On the evening of the 16th, the Lakers, who had no way out, broke out with amazing combat effectiveness.

At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, under the leadership of Kobe, who was given high hopes by the "Zen Master", the Lakers hammered a wave of 10-2 small climax of the Raptors as soon as they came up.

And Maddie, who originally wanted to prove himself by brushing Kobe, could have expected it......

Kobe, who was defended by Su Feng as a little blacksmith in the first two battles, would go out with a "lock hanging" in the G3 battle?

In Su Feng's previous life, when Kobe Bryant felt better, even if you were in the bag for him, it might not be good for him.

So tonight, it's really not that Maddie can't defend well, it's just that Maddie, the unlucky kid, happened to hit Kobe's muzzle.

However......

For fans who have watched the first two games, how can they think about so many details?

In the eyes of fans, they really don't understand why Davis arranged for Maddie to defend Kobe.

TNT TV, and even the commentator Derek questioned: "The Raptors' setup tonight is simply unpredictable, could it be that Coach John Davis has already started to practice for the next game?" ”

One thing to say, if it were other coaches, then maybe the fans wouldn't think much about it.

But if it's Davis, then ......

Isn't it unusual to use the finals to train troops?

On the court, after Kobe Bryant threw the fairy ball in a row, Davis took the initiative to ask for a timeout on the Raptors' bench.

And Datianchao TV, during the pause, Director Zhang also complained: "Although Maddie's defense has always been good, but tonight compared with Su Feng, Maddie was compared by Su Feng." ”

On the side, Su Junyang echoed: "After all, Su Feng is already the best defensive player, and it is normal for Maddie to have a gap with him." ”

Get......

If Su Feng can get the FMVP this year, then Maddie will definitely have to take the credit.

Great Western Forum Arena, after a pause, the game resumes.

And just when people thought Davis would make adjustments to correct his "wrong set-up", as in G2, Davis didn't make any adjustments after the timeout tonight.

The people who saw this scene were stunned.

Could it be that every coach will start to "practice meditation" after evolving into a super coach?

Cough......

I have to say that as the Raptors are getting better and better this season, they have gained more and more "new fans" recently.

Because where did Davis start "meditating" today?

If you think of the game of basketball as a march and a battle, then it is actually the most stupid behavior to mess up with oneself compared to tactical adjustments.

Tonight, it seems that because of Kobe's excellent performance, the Lakers took the lead after the opening, but in fact, the rhythm has been on the Raptors' side.

Therefore, in Davis's view, the purpose of his request for a timeout is just to interrupt Kobe's rhythm, not to be hammered to death by the Lakers if they don't change, as people think.

In addition, as Maddy's mentor after entering the NBA, no one knows better than Davis how good Maddy's defense is.

Davis knows that if even Maddie can't stop Kobe Bryant tonight, then letting Su Feng defend Kobe Bryant at this time will not only seriously hit Maddy's self-esteem, but also, in a sense, boost the morale of the Lakers.

Therefore, rather than tactical adjustments, Davis prefers to choose to trust these players on the field.

On the pitch, Davis' trust soon paid off.

Without having to defend the opponent's offensive core, Su Feng, who was liberated tonight, focused all his attention on how to brush ...... Ahh

And under the influence of Su Feng's offense, looking back, because of the winner's defense against Su Feng, Kobe's feel gradually began to decline.

As the saying goes, one trades off the other.

A team like the Raptors who are good at playing fast break is not afraid to trail their opponents by eight points in the game.

Because as long as they can hold on for a few rounds, they can quickly chase back the score with fast breaks.

In contrast, the Lakers, who were fighting with their backs, after the score was pressed close by the Raptors, it was difficult for them not to make mistakes because of tension and pressure.

Coupled with O'Neal's failure to grasp the line of life that Kobe Bryant won for him, so, at the end of the first quarter, the Raptors overtook the Lakers by 1 point 29-28.

Unfortunately, in the first quarter of the game, just as O'Neal was about to hold the Sky Breaker Hammer and poke a big transparent hole in the Raptors' interior line......

Before he could make a move, the Raptors made the first move.

In the middle of the first quarter, after the Raptors made free throws, Williams and Joe Smith took turns putting O'Neal to the free throw line.

As a result, O'Neal, who had a free throw shooting rate of nearly 8 percent in pre-game training, missed 6 free throws in a row, which was equivalent to giving the Raptors three fast break opportunities for nothing.

Throughout this series, O'Neal's free throws are definitely the best sixth man on the Raptors' side.

Slash the shark when you are ahead, and you can consolidate the lead.

Slashing the shark during a stalemate can break the deadlock.

Cut the shark when you are behind, you can chase points.

In short, the cut is done.

In the second quarter of the game, the Raptors continued to put pressure on the Lakers.

Carter and Curry Sr. hit a three-pointer in the left and right corners after coming off the bench.

On the other hand, Kobe, who was eager to chase points, helped the board again and again.

On the court, the Lakers players can be said to be more and more anxious, while the Raptors players are more and more relaxed.

And because the team's offense has stalled, in order to help the team tide over the crisis......

The impatient Kobe Bryant increased his efforts to defend Su Feng.

And now, the Lakers have suffered.

Because on the court, after deceiving Kobe Bryant by grabbing the ball with one hand, Su Feng leaned on Kobe Bryant and completed a classic foul.

And then, in the next attack, Su Feng used the same technique to defraud Kobe Bryant again in almost the same position.

In this way, because he received one foul in the first quarter, in the early part of the second quarter, Kobe, who received two more fouls, had to be temporarily transferred off the court by the "Zen Master".

TNT TV, Smith said with emotion: "Although Kobe has made great progress this season, he is obviously not as mature as Sue in terms of mentality. ”

Derek said: "I don't think Kobe Bryant is to blame, because his opponent is too cunning. ”

Although because of the age and version, Su Feng can't use his body hair to cheat the whistle like a bearded man in the future, it doesn't mean that Su Feng can't cheat some fouls through his acting skills.

Coupled with his understanding of Kobe, with this young Kobe gradually coming up, Su Feng could easily judge his defensive movements.

Therefore, in the second quarter of the game, when he sat back on the bench, although he hated it in his heart, this time, Kobe Bryant could only vent by biting his jersey.

No way.

When Kobe Bryant was defeated by Su Feng, in desperation, the "Zen Master" had to replace O'Neill to fight to the death.

And this slender and fast shark, although it is in a period of exhaustion after the outbreak, is trying to prove itself tonight......

O'Neal is still the problem that the Raptors can't solve.

Su Feng knows very well that next season, no matter what, the Raptors will have to find a way to get a meat shield player.

Because the "shark cutting tactic" can control O'Neill for a while, but it can't control him for a lifetime.

In this round of the series, it seems that the Raptors have played O'Neal badly through the "shark cutting tactic", but in fact, because of last summer's indulgence, O'Neal will always lack a breath in the game, which is the fundamental reason why the Raptors' group of "professional shark cutters" can control him.

On the court, in the second quarter of the game, O'Neal's warmed free throw shooting rate also slightly comforted the heart of Kobe Bryant, who was sitting on the bench biting his jersey.

It's just that......

Such comfort, with O'Neal's declining physical fitness and the Raptors' sudden three-point rain, soon turned into a deep self-blame.

No matter in his past or present life, Kobe's strong character has never changed.

So, sit on the sidelines and watch the team step by step towards demise.......

For Bryant, who turned 21 in August this year, it was definitely a feeling that was too painful to describe in words.

……

At halftime, the Raptors led the Lakers 59-47.

In the third quarter of the game, the Lakers increased their outside shots, trying to chase points like the Raptors.

However, under the watchful defense of the Raptors, a group of swing people, even if the Lakers players can shoot three-pointers, most of them are forced to shoot.

Datianchao TV, Director Zhang, who saw this scene, complained: "Les, this is not Su Feng's life, but he has Su Feng's disease, what do you say this is not blind casting?" ”

Su Junyang also sighed: "The Lakers are in a hurry, and there is no rule at all." ”

The Great Western Forum Arena, the heart of Lake Honey on this night, can be said to be as exciting as drinking ice sprite in the big winter.

When the can is opened, it feels like it will be refreshing to drink.

But after opening the can, there is a feeling of coolness.

On the court, after the Raptors' lead gradually took the lead to 20 points, Bryant, who refused to give up, increased his personal offense in an attempt to turn the tide.

And the Raptors didn't cover it, so they let Maddie go head-to-head with him.

As a result, Kobe, who had to face Maddie and Su Feng at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, can be described as walking on foot in a thorn tonight......

And O'Neill's side is also uncomfortable.

According to ESPN statistics, O'Neal's running distance in the first two games of the Finals combined is almost equal to the distance he usually runs in the last four games.

Therefore, this game has been played so far, and this fathead fish can also be said to be a chrysanthemum everywhere.

In the fourth quarter of the game, after the Lakers were hopeless in chasing points, even Phil Jackson, who had five championships in hand, could only look up at the sky and accept the reality.

In the end, 113-98, the Raptors overcame Los Angeles and almost locked up the championship of the 98/99 season with a score of 3-0.

For the game, Bryant scored his highest 33 points in a single game so far in the Finals, and O'Neal also contributed 29 points and 18 rebounds.

On the Raptors' side, Su Feng got a comprehensive performance of 31 points, 11 rebounds, 2 steals, 2 assists and 1 block.

"The Old Rascal" paddled in the first half and gave it his all in the second half, scoring 20 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists.

Carter came off the bench to score 19 points, while Nash and Curry Sr. scored 11 and 12 points, respectively.

As for Maddie, who applied for a single-defense Kobe Bryant before the game......

Alas......

Data or something, it doesn't matter at all.

The important thing is that through this game, Maddie proved how high Su Feng's best defensive player is really high.

Who is the number one general around Su Feng?

Anyway, no matter what others thought, at least after this game, Su Feng felt Maddie's loyalty from the bottom of his heart.

After the game, both the autistic O'Neal and the biting off jersey Kobe Bryant were not interviewed.

The other Lakers players who were interviewed said something inconsequential.

Instead, Fisher revealed an interesting piece of information.

That is, in order to prove that O'Neal worked free throws, Fisher cleared O'Neal with a crying voice: "I think Shaq is too wronged.

You can't negate his efforts because of his free throws!

In fact, after the first game, in order to improve the free throw, he even tried to hold the urinal, but the effect was not good, so he did not use it in the game. ”

In addition, Fisher also said that Kobe Bryant is definitely the hardest working player he has ever seen.

This year, the Lakers fell behind the Raptors 0-3 in the Finals, which had nothing to do with the performance of O'Neal and Kobe, purely because the Raptors were too strong for anyone to beat.

I have to say that Fisher, who is good at performing off the field, was really useful on this night.

Because even if the lake honey accepts Fisher's statement or not, but at least, Fisher's statement will make the lake honey's broken heart feel better.

Compared with the Lakers, who have begun to find the reason for the loss in the finals, on the Raptors' side, Su Feng was asked the most question after the game, that is, whether he was confident to take the Lakers away in 4 games.

"To be honest, from a personal point of view, I naturally hope that the holidays will come soon.

Because this year's schedule is very intensive, we are all tired by now.

However, considering that Michael will retire after this year's finals, if he really wants to play a few more games, I would like to. In an interview, Su Feng said to reporters with a smile.

Hearing this, the reporters were once again shocked by Su Feng's emotional intelligence.

Because the good and the bad are all said in one go.

If you win, you just want to take a vacation.

If you lose, you just want to play a few more games with Jordan......

As long as he is not overturned in the case of a 3-0 lead, Su Feng's rhetoric is simply invincible.

As for the overturn if the Lakers are down 0-3......

Hong Kong Zhen, in Su Feng's opinion, it is impossible to replace the president with a "joke".

Because after the first three games, the current Lakers cannot be compared with the Raptors in terms of heart and state.

Of course, in order to be undefeated and have a few more days of vacation, after the first three battles, on the 17th, in the training session of the Raptors, Su Feng was unprecedentedly serious.

In Su Feng's view, the next game is the best time to take the Lakers.

It's not too late to open champagne or something when the dust settles.

On the other hand, compared with the Lakers before the start of the Finals, the morale of the entire Lakers team has completely fallen to the bottom......

……

PS: It's a little late, it's the end of the season, and I took a little time today, and I went through the outline again. Alas, the plate is too big, and it takes a lot of brains! (Keep kneeling and begging for a monthly pass!) Give you the motivation to burst your liver? Boom! ）
