Chapter 29

"mine!"

Duguming felt that he stretched out his hand to show that he was careless.

Who would have thought that when Kobe caught the ball from the bottom line at a 45-degree angle, he would shoot a three-pointer without doing anything.

This is Ray Allen's style, right?
"It's okay, it's just the first ball."

With the ball in his hands, Iverson pondered how to launch the offense against Harper's impeccable defense.

Harper is probably one of the most underrated players.

Don’t look at him averaging only two or three points per game, but this does not mean that he has no scoring ability. In his rookie season, he was able to average 22 points and 2.5 steals per game. In the second year of the playoffs , Facing Jordan's defense, he could score 30 points on the spot.

In the early 90s, when the inside line was rampant, such outside players were definitely among the top players in the league.

If it is said that his offensive performance is achieved in a weak team, his defensive ability is solid.

After all, with Jordan on the same team, after being abused in training for three years, his defensive skills can naturally rise to a terrifying level.

The backcourt partner he formed with Jordan can be said to be the strongest perimeter defensive combination in NBA history.

Is Payton enough?
The first few point guards in history, the playoffs were defended by Harper, who doubted his life.

The poor man's version of Jordan is not called casually.

Facing Harper, Iverson's only advantage is speed.

His footsteps stabbed out like a sharp sword. After an increase in speed, he quickly changed his rhythm, changed direction, passed Harper, and cut into the three-point line from the left.

Although Harper was stunned, he did not completely lose his position. He tried his best to back up while squeezing Iverson's space with his body.

At this time, Fisher also helped defend from the side.

Facing the defense of the two players, Iverson managed to break through the encirclement and gave the ball to Hill.

Seeing that there was no chance, Hill passed the ball to Du Guming again.

"You can beat Fox, but you can't beat me."

Kobe said glaringly.

Fox's defensive ability can only be considered excellent, while Kobe is excellent.

Dugu Ming did not play recklessly, but called Hill to help cover.

That's how they played the previous three games.

Efficient screens can completely tear apart the Lakers' defense.

But this time, Dugu Ming miscalculated.

Before Hill could cover and fall into position, Kobe posted up first.

The new policy of the Lakers is to cover and not change defenses.

Since you guys don't switch defenses, then you're welcome. Duguming dribbles the ball directly, forcing Kobe who is close to him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Duguming entered the penalty area, Fisher, Harper, and Horry all surrounded him. The Lakers' defense line shrank to an inch in an instant, and Duguming was caught off guard.

Snapped!
The ball was intercepted by Kobe.

The Lakers launched a fast break and Harper made a layup.

Easy side to fight again, Iverson completed a breakthrough jumper with an emergency stop, but hit the iron.

After the opening few rounds, the score became 12 to 6, and the Lakers had the advantage.

Du Guming's expression was a bit dignified, he was a little surprised by the Lakers' defensive strategy.

When the 76ers' players are on the outside, they defend one-on-one. Once they enter the penalty area, the Lakers resolutely double-team the defense.

Kobe, Harper, and Horry are all players with excellent athletic ability. Although Fisher is not fast, he is young and has plenty of energy. Such a group of people stay on the court, even if the 76ers take a little space, they It can also be made up in a very short time.

And the huge O'Neal guarding the basket is really a top two. As long as he stands under the basket, it is like a wall, and no one can easily score on his head.

The offensive end of the Lakers also showed amazing team ability.

Horry, the big man at the 4 position, is known for his rough and dirty defensive style, but he actually has an excellent three-pointer.

Before 2016, who made the most three-pointers in the Finals?
Not Curry.

Not Ray Allen, Miller, or Kobe.

It was this seemingly unattractive Horry whose name sounded a little strange.

He's got a super big heart, Mr. Key.

By the way, Fisher ranks fifth in the finals three-pointers made list.

Coupled with Kobe, the three of them actually formed a musketeer combination, constantly blasting three-pointers from the outside.

These three musketeers, although their career three-point shooting percentages are less than 40.00%, but they can send the basketball into the hoop in key games.

Although Fox is not on the court, but the Lakers have dual point guards, plus the non-stick O'Neal and Horry, the basketball conduction work is still going on in an orderly manner.

When a team has four players actively sharing the basketball, they are hard to beat.

And when the 76ers are too inclined to defend the perimeter, the basketball will return to O'Neal at the basket.

What kind of experience would it be like to let O'Neal wreak havoc in an empty restricted area alone?
It was really letting a shark swim into a shallow beach full of people.

In addition, there are various air cuts after screens, Kobe's alley-oop dunks and back hits, Harper's stable mid-range shots, and the Lakers' offensive methods are various. After the first quarter, the Lakers actually slashed Scored 38 points, leading the 76ers by as much as 15 points!
The 76ers were obviously in a mess. Even if Larry Brown called two timeouts in a row, they couldn't stop the gap from getting bigger and bigger.

If Dugu Ming, who has watched modern basketball for more than ten years, evaluates it, the current performance of the Lakers is like the Warriors in 2016 who were slightly inferior in three-pointers but strengthened the inside.

Well, that's right, when Horry and O'Neal were mentioned as outside screens and increased their running range, this Lakers team is almost an alternative death five small lineup.

Although the five death tactics were invented by Wharton and perfected by Steve Kerr, don't forget that these two are disciples of the Zen master.

Run the routine of the shooter, and the Zen master can also play it!
"Is that how it is?"

The fans of the 76ers were dumbfounded. They thought that the team could continue the excellent performance of the previous game and easily win another victory.

But after watching the game, I found that it was not the same thing at all.

The strength of the Lakers seems to be stronger.

"This Chinese is not very good. I have traveled thousands of miles to watch his game."

In the VIP audience in the front row, a flirtatiously dressed sexy woman raised her thighs and said with some disgust.

Kardashian was disappointed. The perfect match for her conquest was the superhero who saved the team, not the lost loser.

"If we want to win, the first thing we need to do is how to break through their system defense..."

Larry Brown frowned and said that he had discovered the crux of the problem. The 76ers' offense was struggling under the Lakers' iron barrel formation.

But his words got stuck here, because he didn't know how to solve this problem.

Even the head coach can't help it, and the haze in the hearts of the 76ers has deepened.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Du Guming, who had been pondering for a long time, spoke.

"How about... let's chop the shark!"
