Chapter 197: Chopping melons and vegetables
The Lakers big forward position now has the unstoppable Lamar in front of him, and Grant is also convinced of Lamar's strength!
There is also Chris Anderson, who has unlimited potential in the back, ready to step on his position at any time, although he has no offensive ability, but the enthusiasm of the defense is not said, and he is like a mad dog in heat at a critical time!
Anderson and Grant have overlapping positions, both swinging back and forth between the power forward and center positions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info In this way, of course, Phil's playing time will also vary from person to person, and will always arrange their playing time according to the opponent of the game. So Grant was a lot less playable than when he was in Orlando. But he didn't care at all, the new team gave him a lot of motivation, not only because he had the best player in the league, Shaq, the top outside attacker, Kobe Bryant, but also because he had his current rival Lamar.
Although Grant is old, he still craves honors, and he feels that staying here brings him closer to his dream of a championship, and he can quickly play his part and contribute to the team every time he plays.
And with less playing time, he can also maintain full physical strength at any time and wait for the call. Phil Jackson sees these things and relies more and more on him, and has now replaced the injured Robert Horry as the team's best sixth man and the leader of the team's locker room.
On the Clippers' side, the team is now 18 points behind, and the tactical coordination on the court is not arranged by the head coach before the game, it is completely chaotic!
This is intolerable to the head coach of the Clippers, the players can perform poorly on the court, even if they can't even score a point in the whole game, as long as the tactics are strictly implemented, it doesn't matter, but once they get out of the tactical system, it is intolerable, even if they lose, they have to lose reasonably, and they lose hard.
"It's not the offense I want at all, do you understand? Not at all, the team is in chaos right now, and it's completely uncooperative!"
The head coach of the Clippers ignored the contradiction between Olowokandi and Piakowski, and gave the order directly, he always believed that the conflict between the players was their own business, and the coach's task was to direct the game, and the order had been given, and anyone who did not listen to the command would be replaced.
"Shaq, Lamar, you two come down and rest, Grant, Anderson, you go up, Anderson, your job is to block that stupid big guy from the Clippers, use your usual madness to keep him away from rebounding, and protect our interior. Tyrone Lue, after going up, raise the team's speed, don't dribble the ball too much, use the speed to break them, transfer the ball more, and find an open pass to Kobe. ”
At the same time, the Clippers are also laying out tactics!
Before the timeout ended, Phil Jackson was still a little uneasy, and called Kobe Bryant in front of him again, and admonished: "Kobe! Go up and play to your heart's content, I don't have any special tactical arrangements, I allow you to have the right to fire freely in the next game." ”
Since the beginning of the new season, although the team's record is good, and he is a little closer to his dream of defending the title, he always feels very depressed when he plays on the court, what is the reason? He knows very well that the appearance of Lamar has made him lose absolute possession of the ball, and in addition to adding a big help, he has made him feel a kind of pressure out of thin air.
Lamar rose so fast that he didn't even have time to prepare mentally. Now many fans in Los Angeles think that Lamar will be the best successor to the Lakers, not him! But the problem is that Kobe Bryant is also a strong person, he doesn't want to give up his rights, and the Lakers' baton should be inherited by himself!
Shook his head fiercely, leaving those selfish distractions far away, whether Lamar would suddenly jump out and grab power He didn't know, what he did know was that right now, on the field, a lifelong opponent had shown his fangs.
Tyrone Lue is on the court, and those who are familiar with the NBA circle know that in the Lakers he is a trick, a master of chaos, a spoiler, and has no ability to organize games at all.
Now with such a lineup, the biggest beneficiary of Tyrone Lue's appearance is obviously Kobe! Jackson's intention to send him on the court is also obvious, and the Lakers' offensive focus is about to shift from the inside to the outside Kobe.
The Lakers served from the bottom line, and Tyrone Lue couldn't wait to pass the ball to Kobe Bryant before half time. Seeing this, Richardson immediately went up and lowered his body and occupied Kobe's face.
Kobe Bryant stared coldly at Quentin Richardson: "Do you think you can stop me?"
Richardson smiled and said, "Of course! I have already obtained a pistol with infinite bullets. If you dare to come up, I will surprise you!"
Kobe Bryant also curled the corners of his mouth after hearing this: "Very good! Let's start now!"
"That's what I mean!"
Kobe's expression changed suddenly, just like the samurai in ancient times pulled down the ghost face before the battle, and the momentum of the whole person was different. If Kobe Bryant was like a nameless sword with a scabbard when he put away his offensive minions before, now he is an unsheathed Yitian.
He jerked forward to make a breakthrough, and Richardson hurriedly stepped back to block the opponent's offensive line. At the moment when Richardson's feet just stepped back, Kobe Bryant suddenly retracted his body, and the basketball quickly changed hands twice under the crotch, and then raised his hand to make a three-point shot, and the ball hit the board into the basket after crossing a high parabola.
Richardson acted as if he hadn't seen it, beckoning Olovo Kandi to hurry up and send the baseline ball.
Piakowski received the ball and turned and rushed towards the Lakers' halfcourt, and although Tyrone Lue wanted to use his body to block him, at worst he had to slow down his speed.
But Piakowski has already started, and at the peak of his prime, he almost quickly relied on his physical advantage to run over Tyrone Lu, even if he didn't have the impact of those big guys, but the dexterous way of dribbling, the strange rhythm made Tyrone Lu, who was defending him, scratch his head at all!
As soon as he stepped into the three-point line, Piakoski suddenly stopped, threw the unsuspecting Tyrone Lue out completely, took advantage of the space to pull away, made a quick shot, and threw the ball into the basket safely.
Piakoski watched the ball go into the net and suddenly laughed: "I'll do it with three points!"
Olovocandi snorted disdainfully, "That's when you only dogged this morning." "He was very unhappy when he came back from the timeout, and the head coach has already understood very clearly, playing fast attack, which is to shift the main attack direction to the outside, and it is Piakowski who he dislikes the most to take on this responsibility.
Once upon a time, that guy was also a loyal supporter of his, and he helped himself on the outside every time he played, hoping that he could grow up as soon as possible! If things continue in this direction, maybe the two of them will become a good pair of inside and outside partners in the NBA. It's a pity that the original Piakowski actually rebelled, and recently he even openly jumped out to support Humpty Dumpty who tried to challenge his authority, which touched his rebellious scales and brought the relationship between the two to this point. Olovo Kandi, this guy is also not self-aware at all, and he doesn't look at his own strength, so many years have passed, such a good physical talent, not good use, completely wasted! Look at Elton Brand again, although this guy's big mouth is really unpleasant, but the data is really there, an average of 20+10+2 per game, this is the league's recognized top interior data! Isn't it obvious who the Clippers' uniform team and their comrades in arms will choose? They are not fools!
Piakoski squinted at Olovocandi, and said coldly: "Fatty, it's my game time, you'd better figure this out, just do what you have to do, you don't have to worry about the rest." ”
Instead of getting angry, Olovocandi laughed, "Very good! I'll do my part, but you'd better do something to prove your strength before the end of the match." Traitor!"
The Lakers didn't pay attention to the Clippers' infighting, and were happy to see it happen! Grant didn't stop and threw the baseline ball directly to Kobe.
After Kobe Bryant received the ball, he completely ignored the Clippers duo who were still bickering, and threw a sentence at Richardson, who was defending him: "Open your eyes, your teammates are almost dry!
In the locker room, the team doctor was bandaging Elton's wounds, and Elgin Baylor sat beside Elton, staring at him tightly! He had just received five stitches, and with each stitch, Elton felt his heart beat violently.
"Elton, are you alright?" Elgin Baylor asked worriedly, "I still think I should go to the hospital for a check-up and do a CT scan to see if I have a concussion?"
Elton could feel the general manager's concern for him, and he forced a smile, but half of his face was tied tightly with bandages, making him smile strangely.
"Don't worry, I'm fine!" he said, not forgetting to look at the TV hanging on the wall of the locker room, which was playing the game.
I saw Kobe Bryant suddenly leaning in the face of Richardson's defense, revealing a flaw, Richardson, who was quick and liked to gamble, really chose to pounce on the ball, and saw that his hand was about to reach the ball. At this moment, Kobe Bryant made a very delicate pull ball and turn action, just flicked his finger on the surface of the ball, and the basketball disappeared in front of Richardson's eyes, and Kobe took the opportunity to break through the opponent's defense and enter the inside.
Anderson was doing his job as Phil Jackson had instructed, and he had single-handedly kept Olovocandi behind. He works hard every game and has the most enthusiastic attitude towards the game, although sometimes his head is a bit funny, but he knows exactly what to do. (To be continued.) )
