I am so Accurate

Chapter 693 Start dreaming about the championship!

Ibaka turned his head helplessly and looked at Nelson on the sidelines.

He really didn't know what to do with Yao Ming.

Double-teaming doesn't work, one-on-one is just like being beaten while hanging.

And he had to endure Yao Ming's English trash talk that was so fluent it reminded him that he was Congolese!

Nelson didn't give Ibaka any response, although his expression looked serious at this time.

Of course he knows that replacing Oden can alleviate the situation inside, but he knows better that replacing Oden does not actually solve the problem.

Because they are the lagging party now!

Replacing Oden is equivalent to giving up the death five and returning to the regular lineup.

But the previous games have proven that they cannot beat the Lakers with Sun Hao and Yao Ming on the court with their regular lineup.

Chronic death, and a desperate fight.

Nelson's character has determined that he will definitely choose the latter.

"Uh-huh!"

At this moment, Curry made a super long shot one meter away from the three-point line!

Although he is not as lethal as Sun Hao, Curry has this ability!

And this three-pointer came at the perfect time.

Just like Yao Ming beats the Warriors inside, the Warriors' outside three-pointers also put pressure on the Lakers.

There was no reaction from the Lakers.

Harris has been an assistant coach to Nelson for so many years, and of course he knows Nelson's temper very well.

Either the Warriors' inside line was defeated first, or the Lakers' outside defense collapsed first.

Let’s see who can endure it better!

The Lakers had the ball, and Sun Hao controlled the ball to the frontcourt and continued to lob the ball to Yao Ming.

The same low post tactics, but what is different from the previous two rounds is that after receiving the ball, Sun Hao no longer simply stood on the outside to draw space, but played small cooperation with Carter at the three-point line.

The purpose of this cooperation is not to score, but to contain the Warriors' defense.

The help defense rotation of the top five in death is fast, but Sun Hao has not only experienced it himself, he also encountered similar situations when he was still with the Mavericks.

Well, the Spurs' help defensive rotation is also historic.

So he also knows how to break this method.

The Warriors saw Sun Hao move, and the defense on the strong side did not dare to move. Carter, who was holding the ball, gave the ball to the weak side.

Ever since, the classic phrase most familiar to fans has come:

The strong side turns to the weak side, and the weak side plays a triangle!

Millsap, Butler and Yao Ming formed a new triangle.

Millsap hoisted the ball into Yao Ming inside, and Yao Ming continued to hit the basket hard!

At this time, Durant couldn't get back the basket. Yao Ming made two consecutive blows and then pushed the ball directly into the basket through Ibaka!

"Bang!"

The muffled sound of the basketball hitting the rim was clearly audible.

The scene fell silent, followed by overwhelming cheers.

This is really treating Ibaka as a younger brother!

Moreover, Ibaka tried to block this shot, but the difference in size between the two was too much, and he was knocked directly out of the baseline.

After being hit, his expression was very helpless, but he couldn't lose his temper at all.

Because Old Nelson's reaction just now made him know that he had no other choice but to fight to the end.

So he had no choice but to endure this round, because...he couldn't just ask for the end on his own!

Ibaka endured it, but his mentality fluctuated greatly after so many back and forths.

When the Warriors started to coordinate their tactics again in the frontcourt, he no longer dared to take action when he got the ball from the outside!

"Vote! Vote!"

Curry yelled while watching this scene, which was very similar to the way Curry shouted to Draymond Green in history.

Ibaka finally made the shot, but it was obviously missed.

"Dang!"

The basketball hit the basket and Yao Ming collected another defensive rebound.

The Lakers' defense was successful again!

The cheers started again.

"Baby, that's it! That's it!"

On the other side of the commentary box, O'Neal also shouted excitedly, his state was like a shark charging.

"Shaq, you're going to lose."

Barkley felt a little wrong when he saw O'Neal's excited look, because it was the Lakers who would win if they kept playing like this, and it would be him who would win!

"That's not important, Charles!"

O'Neill disagreed.

Yes, in his opinion, the Lakers are obviously overwhelming the Warriors now, which proves that big balls are better than small balls, and the center is the answer to basketball!

Under this premise, any bet is not worth mentioning to him.

Seeing O'Neal's reaction, Barkley suddenly felt a little bored at this time.

Because the interesting thing about a bet is that both parties care!

The way O'Neal looks now makes him feel like he has gambled away his loneliness!

And more importantly, he felt aggrieved about the bet he lost before. Does this mean he can never win it back?

On the court, Yao Ming was still blasting Ibaka.

This time Ibaka really experienced the most painful experience since entering the league.

Another hook shot that he couldn't resist, and this time he almost lost the desire to block the shot.

Because he knows that it is impossible for him to cover it, and the most he will pay is a foul!

When Nelson saw this, he actually had an answer to the situation on the field.

He turned around and called Oden up from the bench and replaced Danny Green with him.

This move means that Nelson has given up on the "Death Five"!

The moment Oden stood up, the cheers from Staples Center filled the sky.

Although the game has not ended yet, the outcome is still undecided, but Nelson's move actually means that the ball has lost!

Facts have proved that when facing a center of Yao Ming's level, the disadvantages of small ball tactics on the defensive end are more unbearable for the team than the advantages on the offensive end!

In the final minutes, the Warriors showed their strength and were on par with the Lakers.

But Nelson's previous prediction was also correct. The most the Warriors can do with the regular lineup is to maintain the point difference and cannot chase points.

With 30 minutes left before the end of the game, the Lakers still maintained a double-digit point difference.

At this time, there was no suspense about the outcome. Nelson began to take the initiative to replace the main players and announced the end of the game in advance.

The cheers at Staples Center were deafening.

In the end, they won the Christmas war!

It’s their big balls that have the last laugh!

"Lakers! Lakers!"

The fans began to chant the name of the Lakers in unison, as if the Lakers had kept the basketball dream in many people's hearts!

But it's true.

Although small ball is an irreversible development, people are nostalgic for the past. Many fans still like the kind of basketball that uses internal and external cooperation to play positions steadily.

The Lakers' victory tonight kept the basketball dream in their hearts!

But the most exciting person at the moment is O'Neal in the commentary box.

"Big Shark" was already dancing and twirling his butt in celebration at the commentary box.

Barkley's look on the sidelines was also very interesting. He had obviously won the bet, but at this time he seemed like a loser and could only watch O'Neal enjoying himself.

After all, he still can't escape O'Neal's sanctions on him!

After the last 30 seconds, the score on the court was fixed at 121 to 110. The Lakers finally beat the Warriors by 11 points.

We didn’t win much, but we won thoroughly!

In terms of technical statistics, Durant scored the most points for the Warriors, with a game-high 41 points and 11 rebounds!

He performed at an MVP level, and it was his performance that kept the Warriors in a position to win.

In addition to Durant, Curry had 21 points, Thompson had 17 points, Ibaka had 11 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and Oden had 7 points and 7 rebounds.

For the Lakers, Sun Hao had 27 points and 6 assists, and Yao Ming had 35 points and 16 rebounds!

If the game is not clear enough, then this post-game statistics is the best explanation.

In a nutshell: Yao Ming destroyed the Warriors inside line!

Leyer's phrase "the center's grave" turned out to be just a joke, because tonight it was Yao Ming who scored the ball into the "grave"!

A vigorous Christmas game, the media reports and fan discussions after the game reached a new peak since the beginning of the season.

For no other reason than the discussion about big ball and small ball, a tentative conclusion was finally reached after this game.

That is, before super centers like O'Neal and Yao Ming wither away, small ball tactics still cannot shake the status of traditional basketball!

Some fans even began to hypothesize that if the Wizards had reached the finals instead of the Knicks, then the Warriors might not be able to dynasty!

Well, history is always surprisingly similar, and this assumption will never go away.

Of course, a game is just a game after all, and no matter how lively the fans are, it is just for a while.

Because when this question finally has a definite answer, it must be when the league has a final championship.

The answer from a series or a playoff will be the "ultimate answer" to this question.

The Christmas war has come to an end, and fans' attention has shifted from the stadium to the TNT live broadcast room.

Although O'Neal didn't care, Barkley won the bet in the end.

So in the end O'Neal still has to be "punished" after his failure.

Of course, just like when Barkley kissed the donkey's ass, it was a bit too embarrassing for you to make O'Neal hold back his laughter for the entire game, so the final punishment was only for five minutes.

Within five minutes, Barkley could use any non-physical contact method to make O'Neal laugh. If O'Neal persisted in the end, he would win.

Then, fans witnessed the funniest five minutes.

Buckley's funny jokes, Buckley's dances, Buckley's imitation shows, and even Buckley's women's clothing!

In order to regain the dignity of his previous loss, Barkley can be said to have tried his best.

But O'Neill was stunned and held it in. Although he wanted to laugh, his eyes were round and round, like a ruthless, cold-blooded shark.

So in the end, Barkley seemed to win or lose!

When this episode of TNT's program also came to an end, the topic of big ball and small ball finally came to an end.

The next thing fans are paying attention to is the upcoming All-Star Game.

The Western Conference teams are very competitive this year, and the competition for All-Star spots is also fierce.

Especially in the backcourt, Sun Hao and Kobe were originally untouchable, but this year, Curry began to break Kobe's seal.

The results of the first round of voting came out. Curry followed Sun Hao and ranked second among guards, beating Kobe.

Although it is only the first round of voting, this is the first time in so many years.

According to the words of the fans: There is no way, who calls Curry the "big nephew"!

They are used to seeing Peter Pan's Mamba style, and they also want to see Curry's "Little Sun" performance!

And the results of the first round of voting gave people a feeling of vitality.

West: Curry, Sun Hao, Durant, Griffin, Yao Ming.

East: Harden, Wade, James, Anthony, Yi Jianlian.

Curry, Griffin and Harden all appeared on the starting lineup for the first time!

Especially Curry and Harden, their growth trajectories are obviously different from those in history.

Now that the two of them have received a big contract and entered the starting lineup together, they are destined to become lifelong enemies!

Time came to January. After the Lakers experienced the turmoil at the beginning of the season, the Lakers began to really get on the right track.

"After all the hard work, there is joy" is a perfect word to describe the Lakers at this time.

After Yao Ming went through the recovery period from his injury, his weight has gradually returned to normal and his performance has stabilized due to his outstanding perseverance.

Although it is a bit unrealistic to return to the dominant performance on both offense and defense that he had during his peak period due to his age, he is still the number one center in the league.

Well, it feels a bit like O'Neal at the end of his prime.

Then there is the Lakers' tactical system. The Lakers won the Christmas game and the Lakers also found a "new triangle tactic" that suited them, which was to only reduce Yao Ming's playing time and give Sun Hao's time, allowing him to lead Play triangle with the bench.

So from the coaching staff to the players, this Lakers team is ready.

And after experiencing a relatively devilish schedule at the beginning of the season, the Lakers' schedule in January is also very comfortable.

Then, it’s time for Lakers fans to enjoy.

Throughout January, the Lakers have not lost a single game and achieved a record of 13 wins and 0 losses!

And following the original Lakers dynasty, the league once again felt the dominance of the triangle offense!

In terms of technical statistics in January, Sun Hao averaged 32 points per game, Yao Ming averaged 29 points per game, and the two averaged 61 points per game together!

This is the triangle offense, a tactic born for superstars!

Of course, that's not all.

What really scares fans is that the Lakers have more than just superstars!

Throughout January, the Lakers averaged 115 points per game!

In other words, the Lakers' role players collectively average 50+ per game!

And if you look at the Lakers' technical statistics, you will find that Millsap's 12.5 points, Carter's 12 points, Knight's 11.6 points, Butler's 10.2 points...the scoring is very average!

"If I were to vote for the best general manager this season, I would definitely vote for Kupchak."

Some fans in the media have begun to talk about Kupchick.

After experiencing such a "Sweet January", Lakers fans already feel that all the things they lost at the beginning are back!

Now, they are really starting to think about winning the championship!
