Chapter 290: [Really choose the wrong, close the double cover]

Even in the face of strict defense, Guo Xu had a way to shoot, but his shooting percentage dropped in the second half. He scored only one 3-pointer on 1 of 4 shots. He also missed the bench and Horry made a foul and made two free throws.
Guo Xu scored 27 points, 4 assists and 2 steals in a single quarter, leading the Suns to lead the Lakers 40 to 29.
O'Neal scored the most, with 13 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist. Kobe also had 8 points and 2 assists. However, their combined data is not as good as Guo Xu.
At this time, Old Bath and Little Bath began to feel uncomfortable.
The Ming Lakers have two superstars, and the Suns only have Guo Xu as an all-star. Why can't they win? At the beginning there was no room for salary to leave Guo Xu, they really chose the wrong one.
Old Bath remembers clearly that after winning the championship in 2001, Jackson and Kupchak visited him together, proposing to exchange Kobe for Gasol, Demar Johnson and future draft picks.
In 2002, Gasol became the best rookie and showed a comprehensive technique. Although the Grizzlies did not enter the playoffs, his strength was recognized by people.
Looking at the Lakers starting power forward Samaki Walker, they will definitely not renew the contract after the end of the season. The power forward, who claimed to be able to shoot when he first arrived, only shot 42% from the field this season. He also missed open shots and averaged 4.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per game.
Medvedenko can make a midrange shot, has a poor defense, has no speed in the 4th position, has no rebounds and no blocks in the center.
Madsen is a pure blue-collar, playing is about equal to a small number of offense, the periphery can be empty after the pick and roll.
Veteran Horry's shooting percentage has also fallen sharply. Without Guo Xu playing pick-and-roll, it is difficult for him to get an easy mobile phone opportunity.
Kobe Bryant continued to play in the second quarter, teammates are Karim Rush, Horry, George, Medvedenko.
The Suns are Alstom, Joe Johnson, Jacobson, Marion, and Stadamer.
The Lakers rely on Kobe singles, no tactics, the Suns quickly counterattacks, supplemented by positional pick-and-roll.
Alstom controlled the ball steadily. Joe Johnson was able to play singles as well as to organize. Stadamer played against the bench.
Kobe Bryant scored the first goal of the two sides in a singles, then the Lakers fell into a scoring shortage, Kobe was frequently caught around the penalty area, after passing the teammates took turns to hit the iron. O'Neal does not play, Kobe can't move the Lakers alone.
The Suns players are fast and keep on fast breaks. Brian Shaw can't prevent Alstom's breakthrough. Kobe can deal with Joe Johnson alone and can't help assist.
Phil Jackson, who played 14 to 4 in the Suns, called a timeout. He was 21 points behind at halftime, and the "Zen Master" couldn't meditate on the sidelines. Thinking of the end of the 76ers a few days ago, he was a little bit worried. Panic.
The Lakers made substitutions and adjustments. Fisher, Fox, O'Neal and other main players came back. The Suns also replaced Guo Xu, Kirisek, Nene, and replaced Joe Johnson, Jacobson, and Marion.
Zhang reasonable found something strange. "There are problems with substitutions this time. Alstom didn't end. Is the Sun going to play double guard? Who is responsible for preventing Kobe?"
Xu Jicheng said: "Maybe the coach feels too much ahead, does not want to defend, and has to speed up to fight back. The 76ers like to let Iverson play the shooting guard. It seems that Guo Xu will also try today."
The narrator guessed the truth. D'Antoni really thought so. The two defenders were responsible for driving the ball. The Sun's counterattack would be sharper. At the same time, he also sent two big rookies inside to prepare for double cover to help Guo Xu in the battle of the position. Out of the phone.
The Lakers attacked, O'Neal received a low post and attracted a double package, the ball was out of the periphery, Horry missed a step within the three-point line, Stoudemire immediately rushed out after the package O'Neal, too fast, Gai Horry could be scared.
Nene grabbed a rebound in the backcourt and passed it to Alston to launch a counterattack. Alstom turned the dribble under the crotch and then passed Fisher, forming 3 of 2 in the frontcourt. Horri guards Stoudemire, Kobe and Guo Xu, and nobody manages Alstom.
Alstom chose to grab a three-pointer and scored without defense. 57 to 33.
This kind of shooting will not blame Alstom even if he does not enter the coaching staff, because it is the right choice. If he does not shoot at all, he cannot help his teammates attract defense. He performed well outside the 3-point line this season, hitting 36.4% from the field.
"Chasing a three-pointer" is an important part of D'Antoni's offensive system. Players throw at any opportunity, regardless of rebounds.
The Lakers attacked. Kobe and O'Neal played a pick-and-roll. Attracted Stoudemire to give O'Neal the cut after the defense. O'Fat dunked the basketball with one hand. Guo Xu ignored after being blocked. Once O'Neal accidentally missed a goal, he launched a fast break, and misplaced defense was meaningless. 57 to 35.
Alstom took the ball to the left in the position battle, Guo Xu stood from the bottom corner of the side and ran back to the outer line at full speed. Stoudemire of the free throw line and Nene in the bull corner position gave him a cover and came a "close" Blocked Kobe and Horry.
Guo Xu ran out of the three-point line, received a pass from Alstom in the middle and was completely empty, half-turned the jumper and the ball was hollow into the net!
60 to 35, Guo Xu personally scored 30 points.
The Lakers attacked and O'Neal made the post in the post, attracting the defense to pass to the bottom-line Fox, who got rid of Kirisek's layup and scored. 60 to 37.
When the Sun attacked, Guo Xu continued to play without a ball. He first ran to the left corner and then slid the bottom line to the right corner. Kobe followed closely. But he couldn't keep up with Kobe Bryant. Stoudemire and Nene came with a double cover to "close the door." They blocked two people at once, even if O'Neill wanted to go out, he had to walk around.
Kobe took a slower step in chasing and blocking the cover. Guo Xu made a three-pointer from the right of the 70-degree jumper and hit again!
63 to 35, 33 points.
Zhang reasonable said excitedly: "Sun's two rookie insiders will not only catch empty shots, the screens are also good. Sun suddenly used double screens to help Guo Xu block two three-point opportunities, he all grasped Now. "
Xu Jicheng said: "Guo Xu can hold the ball to attack and can also play without the ball. Kobe can't prevent it. The Lakers are going to lose today."
"Elevator tactics" Reggie Miller played in the Pacers in the 1990s, but at that time the teams were mainly attacking inside, and few teams played this way.
The main point of tactics is that the offensive pitcher should be good at running without the ball, UU reading www. uukanshu.com quickly "entered the door", and then the two big players who screened closed like two elevator doors, blocking the defensive player "outside the door", thus creating a chance for the pitcher to catch the ball and get out of the phone. Once successful, it will greatly Improves the hit rate.
Although this tactic is very practical, it also has obvious shortcomings: first, there must be players who are good at running positions and accurate shooting; second, they completely give up rebounding; third, they may be blown illegally.
In this era, the league's punishment scale for the cover was relatively loose. When the player backed, the defender put his hands on the opponent's back and waist. It is more common for players to move during cover, with physical contact. As long as you reserve a distance in advance and try not to move sideways suddenly, the referee will not blow.
Sun practiced this trick during training, and suddenly it came out to catch the opponent by surprise. But the number of uses will definitely not work, because the newcomers are particularly vulnerable to blowing cover fouls.
When the Suns used Guo Xuan to block the player for the third time, the referee blew an illegal cover and the ball was given to the Lakers.
However, Guo Xu scored two goals in a row, which is enough.
