Chapter 242 The Zen Master's Conspiracy

The layout of the Lakers was exactly as Adelman imagined. Odom was inseparable, staring at Totoro like a hanged ghost, surrounded by Kobe and Fisher. The first is to look at his defenders, but Totoro believes that as long as there is any trouble on his side, these two people will definitely rush over like sharks smelling blood. The point is that the Lakers are really cute to him today Take care.

In the past, Totoro would definitely try two first attacks with the ball. What's wrong with you having too many people?The young master just has the kind of momentum that although tens of thousands of people will do it, if you don't have that kind of momentum, don't play in the NBA?Alian and later Zhou Doddang are examples of this. They are not lacking in ability, and in terms of training attitude, they are not as good as they are, but they just can't do it. The reason is their self-confidence. Very inadequate.

But isn’t this what Shangfeng said today? Teammates are cheering.

And an ironic scene also appeared. Totoro was standing next to the sideline, and the three defenders from the Lakers actually followed the sideline. Calderon and Battier were completely stunned. Defensive players disappear? !

The situation in the half court was very different. Totoro played 4 against 2, and the other Rockets players played [-] against [-]. The problem is that the ball is not in the hands of Totoro, which is very interesting.

Teammates of the Rockets came up with an open space after three downs and two downs. In the end, Randolph easily scored with an empty basket under the basket.

"You can't fight like this!"

The Zen master hammered his palm heavily on the sidelines. Isn't this performing acrobatics?He explained that the whole team tried their best to encircle Totoro in this game, but they are not as defensive as you are, right?My Neighbor Totoro ran to the sideline to serve the ball, and the three of you still leaned over like gay kings. Do you really think the other four Rockets teammates are beanbags?

But then again, the Lakers are in really good form today. The loss in the first game sounded the alarm for them. Everyone's attitude has been corrected. The Lakers are really not weak this year, and they can win the championship in terms of lineup , It’s just that their big team has a problem, they always like to be superior to others, and they can commit the problem of underestimating the enemy when they meet any opponent. If they don’t give them two slaps, they really don’t know they are called the Los Angeles Lakers.

But once they are taught a lesson and made to be serious, then the Lakers in 08-09 will be the unworldly enemy of all league teams.

Kobe first broke through to the top of the arc on the left, and under the cover of Battier's defense, he forcibly pulled up and scored. Then, with the help of the cover, he broke through and assisted Gasol and Bynum to dunk. On the edge of the OB, in a round that attracted the attention of the Rockets' defense, Kobe started to run without the ball without holding the ball. Gasol received a pass from Fisher and forced Randolph inside, and meditated on his back to the small penalty area line. He scored the ball with a hook nearby, and at the same time caused a foul by the big black bear.

It is not surprising that Gasol can impress Randolph. Although Gasol usually does not look like a mountain, but he does have a weight of 260 pounds, while Randolph, who seems to be big and three thick, only weighs 255 pounds. In terms of tonnage alone, it is 5 pounds lighter than my sister-in-law. Who would believe it?

Moreover, the sister-in-law's 2 meters is almost 13 centimeters taller than the big black bear's 2 meters. That is to say, the sister-in-law can't catch the basketball in the inside position of the Lakers, so she has to run to the upper limit when she doesn't have the ball. It gives people a very soft feeling as a mid-screen shot, but if you really give him basketball, he dare not boast about it. The big black bear is really not his opponent now.

The Lakers are blooming more. On the other hand, only Dayao is struggling to support the Rockets. Since the Lakers focus on taking care of the Totoro, Yao Ming and the others must be strategically emptying out. Yao is not sure about the Sharks in singles, but he can score 6 out of ten. , 7 is still possible, those black centers don't like to go around the front to defend Yao Ming, thinking that this is tantamount to admitting that he is inferior to others in disguise, but this has also made Yao Ming's great reputation in the NBA.

My Neighbor Totoro really doesn't understand where those black people have these stink problems. If everyone defends Dayao like Duncan Gasol, the little giant's statistics will drop by at least 5 points in scoring, and his historical status may not be as good as Later, he entered the Hall of Fame with the reason of "outstanding contribution to basketball". After all, a center with 19+ in his career is still eligible, but a center with only 14+9+ in his career can enter the Hall of Fame. It's not going to be round, and the Hall of Fame is not just any cat or dog can enter, is it?
But that’s okay, the little giant is his own, and the other Yankees are class enemies outside. The more indulgent the enemy is, the better for us. Totoro has another goal when he comes to the Rockets, which is to help his brother Yao become a professional Career 25+10+, although this task is a bit arduous, it is not impossible. With the arrival of himself, Dayao will be double-teamed less often on the offensive end first, and his health is better. It turns out that he intends to make cakes. It is not a problem for Yao Ming to score 25 points per game when he eats a few cakes. You must know that the little giant has scored 21+ points in 30 games this season. If he can play a few more games in his career In 25, averaging [-] points per game can still be regarded as a dream.

If the dream really comes true and wins a few championship rings, then Dayao, not to mention the number one center in history, at least surpass Shaquille O'Neal and become the top five center in history is a sure thing. Shaq has played for a lifetime and is only 22.9 Points, 10.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists, Yao Ming reached that step, where is the round data worse than O'Neal?

My Neighbor Totoro is planning to get Brother Lian to the Rockets team next season. The Rockets used to be owned by Alexander, a stingy American. But now that he has changed to a Chinese boss, he doesn't have so many scruples. It has always been his dream to form a team of Red Army in the NBA to conquer the world.

Of course, that is also a matter of next season's offseason.

The Rockets did not last long. They fought the Lakers in the first half to a 13-13 tie. The little giant scored the first 13 points of the 10 points by himself. Namu switched positions and asked the Spaniard to serve as the center forward to defend Dayao. Gasol didn't have that much self-esteem, and his sister-in-law put down her body steadily to go around the front. The height of 2 meters and a pair of long Dayao's catch suddenly became difficult, and the Rockets couldn't find a third scoring point. The score was suddenly stretched by the Lakers. At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets trailed the Lakers by 13 points at 20:32. .

Kobe had 8 points and 3 assists, Gasol had 10 points and 2 assists, Bynum had 5 points and 2 rebounds, Trevor Ariza had 3 points, and Fisher had 6 points.

This scene is very similar to yesterday's Celtics VS Magic game. If the playoffs can reach the division finals, the skills and tactics of all teams will become extremely important. If the opponent comes up with a trick, you can't solve it. , then the score will be instantly increased. In addition to testing the players' on-the-spot performance ability, the final stage also tests the coach's on-the-spot adaptability. The coach who solves the problem quickly will undoubtedly suffer a lot less. Correspondingly, the problem-solving With the problem of poor ability, it is difficult for the team to escape the haze of failure.

"In the second quarter, Totoro, you continue to lead the bench team to play for a while. They started and played the entire first quarter. In the second quarter, they will definitely put down the main force and rest for a few minutes. You are still young. Today you have to do It’s good to play the whole game and be mentally prepared. My task for you is to attack me non-stop in the second quarter. Even if you try your best, you must pull the score to about 5 points in the gap of these few minutes. How about it? Are you confident you can do it?"

Adelman scratched his head and scratched his head for a long time, but he couldn't think of a way to cut off the contact with the Lakers players. In the end, he had no choice but to think of a non-solution. Chinchilla was very unhappy with the task given to him by the coach. What does it mean when I am young, I have good physical strength? ah?Is this Nima's age and physical strength equal?

And if you don't arrange any tactics, you will just talk nonsense. This is like the political commissar of our army during the Anti-Japanese War. You want the enemy to kill more and shoot less bullets. Are you kidding me?
In the end, Ashuai seemed to underestimate the durability of the opposite volute. At least Totoro felt that Zen Master would not let Peter Pan rest. The boss is 35 years old and can play 30+ minutes per game, let alone Kobe is only 31 years old now, and it is not a big problem for him to play the whole game in some key games.

Sure enough, in the second quarter, Kobe and Totoro appeared on the field at the same time, both with a group of substitute players, and the volute and Totoro stopped acting. Here I will definitely return you a 2+1, over there you will give me a mid-range shot, here I will definitely return you a slam dunk, it is not easy for you to come and go, but the score is always around 10 points , Totoro could not lead the team to close the score.

Now it’s Phil Jackson who looks like an old god. Even after 3 minutes, he is not in a hurry to replace the main force. Anyway, they still hold a 10-point lead. If the enemy can’t move, I can’t move. You put the lineup until the end of this game!

But Adelman could not seek change in a steady state. He dug a big hole for himself at the beginning, and then he had to try his best to fill the hole. The sooner he filled the hole, the better for himself. This was 10 points behind in the first quarter. Like being 10 points behind at the beginning of the fourth quarter, can the mentality of the players be the same?

Ah Shuai took the lead in dispatching all the main players, and the effect was immediate. The score was shortened to 5 points in an instant, but after a few minutes, Zen master slowly returned his main players. Time is still as if time is suspended. If you score, I will definitely be able to score this round. If you hit the iron, I am not ambiguous. The Rockets and the Lakers have always maintained the same trend of rising points. Before the end of the second quarter, the two teams fought 52. than 57.

As soon as the intermission ended, the Rockets still took Yao Ming and the others to the court, but Phil Jackson still put up a strange lineup with a main player and four substitutes according to the plan, but this time the main player was replaced by Gasol from Kobe. Adelman immediately realized that there was something tricky about it.

"No, why can't I see what kind of medicine is sold in the other party's gourd?"

The Rockets attacked on the court, but Gasol also played well with the substitutes, and my sister-in-law still has a certain ability to lead the team independently, otherwise he would not lead the Grizzlies who have not made the playoffs for many years. Entering the playoffs, although it is only a round trip.

After 4 minutes of the third quarter, the Rockets managed to even out the score. Zen master belatedly replaced his other main teammates. The scores of the two sides rose alternately. It became 82 to 83, and the Lakers were only slightly ahead by one point.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Adelman put Yao Ming and others off the court to rest. Today they are already overloaded to fill the hole. Now they chase the score to only 1 point. Ashuai will let them no matter what. He poured two bottles of Gatorade on the bench, but at this time, Zen master took all the main players to the field.

"Damn it! He actually played this trick, these people will play the entire fourth quarter!"

Adelman was stunned for a moment. He only now found out what the opponent was doing in the rotation of the second and third quarters. This was to accumulate energy for his players. Zen Master planned to start the decisive battle in the fourth quarter early in the morning.

Bynum scored in a dunk against David Lee in a singles, Gasol stunned Xiaojia with his dreamy footsteps and scored 2+1. On the court, two fists were hard to beat with four hands. When Yao Ming and the others came up after 2 minutes, the score was instantly opened up by 12 points.

Chinchilla can also score now, but he is not strong after all. Even with the help of the system, he can hardly even run when he is physically exhausted. How can he shoot and score?
The same is true for Dayao. As the main center forward, he can maintain his state and play for three quarters. This is already an excellent performance. It is impossible for him to maintain his state and play for three and a half quarters. It's not something that can be done with willpower alone.

Once the two Chinese Rockets stopped cooking, their biggest weakness was also exposed. The two cores, one inside and one outside, are what they rely on to make it to the playoffs, but once they are removed, you will find that the Rockets not only have no No one can score, and there is not even a stable ball holder.

Calderon is an assist-type traditional post, Battier is good at defense and fixed-point three-pointers, Randolph and Lowry are too young, David Lee is too short, and Iguodala is the only one who has experience as a team core, but If Brother Yi is to do better in the regular season, if he is to challenge the team to play in the Western Conference Finals alone, I am afraid that even a sensible person cannot think that he will succeed.
