Devil shooting guard in basketball

Chapter 349 Control the point difference! (13)

Thibodeau also took a lot of thought into this game.

The momentum of the Lakers is too strong now!To win such a team, although the regular season has just started, it is still not easy to do.

The suppression of the Lakers in the first quarter of the game seems to have turned around in the second quarter.

Russell didn't dare to relax at this time, he was waiting for Li Feng to give orders at any time on the field!
When two teams are playing, if one team can play against each other with a good rhythm, there is no problem.

But this situation also occurs in the regular season, whether it is teammates or the team's rhythm, but in the end it is defended by the rhythm of its own team.

The opponent has not started to defend, and his own players created a "defense" because they ran slowly or fast.

From the current point of view, what the Lakers must try their best to do is to control the rhythm well.

In the second quarter, they suddenly had two point guards, which made it more difficult for the Timberwolves to defend.

To be exact, they all know Thibodeau's arrangement, but when it comes to a round, they don't know who to defend.

Jones walked slowly through the half court, and Rubio chatted with his teammates at this time.

Thibodeau must be very careful about the player Wharton. In recent years, a new generation of team coaches seems to have begun to rise.

Not to mention the Boston Celtics.

Like Kidd in previous years, Budenholzer of the Hawks, and coach Walton who is now on the other side.

Each of these coaches has a distinctive coaching style.

Wharton also had a bad temper.But it has something to do with his age.

The Bucks are changeable, the Eagles have a solid style of play and good teamwork, but the situation of the Lakers is more complicated.

They have many powerful players. What Walton needs to do is to combine these players together to show the power that cannot be displayed.

It looks like he's doing really well now.

There are also several uncertainties.Kobe and Li Feng accounted for most of the uncertainties in terms of players.

He has to be careful whether the Lakers will use any special tactics in the second half.

No matter how the tactics change, as long as there are more main players on the field, it will be fine.They were able to complete his temporary defensive task arrangement relatively well.

In the end the ball came to Wiggins, who switched defenses with Jones.

In the match between Li Feng and Wiggins, it didn't take long for his opponent to pass him.

Goji Boy is still difficult to defend.

But Nance Jr. and Randall immediately moved forward to defend Wiggins.

In the end, this player was still difficult to defend, and in the end Wiggins made a 2-pointer with a fadeaway jumper!
According to Thibodeau's idea, their team must lead to the end, and the third quarter will continue to expand the lead!
Wiggins quickly went back to defend Li Feng. Now that he sees this guy, he wants to defend him immediately, or pass him for a layup and get a point!

Li Feng was not in a hurry, he just looked at Wiggins so calmly.

The cheers of the fans at the scene became warm again.

Wiggins: "I want to see how you beat our Timberwolves tonight. This should be difficult, almost impossible"

Li Feng: "Blindly optimistic, brother~"

Wiggins: "Really? You have improved, Li Feng. But you are still not my opponent!"

Li Feng: "There are many players who are better than me. But which one of them now has two championship rings?"

Wiggins: "...Then, it can only mean that you are lucky"

Li Feng: "You think so too?"

Wiggins: "."

The two talked briefly, and when the time was about to run out, Li Feng immediately passed the ball to Landou.

Nance Jr. scored a jumper immediately after receiving a pass from Randall!
Li Feng wanted to say a few more words to Wiggins, but the latter ran away immediately!Said something to Jones, and then the two switched back.

The wolfberry boy feels that Li Feng is indeed poisonous!
As long as you exchange a few words with me, you will feel overwhelmed.

At that point just now, Nance was able to defend. He just needed to speed up his pace and take advantage of the momentum to defend that guy.

But because of spending too much experience on Li Feng, Xiao Nance accidentally took advantage of the loophole.

Wiggins, who learned his lesson immediately, didn't think much, and returned directly to his small forward position.

Then the basketball came to Dunn, he and Russell faced off, and it didn't take long for Russell to score.

Facing coach Thibodeau, who is known for his defense, one of the Lakers' weaknesses at this time is their lack of defensive ability.

But fortunately, the players played very relaxed, Russell sighed at this time.

Sometimes even if he doesn't slip away, he can't let go of his opponent.

The basketball was passed to Li Feng, and Li Feng immediately passed it back.

Russell already in the air passed the ball to Luol Deng, who made a hook!Then a happy look appeared on his face.

Although Li Feng's own passing ability is also limited, but with Li Feng, Russell feels that he seems to have grasped the true meaning of passing!

It seems that with the blessing of Li Feng's pass, he feels that his organization of the game has become smoother.

In a round, some basic skills and tactical play are of course important.

But if you can know the psychology of the other party, it seems that it will become easier to organize.

Basketball came to Wiggins this time, and the latter once again showed excellent personal physical fitness in the face of Nance Jr..

The final dunk to score!
Kobe: "Defense is still one of our weaknesses. Look at the opponent.

Score there with complete recklessness.And we have nothing to do with him.

We will be in danger if we really encounter a team with explosive combat power.”

Walton: "Now the overall tactical play has changed. Defense is not particularly important.

The Warriors are not good defensively either.But the Warriors won the championship trophy last season.

But I won't evade the question.For defense, you need to communicate with assistant coaches and trainers.And communicate with you.

Let me talk about this later.It can't be done in the short term. "

Kobe's face was already a little unhappy at this time.

Because Wharton obviously didn't take this matter too seriously.

That's why the team still has such problems until now.This is actually a bit strict for Wharton.

The Lakers have too many things to catch.

Unlike other teams, the Lakers look good everywhere.But there are problems everywhere!

For some problems, we can still think of some solutions, but for some problems, it is not easy to get rid of them overnight.

Defense is very difficult for the Lakers.

The records of the previous two seasons can tell how bad the Lakers are on the defensive end!
It's really impossible for any team to guard against it!

It's useless for Kobe to defend alone.

Playing on the field at this time, Li Feng felt that although Kobe did not play today.

Walton's main game is to train the Lakers' substitutes.The team is not required to win.

But in terms of the mood of the players on the field, they still want to win.

After all, the Lakers have won so many games now.It would be great to keep it up!
It is currently the No. [-] team in the Western Conference regular season, and now it is also the No. [-] team in the league!

You must know that this ranking last season has been dominated by the Warriors.

This time Russell missed a three-pointer, Gorgui got a rebound, and then Jones rushed to the frontcourt after receiving the ball!
Facing the unguarded state, Jones made a direct three-pointer!

39:28!Randall had a disappointed expression on his face at this time.

Luol Deng: "We have to hurry up. We can't let them widen the gap further!"

At this time, the two big men of the Lakers were a little anxious.They have rarely been so anxious about the team's victory or defeat this season.
The statements of the two of them made the Lakers players on the field feel very excited!

The Lakers are gradually recovering.

This time Li Feng brought the ball to the frontcourt by himself. In the first half of the game, if the opponent can widen the point difference, it will be really disadvantageous for the Lakers!
Because the opponent is a team that is good at defense.

Although there is still some gap between them and the Chicago Bulls, they are much better now.

Wiggins was beside Nance Jr., observing Li Feng's actions.

Ready to give Li Feng a blood cap at any time!

But immediately Jones received a foul, and Li Feng made two free throws at the free throw line!
The score difference in the first quarter was stretched to 7 points.After the full main force of the Timberwolves came up, they were indeed very deterrent!

The goal Li Feng set for himself in this quarter is to reduce the point difference to less than 10 points.The 11-point difference just now cannot be allowed to reappear!

Gorji received the basketball this time, and Landou soon gave the opponent a big hot pot in the air!

Then basketball came to Nance Jr.!
Wiggins suddenly broke the basketball in Nance Jr.'s hand and got up to dunk!

Unexpectedly, the force was too great, and the basketball bounced directly out of bounds!
Kobe: "For defensive training, I will think of a way. But if it is implemented, I think the players will hate me~huh~"

Wharton turned his head to look at Kobe's side face at this time.

It was a smiley expression.

The idea of ​​​​the Timberwolves wanting to recover the point difference is shattered!

Immediately, Li Feng and Russell passed basketball to each other.But what they didn't expect was that the Timberwolves players who quickly returned to defend the past did not go to defend them.

No one knows which of the two will make a sudden move.Just don't go out within reason and watch them dribble over.

The basketball finally came to Li Feng, but instead of shooting, he hit the ground and passed the ball to Nance Jr., who immediately got up from the corner and hit a three-pointer!
Walton: "Kobe, what do you think of Nance Jr.?"

Bryant: "Very good young man. Playing basketball should be like him.

Consistent, rhythmic game, guy who does something for his teammates.Not cheap. "

Walton: "I feel that his scoring is now in his position, the team ranks third, but in terms of stability, it is better than Ingram"

Kobe: "Do you compare him with Ingram? He is not as good as Ingram and can be his substitute"

Walton: "I will increase his playing time. Nance Jr. also has a lot of potential"

Kobe: "He is indeed, compared to Nick Young, he is much better~"

Nick Young: "???"

The black question mark who was chatting enthusiastically with his teammates immediately got up and ran to Wharton and the others when he heard this.

As the successor to the leader of the Lakers, how could there be such doubts?
Immediately between Walton and Kobe, Nick Young appeared.The three chatted about the game.

Nick Young: "Little Nance? I taught him a lot of movement skills~ I can be said to be his teacher! So you can't just give him the second substitute position of Wharton."

Walton didn't speak, he and Kobe looked at each other and laughed.

No matter what Nick Young asked, Wharton didn't answer him.Just put it in silent mode~
The point difference came to 6 points.

At this time, Rubio of the Timberwolves is still sitting off the court.

If he wants to come up in this quarter, it is estimated that the Lakers' score difference of more than 10 points is stable.

But at this time, Thibodeau's thoughts were consistent with Wharton's.

He will compete with this young coach in the last two quarters!
Both teams also have a lot of talent.

But obviously the Lakers are much better than the Timberwolves in terms of record!

Towns and Wiggins have shown a strong state since their comeback in this game!
Dunn jumped up and hit a three-pointer while Russell suddenly slipped away!
Seeing Russell like this at this time, Kobe suddenly took a deep breath.

He is not Russell's personal trainer, if he is, he must "snack" this kid's skin! !
Kobe knew Russell was a very athletic player himself.

However, such a player just can't cheer up on the defensive end.

In terms of breakthrough layups, Russell's ability is pretty good.But this player obviously fell far short of Bryant's expectations.

Kobe was very demanding of his teammates.

If you look at the whole team now, no one can meet his requirements.

But Li Feng was the first player.

Li Feng: "Little Nance, keep it inside! This can create a certain threat to the opponent!"

Little Nance ran over immediately after hearing it.

Li Feng came to the frontcourt with the ball alone, faced Jones' brutal defense, and finally broke through him directly and made a jump shot to score points!

Facing the defense of the Timberwolves today, Li Feng felt that it was not practical to shoot more three-pointers.

This is difficult to do unless you can pull out of neutral.

This game just allows them to see how good the Timberwolves' defense is!

This time Towns received the pass and both throws were interfered!
As soon as Gorgui got the ball, he was cut off by Randall!

Before Gorgui was depressed, the basketball had already been picked up by Russell!

He rushed out at a high speed, but the Timberwolves didn't react, and could only watch Russell rush to the frontcourt and score a layup!

At this time, the Timberwolves already had three players warming up on the sidelines.

It seems that the Timberwolves cannot complete the matter of widening the score difference.

But Thibodeau intends to fight for it!
Looking at the score at the scene, Li Feng felt quite satisfied.

The control point difference is 5 points, which has far exceeded expectations!
Wiggins faced Nance Jr. and was finally defended!The latter and Wiggins directly launched "Death Coil"!
In the entanglement, Nance Jr. still couldn't get past him.

This time Wiggins made a long-range 2-pointer.Then Nance Jr. missed a three-pointer, and Towns got a rebound!
Coach Thibodeau immediately asked for a timeout when he saw this.
