“The Lakers copied what the Mavericks did at the beginning, and they did it very effectively, almost leaving the Mavericks with nowhere to go.
Next, in the Lakers' offense, Fisher controlled the court well and handed the basketball to Kobe after halftime.
Now that the Lakers are blooming more, it will open up the situation, but what about the superstar battle?
Do you need to weigh it?
You can't have a supporting role steal the show while the protagonist stretches your hips, right?
Kobe also knew Fisher's thoughts and the pattern of the game. He took the move, and after the triple threat took a step, he passed the ball to Artest.
Unexpectedly, Artest didn't play. Artest got reckless with the ball. Su Bei could only fight and retreat. Kidd helped defend and also pounced.
Artest had people hanging on him, and he chose to pass the ball while moving. Kobe caught the ball while cutting, jumped up, raised his hand, and shot a two-point jumper..."
Kobe plays off the ball and plays as a catch-and-shoot shooter. This change of pace makes Marion very unsuitable.
I used to like the 96 style, but now I suddenly switch to the 69 style. Who can stand it?
This can't keep up with the rhythm!
It doesn’t take an experienced driver to know how to pat the butt and know what the other person is thinking.
That's all, it still needs to be adjusted.
It takes time to see people’s hearts!
Kobe suddenly changed his position, and Marion was shot before he could follow. He could only gamble on Kobe's shot and just hang around outside.
Swish——!
"Kobe finally got his act together.
The Lakers' technique and tactics of catching and shooting without the ball are very thoughtful, and they are all styles of play that the Mavericks could not predict in advance.
This is the experience of the Lakers playing in the playoffs, and this is something that the Mavericks cannot compare with.
It’s not surprising that the Mavericks will be unable to withstand it and fall behind..."
Kobe also scored, the score was 4 to 8! !
At the beginning of the game, the Lakers' offense was still strong.
The Mavericks are not panicking. We are not afraid of the offensive rhythm. We don’t know how to defend, and neither can the Lakers.
"It's still about taking Fisher, Kidd continued to play music, and then ordered Fisher to be singled out.
The physical talents are so different, even though both of them are old, but they are not old yet.
Fisher is just a role player, but Kidd is a superstar. Now that both parties are old, they still give points when they meet.
With the wings on both sides being restrained, Bynum could only help defend under the basket, leaving Chandler free to shoot.
Kidd turned over Chandler's card before Bynum's help defense was in place.
At this time, Chandler caught the ball and only the basket was left in front of him..."
Bang-dang——!
A two-handed slam dunk, an alley-oop, Chandler's whole body hanging on the basket to score two points.
6 to 8! !
"Kidd is too evil. It's easy to deal with the old fish, but don't take it too easy.
The Lakers' defense on both wings is stretched, and if they try to save from the inside, they will only fall into a situation where they care about one thing and lose the other.
However, this is the basic operation of the Lakers.
The No. 1 position is always a pain for the Lakers. Such scenes of defense being broken are too common, and the Lakers are probably used to it..."
Not even a possibility, but a certainty.
As long as the opponent is clear and not blind, he will always choose to break the game from the 1st position against the elite Lakers.
The Lakers' winning formula is basically to beat Fisher on offense and beat Kobe on defense.
The Mavericks have continued to make fuss about Fisher and have reached the first step in the process of winning.
The remaining step is to be beaten defensively by Kobe.
I have never seen such a request!
“The Mavericks strengthened their defense on their opponents, and the Lakers obviously anticipated the Mavericks’ defensive strategy.
It was Artest who took the ball to attack..."
Maybe it's not just Artest, it can only be said that Artest is the main attacker.
First, Fisher made an air cut and played a screen with Gasol. After being broken by the Mavericks, Artest continued to cut inside. With the help of Gasol's screen, he got rid of Su Bei's defense and received Gasol's pass. You pass the ball from hand to hand and can immediately face the basket.
"Marion chose to help defend, Artest did not waver or get too hot-headed, and continued to choose to distribute the ball.
Kobe cut to the basket, he was empty, and the Mavericks' defense was gone..."
Bang-dang——!
Let Kobe be free, cut in, and even catch the basketball, what can you do to counter it?
In such a situation, the only option is to give out points.
“Kobe’s scoring style is scoring without the ball.
The Mavericks' defensive attention was wrong. They wanted Kobe to take more shots and attack more, which lowered the Lakers' offensive efficiency.
I never thought that the Lakers could still play like this, with Artest playing the point forward and Kobe Bryant the off-ball shooter..."
This is not the situation the Mavericks want.
Indeed, the winning formula against the Lakers is to beat Fisher offensively and be beaten defensively by Kobe.
But I didn’t say, let Kobe play efficient off-ball output?
If Kobe doesn't dribble the ball and doesn't destroy the Lakers' team offense, what can he do to win?
The equation is correct, but the process is off the mark.
Kobe plays without the ball, how does he do it?
Especially when Artest organized and distributed the ball, these two things happened together. This is outrageous and unscientific!
Kobe has won championships for several years, and his style of play has become more and more leadership-like. This is accepted.
But, it's impossible with Artest, absolutely impossible!
Could it be that Artest's tactics changed after two years of playing in Princeton?
Being suppressed by the Lakers with the pace of the game and falling behind in the game, the Mavericks could only hold on and let the bullets fly for a while longer.
Hong Kong, the Lakers' offense has improved, leaving the Mavericks confused.
But fortunately, the Mavericks also have unique skills that the Lakers can't solve.
Don't ask, just ask for a jump shot!
"Kidd took the ball to the top of the arc and looked at it.
Su Bei made a three-pointer from the right corner and cut into the basket, relying on the double screen of Chandler and Marion.
Finally, Artest was able to get rid of his guard. Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right, Su Bei was empty, and Kidd passed the basketball in his hand..."
Kobe chose to switch defense, but it was still too late.
After all, he was following Marion. He saw that Artest could not withstand it and Su Bei was empty, so he made a defensive switch. It seemed very positive, but in fact he was acting as a doctor on a dead horse. It's always good for North to apply a little bit of defensive pressure.
It's a pity that Su Bei's gun is very hard.
The entire shooting movement of catching the ball, lifting it up, and shooting the ball was without a trace of excess. It was as smooth as eating Dove chocolate. The basketball drew an arc in the air and accurately passed through the white net.
Swish——!
“Su Bei’s three-pointer went in, and the Mavericks’ three-pointer finally opened the game.
The Lakers had no idea how to switch positions without the ball on the Mavericks' wings.
Tonight, the Lakers copied the work of the Mavericks, and they did a great job, but they still lacked a few things..."
The question is three-point shooting!
Yes, the Lakers' offense scored in the first five offensive rounds, but they were all two-point goals.
Two points, two points, if you want to widen the point difference, it is obviously a little bit difficult.
9 to 10! !
"The Lakers started off very strong, but unexpectedly, they performed like a tiger in one move. When I looked at the score, it was a goal!
Just leading by 1 point is not enough to even feed the cat..."
Not to mention, the Lakers are very calm, leading by one point is also a lead.
It seems that he is also determined to pay attention to the fact that two-pointers can also kill the game.
Just like the golden needle can stab someone to death for the same reason.
Bang-dang——!
The basket was not used to the Lakers, and Fisher's two-point mid-range shot missed.
“The Lakers’ offense was finally seen through.
The Mavericks continued to shrink their defense and defend the zone, forcing the Lakers to stay away from the basket.
If you shoot two points, you have to take action against a tough zone defense. If you shoot three points?
The Mavericks didn't take the Lakers' 3-point shot seriously..."
When the workings of magic are revealed, there is no more magic!
Artest cannot be Su Bei's substitute and cannot create space on the three-point line.
As for Kobe, he did have Jordan's fate, but he also got Jordan's disease, which was that his three-point shooting stretched his hips.
Fisher's three-pointer is also dispensable. The key three-pointer is a drop in the bucket for the normal cost.
Perhaps, everyone understands that Fisher's three-pointers, let alone on time or inaccurate, even if they are accurate, they will not think that he has the ability to kill the game.
You can't let the Lakers' interior twin towers shoot three-pointers, right?
The Lakers' starting five have no shooting range, and even the bench lineup doesn't have a strong man who can shoot three-pointers.
With this lineup, in the 10/11 season, he actually spent nearly 100 million in salary. It was so sharp. How did he do it?
After all, the Lakers money paid for their previous honors and friendship, but it messed up the balance of the lineup...
This is also two years in a row, which is also the ridiculous thing about the dynasty.
Because it is too difficult to win three years in a row.
Bang-dang——!
After Fisher hit the ball, Artest also tried a two-point shot, which also hit the ball.
Gasol didn't believe this evil, so he also tried a mid-range shot...
Bang-dang——!
"The Lakers' more blossoming is wasted.
As long as the Mavericks are harvesting and being a tortoise, with the Lakers' shooting range and stability, they simply can't kill the Mavericks..."
Hong Kong, the Mavericks' main jump shot battle has reached a minimum of 70 points. The Lakers want to rely on 30-point three-pointers and 50-50 two-pointers to kill the Mavericks. It is simply a difficult problem. It is too difficult. They won't!
"If you can't copy the work of more flowers, the Lakers immediately changed their way of life and handed the damn basketball to Kobe..."
This is exactly what the Mavericks want, creating a winning formula.
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
…
If Kobe defeats the Mavericks' defense, he will gain personal data and lose the team game. Now Kobe is still playing the "four-up, three-iron" model. What can you use to top it?
You can't stand it.
“The Lakers started the game very hard offensively, but unexpectedly did not last long.
In less than two shots, they could only be soft and dawdle on the outside. On the contrary, the Mavericks' jump shot battle was still strong. It was not only hard, but also long enough..."
The two points were solid, the three points were equally good, and the rhythm of the game gradually shifted towards the Mavericks.
After the first quarter, the score was 28 to 20. The Mavericks took an 8-point lead in the protracted offensive battle.
In the first quarter of the game, the Lakers made 0 of 4 three-pointers and didn't make any mistakes.
The Mavericks made 4 of 7 three-pointers, which was completely different.
Although the Lakers played tougher and caused a lot of damage when rushing to the basket and got 9 free throws, the Mavericks played too soft and didn't even get a single free throw.
However, if it doesn't last long, there is no saying whether it is hard or not. The Lakers are not unjust for falling behind.
