Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 41 Into a hard fight
Zhou Yu just stumbled into a two-point running shot, and the Jazz's offense immediately started.

Stockton has the ball, Hornacek comes over to set a screen, Kobe just came to switch, Malone came over and set a screen.

This is the Jazz's continuous pick-and-roll tactic. If it fails once and then again, Stockton takes the opportunity to dribble to the baseline.

O'Neal rushed over to help defend, but missed Ostertag who was ambushing near the penalty area. Ostertag received a second pass from Stockton and immediately dunked with both hands.

"14:11", the Jazz expanded the point difference to three points.

For the next ball, the Lakers continued to play the "triangle offense" tactic, but Kobe and O'Neal were still restricted to death, and Zhou Yu, in addition to facing the "Big Pyrenees" marking, had to keep Stockton from sneaking over to break the ball. ball.

In desperation, he had no choice but to play a high position to support, and his teammates began to quickly intersperse and move.

But the Jazz is worthy of being a veteran team. They quickly saw through the Lakers' intentions and effectively delayed the running speed of the Lakers by blocking halfway.

Seeing that the 24-second attack time was running out, Zhou Yu was furious and decided to do it alone.

After a slight feint of breaking through with the ball, he immediately took a step back to open up the space, and the first shot was a quick three-pointer.

For this shot, Zhou Yu relied entirely on his touch, not to mention the haste of the shot, and he didn't even look at the basket at all.

After the crisp sound of "shua", the basketball actually went into the net hollowly. At the same time, the referee's whistle suddenly sounded.

Ostertag fouled the thug, and Zhou Yu had to add a free throw.

With Zhou Yu's steady free throw, the Lakers overtook the Jazz by one point at "15:14".

Zhou Yu succeeded in scoring four points this time, which greatly boosted the morale of the Lakers. The Great Western Forum immediately burst into cheers, and the words "Wang Zhizhi" were uniformly called out again.

"Senior Jabbar, do you think it is possible for Wang Zhizhi to break through 50 points in this game if he continues to play like this?"

Susan on the commentary seat rested her chin on her hand and asked with great interest.

"I don't think it matters how much an individual scores. It's important to lead the team to victory. At present, although the Lakers temporarily lead by one point, they still haven't played well. They still mainly rely on single-player scoring. On the other hand, the Jazz are more Most rely on the tacit cooperation between players to score."

Jabbar cleared his throat and analyzed rationally.

"I don't think so, as long as you can score goals, it doesn't matter which way, just like when you played on the court, many people think your shooting posture is not very beautiful, but you can score goals, this is a truth .”

Susan pursed her mouth and raised a different opinion.

Jabbar glanced at her with a black line on his face, but was speechless for a moment.

Susan was right. When he first used the "skyhook" to shoot, many people could not accept it. They thought his shooting posture was unsightly, and even the sword was slanted forward, so it was difficult to succeed.

It wasn't until his hook hit rate became higher and higher, and finally led the team to win the championship, that people's doubts and prejudices were gradually dispelled.

As the game continued, the Jazz relied on skilled pick-and-roll coordination, coupled with the tacit passing and running positions between teammates, and the offensive end was blooming inside and outside.

On the other hand, the Lakers rely more on personal ability. Whether it is high-position support or the "triangle offense", it is difficult to work, and there is a risk of mistakes.

Fortunately, O'Neal came back to form, facing Malone's tough defense, relying on flexible turns and inside footsteps to get some space, and then scored the ball with a sexy little hook.

What I have to say is that the "Small Hook Training Cheats" that Zhou Yu gave him can be regarded as saving him, otherwise he would probably be guarded by Ma Long's pair of invincible iron elbows today and lose his temper.

And Kobe also benefited a lot from Zhou Yu's gift of "Back and Turn Shooting Cheats". When the breakthrough was stuck, he relied on the back turn fake to shake his opponent away, and then scored in the mid-range shot.

As for Zhou Yu, since he scored that wonderful four-pointer, the Jazz quickly strengthened his defense and pinch defense, causing his shooting percentage to plummet.

At the end of the first quarter, the Jazz led the Lakers by two points at "30:28".

Although the scores of the two sides in the first quarter were close, the physical exertion was very different. Although Zhou Yu, Kobe, and O'Neal were young, they still consumed a lot of physical strength by fighting alone. Ten days, but a lot of energy was saved through tacit cooperation.

Therefore, in the second quarter of the game, Harris took the lead in replacing all the substitutes, while Jazz head coach Sloan still put the "three elders" on the court. I am very confident in my physical strength.

It's not like I don't know, I'm startled.The Lakers' substitute looked even more immature in front of the old hot Jazz. Not only was the defense line frequently penetrated, but the offensive end was also severely restricted. Only Eddie Jones could barely score a few points with his outstanding personal ability.

The second quarter lasted just over five minutes, and the Lakers trailed the Jazz by 34 points with "46:12".

Harris had to replace the main force again, while the "Three Jazz" were replaced by Sloan to rest.

Zhou Yu originally thought that dealing with these Jazz substitutes should be easy, but it turned out that he was wrong.Although the Jazz's substitute players are not as capable as the main players, their pick-and-roll awareness and overall tactical understanding are not bad at all.

Therefore, although the Lakers struggled to chase points, at the end of the second quarter, they were still 49 points behind the Jazz at "57:8".

The third quarter of the game seemed crucial. Harris called all the players together and said with a stern face:
"The third quarter is the watershed of this game. Everyone must be full of energy and recover the points behind as soon as possible. Since the overall tactics are difficult to play, then we should play some small-scale cooperation.

To be specific, Kersey and Van Exel formed a "sudden shooting combination". When Van Exel had a chance to break through, Kersey came over to block. Similarly, Kersey had a chance to shoot a three-pointer. , Van Exel blocked the defender.

Wang Zhizhi and Kobe formed a "high-speed combination". One of you took advantage of your height and the other took advantage of your speed to disrupt the Jazz's defense and then take the opportunity to score. Understand? "

"Understood, coach."

Zhou Yu and Kobe replied in unison.

"What about me, coach."

O'Neill, who was alone, raised his hand and asked.

"Your body is as strong as a cow, so you don't need the cooperation of your teammates. You just need to use your own tonnage to completely crush Malone to death, understand?"

Harris cleared his throat and explained.

"Well, I see, coach."

O'Neill responded in a low voice with some embarrassment.

"Coach, don't we have to have a core in the third quarter? Kobe, O'Neal, and Wang Zhizhi all open their hands together to control me for the ball. They completely confuse me. I don't even know how to pass the ball." Give it to someone."

Van Exel said with a tangled face.

"Well, you're right, it's time to determine a core."

Harris nodded, and then his sharp eyes wandered over the three of them, and finally, his eyes locked on Zhou Yu.

"Zhou Yu, you should be the core of this game. You have a flexible mind and a good view of the overall situation. It couldn't be more suitable."

Harris said to Zhou Yu with expectation in his eyes.

　Please don't begrudge the monthly pass and recommendation ticket in your hand, and vote for me a few appropriately, the code word is not easy.
