Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 401
Duncan looked around and saw that his teammates didn't have a better chance, so he singled out Horry with the ball.

By turning back and forth and back and forth, slowly advancing to one side, at a position of about 45 degrees, suddenly turned over and shot a jumper, the basketball passed Horry's fingertips, and hit the board into the basket!

"8:4", the Spurs widened the point difference to four points.

This time, Zhou Yu finally saw the original 45-degree rebound shot, which not only has a high hit rate, but is also really difficult to guard against.

In a blink of an eye, it was the turn of the Lakers to attack again. Zhou Yu personally held the ball across the half court and controlled the ball near the top of the arc. His teammates pulled away one after another, knowing that Zhou Yu planned to do it alone.

Facing Duncan's defense again, Zhou Yu chose to dribble the ball with a low hand like a guard this time.

After consecutive dribbles under the crotch, Duncan's defense was loosened a little. Zhou Yu took the opportunity to speed up suddenly, and finally passed Duncan in one fell swoop, and rushed straight to the penalty area.

David Robinson, who was on the inside line, stared like a light bulb with his glasses. He knew that Zhou Yu was not an easy guy, so he simply ignored Huo Li and came straight to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu was not greedy for merit, nor did he want to fight head-to-head with the "Admiral", so he passed the ball to Horry in the corner on one side in time. High parabola, crisp sound into the net!

"8:7", the Lakers chased the point difference to only one point, and Horry's three-pointer finally showed off.

Subsequently, the Spurs were no longer limited to the inside twin towers, but strengthened the outside breakthrough. Johnson, Ginobili and Elliott took turns to break through with the ball and charged the Lakers inside.

Zhou Yu's defensive pressure has increased sharply. In addition to "taking care" of Robinson, he must also pay attention to strengthening the defense against the Spurs' outside players.

With the help of his teammates, Ginobili used the signature "serpentine breakthrough" to quickly penetrate into the hinterland of the Lakers.

The erratic footsteps caused Zhou Yu a headache. If it weren't for the advantages of height, wingspan and nimble footwork, the Lakers might have fallen inside.

Ginobili knew that Zhou Yu was not an idler, so he did not act recklessly, but promptly distributed the ball to Duncan who pulled the ball to the middle distance.

Duncan started with a standard mid-range shot. Although he didn't jump very high, Horry couldn't cover it due to his height and wingspan. He could only look at the ball and sigh.

Fortunately, Duncan's mid-range shot finally hit the iron, and Zhou Yu leaned Robinson behind him, struggling to grab the defensive rebound.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yu passed the ball to Kobe with a precise long pass, and Kobe galloped with the ball, and the Lakers finally hit a fast break counterattack.

Kobe used his skillful dribbling and turning to pass people, easily dodged Ginobili and Elliott, and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand!
"9:8", the Lakers finally achieved a go-ahead, and the fast-paced basketball that Harris most wanted to see was finally presented in front of him.

"O'Neal, have you seen how fast the Lakers' fast-break counterattack is this round? Five players on the court can keep up with the fast-break rhythm. If you want to be on the court, you can only stare blankly in the backcourt. "

Harris turned his head to look at O'Neill beside him, and said earnestly.

"Coach, you don't need to say anything. I know I'm a waste and I can't keep up with the trend of history. Please allow me to bring a side grill for the next game. You guys play while I eat barbecue."

O'Neill gave up on himself.

"O'Neal, don't get me wrong, I don't mean that, what I mean is, you have to gradually adapt to the new style of play of the Lakers, don't always be confined to the inside and die, you can properly participate in the fast break, or, like Wang It’s okay to be a fast break initiator.”

Harris couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry.

"I get it, coach, I'll do my best."

O'Neill nodded.

In fact, O'Neill is not stupid. He understands Harris' good intentions. Harris wants him to fully move and fight with others in the paint. End your career.

After adapting in the opening stage, the body joints of the players on both sides have gradually moved, and the next game will be played more sparks.

After David Robinson got the ball, he started to attack Zhou Yu fiercely. Although Robinson was not as powerful as O'Neal, he was not far behind. What's more, his footsteps were very flexible, making it even more difficult to guard against.

Fortunately, during the Asian Championships, Zhou Yu did not stop his hard training in the "basketball superstar growth system". He played a mock game almost every day, not only maintained his competitive state, but also improved his defensive experience.

Robinson tried his best, but he didn't take advantage of it.

Annoyed, he simply made a back-and-forth mid-range shot. Zhou Yu didn't go up to interfere. He knew in his heart that once he rushed to block Robinson, the rebound behind him would be lost. After Duncan grabbed the rebound, Maybe it will launch into a fast break counterattack again.

Instead of that, it's better to gamble that Robinson will miss the mid-range shot, so that he has a chance to grab the rebound.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu made the right bet. Robinson was so angry that he lost his sight on the shot, and the basketball finally bounced out of the hoop.

Under the pincer attack of Zhou Yu and Horry, even Duncan's supernatural ability was of no avail. The rebound was successfully grabbed by Zhou Yu. After a strong direct pass, the Lakers started a new round of fast-break counterattack immediately.

It's just that this time, the Spurs strengthened their defenses and returned to defense in a timely manner, making the Lakers' fast break and counterattack tactics obsolete.

Unwilling to be reconciled, Zhou Yu pushed in from behind, and after getting the ball, he suddenly raised his hand half a meter away from the top of the arc and made a large three-pointer.

Duncan, who was mainly defending him, had no time to guard against it. He could only watch the basketball pass over his head, draw a high parabola, and fall straight to the basket.

In fact, Zhou Yu didn't have much confidence in this hasty three-point shot. He mainly wanted to find a touch and play with some enthusiasm. He knew that the Spurs were an extremely stable team, and it might be difficult to play against them. It is better to take a slanted sword and find another way to get a bargain.

After a crisp sound of "唰", Zhou Yu's large three-pointer hit successfully!
The audience was horrified, the Lakers fans screamed and screamed. This is the basketball they want to see most. It is full of passion and gorgeous, which is pleasing to the eye.

The shouts of "M—V—P" quickly resounded all around, and the atmosphere of the scene was pushed to the boiling point by Zhou Yu's big three-pointer.

"12:8", the Lakers extended their lead to four points, turning the tide in one fell swoop.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Popovich immediately raised his hand to signal the referee, called the first timeout of the game, and the players from both sides walked to the bench.

Harris is very satisfied with the opening performance of this new starting lineup. He hopes that the players will continue to work hard in the next game and implement the fast break tactics to the end, so that the "Spurs Twin Towers" will become a fancy decoration.

When he said this, Harris was full of spirit and passion, and his saliva flew faster than a submachine gun.

Zhou Yu frowned. The reason why the Lakers played a few beautiful fast breaks in the opening stage has a lot to do with the Spurs' low shooting percentage and being caught off guard. Once the Spurs improve their shooting percentage and strengthen their defenses, the Lakers If the team wants to play a cool fast break, it may not be so easy.

What's more, Zhou Yu faced the powerful "Spurs Twin Towers" in the opening stage. Although he didn't lose much, he was completely desperate and exhausted a lot of physical strength. It is still unknown how long he can last.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't bear it anymore and said:

"Coach, I have a different opinion, can I speak up?"
