216. Wake up
Stoudemire's ability to beat Garnett, Duncan, and Nowitzki to the All-Star Team in the 05-06 season is not just due to his physical fitness. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He is the real means of scoring, except for O'Neal, everyone else relies on dunks to score more than ten points in a game, Howard has relied on three-second zone scoring in recent years, and his average of 20 points per game has been compared with Olajuwon and Abdul-Jabbar, whose interior score is more powerful, and Stoudemire's interior explosiveness is more of a deterrent.
He had a good ability to break through with the ball, and he didn't dare to defend him in the middle distance back then, for fear of breaking through with his back, and what he really killed the opponent was his good mid-to-close-range shooting.
Two years ago, Stoudemire was a super power forward averaging 25 points per game, but injuries not only ruined his knees, but also ruined his confidence.
But today he was holding the anger of washing away the humiliation of the last Lakers with them, and put aside all the injuries and everything, and killed the Lakers first.
Gasol, who was bullied in the 2010 Western Conference Finals, is bullied again today!
Who is the most serious "aristocratic disease" of the Lakers?
It's none other than Gasol, a romantic man from Spain, who looks like you love to shoot when he defends Stoudemire who comes on as a substitute, lazily watching the former little bully hit three consecutive shots in the middle distance.
When Gasol came back to his senses and went up to the defense, Stoudemire had already thrown away, and the angry little bully didn't care about the knee problem at all, and all kinds of skillful steps played Gasol enough, and he also burst to the inside to avoid the Whiteside defense and pull up a violent dunk.
After playing Gasol with confidence, Stoudemire played against Antetokounmpo who came off the bench, as if he was back to his peak overnight, and he scored 19 points in a single quarter after Anthony scored 21 points in the first quarter.
On the offensive end, Anthony and Stoudemire led the team to bombard, and on the defensive end, the Knicks finally found their defense from last season today, and coach Mike Woodson learned the defensive system from Larry Brown, and after getting the trick of defending Kobe Bryant from the Zen master, he caught the flaw that D'Anthony is not good at creating scoring opportunities for super scorers, isolating Kobe Bryant and playing alone, and everyone else's offense is a bag, and only Kobe Bryant has one defense.
Although Bryant calmed down after 1-of-7 and hit a wave of 5-of-7, he alone couldn't compete with the Knicks, who were all mad.
The more difficult Lakers were playing until the end of the half, pointing at Kobe Bryant alone, and seeing the score of 39-61 at halftime, they came to their senses and realized that the situation was not good!
In the Lakers locker room, D'Antoni called everyone together, looking at this group of players with their heads down, D'Antoni thought: You guys are careless, I said that the other party is not good to deal with you and you don't listen.
"Our offense is terrible! In the second half, we must play well in attack! Kobe Bryant, you rest first, and then play in the fourth quarter. D'Antoni has long sensed that something is wrong, the opponent's offense is driven by two stars, the same style of play as they used to play, but the defense is certainly not what Mike Woodson's big bald head came up with!
D'Antoni is well acquainted with Mike Woodson, the two have been assistant coaches on the U.S. national team, and he knows that this big bald head will only have the kind of one-board defense, and he looks like Larry Brown, and this time he suddenly became such an aggressive defense, obviously under someone's guidance.
But D'Antoni really can't think of a way to solve the opponent's defense for a while, he is the kind of coach who relies on the system, if he is given a few days to think, like in the playoffs, he will definitely be able to find a way to break the opponent in the second game, but now it is difficult for him to think, he has never been good at commanding on the spot.
In the spirit of the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, D'Antoni asked Kobe, who was most familiar with the Zen master: "Kobe, I think the defense on the opposite side must be the Zen master playing a ghost behind, do you have any solution?" ”
"I want to ...... The other party must be coming for me, and replacing me is probably the best solution! Replace me with Giannis to control the ball and use Liu's best running position to contain the opponent......" Bryant gave an unexpected answer, and without waiting for D'Antoni to be surprised, he continued: "It would be nice if Drummond could play today, he already got permission to play, didn't he?" ”
Kobe Bryant can say such a thing is obviously beyond D'Antoni's expectations, D'Antoni has not been good at communicating with the players under him, he doesn't know that Kobe Bryant has become less paranoid because of Liu Ren, the successor, and now Kobe Bryant wants to see Liu Ren take on more responsibility and provoke the Lakers before he retires.
But now D'Antoni's concern is that if Kobe Bryant is replaced, will the Lakers still be able to score in the weakest mid-range of the opposing defense? In the first half, Kobe Bryant played 20 minutes, scoring 27 points on 9-of-19 shooting in the half, and alone scored two-thirds of the team's scores! D'Antoni saw that only Kobe Bryant could score consistently, and used him to death like he did last season.
Green, who was wearing a suit behind the bench, began to stir when he heard Bryant's words, but there was no way to do it, D'Antoni was a little too cautious and prepared to let him return for the game on April 2, and he will travel with the team for the rest of the month, but will not play.
"Swap Kobe? Will anyone else be able to score in that way? This game is the first time D'Antoni has encountered such a troublesome situation this season, he couldn't play the Spurs before because he felt that he couldn't play, although he was a little worried before playing the Knicks, but he thought that as long as the players were serious, they would definitely be able to play, but now he has no way to defend the Knicks, so he went back to last season with a good hand of cards and didn't know what to do, just thinking about the way to kill Kobe.
Liu Ren looked at D'Antoni and felt that this coach was actually quite pitiful, from the most fashionable coach in the league ten years ago to a coach who has begun to fall behind now, this kind of change is definitely not easy to accept for a while.
If D'Antoni was one of the pioneers of the small-ball era ten years ago, D'Antoni, who still maintains the same idea as ten years ago, is no longer suitable for this era, and now the small-ball must not only attack, but also be equally strong defensively.
Liu Ren stood up, showed a confident smile, and gave his teammates a boost: "Don't worry, coach, we can definitely win!" You have to believe us, that Mero guy scared me out of the first quarter, and now it's time for us to perform, this is our territory! ”
