"The Spurs have shown great team quality from the start of the season! It seems that in the regular season we saw what the other side wanted to do this season. Lakers teammates Kobe Bryant, O'Neal and even Odom now, but they don't have the Spurs' coordination and efficiency......"

The room was quiet, so quiet that you could only hear the sound coming from the TV. Zhou Yang lay on the bed, his mind went blank. Both games were played more depressingly. The first game against the Spurs ended up 115-98.

And in the second game of the Spurs, the opponent defeated the Lakers 126-102! Originally, the Lakers had entered garbage time in the first three quarters of the game. But the other party still did not relax in the slightest!

In the fourth quarter of the game, the whole team scored 29 points! On Jackson's side, even if they scored 40 points in this quarter, they couldn't recover. Zhou Yang played 15 minutes and 17 seconds in this game and didn't score a point...... He only got 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 6 turnovers.

I don't know what's going on, Zhou Yang feels as if the other party is deliberately targeting him in this game. Facing the team that is not weak in defense now, Zhou Yang almost always has two people around him in this game!

Kobe Bryant scored 33 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists in the first game! In the second game, he got a triple-double of 39 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists! But even that didn't allow the team to win.

"Hello? Nothing was done. Just lying on the bed......" When Zhou Yang said this, a warm current suddenly surged in his heart, and then he got up and sat up.

"There's nothing wrong with me here. I'll go over with you now~ How about it? The days of the playoffs are not comfortable~" Linda took off her sneakers, immediately revealing her little feet in pink socks, and quickly reached into the slippers and continued. At the end, the sound rises slightly.

"Can you imagine that? I didn't score a point in yesterday's game. Is there an invisible lid on the basket? Why can't I see it" Zhou Yang suppressed his emotions for almost 12 hours, and suddenly seemed to have eased a lot at this time.

"How good can you play as a first-year Lakers player? If you want me to say that your playoff data is not normal~ Okay, it's just a few days. It just so happens that I can still go to the NBA game to relax~ Don't say it, you can rest well~ Wait for me~"

It wasn't until this time that Zhou Yang realized that something was wrong with him. The Spurs' second game had a big impact on him. There are even some doubts that his current qualification rating is suitable for the playoffs.

......

"How do you think our coach sees this?" Parker and Duncan just glanced at each other after training and ran over to each other. Then he sat down on a black leather bench.

Duncan took two bottles of water by himself, handed Parker one, and drank it himself. Training at this time can not only consume a lot of excess energy for the day, but also relieve your tension.

The Spurs, though, have won the Lakers twice at home. But they still don't have an easy time. If they can win three straight Lakers games in the playoffs, it will basically be more comfortable. Because in the current NBA history, no team has been able to overtake the opponent in a 3-0 situation to advance to the next round!

"What did you say?"

"Strictly guard against the other party's newcomer Zhou Yang. It really works. Could it be that this kid is a key player for the Lakers right now? Shouldn't the key third person be Odom? ”

"I don't really know that. Just play on the field and do what he asks him to do. Maybe it's because it's a bigger reason for our appearance~" After Duncan finished speaking, both of them laughed.

The most recent news they learned now was that the Lakers flew back to Los Angeles overnight after the game yesterday.

The team was silent on the plane. Bryant didn't speak again at night except for saying to the flight attendant that he wanted a blanket. Vincent came over to talk to Kobe Bryant and didn't bother him anymore after seeing that the other party didn't react......

One night's game gave the Spurs 126 points! It's hard for the players to get out of their emotions right now. As soon as they arrived, the hotel staff informed them to pack up and take the bus to the airport immediately.

If Phil goes back another five or six years, he will have to roar in the arena tonight!! Zhou Yang, Vujacic and Fisher have no scoring records! The Spurs are in such good shape, it's just that!

O'Neal was penalized at the beginning of the third quarter! There are only Kobe, Odom and Smush on the team, who are struggling to support the team! If the Spurs were a little uncomfortable in the first game, then in the second game, they simply played Popovich's pre-game tactical arrangements to the extreme!

......

"I think the other side anticipated almost all of our points of attack. And the main two points of attack they didn't defend too much. You know, unless O'Neal and Kobe Bryant play too long, it's still difficult for the team to score half of the team's total scores......"

The Zen master was chatting on the other end of the phone and left the residence after a brief bite of bread. He's going to the conference room to discuss the game with the assistant coaches. And just now, because of some details, Jackson and a teaching assistant were talking on the other end of the phone.

"How's Vinson's training with the players the day before yesterday?"

"The trainer told me that they had stopped Odom, Zhou Yang and Devon from potentially overtraining. The rest of the players just did warm-ups, shooting drills and obstacle drills."

“...... Well, well, it's all here now. Let's get started," Jackson opened the pages of the paper in his hand after straightening out his tie.

"I don't think I can play any new players in this game. They can play for 5 minutes, but not any more. For example, players like Vujacic and Zhou Yang. It's a complete mess on the field."

After one of the assistant coaches finished speaking, several coaches around nodded their heads, thinking that there was nothing wrong with what he said.

"Well, anything else to say? Do you have any new tactical ideas? Jackson said at this point.

"Bryant and O'Neal are the main offensive targets to pose a threat to the Spurs. This allows other players to score or assist them in attack. Odom's words should be more about letting him defend under the basket......"

......

The meeting lasted for a long time, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Although there was a two-hour break in between, the people in the room were a little tired.

'So I think the functioning of the team is still a priority. The Spurs should be focusing on defending our other role players. I'll go back and think about it, and then we'll talk about it online."

The TAs finally saw Jackson get up! They all breathed a sigh of relief, it was getting dark outside, okay.

At the meeting, everyone watched the footage of the first two games again. It's an edited version, and the two games together are less than an hour and a half away.

......

The media discussion is now more on the Spurs' side. Even in the latest poll, the Spurs won the third game with 54 percent! No matter what kind of vote the Lakers have in a season, they can have a lot of people voting for them.

But this time, it seems that fans also feel that the Spurs are going to eliminate the Lakers and advance to the Western Conference finals against the Suns. That's right, although only two games were played in the second round, fans have long felt that the results have been obvious in the game between the Suns and Mavericks.

'We're back at home now. We played badly in the last game. You know this better than you do in the game...... "When Phil came to the training gym and saw that the players were back in shape.

Now you have to fight with each other! And in the best-of-7 game, the Lakers feel that they may not be swept by the Spurs 4:0! Just played two games.

Kobe Bryant isn't in such a bad mood right now. He just listened quietly to Jackson talking there.

"We discussed it yesterday. In the end, I felt that the cooperation of the players was still needed in the game. This hate is important. But! When the Zen master said this, his tone suddenly increased. O'Neill and several other players looked up.

'But there are also players in the squad who stand out. Teams need to outscore their opponents in terms of points to win the game. And it takes you and all of you to work together to get the score we want."

Watching the players' reactions, Phil breathed a sigh of relief. Neither Kobe nor the bench players would sound wrong with saying this.

The fans who came to the scene today looked like they were full! If it weren't for the fact that some fans didn't come to the scene because of some things, it is estimated that the atmosphere at the game site would be even more enthusiastic.

Entering the scene, Kobe Bryant and O'Neal saw the picture of the Lakers winning the championship a few years ago on the big screen. Such a picture is so heartwarming. Kobe Bryant flew and jumped on O'Neal at the end of the game, and both of them laughed!

The cooperation of two people on the field. O'Neill's Violent Buckle! Bryant's long-range three-point shot...... The camera goes to the Zen master, and then cuts to Jackson here now. Jackson is getting a little older now.

The mentality of the two teams is different now. The main idea on the Spurs' side is to try to win the Lakers in this game! At that time, the pressure on their hearts will be reduced a lot. And the idea of the Lakers is really to let the other side take a good look at their strength at home!

Today's Spurs lineup is Duncan, Rasu, Finley, Parker and Ginobili! On the Lakers' side, O'Neal, Odom, Wharton, Kobe, and Smush!

Luke did show his third-year strength in two games. Although there are not many points, they are still outstanding in terms of organizing the team. Tonight the Zen master asked him to start! Zhou Yang sat quietly on the sidelines watching the game.

Linda just arrived at him today, and Zhou Yang asked for leave to pick her up during training.

Because of time, Zhou Yang left after handing over the key to the little girl.

And Linda can only watch the live broadcast on TV because of the rush of time.

At the beginning of the game, O'Neal took the lead and passed the ball to Kobe. Smush took his pass and hit a three-point shot right away! The cheers at the scene were very violent! If it weren't for Kobe Bryant's passing more balls now, he would have felt like he could have scored more than 55 points in the last game!

He has also wavered during these times. For example, sometimes I want to attack on my own. However, Jackson almost always seemed to be able to see through Kobe's mood to persuade him to pass the ball more.

Indeed, Kobe Bryant playing alone and he organizing a team to play are completely different!

Duncan ran away as soon as he served to Parker.

Rasu's jump shot after receiving the basketball in the front court did not! Odom got the rebound and passed the ball to Kobe. The latter rushed to the front court and came directly to score three points! 6：0！ When Popovich saw this, he immediately moved a relatively large range and asked for a timeout!

The pace of the scene is simply too fast! The Lakers' side got three points right away!

"In terms of rhythm, pay attention to the way the Lakers play. At the three-point line, the defense has to keep up! Don't be too relaxed. Parker, Ginobilido with the ball. Duncan gives him less of the ball there and now plays more on the outside."

I didn't feel much before the game. As a result, the Spurs players on the scene are now feeling a little bad. The Lakers looked like they had changed when they returned to their home court.

The teams that make it to the playoffs are basically not low. Once such a team fights with each other in the game, its strength is still not weak! Besides, the Lakers have a lot of quality in their players this season!

"Zhou Yang went up. Odom rests. Seize the current rhythm and shoot more threes from the outside! "Jackson is now going to take every opportunity to win today's game!

"Bryant passed less in the first quarter, Wharton organized the game, O'Neal here, once the opposing defense on the outside strengthened, immediately passed the ball to Shaq ......"

The Lakers are now from top to bottom as if they are all playing in the Finals! Both the coach and the players are very serious!

When he got back from the game, Parker got the basketball and passed it to Ginobili. The latter scored on a jumper after passing Smush and Wharton!

Zhou Yang didn't expect that he had come back at this time. But before the game, he had already made some adjustments for today's game. Since the opponent's defense is good. Then he simply doesn't attack at some times.

And Phil's intention to let Zhou Yang play is to see that he has a certain three-point ability.

Kobe Bryant took the ball to the frontcourt, and the coach suddenly asked him to pass less and was really uncomfortable~

After passing Rasu, Kobe Bryant successfully played 2+1 after letting Duncan receive a foul!

Parker got the rebound after a three-point shoot in the half! Zhou Yang didn't shoot the basketball without anyone after receiving the basketball in the front court! Instead, the ball was passed to Walton, who didn't dare to jump straight up and hit a three-point shot! 12：2！

Lakers fans are already going crazy at this point! From the beginning of today's game, the atmosphere of the scene was raised! The Lakers players didn't relax in the slightest! After Luke finished throwing, he pointed his finger at Zhou Yang and ran over.

"That's what the Spurs have to be careful about now," Popovich thought to himself. Either the Spurs continue to win this game, or the Lakers use this game to prove that they are not weak. The Spurs bench was a little confused. Popovich feels that it shouldn't be so easy for them to win the Lakers on the road today.
