The strategy determined by the Kings coach is to let other players help Bond in interior defense in the second half.
But he only solved the defensive and offensive aspects, he did not solve the offensive problem.
Wang Yi said to the head coach:
"Coach, this only solves the defensive problem, what about the offensive end?"
Other players also looked at head coach D'Antoni.
D'Antoni also looked embarrassed when he heard this.
He is almost certain that the Kings' shooting percentage will drop in the second half.
When the Kings' shooting percentage drops, how to solve this offensive problem?
There are a few things he is thinking of right now, one is Wang Yi's mid-range shot;
One is Bond’s intimidation on the inside;
Another one is Danny's three-pointer.
As long as Wang Yi's mid-range shot is open, he will attract a lot of defense, and then both the inside and outside will have a chance.
However, D'Antoni did not say it immediately because he knew that since Wang Yi asked this, he must have already had a solution in his mind, and it was better than the three options he thought of.
So he asked Wang Yi: "Stop being so pretentious and tell me your solution."
At this time, Wang Yi was wearing a bandage on his ankle and said to the coach:
"My method is very simple, that is, shoot three-pointers, and everyone should shoot three-pointers."
The head coach tilted his head: "Are you sure?"
All the other players were a little surprised as well.
They are almost certain that the Kings' shooting percentage will definitely drop in the second half. In this case, if they still let the Kings shoot three-pointers, isn't this asking for death?
But Tours knew that the boss would not take the target lightly.
He replied: "Boss, I listen to you."
But others were waiting for Wang Yi to give them an explanation.
But what Wang Yi said after he opened his mouth was not an explanation.
"In short, in the second half, everyone should not crowd inside and go outside the three-point line. As long as I pass the ball to you, you will take three-pointers."
Rose remembered the strange feeling when Wang Yi passed the ball to him.
Although I don’t know why I feel that way, and there seems to be some metaphysical meaning in it, but since Wang Yi said it, I must be sure.
So he nodded: "Okay, let's try it."
Danny naturally didn't hesitate. He always had almost blind trust in Wang Yi: "I listen to the boss."
Finally everyone took a stand except Bond.
He will not listen to Wang Yi.
Didn't you ask me to go beyond the three-point line?
I still have to be in the restricted area.
Soon, the second half of the game began, and players from both sides continued to take the field.
The Lakers attack in the first round.
Directly by King Arthur trying to break through.
Their purpose is clear: to defeat Bond from the inside.
As long as Bond commits another foul, he will have to sit on the bench before the 4th quarter.
However, if Wang Arthur wants to penetrate the inside, he must first get past Wang Yi and Danny.
He felt very uncomfortable being double-teamed tonight. When he saw Wang Yi and Danny double-teaming him again, he couldn't help but cursed fiercely:
"If you're a man, just fight me one-on-one. What's the point of being double-teamed?"
"If you feel like it, come with me one-on-one - but I guess, you don't have the guts at all."
Wang Yi doesn’t want to fall for his tricks.
You think I'm stupid.
Since I can double team, why do I have to fight you one on one??
Moreover, Wang Yi in turn provoked Arthur Wang:
"Look at which superstar in the NBA has never been bandaged, and which superstar has never broken through a double team. If you want to be a superstar, you must first break through double teams. If you can't even break through double teams, how dare you call yourself a superstar?"
Arthur Wang originally wanted to pass the ball when he couldn't see through the double team, but now that he heard what Wang Yi said, he no longer thought about passing the ball.
He dribbled the ball and took two steps back, intending to pass the two men.
But if one person wants to pass two people on the outside, that's not just talk.
Generally speaking, when Arthur Wang encounters an opponent's double-team during the regular season, he usually either passes the ball or uses his body to force his way out of the double-team.
But now Wang Yi is very weird on the Kings team.
As long as he wants to forcefully use his body to open the ball, Wang Yi will fall to the ground, causing him an offensive foul.
Therefore, Arthur Wang had no choice but to choose the three-point jumper that he was least good at from outside the three-point line.
Basketball is a little weird.
Coach Darwin on the sidelines couldn’t help but get angry:
"Mi Gao, what are you doing? Why don't you pass the ball?"
Arthur frowned.
Just as he was about to reply, Wang Yi said directly to Arthur:
"If you are a real man, don't pass the ball. You even work so hard to break a double team. What kind of real man are you?"
Michael Arthur could not hold back after hearing this.
You have to keep doing it in the next round.
At this time, when he came to the Kings' frontcourt, Wang Yi continued to control the ball.
He was standing in the logo area and dribbling the ball slowly.
The Lakers knew that Danny was capable of three-point shooting, so they closely guarded Danny.
The defense against Rose is also relatively strict.
But when Tours ran outside the three-point line, they paid little attention to Tours.
After all, a blue-collar player like Tours is lucky to shoot one three-pointer in a game. How could he shoot three-pointers continuously?
So Wang Yi easily passed the ball to Tours.
The moment Tours caught the ball, he felt that the ball felt really good, so he turned around and shot a three-pointer without any defender.
The basketball moves like lightning, like a galloping horse, turning directly towards the basket.
Swish——
The net flutters and the basketball hits the ball hollow.
Everyone in the entire Crypto Forum Center Arena was dumbfounded.
"What?!"
"Holyshit!"
"Brother, you are just a blue-collar insider. Why don't you do your job well? Why don't you shoot three-pointers?"
All the Lakers players were also stunned.
Look at Turs like you're a monster.
How can any blue-collar inside player play like this?
Lakers coach Darwin looked at Tours as if he had seen a ghost: "Damn! This guy is so abnormal."
O'Neal on the sidelines also held his head:
"Oh, Tours! Tours tonight is really eye-opening. He made 2 of 2 3-pointers. This guy is so crazy!"
Although the Kings players were also surprised, what surprised them was not that Tours hit a three-pointer, but that as Wang Yi said, as long as he received his pass from outside the three-point line, he could shoot a three-pointer.
Wang Yi spread his hands to the other team members, meaning, look, it’s like this.
This also gives those players more confidence.
However, at the same time, although the Lakers coach was a little surprised, he didn't pay much attention after being surprised.
After all, it’s just a three-pointer.
Who doesn’t eat turkey on Thanksgiving?
Which player hasn't had a good game?
Tours' touch was indeed good tonight, but it's impossible for every Kings player to have such a touch tonight.
And it's already the second half, and it's time for the Kings players' touch to decline.
