Jim Bass Ambition

Chapter 404 Zhan Lubu

If it was a stereotypical coach like Jeff Van Gundy or Larry Brown, or a coach like Gregg Popovich or Jerry Sloan who paid great attention to team discipline, after Odom made this stupid mistake , will definitely replace him to calm down, but the current head coach of the Lakers is a mad scientist who has never taken an unusual path. He just called Odom to the sidelines and briefly explained a few words.

Ariza was replaced. He was forced by James for two consecutive rounds. His thin body could not stop the little emperor with abnormal physical fitness.

Artest went into battle again and took on the heavy responsibility of man-marking James.

The Lakers did not adopt a defensive strategy of zone defense or double-teaming, but chose to lock up other Cavaliers players, forcing James and the league's top defender Ron Artest to continue to engage in exhausting singles, weakening James' organizational support ability to at the lowest limit.

Although the scene looked very lively, after James came back, the Cavaliers started to score again, but James’ physical exertion was very serious. In the second quarter, he completely relied on him to support the team on both ends of the offense and defense. In contrast, the Lakers, Wade and Kobe were on defense. On the offensive end, Artest just needs to stand in the bottom corner and wait for a three-pointer, saving even the effort of running. Garnett has slightly more tasks, but he also chooses a more labor-saving offensive end. High position support play.

At halftime, the Lakers led 58 to 51. Kobe had 13 points, Wade had 11 points, Billups and Garnett each scored 8 points, and the team scored very evenly. As for the Cavaliers, James scored 26 points and was the second leading scorer. It is Marshall's 7 points.

"I said, let's not try to emulate the Celtics back then, 'Michael Jordan can win stats, but we're going to take the game away', but now people remember Michael's 63 points and remember playing in his jersey. God, no one cares if the Celtics win or not, if LeBron James scores 50 points at Staples Center, I'll take care of the headlines after the game." Nicholson saw the above The performance of both sides in the half was not without worry and authenticity.

"LeBron fought alone and made a big fuss at Staples. It's an honor for him to lose tonight with his ball god?" Jim laughed.

"It's not so exaggerated, but the general idea is similar. I think you should go to the locker room to remind Coach Nelson, pay attention to the second half, and don't make the scene too ugly." Nicholson suggested.

"Interfering with the work of the head coach is not what a management should do. What I have to do now is to enjoy the game from the sidelines and then bring better players to the team." Jim does not intend to go to the locker room. After taking over as head coach, he never entered the home team's locker room during a game.

In Nicholson's uneasy mood, the second half of the game began.

James broke through with the ball, and this time it was Kobe who defended him.

Just as people habitually underestimate Jordan's strength, Kobe's physical fitness is often overshadowed by his gorgeous and exquisite offensive skills.

Back then, the leader of Joe's gang used his back to eat all the defensive players in the world. As strong as Anthony Mason, he had to stabilize his center of gravity to withstand Jordan's advance, and as fierce as Sean Kemp, after the two sides confronted in the air, he was tragically defeated. Knocked over to the ground, and Master Qiao landed firmly.

Today, Kobe has switched to playing small forward, with a weight of more than 100 kilograms. He fights against Artest in training every day. Even against a heavy striker like Pierce, he is not inferior in confrontation. James tried to force Kobe, but the result As soon as it came up, I was devastated.

Kobe did not use brute force like Artest, but chose to win by coincidence. When James' shoulder opened the way, he suddenly pulled back the stool, and at the same time cut the ball to James' thigh. Pop out of bounds.

On the offensive end, Wade took on the heavy responsibility of the blaster. Although the Cavaliers' zone defense seems to be tight, Donyell Marshall and Ilgauskas are both known for their slow movement and relatively average ability to protect the basket. Z is 2 meters tall, but he suffers from footwork and is often teased by small guards.

After the European breakthrough, the sudden slam dunk has become Wade's signature action. This time it was Marshall who became the background. He underestimated the explosive power and bullet speed of Wade's calf, which was full of gunpowder, and also underestimated With Wade's powerful confrontation ability, he was forcibly knocked away by Wade in the air and completed the dunk.

After the goal, Wade and James passed each other, chattering.

And the commentary on the sidelines has begun to shout loudly, "Kendrick, did you see it! This is for you!"

James attacked with the ball, Bryant and Artest's defensive strategies were completely different, and he also began to adjust his offensive methods.

Kobe blocked the middle and let James go to the bottom line to break through, while Artest let go of Marshall immediately and came to make up the defense.

Facing the double-teaming of the two first-defense players, James does not intend to force his way. There is Garnett waving his long arms under the basket. If he rushes to Ilgauskas, he may make a mistake. The only passing route is Long distance to find the empty Marshall.

Although a cross pass across the half court is a taboo on the court, James has the confidence to send such a ball. After he jumped up, under the interference of Artest and Kobe, he threw the ball vigorously towards Marshall with both hands.

But as soon as the ball left his hand, a figure in a golden jersey was activated, leaving Dajuan Wagner standing in the bottom corner.

"Oops..." James was in a bad mood. Wade had already stooped to steal the pass, dribbled the ball three times across the court, and scored with a one-handed dunk under the watchful eyes of the other nine players.

This round became the epitome of the third quarter. James repeatedly fell into the joint double-teaming of Kobe and Artest. Even Wade and Garnett became candidates to defend him in some rounds, and the overall defense of the Lakers It is not so easy to convert James' passes into assists.

On the offensive end, the Lakers bloomed more points, which made the Cavaliers' defense lose sight of one another. In a single quarter, the Lakers played a super attack wave of 32 to 13. James made 9 of 2 shots in this quarter, scored only 5 points, and sent 4 turnovers.

90比64，第四节变成了垃圾时间，詹姆斯的数据也锁定在了31分6篮板4助攻上面，湖人方面科比33分4篮板6助攻，韦德29分5抢断。

In the end, the Lakers beat the Cavaliers 119 to 89.

"LeBron James will undoubtedly become a superstar in the league, but if he wants to win a championship, he may have to plan his career in advance and make the right decisions that can help him win the championship. I believe he will You'll understand what I mean soon." After the game, in an interview, Jim specifically mentioned James, who lost to the Lakers today.
