Chapter 160 Nash's Ghostly Magic Skill
With Griffin missing the buzzer, the first quarter came to an end.
24:30
The Lakers, who played at home, took a six-point lead.
During the intermission, Clippers coach Vinnie DeNagello frowned.
He was holding a tactical board in his hand, but he didn't start writing for a long time.
Throughout the first quarter, even though they didn't fall behind too much, they even played back and forth with the Lakers at some points.
But I always feel that something is not right, it seems that I have been playing with the rhythm of the Lakers.
In the game, once you enter the opponent's rhythm, you will inevitably be restricted.
After pondering for a long time, Denagro did not come up with a good countermeasure.
The problem they encountered was similar to that of the Grizzlies, they couldn't strangle Kobe and Qin Xiao at the same time.
As long as one of these two cannot be restricted, the Clippers will definitely pay the price!
How to defend has become the biggest problem for the Clippers.
"Pooh, I don't think we need to think too much about the defensive end. At present, shrinking the defense must be the best way, let them shoot as much as possible in the middle and long distances!"
"Qin's shooting is more accurate than Kobe's. To limit him, we always take double-teams!"
"With Kobe, don't let him drive too deep, keep him away from the basket."
"If he forces long shots, then let him shoot. His shooting percentage is not that high."
Chris Paul said suddenly.
Brother Pao has very rich game experience, and he thinks this is the best way to deal with the Lakers.
If Kobe shoots right tonight, he'll have to accept his fate.
"what do y'all think?"
De Nagro asks for other people's opinions.
Griffin immediately said: "I agree with Chris' proposal."
Seeing that Griffin agrees, of course other players will not object. This point of vision is still there.
De Nagro nodded: "In this case, let's do what Chris said, but on the offensive end, we still need to play more carefully."
"Chris, you must find a way to drive the offense of the whole team in a while, and everyone is also actively moving to cooperate with Chris' scheduling."
De Nagro now pins all his hopes on Paul.
However, this also reflects his lack of ability as a head coach.
On the other side, the Lakers are on the bench.
"The beginning of the second quarter is the key to the game. If we can play well during this period, we can open up some points."
"Strive for a double-digit lead at the end of the first half."
"Steve, the organization of this period will be handed over to you."
"Qin, you have to work hard too, and bear the responsibility of the main scoring points!"
Mustache is orderly arranging the game at the beginning of the second quarter.
"Don't worry Mike, it won't be easy for them with me and Steve around."
Qin Xiao looked full of confidence, and he did have the capital of self-confidence, after all, his strength lay there.
"Don't forget, there's me too!"
Artest on the side couldn't help interjecting, as if afraid of being forgotten by others.
Soon, the intermission ended and the second quarter began.
The Lakers launched the first offense of this quarter. Nash held the ball in the backcourt and advanced unhurriedly.
When he came to the frontcourt, he immediately turned into the court commander and instructed his teammates to move.
Even Qin Xiao had to listen to him. Under Nash's ghostly organization skills, the Lakers' running positions were simply dazzling.
Qin Xiao wanted to intersperse among the crowd. He first bypassed Artest's body and blocked the pursuers behind him.
Immediately afterwards, he cut towards the penalty area, and Artest retreated to the outside line, continuing to attract defense.
Just when everyone thought that Nash was going to pass the ball to Qin Xiao who was cutting in, he suddenly threw the ball to Antawn Jamison who was standing in the corner.
At this time, there was no one in front of Jamison, and he shot decisively after receiving the ball.
"Shh!"
The wonderful sound of entering the net sounded, and a three-pointer was hit hollow from the bottom corner.
Seeing this, the fans on the scene immediately shouted.
"Steve is worthy of being the number one point guard in the league. This kind of organizational ability is simply ghostly magic!"
"It turns out that all the running positions before were to clear the way for Antoine, and even Qin became a pawn to attract the opponent's attention!"
In the commentary seat, Kenny Smith couldn't help sighing.
Qin Xiao looked at the three-pointer added to the scorer, and was also a little confused.
Even he didn't know how Nash did it. He just ran according to Nash's command. As for who Nash wanted to pass the ball to, Qin Xiao really didn't know.
In this attack just now, Qin Xiao was even ready to cut into the alley dunk!
Unexpectedly, Nash did not play cards according to common sense.
Jamison, who made a three-pointer, didn't know how he got such a big open.
In the next round, Nash continued to exert his magical organizational ability.
After a seemingly chaotic movement, Earl Clark at the basket successfully ate the pie!
"Why do I feel that the offense of the Lakers' second lineup is smoother than that of the starting lineup? It's not my illusion, is it?"
"This is not an illusion. I also have the same feeling. The main reason is that Steve's organization is too good. He can always have some unconstrained ideas."
"Looking at it this way, the effect of putting Steve in the second team is really good!"
"Moustache's coaching ability has obviously improved a lot, and he knows how to allocate players reasonably."
Fans are constantly discussing the situation on the field.
As everyone knows, they don't know that this is not D'Antoni's strength, but Nash's own proposal.
On the sidelines, Mustache watched the team's offense being sorted out so smoothly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Even Kobe, who was sitting on the bench, saw his eyes light up.
Earlier, Nash did not seem to have such an effect in the starting list.
If you think about it carefully, it is probably because the Lakers starters are too offensively capable.
Both he and Qin Xiao belong to the kind of players who are invincible with the ball in their hands, and Gasol and Warcraft on the inside are not bad.
This doesn't require too many moves at all, just play singles directly.
But the second lineup is different. It is far from the star ability of the starting lineup, so it reflects the importance of tactics!
It is definitely a wise move to let Steve Nash lead!
In the next 2 minutes, under Nash's organization and series connection, the Lakers played vigorously offensively.
On the other hand, the Clippers' defense was a little flustered, with frequent omissions.
Head coach De Nagro frowned even tighter. Originally, he thought that with Griffin leading the second team, he would not be overwhelmed by the opponent.
But now he realizes that he was wrong, this is simply being hanged!
They relied on Griffin's personal ability to forcefully score a few goals.
Even so, the point difference was stretched to thirteen points!
