Chapter 275 I Need More Ball Rights

On the court, the players of the Warriors and Lakers kept showing some physical confrontations.

Seeing such a situation on the court, Bruce couldn't help muttering to himself: "The referee will probably die of depression!"

Just as Bruce guessed, the three referees on the field kept running back and forth in the contact between the players of both sides. It is not difficult to see the mood at this time from their expressions!

When Kobe received the pass from Fisher, he first glanced at O'Neal who was still asking for the ball, a flash of disappointment suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then passed the ball over!

Since the start of this season, Kobe has been a little depressed about his current status and O'Neal's overly lively character!
When O'Neal did not complete the operation during the offseason due to a foot injury, but chose at the beginning of this season, this made Kobe, who has always been self-disciplined, finally angry!
Up until now in the playoffs, although Kobe had put his depression behind him, as O'Neal asked for the ball again and again, he finally felt a little impatient in his heart!

Carter followed Kobe curiously, looking at this guy who was in a good mood at the beginning, suddenly his face became serious just now, he couldn't help being surprised!
"Honey, this series will be very exciting!" Charlize Theron took the beer from the waiter and served it to Bruce and Cole respectively, holding a straw in her mouth like a little girl, excitedly Said.

"That's right, this game will definitely become a battle between superstars!" Recalling the previous battle between the two sides, Bruce said with certainty.

And the performance on the court also has a tendency to move closer to Bruce's prediction!

As O'Neal wreaked havoc on the inside again and again, even though Kobe was not to be outdone and frequently hit mid-range shots and broke into the inside to score, the Warriors still relied on all members to score, making the two sides in a stalemate!
"Lenny, it seems that our tactics have achieved some good momentum for the time being!" Carlesimo pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said slowly.

"This is just the beginning!" Thinking of the many times the two sides had played against each other, Wilkens first glanced at Phil Jackson, who was still very indifferent in the Lakers' rest area, and then continued: "I hope Shaquille will not stay indifferent forever." Such a high hit rate!"

Billups received a pass from Marshall, watched his teammates run up the field, and ran after them!

Since gradually learning some very good things from Starks, Dell Curry and others, Billups has gradually found his own position.

Even though it seems a little immature now, in terms of organization, he has already performed very well.

"Chauncey's progress is very obvious. The only thing he lacks now is experience!" Wilkens looked at the steady Billups on the court, casually flipped through the small notebook in his hand, and murmured in a low voice.

In the first quarter that followed, the two teams used completely different styles to present a very exciting quarter to all concerned fans!

When Carter finally ended the competition with a one-handed dunk, applause for the Warriors rang out in the arena one after another!

Back off the field, Carter and the others wantonly wiped off their sweat. The cheers and shouts in the arena obviously had no effect on them!
"Joel, you will play next, get ready!" While waiting for Carter and the others to wipe off their sweat, Wilkens pointed at Prizbilla, who was still wearing the training uniform, and told him with a smile.

"Understood! Boss!!" Prizbila excitedly took off his training clothes. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time!
Since Dampier was injured, although his playing time has gradually increased, he can clearly feel his progress!
As a center with defense as the main means, Prizbilla really feels that he has benefited a lot from studying with Dampier and Wallace!
Now that Wilkens can arrange to play in the regular time of the playoffs, Prizbilla is still very excited!
"Children, the next task for you is to rest well and wait for the next big battle!" Wilkens looked at the several people who had finished wiping, and said his arrangement!

"Chris, next you need to take on more offensive tasks." Wilkens pointed to Mullin and said slowly, then pointed to Bruce Bowen, and said with great anticipation: "Bruce, you My mission is to lock down Brian (Shaw), can it be done??"

"Understood, boss!" Bowen said very simply.

As the role played this season has become more and more important, Bruce Bowen has gradually shown his tough side on the defensive end!
Although he still assumes the task of the small forward position as a substitute, he once won the majority of votes in the selection of the best defensive team with his good defensive ability!

"Grant (Long), next you have to play your remaining heat, the team needs your contribution!"

Following Wilkens' succinct arrangement, the people mentioned by him showed excited expressions!
"drop!!"

As the whistle sounded in the second quarter, both sides sent substitute players to the field!
"From our lineup, compared with the Lakers' bench lineup, we still have some advantages for the time being!" Charlize Theron said slowly like a professional commentator.

"That's not likely!" Bruce shook his head with a smile, looked at the familiar faces of the Lakers, and said, "Robert (Horry), Tyronn (Lu) and Brian (Shaw), these three players are They have very distinct characteristics, and if you add a few rookies on their bench, they are not weaker than us!"

On the court, as the two sides basically replaced most of the substitute players, the game in the second quarter gradually unfolded!

Phil Jackson chewed the gum in his mouth, and looked at Mullin, who was much stronger than the Lakers' bench lineup, and couldn't help feeling envious!
"If Dell, Vince and Dirk speed up their growth, then this team will definitely be a terrifying team!" Phil Jackson's eyes flashed a gleam, and he spoke firmly to himself. said the teaching assistant.

Billups took the ball to the frontcourt quickly. Because the lineup was mostly veterans, he slowed down a little under Wilkens' arrangement!

"Number three, guys, number three!!" Billups looked at his teammates, raised three fingers on his right hand, and shouted loudly!
Understand the meaning of this gesture, the rest of the players are running according to a set tactic!

Since Wilkens integrated the triangle offensive tactics into his own system, the Warriors players have happily added a lot of changes and plans in the formulation of tactics!
Now, the No. [-] tactic they are implementing is born out of the triangle offense, adding a new tactic of air cuts and pick-and-rolls!

When Billups handed the ball to Grant Lang in the high position on the left, under the cover of Marshall, he rushed to the inside quickly!
As a veteran who has played for many years, Grant Lang has a thorough understanding of pick-and-rolls and some tactics. When he saw that Billups was temporarily unguarded, he suddenly made a motion with both hands to shoot.

Seeing his movements, Tyronn Lue, who was closely chasing Billups, suddenly slowed down his pace. It was him who slowed down, but Grant Lang quickly passed the ball!

After receiving the pass, when Billups was three steps away from O'Neal, he stopped suddenly and confidently threw the ball!

"Shhh!!"

Hearing the crisp sound that heralded a goal, Tyronn Lu was really a little depressed!
With his speed, there is still a great chance of catching up with Billups. It is precisely because of his sudden slowdown that the opponent has a huge gap and the shot is hit!

After that, as Brian Shaw missed a shot, Prizbilla, who got the rebound, quickly launched a fast break!

After seeing their teammates get the rebound, other Warriors players quickly ran forward. Even Mullin and Grant Lang, who moved a little slower, seemed to have regained their former youth, rushing forward vigorously. go!
Seeing the Warriors players advancing rapidly like a tide, only the super-fast Tyronn Lue on the Lakers side followed closely!
"Snapped!!"

Billups, who was running at the end, immediately received a pass from Prizbilla. After Tyronn Lue swooped, Billups threw the basketball into the To the left of the hoop, he knew there was a teammate waiting there!

When Marshall saw Billups' action, he flew up, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and dunked the ball into the basket with a bang!

"Hoohoo!!!"

Marshall, who has seldom made such a powerful performance, hangs his hands on the basket and roars excitedly!

Since Bruce and Wilkens entered the Warriors one after another, Marshall has gradually played the most comfortable basketball under the guidance of Wilkens!
If it weren't for the issue of using him, which sometimes made him very depressed, Marshall is really a big killer on the Warriors' bench!
"Able to shoot good shots and dunk dunks, Donyell is so cool!!" Bruce stood up excitedly, and now he finally saw the explosive performance of this "heavy gunner" again!

With Marshall's explosive dunk, Phil Jackson finally called a timeout.

When the Lakers and Warriors made their debut again, both sides replaced their main players on the field one after another!

When the Warriors temporarily led the Lakers in the second quarter, the Staples Arena was suddenly noisy.

"Will we still win the final championship??"

All the fans couldn't help thinking about this question in their hearts. Since entering the playoffs, despite sweeping the promotion before, they can see the impressive performance of the Warriors today, which really makes them have a little doubt!
"Gentlemen, can any of you tell me what's wrong with you?" Phil Jackson rarely spoke to players in a harsh tone, but now he had to ask in such a serious tone!
"I need more shot rights!!" While everyone was silent, Kobe said with a cold expression on his face!

Hearing his answer, the rest of the players showed surprise expressions!
