I really just want to be a role player

In the second quarter, the rotation battle.

Mike Brown still let the young and strong Su Bei and Paul continue to lead.

Kobe and Gasol, rest and recuperate!
With Jamison, PJ Tucker and Artest on the bench, the cards are still very good!

On the Spurs side, Bo Povich was up and down, and all of them were bench players.

Those who are discharged are De Juan Lyle, Diaw, Wu Sheng Jackson, Ginobili, and Gary Neal.

"The Lakers should have a strong lineup in the rotation. After all, the salary of [-] million depends on the ability to make money.

The Spurs' rotation lineup is also very strong. Compared with the starting lineup, it is very balanced and has a lot of players who can play. Could it be that the new season has 6 wins and 1 loss, and it has the qualifications to hit the championship..."

Ginobili and Wu Sheng Jackson will not be mentioned.

Although it is old, the fuel tank still has oil, and the rotation can produce the effect of reducing dimensionality.

Gary Neal and DeJuan Blair, rounding up, one with 10 points and 3 assists, one with 10 points and 6 rebounds, plus one with unremarkable statistics, Diaw, who is very versatile and fits the Spurs' tactical system, the Spurs' bench lineup is also very competitive force.

The game started in the second quarter, and the Spurs attacked the ball.

Gary Neal took the ball upcourt and immediately handed the damn ball to Ginobili.

The rotation battle of the Spurs is centered on Ginobili.

After receiving the ball, facing Jiangsu North's defense, the three-threat probed a few times and found no flaws in the attack. He immediately lobbed the ball to Audi who was pulled to the high position, and then moved and changed positions with Gary Neal, bringing Paul to the In front of Ginobili.

"Hey, the Spurs are copying the homework of the Lakers!

Diaw threw the basketball back to Ginobili, met Paul's close pressing, immediately feinted, dribbled the ball and broke through, and went in.

Hey, instead of using the snake step, he actually played a pick-and-roll tactic with Diaw. Facing PJ Tucker, Paul rushed over to attack, and Ginobili, as if he had predicted it, made a back pass and the ball went to the three-point line outside.

What is this operation?
After the pick-and-roll, Diaw did not cut inside, but retreated to a three-pointer and received a pass from Ginobili.

Such a tactic caught the Lakers by surprise, Diaw was completely empty, three meters away, the Lakers' defense was barren, received the ball, lifted it up, and Dio raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper..."

It was too late for Paul to save again.

Even if it's not too late, the 183 sky loses, in front of Dior's 2 meters, it's not listening to the gunshot.

Swish-!
With a knife in his hand, Dior actually brought a microwave oven on the court, and the first time he fired from beyond the three-point line, he hit the target.

"bingo!!

The Spurs' three-point tactics in this round are very nice, and they are basically unsolvable attacks.

Move and change positions, break through the pick-and-roll, and misplace three-pointers. Every attack is a difficult problem for the Lakers' defense. The Lakers can't do it separately. Together, it's even worse..."

23 to 28! !
Off the court, Bo Povich was very pleased with the team's performance.

Especially after renewing the contract with Dior, it's really hard to make money.

Diaw is too comprehensive, that is, he can enter the inside and partner with Duncan to form an inside combination.

You can also go to the outside and play forward tactics.

You can also cover in the two-point area and cooperate tactically with your teammates. In addition to being unable to have children, Dior is on the bed... no, on the court, he is simply a wonderful person.

This season, the average 38% three-point shooting rate per game also surprised the Spurs. This shooting performance is close to Dior's peak boxing state!

Looking back, the Lakers attacked.

Paul dribbles the ball to the top arc, ready to be dealt.

At this time, the Lakers' formation suddenly opened.

"Jamison and PJ Tucker are in the two three-point corners, and Subei and Artest are on the left and right wings. Paul makes an arc and singles out Gary Neal with the ball. He changes direction continuously and accelerates. Paul goes in.

Let Paul single out Gary Neal, a strong offensive and defensive role player, is the biggest blow to relegation.

The two wings of the Lakers are Subei and Ron Artest, Manu Ginobili Jackson, obviously dare to go short, but PJ Tucker, a role player who came back from Europe, can go short..."

Sure enough, Dirk Amblair didn't follow. Seeing Paul break through the first line of defense, he immediately helped defend him. However, Paul was not used to him, and tested the Spurs' ability with a two-point fadeaway jumper in the paint. defense.

Swish-!
"pretty!!

This is Paul's lethality, the face of a superstar on the court.

A single defense can't stop him, and he can't defend against a pincer attack if he wants to help. Paul didn't give the Spurs a chance to set up a second line of defense, so he made a quick shot and called it a day..."

23 to 30! !
The point difference becomes 7 points.

Off the court, Mike Brown was also very satisfied with this round of offense.

In the first quarter of the game, Paul's first goal was to organize, so as to save his physical strength for the second quarter.

Traveling with Kobe and Subei's offensive firepower at the wrong peak can maximize Paul's attack.

With Kobe on the court, you can play the triangle offense.

Only with Paul on the court, it seems more efficient to build tactics around Paul's breakthrough system.

On the other side, Bo Povich also saw the way of the Lakers, but he didn't panic.

On the court, the Spurs attacked.

It was Ginobili who held the ball and faced Jiangsu Bei, but he didn't make a strong play.

It was a lob to Dior in the high position, but an air cut came in.

"Beautiful pass and cut cooperation, Dior blocked Su Bei and gave the basketball to Ginobili. Seeing PJ Tucker rushing over, Ginobi broke through in a snake-like step, just like crossing the street in the early morning, passing PJ Tucker, only the basket is left in front of me..."

Bang-dang-!
Ginobi used an unremarkable one-handed dunk to dunk the basketball steadily into the basket and easily scored two points.

25 to 30! !
The point difference became 5 points! !

"The Spurs offense continues!

It is the pick-and-roll cooperation between Dior and Ginobili, breaking through the pick-and-roll, moving the pick-and-roll, both of them are very comprehensive, and there are many positions that can be played.

The Lakers' basket protection is still weak, and PJ Tucker is allowed to play center, who gave the Lakers the courage..."

Does Liang Jingru know?

On the field, as a defensive coach, Mike Brown has a very calm face.

The question is that the Lakers don't understand defense, and the Spurs don't want to understand either.

The Lakers attacked, and continued to play music, and then the others opened up. Paul singled out Gary Neal.

To be reasonable, none of the Spurs' point guards can defend.

Neither Tony Parker nor Gary Neal.

In the past, the point guards of the Lakers were either Fisher or Farmar and his ilk. Naturally, they couldn't clean up the point guards of the Spurs.

But the Lakers now have Paul, and they have surplus food at the point guard position, so they can naturally call on the Spurs, the "food shortage" guy.

"Paul moved, but the hands and feet of the Spurs seemed to be tied by the Lakers.

See how the Spurs broke?
It turned out to be the old method. This time, DeJuan Blair acted ahead of time and rushed to block Chris Paul.

Hey, the Lakers also made a change. PJ Tucker, who stayed in the right three-point corner, suddenly moved to the flank, covering Subei, blocked Ginobili, and liberated Subei.

boom--!
Chris Paul, who broke through, didn't wait for the Spurs' flanking tactics to end, and immediately pushed with both hands, passed a ground pass, and sent the damn basketball to the right three-point corner. Subei was completely empty. Within three meters, there is no one else, catch the ball, lift it up, and raise your hand to make a three-point jump shot..."

Ginobili was blocked and went around PJ Tucker's body, but it was too late.

The Spurs can only bet that Su Bei's three-point pistol has no bullets.

Swish-!
I guessed wrong, there were bullets in Su Bei's three-dimensional pistol.

"bingo!!

Beautiful cooperation, exquisite tactics, precise three-pointers...

The Lakers opened up the space to single out, use screen tactics to solve the most reliable shooting points, and then break through the bottom corner for three-point shots. Every attack is also a problem for the Spurs' defense. I can't top it..."

25 to 33! !
The point difference changed back to 8 points! !

At the beginning of the second quarter, neither side knew how to defend, and no one could do anything about offense.

Off the court, Bo Povich had a terrible headache.

It is impossible to defend Paul alone, and it is absolutely impossible to defend him.

Now that the Lakers have configured Paul with one star and four shots, the Spurs' defense can only be exhausted.

No way, just let the bullets fly for a while.

On the court, the Spurs attacked.

Similarly, Ginobili held the ball, faced up to Subei, and then dribbled the ball to break through.

"Diaw pulls up again, pick-and-roll for Ginobili.

Su Bei was blocked again, Ginobili misplaced and faced Jamison, broke through to the bottom with a snake-like step, and he shot..."

Boom, swish—!
Ginobili made a sharp breakthrough and rushed to the basket, unstoppable, and scored 2 points easily.

27 to 33! !
The point difference became 6 points.

Looking back, Paul singled out Gary Neal.

"Wu Sheng Jackson didn't regard Artest's three-pointer as alive, and chose to help defend it.

boom--!
Before he came over and jumped in front of him, Paul's ground pass sent the damn basketball to Artest's hands. After taking the ball, he rushed with the ball and he went in..."

Wu Sheng Jackson was fine when he came, but he couldn't go back. He could only watch Artest drive the bulldozer into the restricted area. On the other hand, he succeeded in attacking the basket.

Bang-dang-!
Artest dunked with both hands, and his whole body was hanging on the basket.

"It is true that Artest's three-point shooting is not stable, but he rushes up, coupled with his physical strength advantage, he is also unstoppable..."

27 to 35! !
The point difference is also 8 points! !

Although no one can help the opponent's offense, but the Lakers with an 8-point lead, the advantage lies with me.

The Lakers are not afraid to fight the Spurs offensively.

In the next game, the Spurs hit the iron.

Bringing Paul's defense in front of Ginobili, raising his hand is a three-point pull-up jumper. The opportunity has come out, but it's useless to just dawdle outside.

The Lakers' attack also failed.

Subei didn't dare to make a three-pointer, and Artest didn't give a chance to hit the basket, but he could let Jamison, who was outside the left three-point line, take a shot.

As a result, the same opportunity came up, Jamison did not bring a microwave oven, shot a three-point jumper, and the basket flew out.

Subsequently, the Spurs' offense scored, and soon, looking back, the Lakers immediately responded.

The two sides have entered the rhythm of mutual harm, attacking you come and live, no one wants to know how to defend.
