You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 792 Tactics Destroyed by Stars
In the first quarter, the two teams fought back and forth, 24 to 26.

The Pistons trailed the Lakers by 2 points.

In the second quarter, the core players of both sides only rested for 3 minutes, and Westphal decided to change.

On Mo Mengchen, Ginobili, Hill, Rasheed and Miller, the main maze tactics.

The maze tactic has always been one of the most troublesome tactics for the Lakers. Due to the emergence of the maze tactic, each team found that O'Neal struggled in the pick-and-roll. Various pick-and-roll tactics emerged in an endless stream, all aimed at O'Neal.

However, no team has a more annoying pick-and-roll than the Pistons.

The maze tactics often benefit the outside shooters. O'Neal will feel "I can't defend anyway no matter how hard I try" when encountering pick-and-rolls. Therefore, the outside shooters are the most likely to get shooting opportunities.

Mo Mengchen is bold, Hill is meticulous, Miller is cunning and cunning, and the five players on the court are strictly disciplined, so let Mo Mengchen and Hill hold the ball and call for pick-and-rolls, attracting the Lakers to pinch and concentrate on the strong side, and the weak side to block more people+ Cut out, Ginobili and Miller, guys who were originally in charge of the pick-and-roll, can switch hands from the middle to find the corner three-pointer after they are split.

The maze tactics stunned the Lakers with one hammer. Hill showed great power on the defensive end. In addition to his outstanding performance, Ginobili gradually became able to play alone. Mo Mengchen has always been calm and capable. Although Rasheed and Miller are not the best partners, but Both are very smart, so Hill can free up his hands and sweep the area control all over the place.

The suppression at both ends of the offense and defense allowed the Pistons to achieve a go-ahead and extended the lead to 6 points before Zen Master requested a timeout.

Seeing that the situation was under control, the Lakers changed their strategy.

The first quarter opened and closed but the effect was not good. Kobe, who exploded with Houston, was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the Zen master.

The maze tactic is good because it can deal with O'Neal well, but there is no perfect tactic in the world. If the Pistons want to build a perfect maze, the internal defense must be lacking. Miller's defense is more than three grades worse than Wallace's. Kobe has been reused After that, he began to attack the Pistons' restricted area strongly.

At this time, Miller's flaws on the defensive end appeared.

The defensive end is impacted, and the offensive end will also have problems.

The Pistons made their first mistake since changing to the maze tactics, and the Lakers counterattacked and scored.

The point difference narrowed to 2 points.

In the next round, the maze tactics also began to fail. The Lakers' defense was as tight as a mad dog. Even O'Neal ran to the outside to pester Miller, and they gave up the penalty area.

Hill hit the ground to Ginobili, Yaodao attempted a layup, but was interrupted by a vicious block from behind.

The offensive alternated, and the Lakers regained the initiative.

Just when the Pistons decided to re-stabilize the lineup, Kobe, who was playing hot, stopped uncharacteristically and passed the ball to the Sharks in the low post.

The Sharks turned and threw off Miller's top defense, rushed to the basket and scored a dunk.

It's not surprising that the Lakers play the core ball. The Pistons also hope they play like this, but it feels wrong to play.

OK is not the previous one-on-one confrontation, but a combination of interconnected punches.

Even if the Pistons' maze tactics can be played, OK's offense is accurate and efficient.

Then, the outside shooting percentage began to decline, but O'Neal was holding the momentum of the sky, even in a one-on-two, he was not afraid, dunking Miller and Rasheed in the air like a peerless king, and incidentally caused the roaring Tianzun's personal first. Three offenders.

He stepped on the overlord's step, matching Staples' roaring voice.

"The Lakers have the initiative!"

"This is the most brutal center ever!"

Some reporters even relayed Wharton's commentary to the legendary Lakers star Skyhook Kareem who came to watch the game.

Abdul-Jabbar raised his bald head, "Shaq is the most brutal center ever?"

The NBA's all-time scoring leader frowned, as if trying to refute this arrogant point of view while thinking about how not to hurt the younger generation.

"I agree." The historical behemoth who crossed the 80th and [-]s, and Chamberlain, Thurmond, Walton, Unseld, the second of the four major centers...etc. The prehistoric giants who fought endlessly as the NBA's historical scoring leader were recognized by the public Wharton's exaggerated praise for O'Neill.

After the Pistons played the maze tactics, they extended their lead to 6 points. OK relied on his personal ability to overtake the point difference again. This time, the Lakers led by 6 points.

However, the Pistons still have a killer feature.

Lakers fans will never forget how they lost the last game.

In the second half, Mo Mengchen activated the Princeton tactic as soon as he came up. Judging from the effects of the first two rounds—a three-pointer from the outside, and Hill running back to score—the Lakers still haven't cracked the Princeton tactic.It's just that O'Neill's offensive was too fierce.

O'Neal didn't know what medicine he took wrongly, so he only played with Kobe.

Screen him, pick and roll him, cut inside and dunk.

After the screen, he ran into the basket and pointed to the sky, jumped up to catch the ball and dunked.

In the second quarter alone, Kobe had 5 assists on O'Neal, which was the first time he had 5 assists in a single quarter in the Finals.

They still don't know how to deal with Princeton, but the Sharks dominate the inside, making the Pistons feel stuffy every time they go to the basket.

Princeton, who made the Lakers helpless, suddenly lost its effect under such circumstances.

The Lakers couldn't crack it, it was the Pistons who had their own problems.

In the final analysis, their Princeton is only a half-finished product. In order to play a complete Princeton, the team's defensive backbone, Ben Wallace, can only sit on the sidelines.

Miller first dominated the maze tactics in the second quarter, and then participated in Princeton in the third quarter. As a backup center, he fought against the Sharks for two consecutive quarters.

This is not a shark in a normal state, this is a shark in a rampant state.

His defense was repeatedly blown.

O'Neal dealt with him in a planned way. First, he cut inside the pick-and-roll, and then approached the basket with a screen. Miller's athletic ability could not keep up with the pace of the sharks. The Lakers always felt safe making bold passes because they knew Miller couldn't jump.

Just pass the ball to the Sharks and they can score.

Miller was tormented inside. He was trusted by the coach, but he could not give back a good performance. When he made a pass error, the game appeared an irreversible disadvantage.

O'Neal began to give up moving without the ball, and he stuck Miller with his back on the verge of collapse.

Forcibly hit back, blast Miller's defense away with his body, and score with dunks.

The shark snarled at him.

The Pistons are already behind the Lakers by double digits. While Princeton was out of action, Hill's heads-up was also blocked by O'Neal.

Then it was the Lakers' turn to attack again, and it was O'Neal again.

It was another duel. This time, Rashid came back to help, but it became another background.

O'Neal devoured them both.

"What are you going to do to stop this rampaging monster?"

"They can't stop it!"

The Lakers fans roared in unison.

"Yes, you can't stop it!"

The shark's aggressive attack finally caused Miller to collapse. When he collapsed, his emotions were extremely unstable. Miller, who has always been calm and rational, threw his fist at the shark.

"Beep!!!"

There was chaos on the court, and Staples' boos continued like a rainstorm.

Miller was seized on the spot.

"Go to hell, Brad Miller~!"

"You useless lackey is no match for Shaq!"

"Dor.Mo has given up on you stupid pig!"

Miller was furious, tore up his jersey, and walked shirtless to the player channel.

"What Brad has done is very likely to result in additional punishment for him."

"It's not very likely, it's certain, he will definitely be suspended."

Since O'Neal was in the shooting state at the time, after Miller was seized, O'Neal had two technical foul free throws and one free throw for shooting, and then the Lakers continued to enjoy the ball.

The Pistons don't have enough time to take care of Miller's mood.

Miller was expelled, the Pistons could not play the perfect maze tactics and Princeton, Ben Wallace returned again.

It's just that his return can't stop the rampaging shark and the red-eyed Kobe.

The Lakers entered the fourth quarter with a 14-point lead.

Unable to play effective tactics, the Pistons chose to fight hand-to-hand like the Lakers.

The only ones who can score are Mo Mengchen and Hill, but they are 14 points behind. In addition to ensuring scoring, they must also ensure defense.

In OK's current state, this is simply impossible.

Mo Mengchen and Hill arranged every attack of the Pistons in the fourth quarter, but the point difference has not been narrowed to within double digits.

"It's the first time I've seen a Pistons team like this."

"They were at a loss."

In the third minute of the fourth quarter, Zen Master waved his hand and asked O'Neal to rest, leaving Kobe alone on the court.

"As soon as Shark's ass was back on the bench, Kobe didn't care about the other players. He took over the game immediately, as if the Lakers were his team. But when Sharks were on the court, he still passed the ball to Sharks a lot. It seemed that they had achieved There is a tacit understanding: If there is cooperation, they will be done. But if there is another plan-for example, the Shaq does not need to pass to Kobe, or Kobe does not need to pass to the Sharks, they will choose the more selfish plan."

That's what happened tonight.

Kobe is still selfish, but with O'Neal on the court, he becomes a selfless player.

"When they play two-on-two on the strong side together, they're unstoppable."

In the last 5 minutes, the Pistons chose to give up just like the Lakers in the Tianwangshan battle.

Both Mo Mengchen and Hill scored 30+ points, but the Pistons lost by double digits.

In this state, there is no hope of a comeback.

The Lakers narrowly escaped death, and they will have the final battle three days later.

Mo Mengchen sat down without saying a word. They wanted to use tactics to solve OK tonight. In the end, individual strength overwhelmed collective strength.

OK destroyed their tactics.

What if, what if they had used a similar approach against OK in the first place?

Dor.Mo couldn't help thinking.

He has no answer, the only answer is that their tactics were defeated by OK.
