NBA: Sharks cry, can't stand this center

Can eliminate the Jazz 4:0 in the first round.

It is because the Utah Shuangsha has become the second elder brother of Utah, and the strength of the Jazz is the bottom in the playoffs. Coupled with Wei Guo's outstanding performance and the enmity between the Rockets and the Jazz, it is not difficult to sweep the Jazz.

The Lakers are not the soft persimmons of the Jazz.

Second round of playoffs...

The goal of the Lakers is not to avoid a sweep, but to defeat the Rockets and reach the Western Conference Finals.

.........

The warm-up is over, and the arena is already overcrowded.

Starting lineup for this game:

Rockets: Francis, Mobley, Wei Guo, Thomas, Dayao

Lakers: Fisher, Kobe, George, Horry, O'Neal

"Beep!!!"

With the whistle sounded, the game began.

Francis got the ball, dribbled to the frontcourt, Wei Guo ran from the penalty area to the outside line, attracting the defense.

Francis singles Fisher and makes a step-back shot!

"Shh!!!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

2:0! ! !

The Rockets scored first.

"Tactical success!"

Gentry said with a smile: "The Lakers will definitely let Kobe and Horry double-team David, so Francis is a stable scoring point."

Francis still has a great advantage against Fisher.

The Lakers were not in a hurry. Fisher dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and organized the offense patiently. After passing the ball to Horry, Horry didn't get a chance to make a phone call, so he passed the ball back outside the three-point line. The ball, and passed the ball to Kobe.

As soon as Kobe received the ball, Wei Guo stopped in front of him.

Kobe is the first scoring point for the Lakers...must be defended by David.

Many head coaches in the league said in interviews that the player they want to coach the most is Wei Guo. There is no way... One can play from the 1st position to the 5th position, and can also defend from the 5th position to the 1st position Which coach doesn't like the best players? After owning Weiguo, tactics can be more flexible.

This is the figment of the rest of the league's head coaches.

Only Gentry knows how happy it is to coach Weiguo. He doesn't even need to arrange tactics. Many pre-match tactics are arranged by Weiguo.

"You can't shoot in front of Weiguo!"

Kobe reminded himself in his heart.

The cross-step dribble broke through from the left side of Weiguo, and after hitting the basket, Kobe took off against Weiguo's defense. In order to avoid being blocked by Weiguo, Kobe stayed in the air for a short period of time, and shot when his body fell.

"Snapped..."

Wei Guo's fingertips still picked up the basketball.

The basketball flew into the air, and Wei Guo took off immediately after landing, grabbed the basketball and held it in his arms, and did not forget to tease Kobe, "I guessed that you will have a period of time in the air when you shoot, unfortunately...my time in the air is shorter than You are longer."

"!!!"

Kobe snorted and ran to the backcourt to defend.

Kobe is not the only one, there are many players in the league who will have an inexplicable feeling when facing Wei Guo, Wei Guo seems to be able to see through all their tricks.

This see through...

It's not something that can be done by playing against each other a few times, or analyzing the video of the game.

........

In the first quarter of the game, both teams were testing each other.

Offense and defense are relatively reasonable...

Wei Guo needed to help Dayao defend O'Neal, and also gave Kobe some opportunities to make calls, and Kobe seized these opportunities.

27:27! ! !

At the end of the first quarter, the two sides tied.

For the Lakers, Kobe Bryant scored 7 points on 3-of-9 shots in the first quarter and was the Lakers' highest scoring player. On the Rockets side, David scored 9 points on 5-of-13 shooting and was the Rockets' highest-scoring player.

Rockets bench.

Wei Guo held the tactical board and said: "The Lakers' bench is very weak. This is the main reason why they are only ranked fifth in the Western Conference this season. The second quarter is the key to us opening the score."

"Correct!"

All the players nodded, and looked at Wei Guo together, "Brother Wei, tell me how to play."

Wei Guo put down the tactical board again, "It's very simple...I will not rest, I will play the full 48 minutes, Dayao and Mobley will rest for 3 minutes, and I will be the core of the offense in the second quarter."

actually...

The Rockets have the same weakness as the Lakers, that is, the bench lineup is weak.

But it's because Wei Guo is too strong, and the Rockets have a relatively reasonable lineup. Except for Wei, Francis's four main players are not weak, and Wei Guo is fully present this season. The more critical the moment is, the more accurate it is, which makes the Rockets the leader in the West. .

Wei Guo also thought about it.

If you change teams next season, do you want to consider which team to change first, and then buy the team first.

so...

Wei Guo can lower his salary so that the team has enough salary space to match the most reasonable lineup.

........

The second quarter begins.

Wei Guo continued to stay on the court, and the same...Kobe also continued to stay on the court.

It seems...

Zen master and Wei Guo have the same ideas and know each other's shortcomings, so the absolute main force of the team has to fight until the moment when the winner is decided.

Francis dribbled the ball, Wei Guo got stuck at the basket and asked for the ball.

Francis lobbed the ball to Weiguo, Weiguo caught the ball and turned around to squeeze Madsen away, jumping from the spot was a two-handed slam dunk.

"Boom!!!"

The basketball hoop shook.

After a successful slam dunk, Wei Guo looked down at Madsen, "What's your name?"

"Brother Wei..."

Madsen whispered, "My name is Madsen. We played against each other in the Finals last year."

"The next time I dunk, you stay away, don't be in the background."

Wei Guo gave Madsen a kind reminder.

Madsen was still in a daze, but Kobe came over and said with a cold face: "Don't be disturbed by Wei Guo, this person is very bad."

Lakers offense.

Kobe dribbled to the front court and chased for a three-pointer!

"Shh!!!"

Basketball hit the net.

29:30! ! !

This three-pointer was so sudden that even Wei Guo didn't predict it, so he was a step slower in defense.

The Lakers lead by 1 point.

Less than 2 minutes into the second quarter, O'Neal also returned to the court. In the first round of the playoffs against the Mavericks, Kobe and O'Neal played more than 40 minutes.

Especially Kobe...

Kobe played more than 45 minutes in every game.

"Dayao, you replace Thomas."

Gentry patted Yao, "Kobe needs Brother Wei to defend this point, you and Posey try to limit O'Neal's scoring as much as possible."

O'Neal will definitely blow up the Rockets inside.

This is impossible...

Wei Guo has no avatar skills. Between Kobe and O'Neal, he can only choose to take care of one person. Wei Guo took care of O'Neal in the finals last year, and it's Kobe's turn in this year's playoffs.
