Chapter 1133 Phil Jackson's Psychological Shadow
In the locker room of the visiting team, Phil Jackson got the starting list, his expression was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately became dignified.
The Sun's starting was somewhat unexpected, and he began to think about the problem.
He has to consider one thing, and only one thing to consider, and that is Li Ba's position in this game.
On the defensive end, Li Ba must be defending against Kobe, and he is the only one among the five who can defend against Kobe, but what about the offensive end?Will it go low?
Yi should be pulled out to play and take away Artest, while Yao should be in the high position and defended by Duncan, so what about Gasol?
Gasol can also be pulled out of the paint. He has two points. If he pulls out, then Li Ba will have space under the basket.
In other words, Li Ba is likely to play the fifth position on the offensive end.
But how do the Lakers switch defenses?
Specifically, when Lee Ba is in the low post, who should Kobe switch defenses?
No, the Suns have four insiders, except for Li Ba, and the other three are over 210 cm. No matter which one Kobe switches defenses, it is impossible to defend. The Suns will definitely get a dislocation advantage, so how should the Lakers defend?
Phil Jackson scratched his head, he knew that in the final analysis, the problem still lies with Li Ba.
Such a guy with the speed of a small forward and the flexibility of a guard is the most dominant center. He can play in multiple positions, which makes the Lakers' lineup very passive.
In the end, he decided to put one in.
Only one can be placed so that Kobe does not have to face those elders.
Put one and let Kobe double-team the ball holder, so that the disadvantage can be regained.
Not long after, the two teams played one after another.
The visiting team played, and there was a huge boo at the American West Arena.
The home team played, and the American West Arena was filled with jubilation.
"Defending! Defending! Defending..."
When Li Ba came out, the audience cheered.
"father!"
"Come on, darling, follow Dad."
Guoguo stood at the exit and waited for Li Ba, then followed Li Ba like a little tail, bouncing around the front row, waving her little hands in a learned manner, and those in the front row People say hello.
Yu Jia laughed and said, "This little guy is a born star!"
Zhang Lili said with a smile: "Her appearance rate is much higher than that of ordinary Hollywood stars. She has appeared on the covers of many magazines. She has 2000 million fans on Facebook, no less than her mother."
Xu Jicheng asked: "I don't know what kind of job Hammer wants the little guy to do in the future?"
"Tennis." Zhang Lili said with certainty.
"Tennis?" Xu Jicheng said in surprise: "Their family's Xianbei Media has already heard that it is going to go public. I thought it would either enter the entertainment industry or take the road of hammer. How about playing basketball?"
Zhang Lili shook his head and smiled, "I've talked with Tie Hammer about this. Do you know why Tie Hammer plays tennis? It's to pave the way for his daughter."
"My God, this road is so luxuriously paved. It started off as a Wimbledon champion." Yu Jia shook his head and laughed.
At this time, Stern appeared in the American West Arena and presented Li Ba with the MVP trophy.
"MVP! MVP! MVP..." The audience shouted again.
The game started, the jump ball, Gasol Jr. beat Gasol, and the Suns attacked.
Phil Jackson stared at Li Ba to see where he played on the offensive end.
"Double stack?" His eyes narrowed.
I saw the Suns' four big insiders. Gasol Jr. is in the low position on the left wing, Li Ba is on the top near the left elbow, A Lian is on the low position on the right wing, and Dayao is on the top right elbow.
Four people separate the four corners of the paint area, a typical double-stacking tactic.
According to the defensive tactics formulated by the Lakers, Gasol defends Gasol Jr., Duncan defends Dayao, Artest defends Li Ba, and Kobe goes to double-team the ball-handler, that is, Ginobili.
The Lakers put Alian, because Alian usually pulls out to play. Although the low post has skills, but he plays less, so the lethality is very small.
Seeing this, Phil Jackson knew it was going to be bad, because the double-stacking tactic can be inside or outside. Yi who was emptied can be pulled out, or he can go straight to the basket, but now he is emptied, he will definitely hit directly go in.
At this time, Ginobili rushed to pass the ball to Li Ba in the left elbow before the double-team came up.
After Li Ba got the ball, Ah Lian, who was short on the right wing, rushed to the basket, and he immediately passed the ball to the right side of the basket.
"boom!"
With an alley-oop dunk with both hands, Ah Lian blew up the Lakers' basket.
"Pretty!"
Yu Jia roared excitedly.
The Lakers attacked and after serving, Phil Jackson called a timeout directly.
He also waved toward the bench and called Odom.
He has no choice but to increase the height on the court.
But replacing Odom is also troublesome, because if Li Ba plays an outside fast break when the offense is in transition, the Lakers will be in trouble.
Seeing the Lakers call a timeout, Barkley said in surprise: "I know Phil's habit, calling a timeout now must be a tactical problem."
Kenny Smith said: "That's because the Lakers are too low on the field to prevent this double-stacking tactic. He will definitely have to change players and tactics."
After the players came down, Phil Jackson said: "Now we are attacking, Kobe is the first ball holder, Odom is the second ball holder, Paul and Odom are spread out on the left and right flanks, Tim is moving around the basket, Do the pick and roll for Kobe's breakthrough. Tim, try to block the hammer. Kobe, you have to kill Yao as much as possible, knock him down.
When the offense and defense are in transition, if the Hammers launch a fast break, Ron, you must keep up. You should not enter the low post on the offensive end, but stay a little higher.
When other people are switching offense and defense, if they have the opportunity, they must pay attention to preventing the hammer from starting. "
The game restarted and the Lakers went on offense.
Seeing that the Lakers replaced Odom and Kobe was the point guard, Payton immediately shouted: "Hammer, you can figure it out on the court."
Li Ba is speechless, am I not the head coach?
Gasol is active on the left wing, and Gasol is defending.
Artest is on the left-wing three-point line near the top of the arc, and Li Ba is defending below the left elbow.
Odom is active on the right wing, defended by the United Arab Emirates.
Duncan is under the basket, facing Yao.
At this time, Kobe took the ball to the right wing, and he will attack from here.
Ginobili greeted him.
At this time Odom came up to do the pick and roll, and Kobe broke into the wing.
At this time, the UAE changed defenses, and Kobe suddenly changed direction, and then rushed to the UAE.
Duncan, who was about to go out to do a pick-and-roll, saw Dayao in the basket and made an offensive screen for Kobe.
But at this time Li Ba rushed down, and he threw Artest away.
As soon as Kobe saw it, he immediately stopped for a jumper + fadeaway on the edge of the paint.
"boom!"
Two point hit.
As soon as the ball was shot, Kobe immediately turned and ran, returning to defense.
But the Suns did not play a fast break, but still a positional battle.
Phil Jackson breathed a sigh of relief off the court. In the past few seasons, he was psychologically shadowed by the Suns' fast break.
