In the first quarter, except for O'Neal, the Lakers did not get off the court, and the other major rotation players all played to get an important factor in the game, and Kobe Bryant recovered his good physical fitness during this time.

And what about the Knicks? Except for the initial substitution of Battier and Jay, Hill, Malone and Yao Ming did not get a minute of rest in the first quarter.

Coupled with the playing time of these three in the second game, many fans are already worried about how much physical fitness can be left of these three absolute cores.

It's just that many people forget one thing, or subconsciously ignore a very important thing, the fact that the Knicks can form the second system is not something that any team can be underestimated, even if the name of this team is Lakers.

After Malone joined, the Knicks in order to adapt to the changes after Malone became a core of the team, plus the reason why the rookie players collectively encountered the rookie wall, of course, is also to go further in the playoffs.

In addition, Gong Feng's playing time has decreased, and Hill's time as the core has been extended, although Gong Feng is a very affected one, but another group of people who rely on Gong Feng as a system have also been affected to varying degrees.

However, this does not mean that these players of the Knicks can't play the offensive mode at that time, in the playoffs, the Knicks' position offense and defense can be described as invincible, so there is nothing that needs to be changed, as for the feelings of the Knicks' fringe players, although Mir will pay attention, but he will not really care.

After all, this is a world-class league composed of successful players, although the high draft has represented a certain amount of capital, but this does not represent the whole thing, let alone the strength that the team needs most urgently. Because Thomas does not meet the overall requirements of the Knicks, the main force of the former iron has become a blue-collar who is now off the bench, not to mention the current defensive ability is not as good as Cott's Bosh.

Bosh is like that, rotation players like Steven Gerrard and Battier are like that, and others don't have to go into details about their specifics, just one sentence can be summarized. Play your best in the game, as long as your performance is really good, you will be eligible to stay on the field.

But that's all in the past, and the Knicks' lineup will change from the moment the Lakers wake up the Knicks in Game 1.

When Gong Feng asked Mir, "Will you trust me?" At that moment, in fact, the second and third matches were already in Mir's planning.

The second quarter of the game has just begun, and Jackson has not found anything wrong with the Knicks lineup, Gong Feng, Ray Allen, Gerrard, Bosh and Cotter are on the court, which is the Knicks' main rotation lineup, and Kobe Bryant led Wang Zhizhi, Fisher, Fox, and Wharton Jr. to the court when Kobe Bryant was the absolute core of the lineup.

Jackson doesn't think such a bench would lose to the Knicks.

Indeed, this set of triangular tactical offense with Kobe Bryant as the absolute core is not so easy to crack this Knicks bench lineup, no matter what, the Lakers' bench players can always open up enough space for Kobe. On top of that, the defensive ability of this lineup can't be considered bad, and the rotation of small men can always be in place quickly, especially in a quarter of the game where Kobe Bryant is fully engaged.

The two sides played very well in the second quarter, and the court looked comparable, but the Lakers could not calmly get the opportunity to overtake, and even Kobe Bryant could only face the help of different positions again and again, and continued to rely on himself to score, which is a difficult scoring method.

Fox is old, and the injury is not enough for him to take on the main task, even in the rotation, Fox is not very fast.

Wharton Jr. is still a rookie this season, and he is also a second-round rookie, although his passing level is very similar to his father's style, and he plays very brainily and intelligently after he enters the court, but poor shooting, thin body and lack of experience do not make him a qualified rotation player now.

Fisher's body is very strong now, but Fisher's speed is beyond his ability, although he can also break through the bow peak to get the points he wants, but it would be too difficult for him to break through one person and maintain efficient scoring under the Knicks' active rotation like Kobe.

Wang Zhizhi's shooting ability, organizational level has risen, self-confidence, and ability have also improved to a high degree, but Wang Zhizhi's physical fitness, speed, and physical fitness do not belong to the range of first-class players.

Defeating a team with a complete system by himself, although Kobe Bryant is very willing to do so, Gerrard's individual defense is not so easy to deal with, and the rotation of the Knicks' lineup is not what Kobe wants to encounter.

Even if the Knicks will play D'Antoni's system, the foundation of this team has been determined many seasons ago, and it is the Knicks' iron-blooded defensive system that Van Gundy inherited from Pakleli.

The first thing Mill did when he took over was to have Van Gundy thoroughly instill all defensive ideas into his players, and the Knicks' five-man rotation system last year was certainly not an accident, or because of Anthony.

Kobe Bryant is comparable to Jordan back then, but the rest of the Lakers' players can't be compared with the Bulls back then, and even a simple version of the Knicks' defense is not easy for anyone to break.

But Jackson was very satisfied to see that Kobe Bryant could lead the bench players to fix the score gap within an acceptable range, and after the eighth minute of the second quarter, when the Knicks just played what they wanted, Ray Allen scored the third three-pointer, and the score gap was stretched to 10 points, Jackson replaced Wang Zhizhi and replaced O'Neal.

Now it's up to the Knicks to deal next!

The moment he saw O'Neal on the field, Mill smiled, until he saw Gong Feng tilting his head and watching Aaron nod to himself, Mill smiled, and he also changed!

Gerrard comes on for Korver.

Korver? Who? This is the point that all Lakers fans want to know the most, and Jackson is very serious looking at Gong Feng constantly moving his hands and feet there, and Jackson seems to think of something, and shouted to Fisher on the court: "Pay attention to the rhythm!" Defensive way six! ”

Jackson guessed correctly, the Knicks are indeed going to play D'Anthony's 'V' type tactics, and it is indeed to let Gong Feng completely take charge, and Allen is to return to his most familiar main identity and take over the responsibility of defending Kobe Bryant from Gerrard's hands.

When O'Neal singled out Kurt after weight loss, after success, Cotter did not care at all, and directly sent the baseline ball and handed it to Gong Feng, and after the Knicks five-man team rushed to the backcourt, they killed the bow peak on the inside line after blocking and dismantling, and passed it to the outside Korver, facing Fox One meter away from him, Korver did not hesitate, and after receiving a comfortable pass, the three-point shot was scored.

"Believe me, when you get on the court, you put ninety percent of your energy on how to shoot threes, defense only needs your attitude, no one expects you to contribute to defense, remember your responsibility, focus your full attention, and show everything you have is enough!"

"After receiving the ball, there must be no hesitation, the first time to see if you can shoot, if not, according to the requirements of the tactics directly pass...... Remember, no one will blame you as long as you don't get a mistake because you hesitate...... One last thing to remember, your scoring is mostly outside the three-point line, you know? ”

Seeing the excited expression of Korver's successful shot, Fisher did not hesitate at all, and began to hold the ball slowly and rhythmically into the half court according to Jackson's instructions.

Kobe Bryant and O'Neal are on the court at the same time, as long as there is a consensus between the two, unless the other three do not have the slightest ability to score three points and two points from a distance, it is impossible for the Knicks to stop the two in one system.
