Chapter 219: Bloody Battle Lakers 2
"The Knicks are a big test in this game, and now that the season is more than halfway through, it's like a school midterm exam, then the All-Star, then the second half of the semester, and finally the final exam."
"Don't really say it, there is a little awareness, the Lakers are a litmus test, there have been teams like the Pistons and Mavericks in front, and various tests have been conducted, and now the Lakers are an existing exam for the Knicks, not to say that it is a midterm exam, after all, the situation of the Lakers this year is also unpredictable, but a strong team like the Lakers is a hurdle for the Knicks, and in all competitions, the traditional strong teams still have a great ability to test the Knicks."
"Now the two sides have just begun, and the next game will depend on whether the Knicks can wait for the test of the big sharks on the inside, and the Knicks have always been a weak one on the inside, at least when they are on a strong team."
"Yes, the Knicks are weak on the inside right now, let's see if the outside makes up for the weaknesses of the Knicks."
The court Wutai analyzes the current situation of the Knicks, there is some uncertainty, but from the outside, the Lakers' Kobe Bryant is really not dominant against the Knicks's three outside lines, it depends on who plays a stronger role in the final battle, after the Lakers won three championships, the current state can be said to be not optimistic, the Mavericks, Pistons, Spurs, Nets, these teams can all press the Lakers to death, the Lakers can only be said to have entered a turning point now,
Xiaoyu's organizational ability and scoring ability on the court are not excellent, but, whether it is the Lakers' senior management or teammates, they definitely trust Xiaoyu, and this trust is definitely not only from his skills, but more often from his personal charm.
As far as Fox is concerned, as a swingman at the front, the opponent is still more than capable of the maniac, and when the Lakers got three championship rings, Fox can be said to be the Lakers' third star in addition to Kobe and O'Neal. Can this season average 9 points and 4.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game, with curly hair and a full beard, but the object of many beauties, the objects of their dating are famous beauties in the United States, but this guy has been with the Lakers for seven years, in the previous life 04 years, the Lakers unloaded the donkey, kicked away the hero who played for the Lakers dynasty, plus he has been plagued by injuries, and announced his retirement after the Lakers trade, and later, it is even more ridiculous that he can only rely on shooting restricted films to survive, I don't know if it is his tragedy or his blessing,
Fox holds the ball to carry out a strong attack, and wants to rely on his own skills to carry out the maniac to pass, but if this trick is replaced by Kobe, it may be effective, but Fox can't be compared with it, the madman uses his body to cling to Fox, preventing the opponent from entering the inside line, and has broken through many times to no avail, so he has to give up helplessly, for a guy who sticks to the ball, others are intolerable, not to mention that the Lakers also have characters like Big Shark and Peter Pan, But Fox is a smart character who immediately sends the ball to the inside.
After the big shark caught the ball, he was not polite to the Knicks' inside line, although Thomas and Harrington raised their hands on the shark's head, but the shark didn't eat this set, holding the ball with both hands, the body bent slightly, left and right, relying on the body, the Knicks' paint area immediately became a no-man's land, Thomas and Harrington's hands that were originally on the shark's head are now gone, as if when the rocket lifts off, the skylight is all opened, and the shark bounces up and smashes the balloon into the basket, I saw the rebounds and hoops constantly shaking, and I really had to sigh at the strength of this guy,
After the shark succeeded, Thomas on the inside could only watch the other party run back, and he could only spread his hands to his teammates, as if to say, I've worked hard, but who called this guy a perverted power, I can't blame Thomas, even a player like him has no way, let alone Harrington in the center position, Harrington has no way to deal with the big shark,
On the Knicks' side, Easley gave the ball to Thomas on the inside, and the Knicks still took a steady and steady approach, although the opponent's interior line has a large-tonnage player like the shark, but it is impossible for the interior line not to participate in the offense and defense, as Thomas who plays the forward position and Harrington who plays the center position, the two have discussed, and now despite the situation, there is no need to carry out a strong attack on the inside, such a low-post single is left to Thomas, after all, Thomas's low-post singles ability still needs to be highlighted, Harrington is more than three seconds outside the zone, so that the big shark has scruples, Harrington's mid-range shot is still very accurate,
Defending Thomas is Robert Horry, speaking of Horry's words, many people are definitely familiar with it, although Horry is not a top star, but the achievements and evaluations he has received are absolutely unattainable in the league, in his previous life, until retirement, in his career, he got 7 championship rings, which many people don't get, even if a superstar like Bill Russell has eleven rings, but Horry's 7 can't be obtained by ordinary people, even if it's O'Neal, A top star like Kobe Bryant doesn't get as much as Horry,
Since entering the league in 1992, he first followed the big dream Olajuwon to get two rings, and after arriving at the Lakers, he got three rings with the help of the big sharks, left the Lakers and switched to the Spurs, and brought two more, which is to be lucky or strong, perhaps it is the combination of both that has led to such a result, because Horry is evaluated as the greatest role player since the NBA, and is also known as Mr. Playoff or Mr. June, which shows that he has skill and luck,
On the offensive end, Horry faced the basket when he was young and mainly focused on pull-up jumpers and breakthroughs, and later gradually became famous for his three-point shooting, and has always held the record for the total number of three-point hits in the playoffs, and also has strong strength in steals, holding the single-game steal record in the playoffs,
The two sides have their own advantages in offense and defense, not only in the forced competition on the inside line, but on the outside line, the Knicks also want to completely hit the Lakers, but three minutes have passed in the first quarter of the game, the two sides are still stalemate, five minutes have passed or the score can't be opened, on the inside line, Lakers head coach Phil Jackson directly let the big shark squat on the inside line, Horry mobility is released, and the Lakers have an advantage, but here in the Knicks, the outside Knicks are far better than Kobe Bryant, who is a person, on the point guard, The Knicks and Lakers are on par,
Whether it's the Knicks' current outside or inside, the head coach of the Lakers is really not in a hurry, Phil Jackson is really a great head coach in the history of the NBA, and he is very calm, even if the Lakers are very bad, but they just don't call a timeout, this is the previous life, Liang Xiao's impression of Phil Jackson depends on the player's own adjustment, or calls a timeout to change when there is an accident,
Speaking of Phil Jackson, some people will compare him to Cardinal Auerbach of the Celtics, in his previous life, he was born in the Knicks when he was a player, and won the championship in the Knicks, which is the only championship in the history of the Knicks, and later got the championship ring as the head coach of the two teams, and before leaving the Lakers in the previous life, he got a total of 13 championship rings, becoming the person who got the most championship rings in NBA history, Whether in comparison with Auerbach or in comparison with others, the only honor shows that he is great in the history of the NBA.
Seeing that the Lakers did not open the situation, Phil Jackson did not mean to call a timeout at all, for the Lakers' team record this season, as the head coach of Jackson, there is not much to make a fuss about, there may be a strong heart in the heart, the Lakers have the ring of the dynasty, the road to the future and the current road, it is not worth worrying about at all, even if the voice of the outside world is loud, this cannot affect himself, in his previous life, he left Liang Xiao with such an impression after O'Neal's eastward journey,
However, Phil Jackson is not in a hurry does not mean that the Knicks' Van Gundy is not in a hurry, the two really can't be compared, whether it is in the coaching time, or in the big scene experienced, Van Gundy is completely behind Phil Jackson more than a notch, Van Gundy kept shouting on the sidelines of the Knicks players, and the tactical command was not as free and easy as Phil Jackson, only to see Van Gundy's shout and Phil Jackson's two little fingers at the corner of the whistle formed a strong contrast, but the effect was not different,
Liang Xiao saw Van Gundy's impatience, and at this time thought that he was going to play soon, and now he has been on the bench for nearly half a quarter, which is not a good idea for a strong team like the Lakers, but fortunately, Easley's performance is good enough tonight, and now Houston has not rested, Liang Xiao is also happy to watch the game off the court, cheering for his teammates, with such a quiet heart, he seems to be much calmer in many things,
Finally waited for a dead ball opportunity, there were 5 minutes and 47 seconds left in the first quarter of the game, Van Gundy was impatient to ask Liang Xiao to play, since the beginning of this season, Liang Xiao has never met the shark and O'Neal, in the past, many stars have encountered it in front of him, and now it is a new opportunity, and the flame burning in his heart is also raging,
