Healing Basketball

Chapter 549. 549. Surprise and Fear
Ray Allen likes rules and likes the team to have a clear distinction between primary and secondary. Even if he is not the 'master', he also wants to see the team have a clear distinction between primary and secondary.

At the beginning of the Bucks, he suffered from the team's unclear primary and secondary losses. The coaching staff tended to be big dogs for a while, favored him for a while, and occasionally valued the leadership of aliens. In the end, the team was a mess; , The priority of the stars is very clear, but the talents and strengths of Lewis, Radmanovich and others are far behind the big dogs and aliens.

Now rejoining a talented and powerful team, Ray Allen hopes that the team can build a clear priority and core team around the genius he followed.

Since he joined the Trail Blazers, he has been in constant phone contact with the coaching staff. After Kobe Bryant’s training camp returned to Portland in September, he had more direct communication with the coaching staff. His thoughts on this aspect were also revealed in these exchanges. to the coaching staff.

Obviously, in this regard, he and the coaching staff agree!
Back from the intermission, the Trail Blazers sent a combination of Payton, Liu Xiu, outlaws, Varejao, and Kwame Brown; the Lakers sent Deron, Kobe, Butler, Brian Cook, Combination of memes.

After the start of the second half, the Trail Blazers continued to defend.

A wider range of attack Kobe Bryant, more violent confrontation.

In this quarter, the Trail Blazers' defense against Kobe should be regarded as a success. When Kobe was replaced for a rest at 9 minutes and 02 seconds, in 9 minutes, Kobe made 4 successful shots and only hit 1 goal, plus 4 of 4 free throws. To 6 points, there is only 1 assist.

但德隆在第三节前半段借着科比的威胁串联球队拿到两次次助攻，第4分06秒上场打到9分02秒的王治郅也靠着给底线队友策应分球拿到两次助攻，加上奥多姆两个突分传球助攻，湖人队9分钟时间里拿到16分，而开拓者队在这个阶段只拿到13分，湖人队以64比63反超开拓者队1分。

But after the Lakers replaced Kobe, the Trail Blazers immediately replaced Randolph while the opponent passed the ball out of bounds.

When Kobe was not on the court, Randolph’s offensive effect was greater than the defensive side effect. In the last 3 minutes of the third quarter, Randolph’s main attack, Liu Xiu’s assistance, Ray Allen and McDyess responded, and the Trail Blazers played. The Lakers scored 9 to 5, 13 to 16 in a single quarter and tied it to 22 to 21!

After three quarters, the Trail Blazers led the Lakers by 72 points 69 to 3!
...

The lead was snatched back again, and Zen Master had already guessed it would be like this.

With Kobe and without Kobe, the Lakers are completely two teams.

Not only the offense, but also the defense. The Lakers can barely support in the defensive battle, relying on Kobe Bryant, the first defense leader standing on the front line.

Therefore, during Kobe's 3-minute break, Zen master was ready for the score to be overtaken, and Kobe had to slow down no matter what.

Of course, it would be great if the players fought hard to hold on to the slight lead or gain a little more lead.

Now it has been overtaken, and it is only a matter of course.

For Maurice Cheeks, it is not a surprise that Randolph led the team to a 9-5 lead.

Their overall advantage of the Trail Blazers is so great that by this time they have not yet had a clear lead.

After three quarters, Liu Xiu scored 14 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, which is already very good in the eyes of Maurice Cheeks.

但另一边，18投8中，其中三分球5中2，外加9中8的罚球，科比三节拿到26分6板5助攻2抢断！

Maurice Cheeks didn't take Kobe seriously, he did. Their warden mentioned how much Kobe had improved every day after the preseason.

But he never thought that the progress would be so great!There is really someone who can play like Jordan!
Facing such a player, he obviously has many advantages at the team level, but Maurice Cheeks feels that he is completely unable to control the game.

Ever since, at the end of the quarter, Maurice Cheeks made a bold decision-crazy defensive counterattack!

Frontcourt, outlaws, Kwame Brown, McDyess, back line, Warden + Flying Squirrel's double counterattack combination!
After the start of the final quarter, the outsiders defended Kobe from the outside to shoot, Liu Xiu and Kwame Brown blocked the flanks, and McDyess protected the frame. In this case, Kobe could make the shot, and the Blazers recognized it. The rest of the Lakers, The Trail Blazers are still fighting against exhaustion in hand-to-hand combat. When they need to pinch Kobe, they are more decisive in emptying the rest of the Lakers.

On the offensive end, the Trail Blazers counterattacked if they could counterattack, and if they couldn't counterattack, they let Little Flying Squirrel play the main offense and Liu Xiu played auxiliary control.

This strategy worked wonders!
At 8 minutes and 02 seconds into the final quarter, the Trail Blazers scored 11 points in this quarter, not many points, but they only scored 4 points against the Lakers!
Yes, that's 4 points!
During this period, Kobe made 3 of 0 shots and passed a lot of balls, but he didn't get back a single assist.

The Trail Blazers tasted what it means to be brave. Maurice Cheeks fought hard, but the opponent really couldn't make shots from the outside. Kobe made 8 of 3 shots in 0 minutes, and the others only made 11 shots. middle!
When it entered the timeout again, the score was 83 to 73, and the Trail Blazers had a 10-point lead!
...

What is a surprise?This is called a surprise!
Maurice Cheeks proves how important a decisive coach is!
Being able to play this wave of 11 to 4 must not only rely on the defensive performance of these 8 minutes, but the accumulation of the first three quarters.

Their overall advantage of the Trail Blazers has always been there, and they have been gaining momentum. Maurice Cheeks knows that he just made good use of those accumulated intangible advantages.

With 3 minutes and 58 seconds left and a 10-point lead, Maurice Cheeks finally got a clear lead, and the fans at the scene began to cheer and celebrate unscrupulously.

Pause back.

The Lakers sent a combination of Deron, Kobe, Odom, Brian Cook and Wang Zhizhi.

The Trail Blazers sent a combination of Payton, Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, Kwame Brown, and Varejao.

Although the hanging heart was relieved, Maurice Cheeks was not careless. The extrajudicial fanatic played 35 minutes tonight, showing fatigue. In order to ensure the continuity of the defense, he replaced Payton Well, veterans, this is the time to come in handy. Liu Xiu and Ray Allen are also the masters of defense, and there are no offensive players on the inside. Both towers are good at defense.

The tactical arrangement is also simple-consumption!
The TV commentator saw the lineup of the Trail Blazers and had already begun to analyze the reasons why the Trail Blazers won tonight.

Then, after returning from the timeout, Kobe threw two three-pointers against Payton's defense!
During this period, Ray Allen also made a three-pointer, but missed.

科比两个单打三分命中打出一波6比0，湖人队将比分追至79比83，分差缩小到4分！
Fortunately, Liu Xiu stood up in time and faced Kobe with a rhythmic breakthrough. Although he did not get rid of Kobe's defense, he gained a breakthrough space. After entering the basket and relying on Wang Zhizhi's supplementary defense, he made a high throw and hit the board, 85 to 79 , the point difference returned to more than 5 points, Liu Xiu helped the Trail Blazers stop the bleeding.

But Kobe's sharp blade has already cut a hole!
When the Lakers were on the offensive, Kobe shot Payton away with a feint shot and rushed inside. Liu Xiu made up the defense in time, and Payton chased the defense quickly. Brian Cook quietly ran to the right corner where no one noticed him, caught the ball and made a three-pointer!

82 to 85, the Lakers' point difference narrowed to 3 points!
One goal can tie the score, and one goal can overtake the score. The Trail Blazers called a timeout!
...

Surprises come suddenly, and surprises come just as suddenly.

Suddenly, he was fucked 9 to 2!

No matter how you analyze and predict, no one can predict that Kobe will be able to take off against Payton and score two consecutive three-pointers when Payton is stuck, right?
But Kobe just made it!It also led to Brian Cook's three-pointer!
At this time, Brian Cook was replaced, and Maurice Cheeks was also convinced.

Brian Cook doesn't have any ability to defend the outside line, so Odom can only defend the outside line on the defensive end. Bryan Cook's three-pointer continued Kobe's fierce counterattack!
Unable to prevent Liu Xiu from breaking through after the pick-and-roll, Zen Master chose to give up this point and give it a go.

This wave is Zen Master's bet won!
However, although he was caught off guard by Kobe, Maurice Cheeks did not panic. At this moment, he calmly rotated personnel and arranged defensive tactics.

Replaced with an inside combination of outsiders, Kwame Brown, and McDyess, and Liu Xiu and Ray Allen on the back line.

In any case, still leading, Maurice Cheeks still chooses to start on the defensive end.

The TV commentators were shocked by Kobe's explosive performance, and they also spoke highly of Maurice Cheeks' response at critical moments.

Maurice Cheeks, who won the championship, was more confident and firmer at critical moments.

However, the Lakers have already started!
In the next 1 minute, Kobe scored another 5 points, a 2+1 breakthrough to the basket, a catch and turn over and a mid-range shot, helping the Lakers play a wave of 5-2 and tied with 87-87 Trail Blazers.

With 41 seconds left, Maurice Cheeks did not call a timeout and chose to trust the players.

But sometimes, trust will be paid wrong. The Trail Blazers took the time to make a shot when there are only two seconds left in the 24-second attack time. Iron!

With 19 seconds left, the rebound was picked off by Kobe!

The Zen master did not call a timeout, but Kobe chose to fight back at a critical moment!

Liu Xiu and the outlaws retreated to block Kobe. Liu Xiu and the outlaws all thought that Kobe was going to force it, but he passed it on!
　Guaranteed monthly pass
