I'm really good at shooting.

In the second round, the Knicks VS the Eagles, the Bulls VS the Pacers.

Well, if you are a fan of the Eastern Conference, you just want to press the fast forward button at this time and see the Knicks and Bulls earlier.

Before the start of the second round of the game, the league announced the second batch of awards of the season, the best rookie and best defensive player, as well as the rookie lineup.

The best rookie, Damian Lillard averaged 19 points and 6.5 assists per game, beating teammate No. [-] pick Anthony Davis to be elected.

It is worth mentioning that Lillard's total vote rate exceeded 55%, which is definitely a big surprise for Denver fans.

The results of the best rookie are surprising, and then the results of dpoy are even more surprising.

Yao Ming was elected dpoy!

This is also the first time in his career!

Although in terms of statistics, Yao Ming is completely worthy, but before the Wizards, his statistics were better than this before the season, but in the end he only made a first defense.

One of the most telling things about this is that it does matter what team you play on.

Because this selection was voted by the media, not to mention how many media there are in Los Angeles, the exposure rate of the Lakers is different.

Coupled with the excellent record of the Lakers, it will give you a feeling of "so he is so good".

Yao Ming didn't expect it himself, but he was very happy to win the award, and the way he did it was very Chinese.

He invited his teammates to have a meal directly after training.

This can be regarded as a collective relaxation for the teammates before the fierce semi-finals.

A day later, the divisional semifinals officially kicked off.

The game between the Lakers and the Spurs started on the first day.

The Staples Center was full, and the front row was full of Hollywood stars.

Nicholson, the team's number one fan, was among them, and Sun Hao's wife Scarlett also sat there with little Beijing.

At this time, Little Beijing was already very temperamental. Although he was young, he was pretty and cute.

When warming up before the game, Popovich and Sun Hao glanced at each other inadvertently.

At a glance, I don't know how many pictures flashed back in the minds of the two of them, and finally both of them smiled in unison.

If this smile is captured by the media, it can create many scenes.

As the saying goes, when there are too many opponents, it is easy to develop the feeling of being a hero and cherishing a hero. Besides, many childhood enemies may end up in the same bed.

But in fact, those, more will be the content of the media YY.

At this time, Popovich is a typical "smile on the face, mmp in the heart".

He has only one os at the moment: why is it you again!

Chapter 697 "Stone Buddha" is Helpless!

As for Sun Hao, it was just the opposite. To describe it in one sentence, it would be: Hey, I caught you again!

Gearing up, eager to try.

An interesting scene before the game, followed by the opening ceremony!

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of both sides came out one after another.

For the Spurs, Parker, Gary Neal, Leonard, Duncan, Thiago Splitter.

For the Warriors, Knight, Sun Hao, Carter, Millsap, Yao Ming.

Ginobili?

He is 35 years old, so he really can only play as a substitute at the moment.

Yao Ming and Split's jump ball in the middle circle.

Splitter is a third-year student, but he was not in the same class as Curry Harden, but was in the same class as Durant earlier.

A Brazilian player who played in La Liga and played in Europe for another three years to join the NBA after being selected, Sun Hao is very familiar with this experience.

After the end of Brazil's golden generation, Splitter, who is 2 meters tall and has a wingspan of 11 meters, can be regarded as one of the core players of the Brazilian men's basketball team.

But in front of Yao Ming, even with the tinfoil perm hairstyle to support his height, he still looks a bit short in front of Yao Ming.

As soon as the whistle blew, Yao Ming returned the ball to the Lakers half, and the semifinals between the Lakers and the Spurs officially began.

The Lakers' first attack surprised Popovich on the sidelines.

Because it was the triangle attack he was familiar with, but the person who launched the attack was not the Sun Hao he had expected.

Generally speaking, the Lakers start with Sun Hao-Carter-Yao Ming establishing a triangle, and then Sun Hao hangs to Yao Ming to attack.

But the Lakers started the game with Knight giving the ball and moving to the bottom corner, forming a Knight-Carter-Yao triangle.

The tactics looked the same, but the people had changed.

This is to see that Yao Ming was in good condition in the first round, but in the second round he was completely let go?

The first thought that popped into Popovich's mind was this.

And just as he was thinking this way, Carter had already lobbed the ball to Yao Ming at the basket.

Without him yelling, the Spurs' strong-side corner defense is already closing in.

Although Knight has a good three-pointer, it is still far behind Sun Hao.

But at this time, the change of the triangle tactics came out.

After Carter fed the ball in, he didn't simply stand on the outside to create space, but began to move towards the top of the arc.

Then, an off-ball pick-and-roll to the right of the top three-point line occurred.

And after this pick-and-roll happened, the Lakers' offensive goals quickly surfaced.

This is not a low-post attack designed for Yao Ming, but a corner pick-and-roll designed for Sun Hao!

Just as Sun Hao was removed, Yao Ming, who was double-teamed, had already passed the ball.

From person to ball, the tacit understanding established between the two was not only developed in the Lakers this season!

Because Knight also cuts to the basket at the same time, the Spurs' defensive rotation can't keep up at this time.

After Sun Hao received the ball, he had a very good shooting space, and he didn't hesitate, just raised his hand and threw it.

Familiar rhythm, familiar picture, and familiar feeling!

Before the goal was scored, the Staples Center had already burst into cheers from the fans.

That's right, they knew the ball was going to go in before the ball went in!

The cheers were answered by the ball going straight through the net.

Because of the cheers, even the sound of it entering the net was overshadowed.

But this made the fans even more excited, and many stood up in cheers.

This damn sense of ritual!

Popovich frowned as he felt the explosion in his ears.

Even though he was scheming, he didn't expect the Lakers to play him in the first round.

Why do you say it's a joke?

Because with Carter's basketball IQ and his status in the Lakers team, it is impossible to adjust the team's tactics in a short period of time.

So the only possibility is that the Lakers did it intentionally.

Popovich was a little annoyed, but he misunderstood Harris.

With Harris' ability, playing Popovich is a bit difficult for him.

This tactical adjustment of the Lakers is actually what Sun Hao said to Yao Ming before the game: to prevent Yao Ming from being injured, the focus of offense should be shifted from the inside to the outside.

But if you have to say it is a joke, it can actually be counted.

Because the triangle tactic at the beginning obviously meant to feint.

The Spurs' offense, Parker holds the ball, and Duncan pulls to a high pick-and-roll.

A bit similar to the Lakers, the Spurs' offense was also launched from the outside.

But the difference is that they are actively changing.

Although Duncan is a "stone Buddha" standing tall, he is 36 years old after all. Even if his ability is still at the highest level, his physical fitness cannot keep up.

In contrast, Parker is just 30 years old as a guard and is ushering in the peak of his career.

So this season, not only is Parker the Spurs' scoring leader, but also a lot of the team's offenses are initiated from him.

After a quick break-in after a pick-and-roll, Parker's sports car also accelerates very quickly in a short distance.

But Millsap had good footwork and followed Parker.

Parker went to the inside, turned on the top mode directly, made a big circle around Millsap, and then wiped the board and hit the ball into the basket.

When Parker was at his peak, in addition to the nickname "Sports Car", he also had the nickname "Little Prince Spinning Top".

His driving top layup is a masterpiece, many times you know he will spin, but you just can't keep up.

The Lakers caught the Spurs by surprise at the beginning, but the Spurs can reach the semifinals in the Western Conference this season. They also have their own unique things, unparalleled tacit understanding and perseverance.

Just like looking at a person, you can see his shortcomings, but at the same time you should also see his strengths.

The game between the two sides has just started, but the fans' emotions have already been pulled up.

How can this be more exciting than the first round!

The Lakers' offense and on-court tactics have changed again!

Or the Knight-Carter-Yao triangle.

But this time Carter didn't continue to hang the ball in.

Because on the weak side, Millsap moved to the top of the arc to play a pick-and-roll for Sun Hao.

After dismantling, Sun Hao moved to the weak side, and Carter was also ready to pass the ball.

This seems to be a tactic in which the strong side turns to the weak side, and the weak side plays a triangle.

Once again, the Spurs had rich experience and went directly to flank Sun Hao in advance.

Judging from the way of attacking with a feint in the opening game, there is a high probability that the Lakers will be Sun Hao's main player tonight.

But in the next second, Popovich reached out and rubbed his face.

Because the Spurs were once again "feinted"!

Carter did not pass the ball to Sun Hao, but directly to Millsap!

After giving Sun Hao a pick and roll, Millsap disassembled and cut to the basket!

Another tactical evolution of the triangle offense!

Millsap rushed to the basket quickly after receiving the ball. At this time, Neal, who was supposed to switch to him, had no time to chase him.

Splitter at the basket didn't dare to let go of Yao Ming to help defend.

As a result, Millsap rushed in quickly after receiving the ball, and with a light leap, he scored with a one-handed dunk!

Once again, Staples Center was lit with cheers.

The triangle tactics played by the Lakers are even better than those in the previous dynasty!

Rambis' decision to add role players to the offense turned out to be undeniably correct.

Use a very vivid thing to describe: women wear clothes.

Before this, the triangle tactics were like two gorgeous neon dresses, which were dazzling after being put on by the beauties.

But now, fans find that this dress can also make people beautiful when worn on ordinary people.

As the saying goes: people rely on clothes, beauty depends on bright clothes! (play money!)

But that's probably what it means. The fans also discovered on this Lakers team that the triangle offense is not only an exclusive tactic that can become a superstar.

Or this is closer to the original intention of the elder Winter inventing this tactic: to allow more people to participate in the offense, and then show the team's ability.
