ace marshal

Chapter 778 Zen master VS young marshal, one foot taller

Because he was a little embarrassed by Zen Master's "triangle attack" and the point difference was narrowed to double digits, Lan Shengli quickly called a timeout.

From Lan Shengli's pensive look, he knew that he really had a lot of thoughts about this game.

After discussing with several assistant coaches, Lan Shengli explained to the team members.

"Substitute, Thornton, please rest for a while, Novak on~"

First of all, Lan Shengli made substitution adjustments.

However, when everyone thought that Lan Shengli would choose to replace Odom with a tall player like Drew Gooden to limit Odom, Lan Shengli did the opposite. Lan Shengli dwarfed the lineup even more.

"On the defensive end, if Odom continues to play Thornton in the low post, you can directly match up with Camby, with your hands straight, and let him shoot in a difficult way. Other players should not double-team or defend. Just be optimistic about your players~!!!”

Lan Shengli reminded him.

"Hill and Harden, you still defend Kobe and Fisher. Nowak, you chase Vujacic and prevent him from catching the ball~!! Johnson, you top Gasol in the high post. If Gasol goes to the low post, then You and Camby switched places~!! Got it~?!"

Lan Shengli continued to exhort.

The team members nodded while listening.

After Lan Shengli's deployment, I don't know what adjustments Zen Master will make.

Considering that the current state of the Lakers has recovered, perhaps Zen Master will not take the initiative to seek changes.

In the first round after the timeout, there was a more controversial scene.

When Novak made a long three-pointer, he was thrown to the ground by Vujacic's block, and the referee did not make any penalty, which made Lan Shengli very puzzled.

After discussing with the referee for a few words, Lan Shengli didn't say anything more.

After all, such whistleblowing cannot be made up for.

The Lakers pushed back again.

It is still the position of the triangle offense, but this time the low singles were replaced by Kobe.

And Gasol and Odom are in the high position for double support.

"I guessed that you would use Camby to single-handedly defend Odom to limit the triangle offense.

Zen master looked at the matchup relationship on the field and said.

It seems that Zen Master has guessed Lan Shengli's response.

After Kobe's continuous backs here, he suddenly dribbled the ball with his left hand, turned towards the high position, and crossed towards the basket.

Seeing this, Johnson immediately defended the past, Hill resisted in front, Johnson surrounded him from behind, and the two formed a double-team for Kobe in an instant.

Seeing this, Kobe immediately made a very concealed pass with his left hand and passed it towards the free throw line.

"Three seconds~!!"

Lan Shengli reminded the referee here.

However, the ball quickly left Kobe's hands and was given to Gasol who suddenly went down.

Gasol, who was going down fast, had no time to brake, holding the ball in a slam dunk posture, and preparing to shoot towards the basket.

Johnson has no way out at this moment, and can only use his body to stop him.

Gasol collided directly with Johnson, and Johnson fell to the ground in response, but Gasol maintained a coherent movement, throwing the ball towards the basket with one hand~

"Swipe~!!"

"Beep~!!!"

The ball went into the net hollow, and the referee's whistle sounded at the same time.

Blocking fouls, Gasol has a chance to score a "2+1".

There was no whistleblowing for Novak's physical contact just now, but now the collision between Gasol and Johnson has whistled for a defensive foul by the Clippers. This may be the advantage of the home court.

Lan Shengli shook his head helplessly, expressing his incomprehension of the penalty.

"Clap~"

Gasol and Kobe celebrated by high-fiving. If these two people can form a high-low cooperation, it will be really difficult for the Clippers to deal with it. After all, this is "star play."

But putting aside the referee's problem, the Lakers' triangle offense did still penetrate the Clippers' defensive system.

Lan Shengli's way of letting Camby defend Odom has not been successful so far.

Because the Lakers have too many players who can post up in the low post.

"When we were attacking just now, you didn't whistle for the physical contact, and now you shouldn't whistle for the physical contact, you should treat it equally~!!"

Here, Gasol was about to make a free throw, and Lan Shengli chatted with the referee on the side.

Fighting for the interests of the players is also what a head coach needs to do.

"I know how to officiate the game~"

The referee responded.

"Clang~, clang~, brush~!!"

Gasol's free throw here, the ball bounced twice and still scored.

The point difference continued to be chased, and it seemed that it was about to reach a gap of one goal.

"Since it is not easy to limit the Lakers' triangle offense on the defensive end, then simply change your thinking and use offense to maintain the lead~"

Lan Shengli looked at the situation on the field and analyzed it.

"Hey!!"

Thinking about it, Lan Shengli immediately yelled at Hill who was dribbling, and made a "thumbs up" gesture.

What is the tactic of this "thumbs" signal may soon be revealed.

I saw that the Clippers' offense had already started. Harden didn't take the initiative to ask for the ball this time, but sank near the baseline.

Hill dribbled the ball and made a pick-and-roll cooperation with Camby. Seeing that Gasol didn't step forward to block, but recovered to the basket, Hill immediately passed the ball back to the high position and stood at the free throw line Camby near the top arc.

Fisher saw that Camby was already open and wanted to make up the defense, but he was worried that he would lose the defense against Hill, so he gave up the defense against Camby who was holding the ball.

After Hill pulled aside, it suddenly became a situation where Camby was unattended to catch the ball in the high post.

Although Camby's biggest feature is blocking shots, he also has a certain shooting ability on the offensive end. Although the shooting range is not very far, how difficult is it for an NBA player when no one is defending~? !

"Swipe~!!!"

Although the shooting posture is weird, but the long-range mid-range shot is still hit steadily.

Lan Shengli's "thumbs" tactic succeeded.

It turns out that the thumb tactic is that after the pick-and-roll is coordinated, the inside players pull back to open up the defensive space, and the outside players wait for the opportunity to move. It is a very simple and effective offensive coordination.

However, this cooperation requires inside players to have a certain shooting ability.

If it's a pick-and-roll with Jordan, it doesn't make sense to let Jordan bounce off.

"It's really not easy for Bruce to come up with such a tactic in such a short period of time under the high-pressure situation of Zen Master's triangle attack. Bruce has withstood the pressure and withstood the test. Come on, let's see. Zen Master, what should we do next~!!"

The general manager watched the game and sighed.

This game seems to have slowly evolved into a game between Zen Master and Lan Shengli's head coach.
