NBA: Destroying Irving in the opening field

Chapter 142 The Small Lineup Showdown!
Stevenson nodded, obviously everyone's reaction was also what he expected.

"Okay, then in the second half we will adopt a double-team tactic, but if Wang Hao has the possibility of receiving the ball, Marcus (Smart), you and Jay Lun will defend him together."

"We played a small lineup in the second half, Morris played the five position, Jason (Tatum), you played the four position."

"Do you understand everything?!"

Stevenson stared brightly,

"clear!!!"

More than a dozen big men stood up one after another, gathered together, and responded loudly.

　
On the Lakers side, it was a scene of laughter and laughter.

In essence, they still regard themselves as "downward dogs" and do not have the arrogance of being number one in the West.

Therefore, facing the Celtics at the top of the Eastern Conference, being able to take the lead at halftime is already something to be happy about.

Of course, there was one person who thought otherwise.

While everyone was laughing, Wang Hao drank Gatorade silently, trying to replenish his physical strength.

[Mad Dog Mode] After turning it off, he hasn't felt the overdraft of his body for a long time.

The last time I had this feeling of "kidney overdraft" was in the bed of a certain actress in her previous life.

The picture flashed in his mind, and Wang Hao couldn't help thinking, can the explosive power brought by this [Mad Dog Mode] be used in life?

He tried asking the system in his head, but the system ignored it.

Wang Hao gave up helplessly and began to think about his plans for the second half.

Seeing Wang Hao's silence, the other players gradually became quiet.

"Well, everyone calm down, we still have the second half to fight, now is not the time to celebrate." Wharton said in a timely manner.

He was actually a little upset to see the players relax in advance.

When Walton was a player and Kobe was on the court, it was impossible for this to happen.

If someone started to slack off before the halftime break, Naga might serve him with murderous eyes.

Wang Hao hasn't reached that level of qualifications yet, but he has a faint feeling of not being angry and self-important.

Although he didn't say a word just now, the teammates still couldn't ignore his existence and quickly controlled their emotions.

"In the second half, the opponent is likely to target Wang Hao. We need to continue to increase our outside firepower."

Wharton made two gestures on the tactical whiteboard, and continued: "So in the second half, we will change the formation, Kyle (Kuzma), you start for Julius (Randall)."

Both of them are still newcomers, so they accepted without any conflict.

"Okay, kids, keep up the intensity in the second half!" Walton walked to the middle of the locker room and stretched out his hand.

The generals of the Lakers responded immediately, folded their hands together, and said in unison:
"Let's go LAKERS!"

　
The break is over and the game continues.

Both sides switched to small lineups in the second half. This situation immediately attracted the attention of the host:
"Director Su, can you analyze the intentions of both parties for me?" Ke Fan asked.

Easy side to fight again, the Celtics took the lead in attacking.

Irving held the ball for halftime and continued to face Pope's defense.

Wang Hao switched defenses against Tatum, leaving Brown to Yingge.

He calculated it during the intermission, and now he has 18 points, and the three on the opposite side have a total of 25 points.

This is already a good defense, but Wang Hao is not satisfied.

He roughly estimated that only by completely restricting two of them would it be possible to complete this task.

If he goes to defend Irving, the latter's scoring may be reduced a lot, but it will definitely consume a lot of energy, and his offensive end will also be affected.

In this case, as long as one of the two Tanhuas broke out, the task would basically be gone.

But if there is only Owen's firepower, Wang Hao is still confident that he will win the duel.

Ever since, he told Ingram thousands of times before going on the court, telling him to keep an eye on Brown and leave the rest alone.

With Yingge's physical talent, defending Brown with all his strength, the effect is pretty good.

Wang Hao himself stares at Tatum to death, and then as long as he beats Owen by Biao points, it is enough.

Sure enough, Owen chose to attack himself in the first attack.

A flower-piercing butterfly step made Pope retreat steadily, and then followed by a sudden retreat step.

Facing an opponent who lost his center of gravity, Owen raised his sword and scored three points for the team.

Yes, as soon as the second half started, Uncle Drew went online again.

Pope was a little embarrassed, and quickly raised his hand to indicate that it was his own problem.

In the transition between offense and defense, Wang Hao quickly started to move.

But he found out that he was being targeted!

Whether Daluo or Kuzma pick and roll for themselves, the Green Army players they are facing must adopt the strategy of assisting in double-teaming without hesitation.

Wang Hao managed to throw Smart half a step away, and he would be delayed by Morris or Tatum immediately, without giving him a chance to catch the ball.

Wang Hao reacted very quickly, he activated [Reverse misdirection], and began to enhance his sense of existence.

After opening, he ran two more laps around the baseline, and then the funny thing happened.

I saw Morris and Tatum gave up their opponents one after another, and began to follow Wang Hao around.

They seemed to have no other Lakers players in their eyes, and they didn't even bother to care where the ball was. They only knew to stare at Wang Hao.

Owen and Smart, who were far away from them, were both surprised and confused.

But the vacancy inside had to be filled, otherwise the opponent could go up to the basket, so they had to defend Pope and Ingram and shrink the three-second zone.

Wang Hao saw the timing, and immediately passed the ball the moment Ingram passed the ball.

He seems to be just a transfer station, responsible for "refracting" the ball out.

Pope received the ball from the outside, and there was no one within two meters.

He even has time to dribble the ball, as an adjustment, and then release slowly.

As soon as Pope made a shot, Kuzma raised his hand to celebrate.

After all, it is an invincible big space. For a shooter like the criminal mamba, isn't it a piece of cake?
"Bang!"

The ball hit the rim hard.

Kuzma's smile froze, he withdrew his hand in embarrassment, pretended nothing happened, and began to return to defense.

The goal was not scored, and coach Walton was also very annoyed.

The opponent's defensive rotation was completely disrupted by Wang Hao, and the gaps created were so outrageous, why not make it? !

This is very demoralizing, and it will also make the opponent more determined to double-team Wang Hao's strategy.

Pope also blamed himself very much, and quickly rushed back to his own half.

Knowing his shame and then being brave, he defended Owen very hard this time, almost putting all his energy into it.

"Popper's defense in this round is vaguely Wang Hao's demeanor. Director Su, could it be that the Lakers have hired a powerful defensive assistant? Why are they defending so fiercely?" Ke Fan couldn't help wondering.

After hearing this, Su Qun couldn't help laughing, and said, "I don't think so. There is a high probability that Pope is in a hurry. This kind of defense needs to be handed over. It's like a mad dog. Why don't you just highlight the word 'spelling'."

Ke Fan also laughed, and continued: "Then other Lakers players should defend like this. After all, the boss of the team defends so hard, how dare others be lazy?"

Su Qun shook his head: "Not everyone is Wang Hao, just like back then, not everyone was Kobe."

　
Back in the game, Pope's defense achieved good results.

Irving was forced to take the ball, and Morris made a low turn-around jumper, the iron went wide, and Daluo grabbed the rebound.

Wang Hao stretched out his hand to ask for the ball. At the same time, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and found that Pope had already played quickly after the successful defense!

"Come!"

Wang Hao waved.

Da Luo hurriedly passed the ball, and Wang Hao caught it with one hand.

The next moment, a stream of air was hovering in his hand, like Naruto's spiral pill.

Wang Hao pushed with one hand, and the basketball spun terrifyingly, like a cannonball, passing through several players and flying forward!
