Chapter 791 Dark Tradition
There were a lot of people watching this game, and the TNT official website also played a special game preview video before the national live broadcast.

The Lakers are probably four people who appeared one by one, namely Kobe + Tang Qian + Gasol + Nash, intending to be the new four kings.What about the Spurs?It is No. [-] in the league, No. [-] in the Western Conference, firmly sitting at the top of the regular season, appearing as a challenger.This video is done very well, but the Spurs are not an era of GDP combination at all.Now San Antonio has already entered the era of comprehensive teams, which is also the peak of San Antonio's chemistry for more than ten years.

Unlike the "Double Virtues Era" in a few years, this time period, especially the Spurs this season, will be a team at the league's historical level.But they are usually too low-key, and this season there is not a particularly outstanding star in charge, so it is not surprising that they are ignored by people.Only when you look at the league record table, you will be surprised to find that the San Antonio native is No.1! ! !
The pinnacle of true team basketball, representing the team, is the Spurs in the 13-14 season.

Plus the ambition to avenge the Heat!This year's team is a low-key king.

The average point difference per game in the regular season is about 8+, which is a bit out of character.

And no one is the so-called best offensive point! ! !This is very important! ! !This Spurs team is a team where everyone has scoring ability and scoring confidence! ! !The degree to which the conduction ball flows freely has reached the level of explosion! ! !

Instead of relying on the penetration and conduction of the point guard, but the overall operation, the five people have a series of hands-on work...

Without Nash's comeback, it would be difficult for the Lakers to beat the Spurs in this game.

The depth of the lineup, the tacit understanding of the team, and the chemical reaction are just a few grades behind!

But the Lakers still have their own strengths, the most critical point, the ace core Kobe Bryant, known as the "Spurs nemesis" in his heyday.Playing the Spurs, very experienced, very sophisticated.

This is related to the overall defensive habits of the Spurs.Any team has its own offensive and defensive habits. If you say that you are changeable, versatile, and strong in execution, that cannot change this.No team has no dead ends, no general offensive and defensive habits.San Antonio's overall defensive habits have been as stable as a dime for almost 20 years.That is to let go and not let go, and to break it down is to compress inside shots. The middle and high positions basically seldom use double-team defense. Whether it is facing Kobe or James. ! ! !

This is especially critical! ! !

The Spurs are the team with the highest overall defensive quality and the best continuity after the league canceled Hand-checking, none of them.

It relies on excellent defensive traps.

Without Hand-checking, the defensive power of defensive traps is infinitely magnified, because the power of single defense is limited by the rules and greatly reduced.Man marking is almost the dumbest way to improve your overall defense.

Therefore, it is difficult for breakthrough stars to play comfortably against the Spurs.

It's not that you can't play the data, but it's awkward, which makes you out of touch with your usual habits and rhythm when playing on the court.

This will play a fatal role in the playoff contest.

Especially after the 21st century, the league canceled illegal defense and allowed zone defense, so off-ball double-teams and off-ball double-team positions began.This is also a natural favorable information for a team with high team attributes like the Spurs.In short, a stable team, in the NBA, is much more important than you think.

If the team is unstable, it is impossible for Duncan to play for so many years. It is more likely to be traded and exiled after the decline.

But with a stable team, Popovich can use his strengths to avoid weaknesses, give full play to Duncan's experience advantages, and reduce the display of personal abilities.

It's easy to say, but it's even more difficult to do. At least the Lakers don't have this tradition and luck.

Superstar basketball, no, it should be said to be superstar basketball, which is the tradition of the Los Angeles team.Without a particularly prominent superstar on the team, the Lakers would not be able to win the championship.

Players from both sides entered the court, facing the neat lineup of the Spurs, this is the first time the Lakers have faced this season.

The Spurs' starting lineup is Parker + Leonard + Green + Duncan + Splitter.

The Lakers are Kobe + Nash + Gasol + Tang Qian + Wesley Johnson.

It seems that the latter is of course superior in terms of star power, but the record proves that the Spurs are better than the Lakers, and this is a result of their frequent rounds and often incomplete lineups.At this point, the Lakers, no, it should be that no other team in the league can do it except the Spurs.

The 20-year stability can be reflected in this detail.

If the lineup is complete, it is natural to strengthen the strength. If the lineup is not complete, it will not be too weak, and it still has a good league competitiveness.

It is not unreasonable to say that Popovich is the best godfather in the league.

……

The Lakers had a secret meeting in the locker room.It's more like a ceremony than a meeting.The lights in the entire locker room were turned off, and only the voices of everyone could be heard.

This set was often played by the "Zen Master" back then, and the Bulls started it, and the Lakers did it superbly.Otherwise, with the staff structure of the Zijin Army back then, do you think it can be done with another person?This is not a tactical issue, it is entirely a spiritual issue.Jackson, he is the strongest in the league at this point, and there is no second person.

When he first joined the Bulls, Jackson played avant-garde in the locker room for the first time, playing an edited video called "Mysterious Warrior".Then, at the home court of the Bulls, there is a small room specially built with a variety of clan totems, so that players often come to do meditation work.To be honest, none of these are directly related on the basketball court, but... Kobe and Jordan both agree with this set, and even admire it very much.

Because if you do too much, you will know that what Jackson wants is not this rigid formalism, what he wants is to allow players to establish a spiritual connection.As for NBA players, they are highly mobile and have a lot of money in their pockets. It is difficult for them to establish a spiritual connection. Many people even just play games, and they have no connection with their teammates off the court.

Rodman said back then that he, Jordan and Pippen were not close off the court, and Jordan and Pippen were not good friends off the court.How to create an "iron triangle" in this relationship?Very simple, what Jackson did was to forcibly and artificially create or lead out this kind of spiritual connection. The "Zen Master" believes that as long as the spiritual connection between players is strengthened, the so-called team chemistry and chemical reactions will blow out in a short period of time.

In the end, it turned out that he made the right bet. In the future, Kerr will also use this method in the Warriors.

What Cole learned was not the triangle offense, but what Phil Jackson really possessed with "mysterious power".

Basketball is played by players, so as long as the players on the field are activated, then the greatest probability of success can be achieved.

In the Lakers locker room, everyone formed a circle. As the leader, No. 24 put his shoulders on Tang Qian Gasol and said: "I know everyone is full of doubts about our goals this season. .”

"I know there's a lot of doubt about where we're going to end up this season."

"I know that many people on this team may leave in the future."

"But please remember."

"At least this season we are one."

"And our goal this season is only one."

"I can tell everyone very clearly, that is to win the championship and win the Larry O'Brien Cup!"

"If we do."

"The Lakers this season will be a memory you will never forget."

"please remember."

"If you don't win, you lose."

"Our hearts, from this moment on, need to dance together."

"Tell me what our goal is???"

Kobe roared in the dark.

"Win the championship!"

"Tell me what our goal is???"

"Win the championship!"

"Tell me what our goal is???"

"Win the championship!!!"

"What are we???"

"The Lakers!!!"

"Okay!!! Come on everyone!!! Beat San Antonio!!!"

In the dark locker room, a fixed tradition will begin to form for the Lakers this season.

till the end.

PS: Try to explode tomorrow~~~
Xiao Zi will work hard~~~
