066: Perfect performance, perfect debut(1/5)

Shay's beautiful counterattack dispelled the fans' doubts right away.

At first, everyone was worried that Shay wouldn't be able to stand the competition in the NBA regular season.

But it turned out that it was the NBA that couldn't stand Shay's confrontation!

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop Shay. This made Booker Johnson, who had played in the NBA for five years, lose his confidence.

Lakers fans were cheering for joy, and celebrities such as Jack Nicholson on the sidelines also stood up and applauded Shay's first NBA score.

It's a small step for Shai, but a giant step toward recreating the Lakers' performance moment!

Shay high-fived AC Green and Sam Perkins.

Without their excellent defense, there would be no chance of counterattack.

In the private room, Jerry West also nodded with satisfaction.

After confirming the starting lineup, the team still played well.

In the previous five preseason games, everyone is still getting used to this offensive and defensive rhythm.

But after five games, everyone is at least relatively familiar with this tactic of pressing, defending and counterattacking.

In fact, replicating Lakers performance moments is not an impossible task.

Because in Riley’s original history, he actually did this in 2011.

That's right, the Heat team with the Big Three is actually Riley's re-enactment of the Lakers in the 1980s!

Although there are some differences, the core tactic of that Heat team is to press the defense and counterattack endlessly.

You won't believe it if you tell me that Riley didn't give Spoelstra any clues.

So, with the right players and tactics, reviving Showtime is not just talk.

In the first round today, the Lakers played a little bit off.

Shea stood on the free throw line amid the cheers of the crowd. This was the first time that the Great Western Forum witnessed the charm of holding a urinal.

Jack Nicholson on the sidelines was speechless. Shay's contrast was even worse than the contrast chart.

The counterattack is so cool, but the free throws are so ugly!

Old Basdu smiled bitterly and shook his head. Shay's free throw action must be changed.

How could something so ugly be allowed to exist at the Great Western Forum!

It was ugly as hell, but Shea's extra penalty was still a solid hit.

3-0, Shea gave the Rockets a powerful start.

Olajuwon was very distressed. AC Green's double-team just came too quickly.

You kid has been abstinent for so many years just to catch men!?

You are so perverted!

However, after what he had just experienced, Olajuwon also took it a step further.

If Olajuwon can be locked up with just a pressing attack, that would be too disrespectful to the first of the four major centers to win the championship.

In this offense, the Rockets are still waiting for Olajuwon to get into position.

Kenny continued to feed the ball to Dameng. After receiving the ball, Dameng was just about to make a move when he was flanked by AC Green again.

Rockets coach Don Cheney raised his arms at the referee and accused Green of illegal defense.

But the referee ignored it. Green's timing of double-teaming was perfectly mastered, and there was no suspicion of illegal defense.

In fact, illegal defense is just like a foul, and each referee has different standards.

Some inexperienced referees are tighter, while experienced referees are looser.

That's why Chuck Daly's defensive system wanders in the gray area.

Facing a flanking attack again, Dameng did not act hastily like in the previous round.

I saw him being flanked by two people and calmly passing the ball between the arms of Divac and Green!

The moment the ball passed into the penalty area, Otis Thorpe also rushed in, received the basketball and dunked directly with one hand!

Olajuwon's passing ability is also very strong.

Working in the low post to support teammates, breaking double teams, and quickly counterattacking with a pass after grabbing a rebound, these are all Dameng's specialties.

Dameng often chooses the timing of handling the ball very well. When he attracts defense in the low post, he releases the ball early and quickly.

The first moment the opponent double-teams him, he can quickly find his teammates who are in the open space.

Why do people always think that Olajuwon's low-post skills are better than Shaq's? In fact, just in terms of the few twitches in the paint, Shaq's back-up skills are also top-notch, although the posture is not very good-looking.

But the reason why Olajuwon gives people the impression that he has better skills is because he has range and passing ability compared to the Sharks.

Shay couldn't help feeling that Olajuwon was indeed a more comprehensive existence than Captain Orangutan and Admiral.

The gorilla captain's passing ability when faced with double teams is hard to describe.

I thought before, double-teaming by Shea and Mourning could force the Orangutan captain to make mistakes.

Olajuwon also smiled after assisting. This successful goal not only allowed the team to recover 2 points, but also killed the Lakers' fast break opportunity.

There are no irons or mistakes, but I want to see how you fast break... Hey, wait, don't run!

Olajuwon hadn't been proud for long when he saw AC. Green serve a quick baseline ball, and then Shay ran across half court in a flash!

Olajuwon is convinced. Green, you are so fast at everything you do!

That is, generally men who have not experienced the first time are faster~

After delivering a quick baseline ball, not only Shay ran fast, but the entire Lakers team immediately ran forward.

Dell Curry went to the bottom corner and Sam Perkins cut in from the other side.

Although Divac doesn't run fast, he is still trying to keep up with the rhythm.

Booker Johnson tried to force Shea to stop, but Shea used a behind-the-back dribble to easily pass him at high speed!

Seeing Booker being broken through, the Rockets' defenders had to shrink the center and block Shay.

Shay made a diagonal pass and passed the ball to Dell Curry who was already ambushing in the right corner.

Dell Curry is different from his good-for-nothing son. His explosive power is very strong, so his ability to accelerate instantly is also very strong.

This kind of shooting guard is perfect for following Shay.

Jerry West decided to use him to replace Byron Scott because of his explosive power and accurate three-point shooting.

Dell Curry shot a three-pointer without being defended. As soon as Olajuwon returned to his own three-point line, he saw that the Lakers had already scored!

Although the old Curry does not have his son's epoch-making three-point ability, he is still very accurate in fixed-point shooting.

If Shea remembers correctly, starting from this season in original history, Dell Curry will shoot over 40% from three-point range for eight consecutive seasons!

Therefore, it is easy for the old Curry to shoot an open three-pointer during a counterattack.

"Another quick counterattack, this time although the Rockets successfully scored, Shay still pushed the rhythm!

His dribbling ability is great. Although he is 2.06 meters tall, he is like a primary school student when passing Booker.

The overall situation was also excellent, and he found Curry ambushing in the bottom corner with precision and timing.

In these two attacks, Shea handled them just right, allowing the team to play smoothly.

Now, I believe what Magic said. The Lakers in the regular season and the Lakers in the preseason are really different!"

Seeing Shay pushing two attacks so easily, Marvin Albert, who was commentating on the game, also looked at Gudica beside him with a smirk:

"What? Now you still think Shay can't score in double digits in his debut?"

Gudika actually regretted saying this, but he couldn't help but admit that he was wrong.

So he continued to be tough:

"The game has just begun, and Shay has only scored 3 points!"

The speed of Shea's counterattack shocked Rockets coach Don Cheney.

I thought there was only one magician, but it turned out that this statement was only half correct.

It should be that there is only one magician in America, and there is another one in China!

Speaking of China, domestic fans watching the live broadcast were also dancing with joy.

They never thought that one day a Chinese would be able to play with ease in the NBA.

After Dell Curry hit a three-pointer, the point difference further widened.

But Don Cheney is not in a hurry. If the Lakers play like this, they will consume a lot of energy.

After all, the pace is too fast, and you have to run around all the time, with no chance to breathe.

Among them, the most tiring ones are Shay and AC Green.

ac. Green has to guard two people on the defensive end, while Shai can't stop running for a moment on the offensive end.
