Chapter 464: Come, come, pay the tuition!

This quarter played around 10 minutes, the score on the field was 22 to 28, the two sides began to enter the rotation.
Carlisle and Jackson both used only 8 rotations.
On the Wizards side, Hamilton and Tracy McGrady stayed on the court, replaced by Mutombo, Hayes and Tyronn Lue.
On the Lakers' side, Sun Hao, Ariza and Mourning stayed on the court, replaced by Finley and Horry.
With the Wizards' possession of the ball, McGrady no longer holds the ball, but instead stands on the flanks.
Obviously, he opened the game against Sun Hao, and attacked again in the second half. He consumed a lot of physical energy. Staying on the court was more of a restraint.
The actual offensive core of the Wizards in this period is Hamilton.
The man who vomited his own dog and made Kobe "weak to spit out", at this moment, after a lap and a half, he throws away Finley to catch the ball.
"Huh!"
Basketball hollow pocket.
The Lakers' offense, Sun Hao is also playing check.
Finley was the main offensive point of the Lakers at this time, but unfortunately his breakthrough layup was interrupted by Uncle Mu and he didn't make it.
Uncle Mu grabbed the rebound and the Wizards counterattacked defensively.
Hamilton took the lead, left everyone behind, and received a long pass from Lu and scored a layup!
That fast attack speed stunned everyone else.
You know, Hamilton has played almost a full quarter.
Even Sun Hao couldn't help but complain when he looked at Hamilton's back: This guy must have two stamina gauges!
In history, Sima Yi managed to pick the peaches after having survived all the great contemporaries. Hamilton has successfully managed to get the superstar on the court until he has no energy and started to be the big brother!
Finley received a pass from Sun Hao in the frontcourt.
This time he seized the opportunity to avoid Mutombo's block and scored a defensive layup.
After experiencing the Yao Sha showdown and Sun Mai's PK, the game has entered into the time between Hamilton and Finley.
Such a game is a visual feast.
In the Wizards' final attack of this quarter, Hamilton successfully smashed Finley once again, catching the ball and layup at the buzzer and scored 2 points!
Although there was no chance of performance under Van Gundy before, he was reborn after arriving at Carlisle, and he was the team's top three.
And don't think he has no explosive power in scoring. He can be the top scorer in the Pistons at this time, averaging 20+ per game!
At the end of the first quarter, the score on the court was 28-30.
The Lakers lead, but the lead is negligible.
A game, whether it is the player's performance on the field or the psychological game between the coaches, all showed up, and the fans watched it very enjoyable.
And the fans soon discovered that this kind of enjoyment is not just a section.
In the second and third quarters, both sides were tricks and tricks.
After three quarters, the two teams tied at 88 and returned to the same starting line.
The outcome is unpredictable, it may only be a matter of a few rounds, or even one or two rounds.
It is precisely because of this that the head coaches and players on both sides are highly concentrated.
Saying that it was the first game is just a test, but everyone is aware of the stalemate in front of everyone that the side that wins the first game will have a very large psychological advantage in the series.
In other words, in the first game, both sides will strive to win.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the rotation between the two sides was once again expanded to ten people!
The high-intensity confrontation makes the physical energy consumption of the two teams very large, including the number of fouls that are much more than normal games.
But the same thing is that the two sides still lead alternately in the score, which is deadlocked.
Carlisle watched the situation on the court, resting his chin in his hand thoughtfully.
This quarter hit more than 4 minutes, the two sides have switched back to the main force.
At this moment, Carlisle called a timeout in advance.
This timeout was called abruptly, not only the fans and Brin and others in the commentary, but even Jackson was a little confused.
In the first round after the timeout, the Lakers still had O'Neal launch an offense inside just like the opening.
But just when he made Yao Ming turn around and prepare to take a shot, the assisting guard Huo Ershu directly fouled him in advance and sent him to the free throw line.
O'Neal goes to the free throw line.
The first penalty missed.
For the second penalty, after knocking on the edge of the basket, he rolled in fortunately.
One of two free throws, a good performance for the "Sharks".
Looking back, McGrady and Yao Ming continued to play the pick-and-roll cooperation. McGrady opened up and went straight to the basket, leaning back and wiping the board to score the ball.
Just after replacing him, McGrady said he has plenty of energy.
The Lakers then gave the ball to O'Neal, and O'Neal saw the opportunity this time and turned to the other side of the shot.
But before he shot, Yao Ming fouled in advance!
You can't see much in one round, but after two rounds, you can already see what tactical deployment Carlisle did during the suspension.
This is... the shark-cutting tactic!
A chopping shark that looks a little unconventional.
The reason why it is unconventional is because the shark-cutting tactics need to meet certain conditions.
One of the most important is that the number of fouls in a single quarter must be at least 4 times.
Because there are only four times, a simple off-ball foul can send the target to the free throw line.
Otherwise, it can only be effective when the opponent makes a move, otherwise it is a meaningless foul.
Like in history, Popovich once fouled O'Neal on the night of O'Neal's birthday.
The foul shot was known by many people, but it didn't actually send O'Neal to the free throw line, and it had little effect on the game.
The Wizards' unconventional is not at this point.
Of course, Carlisle was obviously considered.
There are a lot of fouls on both sides of the fierce confrontation on the field, and the time of slashing early and late will not be too different.
And as the main defense of O'Neal, Yao Ming has a good foul control tonight. Counting the foul just now is his third time.
So even if the defender fails the foul, Yao Ming can still choose to foul the shark.
O'Neal went to the free throw line again.
He adjusted his breathing.
The first penalty missed.
The second penalty was still missed.
This time, O'Neal played stably and missed both free throws!
There was a sudden burst of cheers on the scene.
O'Neal made 1 of 4 free throws in these two rounds. The Wizards' shark-slashing tactics worked very well!
Of course, more importantly, the Wizards themselves scored the ball on the offensive end!
99 to 95!
Don't underestimate this wave of 4 to 1, the Wizards are slowly taking the initiative in the game!
On the sidelines, Phil Jackson was contemplative.
Carlisle's tactics are the same as the opening game, very creative.
Now he has to do multiple-choice questions, replace O'Neal to avoid being chopped off again, or choose to believe that O'Neal continues to keep him on the court.
Choosing the former, the Lakers' internal strength has declined, and choosing the latter is entirely based on O'Neal's free throw status and the Lakers' own defense.
No matter how you choose, the Lakers seem to suffer.
Although Carlisle was young, he was no better than Popovich before.
After hesitating for a while, Jackson did not stand up, which means that he chose the latter.
He chose to believe in the defense of O'Neal and the Lakers.
Of course, there is Sun Hao.
"beep!"
The whistle on the field sounded again.
This time, because the Wizards had committed 4 fouls in a single quarter, O'Neal was fouled before halftime.
O'Neill has a little discomfort on his face, but this kind of scene has been experienced a lot, and there is no way to be uncomfortable.
Sun Hao walked over and patted his arm to show encouragement.
O'Neal went to the free throw line again.
He adjusted his mind and breathing.
Or... missed two free throws!
It seems that he couldn't find the feeling of this free throw tonight.
"Phil had better replace Shaq."
The commentator's Brin gave the Lakers a move at this time.
But Jackson made a decision and did not change easily.
Sun Hao turned his head to see that Jackson still had no intention of adjusting. He directly stretched out his hands and applauded to mobilize the defensive enthusiasm of his teammates.
Just as he did in the Western Conference finals against the Suns.
Everything is cooked once and cooked again.
The Lakers players also instinctively remembered the scene when they played the Suns before, and their defensive enthusiasm was obviously increasing.
After McGrady's pick-and-roll, Ariza struggled to interfere, and the basketball smashed out of the frame.
O'Neal grabbed a defensive rebound.
Then, he was fouled again.
He frowned while holding the ball, the big one could put down a pen.
If he is a Chinese, he must be surprised at this moment: there is no end!
Sun Hao walked to the "big shark" again.
And different from just clapping hands before, he walked forward with O'Neill while giving him psychological counseling:
"You know that a player can only foul at most 6 times in a game. There is still a lot of time before the game. They can't last too long. As long as you two can score one penalty, they will not dare to foul you easily. ."
Sun Hao's analysis hit the nail on the head.
Unconventional tactics mean that fewer people are used.
In addition to the fact that this tactic is not known to others, the reason why there are few people who use it is that there are more or less drawbacks.
Just like Carlisle used Tracy McGrady to defend against Sun Hao in the opening game, it paved the way for Tracy McGrady's physical fitness.
If it weren't for Hamilton's outstanding performance at the end of the quarter, the Wizards might still be behind the Lakers.
The same goes for the sharks that include this unconventional period.
Let the main players foul too much in advance, and it's better to take the opportunity to spread the score and build an advantage.
Otherwise, if the Lakers survive this period and are still deadlocked at the last moment, the excessive number of fouls is a time bomb.
By then, the advantage will be on the Lakers' side.
O'Neill was a little annoyed by the shark, but his mind was still clear.
After Sun Hao said the key points, he immediately understood.
And after understanding it, his whole person's mood was relaxed a lot.
When he gets to the free throw line again, don't say it, he feels as if he can make a penalty.
He adjusted his breathing.
On the first free throw, the ball slammed into the front of the basket.
The second penalty came directly into a hollow!
O'Neal, after making 1 of the first 6 free throws, came 2 free throws!
This Jackson was so excited, he stood up from the bench, the excitement on his face seemed to have won the game!
But he should be excited, because after he scored these two free throws, it was Carlisle's turn to worry!
Especially, when the Lakers also defended Yao Ming's inside attack!
Because it means that the shark-slashing foul just now is equivalent to giving the Lakers points for nothing!
On the field, O'Neal was fouled again because Carlisle did not order.
At this time, O'Neal had no psychological burden and made another two free throws.
Look at the scorer at this time, 99 to 98!
There is only 1 point left!
Carlisle got up at this time and made a tactical gesture. The Wizards gave up this shark-slashing tactic halfway.
This time, not only Jackson, Sun Hao was also happy.
Because this is equivalent to the Lakers losing nothing, but the Wizards have thrown themselves into a foul crisis.
Yao Mai played a pick-and-roll tactic in the frontcourt. Yao Ming seized the opportunity this time and broke through for a layup and scored the ball.
When the Lakers attacked again, the Wizards did not foul again.
Sun Hao started to play the pick-and-roll with O'Neal. After the split, he didn't shoot, but knocked the ball to O'Neal.
O'Neal rushed to the basket, the Wizards did not dare to foul at will, O'Neal directly broke through with both hands and dunked the ball into the basket.
There was a stir at the scene.
The same is two points, but the visual impact is different.
McGrady missed a 3-pointer in the frontcourt.
Looking back, Sun Hao took the ball and jumped to the basket this time.
There is no need for Jackson to say hello at this moment. Knowing that the Wizards fouled a lot, the Lakers are all rushing to the frame!
Sun Hao's breakthrough was decisive, and Huo Ershu had no time to help defend and could only choose foul blocking.
But this foul is already his fifth time!
When Sun Hao saw the technical statistics, his smile was happier than a goal.
Carlisle's tactics did not achieve the expected results, and at this point he became digging holes and burying himself.
The game also began to develop in the direction of benefiting the Lakers at this time.
And after the Lakers played smoothly on the offensive end, the enthusiasm and effectiveness of the defensive end continued to increase.
As a result, the Lakers hit a wave of 15 to 5 attacks, and directly accepted the game!
113 to 104.
After the final whistle, the Lakers players couldn't hide the excitement on their faces, waving their towels and shouting in celebration.
Although there is no lore at the end of the game, it is as exciting as a lore.
A wave of pleasure.
Of course, the fans at the scene will not be too happy.
After the game, Jordan ~EbookFREE.me~ and Sun Hao briefly met before leaving the field.
The two teams held a handshake ceremony after the game. Yao Ming congratulated Sun Hao, but McGrady left after a situation.
In this game, Yao Ming had 27 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks, which is a lot better than the 22 points and 9 rebounds of O'Neal.
However, McGrady was responsible for defending Sun Hao since the opening game, not to mention the lack of shots, after the decline in physical fitness, the shooting rate was also average, only scored 21 points.
In contrast, although Sun Hao is also weak in his successor, he has more physical fitness and his shooting rate is not low. He finally scored a game-high 31 points.
So if anyone is unhappy tonight, he must be one of them.
Of course, the most unhappy person is definitely Carlisle.
Tonight's game is more like a tuition process for him.
The series has just begun, but he has to learn quickly.
