"We are far behind, but ladies and gentlemen, we still have a chance because we are the team with the best record in history!"
"The boys on the field now need your cheer!!! e.on!!! Let the entire Great Western Forum Arena be filled with your voices!!!" Although it is 25 points behind the score.
, but Chick Hearn's voice was still full of passion and confidence. The entire audience was also stirred up by him and began to cheer loudly.
"Come on~Los Angeles~"
"Come on~ Lakers~"
"Come on~ you are the best~"
After hearing the cheers, Jerry West turned to look at "Tang Qian" and said: "Wilt, I must be crazy to believe you. I hope you won't joke with me.
"Tang Qian" smiled, opened his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I won't cheat you, Jerry, because I'm tired of seeing the proud faces of New Yorkers."
"So tonight, even if I lose my hands, I will still win!"
Jerry West was slightly startled and said: "Wilt, you are really different from usual tonight. How should I put it? It's like you have a competitive spirit." "What? Jerry
"Here, didn't I have a competitive spirit before?" Tang Qian said.
"It's not that it's not happening, it's just that it's never been this 'intense' before." Jerry West said, "Seeing you like this makes me feel a little relieved. At least it means you're not joking."
"Of course, Jerry, come on, let New Yorkers see how powerful we are!" "Tang Qian" said loudly.
"Okay~ Come on~" Jerry West nodded in response.
The Lakers attack and Jerry West controls the ball.
Walter Frazier immediately followed and said at the same time: "Jerry, just give up. Your shooting percentage tonight is just like dog shit. There is no way you can win us this way."
Jerry West looked at his opponent and said: "Shut up! Did you also call me Jerry? I won't let you walk out of the Great Western Forum with a smile tonight! Got it? Frey
Ze!"
"Haha~" Walter Frazier laughed when he heard this and said: "West, you are old, you are already in the past tense. Do you understand what past tense means? That is to say, you should abdicate, you
It’s time to retire! We beat you the year before last, and it will be the same this year! This is something that even God can’t change!”
"You..." Jerry West was a little annoyed, but his shooting percentage was not high tonight and even in the entire playoffs. This is one of the main reasons why the Lakers are struggling so far. He also thought about it
Adjustment, but the further back he goes, the tighter and more unbalanced his mentality becomes, so that the more he adjusts, the worse he becomes.
It's like entering a vicious cycle.
Being able to suppress a veteran league superstar, or even a superstar, in this way, Walter Frazier felt very "pleasant" because he had already vaguely felt that his own era was about to come. But Tang Qian knew that Walter
Although Frazier is nearly 7 years younger than Jerry West, his peak came to an end in 1975, and he spent the last few years just hanging around with the Cavaliers. Compared to West, he is older
Having been the absolute main force for 14 years, his destiny and glory seemed to have stayed around the early 1970s in New York.
However, during this period of time, he was an absolute super backcourt, super No. 1 position, versatile offensive and defensive, and extremely powerful.
"Jerry faced Frazier again. What would Jerry do? Break through? Or pass? Oh? Jerry actually slowed down? What did he do when he stopped so far away?"
Because there is no three-point line, it feels strange and confusing no matter how you look at it from such a distance. In fact, players in this era rarely have the ability to shoot from three-point range, so Jay
Lee West's move not only confused the on-site commentator, but even his opponent Walter Frazier was a little baffled by West's "weird move".
But within a few seconds, West took action, dribbling quickly towards the Knicks' interior.
But Jerry West is originally white, and his explosive power in the first step is limited. Moreover, he was born in 1938 and is now close to 34 years old. His physical fitness has declined even more than in his peak period. So this is a problem for the 27-year-old Walter Ford.
From Lei Ze's point of view, although the start was sudden, it was not a ball that could not be defended. A sliding step to the right was about to destroy West's breakthrough route, but at this moment, he was "fixed"
In place.
What is going on? Walter Frazier was a little confused because he was playing basketball for the first time and was forced to "pause" in this position for the first time. Looking back, he saw a tall iron tower.
Figure, if that’s not Lakers No. 13, who is it?
What, what are you doing? Running out for a pick-and-roll from such a high position? It's still a long way from the free throw line? Once he runs out, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to catch him back and become a "given up defensive target"? Walter Frazier
The "worry" is not groundless, because everyone knows that at this distance, Wilt Chamberlain's offensive ability is 99.99999999% zero. There is no difference between five-man defense and one-man defense.
But immediately, he heard a "swipe" sound. It turned out to be Jerry West's breakthrough layup and goal.
Anyone who has played basketball knows that after a long and long start, one's impact and destructive power will increase exponentially. Especially when there is no one to defend in front of you and you drive straight in, that feeling will broaden your horizons.
Full of confidence. Although West is a bit old, but after really picking up the speed, it is still good. In addition, his layup is very good, so there is no suspense in scoring.
No matter how bad the shooting feel is, what about layups? It basically has nothing to do with the feeling.
NBA players must make at least 98 of 100 uninterrupted layups. Even if there is interference, the shooting percentage of layups under the basket is much higher than the shooting percentage of other points. So this ball is Jerry
West felt cold in this game, but that didn't stop him from scoring.
The Lakers' outside core finally scored.
The audience burst into applause because Jerry West lived up to their cheers.
The Knicks attacked, and Walter Frazier forced a break through Jerry West to score, instantly avenging the previous "kill with one stone." It can be seen from this ball that the former's athletic ability is at its peak.
On the previous day, Jerry West was a bit "old", so it was difficult for him to control his opponents on the offensive end. Just when Jerry West was extremely annoyed, the Lakers pulled No. 13 again
He whispered a few words, and after West paused, he said with some suspicion: "Is this really okay? Isn't it opening the door to welcome the robbers to invade?"
"Nothing is wrong." "Tang Qian" said: "He will definitely attack you one-on-one. You just need to lead him in, and I will help you with the rest." "Okay, then let's give it a try.
Try it." Jerry West said doubtfully.
And the reason why he agreed so happily was because he also knew that he basically couldn't defend Walter Frazier now, so he had to have help. But in the 1970s, one-on-one was still popular.
In a one-on-one duel, if you are basically not completely out of position, and if you don’t enter the team’s interior or penalty area, then no one will help defend. Otherwise, this was synonymous with “cowardice” in that era. So “Tang Qian”
"He added another sentence: "It's just Jerry, in this case, you may be known by people..."
"Mocked? Satirized?" Jerry West said something from his heart: "If these can buy me a championship ring, then what should I not want to do?"
"Wilt, as long as your defensive tactics really work, then I don't care even if you let me be the clown."
"Tang Qian" nodded when he heard this. He didn't feel deeply before. Now after losing two championship series in a row, Tang Qian can almost feel the same. This is a professional basketball player's desire for the highest honor in his career.
, longing for it. Especially some older veterans, even more so. They would rather work hard, go through fire and water, or even lose their guarantee at the end of the year for a championship ring, that’s fine.
On the offensive end, Jerry West once again relied on Tang Qian's high pick-and-roll to easily get into the Knicks' interior.
Another layup was successful.
Seeing that his defensive opponent was scoring frequently, Walter Frazier was a little unhappy. He didn't intend to pass the ball. He dribbled the ball past half court and headed towards the Lakers' penalty area. But he wanted to
Entering the Lakers' penalty area, there is still a line of defense that must be crossed. That is the opponent, No. 44 of the Lakers, Jerry West. But obviously, tonight Walter Frazier has no eyes at all.
There was no No. 44. He changed direction and rushed towards the right side of the Lakers.
His actions were blatant, and he didn't even bother to cover up or make any false moves.
This shows that he doesn't like Jerry West at all on the defensive end.
The first half also proved this, the opponent couldn't stop him at all.
So there is nothing to say. After being beaten once, Walter Frazier will fight back because he feels that he has completely matured and can replace the Lakers' No. 44 position as the league's signature No. 1 position at any time. It costs almost nothing.
With his strength, he broke through Jerry West's defense for more than half of his body. After two or three steps, he directly left the latter by a whole body. Under normal circumstances, West's defense had been blocked.
It's half useless and can't cause much interference.
Okay, this goal is definitely scored.
Walter Frazier took off for a layup, and at this moment, a giant palm that had been waiting for a long time suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and then with a "pop" sound, it flew directly out. The Lakers succeeded in a fast break.
Without chaos or hand-to-hand combat, the Lakers' overall offense was smooth and dazzling.
Walter Frazier continued to break through on the next ball. Although he was not blocked, he was defended by two people in front and back, and his shot was inaccurate.
Hairston of the Lakers got the defensive rebound. The Lakers continued to push quickly, but the ball was stolen by the Knicks. After all, they are a team famous for defense and have entered the finals many times. How could there not be two? Passed the basketball to Walter Frazier again, and Frazier continued to attack West, but he didn't know that everything he did was part of the calculations of Jerry West and "Tang Qian" .
His breakthrough route was basically designed by both Jerry West and "Tang Qian", so how could the offensive success rate be so high? You asked Walter Frazier why he was so stupid? Why was he so stupid? He had to dive in head first. Falling into someone else's trap? Mainly because Jerry West did it very cleverly. Even "Tang Qian" as a "later generation" felt amazing after seeing the former's "putting his guard down" action.
Not only the proportions and space of "putting off guard", but also his body movements and facial expressions, giving him the image of an "old man" who is "barely holding on". It's as if he has already used all kinds of tricks in the face of Walter Frazier. Although I was trying my best, I already felt a little inadequate. But when this scene fell into the eyes of Walter Frazier and the New York team, it naturally became a phenomenon of "at the end of the crossbow". If there is such a "good opportunity", it is not good to seize it. How can that work?
So even though Walter Frazier failed to attack several times, the basketball still passed to him without hesitation and passed to him again and again. But they didn't know that all this was a "conspiracy" premeditated by the Lakers. In terms of tactics, There is no way the 1970s could catch up with the richness and sophistication of 2013. The development of basketball in the forties and fifties was not in vain. Many things are much more complicated than "now".
Of course, Tang Qian was cheating in a different direction, because without the accumulation and development of the past forty or fifty years, basketball would not be as exciting as that of later generations. But now, in addition to winning, he also wants to save his life, so how can he do that? Can you take care of so much?
"Different Space" is really sorry for you. In terms of "finding loopholes" and "attacking the mind", there is no way you can play with me, a living person. This is the level gap between intelligence and IQ, haha~
Tang Qian was slightly proud. After all, it was never easy to take advantage of the "different space".
By the end of the third quarter, the Lakers caught up, 87-91, only 4 points behind their opponents.
In other words, in the second half of the third quarter, the Knicks were overwhelmed by the Lakers and almost fell into disarray.
During the break, the head coach of the Knicks came up with some questions. After all, he is also a future Hall of Fame coach. He still has this kind of vision and tactical analysis ability. If it is really like some "brainless novels" Yes, such an idiot is not worthy of the title of "Top Ten Coaches in NBA History".
Although Tang Qian's "high pick-and-roll tactic" was somewhat advanced and could be played a lot, Reed Holzman of the Knicks still saw some tricks. After a little analysis, he called for the ball. The team's main point guard Walter Frazier said: "Walter, please pay attention to Wilt Chamberlain when you defend later. The Lakers seem to have developed a new pick-and-roll mechanism. If you don't pay attention a little bit, you will be 13 "The number was blocked." "Well, I also discovered it, but Mr. Holzman, how can I break this tactic?" Walter Frazier opened his mouth and asked after hearing this.
"It's hard to say, after all, I rarely see this kind of situation." Reed Holzman thought for a while and said, "But based on the few balls just now, we can still see some clues." Hall
Ziman continued: "First of all, this kind of pick-and-roll is of high quality, because when you perform the pick-and-roll at such a high position, you have a wide field of vision, flexible running, and it is easier to completely block the defender. Then it is the ability to create scoring space for the defender.
, is also very good. Did you also see those few balls played by Jerry West just now? Basically, as soon as you are blocked, he can calmly accelerate and break into us without anyone's interference.
Inside layup. Once the sprint speed increases, the damage to the inside is quite powerful. Even if you can't score, you can still cause personal fouls on the defensive side and get the opportunity to go to the free throw line and get free throws. In the end, this is this tactic.
, has a super high success rate, which is also an advantage that low pick-and-rolls and pick-and-rolls near the free throw line do not have."
If "Tang Qian" were here now, he would definitely have his nose twisted, because how long has it been? In half a quarter, this "ancient man" from the 1970s analyzed the "high pick-and-roll tactics" in detail
.This kind of tactical analysis and tactical analysis ability is really a bit tyrannical. Don’t think that the “ancient people of the 1970s” are all fools. The strong will always be strong. For the Hall of Fame coach, just watch it a few times and figure it out a few more times.
We can always "see the essence through phenomena".
This is the true strength of a Hall of Fame coach.
If you think that you can defeat them with just one trick and make them bow to you and submit to you, then you are either kidding or the joke is on you.
What about the Lakers? Although Bill Sharman was a little dissatisfied, because the main players on and off the court actually "colluded" with each other and "subordinated" their own tactics. But no matter what, the score difference has caught up. This is also
The fact is, between winning and losing face, Bill Sharman ultimately chose the former and chose to win.
The Grand Slam of season honors is also his biggest pursuit this season.
In order to achieve this goal, he could only "endure it" temporarily.
And based on several rounds of observation, he also noticed the advantages of this "new tactic", so during the break, Bill Sharman never mentioned tactical issues, but just briefly explained the defensive objectives, and then started
"Talk about other things".
The appearance of this scene also made Lakers No. 13 breathe a sigh of relief, because he was really afraid that Bill Sharman was a "die-hard" and would scold him indiscriminately and order the fourth quarter to resume.
The Lakers' regular season play style.
It seems that I am too worried.
In the face of victory and the championship ring, Bill Sharman's ability to restrain himself is quite good.
PS: It seems like it hasn’t happened yet this week, right? In that case, let’s break out tomorrow~ Hehe~
Thank you all book friends for your strong support~
