During the break, TNT commentator Reggie Miller sighed: "Since I retired as a commentator, the Lakers have played a similar performance in the opening game in the playoffs. Only in the first round against the Suns in 2006, the entire Lakers team was almost collapsed by the Suns' defense. Kobe's long-range pitching feel was poor and it was difficult to cause damage to the breakthrough, which led to the entire Lakers team being confused."

"At present, the defense of this Thunder is more terrifying than the Suns in 2006. They firmly implement the double-team strategy to limit the Lakers' outside breakthroughs. The joint defense formation rotation is also very timely. They are not like young teams at all, but quite like the Spurs."

"If I have the chance, I want to shoot a documentary to see how Su Yang accomplished such an excellent job."

Host Kevin Harlan responded: "I believe in the Lakers, because compared with 2006, they have more Paul Gasol..."

The pause ended between the two people's conversation.

The announcer once again informed that the Lakers sent Gasol again and replaced Bynum to create the strongest lineup.

Benefiting from the excellent work of the Thunder scouts and the understanding of Phil Jackson as a Lakers fan, Su Yang arranged Green to appear on the court and boldly replaced Chandler, on the one hand, let Chandler rest and on the other hand, match the speed.

The game started again, and the Lakers, like Su Yang predicted, accelerated the pace and greatly simplified the triangular offense.

Kobe started to play duo game with Gasol, bullying Ibaka, and his brain was slow. He assisted Gasol to score in mid-range and long-range shots one after another, and gave up his personal singles and strong shots. He also patiently directed Atai and others to take the position. Even if he didn't have the ball in his hand, he took the initiative to cover it and tried his best to let Atai and others find the offensive feeling. He was like a head coach on the court, very selfless.

After Gasol scored twice in a row, Su Yang consciously and carefully observed how Kobe led the entire team. He found that Kobe played nearly perfectly, which can be regarded as a classic case of triangular offense and even team offense. It should be recorded as a teaching.

But perhaps because he cared too much about his teammates' performance, Kobe no longer shot three-pointers, no longer cut without a ball, and was a bit self-destructive.

After Su Yang confirmed, he decisively directed Sefrosa to shrink double-team more boldly on the offensive end, even on the strong side.

After hearing the order, Sefrosa asked twice in a row, afraid that she had heard it wrong, and then did it with surprise.

I thought that after a few rounds, I really successfully reduced the Lakers' scoring efficiency by letting Kobe out.

At the end of the first quarter, the Thunder took a strong lead of 12 points, and the Lakers' shooting percentage was only 36.4%.

When TNT live broadcast summary, Reggie Miller's face was even more surprised than Sefrosa said: "Since Su Yang became the Trail Blazers assistant coach, I have been refreshed by many of his offensive and defensive strategies. Tonight I actually saw him letting his teammates vacate Kobe on the strong side. That was equivalent to deliberately letting the enemy enter his camp with nuclear weapons when fighting, and completely ignored it..."

Kevin Harlan sighed: "He succeeded. Kobe scored 0 points and 4 assists in the first quarter, and had 2 mistakes..."

TNT reporter Craig Seger took the two of them to interview Su Yang in surprise, and asked curiously why he dared to do so.

Su Yang smiled and said, "It's not that we dare to let Kobe go, but that he chose to give up the attack..."

Between a question and an answer, the second quarter will start.

In terms of lineup, the Lakers are Bynum Kobe, with Odom, Shannon Brown and Famar.

The Thunder is Chandler Green, with Harden, Matthews, and Collison, and the overall height advantage is great.

Kobe changed to the small forward position and still insisted on making his teammates look for a sense of the play first and was ready to take his time.

I thought that Odom's breakthrough was average and lacked continuity, and could not force the Thunder to change its defensive strategy, and did not have the habit and strength to drill hard at the basket. After Su Yang discovered it, he directed Green to boldly execute early defense help.

The so-called early defense help means that the weak side players run to the potential ball holding point first to help their teammates block one side.

Green did that, Bynum was forced to launch more attacks from the online direction, and his overall lethality was greatly reduced.

In order to solve the problem, Bynum could only block the position more fiercely and effort, which led to a significant increase in the difficulty of receiving the ball.

What's even more embarrassing is that, except for Kobe who can accurately lob the ball to Bynum, the other players will either have an outrageous direction or poor timing control and will always be disturbed by the Thunder when lobbling the ball to Bynum.

Sometimes, Bynum even tried his best to complete the position, but Famal raised his hand and threw the ball to the other side.

Su Yang was stunned for a moment, and for a second he couldn't help but suspect that Famal bets the Lakers lost 50 times.

But when he saw Brown run to Kobe's position in the next round, he was sure that the two were really good.

After finishing the second quarter in the first few minutes, Su Yang had only two simple commands, and the Thunder successfully completed the extravagance of the second team and the pure main lineup. After Durant, Westbrook and Ibaka made a comeback, they firmly grasped the situation.

Kobe also gave up leading his teammates and began to play or break through with a bold back. However, he scored continuously, but it was useless.

After the first half, the Thunder led by 13 points. In addition to fouls and mistakes, all the data were more than the Lakers.

After returning to the locker room after halftime, Su Yang was sure that the Lakers would increase their defensive strength. He estimated that even Bynum would snatch it out during pick-and-roll, and then decided to let the Thunder generals focus on rebounds and encourage Westbrook to grab more offensive rebounds.

As for the defensive end, stick to the second half strategy, take advantage of the Lakers' impatient mentality, and try to make more fouls.

The Thunder generals brought Su Yang's instructions to return to the court, and the third quarter started. Sefrosa's first attack caused Kobe's foul on the thug, which not only increased Kobe's personal foul three times, but also made three consecutive free throws, instantly increasing his momentum.

The Lakers increased their defensive actions very unconvinced, but Su Yang reminded that the Thunder generals were prepared long ago.

Durant, Westbrook and Green took turns to hit the basket and received as many as 15 free throws, causing Bynum to leave the court early. On the contrary, Harden, who is famous for his free throws, did not have a free throw in the entire third quarter, such as playing in a training match.

After Bynum left the court early, the Lakers lacked the frame protection in the interior, and the Thunder frequently grabbed offensive rebounds.

The Lakers cannot open the offensive end and are unable to effectively crack the Thunder joint defense. Because the offensive end is too deep, it cannot retreat in time when shooting. The Thunder repeatedly counterattacks and scores easily, and its momentum is becoming more and more vigorous.

After the third quarter, the Thunder led the Lakers by as many as 22 points, and the key was to destroy the Lakers' desire to win.

After the fourth quarter, the Lakers did not use two main players and three substitutes like they did in the early stage of the second quarter. Even Odom did not come on, and directly sent five pure substitutes, including ten thousand-year water dispenser Adam Morrison.

Such operations indicate that the Lakers have made an early shot and admitted defeat, and Su Yang also took advantage of the timeout to send a pure substitute lineup.

But in that way, the Thunder lineup still had the advantage and eventually defeated the Lakers 114-89.

When the ringtone rang in the final game, Su Yang walked towards the technical table inertia and prepared to shake hands with the head coach of the opponent's team.

But before I could get to the position, I saw Phil Jackson taking the Lakers coaching staff away and had to give up.

In the whole game, the Thunder's highest score was Durant, with only 22 points, but the team's six players scored in double digits.

At the post-match press conference, the reporter asked why he performed so well in the first stop and could significantly limit the Lakers on the defensive end.
