Chapter 91 The Lakers with Incomplete Lineup

Once again, the Rockets, who finished the game ahead of schedule, ushered in a rare rest time.The next opponent, the Lakers, won the chance to advance 4:3.

When the Lakers played against the Hornets, they almost capsized. The Hornets were indeed very strong this year. If Kobe hadn't hit the ball in the end and shot two three-pointers in a row, killing the Hornets, the Lakers would have gone home.

The Lakers' lineup is still good. Since the trade to Gasol, the Lakers' record has continued to soar.However, Bynum's reimbursement for this season also left the Lakers without a general in the interior, and Gasol is a bit difficult to support in the interior.

With the Lakers advancing, the two sides in the Western Conference Finals have been determined.The Eastern Conference was also determined. The Celtics defeated the Cavaliers with difficulty 4:3, and the little emperor once again fell before the Eastern Conference Finals.

Like the Rockets, the Pistons defeated the Magic 4:1 and took a few days of rest early.

On the 22nd, the first game of the Western Conference Finals officially began.

The Rockets' starters are still Dayao, Scola, Battier, Tracy McGrady and Alstom.The starting lineup for the Lakers is Gasol, Odom, Radmanovich, Kobe and Fisher.

The Lakers are stronger in the starting lineup, because the Lakers are the Big Three, while the Rockets are only the Big Two.Although Odom has been in poor form in recent years, he is still a well-known star, and many people are willing to give him the status of a giant.

Even though the little magician's name is very famous, his strength has already regressed.The worst part of his performance is that he is distracted on the court at every turn, which seriously affects his performance. No matter how good his ability is, he can't stand up to making too many mistakes.

Dayao and Gasol are the same type of players, and they can be said to have become famous for a while.However, during the confrontation, Gasol took advantage. Gasol was stronger than Dayao and faster than Dayao. Dayao's advantage was his height.

Of course, the gap between the two is very small, and they can basically reach mutual explosion.

Kobe and McGrady are also enemies, and Guan Gong is against Qin Qiong.But Kobe, Guan Gong, is officially in the prime of life, and McGrady, Qin Qiong, is a bit sunset.

Odom is stronger than Scola, Alstom is not much stronger than Fisher, the hatchback is considered a tie.

The Rockets' only advantage is Battier vs. Radmanovich. Both are 3D players, but Battier is much better than Radmanovich, and can bridge the gap between Dayao and Tracy McGrady. .

The Rockets also have an advantage, that is, they get enough rest time, but the Lakers have been suffering a lot from the energy of the game.

The lineups of the two sides are similar, and the fight is evenly matched. If there are no other factors, it is difficult to say who wins and who loses.

Battier defended Kobe, and Kobe defended Tracy McGrady. Kobe spent a lot of energy on both offensive and defensive ends. As long as Kobe's energy is exhausted, the Lakers will be in danger.

However, Kobe is a physical monster and rarely suffers from exhaustion.This is the benefit that Kobe has gained from crazy training, coupled with his rich experience in the game, he knows how to distribute physical energy very well.

McGrady didn't feel very good in this game. It must be because he hasn't played for a few days and his hands are cold. He made one of five shots in 8 minutes, and Adelman shook his head while watching.

Adelman called a timeout and sent Wu Di up. Since McGrady doesn't feel very good, let's come down and rest for a while!Although McGrady was serious in the playoffs, he still had some problems with his defensive attitude. He even allowed Radmanovic to easily hit two three-pointers, which Adelman could not tolerate.

After Wu Di came on the court, he played at the second position and directly faced Kobe.Adelman didn't ask Wu Di to be able to defend Kobe, but only asked him to limit it. He also knew that superstars are difficult to be defended. Even if Anthony can get used to Wu Di's defense, Kobe can also get used to it.

However, seeing Wu Di playing, Kobe still chose to play a singles. In the end, he really had no chance, so he had to jump back and throw the ball before the 24-second violation.

Naturally, the hasty shot did not go in. Dayao grabbed the rebound and threw it to Wu Di.Wu Di naturally wanted to return the favor. He didn't wait for others to defend, smashed the ball up, and then quickly dribbled the ball forward.

Kobe followed Wu Di and tried to interfere with him, but Wu Di was unmoved. He carried Kobe and ran to the center line, then threw him away, rushed to the free throw line first, and kicked hard to dunk the ball into the basket.

Wu Di made a contribution on the court, which made the Rockets fans applaud.They felt that the Rockets owed Wu Di too much, so they couldn't help applauding Wu Di.

"Boy, do you need to be so ruthless?" Kobe said speechlessly.

"I never show mercy!" Wu Di replied.

Kobe was annoyed, this kid has character.But this year I am also aiming for the championship, and I will not show mercy!
The Lakers' triangle offensive tactics started with Kobe.If the starting point is not good, it will be handed over to the relay point.This relay point needs to be an inside player with a good overall view. The previous relay point was provided by Odom. However, due to Odom's attention problem, the triangle offense often cannot be opened at all.

When Zen Master Jackson taught the Bulls, Jordan was the starting point, and Pippen was the relay point.Because Pippen is reliable, the Bulls' triangle offense is very smooth. He can pass the ball back to the starting point, or pass to the other three points. No matter how the ball is passed, it will be a triangle. A straight line, but the position of the starting point will be different, so it is also a triangle), so this tactic is named triangle offense.

Now the relay point of the Lakers has become Gasol. Gasol has a good overall view, and many balls need him to pass back inside for processing.

So when Gasol came, the strength of the Lakers increased a lot.When Wu Di was defending Kobe, he not only made it difficult for Kobe to attack, but also defended the pass.

This is not because Wu Di is good, but because he subconsciously prevented Kobe from passing the ball to Gasol.The reason why there is such an intention is because Wu Di does not want Dayao to spend too much energy on the defensive end.

If Dayao puts energy into both offense and defense, it will be really unbearable for him.During Dayao's season, he was injured for a period of time. Wu Di visited him often, knowing that his foot injury was too serious. If the game was too intense, his foot might not be able to bear it.If that step is reached, not only will his career be over, but he will also have to stay in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

So Wu Di and Dayao went back to protect Dayao when they were on the court, and Dayao was willing to take care of him on some shots, and all the violent collisions were done by himself. Dayao just moved a little and then shot again.

It is because of Wu Di's protection that Dayao has been able to play smoothly until now, otherwise he might have ended up due to injury.
