Chapter 729 The Lakers’ New System

"It's too strong. It's really rare for players like this to change the situation of the game as soon as they come on the field." Cole pursed his lips, thinking of the former boss.

"As expected of Kobe." Corsi sighed. At that time three years ago, he might not have been able to guard against Kobe, let alone the invincible Kobe now.

"I really want to play like Kobe. Will I become such a player one day?" Ginobili looked at Kobe's broad back and revealed a hint of admiration. The proud Pampas Eagle felt such emotions for the first time.

Just 3 minutes!

Kobe evened the 10-point difference!

Even if Duncan is there! He still can't do anything to Kobe!

Kobe didn't even try to force Duncan. He cleverly used his containment and unsolvable outside shooting to lead the Lakers bench in a 14:4 scoring wave.

After Kobe took the lead in defending the ball holder, it became difficult for Duncan to connect the ball.

Shi Fo had to move to the high post and even outside the three-point line to help his teammates handle the ball.

And this resulted in a sudden reduction in his chances of launching an attack directly.

"Tie." Duncan gasped. He had to admit that his team leadership ability was still not as good as Kobe's.

The lineups of the two teams should not be much different, both are top five substitutes in the league. The only difference is between Kobe and Duncan, and Kobe used his super high basketball IQ to make Duncan punch the cotton!

Duncan tried his best to beat Gekko, but he never had the chance.

"Spurs timeout!"

Popovich chose to pause and replaced all starters.

There is no other way.

Even though Cole and Wang Zhizhi have very good three-pointers, their defense is never as good as the starting players.

As for Harris, Eddie Jones and Bowen, who had poor touch, were placed off the court. The Spurs did not have many scoring points from the outside. The Lakers needed the impact of Ginobili and Stephen Jackson to liberate Kobe.

The Lakers' lineup became - Kobe, Yaodao, Wusheng, Horry, O'Neal.

"It's rare for the Lakers to let starters and substitutes play together!"

"Manu Ginobili! This is the fourteenth game of this year's No. 23 rookie, and it is also his first game with the main team this season!"

"Stephen Jackson gave us too many surprises last year, and this year's Lakers are just as good! They can often produce explosive scoring performances in limited time!"

"The outside combination of these three players seems to be a greater offensive threat than the Lakers' original starting lineup?" Popovich's heart tightened!

He really didn't expect that Silver Fox Harris would put up such a lineup that had never appeared in the regular season.

Is this a cunning hidden killing move of Silver Fox, or is it a clever idea to create a mystery?

"Take turns to break through!"

"The Lakers' style of play has changed! Kobe breaks through and scores! Ginobili breaks through and scores! Stephen Jackson breaks through and scores again!"

"They took turns to get inside, but when faced with Duncan and General's defense, they didn't force the shot and passed the ball to the outside!"

"Smoothly moving the ball! The Spurs' defense was completely distracted by the Lakers perimeter players led by Kobe!"

"If Kobe hadn't broken through to open the first hole, the other Lakers players wouldn't have been able to break through so easily! But when Kobe gets inside, can the Spurs not make up the position? Once the position is made up, it's an opportunity!"

"So smart! The basketball IQs of other Lakers players are also extremely high, team basketball! I actually saw team basketball in a team that has always been based on superstar ball!"

"Can this basketball offense be so layered?" Popovich bit his lip.

Although the Spurs were badly beaten by Kobe!

But Pop seems to have seen a new basketball path, and Kobe has only just opened up this path. This style of play still has a lot of room for improvement!

Fantastic! This style of play simply scratched the soft spot in Popovich's heart!

"Is it possible for the Spurs to implement this style of play?"

The current Spurs defensive system is very well established. In addition to facing the Lakers, their defense will be defeated even if the Hornets come.

However, the offensive system is still relatively simple, relying on Admiral Duncan's low-post twin towers and Richmond's sudden cold arrows from the outside as the core.

"No, there are too few breakthrough players." This lineup seems to need a lot of pitchers, but in fact, what is needed more is breakthrough players.

There must be players who can get in and create a threat.

Popovich is very angry!

What if Ginobili hadn't been intercepted by the Lakers?

So now if Ginobili and Richmond take turns breaking through and scoring the ball, the team's offense will probably rise to a higher level!

Damn Lakers! Damn Kobe!

"Tim Duncan! Crush Horry again to finish the game!"

"David Robinson, unguarded hit from mid-range!"

The Lakers' scoring efficiency is very high, but the Spurs are no less generous!

Shi Buddha and the general are on full fire!

They played as determinedly as they did in the playoffs!

"Must win!"

"The team depends on us now!"

Duncan and the Admiral cheer each other up!

O'Neal's slow pace forced him to defend in the penalty area, while Duncan and the General were both players with stable shooting skills from the mid-range!

"It's a stalemate! The game is in a stalemate!"

"The Lakers' lineup system is extremely effective, but the Spurs relied on the singles of Shi Buddha and the general to survive the most difficult period in the second quarter!"

"End of halftime! Lakers 57:54 Spurs! The Spurs are only 3 points behind!"

"Kobe scored 27 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 1 block at halftime!"

"Tim Duncan scored 19 points, 13 rebounds, 2 assists, 4 blocks and 2 steals!"

"David Robinson scored 13 points and 7 rebounds!"

"Shaquille O'Neal scored 10 points and 8 rebounds!"

"Manu Ginobili scored 9 points and 4 assists!"

O'Neill and Manu groaned and gasped.

After O'Neal gained weight, he was really unable to cope with the alternating impact of David Robinson and Duncan.

It's not that he's unwilling to defend!

But I really can’t keep up with my pace!

On the offensive end, he has been trying to regain the field, which also consumes a lot of physical energy.

This caused him to consume a lot of physical energy, but he failed to defend his opponents and did not score too many points.

As for Yaodao, with his current physical condition, there is really no way he can withstand the high-intensity confrontation of the NBA for a long time.

Kobe shook his head helplessly. It seemed that in the second half, no one could stand up and bear the offensive pressure for him.

Whatever.

This time, I just wanted to try it out and see what the scoring limit is like with a sharpshooter.
