Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 176 The Ubiquitous Offensive Triangle!
"Kobe, added individual ball-handling.

This season, Bryant has become increasingly unstoppable on the offensive end. "Kenny Smith said with a smile.

"Next, watch the Magic attack.

McGrady took the ball to the frontcourt, Kobe led the defense, and Jackson came to cover.

I want to give McGrady a chance to single out Billups. "

"The Lakers shrunk their lineup, saw the Magic outside screen, and immediately flanked.

The defense of the Lakers is still the zone defense tactics of the Li Mu era. "

On the field.

Jackson was left short.

After all, he has the weakest reputation. In the second round of 97, he had the lowest pick. This season can be described as a rookie season.

McGrady has averaged 40+ per game in these games.

The Lakers naturally know how to choose.

Billups' defense is not bad, but when McGrady plays point guard, the dislocation advantage is too obvious.

To deal with this kind of striker tactics that don't talk about martial arts.

Naturally, the Lakers can't be so rigid.

McGrady went to the bullhorn zone, and after being flanked by Kobe and Billups, he did not choose to pass the ball.

He wants to show his tough side, pull up the ball, pull up two point jumpers...

Billups held out his hands.

Kobe stood up with all his strength, trying to cover McGrady's eyes.

Basketball, draw a beautiful arc.

Bang-dang-!
"McGrady's shot hit the iron hard.

Big Ben took off the rebound and quickly scored the ball to meet Billups.

After turning around and taking a step, and avoiding the defense, Billups made a long pass while running..."

The Lakers quickly counterattacked.

Kobe took the lead and rushed to the frontcourt.

After receiving the rebound, bang, he dribbled a step, pulled the ball up, blocked McGrady's chasing defense with his body, dodged in the air, and dunked with one hand.

boom--!
0 to 4! !
Kobe scored with a sharp counterattack.

In the 00/01 season, Kobe in the triangle tactics was also very slack in offense.

He averaged 29 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game.

Also a top-five favorite for the scoring title.

Li Mu shook his head, he is most familiar with the combination of defense + counterattack.

Kobe, who rushed up, was one of the best in the league, almost giving away points.

That's not the most important thing.

The most important thing is the defensive zone defense tactics.

This is not easy to break!
You must know that the personal abilities of the Lakers players have increased again.

On the field.

McGrady continued to play screens with Jackson.

Fighting against Kobe alone is not terrible. In terms of efficiency, it will definitely drop a lot.

If Billups is singled out, he feels that the efficiency will be better.

The Lakers used their mobility to still flank McGrady.

McGrady stabilized and passed the basketball to Jackson.

Lewis quickly made up the defense, and Billups quickly returned to the defense.

Jackson didn't wave, but handed over the basketball to Duncan.

Catching the ball with his back, Duncan felt the strength in Big Ben's hand and it strengthened again.

I can't squeeze it anymore.

Immediately, he turned to face the basket, lifted the ball and swung it, and Da Ben opened his hand to block the path of the ball.

Duncan took a step to the bottom line, raised his hand to hit the board and shot a jump shot...

Big Ben's cap was late.

Bang, bang——!
Duncan's signature shot hit the board, and the iron went wide.

"Tonight, the Magic don't seem to be in good shape!

Isn't it all about the holidays?
However, the Lakers did a good job defensively at the beginning, showing a mature defensive system both individually and as a team.

The rebound was picked off by O'Neal, the offense and defense were switched, and Billups received the ball and advanced to the frontcourt..."

On the left, Billups found that O'Neal was surrounded by O'Neal, and immediately passed the ball to Lewis on the side of the three-point line. Then, the outside cut hand returned the basketball to the left corner.

At this time, Billups, Lewis and O'Neal inside form an offensive triangle.

Little O'Neal was afraid of being hit by Billups at the back door, so he couldn't focus on marking O'Neal.

Moreover, Billups can also shoot three-pointers.

Whether it breaks through, goes to the basket, or makes a three-pointer from the corner.

The defense of the Magic will be tested.

Billups didn't shoot, and he didn't rush.

Instead, the ball was passed to O'Neal who received the ball with his back.

After O'Neal leaned against O'Neal Jr., it became the axis of the triangle.

Lewis and Billups, both moving from left to right.

They all pass through the paint area, and catching the ball is the opportunity to score at the basket.

Jackson and Hill, were taken to the right weakside area.

On the commentary stage, Barkley grinned and explained with a smile.

"It's the triangle offense.

Standing 122, the point guard cuts outside to form an offensive triangle.

Pass the pivot to O'Neal, and the other two corners move to the weak side.

At this time, O'Neal got the chance to single out O'Neal Jr.

The soul of the triangle offense is to create a lot of heads-up opportunities for the stars. "

On the field.

With the left zone, the defense is taken away.

It's the weak side again here.

Bang-!
O'Neill turned his back and slammed hard suddenly.

Little O'Neal was knocked away, and before he recovered, O'Neal's next attack has arrived again.

I saw him turn around, continue to break into the space, and force the basket.

With a bang, O'Neill hung the southeast branch by himself.

0 to 6! !
Off the court, Jackson nodded.

The triangle offensive tactics are becoming more and more proficient.

It can only be said that the Lakers lineup is too damn suitable.

Kobe and O'Neal, let's not talk about these two points.

Billups also played very smartly at this point, and he will do it at one point.

If so, I can sleep.

"This is the tip of the iceberg of the triangle offense!

This is too bad to defend. "

Off the court, Li Mu frowned.

In the past, the Lakers broke through this intensive defense by relying on outside three-pointers and Kobe's off-ball tactics.

Now the Lakers can still shoot three-pointers, off the ball tactics, it is no longer a Kobe running.

Instead, except for the axis, they are all running in a triangle formation.

This……

It's not good to pinch O'Neill again.

Because, the pulling of the Lakers' offensive space is no longer just outside shooting.

"The gap seems a little big.

Still have to look more. "

On the field.

McGrady was in a hurry to attack.

Offensive selection is also somewhat simple.

Outside the three-point line in the front court, raising your hand is a three-point jump shot...

"In this offensive round, McGrady's shot was very unreasonable. Kobe's defense was on the inside, and it was too late to save...

Swish-!
in!

Three points from McGrady. "

3 to 6! !
The Magic finally, finally scored to stop the bleeding.

This is the personal ability of the star.

Lakers offense.

Or Billups cut outside to the bottom corner.

O'Neal suddenly moved outside to catch the ball.

Just when Jackson and Hill were staring at Billups and Lewis.

Big Ben on the right suddenly made an empty cut to the basket.

Bryant also moved inside.

At this time, O'Neal, Ben, and Kobe formed another offensive triangle.

The most terrifying thing is not the formation of any triangle, but the defense in the right area, all of which were taken away.

Kobe had only McGrady in front of him.

O'Neal passed the ball to Lewis, who quickly passed the ball to Bryant.

"One-on-one again.

Kobe singled out McGrady, and it was still a single with plenty of offensive space.

Phil Jackson's three-point offensive tactics have slowly taken shape. "

"The Lakers' offensive triangle is everywhere..."
