NBA: I really just want to be a second-in-command

Chapter 118 [Openly reject! 】

Lu Yusheng believed that it was already the middle of the first quarter, and there was really no need for Kobe to continue playing singles like this.

This is a great consumption of his own physical strength, and it is not friendly to other teammates, after all, everyone cannot participate in the offense.

Moreover, in the last round, he had already shot short, which showed that his physical strength was exhausted.

Therefore, this round, Lu Yusheng made up his mind and refused to pass the ball to Kobe. He felt that he should organize his tactics and let other teammates participate.

He remembered Westbrook's advice to him that point guards must have their own opinions on the court.

This kid still has the foresight.

This outrageous detail on the field was quickly captured by the camera.

William Jones exclaimed, "Oh, it's interesting, this kid actually rejected Kobe's request for the ball. He seemed to mean to pick and roll and let him initiate the tactics himself. This guy is not small."

"Judging from Kobe's mouth shape, he probably didn't say anything good, but Lu seemed to pretend he didn't hear it."

Seeing this situation, Wharton hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly brought it up for Lu Yusheng to pick and roll.

After the pick-and-roll, the Heat actually chose to double-team Lu Yusheng directly!

Lu Yusheng couldn't help but be overjoyed.

The Heat obviously didn't do any homework about Lu Yusheng before the game, but if they did a little, they would know that Lu Yusheng was already familiar with the double-teaming.

After all, even Kobe can't help but learn from him.

Therefore, there was hardly any difficulty, and Lu Yusheng directly passed the ball to Luke Wharton from the gap between the two double teams.

Walton was absolutely open. After receiving the ball, he dribbled the ball inside, attracted the double-team, and passed it directly to Odom.

Odom took the ball, and O'Neal inside could only come out to defend.

Odom passed the ball to Bynum, and Bynum immediately completed a powerful dunk under the basket! !
Williams said with a smile, "It seems that Lu didn't pass the ball to Kobe for a reason. He probably thought about how to play the ball a long time ago. One thing to say, the pass that hit the ground just now was very beautiful. "

Larry Bird also said, "The ball just now, except for Kobe, passed through the hands of four Lakers, allowing the other four to participate in the offense. This is what the Lakers need now."

Back on the Heat's offensive possession, O'Neal immediately started asking for the ball.

Just now Bynum blasted the basket in the paint so that he was very upset, he must retaliate one.

But Bynum was so fierce that he was not allowed to go to the restricted area at all.

He could only get the ball in a higher position.

After getting the ball, Bynum's top defense is still fierce.

But O'Neal's strength is not vegetarian, he immediately dribbled in and crushed it.

This blow was too hard, and Bynum fell to the ground directly!

beep~~
The referee's whistle blows.

Everyone looked, it was O'Neill's offensive foul!
O'Neill spread his hands helplessly, "Referee, this bastard is definitely flopping, please, I haven't even exerted my strength yet."

But the referee didn't listen to his excuse, the Lakers had the ball.

After Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball for halftime, Kobe didn't ask for the ball this time.

It seems that Kobe also thinks that he organized the ball just now well.

As usual, Wharton came up to play a pick-and-roll for Lu Yusheng.

After this pick-and-roll, the Heat did not dare to double-team Lu Yusheng, but chose to switch defenses.

Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball to the opponent's third position, Dorell Wright.

He was going to pass the ball to Walton and let him go to the big and small opposite White Chocolate, but he glanced at Dorell Wright and didn't pass the ball again.

Although Dorell Wright didn't speak, he looked at Lu Yusheng with disdain.

This point can also be fully reflected in his defensive actions.

The most basic thing about big defense and small is to lower the center of gravity, which is the most basic common sense.

But Dorell Wright didn't even lower his center of gravity when facing Lu Yusheng, but just opened his hands symbolically.

Obviously, he disdains Lu Yusheng, a yellow-skinned defender.

Damn, gotta give his color a look.

Lu Yusheng started to dribble. He first made a few simple dribbles in front of him.

Dorrell didn't move at all, and his eyes were even more disdainful.

That's it?

Although he is a No. [-] player, he has both strength and speed. He claims to be able to defend from No. [-] to No. [-].

Therefore, for a Chinese defender like Lu Yusheng, he didn't pay attention at all.

He stretched out his hand, and even started to look for the opportunity to break Lu Yusheng's ball.

Lu Yusheng began to dribble the ball under the crotch greatly, but Dorrell Wright still thought that Lu Yusheng was bluffing, and did not change the center of gravity at all.

"Rookie, don't dribble, just pass the ball, your dribble even your grandma..."

Dorell Wright originally wanted to say that Lu Yusheng's dribbling was not even for his grandma.

But before he finished speaking, Lu Yusheng suddenly accelerated, and disappeared from him in an instant...

Dorrell stayed where he was, not even turning around.

After Lu Yusheng dribbled in, Wade had no choice but to step forward to defend.

Lu Yusheng was not greedy for merit, and directly distributed the ball to the unguarded Kobe.

Kobe made a simple mid-range shot and scored easily!
"Isn't it easier to score goals like this?"

When returning to defense, Lu Yusheng said to Kobe.

"Shut your mouth!" Kobe didn't appreciate it.

O'Neal ran forward and said to Dorell Wright, "Asshole, what are you doing, MF? Aren't you always bragging about your defense? How did you let that rookie pass by with one step? Quickly cheer up, you The bastard!"

"I just wasn't careful, and I won't next time," explained Dorell Wright.

Heat attack.

White Chocolate wanted to continue feeding O'Neal the ball, but Bynum still insisted on Zen Master's arrangement and pushed O'Neal outside the penalty area. Although O'Neal finally received the ball, it was not in the area where he directly attacked the basket.

After O'Neal received the ball, he was no longer as anxious as before, and pushed steadily inside.

In terms of strength, the young Bynum is obviously not O'Neal's opponent. Although he tried his best, he was still pushed in by O'Neal.

When he reached O'Neal's offensive comfort zone, he turned around and leaned against Bynum with his left hand, and his right hand was about to hook!
But at this moment, Odom suddenly flanked him, appeared on his side, and slapped the ball!

If it was someone else, the ball would have been shot off, but O'Neill was not shot off. Even, this shot did not stop him from completing the hook shot, and the ball was successfully thrown.

It's just that it was disturbed after all, and it was short!
Bynum and Odom rushed to grab the rebound!

But O'Neal jumped up and took off the rebound directly over Odom's head!
Although it is no longer a peak shark, the bounce and speed are still terrifying!
After taking off the rebound, O'Neal made another tip-up!
But Odom and Bynum interfered at the same time!

This ball is still not scored!

On the contrary, Lu Yusheng from the side accidentally picked up the rebound.

After taking the rebound, Lu Yusheng noticed from the corner of his eye that Kobe was about to go down immediately!
He didn't even look at Kobe, he just threw a long pass!

After Kobe received the ball, Wade ran all the way to follow, but Kobe in the fast break didn't give him any chance at all, so he got up and dunked!
Wade was afraid of losing the foul, so he had to dodge.

Whistle!

The Heat requested a timeout.

"I have to say that Zen Master's formation is still a bit of a theory. In the few rounds after the timeout, the Lakers played very well. Not only did they successfully limit the Heat's offense, but their own offense blossomed. , which made Pat Riley a bit unacceptable," William Jones said.

Larry Bird said, "Jones, this is not only due to Zen Master. Obviously, the No. 6 rookie of the Lakers played a big role after he came on the court. First of all, he successfully restricted Dwyane Wade on the defensive end. You know, before that timeout, the reason why they were overtaken by the Heat was because Smush Parker couldn't restrain Wade, allowing Wade to use his breakthrough to continuously drive his teammates."

"After No. 6 came on the court, he restricted Wade's breakthrough in the first round, which made Wade unable to continue to drive his teammates to score in these rounds. On the offensive end, Lu also successfully used him. The pick-and-roll tactic liberated Kobe, sent three assists in three consecutive rounds, and this is his contribution after he came on the court."

"Yeah, now it seems that in the next game, the Heat will not be easy to play." William Jones asked.

"No, no, it's too early to draw conclusions. It depends on the adjustment of the Heat. After all, they still have an absolute advantage in strength. I think they were disrupted by the Lakers, the No. 6 rookie, in the past few rounds. , so I was in a hurry,

Especially for O'Neal, he should be calmer. The Lakers obviously have a strategy against him, but he doesn't seem to take this into consideration. He played too anxiously in both offenses.Pat Riley should have seen this, so he called this timeout. When I think of a timeout, Pat Riley will definitely remind O'Neal and Wade. "

Pause ends, game continues!
To Lu Yusheng's surprise, after the timeout ended, the Heat replaced Haslem at the fourth position and directly replaced another guard, Harris Quinn.

Lu Yusheng was a little puzzled by Pat Riley's substitution. Putting three guards on the field, is this going to play outside?
But they obviously have a center like O'Neal, why do they play outside?

Heat attack.

O'Neal asked for the ball again, but Bynum still resisted. The first time O'Neal got the ball, the other Heat teammates quickly pulled away!

Lu Yusheng instantly understood Pat Riley's intention for this substitution!
Replaced with three guards, plus Dorell Wright at the third position, they all have long-range shooting ability.

When they pulled out to the outside, the Lakers defended their players and didn't dare to take the risk of double-teaming O'Neal.

In this way, a larger singles space was created for O'Neill.

Sure enough, this time, when O'Neal ate Bynum alone, the Lakers could no longer help defend.

O'Neal scored the ball easily against Bynum's defense!

"The reason is very simple. When you want to play inside, you must first have a good outside to attract firepower. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the inside is, it will be difficult to play a role in the opponent's defense. Pat Riley's replacement His purpose is very clear, that is to beat O'Neal." Larry Bird said.

Lakers attack!

Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball halfway, and Wharton originally planned to bring him up for the pick-and-roll, but this time, Lu Yusheng waved his hand and refused.

He dribbles straight to Odom.

Without any hesitation, he lobbed the ball directly to Odom.

Small lineup, the Lakers also used it to defend the Supersonic three-pointer before, so Lu Yusheng naturally knows that his weakness lies in his height.

And Odom is currently facing the opponent's third position, Dorell Wright, who is almost a head higher than Dorell.

Odom took the ball directly and dribbled inward.

Dorrell couldn't guard Odom at all, and was pushed straight back!

When he was very close to the basket, Odom turned around and shot a hook!
Dorrell didn't even jump up to block the shot, he couldn't move because Odom pinned him tightly behind him.

However, behind Dorrell!

O'Neal suddenly fell from the sky and slapped the shot hard!

"This is why Pat Riley dared to use such a small lineup. Shaq's defensive coverage in the interior is too great. Even if Dorell can't stop Odom's big play, at least there is O'Neal in the interior. ’” Larry Bird said.

And back to the Heat's offensive round, when O'Neal got the ball inside again, their other teammates still quickly moved towards the outside.

This made the Lakers still dare not go up to double-team O'Neal. O'Neal walked in against Bynum, and suddenly turned around unexpectedly and directly wiped Bynum!
An earth-shaking, powerful dunk! !

Lu Yusheng felt that at this time, Master Zen should call a timeout and then discuss the tactics to restrict O'Neal. After all, these two single hits really hurt the morale of the Lakers.

The home fans were silenced.

But unexpectedly, the Zen master sat there, motionless.

It seems that O'Neal's continuous single eating will not pose a threat to the Lakers at all.

For a moment, Lu Yusheng couldn't figure out what the old man was thinking.

Lakers offense.

After Lu Yusheng found the dribble and crossed the half court, he hesitated for a while, not knowing what tactic to play.

Originally, in the current situation on the court, it was most appropriate for Odom to play big and small, but last time Odom was deflated, this time he didn't even actively ask for the ball.

Lu Yusheng had no choice but to pass the ball to Wharton to play a triangle offense.

But the Heat currently have a small lineup on the field, so they can switch defenses infinitely, without giving the rest of the Lakers a chance to run out of space.

Wharton held the ball for a long time, but couldn't pass it out. There was not much time left, so he could only leave it to Kobe to solve it.

Kobe caught the ball in the last five seconds, faced Wade's close defense, dribbled and moved, and finally failed to shake off Wade's brown sugar-like defense, so he could only make a strong shot against him in the last second!
This ball...

Still scored!

The Staples Center, which had been silent for a long time, finally burst into cheers.

However, Lu Yusheng knew that although the goal was scored, the Lakers' problem had not really been resolved.

On the defensive end, O'Neal can't be restricted. On the offensive end, do we have to always count on Kobe to shoot such a fairy ball?

This is not realistic.
