The Heat requested a timeout.

"I have to say that there is something to be said for Zen Master's formation. In the past few rounds of offense and defense after the timeout, the Lakers played vigorously. Not only did they successfully limit the Heat's offense, but their own offense also blossomed.

, which is a bit unacceptable to Pat Riley." William Jones said.

Larry Bird said, "Jones, this is not just the work of Zen Master. Obviously, the No. 6 rookie of the Lakers played a big role after coming on the court. First of all, he successfully restricted Dwyane Wade on the defensive end.

, you know, before that timeout, the reason why they were overtaken by the Heat was because Smushparker was unable to restrict Wade, allowing Wade to use his breakthroughs to continuously drive his teammates."

"After No. 6 came on the court, he restricted Wade's breakthrough in the first round. This resulted in Wade being unable to continue to drive his teammates to score in these rounds. On the offensive end, Lu also successfully used him.

The pick-and-roll tactics liberated Kobe, and he sent three assists in three consecutive rounds. This is his contribution after coming on the court."

"Yeah, now it looks like it will be difficult for the Heat to play in the next game." William Jones asked.

"No, no, no, it's too early to draw a conclusion now. It depends on the Heat's adjustments. After all, they still have an absolute advantage in strength. I think their rhythm has been disrupted by the Lakers' No. 6 rookie in the past few rounds.

, so the fight was a bit urgent,

Especially for O'Neal, he should be calmer. The Lakers obviously have a strategy against him, but he didn't seem to take this into consideration. He played too anxiously in both attacks. Pat Riley should have seen this.

, that’s why we called this timeout. I think when the timeout happens, Pat Riley will definitely remind O’Neal and Wade.”

The timeout is over and the game continues!

What surprised Lu Yusheng was that after the timeout, the Heat replaced Haslem at No. 4 and directly replaced him with another defender, Harris Quinn.

Lu Yusheng was a little confused about Pat Riley's substitution. With three defenders on the field, are they going to focus on the outside?

But they clearly have a center like O'Neal, so why do they play outside?

Heat offense.

O'Neal once again asked for the ball inside, but Bynum still resisted. As soon as O'Neal got the ball, other Heat teammates quickly pulled away to the outside!

Lu Yusheng instantly understood the intention of Pat Riley's substitution!

With three guards replaced, plus Dorell Wright at the third position, they all have long-range shooting capabilities.

When they stretched outside, the Lakers' defensive players no longer dared to risk double-teaming O'Neal.

This creates greater singles space for O'Neal.

Sure enough, this time, when O'Neal defeated Bynum alone, the Lakers could no longer help defend.

O'Neal easily scored the ball against Bynum's defense!

"This principle is very simple. When you want to play inside, you must first have a good outside line to attract firepower. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the inside line is, it will be difficult to function in the face of the opponent's help defense. Pat Riley's change

The purpose is very clear, that is to beat O'Neal." Larry Bird said.

Lakers attack!

Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball past half-court. Walton originally planned to pick him up, but this time, Lu Yusheng waved his hand and refused.

He dribbled right to Odom.

Without any hesitation, he lobbed the ball directly to Odom.

The Lakers have also used a small lineup before to defend the SuperSonics' three-pointers, so Lu Yusheng naturally knows that his weakness is his height.

Odom is currently facing off against the opponent's No. 3 position, Dorell Wright, who is almost a head taller than Dorell.

Odom held the ball and took it alone, dribbling inward.

Dorell was completely unable to guard against Odom and was pushed back in!

Once he was very close to the basket, Odom turned around and shot a hook shot!

Dorrell didn't even jump to block the shot. He was pinned behind Odom and couldn't move at all.

However, behind Dorrell!

O'Neal suddenly fell from the sky and slapped the shot away!

"This is why Pat Riley dares to use such a small lineup. Shaq's defensive coverage in the interior is really too great. Even if Dorell can't stop Odom's big attack, at least O'Neal is there to protect him in the interior.

." Larry Bird said.

Back to the Heat's offensive round, when O'Neal once again got the ball inside, their other teammates still quickly moved outside.

This made the Lakers still dare not go up and double-team O'Neal. O'Neal walked in with Bynum on his back, and suddenly turned around unprepared and directly passed Bynum!

An earth-shaking, powerful dunk!!

Lu Yusheng felt that at this time, Master Zen should call a timeout and discuss tactics to restrict O'Neal. After all, these two single shots really hurt the morale of the Lakers.

The home fans were silenced.

But unexpectedly, the Zen master was sitting there, motionless.

It seems that O'Neal's continuous solo attack will not pose a threat to the Lakers at all.

Lu Yusheng couldn't guess what the old man was thinking for a while.

Lakers offense.

After Lu Yusheng found the ball and dribbled past half court, he hesitated for a while, not knowing what tactics to use.

Originally, with the current situation on the court, it would have been most appropriate for Odom to go big and play small. But Odom was frustrated last time, and this time he didn't even actively ask for the ball.

Lu Yusheng had no choice but to pass the ball to Walton to start a triangle offense.

But the Heat currently have a small lineup on the court, so they can switch defenses indefinitely without giving anyone else on the Lakers a chance to get open.

Walton held the ball for a long time and couldn't pass it out. There was not much time left, so he had to leave it to Kobe.

Kobe received the ball in the last five seconds, faced Wade's close defense, dribbled and moved around, and finally failed to get rid of Wade's candy-like defense, and could only resist him and shoot hard at the last second!

This ball...

Still score!

The Staples Center, which had been silent for a long time, finally burst into cheers.

However, Lu Yusheng knew that although the goal was scored, the Lakers' problem was not really solved.

On the defensive end, O'Neal cannot be restrained. On the offensive end, do we have to keep counting on Kobe to shoot this kind of magic ball?

This is not very realistic.
