Although the goal was scored, Lin Long's eyebrows were wrinkled.
He felt the change in the Lakers defense!
They didn't just continue to use Pippen's one-on-one defense against themselves as they seemed. Although it was only one goal, Lin Long could feel that Kobe's double-teaming was much faster and more determined than the previous two games!
In addition, Pippen's small movements are a lot bigger than before.
Lin Long guessed that Pippen was testing the referee's bottom line.
Let's see what kind of moves the referee can tolerate with the Lakers to defend with the blessing of the home court!
Pippen is the main defense, using all efforts, including small moves and some dirty moves, to strictly prevent Lin Long's breakthroughs and shots. At the same time, when Kobe passes Pippen, the Lakers will immediately step up to help defend, forcing Lin Long to make quick shots or points. ball.
If Lin Long continues to break through, one of O'Neal or Malone will surely come up quickly to form a three-person containment.
And if he is really double-teamed by 3 people, then even with Lin Long's ability, he is likely to be cornered, and there will be a risk of mistakes whether shooting or passing the ball.
In addition, this is Los Angeles, and the Lakers' home-court advantage will make the referees tolerate some movements that are not excessive and harmless to help them defend!
This defensive system, the biggest reliance, is actually the Lakers advantage on the home whistle!
That's why Phil Jackson didn't come up with 537 in the first two games.
One of the referees who came there didn't help them.
Second, Jackson wants to make Pippen adapt to Lin Long's rhythm and style as much as possible, and use two games as training, so that Pippen can play as much as he can and limit Lin Long in the third game!
Thinking of this, the defensive formation that Phil Jackson arranged at home has actually been guessed by Lin Long. Eighty-nine will be shocked by Lin Long's eyes widened and unable to say a word.
Simply a monster!
The Lakers' offense continues to look for O'Neal inside.
Big Ben couldn't stop O'Neal's bulldozer-like rolling attack.
Even with Rasheed on the side, he is difficult to defend, and O'Neal once again scored a slam dunk over his head!
After the dunk, the excited O'Neal went back to the defense and yelled at the same time!
Here is the home court, his passion has been completely released!
We're going to break the Celtics' undefeated streak tonight!
This is the common thought of all Lakers players at this time!
In the first quarter of the game, the Celtics' offense was more initiated by Lin Long at the top of the arc.
He's continuing to experiment with the Lakers' defense, and he's going to see if his guesses are right.
At the same time have to adapt to Pippen's defensive scale, adapt to those ubiquitous little moves and harassment.
At the same time, Lin Long is also looking for his teammates. Once a teammate gets an open spot or cuts to the basket, Lin Long will share the ball and help the team score.
The Lakers continued their high-low play in the interior. After getting Malone, Jackson did not continue to stubbornly play his own triangle offense, but played more high-low, pick-and-roll and weak side 2-on-2. This is the style of play that can best utilize the Lakers' strengths and advantages!
In the first half of the first quarter, O'Neal and Malone played comfortably and easily. Compared with the current Double Wallace, the two of them were indeed one step ahead, and the two of them were almost powerless to fight back.
In the first half of the first quarter, also because of Lin Long's test and attempt and O'Neal's strength, the score between the two sides was slowly pulled apart.
When there are 6 minutes left in the first quarter, the difference between the two sides remains at 7 points!
Bird immediately took advantage of the dead ball and applied for a timeout.
The only positive for the Celtics is probably the rapid increase in the number of Celtics fouls.
At this point in the game, the Celtics' fouls are finally counted!
Bird decided the strategy for this game based on Lin Long's plan in the last game.
In the first quarter and the rest of the game, as long as O'Neal touches the ball, the Celtics will foul! Don't give them any chance to play 2+1 or directly attack the frame!
In fact, Lin Long suggested that Bird should do what Nelson and Popovich did. The Lakers would foul O'Neal without the ball as long as they released the ball, completely disrupting the Lakers' offensive and defensive rhythm.
It's a pity that Bird was born in a top superstar after all, and has the bottom line and dignity of a superstar.
In order to foul O'Neal, Bird also deliberately replaced Big Ben and replaced the team's fifth inside line, Vitaly Bertapanko!
"Vitali, listen, you don't need to think about anything after you're on the court." Bird commanded: "You don't need to do anything except the foul after O'Neal takes the ball, understand (dbdd)?
Vitali nodded, this season he only played less than 8 minutes per game, but has 2.9 fouls.
Full description, Vitaly is a natural foul guy!
When the timeout came back, O'Neal found that the big money had gone down, and the Celtics had replaced a guy he had never seen before, and he couldn't help shaking his heart... He had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, on the offensive end, this guy didn't know what to do at all. He just stood at the top of the arc and kept covering and blocking the passing teammates, but Vitali was neither smooth nor out of place. Cut, but blocked the way of the teammates, helping the opponent to form a double team for the teammates.
This time the attack, the Celtics also naturally because of this, failed to be able to score.
And when it came to the Lakers' offense, O'Neal cautiously wanted to try first since this kid can't attack, whether he has some unique skills on the defensive end, and immediately began to turn his back and ask for the ball.
I don't know, O'Neal-Ka got into physical contact and immediately found that the guy behind him was as soft as noodles. His strength was not at the same level as Big Ben, and he could handle him at will!
Excited, O'Neal immediately stretched out his hand for the ball. He felt that this kid was not a secret weapon at all, or that Big Ben couldn't stand it because he was beaten by himself, and asked to go down and rest for a while.
Bryant's pass came quickly and comfortably passed into O'Neal's hands.
"Boy, are you ready to make out with Uncle Shaq?" O'Neal smiled lewdly, and was about to say another cruel word to educate this guy he had never seen before, but the next second, O'Neal's laughter Just stopped again.
Vitali didn't mean to compete with O'Neal at all. He hugged O'Neal directly, and then raised his hand at the referee innocently, expressing that he had committed a foul.
O'Neal's face was so ugly that he was bleeding.
He understands what this kid is here for, it's not a secret weapon, and he doesn't have any powerful tricks. This kid is here to be cannon fodder!
The frustrated O'Neal walked to the free throw line angrily, looking at his expression, as if he was not going to the free throw at all, but to the funeral.
Because O'Neal has a hunch, what will he face in the next game.
Far away in San Antonio, Popovich slapped his thigh, bounced off the stool, and said excitedly: "Genius! Definitely a genius tactic! This will perfectly limit O'Neal! Hahaha, but the Celtics did it. It's not good enough, if it were me, I would foul O'Neal without the ball in every round, hehe, hey, I have to do it thoroughly!"
In Dallas, Don Nelson, who had a huge beer belly but was still drinking beer, watched what Vitali did, and smirked and took another gulp of beer: "O'Neal may still be the league's nightmare, but now , we can also let him have nightmares with us!"
O'Neal walked to the free throw line, his free throws were still weak, all 2 free throws were hit with iron, Lin Long directly rushed to the rebound and took it off, and then looking in the direction, before the person hit the ground, he directly used his waist and threw the basketball out. !
The basketball spanned half the court to the Lakers' 3-point line.
Here, Aaron, who has just played, has cheated Fisher with several consecutive fake moves, easily grabbed the basketball, and rushed directly to the basket.
In the face of Kobe, who was quickly returning to defense, Aaron was not afraid at all, and rushed up to meet Kobe. After another fierce physical confrontation, Aaron made a difficult layup with a lever to reduce the score to 5 points again! .
