God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 258 Strong rebound
There's a reason NBA teams generally perform better at home.Home fans will unscrupulously interfere with the away team when the rules allow. The most common thing is to hit the inflatable stick behind the backboard when the opponent makes a free throw to interfere with the away team's free throw.Not to mention the boos and so on, as long as the away team player holds the ball, the boos can't stop at all.

This time the Lakers fans obviously came prepared. When the live DJ introduced the players of the visiting team, their boos made people feel that the loudspeaker in the Staples Center was broken, and the DJ's voice was completely drowned in the sound waves. among.However, as the DJ of the Lakers' home court, he doesn't care about these trivial matters, and he just reads the 76ers' roster casually and it's over.

When the game officially started, the 76ers players realized that the boos before the game were nothing more than pediatrics. Almost from the first second, as soon as they got the ball, the boos of the Lakers fans would instantly increase to a higher level. When the ball returned to the Lakers players, the boos quickly turned into cheers. Those who didn't know it thought someone was directing it!
Fortunately, at least three people in the starting lineup were not affected by the booing. One was Mutombo. What hasn't happened to the veteran who has been in the league for many seasons?Such boos are nothing more than drizzle; the second is Snow, he is the most stable one in the starting lineup, otherwise Brown would not let him serve as the captain of the team; the last one is Iverson, his Personality is not afraid of the sky, the boos of the fans may be his stimulant.

Even so, the 76ers' offense is a little weak, because the players who don't play well include Lewis, an important firepower point on the outside.Although he was no longer the cowardly character he was when he first came here, he was always timid and afraid to accept the challenge, but he was still a little guilty in the face of overwhelming boos, and naturally he couldn't grasp the strength of his shots.

There is still a certain difference between nervousness and guilty conscience, as long as you can see the strength of your hands.Most people who are nervous will involuntarily increase the strength in their hands, while those with a guilty conscience will not exert so much strength in their hands. Lewis's first three shots all hit the front of the basket, and it was obvious that he was booed so weakly.In fact, this is no wonder to him. With his own psychological quality, at the moment of shooting, he suddenly heard an enhanced version of booing in his ears, and the strength of his shot was not enough when he trembled.

On the other hand, the Lakers, who were playing at home, quickly entered the state under the cheers of the fans. This time Kobe learned his lesson. He didn't dare to concentrate all the ball in his hands. He also kept observing his teammates while breaking through. The position, ready to send assists after double-teaming.Needless to say, O'Neal, this inside behemoth actually passes the ball a lot, and he is more likely to attract double-teams. At this time, as long as he can send the ball out, he can get an assist in all likelihood.

Just halfway through the first quarter, the 76ers were beaten 18 to 7 by their opponents, which surprised Brown. He didn't expect the Lakers to be so much stronger after returning to the home court, but maybe the 76ers suddenly became unaccustomed , so it fell behind by double digits in an instant.Now the worst performer on the field is undoubtedly Lewis. Brown thought about what he said in the locker room before the game, gritted his teeth and replaced Lewis with Hill, and let the latter sit on the bench to calm down first. Let's talk about it.

It stands to reason that replacing Lewis will make the 76ers' offense worse, but Lewis' shooting was greatly affected before, and it doesn't matter if he replaces Hill without scoring a point.Hill's psychological quality is much better than that of Lewis, and he is a tough guy inside player. He only needs to do the same job as Mutombo, and there are not too many requirements for the opponent's feeling.Even so, the 76ers' scoring responsibility is still entirely on Iverson, and now they can only rely on him to charge forward. Snow can at most provide him with a catch point on the outside, and it will be difficult for him to help score points.

Although Hill's interior defense is relatively strong and limits Grant very well, Kobe and O'Neal don't need Grant as a transfer point for the time being. They only need to use all their scoring methods.

Because the main scoring points of the 76ers' rotation lineup are young people, so Brown did not dare to play routines such as five-up and five-down. Press the lineup, otherwise, with the crazy boos of the Lakers fans now, if all of them are on the bench, wouldn't they be directly delivering food to the opponent?That's not how undercover is done.

Even so, at the end of the first quarter, the 76ers were still behind 22 to 31. 22 points in a single quarter was their lowest record this season. Scored 22 points. Except for Lewis' poor touch, everyone else's performance is quite satisfactory. It can only be attributed to the terrible home court of the Lakers.

When Brown was laying out tactics, Lewis was a little distracted by the side. Although the voices of the Lakers fans are much quieter than before, he still subconsciously felt his ears buzzing.Thinking of the sudden surge of boos when he shot, Lewis couldn't help but feel palpitations. Could it be that he would have a heart attack if he continued to play like this?
Suddenly Lewis felt that someone was pushing him, took a look, and saw that Snow was winking at him, before Lewis could react, Brown asked angrily: "Rashad, did you hear what I said just now?" ?”

Lewis' face suddenly turned pale, and he stammered, "No...no..."

Brown sighed resentfully, and said: "We need your shots in the second quarter, don't worry about the boos of the fans anymore, you run me open on the field, and others will send the ball to you. What you have in your hand, all you have to do is throw the ball into the damn basket for me, understand? If you can’t do it, you don’t want to play in this game!”

Lewis nodded quickly. He thought that the head coach would keep him on the bench for this game. It would be good if he could play himself.But after thinking about it, the Lakers fans will not be indifferent when he shoots the ball later. The boos can stop the heart. If he fails to make another shot, wouldn't he have to sit on the bench for the whole game?
However, he suddenly saw Chang Wei blinking at him. Lewis has always considered Chang Wei to be his nobleman. What does it mean to blink at this time?Could he still have a way to block himself from the interference of boos?
