Chapter 296 [Repeated Surprises]
The Warriors missed a shot, and "Zen Master" Jackson called a timeout.
He exclaimed, "This is Los Angeles, it's our home stadium, have you forgotten that?" The defense was arranged before the game, so you don't know how to adjust it? Zhou Xuan averaged less than 16 points per game! Derrick down, Jordan (Farmar) on ......"
Su Qun said: "To strengthen the defense, the Lakers first have to make substitutions, and the Warriors are too fast. ”
Yang Jian said: "Today may be able to tell the winner. When Yao Ming and the Rockets entered the playoffs for the first time, the opponent happened to be the Lakers, and the Rockets relied on Francis's super play to grab a victory, and were eliminated 4-1, if the Lakers can't adjust their mentality, they will be eliminated 4-1 today. The Warriors just happened to face the Rockets' old rivals, which was too coincidental. ”
Su Qun said with a smile: "In the case of an incomplete lineup in the regular season, the Warriors have won a victory against Magic, and now the team that qualifies in the East is likely to be Magic, as long as they beat the Lakers, they may win the championship in the end, this is really an incredible season." ”
Old Nelson didn't expect Zhou Xuan to play like this, his hand style was too smooth. He said: "It is estimated that the Lakers are going to make substitutions, or Zhou continues to control the ball, grabs the rebound and pays attention to the counterattack, and shoots in 5 seconds, this one we want to win." ”
The game continued, and the Lakers strengthened their defense against Zhou Xuan, letting Ariza go with him, and Famar faced Ellis, trying not to let the Warriors burst out. Jackson and Ellis missed three points respectively, but the Lakers' offense was average, and the Warriors always led the score.
Nelson Sr. saw that the interior offense was unfavorable and replaced Zach? Randolph, in place of Turyaf.
As soon as the fat man got up, he immediately hit Gasol under the basket, enriching the Warriors' tactics. He and Marion went out to cover together, constantly interspersed with runs, and also made the Lakers defense take care of one or the other.
In order to prevent air cuts, the Lakers switched to 122 area defense. The Warriors did the same, and the game quickly turned into a three-point battle between the two teams. The Warriors replaced Ellis and Jackson, replaced Azubuke and Morrow, and the four outside shooters took turns firing, and the Lakers Kobe, Famar, and Ariza also fired frequently from the periphery to catch up with some scores.
Both teams attacked well in the first quarter, with the Warriors leading 38-32. Zhou Xuan hit a quick shot on the right side of the fast break 1 minute and 36 seconds later, scoring 18 points and 2 assists in a single quarter.
The difference was not much, but Barkley said: "The Lakers are going to lose if they continue to play like this, and they have fallen into the rhythm of the Warriors." However, it is difficult for the Warriors to find a rhythm, Zhou Xuan's adjustment on the court is perfect, as soon as the opponent strengthens his defense, he reduces his peripheral shooting, divides the ball in time, and only plays himself when he is on the fast break, but the Lakers lack a person who controls the rhythm, Fisher can, but he can't defend again. ”
"The second quarter is really when the Lakers are put to the test," Smith said. ”
In the second quarter, the elder Nelson surprised the "Zen master" again. Zhou Xuan did not rest, playing with substitute players, Randolph and Margeti on the inside, and Azubuuk and Morrow on the outside.
The Lakers sent Farmar and Shannon? Brown, Wharton, and Powell were four substitutes, and only Gasol was a starter.
Barkley was amused when he saw the players on both sides. "Looking at the lineup, I feel like the Lakers are ahead by more than 20 points, so now it's up to the top. The depth of the Warriors' second lineup today is terrifying. ”
Smith laughed: "This was the starting lineup for the Warriors during the period when the lineup was not complete, and Margeti also missed several games, and Biderins is still there. Now the Warriors are definitely more aggressive. ”
The Lakers attacked first, the Warriors continued to use a compression defense, Farmar passed to Walton first, who hoisted to Gasol, and the Lakers used an off-ball cover on another occasion. However, no matter how you block and dismantle, the Warriors are not in a position, and as soon as Gasol gets the ball, Morrow lets go of Brown to compress the defense.
Gasol immediately passed the ball out, and Brown received the ball and Zhou Xuan switched to defense and let go of Famar.
Brown didn't think about passing the ball at all, he shot directly from the outside, Zhou Xuan jumped on the side to block, Brown jumped and shot very high, but the head was almost accurate and popped out of the frame.
"Zen Master" shook his head again on the sidelines, Brown claimed to be a two-way guard, but it was only a "claim", the Lakers gave him a chance, playing an average of 12 minutes per game in the regular season, and almost this playing time in the playoffs, with only 0 assists. 9, he can only see the person in front of him, and if his teammate is on the side, he basically can't pass the ball.
Randolphka, Margeti took the rebound from the other side, and just wanted to counterattack, he found that Zhou Xuan retreated to get the ball.
Now that the lineup has an obvious advantage and can play with a success rate, why should it be fast? And Brown and Famar are on the floor, faster than when Fisher was there, but the Warriors are slower because of Randolph. Zhou Xuan calculated very clearly, slowly passed the half, and made a code.
Azubuuk and Morrow pulled into the bottom corners of both sides, Margeti in the middle came out to cover and blocked Famar, and Zhou Xuan broke through from the right. Gasol couldn't get out of the low position with Randolph on the left side, so he could only go up with Powell, and Zhou Xuan led to the right, thinking of several possibilities.
Farmar didn't come up and singled Powell; Shoot three points on the side of the defense; Famar came up and drew the bag to Margeti. Margeti was also smart enough to cut inside and was ready to play on the perimeter. Morrow drew Brown's defense from the baseline, leaving a lot of space on the right side.
The teammates saw that Zhou Xuan played well in the first quarter and wanted him to score more.
He had already gone through the Powell information given by the scouts and found the weaknesses. Watching Powell play, I always feel that he is powerless, he has no height on the inside line, and he has no speed on the outside. Zhou Xuan leaned over his right shoulder and took a small step, and Powell immediately retreated, fearing that he would be overcome. Zhou Xuan pulled the ball back and stepped back, and scored a 60-degree jumper. 40 to 32.
Su Qun shouted: "Zhou Xuan's personal 20th point in this game, he was completely crazy, and Kobe Bryant only scored 10 points." ”
Yang Jian said: "Zhou Xuan averaged 14 points per game in the playoffs. 3 points, it will definitely improve after this game. I think his scoring ability has always been underrated, because of his selflessness, he is always pass-oriented, in fact, he shoots inside the three-point line without dead corners, especially the 60 and 45 degrees on both sides are accurate. ”
Su Qun smiled: "Just now, a netizen sent a text message asking 'Will Zhou Xuan play in the Asian Championships'?" This is not certain, I personally feel that it should not, and there is no news of him entering the national team at present, and the level of competition in Asia is relatively low. However, if he plays, the Chinese team should be able to play an amazing attack, and finally someone can connect the whole team. ”
The Lakers attacked, and they couldn't find any space from the pass, and they could only hand it over to Gasol for a single after the most, Morrow wrapped it again, the ball passed out of the line, Zhou Xuan blocked Brown's three points, this time Brown passed to Famar, Azubuuk changed defenses, and Famar shot three points and hit iron.
Randolph grabbed the rebound in the backcourt, handed the ball to Zhou Xuan to organize, and Margeti covered in the frontcourt. Famar's physique was too poor and was completely blocked, Zhou Xuan still took the right side, exactly the same choice as just now, even the movements were the same, his right shoulder shook slightly, Powell thought to himself, "This time get closer", took a small step forward, Zhou Xuan immediately swept past him at full speed, Gasol let go of Randolph's defense, Zhou Xuan almost didn't jump, hit the board with a low hand and picked up the basket, avoiding Gasol's block.
Even if the ball doesn't score, Randolph is easy to grab rebounds, but Zhou Xuan's hand is too good, although the shot is a little far, the ball still hits the board and falls into the basket. 42 to 32.
"Zen Master" did not immediately replace, this is just 4 rounds, if the Lakers' bench can't withstand even 3 minutes, then even if Kobe Bryant and others are replaced, will they win the Warriors every game? "The Zen Master" was skeptical, and he wanted the players to do more than just rely on the stars, so let them adjust themselves.
As a result, in the third attack, Gasol desperately was caught and shot, forced to turn to the middle, relied on the height advantage to suppress Randolph, ignored Morrow's side defense, and hooked the ball in. 42 to 34.
The Warriors attacked, Margeti came out to cover, and Famar felt like he was going to be blocked again, a little distracted, and didn't press. Unexpectedly, Zhou Xuan's choice was more direct this time. Shot directly from outside the three-point line, and shot quickly without jumping.
THE 188CM TALL FAMAR HAS EXCELLENT BOUNCE POWER, AND HE CAN DUNK WITH BOTH HANDS WHEN JUMPING UNDER THE BASKET, ZHOU XUAN CHANGED THE SHOOTING RHYTHM WHEN HE DEALT WITH THIS KIND OF BOUNCING SUPERMAN, FAMAR REACTED SLOWLY, AND THE BALL HAD ALREADY FLOWN OVER HIS HEAD WHEN HE JUMPED UP.
Today Zhou Xuan is divine, the ball is scored again, and it is a hollow! 45 to 34.
Barkley shouted: "It's terrible, Zhou Xuan scored another three points, 25 points, Zhou Xuan is ready to send the Lakers out in a cruel way, he has to keep playing I don't know how many points Lu Dao can score." Everyone has a good hand at times, and this time he is unstoppable! ”
Smith said: "The Lakers really have a big problem right now, they are close to elimination, the score is behind, the players are sitting on the sidelines but they are not shouting hard to cheer, there seems to be no sense of urgency. The Warriors' home court was a different story entirely. ”
Now the players on the sidelines of the Warriors are also cheering, and every time Zhou Xuan shoots a ball, some people stand up and applaud.
Some people in the audience also began to applaud Zhou Xuan, the Olsen sisters bore the brunt, and Robert Jr.? Downey, he is also a fan of Zhou Xuan, although some fans say that Kobe Bryant is the "Iron Man" of the NBA.
Kobe couldn't sit still and said to Jackson, "Phil, let me play, I want to play the rest of the game." ”
"Do you want to win, or do you want to score points with him, if you want to win, I suggest you keep your rhythm." Jackson asked, looking at Kobe.
"I want to win." Bryant replied.
Jackson nodded, ready to replace Kobe Bryant and Odom. He sighed inwardly. "Zhou Xuan attacks when he should attack, and if he doesn't feel good, he will use passing to help the team, and he can also see who is more efficient on the field. But Kobe, most of the time his only adjustment is scoring. ”
