: Forty-nine ninety eight.

Shumpert did not defend against it. According to Liu Ren's outside shooting statistics given by the Knicks coaching staff, among the five shooting positions outside the three-point line, Liu Ren had the highest shooting percentage at 45-degree angles on both sides, reaching percent. Forty-one, the hit rate of the two bottom corners is the second one, reaching 37%, while the top arc is only 31%, and it is the position with the fewest shots. 【Full text reading】
"You can take action when the situation is necessary."
"Is it necessary now?"
"I think so."
After asking and answering questions in his heart, Liu Ren decisively took a jump shot outside the top arc three-point line!
Shumpert was agile and responsive, and immediately rushed to make a perfect interference. Liu Ren was indeed disturbed and was forced to adjust in the air.
"Bang"
The ball popped up on the basket.
Liu Ren missed a shot, but Green grabbed an offensive rebound!
Anyone who watches basketball games or plays basketball knows that the success rate of the second offense after grabbing an offensive rebound is much higher than that of the first offense.
At this time, because most of the Knicks players went to grab rebounds, Kobe was empty! Green's greatest strength is his good vision and excellent pass accuracy. When Stoudemire and Anthony were caught between the two, he passed to Kobe from the gap, and Kobe made a mid-range catch.
The teammate grabbed an offensive rebound and scored, and Liu Ren's burden of losing the ball instantly disappeared.
We are No. 1 in the rebounding league, so why do we use such a big advantage? Isn't it used to wipe P shares for people who strike iron?
Liu Ren's mentality is so "shameless"...
"Adjust it a bit, the speed of the shot will not be disturbed..." Liu Ren wants to go sideways now, and if he is not allowed to get an easy one-on-one opportunity in the position he likes according to the tactics, then he will be forced to beat him!
The Knicks attacked.
The Knicks have taken off again in recent games, and they have the feeling of last year's playoffs, and the feeling of a true championship-level team.
They were great before, but there was always something missing inside.
Without Chandler, although the Knicks are also a top-notch team, there is a very important tactic that cannot be played, that is, the pick and roll cut to score points.
Without Chandler, Anthony strangely became the strongest player in the frontcourt of the Knicks. To play the pick-and-roll, he also gave others the pick-and-roll, such as the pick-and-roll for Bargnani and the latter to shoot three points and Stoudemire. Er pick-and-roll let the latter into the basket or work at medium and long distances, or else it would be a pick-and-roll for the point guard...
It's been a long time since Anthony became the end point of pick-and-roll tactics.
The Knicks continued to allow Jason Smith to pick and roll for Anthony. Anthony handed the ball to Calderon and smoothly cut into the inside. On the other side, the Knicks players' various deceptive off-the-ball picks and rolls also began to operate.
The Knicks used Jason Smith and Stoudemire's mid-range ability to attract part of the Lakers' defense and dare not miss them, giving Anthony a chance to successfully enter the post.
However, this time the Lakers defended Anthony more tightly, and Liu Ren and Gasol eventually doubled against Anthony in the interior.
But Calderon did not pass the ball to Anthony this time, but to Stoudemire who was free near the free throw line.
Stoudemire made a mid-range shot from the free throw line.
Stoudemire's shooting level is getting higher and higher. Originally, his ability to shoot in the field is good. Now he has become the middle-distance bully after using the long-range shooting as the main offensive method.
Now in terms of power forwards, the NBA has begun to have the statement of West Aldridge East Stoudemire.
Stoudemire completely transformed this year. Instead of reluctant to miss the once-dominant basket, he came to shoot outside. It seemed a little softer, but compared to the Stoudemire in Liu Ren's memory, the ending was much better. , The career will be longer.
The Lakers offense.
This time it is Liu Ren who is advancing with the ball.
Liu Ren knew that the Knicks would definitely guard against him after receiving the ball, so he simply started from advancing by himself and curbed the opponent's defense from the source.
Don’t say it, Liu Ren’s advancement may be the safest one for everyone on the Lakers to advance, because no one would be foolish to defend him tightly, and use the guard tightly. The frontcourt is tight Liu Ren accelerates, and those who are tight can only watch Liu Ren accelerate the fast break.
Seeing Liu Ren taking the ball from outside, there is no intention to pass the ball. This scene is both familiar and strange to the Lakers.
Last season, Liu Ren had relatively little cooperation with his teammates. Most of the time, he did it alone or on the air. Everyone else was serving Liu Ren. This year Liu Ren joined the team more and started picking and rolling for his teammates. Event services, this kind of singles scenes appear less and less.
"How to prevent this? Just prevent it alone or double-team?"
The Knicks players are at a loss.
These two days of rest in Los Angeles, I said it was a rest. In fact, there are training in the afternoon of both days. There is also a video of the Lakers game after the All-Star weekend. The focus is on the defense of Liu Ren by other teams to contain the Lakers. Video of the overall offense.
The training arranged by the Knicks coaching staff for the players is also how to separate Liu Ren from the rest of the Lakers and crack the Lakers team offense.
But after the start of the game this year, the Knicks players found that the simulation training things were not useful! There is a feeling of hitting the cotton with a punch after trying hard to accumulate strength, and I can't find the point of force...
The Lakers won't play tactics at all today!
Liu Ren had the ball from the beginning, which is completely different from the tactics the Lakers played for three quarters of the season!
What else can I do?
Shumpert immediately defended in front of Liu Ren. The Lakers now have a certain shooting ability on the other four people on the court. They saw that Liu Ren had the ball and they all went to their own shooting areas and opened up the space. The Knicks only Can choose single defense.
Liu Ren moved outside the three-point line with the ball.
"It's not such a feeling, it's not here, I'm looking for it..." Liu Ren just stuck to the ball and didn't care about the passage of time, just wandering outside the three-point line.
Finally, Liu Ren felt that the rhythm was right. He sprinted to a 45-degree angle on the left, and Clarkson, who was waiting in the left corner, also tacitly cut into the basket at this time, giving the Knicks a kind of reverse run for the Lakers. Illusion, dare not double-team towards Liu Ren.
At this time, Liu Rengang went to the left 45-degree angle and jumped straight up, leaning against Shumpert's defense to take a three-pointer!
Green and Gasol on the inside line immediately started to grab rebounds, and Clarkson, who rushed into the line, also changed from an anti-running posture to a rebounding action.
"Huh"
This time Liu Ren entered!
This is the feeling!
Liu Ren started to get excited, this feeling has not passed for a year!
This year Liu Ren’s statistics, shooting percentage, and efficiency are much better than last season, but he has lost a very special feeling, especially after being targeted by opponents in the last few games. This feeling of losing something has become more and more profound. , Now he finally found it!
It's spirit!
No matter how the opponent defends, no matter who the opponent is, just do it!
This year, Liu Ren has become relatively mature and stable, and his playing has also become reasonable.
Even if it was beaten by the Warriors and scored 70+ and 40 points in a single quarter, it was because the team couldn't move and was about to lose. According to the situation, it was forced to play like this. In fact, it was a reasonable category, because at that time The Warriors played too well and their opponents were too strong, and they needed him to do that, but it was actually reasonable.
Of course, due to the great progress of the Lakers' young players this year, Whiteside and Green have become first-line players in the league. Clarkson is a rookie that makes the Lakers point guard line no longer a weak point. There are also Nick Young, Korver, McCollum, Antetokounmpo, these outstanding substitutes, the Lakers can always win as long as they play steady and reasonable.
But because of this, Liu Ren's enthusiasm gradually disappeared in this reasonable atmosphere. He himself felt that such a fight was right, and of course it was indeed right.
But basketball is not a thing that decides everything by right or wrong!
No matter how reasonable the game is, some teammates feel bad, which leads to the situation that the Lakers can't function when Liu Ren is targeted by opponents, just like playing the Cavaliers.
There was a crisis when playing the Hawks, but the Lakers players were too deep and the Hawks did not have the strength of the Cavaliers, so the Lakers could win the game steadily with the rotation.
But what about the 7 four-win playoffs and finals? What about when the opponents are the Warriors and Cavaliers? Still playing steadily? But it just happened to be in the playoffs that the whole series of teammates didn't feel good? Or is it steady?
This season, Liu Ren has been steady and steady, and he has been steady for too long, and he has been playing for too long. He has become accustomed to it. He has forgotten the feeling of being fearless and fearless before, and he has begun to fear losing. Fear not to invest.
Others such as Kobe, McCollum, Green and others who rely on Liu Ren's ability to play reasonably were also affected because of Liu Ren.
But Nick Young and Korver, who have always felt like they come to shoot, have not been affected.
After the All-Star Weekend, the head coaches of other teams seemed to have discovered this, and began to use this to defensively against him, put him in a "reasonable" position, and at the same time curb his chances of performance, gradually To a dead end.
The downside is that the overall strength of the Lakers is strong enough to secure a nine-game winning streak.
But because the Lakers are too strong, it is difficult for the Lakers to find this. So the Cavaliers and Warriors are actually laughing. If the Lakers don’t notice this until the playoffs, they will win even more. Up.
However, in the last game against the Eagles, Liu Ren was a rare person who wanted to express himself urgently. Then the Eagles' defense against him was too much, forcing D'Antoni to replace Liu Ren prematurely, and it happened that Nick Yang played. After that, the performance was so good. With the unreasonable wave shots, the Hawks' defense against Liu Ren was messed up. It gave Liu Ren an unreal feeling. It made Liu Ren feel so incredible. Why did a wave hit? Lang's players will play so well, can score freely under the same defense, and use his teammates better than him.
Liu Ren has always been an activist, and if he felt wrong, he used actual actions to verify it.
The Knicks, the strongest of the remaining opponents of the Lakers regular season, naturally became the best test subject.
In this game, Liu Ren felt from the beginning that the Knicks had made it clear that they wanted to defend against him like the previous teams. Some angry Liu Ren simply let it go!
Then the Knicks defensive plan fell in an instant, and failed before they had time to implement it!
Suddenly the Knicks' defense didn't know how to defend. Fisher formulated two sets of defensive tactics for this game before the game. The first set was to deal with the "separation" of the Lakers when Liu Ren was on the court. Defense is the defense that cuts off Liu Ren's contact with other teammates, and cuts off the offense of the Lakers team. The second is to curb the inside defense when the Lakers rotate the lineup, which is to shrink the defense.
But now the first defense is useless. Liu Ren doesn't play tactics. The Lakers don't play team offense. Liu Ren is the only one who can break through and shoot if he wants to break through. It is so capricious!
Liu Ren feels pretty good today. After half a day of luck, he can often make a shot after finding the feeling. If he can't find the feeling, he will be strong. After attracting double-teams, he will either continue to make a strong shot or pass the ball. The defense was upset.
The Knicks defensively collapsed, falling into a blind defensive state, crazy double-teaming Liu Ren.
After the defensive collapse, the offense will also have problems. The Knicks can't defend the side. The mentality on the offensive end is inevitably affected. The tactical movement is still so good, but when shooting, because of mentality problems, the hand feels the impact and starts to miss the shot. .
Slowly, by the end of the first quarter, the Lakers gradually opened up the score, leading by 11 points 31-20.
In the second quarter, the two sides began to rotate.
However, the two sides are likely to meet in the finals. This game is the last game before the two sides will meet in the finals this season. Naturally, they must try their best to win. The lineups sent by both sides in the second quarter are still the same. There are most of the main force.
The Lakers replaced Jeremy Lin, McCollum, Liu Ren, Antetokounmpo, and Whiteside.
The Knicks replaced Shevid, jr-Smith, Anthony, Bargnani, and Cole Aldridge.
During the break, UU reads www.uukanshu. Com Fisher completely overturned the previous defensive arrangement, and simply arranged it in accordance with the conventional defense. The double-team is double-teamed, and the single-defense is single-defense, and the overall rotation defense is emphasized.
D'Antoni didn't have any opinions about Liu Ren's "blind fight" in the first quarter, and he still arranged tactics as they should be.
D'Antoni is very romantic. After he has set up his tactics, he no longer asks. As long as the players play well, no matter how the players play in the real game, he believes that the plan will never catch up with the changes. , Players with flexibility are good players.
So D'Antoni continued to arrange tactics in accordance with the play style most suitable for this lineup.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Knicks began to follow Fisher's defensive strategy with Liu Ren as the starting point for the offense.
But after the game restarted, the Knicks players were confused again.
Liu Ren doesn't hold the ball anymore! The Lakers began to play Jeremy Lin and Antetokounmpo's high pick-and-roll support, and began to play the regular tactics of the Lakers this season!
"What the is this doing!"
