Chapter 108

However, the price the Lakers paid for getting Pau Gasol at the time was really slight.

With three players, Kwame Brown, Aaron McGee and Crittenton, plus two first-round picks in 2008 and 2010, and the signing rights of Marc Gasol, Paul Gasol was obtained in this way.

Among these three players, only one Kwame Brown had the strength of a starting center at the time, and the other two were really just rotation players, okay?

In other words, the Lakers used Kwame Brown and two first-round picks to win the Western All-Star center at the time.

It's no wonder that such a cheap thing made Popovich furious at the time.

As for the accompanying rights to sign Marc Gasol. At that time, Xiaojia was still playing in the league in Spain. Who knows if he can log in to the NBA.

Therefore, the Lakers really got a big deal.

Of course, from the perspective of Zhao Hao, a future man, the Grizzlies are actually not losing money in this deal.

After all, they did get the cornerstone of the team in the future, Marc Gasol.

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins.

The Lakers still sent a regular starter.

The starting lineup for the Grizzlies is point guard Jason Williams, shooting guard Mike Miller, small forward Sean Battier, power forward Lorenzen White, and center Paul Gasol.

This lineup is so awesome!
Seeing the starting lineup of the Grizzlies, Zhao Hao really wanted to say something, it was too extravagant.

Nicknamed White Chocolate's Jason Williams, he is definitely one of the most gorgeous passing point guards in NBA history.

Most people commented that he can only play fancy passes, and his strength and reputation are seriously inconsistent.

But Zhao Hao really wants to say, I'm afraid you haven't seen White Chocolate's match against the Heat.

At that time, Jason Williams had completely abandoned the previous gorgeous style of play, and transformed into a more mature, more accurate, and more disciplined champion point guard.

Whether it's organizing offense, open shots or man-to-man defense, he has brought great help to the Heat.

Especially in the sixth game against the Pistons in the Eastern Conference finals, White Chocolate made 11 of 10 in a single game, directly staged the scene of riding the savior alone.

Following the Sharks and Flash at the time, they went directly to the NBA Finals.

Such a player can only play tricks?

Being fancy has to be based on strength.

Look at Iverson, and the future Irving, isn't that fancy?
With a jump ball at the center line, Pau Gasol jumped lightly, and directly dialed the ball with a long arm.

The Grizzlies took the lead in attacking, and White Chocolate faked a long pass behind the back to Mike Miller from beyond the three-point line.

Swish!
Kobe rushed over, but it was still a step too late.

0:3
Zhao Hao, who is also a shooter, couldn't help but want to applaud the ball.

For this three-pointer, Mike Miller's rhythm is really good, completely ignoring Kobe's back defense and making a decisive shot.

This is the awareness that a sharpshooter should have.

When it is determined that the opponent cannot block the shot, he ignores any interference, maintains the shooting action and rhythm, and only has the basket in his eyes.

This is the reason for being able to shoot a very high hit rate from the outside.

Of course, this outside shooting method is still different from shooting two-pointers or finding boards inside.

So Mike Miller is indeed a man who can often be compared with shooting masters like Ray Allen and Korver.

This ability is still there!
Seeing the home team scored a three-pointer, the fans immediately cheered and jumped up.

But they are not really applauding for Mike Miller, but applauding Jason Williams for his gorgeous back pass.

This ball is so beautifully passed.

The game continues.

Kobe Bryant is still the same as before, creating opportunities for his teammates first.

After he made a direct pass to attract double-teams, he gave it to Butler outside the three-point line.

Who is guarding Butler?

Blind Master, Sean Battier.

Butler just raised his hand to prepare for a singles after the triple threat, Battier directly slapped the ball hard with quick eyesight and hands, and the ball broke!
Kobe glanced at Butler in surprise, and then quickly returned to defense, but was still scored by a layup by Jason Williams who was about to get off.

0:5
Corvo is upset, what the hell is this messed up ball.

The Lakers attacked again, and Atkins advanced with the ball. After receiving Odom's high pick-and-roll, he directly passed the ball back to Odom.

Zhao Hao on the bench couldn't help standing up, ready to wave the towel.

Hey, that's a good shot ha!

The Atkins guy is not bad, usually he only knows how to score, but today he can organize offenses.

With a wide open space in front of him, Odom hesitated, and still made a three-pointer.

Three do not stick.

Zhao Hao looked at the flying towel in his hand, feeling a little embarrassed.

He obviously found that the jump height of Odom's shot just now was not enough, and the arc was also very low. This is obviously a lack of strength in his feet.

Why do you have no strength in your feet?
of course!

You don't know how expensive you are when you are young, and you cry when you are old.

Sure enough, not everyone is the big bug Rodman, fighting fiercely all day and night, and the game at night can still be full of energy, even like adrenaline.

Switching offense, Jason Williams lobbed the ball directly to Pau Gasol inside.

The latter leaned directly against Mim and scored with a hook.

0:7
This game is going to be unstoppable!
Kobe waved his hand to several people unhappily, and then stretched out five fingers.

Going to singles!Or endless singles!

Corvo obviously has no patience with his teammates on the field. Just kidding, if he is more patient, he will be beaten 10:0.

"Odom and Butler are obviously out of shape tonight, probably because they are too tired back to back." On the coaching bench, assistant coach Hamblen guessed.

Tang Shuai ignored these reasons and excuses, and said directly: "The Grizzlies are in the same west as us, and they are also a playoff team, and they are strong. We can't lose to them, so we must win this game. Down."

Hamblen thought for a while and said, "The Grizzlies have a twin-tower lineup of Pau Gasol and Lorenzen White. How about we take Divac up and fight first?"

Tang Shuai hesitated for a while, then nodded and called a timeout.

At this time, the score on the field has reached 14:6.

All 6 points of the team came from Kobe's singles.

But the Grizzlies' defense is good. Corvo has at least two people hanging in front of every shot, so his shooting percentage is not high.

"Zhao Hao, Divac, you two, Odom, Butler, come down and have a rest."

Tang Shuai adjusted the substitutions, then took the tactical board and continued: "Divac, you have to pull up to the high position to do pick-and-roll for Kobe, and then leave the inside to leave room for breakthrough, and at the same time, you have to help defend Paul. Saul, don't give him comfortable shooting space."

Divac on the side nodded solemnly.

Zhao Hao couldn't help but patted Brother Divac on the shoulder with admiration. Sure enough, an old family is like a treasure.

Brother Divac is still very trustworthy, at least he knows how to save energy after going out for a day, and save it for the evening game.

Introduction, is the example of a veteran!
