After the game, basketball experts analyzed the reasons for the Lakers' loss. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Many people believe that the Lakers' only advantage is O'Neal, and other positions are inferior to the Raptors, including Kobe.

The current Kobe Bryant has not yet reached his peak, and his scoring mainly relies on the face frame to break through, and the shot selection is relatively poor. The Raptors' swing man position is the strongest in the league, and Kobe Bryant is difficult to play under the encirclement of many people.

ESPN columnist Nicholas said: Judging from the data, the Raptors will definitely win the championship this season, and the suspense is only a few games.

The article pointed out that the Lakers' journey to the finals was difficult, averaging 97.3 points per game in the first three series, conceding 96.1 points and winning by only 1.2 points.

In the playoffs, only three Lakers averaged double-doubles per game, the offensive point was too concentrated, and Rice only scored 13.2 points, which shows that the Lakers' offense is not very strong, and it all depends on the stars.

The Lakers shot 46.5 percent from the field and 34.9 percent from three-point range, while limiting opponents to 43.6 percent from the field and 36.1 percent from three-point range. This means that the Lakers' three-point defense is a weakness, and shooting three-pointers happens to be the Raptors' strong point, and they are miserably restrained.

In addition, the Lakers rely too much on O'Neal to be inseparable from him on both offensive and defensive ends. He averaged 43.5 minutes per game in the playoffs and didn't have a qualified center bench. Once O'Neal gets tired, the Lakers' defensive intensity plummets.

I understand that there are still a lot of people, and the strength of the Lakers this season is not too strong, even if they break through in the West, there is a big fluke element in winning the Trail Blazers. If Dunleavy replaces Sabonis early in the seventh game and strengthens the defense of outside shooting, or the Trail Blazers have a point guard who is more than 185cm tall and can switch to block and dismantle, it will be enough for the Lakers.

In the third game, the Lakers have no way out.

They fought continuously, and the first two games of the "OK combination" played for a long time, and in order to ensure their status, Jackson did not arrange training on the 10th, but for one day, the Lakers players still couldn't rest.

The Raptors' tactics returned to the old way of the first game, at the beginning of Willis, Cato, and Jerome took turns to cut the shark, O'Neal could shoot near the restricted area, and wanted to get close to the basket and dunk immediately.

O'Neal showed a surprising sense of free throw shooting in the first quarter, shooting 3-of-12 from the field and shooting just 25 percent from the field.

If it weren't for Rice's return to form, shooting two three-pointers and one mid-range shot, the Lakers would have been finished in the first quarter at home. The score was 31-23, and the Lakers were behind.

The Raptors scored the most points, with two three-pointers and two layups, scoring 10 points and stealing Kobe Bryant's fast-break performance.

Zhang Li sighed: "Christie almost didn't score in the first two games, and even he opened it today, and if the Lakers want to win, it's hard to compare." ”

In the second quarter, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant did not rest, and Yang Rui also increased the playing time of the core, sending Hornacek, Maddy, Carter, Jumaine, and Miller.

Miller didn't need to foul tactics, and O'Neal began to exert his power, scoring consecutive points and scoring 23 points and 6 rebounds in the half.

Maddy also found an offensive touch, scoring 13 points and 2 assists in a single quarter with a burst shot, and the Raptors went into the second half 58-48.

Yang Rui sent the strongest offensive lineup in the third quarter, Miller, O'Neal Jr., Carter, Maddy, Billups, and at the same time used shark slashing tactics, the positional battle ruthlessly cleaned up the Lakers.

Carter is not in good shape, and Maddie, O'Neal Jr., and Miller are back on their feet. Yang Rui did not have a fixed arrangement of who would be the main attacker, and whoever felt good would shoot more.

Miller hit one three-pointer and two mid-range shots to score seven points; O'Neal Jr. scored three goals in the low post, and made a misplaced layup in the counterattack to make Bryan Shaw foul and scored 2+1, 9 points and 5 rebounds in a single quarter; Maddie turned on the all-around warrior mode, delivering 6 points and 5 assists in the first quarter.

The score opened again, and O'Neal still made poor free throws in this quarter, shooting 4 of 10 and 7 of 22 in the third quarter, which is equivalent to his 11 offensive opportunities to score 7 points, which is very inefficient.

O'Neill said in an interview that he is not afraid of the shark slashing tactic, this tactic is useless, in fact, it is a hard mouth, the statistics speak for itself, and if you want to deal with him, you have to foul.

In the last quarter, the angry Kobe Bryant made more shots, and the Raptors did not cover the clamps, strictly guarding against the outside three-pointers, and defending Kobe Bryant alone.

Bryant, who finally got a heads-up opportunity, hit a personal high shooting percentage in the series, shooting 14 of 27, missing a three-point shot, and 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 32 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists.

O'Neal shot 13-of-25 from the field and 8-of-24 from the free-throw line to finish with 34 points, 12 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks.

Rice also scored 16 points and 4 assists, and the Trident's play still couldn't help the Lakers win, and no one else scored a double-double.

On the Raptors side, O'Neal Jr. had 26 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks, Maddy had 28 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, Christie and Carter scored 18 and 19 points respectively, and the whole team scored double-doubles and won another game 126-108.

The Raptors shot 17-of-37 from three-point range, while the Lakers shot just 4-of-12 from three-point range.

This time, all the Lakers supporters are desperate, the two stars combined for 66 points, and the shooting rate is above 50%, and they can't win, what else can beat the Raptors? Trailing 0-3, there is no precedent for a reversal in the NBA.

Only Yang Rui was not surprised by the result, he usually arranged tactics, which was to practice with the peak playing style of these people in his previous life, and helped them find the right path in advance. With five potential stars, plus excellent role players and powerful veterans, is there any reason not to win against a team like the Lakers with only three firepower points?

If the Raptors can't beat the Lakers, he, the coach, should just pull it out and shoot him.

After the game, the players celebrated in the dressing room and everyone felt like they were winning.

At the press conference, Yang Rui was once again in the spotlight.

"Jerry, the Raptors have a number of players who are free agents in the summer, do you think they can keep a full roster in the summer?"

Yang Rui smiled: "I hope it can, but it's about everyone's choice, it's not for me to decide, and the summer will naturally know the result." ”

The reporter asked, "Do you think the Raptors will sweep the Lakers?" ”

"It doesn't matter, winning the championship is enough for us to have a good summer."

Game 4 continued in Los Angeles, with David Stern at home, the championship trophy was here, and they even had an awards rehearsal, and everyone thought the Lakers were finished.

The Lakers, who had their backs to the water, let O'Neal storm the interior at the beginning.

Yang Rui simply suspected that the fat man had taken stimulants. He turned around to the middle and hooked his hand, or turned to the bottom line to hit the board and threw it, and the big ass pouted Willis twice and dunked, but he couldn't pull it.

Maddie also has an excellent performance on the offensive end, and Hubble can't defend one-on-one.

Yang Rui asked Maddy to be the starting point guard, and he had an amazing hand in practice, and he made a good jumper. Once Maddie finds the feel, just one trick makes many people helpless.

In the second quarter, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant did not rest, ready to play the whole game.

The Raptors also have a rotation, with Billups, Christie, and Carter partnering on the outside, and Detreff and Cato on the inside. Yang Rui firmly believes that it is better to ensure efficiency by allowing players to rest properly, rather than playing from start to finish.

Both coaches didn't like to call a timeout, and by the time of the official timeout, the Raptors trailed by one point 37-38.

Yang Rui replaced Miller and Maddy, and replaced Christie and Cato. Detreve was in good shape because he hit a three-pointer and continued to play on the court.

These two played together, the defense and dismantling will be worse, the ability to withdraw and run the ball is super strong, Yang Rui bet that Kobe Bryant will not find a block and dismantle, and directly singled out Maddie.

The current Kobe doesn't like to play blocking and dismantling, it is when the second middle school disease is at its worst, he can't force it if he doesn't like others, and he is very stubborn. Just like Yang Rui's previous life, in 2001, Kobe Bryant was able to break with his family for ten years in order to marry Vanessa, and he did not hesitate.

Yang Rui arranged the tactics and said: "Brad waited for opportunities in the middle and responded to the pass, Detreve covered Chauncy on the side and helped him run to attract defense, and Tracy and Vince moved on the right side. Tracy can play alone with the ball, watch his teammates run without being able to watch them go, and pass through Vince if he cuts through the air. ”

Carter's three-pointers from the right corner are also good, and he and Christie have the advantage of being able to cut in the air and grasp the timing freely.
