Chapter 1073 1072. The left-handed magician!
The Hawks didn't let McGrady play Luke Walton on the first attack, which was beyond Zen Master's expectations.
In addition to defending against heavy guards, Fisher can only defend against spot-up shooters most of the time. Originally, Zen Master was prepared to deal with Liu Mang or Tracy McGrady's single-player Luke Walton's flanking defensive strategy, but Liu Mang did not expect Liu Mang to directly pick and roll at a high position.
Yao Ming defends the pick and roll... worse than O'Neal.
The Lakers attack and Fisher advances upcourt and passes the ball to Kobe.
McGrady is in front of Kobe, the two high school superstars are facing each other!
Kobe saw McGrady defending him and waved away Luke Walton who asked for the ball from the high post.
Hitting the Eagles pass?Just do it!
The Zen master put his hands on his thighs, crossed his eight fingers, and circled his thumbs, which was expected.
Seeing this situation, Luke Walton made another gesture, Yao Ming immediately pulled up to the high position, and Fisher ran from the left corner to the right corner.
Kobe moved toward the top arc, Yao Ming led Kwame Brown to the right side of the top arc, Luke Walton led Prince to the left side of the top arc, and the Lakers put up two consecutive pick-and-rolls!
What a tactic!
Liu Mang followed Fisher from the left corner to the right corner, and then to the left corner. Seeing the formation in the high position, didn't Kobe want to play singles just now?
Kobe used the pick-and-roll to move to the left of the top arc, which made the Eagles' defenders really wonder what to do. Is Yao Ming going to really pick and roll, or Luke Walton?
At the same time, Fisher, in the right corner, moves towards the left 45-degree angle.
Liu Mang hurriedly followed, this is a 45-degree three-pointer to hit Fisher!
At this time, Odom came up and blocked the chasing Liu Mang. At this time, because Yao Ming was the first to block, McGrady who was blocked immediately came to defend Fisher. However, Fisher used Odom's pick-and-roll to run to the middle distance at a 45-degree angle. Instead of withdrawing from the 45-degree three-point line, he ran around to the inside.
On the other side, in the second pick-and-roll at the same time, Luke Walton blocked Kwame Brown who was switching on Kobe Bryant and then cut inside, Rasheed Wallace received the basket, Yao Ming moved to the right 45 degrees away from the free throw line and was empty!
Kobe's ball has passed, and Yao Ming catches the ball and makes a mid-range open shot...
hit!
Easy two-pointer hit!
So easy!
With the addition of a point guard who can shoot without sticking to the ball and is willing to run, Yao Ming got a very easy shot, blocked someone, took two steps, and there was an open spot!
Immediate effect!
Liu Mang looked at Kobe back to defense with a smile on his face, this big liar!What about singles!
But the Lakers' tactic is what the hell!
This is a team coordination that Liu Mang has never seen before, but it seems to be a triangle attack.
Liu Mang silently memorized the tactics, received the serve and advanced towards the frontcourt.
Kobe waited for Liu Mang to advance to the frontcourt. Just two or three seconds after Yao Ming made the shot after the pass, he felt that the pass was pretty good.
After Liu Mang came to the frontcourt, he encountered Kobe's defense and couldn't make a breakthrough. He forced his way to the basket with Yao Ming. Liu Mang continued to pick and roll, and Kwame Brown brought Yao Ming out.
However, before Liu Mang could catch Kwame Brown's pick-and-roll, Kobe suddenly pressed up. Liu Mang quickly controlled the ball, but took a step back, away from the three-point line!
Liu Mang watched as Kobe leaned against Kwame Brown, who came to the three-point line, and stood outside the pick-and-roll. Yao Ming was a little behind Kwame Brown, blocking Kwame Brown's air cut.
The pick and roll didn't work!
The Lakers' first ball was hit unexpectedly, but they have long been ready to defend against pick-and-rolls!Since the Eagles used a lot of pick-and-rolls against the Sonics in the last game, Zen Master began to think about how to defend.
This is urgent, but there is a solution.
Liu Mang was more than one meter away from the three-point line. When he saw this situation, he pulled it up and threw it away!
Super long-range three-pointer!
When Liu Mang made a move, there was an exclamation at the scene...
"Bang..."
The Los Angeles basket habitually does not accept being entered, and Liu Mang is determined to make a three-pointer!
Odom protects the defensive rebound and the Lakers attack.
The Hawks retreated quickly, and Rasheed Wallace returned to the defense without rushing for offensive rebounds. The gap between him and Odom in rebounding was vastly different, and Odom was better than him in his rookie season.
After grabbing the defensive rebound, Odom moved forward. Instead of continuing to play the tactics just now, Odom held the ball in the top arc.
Kobe asked for the ball from Odom, but Odom refused and waved Kobe away.
Kobe reluctantly pulled to the low post, brought the defense in, and gave Odom a chance to play singles.
Among the active players, in terms of talent, Kobe only admires two people, one is Tracy McGrady and the other is Lamar Odom.
When Odom wants to play singles, it means that he is serious. Kobe will not interrupt Odom's singles with the ball. It is not easy for this guy to be serious once.
"Ding... The talent skill Absolute Talent triggers, and Lamar Odom enters a state of concentration."
"Ding... Absolutely omnipotent trigger, Lamar Odom can freely switch between the first position and the fifth position."
"Lamar Odom (concentrated state): ability value 95, offense 91, defense 85, three-pointer 81, mid-range shooting 80, layup 91, speed 86, strength 87, rebound 95, ball handling 95, passing 90..."
Hearing this prompt, Liu Mang didn't know if he should say a word or not. The Lakers are too well prepared today. They have different tactics on offense and are well prepared on defense. Even Odom is serious about it!
Liu Mang leaned close to Fisher, looked around on the sidelines, and saw a woman he thought was bloated, and understood why Odom was serious.
Odom's new girlfriend Khloe Kardashian came to watch the game today, and Odom became serious.
Liu Mang is following Fisher in the left corner, Tracy McGrady is fighting Kobe in the low post, Yao Ming pulls to the right baseline to take Kwame Brown in the middle distance, and Luke Walton takes away Prince at a 45-degree angle on the left.
Rasheed Wallace dropped his weight and guarded Odom in the top arc without daring to bat an eye.
Odom, like a point guard, dribbled the ball continuously under the crotch, and the cheers of the fans burst out one after another.
Odom's singles is coming!A [-] meter point guard!
Just when Rasheed Wallace silently cursed Odom's dribble and hit his feet, Odom broke through to the left!
Rasheed - Wallace quickly moved to the right, but Odom, like an outside line, suddenly changed direction and slapped the ball to the left, passing Rasheed - Wallace!
This is really unstoppable!
Rasheed - Wallace has done his best, Odom rushed toward the basket.
Kwame Brown was pulled away by Yao Ming, and he didn't dare to go up to block it. Kobe pulled out towards the middle distance on the left. McGrady saw Odom's height and weight, so he decided to chase Kobe.
Odom enters the free throw line one step away and then leaps high and flies to the basket!
The fans at the scene started cheering after Odom passed Rasheed Wallace, and the serious Odom rushed up, also unstoppable!This is the body of a real [-] meter center forward!Also as fast as a defender!
Just as the fans were cheering wildly, it seemed as if their throats were blocked by a gun, and the cheers stopped abruptly...
Odom was flying in the air, thinking about how to dunk the ball, and then suddenly found that he had flown out of the baseline!Hurry up and pass the ball, just in time for Liu Mang who ran in and was about to receive the serve and counterattack.
"Ding... Habitual mind-wandering trigger, when you play a wonderful moment, you will always be too proud, from Lamar Odom."
Liu Mang was stunned. When he saw Odom jumping up to face the empty basket, he was ready to quickly receive the serve and counterattack. Who knew that just as he ran to the side of the three-second zone, a ball flew towards his face.
Liu Mang caught the ball subconsciously!
He didn't look up just now, thinking that Odom had dunked the ball in and flew out of the baseline, but he didn't expect it to be so!
McGrady was the first to react and quickly moved towards the frontcourt. Liu Mang also reacted immediately and made a long pass!
Liu Mang's pass accuracy is amazing. The pass of the audience just fell into McGrady's hands when McGrady rushed into the free throw line and took a step.
McGrady jumped up to catch the ball, but instead of dunking, he landed first.
Just as McGrady landed, Kobe jumped from behind the free throw line, fanned it out, and missed it!
McGrady got up again, dodged Kobe's chasing block and scored two points with a layup.
Liu Mang received the next assist.
4 to 2, the Eagles still occupy a two-point lead.
Liu Mang didn't know what to say to Odom. One second he was superb, and the next second he could become two.
Kobe picked up the ball speechlessly, and seeing Odom's smirk when he ran back to receive the serve, Kobe really wanted to give this guy an elbow and let him have a taste of the Los Angeles elbow.
Kobe sent the ball to Odom, and Odom continued to advance.
Odom didn’t act stupid this time. He continued to break through and seriously stared at the basket to attack. Odom’s breakthrough was too easy just now. Kwame Brown shrank to the basket this time and rushed towards Odom.
Yao Ming scored 4 points in a row!
This time it was the Eagles' turn to be unexpected!
The spearhead of the Lakers' attack was not Kobe. Kobe didn't even take a shot three times in a row, which doesn't match his average of 26 shots per game, accounting for nearly one-third of the Lakers' shots!
And it's not Yao Ming's singles, it's Luke Walton's command or Odom's offense with the ball!
Like the Hawks, the Lakers' triangle offensive system is also open, and players have the power to decide their own offense on the court.
Before, it was because the point guard was so bad that Smush Parker couldn't play for another team. He only played 16 games in the past two seasons, and he actually started for the Lakers.
But now with Fisher, the triangle offense has really been revitalized!
