I just play ball

Chapter 315
On the Lakers bench, D'Antoni held a tactical board with a melancholy face.

The team's offense and defense can be said to be no problem, but now they are in great trouble. It is clear that the referee needs to control the field after receiving the death order. He cannot let the game that the public expects go to waste early. Make a decision.

Most of the people understood the reason, but didn't know what to do for a while, and the atmosphere fell into silence.

After a while, D'Antoni sighed slightly, and said: "Then Kobe and Iguodala will be on the court at the same time, and Lee will hold the ball to ensure our offensive firepower. The defensive end will depend on the situation and try to avoid fouls."

The so-called avoiding fouls as much as possible means avoiding physical contact as much as possible to reduce the probability of being called a foul.

With such an arrangement, the meaning is simple and clear, and it is deliberately released on the defensive end, regardless of how much the Warriors can grasp.

Kobe shook his head helplessly, got up and walked to the court.

Li Yue followed closely behind, lamenting in his heart that after the new president came to power, the number of moth incidents in the game has increased visible to the naked eye, and the encouragement of offense has reached a heinous level. If it continues, the NBA may become a sissy sport. , the audience may be happy to see the scoring feast at first, but after a long time, they will definitely find it boring.

Because from the Colosseum to WWE performances, human beings have always liked to watch confrontation, even if it is a performance confrontation. This is something written in human genes. The direction of NBA reform should consider how to improve the competitive level of weak teams.

Encouraging offense and creating suspense is the first step for Xiao Hua's team to increase ratings, but the reason for the low ratings is not too few points and too strong defense, but because there are few stars or the level is too low, like the Pistons playing Spurs in 05 There are few people, and many people watched the Celtics play the Lakers in 10 years. It was also a defensive battle, which is enough to explain the problem.

As long as the game is exciting, even if the final score is 2 to 3, it doesn't matter. The various measures now can be said to be desperate.

After complaining in my heart, the whistle to continue the game just sounded, and the Warriors also changed their lineup significantly.

The free throw was executed first, and the audience booed wildly. Crawford hit the iron on the first shot, and stumbled into the Nets on the second free throw.

The Lakers attack, Kobe catches the ball and advances in the backcourt, and Clay starts to block the left and right from the center line.

Seeing this, Gobert raised his hand and wanted to set up a wall as a cover, but Kobe shook his head and waved his hands to signal to go away.

This was a one-on-one fight, and Li Yue also retreated to the sideline, leaving all the space from the top of the arc to the basket.

The audience stood up and cheered. Kobe bowed down and lowered the center, changed hands twice in a row, and then changed direction with one hand before touching the body. , An emergency stop to take off and a mid-range shot.

The basketball hits the hoop and into the net.

The Lakers retreated to defense, spontaneously put up a 23-weak zone defense formation, and temporarily gave up physical contact. Although the confrontation intensity decreased, the blockade of the shooting area still existed, but Curry shared it with all the Warriors.

Curry parked the ball on the right wing, watched and waited for a moment, asked Kobe with the help of a cover, stopped and took off with one dribble, and rushed to make a shot against Iguodala who was flying to change defenses. The two did not have any form of physical contact.

when!Smashing baskets and striking iron.

Covington caught the rebound and passed it to Li Yue nearby, and the Lakers launched a counterattack.

The warriors retreated very quickly, so they had to attack from the ground.

After thinking for a while, Li Yue also raised his hand to signal to open the space, and also adopted a singles strategy.

It will take a little more effort, but at least block the referee's whistle, and without cover will reduce the possibility of fouls a lot.

He hesitated and started to try, and Barnes moved his center of gravity to the left almost instantly. It took about half a second to adjust his posture and take off after counting the inertia, but he only needed 0.3 seconds to collect the ball and take off.

Make up your mind and do it now.

Barnes tried to block the block with all his strength, and it slapped his arm, and the referee ignored it.

The basketball hit the circle and went into the net, and the Lakers scored another three points.

The Warriors attacked and Curry took the ball to the right wing.

After many difficult passes and complicated moves, Clay caught the ball and forced a shot against Iguodala. The two also had no physical contact. The basketball hit the basket and fell. Gobert caught it and the Lakers launched a counterattack.

Kobe stood still on the left waist, with his back against Clay, and raised his right hand for the ball.

Li Gao throws a pass, and walks leisurely to the right with a 45-degree akimbo to watch in small steps, leaving a large space to take away the threat of assisting defense. The other three teammates follow suit one after another. .

I saw that Kobe's left foot was the axis, and his right foot was stepping up and testing frequently. There was no elbow lifting or elbow resting, only the purest shaking.

Even so, after adjusting his pace a few times, Clay also fell into a state of panic, completely passive in his movements.

At the moment when Clay rushed forward to grab space, Kobe took the opportunity to turn back, dribbled the ball with his left hand to the baseline, kicked off the ground with two consecutive strides, and hit the rebound to shoot against O'Neal, his posture was picturesque.

boom!The basketball bounces into the net.

Li Yue clapped his hands to celebrate. In fact, there was another penalty, but the referee didn't blow his whistle.

The Warriors attacked, Curry took the ball to the top of the arc, patted and waited on the spot.

At the same time, Clay ran along the bottom line, stopped and changed lanes several times, all of which were seen through by Iguodala.

But the tactical rules could not be changed. Clay rushed to the short corner on the right, and with the help of Barnes and David Lee to cover, he abruptly got rid of Iguodala. Unfortunately, as soon as he received a pass from Curry, Li Yue called out to Curry. Winton teamed up to double-team.

This teaming up was very sudden. After all, the previous two rounds were single defenses. Clay hurriedly jumped up and scored the ball toward the baseline, but before Barnes reached his expected position, the basketball flew out of bounds.

The referee blew his whistle to call a violation, and the Lakers got the ball in the backcourt. The central large screen showed a video of Clay trying to change lanes several times, which made the audience laugh out loud.

The Lakers attacked, and Li Yue deliberately ran to the bottom line on the right to settle. Seeing that Kobe dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, he decisively used the screen to move up.Without raising his hand or shouting, Kobe passed the ball tacitly. He received the ball and turned his back to single-handedly hit Barnes.

Perhaps Clay's failed defensive case has just been shown. Barnes did not adopt the traditional top defense, but put forward after blocking. As long as Li Yue turns forward, David Lee can move laterally to interfere, and O'Neal can cover the defense head-on. .

Li Yue chuckled, pulled the ball back half a step, 'Nowitzki'-style golden rooster was independent, and shot back two points.

The basketball rises high, flies like a predetermined function, and falls into the net accurately and hollowly.

Loud cheers erupted from the Staples Center, and the audience fully understood that even the referee could not stop Li Yue and Kobe from scoring.

The Lakers' lead expanded to an astonishing extent. Mark Jackson reluctantly asked for a timeout, but the timeout did not bring about a qualitative change for the Warriors.
