After two more rounds, Mohammed let Diop pack Yao Ming, the effect was good, Yao Ming divided the ball, and it was not too late for him to turn back to defend Diop, who had no shooting ability and could only hit the basket. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Marbury hit a three-pointer and Sprewell made a mid-range shot to close the gap to 24-22.

Yang Rui immediately made a substitution, and Iguodala came out to replace Diop, one big and four small. The Lakers turned into a hybrid defense, with four people breaking through and shooting from the outside, and Yao Ming himself was responsible for guarding the restricted area from the baseline.

The Lakers suddenly strengthened their defense on the outside, the Knicks players shot and hit the iron again and again, and Thomas's No. 4 position had a height and weight advantage, and the low-post offense was not good, and he couldn't beat Iguodala. Yao Ming grabbed 4 backcourt rebounds in a row.

On the offensive end, Iguodala pulled out to catch the ball and shoot, and in the counterattack, he held the ball past Thomas and broke through the dunk, scoring 4 points in a row.

In the last three minutes, the Knicks guarded Yao Ming, and Kobe Bryant took over the game, scoring on a mid-range shot, and then breaking through twice to make fouls, making 3 of 4 free throws.

At 1 minute, Kobe Bryant broke through to attract Muhammad to make up for the defense in the middle, assisted Yao's one-handed dunk, and the difference widened again.

In the last attack, Kobe Bryant pressed time on the periphery, and faced the "madman" in the middle of the three-point shot in zero seconds.

38-28, the Lakers took the lead on the road.

Zhang Lili exposed the statistics and couldn't believe his eyes: "Yao Ming played the first quarter full, cutting 20 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block, which is more than many people who score in the whole game, and several important data may break personal records." ”

Yu Jia smiled: "Yao Ming is holding his breath, he wants to prove himself in front of Larry Brown the most." I think now the Knicks can start thinking about firing Brown, but he has three years left on his contract, and the Knicks will lose a lot of money by doing so. ”

Yang Rui sent an attacking lineup in the second quarter, with William Williams, Ariza, Iguodala, Odom, and Rashid.

"When you get the chance, play a fast attack, try to complete an attack in 5 seconds, and increase the number of rounds. Block and dismantle in the middle of the positional battle, pay attention to the empty cut on the bottom line, and actively fight for the rebound in the front court. Defend...... You guys look at it, it's okay if you don't defend against a bad team like the Knicks, I don't blame you, I'm afraid they will lose too quickly. ”

Most of the players laughed. The two new assistant coaches, Brooks and Hollins, opened their mouths and used lightning to slash Luffy and found that Anilu seemed to be ......

Hollins asked Hornacek next to him, "Am I hallucinating?" Did he just say that it doesn't matter if you don't defend? ”

"Well, it's good that you get used to it, he often says this kind of unobtrusive words, don't you think the team's morale is stronger?" Hornacek laughed.

Brooks sighed: "It's not a good idea, but I do have a lot of confidence in winning the championship now. ”

The assistant coaches still feel this way, and the players' self-confidence is even more explosive. Yang Rui's words will not make them really give up defense, just reduce pressure.

In basketball, the more relaxed the player's mind, the easier it is to play well, which is the true meaning of happy basketball. When Yang Rui was with the Raptors, he was good at relieving pressure on players and allowing them to play boldly.

On the Knicks' side, Brown is the opposite, his way of coaching players is rigorous, like being a soldier in the barracks, what everyone should do, he has all arranged. For example, he asked Tim Thomas to shoot in the bottom left corner, and if he ran to the right, even if he did, Brown would not be happy because it was not "the right way to play." ”

Brown takes what he thinks is right as the truth, and he will try to convince others that anything that is different from his idea is incorrect and heretical in his opinion.

Well, in fact, he is a severe middle and second disease patient, this kind of coach is always in conflict with the stars and management and finally leaves, which is too normal.

In the second quarter, the Knicks exchanged Yao Ming for Medvidenko and Karim Rush, and they played a mess.

Last season, Medvidenko and Odom were teammates, but he moved slowly and couldn't defend Odom one-on-one, and he was often taught to be a man when the Lakers practiced on the team.

Rush has good physical fitness, his shooting has not been accurate, and after arriving at the Knicks, he was evaluated by Brown in training camp as "too lazy", and he had a bad reputation and a dark future. He couldn't get rid of Ariza and was disappointing.

Hardaway was also old, and was prevented from scoring by Iguodala, so he could only shoot at people and was seriously disturbed.

The Lakers played a quick counterattack, and the Knicks were at a disadvantage in bench speed.

Backup point guard Murch Norris is a defensive colander, which is why Larry Brown has a conflict with Marbury and must reuse him, and the No. 1 position doesn't even have a qualified bench.

After only 3 minutes of play, the margin widened to 22 points, and Larry Brown had to switch back to the bench early.

At this time, Hollins and Brooks felt that Yang Rui was magical, maybe he was really afraid that the Lakers would be too fierce on the bench and win too easily, so he said those words, and the big win would affect Yao Ming's data.

6 minutes later, Yang Rui replaced Yao Ming and Kobe Bryant to block and dismantle, this move Knicks couldn't prevent, Ben Wallace couldn't help it, didn't change Kobe, Kobe broke through or made a one-step stop-and-go jump shot. Switching to Kobe Bryant and distributing the ball to the middle, Yao Ming has no solution when he enters the basket, and he can also shoot in the middle.

In this quarter, Yao Ming shot 2 of 5, 4 of 4 free throws, got 8 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, and cut 28 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks in the half, which is the data of a super center.

Kobe Bryant made 6 of 11 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, and 5 of 6 free throws, scoring 18 points, 2 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 steal, and the statistics were not bad. The Lakers lead 71-45.

The Lakers players who were asked not to defend, the Knicks only scored 17 points in this quarter.

A team like the Knicks, which relies on outside players to score, has a hard time scoring as long as there are four swingmen on the court who rotate around at any time to interfere with the shot. This is caused by the interior players not being able to open up space, and Brown is directly responsible.

At halftime, Brown ran to the locker room to teach the players a lesson and taught them "to play the right game." "The main scorers Marbury and Sprewell were too lazy to talk, and the morale of the whole team was low.

Brown looked at the crowd and yelled at the players, he didn't want to lose at home by a big score.

His position in the team is precarious, and his boss already distrusted him last season.

He doesn't care how long he can coach the Knicks, he doesn't care about the annual salary, and now he cares most about his own face.

In the second half, the Knicks fielded the opening starters, the best team.

Yang Rui sent Jones, Hojberg, Dior, Cook, Yao Ming, and all the players in the 12-man squad played.

Yu Jia smiled: "Yao Ming brought four substitutes by himself, I really hope that the Knicks can recover some scores, if the entire second half is garbage time, then the game will be boring, Yao Ming will not play too long." He could have gotten 40+10 or even higher today, and Kobe Bryant's playing time was too short, only 18 minutes. ”

Zhang Li said: "I think Yang Rui is afraid of the injury of the starter, so he has reservations. He and Brown don't like each other, and the whole world knows that if Brown can't get angry, the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, arranges rough fouls and hurts people, the Lakers will lose a little bit. ”

Zhang's reasonable commentary made Chinese fans very happy in front of the TV, but some Kobe fans expressed their displeasure and hoped that their idols would continue to play. The U.S. team at the Olympics was rotten like that, and Brown was not seen jumping off the wall, and Yang Rui's worries seemed to be unnecessary.

Of course, the fans' worries are also unnecessary, how could Yang Rui be polite to Brown?

This lineup has three defensive leaks, and the Knicks don't plan to defend it......
