623. Kobe Bryant wants to reclaim the record?
Wharton whistled with his little finger like his first coach, Zen Master, and assistant coach Kim Terry knew he was about to call a timeout and immediately reported to the referee in the bottom corner.
The Warriors called a timeout, Wharton was holding the strategy board, a little big, and when he was head coach at a Lakers Development League affiliate, he knew how willing D'Antoni was to accept the most popular style of play, with the exception of the Spurs, of course.
However, he really didn't expect that even if D'Antoni knew that he was making a wedding dress for others, he would still integrate the Death Five into the Lakers, and played a match, so that Wharton did not dare to expose the weaknesses of the Five Small style of play and strategically abandon that style of play.
"This mustache is determined to disgust me and not let me win 30 consecutive victories!" Wharton thought to himself, but drew with a tactical board in his hand.
There is no need to die five small, and Wharton does not know how to play other ways, such as the triangle attack!
The Spurs system Warriors can't play, if there is Green or Whiteside to play, but the Warriors' best defensive interior is Bogut...... He was expected to be elbowed to death by Whiteside, and he was sure that as long as he dared to go to Bogut, D'Antoni would dare to send Antetokounmpo and Green to partner on the inside, and they would be killed directly.
Wharton switched to an outside combination of Iguodala, Klay Thompson, and Barnes.
On the Lakers' side, D'Antoni replaced the strongest outside combination of Antetokounmpo, Kobe Bryant, and Liu Ren.
Coming back from a timeout, Iguodala holds the ball.
I don't know how it was, Iguodala could have played so poorly in the regular season, but when it came to critical moments, or when it was time to chase points, he just got up again.
Iguodala wanted to beat Liu Ren strongly, but Liu Ren went straight up unexpectedly.
Iguodala was a little depressed, but he was also able to shoot suddenly, and he led the Philadelphia 76ers to the strong Black Eight Bulls' little AI!
The unhappy Iguodala decisively prepared to use his proud physical fitness to force Liu Ren...... Sudden immobility......
Iguodala was embarrassed, and he finally understood why players with great physical fitness, whether it was Thompson or Barnes, were deflated when they met Liu Ren, this guy was too good for strength and speed.
There were only two people who made Iguodala feel this way, one was Artest, whom he met in his youth, and the other was James, who was on the All-Defensive Team after entering '07......
Iguodala knew that the strong breakthrough would not work, and he stepped back decisively, and Liu Ren pounced on it, ready to block.
However, this time it was Liu Ren's turn to be dumbfounded, Iguodala did shoot correctly, but he did take the initiative to rub it against him, and then let out an "ah" and threw the ball into the sky......
Depend on! When did Iguodala, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who is known for his toughness, also learn to touch porcelain!
was blown such a foul, Liu Ren couldn't cry or laugh.
But who called him too strong in his own innate subjective consciousness and thought that Iguodala was a tough guy! I didn't even expect Iguodala to fight like this.
Fortunately, Iguodala made one free throw, one of two free throws.
Lakers offense.
Antetokounmpo advances.
Liu Ren sat in the low post, Barnes followed him, followed by Kobe Bryant with Iguodala, and Klay Thompson stood in front of Antetokounmpo.
It's so high, why don't you play center!
Klay Thompson couldn't complain in his heart, and he said the heart of the 29 teams in the league except for the Lakers.
The best candidate for the Warriors to defend Antetokounmpo is Klay Thompson, don't underestimate his physical fitness because he is so accurate with three-point shooting and so good at running......
With a height of more than two meters, good strength, excellent confrontation and mobility, the only player in the Warriors lineup who meets these four conditions to defend Antetokounmpo is Klay Thompson.
In fact, if the Warriors still have the best defensive team, it is not Iguodala, but Klay Thompson!
Antetokounmpo is so tall after all, he can be an advantage or a weak when he breaks through, has a high center of gravity on the dribble, and is prone to mistakes when disturbed by strong people.
Since you can't play, then don't play, Antetokounmpo has developed a mentality that doesn't pay so much attention to data in the Lakers' environment.
Liu Ren had already leaned on Barnes on the inside at this time, and Antetokounmbo Ma passed over.
Liu Ren received the ball and made a decisive push, and the Lakers fans at the scene immediately widened their eyes.
The trick of the man who was the ultimate form of the flexible dead fat man back then is here again.
. A certain fat man in the T live broadcast hall began to yell again in the contemptuous eyes of another fat man and a scheming man.
Liu Ren knocked Barnes away with two or three hits, threw the rebound when Vallejo came to make up the defense, and Nance Jr., who had already been ready, jumped on the spot and dunked.
can't prevent it, it's normal, it's difficult for a traditional big man to prevent Liu Ren, who is almost a scoundrel and relies on his body to beat him, and the bag will leak people.
However, the purpose of the Warriors is not to defend, but to score, and if you can't prevent it, you can't prevent it.
Iguodala advanced to the frontcourt, he knew that it was unlikely that he wanted to rely on a breakthrough to organize the offense, he just played a trick and used Harden's move to get two points, he didn't expect to make another successful foul, Harden didn't want to try because he wanted to make Liu Ren foul on the five embarrassments.
In fact, the ball just now was just Iguodala wanting to try Liu Ren's defense, and then decisively more powerful than he imagined, basically to the extent that Kobe Bryant won three consecutive championships, that is, he was a step stronger than him, and the best defense was really not given randomly.
Defense is not practiced, and talent is also needed to become a defensive powerhouse, which is the same as the difference between Ariza and Vujasic, the two are about the same age, they both played in the Lakers, and they played in the same position in the Lakers, and both of them are very conscious of defense, and Fang Shuo is very hard.
However, Ariza has become one of the league's leading defensive giants, the championship puzzle that all championship teams want, while Vujacic is very hard to practice defense and work the court, but the defense is worse than Nash, saying that he is an ATM insults the noble spit function of the ATM.
Iguodala dribbled to the right and brought Liu Ren past before passing the ball out of the way, while Barnes drew a pick-and-roll from Vallejo to block Antetokounmpo and bypass the baseline.
This tactic, Kobe Bryant felt that he had seen it at the beginning of this quarter, and hurriedly went to the baseline to block Barnes.
However, Iguodala's pass was for Thompson!
Thompson, who was originally crouching on the left side of the three-second zone, made a three-point shot from outside the three-point line......
Hit!
The point difference was chased by the Warriors to 7 points!
The outside line composed of three guys who can get a beep on three-point point is really hard to defend! And that's in Curry's absence.
Liu Ren thinks that the good thing is that the Warriors do not have Green, although there is Randle, but Randle has average talent in mid-range and long-range shooting, mainly because the breakthrough organization is very strong, and the Warriors dare not use the death five small style of play against the Lakers, so they can only send three outside lines, otherwise give the Warriors a Green, even if the Lakers also have Green, it will be difficult to deal with the Warriors.
The Warriors were quick to step back after scoring, and Speights and Vallejo didn't even bother to grab rebounds, and Whiteside was clubbing there.
Liu Ren sent the ball to Antetokounmpo, who pushed forward slowly.
That's right, it's time to press the rhythm again, because the Lakers are on Whiteside, so positional battles are the best option for the Lakers.
Liu Ren went to the inside line after arriving at the front court and found that Barnes actually began to go around the front.
This made Liu Ren a little depressed, and he still wanted to continue the cool feeling of pushing like a tank under the basket, not to mention, although the playing style taught by O'Neal led Liu Ren off the painting style, but that style of play is really cool, and the fans are also cool to watch.
Liu Ren pulled out to catch the ball, Kobe Bryant continued his off-ball play, Iguodala's defense was much stronger than Joey Clark, and Kobe didn't want to go hard to reduce his efficiency.
The most important thing for Kobe Bryant now is to win a seventh championship and prove that he is not old.
The best way to prove that you are not old is to play super efficiently.
Liu Ren received the ball, decisively forced Barnes, and once again ran him into the inside, but this time Barnes did not coax, but decisively squeezed up, even if the result was the same, Liu Ren still entered the inside, but the delay of hitting Barnes made Valecha on the inside stand outside the reasonable collision area, inside the arc of the free throw line, blocking Liu Ren's impact on the basket, standing high and waving his hands to prevent Liu Ren from passing the basket under Whiteside.
Liu Ren feigned that Valejo didn't eat, and really wanted to throw the opponent for more than ten fouls, anyway, Vallejo was a substitute who played for more than ten minutes, Liu Ren didn't dare to challenge his free throws, so he had no choice but to pass the ball to Nance Jr.
And Nance Jr. was indeed a little thinner, and he couldn't squeeze Speight, so he could only pass to Kobe Bryant, who responded.
Bryant dribbled the ball out of the three-point line, picked up the ball and shook Iguodala twice, Iguodala defended the lever and didn't eat feints at all.
As a result, Kobe Bryant did not have difficulty creating difficulty, and directly pulled back three points!
Iguodala jumped up and blocked the first time...... Sealed ...... But it still did the perfect interference.
But!
Kobe Bryant's three-pointer crossed a flat arc and plunged into the basket!
Return!
Kobe Bryant made his sixth three-pointer in a row!
Liu Ren twitched his eyebrows, Kobe's state today is a little too good! The strong throw also went in! What does this guy want to do, to snatch back the three-point streak record? Or do you want to steal the single-game three-point record? It's only half time, and this old man has already made 6 three-pointers!
The point difference is back to 10 points, which is not good for the Warriors, no matter how hard they score, the Lakers will immediately chase it back, which makes the Warriors players very uncomfortable, but they have no choice but to continue to chase points and give Curry time to rest, Curry is the same as Durant, invincible shooting ability, the biggest limitation on them is physical fitness.
