Chapter 27 We contracted this basketball
Old Dunleavy was very satisfied with the performance of the two brothers, and they joined forces to lock Andrew Bynum.
Bynum, a standard center, plays a much greater role under Phil Jackson than fans think. Once this little shark performs normally, the Lakers' triangular offensive threat will increase geometrically.
If the Lakers cannot have a support point in the inside, there is no way to talk about the triangle offense. In the end, 80% of them will still depend on the boss who plays one by one and five.
This is why the Lakers immediately became a brand new one after my sister-in-law came and was able to play a truly powerful triangle offense.
In the second quarter, the two brothers sat on the bench to rest until they were replaced in the 7th minute and 05th. At this time, the score was 33:32, and the Clippers still had a point lead.
Andrew Bynum was replaced a minute ago, but the unlucky little shark still didn't score, which made the word "impatient" clearly printed on his face.
When the Lakers attacked, Kobe signaled Bynum to come out to cover. The Sharks were actually not willing to play pick-and-roll, and were unwilling to let them go and unwillingly pulled them out to provide a cover of low quality for the boss.
Kobe first dribbled to show Crossover, and the continuous shaking dazzled Quentin Ross, then suddenly started and rushed into the inside with the cover.
Ji Guochou moved sideways and quickly made up for Kobe's defense. The latter distributed the ball to Odom outside the wing three-point line in a chic manner, and continued to run without the ball.
At this moment, Bynum had moved to the horn position, Odom held the ball outside the 45-degree three-point line on the same side. Kobe passed the ball and circled the basket, using his teammates to cover him and ran out. A triangle of the Lakers was formed.
The Lakers' triangular offense usually has at least three opportunities as long as they are played. The best opportunity for this offense is that Kobe will run back and get an open opportunity, followed by Bynum's one-on-one opportunity in the inside, and finally Odom will play one-on-one at the outside.
The Clippers' outside defense is not very good. Mobley and Cassel are still sitting off the court. Quentin Ross is defending Kobe. He was blocked by Lakers players at the basket, which gives the Lakers' triangular offense the best result, an open shot.
Kobe received a pass from Odom outside the three-point line, and made a three-pointer with an open space. The basketball drew a beautiful arc and entered the net hollow!
When the NBA measures the strength of a team, it depends on how many open shots this team can get in a game, and at the same time, allowing the opponent to get as few open shots as possible.
Of course, other data, such as turnovers, rebounds, and counterattack opportunities, the better.
The three old guys of the Spurs are getting older every year, but the team's competitiveness remains the same as before. It depends on the team's tactical execution ability. They can always make tactics and get the best results.
The same is true for the Lakers. If their triangle offense is like this time, they will naturally become the championship contender.
Kobe's three-pointers helped the team overtake the score, but they soon discovered that the unfavorable rebounding competition could also make them lose.
The two brothers played for three minutes, and with tacit cooperation and a pair of long arms at the basket, they grabbed two offensive rebounds in a row, and all of them were successfully tipped off, allowing the Clippers to relied on rebounds to overtake the score again.
The Zen master quickly called a timeout, and the rebound must be controlled, otherwise he would not win the game by relying on an occasional triangular attack.
"It's hard to imagine that Bynum, who is 216cm tall and weighs 275 pounds, has only grabbed two rebounds now. I think you're much more than him when you go up." Barkley has no good impression of this little shark. What's wrong with it? He insists on calling it Shark? He can't become a big shot at first glance!
Kenny Smith smiled: "Benum obviously doesn't use his body. He gives me the feeling on the court. He always beats his movements slowly and his body is still very stiff. It can be seen that his physical coordination is not good."
"Yes, all great players seem light and elegant when doing the movements, soft and natural, just like using softness. And this little shark gives people the feeling that it is stiff and clumsy. Although I only watched less than half a game, these two brothers give me a feeling that they have more potential than Bynum. This is the judgment of a Hall of Fame superstar."
"Yes, even a pig can give people a graceful and chic feeling when flying." Kenny Smith seized the opportunity and immediately mocked someone.
In the live room, Charles Barkley's big mouth made Lakers fans in front of the TV grit their teeth. On the contrary, Clippers fans felt a little relieved.
The Zen master made changes this timeout, replaced Ronnie Turiaf and replaced Radmanovich, who was worse than Bynum today and only grabbed one rebound.
On the live TV broadcast, the two brothers' data were listed separately. Ji Guochou scored 4 points, 5 rebounds and 1 block, Ji Guomo's scored 9 points, 4 rebounds and 1 block, and the two brothers contracted the rebound today.
The Lakers re-played, and Bynum got a single chance in the waist position. This position was already very close to the basket. The Lakers players immediately opened the distance and created space for him to attack.
Ji Guochou gritted his teeth and resisted Bynum. He still remembered Bynum's malicious foul on him in the first quarter. He could not make malicious revenge. His revenge was to let the other party score as few points as possible.
Bynum relied on his only advantageous force and urged himself into the three-second zone with his butt. At this time, he could not continue to urge him. In order to deal with the attack generated by the "Big Shark", the league had to seize the time to take action.
The same small hook is also slightly stiff, which shows that Bynum's hook is not very good.
Ji Guoqiu stretched his long arms as high as possible, and his body jumped high, only one nail distance from his fingernails to hit the basketball. However, unless he had excellent physical fitness as good as Chamberlain, it was basically impossible to cover one-on-one hook shots, and his cover still did not cover the opponent in the end.
But this was enough. In order to avoid blocking, Bynum had to adjust the shooting arc. With his skills, with this adjustment, his shooting rate immediately dropped. In the end, the basketball did not even touch the basket, and he hit the rebound and rebounded to the other side and fell.
The ball was offensive, and neither side expected that Ji Guomomoto let the fiercely fighting Turiav push away at the basket and throw the rebound away.
Ji Guoqiu turned around to make up for defense, but it was too late. Turiav dunked at the basket.
This is the first time the Clippers have lost their frontcourt rebound today. Although it was an accident, no one could have thought that Bynum's shooting would be so biased? But this goal has inadvertently exposed Ji Guomo's weakness, that is, when facing wild beasts in the penalty area, especially the pure blue-collar worker who is full of vitality and tenacious style, his thin body will become a weakness.
This also applies to Ji Guoqiu, who is also in the center position and has lower strength and ability to fight.
Bynum is not capable enough. If he meets the main center of other teams, he will suffer physical losses.
"For rookies, Ji Guoqiu's health is excellent enough in the center position. In the first season, before training strength, he would learn from Garnett. That guy only had bones on his body in the previous few seasons, but it did not affect his defense at all." Barkley commented.
The loss of this rebound did not affect the morale of the Clippers. Mageti and Kobe staged a scoring battle on the court in the second quarter. Today, Mageti's shooting feels good, and with a sharp breakthrough, Mageti does not look inferior to the Black Mamba in this quarter alone.
Of course, no one would think that Mageti could compete with Kobe for the whole game, and he would be awesome if he could withstand the boss's time in the quarter.
Ji Guoqiu and his two jobs were at ease in the second quarter, one was responsible for defense and rebounding, the other was responsible for outside shooting, and assisting defense at the basket.
Mageti passed Ji Guomeng several times in the second quarter. The former already felt the benefits of a reliable turret on the outside, the most obvious is that the number of assists increased greatly. Ji Guomeng hit Mageti's breakthrough pass and passes one after another, and the latter also added several assist data.
The Lakers' triangular tactics give people the feeling that they are sometimes not effective, especially after Turiav came on the court, their triangular offense is even more difficult to play. The blue-collar workers have almost no understanding of triangular offense. He comes up and grabs rebounds to defend. Defending a big man who is old on the outside has already made Turiav exhausted. He feels that this kind of life is not suitable for him. He should fight against the opponent in the inside, rather than following a little flea running around outside the three-point line.
Old Dunleavy's eyes lit up. He was surprised by several cooperation between Mageti and Ji Guomo in the second quarter. The two have been having a bad relationship in the past few months, but today they cooperated well. In the past, Mageti made a breakthrough, but once he encountered the opponent's pocket array, he would be restricted. His shooting was not stable and he would have little effect on the court without being on time.
Today, Mageti's several breakthrough passes gave Ji Guomeng several shooting opportunities on the outside. The two have complementary functions. With such an excellent shooter on the outside, the opponent dared not invest too much troops in the inside to double-team Mageti, which made his breakthrough even more threatening.
In addition to Ji Guoqiu at the basket, he can shoot mid-range shots, fight for frontcourt rebounds, and pass threatening balls in the penalty area. The Clippers' offense suddenly became three-dimensional.
"The combination of these three people may have more potential to tap?" Old Dunleavy thought in his heart, but despite this, Old Dunleavy did not change his intention to trade Magety.
