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

Chapter 79 [The decisive moment! 】

What Alan Houston didn't expect was that Lu Yusheng suddenly dribbled the ball and turned around with his back to Monta Ellis when there was no room for a throw!
Christopher said in surprise, "Lu is also...back to back against Ellis?!"

That's right, in the situation just now, Lu Yusheng had only one option, and that was to play with his back in the low post.

Although Odom also felt a little surprised, he had no choice but to give way to Lu Yusheng.

Although this trick has been practiced recently, it is still not fully mastered.

After all, this low-post singles technique requires hard work, and even that man needs to learn from Dameng Olajuwon, not to mention him as a recruit.

However, Lu Yusheng felt that he could give Monta Ellis a try. After all, Lu Yusheng's height and weight were almost the same as Monta Ellis's, but Lu Yusheng still had a slight advantage in terms of strength.

While dribbling the ball backwards, Lu Yusheng used his legs to sense Ellis' center of gravity according to the essentials Kobe explained.

But he was surprised to find that he couldn't feel the opponent's center of gravity at all!

After all, Monta Ellis is already very familiar with this move, so of course he knows the hurdle of this move, and he will not use all his strength to hit it, otherwise it will be easy for the opponent to turn around and pass by.

But if you don't need to push it with all your strength, Lu Yusheng's strength is better than him, and he directly pushed Ellis in and leaned in!

Seeing this, the other players of the Warriors began to try to interfere and help defend.

"No, I can guard against him!" Monta Ellis said confidently!
Monta Ellis was quite confident. After all, everyone now knew that Lu Yusheng's biggest weakness was unstable shooting.

This guy can't even shoot normally, let alone this kind of fadeaway jumper that makes it more difficult.

So he was confident that he could defend alone, and even if he didn't interfere, Lu Yusheng might not be able to make the shot.

When Lu Yusheng felt that he had pushed into his attack area, he suddenly turned around!

Monta Ellis decided that he was a fake, so he didn't take off.

But unexpectedly, after turning around, Lu Yusheng directly caught a small throw with his right hand!
scored!

Monta Ellis was dumbfounded, what is this?
Of course, Lu Yusheng also knew that in today's situation, ordinary jump shots could not be made, and fadeaway jump shots were even more unstable.

Therefore, when he enters the area where he can throw, he turns around and makes a small throw.

Even Alan Houston laughed at this move, "He is turning around and jumping, and this guy Lu is turning around and throwing. This is really an unexpected technical move for me."

Christopher also laughed, "I found out that this kid Lu is really smart in playing basketball. Even in such small details, he can find ways to maximize his strengths and avoid weaknesses. It's really surprising."

"This is probably the basketball wisdom of Asian players." Alan Houston said, "Yao Ming actually played this way at the beginning. He was very smart. When he faced a heavy center like Shaquille O'Neal, he would choose to pull out to shoot and try to avoid it. Going up against him, and when he's going up against smaller centers than him, he's just going to crush them with his body."

"That's right," Christopher said with a smile, "but I think Lu still lacks something better about Yao Ming."

"Oh? What is it?"

"It's just that you rarely see Yao Ming competing with his opponent on the court. When the opponent hits you, you have to pay back the opponent. His focus seems to be how to win the game all the time. I admire him very much. place."

"How should I put it, this is indeed Yao Ming's strength, but Chris, you have to admit that if you are too calm, the game will lose a lot of highlights. For example, in our current game, the biggest highlight is actually the contest between the stars. If they can compete with each other, it will be even more exciting. For example, I look forward to meeting Kobe and Tracy McGrady every year, and the ratings of their games are indeed high, because they can't help but secretly compete. It will make the game more tense," Allan Houston said.

"No, no, I don't agree with what you said, because Kobe didn't just compete with McGrady, he competed with almost everyone, that guy even competed with himself." Christopher said.

Alan Houston laughed, "That's right, that's true, but that's why we love that guy."

"We've gotten a little too far, Houston, let's get back to the point. The score between the two sides is now tense again. Halfway through the fourth quarter, who do you think will win the game next?"

"It's really hard to predict now," Houston said, "I thought the Warriors might lose, but Nelson's change at the beginning of the fourth quarter revitalized the Warriors' offense, so I'll have enough rest later. With Baron Davis back on the court again, it's hard to say who will win."

"No, we both have to support a team." Christopher laughed.

"Then I'm still optimistic about the Warriors."

"What's the reason?"

"The reason is very simple," Alan Houston said, "Davis the Beard got plenty of rest. When he has physical strength, his breakthrough is unsolvable for the Lakers and Lu, so I think the Warriors have more advantages." Bigger."

In the next game, the score between the Lakers and Warriors continued to be anxious.

Taking advantage of a foul, Zen master replaced Lu Yusheng, allowing him to have a short rest.

After Lu Yusheng left the field, Smush Parker could hardly defend Monta Ellis at all.

Monta Ellis accomplished his task very well. During his time on the court, the Warriors bit the score tightly and won valuable rest time for Baron Davis.

In the middle of the fourth quarter, when the official timeout came, the Warriors replaced Baron Davis, and Nelson did not let Monta Ellis off the court to rest, but kept him on the court.

This is the time to close the competition, of course Lu Yusheng understands.

Zen Master also replaced Lu Yusheng without hesitation.

The decisive moment has come!

The commentator Christopher said excitedly, "So far, the excitement of this game has completely exceeded our expectations before the game. Whether it is the performance of the players on both sides or the game in terms of skills and tactics, they are all very exciting. Once the main lineup was replaced, it seems that the most important 4 minutes to determine the outcome of the game are coming, let us wait and see!"

The game continues!

Warriors attack!

Baron Davis played point guard, and Monta Ellis returned to his familiar [-] position.

Facing Lu Yusheng's defense, Baron Davis began to dribble.

After getting enough rest for a full half quarter, when Baron Davis returned to the court again, his state was obviously different from before. His dribbling rhythm and direction change were obviously increased!

But to his surprise, this time, he still couldn't break through Lu Yusheng as easily as before.

It's not because Lu Yusheng's defense has become stronger, but because during the timeout, Zen Master specially arranged defensive tactics for Davis.

When Lu Yusheng was defending Davis, Luke Wharton and Vujacic on both sides of Lu Yusheng would make false moves to assist Davis at any time to interfere with Davis, which made the bearded man dare not break through recklessly for a while. Lu Yusheng.

Seeing this, Alan Houston immediately said, "Wonderful, wonderful! I didn't expect Zen master to change his formation, just like before Nelson targeted Lu Yusheng, and specially designed a defensive tactic for him. This is also the result of Zen master's unsolvable breakthrough against Baron Davis. Designed defensive tactics."

"It seems that this is a good move. Davis looks a little at a loss, and he doesn't know where to break through." Christopher said, "But such a good defensive tactic, why didn't Zen master come up with it earlier, and didn't come out until now. ?”

"It's very simple, because this trick is not very friendly to the players on both sides of the defense. They must not only ensure that they do not lose control of their defenders, but also constantly interfere with Davis. They have to run back and forth at both ends. This consumes physical strength. It is very big, if used in advance, Wharton and Vujacic's physical strength is simply not enough to last until now. Moreover, if used in advance, it will give the opponent time to adapt."

"Understood, Zen Master is really old-fashioned. He has long thought of a defensive strategy against Davis, but he didn't use it before. He didn't use it until the game was critical."

Sure enough, facing the Lakers' sudden targeted defense on the field, Davis did not find a breakthrough space, so he had no choice but to pass the ball to Monta Ellis.

After Monta Ellis received the ball, Vujacic marked him tightly. He could only play a pick-and-roll with Stephen Jackson. After the pick-and-roll, there was not enough time, so he had to shoot by himself!
But this ball is solid.

It's the Lakers' turn to attack!
