Yao Ming was rested, and Chinese fans were generally dissatisfied. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He's only been fighting for a while, why did he change it? He still hasn't got a penny, what about the data?
Stars are the most attractive to fans, and watching stars play luxury statistics is a great pleasure in the NBA, and many Chinese fans are looking forward to Yao Ming's performance against the Knicks, hoping that the Lakers will not be able to do without Yao Ming.
As a result, the Lakers' defensive intensity has increased significantly, and the players have ensured the speed of returning and changing defenses.
The scene was very awkward at one point.
Zhang explained reasonably: "Yao Ming is not all-round, he is very difficult to position O'Neal Jr., Xiao O's speed is too fast, he plays like a defender, and Rashid is better at defending him." ā
Yu Jia said: "O'Neal Jr. is one of the Raptors Big Three brought out by Yang Rui, fans will not be unfamiliar, in the past two years, he is like the team boss than Marbury, and when he was in the Trail Blazers, the boss was Rashid, and the two have similar styles." ā
Similar players beat each other, and O'Neill Jr. was defended.
The Lakers' defensive tactics were changed to man-to-man, Kobe Bryant mainly defended Nash, and was not afraid of misplacement after encountering the block, and Jones mainly defended 3D player Ragabel, which did not become an obvious loophole.
However, the Suns still have a way to score, Hill and Marion also have good offensive power, and Nash's passing is unguardable, scoring 7 points and 7 assists in a single quarter, revitalizing the whole team.
The Lakers trailed by eight points 27-35 to end the first quarter, and Bryant personally scored 13 points and two assists.
In the second quarter, Yang Rui sent Mo Williams, Hojborg, Ariza, Odom, and Yao Ming.
Suns Five: Barbosa, Jacobson, Jim Jackson, Marion, Steven Hunter.
The biggest weakness of the Suns is the backup center Hunter, who is 213cm tall and weighs 100 kilograms, he has good physical fitness, excellent bounce, and fast speed, but poor confrontation. After being drafted in the first round 15 in 2001, he joined the Magic as a bench player for three years, averaging a maximum of 13 minutes per game, 3.9 points and 2.8 rebounds. After joining the Suns, he continued to serve as a bench.
Yang Rui's tactics were simple, Mo Williams was responsible for hanging the ball to Yao Ming in the low post on the side, and formed a triangle with the three of Hojberg. Yao Ming held the ball in the low post and singled, attracting the bag to split the ball to both sides and shoot three points to the guard.
If Williams doesn't have a direct shot, he can dribble the ball from the right side 70 degrees to the middle and play with Odom. Odom received the ball in the middle and didn't have a chance to organize in the middle.
This lineup has two points of organization, three people who can attack with the ball, Ariza's task is the easiest, 70 degrees on the left side to open up and wait for opportunities, quickly return to defense, so that the Suns are not so easy to play counterattacks, focusing on Jim Jackson, a swingman who is good at shooting three-pointers.
Mo Williams has a general sense of passing, and it can still be completed by fixing the pass to the inside, and seeing the opportunity to hang to Yao Ming, Yao Ming leaned on Hunter twice and entered the penalty area, shook his left shoulder lightly, half-turned to the middle and made a slight pause, and then turned quickly to the bottom line, took a big step with his right foot, and relied on Hunter to hit the cricket ball with one hand.
29-35, Yao Ming scored his first two points of the game.
His steps may not be called fantastic, but his skills are simple and effective, and his basic skills are solid, and he can explode 80% of the league's interior lines.
The Suns attacked, Huntea went out to cover Barbossa and was released on the perimeter, and Yao Ming and Mo Williams wrapped up Barbossa. Yang Rui replaced Xiao Mo in advance, also for the second quarter, Jones will have a hard time preventing Barbossa from breaking through.
Barbossa split the ball down the middle, Hunter didn't shoot, and waited for Jackson to run for it. The score is all based on the dunk, and the outside ball doesn't care at all.
Jackson has to be guarded, he played star stats as a young man and is one of the Mavericks' 3J combinations. His self-confidence is very strong, and he dares to take responsibility after joining the Suns, but he has the same style of play as in the past, and his physical fitness is not as good as before.
He knew that Ariza was a second-round rookie, so he felt that it was not a big deal, ignored the opponent's height and arm span, changed direction with the ball to a stop-and-go jump shot, and shot without getting rid of it, which was directly blocked by Ariza.
Ariza was also faster after landing, bending down to pick up the basketball and passing it to nearby Mo Williams, slowing down the pace and waiting for Yao Ming to settle down.
Yang Rui specially instructed Xiao Mo off the field that he must not play fast attack, and he must wait for Yao Ming's success rate. Barbosa is known as the "Brazilian Lightning" and is the fastest in the game and can ensure the speed of the defense. Marion made a cameo appearance in the No. 4 position, which was also faster than Odom.
Xiao Mo took the ball to the right side, shook a little space in the face of Barbosa, and handed it to Yao Ming, who was 45 degrees low.
Yao Ming leaned his back against Hunter, quickly turned to the baseline, jumped up, and scored with both hands dunk. 31 to 35.
Yu Jia said with a smile: "In the past two years, there have always been people who say that Yao Ming is playing soft, and this season he has not only shown his skills and shooting, but also showed toughness. He may suffer against O'Neal Yao, but he can hit the basket against the average weight inside, including Ben Wallace. ā
Zhang Li smiled: "It is impossible for Ben to win the best defensive player this season. ā
Big Ben is like Draymond Green who has no offensive ability, this season's Knicks lineup has changed, the outside defense is a mess, even though Big Ben's blocks and rebounding data are not bad, but looking at the overall defensive data, who will vote for him?
The Suns attacked, and the Lakers defended together, encircling the restricted area.
Barbosa doesn't have Nash's passing sense, he's a point guard-height shooting guard who often plays with Nash. He singled out Mo Williams, changed direction with consecutive crotch dribbles, and successfully broke through on the right side. Odom contracted and joined Yao Ming in the box to pack Barbosa near the penalty area.
Barbosa couldn't get the ball into the right place and passed it to Marion in the bottom right corner.
Marion made a three-point shot in an empty position, and the weird "throwing hot yam" posture was ineffective, and the mid-range shot was better, and the three-point shot was not very sure. He really made a lot of three-point shots, averaging 4.2 shots per game, and in order to cooperate with the coach's tactics, he forcibly developed in the direction of 3D.
The ball was deflected, and Yao Ming was stuck in position to protect the rebounding ball in the backcourt.
The Lakers fell into the positional battle again, or passed to Yao Ming, he received the ball in the low post and turned to the middle, leaned on Hunter to jump up and throw his right hand missed, after the ball popped up, Yao Ming relied on his height advantage to grab the rebound in the front court, took a step forward, and dunked the basketball with one hand through Hunter. 33 to 35.
D'Antoni felt threatened, but he couldn't adjust, the Suns won by small-ball tactics, lacking meat shields, they can win 8 in a row, but they haven't met O'Neal's Heat, Yao Ming's bench advantage is also obvious.
O'Neal Jr.'s efficiency began to decline after playing more than 35 minutes, and there should have been a substitute for a while, but unfortunately Hunter was not qualified. O'Neal Jr.'s cameo as a center forward has pros and cons, with tonnage at a loss and speed at the advantage. If he is allowed to resist others, his physical strength will be consumed very quickly.
The Suns attacked, Barbosa passed the ball to Jackson for a single, and the latter faced Ariza with a pull-up jumper, dodging the block and missing, and Yao Ming grabbed the rebound.
In the Lakers positional battle, Yao Ming received the ball in the low post on the right side and hit it with his back inside. His basic skills were practiced in China, even if he rarely played like this in the Knicks for two years, his steps were still neat.
Barbosa let go of Mo Williams to assist in the defense, wanting to wait for an opportunity to steal and create pressure on Yao Ming. Yao Ming saw Barbosa and passed the ball out of the periphery in time, Mo Williams made a 70-degree jumper for three points, and Barbossa flashed out and interfered with the shot half a beat slower.
Mo Williams was well prepared and the ball hollowed into the net. 36 to 35.
The Lakers played a wave of 9-0 under the leadership of Yao Ming to overtake the score, and D'Antoni asked for a timeout!
