the great gatsby

Chapter 563 The general trend!

"Get up, hurry up!" The experts clenched their fists, watched the game with wide eyes, and silently cheered for the bulls, but...it seemed useless?
Of course, there is no use for eggs. If ideas were useful, this would have become a mythical world long ago.

Under the leadership of Gatsby, the Lakers steadily expanded their advantage step by step. Jeremy Lin was controlled by Gatsby, and he could only occasionally find an open shot, but he couldn't do it if he wanted to drive the whole team. Germany, Butler and others can only attack like stragglers, and occasionally pass a beautiful pass, but this does not change the overall situation. The Lakers have already controlled the general situation!

The experts can see that what the Lakers are good at is not the Knicks and Golden State Warriors who have unparalleled scoring power. It is field control, controlling your own rhythm, and at the same time controlling the opponent's rhythm, slowly grinding the opponent's flesh and blood with offense and defense like a millstone.

The Lakers played steadily, and when the game ended, the Lakers still beat the Bulls by 21 points. This rhythm made the Bulls desperate. This is a situation that you can't get rid of no matter how hard you struggle.

Zhang Weiping, the commentator of Tencent Sports, used a very Chinese saying: "The Lakers have reached the state of combining rigidity and softness. They are not as rigid as the Thunder, nor as feminine as the Spurs. This is the realm of Tai Chi. It can be both hard and soft, it wraps the opponent in it, rub it and rub it to win the game!"

Director Zhang's words are too metaphysical, but the Lakers do have this tendency.

The Lakers have won ten consecutive victories, but they have not stopped. There are two games left in the Eastern Conference, one is the Atlanta Hawks and the other is the Orlando Magic. The Hawks are a very strong opponent. The Lakers are still in a passive situation. The Lakers won the No. 11 consecutive victories.

In the last game of the Eastern Conference, the Orlando Magic were led by Vucevic and had potential newcomers such as Oladipo, Fournier, Payton, and Aaron Gordon, but their strength was too weak. I couldn't handle the Lakers at all, and was bloodbathed by the Lakers for 36 points. This was not done by Gatsby, but by Jokic with a group of substitutes.

The overwhelming strength of the Lakers has finally caused a tremor in the league. Now they are defeated by strong teams such as the Bulls, Knicks, Eagles, and Rockets. Although the Spurs, Clippers, Golden State Warriors, and Thunder have not yet played against each other, but Obviously the Lakers are good enough to be their opponents.

The Zijin giant has awakened again!

The recent glory of the Lakers is still in the two seasons of 08-10, only a few years ago, and now they are about to rise again. Is the Lakers going to dominate again?

This kind of speculation makes many teams feel uneasy. The Lakers have too deep foundation. Once they get a superstar, they can rise in an instant. The greed of the Bass family for the championship is endless. Just let them see Hopefully, they will dare to spend real money in it. Who told Los Angeles to be so rich?

The Lakers team ended their trip to the East and returned to Los Angeles covered in wind, sand and snow. After all, Los Angeles is still warmer. Gatsby is relieved to return to Los Angeles. Even though he has been fighting for so many years, he is still more comfortable at home. Some.

After returning to Los Angeles, the Lakers could rest for two days. Two days later, they faced the challenge of the Oklahoma City Thunder. Although the Thunder lost Bosh, the growth of Westbrook made the Thunder greatly increase in strength. Although Westbrook He has great flaws, but for a person who can average close to a triple-double per game, no matter what flaws he has, his own strength cannot be ignored.

With the addition of Waiters, Adams, Kanter, and Robertson who are all growing up rapidly, the Thunder's strength has risen instead of falling. Not to mention other teams, the Spurs are very jealous of the Thunder anyway, because the Thunder's temperament is horizontal. Turtle Westbrook, rather indomitable, is known for his tough head in the league.

Durant plays horizontally and attacks indiscriminately. Anyone who comes is misplaced. One-handed long-range shots and mid-range shots that cannot be blocked make opponents want to die.

Young and strong, rampant, reckless and arrogant, unreasonable, this is the Thunder.

The Thunder is a guest in Los Angeles, a super battle between super teams, which has caused countless people to watch the game, whether it is the Spurs or the Clippers, they all want to know how far the Lakers have reached. If the Lakers only attracted Deron, Gasol , Joe Johnson and other veterans, the Lakers won't get so many people's attention, the most important thing is Gatsby's vision!
With Gatsby around, this Lakers team will be so suspicious.

Experts' prediction before the game is that the Thunder will defeat the Lakers, because the Lakers are like the Spurs. They may not be able to keep up with the Thunder. Once the Thunder rushes, it will be a thunderbolt. If the Lakers want to stop the Thunder, it will be very difficult. Disaster!
The only flaw of the Lakers now is that they are slow. They try to make the slow pace their own advantage, but there is no doubt that the Lakers can't get up fast.

This is the key to the Thunder defeating the Lakers. Once the Thunder defeats the Lakers in this way, the next Lakers will face the common target of all teams. Of course, some teams have the ability, and some teams have no such ability at all. But it is necessary to have a caring person!

The Thunder's visit, the Lakers attach great importance to it. First, everyone is a Western Conference team, and they are likely to meet in the playoffs. Any psychological advantage is a bit reasonable. Second, the Lakers still have their own style of play. Doubtful, after all, the trend of the entire league is speeding up, but the Lakers are slowing down. Although the Lakers have won 12 consecutive victories, they have not really met a team like the Thunder. If they do, they can win ?

Jim Iron didn't know that his talent was actually that of a top assistant coach. It would actually be difficult for him to be the head coach. Fortunately, the team had tactical geniuses like Gatsby and Deron, both starting and rotating. He doesn't need to worry too much, the rest can be executed according to tactics.

Gatsby also has no confidence in winning. The game is not just about offense. The Lakers' problem lies in defense. When the Thunder play fast breaks without thinking, whether the Lakers can keep up is the key.

But Gatsby won't worry too much, the storms and waves are coming, if it's not enough, then do it yourself!

The game has not yet started, and Los Angeles has become the place where many eyes are focused. The tongues manipulated by the league have begun to create momentum for this battle. As the saying goes, those who eat melons are not afraid of big things. The final is even more grand, as if it has already been related to the life and death of the two teams of the Lakers and Thunder. It is too exaggerated to say that whoever loses this game will have a worrying future, but in terms of building momentum, the alliance's means have succeeded!
War is imminent!
