From today on is the king

Chapter 678 677. The reprinted version of the Shuangsha trio! (seeking a monthly ticket)
Jason Terry watched Liu Mang come up and flirtatiously play tricks on Fisher, feeling so unwilling!

But now he also understands that there is also a gap between the sixth man and the sixth man. It is really rare for a sixth man with Liu Mang to average 20+ per game. It is even rarer to have such a strong learning ability like Liu Mang, who can quickly learn the skills that suit him!
The second quarter started with several rounds. Liu Mang singled Fisher 4 times in a row, hitting a super high shooting rate of 4 of 3 shots. Fisher was not bad at defense, but facing Liu Mang, the height gap was too big. With a height gap of 8 cm, Fisher, who was only 1.8 meters [-], did not have long hands.

Liu Mang made 4 of 3 shots and scored 7 points in a row.

When Kobe met Barnes, he met a vicious dog. If Kobe's defense was a mad dog, Barnes' defense was definitely a vicious dog.

But it's weird, Liu Mang saw appreciation in Kobe's eyes after seeing Kobe being flipped over!

This guy is a masochist!

In fact, the main reason is that although Barnes's movements are big, they are not aimed at hurting people. The main reason is to hurt Kobe. It doesn't matter if he gets fouled.

打了3分钟，科比只拿到了5分, 其中3个是罚球，4罚3中，打到现在一共拿到了13分。

And Liu Mang already scored 17 points, and the two teams tied at 28 points!
Kobe played a little alone today. Except when O'Neal passed to O'Neal when he was stuck, he didn't pass the ball at other times, and he didn't take the initiative to create opportunities for his teammates. Kobe passed to the inside when O'Neal got stuck in the position when he was physically strong in the first quarter. O'Neal became the main organizer of the first quarter.

It was the Lakers offense again, and Kobe once again faced Barnes with a strong defensive shot. Barnes was very tight, Kobe hit another iron, and O'Neal showed his strength this time.

30 to 28, the Lakers once again lead by two points.

It was time for the Eagles to attack again, and when Liu Mang pushed forward, Zen master on the Lakers bench blew his whistle, signaling Kobe and Fisher to switch defenses.

Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt, saw that damned little blacksmith coming again, and immediately passed the ball to Jason Terry.

Barnes basically has no offensive ability, so Liu Mang and Jason Terry are going to play singles whoever meets Fisher first.

Jason Terry saw that Kobe had finally left and the ball was coming, and he almost shed tears of happiness. He wanted to single Fisher with the ball!
It's just that Fisher's defensive pressure was beyond Jason Terry's expectations!
As expected of a little fish who can squeeze Payton on the bench for a long time, the 29-year-old Fisher, who is at his peak, is fast and has unexpectedly good physical fitness. Jason Terry's tears of happiness did not flow out, but were forced to flow back!
Jason Terry saw Liu Mang beating Fisher so easily, but he didn't expect that he just didn't move!
There is no reason!
Jason Terry didn't get a chance, so he could only make a strong shot against Fisher. Fisher's strong body interfered a lot with Jason Terry, and Jason Terry made a long two-point shot.

O'Neal defends the rebound, and the Lakers play fast break!
Kobe and O'Neal's fast break was simple. Liu Mang looked at such a big O'Neal, and he was 32 years old. He was not much slower than Kwame Brown. After following Kobe, Liu Mang had to block up with Barnes and Boozer.

One of the best skills Wang Zhizhi has learned over the past year with the Lakers is to follow up to pick up bargains, bypassing the defense of a group of people attracted by Kobe and O'Neal and cut into the interior.

7 points!

Wang Zhizhi scored higher than O'Neal!

Follow the fat man to eat meat!
It was the Eagles attacking again. After Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt, although he felt that Jason Terry was a bit weak today, he still passed the pass.

However, Jason Terry strikes again, which is quite embarrassing!O'Neal's advantage in rebounding against Kwame Brown under the basket is really not ordinary. The tonnage gap between Kwame Brown and Ratliff is still a bit large, and he was dug up again.

The Lakers counterattacked again, and the OK combination had many contradictions, but I have to say that they are the best partners. They don’t need to communicate or the two are unwilling to communicate, but they still formed a perfect counterattack formation. Received the ball from the corner, made an open three-pointer, and hit it again!

4 out of 2!

Wang Zhizhi made 3 of 4 2-pointers today. Before halftime, Wang Zhizhi scored 10 points!

The role players who played with Kobe and O'Neal looked good, not for nothing. The two men were too much of a threat and easily attracted at least three defenses.

In the first quarter, Prince, Raheem, Ratliff, and Rasheed Wallace all consumed a lot. Not everyone has unlimited physical fitness like Liu Mang, nor is it like Kobe who goes all out on both offense and defense like a mad dog and can play the whole game.

35 to 28, the Lakers opened the point difference to 7 points!
Jason Terry missed two singles, causing the Eagles to fall behind the game so far, the biggest point difference!

Liu Mang felt a sense of crisis coming!
Not anymore!
Kobe's success rate in singles is not high, and now he doesn't have the advantage of rebounding. Jason Terry can't beat Fisher, mainly because he dare not rush to the basket. O'Neal's basket is too deterrent.

correct!

Liu Mang remembered, the coach has tactics!

After receiving the serve, Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt. Jason Terry still wanted the ball. Liu Mang made two gestures. Although Jason Terry was very unhappy to be guarded by a guy who was shorter than himself, he also knew that his two consecutive irons made the situation very difficult. Seeing that Liu Mang did not pass, he immediately went to the bottom corner to open up space.

Barnes went to the bottom line on the right, ready to hit the rebound at any time, and Kwame Brown went to the bottom line on the left, also looking to hit the basket.

Liu Mang faced Kobe's defense in the top arc, protected the ball, and waited for his teammates to get in position. While waiting, Liu Mang heard Kobe's "hiss..." sound!

How the hell I thought I was a snake!
Looking at Kobe's expression of choosing and devouring someone, Liu Mang rushed to the right. Kobe quickly reacted and moved laterally to the left, trying to suppress Liu Mang beyond the three-point line, but just as he moved, he knocked down a wall!
Kobe turned his head and saw Boozer. He didn't see the interaction between Liu Mang and Boozer. He just made a gesture and blocked it so steadily!Kobe quickly bypassed Boozer to chase Liu Mang.

Liu Mang used Boozer's pick-and-roll to force his way from the right side, and Wang Zhizhi blocked him. Although he couldn't block it, he was delayed for a while, and Kobe rushed forward like a mad dog.

Liu Mang immediately took a step back and bounced towards the left rear. Kobe and Wang Zhizhi rushed forward to attack Liu Mang, Kobe blocked the way, and Wang Zhizhi rushed to block!
When Liu Mang took a step back, he had already got the ball to his waist, so Kobe and Wang Zhizhi rushed forward, but Liu Mang didn't make a shot!But dumped to Boozer!

Boozer moved to the left side of the free throw line when Kobe passed in front of him, and received a pass from Liu Mang for a mid-range shot!
A mid-range shot similar to a free throw!
effective!
After the shot, the Eagles retreated immediately. In fact, when Boozer made the shot, the others had already retreated, and the Lakers were no longer given a chance to counterattack. Liu Mang's gestures were one for pick-and-roll offense and the other for quick retreat. Don't attack rebounds, just defend!

Lakers offense.

O'Neal usually shows off in the first and fourth quarters, and even if he plays at other times, he just rests on the court.

Therefore, Kobe continues to play singles. This is not just Kobe's unique style of play. The tactical needs of the Lakers are to open up space. OK is singles. When O is not playing, of course K will keep playing.

Barnes continued to make physical contact with Kobe, and Kobe made a strong shot against the defense again, causing Barnes to foul. After hearing the whistle, Barnes was just physically fighting against the violation of the shooting cylinder, and slapped Kobe on his right hand.

Kobe walked to the free throw line with his jersey in his mouth, and was still a bit affected by the hit, making two free throws and one.

36 to 30, the Lakers still lead by 6 points.

The Eagles attacked and continued to play pick-and-rolls after coming over. Liu Mang's threat was no less than Kobe's. Kobe and Wang Zhizhi pinched Liu Mang again, and Boozer made another mid-range shot.

The little blacksmith deserved to be on the field today. He just got a beep. After coming over, he continued to single-play Barnes and slammed. This time Barnes was unable to defend and was passed by Kobe.

The Eagles attacked, and Boozer made two consecutive shots. Kobe did not dare to let go of Boozer. After Liu Mang and Boozer picked and rolled, Kobe could only follow Boozer. Liu Mang saw that Kobe did not flank him. Facing Wang Zhizhi who was defending, he easily changed direction and rushed to the basket. O'Neal blocked Liu Mang with Wang Zhizhi. He rushed in to catch the ball and dunked on the hanging frame and scored two points.

The double-brake pick-and-roll style of play is indeed an excellent style of play that once killed the OK combination twice and reached the finals. The pick-and-roll cooperation between Liu Wei and Boozer is unstoppable for the Lakers!
It's just that the Hawks' lineup lacks off-ball three-point shooters!
Jason Terry is not a player who is good at running. He doesn't have such excellent running ability. He can do it by opening up space, but he doesn't have the off-ball ability like Hornacek at the peak of Shuangsha!He is better at fixed-point catch and shoot, and his running catch and shoot is not as accurate as his singles emergency stop jumper!
Therefore, although Liu Mang and Boozer played a beautiful pick-and-roll, organized the offense and did not interrupt the scoring, they always scored two points and two points.

As for the Lakers, Kobe alone was able to withstand Liu Mang and Boozer's counterattack!
Kobe was like every time he came back from the game, playing the feeling that one person can forcefully pick a team. Barnes has done it to the extreme, but Kobe still scored consecutively and kept the point difference at about 5 points.

Today's Kobe is completely different from the Kobe that the Eagles met in the previous two seasons. This characteristic of stubbornness makes Kobe, who has a rating of 98 in rushing state ability today, really play the league's first perimeter!
Hitting the official timeout in the 7th minute of the second quarter, the Eagles were still 39 points behind 44 to 5!
Kobe played and played, and his personal scoring has surpassed Liu Mang. Kobe scored 22 points and 2 assists before halftime, and Liu Mang scored 21 points and 4 assists.

……

The official timeout, Liu Mang returned to the bench, feeling really choking!
Wang Zhizhi can't do anything else, the corner three-pointer is very accurate, Liu Mang feels a bit unlovable, he taught Wang Zhizhi to practice more corner three-pointers and air cuts, but now the retribution is on himself.

Although Wang Zhizhi's ability evaluation is only 70, and he is at the peak of his ability, but only focusing on these two points is enough for him to survive in the NBA. One trick is popular all over the world. To put it simply, Wang Zhizhi has many teams preparing to poach him after his contract expires this year. Yes, being a third insider is definitely enough, and it is very high-quality, what is missing is an opportunity, and now that the style of play is clear, Liu Mang plans to use "nepotism" to recruit Wang Zhizhi in the summer.

Although the triangle connection of Kobe, O'Neal, and Wang Zhizhi of the Lakers is not as good as the triangle connection of Malone and OK, the second team of the Eagles is just as good!It can only be a tie!

The main reason is that Jason Terry and Barnes do not have the ability to shoot off the ball. Barnes is only in the second grade, and he is not a talented player, and he has not yet developed shooting.

Coach Kruger is also very melancholy. The pick-and-roll attack is effective, but it does not have the power of the real Jazz. At most, it can be tied with the second team of the top three teams in the league like the Lakers.

Jason Terry is also very helpless. Kobe can't play, he is inferior in height, speed and strength in all aspects. This time Fisher can't play, and he can't move without the ball. However, the Lakers are now in excellent physical fitness on both perimeters and can play the whole game. He is strangled to death.

Liu Mang pondered for a while, and saw Stockton next to him, and then looked at Boozer, a flash of inspiration, lack of running pitchers?
Liu Mang immediately went to Coach Kruger and whispered a few words, Coach Kruger's eyes lit up...

……

The Eagles sent a combination of Stockton, Liu Mang, Raheem, Boozer, and Kwame Brown.

On the Lakers side, Fisher, Kobe, and O'Neal continued to play, and Kareem Rush was replaced at the small forward position to enhance outside shooting ability.

Payton was originally expected to join the Lakers, but every time he played a strong team and encountered a strong defensive opponent, he was miserable. No, he was squeezed on the bench by Fisher.

Malone's basic salary is really worth it. At the critical moment, the Lakers have to point to him to share the pressure on O'Neal. Wang Zhizhi, who scored 10 points before halftime, was replaced. Generally speaking, Zen master trusts the veteran more.

When the names of Stockton and Malone appeared on the big screen and live TV at the same time again, the fans felt like a world away, and the names of Malone and Stockton were divided into two teams, which made people feel even more incredible.

A year ago, who would have thought that this would happen?
Not only that, but the Lakers are the team most likely to reach the Finals in the West, and the Eagles are the team most likely to reach the Finals in the East. The Shuangsha may appear in the Finals again, but they are divided into two teams. Once upon a time, fans never even thought about this situation.

After a timeout, the Eagles had the ball. Stockton sent the ball to Liu Mang, who advanced to the frontcourt.

The Lakers, who have played against Shuangsha many times, saw Stockton coming up, and subconsciously thought that Stockton was coming up as an off-ball shooter. Stockton's sturdy 180 club shooting performance this year is more than enough for an off-ball shooter, and his running awareness is also very good.

Kobe continued to defend Liu Mang, but as soon as he was in front of Liu Mang, Liu Mang passed the ball to Stockton.

After passing the ball, Liu Mang rushed inside immediately, and Kobe felt bad!But he has to follow Liu Mang. Stockton is not Jason Terry. He has a very strong passing awareness and passing accuracy. Kobe can only follow Liu Mang.

Just when Liu Mang cut in, Stockton had already started to act, slowly breaking through, Boozer's pick-and-roll tacit understanding was very good, just right to block the sideways Fisher, Stockton took a step to the top arc, Malone was stunned when Boozer moved, he seemed to see himself in a pick-and-roll with Stockton, and immediately rushed towards Stockton. Next to Boozer, it looks like Fisher and Malone are holding the pick-and-roll because of Stockton's mediocre mobility right now.

However, after Malone pounced, Stockton grabbed the ball and threw it from behind to a 45-degree angle to the left!

No one there!
Just when the ball flew beyond the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the left, a hand reached out and grabbed the ball, and Liu Mang appeared in that position in time!Receive the ball and turn around and shoot a three-pointer!

No defense!After Boozer helped Stockton block Fisher, he immediately moved to the left, blocking Liu Mang's Kobe who ran out after him. Liu Mang caught the ball and turned around and hit a three-pointer!
Ma Long's heart twitched watching this scene!
Stockton, Hornacek, and himself, Malone saw that the Eagles' pick-and-roll trio was full of shadows of his own pick-and-roll trio back then!
