The Pope of Basketball Community

On June 8, the finals started in Los Angeles, with a schedule of 232.

The tactics arranged by Yang Rui made Kobe very dissatisfied. Kobe and Iguodala stood on the right side to attract defense, waiting for opportunities to cut. Rasheed Wallace opened the three-point line on the left, and Mo Williams and Yao Ming played pick-and-rolls in the middle.

The Lakers play ordinary pick-and-roll tactics in the middle most of the time, but the person responsible for holding the ball and attacking is Kobe. Now let Xiao Mo hold the ball and Kobe play without the ball. What kind of trouble is this?

Yang Rui did this to take him by surprise. Wade is faster in pursuit and is the Heat's best defensive perimeter player. In Yang Rui's previous life, Kobe was not very efficient in one-on-one with Wade. In his career, he made 8.9 of 20.4 field goals and 43.6% from the field. He averaged 26.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game, which was below average.

Kobe can't get away from the defense in pick-and-rolls. He should be able to win the series, but it's hard to win beautifully.

It's different when Mo Mo holds the ball and plays pick-and-roll. As long as the Heat arranges man-to-man marking, after the mismatch, Mo Mo will face O'Neal, and Yao Ming will face "White Chocolate" Jason Williams. They have the advantage of speed and flexibility. , can break through, one has a height advantage, can catch the ball and shoot, it is difficult for the Heat to defend.

The above is Yang Rui's explanation to the players. The real situation is that he wants to help Yao Ming win a Grand Slam this season.

Yao Ming only won the All-Star Game MVP last season. That honor is dispensable and carries little weight. Regular season MVP and Finals MVP are the honors that all players dream of. There are only 10 people in NBA history who can win the two best players in a single season.

No matter what Kobe explained, his face turned black with anger. He was determined to win the FMVP, and Yang Rui pretended not to see it.

Just kidding, Yang Rui said when chatting with Yao Ming that the Lakers are his team. Since he is the boss of this team, does he need to kneel down and lick Kobe?

Compared with championship rings, he has more than Kobe; compared with net worth, the gap between the two is even greater; compared with the importance to the Lakers, they are not on the same level. If Yang Rui had chosen the Mavericks or Suns instead of the Lakers, Kobe would be absolutely miserable. Leave the team.

Even if Yang Rui lets the players play freely, Kobe does not have absolute say. Unlike Yang Rui in his previous life, the Lakers have too many capable players, and it is impossible to all depend on Kobe's face.

This year, the Lakers slaughtered their opponents several times. If they can win easily, they don't want to make things complicated, and they have developed a good habit. Kobe is nominally the boss of the team. In fact, he seldom talks in the locker room and does not hang out with his teammates during holidays. He is only averagely popular in the team.

You may not believe it, but the most popular member of the Lakers is Damon Jones. He has a funny personality and likes to joke with his teammates. He has a wide range of hobbies, including surfing, playing video games, singing and dancing, billiards, bowling, and golf. He can play with everyone.

Originally, Yang Rui thought Jones was an arrogant guy because he called himself "the best shooter in the universe." Later, he found out that it was also a joke. Now he has given this title to Yao Ming.

This season, Jones's number of shots and playing time have decreased, and his data has declined. He has no opinions and plays strictly according to the coach's arrangements. He is a person who is easily satisfied. He is already very happy if he can sign a three-year contract with the Lakers and get the opportunity to build a dynasty together.

Kobe is different. He has a strong pursuit of data and pays special attention to personal honor. So he would say the classic: "Even if the world abandons me, there is still basketball to accompany me. I don't want to be like others, even if this other person is Jordan."

Kobe always wanted to surpass Jordan, even in the most difficult days of the 2003-04 season. Jordan was already 28 years old when he won his first championship, and Kobe thought he had time. ?But his problem of low emotional intelligence has not changed. After his success last season, he did not send gifts to his teammates this season. If he did not express his thoughts, how could he get public support?

The Lakers' role players are not stupid. Having a good relationship with Yao Ming can get practical benefits. Yao Ming not only often takes his teammates to the Yao Restaurant in Los Angeles to have a meal, but also helps them win the favor of Chinese businessmen.

Rasheed, Jones, Iguodala, and Odom have all received Chinese product endorsements, making a small profit and increasing their commercial value.

Jones also became the first player to wear the Chinese sports brand "Li Ning" in the NBA, interpreting the Eastern basketball culture. "Feijia" also became the first pair of Chinese basketball shoes to appear in the NBA. ?

In this case, teammates are happy to pass the ball to Yao Ming.

After the warm-up, the game started on time.

The Heat used man-to-man tactics in the opening game. It was not appropriate for Haslem to defend Yao Ming or O'Neal to defend Rasheed, so they could only play like this. Mo Williams held the ball and played a pick-and-roll with Yao Ming, which confused O'Neal in the first round.

It's good news that Kobe and Yao aren't dealing with him together, but it's equally difficult for him to switch to a small guard.

Xiao Mo moved at full speed to face the frame at a 45-degree angle after the pick-and-roll. O'Neal retreated and followed him two steps. Keeping the distance can interfere with shooting, and he can also return to the basket to cover at any time. Jason chased Xiao Mo and left Yao Ming free.

It's impossible not to chase. The two teams competed in the regular season, and he was misplaced to guard Yao Ming. With his height of 185cm, he couldn't do anything. He couldn't interfere with shooting, let alone passing.

Xiao Mo quickly moved the ball to the middle according to Yang Rui's arrangement. Yao Ming received the ball without pausing and made a jump shot. O'Neal was slow to interfere with the save and scored a three-pointer! 3 to 0.

Yao Ming practiced three-pointers this morning. He has been shooting from the middle all season and is full of confidence. Moreover, Iguodala made a cut from the bottom line. Even if he failed to make a shot, his teammates could still rush for offensive rebounds.

When returning to defense, Yao Ming smiled happily. This was a good start. He and Yang Rui had talked before the game and were ready to compete for the finals MVP.

The Heat attack, the Lakers defend, Yao Ming is in the low post, and the other four rotate on the outside.

Wade broke through the penalty area and was double-teamed by three people. The ball went outside and Haslem made a pass from the left side. 3 to 2.

The Lakers attacked, Xiao Mo brought the ball to the frontcourt, played a pick-and-roll with Yao Ming from outside the three-point line, and got rid of Jason.

"White Chocolate" was very popular when he first entered the league, and his passing skills were incredible and superb. But his physical condition prevented him from ever becoming a good defender. He is 185cm tall and weighs 86kg. He was unable to quickly get around Yao Ming's screen.

Xiao Mo did not lead inside, but took a step sideways to the left and shot a three-pointer directly. He shot resolutely, with perfect rhythm, and hit the net without interference. 6 to 2.

O'Neal didn't catch it and was thinking about how to deal with Yao Ming.

The home fans gave Xiao Mo a warm applause. He is a very inspiring second-round pick. He is playing better and better. He also dared to perform in the finals and became the team's X factor.

The Heat attacked, O'Neal moved to the middle to screen for Wade. Wade got rid of Kobe and broke into the inside. He was double-teamed by Yao Ming and Rasheed. Wade passed the ball to Haslem. Rasheed turned around faster this time. Pounced on Haslem to interfere with the shot, the ball went wide, and Yao Ming got the rebound.

Yao Ming passed the ball to Xiao Mo, who slowly dribbled the ball across the half court and waited for Yao Ming to get into position to start the pick-and-roll. Jason pursued the defense with all his strength, and Xiao Mo moved the ball to the center.

Yao Ming took the ball and observed the movement of his teammates, which attracted O'Neal to stand outside. Kobe cut from the right and reached for the ball. Yao Ming first passed to Rashid on the left, who passed to the low post without pausing.

Facing Haslem, Rashid has a height advantage and can pass the ball easily. Kobe took the ball with his back in the left penalty area, leaned against Wade, shook his left shoulder, turned towards the baseline and made a fadeaway jumper. 8 to 2.

The Lakers stars have outstanding personal abilities and took the initiative from the beginning.
