Chapter 549: Breaking the Formation

readx;

Kobe Bryant wants to keep his strength to attack, and Artest has become the defensive gate behind Kobe, he will not let go of such an attack, seeing Artest rushing over, Zhang Kong just smiled slightly, it seems that Artest seems to be rushing over at the same time, but also blocked the space for Zhang Kong to pass the ball to Maddie, but only Zhang Kong can see the gap under this defense. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Kong's pass 99 was not given for nothing, a very natural ground-hitting pass was used in Zhang Kong's hands.

After the basketball smashed under Artest's step, it quickly rushed towards Maddie, Artest never thought that Zhang Kong would play through the ball in such a fast situation, and subconsciously closed, the ball still passed.

After Maddie received Zhang Kong's pass, he took advantage of the opponent's interior line to prevent it and directly pulled out the jump shot on the outside.

Just opened, Maddie's hand felt good, and the basketball smashed directly into the inside of the basket and catapulted into the basket.

"It's just the beginning, and the players on the Cavaliers' side feel good! It's a great fight! Kenny Smith said loudly as he watched the situation on the court from the commentator's bench, and Barkley next to him just pouted, he had attacked Iverson and Maddie last year, because the two of them could barely play, but they were at the top of the All-Star vote.

So he has a grudge against Maddie, and Zhang Kong, so he doesn't look down on Zhang Kong even more, and Jamison, when Barkley attacked the Cavaliers last year, he didn't say a lot of bad things about Jamison, especially in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, the Cavaliers lost to the Green Army, Jamison vs. Garnett, and the loss was ugly...... The last is Milicic, he doesn't have a good impression of this Serbian big man, the only one he can approve of is Carter, it can be said that among the five pro-Zhang Kong faction of the Cavaliers, only Carter is neutral, and the rest of the people he doesn't like Bakli.

So now watching the Knights fight more and more bravely, he is still a dead duck with a hard mouth, although now he can't say anything bad about Zhang Kong, but keeping silent will be his most powerful weapon against Zhang Kong, just like now, without saying a word!

"Hehe, Charles, let's not make another bet!" Kenny Smith looked at Buckley's non-violent and uncooperative face, and raised his eyebrows, it was not okay to host like this, now all he needed was that Buckley could also speak.

"What bet?" Listening to his partner's words, Charles Barkley turned his head and asked excitedly, it can be seen that there are few NBA players who are not good at this, although they dare not blatantly go to Las Vegas to play, but they never miss a small gamble in private, and the audience in front of the TV is also very interested.

"How about we make a bet on whether the Cavaliers can break the 33-game winning streak held by the Lakers?" Kenny Smith looked at Charles Buckley and said his bet with a grin.

"You can say that it's a break, not a tie, and if they just tie, you lose!"

"Okay, no problem, as for the bet, I fancy your silver sports car!" Kenny Smith looked at Buckley and said with a sly expression, but as soon as he heard Kenny Smith's words, Buckley turned his head again.

"No way, no one will want to touch my baby unless I'm dead!" It is said that the car is a man's second wife, Zhang Kong has no such idea, but it seems that Kenny Smith is very superstitious about such a statement.

"Well, if I win, how about you lend me a day! If I lose, I'll take out my bottle of Louis 13 and we'll both digest it! Kenny Smith seems to be ruthless this time.

When Charles Buckley heard this, he thought about it for a while, and then agreed with a grin, he had been thinking about the bottle of Louis XIII for a long time.

Just as they were betting on the sidelines, the Cavaliers and the Lakers had already opened the pot, not that there was a conflict on the field, but that the scene was very good-looking, the Cavaliers had no way to limit the opponent's interior twin towers, and the other party had no way to limit the Cavaliers' fast break After all, their three lines were outside, and only Artest and Kobe Bryant could keep up with the speed of the Cavaliers.

The remaining two big men and Lao Yu can't keep up with the speed of the Cavaliers, especially Lao Yu, when facing Zhang Kong, he has nothing to do at all, just five minutes into the game, he made two fouls on Zhang Kong's body.

had to go off the break to let Blake defend the gap, and it was even more rare for him to play, and Blake was not as good as Fisher.

Zhang Kong's breakthrough was even more careless, and finally Kobe Bryant came to defend Zhang Kong, but if Kobe came to defend Zhang Kong, then the Cavaliers replaced Carter on the court and let Carter break through the opponent's defense, if Artest came to defend Zhang Kong, then let Maddie break through the opponent's defense, at least in the outside competition, the Cavaliers will definitely not be worse than the Lakers.

At the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers led the Lakers by five points at 32-27 heading into the second quarter.

Phil Jackson's face did not show any uneasiness, for him, the Cavaliers could score 32 points in the first quarter completely unexpected, since watching the Cavaliers and Bulls game, Phil Jackson has been studying the Cavaliers' offensive routines, and in his opinion, the Cavaliers' offensive routines are completely inseparable from their feelings.

In every game of the Cavaliers, their all-shot rate is maintained above 50%, as long as it remains below 50%, then they have very few chances to win, and the key person to improve the shooting rate is Zhang Kong, the Bulls' tactics are very correct.

After cutting off the Cavaliers' outside three-pointers and their mid-range shots, it is impossible for the Cavaliers to break through the score so wide.

But the Bulls forgot one person, so they lost the game, and that person was Zhang Kong, and if it weren't for Zhang Kong's magical performance in the final moments, the Cavaliers would not have won at the hands of the Bulls, at least that's what Phil Jackson thinks.

The current Lakers have a chance to replicate the Bulls' tactics, and the first thing they need is to slow down the pace of the game in the first half, let the Cavaliers shoot completely, and then completely control the situation on the court in the third quarter.

Finally, in the fourth quarter, it was a perfect plan to limit Zhang again when the rest of the Cavaliers were not confident.

At least Phil Jackson thinks so, as long as they limit Zhang Kong in the last quarter, then the Cavaliers will have no threat, think about last year's finals, he almost fell into Zhang Kong's hands, and when Zhang Kong shot at the end, Phil Jackson's palms were sweaty, it was scary, but fortunately, Zhang Kong was stupid at the last moment, and even questioned the referee, even if it finally entered overtime, without Zhang Kong's Pacers, it was not for the Lakers to pinch them flat!

Having said that, in fact, this is just a kind of experiment for Phil Jackson, this is just the regular season, he still has a chance to make mistakes, and he has to find the ability and way to restrain the current Cavaliers through the regular season game.

In the second quarter, the Lakers scored 30 points in a single quarter, and the Cavaliers also scored 30 points in a single quarter.

Of course, this has something to do with the long time that the bench has been on the court, but Zhang Kong and Byron Scott, who are sitting under the bench, both feel that the Lakers want to come up with some demon moths, otherwise, with the Lakers' defensive ability, they will definitely not let the Cavaliers score like this, and there is nothing to say about letting the main players score, because the offensive ability of the main players is indeed strong.

But letting the team's bench score, there's something wrong with that, at least in the face of Zhang Kong, the Lakers definitely have a problem, and at halftime between the Cavaliers and the Lakers, the Cavaliers led the Lakers by five points at 62-57.

"I think there must be some conspiracy on this Lakers!" At halftime, Jamison spoke first, even he saw that something was wrong with the Lakers today, and Maddie and Carter were also sitting next to them, looking at the coach in front of them with a solemn face.

"Needless to say, I can see it, I guess, they want to try the Bulls' tactics against us last time!" Byron Scott stood up, walked to the front of the tactical board, and looked at the Cavaliers players in front of him and said slowly.

When they heard the Bulls' tactics, Maddy, Carter and Jamison were all stunned unconsciously, the Bulls' tactics were really amazing, if it wasn't for the desperate outbreak in the last quarter, the Cavaliers might have lost.

"So, Coach, what are we going to do?" Maddie stood up and looked at Byron Scott and asked attentively.

"In fact, this tactic is really very powerful, knowing that our strongest is the outside attack, but they cut off our outside offensive line, this style of play is indeed very difficult to deal with, but after thinking about it for a long time, I found that this tactic is not perfect, we have other ways to deal with it!" Byron Scott smugly touched his mustache.

It's good to know the other party's tactics, but in fact, he is very unhappy with what he can't do when the Cavaliers fight the Bulls.

When he went back that night, he thought about it for a long time, not to mention that these days really made him think of a good way, and today the Lakers dared to copy the Bulls' tactics again, which gave the Cavaliers a good opportunity to practice!

"Next, Vince, you're going to play the first shot, Vince, Xuxi and Zhang, it's up to you next!" Listening to Byron Scott's words, the Cavaliers players looked at each other and smiled, and stood up, the same tactics made no sense in front of them.

Under the attention of tens of thousands of fans, the second half of the game between the Cavaliers and the Lakers began, and sure enough, as soon as the second half began, the Lakers copied the Bulls' original tactics against the Cavaliers.
