Chapter 350 Core
Wall didn't wait for the Lakers' defense to fall, accelerated his dribble, and used his best offensive method to attack the Lakers' defense.
Kobe lost the movement speed of his peak period and failed to block Wall. He originally wanted to foul, but when he saw that George's defense was in place, he immediately gave up the idea.
Xu Tian and Bill's confrontation scale is not at the same level as other players, using strength and weight advantages to block Bill, making him extremely uncomfortable on the court.
The Wizards' offensive axis is two guns in the backcourt. Now that Bill is suppressed, Wall alone is much less of an offensive threat.
What Josh Smith accepted was Xu Tian's concept of victory first, and he had already gotten rid of the boring theory of going forward and falling, cutting off the connection between Nene and Wall, and preventing the Wizards from playing inside.
Wall was blocked by George and was unable to complete the breakthrough. He could only dribble back to the top of the arc and look for offensive opportunities again.
George's defensive skills and experience are much better than when he first came to the Lakers. On the one hand, he is responsible for defending the opponent's arrows, and on the other hand, he has to defend Xu Tian, who has no solution on the offensive end, during training.Frequent matchups with Xu Tian made him more comfortable defending other players.
After all, Wall had no shooting ability, and was restricted by George's half-step breakthrough. In the end, he could only pass the ball to Otto Porter who was standing in the right corner.
Otto Porter was facing Kobe's defense, which was also extremely difficult, and he had no chance to make a shot.While flashing and moving, his foot stepped on the sideline and went out of bounds.
The Lakers sent the ball from the backcourt, Kobe took the ball, and immediately hit the ground to Xu Tian.
Every team should have a clear tactical core, which is the key to success.For the past 19 years, Kobe has been the core of the Lakers' offense. This season, he has been transferred to Xu Tian.
Xu Tian didn't refuse, dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, and bent over to organize the team's attack.
George set a screen for Bryant, allowing him to run a little open.
Xu Tian's pass was like a scalpel, passing through the Wizards' three defensive players and accurately falling into Kobe's hands.
Kobe pulled up one step inside the three-point line from the bottom corner on the right, and made a direct shot from a cool mid-range distance.
8-4!
Scott Brooks saw that the two defenders not only failed to open, but also failed to implement the idea of playing inside, decisively called a timeout, reminding the players to play according to the established tactics.The overall talent of the Wizards is not as good as that of the Lakers. If they play with their individual abilities, they will lose miserably.
Xu Tian simply wiped his sweat, quietly listened to the coach's tactics, and accepted Scott's coaching philosophy by the way.As the season progresses, Xu Tian's competitive level is getting higher and higher, and he already has an unsolvable individual singles ability. If the tactics don't work, he can directly break the defense alone.
The Lakers belonged to the leading side, and there was not much to adjust. After simply arranging a few screens and pass-and-cut tactics, Scott put away the tactical board.
Seeing that Scott stopped talking, Kobe asked George standing beside him, "Paul, you are the main attacking point at the beginning, why don't you play?"
George replied: "The defensive engineers have played a lot, and I have almost forgotten how to play in the Pacers."
Kobe said: "I also feel the same way. In the past, I always took the shot at critical moments, but now I am used to watching Xu play singles."
Scott said: "This is the ability of a superstar, otherwise how could the Lakers be the favorites for the championship." He is an old Laker during SHOWTIME, and he doesn't particularly need to take Kobe's face into consideration.
Xu Tian didn't say a word, and after quietly listening to the conversation between the three, he let out a sigh of relief.He is more afraid of hearing complaints, which may affect the team's chemical reaction, and he just sighed a few words, the problem is not big.
During the timeout, Scott Brooks mainly arranged tactics for Nene and Gortat, keeping Nene in the paint area and handing over the area near the penalty area to Gortat.
The inside line of the Lakers is a breakthrough, and this hole must be cut open.This is the only way to possibly beat the Lakers, just try.
Although Wall is the No. [-] pick, his career is not dazzling. In the case of dim stars in the Eastern Conference, he still cannot sit firmly at the top of the point guard position.He was suffocating in his heart, wanting to prove himself in this game.
George returned to the role of a defensive engineer, showed his energy, and tried his best to mark Wall who was holding the ball.
Wall's breakthrough relied on a speed beyond ordinary people, but unfortunately he was delayed by half a step, and he was completely unable to complete the starting speed required for the breakthrough.This is a great restriction on him, and immediately abolished the power of three successes.
Josh Smith was powerful, and he didn't suffer any loss when he went around the front to defend against the strong Nene, but he got an iron elbow secretly.He had consulted Kobe about small movements, and knew that this situation should amplify the effect of the impact, and he was pushed forward two steps with his upper body leaning forward.
The referee blows the whistle and calls Nene for a position-grabbing foul.
Wall finally found a chance to make a three-pointer, which was wasted in vain.
Nene is a man with a fiery temper. He was very dissatisfied with the referee's decision and responded directly with foul language. He believed that Josh Smith was acting and should not call a foul.
The referee's tolerance for some players in the league is quite low, and the content is in this list. After swearing twice, he immediately received a technical foul.
Gortat hurriedly ran over to pull Nene away to prevent the emotional Nene from speaking harsh words.If you really do that, you are likely to be sent off by the referee.
Nene listened to Gortat's advice, stopped pestering the referee, and walked near the center line in silence.
Xu Tian is one of the players with the most accurate free throws in the league. He executed free throws for technical fouls and steadily scored one point.
The Lakers continued to attack, and George served to Xu Tian.
Xu Tian dribbled the ball at the top of the arc to change the rhythm, continuously dribbled the ball under the crotch, faked the shoulders with ball-handling skills, swayed a certain amount of space, and broke through the defensive Otto Porter with the ball.
Otto Porter's height of 203 cm was about the same as Xu Tian's, but his weight was quite different. This made him unable to carry Xu Tian in confrontation, and was squeezed out of his position during the march.
Nene wanted to be a crab eater that no player has ever blocked Xu Tian, ran out of the penalty area, and took off unexpectedly.
Xu Tian has a wide vision, and he has noticed Nene long ago, hitting the ground and passing the ball to the penalty area.
Josh Smith catches the ball, takes advantage of Gortat being blocked by Tyson Chandler, jumps in place, and dunks with his right hand!
11-4!
Barkley said: "Before the start of the game, I thought that the two sides would have a fierce first quarter, but I want to say now that I overestimated the Wizards a bit."
Wall received the serve, eager to break the scoring drought, and dribbled the ball to the penalty area.
Xu Tian, George, Tyson Chandler and Josh Smith flanked Wall, blocking Wall in the middle, leaving him no room for maneuver.
Scott Brooks reacted quickly and wanted to call a timeout, but Xu Tian didn't give him this chance.
Wall and Xu Tian hugged the ball at the same time, and neither of them would let go. Just when Wall was a little timid, the referee blew his whistle and sentenced both sides to fight for the ball.
Scott Brooks once again put pressure on the referee, thinking that he called a timeout before going first, and this unfair situation should be avoided from happening again.
