Chapter 159: The Sir's Conspiracy

After Li Du returned to defense, Kobe Bryant smiled: "Li, there is no way, right?" People don't accept at all! ā€

Kobe Bryant saw that the Jazz just gave up on Li Du's interior defense. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info In other words, they will strengthen Li Du's outside defense, limit his running, and limit his back offense, but if Li Du rushes into the interior, the Jazz will not care, and would rather Li Du score two points than let him affect the Jazz's players.

Li Du pursed his lips, "This is also called strategy?" They don't defend, better! I'm going to kill the inside every time! See what they do! ā€

When attacking, the Jazz also changed their strategy, as long as they saw that it was Li Du defending Delon, Delon passed the ball to Boozer after blocking and dismantling, and then Boozer feint and then passed the ball to others. This avoids a head-to-head confrontation between the Jazz players and Li Du.

In a team like the Jazz where everyone can attack and everyone can handle the ball, even if there is no DeLong to score, it doesn't matter, DeLong just needs to make sure the team's tactics run smoothly.

On the Lakers' side, Li Du really rushes inside every time. Brewer was almost cried by him, Li Du followed Jordan's example, grabbing the ball with one hand, but his palm is particularly large, and he can take the ball back when he is halfway through the shooting action like Jordan. Brewer ate several feints in a row, and each time Li Du successfully broke through the inside line!

But in this way, the Lakers' offense has a problem! Everyone stood to watch Li Du's performance, and even Kobe Bryant subconsciously stopped. Although Li Du can score almost every offense, he scored 14 points in the first quarter! However, the Lakers only scored 21 points in the first quarter, but trailed the Jazz by 5 points!

The Zen master saw the problem and immediately replaced Li Du. He touched his beard and muttered to himself: "Sloan, this old guy is really insidious, if we really treat Li Du as a strong point, and attack him with every ball, the state of others will be affected, and they will lose instead!" ā€

Li Du also didn't understand after he got off the court, obviously his offensive efficiency was higher than that of the Jazz, why did the score fall behind the Lakers?

The Zen master saw Li Du's expression and knew that this kid didn't understand, so he gently put his arm on Li Du's shoulder and said to him: "Li, don't you understand, why is your offensive efficiency obviously very high, but our team is lagging behind?" ā€

Li Du nodded with a gloomy face, and the Zen master explained: "Your current shooting percentage is 6 of 10 shots, and the shooting rate of the Lakers team is 10 of 18 shots. The Jazz team is 12 of 20 shots, and they are using the strong point that everyone wants to beat you, while ignoring the rest of the Lakers, so that you can affect the state of your teammates! You know, in the game, the players' offense and defense are unified, and if the offensive state can't come out, the defensive state won't be very good, at least that's the case for our team. When we give you all the offense, it means that we are suppressing everyone else at the same time, and on the defensive end, the Jazz try to avoid you, and the other teammates are not in good shape defensively, so they can benefit from this and the other! Do you understand? ā€

Li Du was shocked, it turned out that there was still such a statement! Usually the Lakers' offense is controlled by Kobe, and he only needs to be used as an endpoint, so he didn't pay attention to this. And Li Du stood up from the defensive end, for him, the offense and defense have no effect. This time, the Lakers started with him and ignored the others, and he realized that he didn't pay attention to his teammates before!

"Coach, what then?" Li Du asked anxiously, he didn't want to lose the game because of himself.

The Zen master smiled: "It's very simple! Sloan, this old guy is just bullying you for your lack of experience, in fact, he has no way to do it, as long as you pay attention to cooperate with other teammates when attacking, improve offensive efficiency, or improve offensive efficiency when you attack, the Jazz will lose! Let a person with strong offensive ability let go and attack, if there is no way, he will not be able to do this! ā€

With the teaching of the Zen master, after playing in the second quarter, Li Du suddenly changed his style of play, he either went to run and tear off the Jazz's defensive formation, or tried to avoid jumping shots in singles and hit the basket directly! The Lakers' offensive efficiency improved in an instant, and with three minutes left in the first half, the Lakers had tied the score.

Li Du quietly told Kobe Bryant what the Zen master said to him, and then asked, "Boss, is there any good way to kill them directly!" I'm so angry that I'm being used by them! ā€

Bryant smiled and said, "It's okay, don't you see that even when you're behind, I still let Derrick give you all the balls?" I know your offensive ability, and if they dare to do it the whole time, I'm sure they will still lose in the end! ā€

"But ......" After thinking about it, Kobe patted Li Du and said: "Since you want to destroy them so much, I have a way, but now there is not enough time, let's play in the second half." When verse 3 comes up, destroy them in one fell swoop! ā€

Li Du listened to Kobe Bryant's words very much, since the boss said that there was a way, it would be good to listen to the boss's arrangement at halftime.

At the end of the first half, the gap between the two sides was very small, and the Lakers came from behind, only leading the Jazz by 2 points. Luckily, Delon and Boozer returned to normal in this game, and although Delon did not score and had few assists, he kept the team running smoothly. Boozer, on the other hand, had 12 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists!

Boozer's ability to get so many assists in the first half has something to do with the fact that he has become a turning point for the Jazz. But all that changed after the start of the third quarter!

I don't know what Kobe Bryant said to Li Du at halftime, after the third quarter came up, Li Du did not attack with the ball again, but began to run. Originally, Li Du was not unusual for running and shooting, this was originally his best way of scoring, and the Jazz had already prepared.

But Li Du's current running position is all running towards the narrowest space, whether it is Brewer, Delong, or others, when they change defenses, Li Du will always suddenly take a big step, and people will appear two or three meters away, and there is Gasol or Bynum between him and the defender!

Li Du, who has no one to defend, almost hits 100 three-point shots! Just four minutes into the third quarter, Li Du made 4 of 5 three-point shots, and the score gap between the two teams quickly widened to 8 points!

Sloan hurriedly asked for a timeout, and Li Du's movement suddenly became unstable, which made him very anxious. If Li Du's three-point shot is not limited, the Jazz have no hope of winning! But he is also very strange, why can the Jazz still keep up with Li Du's running position in the first two quarters, and at the beginning of the third quarter, it is still the same defensive method, and Li Du is still the same running method, why can't the Jazz suddenly keep up?

Sloan thought about it for a long time, and finally found that it seemed that all the problems were the sudden step that Li Du took after getting rid of the defender!
