Chapter 185: Two consecutive victories, two consecutive losses
It is a pity that this goal was conceded, and it has nothing to do with Adrian himself. If it does have anything to do with it, it has more to do with Trevor Ariza. When Lindero Barbosa shot
, he was in a completely open position, and he didn't have time to interfere. Although even if he interfered, Barbosa might not be able to score the goal, but it is true that Ariza's defense was not in place.
However, since you have to force the defense, you must take the risk of Nash breaking through the defense. This is also a helpless decision. After all, there is no perfect tactic in this world. You can only use the power of the tactic and try your best to make up for the shortcomings.
Adrian knew it all.
But he directly took the responsibility for conceding the ball on himself, and then impatiently urged Kwame to serve to him. In this decisive moment, every ball is extremely important. Compared with asking players to serve for
Instead of blaming themselves for their own defensive mistakes, it is better for the players to focus on the next offense.
This is what Adrian thought and did.
When Adrian reaches the frontcourt, it is still Boyce Diaw who defends Adrian. This does not mean that D'Antoni trusts Boyce's defense, but there is absolutely no way. When it comes to defending Adrian, the Suns
Another suitable candidate is James Jones. At this time, James Jones was also replaced by D'Antoni. But what James Jones has to face is Ariza who has excellent air cutting ability and is like a power battery.
The important thing is that James Jones has already committed five fouls. Although Adrian's ability to draw fouls is not outstanding, but under hard attack, James Jones's defensive actions are always exaggerated. Exaggerated actions.
A kind of deterrence. But when Hai maintained an exaggerated style despite five fouls, he was simply making the referee uncomfortable. D'Antoni is not that stupid. He is good at putting pressure on the referee. He is now like Phil Jackson.
They are all trying their best to put pressure on the referee with their expressions, actions and words in order to get a more favorable situation, but the pressure must be measured in a certain way. If it triggers a rebellious mentality, you want to tell me not to brag. I am very special today.
If you want to brag, you will really lose a handful of rice instead of stealing the chicken.
Therefore, the final choice to defend Adrian is still Boyce Diaw.
This time Adrian did not stay in the top arc, but passed the ball to Ariza. He ran to the weak side and stood still. He got stuck in a good position and opened his hand to ask Ariza for the ball. This is**
I'm going to have a solo fight naked.
Odom has always been a mild-tempered person, otherwise it would be difficult to get along with the arrogant Kobe. Seeing Adrian insisting on singles, Odom immediately pulled out and opened up a little more for Adrian.
The space under the basket, this attitude is really nothing to say. If you ask me to be the boss, I will be the boss. If you ask me to be the second boss, I will be the second boss. If it doesn't work, the third boss will be the best. I can also sit on the bench, but I can say that I am really a coach
The image of the docile little daughter-in-law in my heart.
Of course Ariza would not suddenly have a headache and play with the ball by himself at this time. He was not so blind. Although he felt that he had a chance to play, he also knew that if he usually did it by himself, even if something happened, Kobe's face would be worse.
It doesn't look good, but Adrian probably just smiled, but he believed that if he dared to do this at this time, other people would not look good on him without Adrian saying anything, and Phil Jackson would be the first to do so.
Time to replace yourself. Even if the ball is scored, it will be the same.
Role players must have the awareness of role players. Ariza made a lob and passed the basketball to Adrian. After all, there are very few people in this world who are really stupid, and most of them are pretending to be stupid.
Adrian held the ball and didn't make any fake moves. The game lasted for such a long time, and he understood that Boyce-Diaw's physical strength had been almost exhausted. At this time, he couldn't stop him if he had the upper hand on Boyce-Diaw. Since
In this case, don’t play with technology, fancy work, etc.
Adrian caught the ball and immediately turned around and took off. Boyce-Diaw's take-off was slow, and there was an irreparable gap in jumping ability with Adrian. He could only barely stretch his arms, but his fingertips could only reach him.
Derian's chin,
Take off and take action!
Basketball caught in the net!
Simple and straightforward!
106:102, the Lakers still lead the Suns by four points, a score that cannot be erased with every ball, and there is only one minute and seventeen seconds left, and the referee's whistle may sound at any time.
A smile appeared on Adrian's face, and he immediately stepped back while shouting loudly for everyone to return to defense seriously and not give the Suns a chance to play a fast break.
The Suns only served the baseline ball at this time. When Nash saw it, he was almost back on defense. The fast break was impossible. Take your time and step by step.
Although the Suns' offense has always been about speed, pursuing the slogan of seven seconds or less. But the slogan is just a slogan after all and cannot be eaten. At this time, even if it is as fast as the Suns, it must pursue a success rate, otherwise it will be blocked.
Once and again, the result of this game will be decided.
The natural choice for the Suns to handle the ball was Steve Nash. Adrian was guarding him, while Trevor Ariza was guarding another person, Lindro Barbosa, who was like a runaway horse.
The Broncos usually run wildly in the Lakers' half, and Ariza has to keep up with him, because once Barbosa runs out of space, a three-point opportunity will appear. The big key to that goal just now is Ariza.
Couldn't catch Barbossa.
The basketball jumped between Nash's hands. Adrian lowered his body, but did not dare to try to steal the ball from Nash's hands. Even if sometimes Nash seemed to accidentally expose the basketball, he knew clearly that it must be Nash's.
Trap, once you do it yourself, the defense is basically over.
At critical moments, safety comes first.
At this moment, Stoudemire, who had been fighting inside, suddenly rushed out from the inside.
"Is this a pick-and-roll?" Adrian caught sight of Stoudemire rushing up from the corner of his eye, and his feet naturally began to move, preparing to bypass Stoudemire's pick-and-roll to defend Nash. At this moment,
, Nash voted...
It was an extremely sudden shot. The basketball had already flown out of his hands almost as soon as it took off. Such a fast shooting speed gave Adrian no time to defend. He also did not expect that Nash would suddenly choose to kill himself.
The basketball hit the ball steadily, and Steve Nash also had a smile on his face. At this time, the referee came out to disrupt the situation. He did not blow off the goal, but he thought the goal was only two points because Nash
He stepped on the line when shooting. The Lakers players were having fun, but the Suns players naturally stopped and gathered around to ask the referee for comment. Nash's shot was obviously a three-pointer! Even Nash, although he didn't
He rushed to the referee to argue, but his face looked a little weird. He obviously thought that the shot he just made should be a three-pointer.
But at this time, the referee stopped his spine and held the whistle in his mouth, as if he was about to blow the whistle at any time. At the same time, he waved his hand to signal the Suns not to come over and signaled the Lakers to kick off quickly.
"Pass the ball!" Adrian yelled at Brown who was watching the baseline. Brown's whole body was excited, and the basketball was immediately passed out and fell into Odom's hands. Odom's reaction was also very fast.
A long throw, throwing the basketball directly towards the front court.
Adrian was about to go down at this time. When he saw the referee's action, he keenly captured this opportunity. Whether it was a three-pointer or a two-pointer, since the referee did not stop the game, their attack should be effective.
!It’s an offense within the rules! At most...the Suns were fooled by the rules.
Adrian was completely unguarded at the basket. By the time the Suns reacted, the daylily was already cold. Adrian made an easy layup. Of course, it was impossible for this kind of layup to miss, and he scored two points again.
Ten points in a row!
At this time, the replay came belatedly. Nash did step on the line when he shot. It was very obvious, even if he didn't admit it, the Lakers fans were relieved and applauded, praising the referee for his keen eyesight.
, a clear-eyed observer, able to see clearly even the trivial matter of stepping on the line at critical moments.
At this time, D'Antoni quit. He didn't ask whether the ball just was a three-pointer or a two-pointer. The replay was so clear that even a fool could see that Nash had indeed stepped on the line, and there was no point in arguing.
The key is whether the Lakers' offense is effective this time.
The referee simply glanced at D'Antoni, with no intention of explaining at all. Instead, he signaled for the game to start as soon as possible. This behavior naturally won the favor of Lakers fans, who applauded one after another. Even Phil Jackson also smiled.
People applauded on the sidelines, the referee’s decision...if nothing else, my heart felt as sweet as honey.
D'Antoni almost couldn't help but call a timeout, and then rushed to argue with the referee, but he still held back because he saw a bad look in the referee's eyes. If he rushed to argue at this time, he would be in trouble.
Eat the good fruit.
The game started again, and it was obvious that the referee's decision had just affected the mentality of the Suns players. Although there was still one minute left, there was a big problem with the Suns' mentality.
Steve Nash passed the basketball to Barbosa, expecting him to make a transition before passing it to him. After receiving the ball, Lindro Barbosa directly chose to shoot. This shot made no sense.
It was very hasty, and the result was disastrous. It bounced directly, and I didn't even have to fight for the rebound.
Nash glared at Barbossa dissatisfiedly, but ultimately said nothing.
It's not that he doesn't understand Barbossa's psychology, but isn't it a lie to waste an opportunity at this time? (To be continued...)
