New Century Basketball Frenzy

Chapter 351 Offense is the best defense
The Lakers really have no other way except to let Zhang Yi open the situation as Wacker said.Because their lineup is not so much a team with multiple strengths and strong comprehensive capabilities, it is better to be a standard single-core team.

Zhang Yi's ability is the most powerful weapon for the Lakers now.In order to be able to activate this absolute core, Wacker can only increase the lethality in other positions of the Lakers and involve the opponent's defense.

There is no way, Wacker put on a stronger offensive lineup.The corresponding defense has become much worse.

Seeing such an opponent lineup, the Spurs immediately started to play fast, and their changes were very accurate.Simpkins led Zhang Yi to attract the only defensive player on the Lakers, and of course there will be a lot of opportunities for others.

If the Spurs' average number of three-pointers per game may not be considered top in the league, but their number of shots is indeed one of the best among all teams.

This is because Simpkins, as the core of the team, can always find the best opportunities for outside shooters, even if the offensive round of basketball will not pass through his hands.

But Simpkins can always find opportunities by running and drive the defense, which affects the overall situation and tilts in the direction of the Spurs.

Zhang Yi has watched so many Simpkins performances, and he is actually learning how to use his own strength to involve the Spurs' defense.Because whether it is offense or defense, the core of the team should always control the situation.

This is the reason why even the strongest offensive players will be required to defend.Otherwise he wouldn't be a thoroughly great player.

After being pulled away by Simpkins, Zhang Yi did not choose to continue to defend, but immediately made eye contact with his opponent.The Lakers switch defenses!Zhang Yi switched to the perimeter to defend the two shooters Raj and Felton.

This point is actually a bit out of Simpkins' thinking, because the Lakers' lineup can only defend him from Zhang Yi, and putting anyone in front of him is no different from air defense.

So when they saw the defense change, the Spurs immediately changed their tactics and became Simpkins' singles!This is also the scoring method that the Spurs have frequently used in recent games.

It's not that Simpkins asked for it on his own initiative, and he never made such a seemingly unreasonable request to the head coach.After all, it's really not too many for the core of the team to have about ten singles in a single game.

What's more, the previous Simpkins may not even have five times, so the scoring is basically based on the catch and jump shot after running.Or a second attack after grabbing the board.

This is almost unbelievable for other stars, after all, his status is not an ordinary second-rate star.No matter how strong Zhang Yi is, his influence on the court may not be as good as Simpkins.

Not to mention that Zhang Yi can get at least 20 shots in a single game, and about 15 of them are obtained through one-on-one singles.

This is the difference between a superstar and a superstar.This is the reason why Simpkins was also rated as the league's No. [-] strongest attacker who does not occupy the ball by the head coaches of all teams.

Now Simpkins has a singles opportunity, and of course he will not waste the opportunity.After receiving the ball, seeing that Zhang Yi didn't intend to come back to help defend, he decisively crossed over the first defender.After going to the basket, Wally came to help defend...

This is also expected, because for the Lakers, apart from Zhang Yi, the player who can effectively protect the basket is really the short center Wally.

The current Lakers have no defense. Zhang Yi defends the outside line from the outside, and the defense on the inside naturally requires Wally to do his best.

It's just that Simpkins has already considered that he will be defended by Wall-E, so he didn't make a direct shot for the layup, but made a pull-back backhand layup when the opponent defended him!

After seeing this wonderful goal, the audience burst into warm applause.If it weren't for the fact that Simpkins doesn't often play such performances that reflect personal ability, everyone would think this is a routine operation.

"Simpkins' physical fitness is actually more like the basketball god Michael Jordan!" said the live commentator excitedly.He is really not an exaggeration, because compared to other third positions, Simpkins' core strength is really terrifying.

Not to mention terrifying arms and a giant hand.

From every angle, he resembles the Michael Jordan of the year.Not to mention that many players in the league know that even the drill freak is exactly the same.

Of course, Zhang Yifang's idea cannot be said to be wrong. After all, if the Spurs shooter is allowed to shoot, the final result may only be to be severely beaten.

If Simpkins is only allowed to play alone, he may at least be tired.This is helpless and the only feasible tactic.

Of course, since defense has been sacrificed, the Lakers' offense has indeed improved a lot.After all, the newly added No. [-] and No. [-] have three-pointers, and they have good athletic ability.

They were originally the bench thugs of the Lakers, and now they are mentioned in the rotation in important games. Of course, such a good opportunity to perform will not be missed.

A little bit of the Spurs' defensive loopholes will be seized by them, if it is not because the feel has not yet warmed up.Then the Lakers' army of shooters can play a wonderful offense.

The ball bounced out of the frame, but Wally grabbed the rebound desperately and succeeded in the second attack.

It can be seen that Hook's expression is very angry, of course it's because he didn't expect Wall-E to have such a troublesome side.

The ability to grab boards is also where Wacker focuses on strengthening WALL-E in individual training. If there is anything that his son can rely on in the future, it must be the ability to defend and grab boards!

And protecting the frame has never been the specialty of tall players. The rebounding idiot Rodman was only 1 meters tall.Therefore, it is entirely possible for Wall-E's athletic ability to meet the conditions of a top frame protector, so what Wacker has to do is to hire the strongest frame protector who has just retired to teach him experience.

Although Wally's growth was not shown on the court, it was also because the Lakers' shooting percentage in previous games was too high.Meeting the Spurs is a good opportunity to test his growth.

So no matter whether the Lakers can shoot from the outside, with the top rebounder on the inside, it will naturally relieve the worries of outside shooters.

Zhang Yi and Simpkins are in a mutual restraint relationship, which is no problem at all, but if the Lakers' offense is getting better and better.

Simpkins, who is the core of the defense, is bound to join the team's overall defense and relax the team's personal marking of Zhang Yi.Wacker was waiting for this moment.

Until the Lakers made the first three-pointer, the Spurs' defensive lineup immediately began to move outside.
