NBA: I am the card dealer

Chapter 475: Win Tianwang Mountain!

The commentator analyzed: "In this case, the Lakers have lost three main players, and the Warriors have lost Pachulia and Thompson, both of whom are short of major generals, but the Lakers' situation is obviously more serious!"

Commentator: "This is not necessarily true. After George hit a three-pointer, there were additional free throws. With three free throws and one throw, the Lakers can lead by at least 14 points and still have the ball. As a superstar, Xue Liancheng, with this score I think there are certain advantages to leading the team alone.”

Host: "Yes! I guess the Lakers fans at the scene thought the same way, so they didn't continue to make trouble."

After all, the Lakers now have an absolute score advantage. Lakers fans still hope that the game will continue. If there is a rematch, they will suffer a big loss.

As the referee's whistle sounded, Xue Liancheng stood on the free throw line and replaced George's 3+1 free throw.

No doubt, a solid hit.

Then he made three free throws in a row, and still hit them steadily. His open shots received a 20% bonus. It plays a big role here.

in this way.

The score became 55:41. In this round, the Lakers scored 7 points in a row, but the price they paid was that George was gone.

Lakers fans felt particularly sad and angry, but Warriors fans felt so aggrieved. Counting the extra penalties, it was already four free throws and one throw. This was a black whistle!

Anyway, they are not satisfied with the result.

of course.

Next.

The Warriors may have anticipated this, and Clark came up to help defend.

Needless to say, Curry and Durant, Clark is very accurate in three-pointers this season and has great energy in attacking the basket.

of course.

After the free throw, the Lakers still had the ball.

Thompson, Green, and Pachulia are the starting lineup of the Warriors. Their importance is self-evident, especially their role on the defensive end. As a result, all three of them were eliminated, which meant that the Warriors' defensive system collapsed across the board.

The lineups of both sides have also undergone huge changes.

After Xue Liancheng received the ball, he stretched out his hand to stabilize it, and then waved for Zubac to come out for a pick-and-roll.

The two sides continued in this high-speed offensive rhythm.

In other words, the Warriors have no one available.

The Warriors quickly served and began to rush forward. The impact was so fast that Zubac obviously couldn't keep up.

After Xue Liancheng came in, he threw a high ball. Zubac easily pushed the ball into the basket. Clark was desperately defending, but he seemed to have no defense.

Randall's vacancy was filled by James Johnson.

but.

Playing Joe Johnson may be to increase organizational points and ball-handling points, while playing Glenn Robinson and James Johnson is definitely for defense.

That's the benefit of having height.

On the Warriors' side, Thompson and Pachulia were expelled, and they completely switched to a smaller lineup.

The height difference is too much.

Curry, Clark, Livingston, Iguodala, Durant.

Mike Brown obviously feels that defense is as important as offense.

Iguodala is an important point in pass-cut coordination.

They have the best offensive organization in the league, and their offense doesn't need to worry at all.

But the Lakers obviously don't think so.

So they had to speed up, give up defense, and go all out to attack the Lakers.

pity.

The disadvantages are also obvious.

But the advantage of this lineup is that it is extremely offensive.

With the Warriors' quick transition, Iguodala also scored one.

This kind of lineup structure can be said to be born for offense.

In this round, after Zubac helped block the opponent, he immediately turned around and went downhill.

For the Lakers, without George, Randle, and Courtney Lee, for some unknown reason, Mike Brown did not play Clarkson, but fished Joe Johnson out of the deep end of the bench. .

of course.

In addition, Glenn Robinson has also entered people's field of vision with his strong defense.

The Lakers' lineup has become Xue Liancheng, Joe Johnson, Glenn Robinson, James Johnson, and Zubac.

And the game continues.

Sometimes they are flanked, leading to mistakes.

Livingston is known as the little prince of CIC, but in fact his organizational ability is seriously underestimated.

After a season of training, the quality of Zubac's pick-and-roll screens has improved a lot, and his passing skills have also improved significantly.

The presence of Zubac makes the Lakers' pick-and-roll offense quite unsolvable.

Except for Livingston and Durant, no one is 200cm tall, and Livingston is only 201cm. With such a height in the lineup, you can imagine how much defensive pressure there is.

When the Warriors fail to make timely fast break transitions and fall into a positional battle, Zubac can effectively protect the frame and has a huge rebounding advantage.

Warriors don't have these things.

Moreover, their touch was not that good, so the two sides remained in a stalemate with a score difference between 12 and 16 until halftime.

The second half.

Both sides also failed to come up with effective solutions to solve the problem.

The main thing is that the lineup has too many flaws.

Except for Xue Liancheng, the other four main players of the Lakers are gone. How can they change the lineup? How to change tactics? How to focus specifically?

The Warriors are no different. In addition to Curry and Durant, they are also missing most of the starting lineup. The defensive end is almost full of loopholes and cannot be defended.

Until the fourth quarter, Curry suddenly went berserk and hit two three-pointers in a row, narrowing the point difference to 2 points in one fell swoop.

pity.

The Warriors' defense is really bad.

Xue Liancheng immediately cooperated with his teammates and easily scored an unexpected air cut, bringing the point difference back to 11 points.

The commentator looked at it and shook his head: "There is no way for the Warriors to continue like this. They have no way to guard people."

Commentator: "Thompson, Green, and Pachulia are all gone. Their defensive system has collapsed. If the Warriors want to win, the only way is to attack with all their strength. On the other hand, the Lakers, as long as Xue Liancheng is still there, their offensive system will be No problem, how to play is still how to play, the only impact may be that Xue Liancheng faces increased defensive pressure, but for the two FMVPs, these are small scenes, and the Lakers' defense does not rely on individuals, Mike - Brown's structure is still very successful in this regard. Of course, the individual defensive capabilities of Glenn Robinson and James Johnson are absolutely online, and they are more than enough to deal with Curry and Durant."

Host: "Yes, the Warriors did not take advantage on both offense and defense. If they fall again, the big score will be 1:3. Even if the Warriors have a full lineup, they may not be able to escape from Xue Liancheng. God, I believe no one will doubt Xue’s strength.”

The voice just fell.

Cole seemed to hear it and immediately called a timeout.

Then, McGee was sent.

The host was stunned on the spot, "What's going on? If we don't go all out to attack now, how long will it take?"

The commentator smiled and asked: "Is it possible that McGee is playing just to attack?"
