Chapter 267: A Showdown between the Strong

"Why would he hold the ball from beyond the three-point line, just to make room for Durantra?" Phil Jackson held his chin up, and since the second half of the season, Anjie has organized fewer and fewer offenses, because he is also very efficient at scoring directly inside. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 But today, why did Van Gundy suddenly have to do it again? Do you really think that turning the point guard into a 2.19m guy can beat the Lakers?

After the Thunder offense, the Lakers rushed to respond. I have to admit, "BEAT. LA" shouted that really stimulated their nerves. The Lakers are a little impatient right now and not as calm as they used to be.

Kobe Bryant's offensive threat with the ball has not diminished, you must know that the Thunder can be said to have lost to Kobe Bryant in the last game. All Sephorosa could do was let Kobe do as much as he could, and it was almost impossible to restrain him.

After Kobe Bryant's breakthrough, Westbrook also gathered towards Kobe Bryant with the tactical arrangement. But today, Kobe Bryant didn't plunge into the crowd again. He glanced behind him and made a decisive pass that shifted the ball to the perimeter.

Kobe Bryant's breakaway shot, which is not common. Generally, Kobe Bryant will choose to attack directly after breaking through, especially in the playoffs, Kobe Bryant either does not hold the ball, and once he holds the ball, there is a chance that he will play by himself.

Who is this ball for? Naturally, it was given to the "old fish" Fischer who was missed by Westbrook. Westbrook is not to blame for this goal, because the bag of Kobe Bryant was originally arranged by Van Gundy. Fischer's first two games were so poor that Van Gundy lowered his guard against him.

However, "Old Fish" got his first chance today and scored the ball. His shot didn't go off the basket again, but hollowed into the net!

"If Fischer is on fire today, coach Jeff Van Gundy will have a very difficult tactical set-up. Because he can't use Westbrook to wrap Kobe, and Durant will be pulled far away by Artest, and he will have no time to make up for the defense. If Fischer can score one more shot today, Coe will only have to face Sefrosa alone!" Reggie Miller knows that although Fischer doesn't score much in every game, his shooting is an important weapon for the Lakers to contain the defense.

He couldn't score, so Westbrook naturally dared to swagger to bag Kobe. But once he started to get right, Westbrook wouldn't dare to give him space easily.

Van Gundy really didn't expect Kobe Bryant to choose to break through the ball, and he didn't expect Fischer's shooting touch to suddenly pick up. But it doesn't matter, he is also full of confidence in the next offense of the Thunder team!

As soon as Anjie's toe touched the three-point line, Westbrook passed the ball out.

"Ann holds the ball outside the three-point line for the second time!What kind of medicine is Coach Van Gundy selling in his gourd!?"

Anjie grabbed the ball with his right hand and sideways Bynum, so he couldn't touch the basketball. The left hand is directing teammates to run, and as a static attack starting point, teammates must be active in their movements.

Bynum didn't worry too much this time, he slammed it on, ready to knock out the basketball in An Jie's hand in one fell swoop.

Seeing this, An Jie suddenly took back the basketball, and turned around with Bynum as the axis, easily dodging the rush and snatching, and also cleaned Bynum!

An Jie originally planned to organize an attack, but now Bynum is giving a big gift, so he is not welcome!

Dribbling to the free throw line, Gasol quickly got rid of the entanglement with Morris this time and went up to block Anjie.

An Jie didn't mean to stop, but he suddenly braked suddenly, as if he was going to use a pull-up jump shot to complete the attack.

"Does this guy think he's a defender!?" the countless commentators sighed, An Jie's offensive choice was too unreasonable. Pull-up jump shots, that's really not what big guys are good at.

Gasol saw Anjie's footsteps standing still, and without thinking too much, he jumped and blocked, in the middle distance, see how you can still perform dream dance steps!

Indeed, fantasy dance moves are for the low singles. Outside the free throw line, this kind of inside footwork does not allow Anjie to pose a direct threat to the basket. But from beginning to end, An Jie never said that he would use fantasy dance steps to avoid the block.

Gasol had just taken off when he saw Anjie dribble again and break through past him.

"Didn't you dribble twice!?" Gasol didn't hear the referee's whistle after seeing Anjie break through. But just now An Jie really stopped dribbling and was ready to shoot, Mo Fei!

Yes, not only Gasol, but even the fans of the Chesapeake Energy Arena grew their mouths and watched in amazement as Anjie smashed one-handed after breaking through Gasol.

Just now, he used a Buddha-worshipping action during the breakthrough process to completely play Gasol!

"Oh! Wonderful goal, Ann's series of actions in front of him are even more exciting than the final dunk! From holding the ball in one hand to breaking through the dunk in one go, all in one go! Ann's all-round offensive skills have once again surprised us!" Kenny Smith exclaimed in surprise, this guy is an all-round center!

Gasol watched the replay on the big screen in disbelief, he had not met a few interior lines who had been in the NBA for many years and could complete the fake shooting action in the breakthrough process like a guard.

In fact, Anjie's goal just now was not intentional, he didn't expect Gasol's defense to be so timely. But it was in this flash that An Jie's instinct on the basketball court prompted him to complete a series of movements. It was in this emergency situation that the worship of the Buddha was born. The reason why he is realistic is because even An Jie himself doesn't know if he will make a move.

"It's rare to use a center as the core!" Phil Jackson suddenly jumped off the bench, not nervous because of the beautiful goal just now, but because of the Thunder's potentially dangerous tactical tension.

With the center as the core, this system has almost been abandoned by the current league. Even Phil Jackson wouldn't choose to use this retro tactical system. But judging from the Thunder's offense in the current two rounds, Van Gundy's changes seem to really work!

If Van Gundy really intends to use Anjie as the core, then how should he deal with it? Thinking of this, the Zen master sat back down. He needs to ponder, he needs to come up with a solution before the Lakers are at a disadvantage.

While the Thunder's offense was smooth today, the Lakers weren't far behind. Unlike the first two games, both teams played poorly, but had to pick a winner among them. Today, the Thunder and Lakers are in excellent form, and this kind of game is what fans want to see in the Western Conference semifinals.

After Bryant assisted Fischer on his first breakaway three-pointer, he used another breakaway to give Gasol a chance in the low post.

After Gasol received the ball, Kobe Bryant and Artest each pulled to the bottom corner, Bynum responded in the mid-range position, and Fischer was naturally directly facing the basket. As soon as the Lakers ran like this, they completely pulled out Gasol's offensive space.

Playing alone with Morris in such a deep position, even if Morris's defense is very hard, this is also nine out of ten for Gasol!

Morris is just a rookie, and Gasol is the mainstay of Spanish basketball!

Sitting back, Morris didn't move. But in fact, Gasol is not to sit back to advance, his position is close enough to the basket. The reason why he will go to the top for a while is simply to find the rhythm of the attack.

Anjie wanted to go to the bag, but Bynum's mid-range shooting was not yet to the point where he could just let it go. If the person who is opposite An Jie at this time is O'Neal, he will definitely not hesitate to wrap up. It's a pity that although they are all sharks, there are still many differences between big sharks and small sharks.

Gasol, who had found his rhythm, suddenly turned around and hooked his hand, and his height and reach made Morris, who was struggling to jump, out of reach.

The basketball grabs the rebound and refracts into the net. Kobe and Gasol high-fived hard, and sure enough, this guy is the big man who can be trusted!

This is the Los Angeles Lakers, every Lakers player on the court can play like a miracle from time to time. Once one or two guys can play at that level, the Lakers will rarely lose.

Although the Lakers scored, Jackson's expression remained serious. The NBA's most cunning "old fox" never fights unprepared, and although Van Gundy changes the tactical core, Jackson's team does not mean that it will collapse entirely. At least resist for a while, and it's no problem at all.

Kobe Bryant led his teammates on offense throughout the first half of the quarter, and he seemed to know that he couldn't beat the Thunder alone. Only by scheduling the state of his teammates can he compete with Sanshao.

After that, the Zen master made the first changes to Van Gundy. He replaced Bynum with the more flexible Odom and pushed Gasol into the centre-forward position.

As a result, the Lakers' interior defense will be affected slightly, but their offense will be stronger.

Odom and Gasol, two ranged men, constantly made off-ball blocks for Kobe, and Kobe Bryant spared no effort to intersperse between the gaps, hoping to run out of opportunities.

As a result, the Thunder's interior defense was completely disrupted. Odom's agile movement made Morris tired. Odom knows how to handle the ball more correctly, which Bynum can't match.

Artest's containment and Fischer's containment, Odom and Gasol should cover. In this way, when Kobe Bryant received the ball and was ready to perform the shot. The only thing that stood in front of him was the basket!

This is the best mode of operation of the Lakers, and when the Lakers are in such good shape, even if the Thunder changes their strategy and even if they are good offensively, they still can't catch up with the Lakers in terms of score.

Kobe Bryant and Anjie went off the court almost at the same time, because for both teams, they are the core!

Although the second lineup of the two sides is not so organized, the chaotic battle cannot be said to be unexciting. In short, compared to the two duels of Staples, the level and excitement of this game have been greatly improved.

27-22, the Los Angeles Lakers took the lead in the first quarter as always. Trying to overtake the defending champion in the first quarter is a difficult task to complete. At least three games have been played, and the Thunder have never done that.

Despite a five-point lead and a normal transition so far, Phil Jackson's expression was not the slightest bit of pleasure. He knows that the Thunder's system with the center as the core has not yet burst out at full strength!

Find a way to solve Anjie to ensure victory!

The Lakers and Thunder, who are finally in good shape, and Kobe Bryant and Anjie, who are both the tactical core of the team. The first quarter of the Western Conference semifinals held in the Blue Ocean was just the tip of the iceberg of exciting confrontations.

The center point of the Thunder team's tactics has not yet begun to shine! An Jie can do more than that! )
