NBA: Destroying Irving in the opening field

Chapter 98 All You Miss is an Opportunity!
"Now that both sides have deployed their own rotations, Director Zhang, what do you think the Lakers need to do now to maintain their advantage and even expand their advantage?" Yoga asked.

"Let me tell you, the situation of the Lakers is not optimistic." Zhang Weiping said directly.

"You see, the Warriors have four superstars, so he can guarantee one or two stars on the field at any time. In general, the starting lineup does not necessarily have a superstar."

"For example, now, Durant Gaglin, this combination is highly mobile and has both offense and defense."

"In contrast to the Lakers, after Wang Hao is off the field, there is actually no backbone on the field. Players like Kuzma and Clarkson can provide good firepower, but you can't expect them to defend the opponent."

"Not to mention the strong tactical execution of the Warriors. Their passing and cutting system is basically one-on-one for the current Lakers."

"We can only hope that before Wang Hao returns to the court, the other boys can hold on."

Director Zhang's tone is full of worry, but his analysis is indeed objective.

Overall, the current Lakers really do not have the strength to compete with the Warriors.

unless there is a hanging b
Sure enough, as soon as the second quarter came up, Durant started his own performance.

Before the Splash Brothers were present, sometimes he would not force a shot if the opportunity was not particularly good.

Now with only Green, who is good at passing, and a group of bench players, Durant no longer has to suppress his desire to shoot.

First, he hit a mid-range jumper through the pick-and-roll; then he was hit in the low post by Nance Jr., who had just played, and scored two points with a golden rooster independent move;
That's not all, after Clarkson hit the jumper, he grabbed the rebound, advanced to the frontcourt, and directly hit a three-pointer!

In less than 2 minutes, one person scored 7 points and instantly evened the difference.

Off the court, Wang Hao's hand holding the towel was clenched at some point.

The advantages that I had worked so hard in the first quarter disappeared in such a short period of time.

For a moment, he had the urge to stand up and fight.

But Wang Hao has never been an emotional person. He quickly realized that even though he had recently played a phenomenal performance, he was far from being in a position to interfere with the coach's decision-making.

Besides, what's the use of rushing to play now?
His physical fitness has not yet recovered, and his skills are running out. What Wang Hao can do now is to trust his teammates, and then wait for the critical moment to force Wang Kuanglan.

Walton called a timeout and arranged some Ingram's singles tactics.

Perhaps because of his template, Yingge's fighting spirit in this game is second only to Wang Hao's existence.

He also showed the aura of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, daring to fight against Durant.

It's just that due to the lack of defensive skills and experience, he can't stop the pace of Xiaoshuai.

But on the offensive end, Ingram is still capable of responding.

Wang Hao also walked to Kuzma silently at this time.

As one of the few Mamba disciples in the team, Wang Hao still has a lot of expectations for Kuzma.

With his scoring ability, he is often able to play at an amazing level when the opponent does not target him.

Wang Hao remembers that in the first two seasons, with a certain amount of ball possession and freedom, he was often able to score 20+ points.

"The whole world is watching this game, it's time to let them see your strength."

"You and I both know that all you lack is an opportunity, an opportunity to prove yourself."

Wang Hao said seriously to Kuzma.

I don't know when, at least in Kuzma's eyes, Wang Hao has become the core of this young team.

Now, the core of the team is such a rookie himself, and given high hopes.

Kuzma suddenly felt a rush of blood rushing straight to his forehead, and adrenaline was secreted crazily.

"I see."

He nodded, his eyes were less confused and more determined than before the pause.

　
The time-out is over and the game continues.

The Lakers resumed their offense.

Kuzma hit a three-pointer against Jordan Bell at the top of the arc with a pass from Clarkson.

"Hard Kuzma!" Yoga praised: "After the timeout, this mental head is very different. This ball is very hemostasis!"

With this goal, the Lakers took the lead again.

In the next few minutes, the two sides entered a tug of war.

Between you and me, the point difference between the two teams has not changed much.

It wasn't until 5 minutes left in the second quarter that Curry, who had just returned to the court, hit a super long three-pointer, which broke the stalemate between the two sides.

The Warriors also achieved a go-ahead.

Lakers bench.

This time, Wharton not only turned his head, but stood up directly and came to Wang Hao's position:

"Hao, next, you need to fight Curry. I know this is extremely difficult, but it's not enough. I also hope that you can make the team's offense smoother."

"I see, coach." Wang Hao said lightly.

Although there is no grandiose ambition, every single word is inexplicably reassuring.

Wharton is used to handing over the heavy responsibility to Wang Hao, and he can do it well every time.

Therefore, Wharton didn't say any more, taking advantage of a dead ball opportunity, he replaced Wang Hao back on the court.

Wang Hao actually understood what Wharton meant.

He didn't say "you will support our offense after you go up", because the two strikers of the team are currently in a hot state.

Since there are already people who can provide firepower, Wang Hao doesn't have to spend too much energy in the first half.

Next, his single calculation is to use the defense and the passing ability provided by [Vision Misleading] to help the team survive the Warriors' fierce counterattack.

In the first quarter, he only spent 3 minutes in the opening [misleading sight], so this time, Wang Hao started it as soon as he played!
