NBA Please Answer 2007

Chapter 204 Pseudo-strong team!Bouncing bouncing!
Kobe made the first free throw and Nelson called for a timeout.

Milicic muttered on the side: "It's the damn star whistle again. Last time it was given to the gorilla, but this time it was given to Iron Man. It's a fucking dog."

Iron Man is the nickname given to Kobe by the Warriors. Li Zhi feels that this nickname is worthy of the name. Kobe's blacksmithing has been refined and cannot be called iron, at least it is stainless steel.The young Kobe was called Peter Pan, so the title of Iron Man is also a good match.

Nelson is also very angry, but there is no way to explain this kind of thing clearly. There is no precedent for the NBA to change the sentence because of the "star whistle" on the field. Even if the Warriors want to appeal, they have to wait until after the game.

"I will prevent him!" Li Zhi said out of breath.This is not the first time Li Zhi has encountered such things as star whistles. Since you have star whistles, then I will see how many star whistles the referee will give you.

Once or twice, Li Zhi didn't believe there could be three or four times. If that was the case, then the warriors wouldn't have to fight, and just pack up and go home.

Nelson made adjustments, replacing Milicic with Jordan.Veteran Jackson was also replaced, but replaced by Gerald Green.

"Listen, guys, let's use rotation to kill them. Don't be afraid of fouls, don't be afraid of confrontation, even if the department can't win, we have to pluck a layer of skin from them!"

Nelson finally stretched out his sharp claws. The biggest advantage of the Warriors against the Lakers is that they are young, have more physical strength than them, and have stronger athletic ability than the Lakers.

The Warriors played Li Zhi, O'Neal, Jordan Jr., Gerald Green, and Barnes. Except for O'Neal who is older, the other four are young people, and they are several blocks away from the Lakers in terms of athletic ability and physical strength.

In the 15-16 season, the Thunder used Westbrook, Robertson, Durant, Ibaka, and Adams to torture the 73-win Warriors to death.

Back from the timeout, Kobe continued to hit the second free throw. 9:4
For the Warriors who have changed their lineup, Li Zhi will go to the fourth position defensively. Facing Li Zhi with upgraded skills, Gasol's inside offense is all ineffective.

After 5 minutes into the first quarter, the defensive intensity of both sides became stronger and stronger, and it was the Warriors who first increased their intensity.

The two sides came and went, there were a lot of small moves, Barnes got two fouls defending Kobe, and the star whistle was still there.

Nelson made adjustments, replacing Barnes with Nick Young.At this time, the Warriors led the Lakers by 18 points at 13:5.

Kobe was 4 of 1, but scored 8 points with free throws.The Warriors' defensive strategy against Kobe is to double-team, forcing him to jump or pass away from the basket.Kobe's shooting rate was already criticized by others, but once the intensity came up, the shooting rate was even more dismal.

O'Neal doesn't feel good, but his role in the interior is indeed irreplaceable by anyone.Even though he is old, Bynum is still not an opponent of the Sharks. In the matter of rebounding, O'Neal and Jordan teamed up to target Bynum, and the Lakers are useless.

After Barnes was replaced, Bryant began to show off.In this game, the Lakers strengthened the running and covering of players without the ball. Ariza and Fisher both scored goals. Only Bynum did not score in the starting lineup. His task is to cover.Under O'Neal's defense, Bynum's two shots were missed.

The Lakers' defense is also among the best in the league. The players in the team have been working together for a long time, and the mixed defense is much more skillful than the Warriors. In this game, they targeted Li Zhi's help defense and used rotation to limit others, but the score was still behind.

The key is that they can't guard against an enchanted Li Zhi.Jackson saw the pertinence of the Warriors' defense and asked Kobe to strengthen his singles. If the Warriors double-teamed, Kobe would pass the ball.This strategy is correct, but Kobe's pass was intercepted by Li Zhi many times.

Li Zhi, who has been fully upgraded, has an unparalleled sense of the trajectory of basketball. He was originally a defensive player, and his obsession made him even more keen.

After playing, Nick Yang and Li Zhi played together, hit a three-pointer, and made a breakthrough layup in the last attack, scoring 5 points.

Nick Young increased the offensive points on the field. After Li Zhi passed the ball, Nick Young did not only have the option of shooting, he could also make a second breakthrough.In the first quarter, the Warriors led the Lakers by 27 points 22:5.

李治第一节得到8分3篮板3助攻2盖帽2抢断。可以说，李治在第一节统治了攻防两端。

Kenny Smith said: "The Warriors' defense against the Lakers today was too bloody. If it weren't for Kobe's few fouls, the Lakers would almost be unable to withstand it."

Barkley laughed and said, "So it was a foul. I thought it was a star whistle?" Kenny Smith gave him a blank look. Barkley is famous for his "big mouth".

Barkley went on to say: "It's normal for the defense to be bloody. I think it should be like this in the playoffs. The Warriors played too slack in the first two games. That's not the level they should have."

Defensive expert Van Gundy commented: "The Warriors' defense in the first quarter was very good. There is no good way to break through the Warriors' defense. The Lakers can only hope for their outside shooters."

Magic Johnson said: "I don't think so. Kobe hasn't shown his power yet. He won't be guarded by the Warriors. I look forward to seeing him find the touch in a while. When Kobe finds the touch, the Lakers will have a chance outside."

Hearing what the magician said, Joan Barry quit. He said: "Dude, you Kobe are almost killed by George. If the referee didn't turn to you, the Lakers would have been overthrown by the Warriors!"

The magician pretended not to hear it, with a look of embarrassment.

The star whistle should not be mentioned in the commentary, but is discussed as a topic in some sports commentary programs.However, Barkley and Joan Barry's two commentators are famous "big mouths", which caused great controversy among fans.

Kobe's fans thought that those few balls were fouls by the Warriors. Whether it was Li Zhi or Barnes, they both caused "injury" to Kobe. Kobe fell to the ground again and again.

Warriors fans scolded the Lakers star whistle, godfather whistle, and complained while watching the live broadcast.

In the second quarter, the Warriors second team is: Milicic, David Lee, Jackson, Morrow, Crawford.Crawford and Milicic pick and roll, responsible for the main attack.

The Lakers' bench lineup is Odom, Walton, Vujacic, Shannon Brown, Farmar.The defensive formation is man-to-man, and the Warriors have a lot of pitchers on the bench, and the zone defense is easy to miss.

Crawford took advantage of the Lakers' slow inside speed and the shortcomings of being unable to guard against it. He used the pick-and-roll to get rid of Farmar and made consecutive emergency stop jump shots.Wharton's help defense can't prevent his breakthrough.

Walton's statistics have declined in an all-round way this season, and he is useless. Defense is the weakest part of the Lakers' bench.

Crawford has adjusted his state since the last game. On the offensive end, he feels like Iverson. After he broke through, he made four consecutive mid-range shots. Only Odom scored one mid-range shot for the Lakers. The Warriors continued to increase the score.

Jackson didn't call a timeout. Calling a timeout at this time is not very useful. Crawford is too slippery and is a nightmare for the Lakers' bench. The Lakers' guards failed to guard him in the last game.Walton's pick-and-roll defense is unbelievably slow.

After 3 minutes in the second quarter, Milicic singled out Wharton and made a hook shot, widening the point difference to 13 points.

In order to defend O'Neal, Bynum consumed a lot, so no one on the Lakers bench could interfere with Milicic and David Lee inside.Both of them are offensive insiders with good physical fitness, and Wharton is miserable.

On the back line, Shannon Brown is very strong, and he doesn't look like a guard with good physical fitness. The Lakers had high hopes for him and hoped that he could defend Crawford.In the first game, he did a good job and made Crawford hit the iron like crazy, but in that game, it was Crawford himself who didn't feel good.

Sixth men like Crawford, JR Smith, and Jason Terry are more effective in the sixth man position than in the starting lineup because of their unstable performance.

Crawford has a nickname called "The Ravager". He was born on the street and has excellent ball handling ability and touch. He has played for the Bulls, Knicks, and Warriors so far. He has scored 3 points in a single game with these three teams.

Milicic also used speed to attack the Lakers inside.On the defensive end, the Warriors have a 122 zone defense. Milicic and David Lee are in the penalty area, and the other three are outside, completely enclosing the penalty area.

This can minimize the impact of David Lee and Crawford's loose defense.The Lakers' substitute players were inaccurate in shooting. Vujacic's shooting percentage in this series was only 38%, Farmar's 39%, and Walton's 29%.

After playing for 5 minutes, the Warriors widened the point difference to 15 points, and the Lakers requested a timeout.

Jackson looked at a group of highly paid and capable substitutes for the Lakers, and was very angry, completely devoid of "Zen".

He said: "What did I say before the game, strengthen the defense, disrupt their offensive rhythm, one Crawford will blow you up, Odom, what are you doing? Can't you score? Give me a run, understand?"

Nelson also arranged tactics, allowing Crawford to continue to strengthen the offense on the field, while replacing Barnes and Morrow to strengthen the defense.

Crawford is currently playing singles and will not pass the ball to Morrow. As long as Crawford plays with feeling, he is very strong in offense.As long as someone can wipe his ass on the defensive end, he can blow up any of the Lakers' substitutes without any worries.

Crawford has scored 10 points, and Li Zhi continues to rest off the court. His obsession has gradually subsided, but he has mobilized his teammates.Li Zhi only needs to yell "666" on the bench if there are teammates leading him to lie down.

In the ESPN commentary seat, the magician was very anxious, watching Crawford blow up the Lakers' bench, he kept shaking his head.

Jumbari said with a smile: "The Lakers are a pseudo-strong team. The Warriors were frightened by the momentum of the Lakers at home in the first two games, and they were not prepared. Now they meet the Warriors who play at a level, and there are some good things to come."

Jackson planned to replace Pau Gasol and Bynum, who formed the twin towers, and Kobe replaced Walton.

Although the Warriors now lack Li Zhi and O'Neal in the second team, they have Jackson and Barnes, two defensive veterans. Kobe is not as comfortable as playing Gerald Green against them now.

However, Jackson must strengthen his offense at this time, and Vujacic also stayed on the court. The Lakers hope that the outside line can add an offensive point.

During the timeout, the Warriors had already figured out how to deal with Bryant, and all Barnes and Jackson had to do was piss him off.Jackson and Barnes hooked their shoulders, rubbed each other's ears, and whispered, making other Warriors players wonder what the two were doing.

"Stephen, we can't do this, this kind of thing is too wicked." Barnes shook his head again and again, as if Jackson had done something great to him.

Jackson curled his lips, and said bitterly, "Matt, you are too naive. We are in the playoffs now. Do you think you are going to be eliminated by the Lakers?"

Barnes hesitated, but shook his head anyway.

Jackson continued to say in a persuasive manner: "Brother, there are only two of us left in Hei Ba's old team. Shouldn't we do something? Are you willing to watch a group of young people take your place?"

Barnes thought for a while and said, "Stephen, we are captains, isn't this a bit too much?"

Jackson said loudly: "It's too much, KG knows, he just uses these methods all the time, I learned it all from watching the video."

Surprised, Barnes said, "My God, I always thought Garnett was a tough guy, but I didn't expect him to be so despicable."

Jackson patted Barnes on the shoulder and shook his head again and again, saying, "Didn't George say that? It's not a trivial matter. Battier, Elton Brand, and Bowen have done it. It's okay for us to do this, right? Besides, we just touched it..."

"Just touching?" Barnes said uncertainly.

"Yes, touch it."

Barnes' expression softened a lot, and he said, "That's fine, I'll try... just block the referee for me, and it's over if they see it."

Jackson patted Barnes on the shoulder with an expression of "I'm here for you".

Nelson just said that Barnes and Jackson should provoke Bryant, but did not say how.

Jackson, as a well-known "martial saint" in the NBA, is a good brother with top defenders such as Bruce Bowen and Ron Artest. He has done in-depth research on small moves.

None of these super defenders are clean. When defending, they often take attacking people as the first goal.Trash talking, flopping, elbowing, petty tricks, or outright violence are all very technical.Jackson just learned a little bit of their fur, and he has become an excellent defender. In the Warriors, he became the second defensive gate besides Li Zhi.

Jackson was irritated by the Lakers' star whistle, but he could not attack directly during the game, and could only punish the Lakers with some small actions.

For example... playing little JJ...
