Pick Westbrook

Chapter 179 Triangle Offensive Axis

"Welcome to the site of the 2009-10 NBA Finals, Bradley Arena in Milwaukee!"

"The game is about to start in half an hour!"

Kenny Smith's passionate commentary before the game ignited the atmosphere at the scene. All the Bucks fans wore green jerseys and green hats, and the whole stadium completely turned into a sea of ​​green.

Outside the Bradley Arena, the number of spectators reached a record high, and the entire street was densely packed.

CCTV.

When a reporter stationed in the United States brought back the terrifying fan atmosphere in Milwaukee, Su Qun couldn't help but sigh and said: "This city has a reason to desperately want a championship."

"39 years! Since the Bucks won the championship in 1971 with Skyhook Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Big O Robertson, the city has missed this honor for 39 years."

"Even two years ago the Milwaukee Bucks were having a big problem making the playoffs, and the city had a rise and a renaissance."

Yu Jia lowered his head and flipped through the data and said: "But in the latest official statistics from the NBA, 90% of the fans believe that the Lakers will win the championship."

"So obviously, no one believes that a team built on shooting will win this crowning glory."

"In the long history of the NBA, even Reggie Miller, who is as strong as a sharp shooter, has proved that a shooting team cannot win the championship. The Suns, who are good at shooting, have only reached the Western Conference Finals at most."

Su Qun sighed from the sidelines. In fact, he didn't believe that three-pointers could really win a championship-level game.

"Only a team like the Lakers that builds a team with insiders and mid-range shots is the only way to the championship."

Zhang Weiping on the side is very quiet at the moment, he doesn't need to say more, because everyone believes that Kobe can win the final game.

Zhang Weiping would like to say that the Suns are the team with the most accurate three-point shooting in the league this season, but they only won one game against the Lakers.

Moreover, in addition to the MVP Nash, the Suns also have the bully Stoudemire and Jason Richardson, but they were beaten helplessly in front of the powerful Lakers.

Although the Bucks are the team with the most three-pointers in the league, the result must be the same.

Then Yu Jia talked about the team support initiated by Chinese fans on the Internet. Even though the Bucks have the Chinese star Yi Jianlian, the Lakers still beat the Bucks with 80% support rate and 20%.

"It's completely one-sided suppression."

Bucks locker room.

Danny Green and Curry, who were playing in the finals for the first time, were a little nervous, and Yi Jianlian was also sitting next to the closet rubbing his hands.

Dragic has never had his heart beat as fast as tonight, except for the first time he picked up a girl.

Villanueva was extremely excited. He was ridiculed as a monster and thrown pebbles by children of the same age since he was a child, and now he finally stood on the stage of the championship. He proved that he was no worse than others.

Iverson rested his hands on his forehead and bowed his head in thought.

This is his second trip to the championship. The last time he led the 76ers, he also met the Lakers in the finals.

Iverson still clearly remembers how he fought against the OK combination alone, and crossed Tyronn Lue in the first game, scoring 48 points to break the Lakers' undefeated gold medal in the playoffs.

But it was hard to beat four hands with two fists, he was severely taught by the Lakers, and he was eliminated only 4:1.

And fate is such a coincidence that Iverson faced the Lakers in his second championship trip.

Iverson raised his head, his eyes were like a moment.

He knows that this may be the last time in his career that he is close to the championship trophy, and this time he will do his best without regrets.

O'Neal on the side still remembers the first day he learned that he was traded by the Suns to join the Bucks.

To be honest, he was ready to give up his career at that time, and planned to announce his retirement after getting the last big contract, and then enter the commentary team.

But Li Lai told him that the goal of the Bucks in the new season is to win the championship.

Li Lai did it, the Bucks did it, O'Neal lost a full 15 kilograms for the team, and he did it too.

O'Neal still remembers the night he was kicked out by the Lakers, and he still remembers the words old Buss said to him at that time: Sorry Shaq, we chose to keep the younger Kobe.

Because of this, O'Neal has had endless anger with the team and city for years.

And now is the best chance for him to choose to beat the Lakers with his own hands and prove the old Buss wrong.

Artest took a deep breath, and said silently at this time: Old brothers of the Pacers, I will make up for the mistakes I made at the beginning. For your regrets, I, Ron Artest, will win for you. return!
Westbrook stared at the wristband on his right hand and remained silent until the locker room door was opened.

All the Bucks players looked there in unison.

Li Lai walked in and saw that the locker room was surprisingly quiet. After meeting everyone's eyes, he found that no matter whether it was a young player or a veteran, they were all thinking about things, nervous, restless, angry, excited, And with a will to revenge.

Li Lai understood these emotions very well, and he said seriously: "Guys, I don't know what you are thinking right now, but I want to tell you what I am thinking."

"I can't wait to beat up those bastards of the Lakers!"

"Follow me to meet the enemy?"

Everyone: "Damn it!"

Dragic was suddenly very excited when he heard the dry word, and asked, "Is it him or his mother?"

O'Neal, Artest, Rasheed Wallace, the three villains of the Bucks turned around and gave Dragic a tacit understanding.

Dragic laughed dryly, "Brother, I was wrong, don't cut me."

on the field.

Game start!
Barkley exclaimed: "The Bucks starting lineup, point guard Westbrook, shooting guard Curry, small forward Artest, power forward Rasheed Wallace, center Yi Jianlian."

Kenny Smith excitedly said: "The Lakers starting lineup, point guard Derek Fisher, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, small forward Ariza, power forward Pau Gasol, center Andrew Bynum. "

"NBA09-10 season finals, start!"

Technical front.

Li Lai and Zen master Phil Jackson shook hands amidst the excited shouts of fans all over the sky.

Zen master kept staring at Li Lai with a smile on his face. After shaking hands, he found that the other party's hands were dry. He didn't feel the tension and discomfort of entering the finals for the first time. He couldn't help but look at Li Lai for the second time.

Zen Master looked at Li Lai, who went straight back to the sideline after shaking hands and stared at the field with both hands, and murmured, "It's a baby."

Midfield jump ball.

Bynum jumped high and grabbed the first wave of possession.

Kenny Smith raised his arms and shouted: "The game starts, the Lakers attack!"

Derek Fisher held the ball steadily across the half, Westbrook pressed the whole court, and showed a very strong desire to win as soon as he came up.

Su Qun was very optimistic about the young player Westbrook and said: "Whether it's the regular season or the playoffs, Russell Westbrook will always be the hardest player on the Bucks' court."

"So fans who haven't recognized the star yet, hurry up, this player will definitely be a high-quality idol in the future."

Derek Fisher is sophisticated with the ball and doesn't give Westbrook any opportunities to make mistakes.

After halftime, Fisher immediately gave the ball to Kobe at the top of the arc.

At this time, Kobe was not in the corner of the triangle offense, but this does not mean that he will not launch an offense, so the moment he got the ball, Artest immediately posted it to kill Kobe, not giving the opponent any room to shoot. .

At the same time, Rasheed Wallace chose to stand on Kobe's offensive route to form a second defense.

Yi Jianlian fought with Bynum, occupying the projection area of ​​Kobe Bryant's offensive penalty area.

"Just as soon as Kobe got the ball, the Bucks immediately put up three layers of defense!"

"This is Kobe! Regardless of the defensive intensity he suffers at any time, he will always be the top in the league."

Barkley said with bright eyes: "And the Bucks also chose to switch defenses. They let Artest defend Kobe and let Curry defend Ariza."

"It can be seen that the Bucks have made sufficient preparations before the game."

The Zen master off the field chewed gum, and after seeing the Bucks' defensive change, he immediately blew a whistle to the field, and then compared his hands.

Bucks coaching bench.

Tyronn Lue leaned into Li Lai's ear and said, "This is a common trick Zen masters have always liked to use. In the first round, use the strongest point to test the attack to find out the opponent's defensive strategy, so that we can arrange the next offensive tactics."

Li Lai nodded, and finally understood the reason why Kobe suddenly held the ball outside the three-point line. It turned out that Zen Master wanted to see how the Bucks planned to limit Kobe in this game.

He has to admire the opponent. This is the experience and ability of the league's top coaches. It is indeed simple, effective and smart to use this method to judge the opponent's tactics.

Faced with such a defense, Kobe heard the whistle of the Zen master, and then chose to return the ball to Ariza in the corner.

Kobe did not choose a single on the first ball in the finals.

Ariza hit the ball to the waist of Gasol.

Tyronn Lue said nervously: "The triangle offense has begun!"

Gasol raised the ball with both hands as the axis, signaling his teammates to start running.

Ariza mentioned that the top of the arc took Curry away, making it impossible for the Bucks to form a low double-team.

Fisher cut in from the middle, and after being stuck tightly by Westbrook, he chose to ambush at the bottom line on the right.

The triangle station has been arranged successfully!

Gasol started singles on Rasheed Wallace.

One library!Erku!

Rashid's chassis is great!Didn't give Gasol any chance to go inside.

It's just that Gasol is not the kind of player who has to go to the basket to score. He chose a small hook that changes hands.

Rasheed Wallace struggled to take off, but Gasol's wingspan was so terrifying that he could only watch the basketball slide into the hoop.

Go in!

Shooting feels very smooth!

Su Qun couldn't help but shook his head and said: "It's impossible to fight like this. Gasol's standing height is even more terrifying than Garnett, so no matter how good Rasheed Wallace's defense is, after all, the talent of height cannot rely on hard work." compensated by experience."

When the Bucks played the Celtics in the Eastern Conference semifinals, Rasheed Wallace didn't even have an advantage in defending Garnett, so it is naturally more difficult to hard-top Gasol inside.

The Lakers scored the first wave of possession.

Li Lai glanced at Rasheed Wallace from the sidelines, then made a palm with his left hand, and punched his left hand hard with his right hand.

Rasheed Wallace realized instantly and gave Li Lai a reassuring look.

Go to the Bucks offense.

Westbrook advanced with the ball, Yi Jianlian stood in a super long three-point position to attract Bynum, and at the same time Rasheed Wallace chose to take Gasol away in the right corner.

The restricted area is empty!
Westbrook suddenly accelerated and went straight to the basket, Fisher was always close to Westbrook, and the latter jumped suddenly from the free throw line.

Yu Jia said excitedly: "The ball is stable!"

call!
In the scene, Westbrook yelled and flew over the basket, and the basketball hit the backboard at the same time.

The referee whistled, and Fisher raised his hand to indicate that he was fouled.

This is the defensive strength of the championship level!

Kenny Smith grinned and said, "Fisher is so strong! Westbrook's body is already in such good shape that he can't hit him."

"This is a surefire ball in the past!"

Barkley shook his head with a sigh at this time and said: "This is why I think it is difficult for the Bucks to beat the Lakers."

"The Lakers have too many players with Finals experience. This foul is obviously worth it."

Westbrook stepped to the free throw line, took a deep breath, and made one of two free throws.

The must-go two points became one.

Zen Master off the court was extremely satisfied with this scene. He really wanted to say that Jiang was still hot after all, and the Bucks were obviously not the opponents of the Lakers in terms of experience.

The Lakers continued to attack.

Bryant still chose to support the high post to attract defensive attention, while letting Gasol play the pivot position of the triangle offense.

The triangle offensive tactic is a well-known star singles tactic. As long as the last offense is successful, the Lakers will continue to eat at this point.

Gasol received the ball at the waist, but the moment he received the ball he felt a great physical confrontation behind him, and this force forced him to take a step away from the penalty area.

"Rashid Wallace is tough on the ball defense!"

"This physical confrontation is very strong, just to prevent you Gasol from getting close to the basket easily!"

At this time, Su Qun also introduced to the audience in front of the TV that Rasheed Wallace was once one of the Pistons' Five Tigers, and Gasol really shouldn't think he is sure of him!

　It's a new month, brothers, vote for it.

　　muah.

　　Another ten thousand during the day.
