The Pope of Basketball Community

The Raptors attacked, Billups passed to Miller in the frontcourt, ran to the right, and Detrev covered to the left corner without the ball. ??

Miller uses the ball frame to observe the running of his teammates, Holly is following Detrev on the left, Fisher is chasing Billups in place, Kobe is guarding Carter in the corner, and Rice is guarding Tracy McGrady.

Miller passed the ball to McGrady, who was running to catch up. The latter took one step inside the right three-point line and turned around to face the frame, assuming a triple threat posture.

Carter cut to the low post on the right side, leaning against Kobe with his back, and McGrady lobbed the ball from close range.

Carter leaned against Kobe, turned around forcefully in the middle, and paused slightly while holding the ball in both hands. Kobe raised his center of gravity and raised his hands to interfere. Carter took another step forward, leaned on Kobe to take off, and hit a one-handed throw from close range.

39 to 38, the score is reversed. Kobe was not out of position, but it was difficult to block Carter's close shot and unable to prevent Carter from turning around.

The Lakers attacked, Fisher passed the ball to Rice, and the latter passed to O'Neal.

Miller tried his best to defend. O'Neal squeezed twice and turned towards the baseline. Miller predicted the position correctly. O'Neal overwhelmed Miller and stepped on the penalty area line to throw with one hand. He didn't make the shot every time, and the ball missed. .

Detrev grabbed the rebound, held it in his arms and waited for the defender to respond, fighting for position.

In the same position as before, Miller holds the ball in the middle and passes it to McGrady in the right position.

Carter made an air cut from the right baseline and entered the penalty area from a deep position. Kobe followed the defense. When McGrady passed the ball, Carter caught the ball from a distance and turned around and jumped with all his strength. He pulled the lever in the air to avoid Kobe Bryant's block and scored the ball. 41 to 38.

Zhang Lili sighed: "Kobe has made the best defensive team this season, but what he is good at is defending outside players who attack the frame. Today, Carter used his physical advantage to attack hard. His strength and jumping are better than Kobe."

Sun Zhengping smiled and said: "Before, Rice defended Carter.

He chose to break through, faster than Les, and too comprehensive. "

The two are about the same height. Carter weighs 100 kilograms and Kobe weighs 93 kilograms. Carter has the advantage in explosive power and strength. Kobe's advantage lies in his lateral movement and flexibility, and he is of little use in defending against low posts.

At this time, Kobe vowed in his heart that he would train hard to gain weight in the summer.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Kobe Bryant gained 7 kilograms of muscle in the summer of 2002, and then reached his peak. His arms were thicker than many power forwards, and his ability to fight inside was significantly enhanced. Now Kobe's upper limbs are still very slender, and he doesn't have many ways to deal with strong attacks.

The Lakers attacked, and Kobe wanted to return the ball from the outside, but he was faced with McGrady.

Kobe made a difficult breakthrough and passed to Rice from the side. The latter just took a step and turned around, but Carter reached out and stabbed the basketball away.

Carter knew that Rice's choice was to pass the ball to O'Neal, so he always looked sideways to find space, and his protection of the ball was average. He had always done this in the past few games. Carter already had experience waiting for him to make moves.

Carter picked up the basketball and went on a fast break. The Lakers had only Kobe to defend in place, 2 on 1 in the frontcourt. Kobe chose a compromise position to prevent the two from playing alley-oops.

Carter brought him to the frontcourt and suddenly shot a three-pointer from 70 degrees on the left side. McGrady immediately got stuck and grabbed the rebound. Rice chased from behind and was a step too late to block the shot. There was no one in front of Carter to interfere, and the ball went in! 44 to 38.

After scoring the goal, Carter was very happy. When he returned to defense, he showed off the action of riding a motorcycle, feeling proud of his ability to get rid of Rice.

Yang Rui stood up and applauded Carter. This season, his performance has exceeded expectations, his defense has also improved greatly, and he doesn't jump around much anymore.

In Yang Rui's previous life, many people said that Carter's eyes were defensive, which was pure nonsense. He was definitely qualified by the standards of ordinary players, but slightly worse by the standards of superstars.

Kobe retired at the age of 37. In the last few years, his defensive end was to "direct traffic" on the court. At the age of 40, Carter can still keep up with many young people and can defend power forwards in the low post. The most amazing thing is the 2017 playoffs. He was with the Grizzlies and faced off against the Spurs core Leonard. He averaged 33 minutes per game. He was still qualified and his efficiency on both offense and defense was not low.

The Lakers' triangle offense, Kobe received the ball from the outside, faced McGrady and forced a breakthrough, and went to the basket in the middle. Miller made up the defense. Kobe attracted the defensive ball, and O'Neal scored with a one-handed dunk on the right side. 44 to 4o.

Billups slowly brought the ball to the frontcourt, and Miller pulled out and reached for the ball.

Fisher thought Billups was going to pass the ball again, but he suddenly made a three-pointer from 80 degrees on the left side. Fisher is 185m tall, and his reaction was half a beat too slow, and he only reached out to slightly interfere.

No one in the Raptors rebounded, but Billups still shot resolutely, with a good rhythm, and hit! 47 to 4o.

When the Lakers attacked, O'Neal caught the ball in the low post and singled out Miller. He turned around in the middle and paused, causing Miller to raise his hands to increase his center of gravity. He took a step forward and jumped up. He dunked the ball with one hand and knocked Miller out of the baseline. . 47 to 42.

tv5 Zhang Lijia smiled and said: "Yang Rui likes to attack too much. It is torture to let Miller defend O'Neal alone. At this time, you can consider sending Cato. There are obviously big men in the team who can resist."

Sun Zhengping smiled and said: "It is true that O'Neal couldn't easily get to the basket and dunk against Cato. Yang Rui didn't let him go, it must be because he can't shoot."

In fact, Yang Rui wanted to reduce Cato's playing time under the premise that he was sure of winning the series. If Cato's performance is average, it will be easier to renew his contract in the summer.

In this era, big men who can resist people are inexplicably valuable. Yang Rui doesn't want a team to offer Cato an Ostertag-style high salary in the summer. If the team matches, it will be a garbage contract.

When the Raptors attacked, Billups brought the ball to the frontcourt without passing it, and played a pick-and-roll with Miller in the middle to get rid of Fisher. He broke through on the left and stopped in the corner, attracting O'Neal to switch defense, and the ball was passed to the middle.

Miller faced the frame and took the ball with both hands, made a fake move in front of Fisher, as if he was going to pass to the basket, and then shot from outside the three-point line in the middle.

Fisher faked a move and went after Billups. He turned his head and did not interfere with Miller at all. O'Neal was too far away and only had time to step forward and stretch out his hand.

Miller had a very good rhythm with this ball and hit the net hollowly. 5o to 42.

The boos in the Lakers audience suddenly stopped. This goal was very demoralizing. Everyone realized a serious problem. The core of the Raptors was not a blue-collar team, and everyone was difficult to deal with.

The Lakers lag behind the Raptors in three-point shooting in every game, which is the main reason for losing. Two-point shooting is less efficient than three-point shooting. They must ensure an overall shooting rate of more than 50% to have a chance of winning.

Rice received the ball from the outside but Carter was close to him, so he couldn't pass it to O'Neal and passed it to the running Kobe. Kobe rushed to the left and failed to get rid of McGrady, nor did he attract double teams. He made a sudden jump shot and missed the shot.

The ball bounced to the right, and Miller got in position to grab the rebound. No matter how heavy O'Neal was, it would be difficult to grab the rebound from outside.

After landing, Miller passed to McGrady nearby, and McGrady passed to Carter for a fast break.

Carter relied on Rice and rushed forward with his head lowered. Billups and Detrev were separated to the left and right, standing outside the three-point line to attract the defense. No one dared to double-team Carter.

He rushed into the penalty area and forced a layup. Rice couldn't jump, and the foul prevented Carter from shooting the ball.

Carter's free throw feel was particularly good this time in the playoffs. His shooting percentage was as high as 87.1%, which was better than the 79.1% in the regular season. He made both free throws steadily. 52 to 42.

The score stretched to double digits, and the Lakers players became impatient.
