NBA: I really just want to be a second-in-command

Chapter 103 [Golden Generation Showdown]

The game in the fourth quarter lasted to the last 4 minutes.

The two sides reached a 100 tie!
The atmosphere at the Staples Center reached a crescendo.

Everyone knows that the game has entered the most critical moment!
During this period, the Lakers' offense almost mainly relied on Lu Yusheng and Kobe.

The reason why Lu Yusheng was able to make the shot was because the Sonics still chose to make the shot when they were defending him.

And when Lu Yusheng didn't have an open space here, Kobe would handle it, relying on his super personal offensive ability to score.

As for the Sonics, although they can't limit Kobe defensively, their three-point tactics can still be played.

This is entirely due to the slowness and loopholes of the two big brothers Odom and Bynum on the defensive end.

In fact, if these guys hadn't gone to the nightclub to mess around last night, the Sonics would have surrendered by now.

But there is no way, after all, no one can restrict the players' spare time.

Under such circumstances, Kobe and Ray Allen became the focus of the court.

On this side, Kobe used his unsolvable offensive skills to attack Ray Allen alone. On the other side, Ray Allen used his teammates' cover moves to get rid of Kobe's defense, and he could immediately return one.

The two sides came and went, not giving up an inch, pushing the atmosphere of Staples to a climax.

Everyone likes this kind of game where the stars of both sides compete on the field!
"I think all the fans who paid attention to today's game probably didn't expect that the Lakers and the Sonics played so anxiously." Standall said with emotion.

"Yeah, it is completely different from the pre-match predictions of our colleagues. The two sides have dedicated a very exciting game for us."

Mark Jackson said, "This is also the reason why I never want to make pre-match predictions, because this is the NBA, you can't underestimate any team, they all have huge potential and may explode at any time, so, less than It's very difficult to predict the outcome of a game at the last moment of the game."

Standall smiled, "Mark, then I won't ask you to make predictions in the future. There are still 4 minutes left in this game. Come and make predictions for us."

"Of course it is possible. In fact, at this stage of the game, I believe everyone can see that the two sides are almost familiar with each other's tactics. After a whole game of games and adjustments, they have also found the best way to deal with it. "

"In this case, until the last moment of the game, there are only two things that can determine the outcome of the game."

"What is it?" Standall asked.

"First, defense." Mark Jackson said, "Whoever can increase the defensive intensity at the last moment and limit the opponent's offensive rhythm will gain an advantage. Second, the star's personal ability contest."

Standall nodded, "That's right, and when it comes to the stars of both sides, Kobe and Ray Allen, both of them are actually stars that I personally admire. As the golden generation in 96, they have been in the league since entering the league. They're all fighting each other."

"Yes, I like them both very much. Although their personalities and styles of play are completely different, they are both two positions, so they will always be compared."

"Mark, who do you think is stronger? Analyze it purely from the perspective of an NBA player." Standall laughed.

Mark Jackson laughed, "Hey, Doyle, you're making me offend their fans."

"You only said that you don't make game predictions, but you didn't say that you can't compare stars, so you can't evade this issue."

"Okay, okay," Mark Jackson said with a smile, "Since you asked this, I will briefly analyze the two of them. If you offend their fans and someone sends a razor blade to my house, you have to do it for me. Take charge, Doyle."

"It's okay, let them send it to me, my beard grows fast, save me to buy blades."

Mark Jackson laughed out loud, "That's right, Doyle, first of all, I must say that the media and fans like to compare their favorite stars with other stars, but what we have to consider is that basketball is a It’s a team sport where everyone has a different role to play and different responsibilities.”

"Oh, no, no, no, Mark, you are not allowed to get along like this," Standall said with a smile, "We all understand what you are saying, but the problem is that there is always only one boss on the team, and there is only one MVP in the finals. , Every player’s salary is different, so there are still strong and weak points.”

Mark Jackson said with a smile, "Doyle, I didn't intend to be muddled. I haven't finished my words. What I mean is that although basketball is a team sport, in the same position, some comparisons can still be made. "

"That's more or less, oh my god, it's not easy to get something out of you, please go ahead."

"For the comparison between Kobe and Ray Allen, what I want to say is that as a shooting guard, the main responsibility on the court is to score, and scoring, the most intuitive, is the level of scoring. Kobe can Said it was a complete victory, I believe that Ray Allen's fans should not have any objections. After all, last season, Kobe's scoring average reached a terrifying 35 points, which is also phenomenal in NBA history, and Ray Allen's last season It's only 25 points."

Standall nodded, "That's right."

"In terms of scoring methods, I think Kobe is better. After all, his offensive methods are more diverse. Whether it is from the outside or after breaking into the inside, Kobe is obviously richer in scoring methods."

"Then Kobe won the game completely?"

"Actually, from the perspective of scoring, it can be said that, as far as the achievements of the two are concerned, Kobe is better than the team. If defensive ability is added, the gap between them may be even greater. Big, but that's not my focus."

Mark Jackson said, "My point is, in fact, Ray Allen is a bit delayed. In fact, he can achieve better achievements."

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

"I don't know when you started paying attention to Ray Allen, but you can think about it, what was Ray Allen like when he first entered the league? He is also like Kobe, with all kinds of Offensive means, but then, when we think of him now, the first impression, is it only three-pointers?"

"Well, it seems so."

"Since coach McMillan came to the Sonics, he discovered Ray Allen's three-point potential, and McMillan, we all know that he is obsessed with three-point tactics,
In other teams before, he frantically promoted his three-point shooting tactics, but he failed to achieve results. As for why he failed, the reason is very simple. When facing high-intensity defense, the three-point shooting tactics are Extremely unstable, which also makes it difficult to play this tactic in the playoffs with higher defensive intensity. "

"That's right, when the Sonics played against the Spurs last season, we did discover this problem," Standall said.
