Chapter 1260 Small record, the lowest score in the regular season this season
It is said that the Bulls are more lucky, but the Lakers feel relatively average in this game, and many opportunities are inexplicably missed.Of course, the so-called luck also has two sides. As the old saying goes, misfortune is where good fortune rests, and good fortune is where misfortune lies. Sometimes you don’t even know whether the situation you are facing is good luck or bad luck. .

In fact, there is nothing wrong with the Lakers' style of play during this period. Taking advantage of the fact that the Bulls are now playing too many singles, they have some defensive counterattacks + tactical routines.This happens to be the right call for the Bulls right now.However, basketball is round, and sometimes the correct decision may not necessarily achieve the desired effect.For example, right now, the Lakers' tactical routines VS the Bulls' simple singles, there must be much more shooting opportunities and shooting space.The Bulls are not a strong defensive team this season. Without Thibodeau leading the team, the average loss per game has already exceeded 100 points.This kind of defense is not too difficult to play.

However, the feeling is not very good tonight. Many balls use what Director Zhang said in the live broadcast room of Tianchao Sports Station:
This ball is a chance, ouch~, this is too short, what a pity.

This shot is reasonable, it should have been scored, uh, it didn’t even go in, XXX needs to practice his shooting.

Tang Qian made a shot, chance, he must have scored the goal, um, almost, but it’s just like this, let’s take a look at the lottery.

So, it's really not that the Lakers didn't play well, they didn't play well, or it just didn't feel good tonight.Fortunately, the Bulls have too many singles offensively, and they are all seriously interfered by the Lakers and defended in place, so the shooting rate is even lower.It's also a low shooting percentage. You can't see it by looking at the data, but you can tell by watching the game. The Lakers just really don't feel very good. The Bulls are completely opposite, they just can't score.

These are two completely different "low hit rate states".

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led 15-10 by 5 points, but this still made the head coach of the Lakers a little dissatisfied.His personality is not that of a "Zen master". After speaking directly, he asked the substitute to play better.But the substitute didn't play very well either, because Pierce was a bit unwell, and he didn't play in this game, because Nick Young did more alone.It's a pity that "Yang Shaoxia" was watched by the opponent tonight. Doug McDermott of the Bulls watched him, and Doug McDermott was also very smart in this game, just using his body against Nick Yang hit, he was bigger than Nick Young in terms of tonnage, and his body was much stronger. In addition, he was in good form tonight, so Nick Young actually fell into foul trouble.After not playing for a few minutes, he was forced to rest.

Without Nick Young, the Lakers' ability to score independently off the bench has been greatly reduced.

Naturally, Larry Brown was very dissatisfied with this matter, and immediately lashed out at Nick Young, telling Nick Young not to be fooled around by his opponent, but to play smarter.If not, pass the ball out.In fact, saying this is tantamount to saying it for nothing, "Yang Shaoxia" was a person who Kobe could not pass the ball back then, how could he pass the ball easily?Right.That doesn't fit his personality.So letting him play as a substitute is to let him shoot. After all, he has the skills of facial shots and top shots, which are very precious in the bench.

When Tang Qian played again, he found that the opponent had overtaken the score, 25-29. According to Larry Brown's arrangement, Tang Qian asked for the ball inside to attract the ball, and then divided the ball tactically. After receiving the ball, Yi Jianlian immediately made a second pass. The basketball is in the hands of Josh Smith.Josh Smith's three-pointer...missed.

Tang Qian caught this offensive rebound, was violated by a strong kick from the basket, went to the free throw line, and made 2 of 0 free throws.

Tonight, it seems that Tang Qian's own free throws are also average. He made 8 free throws and only made 2, which is unlucky enough.

There's no way around this. It seems that no one on the Lakers team is not strong tonight. In this situation, they can only fight defensively.Simply the Lakers' defense is still very strong, there is no doubt about this.Now as long as the Bulls play Rose, the Lakers will play Butler. Butler didn't feel very good tonight, but he still scored a lot of points with free throws by relying on hard shots and physical contact.Anyway, this score is more than Rose.Rose didn't score 3 tonight, which is really embarrassing.

I really don't know what to say to score 3 points after playing for so long.

Rose can't even remember when he was like this last time, but there is still time, as long as he reverses it in the later time.Anyway, many games are played badly in the front, and it's ok to redeem later.The vast majority of fans still only look at the final result.

The Bulls' Rose has a lot of personal offenses, and the effect is very poor. The Lakers have a lot of tactical transmission, and the opportunities are good. Well, the effect is also very poor.If you don't enter, isn't the effect bad?Seeing this ball, the commentators at the Staples Center are a little bit sweating:

"Well defended, it was a chance, nice pass, the ball...missed."

"Good pass. The ball was a beautiful pass from inside to outside, and it went directly to the bottom line. Farmar made a three-pointer, and the ball was right~3..." Then the voice stopped abruptly.

But you look at such a good opportunity, and you feel embarrassed if you don't pass it, so the Lakers played a very exciting tactical routine tonight, but it's a pity that they were a little bit "strength" in the end.This is really "worried to death" for Lakers fans who watch the game on TV and mobile phones.

Exclamation words such as ouch~ ouch~ oh my god~ emerge in endlessly.

At the end of the first half, the Lakers were still 1 point behind their opponents, 33-34, which is really low enough.In the last shot, Rose touched the underpants of "Goddess of Luck", and even made a super long buzzer close to the middle circle.I really don't know what to say.Seeing Rose's airy expression, Tang Qian comforted Butler, wanting to keep him from being affected.Who would have thought that Butler would be ruthless instead, staring at No. 1 of the Bulls and saying, "I'll make sure he doesn't score in double figures tonight!"

"must!!!"

When Tang Qian saw this, he didn't say much, because with this aura and fighting spirit, he didn't need to comfort him at all.This kind of player is really good, with strong mental toughness and ability, and he can barely be called a combination of offense and defense.What else is there to complain about?I really don't know why the Bulls don't like him so much.In fact, it was because Tang Qian subdued him. Otherwise, what kind of personality do you think Butler has?He works hard, plays hard, and trains hard, but he is also... definitely a big thorn.

If the boss can't hold him down, he won't be able to sit still, and will often "force the palace" and "rebel".

After the halftime break, the two sides played again at Staples. I have to say that Rose’s halftime buzzer had some effect. The Bulls took the lead and entered the locker room, and their morale was relatively high. high.

In the second half, Larry Brown didn't want to bear it anymore, because he also discovered that the overall feel of the Lakers was not good tonight. There are always a few times.At this time, you should no longer expect to defeat your opponent with offense. No matter how good the opportunity is, it is difficult to make a shot.If you can't vote in it, it's tantamount to no use.

Sure enough, as soon as the hand feels bad, there are no tactics and open shots. It's better to be honest, do a good job of defense and use defense to win.Seeing that the Lakers had 3 more chances to fly, Larry Brown called a timeout, and when someone came down, Larry Brown replaced Robert Covington at the 4th position.This means that the Lakers will expand overall.Similar to the Warriors' Five Deaths, this is a killer move.Then the old man took the tactical board and said: "Later, play the low post and the inside, hot, you reduce the pass, and play yourself when you have the opportunity. Do you have any questions?"

If it was like this from the beginning, some people may think that Larry Brown is too dependent on Tang Qian.But it's already the third quarter, the Lakers' offense has not improved, and most people feel bad, so no one has the slightest objection to the head coach's arrangement.Tang Qian also nodded. He just thought that everyone had a good chance and the pass should be passed. Since the head coach asked him to do so, he was obliged to do so.

"You remember, fight more, now you need to fight yourself. It's hot." Larry Brown looked at Tang Qian and emphasized again.

"Don't worry, sir, I will. Although the opponent's inside defense is very good, I can still beat it." Tang Qian's words really sounded plain, but in fact they were very unusual.Even though the Bulls have now changed their head coach and their defensive system has collapsed, their inside line is still very strong.Noah + Gasol, are you serious?This combination was once the strongest inside combination in the East.James has suffered a lot.

Tang Qian is not in the state of "god descending to earth" now, so he will naturally be affected to a certain extent.However, that doesn't mean he can't fight.Most of his previous attacks were air cuts and down attacks, and the destructive power was not high. This time, after Larry Brown asked Tang Qian to attack by himself, the attack method would definitely change.As we all know, air cuts and rolls are the easiest offensive methods to be contained as the defensive intensity increases. Even if you are the Warriors, it is the same. Otherwise, they would have won consecutive championships. What else would Durant need? .The only one that really broke this boundary was the "Metaphysical Spurs" in 2014.Of course, the Lakers can't reach it.So Larry Brown decisively asked the Lakers No. 29 to adopt a self-tackling style of play to break the game.

Singles is the least popular and inefficient scoring method in a downwind game, but when entering a headwind game and attacking a tough game, the situation changes rapidly and is completely different.At that time, it was singles, the most powerful and most capable of crushing opponents.Fans who watch a little more football must be deeply touched by this point.The Warriors made the best interpretation.With Durant, the super singles point and the super end point, the final shortcomings have been filled in. In an instant, no one can beat him in the NBA.

That’s what I said. For example, James in 2018, when the team found it difficult to break through the defense in the playoffs, didn’t he adopt a "Joko-style" style of play?why.Isn't it because this method is the most effective and can help the team defeat the opponent.Now Larry Brown of the Lakers wants Tang Qian to do this.

Don't cut, don't roll, don't go to the pick-and-roll support, just ask for the ball and do it alone.

Tang Qian understood and began to execute.

Because Tang Qian hadn't asked for the ball in singles before, the Bulls didn't react immediately. Tang Qian passed Noah with the ball, and then easily shot to the basket to score.The Bulls passed an inside ball, but it was intercepted when it came in.That's right, after switching to a super unlimited defensive lineup, the overall defensive speed of the Lakers has become extremely fast, defensive steals, and passing line interference have all risen to a higher level in an instant.The Bulls were careless, and Rondo passed the ball slowly, and after all the players settled down, he directly gave the ball to the low post.Tang Qian hit again, pushed Noah hard, and then scored on his head against the latter.

brush~score~
In position singles, most of the players are pulled away or fixed. Although there is an element of "four people watching a show", sometimes, this "playing mode" is needed.Because they are all pulled apart, and what they fight for is one-on-one ability.This is also a major role of the star when it cannot be opened.The Bulls played an outside pass and cut, and after pulling away, they gave Gasol a sudden point, allowing Gasol to attack directly.Holding high and hitting high is one of the best technical moves for a low-post big hit.Gasol has always been a first-class figure in this regard.I remember that even Zhang, the "tie Yaomi", couldn't help admiring Gasol's inside offensive habits, basically holding high and not giving the little guy a chance to cut the ball.On this point, Yao Ming did not do particularly well.

Although Covington said that he is 206cm tall and has a wingspan of about 217~218cm, Gasol is 7 feet tall and has good low-post offensive skills.In addition, the wingspan has reached the historical top of the inside line, as long as 230CM, and the tonnage is much larger than that of Covington.Besides, he is not tough enough, and that is relative to inside players, it will not be too difficult to deal with a player like Covington who is still a little bit biased towards the outside.

In the end, the low position is still the world of the tall, and the territory of the tall.

There are not many teams still playing the Twin Towers, and the Bulls are one of them, so Covington is a bit at a disadvantage defending the ball.But Covington still gritted his teeth and defended. He was preparing to delay the Spaniard to the maximum, and then let...

"Paul did a good job on this ball. He was in a very good position and played high. This made Covington a little bit inherently disadvantaged."

"Paul's low-post offense is very threatening unless it encounters a particularly tough inside line. We were deeply impressed by this at the time. It was too difficult for Covington to defend him in the low post."

It can be seen that the Lakers are still very nostalgic here, and the on-site commentator still calls Gasol by his first name instead of his last name.In the end, he was the hero who won the championship. He has won 3 championships with the Lakers. As the most humane teams in the league, the Lakers have done a very good job in this regard, which is heart-warming.However, they all underestimated Covington. Covington knew that it would be difficult for him to defend against the opponent's low-post offense, so he directly made a tactical defense.He just tried to create confrontation, slowing down Gasol's shooting speed and action speed, and finally...

"oh~ a big hat from the defense~Blk~~~ from our tyrant hot~~~~~~~~~"

After Tang Qiangai flew the ball, he patted Covington on the back and said, "Good job, keep it up."

Covington nodded happily and excitedly. After all, he was praised as the number one center in the league. This position is definitely not light.What is his status now?Naturally, there should be some inner agitation.The defensive end worked harder.

The Lakers passed the ball low, and this time the Bulls helped defend early. Tang Qian quickly caught the ball and sent it out, then immediately flew to another angle, hit his back, and started asking for the ball again.Rondo also quickly passed it in. Tang Qian caught the ball and turned around to play, causing a defensive foul by the Bulls.2 free throws.

This is what Cole said before, Tang Qian's progress and adaptability, he combined the characteristics of the space insider + giant center forward, so that breaking the defense and double-teaming has become an additional method, simple and effective .But most people can't use it, because either they don't have Tang Qian's current tonnage and strength, or they have it, but they don't have enough foot movement and ball ability.In addition, the chief outside point guard of the Lakers is the multi-time NBA assist king Rondo. These conditions are combined together to make Tang Qian's technical move just now.Successfully produced damage.

Made 2 of 1 free throws, the Bulls held the ball and wanted to use the pick-and-roll to get a shot and disrupt the Lakers' defensive formation.Well, the idea is good, but when it was implemented, it suddenly became clear that the Lakers were not fooled at all.Or, there is already a way to wait to deal with him.You want to use strong side pick-and-rolls, directly rely on Rose to kill the inside, and shoot + score by yourself.At the same time, on the strong side, the Bulls' flanks also pulled away the Lakers' flank defenders, clearing the offensive space for Rose.Although Fred Hoiberg is a pure rookie coach, he is not a fool. He still knows that the execution of tactics requires overall cooperation.At least it requires the cooperation of many people to be most effective.It's a pity, it's a pity, the Lakers used the defensive delay + the weak side to suddenly assist the defense, so that Rose fell into a strong defensive circle all of a sudden.If this was an ordinary team and an ordinary defensive player, Rose might have passed by as soon as he gritted his teeth, but who are the Lakers now?Are you free to say it and let it go, or say it suddenly?Ariza who switched defenses + Covington who came from the weak side restricted Rose tightly. Rose had lost the maximum impact speed of the ball, and he was not the peak Rose anymore, so he had no choice but to pass the ball out.

Then the ball was disturbed by the rest of the Lakers reaching out, and finally hit the Bulls receiver's arm and went straight out of bounds.

The low-post Tang Qian forced the ball again. Although it was a bit of a disappointment, I still have to say that it was too light for Noah to defend Tang Qian.Noah is less than 240 pounds, which is to maintain the speed to adapt to the league's current style of play.But when such a tonnage meets Tang Qian, it's just four words, and he retreats steadily.Being squeezed by Tang Qian, he could hardly stand on his feet.Not to mention causing disturbance and trouble, it is barely enough not to stagger and fall.Otherwise, why does O'Neill think that he can average 40-50 points per game in Hyundai?Bragging for sure, but there's nothing wrong with playing the low post more easily than when he was playing.Look at O'Neal playing the inside line in the Eastern Conference at that time, how did the finals be devastated?That efficiency is really hard for Jordan to match.Too easy and too lethal.

Tang Qian broke Noah's top defense by forcing his position. At this time, Gasol of the Bulls was too slow to help defend. The No. 29 of the Lakers had already made an impact and took off. A physical confrontation knocked Gasol away. Just one-handed heavy buckle.Boom~Successful dunk~additional free throw~
Noah has actually started to decline sharply this season, averaging only 4+8+3+1 per game.The hit rate is even more eye-catching, only more than 3%.A center with a shooting percentage of more than 3% is really no one else.In addition, the defense has shown a downward trend since last year, and this year is even more obvious. It is already difficult to lock the opponent.Noah like this is no longer a Noah at the defense level, and it is more than easy to deal with.It's simply killing.

After Tang Qian started his individual singles, he quickly turned the situation around, and the Bulls' No. 5 position couldn't stop him at all.

Without Gasol's defense, it would have been difficult for him to accomplish anything by himself.

Seeing the Lakers overtake again, Rose was ready to come out as a "savior", and started high singles when he asked for the ball. As a result, he still didn't score under Butler's defense.The Lakers got the ball and gave it to Tang Qian. Tang Qian saw that Gasol was assisting the defense quickly, so he immediately divided the ball. Unfortunately, Covington failed to make the ball, but it didn't matter. Tang Qian abruptly pulled out the Bulls inside He rose from the ground and got this offensive rebound.The second offense caused Gasol's thug foul.

Going to the free throw line, this time he made 2 of 2 free throws, and the Lakers gradually regained the lead.

The Bulls still played Rose singles. Gasol wanted the ball and Rose turned a blind eye. Rose forced a charge against Butler, but his speed and explosive power were weaker. In the offensive and defensive battle with Butler, it instantly stood out.

Another miss!

The Lakers' home commentator Bill McDonald joked with a smile: There are no roses at Staples tonight.

"I said, you are slow now, you have long lost the strength of the past." After Butler defended the ball, he looked at Rose and said something, and then went to the frontcourt unhurriedly.Anyway, the Lakers play at a slow pace, and he is not in a hurry.

Rose was completely irritated, and he started to shoot aggressively, refusing to listen to anyone's persuasion. Naturally, playing like this would get worse and worse, making the Bulls lose the possibility of winning.In this quarter, the Lakers only allowed the Bulls to score a total of 6 points!The Lakers defense in the third quarter is a classic!However, because the Lakers themselves rely on Tang Qian's singles offense, the leading points are only within single digits.This allowed the fourth quarter to appear logically, and the main players of the two sides continued to fight each other.

Tang Qian seized the opportunity and scored 14 points again in a single quarter, which is not too much, but it is already more than half of the Lakers' 21 points in the fourth quarter.Such a score would look a bit ordinary in a normal game, but tonight, it was not like that at all.Tonight, the Bulls only scored 13 points in the fourth quarter, not as good as Tang Qian alone.This is because the overall situation of the Lakers has been settled in the end, and they made a few shots to get in.

The Bulls scored a total of 53 points in the game!God, the team's lowest score in a single game so far this year's regular season has appeared.Among them, 19 points in the second half tied the NBA's record for the lowest team scoring in the second half.In this game, the Bulls were mainly because Rose shot too much and played too badly at this point, exceeding 25+ shots, and the result was not 10 points, only 9 points.2 points in the second half is also surprising.In fact, Rose had a chance to make Butler break his promise, but he made 4 of 0 free throws in the second half, which is no wonder.I can only admit it myself.Butler only scored 11 points in this game, but he only used 5 shots, plus 4 free throws, plus the contribution of the defensive end, it is said that there is no problem in completely suppressing Rose.

And this, the Lakers have allowed the opponent team to score less than 70 points in several consecutive games.

This time, there were only more than 50 points.

Finally, slowly, everyone felt that this slow-paced team was not the slow-paced team of the Bulls and Grizzlies before. Their defense was really strong.Must be taken seriously.

However, the good show is yet to come.Larry Brown has a small ambition and wish that he has never told anyone about, that is...
