Chapter 161: The 'reverse boy'
May 4, 2008 local time.
After inviting Taylor, he also made some preparations.
Take Taylor to the Staples Center in advance and arrange for Yi Jianlian to take care of Taylor.
Yi Jianlian quickly agreed that he had met Taylor last year, so he was quite familiar with him.
After the arrangement is made, go to the locker room and meet with your teammates.
The Lakers' tickets are hard to come by in the playoffs. After the last round of the season, his tickets were all divided by his teammates, leaving only one for Yi Jianlian.
For warm-ups before the game, many fans have entered the field one after another to watch the players’ pre-game warm-up training.
Listening to the cheers of the fans, the young Lakers players started dunk mode.
Vujasic's folding dunk followed by Famal's dunk.
One wonderful dunk after another, and the cheers of the fans were wave after wave.
The stadium was ignited by explosive dunks.
After Kobe's tomahawk buckle, Stups reached orgasm.
After the warm-up training, Phil gave everyone chicken soup, "The Jazz is nothing scary. We played 3:1 in the regular season, and we had an absolute advantage. We just need to play normally."
What should be arranged has been arranged before the game, so there is no need to arrange it again before entering the court.
"Come on, come on, come on. Lakers, Lakers." Everyone shouted a few times and walked out of the locker room.
As we walked through the player passage, many fans began to cheer and shouted the players' names.
"Hello everyone, I am Zhang Weiping. Today, Yu Jia and I will broadcast the game live." Zhang Weiping said.
"I will first introduce the starters of the two teams. The Lakers starters: Kobe, Gasol, Odom, Fisher, the ski man, Chinese player Li Tian still comes on the bench; Jazz starters: Oku, Boozer,
Delong, Brewer, Kirirenko. Coach Zhang will introduce the starters of the two teams." Yu Jia looked at Zhang Weiping.
"I won't introduce the starting lineup of the Lakers. I've been broadcasting many live Lakers games recently. I think everyone is familiar with it. The five starting lineups of the Jazz, three of whom are All-Star substitutes, can be said to be full of star flavor. In the last round, the Jazz team started with five players, three of them are All-Star substitutes.
In the series, all five starters performed well." Zhang Weiping introduced the Jazz starters one by one.
"Guide Zhang, the Jazz's lineup looks stronger. Does that mean it will be very difficult for the Lakers to win this game?" Yu Jia asked softly.
"Hahaha, don't worry, although the Lakers don't have many All-Stars, their strength cannot be underestimated. The Lakers have an advantage. The record of the two teams in the regular season is 1:3, and the Jazz only wins one game." Another long list
Introduction.
"Hahaha, that's true. In addition to Chinese player Li Tian, he has accurate three-pointers, unsolvable running without the ball, fantastic basket steps, and headache-inducing single defense ability.
Why did the Lakers not arrange Li Tian as the starting lineup?" Yu Jia asked.
Fans also began to ask Director Zhang: "Ask Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang, why did he not give him a starting chance?"
"Haha, let me answer for you. There are several reasons why it is still on the bench. First: I haven't been working with the team for a long time, and the chemical effect is not very good; Second: It is also his first time playing in the playoffs
, has not fully adapted to the intensity of the playoffs; third: in order to leave a stable scoring player for the bench. Mainly because of these reasons, I think Phil will arrange for him to start next season." Coach Zhang patiently explained
.
"Thank you, Director Zhang for your analysis, it's very accurate."
"The game has begun. Everyone should enjoy the game well. If you have any questions, you can leave a message. I will take time to answer them uniformly." Director Zhang said excitedly. He saw Kobe launching an attack with the ball.
The Lakers have been resting for 5 days and their game is not in a state. Although they are raising their energy, they don’t play for a long time and it takes time to adapt.
The Jazz started with a 4:0 win over the Lakers.
Kobe held the ball and launched an attack, passing Odom near the free throw line, making a mid-range shot, opening the first record for the Lakers.
The fans waited until the Lakers scored before sitting down.
Kirilianko missed the iron, and Fisher grabbed the defensive rebound with a long rebound.
Odom attacked, Deron made a foul and received two free throws.
The first free throw was hit, and there was no need to adjust. The second free throw was hit, and Gasol squeezed out Oku and grabbed the offensive rebound.
Assisted Kobe and made a mid-range shot.
The Lakers scored 5 points in a row and overtook the score.
Then both teams made a hit, and the defense intensity of both teams was very high, completely different from the previous round against the Nuggets.
After 6 minutes of action, Gasol got his second foul. In order to protect Gasol, he originally planned to arrange Li Tian to replace the ski man. He was disrupted by Gasol's two fouls and had to rush Gasol.
Replace the fate.
Gasol came over to high-fives and cheered for Li Tian. He didn't forget to touch his head and ran back to the bench with a smile.
"Ski man, you are the center, I will defend Boozer." He said with a smirk. He was not at the advantage of defending the opponent's center, and he was not at the advantage of his height or weight.
Hearing this, the ski man looked bitter and had no choice but to replace Gasol and come to the center position.
I glanced at Boozer with a squinted eye. It was indeed quite scary, but it was not enough to make people vomit and would not affect my defense. I whispered.
"Bozer has no outside line, he just needs to defend at the basket, make rebounds and compete." Kobe stepped forward and whispered.
"No problem, I'll give it to me." He responded confidently. Although he has been playing on the outside, his height is always an inside player. This is not the future small ball era, the player position is vague, and the player position is still very clear now.
Fisher held the ball and sorted out the Lakers' offense.
Boozer frowned and glanced at Li Tian. He didn't care about this rookie, but ignored it more.
He is the All-Star substitute this year, and the other party is just a rookie and is not worthy of his attention at all.
Sloan, who was off the court, saw Boozer's underestimation of the enemy, was in trouble again, and couldn't help but shout loudly, gestured to defend.
Boozer pretended not to see and ignored Sloan's gestures.
Fisher signaled Li Tian to play tactics and knew how to start the off-ball running position.
With the help of Odom's pick-and-roll, Boozer, who was strolling and chasing, was blocking behind him.
Boozer didn't believe that Li Tian was as accurate as the coach said before the game, and did not squeeze through. Instead, he turned around and put Odomka behind him, preparing to compete for rebounds.
There was no player chasing the defender, and the pass from Fisher was received in the open space, and the knife fell and the three-pointer was taken.
Without chasing and not making up for defense, this is simply a three-point shooting training, extremely easy.
"Haha, the Jazz actually let Li Tian go. Don't they know his hit rate?" Yu Jia said in confusion.
"Three points are in, let's congratulate him. It's not intentional relaxation. It should be that Boozer's defense is a little lazy and he has not followed the coach's arrangements." Coach Zhang often sees this situation, which is why some rookies are in the process.
When facing veterans, they can still show explosive performance, most of the reason.
The Lakers led by 5 points with a three-pointer.
Deron passed the ball with the ball and observed his teammates' positions.
I saw Boozer being defended by a rookie and passing the ball over.
"Rookie, don't think you're so powerful that you think you're limiting Anthony. I'll tell you what the NBA is." Boozer said contemptuously.
"Is that?" Ignore Boozer's words.
Boozer, who received the ball, saw that he was ignored by the rookie and stopped talking. He thought in his heart that he must teach this rookie a lesson.
He played singles on his back and arched back with all his strength. He found that the rookie behind him was just a little knocked away by him. He was a little surprised and didn't think much about it.
With the help of footsteps, I wanted to slip into the bottom line, but I was blocked by the defense.
I didn't want to be ridiculed by my teammates, and I couldn't even beat a rookie. I leaned on it for a while and wanted to get stronger.
Just when he was forced to get up, he was killed and did not take off completely. He was tortured by Kobe countless times. This kind of defensive experience is extremely rich.
Boozer, who had no ability to jump and pass, had to take action.
Under interference, the attack became a little short.
Li Tian called for a ski man to grab the rebound, grabbed the rebound, and passed it to Fisher to launch a fast break.
Kobe made a quick break and received the pass. He scored a layup with Delon who had chased him.
Come back to defend, and his teammates come to celebrate with his chest. Kobe is very happy at the moment. Recently, the Lakers played several more fast breaks in each game than before, which makes him easier on the offensive end and does not consume the physical energy he has stored.
.
Boozer was defended by a rookie, regretting his contempt.
"Haha, old bird, that's what you told me about the NBA. I've already experienced this?" Linsheng replied.
Boozer asked for the ball again, and Deron knew that he wanted to regain his face, and he was embarrassed to refuse.
He received instructions from Kobe to let him occasionally put some water on Boozer to lure the Jazz to play Boozer.
Boozer attacked again, pretending not to hold back, and took a step back.
A step back made Boozer even more arrogant, thinking that it was his toughness. This rookie was just a piece of paper and just needed to attack with all his strength.
To be continued...
