Chapter 341: Chicken Ribs
Butler smiled happily. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
From the Heat, he lost his starting spot due to injury.
After arriving at the Lakers, he also didn't have many opportunities on the offensive end, ranking behind Kobe, Lu Xiaofeng and Odom, only a little more than Mime.
However, every opportunity he had was very good.
The offensive iron triangle of Kobe, Lu Xiaofeng and Odom has attracted most of the defensive attention, and although he averages more than 15 points per game, opponents have always habitually ignored him, and the defensive pressure he faces is even lower than that of Meme.
Whenever the opponent is attracted by Lu Xiaofeng and Odom's blocking, and wants to keep an eye on the "scoring champion" Kobe, Butler will take the opportunity to quietly cut in and sneak under the basket.
And Lu Xiaofeng and Odom can always find opportunities, and they can always pass good balls, so that Butler's positive running can be rewarded.
Butler's motivation to run is getting higher and higher.
This creates a virtuous circle.
This move is "striking the east and attacking the west" or "darkness Chen Cang", which has to be played once or twice in each game, which is Butler's exclusive tactic.
Hinrich knows Butler's sneak attack tactics, but he is not at ease with Eddie Curry's defense, for fear that as soon as Lu Xiaofeng bursts in, Eddie Curry will shrink his defense and give Cook a chance to shoot three points.
Eddie Curry's slowness or laziness on the defensive end, although his teammates don't say it, in the game, they always subconsciously distrust him.
Eddie Curry's defensive loophole, Lu Xiaofeng has long seen it, and his purpose is obvious, that is, to seize the opponent's loophole and keep attacking.
The advantages of the Bulls' interior line have become ornaments and cannot be played at all.
The score came to 14:6, and Skels couldn't stand it anymore and called a timeout.
The Bulls have 1 win and 10 losses, the bottom of the East, for his own position, Skels has no intention of breaking the jar, he always believes that after years of rotten, the Bulls' current lineup is time to produce results.
Therefore, even in the face of the Lakers, who are the first in the league and have won 15 consecutive games in the opening game, Skyles will try to win.
And the Bulls' only chance is on the inside.
But now the Bulls are being led by the Lakers, and Eddie Curry on the inside has completely become an ornament, so Skels couldn't help it, took the tactical board to write and draw, and commanded his disciples.
After some arrangement, it is on the stage again.
Back on the offensive end, Eddie Curry tried to exert force, but Cook was like a kraft candy, standing in front of him at any time, just not letting him catch the ball.
And the Bulls' players, after paying the price of a turnover, also seemed to give up on the plan to pass him over the top, and Hinrich saw that there was no chance, so he dribbled the ball to the top of the arc.
Eddie Curry is good at offense, and Davis, the partner that Skells has assigned to him, is good at defense.
Davis's role on the offensive end is only to cover and scramble for rebounds.
Skels had a new tactic, Davis no longer covered the perimeter players, he saw Cook continue to go around, he ran over, stood next to Eddie Curry to block, Eddie Curry slipped from the baseline, and ran to the right side of the three-second zone.
Odom hurriedly changed his guard, but it was too late to go around, so he could only stand behind him.
At the same time, Dujon in the bottom corner also began to move towards the line, and Hinrich at the top of the arc hurriedly passed the ball through.
With such a combination, the Bulls once again got the opportunity to pass the ball to Eddie Curry.
The tactics were well designed and the coordination was smooth, but when it came to the last step, Du Hong hesitated when he wanted to pass the ball inside.
Because Lu Xiaofeng did not stick it up, nor did he give up defense, but took a step away from Du Hong, lowered his center of gravity, and looked at him with fierce eyes.
Thinking of the pictures of Lu Xiaofeng jumping directly and breaking the ball seen in the video, Du Hong glanced at Eddie Curry who reached out for the ball, and did not dare to pass the ball directly.
Looking at Lu Xiaofeng's posture, he didn't dare to attack the earth.
He knew that Lu Xiaofeng's reaction and movements were very fast, and he was not confident that he would be able to evade Lu Xiaofeng's interception.
So Du Hong made a fake action of shooting directly, but Lu Xiaofeng was not moved at all, and still maintained the action of bending over and bowing his legs.
When Du Hong saw it, he really didn't dare to shoot directly, because he remembered those pictures of Lu Xiaofeng jumping high and blocking three-point shots in his mind.
Lu Xiaofeng's average number of blocks per game is more than two, more than many centers, and Du Hong, who is a head shorter, is weak in the face of Lu Xiaofeng, who is eyeing him.
"Ball!"
Eddie Curry was a little anxious and shouted loudly.
Thinking of the tactics arranged by the coach, Du Hong panicked, and as soon as his heart was crossed, he passed the ball high into it.
Sure enough, as he expected, as soon as the basketball left his hand, Lu Xiaofeng jumped up like he was stepping on a spring under his feet, and stretched out his hand to intercept it.
Watching the basketball pass through Lu Xiaofeng's fingertips and not being stopped, Du Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he deliberately passed it a little higher.
But the next moment, Du Hong was depressed again.
Because, his pass was indeed high enough to successfully avoid Lu Xiaofeng's interception, but it also made Eddie Curry have to jump hard to stop the basketball and not let it fly directly out of the bottom line.
But the ball was passed too high, and although Eddie Curry touched the basketball, he didn't catch the ball at the first time, which gave Odom a chance behind him.
Odom slapped from behind, and the basketball was out of Eddie Curry's grasp and flew again.
Eddie Curry took the lead in the basketball again with his height advantage, but before he could get it right, he was slapped and cut by Odom.
The basketball fell to the ground, Odom and Eddie Curry hurriedly bent down to pick it up, and the two touched the basketball almost at the same time, but neither of them could grab it, and the basketball rolled out from under Eddie Curry's crotch.
The two of them wanted to grab it again, but they had no chance, because Lu Xiaofeng also joined in, his eyes were quick, and as soon as he picked up the basketball, he rushed up and went straight to the frontcourt.
"Beep!"
Xin Li used the price of a foul to stop Lu Xiaofeng.
Skels's new tactic failed again.
The Lakers, who lost the opportunity to break quickly, honestly started a positional battle again.
It was still Lu Xiaofeng and Odom, or the blocking and dismantling cooperation, Duhong and Davis chose to attack.
This time, Hinrich didn't get distracted, and Butler didn't have a chance.
Lu Xiaofeng dribbled back, but immediately passed the ball to Odom.
As soon as Odom got the ball, he went straight to the three-second zone, Eddie Curry hesitated and didn't make up for it, but Rohrdeng on the other side quickly made up for it.
Odom dribbled against Rohr Deng and seemed to be about to hit hard, but he raised his hand to pass the ball out.
The unguarded Kobe Bryant had already rushed in and was about to dunk after receiving the ball.
"Beep!"
Rohrdeng's defensive aggressiveness led to a second foul and sent Bryant to the free-throw line.
