0-6, David Robinson wants the ball, and he wants to play one single and the other.

Avery Johnson passed the ball very steadily. David Robinson received the ball from mid-range and forced O'Neal. Zhang Hao also took it back. However, David Robinson had excellent face frame skills, height, wingspan, and bounce speed. David Robinson pushed the ball upwards, and neither O'Neal nor Zhang Hao intercepted it.

David Robinson's strong turn and high throwing is truly awesome. Basically, no second center can be found to be able to do it. Zhang Hao looked alive and looked like an enlarged version of Howard. With the ball control and shooting feel, the high throwing is very delicate.

When the Lakers attacked, Zhang Hao continued to run out of the inside and came to the position about 80 cm outside the three-point line to receive the ball.

Pippen wanted to pounce on him and steal, block, fight, fight... Just forget about fight, fight, fight, be bullied for two years, he held back and stayed within the three-point line, guarding against Zhang Hao forcing a strong breakthrough.

Zhang Hao adjusted and shot three-pointer...

Pippen directly chose to turn around and rush in to help his teammates grab rebounds. David Robinson was only responsible for getting the position this time and handed over the rebounds to Pippen and Vir Peldo.

O'Neal was tough at the basket and prepared to try and grab three... The ball plunged into the basket!

I actually entered!

A group of people at the basket turned to look at Zhang Hao's back to defense, O'Neal was ecstatic, and the Spurs players scolded...

On the way back to the backcourt, Zhang Hao shook his hand and made two shots. He felt that the extended three-point line and his shooting in the top arc area were probably not much different from the side lines on both sides, which was a bit painful... But fortunately, Xia Tian practiced this purpose! In summer, he practiced the regular top arc three-point line as a two-point line with a fixed distance, and the 7.25-meter three-point line as a three-point line, otherwise he would not even have such a level.

It’s not that he is arrogant and fighting. He is trying this way in the book of war. He has certain abilities in this area, so he can try it. If he can make a move and expand the space, the game will be much smoother.

Now, I've entered.

9-2, the Lakers led by 7 points and the Spurs attacked.

The ball was still in the hands of David Robinson. When Zhang Hao contracted to the basket, Weir Peldo moved to the free throw line to help Pippen block Rick Fox. Kenny Anderson made up in time and emptied Avery Johnson who had no three-point ability, but Kenny Anderson failed to stop Pippen from receiving the ball. Pippen received the ball and broke to close range. He threw the ball before Zhang Hao turned around to make up for defense... hit!

Zhang Hao could tell at a glance that the Spurs' double tower tactics and the forward guards' swinging man with comprehensive skills. This was the cooperation between Duncan, Rasue Nestrovic and Ginobili, who were originally in the 2005 playoffs.

Small-scale cooperation depends purely on personal ability.

Popovich's coaching ability is much more comprehensive than Larry Brown. After all, in addition to studying with Larry Brown for a few years, Popovich also spent two years with Old Nelson.

When the Lakers attack, they have a 5-point lead, so keep playing!

The rest of the team will ignore it. If he can adapt to the new three-point line in advance before January 1, of course, it will not be as accurate as the top arc area of ​​the three-point line now. The main thing is to get used to the playing style first and will definitely be one step ahead.

This time, Pippen did not let Zhang Hao make a random shot. As soon as Zhang Hao came to the three-point line, he received the ball, and Pippen immediately posted it on.

In the expected situation, Zhang Hao pressed Pippen with his left elbow, turned right, and broke through!

Pippen thought Zhang Hao would crush him and was ready to fall, but Zhang Hao's acting skills were also very good. His little eyes completely deceived Pippen.

Turn right and break into the inside line. Zhang Hao slowed down, stopped urgently on the left side of the free throw line, and passed back to the top arc!

When Zhang Hao received the ball, Rick Fox saw Pippen pressing towards Zhang Hao and immediately ran from the bottom line on the right side of the three-second zone from the middle to the top arc. His teammates' action prediction and decision-making ability were extremely outstanding!

Vir Peldo went to attack Zhang Hao with Pippen. Rick Fox received the ball and made a three-pointer in the top arc!

12-4, the Lakers' lead expanded to 8 points, and the Spurs called a timeout!

In the first five rounds, the Lakers scored every round, and Popovich was about to explode on the spot.

If this continues, the Lakers can widen the gap to double digits in less than half a quarter.

The Spurs made a lot of preparations, but obviously, the Lakers on the opposite side were more prepared.

Popovich understood why the Lakers seemed to be inadequate when playing against the Cavaliers... It can be regarded as a priority for their Spurs.

O'Neal's adjustments to the double towers with strong defense, combined with Zhang Hao's simple but effective finishing ability, is simply amazing!

But this is not the fundamental reason for widening the gap. Popovich could also expect that O'Neal's adjustment of his playing style was just that he made a tactical plan. Without knowing what kind of adjustments O'Neal would make, of course he could only formulate tactics according to the successful defensive strategies of the Heat, Jazz and 76ers.

When O'Neal was able to complete such adjustments based on the team's good configuration, Popovich could only sigh that this was the young super giant. When he became the head coach, David Robinson was already 32 years old and had a year of reimbursement.

At this time, Popovich, like the teacher Larry Brown, who had a deep influence on him, began to strengthen his defense.

On the other hand, Zhang Hao is more looking forward to extending the three-point line!

The three-point line is extended by 55 cm, which is too comfortable for a breakthrough player who can adapt to such a distance from the three-point line. The basketball court is so big, and the space changes of more than half a meter have a huge impact.

What kind of impact will the defensive end have? This is not important to them, and other teams also need to be adjusted, and everyone is the same.

But they have O'Neal. If Zhang trains three-pointers better, he can also have the original three-point line in the extended top arc area, reaching a level close to the top level, the space will be wider, his breakthrough will be more beneficial, and O'Neal will also be more beneficial to score at the basket.

Not only him, but also O'Neal, the Silver Fox and the Lakers' tactical core members, saw this.

Originally, they would be more or less uneasy about the extension of the three-point line. Their shooting in the top arc area would be affected, but when the returns are very generous, there is no problem. Just work hard to strengthen this aspect.

This is a later story. Now, the Silver Fox is just Zhang Hao's three-point split between 1 of 2.

...

After the timeout, the Spurs did not substitution, and they did not play anything. They performed well in two rounds of tactics, made 1 of 2 shots, and scored two goals in the past 3 rounds. It was actually very good, but the Lakers played too well.

The Silver Foxes' side is very simple. Jason Williams replaces Doug Christie, Kenny Anderson, Zhang Hao, Rick Fox and O'Neal to play.

Pippen didn't meet Popovich's expectations...

At the end of the half, O'Neal played 20 minutes to score 12 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks. Zhang Hao played the whole first half, making 7 of 14 shots, including 4 of 9 three-pointers, plus 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 21 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.

The Lakers led the Spurs 15 points 59-44, setting the victory!

With such a difference, the Lakers played steadily behind him, and Zhang Hao stopped making a random shot, so he played well and wasted his time with the Spurs.

The rogue temperament still shines on the Lakers. Popovich is really incapable of making a move. Unless he played the bad game last year, he has already felt very lucky to be able to exchange a No. 3 pick for Pippen...

In the second half, the Lakers maintained a steadily lead of more than 10 points. Pippen tried to lead the team to counterattack, but without Jordan, even with David Robinson, he could not do much. He basically did not have the ability to raise the team's upper limit.

In the end, relying on O'Neal's performance of 19 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 blocks, and Zhang Hao's performance of 33 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, the Lakers steadily defeated the Spurs 110-94!

When the final whistle sounded, Zhang Hao, who had played in the first half and played for 16 minutes in the second half, felt that the world was dim. When this guy was developing the back-playing game, he was a sparring player. Now he is a sparring player in advance. He is still a sparring player in advance!

The most terrifying thing is that this young young man who only turns 21 next month has already practiced the 7.25-meter three-point extension next month!

There was a lucky component tonight. He Pippen's first two goals were not pressed. He played for 40 minutes tonight. In the 8 minutes he rested, Zhang Hao came on the court. No one expanded to defend Zhang Hao. He was shot 3 times by Zhang Hao, 2 of 3 shots. When he Pippen pressed to defend, Zhang Hao only made 1 of 4 three-pointers from a distance.

But Zhang Hao is so tall that he is difficult to be blocked. He is very accurate when adjusting well. The most important thing is that he has talent and room for improvement... This is why Pippen is a little lucky, and he is glad that he has won 4 championships...

In addition to this, there is another thing he envies Rick Fox's tactical status and the room to play.

If he was Rick Fox, he would definitely be able to perform beyond his limits of his strength. He could feel that he was very compatible with the head horse combination.

However, if he chose to leave Jordan because of money, he had no reason to leave. The Lakers obviously could not give the Spurs so much money. Next season, Zhang Hao and O'Neal will have 30 million...

With 4 championships in hand, Pippen wants to compete for the championship, but the money is still in the front position...

...

...

The Lakers beat the Spurs and their record increased to 18 wins and 1 loss!

The hot start is still continuing!

The Lakers' style of playing has made the Spurs at a loss, but Zhang Hao suddenly adjusted his style of playing, and the team's tactics and teammates' adaptability can keep up. This is the real strength of the Lakers.

Tonight, the Lakers made 12 of 22 three-pointers, and 36 points in a single three-pointer... At this time, some teams who were worried about the extension of the three-point line suddenly felt that the extension of the three-point line was not a bad thing.

Tonight, the Lakers have 6 three-pointers that were not Zhang Hao who made it in the top arc area!
