Super Small Forward

The Lakers are very calm here. Nowitzki couldn't stop the first quarter explosion. Due to his play style, as long as he has enough physical fitness, he is not much behind when he was young. Last season he averaged 9.2 points per game in the first quarter. Points, more than most players in the league, only a few people are better than Nowitzki in scoring in the first quarter.

But Nowitzki usually scores less in the next three quarters than in the first quarter. Because of physical fitness, Carlisle often uses Nowitzki as an arrow attack in the first quarter when others can’t open, just like today. .

　　 Green, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, was not swayed by Nowitzki's blowout in the first quarter. In basketball games, he really won in the end.

　　 Several other people on the Lakers also did a good job. David Lee scored two points with a mid-range shot, Matthews made a three-pointer, and everyone else blocked the opponent.

　　 Kobe is the only one with a gloomy face because he was guarded by Chandler Parsons!

Kobe has struggled to get rid of Chandler Parsons' defense. This surprised many Lakers fans. He played the Timberwolves and Kings in the first two games. Although his performance was not particularly good, he was still a little easy to do. It feels like, facing the real defensive champions today, the performance really looks quite struggling.

　　 But fortunately, the overall strength of the Lakers is strong, and Kobe pits a pit, it doesn’t matter.

　　 D'Antoni also began to make rotation adjustments, Clarkson, Antetokounmpo, Liu Ren, Monroe, Gasol played, and continued to send five large players.

　　 The height of the Lakers lineup is inherently terrible. The only ones who can be considered small are Green and Bi Yongbo. The others are large enough in their respective positions.

　　 D'Antoni is to continue to ensure the rebounding advantage, and the agility of this lineup is not weak.

　　 But what D'Antoni didn't expect was the Mavericks' lineup.

Originally, D'Antoni felt that the Mavericks had suffered a loss in rebounding and defense, and he would definitely switch to a bigger lineup. After all, the backcourt composed of Deron and Matthews is indeed too short compared to the Lakers. Although there are Noves in the frontcourt. Kee, but Nowitzki is a pitcher. David Lee is really short on the inside. The Lakers' favorite center, Bi Yongbo, is as tall as David Lee.

　　 But Carlisle made a strange move, sending Barea, Felton, Devin Harris, Jeremy Evans, Chandler Parsons this lineup!

　　 "The Mavericks are trying to imitate the Warriors' five small lineup? God, do they think Barea and Felton can be compared with the Splash Brothers?"

　　 The fans on the scene couldn't help taunting Carlisle from the bottom of their hearts. Don't you know what's going on in your lineup? This is really five old, weak and sick!

　　 The five deadly Lakers looked at the people they wanted to defend after they went on the court, and their hearts were all abrupt, too short of the opposing lineup! Clarkson is a head taller than Barea, Felton is on the shoulders of Antetokounmpo, and the Lakers are one head taller than the other side on average!

　　 After a timeout, the Mavericks have the ball right.

Sure enough, after the Mavericks dribble through halftime, the other four people all expanded beyond the three-point line. Clarkson defended Barea, Liu Ren and Antetokounmpo were okay, and there was no problem with following the outside line, but Gasol He and Monroe were dumbfounded, and they hesitated for a while and still defended to the outside line.

Just as Gasol was moving out to defend against Parsons's three-pointer, Parsons saw Gasol just running out, and immediately accelerated to cut into the inside from Gasol, Barea hit the ground and passed into the inside. , Chandler Parsons easily dunked.

Supposedly, it is unreasonable and irrational for the Mavericks to send such a lineup. Chandler Parsons is more than a little bit different from Randall or Green, and the other four are from the Warriors' five-small lineup. The difference between the four players is not a little bit worse. The Warriors' Jason Thompson is also a serious insider, and the Mavericks lineup is pure nonsense!

But Hu Lai has the beauty of Hu Lai. Although the Mavericks' lineup caused Gasol to become like O'Neal, he took the ball on the inside and directly knocked Chandler Parsons into a deduction. The defensive end was worse than nothing. But as soon as the Lakers scored a goal, the Mavericks immediately picked up the ball and served, and the five of them went straight to the fast break, even though Liu Ren, Clarkson, and Antetokounmpo returned to defense faster than the other team, even though Liu Ren had the best. With defensive ability at the defensive player level, Antetokounmpo is also an excellent defensive young player, plus a courageous Clarkson, but three defenses and five are impossible! Felton almost made a three-pointer after a slow adjustment to catch the ball unguarded in a two-meter radius ahead.

The Mavericks’ shortcomings in this lineup were used to the extreme by the Lakers. Liu Ren, Monroe, Gasol, and Antetokounmpo kept dunking in the paint. The opponent had to double-team at most two people. The two buckle as they want. If the other five contract double-teams, Liu Ren and Clarkson will fire on the outside.

　　 Clarkson's progress can be said to be phenomenal. The offensive range is getting wider and the shooting is getting more and more accurate. This is also the point of D'Antoni's distress.

LaVine and great, the talent has nothing to say. After a summer, his strength has improved so much that he has almost caught up with Clarkson, but Clarkson, a talented but hard-working player, D'Antoni is really reluctant to give up, his favorite It is this kind of player with average talent but hard work, but also hard to improve to become the top player of the second-line player even more reluctant.

　　 The Mavericks contracted the Lakers and threw two pitchers on the outside. Three insiders with a two-meter or more rebounding should not be too easy.

　　 The Lakers took full advantage of the Mavericks' weaknesses on the defensive end, and in turn, the Mavericks took full advantage of the mobility of this lineup, and they counterattacked, regardless of everything else.

　　 At this time, people discovered that the Mavericks' trick is very good! Carlisle deserves to be a champion-level coach!

The Mavericks were unable to defend against the Lakers. They had no advantage in rebounding, so he simply gave up these things. Their lineup was like that. The defensive end of the dead five minors is no different from the normal starter. Instead, this lineup is on the offensive end. Firepower is not worse than the Lakers! As long as the five open shots are not too bad, the Lakers simply can't prevent it after a fast break!

　　 This is almost exactly the same as the first quarter of the last Lakers preseason game against the Warriors! It's just that the Warriors are stronger and better defensively.

　　 And the five players in the Mavericks lineup have the ability to open three-pointers. The Warriors can't keep up with just a few quick breaks, but they are slowly catching up with the score under the ridicule of people!

　　 In the third minute of the second quarter, the Mavericks tied the score to 37!

　　 In fact, Death Five is a very unsolvable tactic, simple and crude.

　　 Just as the invincible defensive Spurs in the early twentieth century encountered Kobe's stunned singles, there was no way. In the 00-02 Finals, the Nets had nothing to do with O'Neal's rough singles.

The death fifth element is to improve the mobility of the offensive end to the extreme. Otherwise, you can change to the fifth element with them to prevent it, but that will fall into the opponent's trap. If the opponent really changes to the fifth element Tall, basically there is no possibility of a player who can prevent a breakthrough. The outside player cannot protect the frame like an inside player. The inside player can stand there and slap the ball while the outside player is inside. Defensively, you can only cover by jumping up.

This is the reason why the Warriors’ Death Five in Liu Ren’s memory is so invincible. They have a very special player that is Green. Green can hold the ball on the offensive end and defend from the shooting guard to the center on the defensive end. While the Warriors have an excellent offense, they also ensured defense.

Although D'Antoni tried five small lineups during the 2013-2014 season, it was a time when he did not attach importance to defense. Last season, he found that his team was the most likely to win the championship, and Bixby Taf came, so he started a steady and steady strategy, don't take risks, don't do things, and then smoothly get the best winning percentage in NBA history, and then continue to smoothly win the championship.

But in this way, D'Antoni’s daring spirit was suppressed, and he became a habit of playing steadily, and the reinforcement of the Lakers management also fell into the habit of the Lakers last season~www.readwn.com~Last season Lakers insider Only Green, Gasol, and Whiteside rotate, and occasionally add Antetokounmpo, so Kupchak brought in Monroe and Biyombo.

Everyone has no opinion on this approach. The Lakers lineup has become more and more explosive. The depth of each position of the Lakers can be described as horror. They have almost formed three lineups that can be five over and five under, which makes D'Antoni even less. The need for adventure.

　　 But sometimes the game is about taking risks. For example, Carlisle is now thinking about changing into the five small lineup. It is really taking risks, but it has achieved miraculous effects! D'Antoni called a timeout first.

　　 D'Antoni looked at Carlisle's slightly contemplative old face. He knew exactly what this old opponent was thinking. The opponent must be using such a broken lineup to suppress them and secretly proud!

　　 D'Antoni's heart is also stunned, five small is five small, who is afraid of!

D'Antoni looked at the bench and wondered who should be sent to play the fifth elementary school. He saw the 13 talented players on the active list today and suddenly wanted to slap himself. With such a lineup, he was worried about the fifth elementary school. What are you doing?

　　 It’s not right, thinking about what to do with the five elementary school to deal with the five elementary school? The normal lineup is not enough!

　　 Antetokounmpo played as a substitute for power forward last year! Green also occasionally plays the center position rotation! The speed of these two people is not at a disadvantage compared to the smaller one of the other!

　　 After a timeout, the Mavericks continued to maintain a lineup of five small men. Barea, Deron, Matthews, Chandler Parsons, and PJ-Halston played on the field.

　　 The Lakers sent LaVine, McCollum, Korver, Antetokounmpo, and Green.
