Phil soon discovered that not only was the starting lineup overwhelmed, but the substitutes also had a tendency to be unable to do anything against the opposition. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info In fact, McMillan doesn't have any decent cards in his hand, especially the substitute on the wing, so he put Blake and Rodriguez in the backfield, and sent Ade and Oden on the inside, which is no problem, and it is also in Phil's expectations, but on the third position, McMillan has another incomprehensible substitution, and he is on Frye......

Except for the Trail Blazers players, everyone's faces are black to the bottom of the pot, this is just after playing the small lineup and starting to play the big lineup, Frye can be regarded as a forward, but this is a 2.11 meter forward, and it also has a three-point range, are the Trail Blazers going to execute the shot to the end? In fact, this is McMillan's idea, the Trail Blazers' bench lineup is a combination of four pitchers and a center, Ade can certainly be used as a pitcher, but a mid-range shooter, Blake, Rodriguez and Frye can definitely reach beyond the three-point line.

Now the Lakers' bench is unlucky, Oden watched Bynum on the inside, the two were entangled under the basket, and the other Trail Blazers players did not hold the ball too much, after all, Blake and Rodriguez's assault ability was only at a medium level, and they were more likely to mobilize the Lakers' defense by constantly transferring the ball, and finally pulled out the gap. Here again, Oden's role has to be mentioned, he is a wedge nailed by the Trail Blazers in the low post, Bynum is tall and strong but difficult to push him, at this time he will quickly pass the ball to teammates on the perimeter in the open space, and brush up on his own assists.

The Trail Blazers' bench players were undoubtedly happy in this game, because McMillan only ordered the starters to fight for rebounds, but did not give the same instructions to the bench players, after all, there is a rebounding machine with Oden, and there is no need for so many people to participate in grabbing rebounds. There are fewer people to grab rebounds, and there are more people to return to defense in time, plus Bynum does not have as good long passing experience as Gasol, and the Lakers didn't even play a fast break when they came on the bench to compete.

Frye played to his height advantage, and Wharton couldn't stop his shots from the outside, didn't even have a chance to block, and he wasn't a physical player in his own right. Frye, who only got one start in 82 regular season games, became the first firepower of the bench lineup, and the three-pointers on 3-of-4 shooting made Phil look pale on the sidelines.

Phil was very unhappy, he was originally a proud person, even arrogant to the point of being a little narcissistic, and being led by the Trail Blazers by double digits was regarded by him as a disgrace for the Lakers, and I don't know if he forgot the Lakers' defeat at home in Game 2. It's a smart old guy, so he quickly found a way to deal with it, and of course he was convinced that it worked, because he switched to Kobe. In the NBA, a lot of times the solution is so simple and crude, just change the star, although sometimes it may not be right, but most of the time it can still change the situation on the court.

McMillan didn't seem to see the Lakers on the court on the 24th, still watching the two teams fight to the death on the court, and from time to time he turned his head to chat with his assistant coach. Kobe Bryant's hand is not good tonight, but he is a stubborn person, and a bad hand is not a reason for him not to shoot, you can think of this as the confidence of a top star, or you can think of it as a fool's behavior, Kobe Bryant is such a person, even if he didn't score the first 10,000 shots, he will still make the 10,001st shot.

But obviously, this kind of crazy iron playing behavior is not very applicable at this time, because the rest of the Lakers players can't guarantee rebounding, and the Trail Blazers' starting lineup is weak, but it also means that the bench lineup has a strong ability to grab rebounds! Kobe Bryant is still playing iron, which is completely conniving at the Trail Blazers to play more offensive rounds, the so-called quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and if there are more offensive rounds, no matter how low the efficiency is, you can get a lot of points, not to mention that now the efficiency of the Trail Blazers is more than one level higher than that of the Lakers.

It has become a luxury to stop the Trail Blazers' rapid advance by substitutions, and the Trail Blazers players have gone completely crazy in this game, and they have done such crazy things as four consecutive three-pointers. They were very touched by what the head coach said before the game, and now is indeed the time to fight against the water, and if they lose, they will basically miss the Western Conference Finals. It is true that it is an honor for them to be able to reach this point as a Young Guard, but if they do not win the championship in the professional league, there is no difference between first and last place.

Phil really wants to send all the defensive players on the team to limit the hot hand of the Trail Blazers players, but he can only think about it, there is no such thing as the tactical survival of the Pistons now, not to mention that the Lakers themselves are not a team that is good at defense, they prefer and longer offense, but this time their offense did not meet the expected level, but let the Trail Blazers tear a huge hole in their bodies. The bench lineup is barely flat, and all of the Lakers' players are almost constantly running back and forth after starting the game, and veterans like Fisher can't stand it after a few rounds, as do the interior players.

Only the Trail Blazers' players are still running around the court, and age and height have become their biggest advantage at this moment, and the kind that the Lakers can't match. The only ones who can keep up with them are Ariza and Kobe, the former is also young and energetic, and the latter is purely trying to win the game. But the efforts of two people can't compete with the whole team, and Kobe Bryant can't even return to the state of 81 points.

The victory in this game came a little inexplicably, it looked like McMillan slapped his head and put on a strange lineup, and then kept running around the court, catching and shooting, and finally broke the Lakers hard. But it was also a natural thing to do, because he saw the hidden strengths of the Trailblazers and made the most of them.

Of course, this tactic is really crazy, especially when he doesn't even want an orthodox interior line, but fortunately, the Lakers' cold touch helps a lot, otherwise a hard battle is inevitable.
