"What the hell is going on? Isn't he passing the air? Ma Simi was still unconvinced, and questioned his teammates again.

"Hougist is just shooting threes! Don't mention how standard that posture is, do you really not see it or pretend not to know it to relieve embarrassment? Ellis asked rhetorically.

"Then why did Turner go down? And he's jumping up to catch the ball! "It's hard for Masimmy to understand Turner's behavior.

"It could have been a feint, or maybe he was tricked by Haugist and you just touched the ball first." Ellis said impatiently, "There's no point in discussing this now, if you don't accept it, you can watch the video by yourself when you go back at night, and then you have to hurry up and chase the score!" ”

Back on the offensive end, Pickled Pepper continued to hold the ball at the top of the arc, and whenever he had the urge to shoot a three-pointer, he always felt like a prey targeted by a cheetah, and the hairs all over his body stood up, feeling that a big disaster was coming, and danger was coming, but whenever he gave up the idea of shooting a three-point shot and planned to divide the ball or break through, that dangerous feeling would disappear again.

Pickles didn't dare to make a mistake in the end, giving the ball to Ellis, who didn't seem to feel that way, not only resolutely shot a three-pointer, but also made a shot.

As he stepped back, Pickle Pepper asked Ellis curiously, "Do you have any special feelings when you shoot threes?" ”

Ellis nodded, "I think I'm going to make it!" ”

Pickled Pepper knew that Ellis had misunderstood what he meant, so he asked clearly, "I mean, did you feel like a big disaster was coming when you shot a three-pointer?" ”

"What are you talking about? I think my three points are extremely accurate, and the opposite side is in trouble! Ellis corrected.

It seems that I only feel this way! Pickled pepper secretly thought, could it be the oppression brought by Hougist's defense? But why did the murderous aura disappear when I wanted to break through? Did he deliberately lure me to the basket, but my breakthrough shooting percentage was much higher than my three-point shooting rate today! Reasonable, shouldn't he be afraid of sudden throwing?

When Pickled Pepper was entangled, Pickle Pepper killed like a gust of wind, Pickled Pepper came back to his senses and retreated to block Howgist's breakthrough route, only to take a step back but felt like hitting the wall. Pickles barely fell off with his hands on the ground, and when he looked back, he saw that it was Turner who had made a solid cover for Hougist, who had already rushed to the basket with Masimmi.

Pickled pepper hurriedly got up to chase after him, but Hoggist burst to the basket but did not jump, but directly smashed the ball to the floor under his crotch. Hougist didn't stop, he rushed out of the baseline with Masimmi, but the ball stayed in place, bounced high, and went straight to the chest of Turner who followed up, Turner received the ball and was about to get up and dunk directly, Pickle Pepper barely caught up with the ball carrier who pulled Turner directly, and it was better to foul Turner to the free throw line than if he scored directly, what if he didn't make a free throw?

However, Pickle's wishful thinking failed, and Turner was very accurate in both free throws, and even the ball only rubbed slightly against the net before it hit the ground after the sale. There are 5 minutes left in the game, and the difference is still more than 15 points, but the Pacers are not desperate, and it is no longer the same as it was then, since the Warriors who died five small are out of the air, the ten or twenty points are no longer an insurmountable gap, and the 10-point difference may even be wiped out in a minute or two.

So Vogel applied for a timeout, and sent the Pacers version of the Death Five, which he had secretly practiced for a long time, Jiao Zhixi, Clarkson, C.J. Myers, Ellis and Pickled Pepper, this set of Death Five is more extreme than the Warriors, and truly implements the tactical idea that offense is the best defense, except for Pickled Pepper, the height is less than two meters, the offense is mainly fast-break three-point, and the defense is all fast-handed gambling steals.

Shashewski also saw the weakness of Vogel's lineup and did not change the lineup, and then it depends on whether the Lakers pass more steadily or the Pacers start faster!

This lineup plays unrestrained on the offensive end, and this offense relies on the accumulation and feel of a large number of shots, and the offensive time per round is compressed by jealousy to increase the number of rounds. Ellis hit a pull-up three-pointer as soon as he came up, and the margin returned to 14 points.

Horgist dribbled to the frontcourt, at this time the defense of him became C.J. Myers, C.J. used his flexibility to stick up to force Horgist, Horgist hung to Randle, Randle wanted to make a triple threat after receiving the ball in the elbow area, the ball was stabbed off by Clarkson as soon as it was pulled to the waist, Ellis fell to the ground and grabbed the floor ball, stabbed the ball to the frontcourt, Jiao Zhixi won the race with Jeremy Lin, picked up the ball and made a layup to score two points.

Hougist signaled everyone not to be impatient, dribbled to the front court again to press the rhythm, C.J. posted it again, in the face of C.J.'s ferocious forcing Hougist directly raised his arm to try to make a foul, but the referee did not show face, C.J. took the ball and rushed directly to the frontcourt, regardless of the lack of defense in front of him, directly outside the three-point line to make a quick stop to hit a three-pointer, the current score on the court is Lakers 112:103 Pacers, the difference has narrowed to 9 points.

Shashewski hurriedly applied for a timeout, obviously it was a game that had already been played, but the opponent was so strange that the score was chased up.

Unlike Shashefsky's anxiety, Haugist seemed very calm, "K, calm and calm, the situation is still under my control!" ”

"There are only 9 points left, and you are embarrassed to say that the situation is under your control?" Shashewski tapped the tactical board, "I don't call a timeout to say that you have to make a substitution, but I just want to remind you to stay focused on the court, don't handle the ball so casually, since the opposite side is going to play a small and fast game, you should make good use of the inside space." ”

"That's what we think, don't worry, I'm in control!" Hougist patted his chest and reassured.

Shashewski waved his hand, "Okay, I won't say anything more, if you are really overturned in the last few minutes, the most humiliating thing will be you Haukist!" Discuss tactics for yourselves! ”

"That...... Can I direct staff scheduling? Hogist asked with a smile on his face.

"You feel free." Shashewski picked up his glass of water and sipped it as if he were drinking.

"Well, invisible pretending is the deadliest!" Hoggist shook his head and gathered the crowd, "Guys, they must have thought that we were going to use a small lineup to deal with them as well, but we didn't, instead of lowering our height and speeding up, we also wanted to replace the big man!" Yi Jianlian, you go up, we defend 3-2 on the defensive end, and we blow up their basket on the offensive end! ”

When the timeout came back, everyone felt unbelievable when they saw the five players on the floor from the Lakers. Young, Randle, Yi Jianlian, Turner, none of them can dribble stably under the pressure of the opposite side, and even the regular point guard Hougist has just made a serious mistake and failed to prove himself. This lineup against the Pacers' Extreme Death Five is like giving five nimble cats five wooden stakes for them to play with, and in the words of some big man in an overcoat, with a cigarette in his mouth, and a shell gun in both hands, you are killing yourself!

However, the truth is very different from everyone's judgment, and after receiving the ball, Horgist seriously lowered his center of gravity and bowed his body to dribble forward. Jiao Zhixi came up to defend the steal, and Haugist quickly made a big change of direction before he approached, due to the difference in height, arm span and leg length, this action threw Jiao Zhixi away from two positions.

After getting rid of Jiao Zhixi, Hougist immediately began to accelerate, and just after halftime, he threw the ball near the Pacers basket, the Pacers basket has been occupied by Yi Jianlian and Turner, Pickled Pepper and C.J. were stuck outside the paint area, this ball Lakers twin towers even relaxed to play, first Yi Jianlian jumped up to catch the ball, and after receiving the ball in the air, he flicked the ball to the other side of the basket, and then Turner over there jumped, received Yi Jianlian's pass and dunked with both hands, and the basket he pulled was swaying.

The Pacers wanted to use the speed advantage to launch a fast attack, but Yi Jianlian followed the secret advice of Hogist's previous ear and stood directly in front of the pickled pepper who was ready to kick off in a pressing posture.

Although the ball still belongs to the Pacers, the opportunity to break fast is gone, and Yi Jianlian slowly ran back to the backcourt and stood in his defensive area. Pickled pepper drove the ball, Clarkson controlled the ball in the frontcourt, and was even more surprised to see the Lakers' 3-2 defense. Although the 3-2 joint defense was originally a sharp weapon for defending outside players, the Lakers let Yi Jianlian and Turner stand on the two wings, and instead let Randle and Nick . Yang stood in two low positions.

The three people on the line are all reachers, and the low Nick. Young and Randle are more than enough to move to the corner to prevent shots or breakaways to protect rebounds when facing the offense of their lineup. The seemingly uncommon sense arrangement has completely countered the Pacers' lineup, which can't help but make Clarkson break out in a cold sweat.

The Pacers began to pass the ball on the outside to look for opportunities, but the arm span of the Lakers' three defenders on the line was too exaggerated, almost blocking all the space for shooting on the outside, and when the ball moved to the bottom corner, Pickled Pepper relied on the time difference between his height and Randle to pounce outward, and quickly shot a three-pointer, but Pickled Pepper's shooting ability is not as powerful as the other four guards, and he was not allowed today, although he shot resolutely but was not confident enough, and the ball and the basket were naturally splashed with sparks.

Nick Young picked up the rebound and hoisted the ball directly to Hougist at the top of the backcourt arc, which was also instructed by Hoggist at the timeout, the pass must be high, so that the four guards on the opposite side could not jump.

Horgist came to the front court to dribble and wait for the twin towers to settle down, the Pacers couldn't stop the Lakers twin towers anyway, so they simply broke the jar and broke the fall to let Clarkson and Jiao Zhixi come up together to wrap Hoggist, Horgist has no fear in the face of the bag, the number of both sides is equal, so there is a vacancy if there is a bag, Hoggist even disregarded the taboo, jumped in the air before starting to look for a vacant teammate, seeing the pickled pepper under the basket looking at Yi Jianlian and Turner alone, Horgist couldn't help laughing in his heart, Before starting to fall, Hoggist also hoisted the ball high to the basket, still to Yi Jianlian's side.

Seeing that the ball was some distance away from Yi Jianlian, it didn't fall straight to his head, and Pickled Pepper was moved again, wanting to gamble and fight with Yi Jianlian to grab the ball. But Yi Jianlian still didn't want to take the ball by himself, jumped up and took the lead in catching the ball with his long arm, and pushed the ball to the back of his head. Turner easily caught the ball under the basket and dunked with both hands, and his hands were numb today, according to the popular saying of the times, the Lakers today can really be said to be holding his neck and breaking his mouth to forcibly feed him bread, and he can't refuse to eat it or not.

The Lakers' two offenses and one defense have subverted the perception of fans, and it turns out that tall players are not powerless in the face of a flexible and versatile lineup with a wide range, but can be well restrained. However, most professionals still see more things, and Mr. Yang analyzed it in the live broadcast room, "The Lakers' lineup can restrain the Pacers' small-ball lineup, it's not very surprising to me, the big guy can recall that if this lineup can really restrain the small-ball lineup, why didn't the Lakers use this 'Death Five' in the face of the Warriors' Death Five?" ”

"Why is that?" The host who looks like little Thomas is laughing.

"Because the Lakers have this lineup for the Pacers version" Death Five' is not tactical restraint, but pure talent restraint, since the success of the Warriors' small ball, many teams are now competing to imitate this style of play, but don't ignore the Warriors' splash brothers' inexplicable outside projection ability is the basis of this style of play, Curry's quasi-player is rare, and even Klay is a minority of excellent 3D players who do not possess the ball, and the Warriors' small-ball lineup is not a very advanced tactic, and it is also because of talent suppression to be invincible. The Lakers beat the Warriors because Howgist's talent is higher than Curry's, and in the same way, the Pacers' small lineup can't pass off the Lakers' big lineup, that is, the talent gap. Teacher Yang turned the pen in his hand and talked eloquently.

"I understand, the defensive area of the Lakers' lineup can completely cover the entire three-point line, but this is already the limit, if the Pacers have a Curry in the lineup, he can shoot a step or two outside the three-point line, if the Lakers' big man is defended, the joint defensive formation will be broken, if he doesn't defend it, Curry can really shoot, but the Pacers don't have such a player who can shoot anywhere in the half and maintain a high shooting rate, Therefore, the defensive area of the Lakers' lineup can't deal with the Warriors' death five, but it is more than enough to deal with the Pacers' small-ball lineup. The host, who looks like little Thomas, showed a sudden realization, and I don't know if he really wanted to understand it after being mentioned by Mr. Yang or if he was pretending to be confused before.
