Chapter 1955 Cosmos Brave... See you in May
But Cole's tactic didn't just end there. Tang Qian discovered the problem when he continued the game.

In order to prevent himself from making a move, he directly chose to cut himself to solve the problem. In this way, the Los Angeles Lakers would not be able to launch the Westbrook blitz.After all, if you want to activate this, cut it directly, it will be useless no matter how fast you Westbrook runs.This is the tactic Steve Kerr made.Not only has it strengthened its own low-post defense, but it has also directly obliterated the attacking methods of the Los Angeles Lakers.

Want to use Westbrook blitz to kill our big insider?Yes, it was indeed a good idea. With so many big men around, it was really hard to resist.But what if... you can't run at all?Is this completely different?Did you suddenly feel like you were being beaten?Cole finally smiled on the side, his arms still crossed in front of his chest, as if he was watching a good show.

And it is a good show directed by himself.

I have been stepped on by you Los Angeles Lakers for so many years, did I finally wait for me to stand up? ? ?Do you really think that I, Steve Kerr, are just idlers?After so many years, even if you can't be counted?What I've been waiting for is now.

The Lakers are indeed in a big crisis, because free throws have become a huge problem.If you can't make the penalty, you will completely let the opponent attack and become a passive situation.This is too bad, and the opponent seems to have practiced this lineup specifically.The main thing is the pick-and-roll cover. The three big men take turns to make meat walls, giving Curry and Durant the opportunity to take the ball and the space to shoot.This is troublesome, these three people block too deadly, after all, the area is placed there, and Bogut was originally a pick-and-roll strongman, Cousins ​​is also good, McGee just eats his physical talent, 7 feet of stature After all, it is not fake.The Lakers can only defend with all their strength, trying to reduce the opponent's shooting percentage.

In fact, this method is very stupid, and it is easy to break it, because the opponent's current attack is also simplified, and the main problem is solved by the giant planet.Since it's falling into position to hit a giant planet, no matter how high the hit rate is, that's it.If there is no outbreak, it is considered very good to maintain more than 4%.After all, they still mainly shoot from long distances, and as we all know, singles with the ball is the least efficient offensive method.If you don't eat the team's configuration, it is absolutely impossible to get high.

Of course, if you become a superstar, it is a special case and it is not counted in the normal case.

In addition, the Lakers are trying their best to defend, so even if the number of pick-and-rolls is large and the quality is high, it will have an impact.Although it is impossible to rely on defense to win as in the first decade of the 21st century.But it will definitely not be bad.Even in this era, Larry Brown has requirements for the team's defense.It cannot be compared with the top defensive teams in history, the rules have changed, and the style of the league has changed. He admits this, but even so, under this restriction, he still needs the team to be the top few defensive players in basketball in this era. .

Because of the impact of the general environment, we can no longer be the top in history, but we must also be the top of the time.

The old man still has his own obsessions.

So the defense of the Lakers is not bad. In fact, the defensive efficiency of this season is the first in the league.That's because they were too strong before, and they were compared to themselves.If it is only placed in the league this season, it is still the strongest defensive team in active service.There is nothing wrong with this.But even if you stop a few opponents, your own offensive problem still cannot be solved.This is the root of the problem.

You don't score in basketball, how do you win? ? ?No matter how good the defense is, can it keep the opponent from scoring?
So even though the Warriors are playing a lot of singles now, the Lakers are also defending very hard, but because of their weak scoring, they still can't change the fact that the score difference has been overtaken and slowly opened.Seeing this, even Tang Qian himself felt a little pissed off.

But playing basketball is not about fighting. There are many rules. If someone just chops you up and makes you go to the free throw line, what can you do?
If you have the ability, you can be punished, right?How simple.

And Cole is also betting that the Lakers' No. 29 will not make free throws tonight.As long as it's below average, it's fine.And tonight it seems that God also heard his prayers. Tang Qian's free throw percentage so far is only close to 6%, which is less than 6%.And as long as this time is a little longer, even if he has recovered his free throw percentage, he can still make a penalty of over 3%, which is still [-]%.After all, I can't catch up.

The point is, Cole also expected that the more opponents fail to make free throws, the more unstable their mentality will be, and the more unstable, the more it will affect subsequent free throws.In fact, Cole has done this kind of gamble before, and he also overturned the car. The outside world also sprayed him as stupid and ridiculous, and he gave the Lakers a head with his own strength.Remember how the ball overturned?Cole's judgment was fine, but he underestimated Tang Qian's 2+1 ability.That is what O'Neill said, I am not allowed free throws but I can still get 2 points.This is the first time to bet on a car rollover, and the second time is that Tang Qian felt really good at free throws that day, so he played it off again.But apart from helplessness in Cole's answer, you will find that he has no intention of admitting his mistakes at all.

In short, that is to say, he thinks that there is nothing wrong with what he does.

In this kind of high-end duel, some gambling and luck are needed. If the bet happens to be wrong, it is only wrong, and it does not mean that it is wrong to do so.Cole's original words at the press conference were, maybe next time, I will do this again.

He knew very well that if Tang Qian wasn't as accurate as the free throw that night, and if he could solve the problem of No. 29's 2+1 basket, then everything he did would have the opposite result.Cole's inner self-construction is very powerful.This point is completely inherited from the Zen master's way, if you don't think it's your fault, if it's just bad luck, if you think you can win by doing this.Then...no need to change!
This is what the Zen master told him, and he has learned it all his life.

Obviously, this time, luck and gambling were not on the side of the Los Angeles Lakers and Tang Qian.

Tang Qian began to hit the iron frequently. Fortunately, at this time, Ingram and George made strong three-pointers, which prevented the score difference from being completely opened up.Then entered the last 2 minutes of the fourth quarter, which is the key point for the Lakers to come back.At least Tang Qian and the coaching staff of the Lakers think so. When this time comes, you can no longer foul off the ball, and if you get the ball for Tang Qian, then there is a possibility of hitting 2+1!In this way, the situation will be reversed as before!
Tang Qian is also patient, just waiting for this moment!He forced his position, got to a deep place, and then opened his hands for the ball.Now any fool can see that the number 29 is already a little bit angry, but the expected explosion...hasn't come.Because of this move, Cole had already expected it.Otherwise, what do you think the purpose of replacing the three big guys is going up?Is it simply to increase rebound rate and increase the quality of screens?
NO~ There is another big consideration, that is, now, the tyrant is easy to foul without the ball, but what about when he cannot foul without the ball?How to do this? ? ?If this problem is not solved well, it is still possible to overturn the car.Therefore, Cole's replacement of the three-tower lineup played a decisive role here.Isn't it difficult for you tyrant to stop fouls by himself?Isn't it possible to break in forcibly even if it is violated?Well, can we be two big guys?

Oh, are you going to be tough? ? ?Are you going to explode? ? ?Okay, let's see what other tricks you can come up with with the three of them? ? ?

Under the siege and encroachment of the Three Towers, Tang Qian finally couldn't achieve "even if he didn't rely on free throws to score 2 points" here.Three big men around seven feet, two of them are heavy centers, this is really not a joke.As long as you are still a human being, it is impossible for you to go against the sky.If they defend normally, you still have a chance to break in. If they simply want to pull you down and forcefully invade, then I'm sorry.There is no way you can exist.

The only way is if you make free throws well, then others won't dare.This is the best way to answer it, but it's a pity that Tang Qian can't do it now.He lacks this solution.

As a result, the Los Angeles Lakers fell into an inescapable vortex. With the last wave of free throws, No. 29 could not play 2+1 as before.So, it was defeated by the Golden State Warriors.This also gave the Los Angeles Lakers their sixth loss of the season.At the same time, the Golden State Warriors' own wins have increased to 6 wins and 71 losses.In theory, they still have a chance to tie with the Lakers.If they win the remaining 8 games, they can get 3 wins. If the Lakers lose all of them, they will only have 74 wins.At least there is still the possibility of a final record counter-kill.If that's the case, then this game will determine the final direction.

And the Warriors won this game, which also changed the record of the two teams throughout the season to a 2-2 tie.If the score is small, they can steadily surpass the Los Angeles Lakers.Because the Lakers didn't win much against them, but when they played against the Lakers, they won by more points in a single game.Although Tang Qian scored a super stat of 40+20+26+5 in this ball, but because of the loss, he missed more than 20 free throws. In the end, the team can only swallow it with regret. Bitter fruit.

For Tang Qian himself, if there is no winning data, it is meaningless.It doesn't give him any good mood at all.After the game, you can see that Tang Qian had a dark face throughout the press conference, and few people in the Lakers dared to show a smile.The first half went well, but they were counter-killed, and everyone felt a little depressed.On the other side, the Warriors are completely different. Cole can finally be arrogant for a while, and loudly said the sassy words he had prepared a long time ago:

I just want to tell everyone that the Los Angeles Lakers are not invincible in this era, they can actually be defeated.

Like last year, we just lost to luck.It doesn't mean we are really inferior to them.

But luck will not always be with a certain person or a certain team.After all, it's our turn in Oakland, the Bay Area.

Durant can finally say something with a straight chest: I have already said that we are stronger.

And it seems that tonight, he got the stats of 40+4+4+2, so he can finally "combat" with netizens on the Internet without having to log in to the trumpet.He won the game tonight and performed well, so he must be a big player.

But fortunately, the playoffs are coming soon. The grievances between the Lakers and the Warriors don't have to wait too long. In the playoffs, there is still a chance to make a final settlement.So Tang Qian could only keep a cold face in the end, and said:
See you in May.

Any day in May is naturally the day when the Western Conference finals will start. It is self-evident what this means.

We are tied in the regular season, so let's have another showdown in the playoffs.

It may also be the last time to see who is the king of the west.

Why do you say it is the king of the west?Not the king of the league?Because these days, the king of the west is equivalent to the king of the alliance.You don't really think that apart from injuries, the East has a chance to beat the West, do you?The Lakers Clippers Warriors, these three Galaxy battleships alone are almost incomprehensible.Unless there is a contest at the same level, the downgrade is basically one-sided.

Tang Qian looked up and remembered his words in his heart. In May, I will send you home again with my own hands.

No, I didn't go home this time, I'm afraid this time, I personally... sent you to disband.

Enjoy now.

PS: The addition has arrived, and the playoffs will soon~~~~
Come on, come on, get excited, everyone~~~~~~~~
