NBA restricted area bulldozer

Chapter 725

With no other choice, Harris had no choice but to bite the bullet and go up to Rodman, taking on the same task as Ben, and let Li Shengli continue to stare at Garnett, and the tactics were initialized to the beginning.

However, Rodman is no better than Big Ben.

Fouls can be committed, but if you really want to hold O'Neal like Ben and get rushed to the basket to commit another foul, the 'aging' Rodman is too difficult, but O'Neal is sure about this... let go Hands and feet, just hit Rodman, even if he is fouled, it doesn't matter, because if Rodman is also forced to commit 5 or even 6 fouls, then Li Shengli must come back, and Garnett will be liberated!

Of course, the premise of such a choice is that his free throws are better. At present, it can reach the level of 2 out of 1. This kind of efficiency is low, but acceptable.

So, Rodman didn't last a quarter and graduated directly.

Li Shengli can only go back to the defensive end to deal with O'Neal, and watch Garnett make crazy jump shots outside. Because the main players of both sides rotated in a small range in the second quarter, there is no need to consider physical problems, so it is very likely that Garnett Will keep fighting like this.

As for the Lakers at this time...

Leading by 6 points from the first half!

In the second half, Garnett broke out and filled the gap!

When Li Shengli marked Garnett, Rodman fouled O'Neal and led by 5 points!

In the end, Garnett scored twice and made consecutive jump shots to fill the gap again. There were only 3 minutes left in the game, and in the last 3 minutes... Garnett was in a hot state and did not forget to tease Barkley , which made Barkley even more angry, but there was nothing he could do.

Until the last moment, even Li Shengli had nothing to do, and lost another 3 points in the second game.

……

The Lakers lost two games in a row? !

You must know that the first two wins in the finals are not only a great chance of winning in the end, but also a psychological advantage. After this game... Lakers fans simply cannot accept the current score. After returning to Los Angeles , Before the third game, Harris was sprayed into a Muggle by fans and the media.

In the first game, the voices condemning Harris were not so loud, because the state of the Lakers' generals did have problems.

But after the second game, the voice couldn't be suppressed anymore, because there was something wrong with the defensive arrangement in this game.

There is no state of the pot, basically it can be concluded that Harris was too aggressive tactically and took the initiative to get rid of Daben, and then Barkley couldn't suppress Garnett's jumper, but Daben graduated after Rodman After that, it was full of crimes, and there was no extra power to limit Garnett.

……

What's going on?

Li Shengli never thought that it would be the current situation.

If they really lose another game, the Celtics will take the lead in getting the match point.

At that time, you don't need to think about how much psychological pressure will be on everyone, because the Lakers are not only competing with this league's old enemy, but also a contest between the two-time champion Lakers and the triple-time champion Lakers.

No one needs to say much about this.

After returning to Los Angeles, the management and coaching staff quickly convened. Before the catastrophe, there was no infighting or mutual accusation, just discussing how to play the next game, and the 0:2 start of the finals was already very unfavorable, which was not good for everyone. Everyone thinks that the Lakers' chance of making a comeback is only... [-]%, or even more than [-]%.

Play the third game on the 21st.

Because of the losses in the first two games, Harris' tactics that were not wrong were directly abandoned by everyone, including Harris himself, because he really couldn't afford it, and the Celtics' starting lineup in the third game didn't change much. But the Lakers have changed. Li Shengli and Barkley combined, and Rodman was not used as a small forward, but Fox, who has a strong offensive ability.

The reason why I didn't get into the big book!

Basically, it is the choice of defense and offense, but before choosing, you have to look at Garnett's state in this game before making a decision. Unfortunately, Garnett is still very efficient, and Harris adjusted the lineup in just half a quarter. Put Big Ben on the court and let Barkley go to the third position.

At this time, there is no reason not to fight!

But the problem is that Garnett exploded in two games in a row. Celtics coach Pitino was also prepared. He directly pinched O'Neal's part and shot it to Garnett, letting the nearby people cover his projection. There is no way to make sense at all, Garnett went straight to the pinnacle of his life.

After playing the whole game, Garnett scored 33 points, which is not too high or too exaggerated.

But behind the 33 points is the Lakers' desperate interception. Although Li Shengli once again misplaced defense with Daben, O'Neal played high, and his consecutive free throws may approach 70, while Daben's defense is only hard. Repeat.

Playing until the end, the Lakers lost again in Game 7, losing by [-] points.

……

So far, this finals has surprised the entire United States!

I thought the game situation would be very anxious, and the big score would be clinging on, but now the anxiety is only in a certain period of time in a single game, and on the whole... the Celtics have changed the league's prior to the finals. The 4% chance of winning has become the current infinitely close to the top of the league.

Let three chase four?

Can the 0:3 come back?

No, it doesn't exist at all!

Not to mention the finals, but if you add up all the 7-game playoffs in history, nothing like this has ever happened. After the first three games of the finals, the most exaggerated media reports are... The Celtics have a 99.9% chance of winning the championship. O'Neal ushered in the first championship in his life, and the peak Green Army in the 90s rose.

Although it is not convincing to simply count the games over the years, it is not convincing to use probability, but there are objective laws behind this statistics, because 0:3 means that the Lakers are walking on the edge of a cliff, and there can be no slightest chance. Mistakes, one slip into eternal hatred, into broken bones.

Walking the cliff once is not terrible, life is over!

But what's scary is such a cliff, the Lakers have to walk four times to get to the top!

It stands to reason that if the finals want to achieve the current situation, the strength gap between the two teams should not be small, but the problem is that in the eyes of all fans and the media, the gap between Hu Kai's strength and weakness is not so big, even the defeated Lakers at this stage Also stronger.

But think about it carefully...

It seems that the Celtics were not so strong before the finals, including the regular season.

But in the finals, they broke through the upper limit of strength in three consecutive games, not only Garnett's ferocity, but also O'Neal's sudden improvement in free throws.

……

After playing on the 21st, the Los Angeles fans on the 22nd exploded.

The demise of the purple and gold aces seems to be a foregone conclusion. There is nothing else in the sports headlines in the United States, and they are all bad-mouthing the Lakers. Even Boston is preparing to win the championship. After preparing for the fourth game with the intervention of league officials, what may happen... the Celtics summit event.

From the bottom of the valley to the top of the mountain!

It took West two seasons to build a championship team. This shortened season was the final sprint for the Triple Crown Dynasty, but what he didn't expect was... collapsed, the great dynasty was on the verge of collapse, and the fourth If it is not done well, it may be the premature death of the "Short-lived Dynasty" and die on the spot. If it is done better, it will be just a slow death.

So on this day, including the Lakers themselves, they were all in despair, from the management, down to the coaching staff and all the players. Unlike other people's despair, Li Shengli, who has always considered himself poor, felt anxious when he thought of the championship bonus. bleeding.
