In 13th, November, Lakers welcomed its rival Suns at its home court in Los Angeles. After four days` rest, the defending champion was fully fueled up and achieved a six-streak-win by beating Suns with 121 to 102 and topped the western conference. Kobe Bryant scored 29 points, return Andrew bynum scored 26 points and 15 rebounds. Steve Nash had 13 points.What is Stylish Now? Normally cheap bags !
In the game, key point of scoring of Lakers lies in their defense, Sun scored 102 points this time which is only second low. Their affending was the worst in this season. The 36.5% shot rate of the whole team explained all. In fact when the third section was over, the point was just 71 of Suns. The replacement saved their face in the garbage time of Scene IV, otherwise it was definitely to create a new low of the new season. It was a fact that the Suns was suffering from the schedule, but the large gap had been not merely to do with the physical excuses.
In the new season the Suns let people feel something different in a period of time, they returned to Nash firmly for run and gun. they brought shock to the league with the dedicatedly attack. After they beat the pride Kelts in guest play, people started to shout that the phoniex that can fly over the whole allien was regenerated. They got the same top place with green shirt team in the allien. But in fact, the former strong team style of the Suns is nothing but illusion, this team was too much reliance on the fast attack, when the pace slowed down the efficiency would be low, while the defense even worse than before. The two fatal weak points of the Suns had been unmasked by the Lakers.
Only limit the Sun as long as they run and offensive, forcing them off the offensive positions, it means pulled the tiger’s teeth. Of course that’s easy to do, the lakers would be difficult to accomplish the game today, that they had very pre-match preparation (4 days rest no waste), the team will deploy completely at the press is dead. First of all, the Lakers offense in a greater emphasis than ever near the basket, the team as long as the have the opportunity to put the ball to Andre – Bynum, who finished second only to Kobe Bryant shot 18 times.
Kobe also gave up specializing in external and inner lane and two-thirds of 22 shots was completed in the restricted area. This will not only be able to guarantee the success rate, but also reduce the rate of competition. The inside defending won’t make the ball far away even without gettingin. Suns couldn’t get the fast break by the side player directly. Then Lakers disterbed the backyard backboard ball of Suns. People generally think only active back defending can restrict the fast affending. It doesn’t like this. The center like Byrum can’t follow the fast break steps of Suns with active defending..
So Lakers run counter against it. In offence, big guys fought positively for rebounds, even if they failed to get rebounds in offence, at least they stalled the Suns players. In doing so, they won the time to retreat by increasing rival`s time in getting rebound. Today, the Sun rebounding won the Lakers for five, but their rebounding uniform distribution of anomalies, which is also an objective performance of the Lakers to actively interference. Suns couldn’t control the back yard backboard well easily by only one or two inside player. The players who supposed to fast break had to share the burden. The third point is the restriction to Nash, the Lakers used more active strategy such as steel, force and interfere. The person who defense Nash will choose directly toward to Nash when there are covers rather than replace the others or back up.
