Top pitchers are so important for a team!

Many people say that the Heat can achieve such a good record this year is not the introduction of Nene, but Ray Allen. It is not that Nene is not important, but Ray Allen is too important.

In the past, the Heat pitchers were determined to catch the ball, but Ray Allen, he would take the initiative to pull to the far end and judge when he should approach James or Wade who holds the ball and put his defender

Bring it to a space where you can double-team the ball and create more favorable opportunities for yourself.

That's how Kobe is. He doesn't think about anything else but thinks about how to create better scoring opportunities for himself.

The Grizzlies use Klay Thompson to defend Kobe, which is not easy to lose position, but it will also cause another problem, that is, 4-defense 4 is more difficult than 5-defense 5.

But this is already the best defense that the Grizzlies think of. It is better to shoot for other people in the Lakers than to shoot for Kobe, who has the highest shooting efficiency of his career.

After Jordan Hill dunked, the Lakers quickly retreated to defend. Gasol Jr. pulled his teammates to communicate quickly for a quick defense and serve.

The Grizzlies need to slow down. If they play fast-paced offense and defense, the Grizzlies may not have the Lakers to defend well. It’s not that the Grizzlies are not as good as the Lakers to defend well, but the Lakers are better at playing well in offense.

Similar to the Nuggets.

Paul George pushed the ball to the basket and ran into the frontcourt and met Randolph who replaced the defense. It is difficult for Ci Shiping to defend Randolph now. The weight loss has caused his low-post defense to drop a lot. Jordan Xi

Al immediately hit the ball, Randolph passed Gasol Jr., Kobe quickly replaced defense, and Ci Shiping also judged Paul George's running route, and was blocked as soon as possible.

As the playoffs approached, the Lakers also had obvious changes. The defense is better than before the All-Star Weekend, changing defenses faster and oppressive!

Obviously, the Lakers have also entered the playoff mode. Sun Ce went up to receive the pass from Gasol Jr., and the offensive time was only 8 seconds left, so Sun Ce had to come by himself.

Josh Smith's weight of more than 110 kilograms actually has a level of A+ and a level of s-level explosion acceleration. Sun Ce is not good at dealing with such a defensive man with excellent height and arm-span and strong movement ability, but he can only keep his head shut.

Strong bottom line.

When he suddenly reached the middle distance, Sun Ce still didn't think of a solution. He was about to make a strong shot, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and switched the ball to his left hand and pulled the ball from behind. He took a step to the position close to the bottom line and almost received the ball. He stopped quickly.

Turn around!

Josh Smith thought Sun Ce was going to change direction and immediately took a step back. Sun Ce's emergency stop jump shot was not a conventional offensive method. Sun Ce did not have room to move horizontally to the right in this area. Josh Smith's second-level defense awareness

Show it to the fullest.

However, Sun Ce stopped urgently and turned around and jumped!

"Dribbling behind the ball turns and jump shot level 1 (Irving) triggers..."

Although it seemed rushed, the jump was very sufficient. With Josh Smith retreating, Sun Ce focused his attention and turned around and shot a mid-range shot!

That is, Josh Smith didn't post it, otherwise even if Irving dribbles and jump shot behind the back, it would be difficult for Sun Ce to take the ball.

But isn't this a score? That's a good goal!

Seeing Sun Ce retreating from defense, Kobe, who had been paying attention to Sun Ce, his eyes widened. This action... seemed to be one of his fans' iconic singles moves!

He remembered that when the All-Stars practiced dancing together on weekends, his fans came to visit the set and taught Sun Ce this. At that time, Sun Ce practiced like Xiang, and couldn't find a place to get started.

Kobe has studied Sun Ce several games before tonight, but he has never seen Sun Ce use this trick.

It was actually used tonight!

Based on Kobe's understanding of Sun Ce, this guy can learn it as long as he finds the feeling of getting started!

When the Lakers attacked, Paul quickly advanced to the frontcourt. This time, Paul faked pick-and-roll and judged the defensive changes that the Grizzlies had to switch defense and cut off the pass, creating a three-point opportunity for Ci Shiping in the bottom corner.

The opportunity was very good, but he didn't make it, so Sun Ce accepted the defensive rebound.

Sun Ce himself advanced to the frontcourt. Looking at the opponent's defensive formation, Randolph had a strong restraint ability at low posts, giving a better mid-range shot opportunity on the outside, but Randolph was not easy to play at this point, and the Lakers contracted and expanded.

His ability is so outstanding that he is not inferior to the Nuggets.

It is not that easy for Sun Ce to play Josh Smith alone, so Sun Ce finds Klay Thompson to pick-and-roll, and then disassembles Paul and attacks against the defense!

Paul was very stable in the lower set, and Sun Ce failed to accelerate successfully, but he relied on the height advantage to move sideways and jump shot from the right side of the three-second zone... It's a pity that he didn't make it.

Kobe defended the defensive rebound and passed the ball to Paul, and the Lakers attacked.

After arriving at the frontcourt, Kobe directly asked for the ball at the 45-degree angle on the right, without any extra effort. Kobe faced Paul George's defense and shot backwards and three-pointers... In!

5 to 2!

The Lakers take the initiative!

As it turns out, the Grizzlies did not do a very good job in starting tonight. In the next few minutes, the Grizzlies played very hard on offense and defended very hard, but they did not defend well and were also beaten by the Lakers.

Two fast attacks were played.

Tonight, Sun Ce and Klay Thompson connected for a while and scored 6 points in a row, but the Lakers steadily maintained the lead.

At the 6th minute and 44th second in the first quarter, the Grizzlies were 15-19 and called a timeout and entered the official timeout stage.

Paul George was replaced by Tony Allen in the third minute, but the Lakers' offense has already begun. Facing this team with the highest scoring score in the league, it is really difficult for them to play after they start.

Entering the official timeout, Coach Hollins already knows that there is a problem with the change of the formation he wants. If he steadily tries to defend like the previous two matches, although he can't score 15 points in the half quarter, the Lakers are also

I definitely can't get as many as 19 points.

Coach Hollins just wants to try and see if he changes his starting style after entering the playoffs and finds a more relaxed way to deal with the Lakers.

Obviously, the array change failed.

Isn’t it just for the game at the end of the regular season when the record is not stressful?

But tonight's game will be difficult, and the Lakers' offense has already made a sense!

Although there is no record pressure, if you can sweep the Lakers in the regular season, you will obviously have a greater psychological advantage when you meet the Lakers in the second round or the Western Conference Finals.

How to solve the current problem now? Coach Hollins patted Sun Ce on the shoulder.

Sun Ce also felt ache in this unreliable attempt to change the formation. After being patted on his shoulder, Sun Ce nodded when he saw Coach Hollins' inquiring eyes.
Chapter completed!
