The world's best combo guard

Chapter 139 136 [Change in paint area]

Li Hao kissed Ling Sixue for more than 3 minutes, and the two even moved from the sofa to the bedroom. It seemed that the battle was fierce. For Li Hao, tonight may be the moment when he won the tough battle.

But in the end, Ling Sixue stubbornly defended the position.

To be honest, Li Hao, who was around 1 meters tall, was almost kicked off the bed by the weak-looking Ling Sixue.

Li Hao shook his head depressedly, he really didn't want to be abstinent in the subject competition, but Ling Sixue just didn't give him the chance to take the last step.

"What do you want brother to do before you agree?" Li Hao slumped onto the bed.

"It's justified, when we officially get married." Ling Sixue blushed and gave Li Hao a white look.

"Shit, what is the age of his grandma's, it's a good thing you have stayed in the United States for so long." Li Hao sighed up to the sky.

"What happened to the United States? No matter how long we stay in the United States, we are still Chinese"

"What's wrong with the Chinese? Sister, please go back to your country and have a look. Young people nowadays are super open."

"Go away, it won't work with my aunt anyway"

"Your sister, don't force Master to use force"

…………

In the end, the two were exhausted, and under Li Hao's power politics, they barely reached an agreement.

This is how Li Hao expressed power politics to Ling Sixue.

"Anyway, wait for me to win the championship at the latest"

"You are confident, the championship is so easy to win?"

"Don't worry about it, you can wash it up and wait for me, my lord"

"roll"

.........

Apart from resting at night after the game, Li Hao did not completely relax because of his victory in the first game. He showed up at the Toyota Center early the next morning.

When he showed up here, there were already a lot of people in the training hall, not players, they were all members of the coaching staff.

In the eyes of the outside world, the hardest players in a team are often the players, but in fact, the efforts of the coaching staff are often invisible to the outside world.

The regular season is a bit better, once it comes to the playoffs, this situation is obvious.

A good player is able to execute the coach's arrangements well on the court, and for the coaching staff, they need to do a lot of work before the game starts.

For example, now, under the leadership of offensive coach Judy Brucher, members of the coaching staff are studying the tactics of the second game against the Trail Blazers.

An excellent team often has changeable tactics, so that it can easily defeat the opponent and avoid the targeting of potential opponents.

After Game [-] with the Trail Blazers, Phil Jackson came up with a new idea. He hoped the team could score more points in the paint in the next few series against the Trail Blazers.

In other words, Phil Jackson wants to moderately hide the team's outside firepower, and instead show the biggest characteristics of the Lakers first.

After all, it is well known that the Lakers have mid-range shooting masters like Kobe and Karl Malone, and Li Hao's mid-range shooting is also trustworthy, but compared to the first two, Li Hao is not very likely to get mid-range shots.

"Lee, if next game we cut in half the overall size of the triangle offense, that is, shrink this corner of the perimeter into the paint, will your play be affected? Remember, I mean all-round play, not just It's a shot"

Judy Blucher called Li Hao over.

"The overall range is reduced? Judy, you know, passing the ball is not my strong point at this stage"

Li Hao shook his head.

He has to be honest, when the overall coverage shrinks, his passing vision suffers a lot.

"No, no, Li, you still don't understand what I mean. We don't want you to take more responsibility for organizing offense in this kind of formation. Instead, we prefer you to appear on the other side." Defense coach Larry Lewis said with a smile.

"This point?" Li Hao was a little stunned. From this point of view, his position is more like the most flexible point in the triangle offense. Moreover, his task is no longer to focus on offense, but to involve and attract Firepower!
Li Hao showed an expression of enlightenment. He remembered what Phil Jackson had talked to him before. Phil Jackson hoped that he could focus on defense.

Now it seems that Judy Blucher's change is really what it is.

"So, Lee, is it still going to be tough when you're in that spot a lot, and you draw fire, and you pass the ball?"

Larry Lewis asked.

"It should be fine"

Li Hao nodded his head. If it is this point, he is really sure, because compared with the original position where he often appears, the field of vision covered by this point is not only not narrowed, but has become greater because of the flexibility.

In the afternoon of the same day, the Lakers coaching staff organized an in-team training match for the change tactics just studied.

And Li Hao's position has indeed changed compared to before. If Li Hao often appeared on the left side of the top of the arc before, then now he appears more often on the right side of the paint area, and the other side is dominated by O'Neal and Kobe. The mobile triangle formed by the core has also narrowed its range, trying to keep it within the three-point line.

The effect of the training game was very good. Karl Malone, who had always felt useless before, could finally show his mid-range shooting ability, and O'Neal could also stay comfortably in the restricted area. As for Kobe, whether it was his breakthrough or mid-range shooting, look Looks more threatening.

Of course, this change requires Li Hao to make a certain sacrifice, that is, he needs to sacrifice a certain number of shots to help the team's offense.

Li Hao has no complaints about this. He can understand the coaching staff. After all, at this stage, Kobe is obviously more important than himself, and what he has to admit is that Kobe at this stage is indeed more suitable for that point than himself. .

On the evening of April 4rd, at the Staples Center, the second series between the Lakers and the Trail Blazers officially began.

At the beginning of the game, fans who followed the game felt a change in the Lakers' style of play. Whether it was offensive running or defensive positioning, the players looked more teamed.

The Blazers did not expect the sudden change of the Lakers. Because of the reason of the last game, they cannot ignore Li Hao. Therefore, every time Li Hao gets the ball, they will always send defensive troops, and Li Hao played Very smart, the Blazers' defensive gap will be widened to a certain extent before they can make the next move.

Moreover, this next move is not shooting, but passing.

and so.

76 points!
68.%!

The game finally ended with a big victory for the Lakers again, but it is worth noting that the Lakers scored 76 points in this game through the position in the paint area, accounting for two-thirds of the total points, and the entire mid-range shot hit 68%. [-]%!

A terrible statistic!

Although Li Hao only scored 11 points in this game, he sent out 8 assists, and after the whole game, Li Hao got 5 steals unbelievably!
