Mondo Finance Updated on 2024-01-19

The second quarter of the Lakers vs. Rockets set the tone for victory, culminating in a signature victory that fits the Lakers' winning style!

Why?Why was the score 35-14 played in the second quarter?Timely adjustment of attack strategy!He only made one three-pointer in the second quarter, which was Rivers' hit, and nine three-pointers in the first quarter, which was also a new high in recent first quarters.

It is precisely because of the firmness and persistence of the attacking method, frequent attacks on the basket and the restricted area, that there was a 28-point penalty area score in the first half. The typical representative is Rivers, who made timely self-adjustments after shooting three consecutive three-pointers in the first quarter to no avail, and scored 15 points in the second quarter.

This achievement was not easy to come by, and the Rockets limited opponents to score fewer points in the restricted area, but they ranked first in the league!

There's one player who has to be highlighted, Christie!Because Davis insisted on defending and not leaving the box, this posed a severe test for the outside defense, Christie ran all over the court to chase VanVleet or Green, and there was a lot of help defense in the penalty area, and the first half was still the team's highest plus/minus plus-17. The buzzer-beating three-point shot at the end of the third quarter showed his self-confidence and maturity far beyond his yearsSeveral times he attacked the basket and played aggressively. Ham also put Christie on the finishing lineup and worked out Christie to play the No. 1 spot in garbage time, does that mean Christie will have more opportunities to work?

Hamm conducted two unexpected tests today, the first combination in particular being a rarity.

Due to the confusion of Wood coming off the bench and the dribbling error of ** illness, Ham tested the new lineup combination of one big and four small for the first time in the second half of the second quarter, the combination of Russell, Rivers, Christie, Prince and Davis, which worked well on both offensive and defensive ends and lasted for a long time.

In the third quarter, Ham came off the bench to put on the strongest defensive lineup combination, namely Rivers with Christie, Reddish, Van der Biao and Davis, which is a sign that the best of the four may be tested on many occasions in the future.

Today was also due to Russell's good performance, and Ham also rewarded him with the treatment of finishing the lineup. Judging from his active scramble for frontcourt rebounds, Van der Biao should be in good physical condition. NBA Spit Conference
