The problem of relying too much on core players is present in the vast majority of teams in the league. But if you want to compete for a championship, you have to abandon that, as the New York Knicks did. Thomas's solo scoring ability is definitely the best in the league, but they still haven't completely let him go single.

Zhang Yi's offensive ability is not the strongest among small forwards now, and he may be considered super-first-class, after all, he still has enough years to rise.

But now the Los Angeles Lakers have core dependency. Wacker angrily scolded the poor performance of the players on the field, but of course he immediately made adjustments and put Robert and Vali on the field.

"Why don't you replace Zhang Yi?" The narrator is also a little confused by Wacker's thoughts. If the Spurs coach's coaching ability has been recognized by history. So WACKER is definitely a rookie coach in the league, doesn't he want to show himself in front of such a big senior?

Of course, they couldn't understand what Wacker was thinking, because he didn't care what other people thought. For Wacker, this game must be won, even if it is beaten 11-0, it is basically in his control.

The Spurs didn't take Simpkins either, and the two sides seemed to be deliberately facing each other, and no one wanted to completely replace the main force first. As soon as Robert came on the court, he immediately connected with Vali on the inside and assisted the latter to break the team's goal drought.

Being able to score immediately stabilized the situation. The players on the Spurs don't have the ability to make waves, and as long as they increase the intensity of their defense, they will definitely show their flaws quickly.

Robert and Vali were both inside and outside, plus the other three were woken up by Wacker's scolding, and everyone now has only one thought, which is to prevent this ball. When the main team is fully on the field, try to pull the game back to the same starting line.

The Spurs felt very uncomfortable with such a sudden increase in defense. Sure enough, there was a mistake, and Robert seized the opportunity to fight back.

At this time, the Spurs immediately made a substitution, removing the 10,000-year-old backup quarterback, and Tom was replaced again. The attacking threat of these two men is simply day by day. But Robert wasn't afraid of him, and the three-hit streak in the first quarter proved it all.

"You can't stop me!" Robert said excitedly behind his back. However, how could the proud Tom, of course, accept such a provocation. Immediately shook the opponent's center of gravity in the attack, and then hit a light jump shot, "Don't say as if you can defend me." ”

Robert's defense has improved dramatically now, but it's not really top-notch. Although head coaches Wacker and Zhang Yi also pointed him out in training, it is not easy to improve defensive awareness.

When it came to the offensive round, Robert immediately responded to Tom strongly. How to say it, the technical characteristics of these two people are a bit similar, they are both types of people who can solve problems by attacking with their heads stuffed.

It's just that the difference between them is that one is good at projecting and the other is good at breaking through. In addition, their defense is basically not good, so the scene instantly turned into two explosions between the two.

Wacker and the Spurs head coach also didn't plan to call a timeout, with the former wanting to see if the roster could handle the rotation and the latter indifferent. The reason why he wants to be on the main force is completely because he is interested in Zhang Yi's ability to lead the team. Now that Zhang Yi is not on the field, it doesn't matter how he loves the game.

"If you don't put pressure, Zhang Yi won't play." Simpkins suddenly said to the coach from the bench. "Well, I know, it's time for a replacement." He looked at his precious core and nodded in reply.

It's rare to be able to meet a player who has the same temper as you, not to mention that the opponent has the potential to be one of the best in the league. It's like Phil Jackson and Michael Jordan, the two of them are mutually perfect!

The Spurs immediately switched to Tom and Tate, the former was pushed to small forward, the latter was at the shooting guard position to defend Robert, and the offense continued to be dominated by Tom.

Robert was really afraid of Tate, and as soon as he saw his hit rate, he immediately came down. And in terms of center, Vali is also surrounded by the big forward and the center, and there is no chance at all.

This is the result of no one tearing up the defense, the Spurs even the defense is shrunk into a ball, but whoever makes the Lakers no one can open the interior, so they can only be slaughtered.

Zhang Yi's legs trembled, and finally he couldn't help but say to Wacker, "Let me go." If it goes on like this, it will be spent. Wacker didn't turn his head to look at him, but it was said to heart. Now he is difficult to ride a tiger, and if Zhang Yi is put on, there is no way to make adjustments in the later stage.

The Los Angeles Lakers have enough good players at their disposal, and isn't that enough? Although this problem has already arisen when playing the Golden State Warriors. But WACKER also wanted to find answers to their problems in these people.

Obviously, the results disappointed him again and again, these players have a good offense, and the championship is impossible to win without a defensive giant.

This game against the San Antonio Spurs made him determined that he had to get one or two strong enough defensive giants before the new season arrived.

He already had the substitute leader and Robert played that role very well. So in WACKER's future plans, he will even become the sixth man. But now the Lakers' main point guard can't do without him.

If you can get a strong 3-and-D player like Tate, who has defense and three-pointers, it can be a very significant improvement for the whole team.

Wacker made up his mind, then waved his hand and sent Zhang Yi before the score was completely opened. And the Spurs also immediately adjusted and replaced Simpkins.

It's like the first quarter, except that now the Lakers are eight points behind. And as soon as Simpkins came on the court, he immediately shot a wonderful turnaround jumper in front of Zhang Yi.

The audience outside the stadium all excitedly shouted MVP. Because the degree of Simpkins's cold-bloodedness made them see how the word invincible was written.

And he is facing Zhang Yi, and the gold content of such a score is completely two levels. And under his defense, Zhang Yi, who was known as the offensive kaleidoscope on the other side, only scored two points at the end of the half.

"How do you evaluate the alignment of these two?" The commentators on the sidelines pondered and chatted. "One played at a normal level, and the other played at a shit level."

"Isn't that an exaggeration?" "You've watched Zhang Yi's previous fights. But not to mention Curry's successor in this game, I'm afraid the position of the Lakers' boss will have to give way to Robert......"

Zhang Yi knows very well that he has played badly this time, so from now on he will start his own offensive mode. I saw that his eyes were a lot firmer, a little similar to yesterday's one-on-one. Simpkins still only gave him half a step away, but the latter's crossover followed by a dazzling series of feints instantly disrupted the defender's judgment......

"I'm coming!" Zhang Yi roared loudly, shook off Simpkins in one step, and then flew up in two steps and smashed the opposite center! The audience exclaimed, "It's time to come!" ”
