Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 498 The Mysterious Guest
The Eastern and Western finals have all come to an end.

The only regret is that the Eastern Conference team that finally entered the finals was not the Cavaliers that everyone expected before the start of the game, but the Magic.

Finals G1 will start at the Lakers home court.

The 2-3-2 home court of the finals is obviously not good for the teams with better records.Once the first two games, lost any of the home games, it is not known whether they can return to the home game.

Before the start of the finals, the Magic ushered in a piece of good news, that is, their point guard who had been injured for a long time, Jameer Nelson returned from injury.This season can be said to be his golden season. Not only did he score a career high, but he was selected as a substitute in the Eastern Conference in the All-Star Game.

But during the season, a sudden injury caused him to only play 42 regular season games, and he was almost reimbursed for the season. If the team hadn't reached the finals, he would have been reimbursed for the season.

******
The screen switches to Los Angeles, inside the Lakers training facility.

"Li, how is your recovery?" Phil was most worried about Li Tian's health.

"It's okay, I'm back to my best condition!" As he said, he hit a super long three-pointer, which was his best proof.

"Haha, that's good!" Phil was very happy. In the finals, he felt that there was no need to hide it anymore. He wanted to make a big move.

"Let's go, Kobe is waiting for us in the conference room. Although the Magic is not strong, they will stand out from the East and beat the Celtics and Cavaliers, and they will not be weak!"

After a while, there were still so many people sitting in the conference room, the teaching assistants, Kobe and Gasol.

The assistant coach gave a detailed introduction to the Magic. They played a one-star team. Of course, Turkoglu's support in the center is very similar to Gasol's position in the Lakers.The Magic have initiated many tactics, all of which will go through his hands.

"Tell me what you think?"

You look at me, I look at you, the meeting room was silent for a moment, no one spoke.

"Uh, you haven't paid me last season's salary yet, so you don't want me to work again, do you?" Seeing everyone's gazes, he immediately knew what everyone was thinking.

"Haha, don't blot out the ink, the tactics specified by the coaching staff have already exceeded my brain capacity, so it's up to you!" Gasol laughed, shaking his flowing long hair a few times.

"All right!"

I looked at the Magic's technical statistics again.

"This round of the series, if we can lock Howard, then we have won 90%!" Li Tian said.

"It's up to you to say. How to deal with him is the most important thing. Even I can see it. Hurry up and tell me what to do to lock him up!"

"First of all, Bynum is back in the starting lineup. Howard is an insider with rough skills, and he is still a meat shield. He needs to resist the impact of the insider." He looked at the technical statistics again and frowned.

He rubbed his eyes with his hands, with a broken expression on his eyes.

"FUCK! When did this guy's free throws get so good?"

Li Tian pointed to Howard's free throw data in the regular season and playoffs this season.In the regular season, he averaged nearly 11 free throws per game, made 6 of them, and made nearly 60% of them.Unexpectedly, in the playoffs, he played even more inhuman statistics. He averaged 10 free throws per game, but made 6.3 free throws, and his shooting percentage reached nearly 64%. Don't underestimate these 4 percentage points.

You must know that last season, this guy's free throw shooting percentage in the regular season was 60%, but in the playoffs, his shooting percentage dropped by 6 percentage points, and this season it actually increased.

"We are at a disadvantage if we want to use foul tactics against him. However, at critical moments, we can also try foul tactics as an alternative, or foul at the beginning. His hit rate.

We still have a secret weapon, but the team needs to pay some price, I don't know if the team is willing or not. "Li Tian began to analyze Howard.

"The price? What is the price? Let me talk about it first. Bynum will definitely be mentioned in the starting lineup. Against Yao Ming, he is completely blown out in terms of technology, but Howard is a player who has no skills and relies entirely on his body. Bynum's defense He is the best choice, and he can liberate Gasol!" He also intends to do this, and Bynum's return to the starting lineup in the finals is also one of the conditions agreed between him and Bynum.

"At least ten, first volleyball tickets, we can invite Yao Ming and ask him to introduce how we can restrict Howard very well." Li Tian threw out a heavy news.

If anyone in the league is the best at playing Howard, it must be Yao Ming. No matter what state he is in, he can have the upper hand against Howard.

"There are only ten tickets, no problem at all, I agree to this condition!" Kobe was the first to stand up, saying that this is not a problem, he can cover everything.

"Kobe, I'm talking about 10 tickets for each game at home, and they're in the front row, not the back!" Li Tian specially emphasized that if you give the tickets to Yao Ming, it won't work.

"No problem, this is not a problem, 10 away games are difficult, but there is absolutely no problem at home!" Bryant said.

"I'll call Brother Yao later, and we'll continue to analyze other players."

The Magic started the Five Tigers, plus Nelson who returned from injury.

Once the biggest questions have been addressed, it's time to start analyzing each player.

The magic team's tactic is to shoot all stars. Simply put, it depends on Howard's state. Howard decides everything about the team. He has just found a way to limit Howard to the maximum.

In addition to Howard, the team has two other scoring points, Lewis and Turkoglu.They are the engine of the team and the No. [-] scoring point. The scoring of the three accounts for more than half of the team's scoring.

If you want to win, the best way is to limit the three-point scoring and Nelson who has returned from injury.

How to restrict Howard has been discussed before, and the next step is to restrict these two people.

Power forward Gasol from the Lakers, Turkoglu from the Magic, the roles of the two on the team are very similar.

They are all the top three scoring points of the team, the one who dominates the team's ball possession in the team's offensive system.Gasol has a great advantage against him. Whether it is experience or ability, he is stronger than Turkoglu, which can be said to be a complete victory.

Lewis is a small forward, so it is easier to restrict. The Lakers have Li Tian as the starter, and Ariza as the backup. They are all players who are good at defense. It's just that Li Tian grows faster in the back, and now he has become an offensive and defensive player.

At the back line, there is no need to compare at all. The Magic's Courtney Lee and the "streetball king" Alston are not at the same level when facing Kobe and Fisher. Of course, if it is Alston's peak period, he can still Caused some threats to the Lakers, but now Alston is old.

"Our defensive task is mainly on the inside. With Kobe on the outside defense, there is no need to worry at all. Bynum is the main defense against Howard. At the same time, players in other positions must do a good job in assisting defense, and can properly double-team and foul!" Phil Said, Li Tian has already said the most important part, and he needs to supplement the rest accordingly.

"The bench lineup is also our advantage. Ariza's three-pointers and defense, as well as Odom's ability to create offense. Look at the Magic's bench players, Pietrus and Nelson, they can also bring us a lot threat!" Li Tian pointed to the technical statistics of the Magic's substitute players.

Pietrus often has wonderful performances. In the first few rounds, he averaged around 11 points per game. When Nelson comes back, it is hard to say whether the state will be the same as before, so it needs to be taken seriously. It would be a joke if Nelson, who had come back more, killed him suddenly with a cold arrow.

"That's true. It seems that the finals are a severe test for outside substitute players. Whoever defends well will get more chances to play!" Phil said.

A group of people chatted for nearly two hours, roughly analyzing the lineup and matchup of the two teams very clearly.

"This is the end of today, Li, you have to contact Yao in time to see what good advice they can give us!" The most important task is to Li Tian.

"Brother Yao, have you returned to Houston?" Li Tian called Yao Ming immediately after leaving the conference room.

"Not yet, but I am going to return to Houston. After dealing with some things, I will take a short vacation to recover. At the same time, I will communicate with the team about the draft and some developments of the team, and then we will start Consider offseason training." After the game, Yao Ming did not fly back to Houston in a hurry, he needed to sort out some things and be prepared to deal with the management before returning to Houston.

"Don't go back now, I have something, I need to ask you for advice!" He said very modestly, like a primary school student meeting a university teacher.

"Hey, there is no conspiracy. You want to ask me for advice? I heard it right." Yao Ming's first reaction was that this guy was trying to bully me again.

"Nonsense, how could it be possible to perineum you, you are my big brother, if not" a long string of rainbow farts was presented, trying to please.

"Let's lie, I still remember that the Lakers bombardment a few days ago was all your idea!"

"Hey, it's up to each other. This time I'm here to ask you some questions. Do you have time tomorrow to come to the Lakers training facility?"

I was still a little worried about being rejected by Yao Ming, but Yao Ming did not return to Houston, which proved that he wanted to watch the finals.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Ask me, how did you do it, so easily suppress Howard."

"Haha, what you said, I suddenly remembered that I'm going back to Houston tomorrow. McGrady asked me to have dinner with me, and I already agreed." He expressed regret.

"Brother Yao, we are very sincere. I have covered all your family's tickets to the finals. How about it? Is this sincerity enough?" It's time to release the bait.

"I still have the money for a few tickets!"

It's just that the price is too low.

"Come on, 10 front volleyball tickets for each game, and then we will train together during the offseason, what do you think?" It's not a business negotiation, there is no need to give chips bit by bit.

"Haha, let me tell you earlier. I'll call McGrady later and tell him to wait a few days for the treat. It shouldn't be a big problem."

"That's a good relationship, I welcome you tomorrow, come and guide me!"

"Okay, okay, make sure to arrive early in the morning!"

Hang up the phone, finally done.
