Big Zhi and Kobe's Lakers Dynasty

Chapter 259

Such a strange move really caught the Houston Rockets by surprise. Even so, it doesn't mean that the Lakers' forced play tactic is unsolvable.

Rudy Tomjanovich's previous defensive tactics were mainly aimed at Shaquille O'Neal's low-post offense, but now Shaquille O'Neal hasn't even passed halftime. All the defensive strategies of the Houston Rockets are like bamboo baskets Fetching water, nothing was targeted.

After the timeout, maybe the Rockets will adjust.

After the game came back, Derek Fisher continued to press the rhythm. After a timeout and adjustment, the Houston Rockets' offense still did not improve!
Charles Barkley missed Wang Dazhi's fadeaway mid-range shot, and Shaquille O'Neal firmly protected the backcourt rebound!

But when Shaquille O'Neal wanted to launch a fast break again, he found that there was no Houston Rockets player in his half!

The other four of the Lakers were running fast enough, but the Rockets started to retreat when Charles Barkley was about to make a shot. Shaquille O'Neal couldn't do it even if he wanted to break fast. !

The fast break failed, the Lakers could only play the first positional battle of the game, and Shaquille O'Neal finally came to his familiar low position!
If you can't play fast break, then the Lakers will start from Shaq one by one!
The Lakers started their regular play, and the Houston Rockets finally regained their defensive rhythm. After all, they have been preparing like this before the game.

It is not a simple matter to face the Rockets' defense and hand the ball firmly into Shaq's hands.

Even with all his strength, Shaquille O'Neal couldn't completely keep Hakeem Olajuwon behind him!

Even if he is as strong as Karl Malone, he is still a [-]th position after all, but when Shaq met Hakeem Olajuwon, who is also the historical president of the NBA center, he wanted to receive the pass from his partner. very difficult!

The ball was tossed and turned several times, and finally the ball was handed over to Shaq from Robert Horry's hands!

The other four Lakers players pulled away immediately!Since these four have good three-pointers, they can almost become a bullring for Shaquille O'Neal and Hakeem Olajuwon within the three-point line!

When Shaq received the ball, there were less than 24 seconds left in the 6-second shot clock!
Time waits for no one, Shaquille O'Neal's back attack did not have the slightest temptation, and he slammed directly!
Although the desire is not high in the offense, but the big dream on the defensive end is full of presence!

Shaquille O'Neal did not squeeze into a sure-fire position for three consecutive impacts!Even if the 24-second problem is not considered, the 5-second back-play violation is about to expire!

Without jacking into the inside line, Shaq could only turn outward and make a one-handed small throw!

In terms of the technique of blocking shots alone, Hakeem Olajuwon is the well-deserved best in history!
Shaquille O'Neal's forced shot missed under the huge block deterrence of Dameng!

At the moment of Shaq's shot, four Lakers players rushed to the basket from different directions!
The Houston Rockets' defensive rebounding has been doing well, and their players' positioning awareness is even more outstanding!
But the subjective initiative of the Lakers players still defeated the positioning skills of the Rockets players!
Wang Dazhi and Kobe cut in from the outside corner of their opponents!No matter how good the positioning ability is, it is futile in the face of this overwhelming foot movement speed!

The two sprinted to the rebound's landing point with all their strength, one left and one right!Kobe's speed is slightly better!
When Wang Dazhi was still flying in the sky, he had already pushed the ball into the basket!

12-2!

Rudy Tomjanovich's timeout did not have a very good effect. After the game came back, the Los Angeles Lakers continued to occupy the advantage on the court!
Kobe: "If you want to compete with me for speed, you are a bit far behind!"

It's been a long time since I released myself like this, and Kobe even sprayed his teammates when he got excited!
Wang Dazhi: "I am farther away from the ball than you! Brother!"

Wang Dazhi also interacted with Kobe, and the Lakers were in full swing!
In the rest of the first quarter, the score continued to increase. Although the Rockets' offense was solid, they didn't dare to grab offensive rebounds because they were too afraid of the Lakers' fast break.

A team with the top twin towers completely gave up on the second attack, which is simply self-defeating!
This kind of trade-off is actually drinking poison to quench thirst, but otherwise they will collapse even worse!
The Lakers' chasing fast break and second offense made the Houston Rockets unable to parry at all. At the end of the first quarter, the Los Angeles Lakers led 35-18 by as much as 17 points!
The game came to the second quarter, and the almost crippled Houston Rockets had no ability to resist Shaquille O'Neal!

Skyhook Kareem's prediction came true again, Shaquille O'Neal's 15 points in a single quarter made the opponent's inside line crumbling!
After halftime, the Los Angeles Lakers led 66-43 away by 23 points!
Magic Johnson: "Who would have thought the Lakers would lead by 20+ at halftime!

Coach Harris' tactics have worked wonders!If the Rockets can't play a few waves of offensive climax in the second half, then they can account for today's game! "

In the first two rounds of the series, the Los Angeles Lakers have never been able to beat their opponents in the first half of the game, but in the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers can take a huge lead at halftime, which surprised everyone. !
Wilt Chamberlain: "I love this game, the Los Angeles Athletics wear down the exhausted Houstonian with their tireless sprint run!
I can't imagine what the game will look like in the second half? "

The high school students of the Lakers really caught the attention of many people. This is like a rich man who is used to delicacies from all over the world suddenly tried a street food stall. Although it is simple, it has a special flavor.

Skyhook Kareem: "I think Rudy Tomjanovich should think about what to do next in the series. The second game is the day after tomorrow. The Rockets might as well withdraw the main lineup early and let these older players The core players can rest for a while."

Skyhook Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who always likes to speak more tactfully, almost directly sentenced the Houston Rockets to death in this game.

Magic Johnson: "Karim, this is Houston's home stadium, the Compaq Center!
And tonight's game is not a preseason game, this is the first game of the Western Conference Finals!
I don't think it's possible for them to give up easily, whether it's the Rockets fans, or the Rockets players and coaches! "

Magic Johnson, who was still swearing at halftime, was severely slapped in the face before the end of the third quarter.
