Due to the lack of offensive ability of the Lakers inside, most of the team's offense is initiated from the outside. Ke Yan pays great attention to the speed and range of the players on the wing position, hoping to use "faster" and "more accurate" players to fight against the "higher" players on the opposite side. ".

However, this Sonics team is more accurate than the Lakers.The two teams are like the two branches of the Warriors team that made it to the Finals five times from 14 to 19 years. They each inherited some of the technical characteristics of the Warriors team, but no team has dared to use that team first. The ultimate move of the "Warrior", the dead five!

The Sonics don't have a big inside killer, and the threat of directly killing the Lakers inside is not great. Therefore, Ke Yan decided to take a gamble and replace Chris Anderson with Matt Barnes, pushing Barnes directly to power forward position.In this way, Odom, who also has the ability to attack the ball from the outside, needs to be in the center position on the defensive end. All five players on the Lakers have the ability to shoot from the outside!

The Lakers made a substitution adjustment, and the commentator Wilson was very surprised: "He played, Matt Barnes played, replaced Anderson, Odom topped the center position, this is really a bold arrangement !"

The guest commentator Morris also couldn't believe it: "At such a critical moment, the Lakers boldly used a change. Barnes had only scored 2 points before. Why let him come up now?"

The foul ball was issued, Odom passed to Kobe, and then stepped forward to play a pick-and-roll with Kobe, Kobe broke to the right, Jerome James and Ray Allen rushed to Kobe together, Kobe returned the ball to Odo at the top of the arc Tom, the latter picked up Ray Allen with a fake move, and broke into the penalty area. Radmanovic had no choice but to retreat to the penalty area to make up for it, and put Barnes in the bottom corner cleanly. The latter even had time to dribble. The ball, like the rhythm of training, generally shoots three-pointers.

hit!

The point difference was widened to 4 points, and Ke Yan and Hamblen clapped hands to celebrate.With 44 seconds left in the game, the Lakers lead by 4 points. The importance of Barnes' goal, don't fight with Xiangbei Lingnan, the three-pointer that Mu Mugongyan made in two episodes!

The point is that Ke Yan has just made an adjustment, and immediately achieved immediate results. Barnes hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner, and the photographer on the scene immediately gave Ke Yan a close-up.

Ke Yan shouted to the players from the sidelines, reminding them to guard against the Supersonics' three-pointers.

Sure enough, the Sonics, who were strictly defended outside, chose to make two quick points when they couldn't find a shot. However, Jerome James just caught the ball at the basket and was fouled by Odom.

Ke Yan stood up and waved to the fans behind the Lakers basket, signaling them to make louder noises to interfere with Jerome James' free throws. Immediately, everyone responded!

Seeing this, McMillan secretly yelled, "It's a trick!" The Lakers fouled Jerome James, who was the most unstable free throw in the Supersonics, and cooperated with the pressure from the home fans to reduce the offensive threat of the Supersonics this round. lowest!

McMillan complained to the referee and asked to give Ke Yan a technical foul.The referee came over to warn Ke Yan, but there was no basis to give a technical foul.

"Boom!" Jerome James missed a free throw, and Ke Yan had a [-]% chance of winning in his heart, and directly celebrated with Anderson next to him.

"Shua!" The second free throw was hit, and the odds of winning came to [-]%.

With 33 seconds left in the game, the Lakers lead by 3 points and still hold the ball. It is difficult for the Lakers to lose as long as they do not make mistakes.The supersonic's pressure was easily resolved with the cooperation of Kobe and Odom. Facing Hou Fang's empty supersonic team, Kobe didn't waste any time, and went directly to the basket and sent the ball into the basket. At the same time also caused Radmanovich's defensive foul!

Kobe made an additional free throw, and the point difference came to 6 points. McMillan did not call a timeout. In 26 seconds, the 6-point gap was an insurmountable moat for the Sonics.

As soon as the final whistle blew, the fans in the audience began to celebrate, and on the Lakers side, the players and coaching staff hugged each other in high spirits!

Tomjanovich was absent due to illness, and there were many voices surrounding the Lakers, which created considerable pressure for everyone.The victory of this game has stabilized the morale of the Lakers!

Kobe's statistics in this game were mediocre. He made 24 of 11 shots, 3 of 1 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, 27 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals.The Lakers rely on the team to win. Butler, Odom, and Atkins scored in double figures.Although Anderson only scored 5 points, he picked up 12 rebounds!

No one will ignore Ke Yan's contribution. After returning to the locker room, Kupchak directly arranged for someone to notify Ke Yan to participate in the post-match press conference. This is the first time since the beginning of the season. Ke Yan passed.

Compared with the team's victory, Tomjanovich's body and the future of the Lakers are what media reporters are most concerned about. In particular, whether Ke Yan will directly take the position of head coach of the team has touched the heartstrings of countless Chinese fans .

There is no doubt that Chinese fans must hope that the NBA will have more Chinese elements.

"When Rudy will come back, the hospital has not given a clear time. First of all, we have to pray for him and hope that he can recover. Before all the dust settles, we will not discuss who will take over the Lakers. .For me, the focus is to do my job well!"

And Hamblen, who is temporarily in charge of the team, also expressed support for Ke Yan's remarks: "Rudy is not here, we did encounter some troubles. But I still have confidence that the coaching staff and players are ready."

. . . . . . .

Both Ke Yan and Hamblen expressed their support for Tomjanovich, but it has to be said that many things do not depend on human will.The next morning, the latest news came from the hospital. Tomjanovich's body could not continue to bear the load of the NBA head coach. He himself had already made a decision to resign as the head coach of the Lakers.

This time, the Lakers are in chaos!

Immediately, a reporter picked up the news that Jerry Buss met with Phil Jackson two days ago, pointing out the possibility of Zen Master's "restoration"!

Considering that Tomjanovich's illness took only two days, it can almost be said that Tomjanovich has just been admitted to the hospital, and the test results have not yet come out. Jerry Buss has already met Phil Jackson!

This also made Keyan uncomfortable.

Putting himself in the shoes of others, he absolutely does not want the management to contact someone to replace him before his situation is confirmed.

The former Bucks coach George Karl has also been hyped by the media as a popular candidate for the Lakers coach.Compared with Phil Jackson, who has always had a rift with Kobe, George Karl's coaching style is more moderate, and he respects each other with the players, which may be more to the player's appetite.

Instead, the rumor of "promoting Ke Yan internally" disappeared when the Lakers really needed to find a new coach to take over.

As if this is a ridiculous proposal!
