Chapter 345

On the night of May 4, the Mavericks narrowly defeated the Lakers 107-100 at home, and eliminated the defending champion in the first round of the seven game tiebreaker.

The Lakers were six points ahead in the final quarter, and Michael Finley, one of the Mavericks' tridents, played abnormally. Unfortunately, the Lakers failed to maintain their advantage to the end.

Nowitzki played 46 minutes, the key moment did not drop the chain, cut 31 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals 3 blocks, and the shooting percentage was as high as 57.1%.

Nash smashed Fisher, scored 21 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists, and shot 50%.

The Mavericks' most important character is the backup guard "madman" Van Exel, who scored 12 points in the last quarter, giving the old club a fatal blow. He made 10 of 15 shots, 3 out of 5 from 3, 3 out of 4 from free throws, and scored 26 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

Los Angeles power forward Robert Holly has been suspended by Nowitzki throughout the series, and other forwards have performed poorly.

In order to strengthen the attack, Phil Jackson used medvedenko, the latter came off as a substitute for 17 minutes, 5-for-6, 3-out of 4 free throws, 13 points and 4 rebounds. The super level play is a highlight.

Kobe played the whole game, 15 of 31 shots, 5 of 11 from 3-pointer, 1 of 2 free throws, 36 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals. He's already playing beyond the three-point line, which doesn't help.

Shaquille O'Neal played 40 minutes, but did not throw a lot of shots, 8 of 14 shots, 4 of 7 free throws, 20 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks.

Only three of the team scored in double, and the team-mates did not give enough support to the OK team. Devon George was the worst, making 0 of 7 shots in 25 minutes and scoring 2 points and 1 rebounding from free throws. Now the management feels that he has lost the middle class contract with him.

Holly won't renew his contract after the end of the season. He made 3-out of 10 shots and 6-out-of-3-pointer shots. Four of his shots were empty shots, which made him disappointed.

Because of the butterfly effect caused by Guo Xu, Holly can't be called "Mr. key" in the previous two seasons. The Laker team didn't have the key ball to let him shoot. He counselled at the critical moment this year, which will certainly affect the evaluation he gets in the future.

The No. 1 position is the Laker's Achilles' heel. Fisher's playing method is reasonable and his shooting percentage is not low, but he can't drive the whole team like Guo Xu. OK combination can't rest at all. The Mavericks will blossom more and push the Lakers to the ground.

The Mavericks two guards play easier against veteran Brian Shaw and Pago. The former is old and has no speed and is easy to pass. The guest point guard only plays the role of hanging the ball for O'Neill, and the receiving and shooting is not accurate. The latter is an inexperienced substitute, and the Lakers have no one to use to get him out.

Lakers owner Jerry Buss felt his face was puffed up. Although Guo Xu left with a kind heart, he never targeted anyone, and repeatedly thanks the Lakers, he knew that he had done something stupid enough to regret his life.

Kobe's average is 30 + in the regular field, and he has played 32 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 1.3 steals in the first round of the playoffs. However, the fact that the Lakers have given up their dominant position is an irrecoverable fact.

Guo Xu has become one of the best players in the league. As long as the Lakers renew his contract, it is conservatively estimated that they will have a super star point guard in at least 10 years. After 10 years, Guo Xu is only 30 years old.

When Kobe can be replaced by Pau Gasol also led the team into the playoffs, is one of the Grizzlies twin towers, all-around power forward.

With them in, the Lakers sent Kobe and Shaquille O'Neal away, which is also a powerful Western power. The gap between old Buss and Kobe made the team miss the opportunity to establish a super Dynasty.

At the press conference after the game, the faces of all the Lakers were ugly.

Jackson didn't blame the players and said he was satisfied with their performance. He thought that the reason for the loss was that the Mavericks performed better, the offense was too strong to be defended, and the Mavericks had the strength to compete for the championship.

It's a fact. In Guo Xu's previous life, the Mavericks reached the Western Conference finals in 2003 and were eliminated by the Spurs 2-4. The reason why they lost was that Nowitzki was injured and missed the last three games, and their lineup was not complete. Even without the first core, the Mavericks still won the Spurs by 12 points in Game 5, and the difference between the two games they lost was not big.

As long as Nowitzki is healthy, it's hard to predict whether the two sides will win or lose. If the Mavericks beat the Spurs, they will be the champion.

The Suns became second in the regular season, causing the butterfly effect. If the Lakers were ranked fifth, they would have easily advanced against Timberwolves. Before forming the super lineup, the Timberwolves could not pass the first round.

In an interview with the Laker players, O'Neill denounced Kobe for being too independent at the press conference. "He will only trust his teammates in the first two quarters. As long as the teammates' performance is not good, he will not pass the ball again. Our ball right is very concentrated throughout the season. This is something that has never happened in the previous two seasons. How can we win the championship only by two people scoring?"

Reporter asked: "do you mean it's Kobe's responsibility to be eliminated?"

"He has shot nearly 10 times more than me, and his shooting rate is only 45%. Do you think he is not responsible?"

Kobe Bryant averaged 26.4 shots per game, while Shaquille O'Neal averaged 40 minutes per game, 27 points, 14.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.8 blocks, 55.8% shooting rate, only 18.2 shots and 11 free throws per game.There is no doubt that O'Neal's efficiency is much higher than that of Kobe, but Kobe can go to the low position one after another with 45% shooting rate to show his back singles, so that the people with high shooting rate can grab the rebounds in the front court. Who can believe that there is no contradiction between them?

In addition to the OK combination, only Fisher scored in double, averaging 11.7 points, 3 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game. Although his shooting percentage is very high, three points are more than 50%, but the role of limited, with half-time pass, Kobe is the real organizer of the Lakers.

Kobe often organizes for a while and then shoots

The reporter asked O'Neill: "which team do you like to win in the next series

"Of course it's the Suns, because the Suns have Jason to organize attacks. Even if there are a group of rookies in the team, as long as Jason is in, the team can become very united and play like the previous two seasons of the Lakers. I don't think the Mavericks are any big deal. If the Lakers play as they did in the last two years, we must win, but now it's meaningless to say that

Kobe is also very upset, and O'Neal tit for tat. "Shackel should do better in defense. Mavericks center rafrenz always takes cover and catches the ball. They do it every game. Nowitzki is also shooting outside. But shacker has been shrinking near the forbidden area to defend. His defense is not active. I think that's the main reason for losing."

The two men tore up at the press conference, and the infighting seriously damaged the interests of the team, and the Laker Dynasty collapsed in just one season.

Guo Xu watched the game at home and also watched the press conference.

He thinks O'Neal is right, because in the Laker defense system, "Zen master" allows O'Neal not to go out to defend the pick and roll, which was the case in the previous two seasons. When aopang moves near the forbidden area, the opponent can only shoot in the middle and long distance, but can't get into the basket. The periphery relies on the rotation to interfere with the shooting, so as to reduce the opponent's hit rate as much as possible.

The difference is that in the first two years, the Lakers can beat the opponents with better offense. After Guo Xu left, the attack of the Lakers became worse.

Kobe's current play can't be said to be wrong, so Coach Jackson didn't criticize anyone.

The combination of inside and outside is the king's way. Kobe Bryant is the only one who can hold the ball in the outside line of the Lakers. O'Neal is frequently wrapped in the low position. When he distributes the ball, who does he not throw?

In any case, as soon as the two publicly complain about each other, the OK group is not far away from the gang.
