Chapter 158
Today's Lakers roster is almost back to tradition.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is back in the starting centre-forward position.
Kurt Rambis plays as the team's starting power forward.
James Worthy occupies the small forward position, with Zhou Chen and Michael Cooper in the backfield.
Looking at the lineup of the Lakers, Zhou Chen was a little stunned, and the fans at the home of Los Angeles also broke out into cheers.
This scene is very familiar and moving.
The four teammates on the court are all Lakers teammates when he first entered the NBA.
It's just that the only thing missing is Magic-Johnson.
Now he is fighting the disease.
Zhou Chen knew that the career of a magician would not end there.
When people's misconceptions and prejudices about AIDS slowly disappear, magicians will return to the arena.
He is only 27 years old this year, and in another year, two years, three years... He is still in the prime of an athlete.
In the post-Magic era, Zhou Chen became the leader of this Lakers team.
This season, Zhou Chen's performance has been questioned, and the team has always been on the cusp.
It seems that only by winning the championship can all doubts about Zhou Chen from the outside world be eliminated.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chen strengthened the belief in his heart, took a sip of spirits, and walked onto the field.
The game started and the Celtics got the opening ball!
The ball rotated quickly and came to Larry Bird!
Zhou Chen directly countered him!
"Boy, stop struggling, you can't win us!"
"Hurry home and hold your good little girlfriend and cry bitterly!"
Bird dribbled the ball at a slow pace, his mouth still chattering.
This was his usual method, and Zhou Chen was already accustomed to it.
Players with poor psychological quality will be caught by him to flaws in defense and then strike.
Zhou Chen was already immune to Byrd's trash talk, and he was steady and steady, facing Byrd's attack step by step, not giving an inch.
"I can only say that you are a guy who remembers to eat and not to beat."
Zhou Chen shouted angrily and directly destroyed Byrd's dribbling out of bounds.
His defense is too pressing, and his physical fitness is completely several levels above Bird's.
In desperation, when the Celtics attacked again, Bird could only hand the ball to McHale on the inside.
He had to find a way to avoid Zhou Chen's defense, and he was 30 years old this year, no longer young.
He had already acquiesced in his heart that Zhou Chen's personal ability was above him, but Bird was a knowledgeable person.
The person who knows the time is Junjie, and as long as the team can win, he will stop at nothing and at any cost.
McHale faced the defense of Rambis, maneuvered with ease, and played his feet on the inside, and hit a steady shot to give the Celtics a head start!
Zhou Chen dribbled quickly to the half!
Come to the free throw line on the right and signal your teammates to pull away!
Several other Lakers players sank to the downline position, leaving plenty of space for Zhou Chen to play singles!
This is the most common tactic used by the Lakers in this season's playoffs, in addition to the elevator door.
Isolated singles tactics.
In short, it is to create all opportunities to "isolate" Zhou Chen and let Zhou Chen get enough singles space in the low position!
When the opponent comes to target Zhou Chen, the rest of the Lakers can get the opportunity to shoot from the open position.
This tactic works well most of the time.
Unless one day, the other players of the Lakers collectively play abnormally, so that Zhou Chen cannot be supported.
Facing Dennis Johnson's defense, Zhou Chen singled with his back in the low position, a quick shake, and directly turned around for a jumper!
Textbook shooting posture!
Dennis Johnson jumped up and blocked, but it was out of reach!
"Ugh"!
Zhou Chen equalized the score for the Lakers!
As the game progressed, the defensive intensity of both sides gradually increased.
The Bostonians, who have killed the Lakers at home and away, want to blow up and take three cities in a row to completely kill the Lakers.
But the Lakers are also united today, facing a tough enemy, without flinching at all!
Abdul-Jabbar's old tree blossomed, and he hit a series of hooks on the inside to stabilize the situation for the Lakers!
At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers played a wave of 9-3 mini-climax!
"Mr. Big Scene" James Worthy was also unrelenting, and hit a whistle shot towards the end of the first quarter!
Helped the Lakers lead by 3 points 29-26!
