According to Tang Shuai's rotation plan, when he played more than 8 minutes, he should replace Lu Xiaofeng and Butler to rest, just waiting for the dead ball on the court. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But the situation on the court disrupted Tang Shuai's arrangement, and the strategy of playing against the Sun with the strongest offensive lineup went bankrupt.

Odom, who could have ended the offense with a simple hand-to-hand layup, may have been hilarious, and he wanted to have a face dunk when he faced Xiao Si.

But he clearly underestimated Xiao Si's explosiveness.

Xiao Si's defense is very average, firstly, because he plays center forward with a height of two meters and eight, and the defensive end is already at a loss, as long as the opponent resists him and does not let him jump, he has nothing to do, which is also the reason why he is deflated every time he meets Yao Ming; Second, he is the team's top scorer, and his scoring methods are basically impact the basket and dunk and layup, and all his energy is used on the offensive end, and it is inevitable that he will be slack on defense.

But his physical talent is really outstanding, and his reaction speed and explosiveness are among the best in the NBA.

Therefore, fans can often see Xiao Si's wonderful blocks in highlights such as "Five Best Balls" and "Top Ten Goals".

I'm not very familiar with the NBA, at first glance, I'm afraid I thought Xiao Si was a defensive giant, but in fact, he is not.

But Odom wanted to challenge what Xiao Si was best at, and of course it became a tragedy.

Being in the air and looking like he was about to be bullished, Odom subconsciously made the move of pushing Xiao Si away with his right hand, which was of course an offensive foul.

He listened to Lu Xiaofeng's words and stayed on the defensive end, for fear of getting into foul trouble, but he couldn't prevent it in the end.

Who would have thought that the defense doesn't foul, but the offense does?

Odom grabbed the ball with both hands and smacked his forehead a few times in frustration, still walking to the Lakers bench.

There was no way, Tang Shuai simply changed three people at once.

Odom, who had committed two fouls, must have gone down to rest for a while, and replaced Grant.

In order to appease Kobe, Tang Shuai also intended to shorten Lu Xiaofeng's playing time, not to mention that it has not yet reached the point of exhaustion, so Lu Xiaofeng's rotation must also be carried out as planned, and it will be Atkins who will be replaced.

Replaced Jones with Cook, hoping that his height of a few centimeters would make a difference!

And Butler, who had already made two three-pointers, Tang Shuai stayed on the court.

On the Suns' side, they really left Xiao Si on the court and replaced Nash.

However, in the last two minutes of the first quarter, the two teams were still evenly matched.

Odom and Lu Xiaofeng, the Lakers' rebounding masters, are both sitting on the bench, and the Lakers' interior line is tight.

Although the Suns' offense was a bit chaotic and the success rate was not high after Nash went down, Smalls grabbed backcourt rebounds on the heads of Grant and Cook in a row.

Anyway, the Lakers just couldn't prevent the Suns' offense, even if they finally waited for a shot and couldn't score, but the opponent took the frontcourt rebound.

On the Lakers' side, of course, it depends on Kobe.

His idea is simple, since I can't defend it, then I'll get revenge on the offensive end.

He didn't care about any tactics anymore, and with a wave of his hand, he let his teammates pull away and hit them in a row.

Therefore, the sad Ah Q also followed in the footsteps of Odom, and went down to sit on the bench after two crimes.

The Suns began to wrap up Kobe, but Atkins and Butler made three more points in quick succession.

The game is like that, you don't know until you win or lose.

The advantage on paper does not necessarily mean the advantage in the score, and many times, it is often impossible to score.

On the Lakers' side, because of Odom's two fouls, they obviously fell into the disadvantage, but there was only one basketball, and when Kobe Bryant stepped up to dominate the offensive end, the Suns couldn't take the lead for a while.

This is the role of star players, and within a certain period of time, their explosion can be both a relief and a icing on the cake.

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 36:37, and the Lakers still led by one point.

But as soon as the second quarter came up, the Lakers fell into passivity.

Odom can't play for the time being, Kobe Bryant and Butler are going down to rest again, and the Lakers' lineup is Lu Xiaofeng with Atkins, Jones, Cook and Grant.

The Suns, on the other hand, are Nash, Joe Johnson, Jacobson, Marion and Hunter.

Lu Xiaofeng played the position of scoring guard, and the one who defended him was Jacobson, a 1.98-meter guard, with three points on the offensive end and average defense.

In fact, in the Suns, except for Marion, everyone else's defense is not good.

On the first offense, Lu Xiaofeng used Cook's cover to easily run out of the open space, and Atkins passed.

Lu Xiaofeng received the ball, and Marion made up for it.

After Lu Xiaofeng made a false move, he accelerated into the inside line, and Hunter had to make up for the defense, so he missed Grant.

Grant received a pass from Lu Xiaofeng and immediately made a layup, but was fouled by Marion.

Grant made one of two free throws.

With Lu Xiaofeng on the floor, the Lakers' offense doesn't seem to have any problems.

But back on the defensive end, it was completely beaten into a sieve.

Marion went up to play Nash on the pick-and-roll, Cook and Atkins switched guards, and then Nash burst in with ease.

When Grant was making up for the defense, Nash and Hunter came to an aerial relay dunk.

In the last round, Lu Xiaofeng also wanted to have an empty catch with Grant, but Grant's old arms and legs couldn't jump up at all, and his simple layups were ruined by fouls.

The Suns' defensive focus is on Lu Xiaofeng.

It's not that Lu Xiaofeng can't play strongly, but when he sees his teammates have opportunities, he always can't help but pass the ball.

Believing in teammates and sharing basketball is his basketball philosophy.

He always believes that only by getting his teammates more involved in the attack can their enthusiasm for the game be maintained and they can be more motivated.

What's more, it's only the second quarter, it's still early, and he has patience.

But tonight, the teammates were really a bit of a pit and didn't shoot in consecutive open spots.

On the Suns' side, almost every goal must be scored.

The only goal that was not scored was Nash's three-pointer at the top of the arc, but it was grabbed in front of Grant by the aggressive Hunter and slapped the basketball out, Nash organized the offense again, and Joe Johnson hit the inside, causing Cook to foul and play a two-and-one.

In less than three minutes of the second quarter, the Suns scored 12 points, while the Lakers fell into a scoring drought, and only scored 1 point, which was the one scored by Grant.

The score came to 48:38, and the difference in score reached double digits, Tang Shuai couldn't sit still when he saw it, and decisively called a timeout.

"Xiaofeng, you have to take the initiative, shoot when you have the opportunity, don't hesitate!"

"Kobe, Cuarón, you guys go up, Cuaron goes to defend Marion."

In the live broadcast screen, Yu Jia chatted with Director Zhang again:

"In the second quarter, the Lakers were beaten 12-1 by the Suns, Director Zhang, what do you think went wrong with the Lakers?"

"I think Xiaofeng is a little too reasonable, sometimes, teammates are not in good shape, as a leader, you have to be alone when you should be alone!"

"Then do you think that when the pause comes back, Laughing Wind will step up the individual attack?"

......

After the pause, Tang Shuai changed to a lineup of one big and four small, one is Grant, and the fourth is Butler, Kobe, Lu Xiaofeng and Atkins.

Odom had enough rest, but he had two fouls and would have to wait a while before he could play.

Jones, who Tang Shuai had high hopes for, played for more than ten minutes, 1 of 4 three-pointers, Tang Shuai didn't dare to use it, and although Atkins was short, he could be used as a pitcher.
