Chapter 406: Wharton's Considerations (1/3)

By the end of the second quarter, the players on the Warriors' side were already getting serious.

The Lakers were in exceptional shape today!

They didn't relax at all, as if they were playing a Western showdown against the Warriors.

And the double suppression of Kobe and Li Feng also gave the Warriors the first time to experience some of the advantages of the Lakers this season.

The Warriors asked for two timeouts, but they didn't have much effect.

Mainly the players on the Lakers' side have become a lot more difficult on the defensive end.

And on the offensive end, the Lakers have also improved their efficiency!

Kobe Bryant and Li Feng, one older and one younger, have an indescribable tacit understanding on the field!

The Lakers players off the court, everyone sighed for the performance of the two of them!

Clarkson was watching the second quarter of the game just end from his hospital bed at this time, and he also felt that it was okay to put aside the emotional factor.

From an objective point of view, this guy Li Feng is indeed much stronger than himself!

From the beginning, the Lakers players and Kobe Bryant had a lot of people wrong in their mentality.

That is, to treat the Black Mamba as a senior, or directly as an idol.

When he goes to play on the field, psychologically, he prefers to pass the ball to him.

Because regardless of seniority or love for idols, they are more willing to pass the ball, or some other reason is all kinds of passes to Kobe.

But in Bryant's view, this behavior is sometimes a sign of weakness.

Some balls can be handled by yourself, so why do you pass them to me?

Does that mean you can't beat it?

As long as you think about it like this, there are more situations like this in the game, and Kobe Bryant will become cold!

Then there will be a "vicious circle" that the Zen master has seen many times.

The more Kobe Bryant played, the more the players didn't dare to come by themselves, and the more they passed the ball, the more Kobe Bryant had to face the "9 people" to play.

But although Li Feng is very young, he just tried Kobe Bryant as a teammate on the court.

There are even times when there is a feeling of "not big or small", which makes the other players of the Lakers a little unhappy.

Who are you?! Commanding Kobe Bryant on the field?!

What are you to command us in the arena?!

But gradually, these players discovered that Li Feng was not just casually directing them on the field.

He can not listen to the words of the head coach of Wharton, because the situation on the field is changing rapidly!

It's not possible to develop according to the team's coach every time!

At this time, it was originally a situation that was not good for the team, and you insisted on playing according to the original drill, isn't it uncomfortable?

What to do? Another timeout for the manager?

And they also found that Kobe Bryant cooperated with Li Feng on the court, or the two played alone.

The Black Mamba feels very enjoyable!

I even feel that Kobe's mood and state seem to have returned to the past!

Back in the 09-10 season, or the state of the "OK Combination" period, you can also see some shadows!

Kobe Bryant and Li Feng are now the two main players of the Lakers! It can also be said that they are a new team combination!

64:59! The Lakers are still lagging behind, but in terms of state and momentum on the court, they are not falling behind at all!

The Warriors, on the other hand, are in a state of flux.

Green has also changed from the arrogance at the beginning of the game to the current temperlessness.

Because in the face of Kobe, whether it is spewing trash talk to each other or simply fighting data, he is not Kobe's opponent at all......

Unlike James, who is also very tough with himself, Kobe Bryant's state when he plays is completely different from that of the little emperor.

You can't catch him, and a black mamba can finish a round with a standard and flowing jump shot right next to you!

It's fun and natural, and there's nothing you can do about it.

I could only do it in a hurry, watching his textbook attack.

Chasing dreams on the field, a rare and somewhat deflated look was captured by Coach Cole.

Green won't play in the third quarter, and after the break, players from both sides will return, and the Warriors' lineup will be adjusted to Pachuria, McGee, West, Clarke and Livingston.

The Lakers' lineup for the third quarter was Randle, Black, Ingram, Lowe and Russell!

Seeing Li Feng resting, Clark was a little disappointed.

Li Feng: "I'll say it's two formations!" Trying to play in one of the team's formations? ”

Clark: "Huh? Ah, Brother Li! Of course! ”

Li Feng: "My teammates last season. He has a lot of potential and outstanding scoring ability...... Seriously play Clark! ”

Introducing the player to Kobe Bryant on the sidelines, Li Feng said to his former teammate Clark with a smile.

Black Mamba and Clark looked at each other and nodded approvingly.

It turned out that even when he was off the field, Li Feng was paying attention to himself!

This season, Clark has shown good scoring ability! But on the Warriors, who are good at shooting three-pointers, his ability doesn't mean much.

But because he was very close to Li Feng last season, it is true that Clark also has some advantages.

So the team's coaching staff still values him very much.

Directly mentioned him who was still in the third team last season to play on the second team of the Warriors!

Focus on shooting guards!

At the beginning of the game, Livingston passed Russell with his speed, and Russell was still a mediocre player on the defensive end.

Then Clark received the ball and saw that there was no chance, and threw the ball directly to West.

The latter hit a 2-point jumper from close range!

Russell took a deep breath, and the Lakers still required a triangle offensive strategy in this quarter.

But obviously after they came on the field, they were still a little rusty about this tactic.

The distance between the players of the team is even more uncomfortable for Russell.

In the end, he had to choose to break through, and after passing two guards, Russell rushed straight to the basket, and was finally fanned off by McGee's blood cap!

Clark flew to the save, but eventually the basketball went out of bounds.

Ingram serves on the sidelines, Randle receives the ball and singles West with his back!

Clarke sprinted quickly across the halfcourt, and Livingston missed a three-pointer after receiving his pass!

After Blake, who had just arrived at the basket, got the rebound, he immediately passed the ball to Russell. The latter got up and passed the ball to Ingram from a distance!

Lowe received the pass shortly after the other side, and got up and hit a three-point shot after a big stride!

Cole immediately raised his hand unconsciously when he saw this, but when the referee's inquiring gaze came, Cole shook his head.

Then he crossed his hands on his hips and sighed.

I've had to pause a little often in the early stage.

This is bad for the late game.

In the third quarter of the game, because the players on the floor were not used to the triangle offensive play, Wharton also said on the sidelines that they would let themselves play.

Just play according to the tactical framework, so now the game has become Russell's rhythm to play.

Russell has his own style of play.

And playing with the Warriors' second-team players, he can also cope with the current situation.

In the second quarter of the game, the Lakers had more than 5 chances to immediately overtake the Warriors, but in the end they failed to do so.

Li Feng felt that this was the little sister's poisoned milk rating model that worked......

Now that Beyond has given a 3-star poisoned milk evaluation, the Lakers can only work harder!

Li Chaoyue's poisoned milk rating does not mean that her words will definitely go in the opposite direction.

Rather, it will make it difficult to achieve the goal in the opposite direction.

For example, the Lakers are now on the other side, and I remember that when I first came to the league, Xiaomei was still canceling Li Feng, thinking that maybe he would return to school when he would.

Or go back to my father's company to inherit hundreds of millions of assets.

So most of the evaluations given to Li Feng at that time were that the opposing team would win.

Therefore, in the early days of the alliance, Li Feng not only had various bonuses of the system, but also Li Xiaomei's unique blessing bonus~

But now it's different, Li Feng is becoming more and more popular in the media at this time!

Netizens have also discussed Li Feng more this season, and basically many are talking about whether he can get his third championship ring.

So Li Chaoyue's idea that the Lakers would win became more and more.

Because it is to the Lakers, many Lakers fans are looking forward to this moment.

Whether it's Kobe Bryant or Wade, as well as Nowitzki and Carter, they have less and less time to play in the league.

After that, it is retirement, and among these people, the most promising one to win the championship now is Kobe Bryant.

The Lakers want players to have players, they want tactics and tactics now, and their ranking is not low.

But the media believes that the Warriors and Spurs, as well as the Celtics and Cavaliers in the East, will produce a championship team.

For the Warriors, Kerr has been coaching Livingston and Clark.

West went straight to the basketball, and then Clark caught the ball next to the three-point line and hit a jumper!

Then Ingram hit the iron twice on the Lakers' side, while the Warriors were scoring steadily.

75:64! Coach Wharton decisively called for a timeout.

When the timeout ended, the fans in the stadium were excited again!

The lineup on the Warriors' side has not changed, the Lakers side, Nick Young and Li Feng are on the court!

Because Russell's ability to organize the team has declined a little, and Coach Wharton hopes that this game can be won in the end, so he wants Li Feng to control the court.

At this time, on the Lakers' side, because the opponent's lineup is not strong, both the basket player and the outside player Li Feng can pass the ball over immediately.

And the team also adjusted the small-ball tactics to a triangle attack!

Li Feng felt that he still had a certain understanding of triangle offensive tactics.

After all, every season, you can actually use some of it.

During the Bucks era, they used it almost every game.

Last season with the Warriors, Li Feng also used a few games. Compared with the triangle offensive tactics of the Bulls period, they don't have that ability.

Because in the Bulls team of Boss Joe's year, the triangle offense was used by them superbly!

At that time, the team also had a very good lineup of players!

Therefore, this tactic itself can derive a lot of playing styles, and it is even more used here in the Bulls!

But Li Feng confidently believes that in ordinary or simple play, Li Feng can still use it well.

Because he has an excellent sense of reflexes on the field!

Clark: "I won't show mercy to your men, Li Feng!" ”

Li Feng: "That's right. Since it's an opponent, I won't keep reminding you in the ring. So you have to watch out for us Lakers. ”

Li Feng, who held the ball for half the court, watched Clark finish coldly and pass the ball to Lu Wei.

The Warriors immediately began to follow the words of Coach Kerr on the sidelines and changed the 2-3 joint defense to man-to-man defense!

Because he saw that the Lakers were on their side, the tactics changed. They immediately made adjustments to their defense.

When the Warriors players thought that Lowe would pass the ball inside or attack himself.

The basketball was passed back again, and Li Feng got up after receiving the ball and scored a long-distance three-pointer!

Didn't give Clark a chance to react at all!

Facing Li Feng beside him, Clark felt that Li Feng was now completely the team's main scoring guard!

As soon as I compared with him, I found that my strength was too different from him.

As a veteran, Lou Wei has no problem observing on the field and cooperating with his teammates.

Even if the players on the team didn't play well, Lu Wei at that time could score and save the game by himself!

Wharton this season, regards Lowe as the old fish Fisher of the 08-09 season!

There were also a lot of young players on the team's forward line that year, and the same is true for the Lakers this season!

Cole: "Use more cooperation, block and pick up to get scoring opportunities, and then pay attention to the opposing team's Li Feng and Randle, don't shoot next to them......"

There are no Green, Curry and Thompson on the court now, and Kerr is a little bottomless.

Therefore, he has to constantly observe the state of the game, so as to give a reminder to the players in the second team.

McGee soon picked up Clark's pass and forced a shot under the basket, which was eventually interfered with by Black.

The basketball went to Pachuria, and then Livingston caught the ball next to him and hit a 2-point shot from long range!

Nick Young ran over as soon as he finished serving!

Lu Wei brought the ball to the front court, and Li Feng threw the ball directly to the black question mark after receiving the ball.

The latter jumped high and hit a three-point shot!

77:70! Now that Nick Young doesn't deal with Li Feng in the arena, he finds that playing with Li Feng is simply not too enjoyable!

In his eyes, Li Feng is an excellent point guard!

But in fact, it is because Li Feng observed the composition of their players in the game.

For example, at this time, the Lakers have players like Lowe and Nick Young, and he will selectively pass the ball more.

Because whether it is a meme or a lore, they have a good scoring ability.

Unless you have to make your own move, this makes the black question mark feel that his value has been fully reflected when he partners with Li Feng!

At this time, Thompson had been called to Cole's side, and he was constantly talking to Thorough.

The Warriors are becoming more and more passive right now.

In the third quarter, he hoped that the team could stretch the margin to more than 10 points.

But now, not only has the difference not been widened, but it is still beginning to narrow.

That's when the team needs to find the right time and let Thompson go up and score.

Under the continuous rapid breakout, strive to meet the standards required of the team in the third quarter.

As long as the Lakers maintain a score difference of less than 10 points with their Warriors, the Warriors are dangerous!

This trick was mentioned by Wharton himself last season.

The Lakers are following the Warriors right now!

At this time, what is needed is the ability of the players on the scene to control the field, as well as the head coach of the team on the sidelines, to control the rhythm of the whole game.
