Chapter 486 The Lakers' trap, the star's solution
·
Zhuan Zhu
After the substitution, the Lakers' defense obviously went up a notch, but they still couldn't withstand the Sun's fierce offensive. Ganetra hit the iron with a high jumper, and the Sun seized the opportunity to push back.
During the transition between offense and defense, Chen Yan put on a good show, chasing and hitting from outside the three-point line!
15:8.
The Lakers can still slightly limit Chen Yan's three-pointers by quickly switching defenses, but in this fast break, there is no way at all. The Lakers' players have not yet settled down, and Chen Yan has already made a shot. Who can stand it? ?
The Lakers attacked, and this round Kobe no longer covered the bottom line, but participated in the triangle offense.
Kobe held the ball at the top of the arc, Garnett went up to a false screen and immediately went down, and Kobe sent the ball in between.
The attention of the Suns players was attracted by Kobe. Garnett easily entered the penalty area after receiving the ball. Jordan immediately let go of Camby and strode up to make up the defense. He was very active!
Garnett took off against Jordan. If the "Wolf King" had been dunked a few years earlier, but now his explosive power is obviously not as good as that of the young Jordan, but Garnett still has the foundation. After the confrontation, he grabbed the ball with one hand , Leaning back, staying in the air and scoring!
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle sounded at the same time.
and-one!
After Garnett fell to the ground, he made a fist with one hand, and Kobe and James Posey quickly pulled him up from left to right.
Garnett made an extra free throw to help the Lakers chase the score to 11-15.
Sun attack.
James Posey stared at Chen Yan, Kobe Bryant stared at Nash, and the Suns scored almost all of them at the beginning. It can be said that the Lakers' defense is very targeted.
The Suns' offense was also very targeted. Kobe defended against Nash and James Posey defended against Chen Yan, which meant that there was a natural dislocation on the court.
Nash beckoned, and Azubuike, who was squatting in the bottom corner, suddenly became the main attacker.
After Azubuike received the ball, he singled directly to Fisher.
Fisher's heart skipped a beat, what a fucking beep, anyone can shit on their own head?
'Old Fish' pulled his trouser legs, lowered his center of gravity, and concentrated on defending.
Azubuike didn't play fancy games either. He suddenly speeded up after a crotch, and slow lateral movement was the weakness of "Old Fish".
Fisher barely kept up, and Azubuike suddenly pulled up at the elbow after a sudden stop.
Fisher was half a beat slow on defense and watched as Azubuike threw the ball over his head.
"Bang!"
Although he didn't score, Azubuike's chance for the goal came out completely.
'Old Fish' heaved a sigh of relief. It wasn't he who defended his opponent this round, but the rim at the Staples Center.
For Azubuike, the missed shot had nothing to do with Fisher, it was purely because his hands shook when he shot.
Camby grabs the rebound and Kobe dribbles across half court.
Camby and Garnett also mentioned that the line was a cover for Kobe, and the two insiders mentioned that they were on the line, thus pulling out all the inside lines. Kobe used the cover and accelerated to wipe in. The sun's defense quickly recovered. No one wanted Kobe to kill easily. Go to the basket and score.
Kobe made an emergency stop outside the penalty area, and threw the ball to Fisher on the outside with both hands.
Chen Yan reacted quickly, and after slamming on the brakes, he turned around and rushed towards the outside line.
"Shh!"
Unafraid of Chen Yan's interference, Fisher steadily hit a three-pointer from the outside.
15:14.
This is where Fisher's value lies. His outside projection is very stable, with a high arc and is not easy to be disturbed.
At 6 minutes and 11 seconds, Jordan got the second foul of the game and was replaced by Mustache.
The role of Jordan in the first quarter is quite obvious. He protected the defensive rebounds very well and also performed well in protecting the frame. Barnes replaced Jordan and the Suns played the purest running and bombing.
The speed of the Suns is mentioned, and the Lakers are obviously struggling on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, they frequently use their height advantage to play inside the Suns.
At the end of the first quarter, 32 to 29.
Both sides played high scores, and the Suns temporarily led by 3 points.
Mike Breen commented: "The Suns outside duo feel very good. Chen Yan scored 12 points in the first quarter, and Nash scored 10 points. This is the key to their lead."
Van Gundy continued: "But this is also their problem. Compared with the Lakers, the Suns' scoring points are too concentrated. Once Nash or Chen Yan's touch has problems, it will be difficult for them to maintain their advantage."
Facts have proved that the Suns not only rely on Chen Yan and Nash, their second team is also trustworthy.
The biggest difference between the Suns' second lineup and the Lakers is the ball-holding point. On the Sun's side, 'White Chocolate' Williams can hold the ball, Barea can hold the ball, and Grant Hill can also hold the ball. The lineup is much more embarrassing. Shannon Brown and Ariza can be regarded as the core of the ball in this lineup.
This group of teammates themselves are not strong in holding the ball, and Kobe's super offensive ability with the ball has made them develop a bad habit, that is, relying on Kobe's offense, and their task in the round offense is basically empty Cut and squat bottom corners.
Not only is there no ball-holding point, but the organization of the Lakers' second team is also very problematic.
Luke Walton can barely organize, but he is a forward after all, and he can't do many point guard jobs.
The second team of the Lakers can only rely on the whole team if they want to fight against the Suns, but the Suns don’t play them like a whole team. The Suns’ substitute players resolutely implement the 7-second offensive strategy. .
The Suns came off the bench with a 10-2 spurt in the second quarter, forcing the Lakers to bring up the starting lineup early.
This is what D'Antoni would like to see, so that the Lakers' main force will consume their physical strength prematurely, and the Suns will have a greater winning rate in the final battle.
Kobe hit two mid-range shots as soon as he came up. Kobe got angry when he watched these substitutes play off the court, and vented his anger on the Suns as soon as he came on the court.
The momentum just played by the Suns' substitute was suppressed by Kobe alone. This is the super giant aura.
A minute and a half later, the Suns replaced the main force again. Under the leadership of Kobe, the Lakers' offensive was very fierce, and the lead might not be maintained if they did not play the main force.
As soon as Nash came up, he hit a horse-riding archery mid-range shot. Tonight, the Lakers resolutely adopted a defensive strategy for him. The Lakers planned to use the purest defensive strategy so that Nash could only drive the screeners who initiated the pick-and-roll with him, and did not allow him to change defenses. It is necessary to connect weak-side teammates in series, so as to achieve the effect of revitalizing the overall situation.
However, this gave Nash a lot of personal offensive opportunities. As long as there is a misplacement, Nash will fight big and be very determined.
At halftime, Nash's personal score had risen to 19 points, second only to Chen Yan's 21 points and higher than Kobe's.
Nash's offensive state continued until the fourth quarter.
Chen Yan was as strong as ever, and the Suns' backcourt duo firmly suppressed the Lakers with their strong offensive ability.
91 to 80, the Suns entered the final quarter with an 11-point lead.
The Lakers had the right to first attack, and Fisher handed it to Garnett after halftime.
Garnett saw that no one was attacking and decisively played back singles.
Dior lowered his center of gravity to hold on, and stuck off the line to prevent Garnett from turning to the basket. The defensive work was done well, and Garnett could only turn to the outside to connect with a turnaround jumper.
"Bang!"
The moment the iron sounded, Camby jumped up and grabbed the offensive rebound. His rebounding sense and experience were much better than Jordan's.
After Camby got the rebound, he stood up against Jordan and missed. Garnett followed up and made it up!
Finally hit!
91:82.
In this round, the Lakers' inside advantage was fully demonstrated!
The Suns attacked, and Nash called a pick-and-roll after halftime. After the Lakers switched defenses, he misplaced Camby.
Nash had a very high success rate in the first three quarters, but his layup in this round was outrageous.
The excessive shooting in the first three quarters made Nash consume a lot of energy, which directly led to the inability to maintain efficiency in the final military training.
In the next two and a half minutes, Nash missed all three shots. The Lakers took the opportunity to chase the point difference to 5 points, and D'Antoni called a timeout.
"Nash's efficiency began to decline. He is one of the two scoring points that the Suns rely on most. His declining shooting percentage directly led to a sudden increase in Chen's pressure." Mike Breen said.
"For the game mode between Nash and the Suns, the best thing is never that Nash took more than 20 shots and scored crazy points, but it should be that Nash took more than 10 shots but sent more than 15 assists." Van Gundy said.
Mike Breen said: "Steve Nash seems to have fallen into the trap of the Lakers tonight. The Lakers constantly adopt defenses to lure him to attack personally, which consumes his physical energy and prevents him from connecting the ball well. Team, now the problems are exposed.”
After returning from a timeout, the Suns intentionally let Chen Yan take over the offense. Phil Jackson had expected it a long time ago and made a flanking deployment in advance.
Chen Yan held the ball at the top of the arc and launched a pick-and-roll, and Camby directly lost Jordan and James Posey to form a double encirclement.
"boom!"
Chen Yan blew the ball back and took a step and then walked to the right. The two did not force but had a tacit understanding while defending and driving Chen Yan to the line. The closer the distance to the side line, the less space Chen Yan had for making moves, and the cost of the bottom line Scheer also blocked in the next second, and the three of them formed a siege!
This strategy is based on Chen Yan's exaggerated personal ability this season and Nash's decline in touch.
Chen Yan pulled it up very decisively, and threw the ball with a slight drift!
At this time, you must be decisive in handling the ball. If you hesitate to stop the ball, you may be forced to make a mistake.
The three defensive players jumped up at the same time, but they didn't cause too much interference to Chen Yan. Chen Yan's pull was very high, and the arc of the ball was very flat, with almost no spin. It just flew straight into the basket.
98:90.
Chen Yan's three-pointer was like a high-pressure water gun, which directly extinguished the arrogance of the Lakers' counterattack.
Chen Yan proved with his actions that at the critical moment of the strong duel, it is still the star's ability to solve hard problems.
During the transition between offense and defense, Chen Yan put on a good show, chasing and hitting from outside the three-point line!
15:8.
The Lakers can still slightly limit Chen Yan's three-pointers by quickly switching defenses, but in this fast break, there is no way at all. The Lakers' players have not yet settled down, and Chen Yan has already made a shot. Who can stand it? ?
