Chapter 479 [Deserved, simple suppression]

Heat attack, or pass to O'Neal low singles.

O'Neal took the ball on the left, swayed lightly with his back and right shoulder, and quickly turned to the middle for a hook, all in one move.As soon as the ball was shot, it was blocked by Yao Ming with a slap.

In the past, Yao Ming played too little time, many stars did not know him, and all the strong players ate "Yao-style hot pot".They are accustomed to playing against average-height insiders, and misjudged Yao Ming's defensive style.

No one in the NBA can take advantage of Yao Ming in the low post.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Yao Ming only played 7 seasons and 5 games before he retired due to injury. After 05, several seasons were incomplete and he was still inducted into the Hall of Fame.

This is not because the league sees him as the number one star in China, but because he deserves it and has real strength.It is also a Chinese player, Yi Jianlian has no face, and it is difficult to get a basic salary in the NBA later.If Yi Jianlian has Yao Ming's defensive ability, coupled with his shooting range, even if he can't hold the ball and attack, there will definitely be many teams rushing to dig him.

Iguodala picked up the basketball and quickly transported it through half court. Seeing that Wade was closely following, there was no chance for a fast break, so he stabilized and passed it to Kobe.

Iguodala is also improving. His ball handling is not top-notch, but he uses his body and court width to protect the basketball.

Kobe and Yao Ming played pick-and-roll again, and O'Neal was already angry.He suffered two caps on the offensive end, and the defensive end is also the main target of the opponent's attack. How can this be tolerated?
O'Neal considered himself the league's No. [-] star, and now he's getting the treatment of a defensive hole.

Kobe Bryant jumped to the right, facing the frame at a 45-degree angle. He dribbled the ball with his hips and took a step towards the bottom line. He lightly probed his right shoulder and made a fake action to jump to the basket.O'Neal hurriedly moved his body to the left, his center of gravity was deviated, Kobe handed the ball to his left with his right hand, and quickly changed direction to the middle.

He dribbled the ball, took a jump, turned half-back, and threw the ball to the basket. He made a mid-range shot from the free throw line, completely avoiding O'Neal, and the ball went into the net hollow. 7 to 0.

Lakers home fans cheered together.O'Neal was humiliated by his former younger brother scoring consecutively.Today's play style of the two teams is destined for Kobe to get the opportunity to play O'Neal with the ball dislocated. It is difficult for O'Neal to dislocate and abuse Kobe.

The Heat attacked. An angry O'Neal turned his back on the left low to ask for the ball. He arched Yao Ming twice and entered the penalty area. He turned around and took another step forward. 7 to 2.

Yao Ming couldn't defend himself, but he didn't lose his momentum, and he fought very hard.

Yang Rui anticipated this possibility before the start of the game. If he can be defended alone, he will not be a "big shark".Mutombo was all blown up in the finals, and Yao Ming didn't even make the All-Defensive Team.What he wants to do is to consume O'Neal's physical strength on both ends of the offense and defense.

The Lakers picked and rolled, this time Eddie Jones caught up, and Kobe didn't hesitate to give the ball to Yao Ming in the middle.

Yao Ming took the ball and faltered outside the three-point line. O'Neal kept his distance and interfered with one hand. Yao Ming didn't shoot and waited for his teammates to move. At this time, Rashid on the right made a screen for Damon Jones.

Yao Ming passed the ball to Damon Jones. Payton is 36 years old, and his pursuit speed is not as fast as before. Even if he is experienced, it is uncomfortable to face this kind of cover. Haslem switched to Damon Jones.

Jones returned the ball to Yao Ming in the middle.Yao Ming caught the ball very easily, and with a tiptoe, he passed the ball to Rasheed, who was empty-cutting.

In this way of play, O'Neal can't interfere with the pass, which is simple and effective.

Shaquille O'Neal is a meat shield center. He is good at resisting people in the low post, preventing opponents from entering the penalty area, and perimeter players who block shots and break into the basket. They belong to the same category as Yao Ming.When the opponent's center is positioned farther out, O'Neal expresses his attention when he stretches out his hand, and will never go close.He is not close to the body, Yao Ming will be very comfortable to receive a pass from his teammates on the outside, and there is enough space to lob the ball inside. He is not under pressure, and the success rate of passing is naturally high.

Therefore, cooperating with the center is really a path that is very suitable for Yao Ming.

Rasheed stretched out his lower left arm on the right and scooped up the ball, leaning on Payton to force a layup. Payton knew he couldn't prevent it, so he chose to pull a foul and send Rasheed to the free throw line.

Rasheed made two free throws, but unfortunately failed to give Yao Ming an assist. 9 to 2.

The Heat attacked, and O'Neal didn't attack again. He knew that his physical strength could not support the whole game, even when he was at his peak.Yao Ming can interfere with his shooting. If he goes in and dunks every time, is that a human thing?

O'Neal gave Wade no ball cover in the middle, and Wade cut to the right and received a pass from Payton.

Yao Ming switched defense, Wade pulled the ball with one step, and at the same time took a small step to the right with his right foot, then took a big step with his left foot and quickly changed direction to the middle, completely passing Yao Ming, took another step with his right foot, and buckled with one hand. Basketball in. 9 to 4.

2003 rookie, the most popular is James, followed by Wade.This season, people have rated him more than Anthony. His breakthrough is so sharp that he can beat anyone one-on-one.

The Lakers attacked, Kobe played the pick-and-roll again, O'Neal didn't switch defense in time, and Eddie Jones couldn't catch up in time. Kobe made a pull-up jumper with one step from the left. 11 to 4.

When Kobe returned to defense, he clenched his fist with one hand, and the simple celebration was somewhat similar to Yao Ming.

This seemingly simple goal is actually the result of a lot of hard work. In the morning, Kobe practiced shooting, and the effect began to show. His body was completely in a state of excitement, and the rhythm of shooting was integrated into the muscles and marrow.He had imagined the night's game early in the morning, and coached the positions that were most likely to take more shots in the game.

When the Heat attacked and O'Neal played the pick-and-roll again, the Lakers' defensive formation changed to a zone defense, with four people shrinking, Wade and O'Neal were double-teamed near the penalty area, and only Iguodala focused on taking care of Eddie Jones.

Wade separated the ball out of the perimeter, and Payton had a good three-point jumper, which went wide under the slight interference of Damon Jones, and the rebound was obtained by Yao Ming.

The Heat's poor record this season has a lot to do with their lack of three-point shooters. Eddie Jones has only one stable shooting point in the starting lineup, and his state has declined significantly.

Eddie Jones averaged only 12.7 points, 5 rebounds and 2.7 assists while shooting 37.2 percent from three.The Heat wanted to dig Damon Jones for a base salary in the summer, but the Lakers took a step forward and opened a much better contract.

Payton's three-point ability has also degraded, shooting 32%, while Wade is mainly breakthrough.

The Lakers attacked. Kobe gave the defense to Yao Ming in the middle. Yao Ming refused to vote in the face of O'Neal, and saw the opportunity and gave it to the side Rashid.

Rasheed pretended to drop the ball to Kobe, who was running low on the right, and suddenly pulled up and made a straight-arm jumper against Haslem.He dodged the block and the ball went in. 14 to 4.

Stan Van Gundy requested a timeout, and the Heat must strengthen their defense.As for whether it can be strengthened, he is not sure, the adjustment is urgent, the Lakers Trident attack is too strong.

Barkley laughed: "The existence of Rasheed makes the Heat very uncomfortable. His role in the system is very important. Because he has a three-point range, O'Neal has to be forced to switch to the pick-and-roll. Even if he can defend, it will consume a lot of physical strength. That's how the Raptors abused the Lakers twice in the Finals."

Smith agrees: "Rasheed's numbers aren't very pretty. With Garnett, Duncan, and Nowitzki in the West, it's hard for him to be an All-Star, but he has no doubt that he's an All-Star."

Yang Rui was very satisfied with Rasheed's selfless style of play. When the player came off the court, he specially praised Rasheed.

Yang Rui believes that the Lakers will definitely beat the Heat today!
