"Coach. Big Ben's starter strategy doesn't seem to be working well right now. ”

"yes, it's better to let Campbell and O'Neal play together, so that at least O'Neal won't play so badly."

Harris frowned, Ma Long didn't expect that he could have such a high efficiency in this game purely by relying on mid-range shots.

"Kobe, what do you think?"

"Go to Hori, let's fight!" Offense is the best defense, and since you can't defend against the Jazz's pick-and-roll, you have to score more points than them.

Three-point shooting is always more efficient than mid-range shooting! And the Jazz are not a team that is good at playing fast and counterattacking, so they don't have to worry about being quickly counterattacked after missing three-point shots.

"Well, good idea." Harris patted his thigh, I didn't think of that.

"Robert, get ready to play."

Jerry Sloan's eyes widened when he saw Horry play.

Figured out a change of trick so quickly? Harris's ability to adapt is so fast?

Oops, the combination of Horry and O'Neal has not been rehearsed, and Horry's appearance has made the entire defensive system need to make a change.

Let the players play first, and if it doesn't work, call a timeout immediately. Jerry Sloan thought so.

A shark shoots! This is the Lakers' strongest offensive lineup, which is fully suitable for both Kobe Bryant and O'Neal, and can play their most offensive destructive lineup.

Kobe Bryant and O'Neal's offensive containment can benefit every player on the perimeter.

It's an offensive system with dynastic potential.

The Jazz still blocked, Kobe Bryant went around the back, Stockton passed to the empty cut Malone, and Malone hit a layup against Horry.

Horry and Malone have countless orders of magnitude difference in physical fitness, and he has no good way to face Malone's blocking.

Bryant attacked with the ball, watched the Jazz half of the court with Horry empty inside, and handed the ball to O'Neal in the box, and this time O'Neal had plenty of time to make a move, and he shook off Greg Ostertag with a beautiful turn and hit the shot.

The Jazz also blocked and dismantled, Malone cut to receive the ball, encountered a bag and passed to Hornacek on the outside, and hit a shot.

If it weren't for the switch, Bryant would have thought the pick-and-roll would be unsolvable.

One move is eaten all over the world, the quality of Malone's blocking and dismantling is too high, plus the ball carrier and the blocker can shoot suddenly, can attack and organize, and the Jazz's blocking and dismantling offense is too difficult to defend.

Fortunately, the Lakers' offense Jazz also couldn't prevent it, Kobe and O'Neal played a hand-to-hand at the top of the arc and hit the basket, Malone made up for the defense, and Kobe scored a three-point shot from the outside of Horry.

"That's the offense I'm going to do!" Harris threw punches, created offensive space from the twin stars, and split the ball after Kobe Bryant's defense, and that's his basketball philosophy.

Superstars cooperate, create space to shoot, run, and share the ball.

It was the perfect offense for Harris.

The two teams then went against each other in the third quarter, creating good shooting space with almost every attack. Both teams combined for extremely high scoring in the third quarter.

Single-quarter score: Lakers 35:33 Jazz. This kind of offensive performance is very rare in this era, the audience on the sidelines is addicted, even the Bulls have never played against the Jazz, this is the first time they have seen the Jazz in full offensive state, and the Lakers are actually more capable of scoring.

With 7-of-11 three-pointers in the first quarter, Kobe and O'Neal created plenty of open three-point opportunities in the space they tore up inside.

If you don't help defense, then the one-on-one state Kobe and O'Neal are incomprehensible.

Bryant had 8 points and 6 assists in the third quarter, and 80% of the team's offense was related to him.

Three-point scoring efficiency is better than two-point score, and Jerry Sloan is also very satisfied with his team's offense, but repeated adjustments to the defense can't prevent the Lakers' three-point rain.

At the end of the third quarter, the score of the two sides had come to a 76-76 draw.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Jazz sent all the starters, and Jerry Slond showed his cards.

Even if you are equal to me in the top three, and the schedule is so intensive, you who just fought with the supersonic yesterday have how much physical strength can you fight with us?

It's a conspiracy, Harris thought. Or choose to rotate according to the regular and send a substitute to play the opening game of the fourth quarter.

Of course, the Jazz who are in hot form are not something that the Lakers bench can prevent, especially without Horry's organization, and the Lakers bench was beaten 11:2 by the Jazz in 3 minutes. Harris called two timeouts in a row but still did not stop the bleeding, so he had no choice but to change to the starter.

Just after a three-minute break, the score became 78:87. This is a very big blow to the momentum of the Lakers' starters.

And the Jazz's offense is no longer able to defend, whether it is Malone, Stockton and Hornacek, the three cores have already been shot.

Kobe Bryant hit 3 difficult goals in a row after he came on the court, but this did not move back to the score, Malone stubbornly pulled out two mid-range shots in front of Horry, so that Kobe's strength was in vain.

Kobe Bryant began to connect with his teammates, assisting O'Neal to score a dunk under the basket, and Eddie Jones, who was in the open position, missed a key shot.

With 3 minutes left in the game, the Lakers 88:94 Jazz.

Damn, are you going to lose if you're so confused?

The score is behind, the opponent feels hot, and his own physical strength is not enough. This is simply too bad a situation to be.

Bryant didn't give up, crossed steps, shook off Brian Russell, smashed inside, took to the air, twisted his body into a tomahawk, and chiseled the ball into the basket despite Greg Ostertag, who was helping to defend.

Tearing the basket with one hand, as if trying to pull the basket down.

The 2.18-meter Greg Ostertag rushed over, and he couldn't retract his strength and slammed into Kobe Bryant, who was hanging in the air.

"Toot! 2+1！ ”

Bryant was hit by a 127-kilogram inside line, fell from the air, and fortunately landed with his butt smartly to avoid an injury hazard.

Fortunately, the defense was not fast enough, and the collision only occurred after the dunk, and if he was hit by Greg Ostertag during the dunk, Kobe Bryant would not dare to imagine the consequences.

"Kobe, give up." Stockton didn't want to see Kobe Bryant bury his career for a regular season game, this way of playing was too dangerous, and he saw countless talented players bury their bright futures because of this.

"Giving up is not in my dictionary." O'Neal and Horry pulled Kobe Bryant together, and Kobe moved his body, feeling that it was no big deal, and steadily scored the free throw.

Lakers 91:94 Jazz.

Stockton controlled the ball steadily, he began to press the rhythm, Kobe Bryant's ferocious pressing still pressed the offensive time to 8 seconds, and then played a block with Malone to avoid Kobe's defensive shot.

91：96。

There are 2 minutes left in the game.

Kobe dribbled to the frontcourt, Jerry Sloan directly called the bag, and Stockton and Russell besieged Kobe back and forth.

Kobe Bryant reluctantly jumped up and passed the ball to Bowen, who received the ball in a panic and didn't dare to make a shot, and passed it back to Horry. Mr. Big Heart, Jump, Mid Shot.

Basketball hits the board into the frame.

Stockton still presses the rhythm and has a 3-point advantage, which can crush the Lakers!

Malone cut to the basket after blocking and dismantling, caught the ball and made a jumper, and hit again.

There is 1 minute left in the game! 5 points behind.

Sloan directly fouled Kobe Bryant to the free throw line, and Bryant hit the free throw.

Stockton pressed the clock and played a full 24 seconds again, and that's where a top-tier point guard comes in, and he's a natural master of pacing.

The Lakers had no choice but to foul, and the two sides entered the free throw contest stage, and Stockton's 85% free throw shooting rate made every free throw.

Defeated, the Lakers lost to the Jazz by 3 points.

The audience ended at 94:97. The Lakers picked up their third loss of the season against the Jazz.

If it weren't for the amount of energy consumed in yesterday's game against the SuperSonics, if he had been on Horry at the beginning, if he had sent all the starters at the start of the fourth quarter, the outcome might have been different.

But life is made up of so many coincidences.
