Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 989: Lakers Twin Towers

After a warm-up, the players from both sides returned to the sidelines.

The Lakers players surrounded the head coach Mike Brown. Coach Brown spread out the tactical board and made the pre-game layout: "First of all, we must do a good job of defense, especially against Qin." He looked at Kobe, "Kobe, Wait to defend Qin, Fisher, stay close and don't let him make three-pointers lightly."

"Yeah." Kobe nodded.

According to the matchup, it should be Lakers point guard Derek Fisher and Qin Hao, but Lao Yu is already in his 30s, and he is afraid of being young and unable to keep up with Qin Hao's speed. Moreover, Lao Yu was only 185 cm tall, and he was ten centimeters shorter against a three-point shooter like Qin Hao, and it was difficult for him to limit Qin Hao's three-point shooting.

So Kobe can only defend Qin Hao.

Coach Brown glanced at Kobe and other players, and nodded secretly. As long as Qin Hao is guarded, everything else is not a concern. The inside team has an absolute advantage.

"As for the offensive end." Coach Brown said again: "We play step by step, pay attention to running more, pull people away, and play a combination of inside and outside."

"Yes." Several people nodded together.

The existing "Twin Towers" of Gasol and Bynum in the Lakers team can be said to have a great advantage against any team. The 3rd and 1st positions are slightly weaker, but the 2nd position has Kobe.

So as long as the Lakers' offense can combine inside and outside, the inside players help Kobe attract defense, share the pressure, and the old fish on the outside will organize well and feed Kobe the ball well, and the rest will be easy to handle.

The 76ers are here.

Coach Luke looked serious and said: "The opponent's inside line has a height advantage. We have to fight for rebounds. Also, shrink the line of defense and help defend in time."

Several people nodded together.

Qin Hao frowned, Gasol + Bynum, this twin tower combination is indeed tricky, it is equivalent to two All-Star-level centers teaming up, and the inside is estimated to be a no-fly zone.

This kind of twin towers sitting on the inside will make it difficult for the 76ers to attack, and it is very difficult to break through and score. It must rely more on outside shooting.

And, on the defensive end, they have to shrink the line of defense and help defend in time, because only Nene and Speights can't prevent Gasol and Bynum.

"Qin." Coach Luke shouted.

"Coach." Qin Hao recovered.

Coach Luke said: "You play against Kobe. In addition to preventing Kobe as much as possible, you have to cut off his contact with his teammates, especially the two insiders."

Qin Hao nodded to express his understanding.

Although the opponent has the twin towers, the core of the tactics is Kobe. Only when Kobe opens up, other people, including the twin towers, will have more opportunities to play better.

So Qin Hao's heart is heavy, and his task is very heavy.

After that, Coach Luke arranged it again, clapped his hands and said: "Fight hard, come on!"

The game started quickly. The starting players from both sides came to the court. The 76ers were still the regular starters, and the Lakers were Gasol, Bynum, Mehta Waldpes, Kobe, and Fisher.

First jumped the ball, Bynum and Nene jumped the ball. After all, Bynum was a bit taller. He first touched the ball and slapped the ball into the backcourt. The old fish controlled the ball and launched an attack.

In the frontcourt, the old fish passed the ball to Kobe. The first offense today was obviously handed over to Kobe. Kobe took the ball and looked at Qin Hao in front of him with a smile on his mouth.

Qin Hao took a deep breath, lowered his center of gravity, and opened his hands to wait in a tight battle.

At the next moment, Kobe started, a probing step, and then changed directions and accelerated. Qin Hao quickly withdrew from his position and blocked Kobe’s breakthrough route. However, Kobe was clearly prepared and quickly turned halfway, changing from a face frame to a back basket. Qin Hao was still a bit inferior when he lowered his weight and played singles, and the two faced each other physically.

However, Kobe didn't press down to the basket all the time. Because Nene was still guarding the basket, he just pushed back two steps, and then his shoulders shook. It looked like he was about to turn over for a jumper, and Qin Hao subconsciously moved sideways. Kobe turned around again, instead of turning over a jumper, but instead made a head shot.

"Not good." Qin Hao's heart jumped and he hurried forward.

However, after all, he was still unable to touch the basketball. In addition to the very confusing fake action, Kobe also used the back of the final shot.

Huh!

With a soft sound, the ball is scored.

The Lakers moved first, and Kobe scored two points.

"This backward jumper is really hard to prevent." Qin Hao sighed. After Mr. Joe retired, the stunt of the backward jumper depends on Kobe.

This is really a big killer.

Many fans commented that James had no solution for his breakthrough and his rushing was unstoppable. Durant's shooting was unsolvable, the height of the center forward, and his excellent wingspan. What can he do for you to shoot? It can't be covered at all.

However, Qin Hao felt that people had missed Kobe's back, and this trick was inexplicable. Even if you didn't have Durant's height, you would still not be able to block it. The key is that they are still accurate.

"I have a chance to ask Kobe for advice." Qin Hao thought, grabbing the ball from the backcourt and starting to attack.

After passing the mid-line, Kobe greeted him. Everyone knew that Qin Hao had three-pointers. The main reason was that he "does not speak martial ethics" and threw the super-long three-pointer, so he had to act as soon as he saw him passing the mid-line.

At this moment, Kobe is also quite emotional. Qin Hao's style of play and his perception of basketball have some deviations. It is not good or bad. After all, basketball is a competitive sport. You can score and win.

Just seeing Qin Hao cross the center line, he will pounce on defense, or is it complicated for Kobe, when does defense need to be in the logo area?

"Pick and roll."

Facing Kobe, Qin Hao was still a little nervous. He didn't dare to ask for a pick-and-roll, and then the speed was fully opened, and one accelerated to the inside, facing Bynum.

Qin Hao's purpose is very clear, to commit a foul.

Dealing with the twin towers Qin Hao is not once or twice. In fact, there is no good way. It is the most direct and effective way to "make a foul" and knock out one of the twin towers.

However, the Lakers were clearly prepared for a long time. Bynum just jumped straight up and down without going forward. He raised his hands high and was not fooled.

Huh!

Qin Hao dropped a shot and scored.

As he turned around, Qin Hao frowned: "It seems that the trick of committing a foul is very difficult to work, so I can only rely on outside shooting."

In the next few rounds, Qin Hao made breakthroughs and still wanted to commit a foul. If one attempt failed, he would try a few more times. The result was still unsuccessful. Bynum stood still and would rather let Qin Hao score. Gasol was even more cunning. He got stuck first and stood in a favorable position. Either he was stuck inside with Bynum, two iron towers, even if he only raised his hands, he would cover the sky.

After several attempts, Qin Hao scored two goals, but none of the fouls were caused. Coach Luke couldn't help but frown. He looked at the bench and was about to substitute.

Since the "foul" is unsuccessful, where the opponent's twin towers are, they have to rely on outside shots.
