Chapter 405: Double Suppression!! (3/3)
After Li Feng hit this three-pointer, the cheers on the scene just started to rise to a higher level, and then rose to another level!
The shouts and cheers that raised the volume twice in a row made many people look at the audience, and some looked at the big screen before they knew what was happening.
Reporter: "In the previous game with the Hawks, Coach Wharton, the current head coach of the Lakers, adopted the triangle offensive tactics you used during the Bulls and Lakers days!"
In the end, with this tactic, they finally defeated the Atlanta Hawks! What do you think about this? Did you personally instruct Wharton to do this? ”
Jackson: "You know. In the previous two seasons, the Milwaukee Bucks used Coach Winter's triangle offense many times and finally won the season championship!
At the beginning, their team had a very outstanding Asian defender.
You should know what I'm talking about. Wharton called me two days ago and told me about it.
He was excited. It was Li Feng who used the triangle offense to resolve the crisis of the game with the Eagles! ”
Reporter: "Didn't you invent the triangle offensive?" ”
Jackson: "Now the camera is focused on our ~ triangle offensive tactics, which is the concept proposed by my subordinate Turks Winter.
He's a very good coach! Back then, we struggled with our opponent's 'Jordan's Rule' and couldn't break through.
But with my mobilization and Coach Winter's triangle attack, we managed to win the championship! ”
Reporter: "Oh yes. So how do you rate the Lakers this season? ”
In fact, this reporter knew who invented the triangle offensive, but he still said the wrong thing in a hurry.
But she immediately continued to talk to the Zen master as if she didn't know, as if she didn't know.
Jackson: "When Wharton Jr. was a player, I knew he had the talent to be the head coach of the team! And now it confirms that.
But the coach's words, in addition to his own coaching ability and mental talent, also need the help of the players on the field.
Li Feng is a player I really see, and if I were the coach of the team, then I would focus on putting Li Feng at the shooting guard.
How do I rate the Los Angeles Lakers, you ask? Hmph, it's better than the Knicks! ”
The New York Knicks still can't make it to the top 10 in the East this season with Anthony, Porzingis and Rose......
At this time, Jackson, who was the president of Knicks operations, was also a little annoyed when asked by reporters.
He originally wanted the Knicks to develop, but the team just couldn't play!
For this, he and Anthony quarreled more than once in the office!
But it still doesn't solve the problem.
Reporter: "...... Well, what do you think is the Bucks or the Lakers? Their use of the triangle offense compared to that of the Bulls dynasty at the time!
To what extent? ”
Zen Master: "Kidd has always been a smart guy, and he's used the triangle and some other tactics to get the team to win the championship.
I don't have much to say about it. Let's talk about the Lakers. In terms of triangular offensive play......
Let's put it this way, two seasons ago, the Bucks were using the triangle offense as their main offensive tactic!
And this season, I haven't seen the Lakers use this either. Very little. So they play with a triangle attack basically not the main tactic.
The style of play is relatively simple, so be it. ”
In his spare time, the Zen master put aside some of his worries at work and came to the Staples Arena.
If he hadn't been spotted on the big screen in the audience, the reporter wouldn't have gone over to interview him right away.
Back here, even though he was just sitting in his seat as a spectator, Jackson still felt more relaxed.
He's very old, and being able to see Kobe still playing with the Lakers feels comfortable and relaxed.
Whether it's watching Iverson and Kobe Bryant play, it's going to be a treat.
But at this time on the Knicks, why can't Anthony lead the team to more wins?
Thinking of the Lakers coached by Scott a few years ago, Jackson seems to have figured it out all at once.
The camera is interestingly aimed at Coach Wharton, the new coach of the Lakers, who is also watching the Zen master being interviewed.
When Wharton saw that he was also on the big screen, he immediately smiled and greeted the Zen master!
Originally, Wharton could also bring some fame to himself through his appearance~
But it should not be as great as the influence that the Zen master brought to himself!
Usually communicating with Coach Jackson, Wharton feels that he has benefited a lot!
It may also be that it was during the contact that the Zen master discovered that little Wharton and himself were like-minded people, and that his father Wharton Sr. was a good friend of him.
made Jackson especially fond and appreciative of Wharton Jr.
Until now, Zen masters still praise Coach Wharton when they are interviewed.
In recent years, Coach Jackson has rarely appeared in the public eye.
By the time the fans turned their eyes back to the game, the score was already 11:9!
In this game, Li Feng used two exclusive Maddie skill packs, Purple and Blue, as well as Kidd's Blue Turning Pass Pack!
Playing against a team like the Warriors, what the Lakers should pay special attention to is the opponent's sudden breakout!
There is also the evaluation of surpassing poisoned milk that suddenly came today......
The Lakers bit the score in the early stage!
The worry is that the Warriors will collapse the Lakers in the early stage. Although the Lakers have improved in terms of resilience this season.
But the opponents against them will make the team extra heavy in terms of pressure.
The rhythm of the Warriors' side is gradually playing out!
After a few passes, the basketball came to Thompson, who got up straight up and hit a long-range three-pointer!
Li Feng immediately received a pass from his teammates, and the Lakers wanted to play an offensive and defensive transition, but they were immediately blocked by Green!
Because he played basketball for a year with the Warriors, the Warriors know Li Feng's personal strength!
Ingram was strictly guarded after receiving Li Feng's pass, and Kobe Bryant got Ingram's pass, but finally shot iron in the double defense!
The whole Warriors seem to be exuding championship temperament right now!
That's what they did this season! The team seems to have been improved even more in terms of overall coordination and offensive efficiency!
Curry holds the ball straight to the frontcourt!
In the entanglement with Kobe, he finally passed the ball to Thompson.
In the face of Li Feng's defense, Tang Shen didn't take long to get rid of him, and then hit a three-point hollow shot!
The Warriors shoot three-pointers as easily as a probe!!
The Lakers, in such a situation, have become faster on offense!
Lore Deng rushed to the Warriors' basket and was slapped by Vallejo's big hat for a jumper!
Randall immediately flew off the pitch to save the ball!
Ingram got up and hit a long-range 2-pointer when he got to the ball right away!
......
Wharton gritted his teeth on the sidelines to watch the first quarter of the game!
The offensive efficiency and speed of the Warriors' players made it difficult for Wharton to breathe! He led the team in the last time because of the injury of coach Cole.
Walton became the Warriors' interim head coach directly.
He knows what the Warriors are capable of, especially in the last few years! The Warriors' terrifying power has made the whole league tremble!
Even if some of the team's players were injured in turns last season, the Warriors still got the record of winning the regular season in history!!
Before the game, Wharton also knew that this game, if you want to win, it will be too difficult. It's almost impossible.
But if you want to win the Western Conference this season!
The opponent the Lakers will face in the final Western Conference is likely to be the Golden State Warriors in front of them!
So in today's game, Wharton's mood is actually a little contradictory.
But in general, he wants a win! Even if it's a narrow victory over your opponent!
This may be the kind of competitive spirit that emerges from Walton, a former Lakers player, and his current age.
35:26! In the first quarter of the game, the Warriors played as they should be! Kerr smiled with relief when he saw the players return.
If this rhythm continues, the Lakers have no chance of winning.
According to their team's stats and at the time of the meeting, everyone agreed that the Lakers have indeed gotten stronger this season!
But in the end, the best ranking for the Lakers was fourth, in the West.
In other words, although the Lakers are strong, in this season's regular season, maybe the final ranking will be better fixed here!
The first Warriors, the second Spurs, and the third are the Los Angeles Clippers, who are very strong this year!
And they're the top team in the West! The Lakers are in the second tier.
To put it mildly, this is the best result of the Lakers!
So in today's game, the Warriors think they're on the road though. But as long as they want to win, the Lakers will be powerless!
At the beginning, the team still needed to run in a certain way, but now, the Warriors showed great ability in the first quarter of the game!
I glanced at the Zen master just now.
Wharton thought for a full 30 seconds, and finally under the gaze of his players, he said what was in his heart: "In the second quarter, play the triangle offense. ”
Then turn around and let Nick Young and Nance Jr. prepare!
......
Cole: "No. Green, you have to pay special attention, after the Lakers have Li Feng, the team's changes are very huge!
Putting aside what we call 'team koi'. Li Feng is in a team, and the role of controlling the field is huge! ”
Green: "Good in control, but not for us!" Then I'm going to destroy this ability of his!
What this koi that koi's! Come to me, I'll make him a koi with folded wings! ”
Kerr: "Green defends his position. The Lakers are now limited in both offensive and defensive transitions and small-ball tactics.
We have to try to open up a 15-point gap with our opponents in the first half. Be careful not to be led by the nose by your opponent......"
For the game against the Lakers, Kerr is still more vigilant.
After all, the Lakers still have Kobe Bryant on their side!
There's an interesting phenomenon in the league that if a team is full of newcomers, it takes a few years to polish the team if it doesn't meet particularly prominent players.
Even if these young people are strong, it is difficult to play.
And if there are veterans and newcomers in a team, and the team is still a strong team, it's hard to say!
On the Lakers' side, if only Li Feng has no Kobe, then it will be easy for the Warriors to play such a team.
But that's not the case now.
In the second quarter, the Warriors' lineup was McGee, West, Green, Curry and Thompson!
The Lakers are Lore Deng, Nance , Kobe Bryant, Nick Young and Li Feng in order!
After seeing this strange lineup of the Lakers, Kerr frowned. Could it be that the Lakers are going to play Princeton?
No! Lore Deng doesn't have that ability!
Seeing Randle off the court on the Lakers' side, the Warriors players breathed a sigh of relief.
Hehe, if you want to talk about the Lakers' current basketball defenders, there are only Randle and Zubac.
Zubac was unable to play due to injury, and Landou was replaced.
The Lakers' operation is indirectly surrendered~
But Cole on the sidelines had a faint feeling that something was wrong! Think it's not that simple!
If the Lakers play run-and-shoot tactics, not only will their efficiency not be as high as the Warriors, but they will also be directly blocked by the Warriors!
But if it's not a run-and-run tactic, why is such a lineup?
Thompson meets the black man question mark directly after halftime! After a few seconds of circling, Nick Yang was directly passed by Tang Shen!
Immediately followed by a 2-point step on the line!
When the Lakers passed halftime, Kerr immediately understood! The Lakers are actually playing a triangle offensive strategy with them!
Not Princeton, but the Triangle Offense! Because the Lakers have used triangle offense so far this season, but the number is limited, and the team can only operate this tactic simply.
Bryant held the ball past half the court, and the players on the Lakers' side spread out with him.
Cole: "Defend to man-to-man!" Be sure to watch every player on the opposing side and don't let them go! ”
Nance Jr. then received the ball and played opposite West, Nick Young didn't get rid of Thompson several times, and Li Feng found an opportunity to jump up and hit a three-point shot after receiving a pass from Nance Jr. near the two of them!
The camera is focused on the Zen master at this time, and Kobe, who is playing basketball to the present, has more and more passes on the court.
Hailed by the media as his last season, he is indeed different from the previous season on the field.
Kobe Bryant also had a bold idea, that is, to fight again with the Lakers this season!
But after playing basketball for so many years, he knows that there is no way for the team to go far in the playoffs on his own.
And the current state of the team is that if he can make some changes, maybe the team's fighting power will be improved to a higher level!
In this way, Kobe Bryant is naturally willing to try more.
And Jackson was watching the game in the audience at this time, and the memories of that year appeared in his mind like a movie.
But in the live game, except for Kobe Bryant, the Lakers have long been different.
At this time, the Lakers reproduced the triangle offense in front of their eyes, and the Zen master didn't know what it was like to feel at this time.
I can only continue to watch the game.
37:29! The situation on the scene changed, and the players on the Warriors' side were also a little confused.
The triangle offense suddenly increased the distance between the players and made it more difficult for the Warriors to defend!
At the start of the second quarter, the Warriors did feel the pressure on the pace of the game.
Curry dribbled, and they both slowed down a bit.
Thompson: "It's okay, just defend and defend the opponent." ”
Curry: "But the opponent has Kobe Bryant and Li Feng, who shoots very accurately, and this game seems to be a little difficult." ”
After Green received Curry's pass, he faced Kobe's defense and finally passed the ball out......
McGee, who got the ball, finally scored a dunk under the basket!
Kobe Bryant knew this tactic, and when Li Feng was still on the Bucks, they used this tactic to win the championship!
Although Rohrdeng has limited ability, Nance Jr. feels good in the court, and Nick Young is a nerve knife player.
It didn't take long for the Lakers to rush over, and Kobe Bryant held the ball and directly attacked the Warriors' defense!
Green failed to defend several times, and in the end Kobe Bryant scored 2 points from him.
Curry received a pass from Green and rushed to the frontcourt! In Li Feng's place, he hit a three-point shot after shaking off the opponent!
42:34! Kobe Bryant passed the half again, this time Li Feng got the basketball, and Nick Young finally relied on his teammates to cover and jump directly to hit a three-point shot!
The Lakers' side is not left behind at all!
Thompson got the basketball, faced Nick Young's defense, and finally chose to pass the ball to the basket.
Although the Lakers are not very strong defensively, they also showed their determination in this quarter of the game.
In such a defensive state, the Warriors also muttered a little.
Green avoided Kobe Bryant and then hit a 2-pointer from close range!
Nance Jr. went to the sidelines, passed the ball directly to Li Feng, and Kobe Bryant, who went to the front court, immediately passed the half, and hit a three-point shot directly before the Warriors had time to defend!
44:40! Cole couldn't help but ask for a timeout at this point!
Although Li Feng began to score with his teammates at this time. The team organization was handed over to Kobe.
But Li Feng and Kobe Bryant still have an excellent rhythm on the court!
Kobe Bryant overwhelms the Warriors in terms of on-court experience! And Li Feng has more than a season of triangle offensive experience!
At the same time, Li Feng also played a suppressive role in scoring for the Warriors!
Double pressing! At this time, the Lakers are about to tie the score!
Today's No. 1 team in the West was forced to take a timeout by the Lakers!
