Healthy basketball, starting from eating the old Lakers F4

On June 6, at the Staples Center, the finals G7 was held as scheduled.

Originally, Du En was worried that this game would be difficult to play, after all, the previous G1 game was not that comfortable.

Considering that if you want to win the finals, you must win at least one away game. Before the game, Doon had already made a desperate effort to win tonight's game.

Unexpectedly, after the game started, the Bulls players performed very well overall.

Perhaps it was the referee's penalty that inspired the Bulls players' rebellious psychology and prompted the Bulls to become more united.

After the game officially started, the Bulls played team basketball that is usually rare.

Although the Bulls have used some breakout and passing tactics before, under normal circumstances, Duane and Cassell are more responsible for connecting the team.

At other times, they either take the ball and attack themselves, or use the opportunity of transition attack to open up the score.

The Lakers did a lot of research on the Bulls before the game, but tonight the Bulls made one or two more passes in each round, which actually made the Lakers a little bit incompetent.

In order to restrict Duan, the Lakers were forced to play a zone defense. The Bulls passed the ball many times, which happened to focus on the weak link of the Lakers' perimeter defense.

After the first quarter, the score on the court reached 27 to 23. Although the Bulls only led by 4 points, it was established under an obviously unfavorable penalty situation.

After the game entered the second quarter, Luol Deng became the leading player on the Bulls' second lineup. The Bulls focused on the Lakers' inability to defend on the wings and exploited the weak points.

After Luol Deng scored 4 points in just 8 minutes, Duan returned to the court.

Kobe, who also returned to the court, could only choose one person to guard. Since he had no other skills, he could only guard Luol Deng who was in good condition first, trying to press down Luol Deng first.

As a result, Du En exploded as expected.

Du En shot 5 three-pointers in a row. Although he only made 3, his scoring efficiency was already exaggerated.

Du En's performance was so outstanding that the Zen Master was so frightened that he shouted for a moment to slow down.

However, after the timeout, Duen returned to the court and was still in excellent condition, hitting two more three-pointers in the remainder of the second quarter.

Duen opened the three-pointer, and the Bulls' offensive space became larger. Other points also benefited from this, and Duen made some three-pointers.

It is said that if the referee wants to intervene in the game, he must seize the opportunity.

Duane did not start walking, and the Bulls did not foul the ball. The Lakers players were unable to prevent the Bulls players from consecutive three-pointers from the outside, and the referee naturally had nothing to do.

It is precisely because of this that the Bulls' game rhythm and shooting feel were not destroyed. After a rain of three-pointers, the score became unstoppable.

Relying on two consecutive small climaxes, 11-5 and 9-4 before and after the timeout, the Bulls further opened up the score in the second quarter and firmly established a double-digit advantage.

After the halftime break, the Lakers players who came back on the court were obviously a little anxious.

Kobe held the ball early and hit the basket, trying to activate O'Neal and Gasol.

But the problem is, Kobe doesn't like to call pick-and-rolls. It's already very difficult to beat Duan, not to mention that there is Garnett behind Duan.

Tonight, Duan avoided foul trouble and did not choose to force physical confrontation to lock down Kobe. Instead, he cooperated with Garnett to flank.

Kobe was a little obsessed with the game and apparently forgot that the referee was in their favor.

If Kobe continues to hit the basket with the ball, he may be able to cause damage and get to the free throw line, causing Garnett to encounter the trouble of too many fouls in advance.

However, Kobe didn't expect this. Maybe he wanted to win the game with hard power and didn't bother to do so.

In short, Kobe's shot choices in the third quarter were mostly picturesque fadeaway jumpers.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Kobe's physical strength was not a problem, and he could still rely on his personal strength to make these shots with a shooting rate of about 50%.

However, the mid-range did not quench the thirst, and the score was chased very slowly.

At this time, Kobe had only one idea in his mind, which was to make more mid-range shots to help the Lakers solve their difficulties.

However, in the next game, as his physical strength declined, Kobe became the key for the Bulls to bite the score and even widen the point difference again.

In terms of scoring in the third quarter alone, Kobe scored 13 points in a single quarter, which is not too bad.

On the contrary, Du En only scored 8 points and his performance was average.

However, Kobe took 11 shots in a single quarter, which was too many, and it also affected the feel and condition of other players.

In addition, they missed a lot of shots, and the Bulls seized the opportunity to play transition offense.

It is precisely because of this that after the third quarter, the score reached 83-68, and the Bulls had established a 15-point lead.

Seeing that the Bulls were about to win, the three referees tonight naturally tried to intervene in the game.

However, in the fourth quarter, the Bulls played extremely resolutely. They did not choose to suppress the rhythm of the game, but continued to attack.

Duan and others had already guessed that the Lakers would have more opportunities to get to the free throw line.

This also means that even if Du En and others run desperately, they still have a lot of time to breathe heavily on the court.

From a penalty point of view, it is impossible for the Bulls to win the game tonight by relying on defense.

Only by attacking, continuing to attack, and scoring more than 20 or even 30 points in a single quarter can the Bulls have a chance to win this game.

After all, there are so many people watching the finals. It's okay for the whistle to be a little biased, but it can't be too outrageous. Things like 20 free throws in a single quarter are impossible.

A large number of free throws will also take up some shot rights. It is unlikely that the Lakers can score more than 20 points by taking more than a dozen shots in a single quarter.

Therefore, the safest way for the Bulls is to score, and the referee cannot interfere too much in scoring.

Once the shot is made, it goes in. It is impossible to blow the delayed whistle after the goal is made, indicating that someone committed a foul without the ball before the shot was made.

The Bulls have enough winning experience and enough belief in winning.

Relying on steady and accurate shooting, protecting rebounds as much as possible, and crazy transition offense, the Bulls had already scored 15 points before the game was even halfway through the fourth quarter.

The score difference on the field also expanded to 21 points.

When the Bulls were all over the place, the Lakers didn't know what to do.

In the end, Zen Master only left Kobe Bryant on the court to resist for a while, while the other main players withdrew early and surrendered.

113 to 90, the Bulls won G23 of the finals with a huge advantage of 2 points, and felt proud.

“I keep saying that we are the defending champions and my teammates are incredible!

We have played together for so many years and we can trust each other completely.

Even if I am blocked, I believe my teammates will step up and win the game. "

During the G2 interview, Du En enthusiastically praised his teammates.

Tonight's victory was completely beyond Du En's imagination, and it will also be very helpful for winning the finals.

While Duan praised his teammates, Garnett and others also praised Duan who scored 31 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists tonight. “It’s impossible to completely guard against Duen. Duen is too difficult to guard against. I’ve tried.

He can do it all on the court, and I'm not sure anyone can guard Duane one-on-one.

Sometimes the game is like this, either the whole team chooses to restrict Du En, or choose to let Du En score alone.

These are two bottles of poison that are both deadly!

Tonight we relied on Doon's attraction to get more scoring opportunities.

However, this season, it often happens that Duan scores crazy points alone and leads us to victory.

Now that Du En is on a stage like the finals, he can still contribute 30+ points steadily. This is really incredible! "

"Dunn is so crazy! He scored another 30 points! We just wanted to go back to Chicago and win, and Dunn chose to bring the victory back to Chicago!"

"You know, Kobe is very strong, his offense and defense are very tough.

We can only offset the effect of Kobe on the court by keeping Duane on the court.

Yes, as long as Duane is on the court, even if he doesn't score, we will gain. "

After winning G2, they moved to Chicago, and the next three consecutive games were at the Bulls' home court.

At this juncture, the Bulls won G23 with a huge advantage of 2 points, which undoubtedly gave Bulls players and fans a reassurance in advance.

As the Bulls and their team returned to Chicago on the counterattack, the Chicago media and Bulls fans also took action overnight.

For a time, the topic and slogans of the Bulls' fourth consecutive championship spread all over the United States.

Fans who have watched the finals basically recognize this.

The Lakers were strong, but they couldn't stop the Bulls from winning the championship.

Sometimes, mental attributes are also important to win the game.

Judging from the G2 game, the referee was a bit of a disservice.

In the next three games, if the referees continue to work hard, the Bulls players will definitely be united and continue to share the same hatred.

On June 6, the much-anticipated NBA Finals began again, and the war between the Bulls and the Lakers began again at the United Center in Chicago.

As predicted by most media, basketball commentators and fans, the Lakers players who had just moved to Chicago were exhausted physically and mentally and did not adjust to their condition immediately.

Even though the Bulls players were not in good shape at the beginning of the game, this is the United Center after all, and it is the home court that the Bulls players are most familiar with.

It is worth mentioning that tonight the Bulls players finally felt the home court advantage again.

From the beginning of the first quarter, it was obvious that the whistle was biased towards the Bulls.

Even in the second half, the referee began to blow the balance whistle, but the Bulls had already established a 16-point lead in the first half.

The balance whistle in the third quarter was not that exaggerated. The Bulls continued to play steadily and entered the fourth quarter with a 13-point lead.

It can be said that what followed was a replica of G2. The Bulls did not give up any offensive opportunities, but overwhelmed the Lakers players in terms of momentum.

To be honest, after meeting in the Finals for three consecutive years, the Lakers players were also psychologically damaged by the Bulls players.

Of course, the paranoid Kobe is an exception, but no matter how high-spirited Kobe is, it won't help.

Kobe's mental attributes are full, but it is only his own. Some Lakers players are already retreating at this time.

The Lakers have lost for two consecutive years, which already illustrates some problems - Kobe seems unable to lead them to defeat the Bulls in front of them.

The same was true when the Jazz met the Bulls in the Finals ten years ago.

The Bulls led by Jordan are an insurmountable mountain for the Jazz led by the Utah duo!

It's useless for the Lakers right now if Kobe refuses to admit defeat.

O'Neal Jr. was never reliable at critical moments, and Gasol was not so comfortable playing because he was always in the fifth position, and his performance was average.

The Lakers' salary is all concentrated on a few stars, so don't expect substitute players to step up and help the Lakers turn defeat into victory.

Besides, the Bulls already know how to beat the Lakers!

Just pick the flank to attack!

The quality of the Bulls' forward group is the best in the league, and although the Lakers are not at the bottom, they are not among the top ten.

It can only be said that the gap between the two teams is really big. Whether it is the player configuration or the quality of the stars, the Bulls are at least one level higher than the Lakers.

95 to 107, the Bulls held on to their first home advantage with a 12-point advantage.

As a result, the score in the finals has also advanced to 2-1. With the Bulls leading by one point and having two home court advantages, they have fully grasped the initiative in the finals.

Kobe also knew that the Bulls lost first and then won, winning two games in a row. Their morale was very high and the situation was very unfavorable to them.

After the game, Kobe couldn't hold it back and lost his temper in the locker room. Although he didn't hit anyone or kick a chair, the look of his tantrum was scary.

However, after venting his emotions, Kobe promptly apologized to other teammates under the leadership of Zen Master.

The Zen master also led everyone to meditate to resolve the conflicts and pressure accumulated during this period.

To some extent, Kobe's anger was also caused by Zen Master.

As early as more than ten years ago, Zen Master directed the scene where Jordan beat Cole violently.

After Jordan finished venting his emotions and took the initiative to apologize to Cole, the Bulls locker room became stable and quiet.

Now the Lakers locker room is also in trouble. Some players have thoughts in their hearts, but they don't say it.

If you do nothing, say nothing, just keep going.

Then when the Lakers are defeated by the Bulls, when the Finals are completely over, and when the championship team the Lakers fall apart, these things will become unknown secrets and continue to be hidden.

If the Lakers want to continue to remain competitive, they need to speak out what is on everyone's mind and resolve conflicts.

It's better for Kobe to be furious than for everyone to be deaf.

And if the Zen Master comes forward as a good old man, at least there are still people who are willing to play for the Zen Master, listen to the Zen Master's words, and continue to compete in the finals.

Of course, there may be Zen Master’s own thoughts in this.

But now the Lakers' guns must be aligned with the outside world. After all, the Bulls have already put their neck on the Lakers' neck.

On June 6, G11 of the Finals, whether the Lakers can change the direction of the series and regain the opportunity to win the championship basically depends on this game.

Once the Bulls win G4, the total score will come to 3-1, and the Lakers will basically be eliminated.

Once the Lakers win this crucial game, at least they can return to Los Angeles, have two home court advantages, and be able to turn defeat into victory.

The problem is, no one wants to lose in this game tonight! Like a bull, he chooses to go all out! (End of chapter)
