NBA Dynasty Sniper - Chapter 417

In the first half, although the Lakers had an OK combination, the offense was not smooth. O’Neal played very hard at the basket, so Kobe later took over the offense.

But Kobe couldn’t easily break in. The first line of defense Zhao Dong couldn’t easily break through, and there was Marion’s second line of defense behind him, and the third line of defense of Fordson and Davis was behind him. It’s impossible to make five bursts every time, so he also shoots outside, no matter how efficient he is, he is not as efficient as the Blazers’ offensive efficiency at the basket.

Zhao Dong has been stunning O’Neal, not only he stunned, but Marion is also stunned, and the two take turns to keep running.

O’Neal has been playing the role of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the defensive end. By the sixth minute, he couldn’t help it.

This time it was Zhao Dong who attracted double teams outside. Marion cut in without the ball. The former passed the ball and the latter rushed towards him without a ball.

He couldn’t bear it, so he didn’t need to bear it anymore and directly pulled Marion down.

If Fordson hadn’t hugged Marion in time, Marion might have been injured.

“Beep!”

The referee’s whistle sounded.

“Special!”

Zhao Dong was also on fire. He was thrown by O’Neal in the first quarter. It doesn’t matter if he is immune to injuries, so he didn’t trouble O’Neal. Marion is not immune to injuries, and Marion’s ability to resist is not strong. It is not the protection of teammates, and it is possible to fall and waste, how can he tolerate it?

Besides, as the boss, he has to stand up for his younger brother, and if he doesn’t stand up, it is equivalent to encouraging O’Neal. Next time he will do that again, who will dare to rush in after the Blazers?

“shark!”

He yelled and rushed forward.

“what?”

O’Neill turned his head when he heard the sound, his eyes were dark, his throat was locked, and his whole person was immediately thrown to the floor under a huge force.

“Boom!”

The floor jumped three times, he was stunned and his eyes were straightened.

“Oh!”

The audience exclaimed.

Beep, the referee continued to sound the whistle, rushed up and started pulling Zhao Dong.

Players from both sides also rushed up.

“Oh, Feilong has done it!”

When Barkley saw him, he jumped up from his seat and yelled: “O’Neal attacked Marion, and the dragon came out for the little brother.”

“Pull him away!”

On the sidelines, things were so sudden, Phil Jackson was taken aback, and then shouted at the players on the court.

David Stern was sitting on the sidelines watching the game, seeing this scene, patted his thigh irritably.

On the field, Zhao Dong was pulled up.

In fact, he has been merciful to O’Neal’s men, otherwise, instead of falling him, he can knock him directly with a punch.

“O’Neal, if you can’t help it, we will give in. If you dare to commit a malicious foul, I will invalidate you next time.” After being pulled away, he still pointed at the stunned O’Neal on the floor and shouted sharply.

“I?”

After O’Neill reacted, he looked aggrieved. Who made you attack me? You have four championships, as well as four MVP and FMVP. I’m still empty-handed. Is it easy for me?

The president was on the sidelines. In order to put out the fire, the referee hurriedly dealt with it. He directly gave O’Neal a first-degree malicious foul, with two free throws and one throw, and then gave Zhao Dong a technical foul with one penalty and one throw. Together, they were the Blazers. Two free throws, the Lakers free one, the Lakers have the ball.

The penalty seems to be a loss for the Blazers and did not get the ball, but Zhao Dong did it. O’Neal is not a small role, and the referee had to give him a technical offense.

Barkley analyzed at this time: “The shark’s movements are indeed too dangerous. He has done it on the flying dragon once in the first quarter, and this time, and he did not have any protective actions against the flying dragon and Marion. It’s normal to be irritated.”

“I don’t know why the flying dragon uses the wrestling action, if he directly punches O’Neill?” Smith asked curiously.

“Oh……”

Barkley smiled and shook his head and said, “Then the shark will be taken off the court directly, and then go to the hospital to check whether his head has been blown up, haha!”

“So in fact, Feilong is merciful. But I think if the shark does that again, Feilong may not keep his hands anymore.” Smith laughed.

In the CCTV commentary booth, Zhang Lili was also talking about this issue. He said: “The league has stipulated the defensive rules of a reasonable collision zone, which can only be vertical take-off, the defender cannot make extra moves, and the elbow cannot leave his cylinder. This Although the defender is very passive, the rules are fair. It is for both sides, so this rule must be followed.

And when O’Neal was unable to defend the Blazers’ impact on him, he took such a malicious foul defensive action. It was indeed too much. Zhao Dong’s action is excusable. “

Su Qun said: “I think O’Neal will not dare to do that anymore. If he does it again, there will be a fight in this game, and the Lakers will be blown by Zhao Dong.”

“One pick twelve?”

Zhang Yangliang laughed after speaking.

Indeed, after the game started, O’Neal didn’t dare to do that anymore, and Zhao Dong began to attack him with all his strength.

Encouraged by Zhao Dong, Marion was not timid, and continued to attack O’Neal.

In addition to Eddie Jones, in the impact of the three people, O’Neal shrank, and was thrown by Zhao Dong, his state was not good, and he quickly received a third personal foul, and was then substituted off the bench.

At the end of the second quarter, the Blazers used a strong impact to blow up the Lakers’ inside line, leading by fifteen points.

In the second half, the Lakers put on an inside bench, wanting to top one, so as not to leave O’Neal prematurely.

But this is useless. After getting on the bench, the Lakers themselves did not have a strong low post and basket offense. They were self-defeating martial arts, and they were also blown by the Blazers.

Phil Jackson could only let O’Neal play again, and then ushered in a strong impact from the Blazers.

O’Neal played for three minutes and received a fourth foul. His defense was no longer able to watch, and it was completely defensive with eyes. Even if Eddie Jones stopped a jump shot in front of him, he didn’t dare to block it.

On the offensive end, with the decline in physical fitness, the offense at the basket began to decrease, and the efficiency decreased.

But Phil Jackson did not replace O’Neal, because at this time the point difference was 20 points, and after the replacement, it was tantamount to giving up the game.

But the result of his non-switching is actually the same. Without defensive O’Neal, how can he stop the Blazers from attacking?

At the same time, Fordson further strengthened O’Neal’s defense, coupled with Marion’s quick defense, resolutely not let him get close to the basket easily, further reducing the Sharks offensive efficiency.

In two phases, the Lakers accelerated their collapse, and after the third quarter, they fell behind by 23 points, and the last quarter was considered **** time.

At the beginning of the last quarter, the Lakers did not give up the game, still unable to make a comeback, and eventually lost the G1 game.

94:120, the Blazers won by 26 points.

Zhao Dong made 20 of 25 shots, most of which were breakthroughs, because O’Neal was not defensive enough and his shooting percentage was as high as 80%. In addition, he made 13 free throws and scored 53 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists in a quasi triple-double.

After the game, Zhao Dong accepted a live interview on the sidelines.

“Flying dragon, what do you want to say about O’Neill’s two malicious acts?” the Portland Sports reporter asked.

“Next time I will teach him, not just put him on the floor gently.” Zhao Dongdao.

“Feilong, what do you expect from the G2 battle?” another reporter asked.

“Gentle? As gentle as shit! Your gentleness almost killed me.”

O’Neal happened to be passing by, and when he heard Zhao Dong’s words, he cried very angrily.

“Go away, you guy who likes malicious fouls.”

Zhao Dong waved his hand to drive away, so angry that O’Neill turned his head and left. The reporters also roared with laughter.

An hour later, the two teams held a press conference.

“O’Neal, why do you use malicious foul action to defend?” A local reporter asked at the Lakers press conference.

“No, I didn’t want to hurt them.” O’Neill distinguished.

“But you didn’t have any protective actions against them, when you pulled them down.” The reporter asked coldly.

“I’m too late.” O’Neill began to quibble.

“Are you worried that the Blazers will use the same defensive moves on you?” the reporter asked.

“this……”

O’Neal was also worried, if you give him that way, it might hurt him.

“Feilong just said, next time there is such a movement, he will not gently put you on the floor.” The reporter finally said.

“He is not gentle, he almost fell me to death.” O’Neill grieved.

“Coach Jackson, the Lakers have such a strong lineup, and they are tied with the Trail Blazers in the regular season. Why did you lose so badly today?”

A reporter from Los Angeles asked.

Phil Jackson rubbed his forehead and said, “The situation is obvious. The flying dragon killed Shaq. He succeeded. We didn’t protect Shaq enough.”

“In other words, was it because of tactical reasons that the game was lost?” the reporter asked.

Phil Jackson is very reluctant to admit this, but he can’t deny it, because the Lakers lineup is there, and he can’t push the problem to O’Neal, saying that O’Neal has not controlled his fouls, which will definitely detonate O’Neal’s temper.

There are some things he cannot say here, or even anywhere.

Traditionally, power forwards do coolies for centers. Defending, rebounding, and protecting centers is the job of power forwards.

But he can’t arrange David Robinson to do coolies, and Robinson can’t agree, so the super center combination is not enough for O’Neal’s protection.

Then the Blazers opened up the tactics on the inside, and the old David Robinson didn’t have many opportunities to help defend. Even if he wanted to protect O’Neal, he couldn’t do it.

He was unjustly lost in the G1 game. He knows this very well. With the offensive strength of the Lakers’ main lineup, as long as the main lineup persists long enough, there is a chance to beat the Blazers. The regular season has proved this.

He believes that the only problem now is how to protect O’Neal so that he can play all his combat power from the offensive end to the defensive end.

As long as this is done, the super center combination can blow the Blazers.

Facing the reporter’s questioning, he could only nod his head to admit, and said: “We will protect Shaq in the G2 battle and do everything possible.”

On the Trailblazers side, the atmosphere is very good.

“Larry, in our four regular season games with the Lakers, the Flying Dragon did not attack O’Neal. Is this deliberate?” a local reporter asked.

Larry Bird smiled triumphantly and nodded.

In the four regular seasons of this season, he really hasn’t let Zhao Dong play like this, just want to paralyze the Lakers. Only now has he come up with this tactic that can play Zhao Dong’s most powerful ability, and he really fought in the G1 battle. The Lakers were caught off guard.

The next morning, the media commented on the game last night, generally optimistic about the Blazers winning the Western Conference Finals.

And that afternoon, the Lakers held a tactical meeting in the hotel.

Kobe was a little dissatisfied. He raised a doubt and said: “I don’t understand, why don’t we increase outside offense after the Sharks and David’s efficiency decreased in the second half?

Is it because of efficiency? But after the Blazers strengthened their defense, coupled with their decline in physical fitness, too many fouls, and their efficiency has declined, can we consider strengthening the outside offense and let them be responsible for rebounds under the basket? “

Phil Jackson’s heart moved, yeah, this is indeed a way.

O’Neal and David Robinson have absolute heights in the basket. Only O’Neal’s height reached 211 cm. The Lakers have a high degree of advantage.

Kobe again said: “We have never played in the entire season, that is, the slaughter lineup that Barkley created. Can we also consider it? Shaq and David can be more easily Go in and fight, I can kill them.”

Phil Jackson began to think about this issue. His tactic has always been a triangle offense. This is the main one, followed by the two-tower tactics under the basket. He really has never played such a tactic of pulling out the inside.

Traditional center tactics have never been a tactical way of pulling both insides out. In fact, he does not agree with the tactics of killing the gods, which will seriously weaken the role of the center and the advantage of the basket.

But now he lost the G1 game by a big score, which reminded him of the experience of being defeated by Zhao Dong’s team in the previous four years, forcing him to start thinking about more tactical possibilities, even if he is not very good at this tactic. , Also have to consider.

However, after careful consideration, he decided to only consider this kind of inside tactics as one of the regular tactics, not to play more, only to play when the inside needs to regain physical strength.

When Kobe heard it, he gave a cold snort and fell silent.

Seeing Kobe’s appearance, Phil Jackson knew that the kid disagreed. In order to prevent Kobe from acting arbitrarily on the court, he explained:

“Kobe, although the inside line can be pulled out to make room for you to break through, but they play a two-one-two defense, you are likely to encounter a double-team, and at the same time, there is a second line of defense from Marion in the middle, and the second line of defense that was pulled out. With three lines of defense, you still have to break through several lines of defense in a row. How sure are you?

What we want is efficiency. A success rate of less than 60% is not what we need.

We are facing the efficiency **** Flying Dragon. His hit rate in the G1 battle is as high as 80%. Can you ensure that the breakthrough success rate is more than 80%? “

“…”

Kobe was dumb as soon as he heard it. How could he have a breakthrough success rate of more than 80%? Just the flying dragon level is not easy to break.

Phil Jackson didn’t want to hit Kobe’s morale, and said: “We’re not not playing that kind of tactics. The coaching staff will design that kind of tactics for you. Promise me not to do it recklessly.”

“Phil, I promise you.” Kobe said with excitement.

“Phil, how are you going to fight?” General Manager Jerry West asked at this moment.

Phil Jackson already had an idea in his mind and said: “We lost in the G1 game and did not prevent the flying dragon from killing Shaq. Therefore, our main problem in the G2 game is to do everything possible to prevent him from attacking Shaq.

We can’t defend the Wyvern on the defensive end. At this point, I have played against him for five seasons. This is the fifth season. From the Bulls to the Lakers, I admit that I have never defended him.

Therefore, if we can’t prevent him from scoring, and if we continue to let him attack Shaq and our scoring ability is weakened, then we have to lose, so we must solve this problem. “

When he said this, everyone nodded one after another.

Everyone in the G1 game was very aggrieved, especially O’Neal, who was very restrained and was able to make full shots on the offensive end. Later, there were too many fouls, and another offensive foul was called. The offensive end was afraid to go all out.

But no one can solve this problem.

Because solving the problem of O’Neill not being impacted is how to prevent Zhao Dong from breaking through. This is actually an unsolvable problem.

Therefore, they are now looking at Phil Jackson, hoping that he can come up with a solution.

But in fact, they didn’t count on Phil Jackson much, because Jackson hadn’t solved the problem of how to defend Zhao Dong in the past few years.

Phil Jackson seemed to feel the suspicion in everyone’s eyes~www.mtlnovel.com~ a bit embarrassing, because he really didn’t have any good solutions. If there was, he would not lose in the Bulls.

“So, you just made suggestions, but there is no solution?” Seeing Phil Jackson’s appearance, everyone was disappointed.

“I am going to play mixed defense in the G2 battle, and Kobe will defend the Wyvern.” Phil Jackson said at this time.

“Mixed defense?” Everyone was startled, can it work?

“Me?” Kobe refreshed.

He is not afraid of challenges, no matter how much pressure he can withstand, the main defense is the main defense, no big deal.

“Then……”

A resolute look flashed in Phil Jackson’s eyes, gritted his teeth and said: “We are playing foul tactics on Flying Dragon.”

“what?”

Everyone is shocked, do you want to commit suicide?
