Chapter 155: Fiasco

Ye Feng's worries soon became a reality, Roy was very strong, but he was deeply caught in the middle of Kobe and Ariza, he only shot three times in the first quarter, and Ade and Oden on the inside were even more miserable, Gasol is an old strength inside after all, he can be inside and out, and the range can even reach the three-point line, plus a young and explosive Bynum, the three-second zone of both sides is almost occupied by them. At this time www.biquge.info Blake and Batum alone can't do anything, they can't attack and attack, and they can't defend against it, McMillan frowned tightly on the sidelines.

This has nothing to do with experience, it is completely crushing in strength, even if the players of the Trail Blazers make up for a large amount of experience in a short period of time, they can't beat it. Strictly speaking, the Trail Blazers are basically inferior at every position except point guards, and can only maintain an even balance at most, and such a performance can be said to take away a victory in the Staples Center. It's clear that the Lakers are aiming for a championship this season, and they will never allow anyone to sabotage their plans, and if they want to achieve this goal, they will have to fight their way out, and no one will be merciful when it comes to winning the game.

Especially Kobe.

He's probably the greatest paranoia since Jordan, and he'll do whatever it takes to win, whether it's his teammates, himself, or even the head coach. As long as he wins, the process is not something he thinks about, so he will yell and shout at his teammates on the pitch, so that they can focus on the game and seriously implement the tactics assigned by the manager. Roy is also a good leader, but he is much worse than Kobe Bryant in this regard, maybe calm and sanity are the most important things for him, but not for Kobe, as long as he can win the game, Kobe can even take dozens of shots in a game without changing his face.

But he shouldn't need to shoot that many times in this game. The Trail Blazers' defensive system soon began to collapse under the Lakers' offense, whether inside or outside, the Lakers players all wanted, except for Fisher and Ariza, the other three were crazy to score, such a defense Kobe's shooting percentage also increased, and the continuous mid-range jumpers made Roy have to discuss with Batum about changing the defense, at least Batum still has the height.

However, when Batum went to defend Kobe, he found that the captain had dug a hole for him. Is Kobe Bryant that easy to defend? As the league's top star, he beats 10,000 ways to score on defenders, how can Batum, a fledgling rookie, be able to take on such an important task? At first, he did want to cause some trouble for Kobe Bryant with his height, but soon he found himself thinking too much, would Kobe, a person who comes and go freely in the low post, be afraid that you use your height to defend him? The back-to-back singles began to make Batum doubt his life, and he didn't know if he was playing outside or inside.

However, Roy had no intention of switching back, he just tried everything to save his energy after switching to Ariza, so that he could make up for the lost points on the offensive end. Defending Ariza is a relatively easy task, and Phil has trained him as a 3-and-D player, just running and then catching and shooting threes when attacking, which is not very difficult to defend. Batum watched Roy running around the court behind Ariza with envy, and then looked at Kobe Bryant, who was hunched in front of him and ready to attack, and cried without tears. Forget it, the younger brother has to have the consciousness of the younger brother, and the boss still carries this pot!

The Trail Blazers fell behind by a large margin from the beginning of the first quarter, and McMillan could only smile bitterly on the sidelines. Thinking of this, he helplessly looked at Ye Feng, who was sitting at the end of the bench, watching the game with a serious face, if this kid was there, the team's tactical system could have some other changes, and now he could only pray that the loss would not be so bad. The same happened at the beginning of the second quarter, when everyone sent out their bench lineups, and McMillan was hit hard by the opponent again.

Outlaw is still good, he is the key to the Trail Blazers' bench lineup scoring, and with Fernandes, a guy who is quite accurate with three points, there is no shortage of offensive firepower on the Trail Blazers' bench. But the Lakers played against them, and the lineup sent by Phil was a bit strange, with three guards and two forwards not to defend against the opponent's offense, but to score more points than the opponent. Famar, Brown, Vujacic, Powell and Odom, this combination caught the Trail Blazers off guard, because it was the highest person who organized the attack, so did we have to put our center all the way to the high post?

Odom has always been known for his versatility, the height of the 2.08 meter forward is a small forward position, but the style of play is more biased towards the backcourt players, whether it is ball control or passing, it has a very good level, the Lakers Megatron League's "three high" combination is him plus Gasol and Bynum, that is the strongest state of the Lakers this season. Phil's use of Ariza to start does not mean that Odom is not in shape, putting this guy in the rotation lineup will play a greater role, after all, Kobe Bryant will not look at your face when starting, and it is the most normal thing to be a transit station in a high position in that situation.

Odom, who led the bench, played to his strengths as soon as he came on the court, using his height and field vision to constantly send delicate passes to his teammates, and Purzbila had to be in a dilemma near the free throw line when encountering such a scene, as for the team's backcourt players? Forget it, expect them to defend against Odom, and it is better to follow the Lakers' players for two more steps. At the end of the first half, the Trail Blazers were basically spent, and it was not that they couldn't catch up with 23 points behind, but they didn't have the spirit to win, even if they had the strength, they would definitely not be able to beat the Lakers, not to mention that their own strength on paper would fall behind.

McMillan's motivation at halftime didn't work at all, and the Lakers' offense and defense were much more terrifying than what he said he said, at least that's what most of the Trail Blazers players thought. In the second half, they still didn't find their desire to win, completely like the walking dead wandering around the court aimlessly, the only one who still had the fighting spirit was Roy, but he alone couldn't beat the Lakers.

Looking at the growing difference on the scoreboard, McMillan shook his head, gave up the last resistance, and waited for the second game!
