Chapter 247: The semi-finals of the 03-04 season

When Kobe Bryant got this result, he would not be conceited at this time to think that the origin of this result was only because O'Neal was affected by injury, just because Fox was not in good shape, and it was affected by injury, and he would not really think that as long as all the players of the Lakers team were collectively healthy, he could get the victory he deserved.

There is no successful player who doesn't review, doesn't see what he is lacking in, doesn't know what he really needs.

When Bryant removed some of his trust from O'Neal and put some of his responsibility on his teammates, the effect of the team's performance was very surprising to Kobe, and it turned out that his own scoring could also become very easy.

This is completely different from the original triangle offense requirements, because when O'Neal is the core of the triangle offense, he basically does everything he can do, and when he can score, he will never pass the ball, and he can pass the ball when he sees a good opportunity...... This also means that once the individual ability of the players declines and the deterrent effect is not obvious, there will be certain problems in the rotation of the triangle attack.

Kobe Bryant did not want to replace O'Neal at this time and become the only core point of the Lakers, not because Kobe was not confident, but because O'Neal's current status in the team.

Payton came to the team because O'Neal came, and Wang Zhizhi came to the team because he replaced O'Neal for a period of time, because Wang Zhizhi can replace Horry to a certain extent, and at the same time, he can also serve as a backup center in the team.

You must know that before Wang Zhizhi came, there was no center player above two meters in the Lakers' bench. From this point you know the confidence of the Lakers.

Fisher had the best relationship with Kobe though. But that's still the same question. Fisher's offense is to rely on O'Neal's pull, otherwise Fisher's one-man ability is not enough to form too good individual offensive opportunities.

Everything the Lakers built around O'Neal was built, which is an important reason why Kobe Bryant couldn't immediately compete for the core position.

Then Kobe Bryant will not think about the future at this time, winning the championship, winning the championship that should be the Lakers is what Kobe Bryant wants to do most at this time.

So Phil? After Jackson found out that Kobe Bryant was extremely mature, he immediately changed some things, such as letting O'Neal get more rest in the game, and letting the team's bench rotation be more on Kobe Bryant. Let Kobe Bryant play tactical coordination and offense with Wang Zhizhi and other players.

It's just that the effect of this is not as good as Phil imagined, because everyone knows that Kobe doesn't know how to pass the ball, as long as Kobe is given the point of victory, Kobe will inevitably choose to shoot directly.

So the Zen master continued to take half of the responsibility of the main organization away from Kobe, let Fisher organize in the main force, and let Payton organize in the bench, increase Kobe's playing time and shooting moments, and open up enough distance for Kobe to play...... The Lakers won directly over the Mavericks in the first round.

And then in the second round, according to this method, let all the people be committed. The defense is better, and the offensive rotation is not just on O'Neal and Kobe.

The Lakers, who are fully involved, have really become extremely tough. After concentrating on getting the win they deserved, the strength of the Lakers was also evident at this time.

So the Timberwolves can't help but become another test field for the Lakers, a test field for the Lakers' collective sense of honor.

The Lakers are developing on a good side, and the Pacers are also in the game, constantly crushing the young Heat, but Popovich can only fight!

The Spurs are facing all kinds of troubles this year are practically no less than the Lakers, first of all, Duncan was injured in a game in the regular season, and Duncan only played 68 regular season games this year, which is really a rare thing for Iron Duncan, you must know that in the past six years, even in the three years of his rookie season, Duncan has not missed a regular season game.

After Duncan was injured, and the chase behind him was too bad, Popovich just thought about it, and no longer took the initiative to ask the team to get the first place in the regular season, let Duncan have a good rest, and let the Spurs come to a strong playoff spot!

It's just that the second point is even more troublesome, the young players are ambitious, and the old players don't have the desire to win the championship. Malik? Rose, Kevin? Willis and Ward all fall into this category, Ron? Moel was also reimbursed for the injury season, which means a contract of more than 10 million for the Spurs, which has not been used at all this year, which has too much impact on the Spurs.

Fortunately, the good thing is that the players who replaced Jackson, such as Turkoglou, Manu, and Parker, performed very well, at least the Spurs played a role in signing these players, but Nesterovich, who signed the largest contract last summer and replaced Robinson, Popovich expressed some disappointment!

As a player from Europe, he doesn't have any stable shooting ability, he can't pull the defensive distance for Duncan, his movement speed is not top, he can only be regarded as a blue-collar player in essence, and the most upsetting thing for Popovich is that the big man from Europe even shoots free throws, and your sister is like a contemporaneous center in the United States to learn, and even a fifty percent shooting rate has not arrived.

Fortunately, the body is relatively healthy, and he played 82 regular season games.

Popovich said in his heart, "Your sister, I was also deceived by the players who broke out during the contract period, and I was able to achieve 11+7 results next to Garnett, why did I suddenly return to 8+6 when I arrived at the Spurs?" ”

So in this series with the Kings, the Spurs can only fight every game, and it is impossible to give up any game.

It's just that when the old man watched the games of the Knicks, Pacers, and Lakers, he couldn't help but feel a fear of losing to defend the title.

Of course, Duncan's performance on the inside line after gaining weight is extremely terrifying, don't think that Duncan will always have such an expression, known as the Stone Buddha, Duncan's ruthlessness in the game back then is definitely not weaker than any player in this league.

In this league, the average number of years that all players play together is about six years, which means that those who have played in the league for ten years are even the kind of players who are very successful in this league, and the players whose names can be remembered by fans, more often it is that the rookie has passed for four years, signed a big contract of about six years, and then it is the retirement stage of the average player.

A player can only succeed in the league if he maintains self-discipline, keeps his body healthy, maintains effective training, and finds a way to survive in the league, or find an unsolvable offense in the league.

Self-discipline is not something that ordinary people can simply do, this is a purple and gold dream drunken alliance, an alliance of millionaires, and all the temptations from the outside world are too attractive and too great for everyone in this alliance!

Coupled with the strong pressure in the game, the players get along with each other, compare, or make various inexplicable actions that they are very unwilling to make.

Injuries are a common occurrence for everyone in this league, how to overcome the pain, how to play well in the face of injury, that is a problem that a famous player has to face all the time.

Bear these and get what you want, that is to pay ordinary people can not imagine the effort to get, and this is a masochistic exercise, competition, how can it be done by psychological adjustment alone?

Duncan, who has been aggravated, can crush almost any defense of the Kings, but the Kings don't need too much offense on the inside, or the offense on the inside is just a deterrent, as long as the Kings have two outside lines, Bibby and the armor perform well, and they can completely defeat this Spurs.

And so the collision of offense and defense began.

And the second game between the Pistons and the Knicks also began. The Pistons' main lineup in this game has not changed in the slightest, but it can be seen from the defense of the first round that the Pistons' defensive style has changed.

Chauncey faced Hill, Hamilton or Ray Allen, while Prince was the one who defended the bow.

Mir saw that there was something wrong with Gong Feng's face in the first round!

It was a look of extreme anger when he was underestimated!

PS. I'm sorry, but yesterday's chapter was repeated! Hopefully it will be transferred soon. In addition, I forgot to watch the game, if I didn't watch this game, it was really a pity, whether it was a fan or not, as long as I liked basketball. (To be continued.) )
