The Rest, Only Noise

The Lakers finished the regular season with a 58-24 record in 1994-95.

This record ranks third in the competitive West, behind only the Clippers with 60 wins and the Trail Blazers with 65 wins.

The fans have no dissatisfaction. At the beginning of the season, they were even mentally prepared that if they got 50 wins, they would be successful.

Zhao Yuanzheng is indeed too tender.

He exposed several problems, he was slow to respond, and his tactics were rigid.

However, the Lakers team atmosphere is good, which is his advantage.

Compared with other famous coaches, his professional quality is inferior, but it can improve the atmosphere of the locker room, which is also a manifestation of his ability.

Wilson's charisma also makes Pippen put away the idea of ​​competing for the boss.

The Lakers survived the internal crisis and made strides into the playoffs.

In the first round, the Lakers faced the Denver Nuggets.

The Nuggets have been rebuilding since firing Doug Moe, with players like Grant Long and Tom Gugliotta within a few years, but not enough to make the playoffs.

So last summer, they first acquired Jason Kidd, who can bring immediate change to the team, through the draft, and then signed Robert Parish at a high price.

These two signings put them on the right track.

Kidd's data is bright but not conspicuous, averaging 10 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists per game.

Even Glenn Robinson can't shake his ROY (Rookie of the Year) if he adds 10 points, but it's not Kidd.

The great thing about Kidd is that his personal data is not outstanding, but he can bring real changes to the team.

Players who don't work with data like this are called ball-blind identifiers in the future.

That being said, the Nuggets' threat to the Lakers is limited.

Game1 is Wilson's shooting performance.

Louie sat on the sidelines and played a game with Wilson.

"Benj, can you keep the ball under one minute and get 30 points?"

That means Wilson needs a lot of movement to complete the catch-and-shoot.

"Is there any reward?"

"If you do, I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow."

For Louie's meal, Wilson is possessed by the gods.

That night, he gave up the ball entirely.

Through clever movement and proper use of screens, he scored 36 points on 16-of-25 shooting, and did not get a free throw in 58 seconds.

The Nuggets were shot.

Louis was relieved, and if he was the captain of the ship that was about to arrive at Zihuatanejo, Benj would be his chief mate.

Jerry West also gave Wilson high marks.

"Benj's games often give me a creepy feeling," West said in surprise. "He's always doing the right thing and can't fault anything."

Of course, don't look at who brought him out?

Louis raised his eyebrows contentedly, but West didn't notice him.

Game 2 is the only game the Nuggets have any hope of winning.

Kidd played perfectly, usually less than 30% of the three-pointers, shot 40% of the shots tonight, at the same time, his driving layups and post-ups played very well, the audience 27 points 13 The tragic statistics of rebounds and 11 assists are much worse in front of David Robinson, who is in heaven.

Tonight's Robinson is a **** of war, and his mid-range shot is accurate. He smashed Denver's interior with the ball on the flank, and unstoppably scored 45 points and 16 rebounds, helping the Lakers master the match point.

The Nuggets, whose military heart has been shattered, were unable to resist at home, and were directly won by the Lakers' smooth attack.

3 to 0

The Lakers advanced to the semifinals, where they faced the second-place Clippers in the Western Conference.

The Clippers can get 60 wins has exceeded many people's expectations.

Even with a record-breaking 75 wins for the Miami Heat in the East, Jeff Van Gundy has a good chance of being named head coach of the year. ???

Suddenly, the semi-finals between the East and West became a civil war for the coaches of the Louis Department.

On the west side, Zhao Yuanzheng's Lakers and Van Gundy's Clippers met.

East, Tomjanovich's Knicks and Phil Jackson's magic met.

As for the unique Heat under Billy Donovan, it was even more unbeatable and went straight to the championship.

In the series between the Lakers and the Clippers, both sides have absolute advantages and absolute weaknesses.

The Lakers' strength is the pressure that Wilson and Pippen create at the forward positions.

And the Clippers' strength is Barkley's destructive power at the four.

A.C. Green is one of the Lakers' well-known weaknesses, and is now in the center of the prosperous era, but in fact, the power forward position is also very rich in talent.

A.C will be blown up every three to five.

It was hard for him to meet Barkley.

It stands to reason that the combined force of Wilson and Pippen should be stronger than the matchup advantage of Barkley.

However, the game process did not go in the direction Zhao Yuanzheng expected.

In the first game of the semifinals, Wilson had a poor shooting touch and scored 30 points by relying on breakthroughs. Instead, Pippen threw a touch and scored 27 points, but Robinson failed to break through Mutombo's defense.

On the Clippers side, Sprewell's performance was a blast.

This person is a rare magic-ball play-style forward and guard swingman, and his attack range is basically the basket and beyond the three-point line.

Moreover, he has a first step that even Pippen and Wilson have trouble reacting to.

Dale Ellis couldn't stop him at all.

The effect of this domino is to fire even the other wings with the Clippers.

Robert Horry's few key points in the fourth quarter contained the Lakers' counter-attack.

Chinese player Du Shuai has also emerged. He is the only reliable single player on the Clippers bench. As a bench gangster, as long as he comes on stage, he will score points.

The Clippers defended the home court with a better performance, leading 1-0 with a big score.

"I don't see any chance of winning!" West was furious. "How was this game played?"

His rant resounded through the Forum office.

Then, Wilson showed him the winning side.

In the second game, Zhao Yuanzheng let Wilson control the ball and lead the team's offense.

Wilson kept blasting the Clippers defense with the ball, compressing the opponent's defense, and then passing the ball out to Ellis.

The unrelenting assassin made seven three-pointers in a single game, and with Wilson's dazzling 38 points, 12 rebounds and 14 assists, the Lakers defeated the Clippers on the road and stole the opponent's home field advantage.

Fortunately, they don't have to fly home, which is the beauty of a city derby.

In fact, the Clippers have no advantage at all at home.

Even at their game arena, the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum (2), the majority of the audience were Lakers fans.

Their screams could easily drown out Clippers supporters.

That said, the Lakers actually have seven home-court advantages in this series.

Then, in Game 3 of the series, Robinson stood up, but Mutombo's defense remained overshadowed.

Wilson still has an excellent shooting touch, but Pippen was frustrated by Sprewell's defense and could barely score in positional battles.

Barkley went on a killing spree, and he turned the game into a true point-and-shoot.

However, while the two sides are soaring points, the existence of Mutombo makes the Lakers' basket shooting rate less than 40%.

118 to 112

The Clippers won the game and took the lead again.

From the very beginning, Louis decided that as long as Zhao Yuanzheng didn't ask him for help, he would stand by.

But West couldn't stand it, and he came to Louie to review the game the day after he lost.

"Jerry, what are you worried about?" Louie laughed, "Coach Zhao will do something."

West sneered in disbelief: "His solution is to shorten the rotation!"

The result was really in West's words.

Game4

Zhao Yuanzheng adjusted the rotation from 8 to 6. He wanted to ensure that the team could maintain high-intensity offensive and defensive pressure throughout the game.

"Coach Zhao is the least like LeaderLu among all the coaches who have worked in the Blue Palace."

This is Hubie Brown's evaluation of Zhao Yuanzheng.

Coaches in the Louis department like long rotations. Van Gundy, like Van Gundy, is more conservative, but he also insists on playing eight-man rotations in the Clippers.

Zhao Yuanzheng's rotation of seven people and six people at every turn is a sign of quick success and quick success in the eyes of the outside world.

The game fell into the Lakers' control from the start.

Robinson, as the team's Dinghaishenzhen, played a very eye-catching performance.

In the past three games, Robinson has also been criticized, mainly because of his aggressiveness.

He can contribute 25+10 per game, but fans expect him to play 35+10 or even 45+10. However, Mutombo's defense in the penalty area is unparalleled in the world. Although Robinson is an insider who is beyond the times, he does not have the technology beyond the times. .

Zhao Yuanzheng's strategy still worked~www.novelmt.com~ All five starters played for more than 40 minutes, and the Clippers obviously did not keep up with such intensity.

107 to 102

The Lakers narrowly beat the Clippers at the Forum Arena, with a big score of 2-2.

On the same night, the Heat in the East defeated the Hornets 130-98 and reached the Eastern Conference finals with an unstoppable momentum.

NBC's reporter asked Donovan if he was worried about the Knicks, which have been on the rise recently.

Donovan replied, "I'm just worried that they won't be here (Eastern Finals)."
