Chapter 530 [The only criterion for judging heroes]

Online, many fans analyzed and discussed the reasons why the Lakers advanced.

Some people say that Yang Rui is superior in tactics, some say that the Lakers are better at three-pointers, and some say that the Spurs veteran has no physical strength.

The real reason is that the Lakers' lineup is too strong, and Yang Rui knows what tactical system these people can easily perform under.

The Spurs lineup is not as strong as the Lakers. Once the GDP combination is blocked, the others will be weaker. The Spurs are strong in that they can play any tactic, including inside support, pick-and-rolls, triangle offense, fast breaks, etc.

After the game, Popovich did not find fault with the referee and was convinced of the loss.

This was the first time he met Yang Rui's team in the playoffs. He commented: "Before the game, I didn't think the Spurs were worse than the Lakers. Later I learned that they are scarier than I thought. Jerry Young is not just a A coach who relies on stars to win will, at a certain period of time, arrange tactics for role players, and these people seize the opportunity and are very efficient."

The reporter asked: "Is there any young player on the Lakers who impressed you deeply?"

"Mo Williams, Diaw, Iguodala, I think they have the potential to be All-Stars."

Popovich praised the role players and said it would be difficult for the Lakers to renew with them in the future. If this lineup is not dismantled, he has a feeling that the Lakers will really build a dynasty and it will be difficult for the Spurs to win next season.

The reporter interviewed Yang Rui and asked him to evaluate Popovich.

Yang Rui said: "He is a good coach, but I am better, because success or failure is the only criterion for judging heroes in the NBA."

The reporter asked about the Eastern Conference finals. The Bulls now lead the Heat 3-2 and will play Game 6 at the Heat's home court tomorrow.

Yang Rui said: "I will arrange for the players and coaching staff to watch tomorrow's game together and study the opponent. I will not underestimate the opponent because of my superior strength. I don't want to give the opponent any chance."

The reporter asked: "Which team do you hope will reach the finals?"

"No matter which team in the East breaks through, I believe it will be a wonderful finals."

A reporter asked: "The Lakers beat the Heat by 70 points in the regular season. If the Heat advance, there is a huge gap in strength between the two sides. How can the game be exciting?"

There are always media who want to stir up trouble. Saying such things will affect the ratings of the finals. There is a huge gap between the two sides. Some fans are too lazy to watch the game. At most, they can look at the news and player data afterwards.

Yang Rui smiled and said: "I think NBA can be compared to a video game. The attraction is not just clearing the level, but also challenging the fastest record of breaking the level, scoring high scores and other attractive elements. Therefore, even if the gap is huge, you can still play It’s very exciting, of course, the opponent may not necessarily think so.”

The reporters were sweating wildly. This was a rhythm that showed that they were going to crush their opponents in the finals. How could they not underestimate their opponents? They clearly did not take their opponents seriously?

In Game 6, the Heat tenaciously equalized the score at home, 98-86.

The Lakers returned to Los Angeles and watched the game together in the arena's screening room. There were few exciting scenes in the game, and the scene was so boring that it made people sleepy.

O'Neal scored 20 points and 7 rebounds, and Wade scored 25 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 steals, the most points in the game. When a star plays this kind of data, the audience cannot get excited at all.

McGrady, who scored the most for the Bulls, had 24 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists, while Brand had 19 points and 7 rebounds, which were also very average. Artest performed abnormally, shooting 1 of 6 from the field, and only had 2 points, 4 rebounds, and no assists.

On June 6, the tiebreaker of the Eastern Conference Finals was held in Chicago.

As a "Jerry coach", Thibodeau also allowed people to see progress this season. He ranked third in the best coach selection, slightly behind D'Antoni, and led the team to the best record in the Eastern Conference.

The way the Bulls succeed is to poach stars with high salaries and train young players. There are not many transactions, but they are useful.

In the mid-term, the management hired the Hornets' edge center Jason Collins to strengthen the interior defense.

There is still no strong point guard. Second-round rookie Chris Duhon immediately started for the Bulls after joining and performed well. Duhong has average organizational skills, and his specialty is shooting three-pointers.

The defense also works very hard, and Thibodeau is quite satisfied with him.

After the game started, the Heat turned away and O'Neal moved to the outside to screen and roll for Wade. Wade's breakthrough speed with the ball was amazing. It was difficult for the center to change defense in time, and McGrady and Artest were too late to catch up.

The Heat's lineup is no better than Yang Rui's previous life. They were able to play seven games with the Bulls because of coach Pat Riley's tactics.

After entering the playoffs, O'Neal's statistics dropped to 19 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.5 blocks. Riley made Wade the team's first core, reducing O'Neal's number of low-post attacks. When defending, he asked O'Neal to expand the defensive range and not just stay near the penalty area, but go out to interfere with shooting.

Riley's request made O'Neal miserable, but it turned out to be effective. The Shark's statistics are better when he is huddled near the penalty area, but his shooting interference and pick-and-roll changes are very bad. Now his rebounding data has dropped, and it is his opponents who are suffering.

Entering the playoffs, Wade averaged 27.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.1 blocks per game, becoming a hot outside star in the league. Some people believe that Wade is the strongest rookie in the 2003 class.

The Heat led 33-23 by 10 points in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, the Heat's weakness of lacking a power forward substitute began to show up again. The strongest player was Udonis Haslem, who entered the NBA as a non-draft player. The substitute was former Wizards veteran Christian Laettner, who averaged 2.2 points and 1.9 rebounds per game. Mobile The speed is too slow.

The Bulls play small ball tactics, Collins is the center, 201cm tall, Nocioni, an Argentine who was not drafted into the NBA, is a guest power forward, Artest is the backup, the shooting guard is Crawford, and the point guard is Gianello. -Pago.

The Bulls' lineup is good at sudden shooting, but the Heat's substitutes are much worse. Even with Eddie Jones, they can't attack, so Artest takes care of them.

The Bulls quickly recovered the score and played well in the second half. McGrady and Brand came on the scene to ensure offensive firepower with Crawford, leading by 5 points entering the second half.

At halftime, most people were optimistic that the Bulls would win because there were more people playing.

Nocioni is surprisingly easy to use. He has a fierce style of play and is not tall, but he can shoot when he is pulled out, and he can break through by drawing the opponent's big man out of the 4th position. He is not afraid of confrontation on defense, similar to Artest.

This is only Nocioni's rookie season. In the playoffs, he averaged 12.8 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game.

After Duhong joined, the Bulls are no longer so weak at the No. 1 position. He went to school for four years at Duke University. His statistics are not impressive, he is rich in experience, and he does not mess around.

If he goes to a team with an average offense, Duhong can only play as a substitute, but in the Bulls he is suitable for starting. He only needs to bring the ball to the frontcourt to his teammates, and has no chance to attack with the ball. His style also suits the Lakers, so Yang Rui once included him in the second-round reserve list.

Brand, the power forward who was sleepwalking in the first half, began to show off his power, hitting three mid-range shots after the pick-and-roll. After his teammates pulled O'Neal out of the basket, he also singled out Haslem twice in the low post. On the defensive end, Brand also performed well and gave O'Neal a big block.

Under the Bulls' zone defense system, the Heat's weakness in the three-point gap once again appeared. Payton and Wade were left two steps away from the outside, and their jump shots were not sure.

The Bulls led by 17 points entering the final quarter.

In the last quarter, Crawford started the game with a bang, hitting two three-pointers, breaking through to attract double teams, assisting Artest to hit a corner three-pointer, and assisting Przbilla for a dunk, sealing the victory.

The Heat fielded their strongest lineup and struggled to catch up, but ultimately lost 90-109 and were eliminated 3-4.
