Chapter 198: Lack of Skills

If the Lakers want to rush for frontcourt rebounds, they must make changes to the lineup, can the Magic still use it?

Harris said that there are still not enough people, and it is not that there are not enough people available, but that there are not enough people who can take advantage of them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info all say that "soldiers are more expensive than fine, not more expensive", and this is the state of the Lakers in this series against the SuperSonics. They seem to have a lot of people who can play, but in fact these people are restrained by supersonic speeds, and they are sent to deliver food from time to time.

Harris is willing to trade Campbell, Sebaros, Malik, and Bisson for a Mutombo, and this one person plays an even bigger role than he does now.

It's a pity that Uncle Mu will still be bargaining with real estate agents in Los Angeles, Harris can't easily replace Magic now, so he can only let Zhang Yu rush to the basket to grab rebounds, and at the same time replace Cebaros with Finley, giving the not young rookie another chance.

If Finley's defensive and athletic talents can be brought to play, the Lakers will recover some of their disadvantage on the defensive end.

At this time, the Lakers not only need Zhang Qiu and Magic to play their respective roles on offense, but also need Campbell, Finley and others to contribute more strength, as long as they can play a performance that the SuperSonics cannot ignore, it will affect the whole chess game.

In the second half, the Lakers started lineup: Van Exel, Finley, Zhang Mao, Magic, Campbell.

Cebaros is not very happy again, but his performance in this round is really not very good, although his achievements in cutting the bottom line are called historic, but this ability is more useful in the regular season, and the usefulness of coming to the playoffs will be greatly reduced, everyone's attention will not be easily relaxed in the playoffs, Jose Hawkins is a strong short guard, fast footwork, excellent defense, in 91 he teamed up with Barkley to fight Jordan for 5 rounds, and his experience is also very rich, Defending against a star like Cebaros who is good at taking chances is very suitable.

The Lakers, the "bottom-line rat", can drill around in the regular season, but they are very limited in the playoffs, which was the case with the Suns back then, and it was no different with the Lakers last year.

Cebaros was able to average 21 points per game in the regular season last year, but his performance in the playoffs shrank significantly, in the final analysis, he still has no ability to take the initiative to attack with the ball, and the offensive means are single, and he can only rely on others to feed the ball and cut in, once he encounters a team with an excellent defensive system in the playoffs, his skills will be wasted at least half.

If the Lakers' Magic is still in its prime, then Seballos will have a big role, and it will be difficult for opponents to juggle Zhang and Magic, and still have the energy to take care of a mouse. But now all it takes is Hawkins' close defense, coupled with Kemp's supplemental defense, to make Sebaros redundant. At this time, it is better to replace Finley to strengthen the defense, and the latter is also more stable than Sebaros in three-point shooting.

Michael Finley is very suitable for playing in a team like SuperSonics, but his experience is still insufficient, and even Zhang Yu feels constrained and extremely uncomfortable today, and Finley is even more confused as soon as he goes up.

At the start of the second half, Harris couldn't help but shake his head after watching a round, and Finley struggled to keep up with his teammates' pace and thinking in this kind of game. Not only him, but also Malik and Bisson, they don't know how to move just by moving in position, they are not decisive enough when they need to be decisive, and they can't stabilize their temperament when they need patience, so they just "panic".

Zhang Qi was too lazy to care about his teammates at this time, he agreed with Harris's arrangement in the midfield, the job of "grabbing rebounds", he felt that he was just not as focused as Rodman, and he didn't have the time to study the shooting points of teammates and opponents every day like that guy, but he was definitely not worse than Rodman in terms of talent.

"Grabbing rebounds", Rodman and Mutombo have a say, first of all, there must be talent as a guarantee, the talent here refers to height and arm span, rebound speed, prediction, reaction, card position and lower body strength, interior players must have these talents as a basis, in order to be qualified to be an excellent rebounder.

Rodman doesn't have the height, but other talents are top-notch, and Mutombo is not good enough for speed and lower body strength, but other talents are also top-notch, just less Rodman's enthusiasm and focus on rebounding.

Zhang is even better than Rodman in terms of talent, they are about the same height, but he is better than Rodman in terms of reach, strength and reflexes, but he is the star of a team after all, and it is impossible to focus on rebounding and defense like Rodman, let alone watch the opponent's video before every game to note down how each player shoots and where the basketball lands.

Rodman doesn't look like a serious guy, but he's actually very hardworking and focused, and he's a guy who can study the footage of his opponents and teammates until the wee hours of the morning.

If Kemp had Rodman's focus, he would have been the No. 1 striker in the active roster long ago.

"Hand him over to me!"

Zhang Zhu will have one more layer than Harris thought, since he is going to grab rebounds, then he can simply play the No. 4 position, he can completely defend Camp on the defensive end.

Schramf has the ability to break through the frame, but he is not the top in the No. 3 position, and when he gets older, he mainly uses three-point and back-to-back to attack, although the Magic is now a fat man, but he is not without a little defensive ability against Schramf, who is not a little bit of defense.

What Zhang Yu thought to himself was, even if the magician was passed, wouldn't he still be on the inside?

"yes, I can play the number four position!"

Zhang Qian felt that there was no problem with this idea, his defense was not slower than Kemp, and even he felt that he was faster, and the supersonic outside line was not very strong, couldn't he block the paint area like Kemp?

The change quickly paid off, and at 10:42 of the third quarter, the Lakers were ......

In this round, in the eyes of fans, Camp and Zhang Qi were entangled together, and in the end, both of them lost their balance and fell to the ground.

The Magic quickly split the ball from the outside, and accurately assisted Finley to cut to the basket and dunk.

At this moment, Kemp also fell to the ground with Zhang Fu, and could only watch Finley enter the forbidden area guarded by him and stage a violent dunk.

Zhang Zhu's attack made people see the shadow of Rodman, he first wrestled with Camp in the penalty area, although he was certainly not as good as Camp in real strength, but he relied on his chassis steadily, up and down his hands, and used the annoying play of sticking and playing to entangle Camp, and also wrapped his arm with Camp, even if he was knocked down, he could pull Camp to fight the street together.

In the end, he deliberately made the two of them lose their balance, and the magician immediately passed the ball when he saw the opportunity, and Kemp's defensive role was equivalent to non-existent.

"My sacrifice is too great!"

Zhang Qi felt that as the core of the team, he actually went to exchange with his opponent like a blue-collar worker, and he really didn't know whether this sacrifice was earned or lost?

But in any case, as long as the team can score, he will not die in vain.

When the Lakers came to the defensive end, Zhang Fu felt that "I'm sacrificing anyway, so I'll just switch positions with the Magic."

He has a lot of ways to defend Kemp, and unlike Rodman, who can only play on both ends of the floor against Kemp, he has more tools at his disposal.

This time in defense, Zhang Mao did not press before Kemp received the ball, he was letting the opponent receive the ball.

Payton quickly hoisted the ball to Kemp, who grabbed a position in the low post, but as soon as he received the basketball, Zhang Yu no longer let it go, and immediately resisted Kemp, using his solid lower set to make the opponent unable to get close to the restricted area.

Generally speaking, the NBA's interior lines that can run and jump will not have too good strength in the lower handicap, and Kemp's lower handicap is not solid, and Zhang Yu is enough to withstand behind him.

Kemp's lower handicap is indeed average, and he can't stand up to the Magic in the first half, but he can rely on his flexible turn to break through, and the Magic's bloated figure is difficult to stop him.

But it was different with Zhang Fu, he was faster and more flexible than Kemp, and his reaction was faster, so supersonic fans saw that Kemp's turn and breakthrough was predicted by Zhang Fu.

When the player is doing the turning action, the foot is not rooted, once blocked, as long as the strength of the two sides is not very different, the side holding the ball will definitely be bounced.

Camp was bounced away, and after turning around, he only had one foot to exert force, but Zhang Yu stood firm on both feet to slap him, and the result was naturally Camp Punch the street.

The referee's whistle blew just in time, which was a typical walking violation.

Kemp was stumbled after being kicked off, and it was impossible for a Magic to control the basketball and his feet at this moment, either making mistakes or walking. Kemp chose to hold the ball at this time, preferring to have a walking violation rather than give Zhang Qiu a chance to break the ball and counterattack, which is already very witty.

"If I knew you were such a dish, I should have come to play the number four position from the beginning."

It's not enough for Zhang Yu to take advantage, of course he has to mock a few words, because preventing Camp is not the goal, he must play with Camp mentality and beat him down.

Kemp's trash talk probably has the strength of Kobe Bryant's 0.8 later, which is basically a scum with a combat power of only 4, and it belongs to the existence of no connection recruit qualifications.

He himself is self-aware, so he can't hear Zhang Fu's sarcasm, so he turns around and runs to the front, and he can't be cowardly anymore!

Zhang Yu couldn't cry or laugh, he had encountered this situation many times, no matter whether these guys were good or bad for trash talk, they were almost unwilling to have more BB with him, and even Peyton's stinky mouth was unwilling to fight him, which made him very confused, and he couldn't understand why these guys were so cowardly?

"Don't misplace!"

George Karl shouted to Camp on the sidelines, of course Zhang Qi can take the initiative to change the defense, but the supersonic can not change the defense on the defensive end, Schramf just continue to defend Zhang Zhu, and he must be ignored.

However, the benefits of not being able to play joint defense are reflected, even if the supersonic does not want to change the defense, Zhang Zhu is drilling into the inner line, and they can't always use two people to follow Zhang Zhu.

No matter how tender Finley is, no matter how fat the magician is, it doesn't mean that they can't even throw in the empty seats.

"What is this kid playing?"

George Carr saw Zhang Qi keep squeezing inside, and a question mark popped up in his mind, he felt that this guy seemed to be playing blindly?

Zhang Wei said that he was not blind to a few shots, and he didn't care whether the supersonic changed the defense or not, he was here to grab rebounds......

"That's right, I almost forgot the coach's instructions, and my task in the second half was to grab the rebound."

Zhang Qi finally remembered his task, but his hands were not idle, and he naturally gave Camp an elbow after grabbing the position.

At the moment, Zhang Mao has three defenders around him - Perkins, Kemp, and Schramf, but the ball is not in his hands, which makes the supersonic players very embarrassed, what is the use of them now surrounding a guy without the ball under the basket?

At the moment, the SuperSonics don't know if they want to surround him, or spread out to defend the rest of the Lakers?

But no matter what they do, they have to make a quick decision, because it will easily leak open space for Lakers players.

Finley quickly received the pass and took a decisive shot from the outside......

"Death to me!"

Zhang Fu opened the bow left and right under the basket, attracting the full attention of the three supersonic players, but the basketball missed the arc and was snatched back by Finley himself.

"it!"

The three supersonic players felt that they had been fooled, and Zhang Zhu seemed to be just a front, and Finley, who grabbed the rebound, hit the shot again and finally hit.

"This bastard is so damn here!"

Zhang Zhu's style of play in the restricted area made the supersonic players secretly hate, they had a lot of defensive routines, but they didn't deal with Zhang Zhu's countermeasures to squeeze under the basket, especially this guy didn't have a basketball in his hand, they couldn't wrap him, and they couldn't wrap him.

Sounds like a bit of a mess, and that's right.

If the Lakers don't come up with some unorthodox tactics and some bizarre play, it is impossible to win the SuperSonics.

Half a minute later......

"Mine!"

Zhang Qi yelled again, as if this output would be higher.

Van Exel missed a three-point shot, and Kemp wanted to jump up and compete with Zhang Mao for this rebound, but found that he didn't seem to be able to grab the opponent?

Zhang Qi is not as high as Kangpu, and the bullet speed of the two is also half a catty, but he is stuck in the most advantageous position.

Kemp is not as accurate as Zhang Fu in the selection of positions, obviously he did not repeatedly watch the shooting videos of the Lakers players, this time the rebounding scramble, he does not know himself and the other, can not play his physical advantages.

"Haha, it's really mine!"

Zhang Yu was very careful after grabbing the rebound this time, and he was sure to make up the basket himself in the past, but at this moment, he used the safest way to directly dial the ball to the outside.

The Magic took advantage of the unstable gap in the supersonic formation to catch the ball from outside the three-point line and make a decisive shot.

"Huh!"

Magic's three-point shot was not particularly impressive, but it was stable at the critical moment, and this shot caused the SuperSonics to hurriedly ask for a timeout, and the score had been narrowed to 53:49, leaving only 3 points to remain.

"Well done!"

"This rebound is so handsome!"

"Sean is like a chick in front of you!"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€

After the Lakers players took a timeout, they all went up and slapped their ass, and it wasn't until Harris coughed hard with the tactical board that the group stopped the shameless touting.

"What are they going to do with me next?" Zhang Qian didn't know how the supersonic would deal with him, but when he thought that even he didn't know what he was going to do later, the confidence in his heart rose, "Lao Tzu will do whatever he thinks of this time...... When I want to control the ball, I can control the ball, I can grab rebounds when I want to grab rebounds, I can play singles when I want to, and I can shoot when I want to...... I don't believe you can target me! ā€

Supersonic really doesn't know how to deal with Zhang Zhu, and George Carr can fight how he wants, so as to respond to all changes. However, if Zhang Qi continues to drill under the basket, the two of them will have to step back and open their hands to clamp him, and the outside players will control their defenders, and it will not be difficult to deal with a Campbell.

George Karl also saw that the Lakers were planning to grab the frontcourt rebounds, so even if they leaked Campbell, this guy would not be too far from the restricted area, otherwise Zhang Yi would not be able to grab two no matter how strong he is.

In this case, let the two inside players stay in the restricted area, and he wants to see how many rebounds Zhang Yu can snatch from their heads with an outside lineman?

However, George Karl didn't empathize with him, his two inside lines are all cowering on the inside, and the defense in the middle will become weak. If you don't move, the middle area is enough for Zhang Fu to play, but if you move, you may be disrupted by Zhang Fu's defensive formation.

After the game restarted, although Zhang Qi could no longer easily grab the rebounds in the frontcourt, he really noticed that the defense in the middle area had become weak.

The Magician also noticed this, and the two cunning guys began to make a fuss in the middle, and the supersonic defense began to become unstable again, especially after Zhang Yu hit all the shots from the back of his two retreats, and George Carr wanted to call another timeout.

But the pause was used too quickly, and after a while, there would be some moths, and he would have no pause.

Payton stood up when the team was passive, George Carr still cared too much about how to target the Lakers, in fact, the superSonics also had a lot of routines that could make the Lakers unable to eat and go around, such as Payton's offense is a good way.

The supersonic mid is certainly unstable, but the Lakers' side is not only unstable in the middle, but their outside defense has also become unstable after Zhang Yu came to the restricted area, and the leakage is actually greater.

Although the Lakers narrowed the score gap several times, they relied on the steady play of Payton and Hawkins to quickly stabilize the SuperSonics.

Zhang Qi did not rest in the third quarter, his personal data rose to 21 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists, and he cut down 10 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists in this quarter.

However, the score was still 69:75, the SuperSonics were highly efficient on the offensive end, and the Lakers' defense was also helpless against the SuperSonics, and until the end of the third quarter, the SuperSonics always maintained a lead of nearly 5 points or more.

"Rebounding has an effect, but we can't stop them."

Zhang Qian was very helpless, he went to the inside line to make Camp depressed for a whole quarter, but Payton and Hawkins also made the Lakers' outside line depressed for a whole quarter.

On the Lakers' side, whether it is Finley or Seballos, they are powerless against the supersonic outside offense, not to mention the Magic to play the No. 3 position, all relying on Zhang Qi to make up for him on the inside, do you really have to break him into two to win?

Zhang Fu didn't know how to dop, and Harris only gave him a three-minute rest in the fourth quarter, and the Lakers trailed by 10 points in the blink of an eye.

At this time, you can see the importance of Zhang Qi to the Lakers, and when he is on the court, the supersonic will have a headache on both offensive and defensive ends. But once he was not on the court, the whole supersonic team felt light, no one made them distressed, no one made them entangled, and Camp was the one who felt the deepest.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Kemp found that he no longer had to pay half of his attention to Zhang Mao, nor did he have to worry about being elbowed by him, let alone worry about how to break through Zhang Mao's cunning defense on the offensive end, he could also play as much as he wanted, attack whenever he wanted, and shoot whenever he wanted.

Bison felt like he was being pressed to the ground and ravaged in these three minutes, and how did Camp play in front of him, first with a face frame to break through the long-range glide dunk, then a back turn to break through and shake him into a 2+1, and finally ended with a long-range shot with two points, two words - finish!

If Harris hadn't replaced Zhang Qiu in advance, it is estimated that Kemp would have scored the ball with a hook hand in his next attack.

"I thought Camp had changed his mind, but it was the result of a different defender."

"Looking at it this way, the Magic didn't let Camp explode in the first half, and the defense was not bad."

"I feel sorry for Leon, teammate CBA!"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€

Zhang Qi had a strong resonance with the fans, so he went down to rest for a while, not only did the supersonic explode, but Kemp also resumed his performance in the last game, and his mentality collapsed a little.

The score was 9 minutes and 21 seconds in the fourth quarter, and the score was 69:82.

Kemp scored seven straight points to bring the margin to 13, the biggest margin of the day, and it was in the deadly fourth quarter.

Zhang Qi also felt very desperate after he came on the court, in the third quarter, he was tired and tired, and he was a father and a mother, and even did the dirty work, and only helped the team recover a few points.

As a result, he just went down to take a rest, and his teammates not only made him lose his previous efforts, but also dug the pit deeper.

"I think you might as well bury me!"

Zhang Qi said that his heart was too tired, how to fight?

Although the Lakers players don't know what Zhang Qi is thinking, they can guess from his sad expression that their core mentality should be about to explode!

O'Neill in front of the TV can understand Zhang Mao's mentality at the moment, and he also feels that his teammates are very weak, if the two of them have no grudges, it is not impossible to join hands next year.

But then when he thought of playing in the Lakers, the merit was Zhang Ling, and the pot was carried by others, O'Neal quickly shook his head, it was terrible!

Zhang Fu's mentality is really about to collapse, he wants to narrow the score to single digits as soon as possible, but when the mentality is unstable, he scrambles for rebounds and fouls, breaks through the layup and is covered, and the SuperSonics take the opportunity to continue to expand the difference.

At 6 minutes and 59 seconds in the fourth quarter, when the Magic returned to the court, the score had become 71:90, and Zhang Zhu played two minutes and only allowed the Lakers to score 2 points, that is, they only scored 2 points in the fourth quarter.

"I'm FXXX!"

A minute later, when Perkins hit from outside the three-point line, Zhang Yu got the basketball that fell from the basket under the basket, and finally couldn't control his inner irritability, and slapped the basketball against the floor.

The referee glanced at the side, and he had already blown a technical foul as usual, but looking at the scoreboard on the sidelines, there was really no need for that.
