Chapter 604: Take the lead in promotion

Chapter 604 was the first to advance

The strength of the Lakers is very strong, this is a very clear thing for everyone, the two players of their team, Kobe Bryant and O'Fat, are players who can easily play 30 points per game, and the other player of the team, Szebiak, is a player who can easily average 20 points per game as long as he has enough opportunities, when a team has such three players, it is impossible for any team to easily beat them, especially for this team, their tactical variability is surprisingly large, They can play the kind of unreasonable star ball, and they can also play the kind of team ball that is extremely fatal, because the star of this team has the strength to switch between different modes. ,!

The crisp defeat in the first two games of this series made the Lakers almost stand at the mouth of all public opinion, although most people are blaming the team's head coach Phil Jackson, but for the team's two leading players, Fat and Kobe, they are also under great pressure, in this case, the team must seek change, of course, Phil Jackson needs to seek change, but there are really not many players he can control in the Lakers, at least he can't control Kobe, Because the Lakers don't like him the most is Kobe, in this case, the Zen master chose to start with Kobe, and finally under the huge pressure from the outside world, Ao Fat, who wanted to compete with Kobe, really agreed to Phil Jackson's persuasion and temporarily put aside his ambition with Kobe. And the direct consequence of this is that in the third game, Po * Vich and the Spurs, who were not a little mentally prepared, were beaten by the Lakers, if the Spurs won 19 points in the second game is a big win, then the third game Lakers at home 110-95 is considered to be back, this game Lakers changed the momentum of the previous two games, this game this team actually played a triangle offense again, of course, this is a triangle offense when Ao Fat has the ball, Kobe Bryant is still in his own style of play, Now it is impossible for him to enter the system of his enemy Ao Fat, in this case, this Laker actually has two modes on the court, one is Kobe-based singles, and the other is Ao Fat's triangle offense, and what is surprising is that this model is really good, because this game is both Kobe's highest 39 points and Ao Fat's standard 21 points, 16 rebounds and 8 assists are extremely good, And more importantly, the Lakers successfully let the team's three-leader Szzerbiak join the game, the first two games only scored a total of 13 points Szzambiak scored 26 points in this game, in this case the Lakers almost directly reversed the situation at home, and the Lakers' 21 assists in this game were actually the sum of the previous two games.

According to the strength of the Lakers, as long as they are willing to seek change, willing to seek cooperation, they can have extremely strong strength, at least the current Spurs are difficult to beat them as easily as the previous two games, of course, of course, according to the strength of the Spurs, in the case that they are not knocked down by accident, they are unlikely to be beaten by a team by more than 15 points in a game, for these two teams, the victory or defeat between them within 5 points is the most normal and reasonable, And the fourth game of these two teams is indeed the case, this game is the portrayal of the most real strength of the two teams, the two teams have been playing extremely anxious in this game, just like the first game, only this time, the Lakers did not appear at the critical moment Kobe Bryant shot wildly outside, on the contrary, the Lakers played quite tactically, in the last five minutes, the team only shot 5 times, and in the last five minutes this team got 11 of the 16 points from the free throw, Among them, Ao Fat is no longer an ornament, the Lakers' big man made a total of four fouls on the Spurs in the last five minutes, including a record 7 of 8 free throws, although the big man made very poor free throws, but the critical moment was reliable, at least he was higher in the last minute than Kobe's 6 free throws 4, and the Spurs on the other side played a little like the Lakers in the first game, which also made the Spurs lose to the Lakers 95-99 on the road, completely losing their 2-0 advantage, After the Lakers tied at home, it was clear that the Spurs had lost their momentum for this series, and it was definitely an extremely unacceptable thing to compare from a 2-0 lead to being equalized

"Coach, Tracy's shooting is improving well now, and now his shooting arc is not so flat"

At the Boston Celtics training ground, Zhuang Fei and his assistant coach Stephen Green and the Boston Celtics players who just returned from Miami are all here, for the playoffs, they can't have a chance to take a vacation after leaving the away game, although the fifth game is May 13, which is the third day after the last game, but whether Zhuang Fei wants to or not, the Celtics players themselves have no intention of resting, these young players are now very hungry, This is especially true of Maddie, who has been furious by the Heat in this series, and the Boston Celtics star has been practicing shooting frantically in recent days, and it is Kirilenko who defends him.

"Yes, the arc is indeed a lot higher and a lot more beautiful, but it's not enough, compared to the most perfect arcs like Kobe Bryant and Szczebiak and Carter, his shooting arc still seems a little flat"

Zhuang Fei also nodded with a smile after listening to the words of the team's assistant coach Stephen Green, Maddie's other skills have improved rapidly in the past two years, whether it is offensive or defensive, but the shooting ability has not increased much, this is not because Maddie has no talent for shooting, on the contrary, his shooting talent is also the top in the league, but after coming to the Boston Celtics, Zhuang Fei has been changing the shooting habits of the team's leader, Maddie's shooting posture was very beautiful before, In a later black saying, it is 'beautiful posture', but because the arc of the ball is too flat after the shot, it is really difficult to compliment the Celtics player's shooting percentage, so the first thing Zhuang Fei did when he came to the Celtics was to change Maddy's shooting problem. But for any player, it is extremely difficult to make them give up the habitual actions that they have practiced for more than ten years, and it took Zhuang Fei 2 years to adjust Maddie's shooting arc, but the results are not big, of course, the success is not big does not mean that there is none, and now Maddie's shooting arc is completely different from before, although it did not reach Zhuang Fei's expectations, after all, Carter and Szzerbiak did better than Maddie when they were in Wake Forest, under these two comparisons, Zhuang Fei's requirements are naturally a lot higher, but fortunately, Maddie, who was abused by the Heat in the first few games of this series, has improved his shooting ability to 90 in the last game, which is already a *-level shooting ability, and it can be regarded as the league's first-class, although it is still a cut below top shooters like Szebiak and Carter, but it is not much worse than Kobe, of course, the same, The Boston Celtics player's shooting arc has naturally improved.

"Yes, however, he still has room for improvement, I think he will catch up soon" Stephen Green said with a smile, everything is a process of accumulation, Maddie has been accumulating for two years, the time is not short, as long as it is thorough, it will soon be able to understand everything, so Green naturally knows that his teacher is actually very happy at this time, but he is still very serious on the surface

The Boston Celtics players are now extremely relaxed, because when the team has led the Heat 3-1, basically the hearts of these players have already been put down, under normal circumstances, the Boston Celtics basically have no possibility of being overturned, in this case, these Boston Celtics players have also begun to train their weaknesses, such as Maddie is crazy to temper his shooting, and Yao Ming is still learning to defend with Xiao Ao, Xiao Ao is following Yao Ming to learn the offensive footsteps of the basket, and it can be said that the current Boston Celtics are not a team in the playoffs now, because this team has no tactical training that the playoffs should have.

13 May 2003, Boston, North Shore Garden Arena.

In the fifth game of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Boston Celtics and the Miami Heat, the Boston Celtics defeated the away Heat 100-89 in almost no bloodless game, and the victory of this game also made the Boston Celtics eliminate the fifth Heat in the East with a score of 4-1 to enter the Eastern Conference Finals, and the Boston Celtics are the fastest of the four teams in the division finals. In addition to the Boston Celtics, several other spots are still in contention.

"Zhuang, congratulations, you still won, I didn't expect that I had been preparing for eight years and finally lost"

After this game, the head coach of the Heat, Pat Riley, also said to Zhuang Fei a little helplessly, in fact, Zhuang Fei can understand Pat Riley's mood at this time, to a certain extent, it is a bit like when he lost to Po * Vicchi, because at that time, Zhuang Fei was also extremely longing for Po * Vicchi.

"Maybe I will have a chance to take revenge this year" At this time, Zhuang Fei's heart was also moved.

It's just that at this time, the Spurs are still frantically fighting with the Lakers.
