NBA: Miller moment at the start

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers' rotation performance was poor and the Trail Blazers chased them.

The Lakers' substitutes were not weak.

Ball, Bald Mamba, Old Boxing Champion, Hart, Bullock,

They were all players with strong defensive ability and had enough rotation time. However, they happened to meet the Trail Blazers, a team of the old sixth.

The Trail Blazers' defense is very famous. It seems to be defensive, but it is not.

They only defended the Lakers' most accurate Bald Mamba Caruso on the outside. Everyone else was left open. The Lakers also cooperated very well. They shot when they were left open, and they would miss.

Ball's pass relied on breakthrough points. The Trail Blazers all shrank inside and could not pull out.

The offense was ugly and the defense was also penetrated.

The Trail Blazers used McCollum to lead a 2-lineup, which had a stable output point. The Lakers had no offensive point and the organization was messy. They were beaten 12-2.

105:103

Seeing that the Blazers were about to tie the score, Walton (the Lakers coach in 2019 was Walton, and in 2020 it was Vogel. I wrote Vogel in the front, but it’s all over. Sorry to drag everyone in) made a bold decision to replace Wang Ba in advance and play with the substitutes. His decision aroused Barkley’s doubts.

"Wang Ba played a long time today, 26 minutes already, and now he will play more than 35 minutes. Whether his physical fitness can be guaranteed is unknown. It would be better to replace him with Pope or Rondo."

Miller:

"The Lakers' bench has no stable output, can't open up space, and the organization is chaotic. Pope and Rondo can solve the problem, and Wang Ba can solve it alone."

Barkley nodded:

"That's right, but the Lakers have a big problem in their lineup. If they can't solve it, it will be difficult to go long-term."

Miller:

"It can only be said that Walton's coaching ability is questionable, and the Lakers' personnel configuration is a bit useless."

"Great minds think alike."

If Wang Ba heard this, he would definitely shout, confidant!

Walton is not suitable to be a head coach.

In the first two years, there was no defense, and the offense was completely single-handed, and the record was terrible.

This season, relying on James's drive, they scored in the top 8, covering up the Lakers' lack of systematic defense, and the offense was all dependent on James.

Wang Ba was used, and the tactics designed were pick-and-roll. Even the most basic off-ball shooter movement to create a trap for the ball handler had to rely on Rondo's suggestions.

The Trail Blazers had two top players, Lillard and McCollum, who could attack the frame and were accurate from the outside. Walton did not set up a specific defensive tactic,

nor did he give the two a relatively high-intensity defense. Lillard scored 38 points in 3 quarters.

Pants Ma was used as the starting player, and the rotation lacked an attacking point. When the points were chased, the main players' playing time was extended, and Wang Ba's physical fitness problem was left behind.

The game started again,

and the ball was handed to Ball. Wang Ba ran to the frontcourt and whispered in Caruso's ear. Walton frowned on the sidelines. Wang Ba did not follow the tactics he arranged to hold the ball and organize.

Wang Ba wanted to curse,

He organized the offense, what did Ball do? Standing and watching the show?

The fundamental problem of the Lakers is that they can't open up space on the outside, and the Trail Blazers shrink the inside, and Ball's characteristics can't be brought into play, so the organization is chaotic.

He plays without the ball and makes shots from the outside. How dare the Trail Blazers shrink?

If they don't shrink, Ball's advantages can be brought into play.

Shrink, Wang Ba and Caruso open fire from the outside.

Walton can't even figure out simple truths. It's a waste of such a big head.

McCollum actively defends Wang Ba, sticking very close to him and not letting him receive the ball.

Wang Ba starts to move like a snake.

Cut to the inside, then go around to the left baseline, then go inside, use teammates to cover, and go around the opponent, which is extremely coquettish.

Ball rushed into the inside with the ball, and he immediately ran to the top line. Carus screened at the top of the arc. McCollum wanted to go around, but the ball had already been passed.

He shot as soon as he received the ball, and the basketball passed over McCollum's head and penetrated the net.

Wang Ba turned around gracefully, leaving McCollum with a proud look, as if to say: That's it?

Even a calm McCollum had the urge to punish Wang Ba on behalf of the moon.

Looking back,

McCollum attacked with the ball and motioned for everyone to move away.

Terry Stotts' face on the sidelines was almost twisted into a knot. Did he forget the lesson of Lillard being blocked 5 times in singles?

Wang Ba was kind enough to remind McCollum:

"Singles must start with 3 rounds. I'll give you a discount and only block you 2 times. How about that?"

I'll break your leg!

McCollum waited until his teammates pulled away, then immediately accelerated and broke through from the left, but was blocked by Wang Ba's lateral movement:

"You didn't even say hello, you're not a good boy!"

He pulled the ball with his left hand and turned around very quickly,

"Use [Invincible Defense Experience Card] to bind McCollum."

He turned around and found that Wang Ba had blocked his way, and was immediately shocked: So fast!

BenchLillard's brows were furrowed. Wang Ba's second lateral movement was obviously faster than the first. Could the first one be controlled?

Who can control it so freely?

If it was not deliberately controlled, how to explain the difference in the speed of the two movements?

Is it an illusion?

McCollum forced himself to calm down. He changed direction and faked continuously, but he failed to pass Wang Ba. Seeing that the offensive time was about to end,

He followed Lillard's old path again, faked a sudden stop and stepped back to jump shot.

Wang Ba did not lose his position, nor was he fooled by the fake move. He jumped into the air and swung his hand in a circle. McCollum found that something was wrong but it was too late.

Bang! !

A block hit him head on, the basketball flew to the front court, McCollum was so confused that he didn't even return to defense,

Wang Ba quickly launched a counterattack and found that no one was chasing him,

He stopped outside the 3-point line, shot boldly, turned around after the shot, raised his right arm and made an OK gesture,

In a community in Los Angeles,

The boy who was watching the live broadcast stood up and made an OK gesture,

In a city in China,

Pobo, who was squeezing into the bus during the morning rush hour, raised his right arm and made an OK gesture, and everyone around him cast strange looks.

In Europe,

The man who was playing poker with his girlfriend drew his weapon, raised his hands, and made an OK gesture, which caused his girlfriend to be angry.

"You are so bad."

"???"

"Two circles, I understand, come on."

The man was furious:

"As expected, women can only affect my watching the game, fuck you!"

At the scene,

All the Lakers bench stood up and raised their hands, a small number of Lakers fans also raised their hands, and some confused Trail Blazers home fans also raised their hands and were beaten by their companions.

"Traitor!"

"So you are Infernal Affairs!"

The beaten fans felt wronged and defended:

"I was simply overwhelmed by adrenaline and couldn't control it."

"What is adrenaline?"

"In simple terms, it's the feeling of taking drugs, do you understand?"

"I understand, I actually have this feeling, that kind of numb feeling when the climax comes."

"Then why did you hit me!"

"Although Wang Ba is very passionate, we must stand firm."

The Trail Blazers fans are really sober in the world, which means: you can cheat mentally, but you can never cheat physically.

[Brothers, when I wrote it earlier, I wrote Lakers head coach Walton as Vogel, but I have changed it all. The next one is Walton... If it shows Walton, ignore it]
