace Bynum and rotate in Turiaf? It's because a small shark is not enough in front of the World of Warcraft, and he has to fight from wheel to wheel.
Turiaf's physical talent is also at the level of a beast, but it is of no use. It is like being suppressed by blood. He cannot stand up to Howard at all.
The Lakers can only continue to pile people into the penalty area, but the Magic's tactical framework is "shoot from one star to four".
I failed the test in the first quarter... No, I failed. I will definitely take the test in the second quarter...
Letting the Magic's perimeter bullets fly a little longer would be fatal.
After all, the Magic's outside players rely on shooting. Are you going to bet on the strength of their jobs?
This defensive strategy itself is outrageous!
Do you still need to bet? If he doesn’t hold up in the first quarter, he will definitely hold up in the second quarter. Boss Wang knocks on the blackboard and crosses the key points.
I didn’t take the test in the past two years, but I will definitely take the test this year. This is a truth. I don’t know if Lu Xun said it, but it is definitely unbreakable.
"Lewis received Turkoglu's pass from the left corner and made a complete pass.
Three-point jump shot...
Uh-huh...!
Finally got it!
An All-Star-level shooter with a 100 million contract and the firepower, his shooting is naturally flawless..."
…
"The Lakers' defense is a little messy, and the Magic's three perimeter players are firing on all cylinders, which makes them lose sight of one thing.
The tacit understanding of attacking Howard was not as free and decisive as before, and Turiaf simply couldn't withstand it.
After being crushed in, Howard used his shoulder to clear a path, and all the way up the penalty area, it was a one-handed slam.
Bang-dang——!
Howard played like a three-good student, a student cadre... no, he looked like the best center in the league, he played like a superstar center."
…
The Magic started the second quarter with a 14-5 shock wave, instantly reducing the point difference between the two sides to 2 points.
At this moment, almost 6 minutes into the second quarter, Jackson, a cheater, switched Kobe, Su Bei, Fisher and Bynum to the defense again.
You know, Kobe was in superb form in the first quarter, scoring 19 points in a single quarter. This fiery state was kept on the bench for nearly 6 minutes, and his magical touch was gone.
"Kobe came on the court, received a pass from Fisher, and against Evans, a former substitute, Kobe shot.
Just like in the first quarter, Blind Ji threw everything around..."
Bang-dang——!
Kobe's three-point shot was solid.
fine!
In the first quarter, Kobe's shooting touch was not instantaneous from the beginning and may need some flirting time.
It still takes time to adjust your emotions and adapt.
So, in the next round, after halftime, Fisher still handed the shot to Kobe.
Facing Evans, a transparent little guy who had been with the Lakers for more than a year, Kobe felt like he was sure of him.
After all, in normal training, when Kobe beat Evans, it was like a child's father beating his child every time, and he could hit him no matter what.
After Kobe discovered that his three-point shooting was not feeling good, he immediately changed his style of play and used a more stable offensive method to score points.
"After Kobe stepped into a triple-threat stance, he passed Evans like he was walking through the streets in the early morning.
Evans worked very hard, fought and retreated, and wanted to prove something in front of Kobe.
Kobe paused for a moment, turned his back, and lost Evans' defensive focus. In front of Kobe, Evans' defense was useless.
Turn around, pull the ball up, Kobe raises his hand and shoots a two-point fadeaway jumper..."
Kobe's movements are smooth and his shooting posture is beautiful and picturesque. In terms of process, Kobe has achieved the ultimate, but it's a pity...
Bang-dang——!
Kobe has entered a four-leg triathlon mode.
His consecutive attacks were sent.
Obviously, Evans' defense was useless and Kobe got in. However, if he didn't shoot the ball and was just messing around on the outside, Kobe couldn't get any points!
When the Magic returned, Nelson Jr. controlled the ball to the frontcourt and immediately handed the basketball to Howard.
"Howard caught the ball, bumped into Bynum with his shoulder, and then, in the circle, used a hook-like shot to send the basketball into the basket..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Swish——!
The Magic's offense is unstoppable.
Su Bei was keeping an eye on Turkoglu, but Howard started killing him, but nothing happened.
"In the Lakers' offense, when Fisher pushed the ball to the frontcourt, it was still Kobe.
He shot the three-pointer without any hesitation, and Evans' defense didn't even respond at all, and it was still nothing..."
Bang-dang——!
Kobe's three-pointers were solid again.
On the contrary, the Magic's offense still scored easily.
"Howard continued to take the ball and attack the low post. Odom and Su Bei shrank and flanked Howard. The basketball was passed to Turkoglu. Su Bei turned back to defend. Turkoglu took a look and immediately passed the ball.
A no-look pass..."
boom--!
The basketball bounced up after hitting the floor and flew into the hands of Lewis in the left three-point corner.
Catch the ball, jump up, aim, raise your hand and shoot a three-point jump shot...
Odom rushed out to interfere, but it was still too late.
Lewis's shot was as smooth as if he had eaten Dove chocolate, without any unnecessary movement.
Swish——!
The knife fell from his hand, and Lewis' three-pointer hit the net.
In the 06/07 season, Lewis averaged 22 points per game, which is a lot of water. However, his shooting is still something. This season, he joined the Magic and averaged 18 points per game. His shooting skills are still superb.
.
No problem, not only with James, the shooting space for outside shooters is as wide as the ocean. The effect of Howard's outside shooting cannot be said to be similar, it can only be said to be exactly the same.
The Magic's offensive firepower was full, with three-pointers from the outside and air raids from the inside, which made Stan Van Gundy tremble with excitement outside the court.
This, this, this, this is the vision of victory he wants to see, this is the Magic team he wants to create as the strongest team.
One star shooting tactic!
‘One Star’ and ‘Four Shots’ complement each other and complement each other internally and externally, making the opponent so exhausted that they have to worry about the head and not the buttocks. Then, both the head and the buttocks are taken care of by the opponent, and they are all taken care of together!
Dunks and three-pointers, Stan Van Gundy created a star-studded shooting, which theoretically achieved the effect and efficiency of magic theory.
To be honest, in the first quarter of the Lakers' game, Jackson also showed the strongest vision that Jackson had waited for the Lakers for three years, allowing Kobe's offense to set off the most brilliant fireworks.
However, Jackson didn't expect it, nor did his teammates, and even Kobe didn't realize that the most gorgeous fireworks would come to fruition, but it would be so short-lived, it wouldn't last long!
The most painful thing for the Lakers is that the Lakers players all thought that Kobe could play for five more minutes. Kobe felt that he could play for another hour.
It's just a pity that reality will not be used to you as you think, and you will most likely only have a drop left.
After Kobe was tough, he became soft. After he softened, the only thing left was to make iron.
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
…
Kobe's offense was like an angel in the first quarter, but turned into a devil in the second quarter. He had to kill 6, but in the end, he only knocked down 1.
The shooting rate of 1-for-6 caught the Lakers off guard. You must know that the Lakers' triangle offensive tactics are all for Kobe.
However, Kobe's "just this" performance made it difficult for the Lakers' offense to get tough.
In the second quarter of the game, the Lakers were beaten to a pulp throughout the entire quarter, and the Magic had a shock wave of 39 to 25.
At the end of the first half, the score was 63 to 60. The Magic came from 11 points behind and achieved a counterattack, allowing the Lakers to escape to the locker room to rest with a 3-point deficit.
Lewis made 3 of 4 shots, all three-pointers, plus 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 11 points and 4 rebounds in a single quarter.
Howard made 4 of 5 shots from the field and 2 of 4 from the free throw line. He scored 10 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists in a single quarter, playing the role of the league's top center without straining his hips.
In other words, Jackson is known as the "Zen Master". He likes to "sleep" during games and is good at cultivating and using all kinds of role players.
However, this time he encountered the ungrateful Stan Van Gundy and hit a brick wall. The water in this rotation was too deep. Jackson suddenly lost control and exposed his cheating attributes.
There is a saying that Jackson had a "long-term plan", but he was overthrown by the Magic.
Rumor has it that in high school, Kobe Bryant liked to play restrained in the first half, letting the team fall behind, and then use his strength in the second half to turn the tide and polish his skills and reputation in the face of headwinds.
Jackson and Kobe have good ideas, but they are easy to get slapped in the face. Their opponents do not want to play supporting roles and let others manipulate them. When they resist, they cannot control themselves, and it is easy for the people who set them up to suffer backlash.
This was the case in this game. In the second quarter, Jackson and Kobe were the legendary crouching dragons. It was not unfair for the Lakers to fall behind.
After 15 minutes of rest and recuperation, the game came back for the second half and the lineups of both teams came into action.
When the third quarter started, the Magic had the offensive ball.
"Nelson took the ball to the frontcourt and played a pick-and-roll tactic with Turkoglu.
The basketball fell into Turkoglu's hands, and when he ran into Fisher in a misplaced position, Turkoglu attempted a three-point jumper..."
Bang-dang——!
If you try it, you will die. The truth does not deceive me.
When an opportunity comes up, there is nothing you can do about it if you don't hit it.
"The basketball was snatched by Odom.
Howard was held up by Bynum, a "stuck forward". Lewis did not enter the penalty area, but floated on the outside waiting for a shot. Odom could have used a sack to grab the rebound. It was too easy.
The Lakers' counterattack failed, the Magic's defense was not slow, and Howard's physical talent is too strong, so speed will not be a weakness.
Lewis is a good power forward and naturally has good speed.
In the positional battle, Fisher controlled the ball to the frontcourt and immediately distributed the ball to Su Bei instead of Kobe.
Obviously, Kobe's state in the second quarter hurt the hearts of his teammates. The most stable Lakers team is to rely on the opportunities created by the triangle offensive tactical system, which is the most reliable.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Fisher and Su Bei played an outside cut. This is completely copying the homework of Nelson and Turkoglu just now!
It's just that the Lakers' triangle offensive tactics make the simple pick-and-roll tactics more complicated..."
Indeed, the triangle offensive tactic is really not good without some IQ.
After Su Bei caught the ball, he set a screen for Fisher, and then handed the basketball to Fisher.
In the bottom corner of the right three-point corner, Fisher's three-point shooting opportunity came out.
Turkoglu had no choice but to switch defenses, and Fisher clicked without shooting or breaking out. Instead, he chose to pass the basketball to Odom, who was pulled out as a pivot, and then...
"Fisher cuts to the basket without the ball and can set a screen for Odom.
Su Bei was on the other side and also cut in from the air at the same time. Odom chose to turn over Su Bei's card. After receiving the ball, Su Bei carried Nelson's body and shot up in the air at close range..."
Swish——!
Su Bei easily scored two points, as easy as eating a cake.
183 versus 199, what can Nelson do to defeat him?
The triangle relationship is the most stable relationship.
The triangle offense is also the most stable offense.
The Magic had two mismatched defenses. Whether Wu Lun was cut by Fisher and hit the back door, or Su Bei was cut by Su Bei and hit the front door. They were both on the lagging side, and the advantage was with the Lakers.
After Howard was pulled out, whether he was defending Su Bei or not caring about Odom, Su Bei's offense would not be used to the Magic's defense.
The gap between the two sides is only 1 point.
In the Magic's offense, Nelson Jr. forced Fisher, and then passed the basketball comfortably to Howard's hands. On the outside or inside of the selection, Jackson determined the strategy of blocking the penalty area and preventing Howard's offense from being active.
.
For the one-star and four-shooting tactic, in terms of defense, the first choice is to kill the "one-star" point. As for the four-star attack, it can only be used for strikes. In terms of the pattern, it must be far-reaching.
Howard's offense must die, this is the most correct choice.
"Howard was surrounded. Without a mid-range shot, he chose to pass the basketball...
Lewis caught the ball and threw the basketball despite Odom's defense..."
Bang-dang——!
Lewis's three-pointer was sent.
Why Lewis is called a "billion-dollar parallel import player" is because after he got a big contract, his shooting was very unstable. This is the nature of a player who shoots from the outside. Three-pointers cannot kill the game. Most of the time.
is right.
Kobe's state can be an angel at one stage and a devil at another stage, and the same goes for Lewis.
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
…
The Lakers didn't believe that Kobe Bryant would be that tough in the second quarter, and the Magic were no better in the third quarter. They also firmly believed that there were bullets in their outside shooting pistols, and they were just letting the bullets fly a little longer.
However, the Magic didn't know that this "just" cost them a price.
It was fine when they arrived, but as a result, the three-point shooting from the outside was so hard that they couldn't get back.
I can only continue to play music and continue to play iron...
In the second quarter, the Magic made 7 of 10 three-point shots. As a result, in the third quarter, the Magic's three-point rain was blown away and they shot 0 of 8.
There is no outside shooting, and there is no room for Howard inside. In addition, there is no mid-range shot, so naturally the offensive firepower is lost.
In the third quarter of the game, the Magic only scored 14 points, which was almost one-third of the points in the second quarter. Why is the one-star, four-shot strategy not popular?
The reason is because he is still somewhat unreliable!
On the contrary, the Lakers' triangle offensive tactics were much more reliable. Although Kobe still made 1 of 4 shots, the role players played more offensive offense and scored 25 points in the third quarter.
At the end of the first three quarters, the Lakers had an 8-point lead and entered the final quarter.
