Sun Hao frowned.

The old Dunleavy didn't say it during the timeout, but directly yelled at the field.

It's not just about encouraging players.

Although he is familiar with a series of classics such as "Position" and "Emotional Intelligence", he has matured a lot compared to when he first entered the league.

But who doesn't have a passionate heart in basketball?

Especially someone like him who was influenced by "Slam Dunk" in his previous life!

So at this moment, he had already made up his mind.

You say you can't win, but I will show you how to win!

At this time, Fisher heard the voice of old Dun Levy approaching Sun Hao.

Sun Hao did not attack rashly.

O'Neal went off, and the Lakers threatened to fall from Mount Everest to the Mariana Trench inside.

As long as he breaks into the free throw line, double-teaming is certain.

This is why the old Dunleavy shouted so much, because the Clippers now only need to focus on taking care of him on the defensive end.

You must have a passionate heart, but if you can't come up, you will be reckless.

He calls Gotattra up high for the pick-and-roll.

Although Gortat usually has no chance to play, and the two rarely cooperate, he still understands Gortat's technical characteristics.

"Teaming! Double-teaming!"

Old Dunleavy was already shouting from the sidelines.

Sun Hao still dares to let the pick-and-roll at this time, it is not human not to double-team!

"boom!"

However, sometimes not everything goes as one wishes.

Fisher saw Gortat's pick-and-roll coming and was about to go around early, but...

He didn't go around!

Gortat is 2.11 meters tall and weighs 103 kilograms. This figure is obviously on the thin side.

But his flexibility is much higher than imagined!

There is no time for Fisher to go around again, because Sun Hao has already crossed Bynum and entered the inside line!

Gasol at the basket came out to help defend, plus Bynum chasing and Fisher bypassing the pick-and-roll.

The Clippers gave Sun Hao the svip treatment of a three-person double team.

However, just before the double team formed, Sun Hao passed the ball out! !

And judging from his movement and timing of playing the ball, it is obvious that he was prepared in advance.

Following the direction of the pass, everyone, including the three who went to double-team Sun Hao, noticed that Gortat had gone down to the basket.

This subconsciously, top-notch!

Because he is a rookie and had little playing time before, not to mention the fans, even the Clippers don't understand Gortat's technical characteristics!

In the eyes of most people, you, a rookie who has never played before, are probably at a loss when you come up.

However, no one expected that this guy's pick-and-roll quality and subconsciousness would be so good!

In fact, Gortat does not have any big-hearted attributes. He is similar to what most people think, and he is also nervous.

When people are nervous, most of them will follow their instincts to do things.

In other words, Gortat's pick-and-roll and run-down are all his instincts.

This is what he does the most in Europe and what he is best at.

With ten cents added, Gortat sent the ball into the basket even though his hands were trembling.

He just scored the first goal of his NBA playoff career.

Excited and exciting, but a little confused for the first time!

11 levels!

This ball helped the Lakers tie the score!

The restlessness of the Clippers fans and the cheers of the Lakers fans appeared at the same time.

Because it's a real surprise!

On the side of the Lakers' bench, the players were boiling.

At this time, O'Neal also put away his frustration and looked back at the court.

The Clippers' offense, Kobe and Bynum went straight to the basket after the pick-and-roll.

Without O'Neal, the Lakers let him run the inside line.

The Lakers shrunk the basket and Gortat tried to block the shot, but his confrontation ability was not enough in Kobe's eyes.

Kobe made an emergency stop after the confrontation and shot back.

Gortat was kicked back, and the basketball fell over his head and fell into the net bag.

13 to 11!

The Clippers overtook the score!

The impact of O'Neal's departure on the Lakers is visible to the naked eye.

The scene was given to Phil Jackson.

"Zen Master" seemed relatively calm at this time.

But no one knew whether he was really calm or pretending to be calm.

The Lakers' offense, Sun Hao continued to greet Gortat for the pick-and-roll.

Fisher... didn't go around again...

Gortat has broad shoulders, and he's really flexible as a big man.

Bynum learned his lesson this time and quickly shrank to the basket.

And Kobe on the weak side of the Clippers, and Fisher behind him also flanked.

The defensive pressure this round was not as strong as the previous round, but the actual effect looks better.

But at this moment, another unexpected scene appeared on the field.

And the person who made this scene... was Gortat!

Generally speaking, there are two options for the inside pick-and-roll:

One is to dismantle outside. This kind of inside line suitable for mid-range and long-range shooting ability is the most typical representative of Dirk Nowitzki;

The second is to go down, which is the choice that most insiders will make;

Although Gortat has a middle distance, he is not outstanding, so his general choice is the second one.

That's what he did with the previous ball.

Including this ball too.

It's just that the difference from the last ball is that he didn't stop there after going down to the inside, but continued to pick and roll!

He pushed Bynum firmly to the left and opened up the way for Sun Hao to the basket! !

It will take time for Kobe on the weak side and Fisher behind him to catch up to Sun Hao.

Sun Hao may be disturbed if he chooses to make an emergency stop in the middle distance, but to the basket, there is a broad road!

Naturally, he didn't waste such an opportunity, a hitting board that accelerated to the inside.

"boom!"

The ball fell firmly into the net pocket after wiping the backboard.

Easy two points!

"This rookie is interesting!"

In the commentary, Miller couldn't help but be amazed.

Although the defense is really not very good, Gortat's offense, especially this pick-and-roll, is very special.

Even the second pick-and-roll method, this is the first time he has seen it after playing for so many years.

But not to mention Miller, Brin actually has the same emotion.

It's not that they are short-sighted, but that this thing has never appeared in the NBA before.

This pick and roll is also famous in history.

In history, because it was brought into the NBA by Gortat, this pick-and-roll has a very exclusive name: "Gortat Cover".

The so-called Gortat screen refers to the fact that in the round just now, the pick-and-roll man blocks the defender on one side as soon as he rolls down, opening a scoring channel for the ball holder to the basket.

13 levels!

The impact of O'Neal's end on the Lakers is clearly visible, but the Lakers did not fall behind because of this, and they still played back and forth with the Clippers!

Bryant broke inside again, and this time the Lakers shrunk quickly. He chose to distribute the ball to Gasol at the free throw line.

Gasol's mid-range shot.

"when!"

No matter how soft the hand feels, it cannot guarantee that it will enter every time.

Mourning protected the defensive rebound.

The Clippers retreated faster, and the Lakers advanced to the frontcourt to play again.

Sun Hao also continued to greet Gortat for the pick-and-roll.

Don't tell me, after consecutive successful pick-and-rolls, the Clippers really didn't know what to do!

Directly double-teaming Sun Hao, Gortat's sense of going down is too good.

Without directly double-teaming, Gortat's strange pick-and-roll can help Sun Hao create good scoring opportunities!

But life is like that sometimes, and you have to do multiple choice questions whether you are ready or not!

Fisher continued to choose to bypass, and he finally bypassed this time.

But Sun Hao's speed is very fast, and he has already rushed to the inside to cut in before that.

Then, Gortat managed to fend off Bynum again.

It must be said here that "Gortat cover" is actually suspected of a certain mobile screen foul.

Including Popovich has publicly questioned more than once in history.

However, many penalties in the NBA depend on your level and concealment.

If you really want to compare pennies and pennies, James was afraid that he would be blown out of the game in his early years!

Gortat's cover is relatively subtle, and the referees are actually a little confused, after all, I have never seen such a thing before!

Of course, Kobe's help defense came faster this time, directly blocking the space for Sun Hao to shoot directly.

Sun Hao also reacted quickly, pushing Kobe to his right side with his own butt.

Then, he once again rushed inside along the broad avenue that Gortat had created for him.

At this time, the confrontation between him and Kobe became a leverage instead.

He hit the inside line and took off into the air in one step.

"Boom!"

A tomahawk, smashing the ball straight into the basket! !

The cheers at the scene overshadowed the restlessness.

At this moment, the Staples Center is still home to the Lakers!

Gortat's magical pick and roll played an unexpected role!

After Kobe made a breakthrough, he turned and leaned back. The Lakers protected the defensive rebound and played a defensive counterattack.

After Sun Hao received the ball, he dribbled the ball behind his back to avoid the steal, fast break to the frontcourt for a gliding layup and then scored.

13 to 17!

You may not believe it, but after O'Neal was forced to leave the field, the Lakers still had the advantage!

Clippers, timeout!

"Nice job!"

When the Lakers left the court, O'Neal took the initiative to meet Gortat's bald head.

Gortat's performance during this period is too important for the Lakers.

Some people may ask, what about Sun Hao?

Sun Hao scored 6 points and 1 assist after O'Neal left the field!

Yes, but everyone is used to it!

For example, would you be surprised that Jordan scored 30 points? Nope!

Sun Hao's scoring explosive power has been verified many times, this kind of performance... just a normal performance!

When the timeout came back, there were substitutions and adjustments on both sides.

On the Clippers side, Bynum and Fisher went off and were replaced by Harrington and Farmar;

For the Lakers, Trevor Ariza and Mourning went off and were replaced by Hill and Millsap.

In the Clippers' offense, Kobe then broke through the inside and used his excellent experience to successfully trick Millsap into fouling.

Millsap is tough but inexperienced. This is the tuition he needs to pay.

Kobe shook his muscles, adjusted his breathing, and then made two free throws steadily.

15 to 17!

The point difference returned to 2 points again.

This game has the same taste as when the two sides met for the first time.

Sun Hao advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.

At this time, the fans noticed that the Clippers had changed their defense, and the person defending Sun Hao became Kobe!

This scene is not surprising. Kobe also defended it in the first game.

But the difference is that it was the fourth quarter at that time, but now it's only the first quarter!

Kobe really doesn't care about his physical strength!

But you can read a message from that resolute look, desire.

That is the most fruitful desire for victory.

Gortat continued to put on the pick-and-roll.

But this time, the pick-and-roll didn't work.

Just like I said before that there is no perfect defense in the NBA, perfect tactics don't exist either.

Any kind of tactic can be targeted, just sooner or later.

At this time, you also have to admire Kobe's golf quotient. He quickly read the key to "Gortat's cover".

As long as Gortat can't stop the person at the first time, the ball holder will not have a good space to break in, and the subsequent operations will be meaningless.

Kobe's ability to circumnavigate the pick-and-roll is much better than Fisher's.

Gortat failed to block twice in a row, and a series of question marks appeared on his bare head.

This is obviously something he didn't encounter when he was in Europe.

Seeing that Gortat failed the pick-and-roll, Sun Hao signaled him to go inside.

However, he did not storm Kobe.

Before, it was because O'Neal was there, he couldn't make a shot, and O'Neal could catch the board and play a second offense.

But now that O'Neal is not on the court, he must pursue scoring efficiency.

Pulling the ball back to the three-point line, he then motioned for Hill to get the ball to the free throw line.

Then, he started running off the ball.

Kobe followed closely behind.

Sun Hao cuts to the basket from the three-point line, and then cuts back.

That is, during this process, Gortat instinctively set up a pick-and-roll there.

This time, Kobe was blocked.

It's not that Kobe suddenly lost the ability to go around the pick-and-roll, but that the space under the basket is too small and crowded, it is very difficult to go around it completely.

This is why those off-ball players like to cut in and out of the basket, because that is the best way to get rid of the defense!

However, Gasol really had a tacit understanding with Kobe. The moment he saw Kobe was blocked, he turned around and rushed out.

Although Hill's speed on the ball was fast enough, it took time to pass the ball. When the ball reached Sun Hao's hands, Gasol was almost there.

And Gasol is not Bynum, not such an easy insider.

A beautiful tactic is about to end in failure.

But at this moment, before Gasol arrived, Sun Hao lobbed the ball inside!

Gortat got the ball, and only Kobe was left in front of him! !

The small defense at the basket is big, and this wave of tactics is alive again!

Gortat was blocked by Kobe and fouled in front of him. Although he dared not speak out, he was holding his breath in his heart for sure.

How could he miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity right now.

Hold the ball, no matter what you do, just smash it into the basket.

Bryant strikes back, jumps and reaches out to stop him, but Gortat is so big after all.

"Boom!"

Then, under the gaze of all the fans, Gortat just smashed the ball into the basket across Kobe!

Moreover, the bottom line referee's whistle blew.

This is still a 2+1!

After Gortat dunked, he felt goosebumps all over his body.

The pinnacle of life! !

In fact, let alone Gortat, the Lakers bench is already crazy, even O'Neal is holding a towel and screaming there.

This ball is so cool!

It's just that not many people noticed at this time that Kobe's complexion was blue, and the look in his eyes was already killing people.
