Chapter 420 Adventure Success
On the 21st, the Eastern Conference finals hadn't started yet, and the G2 game of the Western Conference finals began.
At the beginning of the game, the Lakers played the god-slaying tactic, that is, the tactic of pulling out the inside.
This symbolizes that Kobe's spring has arrived.
This season, David Robinson was introduced, and the strength of the inside line was overwhelming, which led to a reduction in Kobe's shots and a reduction in his tactical low position. He has been very unhappy.
But in order to cope with Zhao Dong's high efficiency, he also knows that the Lakers have to play more around the basket and low-post offense, so he has no objections.
But it's still not good to be unhappy. Now that he has switched to playing inside and stretching tactics, he will be very happy.
On the first offense, when O'Neal and David Robinson were completely pulled out of the paint, the latter even came out to pick and roll for him, and he rushed in through the wall, causing a foul by Bryan Grant and scoring a two-plus one.
With the success of this tactic, Phil Jackson's confidence also came up, and he began to instruct the field to continue playing this so-called god-killing tactic.
Zhao Dong is too clear about this tactic, and the insiders of later generations are all pulled out to shoot.
This tactic is only a preliminary version, and there is no such thing as unlimited defense.
Taking the opportunity of a free throw, he immediately ran to the sidelines and talked to Larry Bird, and then adjusted his defensive tactics, changing from zone defense to mixed defense, that is, he kept an eye on Kobe, and the others were still in the original zone defense, and the inside line strengthened the defense of the outside line. Break and rebound control.
This time, the tactics of the Blazers and the Lakers are on the same line. The offensive end is opened up inside, and the defensive end is mixed defense.
At this time, Kobe made a free throw and the Blazers attacked.
In terms of breakthrough ability, Zhao Dong may be similar to Kobe in the high position, but as long as he crosses the dotted line of the free throw line, his impact power is not comparable to Kobe. he.
Today, the Lakers also started to play inside and stretch tactics. The offensive tactics on both sides are the same. In this way, whoever has a stronger breakthrough will take advantage of it.
Xiao Ao made a quick serve, Zhao Dong crossed the center line to catch the ball, and went to the basket.
After the Lakers made free throws, the insiders were all behind and did not keep up. Kobe who made the free throw was also behind, and only Ron Harper was in front. How to guard against him?
With a bang, Zhao Dong dunked successfully.
Back on the defensive end, he caught up with Bryant.
Kobe was surprised, didn't he play zone defense?
Now Zhao Dong is closely following him, he is rushing in, he is about to rush in first.
Later, he observed that the other players of the Blazers were not man-to-man, but zone defense, which meant that the Blazers played mixed defense just like the Lakers, and he was targeted by Zhao Dong.
Not to mention breaking through, now that he catches the ball, he has to get rid of Zhao Dong first to have a chance.
"Why are you in a daze, Kobe, you want the ball to hit me." Zhao Dong kindly reminded.
"I know." Kobe glared at Zhao Dong.
After pushing Zhao Dong, he pulled out and reached out to the top of the arc for the ball.
Harper was prepared and the ball came quickly, but just as Kobe received the ball, Zhao Dong defended in front of him again. He was blocked outside the three-point line, and the breakthrough distance was even further.
Zhao Dong directly stuck to Kobe, using his chest to support the opponent, and with just one movement of pulling out the ball, Kobe was forced to turn around to protect the ball.
Kobe turned around and broke through, but Zhao Dong quickly took a step back and blocked Kobe again.
Under his defense, the small-handed Kobe was forced to join the ball, which meant that the ball died in his hands, and he either passed or shot, and there was no chance of a breakthrough.
"here!"
When Harper at the top of the arc retreated outward, he clapped his hands to signal Kobe to pass the ball.
But as soon as Kobe passed it, Eddie Jones just cut into it and broke the ball.
"Beautiful! After Eddie Jones steals the ball, go down quickly, Feilong and Marion follow up on the left and right wings..." The live commentator roared excitedly in the Rose Garden Arena.
Zhao Dong and Kobe ran side by side. At this time, the former made a small movement and secretly reached out and pressed Kobe. The latter froze immediately and fell behind in an instant.
"you?"
Kobe was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
Eddie Jones took the ball to the basket, did not make a strong attack, pulled it to the left, looked at Zhao Dong's position, and immediately threw the ball into the air in front of Zhao Dong.
Zhao Dong flew up directly at the free throw line, caught the ball with one hand in the air, and flew to the basket.
"boom!"
The moment the basket was blown, the rose garden boiled.
"After the wonderful walk in the air, and then the windmill slam dunk, the performance of the flying dragon has officially begun!"
The excited roar of the on-site commentator billowed, leading the boiling home atmosphere.
The Lakers attack again.
This time, the Lakers made a pick-and-roll for Kobe, covering his breakthrough.
David Robinson, who was pulled out, ran to the three-point line to make a wall, and Kobe took the opportunity to rush Zhao Dong.
Zhao Dong did not switch defenses with Xiao Ao, but bypassed the general and chased after Kobe.
Bryant sprinted to the right wing, and Marion from the free-throw line swooped in to form the second line of defense.
Kobe changed direction instantly, and then rushed to Marion.
But his change of direction slowed down the breakthrough speed.
Iron-blooded power forward Bryan Grant is still the starter tonight. When Kobe broke to the right line of the paint zone, he had already returned to the basket.
O'Neal's ability to stretch himself is not enough, he doesn't have much mid-range shots, so Grant's defensive position is still in the paint, very close to the basket, and he returns to the basket very quickly.
Kobe didn't stop, and continued to kill. After attracting the defense of Grant and Zhao Dong who was chasing up, he didn't make a shot, but passed the ball to O'Neal behind Grant.
Zhao Dong stretched out his hand from behind, but couldn't stop Kobe's pass.
"boom!"
O'Neal jumped up from behind Grant, caught the ball with both hands in the air, and smashed forward. Not only did he dunk Grant, but he also dunked Grant directly on the ground and fell to the basket.
The referee also whistled, Grant blocked the foul, and O'Nealga made a free throw.
At the beginning of the game, Grant had made two fouls, Larry Bird immediately changed, and Fortson stepped up.
O'Neal is about to make a free throw, and Zhao Dong tells Fordson and Xiao Ao to prepare for a fast break.
"Oh hoo!"
With a swipe, O'Neill actually hit a hollow free throw, and he screamed strangely with excitement.
At this time, Zhao Dong was about to get off, and Xiao Ao picked up the ball from the basket, and immediately retreated to the bottom line, ready to make a quick shot.
Kobe followed very closely. This is his task on the defensive end, and he must not pull a step.
He was just pressed by Zhao Dong in the Blazers' fast break last round, this time he was careful, while running close to Zhao Dong, he entangled his arms with Zhao Dong's to prevent Zhao Dong from rushing up .
His goal was achieved, Zhao Dong couldn't fully charge, but at this time Xiao Ao's ball was served, Zhao Dong could only turn around to catch the ball, Ron Harper also returned to the defense, and the chance of fast break was gone.
He stabilized the rhythm. It doesn't matter whether the fast break is fast break or not. His goal for this game is still O'Neal.
Only by solving O'Neal, can you win the Lakers. If you don't solve O'Neal, you must rely on opportunities to win the Lakers.
So Larry Bird is still sure about the tactics of this game, let him hit O'Neal.
Zhao Dong went to the frontcourt and found that the Lakers, like the Blazers, were also mixed defenses. Kobe followed him closely, and he was not surprised, because the Lakers played man-to-man and zone defenses in the G1 game, and now they play mixed defenses. Strange, Kobe is the main defense against him, he can also break through, he doesn't even need a pick-and-roll.
Although the Dragon Law restricts his breakthrough ability in high positions, he can still use his tonnage and strength to gain some favorable advantages in the breakthrough.
Kobe was very close, and he suddenly turned around and changed from controlling the ball with his right hand to his left hand, and while turning around, his right hand quietly pressed against Kobe's body.
"This bastard, there are so many tricks!"
Kobe just turned around to follow Zhao Dong, but the latter slapped his abdomen, and immediately lost half a step, watching Zhao Dong rush into the flank.
Out of Kobe, Zhao Dong headed towards the left elbow, ready to rush in from there.
At this time, O'Neal has returned to the basket to defend.
He was facing up against Fortson. Like him, his ability to pull out was not enough, because his shooting ability was not very good, so in fact he was not completely pulled out.
Just like the Lakers' offense, he couldn't completely pull Brian Grant out because of his lack of mid-range shooting ability.
Back to the basket, he watched Zhao Dong step into the paint from the left elbow, and his heart beat faster.
But then he was relieved, because he saw his teammate Fox blocked in front of Zhao Dong in time, preventing Zhao Dong from attacking him.
"Di!"
Zhao Dong stopped for a jump shot, Fox's thug fouled, the referee blew his whistle, and made two free throws.
This is the defensive effect that Phil Jackson wants. David Robinson cannot be a coolie, but Fox, who is faster in defense, can.
And the effect of mixed defense is also good. Although Kobe did not stop Zhao Dong's breakthrough, he also prevented Zhao Dong from reaching the fastest breakthrough speed, buying time for Fox's auxiliary defense and supplementary defense, and this is the tactical effect of joint defense.
Zhao Dong made both free throws, the two sides tied for six, and the Lakers attacked.
Kobe Bryant made a few dashes, this time the Lakers switched to the double-tower tactic at the basket, O'Neal and David Robinson squeezed toward the basket at the same time.
Xiao Ao tried his best to defend against the admiral, and the effect was not bad.
Fortson, on the other hand, carried O'Neal desperately, but was pushed back step by step by the latter, but the effect was also good, preventing O'Neal from quickly entering the basket and wasting his offensive time.
When the ball was passed in, Marion was already in place to assist in the defense, and even Jr. O'Neal also defended it, but O'Neal still got up like a giant beast under heavy siege.
"boom!"
The Blazers still couldn't stop O'Neal's heavy dunk with three clips at the basket, and at the same time the referee's whistle sounded again.
"drink!"
After scoring a goal, O'Neal couldn't help shouting excitedly, the frustration of the last game was swept away, and the morale of the Lakers was also boosted.
Fortson made a thug foul, O'Nealga made a free throw, and he stood on the free throw line.
Zhang Lili reminded in the commentary booth: "The Blazers should be careful. The game has just started, and there were three fouls on the inside, and Grant was beaten down."
Su Qun sighed: "The Shark's lethality under the basket is really too great!"
Zhang Lili shook his head and sighed: "The giant super center with the strongest dominance in history is not so easy to win.
In the last game, the Blazers took advantage of the tactics by surprise. The Lakers will definitely strengthen the protection of the sharks in this game. "
"brush!"
O'Neal got lucky today and made another free throw.
"Yeah..."
After hitting two plus one in a row, the big shark screamed and danced excitedly.
The Blazers' reaction was very simple. Zhao Dong immediately made a fast attack. This time, Kobe failed to defend and successfully played a fast break.
9:8, the Lakers lead by one point, the Lakers have the ball.
This time it was David Robinson's turn to take the shot. Phil Jackson arranged a triangle tactic for him. O'Neal attracted the defense and then distributed the ball to Robinson.
O'Neal was in the low position on the left wing, and the ball was given to him first. After he attracted Marion's double-team, he distributed the ball to Robinson, allowing him to single-play O'Neill.
Jermaine put Robinson on the outside, the latter pulled up suddenly, received a pass from O'Neal, shot a jumper near the basket, and hit a goal.
11:8, the Blazers attacked.
Barkley analyzed at this time: "The Blazers played a mixed defense, and the Dragons were completely taken away by Kobe. They couldn't help defend the paint on the defensive end. The Blazers are now playing quite passively on the defensive end."
Kenny Smith smiled and said: "Two super centers, plus Kobe on the outside, how can it be so easy to defend? In G1, O'Neal fouled too much. This time the Lakers protected him. It will be very difficult for the Dragons to attack O'Neal again." .”
Barkley said with a smile: "Then let's use offense against offense. This is the strongest dragon."
Zhao Dong still wanted to attack O'Neill, but this time he still failed.
He jumped out of Kobe, and then changed direction to dodge Fox's supplementary defense, but at the last moment, Kobe, who was caught up, fouled.
Missed a shot and made two free throws.
"Look, all the Lakers are protecting O'Neal," Smith laughed.
Barkley said solemnly: "O'Neal has scored two plus one twice, he is easier to score at the basket, but now the Dragon can't get close to the basket easily, the Lakers would rather let him make free throws than let him rush in.
Although free throws can also score a lot of points, but in comparison, the damage caused by O'Neal is inside, while the damage caused by Dragon is outside, and the Lakers will take a lot of advantage.
Tactically speaking, the Lakers achieved their tactical goal and protected O'Neal, while the Blazers failed to achieve their tactical goal and did not kill O'Neal. "
Smith smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, the Blazers have plenty of people inside, and the substitutes are all at the main level. The rotation is no problem."
Barkley also shook his head helplessly and laughed, and said: "Then we can only fight the lineup, strengthen the rotation, and see who can handle it. Is it because the Lakers can't handle it outside, or the Blazers can't handle it inside.
In addition, the Lakers slashed the dragons too hard today, while the Blazers slashed the sharks much worse. I think the Blazers will not be polite in the end. "
Smith said: "The Blazers can't count as hacking the Sharks, it's all fouls when the Sharks are attacking, if they really want to hack him, they should chop him when he has no ball.
And the Lakers' foul against Feilong was aimed at fouling, preventing him from having a chance to play two plus one.If Feilong had the chance to play two plus one, with his strength, the Blazers would never lose. "
Barkley nodded and said: "Kenny, you're right. But even if the Blazers didn't cut it, the number of fouls by a few inside players is enough. If they really want to cut it, then the rotation may not be enough."
"That's no problem, you don't need to cut inside, you can go up and cut outside the bench." Smith said.
In this game, in the 10th minute of the final quarter, 108:103, the Blazers trailed by 5 points and the Lakers had the ball.
Zhao Dong made 18 of 10 shots and 35 of 34 free throws. He scored 54 points with a 55.5% shooting rate, far lower than the G1 game.
The Lakers took turns to use fouls to prevent him from breaking through. Kobe had already got 5 fouls on Zhao Dong, Ron Harper had 4 fouls, Fox had 6 fouls, and the other two substitute outsiders also had 4 fouls. Five outside players, A total of 23 fouls were scored on Zhao Dong.
Although he paid a heavy price, he achieved his goal, successfully protected O'Neill and David Robinson, and reduced Zhao Dong's efficiency to a certain extent.
At the same time, O'Neill and David Robinson caused great damage to the Blazers in the interior. Fortson graduated with 6 fouls, Grant graduated with 6 fouls, Davis made 3 fouls, and Jermaine O'Neal made 5 fouls.
奥尼尔21投15中，命中率高达71.4%，21罚12中，已经轰下42分。
大卫罗宾逊也是16投10，6罚5中，轰下25分。
Kobe was less efficient. Today he mainly contained and defended Zhao Dong and only scored 17 points.
With the last 110 seconds left in the game, the Blazers called a timeout.
"Today's game was too fierce. Zhao Dong didn't make a few successful shots in the whole game, and they were all fouled. I really didn't expect the Lakers to dare to play foul tactics on Zhao Dong. They are too courageous!" Su The group said helplessly.
Zhang Lili said: "He took a lot of shots today, more than 30 times, and most of them were fouled."
"Director Zhang, who do you think has the better chance at the end of this match?" Su Qun asked.
Zhang Lili hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Just like the G1 game, the Lakers' tactics succeeded today. O'Neal only committed three fouls. He has an advantage at the basket, and the Lakers have a greater chance of winning the game."
Sure enough, at the last moment, the offense at the basket was more advantageous. The Blazers could not stop O'Neal and David Robinson from attacking at the basket, and lost the home court.
