Four Hundred and Fifty-Seven: [Jackson Who Is Infested with Tigers]
beep!
The whistle sounded, and the game of the second quarter began quickly.
In order to protect Andrew Bynum's knee, Phil Jackson did not let him continue to play in the second quarter, but adopted a small ball lineup with Lamar Odom at center and Luke Walton at the fourth position.
When Phil Jackson offered this lineup, the mobility of the Lakers was greatly improved immediately.
They began to be able to keep pace with the Knicks in the defensive rhythm. And when the Lakers' defense did not lose their position, Nixton, who had not strictly practiced the quick seven-second offensive tactics before, lost his offensive rhythm, especially the two rookies.
This caused the Knicks to be unsmooth on the offensive end.
But ... when the second quarter of the game in the third minute, the Knicks only made 1 of 5 shots to get a three-pointer. Duger changed his strategy, facing senior Jordan Farmar's defense, he didn't show any sympathy. A change of direction outside the three-point line, and then a straight line... Like a running elk, it flashed past Farmar directly!
Although Jordan Farmar already knows that his junior is not what it used to be, his speed is far behind last season.
But... when Snoopy flashed past him, he still felt a huge sense of powerlessness.
When he turned back to chase, Snoopy had already entered the paint area. Luke Walton tries to make a tackle outside the reasonable impact zone, but... BOOM! call out!
Snoopy quickly made an extremely realistic Buddha-style dribble in front of him. Although the action rate was not as sharp as Wade Iverson's, it was enough to deceive Luke Walton. When he strode past Luke Walton and broke into the basket, there was no defense in front of him, he jumped easily, and dunked with both hands...Boom!
Doug kicked off his first sports score of the night with a two-handed dunk!
And the moment he completed the dunk,
The three duke girls cheered loudly almost at the same time.
When they all stood up and raised their hands in cheers.
It instantly became a beautiful and special landscape in the Staples Arena.
TnT's camera also quickly switched to them.
"As long as it's a Snoopy game, we always have to arrange an extra camera." Charles Barkley joked on the TV station: "No one knows which Hollywood female star will suddenly stand up and shout long live the Duke."
That's part of his job, and he's not a traditional p1ay-by-p1ay commentator.
But Earl Johnson frowned. He carefully analyzed the slow motion of Doug's goal just now: "Snoopy's dunk is very representative. His speed is perfectly displayed. But at the same time, we can notice that he has changed. Xiangshi's rate did not increase significantly. But... Snoopy's thinking ability made up for all of this, and his unrestrained way of passing people was connected with his speed. I think that in the matter of 'tricks', There's no one smarter in the nBa than him."
"What is certain is that with the increase in speed, his scoring ability at the basket will be greatly improved."
While Earl Johnson made this analysis, Kobe Bryant fought back in the frontcourt. He singled out Wesley Matthews' defense and hit a pull-up jumper.
look back. Doug takes another hit on Jordan Farmar.
Jordan Farmar has made enough preparations this time, and he doesn't want to give Doug another chance to make a sudden attack.
He believes that part of the reason for the failure of the defense last time was caused by his "carelessness". If he gives himself another chance, he will definitely be able to restrain Duge.
but.
When Duge was seated in front of him, he realized that things were not that simple.
When Snoopy lowered the tempo, let the four teammates spread out, and opened up one-on-one singles, Jordan Farmar immediately felt the overwhelming pressure.
boom!
Doug's first dribble hit the floor hard, and he took a quick step to the left. His speed was not what it used to be, and Jordan Farmer's defense instantly regressed.
While Jordan Farmar retreated, Duke Snoopy seized the time difference and he completed the change of direction. At the same time, he took a step to the right, the speed was still sharp.
This caused Jordan Farmar to fall back and forth defensively.
When he finally moved his defensive footsteps laterally... Whoops!
Snoopy, who had been prepared for a long time, spun with his back, throwing Mr. Farmer's defense behind him.
In this regard, Farmer can only watch the wind and sigh: Snoopy really is not what it used to be.
And after passing Jordan Farmar, Doug directly kills Luke Wharton and lands on the 6th before Luke Wharton moves over to defend. He flies into the air after three steps... Boom!
Another dunk!
Staples Arena was in an uproar.
This caught them off guard.
Lakers fans never dreamed that Doug went straight to the penalty area twice, and dunked. Needless to say, this is a trample on the entire defensive system of the Lakers.
In the uproar, the three duchess girls stood up and cheered again.
Obviously, they have been waiting for the opportunity to make a collective appearance like this.
The three of them appeared here tonight, originally with the idea of announcing to some women that an offensive and defensive alliance has been reached.
Dug did not perform on the scoring side before, and Justin Bieber next to him repeatedly made provocative remarks, making them unable to stand up.
But now, two dunks in a row have become the best reason for them to show off.
"From this moment, at least it can be announced that Snoopy has become a top 20 breakthrough player in the league."
Earl Johnson said: "Snoopy perfectly connects his speed with his dribbling skills. Although we can see that his change rate, lateral movement rate, and even turn rate are not as good as Dwyane Wade. Top-notch driveer. But his skill and imagination belie those things, and he's extremely good at taking tricks. A gorgeous ball-handler with amazing straightness. You can't not put him on the list of drive-ups."
Earl Johnson gave Doug a very high rating.
In fact, Phil Jackson's brows were also tightly frowned at this time. The situation facing the Lakers now made him a little anxious.
With Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum not playing, and Snoopy's breakthrough ability suddenly improved, Luke Walton and Lamar Odom couldn't support the defense line of the penalty area at all.
"We should make some changes in defense." Assistant coach Tex Winter, who followed Phil Jackson to win 10 championships, told Phil Jackson beside him.
In fact, he reminds his old partner whenever the game enters a moment like this.
Phil Jackson frowned and glanced at the bench. He shook his head.
He knew that switching to Bynum to fill the paint was an immediate choice. But now Bynum has just returned from injury, he doesn't want Bynum to play more than 20 minutes tonight.
"Let Ron Artest try in the past?" Winter suggested: "Artest's lateral movement and physical confrontation are very good, and his physical confrontation ability is enough to cause trouble for Snoopy."
Phil Jackson did not respond. This is a choice to lose sight of the other. Ron Artest's defense of Snoopy in the past will indeed limit Dug's offensive to some extent, at least it will not be used as an ATM like Jordan Farmar. But at the same time, Artest goes to the top of the arc to defend the No. 1 position. Who will give the flank?
In the end, Jackson just sat there.
He didn't change any tactics.
Let Snoopy continue to hit the penalty area.
On the Lakers side, Kobe Bryant carried the entire game.
The two competed in the air, and one was possessed by killing gods in the middle distance. One is sharp in the paint!
The scores of the two teams also rose alternately in the soaring points of the two.
This is very much in line with Phil Jackson's psychological expectations, and this is what he wants. He wants to see Doug's offensive logic clearly in this way, and at the same time let Andrew Bynum take more rest and make his emotions more positive.
Jackson is a very good psychological master, he is very good at manipulating players' psychology. Crazy as Dennis Rodman is also subdued by his management, and a small guy like Andrew Bynum is no problem.
Throughout the second quarter, Bynum came over to him at least three times and told him that he wanted to play and try to limit Snoopy from playing wild at the basket.
But Phil Jackson's answer is always: keep calm, take a good look at his breakthrough logic, and I will give you a chance.
These deliberate suppression made Bynum more and more eager to fight.
In fact, Ron Artest winked at Phil Jackson more than once, saying that he would switch defenses against Snoopy.
However, Phil Jackson didn't allow either.
He is 'raising wolves', and he wants these two players to accumulate enough anger and momentum before facing Snoopy.
Based on this situation, once the two sides fight, they will definitely display even 120% of their strength, thus defeating Snoopy in one fell swoop.
And once Snoopy is under control, the outcome of this game will completely lose suspense.
Phil Jackson is very good at this kind of 'psychological intervention'.
And, the success rate is very high.
However, there was one other thing he forgot tonight.
That is... Snoopy is also gaining ground for rapid improvement while he is feeding the "rage" of Ron Artest and Andrew Bynum.
He has not mastered 'speed' for a long time, and it has not perfectly integrated with his own technology. In the process, Phil Jackson indulged Snoopy because of Kobe Bryant's existence. This indulgence gave him a hundred times the effect of private training. He constantly refines his own skills through the Lakers' defense, allowing all technical actions to be quickly connected to form a whole.
When the halftime whistle sounded, Kobe Bryant missed a shot at the buzzer.
68:68.
The two sides tied again in the first half. Moreover, the half-time scores of both sides are frighteningly high.
And Kobe Bryant's 26 points in the second quarter set a record for scoring in a single quarter this season.
It is worth mentioning that Snoopy also scored 15 points in a single quarter.
Among them, 4 dunks, 2 layups, and 3 free throws.
In other words, all of his points came from around the basket.
"I seem to see red wine from 1982 waving to me!"
Charles Barkley was elated when he commented on the ball at halftime. He didn't expect Snoopy to score 15 points in a single quarter and 19 points in a half tonight.
"I think you should be cautiously optimistic. I don't think the Lakers will give Snoopy the chance to score easily at the basket in the second half." Earl Johnson poured cold water on Charles Barkley.
At this time, TnT's sideline reporter interviewed Andrew Bynum on the sidelines of the game.
Bynum played very well in the first quarter, but he was dropped in the second.
This made the sideline reporter very curious when he asked about it.
Bynum's expression was obviously dissatisfied: "This is the decision of the head coach. What I can do is to follow his opinion. But if I get a chance to play in the second half, I will definitely prove to the coaching team that I am healthy. At the same time, Jean Nuby knows that the Lakers restricted area is not his backyard."
"So, you will give him some blocks at the basket?" The reporter raised his eyebrows and asked deliberately.
"I promise there will never be only one!" Bynum said through gritted teeth, he seemed to be swearing!
