1444. Tricky angle
Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals between the Lakers and Nuggets started at 7pm on May 20, 2007, Los Angeles time.
Western Conference Finals...
The Nuggets' advance to the Western Conference Finals was indeed unexpected.
Although the Nuggets are fourth in the Western Conference, the Western Conference is better than the Nuggets. In theory, there are four teams, the Lakers, Horses, Cows, and the Suns. Who knew that two teams were killed by the Lakers, and a pair committed suicide.
The Mavericks lost to the Warriors without any resistance, but if they had played the SuperSonics or Clippers, they might have won. The Warriors were able to defeat the Mavericks, mostly because of Nelson's tactical restraint.
As a result, the Nuggets entered the Western Conference Finals.
Because of this, the Nuggets are not expected to have a chance to defeat the Lakers. I just say that Iverson's battle with Kobe is very interesting.
This is the second time the two have met in the playoffs, and Iverson's team was completely unfavorable.
And Iverson really broke out again in this game!
It's not an explosion of scoring like in the 2001 Finals, but an explosion of assists!
Iverson scored 15 points and 16 assists in a single game, 8 of which were directly given to Anthony, helping Anthony hit a magical shooting rate of 14 of 20, helping Anthony to score 70% in 40 minutes of playing time.
Scored 41 points with a shooting percentage!
To be honest, Iverson made more than 14 passes to help Anthony score. Anthony only made 1 of 3 three-pointers in the game, which means that 12 points were scored from free throws. A total of 12 of 14 free throws, while Anthony made 12 of 14 free throws.
Three times he went to the free throw line because Iverson passed the ball to him and he directly caused a foul.
That is to say, 11 of Anthony's scores were direct passes from Iverson.
Iverson, who changed his style of play, reached a perfect state after one season and two rounds of playoffs.
At the same time, the Nuggets, who had 22 assists as a team, had 16 assists from Iverson. The Nuggets scored 107 points in a single game under the Lakers' solid defense. Iverson's passes
Very important!
but……
The Lakers are no longer the invincible Lakers team in the playoffs before meeting the 76ers in the 2001 Finals. They are now losers. They have lost two Finals in the past three years. When they met Iverson, who once brought them
When facing an endlessly terrifying opponent, he played very focused and maintained a solid defense throughout the game, preventing the Nuggets from showing off their track-and-field style of play.
Iverson's 16 assists in a single game proves that the Nuggets are using an unconventional style of play. Their regular style of play is that Iverson gets eight or nine assists, and everyone else also has assists, and they quickly come out after defense.
The ball was thrown and the whole team started running to counterattack.
In this game, they only had 22 assists, which meant they had to rely on Iverson's positional organization to score.
The Lakers strangled the Nuggets' regular play style. Although Iverson played the best offensive performance in the playoffs of his career, the Lakers' defense was successful. Iverson organized the offense very well.
Under such circumstances, the Nuggets did not play their best counterattack. With Iverson's 16 assists in a single game, the Nuggets only scored 107 points.
Liu Mang’s Facebook is popular!
Kobe Bryant, who did not know how to use electronic products, squeezed next to Yao Ming during physical therapy and ice application. He kept urging Yao Ming, who was having a hard time using computers, to read news on the Internet. As a result, he saw various forwarded news about Liu Mang's viral Facebook post.
and posts…
Kobe didn't think anything of it at first. Liu Mang would get angry no matter what he did. He was already used to it.
Of course, they would also be curious. After Kobe curiously urged Yao Ming to click on it, Kobe regretted it...
"Asshole, despicable villain, this clown..." Kobe angrily kicked over the ice bucket and cursed.
"..." Yao Ming discovered that this educated high school student... had such a strange style of swearing...
