"Shaq O'Neal, domination mode. Ability value 103, offense 110, defense 89..."

As long as O'Neal works hard, he will still be one of the two best players in the league. The other is of course the best player now, Tim Duncan.

After playing for most of the quarter, Liu Mang finally understood that stimulating or not stimulating the contradictions of the OK team did not make much sense. The contradictions of the OK team were already irreconcilable. For them, provocation and differentiation tactics would make them lose their fight.

More violent.

O'Neal shamelessly crouched under the basket against the home buzzer, and his ferocious performance on both ends of the court beat the Hawks needlessly.

Boozer and Ratliff took turns being ravaged, and O'Neal scored 12 points in the first seven minutes, more points than the entire Hawks team.

Rahim was lucky that he was not an insider. This time the hooligan also miscalculated!

Boozer and Ratliff were so desperate. When Liu Mang told them about his differentiation strategy, they were a little happy that something was going to happen.

Yes, the matter has been resolved, but O'Neal, who is going all out, was released!

Fortunately, O'Neal's biggest problem now is his physical fitness. He made 8 attempts in the first quarter, made 6 of 8 shots and missed all 5 free throws. While he was destroying the Hawks inside, his physical fitness was also not good.

What a blessing, the Eagles finally didn't have to face O'Neal after the official timeout in the first quarter.

After Boozer and Ratliff returned to the bench, they looked at Liu Mang resentfully. It was different from what they had planned!

Liu Mang could only show an embarrassed smile.

Liu Mang felt a little sad, it was different from what he expected!

Every time you encounter an OK combination, there will always be problems with the strategy.

Liu Mang feels that OK group is poisonous!

He really wanted to tell Kobe and O'Neal that there is no chance of you two staying together and they are about to start a fight. Disband now!

But it seems that every time I try to spread out the OK group, it only makes them explode with strange strength when they compete within themselves. This pairing is a combination full of bugs. How can there be a pair that is already incompatible with each other?

, he could actually lead a group of old, weak, sick and disabled to win three consecutive championships?

This pairing is a BUG!

Liu Mang was very sure that Kobe and O'Neal had no chance to ease the conflict between them. They were just fighting each other. At least when they were still at their peak, it was impossible for their relationship to get better.

Opportunity.

Because both of them are too strong and their personalities are too domineering.

If there was even a small chance to turn around the relationship between the two, the Lakers would not have sent O'Neal away in 2004.

Liu Mang looked at O'Neal, who scored 12 points and 4 rebounds in a little more than half of the first quarter, and also caused three fouls on the Hawks' inside line, sitting on the bench with a boss attitude. Needless to say, he felt a little sorry for this pair.

If they wait patiently for two years together, wait until the defending season after three consecutive championships fails, and then the Lakers spend a year to re-recruit young and ordinary stars who are ready to fight and willing to win the championship together, instead of when the contradiction cannot be alleviated.

Forced to form a giant team to fight for the championship, it is really possible to dominate the NBA for a few more years.

However, although Liu Mang regrets it, this has nothing to do with him. The powerful Lakers are actually his more difficult opponent. He just wants to defeat the Lakers.

Being glared at by the solemn-looking Coach Kruger, Liu Mang knew that he had made a mistake this time. There was nothing he could do about it. Occasionally, there was a way to make strategic mistakes like this... Well, Liu Mang also understood that the little blacksmith was poisonous, and

This guy's strategy for getting involved always becomes weird.

A tough opponent!

Watching O'Neal leave the game, Kobe brought the second lineup on with a murderous look on his face. Liu Mang cheered up and brought on the lineup with Jason Terry, Raheem, Boozer, and Muhammad.

For the Lakers, Kobe brought Brian Shaw, Devin George, Samakie Walker, and Wang Zhizhi to the court.

The Lakers only have four players averaging double figures in points per game this year. Kobe, O'Neal, Fisher, and Wang Zhizhi are gone.

After the timeout, the Eagles have the ball.

9 to 17, trailing by 8 points at the start, and at the Lakers' home court, Liu Mang felt too much pressure!

Passing the ball to Jason Terry, Liu Mang received the ball passed back by Jason Terry and advanced to the frontcourt.

Liu Mang pushed forward, and with the second lineup, on paper, the Eagles had a clear advantage, but with Kobe on the other side... it was hard to say.

After Liu Mang advanced, he handed the ball to Rahim in the low post. It was Devin George who defended Rahim. Without O'Neal under the basket, Rahim finally had a chance to play in singles! Easily beat Germany.

Vin George scored two points.

11 to 17, with six points left.

Without O'Neal, the Eagles' offense became much easier. Raheem took one inside, which put a little pressure on the Lakers' inside. Liu Mang can use better offensive tactics next time he attacks.

Without O'Neal, the Lakers' interior defense is greatly reduced, but on the offensive end, Kobe is here...

Seeing Kobe advancing with murderous intent on his face, seeing Jason Terry running around with Brian Shaw, and Raheem chasing after Devin George, Liu Mang almost spit out his blood.

Do these two guys need to be so guarded?

Liu Mang looked at Kobe who came to the top of the arc and didn't care to complain. He came to the top of the arc to defend Kobe.

Liu Mang stood in front of Kobe and glanced at the side. Fortunately, the two guys were not made to forget their defensive strategy by the OK combination that went berserk today.

At this time, Brian Shaw was in the right corner, Jason Terry was very defensive, Wang Zhizhi used his height to attract Muhammad to the basket, Boozer squatted inside, and Samaki

-Walker's mid-range shooting has deteriorated greatly this year. Apart from eating cakes under the basket, it has no other big effect. The Lakers' two inside men squatted under the basket and stretched the weak side defense wide. On the strong side,

Devin George was running and found that no one was following him! He and Samaki Walker were both on the strong side on the left side of the basket, and Kobe was also on the left at a 45-degree angle.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The Hawks used zone defense! And they were constantly compressing the Lakers' space. Raheem and Boozer were on the left side of the three-second zone, together with Muhammad.

When flanked by Wang Zhizhi, the defense for Samakie Walker and Devin George was probably a casual shooting and Kobe passing strategy. The main focus was to guard against Wang Zhizhi, a seven-foot tall man, and Kobe, who was always ready to break through.

The defense is very targeted, but the Lakers have no good role players... or in other words, the role players who bully the Lakers are too old!

Kobe observed the Eagles' defense and immediately made a judgment. Devin George and Samaki Walker, these two people's ability to open up the space is too poor! The Eagles were completely squatting in the paint, with Wang Zhizhi and Fisher in the stage.

Er, Fox opens up the space. Whether he and O'Neal are playing outside singles or low singles, it is easy, but now this lineup...

Kobe tried to pass the ball to Devin George. As soon as Devin George got the ball, Raheem immediately jumped from the three-second zone to the mid-range. Devin George immediately returned the ball to Kobe...

Kobe had no choice but to rush past Liu Mang to the mid-range. Before Boozer arrived to help defend, he hit Liu Mang's hand that was about to go into his eyes.

Rub! Come in!

Liu Mang has defended very well, but Kobe can make the shot.

There is no problem with the defensive strategy. I and my teammates have defended very well, but if I can't hold off Kobe, I can still make a shot!

Liu Mang can only start from the offensive end! The strategy is not effective, and he was beaten by the poisonous OK. In this case, let's fight!

When the Eagles attacked, Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt and passed the ball to Jason Terry. He received the ball just after halftime. Jason Terry saw Brian Xiao who was defending him and immediately understood Liu Mang.

A reckless strategy and started to play Brian Shaw in singles.

It's too easy for Jason Terry to beat Brian Shaw. As a substitute, Jason Terry's purpose is much simpler. His idea is very simple, shoot when the ball is available, and open up space when the ball is not available.

This is a qualified sixth man plus a three-point shooter.

Jason Terry only used a change of direction to shake the nearly 38-year-old former main point guard of the US team. He rushed to the free throw line and made a pull-up jumper to easily score two points.

Looking back, Kobe continued to play in singles. If the boss was so accurate, why would he still be called the boss? This time, Kobe missed the turnaround jump shot after leaning against Liu Mang and forcing his way away. Muhammad protected the rebound.

The Eagles strike back!

Liu Mang rushed to the frontcourt and passed the ball to Jason Terry, who hit a chasing three-pointer!

He scored 5 points in a row, and Jason Terry chased the score to 16-19!

Three points left!

Ordinary coaches, especially coaches like Popovich, would definitely call a timeout at this time.

But Zen Master was different. He didn't call a timeout and let the players perform on their own.

Kobe received the free throw line and advanced to the frontcourt. Seeing that there was only a three-point difference, he began to calm down.

Waved for a pick-and-roll, Wang Zhizhi, the only center in the Lakers lineup who could attract the defender after the pick-and-roll, came out to pick-and-roll for Kobe. Wang Zhizhi blocked Liu Mang, and switched to Kobe with Boozer coming out.

Liu Mang had no choice but to let go of Wang Zhizhi, and teamed up with Boozer to double-team Kobe. Kobe passed the ball to Wang Zhizhi, and Wang Zhizhi shot a three-pointer from the top of the arc...

Also hit!

22 to 16, the point difference is back to more than 5 points!

Liu Mang saw that Kobe could perform well as long as he had a decent center, and he really felt that it was enough! This kind of person should not give him three points, just give him a death Parker!

It was the Eagles' offense again. Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt and was about to pass the ball to Jason Terry. He found that the man guarding him had changed and turned into Brian Xiao. Liu Mang was shocked and he was finally no longer a blacksmith.

Beware of him!

The blacksmith is worthy of being a blacksmith. His own iron can make his opponent even stronger, and then he uses his rich blacksmithing experience to defeat his opponent. It was abominable. Liu Mang only scored two points in the first quarter. Liu Mang waved his hand and let Jason Terry go.

In the bottom corner, Jason Terry pulled Kobe away, and Liu Mang singled out Brian Shaw!

Before Brian Shaw appeared on the Dream Team, he was the main point guard of the U.S. national team in three consecutive World Series in 1986, 1988, and 1990. His defense was quite good, but he just couldn't defend as he got older.

Liu Mang saw that Brian Xiao's small steps were really good, especially in defending three-pointers from the outside, so he chose the same method as Jason Terry, breaking through from the left!

Time is a butcher's knife. Brian Shaw, who was a standard 3D forward during the Lakers' three consecutive championships, was completely unable to keep up with Liu Mang's footsteps. Liu Mang was not good at left-side breakthroughs and even surpassed Brian Shaw.

It opened, and Kobe Bryant, who was guarding Jason Terry in the left corner, double-teamed him. Liu Mang's goal was achieved! He deliberately chose to break through on the left side in order to attract Kobe's defense! Liu Mang immediately passed the ball to Jason-

Terry, Jason Terry caught the ball and shot a three-pointer...hit it again!
