Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

The timeout ended and the players stood up from the bench, ready to get back into the fight.

But at this moment, the fans' attention is not only focused on the players who are about to return to the court, but also attracted by the two famous commentators in the commentary booth - Yang Yi and Wang Meng.

They took an in-depth look at the major adjustments the Nets made during the timeout.

"It seems that the Nets are really going to change their lineup this time." Yang Yi adjusted his glasses, with a hint of expectation in his eyes. "Claxton and Robinson, these two inside players are on the court at the same time, forming a rare inside twin towers. When this pair stands in the penalty area, it's like a wall!"

Wang Meng nodded and took over the conversation: "That's right, Lao Yang. You see, before, the Lakers' James, Wall and Davis could get whatever they wanted under the basket, but now, facing such a twin tower inside, it is not so easy for them to score easily."

"Indeed, the Nets' adjustment this time is very targeted." Yang Yi continued, "Claxton's flexibility and Robinson's strength, the combination of the two, almost blocked all the Lakers' offensive routes in the interior. It has to be said that this is a very effective strategy for the Lakers' current lineup."

Wang Meng analyzed from a more comprehensive perspective: "Compared with the previous combination of Cousins ​​and Porzingis, although Claxton and Robinson lack outside shooting ability and their offensive space may be limited to a certain extent, their defensive ability in the restricted area has been greatly enhanced. Moreover, don't forget that the Nets also have three shooting masters on the outside: Brunson, Mitchell and LeVert. With such a lineup, both offense and defense are quite balanced. I'm afraid the Lakers will really encounter a lot of trouble this time."

The two's analysis sparked heated discussions among the audience and fans watching on TV.

Everyone appreciated the Nets' bold lineup change and were looking forward to the upcoming game.

Yang Yi suddenly changed the subject and said mysteriously, "However, having said that, basketball games are never simply a matter of talking on paper. Although this lineup looks impeccable, its true effect will only be revealed in the game. Moreover, the Lakers are not pushovers, and they will definitely have their own response strategies."

Wang Meng laughed when he heard this: "Haha, Lao Yang is right. Games are always full of unknowns and variables. This is also the charm of basketball! However, as fans, we certainly hope to see more exciting matches and unexpected results."

This emotion infected everyone, and everyone couldn't wait to see the performance of the Nets' new lineup on the court.

As the players return to the field one after another, the game is about to resume.

Brunson controlled the ball and scanned every corner of the court with sharp eyes.

He is still facing the extremely fast and explosive Wall, who is obviously better at dealing with a guard like Brunson who is as agile as a loach than Bradley.

Brunson took a deep breath, knowing that he couldn't get rid of Wall by speed alone, and had to use other skills to create opportunities.

Brunson held the ball tightly, his body slightly arched, like a leopard ready to pounce.

Suddenly, he accelerated and rushed to the inside, but Wall followed closely behind him and did not give up.

At this critical moment, Brunson cleverly used a pick-and-roll to get rid of Wall's entanglement.

Brunson tried his best to break into the inside. Although speed was not his advantage, he successfully created an offensive space for himself with his excellent sense of rhythm.

Wall was left behind, but other Lakers players immediately stepped forward to double-team him.

Brunson was not in a hurry. He kept his eyes and ears open. Suddenly, he made a brilliant pass and passed the ball to LeVert at the 45-degree angle on the left.

After receiving the ball, LeVert jumped up and shot decisively without any hesitation.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in his hands, as gorgeous as a rainbow, and then went into the net with a "swish".

There was warm applause and cheers from the audience, and the Nets fans were ecstatic.

Looking back, James once again demonstrated his tank-like breakthrough ability.

Despite LeVert's defense, he strode towards the basket.

The superstar's strength and speed are amazing.

But the Nets' twin towers combination - Robinson and Claxton - are no pushovers.

They took their positions early and were ready for battle.

Seeing James breaking through with the ball, Robinson immediately stretched out his arms and jumped, and had a fierce physical confrontation with James in the air.

This confrontation is as fierce as Mars hitting the Earth.

Robinson's physique is definitely not exaggerated. With his powerful strength and excellent defensive skills, he made James suffer a lot.

Although James tried his best, his shot at the last moment hit the rim and missed.

The rebound was firmly secured by Clarkson on the other side.

With his keen sense of rebounding and excellent jumping ability, he successfully grabbed the ball.

At this moment, Nets fans once again burst into warm applause and cheers.

As soon as Claxton landed, he passed the ball to Brunson without hesitation, and the point guard immediately launched a quick counterattack.

After Brunson received the ball, he instantly accelerated and rushed forward.

He was extremely fast, like a bolt of lightning across the court.

At the same time, Mitchell and LeVert quickly followed up from the left and right sides, and the three formed a sharp arrow that went straight into the heart of the Lakers.

The Lakers defense obviously did not expect the Nets to launch a counterattack so quickly, and their formation was briefly in chaos.

Brunson keenly captured this opportunity and passed the ball accurately to LeVert again.

After LeVert received the ball, he rushed all the way to the basket from outside the three-point line without stopping.

LeVert's counterattack was extremely fast and agile, sweeping across the entire court like a whirlwind.

Facing Kuzma's assist defense, LeVert was not afraid at all. He made a layup and the ball went into the net.

"Shh!"

As soon as this ball went in, it was like a bombshell, causing huge waves in the hearts of the Lakers players.

The Nets fans at the scene were completely excited and cheered loudly, as if victory was within reach.

This warm atmosphere was in stark contrast to the Lakers players.

The Lakers players all looked pale and were completely stunned by the Nets' sharp attack.

Whether it was the five starters on the court or the role players on the bench, they all fell silent.

They seemed unable to believe that they were beaten by their opponents without any chance of fighting back in such a short time.

Even Lakers head coach Vogel looked pale, his lips tightly pursed, and his eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and confusion. He obviously did not expect the Nets to play such an efficient offense, which caught him off guard.

The Nets players were in high spirits, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.

In order to stabilize the situation, James deliberately slowed down the Lakers' offensive rhythm.

He knew that in such a tense game, impatience would only make things worse.

So he passed the ball to Davis in the interior, hoping that this inside giant could use his personal ability to open up the situation for the team.

After receiving the ball, Davis was also eager to help the team stop the bleeding.

He received the ball with his back to the basket and started playing one-on-one with all his strength.

He hit Robinson's chest with his back three times in a row and tried to kill his way into the three-second zone.

But Robinson is very strong and his defense is like an iron wall, making it difficult for Davis to get to the basket as easily as he does against other centers.

Davis had to adjust his strategy, trying to force a turn and find shooting space through a combination of rhythm and strength.

However, at the moment when Davis turned around and made a jump shot, Claxton on the weak side suddenly came over to help defend.

The young center was as agile as a cheetah. He jumped high and slapped the ball away at the moment Davis shot, completing a block that covered the entire sky.

The fans at the scene immediately exclaimed and cheered for Claxton's excellent defense. This block not only stopped the Lakers' offense, but also fanned the ball directly into Wall's hands.

After Wall got the ball, he rushed to the penalty area again, trying to save some face for the Lakers.

However, Clarkson had just landed and it was too late for him to jump again.

But Robinson on the side was in the best defensive position. He guarded the Nets' restricted area like a guardian angel.

Seeing Wall force a breakthrough and layup, Robinson jumped up and blocked another shot to Wall, slamming the ball hard out of the sideline.

"boom!"

In just one round, the Nets' twin towers blocked two shots in a row for the Lakers players, and the atmosphere on the scene was instantly ignited.

The fans cheered one after another, going crazy for the outstanding performance of the Nets twin towers.

The Lakers players looked frustrated. Their attack, which had originally been a sure win, was so easily resolved by the Nets' twin towers.

James looked at the situation on the court with a frown on his face, and the bitterness in his heart became more obvious.

This wonderful moment not only made the fans excited, but also made Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith in the commentary booth very excited.

"Wow! Look at these two big guys!" Charles Barkley shouted excitedly, "Claxton and Robinson, their physical fitness is really outstanding! Such a block is really amazing!"

Kenny Smith also did not hesitate to praise: "That's right, Charles, these two guys are really strong in defense! Their blocks are not only powerful, but also have perfect timing. It seems that Nets head coach Lu Yong's approach of putting these two twin towers on the court at the same time has really played a perfect role!"

Charles Barkley continued, "That's true, Kenny. Look at the expressions of the Lakers players. They are obviously intimidated by these two big men. The defense of Claxton and Robinson is like a solid wall under the basket, which makes the opponents afraid!"

At this time, the game on the court was temporarily stopped, James was preparing to throw the ball out of bounds, and the commentators continued to discuss the shocking scene just now.

"Coach Lu's tactical arrangement is really ingenious," Kenny Smith praised. "He knows how to maximize the advantages of the players. Putting Claxton and Robinson on the court at the same time not only enhances the Nets' defensive ability, but also creates tremendous psychological pressure on the opponent."

Charles Barkley nodded in agreement: "Yes, these two big men performed too well on the defensive end. With them on the court, the Nets' defensive tactics have become more diverse. Now it seems that it is not so easy for the Lakers to break through this line of defense."

...............

Far across the ocean in China, countless fans watched the game through live broadcast. They witnessed this shocking scene, and the live broadcast room instantly exploded.

"That's amazing! The inside twin towers of Claxton and Robinson are so strong!" a fan wrote excitedly in the live broadcast room.

This comment immediately resonated with other fans, who followed suit and expressed their appreciation for the two players.

"Did you see that block by Robinson? It was a feast of dribbles!" another fan said excitedly, his words full of affirmation of Robinson's defensive ability.

The comments in the live broadcast room surged like a tide, and each one was full of enthusiasm and excitement.

The fans' emotions rose and fell as the game progressed, and they reached a climax when Claxton and Robinson showed amazing defensive abilities.

"Claxton's block was so beautiful! He was like a flash of lightning, suddenly appearing in front of Davis and slapping the ball away with one slap!" A fan vividly described the moment of Claxton's block in the barrage, as if the scene was happening right in front of him.

"This twin tower combination is really the Nets' treasure! With them around, it's hard for the Lakers to break through and score easily!" another fan exclaimed.

The atmosphere in the live broadcast room became more and more heated, and the fans' emotions became more and more excited.

Not only did they express their appreciation for Claxton and Robinson in the barrage, they also started discussing the Nets' next game and the twin towers combination.

"I think Coach Lu Yong's adjustment this time is really wise! Putting Claxton and Robinson on the court at the same time not only enhances the defensive ability, but also makes the team's tactics more diversified." A veteran basketball fan analyzed.

"That's right! I'm really looking forward to James getting blocked! With these twin towers around, I feel like it will be hard for James to score!" another fan echoed excitedly.

There were some humorous comments in this discussion: "The Lakers must be dumbfounded now, right? Hahaha, the Nets lost their starting lineup and wanted to catch up with the main players as substitutes, but in the end they found out, damn, the substitutes are more powerful!"

………………

On the court, the Lakers served the ball out of bounds.

James passed the ball steadily, aiming for Kuzma who came out with the help of the screen to receive the ball.

At this moment, all eyes were focused on this young player, who carried the hopes and pressure of the Lakers.

The moment Kuzma received the ball, he felt not only the touch of the ball, but also the heavy responsibility.

He endured the boos from the audience, but his heart was extremely calm.

He knew he had to respond, not just for the team, but to prove his own worth.

Kuzma made a slight adjustment and then made a quick stop jump shot, his movements were smooth and decisive.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then went into the net with a "swish".

At this moment, Kuzma seemed to hear the sound of his own heartbeat, which was the desire for success and satisfaction with his own performance.

However, the game did not end there. With only one minute left in the second quarter, the Nets got an offensive opportunity.

This time, it was Mitchell who stood up and directly challenged Bradley from the outside.

Mitchell faced Bradley with a challenging gleam in his eyes, and made a series of fake moves in front of his body, trying to confuse his opponent.

Bradley stared at Mitchell closely, trying to find his flaws.

However, at the moment when Bradley's center of gravity shifted slightly, Mitchell suddenly started.

His first step was so fast that it was like a bolt of lightning across the court.

Bradley had no time to react and could only watch Mitchell easily pass him by.

At this moment, Mitchell seemed to have transformed into a man like the wind, galloping freely on the court.

Immediately afterwards, Mitchell also stopped suddenly at the mid-range position, took a deep breath, and adjusted his posture.

Then he took a long two-point jump shot, and the basketball drew a perfect arc in the air and went into the net.

"Shh!"

This goal seemed to be a response to Kuzma's goal, and it was also a perfect display of Mitchell's personal ability.

The Lakers launched an attack again, and the most dazzling star on the court, James, once again stood in center of the stage.

James dribbled the ball to the three-point line, suddenly stopped, and stared at the basket.

He took a deep breath, then jumped and shot without hesitation.

At this moment, the entire stadium seemed to be quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on this superstar.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and went straight to the basket.

LeVert was unable to react in time and could only raise his hand to interfere symbolically, but his action obviously could not stop this powerful three-pointer.

With a "swish", the basketball went into the net and James made a three-pointer from the top of the arc!
Seeing this scene, Yang Yi and Wang Meng couldn't help but start a heated discussion.

"James' three-point shooting this year is really good," Yang Yi said first. "In the regular season, his hit rate was 34.9%. He averaged 6.4 shots per game and made 2.2 three-pointers. This data is quite impressive for a player of his level."

"That's right," Wang Meng continued, "and after entering the playoffs, his three-point shooting percentage has increased to 38.7%, which is indeed a remarkable improvement."

Yang Yi nodded and continued, "So now the Nets can't let him get such a big space and shoot easily. They need to put more pressure on James and limit his shooting opportunities."

Wang Meng has a different view: "In fact, I think it's okay for the Nets to give James some space to shoot. Although he shot well from three-point range this season, he is not the kind of player who can kill a game with three-pointers. Compared with his breakthrough ability, his three-point shooting is still slightly inferior." (End of this chapter)
