Chapter 209

Because the Lakers won the best record in the regular season, their schedule is different from Guo Xu's previous life, which makes it easier to avoid the Blazers and kings. Of course, even if you meet those two teams, it's no big deal. Despite the fact that the Lakers lost one game to them in the regular season, it's a hanging shot in the playoffs.

O'Neal in the playoffs is different from that in the regular season. He won't be lazy at both ends of attack and defense.

For Guo Xu, this is the best performance opportunity, his opponent is famous but poor defense Trier Brandon.

On April 21, the first game of the two sides started at Staples stadium. The first quarter of the triangle attack of the Lakers began to gain momentum, with Guo Xu, Kobe and O'Neal scoring in succession.

Phil Jackson let Guo Xu as the starting point, both ends of attack and defense can play a role, Fisher against Brandon will not hold the ball attack, defense is also more difficult.

Guo Xu single shot Brandon from far away, can shoot, close to the body can break, how to play how to have, the Timberwolves were forced to carry on the package to it in the periphery.

Guo Xu is an opportunity to attract Kobe after the assist defense, and Kobe passes O'Neal's low position singles. Dean Garnett, who is 208cm tall and weighs 102 kg, is more relaxed and incomparable. As long as they stand in the triangle, the Timberwolves are totally out of control.

Timberwolves center nestrovic was afraid to let him play because of his poor pick and roll defense against the Lakers two times before. Billups played the No. 2 opposition, and Kobe was also beaten, sitting on the bench today.

Kobe's advantage against Anthony Pyle is obvious, but it's not as big as position 1 and position 5, so he reduces his shot.

Just married, Kobe can't leave his wife to practice, "Zen master" to take care of the newlyweds, arranged tactics to let him play in the first round, Kobe couldn't find any reason to refute.

The first game of the Lakers 116-69 win 47 points, the Timberwolves into husky. The core of both teams only played about 30 minutes, and the last part was pure rubbish time.

Timberwolves not only poor defense, attack is also very bad, this game only "husky king" Garnett, lafonso Ellis two people score double.

Garnett made 7-of-18 shots, 4-out-of-4 free throws, 18 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists. He didn't beat his chest and roar when he scored from head to tail.

Derek Fisher made 7 of 10 shots, 2 out of 5 of 3, and 5 of 6 free throws got 21 points and 3 assists. O'Neal scored 24 points and 13 rebounds, and Guo Xu had 26 points and 7 assists. Kobe 15 points, grant 14 points, the team more points to bloom.

The situation of the Second World War and the first game of the two sides were similar. The Lakers had been leading in the opening three quarters, and sent all the substitutes to play. Many Laker fans felt bored and left early.

Although Garnett couldn't get into the penalty area at all, he felt a little better than on the field. He scored 22 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists, and the time difference between the data brush and the regular season was not much.

Unfortunately, with the exception of Garnett, the Timberwolves have never scored 15 points, and the total of five points is not much. The Timberwolves' substitute was completely suppressed, only 7 points in total.

The Laker this time is by Fisher, the Kobe second quarter belt substitution, two teams this is the bench bandit and the bench waste wood competition.

Guo Xu's play is more fierce than the field, 27 points, 3 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals, 13 points and 8 assists.

Shaquille O'Neal in the interior line is the unsolved bug, 33 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks, 10 shots from the free throw line. When O'Neal's free throw was not so bad, the Timberwolves had no way to take him.

Dean Garnett is probably the worst starting center in the playoffs. He only plays 11.9 minutes in the regular game, with 2.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, 0.3 assists and 0.7 blocks. It's also Garnett. The gap is too big.

On April 28, the third game of the two sides was held at Timberwolves home in Minnesota. The scene was still one-sided, and the strength gap could not be made up by the home post.

Sanders coach let nestrovich return to the starting defense of Shaquille O'Neal. As a result, O'Neill went out to play pick and roll with Guo Xu, so as to make room for Guo Xu to break through or Kobe Bryant's side cut attack.

Guo Xu outside jump shot three points, dislocation suddenly nestrovic is very easy, Kobe back hit height of 193cm piler efficiency is also very high, only 4 minutes, nestrovic two offense to rest.

The Timberwolves once made Shaquille Ellis, a short forward with a height of 203cm and a weight of 109kg, defend Shaquille O'Neal, but he became the "king of being blocked".

Garnett can only foul against O'Neill, otherwise it will be a smash. Garnett has always been a weak player in the restricted area, so he falsely reported his height when he first entered the league. His official height is 211cm and his actual height is 215cm. Other people are high newspaper, he put himself to the low newspaper, is not to play center.

Garnett, who claims to be able to defend five positions, doesn't want to defend Shaquille O'Neal, which will make him not tough enough. It's a pity that he still got one in the second quarter. The shark came too fast like a tornado. He couldn't escape without the storm circle.

In the second half, Kobe felt hot and could not make a breakthrough. He ruled the court with 20 points in a single quarter, but peler couldn't prevent it, and slyther, the substitute forward, couldn't prevent it. Kobe attracted the ball to the outside, and Guo Xu and Fisher also threw three points.The Lakers scored 41 points in this section, and the gap between the two sides was widened to 36 points, and the main players were off work.

It's always good to save face at other people's home. Jackson is afraid that the Timberwolves players will make a malicious foul. In fact, he was more concerned, every time the first round of the playoffs, Timberwolves are very miserable, long used to, their task is to enter the playoffs, successfully completed.

The Laker star played casually and won 117-83, sweeping out the Timberwolves 3-0.

In this era, the first round of NBA is three win elimination system. Timberwolves players are very happy about this. They don't want to play the fourth game at all.

After the game, Garnett's evaluation was far inferior to O'Neill. He had been scoring from jump shots outside the penalty area, shooting 44.3%, cutting 21 + 10 + 4, and playing 40 minutes per game.

Fans want to say that Garnett is tough, but there is no reason why he often faces the marginal man Ryan Bowen

O'Neill has absolute dominance in the interior, the two men's annual salary is almost the same, O'Neill more worthy of a huge salary.

After a five-day break, the Lakers waited for the second round of opponents to break through, and the Mavericks beat the old jazz 3-2.

With the Mavericks in this way, we know that the second round is no suspense.

The eastern 76ers eliminated the Pacers 3-1 in the first round. Kenny Anderson, who came from the Pacers' mid-term trade, missed the playoffs due to injury, and the reinforcement plan failed.

Iverson's performance is not very brave, the first game play is not as good as the Pacers Travis best. He made 7-for-19 shots, 4-out-of-3, 2-out of 3 free throws, only 16 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals. Best made 7-of-12 shots, 2-2 free throws, 16 points, 10 assists and 2 steals.

Iverson played 10 of 31 shots, 3 of 10 out of 3, 10 of 12 free throws and 33 points and 4 assists in Game 4, which was too low to see. The 76ers scored 88 points, but they limited their opponent's attack with excellent defense. The Pacers scored only 85 points and couldn't get into Mutombo's restricted area.

The 76ers are also difficult to advance. The winning points are within 10 points, which is too different from the crushing promotion of the Lakers. No one is optimistic about their sudden victory. It is good to break through in the East.
