NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

The Nets took Game [-] down.

This made the Lakers' home court advantage disappear.

This is not a good thing for the Lakers.

The offense shown by the Nets in the second game was a very big crisis for the Lakers.

After all, the firepower of the Big Three is not what the Lakers can match now.

Because the two games on the Lakers' side are over.

So there will be two days off, and then it will be in Brooklyn for the third and fourth games.

So these two days are the time for the Lakers to find a way to defend the Nets.

On the second day, the entire coaching staff of the Lakers also came to the conference room.

This time there is only one problem, and that is how to defend the Nets' Big Three.

This issue is already on the surface.

When everyone saw this question, they were also meditating there.

It's not that they don't want to talk, it's that they really don't know what to say.

The abilities of the Big Three of the Nets are very clear to them now.

On the offensive end, the Lakers are absolutely on par with the Nets.

But the difficulty lies on the defensive end. It is really that the Lakers have too few people who can defend the Big Three.

Chen Tian is one, but there is only Chen Tian.

Tucker's performance in defending James is still okay.

But it is simply too difficult for Tucker to guard James.

In fact, Chen Tian and Tucker are still very effective in defending James and Durant.

This is also because the tacit understanding between Tucker and Chen Tian is very good, so that Durant and James can be restrained.

The most troublesome thing for everyone is actually Owen.

The Lakers' point guard is actually not weak, both Matthew and Brunson are good.

But getting them to defend Irving is a little more difficult.

Fortunately, Matthew can limit Owen, but that is just a drop in the bucket.

After all, Matthew can defend a top pitcher like Curry.

But it's not enough to defend a rhythm master like Irving.

In the previous few seasons, when Matthew defended Irving, he was really good.

That's because Matthew's peak state was in those few seasons.

And with a rhythm master like Irving, Matthew's defensive state has also changed after it is not common in the league.

But no one expected that Irving would come back in the finals.

This is a huge blow to the Lakers.

Owen's scoring ability is that he may not be able to stop him with defense, let alone without defense.

So how to restrict Irving has become a problem for the Lakers now.

Charlie and Harry sat there not knowing what to do.

As far as the two of them are concerned, they will make some minor repairs to the team's tactics.

But when it comes to the main tactics of the team, Monty and Kaleman are still needed to arrange them.

Monty also looked at Kaleman at this time.

Speaking of defensive tactics, Monty asked himself that he was not as good as Kaleman.

So now how the Lakers defend the Nets has become a problem for Kaleman.

After thinking about it for a while, Kaleman also thought about it and said.

"What do you think about letting Caruso come up?"

When Kaleman said this, the entire coaching staff was also a little puzzled.

"Let jr go off the field?"

Charlie also asked.

Kariman shook his head.

"No, let Matthew go back to the bench."

"Let Matthew return to the bench?!"

Harry also shouted in shock,

Monty was also a little shocked on the side.

"What do you mean, don't keep it, just say it."

Monty also urged.

"It's actually very simple. In the finals between the Lakers and the 76ers, when the Lakers had no way to limit Iverson, the Lakers sent Tyronn Lue!"

"His task is only one, and that is to defend Iverson, and the rest only needs to be handed over to the ok combination."

As soon as Kaleman said this, the coaching staff naturally understood.

"Why did you let Caruso go up?"

Harry asked, still a little puzzled.

"Caruso's current defensive ability is getting better and better!"

"And his biggest point is that his defense has not yet been finalized, which is incomparable to Matthew!"

"So letting him defend Irving is a good choice."

Kaleman's words successfully moved Monty.

In the end, Monty also decided to promote Caruso to the starting lineup.

……

When the team trained the next day, Monty also announced this matter.

This made Caruso very excited.

But Caruso also knew that this was an opportunity he had to seize.

Playing as a starter on the stage of the finals, as long as he performs well enough, then the future will be the best time for him to develop.

After determining the team's starting lineup, the team also started a day of training.

Soon the matchup of the third game of the finals is coming soon.

……

On the second day, the entire Lakers team also came to Brooklyn.

The third game of the finals here is also about to start.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the third game of the nba finals is about to start.

This game is still the O'Neill trio to explain.

"The third game of the finals is about to start!"

"For this game, O'Neal, what do you and Barkley think?"

Kenny also asked at the commentary booth.

O'Neill looked at Barkley and motioned him to speak first.

"For this game, my opinion is still that point, that is, the Lakers can't find a way to limit the Big Three, which is very dangerous for the Lakers."

After Barkley finished speaking, O'Neal also said here.

"For a championship team like the Lakers, it is impossible to make the same mistake twice!"

"The Lakers have a lot of good defensive players in their lineup. It can even be said that their lineup defense is the best in the league!"

"Coupled with Kaleman, a top defensive coach, two days is enough for the Lakers to find a way."

As soon as O'Neill said this, Barkley and Kenny also nodded.

Both of them also agreed with O'Neill's words.

After all, the Lakers can play too many players, which allows the Lakers to quickly find a way.

This is also an ability of the Lakers as the defending champion.

……

At this time, Kenny also got the starting list of the two teams.

"Sure enough, the Lakers have made changes!"

"Taker, Chen Tian, ​​jr, and Jokic have not changed much, but they put Caruso in the starting lineup."

After Kenny finished speaking, O'Neill also thought about it.

"It seems that Caruso is here to defend Irving, and this is also a lineup that the Lakers will experiment with."

And Kenny went on to say.

"There is no lineup change on the Nets side. In addition to the Big Three, there are Dinwiddie and Allen!"

"Allen was once again promoted to the starting lineup, but I don't know if this guy will be beaten by Jokic."

When Kenny said this, he also laughed.

Allen was beaten by Jokic in the first game and couldn't find North.

In the second game, the Nets put them on the bench.

But in this game, Allen returned to the starting lineup, which made many fans very puzzled.

After all, Allen's performance in the first game made many people very disappointed with him.

So Allen became the starter again in this game, I hope he can perform better.

The Nets fans are also praying silently in their hearts.

……

Soon the starting players of the two teams also came to the court, and Jokic and Allen stood in the middle circle at the same time.

As the referee threw the ball high, Jokic and Allen also jumped up hard.

Allen finally jumped the ball, and the third game of the finals officially started.
