From today on is the king

Chapter 1525. Chapter 1524. Three Eagles Flying Together (seeking a monthly ticket)

Grant Hill is definitely not going to be fast as a guard now, but playing a small forward is not slow, average level, and playing a power forward can be regarded as a speed power forward, not to mention Kwame Brown.

The Eagles' lineup is for cavalry tactics!
On the defensive end, this lineup is definitely not as strong as the inside combination of Maimang + Wade + Boomer, but it is even more wavering!
Liu Mang and Jason Terry play together. Liu Mang is mainly responsible for attracting defenses and transition passes. Wade and Jason Terry shoot.

Similarly, the Lakers have Radmanovich and Anfernee Hardaway two defensive black holes, so there is no need to talk about defense. The skier and Penny are on the perimeter. When they meet the Hawks Liu Mang + Jason Terry + Wade's super perimeter combination, they are properly slammed. Apart from pinching Liu Mang to prevent Liu Mang from continuing to fight, there is no other effect.

On the defensive end, the Lakers focused on Liu Mang and guarding the basket. Today, Liu Mang had a higher shooting percentage in one-on-one singles than the rest of the Eagles. The Lakers guarded the basket and would rather give the Eagles a chance to shoot from a distance.

For the Eagles, Liu Mang also shrunk back many times to help Kwame Brown guard the inside.

The two teams stalemate for a while at the beginning of the second quarter. In the 3rd minute of the second quarter, Radmanovic hit an open three-pointer and tied the score!
At this time, the Lakers felt that the opportunity was coming, and wanted to take advantage of the momentum to play a wave of climax, but in this kind of game, one person can never be ignored-Jason Terry!

Liu Mang's side is strictly defended, and Wade's finishing ability has yet to adapt to the current explosive speed. Wade's pick-and-roll encounters Odom's switch and is led to the inside.

But Jason Terry has a good chance here!

After the Lakers tied the score at 39-39, Jason Terry went to the frontcourt and received a pass from Liu Mang, pulled up a three-pointer and threw it out...

in!

Liu Mang got his first assist in the second quarter!
This assist didn't even require Liu Mang's help to attract the defense, Jason Terry made the shot directly against Anfernee Hardaway!

However... this is just the beginning!
At the fourth minute and seven seconds of the second quarter, the Lakers narrowed the point difference to 1 point again. Jason Terry hit the second consecutive three-pointer to open the point difference to 4 points...

In the fourth minute and 57 seconds of the second quarter, Kobe Bryant received a pass from Odom after Gasol's pick-and-roll to narrow the point difference to two points. Jason Terry hit the third consecutive three-pointer to open the point difference to five points.

At No. 11 seconds of the sixth point, Kobe and Gasol cooperated. After the pick-and-roll, the two hit the inside line at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, Jason Terry hit his fourth consecutive three-pointer, once again widening the point difference to 4 points.

This time the Lakers coach Phil Jackson called a timeout!
Zen master is not afraid of falling behind, not afraid of chasing points all the time, but afraid of the situation where he is about to gain momentum and is forcibly killed by the opponent's three-point throw.

贾森-特里半节时间7中5，其中中距离3中1，三分球只出手了4次，但4次出手全进！
53 to 49, the Eagles continue to maintain a 4-point lead!

Liu Mang felt like Fisher, pushing the ball into the frontcourt, to Wade, Wade burst, to Jason Terry, Jason Terry threw it directly.
Liu Mang got 4 assists lying down!
Liu Mang scored 22 points and 8 assists!
Jason Terry's four consecutive three-pointers boosted morale too much. During the timeout, the Eagles were extremely restless.

On the Lakers side, morale suffered a huge blow.

Every time the Lakers were about to overtake, Jason Terry gave them a head-on blow.

Who would have thought that Jason Terry, who often made more than a dozen shots and hit two or three games this season, exploded as he said, scoring 14 points in half a quarter!
This can catch up with Liu Mang's crazy scoring in the first quarter!
Liu Mang came over to Jason Terry, Jason Terry has had enough now, Liu Mang is wearing training clothes, but McGrady is taking off his training clothes...

"Okay, come here quickly, BIG-YAO, are you ready?" Zen master tapped on the tactical board, as if nothing happened.

Zen master's coaching style, which is regarded as "pretentious", does not shout, make trouble, get angry or get excited. At a certain moment, it is like a booster for the players.

Kobe is the soul of the Lakers, and Zen Master is the backbone. The soul may jump, but the backbone is not so restless.

The Lakers players saw Zen master calmly arranging the next tactics, and their mentality gradually calmed down...

The game is still long, only the second quarter!

Just as Zen Master calmly dealt with the current situation, Liu Mang heard a familiar prompt.

"Ding... Head coach field: Zen is triggered, and the mentality of the Lakers players about to collapse is relieved, from Phil Jackson."

"Here it goes again, why hasn't this grandpa KFC retired yet?" Liu Mang sat on a chair and looked at the players forming a circle.

Zen master didn't hide it, and directly asked Yao Ming to take off his training clothes and prepare to play.

Coach Kruger also replaced Gasol, who played miraculously in just over two minutes in the first quarter.

The Lakers re-dispatched the starting lineup of Fisher, Kobe, Ariza, Gasol, and Yao Ming.

For the Hawks, Wade, Jason Terry, Tracy McGrady, Kwame Brown and Gasol Jr. played.

On Liu Mang's side, Coach Kruger still wanted to let him rest for a while. He did not replace Rondo but continued to keep Wade because of height considerations. If Rondo and Jason Terry played together, the height would be too miserable.

Back from timeout, the Lakers attack.

After receiving the serve, Fisher advanced to the three-point line and passed the ball to Gasol, who was one step beyond the free throw line.

Liu Mang watched from the sidelines as Gasol guided Yao Ming into position, and sure enough, the opponent still wanted to beat Yao Ming.

Liu Mang felt very strange: "Didn't you suffer? No!"

Liu Mang found that Yao Ming's position for receiving the ball was much farther than the previous low position for the ball!

really!

When Yao Ming received the ball, he took a step back towards the three-point line, that kind of receiving the ball, turning around in an instant after receiving the ball, without pushing the basket and taking a step back!

After receiving the ball, Yao Ming and Gasol separated a little space and leaned back to shoot!

Meanwhile, both Bryant and Ariza rushed inside, ready to rebound.

But this time Yao Ming's singles shot went in!
It is true that Yao Ming needs to settle down in the low post and then retreat or turn around for a jumper... If he can't squeeze Gasol at all, it is equivalent to giving a cap. Yao Ming's height makes it difficult for him to block the mid-range shot when he is not so good in the wingspan.

But this time Yao Ming did not catch the ball in the low post, but at close range. He created a little space from the very beginning of the catch, and finally made his first singles shot of the game.

This is the way Gasol's elder brother thought of to deal with his younger brother's sloppy body and invisible defensive awareness. He taught it to Yao Ming. Yao Ming has solid basic skills and has done a very good job!

This is what O'Neal can't do when he gets old. He doesn't have Yao Ming's mid-range threat. Although O'Neal has better turning and flexibility than Yao Ming, he can't complete Yao Ming's style of play. When O'Neal is on the court, Gasol Jr. never leaves the three-second zone.

After the goal, Yao Ming clenched his fists and retreated with all his strength.

Seeing that Yao Ming scored, Zen Master breathed a sigh of relief. The failure to score the first offense after the timeout had a great impact on the Lakers. The current morale of the Lakers was forced by Zen Master's "pretentiousness".

The Eagles attacked, and Wade scored two points with a mid-range jumper after McGrady's pick-and-roll.

Relying on the personal ability of the super perimeter group, with so many stars, when the Eagles are not playing Princeton's team tactics, it is this simple triangle coordination.

To the Lakers offense.

Yao Ming continued to get close to the low post and leaned against Gasol Jr. to ask for the ball. After receiving the ball, he lifted it up.
It was useless for Kwame Brown to shrink in. He was blocked by Yao Ming's huge back, and Yao Ming scored two points with one-handed layup.

Dream steps!

Yao Ming played the dreamy footsteps of the inside players in the league that are about to be lost!
The Lakers tenaciously continue to maintain the possibility of tying or even overtaking the score at any time!
The two teams started a tug-of-war in the last few minutes of the first half. The Lakers stared at Jason Terry. Kobe was like a mad dog and refused to give Jason Terry a shot. However, Wade and Tracy McGrady played well in the pick-and-roll.

On the Lakers side, Yao Ming was forced to leave the three-second zone in the first quarter, which was not all a bad thing. On the offensive end, he only opened up space in the middle distance in the first quarter, which helped his physical fitness. Now that he has found a countermeasure, he played four consecutive singles and made 4 of 3 shots, helping the Lakers maintain the possibility of tying or overtaking the score before halftime.

Finally, with 1 minute left in the first half, Kobe, who had been slowed down for a few minutes on the offensive end, caught Yao Ming and made a mid-range shot from Yao Ming. The Lakers tied the score!

64 to 64 level!
But... the jet, which had been silent for a few minutes, was dispatched again at this time!
Jason Terry waved towards the bench not to pause, and directly asked the ball to advance towards the frontcourt. After rushing to the three-point line and being stuck by Kobe, Jason Terry faced Kobe's defense and directly pulled up a three-point shot from the top arc...

Liu Mang took off half of his training clothes, his head was in the training clothes, and suddenly he was grabbed by a hand, and the training clothes were forcibly put back on.

At this time Liu Mang heard the referee's whistle.

Liu Mang looked at the field, Jason Terry was circling the field with open arms!

Caused a three-point foul?
Liu Mang looked at the referee, and the referee's gesture was a free throw!
When Liu Mang looked up the court, Jason Terry just opened his arms outside the three-point line, so it was 3+1!

Liu Mang felt that his teammates on the bench around him were blown up!
With Jason Terry also making a penalty, the Eagles once again opened the point difference to 4 points!
Got it!
Liu Mang leaned back in his chair. Now that Wade and Tracy McGrady maintained a regular offense, and Jason Terry went crazy and scored five consecutive three-pointers, Liu Mang waited for the second half of the game.

Kobe was naturally not to be outdone. When the Lakers attacked, Kobe received a pass from Fisher at a 45-degree angle on the right. Yao Ming played a few times.

Kobe faced McGrady's defense at a 45-degree angle, and began to hit McGrady's chest with an iron head. He dawdled for a few seconds, maybe because he felt the position, Kobe pulled it up suddenly, facing McGrady's defense and shot a three-pointer...

Come in too!

The morale of the Lakers just suppressed by Jason Terry is alive again!
With 14 seconds left, 67 to 68, 1 point difference, the Lakers can accept it.

After all, Liu Mang scored 20 points in the first quarter for the Eagles, and Jason Terry scored 18 points in the second quarter.

but……

The Eagles' final drive...

When Jason Terry dribbled the ball to the last two seconds, he made another three-pointer against Kobe's defense!
6 of 6 three-pointers in a single quarter, plus 3 of 1 mid-range shots, Jason Terry scored 21 points in a single quarter!
71 to 67, with Jason Terry hitting a three-pointer at the buzzer, the Eagles ended the first half with a 4-point lead!
Ten seconds ago, the Lakers players who were still secretly happy that the point difference was only 1 point left felt a ton of damage!

This was the case before the official timeout of the second quarter. The Eagles relied on Jason Terry's 3-minute hurricane to kill their hopes of catching up with the score.

With six consecutive three-pointers, the Eagles rank fourth in team history!
Liu Mang once hit an NBA record of ten consecutive three-pointers, seven consecutive three-pointers and eight consecutive three-pointers.

McGrady's personal record also has eight consecutive three-pointers, which was played against James when he was still with the Magic in the 03-04 season.

Now Jason Terry has the chance to catch up with Liu Mang and McGrady's eight consecutive three-pointers.

Perhaps it is still possible to catch up with Kobe's nine consecutive three-pointers or Liu Mang's tenth consecutive three-pointers... These two TV commentators also think it is too difficult, but it is still possible to catch up to eight consecutive three-pointers, at least one short of the third seven-pointer three-pointer in team history maintained by Liu Mang!

The morale of the Lakers has suffered a crit now, the main reason is not the 4-point difference, what is the 4-point difference, Kobe just scored 1 points in the last minute.

But Liu Mang scored 20 points in the first quarter, and Jason Terry scored 21 points in the second quarter.

Who can be calm in the face of the opponent's performance!
