Chapter 261 Dream Start
"Three-pointer, another three-pointer! This is the fourth three-pointer made by Serge Ibaka in the first quarter. The Lakers must adjust their defensive strategy!"
When the king started the game with a wave of three-pointers and immediately established a lead, Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith on the sidelines were obviously very surprised. The level of the last game is definitely not normal, but it is not normal for them to be so accurate today.
Although they had expected before the start of the game, in today's game, the players of the Kings will definitely feel better, but Serge Ibaka made 6 of 4 three-pointers and John Salmons made 3. He made 1 shot, Kevin Martin made 4 of 2 shots, and the Kings team made 13 of 7 three-pointers. Compared with the previous game, it has improved by two levels.
The first quarter of the game only played more than 8 minutes. Relying on the three-point rain of outside players, the Kings have already led the Lakers by as much as 8 points. The preparation is very sufficient, but on the contrary, the Lakers seem to be completely unprepared, still holding the thinking and psychology of the last game.
25 to 17, when Serge Ibaka made his fourth three-pointer in the game, Phil Jackson called a timeout directly, even though Phil Jackson was still strengthening the perimeter defense He hesitated between continuing to pinch Yan Hua, but Phil Jackson had to call this timeout. If in the first quarter, the opponent had a lead of more than 4 points, what would happen in the following games? beat?
After the timeout ended, Kobe Bryant, under Tony Allen's close defense and Serge Ibaka's help double-team, made a fallback jumper from outside the three-point line, directly stopping the Lakers. The declining trend narrowed the point difference between the two sides to 5 points.
"It's a pity, it's a pity, Tony Allen's defense against Kobe Bryant is not bad, Serge Ibaka's help defense is just right, but Kobe Bryant just can make it This ball."
After Kobe Bryant retaliated against the Kings with a three-pointer and showed his presence, Kenny Smith on the sidelines also called out several times. Bryant's defense is already very tough and excellent, and Serge Ibaka, who defended him, also completely blocked Kobe Bryant's shooting route, but Kobe still made the shot. Shaking his head, Kenny Smith looked at Kobe who was expressionless and backed up after the shot was made, and Kenny Smith said, "Maybe this is a superstar!"
After the timeout, the Lakers' defensive strategy on the field changed, but the double-teaming of Yan Hua did not relax at all. When Tony Allen hit the inside again, it was Kobe Bryant who made up defense It is not Pau Gasol or Lamar Odom. Obviously, in order not to relax his defense against Yan Hua, Phil Jackson chose to tear down the east wall and make up for the west wall to strengthen the opponent's fiery Sergeant. Serge Ibaka's defensive intensity eases up on John Salmons.
The result of tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall must be to press the gourd and float the scoop. When John Salmons hit a jumper in the next attack, Fei, who was looking forward to his adjustments to be effective El Jackson also shook his head helplessly.
The defense against Yan Hua must not be relaxed, at least at this stage, so we can only find a way on the rest of the Kings players. Although Tony Allen, who is not good at shooting, has been emptied, but When Yan Hua pulled up to the high position and gave way to Tony Allen's breakthrough route and space, the Lakers had to defend Tony Allen's breakthrough.
So going around, if you want to strengthen the defense against Yan Hua, you have to let go of Serge Ibaka, Kevin Martin and John Salmons. The result of Serge Ibaka has been very clear just now, so after Phil Jackson strengthened his defense against Serge Ibaka, he could only try to let go of John Salmons, one by one Fortunately, Kevin Martin's offensive ability with the ball is very average, otherwise, with his height, just holding the ball to force Derek Fisher would be enough for Phil Jackson to have a headache.
"It seems that the Lakers are a bit dangerous in today's game." Although Kobe made several difficult magic shots in a row after the timeout, John Salmons, who was relaxed by the Lakers, also Just like Kobe's possession, after consecutive shots on the offensive end, the situation of the Lakers is not too long.
At the end of the first quarter, after the Kings players left the field with a score of 36 to 28, the entire Arco Arena became a sea of joy in an instant. After the first quarter, an 8-point lead was established. , For the Kings fans at the scene, it is undoubtedly a fantastic start.
Looking at Phil Jackson who was still sitting on the bench unmoved, but his hands were scratching his head, Charles Barkley knew that this experienced coach did not know how to deal with it. The current situation, plus Phil Jackson himself is not a head coach who is good at commanding on the spot, so after the first quarter, Charles Barkley began to worry about the Lakers' next performance.
"Kobe, Paul, take a good rest first."
"Ron, you bring a few of them out, Ron, don't worry about anything, speed up, attack, before Kobe and Paul reappear, try to narrow the point difference to less than 5 points, understand?"
Phil Jackson stood up from the bench after all the main players on the field were off the field. He first let several main players rest on the bench, and then arranged for Ron Artest to lead the bench to chase points. , After arranging all the arrangements, Phil Jackson sat on the bench again, staring at the scoreboard on the court without squinting.
As Charles Barkley expected, Phil Jackson is indeed a little undecided now, how to arrange the defensive strategy on the field next, and the defense against Yan Hua must not be relaxed, but the rest of the A few, Phil Jackson really didn't know who to let go. In today's game, Lady Luck seemed to be against him. Whoever the Lakers let go will explode.
