Chapter 204 Competition

Lu Yusheng lowered his focus and stared at Devin Harris.

Devin Harris began to change direction and dribble in front of his body.

Lu Yusheng knew that this guy's breakthrough speed was very fast, so he deliberately kept a certain distance back to avoid being passed by him in one step.

After Devin Harris dribbled in various directions, he felt that Lu Yusheng had maintained a good sense of distance and there was no room for a direct breakthrough, so he began to dribble in dribbling directions.

Lu Yusheng could see that Devin Harris had to hit him head-on with this ball, and there was no intention of passing the ball.

Therefore, Lu Yusheng became more cautious and subconsciously stepped back some space.

But just when he retreated some space, Devin Harris suddenly pulled up and shot directly!

Oops, it’s a little too big!

At this ball, Lu Yusheng also realized that in order to prevent Devin Harris from breaking through, he stepped back a little too much, so he hurried forward to block the shot!

But it was obviously a little late. This space was enough for Devin Harris to shoot.

Score in!

After the ball was made, Lu Yusheng suddenly noticed that Devin Harris made an OK gesture towards the boss Cuban on the sidelines.

Cuban also gave him a look.

Only then did Lu Yusheng understand that it turned out that Devin Harris came with Cuban's mission. Lu Yusheng immediately remembered the interview about Cuban that he saw today.

It seems that the old boy Cuban is indeed not very big. After accepting such an interview, he actually thought of letting his point guard Devin Harris beat Lu Yusheng after he came on the court to prove his remarks.

, Lu Yusheng was indeed blown up by reporters, and he did not have any real information.

No wonder Devin Harris was like a chicken after facing Lu Yusheng, insisting on scoring one-on-one without looking at the position of his teammates.

But this is pretty good.

Lu Yusheng thought to himself, since you want to beat me so much, then I will give you this opportunity. After all, he had to use the provocation method before to make the opponent's point guard challenge him in various ways. This time he did not use the provocation method.

, the effect is achieved, isn’t it pretty good?

"It seems that Lu Yusheng let Harris play a little too much with the ball just now," Alan Zucker said, "giving him enough space to shoot."

"Yes, this is indeed Lu Yusheng's weakness all along. When he faces a point guard who is too fast, he always seems to be a little wary and is afraid that the opponent will break through him, so he always takes a big step back, but

This is actually not necessary," A. Smith said. "In fact, for any player, you cannot completely prevent other people's breakthroughs, even the best defensive player.

Because in basketball, offense always has the advantage over defense, so if I have the opportunity to talk to Lu Yusheng, I will definitely tell him this truth. Don't leave so much space just because you are afraid of being penetrated.

After that, there are still opportunities for your teammates to cover up, but if you give the opponent enough space to shoot, they will shoot directly and you will have no chance to stop them."

Alan Zucker smiled and said, "After this game, we must arrange for you to meet with him. You must tell him this wise saying, otherwise his career will be affected."

"Well, after this game, I have to interview him. I'm ready."

Return to the playing field.

Lakers ball rights.

Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball past half court. Because of the triangle attack just now, Lu Yusheng passed the ball directly to Luke Walton, who was already waiting at the central axis.

Luke Walton holds the ball to provide support.

But this time, the Dallas Mavericks obviously made a change. They suddenly changed their formation and adopted a defense switching strategy.

Instead of letting their small forward Josh Howard guard Walton, they switched defenses with Josh Howard and power forward Nowitzki, and let Nowitzki guard Luke Walton.

At this time, Luke Walton felt a little uncomfortable.

Although Nowitzki has always been criticized by the media and fans for his defense, it is not easy for him to defend a white man at the third position, Luke Walton, an athletic player with his height and wingspan.

Take it easy.

When Luke Walton saw this situation, he knew something was wrong. His passing vision was completely restricted by Nowitzki's height and wingspan, and he could not see the movement and movement of his teammates at all.

After several attempts, Nowitzki almost intercepted the ball.

Seeing this, Lu Yusheng hurriedly threw away Devin Harris, ran out of the three-point line and waved to Luke Walton for the ball.

Luke Walton also felt the defensive threat and passed the ball directly!

But I didn't expect that as soon as the ball was passed, Nowitzki knocked it away. Although he didn't steal the ball directly, he changed the direction of the ball. Josh Howard had quick eyes and quick hands and collected the ball!

"Luke Walton made a mistake in passing the ball, and the Mavericks directly stole it! The Mavericks launched a fast break!" Alan Zucker shouted, "Oh, the Lakers players didn't expect that they would make a mistake at all, so they had no preparation at all.

, Moreover, in this ball, the Mavericks' fast break was also quite beautiful. Devin Harris dribbled past Vujacic first, and then deceived Odom with a fake pass, and quickly found the ball that was already about to go down.

Jason Terry went straight to the empty basket!"

"This shot is indeed beautiful." A. Smith said, "And I didn't expect that when the Lakers' triangle offense scored just now, the Mavericks did not call a timeout. In the next round, the players on the court can directly change themselves.

The formation changed defense, and this change of defense was quite effective. It directly cut off the Lakers' ball and successfully counterattacked. It is really amazing."

"Is it possible that this temporary change of formation is a tactic they prepared in advance?" Alan Zucker said, "After all, everyone knows that the triangle offense is the signature tactic of the Lakers, so I guess Ever

Lee Johnson probably made preparations in advance, so the players could immediately execute defense switching tactics without a timeout."

"I think it must be like this." A. Smith said, "This must be the tactical arrangement they have made before. So I have always said that the reason why the Dallas Mavericks are strong is mainly because their tactical execution ability is really good.

It's too strong. At this point, they can compete with the San Antonio Spurs. Tactical execution is the symbol of a strong team. This is why the Dallas Mavericks are strong."

On the court, the Lakers had the ball, and Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball past half court.

This time, he handed the ball to Luke Walton first.

But as soon as Luke Walton caught the ball, the Dallas Mavericks immediately changed their formation, and it was Nowitzki who faced Luke Walton.

This time, Luke Walton did not delay and passed the ball directly back to Lu Yusheng.

He also knows very well that when Nowitzki faces him, the triangle offense cannot be played at all.

Lu Yusheng held the ball and waved for Vujacic to step forward to pick and roll for him.

"Oh, it seems that this time the Lakers have to give up their triangle offensive tactics and switch to pick-and-roll tactics." Alan Zucker said.

"This is normal," A. Smith said. "You have to know that originally this season, when Lu Yusheng was on the court, the Lakers rarely played triangle offensive tactics. Instead, they used the pick-and-roll tactics that Lu Yusheng was good at. So just now

Once the Dallas Mavericks change their lineup, the Lakers will definitely no longer use the triangle offensive tactic.

After all, the triangle offensive tactic has high requirements for tactical axis players. In fact, the reason why the Lakers struggled so hard in the playoffs last season was because of Luke Walton’s support ability.

It is really limited, because his physical condition is limited, so he is really too good to be targeted.

Later, the coaches in the league basically reached a consensus, that is, if you want to limit the Lakers' triangle offense, it is very simple, just let the strongest defensive player on your team limit Luke Walton. Once

If Luke Walton is restricted, it will be difficult for the Lakers' triangle offense to run."

"You are right," Alan Zucker said. "Last season, when the Suns reversed the Lakers in the playoffs, the Suns' head coach D'Antoni also said the same. He said that the Lakers

It is purely supported by Kobe's personal ability. Once they find a way to limit the triangle offense, the comeback will only be a matter of time."

"Yes, last season, the Lakers were able to reach that position because of Kobe's personal ability. If Kobe hadn't been at his peak, it would have been impossible for the Lakers to reach the playoffs with the lineup they had last season.

"

On the court, Lu Yusheng used his exquisite ground-breaking pass after the pick-and-roll to create a completely unguarded open shooting opportunity for Vujacic. Vujacic did not let Lu Yusheng down and made the shot easily.

This season, under the influence of Lu Yusheng, Vujacic's mid-range shooting ability has become more stable. After all, most of his shots are open shooting opportunities created by Lu Yusheng.

Looking back, the Dallas Mavericks attacked. After Devin Harris pretended to pass the ball several times, he got the ball back. Facing Lu Yusheng, he started dribbling to beat Lu Yusheng in isolation.

This time, Lu Yusheng learned the defensive lesson from the last time and did not leave much space for Devin Harris to shoot.

Devin Harris began to drastically change direction and dribble, and Lu Yusheng felt the defensive pressure.

These guys with extremely explosive power and speed are really difficult to defend.

Suddenly, Devin Harris suddenly broke through to the right, and the system's prediction immediately appeared in Lu Yusheng's mind. This was a fake move!

Therefore, Lu Yusheng just pretended to move to the left, but his body's center of gravity was still maintained.

Sure enough, Devin Harris thought Lu Yusheng had been deceived, so he immediately made a drastic change in direction, quickly pulled the ball back, and then quickly broke through to the left!

But what he didn't expect was that Lu Yusheng suddenly withdrew and immediately blocked his breakthrough route!

Not only that, Lu Yusheng’s hand has already moved quickly towards the basketball!

Devin Harris was shocked when he saw this!

Dribble backward immediately!

So close!

It was almost cut off by Lu Yusheng!

But for this goal, Devin Harris, who Lu Yusheng had already forced, was quite embarrassed. In order to avoid Lu Yusheng's steal, he stepped back so hard that he almost staggered and lost his balance. If it weren't for his excellent body balance, he would have almost lost his footing.

About to fall to the ground.

He dribbled the ball and looked up at the rookie in front of him, his eyes obviously full of surprise. Under that situation, with his early change of direction just now, he would have easily passed most of the point guards in the league.
