Chapter 670 Comprehensive Analysis, Prepare for the Semi-Finals!
The west, which originally thought that Mars would hit the earth, ended the first round early, while the east, which originally thought it would be calm, actually played a series that shocked everyone. Sure enough, the prediction before the game was just to see. ESPN It is predicted that the Green Army will advance 4-0 and at most 4-1.
After the end of the G6 between the Green Army and the Eagles, Pierce, who was interviewed after the game, no longer had the calmness he had at the end of the third game. Facing reporters' questions about the cooperation of the Big Three and the coach's tactics, Pierce said very hotly. : "There is no problem with the cooperation between us! Rivers is a very good coach, his tactics are very good, but we lack some luck on the court!"
Garnett also denies that there is a coordination problem between the Big Three, and at the same time says that Rondo is the most underrated point guard in the league.
And Ray Allen also said they would win in Game 7.
But although everyone knows that the reason why the Green Shirts were so embarrassed by the Eagles is that the cooperation between the stars is not tacit enough. The three games they lost averaged less than 20 assists per game, and the lowest game was only 12. Second, this means that more of their points come from the individual singles of the stars, which means that they are a team that eats a lot of individual ability.
This is actually unavoidable. After all, last season's Green Army has always been a fish belly, and it has been a fish belly for more than ten years. Although this team is very strong on paper, in the final analysis, it is a team that has just been formed. It lacks Tacit understanding is something that is hard to avoid.
However, Garnett has a good saying that Rondo's role in this Celtic team is very important. Although his scoring ability is very poor, he can hardly shoot three-pointers, and has zero breakthrough offensive means, but he averages 10 per game. An assist really saved a life. Without him, the Green Army would not have been able to play like this this season. Without his tandem ability, the Green Army would struggle even more.
After all, the accumulation of stars is not equal to the championship. The Lakers in 2004 have proved this with practical actions. If they cannot be well integrated into the team's system, the more stars they are, the faster they will be destroyed.
Ji Feng believes that Ray Allen's loss is the main reason why the Green Army played so hard. Ray Allen was a very good outside scorer in the Supersonics, but the Green Army transformed him into a mobile fort. From a good player with the ball, to a player who catches the ball and shoots the ball.
This is a tactical problem for Rivers. His coaching philosophy is to emphasize the integrity of the team. Ray Allen, Garnett and Pierce are all sacrificing their own data to integrate into this system. There is nothing wrong with it. The same is true of development trends.
For players like Ray Allen who pay attention to personal skills, it is difficult to adapt to such a tactical system, and it is normal to be temporarily lost, but if the Green Army wants to pass, Ray Allen must break out.
The Lakers also analyzed the 5th and 6th games of the Green Army in training. Zen master is still very concerned about this eastern opponent.
After that, the Lakers spent most of their time analyzing their Western Conference semifinal opponent, the Jazz!
The Lakers played against the Jazz four times this season and completed the sweep. They still have the advantage psychologically, but the Zen master still did not dare to be careless. On May 4, the day before the game, the first sentence that the Zen master called everyone together was: "We The semi-final opponent is the Jazz, a tough opponent. They have entered the Western Conference semi-finals for three consecutive years. Although we swept them in the regular season, this is the second round of the playoffs. We cannot underestimate any opponent! understand!"
"Understood!" A group of strong men, but their expressions were still very relaxed.
"The Jazz and the Nuggets are fundamentally different, believe me, that guy Sloan is more difficult than you think!" Zen master continued.
Ji Feng listened and nodded. Sloan's original generation of Jazz was definitely a strong force in the league of the last century, and the Bulls met in the finals for two consecutive years. Although the Bulls won, the process was not easy. Instead, the finals were full of crises. The scene of G6 relying on Jordan's stealing mid-range shot seems to be still in sight, and the name of Utah's double evil has spread overseas.
"The Jazz say that they are a team that has been defensive and fierce. They have many defensive players. The bench is deep, the age structure is reasonable, and the inside line has height and hardness. Believe me, they are not on the same level as the Nuggets!" Zen Master Continue to draw on the blackboard.
"And their offense is also very good. They are one of the few teams in the league with both offense and defense. Although Boozer and Deron are not as good as Malone and Stockton, their pick-and-roll is still unsolved, especially for the team. A team with a tall center." Master Zen looked at Bynum.
Bynum scratched his head, saying that this series will be uncomfortable again...
"So, if we can't open up the advantage on the perimeter, our series is likely to capsize."
"But fortunately, we have JK!" The Zen master looked at Kobe and Ji Feng and said.
This is the signal of the Zen master. If their tactics in the first round are mainly to expand from the inside to the outside, then this round they will start from the outside and expand to the inside!
Kobe and Ji Feng are the two most important trump cards in the hands of the Zen master!
"After talking about the offense, let's talk about defense! How to limit the pick-and-roll will be our most important issue. Our main defense focus is on Deron, the new brain of the Jazz. We have to push him away from the three-point line, and at the same time, the pick-and-roll It's time to take an infinite switch!" The defensive coach immediately released a big move.
"Once Boozer or Okur comes up to pick and roll, we switch! Don't give them a chance to play time lag, and Gasol must follow up Boozer to prevent him from making a half-dunk after receiving the ball!"
"Understood!" Ji Feng nodded.
Dayao was driven to death by Boozer's half-dunk, and the Rockets lost in the first round because they couldn't solve Boozer at all!
However, the Lakers are still very confident. Gasol's movement speed is enough to keep up with Boozer. Fisher was directly put on the starting lineup by Zen Master to mark Deron. Muscle to muscle, see who can resist who!
And Ji Feng was assigned a new task by the Zen master!
Get ready to give the Jazz a fresh gift in the first game!
To be honest, Ji Feng couldn't wait a little longer.
In the afternoon, the Lakers had their last training session before the semifinals. Farmar and Radmanovic were responsible for imitating the Utah duo and playing a half-court confrontation.
The analysis this time is obviously immediate, Ji Feng feels that he has a bottom line, and Dayao sent Ji Feng a lot of jazz materials and videos before, and told Ji Feng earnestly: "Help my brother take revenge! "
It seems that Dayao has really been bitter for a long time...
However, just after the training ended and Ji Feng came out of the training hall, he saw James' car parked at the door.
"Ji Feng, my buddy, we have new work to do."
