Chapter 515 [Newcomers become talents, swept to advance]
The "Drug Combination" only played for 30 minutes, and the offensive efficiency was super high.
姚名35分15篮板3助攻2盖帽，科比28分3篮板8助攻，两人合力就已经接近森林狼全队得分了。
Six of the Lakers scored in double figures, with all 12 players coming on and scoring.
森林狼4人得分上双，没人拿下20+，加内特也只有19分11篮板5助攻2抢断。
After the game, the reporter asked Garnett to comment on the game, but he kept his face dark.
What is there to say?Blind people can see the difference between the two teams by listening to the sound of hammers and the cheers of the home fans.It's enough to be depressed if he can't beat him. Does he have to cry and complain to reporters at the press conference to be happy?
In fact, the reporter wanted to get Garnett to criticize his teammates for being lousy, saying that he wanted to leave the Timberwolves in the summer, and that would be big news.The Timberwolves' loss is hardly news.
McHale said happily that the Timberwolves are not opponents of the Lakers: "I am optimistic that the Lakers will win the championship this season. Their lineup is very strong. Yao Ming and Kobe are both superstars, but the two of them are not easy to deal with."
In the second game, the Timberwolves players proved that what the coach said was correct, they couldn't prevent the "drug combination".
The two were still in the old tactical high pick-and-roll, and the Lakers led by 15 points in the first quarter.
This time, Kobe Bryant was the one who made the move. He made a consecutive pull-up jumper. Olavokandi changed his pick-and-roll faster. When he was close to him, Kobe made a breakthrough, and a change of direction was extraordinary.
Yao Ming did not cut in the perimeter after the pick-and-roll, which would create a dislocation one-on-one opportunity for Kobe. Kobe attracted double-teams in the middle and Hoiberg in the bottom corner. Both of them can guarantee the hit rate.
In the second quarter, the Lakers deployed swingman tactics, and Diao was a cameo center.
Olavokandi played, with a clear advantage in height and weight, but he couldn't single against Dior in the low post, which surprised all Timberwolves fans.
He doesn't have a post-up step, doesn't like confrontation, prefers jumpers from the free-throw line, and isn't good at making passes.Except for Mo Williams, the Lakers are swingers who can interfere with shots.
The Clippers hired Kareem Abdul-Jabbar at a high salary to teach Oravokandi to hook, but Oravokandi dismissed it and didn't learn the fart.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Abdul-Jabbar said a classic saying: "Bynum was a diligent child, and the other one I taught, Olavokandi, couldn't compare to him at all."
Yes, compared with the "sugar man", who dares to sleep with his wife as a teaching assistant, later generations is known for wasting talent, and the little sharks who laugh evilly and madly can be called diligent.
In the face of the Lakers' quick counterattack, Olavokandi was not fast enough to return to defense, and the point difference was quickly pulled to more than 20 points.
At the end of the half, the Lakers led by 27 points and sealed the victory early.
In the second half, Yao Ming and Kobe played for half a quarter, and the difference widened to 30 points. The stars were all replaced and rested. The Lakers still took the initiative and finally won 123-88 by 45 points.
Yang Rui didn't call a timeout throughout the game, and the adjustment was a substitution. After the game, he received a higher evaluation than before.
Because people found that the newcomer of the Lakers is too tough.Mo Williams, Ariza, Iguodala, and Diaw, four players who have only been in the league for one or two years, plus Diop, can fight against the Timberwolves' starter, even if Garnett and Szczerbiak are present. Not cheap.
The online fans discussed and admired the success rate of Yang Rui's new recruits.
"Jerry Young coached a rookie. When he never missed a shot, Mo Williams, a fringe man the Jazz didn't want, took control of the ball. When it came to the Lakers, he often played like an All-Star."
"Dior was useless in the Eagles, but the Lakers are really worthy of the title of 'French Magician', too strong."
"Although Diop's offense is poor, he is the only one in the defensive restricted area, and Wanfu is not open. He is a qualified substitute for Yao Ming. Even without Lamar Odom, the Lakers' inside line is not weak."
Even if Diop's playing time is minimal, there are still people who see his value.The Lakers have to renew their contract, and when the defense needs to be strengthened, this black tower is present, and even O'Neal can't easily get to the basket.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Diop's defensive performance won praise from the entire league. As one of the worst offensive players in the league, he could only play 13 seasons in the NBA.
The existence of Diop destined that even if Yao Ming ended, as long as Yang Rui wanted to strengthen his defense, the Lakers could keep the penalty area.
When the Timberwolves returned to the home court, they were still out of temper when they were beaten by the Lakers. Garnett couldn't drive the whole team to attack, and the defense was also lacking. The Lakers would bypass him to attack.
125-91, the Timberwolves lost another game, trailing 0-3.
In this TNT radio broadcast, Barkley laughed at Olavokandi who was left empty again and again, and broke out the golden sentence: "The Lakers don't care how many points Olavokandi scores, because even if he is in the game Zhongda broke out, and the score will definitely not exceed 8 points."
Everyone in the Timberwolves, including coach McHale, didn't think about winning. They just wanted to lose a little less in the fourth game, and hoped that this series would end sooner.
Garnett played very well in this game, scoring 27 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 blocks, and also hit a three-pointer, still unable to lead the team to win.
ESPN expert Nicholas analysis: Garnett belongs to the kind of player who can do everything, and is proficient in everything, especially the back flip jumper is difficult to defend. ? However, Garnett's offensive lethality is not enough, and he can't pass the tough attack, attracting double-teams and scoring the ball to blow up the opponent.Compared with the stars of the same grade and reputation, his ability to attract double teams is still weak.
To put it simply, it is very easy for Garnett to deal with teams with weak inside lines.There is no advantage against the inside combination of the Lakers. They can only make high shots in exchange for points, and the hit rate is average.
In the fourth game, Yang Rui, uncharacteristically, gave up one-on-one defense and asked the players to resolutely double-team Garnett near the penalty area, and let Olavokandi, Hudson, Hassel and others shoot.
加内特被包夹后得分效率大降，全场打了36分钟，14投5中，罚球6中5，得到15分8篮板6助攻。
Except for Szczerbiak who scored 21 points, none of his teammates played well. Kassel 10 points, Hayes 12 points, and no one else scored in double figures.
"Alien" Cassell averaged 12 points and 5 assists per game in the series. He is already old. Even if he leaves the Timberwolves in the summer, it will be difficult to get a big contract.
The Lakers won 113-77.
Yao Ming scored 27 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks in the last battle, made 7 of 3 three-pointers, and dunked four times. When he's ready to dunk, he pulls it off.
At that time, the Timberwolves were behind by 30 points. Garnett yelled at his teammates several times on the defensive end, dissatisfied with the defense, and Yang Rui suspected that a conflict was about to occur, seeing Garnett's violent temper.
As a result, Garnett controlled his emotions and did not provoke Yao Ming. After getting up, he walked to the free throw line listlessly to make a free throw without even looking at Yao Ming.
Garnett's ball quotient is very high, and provocation is always based on people.In the regular season, there is a lesson from the past. The Bucks' Mason faced Yao Ming once and became a public enemy of China.Garnett will not give up the Chinese market and fight against Chinese fans on a whim.In this league, the person he is least likely to provoke is Yao Ming, and he didn't even talk trash in this series.
On the one hand, he didn't face Yao Ming very much; on the other hand, he wasn't sure whether Yao Ming could understand the trash talk.
As expected before the game, the Lakers swept the Timberwolves without any effort in the first round and advanced to the next round first.
