Chapter 1541

The Lakers quickly made adjustments. After all, it was the defending champion, not the cover, and the head coach also quickly made fine-tuning.But there is one thing that Larry Brown has overlooked in this place, that is, the Lakers have played too many singles for Tang Qian during this period, so now they suddenly have to restart the team... Everyone has not yet Find the rhythm of the offense.

Coupled with the 74 wins, everyone is physically tired, and the outside world expects too much from them, so the Lakers suddenly stumbled a bit when they played against the wind.Why is it necessary to change lanes after the All-Star Game to enter the playoffs?The joint bones are here, and the state of a team cannot be entered all at once.This is basically impossible, so a space and time for overall adjustment and overall lane change are needed.Now the Lakers have been working hard for Tang Qian's first regular season MVP because of the last two months of the season. They did it with one heart and one mind, and the result was perfect.But there is a problem... the Lakers' own team play has been affected to a certain extent.Everyone hasn't played as a team or as a team for several months, and they suddenly start to enter the state all of a sudden, and they are a little at a loss.Difficult to adapt to.

Not to mention the start of the playoffs in one breath, the Lakers as a whole did not adjust much in the first half.

What Larry Brown was worried about finally happened. This problem is a problem of the immediate status of the team. This kind of problem is invisible and intangible on paper.It is necessary for the head coach to grasp the speed and heat... Larry Brown is not unaware, but his original intention is that after losing a game, he will carry out strict education... But the problem is that the last few months of the Lakers team He's never lost a game.This... how to do it?
So Larry Brown himself also miscalculated.

The Lakers' winning streak in the last wave of the regular season disrupted his own coaching rhythm.

Now there is no time for the Lakers to take it easy, and directly shift to the playoffs mode, or if it doesn't work, it will do.Of course, the strength and background of the Lakers team are still there. Last year, they swept all the way and won the championship invincibly.Therefore, there is basically no shortage of tacit understanding and experience in the competition. You just need to give some time to adjust and adjust, and you can slow down.

But it won't be so fast. The Trail Blazers seized the opportunity and started to attack, trying to challenge the Lakers.

In the TNT live broadcast room, Barkley said: The Lakers played very bluntly in this game. This is the playoffs, but I have not seen the Lakers enter the playoffs mode so far in this game.They're still playing with a regular-season feel.This is very disadvantageous.If the playoffs are played like this, it is not impossible to overturn the gutter.

Kenny Smith also said: I agree with your point of view. The playoffs are the playoffs. The star stability is certain, but it also needs the second scoring point, the third scoring point, or even the fourth and fifth scoring points to stand out.This is the playoffs. If only one person wants to win, Jordan can't do it even when he comes.

They said it very precisely that the playoffs are different from the regular season. They need more teams and star moments.

But there is no conflict between the two, because the so-called star moments are stalemates and critical games, and the team provides support as a whole.In the regular season, you may be able to handle most of it with one star.But in the playoffs, that doesn't work.The typical example is the future ascension to the gods. The regular season exploded, as if for a while, invincible. As a result, in the playoffs, when the average shot per game was 24+, all the statistics showed a big decline.

Even the true shooting percentage has slipped to a more normal level.

This is the difference between the regular season and the playoffs, so it is said that the regular season needs more teams and stars. These two things do not conflict, but complement each other.The Lakers are playing a little bit wrong now. Passing the ball to the inside is greatly disturbed. Tang Qian still wants the ball desperately.The head coach wants to make some adjustments and play more team basketball. As a result...the team now has some discomfort with "emergency acceleration" and "emergency turning" because there is no "lane change process".

The Trail Blazers were too prepared. Lillard and Evan Kanter covered and broke through to kill. After McCrum and Kanter covered the pick-and-roll, they directly pulled Randall. Randall took a step slower. Just pull it out.Brush ~ also go in.And if the Lakers want to come over to attack or assist in defense, the opponent will adopt a "two guns singled out" strategy.Whoever is defended will give another singles.

It seems a very simple tactical routine, and the Lakers should guard against it.After all, the Lakers' defense is recognized as the top in the league.There are even more presidents in the history of the league.Such a defensive team, with a strong defensive player, how can it be said that they can't stop the Blazers' simple style of play?Don't tell me, although the Blazers played simple, but tonight, their "two guns in the backcourt" Lillard + McCrum both felt so good.Look at this ball, Rondo defended Lillard alone, and Lillard forcibly ate several of them! ! !

This, Rondo himself felt a little unbelievable.

Although my defensive state has declined compared to last season, my defensive level can still be maintained. How could you overthrow me so easily?Rondo didn't believe in evil, and then he was directed by Li to make a three-pointer through his head.

Brush ~ clean and neat into the net.

This ball is not a chance ball, it is entirely the personal ability of Director Li. Lillard has averaged 27+ points per game this season. Do you really think he is a little scum?He's just not very eye-catching, and his topicality is average, so this is somewhat ignored by everyone.In fact, in terms of personal ability, especially personal scoring ability, Lillard is very strong.

And he is still in the playoffs, once he enters the state, he will be unstoppable.

Larry Brown didn't blame Rondo for these few balls, because in Larry Brown's own view, these balls had no problem with defense at all.There are even a few balls, which are considered to be relatively good defensively, but the opponent just shot them in. In this case, as the head coach, there is no need to be harsh.After all, basketball is not football. It is impossible to say that you can really defend to the point where the opponent can't shoot a single ball or hit it.

Lillard feels good and is in good shape this time, and Rondo is so fierce in singles, there is no way around it.

Once a single point of defense cannot defend people, then the team system can only be used to help defend. This is a common practice on the basketball court.Not Larry. Brown will do this.But what made Larry Brown speechless was that he had strengthened the defensive arrangement against Lillard, made a help defense and a double delay, and as a result, another gun of the Trail Blazers also started to fire.

The firepower was still extremely fierce, and his single defender Butler was also a little speechless.

This guy, tonight, is so fierce?So many difficult balls, just shot in? ? ?

Isn't he just averaging 23 points per game this season?Why is it so powerful? ? ?Are you a bit overwhelmed?
Yes, it's a pity, in the history of the original time and space, tonight was one of the strongest battles of his playoff career, scoring 40+, combined with Lillard's key ball output, two people, just these two people In the first game of the playoffs, he scored nearly 80 points.The Lakers haven't entered the state tonight. The opponent's success in targeting, coupled with the star's eye-catching outside performance, the Trail Blazers have maintained a consistent lead on the scene.

How many people did not expect this situation before?
Under normal circumstances, the Trail Blazers should not be able to beat the Lakers, but basketball is round. Your Lakers are out of form tonight, and our stars are both exploding. Tell me, under the ebb and flow, you What else can I do?

Still rely on paper strength to decide the outcome?I think too much.

And tonight the Lakers couldn't guard against people, so it happened that they reached the third quarter, but the Trail Blazers took the lead.

Barkley said: If the Lakers lose this game, they deserve it, no wonder others.

Kenny Smith also echoed: The playoffs are the playoffs, no matter how strong you are, you can't take it lightly.If the Trail Blazers can win this game, it will greatly improve the team's self-confidence in the series.Then this round of the series will be a bit interesting.

Domestic Weiping Don Bryant also said: I think Larry Brown should make less adjustments. The overall state of the Lakers does not seem to be particularly good now. Too many adjustments will make the team a little more difficult. turn the tide.

Anyway, each has its own opinion, and the specifics depend on how the two teams play themselves.
