Chapter 1,071 Attack of Phil Jackson!
Targeted strategy!
After the game between the Lakers and SuperSonics started, Kobe continued to play Yes in isolation with the support of the running and gun triangle offense.
Nelson can be sure that this was definitely not Kobe's own decision in this game.
This is certainly the overall strategy for Phil Jackson and the Lakers.
Looking at Ye Si on the court who would return it no matter what after being eaten by Kobe, Old Nelson's face was calm, but his brows were furrowed.
Of course he wouldn't ask Yes to care about the team's victory or defeat. He is not such a person.
When had old Nelson ever been so cowardly? !
He likes to see Yes like this very much. If someone fucks you, you have to do it back!
He doesn't think there's anything wrong with what Yes is doing on the court.
Besides, Yes also has such ability.
Although support is support, there is also need to worry.
He must also admit that the targeted strategy of the Lakers and Phil Jackson Kobe against Yes is indeed quite lethal.
Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant, two psychological masters, had predicted that Yes would not give in. Given Yes's current status in the NBA, Yes's persistence, and Yes's domineering nature, how could he be so cowardly in the face of a challenge like Kobe's?
Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant planned to kill Yes!
Look at this game in the first quarter, Yes and Artest were fighting like that.
How amazing will the consumption of Yes be in this game?
The Lakers' targeting of Yes is a conspiracy!
There is a conspiracy that cannot be avoided!
In fact, Nelson has thought about his domineering style of play this season, in which Yes will fight back as long as the opponent dares to play Yes, that he will be exploited by others.
But basically I just think about it a little bit, and basically I don’t really care.
Because in this world, there are very few teams and players who can address this problem!
To use this method to target Yes, first of all, you must have a strong ability to defeat Yes in singles!
Yes's defense is anything but paper.
Dare I ask how many players in the entire NBA have the offensive ability of Kobe McGrady?
Secondly, after you provoke Yes, you must also have the defensive ability to consume Yes.
Why can't the Grizzlies in the regular season deal with Yes's style of play?
Because the Grizzlies can't find a defensive player like Artest.
Battier, McGrady and Carter, none of them are defensive players like Artest.
Therefore, even though Old Neil had guessed that someone might make a fuss about Ye Si's style of play, he didn't pay too much attention to it.
Because in his opinion, there is no team that meets the problem of Yes' style of play. Even the Lakers, he does not think that the Lakers have this ability.
Kobe's offense is not that stable.
Indeed, from a long-term perspective, from the perspective of an entire series, Kobe's offensive stability is indeed unable to support this style of play for a series.
Therefore, the Lakers really do not have the ability to grasp this problem of Yes to win a series.
However, you can't win a series, but you can win one game or two games.
Kobe Bryant is in good offensive condition, and if he plays the SuperSonics in this way, the probability of the SuperSonics losing will be very high.
In fact, maybe the Lakers Kobe Bryant and Phil Jackson didn't even think about defeating the SuperSonics in this series at the beginning. The biggest goal of the Lakers, Phil Jackson and Kobe in this series is to disrupt the situation!
Disrupt the Seattle SuperSonics' current undefeated victory!
If the SuperSonics' good situation is disrupted and the team's mentality has problems, Yes will be consumed a lot in two games, injuries or conditions will also cause problems. This is the Lakers' series. Chance to win!
That's right, this is the thinking of Phil Jackson and the Lakers in this series. They didn't want to win the series from the beginning.
Let’s start with one game at a time.
The posture is very low!
Nelson, who is the most successful head coach in the NBA like Phil Jackson, can actually lower his profile so low.
However, if he were Phil Jackson, he would also use such a low profile to fight against the Sonics.
It seems difficult for the Lakers to achieve these conditions to win the series.
Once again, the mentality of the Seattle SuperSonics players is broken, and again there is a problem with Yes's body or condition.
But in fact, the probability of such a situation is not as low as imagined.
If Yes really loses this game against Kobe, it will be a huge blow to the Sonics' morale!
It was really shocking to lose the mid-range sniper battle between the bosses, especially since Yes used to have an image of being one-on-one invincible in front of his teammates.
Therefore, whether it is for the sake of face or dignity, Yes will continue to persist in this duel until the last drop of his energy is exhausted.
In this case, the possibility of Yes's body getting injured will also greatly increase. After all, no matter how strong Yes is, he is still a human being. If he is not cheating, he cannot see whether he is about to be injured. Take a rest before getting injured. Or stop.
Therefore, although the Seattle SuperSonics have always been the leading side on the court, Nelson saw a very big crisis.
The tactics and strategies of Phil Jackson and the Lakers in this series really showed the ability of the psychological master to the fullest.
Old Nelson looked to Phil Jackson on the side.
Phil Jackson also seemed to notice Old Nelson's gaze. After the two looked at each other, Phil Jackson nodded politely and smiled.
The leading team on the court now is the Seattle SuperSonics. In addition, Yes has played extremely well every time he counterattacked Kobe's offense, so the atmosphere in the entire arena has been incredibly heated.
"It's amazing. After the game started, every attack from Kobe was answered by Yes!"
"This is the most incredible offensive matchup I've ever seen!"
"Kobe's offense in this game was incredible, and Yes's response in this game was even more incredible!"
Barkley was going crazy, and Kenny Smith next to him could no longer suppress his increasingly surging heart.
There is no way, this game was incredible!
It's really hard to imagine that a player can respond to another player like this!
After the game started, the amount of information in the game was really too much!
The Lakers' run-and-gun triangle offense is powerful, Kobe's offense is powerful, and of course the most powerful thing is Yes's dominance and ability!
Even someone like him who doesn't have a very good attitude towards Yes is already convinced by Yes in this game at this time, not to mention other people.
So with the atmosphere at the scene so exciting and enthusiastic, not many people would notice that after the game started, the Sonics, which had been leading, had actually fallen into the trap set by Phil Jackson and the Lakers.
Even many viewers at the scene felt that Nelson's request for a timeout was simply inappropriate and disrupted their enjoyment of the performances of Kobe and Yes.
"Mr. Nelson requested a timeout again!"
Not to mention the ordinary fans and spectators around the stadium, even Duncan felt a little regretful at this time.
This is already the third timeout Nelson requested in the first quarter.
Nelson is not a coach like Popovich who likes to call timeouts.
He rarely interrupts the game by calling timeouts for various reasons.
So much so that Duncan felt a little unfamiliar when he saw Nelson in the first quarter of the game.
"Is Mr. Nelson trying to give Yes a rest? But even though Yes is sweating profusely now, I can feel that yes's physical strength is not a problem yet. Even if a timeout is used to increase rest time for Yes, the timeout should be reserved for the end. Better?"
"I actually used up all three timeouts in the first quarter..."
Naturally, Duncan doesn't think his coaching ability is better than Popovich's teacher, Nelson. He just doesn't understand.
"It's very simple. Mr. Nelson is still looking for a way to crack the Lakers' strategy. The last time he requested a timeout was to take Yes away from Kobe. As long as Yes doesn't defend Kobe after this game, then Kobe will not be able to score. , Yes does not need to limit his methods, and does not have to use the offensive methods that others know when attacking. The offense does not have to be so tiring, and the defense does not guard Kobe. Yes can also save energy. This is A good strategy, but Mr. Nelson ultimately failed."
"Failed?"
"Yes, there is no way for Yes to leave Kobe, unless the Sonics give up their defensive system and don't care about defense at all in order to prevent Yes from defending Kobe."
Under Duncan's gaze, Popovich looked full of admiration.
"Awesome, Phil Jackson's strategy this time is quite powerful!"
"Moreover, the run-and-gun triangle offense created by Phil Jackson and D'Antoni this time is really strong."
This tactical system simply dictates where to hit!
As long as the opponent doesn't give up defense, the Lakers can use this new triangle offensive system to let Kobe beat any opponent's defensive player!
Nash advances too fast!
Every Lakers player on the court could fill the Pippen role!
This means that Kobe can target all defensive players on the court.
The difference is that it only takes 7 seconds to hit the opposing shooting guard, but it may take more time to hit the misplaced small forward, point guard, or power forward center, like nine or ten seconds.
Therefore, no matter where Nelson puts Yes, he can't avoid Kobe.
Unless you don't care about the team's tactical system, what does it mean to not care about the team's tactical system?
That is, Kobe has reached that position. You can obviously help defend Kobe, but you are there with your hands on your hips, unable to pass, and watching Kobe open for an open shot.
Is there such a player in the world?
Of course there is.
But it will definitely not include Yes.
If Yes is really such a shameless player, Phil Jackson's targeting methods will not be effective.
It's because Yes is too shameless and shameless. After all, he is recognized as the number one player in NBA history. The position of number one player is much harder and more stressful than the number one position in history. That's why he was Phil Jackson was targeted like this.
However, even so, Phil Jackson was able to achieve this step, leaving his teacher Old Nelson with nothing to do to such an extent, which still amazed him.
"I'm afraid Phil Jackson was already plotting against Mr. Nelson and Yes when he invited D'Antoni!"
Popovich couldn't help but think, this man has such a dark heart!
No wonder I was always outnumbered in the beginning.
The psychological master is indeed a psychological master!
Popovich is now full of praise for his old rival Phil Jackson.
Seeing Duncan on the side, he felt a little confused.
In fact, at this time, whether on the scene or in front of the TV, many coaching masters, whether from the NBA or the NCAA, looked at Phil Jackson with the same eyes as Popovich, with surprise, admiration, and disbelief.
Of course, there are also surprises.
For example, Master Romar is sitting here among many NCAA masters.
Master Romar's face is very calm now. He is even as immersed in the wonderful performance of Yes and the SuperSonics' lead in the game as the SuperSonics fans next to him. He looks confused as if he can't see Phil in the game at all. The subtleties of Jackson and Nelson's confrontation.
Seeing Romar who was very 'fan' around him at this time, Coach K had an ugly expression on his face.
Of course, he would not think that a coach of Master Romar's level would not be able to see the deepest crisis that the Sonics are facing in this series.
He must have noticed it!
But why was he completely indifferent like those ignorant fans at the scene?
Could it be that Master Romar has seen something further than us, a level that we cannot see?
Coach K exchanged glances with Jim Boeheim, John Calipari and other super coaches.
"Master Romar, I must have a longer-term view than we do!"
"Master Romar is definitely not like the fans. He only saw the first floor. We saw the third or fourth floor, and Coach K definitely saw the fifth or even sixth floor!"
"In other words, in the fifth or sixth floor, Yes and the Sonics are not in any danger? Don't you have to worry about anything?"
"How can this be!"
Coach K and the NCAA super coaches around him exchanged looks with expressions of disbelief.
How could the Supersonics not have any crises!
Is it a lie that Nelson kept asking for timeouts in the first quarter and was constantly pushed back by Phil Jackson?
Of course it can’t be fake!
But why would Master Romar be as indifferent as those ignorant fans at the scene?
Yes is his favorite disciple!
So why? !
The fans in the stands were cheering, but the famous NCAA coaches who were invited were caught in the vortex of thinking too much.
As for the court, in front of the SuperSonics bench, Nelson was racking his brains to think of a way to break the game.
It is really difficult to solve Phil Jackson's conspiracy without damaging the morale of the players or spreading negative energy.
Old Nelson has a headache now, but Ye Si, who is the source of his headache, doesn't seem to care at all at this time, as if he doesn't feel the crisis at all.
even……
"Mr. Nelson, don't worry, we can stay ahead in this game."
"..."
Seeing Old Nelson like this, Ye Si really couldn't bear it.
