I am so Accurate

Chapter 288: What to save the Lakers?

"The game has just begun, and the Lakers will soon start to fight back!"

"I really thought the Lakers couldn't beat it, but it was still testing the game!"

"The Lakers have peak O'Neal and Kobe, and it is impossible to lose to the Mavericks. Last year was the best proof!"

...

Although the start was unfavorable, many loyal Lakers fans still have confidence in the team.

But at the end of the game, the score on the field was.

The Lakers ended in a disastrous defeat in the first game of the series.

If the Timberwolves in the first round did not enter the state because they just entered the playoffs, then this highly watched game has exposed all the problems of the Lakers in the spotlight.

Kobe and O'Neal each scored 27 points in the end.

However, the number of shots between the two was completely different. O'Neal hit 10 of 14 shots and Kobe made 9 of 24 shots.

Many people may wonder why the Lakers have already attacked O'Neal, and Kobe will take so many shots.

But after watching the game, you know that Dampier's presence and the Mavericks' defense strategy have given O'Neal a few comfortable offensive opportunities.

Kobe has taken more shots for granted.

Only to the end, as the outside world said, his efficiency is still much lower than O'Neal.

And a detail of the game also exposed the problems between the two, except for the opening stage, Kobe almost never passed the ball to O'Neal in the subsequent games.

This is part of the Lakers problem, and the other part can be traced from the statistics.

Excluding the data of Janeiro Pargo and Karim Rush in garbage time, the Lakers shot 3 of 20 from beyond the three-point line, and the team had 5 assists. .

These two data can intuitively reflect the state of the other role players of the Lakers, downturn.

Both Kobe and O'Neal had only one assist in this game. Kobe played more solo, but O'Neal made a lot of passes in double teams.

Unfortunately, almost no one can grasp the outside of the Lakers!

Looking at their performance from beyond the three-point line, Brian Shaw shot 0 for 4, Horry shot 0 for 3, and Devin George shot 1 for 4.

Kobe Bryant made the most shots, making 2 of 6 shots!

It's weird that such a Laker can win!

There is no harm without comparison. Look at the Mavericks again.

Sun Hao 27 points and 7 assists, Nowitzki 25 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists, Bodilloga 16 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, Van Exel 15 points and 3 assists, Bell 12 points...

In terms of personal data, 6 people in the team scored in double figures. In terms of technical statistics, the team made a three-pointer! 27 assists!

Look at it by contrast, at a glance!

After the game, James went down to the court to congratulate Sun Hao.

He holds Tao in his hands, and his face is full of smiles.

After some people become rich, many habits and preferences will change accordingly. There are countless examples of this.

But some people do not change their original intentions, and such people are only a very small number.

James is one of the very few. He and his wife Savana Brinson met at the age of 16, and until the final success, there was no substitution.

There is also his preference. He liked Tao early on, he still likes it now, and will still like it in the future.

Of course, in addition to eating his favorite food, Sun Hao's win naturally made him happy.

Sun Hao looked at James, but he was thinking about the draft that will come later. James of the Nuggets or James of the Pistons, no matter which one, will make him feel very different.

After all, in the history he knew, that knight Zhan was really unforgettable.

However, with James in front of him, Sun Hao chatted with him with curiosity.

"Which team do you prefer? Draft."

"Denver, they have the No. 1 pick, and they will choose me."

Sun Hao asked directly, and James answered very directly.

And that kind of self-confidence is not pretended.

Sun Hao nodded.

This answer is in line with James' character.

Do the best if you want to do it. As for hometown or something, it's not that important in comparison.

"And in the same division with you, I can beat you faster and get my nickname back."

James added with a smile.

Sun Hao was stunned when he heard it, and then laughed.

James always remembers this.

But that's right. If you are in the West, James will have more chances to beat him.

After all, in the East, like Jordan, at least you have to be an Eastern champion to meet him, and the degree of difficulty is different.

With that said, he is looking forward to the Nuggets Zhan.

After all, the hypothesis that Dian Feng Zhan dare not go to the west can have a very realistic answer.

"good luck."

Sun Hao smiled and reached out and touched James' head.

In addition to expectations, what he can think of is that if James is in the West, it means that he is likely to continue to encounter himself in the playoffs.

Now, how many times can he make it to the finals, or can he make it to the finals...

Well, this is a question that only time will answer.

James feels very motivated by Sun Hao touching his head (touching your head badge continues to work).

Maybe only if you really have expectations for him, will you continue to encourage him!

Power from the predecessors!

After the game, both teams held press conferences.

The Mavericks have fun here.

However, this time Nowitzki didn't taint himself or stand up.

This thing will be understood after much experience.

After the Lakers press conference, the atmosphere seemed a bit dull.

But in addition to Kobe and O'Neal, Phil Jackson also took Fisher.

That later proved to be a very witty decision.

"Every one of us is playing like shit. We have to hit those **** shots to win the game."

O'Neill rarely speaks like this in public.

But obviously, the fiasco tonight made him very upset.

This performance felt worse than when he was with the Magic, not to mention that they have just completed the dynasty in the past three years.

He must say something cruel to boost morale.

But when the reporter asked Kobe, Kobe's answer was completely different from O'Neal.

"I should shoot more, make more shots, and get more points."

This answer is very Kobe.

This is also a true portrayal of Kobe this season, he has treated himself as the boss of the Lakers.

If the team loses, it means that he hasn't played well enough to get more points.

And in order to explain that he was right, he added another sentence after he finished.

"In the past games, we won the games where I scored more points."

This sentence is correct, but it is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire. Even if O'Neill has a good temper, he feels about to explode.

You take more than 30 shots in a game. Of course, for the team, the two endings are completely different.

Give him the number of shots, he can blow the Mavericks inside!

The atmosphere of the conference was a bit tense.

Fortunately, Fisher took the initiative to take the microphone and said a word to ease the atmosphere.

"Kobe's point is that Shaq is focused on defense by the Mavericks and has restricted the defense. He should make more shots from the outside and get more points."

In the same way, after being explained by Fisher, the meaning is completely different.

The Mavericks defend the zone, and O'Neal will be double-teamed when receiving the ball. In this case, Kobe has no problem with taking more shots from the outside.

After he finished speaking, Kobe nodded, and O'Neal's anger disappeared a lot.

The role of "bridge" cannot be underestimated, and Phil Jackson took him too right at the conference.

However, from the tense atmosphere of the press conference, fans should also feel that the current atmosphere of the Lakers team can really be described as rattling.

Of course, just like the Kobe fans who believe that Kobe will find the touch in the next game, the Lakers fans also believe that the Lakers can usher in a strong rebound in the second game.

After all, in history, they believe that the Lakers can reverse the playoffs 5-4.

It's just that there is always some gap between reality and people's expectations.

Two days later, the Mavericks and Lakers game continued at the Dallas National Airline Center Arena.

The game played more intensely than the first game. Kobe fulfilled his promise of the first post-game press conference. He took more shots and scored more.

After the game, he took 31 shots and hit 15 of them, scoring 36 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.

O'Neal made 8 of 14 shots and got 3 rebounds and 3 blocks efficiently.

Although Kobe still grabs the shot, the OK combination is very efficient tonight.

But the result of the game, the Lakers still lost.

The OK combination is a barometer of the Lakers, but as analyzed before, the Lakers can no longer win the Mavericks by relying on the OK combination.

In this game, apart from the OK combination, the only Lakers role player who scored in double figures was Stanislav Medvidenko.

In Horry's poor state, Phil Jackson was still forced to use the player at the end of the bench.

He got 17 minutes of playing time, although he still contributed 4 fouls "steadily", but other than that, his performance tonight was superb.

He made 3 of 4 shots from beyond the arc, scored 13 points and 4 rebounds on 5 of 6 shots, and played the role of the bench.

However, apart from him, the performance of other people is really not enough to describe the performance of "abnormal performance".

Horry made 3 of 10 shots, 0 of 6 three-pointers; Devin George made 0 of 7 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers; Brian Shaw made 2 of 7 shots, and 1 of 4 three-pointers...

This kind of performance, fans who watch the ball can only sigh, the state of these people on the Lakers this season is really not temporary.

Ever since, in the forum after the game, Lakers fans staged a scene of laughter.

"The Lakers lost, Kobe didn't lose!"

"Shaq is really old, the Lakers should use him to exchange for a better inside player, such as Nowitzki."

"Phil Jackson doesn't understand the ball, he has been using those people in a bad state, look at Medvedenko, he should use more players who haven't played!"

...

This scene seems familiar.

Well, after the Mavericks lost to the Lakers last season, the Mavericks fans also said the same about Sun Hao.

However, this feels totally different.

Of course, these are just episodes of the game. The question left to the Lakers is how they will adjust in the subsequent games.

Otherwise, it is inevitable to be defeated, and it is even possible to be swept.

This is not only the defending champion, but also the sweep of the Dynasty team. If that is the case, it would be a loss of face.

Back in Los Angeles to rest and prepare for the third game, it became extremely tormenting for the Lakers players.

That kind of suffering is vividly reflected on the training ground.

If the OK combination can't win the game without being brave, how can they win the game?

This is an idea that permeates most Lakers players.

O'Neal, sit on the sidelines and rest.

He is the smartest kind of player with extremely high double quotient.

After the second game, he knew how strong the Mavericks team was, and he even felt stronger than the Spurs they beat the previous two years.

To win against such an opponent, in addition to their performance, the role players must also be able to perform.

But this is also his biggest headache.

He can give Kobe the shot, but he can't help the role players get the ball in.

And that state has been worse for a season, you said it is impossible to get it back by pouring some chicken soup.

At this time, he turned his gaze to Kobe again.

Well, Kobe is chatting with Fisher.

These two people are always like glue.

If he didn't know that Kobe was married, he would think there was a problem between the two.

Speaking of which, Fisher is really likable, especially when he speaks very much.

Thinking about it, he suddenly remembered something, and got up straight and walked toward Kobe and Fisher.

Kobe noticed O'Neal. In fact, it's hard not to notice O'Neal's weight gain.

Fisher also noticed, and he was worried.

Kobe and O'Neal have not communicated in private for a long time. The team lost two straight in the playoffs. This suddenly came up, and there may be a direct conflict.

He naturally stood in front of Kobe.

His body is certainly not useful, but his "bridge" can sometimes be a "buffer belt."

"Derek, I have a proposal."

But what Kobe and Fisher didn't expect was that O'Neal didn't seem to come to Kobe, but to Fisher directly.

Fisher was also full of doubts.

If O'Neal approached him privately, he wouldn't think there was any problem, but now he is in front of Kobe.

Um~www.ltnovel.com~ I don't know what O'Neill is thinking.

Fortunately, O'Neill quickly solved his doubts.

"I think it's better for you to take more shots than to watch other people not score."

O'Neill looked at Fisher and said seriously.

This proposal quickly aroused Kobe's thinking.

In the first two games, Fisher's performance was 3 of 3 shots and 7 points, and 2 of 4 shots and 6 points.

Although the contribution is not much, but in terms of hit rate, it is obviously better than others.

It's not that Fisher deliberately didn't make a move, but the Mavericks knew that Fisher was accurate and sent someone to target him.

But after all, there are only five people on the court, and they have to defend against Kobe and O'Neal. Even if Fisher is marked, it is limited.

If you do some targeted tactics, you can completely achieve the goal O'Neill said.
