Big Zhi and Kobe's Lakers Dynasty

Chapter 230 Serbian Burger King

With Wang Dazhi playing, Antoine Kyle started to strike the iron, but Karl Malone, who had been ambushing under the basket, became a new headache for the Lakers!

18-5!

The fans who were going to witness how the Lakers took their opponents lightly, have been beaten into dumb by the Utah Jazz.

Wang Dazhi: "Cheer up, my brothers!

Bring out our aggressiveness and get done! "

Seeing his teammates who were panting heavily, Wang Dazhi hoped to use his voice to inspire them!
After Shaquille O'Neal left the court, Karl Malone finally no longer needed to be in an anaerobic state all the time, and the Utah Jazz also played a fake zone defense according to the pre-designed plan.

It wasn't until 2001 that the NBA fully legalized the defensive strategy of zone defense, but in previous games, many coaches also used this fake zone defense to play sidelines in a short period of time.

The Utah Jazz's formation is more like a three-two defense. Without the absolute threat of the inside, they put more energy on the defense of the Lakers' outside shots.

Karl Malone and Antoine Kyle guarded one side of the three-second zone, and the others spread out outside the three-point line. The reason why Jerry Sloan dared to arrange defense like this was because every Jazz player There are Lakers players not far from him.

In this way, the referees can't whistle for zone defense violations. The Jazz's "man-marking" defense is just not so tight.

The Lakers guide the ball from the outside, and the Utah Jazz's defenders stepping on the three-point line can handle it with ease. When the Lakers' outside ball holders break through, they will cooperate with each other to provide assistance for each other!

Time was wasted second by second. When there was no opportunity to pass, Wang Dazhi stood on the free throw line. John Stockton could only retreat from outside the three-point line to withstand Wang Dazhi's foot.

Wang Dazhi turned his back on John Stockton for the ball!

Robert Horry's half-high pass was accurately delivered to Wang Dazhi's hands. Wang Dazhi held the ball and turned around to face the basket. He didn't dare to put the ball below his chest, otherwise John Stockton's hand speed would be a problem. just for fun!

Wang Dazhi faced John Stockton with such an absolute height advantage and did not attract the help of other Utah Jazz, because the other four had super confidence in John Stockton's defensive ability!
Indeed, John Stockton's toes were almost stuck to Wang Dazhi's shoes, which meant that Wang Dazhi had no room to step inward at all. As long as he charged hard, there would be no doubt that this kid would hit the ground. Offensive foul!
Moreover, this person is still using his torso to push against Wang Dazhi's body continuously, leaving no room for Wang Dazhi to make a complete shooting movement!

Just by putting on such a defensive stance, one can already see John Stockton's top small defense ability!

It’s just that this kind of sloppy tactics is definitely not easy to use against Wang Dazhi. Nikola Jokic has always been Wang Dazhi’s favorite insider in his previous life. Now he also borrows many moves from the Serbian Burger King.

Wang Dazhi never let go of the ball he was holding high, so he simply stopped doing any more movements, stood with his feet firmly and kept his center of gravity, and with a slight flick of his left wrist, the ball drew a beautiful arc and hit it hollowly!

John Stockton, who was stuck on Wang Dazhi's foot, couldn't interfere with Wang Dazhi's standing shot at all!
It was a long time after the goal was scored that the fans at the Staples Center remembered to cheer, because Wang Dazhi's shooting action seemed to be...really a bit amateur...and a little...disjointed?

Anyway, everyone couldn't tell what was wrong, they just felt that this should not be an action that appeared in the NBA playoffs.

18-7!

Wang Dazhi: "They can't guard me! Let's move the score back!"

No matter what his posture is!Just score a goal!
Wang Dazhi's goal did ease the gloomy atmosphere of the Lakers a lot, and everyone's footsteps were lighter when defending.

Pick-and-roll, pick-and-roll, pick-and-roll!

Antoine Kyle blocked Nick Van Exel's grab this time, and John Stockton rushed to the inside as soon as he accelerated!
Wang Dazhi's footsteps were fast enough, but he still couldn't stop his opponent from rushing inside!

John Stockton collects the ball and takes off!Wang Dazhi also jumped up!

With the defensive area covered by Wang Dazhi's bounce and wingspan, John Stockton has nothing else to do except for the super throw over the top of the backboard!
Just throwing the ball to that height is definitely not a good choice, and a smart person like John Stockton naturally can't be that strong!
Another jump pass!He sent the ball to Wang Dazhi's armpit and into the hands of Karl Malone who made an air cut!

A thunderous dunk with his left hand made Elden Campbell, who was chasing after him, stop and salute!
Karl Malone: ​​"I can blow your PG eyes with my left hand!"

Karl Malone, who had a bad breath, roared angrily!

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's prediction was correct, and something even more terrifying happened. Karl Malone, who no longer held the ball, played an efficient performance only by relying on the second attack and eating cakes at the basket!

In the middle of the basket, his left-handed attack is also unstoppable!
20-7!

The momentum that the Los Angeles Lakers had just gotten up was extinguished by Karl Malone's dunk!
The Utah Jazz's offensive touch today is hot, their shooting percentage has reached 80+%, and they have not shot a three-pointer so far!

The defense is not improving, and the Lakers must find a way from the offense.

Facing the opponent's zone defense, Wang Dazhi came to the position of the free throw line again, seeing that John Stockton, who is a good shooter standing still, naturally couldn't let Wang Dazhi shoot so easily again.

When Robert Horry lobbed the ball from the right three-point line, he slammed into Wang Dazhi's torso hard. Wang Dazhi was hit very painfully, but John Stockton's movement did not seem to be big.

Wang Dazhi was in pain, and he couldn't hold the ball securely. The ball flew towards the basket!

In such a situation, Antoine Kyle immediately came to grab the landing point!

Wang Dazhi's reaction was really fast. He turned around and was half a second ahead of Antoine Kyle and tapped the ball again with his left hand!
The ball continues to fly to the basket!
Wang Dazhi took a big step forward, grabbed the ball with his left hand and gently sent the ball into the basket!
Karl Malone, whose knees were slightly bent, waited for Wang Dazhi to take the ball and take off for a dunk before blocking the block. The strange rhythm of Wang Dazhi's two goals completely confused the Utah Jazz's defenders!
