"I didn't expect the burst tactics to be so powerful, if Meng's pull-up jump shot and mid-range shooting are better, then his upper limit is not easy to say, and the lower limit is at least the same level as Erwin. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Larry Bird in front of the TV held a cigar in his hand and said to himself: "Spurs are really lucky, but I don't know, this luck brings you glory or disaster?" ”

When the third quarter of the game between the Spurs and the Lakers ended, 78-75, the Spurs entered the fourth quarter with a 3-point advantage, except for the first quarter of this game, the defense of both sides in the rest of the time was like a void, the Spurs could not prevent the Lakers, and the Lakers could not prevent the Spurs, according to the current state, the game was over, and the two teams were basically running for 110 points.

The game between the Spurs and the Lakers has indeed exceeded most people's expectations, the Lakers, who originally had a great advantage, still trailed the Spurs after the end of the 3rd quarter, and the Lakers' offensive tactics in the game can be said to be successful, except for the first quarter, the Lakers played smoothly on the offensive end. But the more this is the case, the more anxious Phil Jackson becomes, if the Lakers can't play their own tactics, then it means that the Lakers still have room to adjust, but the Lakers have now played well enough, in this case, the Lakers are still behind the Spurs, so from this situation, the Lakers' chances are getting smaller and smaller.

At the moment of rest, Phil Jackson has been thinking about a solution, but the result is a little helpless, the Lakers basically have no room for adjustment now, and several players on the court have played well enough. And the Lakers are still facing a very big crisis, that is, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant have played more than 30 minutes in the first three quarters, while the Spurs' Duncan has rested for a long time in the first and third quarters, and Meng Xu has sat on the bench for almost a whole quarter in the second quarter.

"Phil, don't think too much, we can only rely on the choices of these players now." Seeing that head coach Phil Jackson kept frowning and scratching his head from time to time, Lakers assistant coach Jim Clemens reminded on the side that the fourth quarter was about to start, and head coach Phil Jackson was still sitting there thinking about the problem without the slightest expression.

"Hmm." Hearing the words of his assistant coach, Phil Jackson also smiled, in this round of the series, Phil Jackson has always wanted to beat Popovich at the tactical level, but judging from today's game, it is undoubtedly a failure. As the best nanny coach in the NBA, Phil Jackson has always thought about how to get the most out of the team's leading players. But under the current system of triangle offense, because the tactical positioning is the planner, O'Neal can't play his maximum lethality, in this case, in order to finally defeat the Spurs to win this series, Phil Jackson decided to liberate O'Neal and give up the triangle offense to O'Neal.

"Shaq, do you have any fitness problems?" Phil Jackson got up and walked over to O'Neal, and although Jim Clemens had already laid out the tactics that the team would use in the fourth quarter, Phil Jackson decided to overturn him.

"Coach, there's no problem." For the sake of victory, for the championship, O'Neal is willing to be limited by Phil Jackson and limited by the triangle offense, but once Phil Jackson can't bring himself the winning championship, then Phil Jackson and the triangle offense will be worthless in O'Neal's eyes, O'Neal will use his own way to win, although O'Neal has never been able to bring himself the championship in this way, but the extremely conceited O'Neal still has a glimmer of hope in his heart for his own way. Looking at each other, he instantly understood Phil Jackson's intentions, and O'Neal stood up from his seat: "Coach, leave everything to me, we must win this game in the end." ”

After the start of the fourth quarter, O'Neal held the ball below the free-throw line as usual, and this time it was Tim Duncan who defended O'Neal, and after a long break in the low quarter, Duncan reappeared in the center position.

After O'Neal turned his back to Duncan and headed to the basket twice in a row, before Shaun Elliott's bag was in place, he hit a hook shot from 10 feet out with an extremely quick half-turn to get rid of Duncan's defense.

"Did the Lakers change tactics?" After O'Neal's two consecutive singles, Magic Johnson seems to have found some clues, in the Lakers' triangle offense, O'Neal held the ball and singled to deliberately attract the bag and then pass the ball, but after the start of the fourth quarter, O'Neal did not have the slightest intention of passing the ball on two consecutive offenses, but wanted to rely on his own personal ability to score directly.

"Is Shaq trying to take over the game? The fourth quarter has just begun, isn't it too early? "There are 12 minutes in a game, and I don't know if O'Neal, who started to work now, can hold on until the last minute.

"It seems that Shaq is trying to win this victory for the Lakers in his own way." The magician still appreciates O'Neill's choice, because it was a normal phenomenon in their time, and the tactics should be as simple as possible.

82-83, only 3 minutes into the fourth quarter, when O'Neal relied on his strong individual ability to score 8 points in a row to help the Lakers overtake the score, Popovich immediately called a timeout.

When the game restarted, the Spurs' tactics changed a lot, the Spurs, who have always been based on positional warfare as the main offensive method, actually played an unprecedented fast attack, every time O'Neal completed the attack, no matter whether O'Neal scored or not, the Spurs players who grabbed the basketball would directly pass the ball to the midfield, where Avery Johnson, who received the ball, would cooperate with Meng Xu to launch a fast attack. The change in the Spurs' tactics not only helped the Spurs bite the score tightly, but more importantly, they could consume O'Neal to a greater extent through fast breaking.

"The Spurs launched a fast break again, Meng Xu dodged Kobe's defensive layup and scored, and O'Neal just ran past the halfway line." Seeing the situation on the court, the magic also shook his head helplessly, although O'Neal's speed is much faster than that of ordinary center players, but after all, it cannot be compared with the positions of guards and small forwards. This kind of meaningless switchback run will consume too much physical strength of O'Neal, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will not be possible to reach the second half of the fourth season, and O'Neal's physical strength will be in crisis.
