In terms of tactics, the Lakers use an enhanced version of the pick-and-roll tactics, which the Jazz can't compare to.
Now when it comes to stardom, the Jazz may not be able to compare.
You can even be more confident, not as a possibility, but as a certainty.
The two evils are not Stockton and Malone, but Deron and Boozer. In front of Kobe, they are nothing.
Deron can't use eating and sleeping to beat Paul to improve his strength. His reputation is fine, but it is of no use against the Lakers.
Boozer can't use the Rockets to restrain Yao Ming.
Deron and Boozer, their fame comes more from their opponents. Without the pick-and-roll system, they would only be at the level of All-Stars.
How to compare with Kobe, who is at his peak?
Next, Kobe almost took over the offense on the court. Kirilenko, a 6-sided player, looked like nothing in front of Kobe, who was full of firepower.
"Kobe feinted another three-pointer, and Kirilenko got close to him, trying to find a physical confrontation.
Kobe Bryant collected the ball and then broke through, while Kirilenko fought and retreated.
Kobe swayed his back, turned around, pulled the ball up, raised his hand and shot a two-point fadeaway jumper..."
AK47 is indeed AK47. He has faced off against Kobe not once or twice. He predicted Kobe's offensive method in this round and jumped up with Kobe at the same time.
With a height of 2.06 meters, coupled with top wingspan and excellent jumping, Kobe not only uses his ability to stay in the air and waits for Kirilenko to fall down before shooting, but even if he falls down, he can still use his own body in the half-shot space. Talent is obscured.
Kobe is afraid of this kind of Spider-Man with top physical talent. Do you know that Kobe has no talent?
With no choice, Kobe threw the basketball out in the air, relying on the feeling when he took off. The basketball just flew past Kirilenko's fingers and drew a high arc in the air.
Then, pass through the basket.
Swish——!
Did you agree to convert the four-legged into a triathlon? The promised shot is picturesque?
Kobe, what you got is a script that allows you to shoot accurately and online. What's the big deal?
When the hand rises and the knife falls, there are two points.
Immediately afterwards, Kobe, who was shooting, used the triple threat posture to the fullest. If Kobe found a flaw, Kirilenko's defense would suffer a fierce blow.
A pull-up jump shot, a false shot, a dunk when he gets to the basket, a pull-up jumper, a dunk, a pull-up shot...
Kobe, who has shooting skills, is omnipotent and uses his offensive skills to perfection. What can you use to top it?
Don't ask, just ask about pick-and-roll tactics.
The Jazz are nothing but pick-and-rolls.
Not to mention, the pick-and-roll tactic is simple. The Jazz have been immersed in this tactic for too long.
I know all the tricks inside, especially the Jazz who don’t practice anything else. They have been practicing this tactic for ten or twenty years. How many decades do you have in your life?
It's like a swordsman who only practices one move in ten or twenty years. Such a sword is no longer a sword.
The reason is the same. Although the Jazz's pick-and-roll is simple, the offensive power is also top-notch.
After the first quarter, the score was 31 to 25, and the Lakers took a 6-point lead.
Kobe made 5 of 7 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 15 points, 2 assists, and 2 rebounds in a single quarter. While dominating the offensive end, he complemented the triangle offensive tactics. What can you use to top it?
Utah was a double disaster. Deron was 2-for-3 and Boozer was 3-for-5, which looked good. However, the rest of the Jazz didn't contribute much, so there was no way they were falling behind.
In the second quarter, Jackson added more burdens to Gasol and continued to play. After all, the Jazz had two All-Star-level insiders.
The other four are all rotations, Turiaf, Walton, Vujacic, and Farmar.
For the Jazz, Deron and Okur continued to stay on the court.
The rotation sent Millsap, Korver and Matt Halprin. Just looking at the lineup, the Jazz have the advantage.
The second quarter started with the Lakers attacking the ball.
"Farmar dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, passed the ball to Walton, then cut into the paint, used Gasol's screen, shook off Deron, took over the pass, and jumped from the basket.
Snapped--!
As a short inside man, Millsap reacted quickly and blocked Farmar's layup.
It’s not over yet, the rebound still belongs to the Lakers, Farmar regained the basketball and continued to hit the back door..."
Bang-dang——!
Farmar shot and grabbed the ball, dunked twice and put the basketball into the basket.
The gap between the two sides has reached 8 points!
"Gasol's pivot role is too obvious. His joining allows the Lakers' rotation to play a smooth triangle offense.
Moreover, Gasol's support and organization style of play does not consume too much physical energy.
With Gasol on the ball, the Jazz's defense can't stand it! "
"Next, the Jazz's offense, Deron and Okur played a pick-and-roll tactic.
The Lakers still left the wings open to help defend Deron. Okur was in average shape in the first quarter and was not afraid of his mid-range shot.
Deron didn't force the ball and passed the ball with his back to the outside..."
Korver caught the ball, jumped up, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper.
Bang-dang——!
The iron is struck.
The opportunity came up, but Korver's three-pointer was useless.
In the 06/07 season, Korver's three-point shooting percentage was 43%, and he was a top marksman. With this hit, even if the defense was poor, the 76ers could still tolerate him.
However, when your three-point shooting rate reaches 43%, as long as the opponent is not a fool, he will not let it go easily, and will even use his body to defend against it. Korver has been lost this season. The point shooting rate dropped to 35%, entering a low ebb.
"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains and Winds"
For Korver, he hit a wall.
It cannot be said to be similar to the rookie wall, it can only be said to be exactly the same.
You must know that the three-point shooting of the 76ers' head coach Yin Guodala is terrible.
If Korver's three-pointer doesn't work, what's the use of keeping it?
Hence, the trade that brought Korver to the Jazz.
When he came to the Jazz, Korver also struggled with his three-pointers.
If he changes to a different vest, Korver will still be recognized, and defensive targeting is also indispensable.
"Okur pulled out from the outside and the rebound was easily protected by the Lakers.
The Lakers' offense was still a triangle offensive tactic. Farmar's sudden cut was followed, and Vujacic's air cut went to the basket and the score was 2+1..."
Under the triangle offensive system, although the Lakers rotate a lot, their offensive firepower remains undiminished.
Facing the Lakers' shrinking zone defense, the Jazz struggled offensively.
This is the price of being famous!
Whether it is Deron and Okur, or Deron and Boozer, the internal and external combination is the core of the Jazz's offense. The opponent can never go wrong if they focus and fully block their offensive space.
As a result, the Jazz had an opportunity on the wing, but Korver missed a three-pointer, Matt Halprin missed a two-pointer, and Millsap's strong attack simply missed...
By the way, in the first quarter of the game, Deron restrained himself offensively due to Sloan's suppression.
He also knows that when the Lakers have Kobe, no matter how strong his personal offense is, Deron has no advantage in front of Kobe. The Jazz's only chance to win is to play more offensive offense.
However, he did not expect that his teammates would be so ineffective and attack continuously.
In the second quarter of the game, more than 3 minutes passed, and the Jazz's scoring account was still not able to score, which was too embarrassing.
Unable to bear it anymore, Delong tried to do it by himself. As a result, he would die if he tried.
“Deron’s three-point shot was very decisive.
Bang-dang——!
The iron is struck. "
…
"Deron made an emergency stop for two points after the pick-and-roll, and there was a bang. It was still a strike."
…
"Sloan replaces Boozer, maybe Deron will shoot the iron, just because there is one less fool..., no, it is a devil.
In the Jazz's offense, Deron and Boozer once again used pick-and-roll tactics.
Deron missed the shot, passed the ball to Boozer, and made a two-point jumper...
There was a clang, and the iron was struck.
Teammates and teammates are not good enough, and Shuangsha's attack has no food left! "
…
Deron made 1 of 7 shots.
Boozer went 0 for 3 from the field.
Okur went 2-for-5 from the field.
Halprin went 1-for-3 from the field.
The only reliable one was Kirilenko who made 2 of 3 shots.
No matter how strong the Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics are, they are still challenging a truth.
That is, the closer to the basket, the higher the hit rate.
The Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics are nothing more than Boozer and Okur. These two evacuation centers pull out to cover Deron. Then, Deron gets rid of the opponent's point guard and can attack in misplaced positions or pass the ball. The ball is given to teammates for misplaced offense.
No matter what the Jazz choose, as long as the Lakers shrink, their offense will become mid-range shots away from the rebound.
In the end, the Jazz are betting on whether there are bullets in the mid-range shooting pistol.
"Do you think it's possible that Jackson has seen through the Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics?
When his team encounters the Jazz, they like to use players with long arms and legs to shrink and block the offensive space, forcing the Jazz to shoot from the outside.
The Lakers' triangle offensive tactic weakens the role of the point guard in the pick-and-roll system, allowing low-post insiders to support the organization, shortening the offensive distance of the pick-and-roll tactic to the basket.
One shoots away from the basket, and the other shoots close to the basket. It's no wonder that the Lakers won more than they lost against the Jazz.
Moreover, this is the result when the Jazz have the home court of the Plateau Devils. Without the home court of the Plateau Devils, the Jazz will probably be even more miserable.
In other words, it is not unreasonable for the Lakers to restrain the Jazz.
Just in terms of tactical layout, the Lakers' layout has opened up, and the Jazz's layout..."
You also have to practice your outside shooting accurately.
In addition to the tactical advantage, the Lakers also have a super star like Kobe. In the second quarter, Kobe made 2 of 2 shots and 5 of 5 free throws. He scored 9 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist. It was very damaging and too efficient. Taller.
Subei came on the court 7 minutes into the second quarter and only made one 3-pointer.
It's not a high score, it's not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting.
Counting only Su Bei's three-pointers, he scored 3 points on 1-for-1 shooting.
The Jazz made only 1 of 7 three-pointers and scored 3 points.
That's it, offensive efficiency, what can you use to top it?
In the second quarter of the game, the Lakers' rotation unexpectedly broke out, and even though the cards were at a disadvantage, they beat the Jazz with a 33-17 shockwave.
At the end of the first half, with the performance of the Jazz in the second quarter, the score was 64 to 42. The Lakers took a 22-point lead, almost establishing the winning score, and took a locker room rest.
