Basketball myth

Chapter 142 Super Team Lakers

The Lakers, who got two days off, ushered in a key battle in Phoenix!It is also a battle that must be won!This is the greatest respect for a player who has fought all his life!It is also the best way for the Lakers to fulfill their promises!
"The Suns are also a team with point guards as the main body! It can be said that it is a replica of the Sonics! Kidd can be regarded as a good inheritance of Payton's skills! However, he is not so good now. Mature! Hmm! Whether it is assists or defense! Not as strong as Payton!"

"However, we can't underestimate him! The shortest of the Suns is 193 centimeters, and the tallest is only 208 centimeters! It can be said that there is no completely clear player. Except for Kidd, anyone else can be replaced! Kidd has been replaced, and the way of scoring has been changed! We still need to control the tempo today! We need to slow down the tempo! Hill, you come to meet this old friend for a while today! You are also old enemies!"

"Barkley, you are the main player today! I want you to teach this rookie forward, McDyess, a good lesson! Tell him that the NBA is very dangerous! It doesn't just have to be bouncing!"

"O'Neal, it's still a triangle offense. This time it's your cooperation with Kobe. Hill's more experience is in defense! I want you to cooperate well to play a triangle offense. And Fisher, you, the three of you The offensive formation, let other people take a look! How strong is our strength!"

Game start!O'Neill jumped the ball successfully!
Fisher took the ball forward, and Kidd came over to defend!Fisher didn't stop either, and passed directly to Hill's hands. Facing the opponent's defense, Hill made a breakthrough and easily passed, and then handed the ball to Barkley before McDyess defended. Easy slam dunk success!
Kidd quickly received the pass and wanted to speed up the pace of the game, but Fisher followed him closely!From the moment Kidd receives the ball, Fisher's defense has already begun! "You don't need to defend his pass, just slow him down!"

Fisher completed the task assigned by Thomas very well!
After halftime, the Lakers' defense was even more targeted. Kidd, you can shoot three-pointers as you like, but breaking through for a layup is not so easy!You can attack by yourself, but you cannot organize an attack!

The way all Lakers players defend is to defend an area alone!No matter how your players walk or how they move, there will always be a player following you and interfering with you!Kidd is also the first time facing such a defense!
Faced with this situation, Kidd has only two ways. The first is to attack alone. When it comes to having to defend him, the Lakers' defense naturally collapses!It's a pity that Kidd looked at O'Neal and then shook his head in denial!

Compared with such a prehistoric monster?forget it!
The second one is even more unreliable!Just give the ball to an inside player and let him serve as the fulcrum!Be more casual!What's even more pity is that the current Suns don't have such a player!
Therefore, Kidd had no choice but to try both!
The first ball was given to McDyess, a potential power forward acquired from the Nuggets!Um!It was the center of the Spurs, the center of the Pistons who replaced Big Ben, and now the famous jumper!

He is now in the third year of his career, averaging 15+7 per game, under the leadership of Kidd!Um!This is not to praise him!The average shot is about 12 times per game. Under Kidd's leadership, that's how it is!Um!I can only say that he does not match Kidd!

So tragedy happened!Barkley found the target of bullying, and the game only lasted 5 minutes, and the number of turnovers by McDyess has reached an astonishing 4!It really perfectly fulfilled the essence of my own spy!
The offense of other Suns players is even more unreliable!The current Suns have not yet found the cornerstone of their victory, and have not fully become a team!You must know that the current head coach of the Suns is Danny Ainge!The manager who made a plan to win the three giants to form the Celtics' first championship in the 21st century!

Perfect, faithful Celtic diehard!Danny Ainge is a great manager, but he's not a great coach!Or Kidd is in his hands, hmm!Somewhat delayed!
In other words, his heart is still on the side of the Celtics!A kid who was dumped by the Celtics is out looking for a chance to get back!
Without the ability to score directly inside, Kidd's assists are even more restricted, and he can't resist O'Neal's impact on defense!
There is no better way for the Suns to defend or attack!Danny Angie was an active running defender in the Celtics era, and Larry Bird was still in charge of organizing!You want him to find a way for Kidd?hehe!Can't do it!

What do you want him to do?Um!Replaced by Nash, does he have the courage?Then the only option is Kevin Johnson, who is about to be traded!

Um!In the 5th minute, the Suns replaced Kevin Johnson!
Is this Johnson's solo?No!How could Thomas let Johnson increase his value, then this deal may fall through!You must know that even if Thomas loses this game, it is impossible to give up the chance to get a point guard star!Although the star is about to retire!

Kevin's playing has completed the task of organizing the team's offense very well!The Suns' offense began to improve, and the scores of the Lakers began to rise alternately!It's a pity that the Suns have no way to stop the Lakers' offense. The reason why the inside is king in the NBA has always existed!O'Neal's dominance in the interior has reached a peak!
The era of the four major centers has now become the era of O'Neal and Duncan!The other three are old!

Kevin Johnson doesn't have a good offensive method, he just relies on his own experience to drive the players' offense!But his physical strength and concentration can't concentrate the audience, the Lakers didn't give their best!It's just where O'Neill is attacking!

Coupled with the initial lag, the Suns had no way to catch up. Kidd and Johnson cooperated very well, but the inside players were really weak!If a team does not have a stable scoring inside, it is impossible to win, and Johns' running and jumping ability is really the worst time!
The Suns had already lost the game in the third quarter!

In fact, this game has ended since Kevin's appearance!Because O'Neill has fully played himself, and now O'Neill is extremely eager for honor!Especially the motivation that can fight Jordan!
Thomas overestimated the Suns' players and underestimated his own!To be honest, Thomas is very surprised by the strength of these Lakers players!I have a very thorough understanding of S-level players!
You know, in the original history, the Lakers had a ranking advantage. They did not encounter the Spurs and Rockets, but defeated the Trail Blazers and SuperSonics, which did not have a center that could stop O'Neal. Entered the Western Conference finals, and then sent the Jazz to the finals with a score of 4:0 without any interference!
The Jazz are very strong!It is against the twin towers like the Spurs and the team like the Rockets who are fighting for the championship!However, the Lakers shouldn't be so weak!A team with O'Neal failed to beat the Jazz in a single game?In fact, at that time, Silver Fox was already in danger of stepping down!
In the original history, Silver Fox constantly adjusted the main lineup. The Lakers only won the game against the Warriors in these 5 games after the All-Star break! 5 battles and 1 win!This is a great shame to the Lakers!

To be honest, the original Lakers team had many potential players, but the positions overlapped. O'Neal was not at the center of the strategy. O'Neal's offense was very difficult!He is a center forward, a player who needs to organize, give him when he needs it!Such a record leads to a very bad atmosphere for the players!The substitute player, that is, Horry, has been trained, and even a capable substitute like Barry is not reused!

After Thomas arrived, he quickly completed the main lineup of the Lakers, basically unchanged, and the most changed is the power forward position of Horry and Barkley!
