Jim Bass Ambition

Chapter 47
Generally speaking, the basket is the center's battlefield. Beating opponents in the low post and putting the ball into the basket with a higher success rate is the self-cultivation of a qualified center.

In the traditional era of offense where the inside is king, apart from the Pistons' Purgatory Butcher, Elephant Bill Lambiel, and Seattle's famous dancer Jack Sikoma, no center will use three-pointers as their own offensive means.Even Nowitzki is often criticized as a softie by those who understand football.

Sikoma self-deprecatingly said that he lacks low post singles ability and can only rely on flexibility and technology to score points away from the basket.As for Lambiel, many people think that if he is as "tough" on offense as he is on defense, he may not be able to play five seasons in the league.

Since entering the Lakers training camp, a dark force has prompted Okur to practice his three-pointers continuously. The reason is that in group confrontations, Okur often has to face the baptism of O'Neal. The best way is to Shoot away from him, and that shark isn't going to swim out of the rim anyway.

Okuben thought that his kite-playing style would be opposed by the coach, but unexpectedly, the coaching staff sent a trainer and arranged a separate training program for himself.It is said that this is a suggestion from the young assistant Stevens.

So when Okur appeared in a familiar position, received a pass from Mason, and there were no defenders within a three-meter radius, all the Lakers players and staff believed that the ball was safe.

The Turkish anti-aircraft artillery fired calmly (river crab), hit a three-pointer with precision strikes, and the Lakers overtook the score.

On the Spurs side, Charles Smith continued to get wide-open shots, and Mason didn't even look at him, focusing on Duncan.

Smith, who has no confidence in his shooting, chooses to rush to the basket piled up with five big men.

With a height of 1 meters and not very good physical fitness, it is determined that Charles Smith's impact on the inside of the Lakers is doomed to fail. O'Neal will not allow anyone to challenge his territory, let alone an inconspicuous man like Smith. small role.

The shark was in place in one step, slapping Charles Smith's layup like a fly, hitting Smith out of bounds.Smith, who fell to the ground, and the mighty O'Neill, formed a strange and indescribable picture.

In the next round, Kobe, eager to break the scoring drought, faced Smith's loose defense and chose to pull up a three-pointer. Unfortunately, he was unlucky. Smith, who was on the verge of collapse, directly cast a non-stick shot under the ignorance of the Lakers.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Popovich hurriedly replaced the embarrassed Charles Smith and replaced him with Antonio Daniels.

O'Neal continued to single Robinson in the low post, while Duncan took care of Okur from outside the three-point line at 45 degrees on the weak side.

The general blocked the direction of the baseline and tried to force O'Neal to turn in the direction of Duncan, and O'Neal did exactly what he envisioned.

Duncan immediately took back two steps and interfered with O'Neill.

O'Neill is not a reckless man. Seeing that he successfully attracted double-teams, he passed the ball to Okur outside the three-point line in time.

The pass was a little low, and Okur made some adjustments before shooting a three-pointer. Duncan's help defense had already arrived.

Okur missed a hasty three-pointer, Robinson took the defensive rebound and found guard Parker.

Facing his idol in France, Bruce Bowen, the small sports car was not soft on its hands and feet, and accelerated on the floor, leaving all the defenders including Bowen far behind. Facing the empty Lakers penalty area, Parker Choose to attempt a one-handed tomahawk split.

It's a pity that he didn't step on the right step, and the take-off point was farther than expected. This chic and elegant battle ax slashed hard at the front of the basket.

Bowen rushed back to the basket, picked up the dropped basketball, looked at Parker who lost his balance and fell to the ground with pity, and passed the ball to Kobe who came back to meet him.

After a few passes, Okur hit his second three-pointer and the Lakers took a 22-17 lead temporarily. The first quarter ended after Daniels missed a three-pointer at halftime in a gambling style.

The on-site editor was not idle, and edited together Charles Smith's clumsy breakthrough cap and big gap, and Parker's unforgettable human Tomahawk essence. It was played in a loop on the screen, and joyful laughter rang out from the scene.

In the second quarter of the game, both sides sent in a rotation lineup, the general and Duncan were replaced, and the Spurs sent Malik Rose, who was only a little over 2 meters tall but weighed nearly 260 pounds.

Popovich was also helpless, the seemingly powerful insider of the Spurs, in addition to the Twin Towers, only Rose was a reliable substitute, so that he did not dare to use it when Mason bullied Steve Smith. Ross went to fight violence with violence.

He is partnered with Amar McCaskill, a member of the 96 Golden Generation, who is 2 meters tall and weighs only a little over 11 kilograms.The remaining three are the famous Blazers, Terry Porter who is now on the verge of retirement, the fake Kobe who was given up by the Wizards and the Lakers successively-Laron Proffit, and Antonio Daniels.

The Lakers sent a combination of Chris Anderson and Gaben Wallace, plus Stephen Jackson, Richmond and Mike James.

Although the talent is not very good, Malik Rose is hardworking and desperate, and he has practiced some good skills under the influence of Duncan and the general every day.

When Chris Anderson faced Rose, he suffered a big loss in the first round. The young bird, who was underweight and liked to block shots, was sent flying by Rose's fake action and lost a foul.Rose got under Anderson and carried him for a layup.

Not only did Anderson fail to prevent the strong Rose from scoring a layup, but he also fell from the plane and lay on the ground for a long time before getting up.

Rose also made a free throw, narrowing the point difference to only two points.

Stephen Jackson obviously came up with a mission. After Rosega made a free throw, Jackson quickly passed the ball to veteran Richmond, and then rushed to the frontcourt by himself. Proffitt left behind.

As one of the cores of the RUN-TMC era, Richmond is quite familiar with this kind of fast-paced offense and defense, that is, his legs and feet are not flexible in his old age, and he can't keep up with the boys' back and forth running, but the routine is still clear.

Facing the defense of his old opponent Terry Porter, Richmond did not stick the ball too much, and passed the ball to Jackson who had already run near the Spurs three-point line.

Stephen Jackson didn't hesitate, and directly hit the iron with a three-pointer.

Malik Rose had the advantage when facing Anderson, while on the other side, the 96th-level second-round pick McCaskill was completely unable to withstand the impact of the draft pick Ben Wallace, and McCaskill was like a bamboo pole. Wallace failed to seize a favorable position in the card position and was held back for half a quarter. Wallace, who was out of the cage, took the offensive rebound over his head.

Wallace passes the ball to Richmond, who has rushed to the frontcourt.

The Rock, as it has been doing for more than a decade, went up and down three-pointers.
