Only trailed by 3 points in the first quarter, which was still the result of the late force in the case of an unfavorable start, which means that Qiao Hai's adjustment in the second half was very effective.
So in the second quarter, Qiao Hai didn't make any more adjustments.
However, Rick Adelman made adjustments, the Kings team, once in a good situation, no team is their opponent, it is obvious that the King is in a good situation in the first half of the first quarter, but in the second half, Qiao Hai's change of position defense directly suppressed the King.
Rick Adelman naturally does not want to see this kind of suppression, he still wants to regain the initiative.
In the second quarter, the Kings replaced backup center Scott Pollard, Croatian rookie Pejastojakovic also replaced Vernon Maxwell, sixth man Chris Williamson replaced Abduwahad, leaving white chocolate Jason Williams and Chris Webber, and the Kings had a strong rotation lineup.
Qiao Hai was well aware of this, so in the second quarter, the Lakers only made a small rotation.
Sean Lukes replaced O'Neal, Tyronn Lue replaced Derrick Fisher, and Joe Hay kept Scott Pippen, Kobe Bryant and Horry to use a regular rotation to deal with the Kings' strong rotation.
Seeing the rotation lineup of the Kings, Qiao Hai directly asked Sean Lukes to deal with Chris Webber, and the other positions returned to normal defensive alignment.
Chris Webber was subjected to specialized man-marking, and his play was naturally limited, but fortunately, the Kings' style of play in the second quarter was biased to the outside, and Chris Williamson and Peja could both play.
The two teams played more anxiously in the second quarter, and Kobe Bryant broke out on the Lakers' side, scoring consecutive points, although he was only 20 years old, but under the appropriate tactical system, Kobe Bryant had begun to show his strong individual ability.
Under Qiao Hai's training, Kobe's total rating has also increased rapidly, and it has now reached 87 points, close to 90 points.
According to the stratification of the system, below 90 points are ordinary stars, and above 90 points are superstars.
Now Kobe Bryant can only be regarded as an ordinary star, but he is not far from a superstar.
An ordinary star, put it on some bad teams is the star of the house, and it is normal to occasionally stand up and lead the team to win, not to mention that there is a bonus of triangle tactics in the Lakers, and Scott Pippen and Shaquille O'Neal share the pressure, Kobe Bryant naturally played well, and his confidence has also come up.
On the King's side, although Peja is only a rookie, he has played professional basketball in Europe for several years, and he also won the MVP of the Greek league.
In this game, Peja had a few small runs that were excellent and he was also quite dangerous when he caught the ball.
Coupled with the fact that Joe was rookie Tyronn Lue in the second quarter, Jason Williams got room to play and scored back-to-back points.
The two teams were tied in the first half of the second quarter, and when the timeout came, the Kings switched back to Divac, and Joe didn't think much about it, letting O'Neal replay, Sean Lukes's strength was still a little worse, and the defense of Webb was not effective.
After the readjustment, the Lakers were blocked by the Kings......
"Tell Vlad to make him foul Shaq off the ball."
Rick Adelman thought of that interesting and simple tactic and ordered it directly.
Then, there was a helpless scene on the field.
The Lakers just sent the ball in the backcourt, and in the frontcourt, Vlad Divac made a move and pulled O'Neal, the referee blew the whistle, and O'Neal was stunned and climbed to the free throw line.
"Haha, China Qiao covered his face, he just made an adjustment, replaced with Shaq, and the king directly sacrificed the shark cutting tactic, you know, the founder of the shark cutting tactic is Qiao Hai, he is self-inflicted."
With a bang, O'Neal missed the first free throw, and Qiao Hai already had the idea of replacing O'Neal.
However, the second penalty was hit, Qiao Hai thought about it and was ready to wait and see.
After all, Shaq has just appeared, and it is a little inappropriate to replace him immediately.
But this wait-and-see directly allowed the king to regain the advantage on the court, with the help of continuous shark cutting tactics, the king directly led the Lakers by 8 points, until Qiao Hai replaced O'Neal, the Lakers regained the initiative, but the halftime deficit was inevitable.
In this way, at halftime, the Lakers trailed the Kings by 8 points.
The 8-point difference is not big, and Qiao Hai is not in a hurry.
But O'Neal's performance in the second half of the quarter gave Bradturner a solid mouth again.
"Look, Shak's performance is not good, now free throws have become his lifeline, at critical moments, the Lakers can't rely on Shaq, I don't think there is anything wrong with my original report, but China Joe is making a big fuss, I have to say, he is too young, he will only act recklessly, one day, he will know the lesson."
O'Neal's free throw problem was well known to the world in later generations, and Qiao Hai had no solution to it, but in the third quarter, Qiao Hai still sent O'Neal.
It's not that Qiao Hai is obsessed, but Qiao Hai knows that the shark slashing tactic will not work at the beginning of each quarter, because the number of fouls has not been accumulated, and off-ball fouls will only add fouls to the king.
So at the beginning of the third quarter, O'Neal was still available.
Brad Turner, like a new fan who doesn't understand football, saw O'Neal playing, and shouted directly: "Shaq actually played again, I don't understand Qiao Hai's thoughts anymore, does he really care about the outcome of this game?" ”
"I have to say that the results of Qiao Hai's team are really good, but many times, his youthful flaws have been exposed in front of everyone, such as now."
But soon Bradturner was slapped in the face, and after O'Neal came out, he accumulated the power of the second quarter and threw it out directly, and the interior was full of abuse frames, and the King couldn't stop O'Neal's impact at all.
Because of the shark slashing tactics in the first half, Vlad Divac was directly hit with five fouls in the third quarter, and O'Neal scored 10 points in less than seven minutes, directly helping the Lakers chase back the first half of the trail.
Bradturner could only be in a daze, unable to say a word.
On Lao Mei's network, some people soon began to discuss the game, and many fans began to ridicule Brad Turner's commentary.
First floor: "Brad Turner really doesn't understand the ball, can anyone tell me why he's an NBA expert?" ”
Second floor: "Haha, I actually questioned Shaq, isn't Shaq really a big shark?" ”
Third floor: "I have to say, Shaq's free throw problem is still very serious, I think Bradturner has a point, the Lakers must pay attention to this problem." ”
Fourth floor: "On the third floor, you also surf the Internet?" ”
……
In the second half of the third quarter, seeing that the number of fouls had accumulated enough, Qiao Hai did not hesitate and directly replaced O'Neal.
Replace Bruce Bowen with a lineup of one big and four small to attack the King's Princeton tactics.
