Seeing Lamar's wonderful performance, his teammates around him couldn't help but be demoralized, and victory seemed to be close to them. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It looks like this is going to be another game of the death, the Lakers want to win a second straight to further consolidate their advantage, and the Trail Blazers don't want to sit still, they also want to have the last laugh in this do-or-die battle, and the game between the two teams is full of gunpowder from the first second.

The first quarter of the game ended after a fierce back-and-forth between the two teams. Although the Lakers launched a fierce attack on the Trail Blazers under the leadership of Lamar and Shaq, when the first quarter ended, Portland, who was playing on the road, still led the Lakers by three points at 27-24 in the final minute thanks to a three-pointer from Rasheed Wallace in the final moment.

Lamar was happy with the result, as he and Shaq both played less than eight minutes in the quarter, and spent the rest of the quarter on the bench. They have to store more stamina for the final quarter.

Chauncey's top scorer in the quarter was Chauncey, who once again opened the scoring curtain with a precise three-pointer after Chauncey Billups exploded in the last game.

The second quarter of the game began quickly, and both sides significantly stepped up their offense.

For a while, the scores of the two teams rose alternately, and the Trail Blazers seemed to have made up their minds to show off their offensive strength in front of the Lakers, who had the strongest offensive power in the league, but today their main firepower was not placed on the outside, but concentrated on the inside, and even Rasheed Wallace no longer pulled to the outside to hurricane three-pointers, but just blindly played on the inside.

Taking advantage of the period when Shaq and Lamar were resting off the court, the Trail Blazers played the inside one after another, and the Lakers ran out of good ideas for a while.

Phil Jackson replaced Robert Horry and Sailly one after another, hoping that they could strengthen the team's interior defense, but today's Sabonis and Roaring Tianzun are just like O'Neal's soul possession, and they are completely two small powerhouses on the inside.

Neither Anderson and Horry's combination of experience nor the dynamic duo of Anderson and Sailly are their perfect match.

Rasheed Wallace, in particular, was in scoring mode today, and the Lakers' basket was "clattered" by him.

However, this situation began to change dramatically with the introduction of Shaq and Lamar.

During this time, in order to widen the score gap with the Lakers, the Trail Blazers have not let the interior core Sabonis and Rasheed Wallace go to rest, Wallace is okay, young and strong, but the veteran Sabonis is not good!

In the face of Shaq, who was full of physical strength and fighting spirit, Sabonis could only hold his knees and gasp for breath! The Lakers only took less than 5 minutes to chase back the score from behind, and even overtook him!

In the locker room, the atmosphere of the Trail Blazers seemed a little gloomy, and Mike Dunleavy also frowned at this time and walked in.

"Can you only use the shark slashing tactic? But it seems that Shaq's free throws today are also quite good, 6 of 9. ”

In fact, the last thing Dunleavy wants to use is the shark slashing tactic!

Although when facing the Lakers in the regular season, each team will unconsciously take out this set of winning magic weapons specifically used to deal with Shaq.

But in his consciousness, this is not a tactic at all, it is the same as the "Jordan's Rule", it is a foul for the sake of fouling! The use of such a style of play, in his opinion, is definitely an insult to the coach, because using such a tactic means that you have no way to deal with the opposing player! This is also the reason why every time he uses this tactic, even if he wins, he will not be too happy.

After thinking for a while, McDonleavy's brow relaxed!

"Look, everybody!" Dunleavy slapped his slap twice, and all the eyes of all the Trail Blazers players were focused on him.

Dunleavy also began to spread his thoughts on the tactical version at this time, fiddling a few small magnets back and forth, and drawing a lot of messy tactical lines.

"Isn't this a two-three defense?" Rashid was stunned for a moment when he saw the tactical version, the two-three defense had been used just now, and it turned out that the effect was not ordinarily bad, but now what does the coach mean by taking it out again?

Although Bunch Wells' tactical knowledge is basically equal to zero, he also listens carefully during the usual tactical training of the team, and he still knows about the second and third defense.

"No, this is not a two-three joint defense! Although the position is the same, the running position and the supplementary defense are completely different, and it seems to be tighter!"

With a few strokes from McDonleavy ticking the line out, the flying squirrel Stoudemire said suddenly.

"Listen, the main thrust of this lineup is。。。。。。 After sketching out, McDonleavy began to explain his newly researched tactics to the Trail Blazers players.

Scott Pippen was more and more frightened the more he listened, and his eyes became brighter and brighter! Although Dunleavy didn't quite understand the tactical jargon, he already understood the manager's intentions.

McDonleavy looked at Scott Pippen with a smile, very happy in his heart.

Originally, he thought that a veteran like Pippen would not understand, and he was going to communicate with Pippen for a while, but he didn't expect that Pippen, who was the oldest in the team, would be able to understand his hard work in a short time, and he believed that these old players would soon master the characteristics of this set of tactics.

It took three times for the Trail Blazers players to understand the essence of this tactic, and at this point even McDonleavy himself couldn't help but applaud himself, he was such a genius.

"I'm a genius!"

But when he saw the statistics of the two sides at halftime, he felt a little crying and laughing, and in just eight minutes after the second quarter, the Trail Blazers exhausted their original six-point advantage and trailed the Lakers by 7 points. It's no wonder that McDonleavy jumped over the wall and was forced to come out with such a set of tactics.

At the start of the third quarter, Phil Jackson replaced Shaq and Robert Horry with Chris Anderson and Ron Harber. He's got to keep Shaq alive in the fourth quarter!

Then the Trail Blazers players also took to the court, their head coach McDonleavy with his head held high, his footwork light, and it was clear from his demeanor that he was very confident that he was a genius at coming up with amazing tactics.

The game restarted, and Anderson served on the baseline and handed it directly to Lamar, who immediately turned around after receiving the ball.

"Be careful!"

At the same time as Phil Jackson on the sidelines warned him, Lamar also felt the threat approaching, but Stoudemire's movements were so fast that he couldn't make any changes at all!

By the time he could react, Stoudemire had managed to cut off the ball from his hand and then made a quick layup.

47:52! The margin was closed again by the Trail Blazers.

was successfully attacked by the opponent, and the Lakers were extra cautious when they served again.

Compared with the first two quarters, the Lakers mainly relied on the inside to score, and now the Lakers give the ball more to the outside, allowing Anderson to use his physical flexibility to come out and block Lamar or Chauncey!

Anderson's shooting skills have improved a lot, and he may gradually replace Grant as the team's interior first bench starting next season. After the Birdman used the pick-and-roll to attack 3 times in a row, McDonleavy couldn't sit still off the court and called a timeout!

What really forced McDonleavy to call a timeout was not Anderson's sudden frenzy of consecutive mid-range shots, but Sabonis' three consecutive turnovers from the start of the second half!

For the first time, the ball was passed to Sabonis, and when he was ready to repeat it. When he used his strong body to squeeze inward and beat Anderson, he found that Lamar suddenly abandoned Rashid Wallace, who he was defending, and stepped forward to help defend himself!

At that time, Sabonis didn't want to think about it, and immediately passed the ball to the roaring Tianzun, who knew that Phil Jackson had already arranged this, only to see Brian Shaw fly up and cut the ball accurately in the middle!

The second time, Sabonis received the ball again, and this time the old guy was not trapped, but Lamar stepped forward to steal the ball!

Just as Sabonis was about to hand the ball to the outside and looked up to find someone, he found that there were no defenders around Stoudemire, Scott Pippen, and Steve Smith on the outside, however, between the two or two, there were Chauncey and Brian Shaw!

The third time, Sabonis turned inside to prepare for a single, and faked the jump to deceive Birdman Anderson, but when he jumped, he was slapped away by Lamar, who came in from the outside!

McDonleavy looked at the triumphant Phil Jackson on the Lakers bench, he already understood the opponent's arrangement, the tactics are simple but very effective, and the only advantage of doing so is to limit his interior attack power and response ability!

Just in this year's playoffs, Phil used similar tactics to limit the Kings' Princeton offensive system!

However, McDonleavy is also a famous coach, and he quickly thought of a way to deal with it and gathered the players together.

"Stoudemire, as soon as Lamar gets inside to help defend later, you immediately run back and catch the ball and pull it in the direction of the bottom corner。。。。。。! Dunleavy's pen is constantly scratching the tactical board, and a set of offensive strategies for the Lakers' new defensive system is constantly outlined.

On the other side of the court, Phil Jackson was also making a new setup, and he had already guessed that McDonleavy would definitely figure out how to deal with it. (To be continued.) )
