Los Angeles, Lakers and Spurs playoffs in the fourth game.

Staples arena is already full of people. For many Lakers fans, this may be the last Lakers game they saw this season.

Unfortunately, of course there will be, after all, did not see the Lakers go further in the playoffs. However, being able to reach the playoffs is a big surprise for the Lakers fans. No fan will complain that the Lakers stopped the first round of the playoffs. Although they are a bit depressed, they are still cheering for the Lakers wholeheartedly. Cheer.

This competition is also the first game after Zhang Guan comes back.

In fact, Zhang Guan didn't have any serious injuries, just general sprains. If it is placed in China, it may be better to just paste a plaster and rub an egg. Moreover, with Zhang Guan's physique, even if it is really injured, it is better than The average person recovers faster. However, Zhang Guan simply took the opportunity to rest for a few days.

Zhang Guan also found that his style of play was not compatible with Kobe, a team could not accommodate two Kobe, so Zhang Guan simply chose to hide and let Kobe lead the team to play, he knew that with the current Kobe It is impossible to lead the team to defeat the Spurs, so it's better to wait until Bryant can't carry it, and then come to clean up the mess.

The fact is exactly what Zhang Guan expected. Kobe scored a high score. Kobe tried his best, but the Lakers could not win. In the high-intensity confrontation of the playoffs, he is confronted with a defensive expert such as Leonard, averaging more than 40 minutes per game, and more than forty shots in a game. Certainly there is no problem, but now Kobe is 36 years old, and because of the injury for most of the season, he can resist three games in a row, which is already very good.

Now it's Zhang Guan's turn to clean up the mess.

Zhang Guan knows that this year's Spurs are impeccable in line-up collocation and tactical cooperation. This does not require much detailed analysis, and it can be reflected only through the record. A 62-20 record in the regular season, a 4-2 victory over the Thunder in the playoffs and a 4-1 victory over the Heat in the finals all prove this point. You have to know that the Thunder two players of this year have reached the peak level; and the Heat Big Three are defending champions, and in the hands of the Spurs, they have all lost without suspense.

Zhang Guan felt that it was not enough to have the strength, talent, and tactical cooperation to win the Spurs in the series for a few years. What was more needed was luck.

The so-called luck means that the ball that should be scored can be scored, and the ball that should not be scored can be blindly scored.

The luck of the running team is really unsolvable, not to mention the lack of nerve knife in the Lakers.

...

The Spurs clearly intend to sweep the Lakers 4-0, but at the Lakers' home, this goal looks a bit difficult. The Lakers have fallen behind 0-3, and in the fourth game they have to fight back to avoid being swept away.

After Zhang Guan replaced Comparables, the Lakers' offensive methods also changed. Kobe was more of a jumper. Although his posture was beautiful, his shooting percentage was anxious. Zhang Guan is better in physical fitness and movement speed, so there will be more breakthroughs in holding the ball. Compared with the picturesque jumper, the ball breakthrough will definitely cause more damage, and it is easy to get a free throw by "touching the porcelain".

Penalty shooting is the least difficult of all offensive methods and the highest percentage of hits. In the future, Harden is called the first point guard, not because of his higher shooting rate than others, but because of his league's first "touch the porcelain" level. In the Rockets period, Harden's shooting percentage was around 44%. Compared to Wade's low shooting percentage in 47% of seasons and 54% in high seasons, Harden averaged more than 10 shots per game. Free throws, Wade can only do it in the peak period, and Wade in that era, and O'Neill partner won the championship ring.

Today, Zhang Guan has adopted a breakthrough method.

The Spurs are still afraid of this breakthrough. Duncan is getting older, and his defensive three-pointer depends on his strength and seven-pointer on his experience; Split is averaging less blocks per game than many outside players. However, Leonard can make up for this deficiency in the vast majority, and the team defense on which the Spurs rely on survival is enough to deter those first-class breakthroughs.

Zhang Guan is undoubtedly the world's top breakthrough. With only one Leonard, defending Zhang Guan is still a little difficult. Unconsciously, Duncan, Split and Leonard each took a foul, and the Lakers suppressed the Spurs on the score.

"Zhang Guan's breakthrough is really sharp, it's time to use that trick! It was originally a big meal for James, but I didn't expect to use it now." Popovich took advantage of the chance of a dead ball and took Leonard Shouted around and carefully arranged it.

The game restarted, Leonard did not continue to post the defense, but adopted a defensive way of taking a step back, and the Spurs also used team defense tactics, as long as Zhang Guan broke through, the package came immediately, Lai Leonard and another player will cut off Zhang Guan's passing route, while slowing the impact speed of Zhang Guan, and then Split or Duncan will appear in the back to defend.

Inclusion, defense, teamwork, this is the Spurs' consistent way of defending superstars. If faced with an opponent who is good at breaking through, the Spurs can take a step back or even two steps back to defend, so that each breakthrough of the breakthrough player is faced with two or even three blocks. And if it is an opponent who is good at shooting, the Spurs' rotation defense can also interfere with their lack of shooting space.

In this year's playoffs, this defensive approach made many superstars desperate. In the Eastern Conference finals, Durant's three-point shooting was less than 30% of the Spurs' defense. In the finals, Leonard even It was the success that limited James and got FMVP.

Now, the Spurs use the same defensive approach for Zhang Guan.

...

How to break the Spurs' defensive system is a topic that every coach in the league is studying. The Spurs' defense is the most targeted defense. From the past examples, the best way to break the Spurs' defense system is to make a precise mid-range jumper. So for a long time, Kobe was known as the Spurs. Nemesis.

However, the emergence of Leonard complements this Spurs weakness. Leonard's defensive ability can at least limit the accuracy of those accurate mid-range pitchers. At this time, Popovich's defensive system is considered a success. . It's a pity that Duncan's age is slightly older, otherwise it's really a bit confusing.

The Warriors of the future have used pick-and-roll to break the Spurs' perimeter defense. Of course, this must be based on the Warriors' high shooting percentage. In addition, there are people like Stephenson who rely on intuition to break the Spurs. This is pure shit.

And tonight, Zhang Guan took another way to break the Spurs' defense. One word: Quick!

UI.

While the ball breakthrough is prevented, it is not necessarily that the opponent does not eat, it is likely that the speed of the breakthrough is not fast enough! When the speed is fast enough, there is no need to shake people, only one step is needed.

Like Iverson's ecstasy step, everyone knew he was going to break through, but still couldn't resist that step.

...

"Beep!" The whistle sounded, and Leonard turned to look at the basket, only to find Split crying and raising his hand.

"Tiago (Split) made five offences! Zhang Guan's speed is so fast, I can't keep up with this rhythm!" Leonard knew that this ball was his own black pot, precisely because he did not To prevent Zhang Guan's breakthrough, Split will be fouled.

Zhang Guan once again stood on the free throw line and then made two free throws.

"This is Zhang Guan's 18th free throw! It's 16 of 18 free throws. Zhang Guan scored 16 points on the free throw."

"Isn't it? Split, just gave Zhang Guan 10 free throws."

"Split came off, and the Spurs were relying on Duncan alone. It looks like the Lakers will not be swept away!"

Before the bench, Popovich sighed.

"How can there be such a fast guy! Pure speed alone breaks my defensive system!"

Popovich knew that in this game, the Spurs were already fierce.

On April 28, the Lakers defeated the Spurs 112 to 105 and pulled the score to 1 to 3.
