NBA: I just want to play soy sauce, you let me win the championship

Chapter 160 Advantages of High Fort

O'Neal was not transferred and continued to guard the basket.

As for the Kings, except for Pollard who came up to cover, the other 4 players were all sprinting towards the basket.

Fox was quickly blocked by Pollard at the edge of the penalty area. Bibby dribbled the ball and changed direction, cutting toward the basket. George, who was guarding Christie, immediately ran over to help defend Bibby.

While George was helping to defend Bibby, Christie made an emergency stop and ran back to the right corner.

After George posted himself, Bibby did not rush to pass the ball to Christie, but threw the basketball high back and passed it directly to Lu Yuanzhi from Fisher's head.

Lu Yuanzhi caught the basketball in one step inside the free throw line and rushed to the basket while observing the situation on the court.

Horry clung to Turkoglu's side, O'Neal stuck to the basket and couldn't get out, and Bibby was watched by George.

Pollard, huh?
Pollard followed Bibby's footsteps and ran close to the baseline.

Seeing this, Lu Yuanzhi didn't hesitate anymore. In order not to be disturbed when passing the ball, he jumped high and threw the ball to the right corner.

George saw the ball flying in the direction of Christie, turned around immediately, wanted to go back to defend, but bumped into Pollard's arms halfway.

It's Pollard again!
He actually had two cover missions in this tactic!

Christie leaped high, caught Lu Yuanzhi's impressively accurate pass with difficulty, made some adjustments, and then made a steady shot.

On the way, George, who had athletic ability, was intercepted by Pollard halfway. He could only open his mouth and watch Christie shoot the ball comfortably. Hierarch.

"brush!"

In such a comfortable shooting environment, it is impossible for Christie to miss the ball.

14 points!
The point difference came to 14 points again.

O'Neal scored a goal and after catching up with 2 points, he came to the Kings' offensive round again.

This time, it was still Bruce's tactics.

Lu Yuanzhi was the first to step up. This time Fisher grabbed the screen very timely and kept up with Bibby.

After Lu Yuanzhi finished the screen, he quickly pulled beyond the three-point line, Fox followed, and on the other side, Bibby continued to break forward with Fisher.

Pollard started again, ready to raise Bibby as a cover, but at this moment, Lu Yuanzhi, Turkoglu and Christie suddenly accelerated and rushed to the inside from outside the three-point line.

After Fisher was blocked by Pollard, Bibby dribbled and continued to rush towards the basket. This time, George failed to come over to help defend.

O'Neal, who was under the basket, couldn't help but sneer when he saw Bibby dribbling into the paint and three other Kings players also rushing inside.

Isn't it just a defender breaking points?

No matter how many points we have to distribute the ball, can we still break through the inside line guarded by Shaq?
But the next moment, O'Neill had a panicked look on his face.

what's the situation?
After Bibby dribbled into the basket, he had no desire to attack the basket. He came out from the other side.

Fisher thought that Bibby would encounter O'Neal's block after entering the inside, and did not follow him at all. Instead, he stopped in place to prevent Bibby from passing the ball back to Pollard.

After Lu Yuanzhi, Turkoglu and Christie entered the inside lane, they didn't stop at all. With the cover of the gathered Lakers defensive players and their own teammates, the three of them quickly exploded and ran in the same direction.

This time, the Lakers' defense was completely in disarray.

"Ah, what kind of tactic is this!"

On the TNT commentary stage, Buckley called out first.Why is there such a strange tactic? Everyone's cross-screens are all done under the basket.

"Be optimistic about Bibby!" Kenny Smith was the first to discover the Lakers' defensive loopholes. Bibby, who came out of the bottom line and returned to the horns, had no defensive players around him.

Horry, who followed Turkoglu to the inside, had rich experience. When the inside was in a mess, he keenly noticed that Fisher hadn't kept up with Bibby, so he hurried over to help defend.

But Bibby didn't panic at all. He held the ball and waited for half a second. The three people covering each other inside had already exploded. Lu Yuanzhi ran to the right corner beyond the three-point line, Christie ran to the left corner, and Turkoglu ran towards the top of the arc and beyond the three-point line.

The three of them actually exchanged positions.

The person following Christie became Fox, and the person following Lu Yuanzhi became George. Their defensive positions were not good. As long as Bibby passed the ball, Christie and Lu Yuanzhi both had good chances to take action.

But Bibby passed the ball to the top of the arc.

Turkoglu's empty!

After realizing it, Fisher hurriedly ran to interfere with Turkoglu's shot, but how could a 185-centimeter small guard block the 208-centimeter Turkoglu's shot?

Turkoglu's shot was hardly disturbed and he made it steadily.

15 points!
Here we go again!
O'Neal felt something was wrong, he was able to score 2 points at the basket on almost every possession, but in retrospect, the Kings were able to score 3 points again.

Is this still the basketball game I’m familiar with?

"Charles, the tactics of the Kings may not be the only ones we have seen!" On the commentary stand, Kenny Smith couldn't help but said to Barkley in a low voice after seeing the Kings' attack.

"Oh? Kenny, is there anything special? Isn't this just a mutual cover shooting tactic?"

"No, Charles, what you see now may just be a simplified version of this tactic."

"Simplified version? It's so complicated, is it just a simplified version?"

"Yes, if you think about it, if there are Webber, Stojakovic, Turkoglu, Max and Bibby standing on the field, then there will be more variants of this set of tactics."

"Webber and Max can attack the paint."

"Stojakovic, Turkoglu, Max, and Bibby all have three-point ability, and Webber also has outside shooting ability."

"If the Kings are fully staffed, their tactics will be more difficult to defend."

"But, Kenny, I don't understand. What's the point of this tactic? Why do you find it so difficult to defend?"

Barkley has always played superstar ball, that is, give him the ball and he will solve the problem. Therefore, he does not particularly understand this complicated coordination.

"The meaning is to make the best use of the strengths of the three outside players of the Kings." Smith's brows were all wrinkled.

"The specialty of outside players?" Barkley was even more difficult to understand.

"Well, the rest are all my guesses. After all, I have never encountered such a situation." Smith put a shield on himself first, so as not to be caught, "The three outside shooters of the Kings, Max, the injured Smith Tojakovic and Turkoglu, they are strikers like never before."

"There are three of them, two are 206 centimeters, and one is 208 centimeters. According to the traditional definition, they are three high forts."

"But these three high forts are different from the traditional high forts. They also have good athletic ability."

"And this set of tactics is to give full play to their greatest advantage!"
