Lakers fans were silent earlier, not because they had an opinion about Zhang, but because they were waiting for an opportunity to stand up and cheer for him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zike Hearn said on the commentary bench: "The Clippers played well, they had a good understanding on both ends of the floor, and if you want to break down this difficult defense, you have to stay calm and don't force your shots, sometimes the defensive pressure can make your hands feel cold, but as long as we keep working on it, it's not a big problem." ”

Zhang Zhu does play very calmly, he and Divac have a different style of strategy, after reading the opponent's defense, he will first use his breakthrough to impact the opponent's defensive formation, as long as the defender comes to flank him, then the defensive formation is likely to be chaotic. Even if there is no chaos, at least there will be some transfers, and it will be up to him to see if he can seize the opportunity.

The reason why the Jazz's defense is strong is that they will not be easily disrupted by their own breakthroughs, even when the formation changes, there are very few loopholes, and if you want to break through this defense, you can only rely on strength to break through, and there are not many opportunities for him to exploit loopholes.

The supersonic defense is stronger than the emergency, and they will have some holes in the formation movement, this is because the discipline and tactical literacy are not good enough, but the supersonic ability to fill the leaks is very strong, and many holes in the eyes of offensive players can be made up by amazing athleticism.

The Rockets and Spurs are more inclined to the Jazz's defensive style, but the former is seriously aging, and the latter is not strong enough to be strong, and they are both a little worse this year.

The Clippers' defense is also about teamwork, but discipline is far greater than aggression, mainly because the guards and centers are not tough enough, so it is difficult to play aggressive, and playing fake falls and the like is their forte, and the result is also explored by the Lakers.

Zhang Qian soon discovered that the Clippers' defense looked like a good formation, but it was just looking, and after really entering the inside, it had a bit of a strong outside and a dry taste.

Except for Lloy at the power forward position, almost no one in the Clippers is good at defense, and most of them are players who are strong in offense and weak in defense. It's just that their motivation is not bad, and the head coach is good at adjusting the collective defense, which creates the illusion that the defense seems to be good.

Soon, when Zhang asked his teammates to lure Roy away, who was threatening him, he single-handedly stepped inside and scored the ball against two defenders.

Now he found out that the biggest problem of the Clippers is that these guys still can't defend well!

"I've been doing it for a long time, so I'm not afraid!"

Zhang found that as long as he lured that Lloy away, the Clippers' restricted area defense could no longer pose much of a threat to him.

In the first quarter, the Clippers played the opening three minutes of good ball, and when Zhang began to attack from both wings, the Clippers' defense quickly became unsupportable.

Bill Fitch didn't expect his team to be beaten by the opponent after only three minutes, and the high school student's breakthrough made Rodney, who had high hopes for a summer signing, perform like a disaster.

Don't look at Rodney's appearance of five big and three thick, his performance on the offensive end is also good, but his defense in the lower three does not match his physique, Zhang Yu can pass him in almost one step, even if Rodney insists on chasing defense every time, but it is difficult for Divac on the inside to cooperate with him to complete the pinch attack in the first time, these are all problems of personal defensive ability.

Zhang Mao's own scoring is not high, and he mostly chooses to pass the ball after completing the breakthrough, which is to assist rather than score.

He had already figured out at the timeout to help the team build up enough of an advantage and then use his individual offense to find an opportunity.

This is why he seems to be awesome, and it saves people from saying that he plays too alone.

The Clippers also found that their defense seemed to be useless, and although there was not much loss of position on the surface, it just couldn't prevent Zhang Mao's strong burst.

In the end, Bill Fitch had no choice but to order the team to attack the Lakers.

The Lakers' defense is just like that, Zhang Mao's single defense has improved quickly, but the team's defensive system has progressed slowly, and it can even be said that there is no system at all, it is basically a single defense + nearby pressing, and then everyone protects the defensive rebound, and in addition to that, it depends on their own ability.

Fortunately, the Lakers' five starters have no one to hold back in the single defense, and the individual defense of these five people is above the passing line, from the No. 1 position to the No. 5 position is probably B-, B, B+, B, B-'s defensive ability.

Zhang Mao's defensive potential is greater, but it can only be called good at the moment.

But even a few of the Lakers' key benches are in the same place, and the defense is basically between B- and B.

While this kind of defensive ability can't make the Lakers win on defense, it won't be impossible to win because of defense.

As long as they play well and all three outside players play, then they have a chance to win against some strong teams.

Ceballos scored a game-high 12 points in the first quarter, and the baseline mouse was very consistent, and as long as either Zhang and Van Exel played well, his performance must not be bad.

Zhang Qi scored 5 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists in the first quarter, and today he played an amazing breakthrough shot!

In addition to 5 direct assists in the first quarter, he also had at least 3 indirect assists, and it can be said that his performance alone is directly related to 60% of the team's scores.

"Well done, that's how it hits!"

Harris was happy on the sidelines, and Zhang Mao's breakthrough became smarter and smarter, and today he did not go to the opponent's defensive strong point, and kept avoiding Lloy's defensive range, and attacked Divac, who was relatively weak defensively, throughout the whole process.

And he didn't fall into the opponent's fake fall trap once, but let Divac have an embarrassing fake fall failure.

The score was 32:28 in the first quarter, and the Clippers' offense was not bad, if it weren't for Zhang Mao's strong presence, the Clippers' performance would have been amazing.

In the second quarter, the execution of the Clippers players got better.

The biggest feature of the Clippers team coached by Bill Fitch is that they don't stick to the ball on the offensive end.

It's the opposite of the Lakers' style, where Zhang is eager to stick the ball to himself, while the Clippers players are willing to run off the ball and cover for each other, which allows them to consistently create spot-set and open-cut scores.

The Lakers' bench was stronger, but the Clippers' bench overtook the score, and the person to blame for this was Van Exel.

Harris now staggers Van Exel and Zhang's playing times, and he likes to let Zhang play until the last two minutes of the first quarter before replacing him, and if Zhang plays well, it could also allow him to play the full first quarter and then replace him midway through the second quarter.

In the second half of the first quarter, he would replace Van Exel and then let him lead the bench in the first half of the second quarter to steal points.

Van Exel's style of play is similar to that of Zhang, with both men preferring to stick the ball to their bodies and let their teammates play at their own pace, so possession is unbelievably high.

But the difference is that his performance is less and less than Zhang Zhu, which is also related to Van Exel's own mentality, he wants to play better than Zhang Zhu too much.

Whenever Zhang is doing well on the pitch, Van Exel wants to perform more and more, but this thinking only affects his judgment and makes him even more unable to make choices that benefit the whole team.

In the second quarter of team basketball with the Clippers, Van Exel's sticky ball play failed to achieve the same efficiency as Zhang Fu.

Van Exel's passing options were so poor that he couldn't seem to figure out where he was going to get the ball to his team-mates.

Zhang Yu didn't know if this guy had watched too much of his own sudden point play, and Van Exel's choice of timing was actually similar to him, but this guy ignored the difference in size and technique between the two.

A lot of times, he can pass the ball in a position and timing, but Van Exel's change may not be able to get the ball out smoothly.

Van Exel is less than 190cm tall and does not have his ability to fight, so he is more likely to be limited by the bag defense after breaking through, and even if he plays the ball, he is unlikely to create the same chances as himself.

"You're honestly my deputy, why do you have to think about being the boss? If you really have the strength, it's okay, but you're so talented, and your level is almost at the top, which team can you go to be the boss? ”

Zhang Wei shook his head, he really couldn't figure out what Van Exel was thinking.

He has long shown potential far beyond him, and now he is even better at fighting, why does he always refuse to be a second-in-command with peace of mind?

Is there really such a person in this world who would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of an ox?

Van Exel knew he wasn't playing well, so he pushed harder, using his fearless breakthroughs to get into the enemy's heart again and again, and then splitting out passes that didn't have much tactical effect, or throwing shots that weren't very reliable.

At 6 minutes and 56 seconds in the second quarter, Zhang Yu was replaced in advance, because the score became 40:44, and the Clippers overtook the score.

"See, you really can't do without me!"

Zhang Fu felt a little smug in his heart, and of course he said this in his heart, because his first touch of the ball after coming on the field created a scoring opportunity for Van Exel.

This time, after he and Bisson blocked the pick-and-roll, he suddenly sent a pass from behind the crowd to help Van Exel get a shot from beyond the three-point line.

Although the ball was not delivered, at least the chances were created and the whole process was much easier than when Van Exel had the ball.

The magician stood up on the sidelines to applaud Zhang Qi, his signature stunt, and his "No· Look· "Pass" makes Lakers fans crazy every time!

It's the same now, even if the ball didn't go in in the end, the Lakers fans still gave Zhang Mao a crazy cheer, and this pass made them see the "legacy".

Zhang Mao's "No· Look· Pass" is still a lot worse, the magician can send tricky passes from various angles without looking at people, Zhang Mao can only pass some simple balls for the time being, and the number of times he uses it in the game is not much, after all, this is not the way he is good at passing, he prefers to throw the ball vigorously, which can reduce the probability of interception by the opponent.

The Clippers began to increase their efforts in the second quarter to wrap Zhang Qi, but due to the limitations of the players' defensive ability, their bags were not timely enough and the intensity was not enough, which always allowed Zhang Qi to find the gap in the pass.

"Sure enough, the strong team and the weak team are different." Zhang Mao thought of the defense of the Jazz and the Sonics, and then looked at the defense of the Clippers, which is obviously the biggest difference between the strong team and the weak team.

The Lakers' defense has also changed, and they have begun to pack Divac in the middle and high post, although the Serbian and Montenegro center has solid fundamentals and is not easy to be cut off, but this can affect his ball-handling strategy in the high post and center.

Harris sees it very accurately that the biggest problem for the Clippers right now is that they don't have another reliable playmaking core on the outside other than Divac.

It is certainly not enough for a team to be organized and executed by a big man alone, and there must be a point on the outside that can echo it in order to really threaten the opponent's defence.

Divac is definitely a qualified high-post playmaker, but Brent Barry is not a good defender, although his passing is a bit sassy, but the ball control skills are not as good as the regular point guard, and Van Exel's fierce defense is enough to limit the rookie's play.

The Clippers players were still actively running and covering, but they found it difficult to get the pass in the first place after running out of space.

The Lakers' offense is unaffected, and Ceballos is still an unstoppable point for the Clippers, especially after they have strengthened their packing, and Ceballos' cut is more threatening.

At the end of the first half, Zhang Qi handed out a full nine assists, and Ceballos scored a game-high 20 points, and the cooperation of the two on the strong and weak sides left the Clippers with little to do.

The Lakers also regained the lead at halftime at 54-52, and most importantly, they regained the initiative in the game.

At halftime, Jerry West took a special look at one of the players on the Clippers lineup, wondering if that Lloy Ott was for sale?

They can use Van Exel to trade, it's really not good, and they can also pack and add a Bisson.
