beast basketball

Phil Jackson called a timeout, but it didn't help. After returning to the court, although the Lakers scored two consecutive offenses into the basket, they failed to narrow the point difference a little, but were continued to expand. Stephen's A two plus one and Earl Watson's three-point handicap continued to be widened to twelve points.

After another 3 minutes of balance between the two sides, the point difference was still [-] points later. At this time, the Los Angeles Lakers' offense suddenly picked up. When it came to the effect, Serge Ibaka was obviously unable to cope with the difficult job of defending the pick-and-roll, which requires experience. After the Los Angeles Lakers discovered this, they immediately turned the main attack point of the offense to Serge Ibaka. here.

Serge Ibaka's defense does have a big problem, even with Coupard's defense, it can make up for it, but the Lakers only narrowed the point difference to eight points, and then they can't move forward, because Steph has been scoring non-stop, even more efficiently than them.

After scoring [-] points in the first quarter, Stephen scored [-] points again in only half a quarter of the second quarter. In terms of how the Lakers defend and who will defend, it seems to be the same for Stephen. It has no effect, and if they can't stop Stephen's scoring, it is impossible to catch up with the score. Although their offense looks very good, there is still a big gap from the Supersonics.

Stephen is not only scoring alone, he also assists his teammates to score as usual. Although the number of times is not very high, every pass finds a teammate in the air, so the shooting percentage of the entire Sonics is at one At a very high level, and that's something the Lakers can't do. [

Kobe Bryant can get the ball into the basket in all kinds of difficult ways, but he can't pass the ball at the last moment of the shot, and most of the time, as soon as he starts the offensive program, don't count on it. He can pass the ball. In this point, even Tracy McGrady is better than him. Kobe Bryant is too obsessed with offense. In his basketball philosophy, assists are ranked very high. unimportant position.

Phil Jackson briefly used Lamar Odom to defend Stephen, who knows that it has achieved certain results. Lamar Odom faced Stephen, at least in terms of height and strength. Odom is very good at using his footsteps to defend Stephen. At least in a short period of time, Stephen failed to score consecutively. However, Stephen quickly changed his offensive method, no longer focusing on breakthroughs at the basket, but instead shooting outside. Although the hit rate dropped in a short period of time, it quickly improved.

Regarding the offense of the two teams, many experts believe that the two teams play more as a team, but above the team, there is also a player who regards the team. Kobe Bryant may have a certain gap with Stephen in terms of ability , But this is not the reason why the Sonics are so ahead.

In addition to Stephen's outstanding state today, the supersonic team's lead lies in the fact that their offense is very layered, both inside and outside. Although Stephen alone takes up a lot of shots, the shots of others are very good. Balanced, almost every player on the court has a good performance. Although it seems that they don't score very high, everyone scores, and the shooting percentage is very good.

This is a very good performance, playing quite a team, with a good chemical reaction, although this kind of offense is not a system, nor a textbook offensive tactic, but it represents that the offense has been played to the extreme. The Los Angeles Lakers can also be considered a very strong offensive team, but after playing so well, they still can't overtake the score, which confirms the strength of the Sonics on the offensive end.

In the second half of the second quarter, Stephen's performance declined slightly, perhaps due to the decline in physical strength, or perhaps because the Los Angeles Lakers found a way to defend him. After three consecutive missed shots, Stephen did not shoot for 2 minutes. He scored two points with free throws, and his personal score also stayed at 37 points, and there was no movement for a long time.

At this time, Kobe Bryant's score also reached 27 points. The 27-point difference is basically exactly the point difference between the two teams. For Kobe Bryant, 32 points in the half is already a comparative statistic, but Compared with Stephen, it is much inferior, but Kobe Bryant is still improving his own scoring, but Stephen's scoring has stopped. Finally, before the end of the first half, Kobe Bryant Te finally raised his own score to [-] points and narrowed the difference between the two sides to only six points.

At this time, the time left was only enough for the Sonics to complete an attack, so it was naturally handed over to Stephen. Although Russell Westbrook, who had just changed into the field, was a little eager to try, he finally defeated his own offensive desire and put the The ball was handed over to Stephen, and after Stephen got the ball, he dribbled and dribbled for a long time. When there was only one second left in the time, he suddenly dialed up and shot. The ball flew into the basket in an instant, without even a little resistance No stagnation at all.

Stephen's personal score reached forty, and the lead was extended to nine points. During the intermission, they discussed the game and the duel between Stephen and Kobe Bryant, the two scoring masters. Whether the Sonics or Steph will win, but most people are leaning toward the Sonics.

Not to mention strength and ability, but from the current situation of the two teams, the Sonics should play more aggressively than the Lakers, because if they lose another game, they will be one to three behind. Only by winning this game can we regain the tie, and at the same time have home court advantage. Just for this, the Sonics played harder than the Los Angeles Lakers.

Of course, if the strength gap between the two sides is too large, no matter how hard you try, you will have to discount it, but when the strength of the two sides is about the same, then whoever works the hardest will naturally have a greater chance of winning.

The main reason is that these people are already psychologically inclined that the Sonics will win, because basically everyone can see that in this state, the Sonics naturally played out all they can, but the Lakers The team also used all their strength. Even in the second half, the state of both sides declined, and the Lakers still couldn't take advantage.

The main reason is that they saw that Stephen was in excellent form today, but they couldn't just say that with Stephen alone, the Sonics would be guaranteed to win. You can talk about the morale of the Sonics.

Among the Chinese fans, the most popular team, besides the Houston Rockets, is the Los Angeles Lakers. When Stephen was in the Spurs, the Spurs were not as good as these two teams, but when Stephen arrived in the Super League After the Sonic team, with his success, his popularity in China rose to the point where he could rival Kobe Bryant, and then as he joined the Chinese national team and won the Olympic gold medal, his popularity became obvious It surpassed Yao Ming.

And this season, after Yao Ming joined the Sonics, the Sonics have completely become the home team of Chinese fans. It is far from being comparable to the Lakers, but apart from the Sonics, the Lakers are the most popular. Especially in the matter of Yao Ming, the performance of the Rockets severely hurt the hearts of Chinese fans, so now that the Rockets are mentioned, most Chinese fans hate them, and the Lakers naturally became the only favorite.

To say that Sun Yue did not play any role in it, just like Yijianlian did not play any role in the Milwaukee Bucks and New Jersey Nets, nor did it contribute to the team like Yao Ming did in the Rockets. Bringing a lot of sponsorship, in general, is still not popular.

Therefore, this game was broadcast by CCTV at the level of the finals, and it was also warmly welcomed by the fans. In addition to being lower than last year's Olympic men's basketball game, the ratings created a new high for broadcasting an American basketball game. For this game, the narrator has a very clever metaphor. If this game is compared to a long-distance race, the Sonics have been in the leading position from the very beginning, while the Lakers have been playing the role of chasing behind. color”, but the disadvantage for them is that every time they exert their strength to catch up a little distance, the Sonics will also exert their strength to throw them away again.

On the surface, it seems that the gap is not that big, but the Lakers have shown their overtaking power. More importantly, this kind of pulling in and being pulled in and out will hurt the morale of the players. If they can't lead the score , it will be more difficult as you go to the back.

If they can overtake or even tie once, it will give the Lakers great confidence and boost their morale, but it is such a small gap for them, it is so difficult for them, even Kobe Bryant has already It started to work hard, but it was still not enough to overtake the score, because the Sonics had a Stephen with a stronger scoring ability. [

Not all experts or professors have a reputation for nothing, some of them are real, and the wisdom of all people is added together, and there are always times when they are right, and their theory is very accurate. The morale of the Lakers was not exhausted, and they even had doubts about Kobe Bryant.

In the past, the Lakers players believed that as long as there was Kobe Bryant at critical times, we would not suffer, but now, or against the Sonics, people don't think so. Obviously, Stephen's key scoring ability Not at all worse than Kobe Bryant, not to mention that he is still behind, but if he can't lead by a big score, he dare not say who wins and who loses at the end of the game. Naturally, the players have no confidence. Although Phil Jackson can I understand, but there is no good way. He is not a head coach who is good at impressing people with words. One of the prerequisites for his coaching is that the team must have a particularly strong fighting spirit. He can lead the team to work hard without his encouragement. A desperate player, and he just needs to manage this player well.

For such a player, he likes to let him watch some books or movies, and then through communication and communication, find ideological resonance, mobilize the enthusiasm of the player, resolve his knots, and transform the player ideologically. But this is not something that can be changed with just a few words, so he sat there, while recuperating, silently watching the expressions of the players.

The important main force of the team can sometimes get his advice, and for those unimportant substitutes or players who can't play at all, he won't even say a word to them for a season, this is Phil Jackson, His popularity among the players is not particularly good, the players don't love him, and he doesn't care much about the players.

In fact, it’s not just Phil Jackson, many head coaches are like this, just like Carlesimo is not a particularly arrogant head coach, a player like Von Weaver, after one season, Carlesimo really I didn't say a word to him, why, because I don't need it, if it is necessary to communicate with these important main players, it is to make the cooperation between the two parties better, and my intentions can be better carried out, then those who don't Players who have the opportunity to play or can only play in garbage time, what is the point of the head coach communicating with them, maybe he will leave next season.

Many people complain that a certain head coach doesn’t know how to train newcomers, but they don’t know that if the head coach’s job is big, he only needs to be responsible for the team and the fans, and if he’s small, he only needs to be responsible for himself. , responsible for the team's record, I never heard that I was responsible for that player's career, it's not the college league, and it's not the youth training camp, why should I be responsible for your career, as a professional Players, if you cannot adapt to the team or the head coach, you must have the consciousness of being eliminated.

In this regard, **Vich is a very special example. Every player in the team will talk to you, understand your psychological dynamics, and suggest improvement plans for the technical characteristics of the players, etc. Basically everyone All of them, of course, this is not to say that Vicki is more responsible or good, but that he believes that since the team has given a player a contract and paid a salary, it is for this player to make contributions , Maybe he won't be needed for a while, but when the team needs him, his strength must be able to satisfy Vicki, so that he can live up to the salary the team gave him.

Phil Jackson had nothing to do. He just sat there with an extremely stable expression, as if the team was leading the Sonics, not the Sonics. For experienced players, they also know that Phil Jackson is helpless.

After all, the role that the head coach can play is limited. He can't play, he can only influence the players on the tactical or psychological level, and for those players with a firm mind, you have no influence on them at the psychological level. As for tactics, until now, tactics basically have no effect, so Phil Jackson, not to mention just a Zen master, even the Zen ancestor can't help it.

Naturally, the Supersonics did not make any adjustments. Just like the last game, Carlesimo asked Stephen if he needed a rest, but Stephen directly refused. He scored [-] points in the first half, and let everyone in the team The way people look at Stephen is different from before. After all, many people here did not co-create the magic of last season with Stephen. For most players, scoring [-] points after the whole game is basically a It is a major event in the season or in a lifetime, and half a game is worth [-] points. Many people dare not even think about it. It can only be done by a person like Jordan. Seeing such a real person sitting in front of them , naturally made them very hard to believe.

Stephen didn't care how many of them there were. He felt very comfortable venting in the first half, but he didn't enjoy it to the extreme. Therefore, he had an urgent psychological expectation for the second half of the game, but he also knew that his body He was indeed a little tired, so he seized the time to sit down and meditate. Fortunately, the turtle and snake pan he practiced was known for its long energy channels. In just ten minutes, he felt that his body had recovered a lot.

Soon the staff came over to remind the second half to start, and the players from both sides returned to the court. The Sonics sent their own full starting lineup as at the beginning of the first half, while Kobe Bryant on the Lakers side continued to stay on the court. Just replaced Trevor Ariza, who was tired of defending Stephen as if he was dying, and replaced him with Shannon Brown to start for him.

The Lakers had planned to launch a fierce attack from the very beginning to narrow the point difference as much as possible, but Stephen came up and gave them a head-on blow, almost knocking them out. As soon as Stephen got the ball, he made a fake shot. Shannon Brown may have been too active in trying to express himself, or maybe he didn't recognize that it was a fake move, so he rushed over. Naturally, Stephen wouldn't be polite to him, and stayed in the air, pulling his hands back, Then he sent it forward and waited for him to get close before making a shot. The two happened to meet, and Stephen also threw the ball into the basket.

A free throw will be added if the foul is counted. You must know that this is a three-pointer. The significance of this four-pointer is not only to get four points, but also to expand the point difference to [-] points. At the same time, it also allows the Lakers to prepare The offensive launched suddenly lost most of the morale.

Just like a person who was about to go out to do something, suddenly got sick, or saw a beautiful woman who was about to strike up a conversation, but found that his voice was hoarse. Although the analogy is not very close, anyway, the Lakers' next offensive It wasn't even as good as the first half. Obviously, just like the commentator on CCTV said, their confidence had been shattered by Stephen and was about to disappear.

And Stephen's performance continued. After completing the four-point play, Stephen scored another layup. After two rounds, he failed to score. He turned around and made a three-pointer, and then broke through and caused a foul by Shannon Brown. Two free throws were made, and less than 4 minutes into the third quarter, Stephen scored another eleven points, while Kobe Bryant only scored two points. As Kobe Bryant missed another shot, even himself It also seemed a little lack of confidence, but Phil Jackson knew that it was because of his physical strength, so he asked for his opinion and replaced him.

Watching Kobe Bryant walk past him at the end of the court, Stephen turned his head to one side with a grimace. He is so old, so he shouldn’t be like young people who want to be strong and aggressive, just take a rest when it’s time to rest, but Stephen doesn’t Dare to say so on the lips, it is fine to talk trash normally, but now Kobe Bryant may turn around and punch himself if he says so.
