Forward to the basket

Cutting meat with a blunt knife is the plan of the "Zen Master". The Lakers' offense is not fast because of his signal from the sidelines, but it is accurate enough, just like the pass and cut just now. Parker's drive from the baseline started, all the way to Odom receiving the ball in the paint and scoring with a small half-turn hook.

This process is completely like a gear running. Every pass and cut is tightly connected, one link after another, continuous, and as long as a gap is torn, a scoring opportunity can be created.

The most important thing is that in the previous six offenses, the Lakers have all grasped the shooting opportunities brought about by the pull. The 100% shooting rate seems to be not only bluffing, but also making Celtic's defense very difficult. passive.

It's not that the Celtics have never encountered such a style of play that pays attention to the success rate, but they are just dragging their speed to fight against themselves, which is more tormenting than the Pistons, and the shooting rate is significantly higher.

The Pistons take defense as the foundation of their lives, so they will take the initiative to reduce their speed, and then start to play with your success rate. They don't try to succeed every time they attack, but they will definitely take the initiative to destroy your rhythm.

Those Detroiters took the initiative to use defense to destroy your offense, but the Lakers are different here. Their defense is far less fierce than the Pistons. They just play more meticulously and patiently when preparing to attack.

The Lakers have never been a team that lives on defense. From showtime in the Pat Riley era to the ok combination of O'Neal and Kobe, offense is always the first choice for these guys.

Los Angeles people like to watch Lakers games for this reason. Just like Auerbach said, those guys just pointed at the offense to sell tickets. How could they not delve into this thing.

Therefore, no matter when, even if it is the Lakers who have fallen into the bottom, their offense has never become rough, especially after the "Zen Master" coached, the offensive nature in their bones has continued.

Phil Jackson's team is definitely not the strongest defensive one. From the time of the Bulls, what he emphasized was to put as much pressure on the opponent as possible on the defensive end, rather than relying on defense to overwhelm the opponent.

Offense and defense, the "Zen Master" team requires integrity. Even when there are alternative players like Rodman in the team, the integrity of offense and defense has never been destroyed.

The current Lakers team is in a period of decline. Their personnel mix and ability are far from as strong as they were in their heyday, but the tactical thinking that belongs to the "Zen Master" has long been rooted in their minds.

How to say that Phil Jackson has also been in Los Angeles for several years. Of course, besides being the head coach, this guy has not forgotten to pick up the boss's daughter, but the system he built has indeed taken root here.

Even if the guy in the middle has left, when he comes back, he will still put out the rotten tactics. However, it turns out that the plain triangle offense is effective here.

Countless opponents have carefully considered Phil Jackson's signature tactic. After all, this old guy has won nine championships. Most people always want to study him and his team.

But after more than ten years, after countless people's analysis and research, it can be said that this tactic and Phil Jackson's various habits have been almost understood, but this guy is still winning the game that should be won.

With so many people pondering this way, even Goldbach's conjecture should be deciphered. The triangle offense has long been dismembered thoroughly, but this thing can be effective in the hands of the "Zen Master". Regarding this point , You can't accept it even if you want to, things you can see clearly may not be able to really stop them.

In fact, Rivers is in this situation now. He can see what the opponent wants to do, but when he wants to stop the opponent, there will always be a very awkward feeling in it, which is that you can see it, but you can't prevent it.

It's not how sharp the Lakers' offense is, it's just that when these guys are passing the ball in rotation, the timing of running and firing with the ball is just right, and it's very smooth to catch up with the opponent.

The offense of the Lakers is not difficult to deconstruct. Smush Parker controlled the ball over the midfield, and then quickly handed it to Kobe who was cruising near the top of the arc. After holding the ball, Kobe either broke through or attracted double-teams. Once there is a loophole on the Celtics side, it is immediately transferred to Bynum in the high position. If the middle point moves, the other points will follow. Often in this combination of internal and external passing and cutting, Offensive opportunities can be played out. Odom scored three goals in a row because he found a gap in the defense during the pass and run.

The tactics of the Lakers are not complicated, and it can even be said that they can be understood at a glance, but tactics are always something that needs to be executed by players. Whether your players can do it or not depends on their execution ability.

Although most of the current Lakers players came after they were dismantled and rebuilt, "Zen Master" has a very strong ability to knead players. As long as they are suitable for the triangle offense, he can integrate them for you.

Of course, the most important thing is that "Zen Master" has a good card in his hand. The pass after Smush Parker is the key to the Lakers' ability to completely disrupt the Celtics' defensive level.

Kobe Bryant is an absolute killer who can score 81 points in a game. When he holds the ball, he can always exert a strong pressure on the opponent. Whether you guard him or not, there is This kind of pressure continues to affect you around you. Just now, Sprevie faced Kobe, and it was obviously very difficult.

Sprevi, who has been staying on the sidelines since the timeout, crossed his waist and remained silent for a long time. His fierce face was expressionless. Back then, this guy was also an old fritter who relied on defense in the league. Knicks Without him and Houston, the team's black eight miracle may have been out of play long ago, and his defense is the key to it. In the defense of the swingman, Sprewell rarely suffers such a very suffocating loss .

The previous games also proved this point. Generally, shooting guards or small forwards, with a slightly weaker physique, don’t even try to break through Sprewell’s entanglement. Guys like Hamilton, who are like supernatural beings, are all stared at by him. Those who are alive and dead, even those who are fast, are often tortured to death by his card position.

This is a kind of instinct. Although Sprewell is 36 years old, he is so sophisticated on the defensive end and can still take advantage of many opponents in the same position. It is really not easy for ordinary people to take advantage of him.

It's just that the guy Sprewell has to deal with now is not an ordinary person. In the three minutes just now, in the one-on-one defense, Sprewell, who has never suffered a lot, was forced by Kobe for four or five minutes. Second-rate.

It's really not that Sprewell doesn't play hard, it's just that the opponent's cutting speed and ball control rhythm are really at the highest level in the NBA, and Kobe, who is playing in his prime, how could he be so easily guarded.

The Lakers can still maintain the top eight in the Western Conference, because the team has such an unsolvable offensive weapon. Most people know that if they want to win the Lakers, they must guard against Kobe, but if they want to crucify Kobe, I don't know how many head coaches have the extravagant wish, but few people do it now.

Last year, the Suns were beaten 3-1 by the Lakers because they couldn’t do anything about Kobe Bryant. With an average of 30+ points per game, it was a big killer. A little bit of support from the teammates around them could create a big blow for the opponent. Trouble, being reversed by the opponent in the later stage is also because of a guy like Bell who is not stingy and ruthless.

It's really not that Sprewell doesn't risk his life, it's just that he wants to catch Kobe, a top swingman with a very fast first step and a peak physical condition. If he is about ten years younger, Maybe he can give the opponent a go. If his point is broken, the entire defensive system will be loose.

Sprewell, who was standing on the sidelines, was feeling depressed all the time. It was impossible for him, an old guy with good physical fitness, to feel tired after a 3-minute game. It was just that he was a little annoyed by Kobe's sudden rush.

This is not a matter of losing face. He was suppressed by his opponent, and the Lakers' triangle offense can be played unscrupulously. The most important thing is that the breakthrough has always been placed on him, which really makes him feel a little bit angry. Well, the few attacks just now were successful because Kobe tore the gap from himself.

That guy wasn't a finisher after the drive, but after messing up the defense, you couldn't help but cover up, and unless you were naive enough to think Kobe couldn't shoot, you gotta go out and defend whoever you were.

There are loopholes in defense and double-teaming. This is an obvious problem, especially when the opponent stretches the formation, this loophole will be more likely to be highlighted. Even if Kobe still shoots like a numb, he should pass the ball. He can also make a pass when there is such an obvious opportunity, even if his assist cannot directly penetrate the Celtics defense, it can also disrupt the rotation of the entire defense. Bynum or Odom There are enough opportunities to hold the ball and face the basket. The three consecutive shots just now are a good proof.

This kind of tactic seems simple, but it has enough lethality. The 3 minutes just now are a clear proof. As long as they can't stare at this guy, the Lakers' offense can be played quite smoothly.

Even if the Lakers can't maintain the [-]% shooting rate just now, it can still mess up the Celtics quite uncomfortable, at least make them feel confused.

In fact, it is not only Sprewell who is a little annoyed now. When Rivers watched the situation on the sidelines, he was also very annoyed, because the "Zen Master" didn't play any complicated things with him, but simply used The players' passing, cutting, running and positioning made his team play very awkwardly, and even was still at a disadvantage on the scene. This was very different from the Celtics' games before, and it always felt very awkward.

Before the start of the game, Rivers had a premonition that the game would be difficult to play, but he did not expect that it would be such an unfavorable start. The opponent's game was very simple, but very effective.

If the opponent continues to fight like this, what awaits the Celtics is likely to be the first loss after six consecutive victories. Rivers is not afraid of the team losing, but if the loss is so embarrassing, he must have intentions Not to be reconciled, not to mention that the Lakers are now No. 8 in the West, and they are still a deadly enemy.

"If we are struggling so hard against No.8 in the Western Conference, we still expect to reach the finals in the future? Isn't that waiting to be cleaned up? Spurs, Mavericks, these teams are obviously more difficult than the Lakers, don't they? Waiting to surrender when we hit them? So what's the point of us making the playoffs?"

Rivers didn't intend to just bow his head and admit defeat, and the group of bandits around him also had the same thoughts.

Especially listening to the wild shouts of those Lakers fans, Rivers slapped the tactical board in his hand fiercely. He didn't care whose territory it was, wanted to hold the Celtics down?Do your dream!

"From now on, don't worry about the damn score. If you keep thinking about those problems, you will never be able to play this game well. Remember my words, how they like to play is their business. What we have to do is Hit us, don't care what the other side is doing! If you can't defend! Just attack me!"

It's not that Rivers is acting ruthlessly, it's just that he knows that a triangle offense that has been used by the "Zen Master" for many years cannot be solved by just saying a few words, even if you know what the other party is going to do, it may not It can be implemented in place. Instead of entangled in this, it is better to fight hard with the other party.

Just like when you know that the main lore of the Qiao Gang, you can't seal it no matter what, anyway, you may not be able to crack the opponent's triangle attack now, and you can't cool down the opponent's hand, so it's better to give it a go.

Anyway, you Lakers are playing by yourself. If you slow down, we will recoil. Don’t care if this can disrupt your rhythm. I have to let the team play the game according to the habits they are familiar with, instead of following these gangs The Los Angeles people also slowed down, and then were killed a little bit by the opponent's tactics.

Stabbing someone with a soft knife does not have any harsh and vicious feeling, but Rivers also knows that being stabbed by an opponent like this, even if he does not die, he can still be skinned by the opponent, which is more uncomfortable than death.

If you have to follow the rhythm of the opponent, the Celtics must be the last to fall. In the 3 minutes just now, he was passive and let the "Zen Master" lead him by the nose for a long time. Now he doesn't want to continue this situation.

"I don't care what method you use, anyway, the opponent's basket is the only target! Give me a hard hit on those bastards! If they can maintain a [-]% shooting rate, then we are unlucky! If they don't have God's help , then hammer this damn city of angels to pieces!"

It's not that Rivers wants to make the guys under him go crazy, it's just that he knows that if he continues to grind with the Lakers in such a slow manner, both the players and himself will be played to death by the "Zen Master".

Since the old guy's triangle offense has allowed the Lakers to maintain the most stable sense of balance, what the Celtics can do now is to smash this damn balance for him!

It's your place anyway, Bostonians don't make good guests...
