Legend of Tomorrow

On the evening of the 7th, the Lakers away VS Rockets, Guo Xu as a substitute as usual.

The first quarter confrontation was somewhat unexpected. Veteran Olajuwon made 4 of 5 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 10 points, 3 rebounds and 1 steal in a single quarter. O’Neal scored 2 of 4 shots in the defense of the Rockets and only scored 4 points. Rebound 2 assists.

Rudy Tomjanovich is the greatest coach in Rockets history. The Rockets led him only in two wins.

In the 1995 playoffs, the Rockets had only 47 wins in the regular season, but eventually won the championship. It can be seen that Tang Shuai is not afraid of calm and strategic planning in the overall situation.

That year, the Rockets Finals swept the Magic 4-0, O’Neal had no temper to play, and he couldn’t prevent the “Dream” from scoring defensively. Olajuwon averaged over 30 points per game, and Tang Shuai knew how to deal with O’Neal’s team.

Olajuwon ’s footsteps are like Du Gu Nine Swords. Seeing all the moves, they are endless, and they are all basic movements. They are very gorgeous when connected in series. Now he is old and his physical fitness is seriously declining. There are still ways to help the team with technology and CIC.

Kobe Bryant scored 9 points in a quarter, helping the Lakers bite the score, 20 to 22 behind.

The coaches of the two sides were very tacit and did not call a timeout, and did not adjust the substitutions. The five starters played the whole session.

In the second quarter, Guo Xu played, and the other four were Leder, George, Horry, O’Neill.

Rocket center is Jason Coral, who is 213cm tall and weighs 118kg. The other four are Francis, Mobley, Sandton Anderson, Kenny Thomas.

“Zen Master” Jackson did not arrange tactics for Guo Xu, still the main low O’Neal. When O’Neal attracted a double-pointer, Guo Xu received the ball and shot, Leder could use the strength advantage to beat Mobley, the three formed a triangle.

Jackson’s plan is to attack the opponent’s weaknesses. Coral is the first 15 rookies this year and has little experience; Mobley is the 12th pick in the second round in 1998, with a height of 193CM and a weight of 86 kg.

As a result, O’Neill’s state is very bad today. Corral did not take advantage of the counterpoint, and his back was difficult to squeeze into the restricted area.

The Rockets selected center Pulzbila in the ninth place this year, and then bought Corral on draft day, optimistic about his defensive ability.

Coral attack is sparse, the advantage is excellent upper limb strength, stable undercarriage. He is very good at fighting, can do the job of Flesh Shield, and is suitable for dealing with O’Neill.

In Guo Xu’s previous life, Yao Ming admired Coral when he first joined the Rockets, because his dumbbell weight gave Yao Ming, who was a rookie, the urge to “hang from the southeast.”

It’s a pity that people are not as good as day. Correll is now full of enthusiasm, but according to the original historical trajectory, he will soon become the famous “glass man” in the league. He has been seriously injured for two consecutive years, and his level has dropped sharply. .

Coral joined the Hawks in the 03-04 season and scored 11.3 points, 5.6 rebounds and 0.9 assists in 20 games. The career best data. In the 04-05 season, Coral played 70 games and scored 5.7 points and 2.6 rebounds. When he adapted to the NBA, Coral died suddenly during the offseason due to “abnormal heart enlargement caused by a sudden cardiac rhythm disorder”, at the age of 28.

Outside Ryder was even worse. He made 0 of 3 shots. It was only accidental to play the Clippers. He also failed to guard Mobley, his opponent ran for a catch and made two three-pointers.

Mobley averaged 15.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists last season. He is more heavily used this season and is in an upswing. No. 2 Lakers have no advantage.

Guo Xu didn’t have the right to concentrate on the defensive end. He tried his best to go to Ca Francisco’s breakthrough route, making it impossible to rush. Francis’ emergency stop jumper he couldn’t help, the shot was too high, and the forward was difficult to block.

Guo Xu feels that Francis’s style of play is a bit like “Turtle” Westbrook. If he gets better, the jumper will be a rare trick.

Francis cut the ball without a goal and Guo Xu didn’t defend well. His explosive force was too strong and his height was superior. Once he received a pass near the penalty area and O’Neill did not help defense, Guo Xu could only foul.

Guo Xu was replaced after only 5 minutes of play. Both outside shots missed the rim. Without anyone covering him, he wanted to get rid of Francis. It was very difficult and his body was completely crushed.

Both sides scored very low, the Lakers trailed 37 to 43 and ended the first half.

Both O’Neal and Coral have 6 points and 2 rebounds. Surprisingly, O’Neal is not as efficient as a rookie, making 2 of 5 shots and 2 of 4 free throws.

Guo Xu didn’t score, didn’t rebound, didn’t assist, the data was only two fouls.

Back to the locker room, Bryant looked at O’Neill’s eyes a little dissatisfied. He suspected that the fat guy had gone out and fooling around last night, and he was playing crazy, and he was soft on the court today.

O’Neill is probably the most hidden of all the nightclub kings, never shot by reporters in Los Angeles, and has an open girlfriend. But his teammates knew he liked to “sneak shots” when he was away, and he was willing to spend money.

Is a knife on the front of the character, especially for athletes. Once too much energy is spent on women, it will definitely affect the performance on the field.

The contradiction of the “OK combination” is largely due to the fact that Austrian fat was lazy in the regular season and accumulated a little. Kobe’s desire to win is very strong, he hopes to win every game, even in the team training game he is very serious.

When Kobe can’t win with all his strength, he hopes his teammates can work as hard as he does, but now he is only playing support and can’t control Austrian fat. And his performance in this quarter was also terrible ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ 1 of 2 shots, only 2 points and 1 rebound, 11 points in the half.

In the second half, “OK Group” continued to slump. In the third quarter O’Neal made 0 of 3 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, only 2 points and 1 assist; Kobe Bryant was 1 of 4 shots, also 2 points and 1 assist.

Robert Horry, who played 7 minutes in this quarter, made 0 of 4 shots, and his good evacuation did not play out.

Guo Xu finally opened the Rockets backup point guard Norris. He made 3 of 4 shots and scored 6 points and 1 assist. For the Lakers, this point was a tremendous salary, and the team only scored 15 points in the whole quarter.

The only good news is that the Rockets’ offense is also bad. Only Francis played well and scored 9 points, and the team only scored 15 points in a single quarter.

52 to 58, the two sides stalemate into the end.

“Zen Master” Jackson made another mistake. Regardless of the star’s sluggish status, he began to die hard and insisted on playing triangle offense tactics. In order to prevent Francis, Jackson also let Brian Shaw play, Guo Xu rested.

Played for 5 minutes, Jackson replaced the offensive end of no performance, but the excellent defensive Fox, replaced Leder. This substitution has become a turning point in the game. Ryder Mobley broke out, hitting two midrange shots, a three-pointer, fouling two free throws and scoring 9 points, the Rockets hit a wave to widen the point difference to 14 points.

With 4 minutes left to play, Jackson replaced Guo Xu and asked him to play a pick-and-roll with O’Neal. He tried to rely on the defender’s breakthrough to save the disadvantage. It was too late.

Guo Xu made 1 of 3 shots after playing and sent two assists to O’Neal. If the Lakers are desperate to send a few people who can shoot, they may still have a chance to make a three-pointer, but Jackson requires the position to play mainly, Guo Xu can’t afford the rhythm.

74 to 84 at the end, the defending champion suffered the first defeat of the new season.
