Chapter 1810 Become a Rebounding Monster Tonight

Fast break counterattack, the Lakers used the iconic Lakers fast break to score the first point of the opening game.

Fast break!

This is undoubtedly the Lakers' main tactic tonight!

"This is the iconic Lakers defensive counterattack. It is different from the Suns. The Lakers' fast break is usually initiated from the inside. It starts from the moment they grab the rebound. Whether it is Gasol or Bynum, most of the time It's Gasol. The first time he gets a rebound, he looks for someone to make a long pass. Usually it's Ji Feng or Kobe. If he can't find it, he passes it to the point guard. They have developed good skills in the past few seasons. His long passing skills rarely make mistakes.”

"Whether it is the defender or JK, any one of them will resolutely attack forward after getting the ball. In the end, the ball will definitely come to the hands of any one of JK. This kind of fast break counterattack has a very high success rate. This is also one of the characteristics of the Lakers. Big kill move."

Director Zhang explained in detail the Lakers' fast break counterattack tactics. To put it bluntly, this is an efficient defensive counterattack tactic. Regardless of JK's shooting, the fast break is so cool. The reason why the Lakers are so strong lies in their defense!

Relying on defense, limiting the opponent's offense, and catching transitions is different from the Suns, who were also famous for playing fast. The Suns were deliberately playing fast because their defense was average. Without defense, catching transitions became empty talk. , which is why they were never able to break through the Spurs during their peak period. It was not until a few years ago that they successfully defeated the Spurs and entered the Western Conference Finals after strengthening their defense. It was just a pity that Nash was no longer at his peak at that time, and the opposite Lakers tactics were better than They are more edgy.

But this is also fate. After all, the Lakers have confrontation, speed, propulsion ability and excellent finishing ability. Such people are hard to come by. I don’t know how much D’Antoni envies the Lakers for having such a group of players.

Nash once said in a first-tier program, "To a certain extent, the Lakers who play fast are the most terrifying Lakers. You may have some chances when playing in position, but no one can beat them if they play fast." Lakers.”

Such words coming from the mouth of the originator of running and bombing are still very convincing.

Of course, the Mavericks don't care about this. It's just a goal. It just doesn't feel good. Dirk will show off his touch sooner or later. What's more, they have a height advantage on the court. Even if they can't score, they still have a chance to rush. Grab offensive rebounds to create a second offensive opportunity!

Yes, this is Carlisle's arrangement for the Mavericks. The Lakers only have one high point in Gasol. At this time, if they don't seize the opportunity to find a second offensive opportunity, why are they waiting!

This is also a point that many people are worried about. Yu Jia said: "The Lakers seem to want to play fast. This is also the reason why they are ranked first and fourth, and it makes sense without hurting Bynum and Fisher, who are the slowest. But the biggest problem is actually rebounding. If we want to succeed in defensive counterattack, rebound protection is very important. Without rebounds, everything is in vain.”

Director Zhang also agreed: "It depends on how the Lakers deal with it. Opposite is a guy like Chandler who averages 9.3 rebounds per game."

In the second round, Dirk really found his touch. He pulled out, caught the ball after the pick-and-roll, and played Ji Feng in singles on the wing. Ji Feng was stuck in the position, but Dirk was not ready to force a breakthrough. He knew that he was too tall and could not handle his movement. The ball was mediocre, at least I didn't know how to pass it, so I just turned around and shot a jump shot.

Although Ji Feng blocked his eyes, Dirk still scored two points.

2-2.

But in turn, Dirk couldn't guard against Ji Feng. It was a natural mistake for Ji Feng to hit Dirk. Ji Feng got in in one step. Dirk couldn't keep up with him at all. He could only watch Ji Feng rush into the inside and attract Chan De. After Le blocked the shot, he assisted Gasol for a dunk.

Turning around, the ball couldn't reach Dirk. Kidd passed it to Marion. Marion failed to beat Artest in a single and shot. At this time, Carlisle shouted excitedly on the scene: "Rebound!"

Chandler and Dirk were also actively preparing to fight, but the ball bounced very strangely and was not at the basket, so someone got to the backboard faster than them!

Ji Feng!

When Marion took the shot, Ji Feng observed the trajectory of the ball in advance and blocked the backboard position in advance. Therefore, the rebound was easily collected by Ji Feng. Ji Feng threw it forward directly. Shannon Brown had already followed it. When Ji Feng received the long pass, there was no one in front of him.

Shannon Brown finally had a great dunk on the court, a 360-degree dunk that shocked the arena.

"Beautiful, another beautiful counterattack, this time faster than the last time, Ji Feng got the rebound and kept balling, Shannon Brown succeeded in a fast break dunk, and the Lakers led 4-2." Director Zhang said: "As long as we can keep it You can play like this with rebounds.”

Although the goal was scored, Director Zhang's doubts did not subside much. This goal was very lucky. Otherwise, Chandler, Dirk and Marion were just under the basket, and the Lakers only had Gasol. How could they steal it? ah.

However, in the subsequent games, Director Zhang's eyes grew bigger and bigger, because not only did what he was worried about not appear, but Ji Feng turned into a rebounding monster, constantly making waves in the paint!

It is recognized that Ji Feng can grab rebounds, but that is also in the third position. In the fourth position, he has to fight against guys who are taller and stronger than him. He does not have the advantage of being able to unexpectedly appear on the rebound. , it is still unknown whether they can grab it. Once it is exploded, the Lakers will be in danger. After all, the fault tolerance rate of this lineup is too low.

But Ji Feng showed his ability. Even in the fourth position, he is still a rebounding monster!

In the first few rounds, the Mavericks were hit by two consecutive counterattacks by the Lakers, which also made them pay more attention to the success rate. With Kidd's veteran suppression of the rhythm, the Mavericks made three consecutive attacks.

But the leader is still the Lakers, because the Lakers also played three times. This lineup has good defense and very good offense. All five players on the field have offensive capabilities, except Gasol, who can also shoot three-pointers.

It was Kobe's three-pointer and Artest's single that allowed the Lakers to maintain a 2-point lead.

In the fourth round, the Mavericks finally showed their flaws. Marion was interfered by Artest and missed the shot. Ji Feng once again rushed for the rebound and assisted Kobe Bryant to score on the fast break.

In the next round, inside Chandler assisted Kidd, who scored a three-pointer. It was Ji Feng who got the rebound. He assisted Kobe and scored two points!

With 4 rebounds in 6 minutes, Ji Feng showed off his rebounding strength.

The camera was currently focused on Ji Feng, who was smiling and high-fiving Kobe. There was a caption like a fan making trouble: "Hey, the little cowboys didn't expect it, I'm here to grab rebounds!"

Then, the Lakers position battle finally came to an end, but Ji Feng appeared again, took off the rebound in front of Dirk, and the second attack was successful. This ball made Carlisle furious. He couldn't grab the offensive rebound and lost the backcourt rebound. What a fart!

Throughout the first half, Ji Feng grabbed an incredible 12 rebounds, including 4 offensive rebounds. As a result, the Lakers led the Mavericks by 8 points 58-50!
