: 759. Defensive battle

"what……"
Liu Mang was shot on the floor, screamed and got two free throws.
There are performances that make the picture exaggerated, but his screams are not all exaggerated.
Liu Mang just hardly used Boozer's pick-and-roll to get to the basket, and also used Kwame Brown's threat to deceive O'Neill, but O'Neal slapped Liu Liu's right shoulder without a chance to block , Directly destroying Liu Mang's coming up, and also patting Liu Mang on the ground.
That is, this man is Liu Mang, and other people are photographed on the floor with such small pains. It is estimated that there is no way to cure them. Only ice compresses can be used to recover the minor bruises, and only the pain .
When Liu Mang received a minor injury, he immediately repaired the injury with primary injury medicine and 500 superstars.
However, Liu Mang's performance is exaggerated, but this is the Lakers home, although O'Neill's action is a bit too much, the referee still gave only one shot foul.
Without fooling into malicious fouls and technical fouls, Liu Mang can only stand up and take Kwame Brown's hand in a daunting manner and get onto the free throw line.
Seeing that it was a miserable one just now, but Liu Mang, who was like nothing else, the fans at the scene gave boos.
It ’s not that Liu Mang does n’t want to continue to be miserable, but that he has tried several times. The referee ’s bias towards the Lakers is the same as before. Liu Mang did n’t receive many home whistle at home. Fairness, and when it is away, it may still be fair, but the Lakers' rough actions, the referees are all just ordinary fouls!
Liu Mang ’s current thinking is that he can cheat if he gets a heavy penalty, even if he ca n’t, he adjusts his mentality and body, and takes free throws.
Now the Eagles are relying on his free throw!
...
From the beginning of the game, the Lakers' play style made the preparations of the Eagles a fool.
The Hawks have defensive expert Mike Woodson, tactical master Rong Kruger, future tactical library Liu Mang, and 20 years of experience as the core of the organization John Stockton.
On the Lakers side, there is also a group of excellent coaches, and the best among them is the nine-head coach who is tied for the first in NBA history, Phil Jackson!
It ’s not that Kruger ’s conservative tactics have any problems, but the Zen Master ’s experience is too rich. In the case of 0 to 2 backwards, at the beginning of the third game, the first coach to give up his advantage, it is estimated that the Zen Master Dare to do it alone!
With Kruger leading 2-0, there was no problem with preparing for a conservative tactical choice in the third game. If it was a Zen master ten years ago, he would do the same, and he really did. , And did so in a 2-0 away game.
The 92-93 season was the first time the Bulls had the most difficult championship in three consecutive games. Their season record was only third in the league and 57 wins. The Suns won 62 in the finals, but the Bulls relied on it. The fierce offensive relied on Jordan's first game of 31 + 7 + 5, Pippen's first game of 27 + 9 + 5, and the second game of Jordan's fierce attack of 42 + 12 + 9, winning both consecutive away games.
At that time, the Zen Master returned to the home. He chose the same conservative strategy as coach Kruger and played defense, but he was completely wrong. Two of the three home games were won by the Suns. The only one to win was Jordan Tenjin. In the finals, 55 points were scored in the finals, and the average score of the finals was raised to more than 40 points. Only then won a home, and only won six points, or relying on Jordan to score 11 consecutive points before winning 6 Minute.
But the current Zen master already has a wealth of experience in winning the championship, and it is easy to judge the strategy that Kruger will choose.
Coach Kruger wanted to use defense to deal with the Lakers, but the Lakers did not attack from the beginning. The Lakers starter was mobilized by the Zen Master's heart to make it like a crazy little dog like five little blacksmiths on the field. Defensively, coach Kruger wants to use defense to deal with the Lakers, but his offense is first collapsed by the Lakers!
The shooting rate of the players of the two teams was extremely low from the beginning. O'Neal's shooting rate was only 43% in the first half, and the shooting rate of the entire team of the two teams did not exceed 40%.
In this case, O'Neill started to decline in physical fitness even after hitting a few powerful ones, and could not spend much effort on the offensive end in order to maintain the defense, but they have Kobe!
Beating opponents with rich iron experience, at this point, Liu Mang is not as good as Kobe.
In the first half, the two teams had been defending. When the half finished, the Hawks only scored 31 points, but the Lakers were not particularly good there. They scored 33 points, and the two teams combined less than 70 points in the half. ! Not at the same level as the first two games!
In the case where the shooting rate of the two teams fell below 40% because of the defense, Kobe Bryant's 38% shooting percentage in the first half today is extremely impressive!
The Hawks faced a completely unexpected situation, and the choices they made had problems. During the intermission, coach Kruger chose to give up the previous strategy and sent Stoke in the third quarter. Dayton, Liu Mang, Prince, Boozer, Kwame Brown's offensive combination.
However, the Lakers still maintain a high-intensity defense, and because of the presence of Malone and Payton, the two returned to the home defensive end to express their power. The Eagles ’Stockton and Boozer ’s pick-and-roll cooperation was limited. Too.
On the contrary, it is the Lakers. They were originally relying on Kobe and O’Neal. Although the Hawks ’lineup is also above the league ’s average level of defense, it is too bad compared with the league ’s best defense in the first half. Far away, Kobe Bryant was liberated, giving O'Neill enough time to rest and head to the Hawks alone.
On the Eagles side, Liu Mang was forced to slam his arm and push forward to create a kill. The outer line was defensive. The Lakers were to let Liu Mang enter the inside. Facing Malone and O’Neal ’s copper walls, Liu Mang only Can throw himself into the air again and again.
At this stage, the Hawks can barely rely on Liu Mang's scoring threat in the second game, giving Liu Mang a lot of opportunities to foul.
...
Liu Mang stood on the free throw line, ignored the boos and the insults of the fans next to the basket, and steadily hit two free throws. The individual scored 14 points in a single quarter.
The Hawks barely allowed the Lakers to widen the points in the eight minutes before the third quarter. In the eight minutes, Liu Mang scored 14 points. The Hawks scored 19 points, but the Lakers also got Bryant. To 12 points, and also sent 4 assists to help the Lakers get 24 points, the Hawks have been 50 to 57, seven points behind.
Then in the last four minutes, O'Neill's halftime break plus these eight minutes only needed to be responsible for the defense and the dunk after Kobe's breakthrough and attracted the bag. Finally he recovered his physical strength and the sharks began to wreak havoc!
In the last four minutes, O'Neal resumed the madness at the beginning of the first quarter on both ends of the attack and defense. Three blocks were sent in 4 minutes, and he also crushed the Eagles' Ostertag who was replaced when Liu Mang made a free throw. , A dunk in one catch, two hooks, and scored 8 points in a row!
The Lakers only scored 8 points in the last four minutes, but O'Neill's madness prevented the Eagles from only 4 points. After three quarters, the Eagles were 54-65, 11 points behind!
The Eagles, like dominoes, had control of the game. From the beginning, they made a wrong move, lost every step, and lost all the time.
Seeing the 11-point difference, Liu Mang had tolerated, and still did not choose to use Iverson or the random point card of the era's strongest point guard.
I have been completely suppressed on this side. At this time, there is a wave of force. It is still impossible to reverse the current situation. From the beginning of the game, the OK trend on the Lakers side and the unexpectedly fierce defense have already put myself in this position. After the suppression, the use of the star card also depends on the timing. If the timing is not right, it is very likely to waste a precious superstar star card.
When Liu Mang played the Nets last season ~ EbookFREE.me ~ already had a lesson. The use of star cards was not well-timed, which wasted in vain. When needed, there was no suitable star card available. .
As Liu Mang expected, O'Neill, who had not delivered enough power in the last four minutes of the third quarter, took the anger of losing in the first two games. Kobe also lost because of the first two games, suppressing his wave of vote. Heart, stubbornness has not been triggered, and he put his best into the defensive end. When he is needed, he will start to wave. When not needed, he can't hold the heart that he wants to throw with the ball.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, O'Neill scored 6 points, and the Lakers continued to maintain defensive oppression. On the Eagles side, the momentum of this game has been smashed. The opponent was led by the opponent through the nose and the start was the Lakers. Played a 6-0, and the point difference was pulled to 17 points.
At this point, the Lakers laid the winning game. The Hawks did not insist on defense in the third quarter. The Lakers pulled the difference. Now they want to tighten up, and there is no way. The Lakers are because of the need to They won the first finals and supported their defensive motivation.
In the fourth quarter, Liu Mang can only play on his own in the fourth quarter. In the single quarter, 4 of 13 and no three-point chance, the other party is to let him break through. He also scored 12 points in the single quarter, two shots, one layup and one. Slam dunks, plus 4 of 6 free throws, but the Hawks only scored 15 points in the final quarter. Except Liu Mang, the open shots of other people were too defended because of the first three quarters, and the feeling was gone.
The Lakers kept the 15-point lead to the end!
In the end, Kobe Bryant scored 26 points with a 39% shooting rate, and O'Neal scored 31 points with a 44% field goal rate. The key is that he made 9 of 14 free throws today. "Scary", the Lakers eventually turned 84 to 69, the big score became 1 to 2!
