From today on is the king

Chapter 278 276. As long as he can win, it doesn't matter if he is shameless or not

Kill the shark!

Against Mark Madsen, against Medvedenko, and even Gerani McCoy, the second-round pick at the end of the Lakers' bench in 98, they used foul tactics to send them to the free throw line. Looking back, the Eagles ground their positions.

I don't know if there is a law of O'Neal's team. The center forwards are all terrified of free throws, and the highest free throw percentage of Medvedenko is only 60.00%.

The Lakers have never made less than 80.00% of their free throws from outside, especially the former Warriors of the 90s who came to hug their thighs and the king's superstar Mickey Redmond, who made 90.00% of their free throws.

The Lakers are going crazy. No matter which center is replaced, the opponent will foul immediately, which is even better than Popovich and old Nelson who cut O'Neal!
The Lakers have only one opinion about the Eagles: Shameless!
The fans at the scene felt this strong rookie style of their own, and they were already calm, anyway, they were cheering!Lakers center walks to the free throw line... cheers too!The Lakers missed a free throw, let's cheer!My team's ugly ground, because this lineup does not have a real big man to cover, there is no support point at the basket, it is a bit miserable, and there is an offensive burden that comes up to foul, the scoring efficiency is not high, but at least it is higher than the opponent, cheers!
As professional players, especially role players, they basically listen to the arrangements of their coaches and bosses, and play as they please. Unless role players are characterized as crazy knives and have the ability to suddenly become a wave of superstars, otherwise they will only be hidden for not listening to the arrangements.

As for the stars, Raheem doesn’t care about being too shameless, and he doesn’t care about his own data. He has been a data maniac for five years, and he knows that data alone is useless. You have to win to pay attention. What Liu Mang’s arrival brings is winning. Just follow orders. I dare not say that Liu Mang’s ideas are not wrong, but Rahim admires Liu Mang’s brain!

Although Jason Terry has not yet reached the point where he regards data as nothing and can guarantee 20+10 like Raheem, he just can't understand Kobe's sloppy look, and Kobe has already scored 41 points at the beginning of the third quarter. He doesn't want to be the background of Kobe's scoring show.

In the third quarter, from the last 1 minute to the last 3 minutes, in more than 8 minutes, the Lakers scored 24 free throws!That's an average of three free throws per minute!

In other words, from the second minute of the third quarter of the Lakers until the official off-the-ball foul in the last 2 minutes of each game is regarded as a physical foul, the Lakers hardly have a successful offense!All free throws!

……

"It's so shameless! Shameless! The whole Eagles team is shameless!" Barkley climbed onto the table angrily.

In today's game, as the team with two consecutive championships, the Lakers are still regarded as the strongest in the league even if they are only fourth in the West, while the Eagles are number one in the East, and there are no outstanding teams in the East. The Eagles are regarded as the strongest in the East and the strongest in the East and West.

In the first half, Kobe Bryant flourished, and Barkley was so excited to see the rookie being abused. If Kenny Smith and the TNT producer didn't think it was unsightly and quickly stopped him, Barkley would have stripped off his clothes and danced to the disco.

But in the third quarter, just when Barkley was expecting a certain rookie to continue to be abused, the Eagles began to chop the sharks, and they still shamelessly hacked those backup centers who had no offensive ability!
This is the first time in the entire NBA!
Sure enough, just like Doug Rivers and Kevin McHale who started this kind of slashing role players and were sprayed to death, Barkley was completely blown up, cursing the Eagles crazily on the live broadcast.

"Charles, calm down!" Kenny Smith watched Barkley go crazy and dissuaded him while laughing...

……

……

In the third quarter, the Lakers made 1 of 2 free throws in total except for Kobe's 24 goal and 11 points in a sports game. The Lakers only scored 13 points in the third quarter!
Of course, the Eagles' offense was not much better, but relying on 7 points in a row at the beginning of the third quarter, they also shot 18 of 6 from the field and scored 23 points in a single quarter, successfully chasing the point difference to only 3 points left!
73 is better than 76!

In the last 2 minutes of the third quarter, Kobe, who could no longer bear it anymore, couldn't suppress his desire to shoot. He started to rush towards the basket of the Eagles with the ball, regardless of whether he could make a shot or not.

Needless to say, Kobe's style of play is really strong, touching the basket is a foul, and as early as the second minute of this quarter, the Eagles have already fouled 4 times, and Kobe's desperate rampage is a free throw.

Kobe Bryant scored 2 points in the last 6 minutes, turning the score into 82-77.

After three quarters, the Eagles trailed the Lakers by 5 points at home.

……

"Ace, shall we continue in the fourth quarter?" Rahim looked hopeful of winning. Although he only scored 5 points in the third quarter, he felt good. It was right to have a chance to win!It's too difficult to play against Kobe normally, and it's all like this. Kobe also scored 49 points in three quarters.

Liu Mang looked at Coach Kruger, who was holding the foul statistics.

"Newbell 4, Mottola 3, Henderson 3, Strickland 2..."

Then there's Reggie Slater on the 12-man active roster and Carl Bobs in a suit who hasn't played in a game this year.

Only then did Liu Mang realize that there are so many small forwards, power forwards, and centers in his team, and there are so many who can't play... But just like what a villain in Xingye's movie said, even a piece of toilet paper has his use at critical moments.

"Coach, continue?" Liu Mang asked, he felt that he could continue to torture his opponent.

Just as Coach Kruger was about to nod and say yes, he suddenly realized that the camera was facing him. It was the kind that would show the tactical process arranged by the coach in a small window that would appear during the game after a few minutes of playing. It was usually used for analysis after a team made a reversal or a key goal.

Coach Kruger saw the camera coming, Emma, ​​damn it!I don't want to bear the name of this shameless coach!Coach Kruger handed the tactical board directly to Liu Mang and said, "Ace, you continue to arrange tactics, and you performed very well in the second half! You have great potential as a coach after you retire in the future. I am optimistic about you!"

"?" Liu Mang looked confused, what does this sudden compliment mean?But still hold the tactical board, what tactics should I arrange?Let's set up defense first!

"Sharif, Jason, you guys take a break first, I'll go up and play singles, Emmanuel, Chris, you go up, use fouls to stop the opponent's offensive rhythm, and foul the opponent's center when the number of fouls is up." Although the team has a lot of reserves in the frontcourt, three of them are not on the active list. Carl Bobs is not on the active list. It's rotten, and then use the guards and small forwards to foul first, and Liu Mang is going to use the inside line after the official timeout.

Emmanuel can make air cuts, but he doesn't shoot. Chris Crawford is a rebounding forward with good physical fitness, but he hasn't developed his three-point ability.

Liu Mang looked at the bench and said, "Nazir, let's continue to play the pick-and-roll, power forward... Tony, can you shoot a three-pointer?"

"Of course, Ace, if you need me, I can go right away." Kukoc moved his body and said.

It’s not that Kukoc can’t move anymore. He can get a three-year, 3 million contract in the summer. He still has some ability, but now the Eagles’ tactical needs are to dominate the rebounds in positional warfare or to be able to follow the offensive end. Neither Kukoc can do it.

Moreover, Kukoc also has excellent coping ability. He is a tall man who averaged nearly 4 assists per game in his career.

Seeing that there is still half an hour left for ordinary star cards, Liu Mang feels that he can still make a first wave in singles, or should he continue the triangle attack?The absence of the two stars... the one that goes bankrupt and jumps off a building?

……

After the start of the final quarter, the situation on the court was not much different from that of the third quarter. Kobe was directly fouled when he took a shot. Regardless of whether the Eagles made an offense or not, they fouled the opponent's center first.

Liu Mang's single foul Kobe is still very afraid, so Liu Mang's scoring is difficult, but he is also slowly scoring. What Liu Mang wants is to carry Jason Terry and Raheem to recover a little physical strength. There is basically no rest in the three quarters.

The most tiring one was Kobe. Originally thinking that the two strongest opponents were not there, he wanted to take a break on the defensive end and used Richmond to defend against Liu Wei. As a result, Liu Wei directly fouled him and scored 2+1. Kobe immediately switched back and put pressure on Liu Wei on the offensive end.

After playing for a few minutes, after Jason Terry and Raheem replaced, the Eagles replaced the inside substitutes and continued to foul. Like the third quarter, the point difference continued to narrow, and even overtook!
……

With only 3 minutes left in the final quarter, the Eagles succeeded in overtaking by three points 101 to 98!

The Lakers didn't call timeouts before, it was useless at all, the opponent didn't care about their tactics, they fouled anyway.

The scene of the game was very ugly, the fans were a little drowsy, they could still roar in the third quarter, and just applaud in the fourth quarter.

When they tied, Zen master was still stable and was overtaken. Zen master couldn't sit still and called a timeout, looking forward to the Eagles playing normally after this timeout.

During the timeout, the live TV screen played a scene that silenced Eagles fans and scolded non-Hawks fans.

Liu Mang deployed tactics there!
Players deploy tactics...

Not without it, Jordan has done it, so has the magician, and even Steve Kerr at the role player level has done it.

But this tactic makes people want to hit someone!
Too shameless and shameless tactics!
"I just said that this despicable rookie did it! It's so shameless! Despicable, nasty!" Barkley was so angry that he seemed to be Kobe, and he had never had such a sense of substitution for Kobe.

Well, as long as he is Liu Mang's opponent, Barkley will be his own!
"But it's very effective, isn't it? Charles, I think the Lakers are going to have problems next time. Ace has found a way for other teams to deal with the Lakers. Although it's a bit obscene, if it's the playoffs, it's okay to be obscene and shameless." Kenny Smith will always be the one who honestly analyzes the game.

"Tch, if O'Neal is here, this method is useless. Although I don't like O'Neal, he is still very accurate in free throws at critical moments. It is not uncommon for others to use foul tactics against him, but the Lakers have won two consecutive championships. Not every team has three stars who can score independently like the Eagles. Although the rookie hates it, he is really good in singles. I admit that." Although Barkley looks like a fool, his professional level in basketball is still very good.

Barkley thought for a while and continued: "And when O'Neal was here, the Lakers' defense was not like it is now. That shameless rookie couldn't go inside and make fouls wantonly. The Eagles themselves don't have the rhythm of the game and rely entirely on their individual ability to attack. The shark-killing tactics are always two-sided. A good defensive team will not be afraid of the shark-killing tactics. As long as half of the free throws are made, that's enough.

Kenny Smith was stunned for a moment. He has been working together for more than a year and almost two years. This is the first time he saw Barkley analyze a tactic so seriously!
"Is there any more?" Kenny Smith still wanted to hear more analysis from Barclay, which was so rare.

"So..." Barkley drew a long tail.

"So?" Kenny Smith wondered what Barkley would say.

"So... the Lakers championship!"

……

……

Coach Kruger thinks it's time to play normally!
It can't really be delayed until the last 2 minutes, and my side didn't widen the point difference. The main reason is that they fell behind too much in the first half. Up to the second half, the Eagles have scored 16 points more than the Lakers, and they only lead by 3 points.

It is a little surprising that a veteran like Kukoc is expensive. As the team's highest-paid player after Raheem and Ratliff, Kukoc's contract is obviously at a premium, but he has experience and can make contributions. He scored two three-pointers in the fourth quarter, and he is the only one in the bench who can throw the ball to Liu Mang who wants the ball from a high position. No one else can.

Although the Eagles are playing fast break scoring has become the main scoring method as the season progresses, they still attach great importance to positional warfare. It is indeed a surprise that Kukoc can still have such a performance.

Coach Kruger has some ideas about whether to include the triangle offense as one of the conventional tactics.

Kukoc, who was in good form today, continued to be deployed at small forward with Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Raheem, and Mohammed.

After the timeout, the Lakers sent a combination of Fisher, Kobe, Fox, Horry, and Samaki-Walker.

Both teams are small lineups.

Although Kukoc is two meters one, he often played small forward when he was under Zen Master.

The final battle!
