Chapter 397: Rhythm Suppression! (1/3)
Li Feng, who came back by taxi, got off the bus after paying quickly.
After walking briskly for a while, I came to my big villa.
This Christmas, Li Feng's agent, and Xiaomei are all very busy.
Lin Xiao and his team members went out to have a good meal in the morning!
Before 10 a.m., everyone went back to their homes. Then there's the work of taking care of some of the work.
Then Lin Xiao drove his own sports car, brought a few clothes and various cosmetics and came.
Because the big boss Li Feng this time is her best friend's hair, and after a long time, the natural relationship is closer.
Li Feng's life outside the competition is relatively casual, he will dress up when he goes out to participate in activities, and he wears loose cropped pants at home.
Or slacks and a single shirt, and it looks like a college student.
found that Li Feng didn't really play a score, and Lin Xiao's good impression of him was gradually increasing.
Li Feng: "What about Yiyun?" ”
Lin Xiao: "She locked herself in the house again, and we haven't come out after communicating with her for a long time, you can go in and take a look."
Li Xiaomei is wearing pajamas with Christmas colors at this time, and she is chasing dramas in the house!
At this time, he came out on the sofa in the living room, lying lazily and nodding to Li Feng.
Li Feng: "What's going on?" ”
After knocking on the door and saying a few words to Yiyun, Li Feng went in directly.
Lin Yiyun: "I want to write a Christmas report about you. But I can't write it! Sick of it! ”
Li Feng: "Aren't you fired by the company?" If you even if you make it, will it be adopted by the company? ”
Embarrassment from Lin Yiyun +835!!
Li Feng: "Oh no...... I mean you don't have to write this for me. You're still in a period of calming down. And it's Christmas."
In the team, the teammates were used to joking, and Li Feng's speaking style did not change for a while.
Li Feng had also done relevant tests before.
He deliberately stimulated Yiyun when there were only two people, but only got two situations.
Either the embarrassment value is not at all, or the embarrassment value is above 700!
This also proves that Lin Yiyun's mood is still not very stable.
But now it looks much better.
Under Li Feng's repeated persuasion, Yi Yun deleted the editor with less than 10 words just now.
and Li Feng walked out of the room.
In this game, Griffin scored 21 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists! Paul 28 points, 3 rebounds and 6 rebounds!
On the Lakers' side, Kobe Bryant had 29 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists! Li Feng 26 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists!
Indeed, in the end, the Lakers gave the Clippers a big gift! That's Li Feng's lore gift!
After the game, there was some verbal altercation between the players on the Clippers' side and the Lakers. Eventually got Walton to interrupt and told the Lakers players to hurry home for Christmas.
Obviously, the Clippers can't accept the fact that they were killed by the Lakers at the end of the game!
Originally, they had almost completely suppressed the Lakers in the late stage!
Not long after the evening, Li Feng came to call, but Li Feng hung up the phone immediately.
The eyes in the room were focused on Li Feng, and after a while, Li Feng called the phone.
It was her parents who called just now, and Xiaomei and Li Feng immediately chatted with their parents for a while.
Lin Yiyun and Lin Xiao did not go over.
In this game, Li Feng actually felt quite complicated in his heart.
In the later stage, the Clippers also wanted to reason with the Lakers, but no matter whether the game was won or lost, Li Feng didn't plan to think about it after the end.
And they ended up winning the game.
Don't take a bad mood home with you. This is what Li Feng thought of when he came back.
At night, Li Feng directly sealed the pool. Don't let the three beauties go swimming.
Everyone celebrates the festival in the house. Because Li Feng's villa is a little far away from the nearby residential area, it looks a little deserted on Christmas Day.
......
After Christmas, the Lakers had two days off in a row!
On social networks, a photo of Kobe Bryant and his family was posted.
There are also all kinds of funny and warm group photos of the Lakers teammates, and Li Feng has also seen them.
Everyone is relaxing, one is in this country, Christmas is considered the New Year, and the other is that their next opponent will be difficult to fight.
It's the Atlanta Hawks led by Coach Budenholzer!
Unlike some of the games before Christmas, Wharton didn't say anything before the game.
What he meant was that the Lakers were going to try to win this game.
Because this team lost to the Hawks at the beginning of the season.
The Atlanta Hawks, who have Howard this season, have gotten even more open in the regular season!
Although the final champion of the Eastern Conference playoffs this season should still be the Cleveland Cavaliers.
But playing against the Hawks is a very important training opportunity for the Lakers!
The opponent did a very good job of moving the ball on the field and cooperating with the players!
After Warcraft arrived at the Eagles, it also experienced a certain period of running-in. Now he has adapted to the team!
In the game against the Hawks, the Lakers will voluntarily give up the basket......
There is no way around it, although Howard is no longer the fighting power he used to be, he is still a dominant big center under the basket!!
The Lakers defeated the Clippers, which was also a big shock to the players on the Hawks' side!
Even they weren't completely sure that they would win against the Los Angeles Clippers, but the Lakers did just that in the Christmas game.
Before the game, Wharton also saw his team's players, who had not yet fully emerged from the festive atmosphere.
After all, for many office workers, it is still a Christmas holiday!
Wharton: "If you look at it alone, we can't beat the Eagles." But it's not entirely hopeless.
The Hawks' current combat power and teamwork are basically not as powerful as the Spurs. When the Spurs meet the Eagles, they can almost win them outright!
So from this point of view, the Lakers also have the possibility of winning the Hawks. ”
The players were silent in the dressing room at this point, and they listened carefully to what Walton had to say about the game.
Wharton: "The reason I didn't say anything about the Hawks in pre-game training. It's because this team is also relatively well-rounded.
They're in some places, and you've seen the information that the teaching assistants have given you. Defensively, there are deficiencies in some areas.
But the Eagles will use their efficient coordination and low turnover to make up for it.
About the same as the Clippers, this game won't be too easy. But the Hawks and Clippers are completely different teams. ”
What should be added and what are the main ones. Wharton didn't mention it.
He just told his players how to adjust their mentality when facing the Eagles.
Because this season's Atlanta Hawks once again highlighted their ability to disrupt the opponent's mentality!
......
Budenholzer: "On guard, the opponent is a superstar like Kobe!"
What we have to do is to beat the opponent where the opponent is not good at!!
If offensive efficiency doesn't open, don't waste time there. Pass the ball to the inside. OK? Let's play! ”
It's about the same as usual, with an expressionless face.
Budenholzer feels it's going to be a tough match. Because the Lakers did more than he expected in terms of team running-in.
It's actually pretty good to have a team that has been at the bottom of the league for a few years make the playoffs.
But judging by what the young Lakers coach has done, he doesn't really want to bring the team to the playoffs!
Some teams will focus on looking at the data of their team's players and the distribution of combat power.
Budenholzer, on the other hand, usually looks at more data, which may have something to do with his early days as an analyst.
The Lakers didn't look particularly explosive at this point.
There were all sorts of mistakes on the field, but in Budenholzer's opinion, the team's progress was faintly unsettling!
Unlike other teams, Budenholzer takes this game very seriously!
Now the Western Warriors are at their best!
The league-wide style of play is gradually moving closer to the Warriors, but will the Warriors still be the champion of the West this season?
This question has been in the minds of coach Budenholzer for a long time!
If he thinks too much about this problem, it makes it a lot easier. But if it is true that in reality it will go in the imaginary direction of Budenholzer!
Then most teams in the East this season, playoff preparations, are completely wrong in direction!
So now the head coach of the Eagles is thinking about the drill tactics that are compatible.
The effect of this tactic is not particularly obvious, but it is well prepared for the later stage!
The players on both sides of the field were already on the field at this point, and the Hawks were Howard, Millsap, Hardaway, Schroder and Kent!
The Lakers' starting lineup tonight is Randle, Black, Kobe, Li Feng and Russell!
Zubac's right arm injury was almost healed by this time.
The wound on the face has also healed. He can play more than 20 minutes in this game!
But Wharton deliberately limited his playing time.
What level of center is Howard? Little Zubac didn't go up again and came back injured......
Player injuries, both in terms of time and player psychology, have a lot of damage!
At the beginning of the game, Howard got the basketball directly, and then Kent received the ball and passed it to Hardaway Jr.
Millsap received a pass from Hardaway Jr. and turned his back to Blake to score!
Budenholzer hugged his shoulders and watched the game motionless from the sidelines.
The attack just now seemed reasonable to him.
But Budenholzer is waiting for the moment in the quarter when the team will start to make mistakes, or where will they make mistakes frequently!
Coach Budenholzer, who used to be the chief assistant coach next to San Antonio Spurs Popovich, is not ordinarily strong!
He's a coach who was taken seriously by Popovich!
He is constantly learning some European playing methods, team basketball and the Spurs' tactical drills over the years are in his mind!
Even without a lineup like the Spurs, Budenholzer firmly believes that he can play like a gourd!
Let Li Feng and Russell play at the same time, Wharton is afraid that the Eagles will completely bring up the rhythm of his team in the early stage!
If that's the case, the Lakers will become very passive.
And under the basket, they don't have much advantage in this game.
If he doesn't want to win, that's it.
But in this game, Wharton played the Hawks as the Spurs!
For the Eastern Conference playoffs, the intensity is not particularly great.
But in the playoffs in the West, every game will not be easy to play!
Li Feng: "The inside line basically won't pass the ball past, unless there is an obvious gap. Let's pass the ball on the outside and look for chances.
Against a team like this, make fewer mistakes, score more points and think less about anything else."
Seeing Russell's somewhat flustered appearance at this time, Li Feng immediately said to him.
The latter immediately nodded like a woodpecker.
Bryant listened and didn't say anything.
After the basketball passed, Kobe Bryant got the ball and immediately got past Hardaway Jr.!
Then get up and hit a three-point shot!
Wharton applauded in his heart on the sidelines!
The Lakers are lucky to have this trump card!
Budenholzer: "When Kobe Bryant rushes over, Millsap can consciously wrap him up.
The rest of the time it's man-to-man defensive. Outside the proportion of the department. ”
Seeing that his side was immediately scored by the Lakers to get three points, Budenholzer immediately showed an anxious look again.
This is a strict and conservative manager!
Kent got the ball up front, easily past Russell and passed through to Howard near the touchline!
The latter didn't even have time to dribble, and directly deducted points for a bang!
Under the basket, Randle and Blake have nothing to do with Warcraft.
After Russell received his teammate's serve, Kobe Bryant got the basketball on the other side and decisively threw the ball to Li Feng behind him!
The latter is in a fight with Schroeder!
The opponent's speed is very fast, and Li Feng has been protecting the basketball and pushing forward!
Finally, he hit the ground and passed the ball to Russell, and Blake saw Russell's movement and pulled out to catch the ball and shoot a 2-point jumper!
Warcraft gets the rebound right away! Then pass the ball to the nearest Millsap, who was cut off by Kobe!
Then get up directly and jump shot, the action is picturesque!
2 points from a long distance with the cheers of the fans, hollow hit!
The cheers of the fans at the scene were not completely over, and Kent on the Hawks' side hit a three-point shot directly after receiving a long pass from Schroder!
7:5! At this time, the Lakers can clearly feel that the Hawks have reached a certain point in controlling the team's rhythm on the court!
They have three-point ability, but they have been playing steadily against the Lakers.
If they just use Howard to score under the basket, they can maintain a certain point difference with the Lakers.
It is likely that at some point in time, the Eagles will suddenly make a move!
At that time, the Lakers, like most teams, will be directly dragged down by the Hawks in terms of rhythm!
And the Lakers don't have the same stability as the Warriors in terms of outside three-point accuracy!
This is one of the reasons why the Spurs are still very high in the rankings, although their style of play is still not too much on the side of the Warriors.
And the Hawks are very similar to the Spurs in the rhythm of the game!
The two teams didn't score many points in the opening game, but there was not much cheering on the Lakers bench.
Some of the Lakers players on the court have come down!
They didn't feel it at the start of the season.
But playing against the Eagles at this time, the feeling of being firmly controlled by the other party is really making people feel that it is too difficult to win!
