Wang Ba led the Lakers to a 7:2 climax, leading the Raptors by 10 points. Nash had no choice but to request a timeout.

"That guy is very evil. When we play, we must pay attention to protecting the ball and not dribbling too much to avoid being intercepted."

"Xiao Ka, do you need to double-team?"

Leonard shook his head.

He has his own pride. He must get back on track after being intercepted by Wang Ba.

Back to the game,

The Raptors served the baseline ball, and the Lakers suddenly pressed the whole court.

Wang Ba covered Lowry who was in control of the ball, and King Ka came to assist him in double-teaming.

Lowry was a little confused.

The game was not yet the last moment, and he was double-teamed, or he was double-teamed just after serving the ball in the backcourt?

Is it too cruel?

His reaction speed was very fast, and he had to pass the ball to Leonard,

Ingram rushed over with his teeth bared, and Wang Ba also stuck to help press,

After many storms, Leonard was skilled and bold, and passed the ball to Tielin across half court,

The Lakers only had Pope and McGee in the half court, and the Raptors had 3 players. As long as they passed the ball, they would basically be open,

As a result,

Pope acted quickly and interfered, and Caruso at the back also came back to participate in the press,

Tielin's dribbling ability is hard to describe. Facing the Lakers' sudden change of rhythm, he was a little panicked, and saw that Lowry had passed half court and chose to pass back.

His intention was too obvious, and Wang Ba saw it in his eyes, and appeared in the passing route in advance and flew to intercept.

The four Lakers started at the same time and rushed to the front court,

Ingram and Pope opened up on both sides, Wang Ba held the ball in the front, and King Caruso followed behind, the formation was perfect, and the Raptors focused on the middle.

Wang Ba made a decisive breakthrough in the middle, and the Raptors were very tight.

He took 3 steps and the Raptors defense followed him. Wang Ba threw the ball behind his head, and the following King caught the ball and dunked it.

Johnson in the commentary booth stared with big eyes,

"Shocked my friend!"

"The Lakers' defense suddenly increased, and the Raptors were forced to make mistakes. I must say that this defense was beautiful, and the final steal and fast break dunk were even more beautiful!"

Miller:

"The Raptors didn't expect the Lakers to suddenly press the whole court, and they were a little panicked, so the Lakers seized the opportunity. It seems that the Lakers made special arrangements for this timeout, and Walton Jr. did a good job in details."

Walton Jr.: Why didn't I know?

It doesn't matter whether he knows or not. Coach Nash on the Raptors bench frowned, and you can see that he is not calm inside.

He is not afraid of full-court pressing.

As an old coach, he is very clear about the side effects of full-court pressing.

The full-court press will be used at three points in time.

In the last round of each quarter, when there is not much time left, the defense will press hard and not let the opponent score.

The second type,

In the last time of the game, when the score is behind, the defense will press hard to force the opponent to make mistakes to catch up.

The third type,

Suddenly pressing to break the opponent's rhythm usually has a miraculous effect.

In summary,

The full-court press is a way to disrupt the opponent's rhythm through high-intensity defense. The players' front line is the whole court, and the space is very open.

It is easy to cause leakage and give the offense an easy chance to score.

At the same time,

The full-court press consumes a lot of physical energy for the defender, and is usually only used in a few rounds. After a few rounds, it will return to normal play.

The Lakers' pressing was unexpected, and mistakes were acceptable.

Besides,

The pressing will not last for many rounds, so he is not worried. He is worried about Wang Ba.

From the third quarter till now, Wang Ba's steals are really terrifying.

In the previous ball, Tielin was a little slow in passing the ball, but it was definitely not to the extent of a mistake.

The steals were all because of Wang Ba's advance prediction. Considering that he had continuously stolen from Leonard, Coach Nash didn't know how to arrange tactics.

In the next two rounds, the Lakers continued to press the whole court. The prepared Raptors found defensive loopholes through passing and scored easily.

The Lakers returned to normal mode, and Wang Ba took the initiative to find Leonard.

Leonard was angry in his heart. He thought I was easy to bully, and it would never end, right!

He dribbled the ball sideways and took two steps, while using his body to push Wang Ba away, intending to force a mid-range jump shot.

In the decisive stage of the game, the mentality is the key.

Leonard is called a robot because he can remain calm and unperturbed at any time.

Now,

He is obviously emotional, and negative emotions can easily affect technical movements, especially when facing a guy like Wang Ba who plays with his brain.

Wang Ba responded very calmly. After being pushed away, he immediately adjusted and quickly moved forward.

The moment he was pushed away was when Leonard was at his weakest defense. As soon as the opponent passed the ball, Wang Ba immediately reached out and grabbed the ball.

Snap!

The whole court was already crazy, and another steal!

Ingram on the wing was quick-witted and got it in the first place.The ball was passed to Caruso who was advancing quickly to the front court, and then followed by Wang Ba.

Caruso went to the middle, Ingram followed, and Wang Ba went to the right and ran to the bottom corner.

The Raptors retreated quickly, and Caruso couldn't force a layup. Ingram followed too closely, and he didn't have the ability to pass the precise pass that Wang Ba did.

If there is any difficulty, find Wang Ba.

Without thinking, he threw the ball to the bottom corner on the right. Wang Ba received the ball, and Leonard had already chased him. He ignored him and raised his hand directly.

Leonard felt bitter.

He knew that this was probably a fake move, but he had to rush forward, otherwise Wang Ba might really shoot.

He held back his strength, didn't exert any strength, and jumped up slightly.

Wang Ba saw that Leonard didn't exert any strength, so the fake move became a real move, bent his knees, raised his arms, and shook his wrists.

The basketball flew over Leonard's fingertips and flew into the basket.

Swish!

"Beautiful!"

"So handsome!"

"Steal the ball from Leonard, then turn around and hit a three-pointer, who else!"

"True offense and defense all in one!"

"Did Wang Ba steal Kawhi's skill pack? Death Coil confused Kawhi."

"Hahaha, Kawhi's Death Coil is female, and Wang Ba's is male."

The big screen on the scene replayed Wang Ba's entire process from defense to offense over and over again. The commentary position of the local TV station in Los Angeles was very clear.

They must support the local team, the Los Angeles Lakers.

"Wang Ba dominates both offense and defense. I just want to say that the Lakers' biggest gain this season is getting Wang Ba!"

"Fool the Lakers management and immediately reach an agreement with Wang Ba , sign Wang Ba, he must stay in Los Angeles, he is the new king of Los Angeles! ”

In Tencent live broadcast room, Yang Yi was also very excited:

"Wang Ba's stealing ability is simply terrifying."

"If I remember correctly, he has been defending Leonard until now, and Leonard has not scored."

"Pay attention to Wang Ba's defense. Although he is not as tall as Leonard, his wingspan is not as good as Leonard, and his strength is not as good as Leonard, he uses his flexibility to keep a distance from Leonard,"

"I can't find the right words, I can only say it's awesome!"

"I think the Lakers management should just take out the check and let Wang Ba fill it out casually, otherwise it will be dereliction of duty."

"Get Wang Ba, and you will win the world."
