Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

Just one pause.

The Trail Blazers are trying every means to solve their predicament, and the same is certainly true for the Lakers. After all, they are the lagging side. Although the point difference has reached 4 points, the ball is on the opposite side. According to the previous efficiency... the score has reached 6 points. , this probability is very high.

Now adjust all factors to the ideal state.

Before the timeout, the Lakers chased 4 points in less than 5 minutes, and with more than 7 minutes left and a 6-point difference... it is really hard to say the outcome. The Lakers' chances of winning are even smaller, not because of the temporary The reason for falling behind was because all the outbreaks were caused by Li Shengli alone.

As for Li Shengli, he glanced at the timer and found that he was really anxious.

…

Damn, did you hit me hard just now?

In this rhythm, will the Trail Blazers cheat?

Li Shengli thought about it carefully... Counting the previous 14 points and the walking layup before the timeout, he scored 16 points in less than 5 minutes. It is definitely the most efficient efficiency in theory, but the problem is that the Lakers are all hanging on themselves. On the body, it’s so easy to target.

Just think of O'Neal.

O'Neal's strength is recognized, and he will kill everyone in the Eastern Conference, but he suffers only because his free throws are too ugly. At critical moments, as long as the opponent is willing to commit fouls, sending him to the free throw line can gain the most time and opportunities.

In this game, maybe I am different from the 'shark-killing tactics' that O'Neal encountered, but it is useless to be strict about tactics, and you need to adapt on the spot, and according to the situation of this game...

I accidentally hit him too hard, and the efficiency was too high to be sanctioned.

But why are the Trail Blazers staring at themselves?

Just use the 'shark tactic' against the Lakers who is the worst free throw shooter on the court. It is not limited to you, but can be extended to everyone on the court. In essence...as long as it is not your own 100% shot, who will take the free throw? There is no guarantee of 100% hits, so the Lakers' efficiency will be reduced.

…

What Li Shengli thought of, Harris also thought of, but I don’t know if Dunleavy thought of it.

As soon as the two said a few words, the others were immediately alert and looked at each other with ugly expressions. Harris was now faced with a difficult decision... In response to the possible foul tactics of the Trail Blazers, should the Lakers change to a professional free throw shooter? Play?

If not replaced.

The Lakers' deadly defensive lineup is still there, and they can still force the Blazers' three-point frenzy to turn into a two-point frenzy, but everyone suddenly discovered for the first time... Ben in the lineup made 35.6% of his free throws, and Rodman made 43.6% of his free throws. , if he was fouled without the ball, the Lakers would probably have diarrhea.

But if you change.

The Lakers' deadly defensive lineup actively disintegrated. The possible result is that the Trail Blazers' two-point rhythm returns to the three-point rhythm. More importantly, Barkley can no longer play and enters the rotation.

Is there a free throw shooter at position 4?

Damn it, the Lakers never thought about such a weird problem!

Whoever called me would never have thought that the famous shark-killing tactic not only targeted O'Neal, but also targeted Li Shengli in this game?

…

There's no time, change! Li Shengli gritted his teeth.

Lee, think about it carefully. Ben, Barkley, and Rodman are not here. The partners we can arrange for you on the inside... Harris continued with an embarrassed look on his face: Although you can fight to the end, you have to Know the pressure you're going to face, because if it goes the way we think it goes, then I'm going to have to go to the top four free throw shooters, Kobe, Crotty, Fisher, Eddie.

I really don’t blame Harris for being hesitant this time.

Because the combination of four guards and one center is too risky, because almost all the interior tasks are Li Shengli's... an offense where one person does not cooperate and will be double-teamed, one person who does not have a partner and beats a group of people in the offensive rebounds, and even more Not to mention, a big center has to keep up with the speed of the four guards and switch offense and defense.

But there is no way.

In today's lineup, the only ones with the most stable free throws from top to bottom are Kobe, Crotty, Fisher, and Eddie. Even because they haven't thought about this situation, they can't see everyone's on-the-spot shots. No matter what, you can only select people based on past, on-paper free throw averages per game.

Of course, maybe the situation is not as bad as we thought. Maybe Dunleavy just wanted to foul you alone. Harris comforted himself.

Don't take chances. You can't lose a single point now. Just make a substitution! Li Shengli said anxiously: The four of you will follow me in a minute. You don't need to worry about the rest. Give me all three points and try your best to save them. People rush in, and the same goes for the offensive end. You don’t need to worry about it...

No, Li, are you sure you can attack by yourself?

Yes, boss, if we don't talk about offense, you can't get out of defense!

Stop talking nonsense! Let's go for the bullshit attack of riding a horse. Keep it simple. My attack is to knock everyone down first. Then if they all lie down, then I can attack them casually. I'm still 100% on the horse! Li Shengli saw that he didn't have much time. Harris immediately made his decision, turned around and glanced at the scoreboard and the technical desk and said: Tonight's penalty area...Only those who are standing are qualified to guard me, and only those who are standing are qualified to take action in front of me, no matter what. It’s useless. If you dare to steal money from me, I think they are crazy. Come with me!”

Rob...rob money? Rob what kind of money?

Where did you come from with all the nonsense? Just follow the boss!

Okay, fuck, then fuck them!

What are you waiting for? The playoffs...the Lakers are undefeated!

Stop talking nonsense, whoever misses the free throw is the fool!

Fart, it's Dasha*!

…

When the timeout expired, the lineups of both sides changed drastically.

The Trail Blazers brought out the combination of Sabonis and Rasheed Wallace, and the most important backcourt double shot of Leder + Anthony continued to play. After the first half, there was no need to worry too much about physical fitness. As for No. 3 As for the small forward, Brian Grant, who has stronger rebounding ability, will play to cooperate with the inside rebounding battle.

As for the Lakers...

The lineup after the substitution once again shocked the audience. It was incomprehensible when they played the Los Angeles Rangers before, but then they could see the Lakers' tactical intentions, and now they have... four guards, everyone is confused. , only Blazers coach Dunleavy was thoughtful.

Are they all free throw shooters?

Is this because he is afraid of committing a foul without the ball?

To be honest, Dunleavy had thought about this tactic, but he didn't have the nerve to use it when he was leading. He also thought it was a little too shameless. Although it was the playoffs... But now that he had the lead, there was no need to ruin his own style. Comment.

As for the Lakers' lineup overhaul.

Dunleavy only saw the huge variables this brought to the Blazers on both offense and defense.

The offensive end is more stable, Rasheed Wallace will be easy to play, after all, Kobe is playing the newcomer fourth position, and the defensive end is simpler, because... Li Shengli's efficiency cannot be higher.

…

With this thought, Dunleavy focused on the Blazers' offense after the timeout.

No need to say hello.

This offense was not a double shot from the backcourt, but Rasheed Wallace back-hitting Kobe at the fourth position. Kobe was really not used to this position, and he fell to the ground after being pushed. De-Wallace turned around and rushed towards the basket.

You dare to mess with Kobe? !

Seeing Kobe Bryant, who was partnering with him in the post for the first time, fall to the ground, Li Shengli was filled with anger, and the fans in the audience only saw... After Li Shengli knocked away Sabonis, he took a big step and kicked the ground, so fast that People were stunned and went straight to Rasheed Wallace.

Fuck... Rasheed, score! Sabonis roared wildly.

Excuse me, am I going to die if I step on the horse... Rasheed Wallace couldn't say anything at this moment. As soon as the idea came to his mind, he met Li Shengli in the air, because the two Blazers The offensive positions inside are on the left and right sides, so he is truly facing Li Shengli head-on.

However, a bang!

The whole world went silent.

Li Shengli made a powerful block from top to bottom and directly hit the ball.

Rasheed Wallace felt like the sky was falling, and he was immediately pressed down. But just now... As soon as he fell, Kobe Bryant got up and got the ball directly.

It's just that there's no need for the Lakers to play fast break, or even try.

Because they are in the rhythm of chasing points, playing fast break will only accelerate the Blazers to start the foul mode, instead of trying at this stage, it is naturally far inferior to letting Li Shengli play. At this time, Kobe took a look at Li Shengli in crazy mode...

Crazy!

That’s crazy!

This block is directly a gliding cap!

Kobe had to wonder... was there any place in the penalty area that Li Shengli couldn't reach?
