A successful jump ball means one more attack opportunity!

Oden took a full rest in the fourth quarter and his physical strength is still quite good.

On the opposite side, Adams was played when Ibaka was injured in the fourth quarter, and his physical strength is also good.

Adams is 2.11 meters tall, has a wingspan of 2.25 meters, and has a burly figure. This static talent is a natural beast for blocking and protecting the frame.

Oden, on the other hand, is 2.13 meters tall and has a wingspan of 2.24 meters. He has the same static talent as Adams, but his athletic ability is much better than Adams.

Adams worked hard on the jump ball this time, but Oden easily defeated Adams and gave the Lakers the first opportunity to attack in overtime.

McAway was ready to start immediately after receiving the ball.

Oden is more athletic than Adams.

Starting fast is good for the Lakers.

More importantly, the Lakers now have no reliable organizer!

Roy is injured.

Yao Ming off the court.

Of the five Lakers players on the court, Oden may have the best organizational skills.

As for McAway, he really couldn't believe Oden's organizational ability.

Therefore, McAway believes that he should play as fast as possible and not fall into position, otherwise the team will be very uncomfortable.

"McCaraway has sped up. He wants to sneak up on the Thunder. This is a very correct choice. Without a reliable organizer, the Lakers' only chance is to fight!"

"And this is also the most desperate, because the Thunder are the team with the strongest fighting ability in the entire league!"

Listening to the commentary on the TV, the Lakers fans in front of the TV were really numb.

Not to mention Lakers fans, even Cole, Popovich, and Phil Jackson are now desperate for Coach D and the Lakers.

The game has reached this level, and there is actually nothing left to play.

The Lakers have no chance at all.

"Huh?"

At this moment, Popovich was stunned for a moment.

On TV, Coach D was actually pressing down with both hands!

"Coach D asked McAway not to start too fast, not to sneak attack the Thunder, and to stay in position and fight!"

Seeing this, Popovich was shocked!

In fact, Popovich was surprised a lot in overtime.

Although he also knows that the Lakers' hope is slim.

But why didn’t Coach D use Jackson but Antetokounmpo?

Jackson and Reggie Miller are obviously better together than Reggie Miller and Antetokounmpo.

Even if you want height to protect the frame, you must go to Antetokounmpo.

Why not go to Covington and go to Jackson?

In fact, at this time there was a rookie Popovich who thought it was enough.

Both rookies are redundant.

And Coach D has three rookies!

On the court.

McAway, who wanted to make a sneak attack, stopped immediately after seeing Du Kang's instructions.

He didn't know why the coach fell into the trap, but he followed through 100 percent.

After McAway stopped running, the Thunder's defense quickly fell behind.

The Lakers also lost their fast break opportunity.

Looking at the Thunder's defense at this time, McAway was confused.

The Lakers don't have such a strong organizer now, and now Durant has completely given up on Antetokounmpo, shrinking inside, ready to help defend and flank Oden at any time, or to replace Reggie Miller.

This is even more uncomfortable.

The Lakers, who have no organizational skills to begin with, have to fight four against five in positional battles!

How to fight this?

McAway subconsciously looked to the sidelines.

Then he was shocked again!

The coach asked me to give the ball to...

McAway looked to the left and the coach asked me to give the ball to Giannis!

The Giannis organization!

McAway was shocked, but he still didn't hesitate. He handed the basketball in his hand to Antetokounmpo and ran away.

After Antetokounmpo received the pass, Oden, who was under the basket, also received instructions from Du Kang and came to the free throw line.

Antetokounmpo wants to pick and roll with Oden!

Antetokounmpo has no shooting ability.

So the Thunder can unleash it with impunity.

However, if Antetokounmpo attacks with the ball and plays a pick-and-roll with his teammates, the Thunder won't be able to let it go even if they want!

The key is, does Antetokounmpo have the ability to organize with the ball?

Therefore, everyone was shocked by Coach D's micro-management on the sidelines.

On the court, Antetokounmpo used Oden's screen at the free throw line to throw his defender and face Adams one-on-one.

Adams' speed and burst were not enough, and he did not expect that Antetokounmpo would directly break through. Antetokounmpo accelerated and broke through Adams.

Antetokounmpo showed excellent ball control ability in this round.

Pick-and-roll, breakthrough, all in one go, just like another Durant!

Three steps!

Bang!

Antetokounmpo got to the basket and completed the dunk!

102 to 100!

The Lakers actually took the lead to exceed the score!

Thunder fans who were cheering excitedly were stunned.

"Coach D's micro-management... is so powerful!"

"Can Antetokounmpo be so useful?"

"Why couldn't Nash, Hamm and Clifford use them before?!"

Not to mention the Thunder fans and commentators at the scene.

Even Hamm, Clifford and Nash on the sidelines are confused now.

When playing against the Spurs, Antetokounmpo showed very good perimeter defense capabilities, and they were already blushing.

Now, Antetokounmpo actually shows his ability to organize and control the ball!

And his organization and ball control abilities are definitely above the level!

Very confident, very determined!

"Even more determined than chasing dreams!"

Cole was shocked in front of the TV.

They are all players who are not very good at shooting.

Chasing Dreams is a little better at shooting.

Sometimes you still hesitate when pursuing your dreams.

But Antetokounmpo is really determined!

"A player who didn't know anything in the Lakers before, but in the hands of Coach D, he seemed to know everything!"

The gap between coaches is sometimes reflected in details like this.

His teacher, the former number one head coach in the league, Popovich, is sought after and considered to be above Mayer, isn't it because he can use some not so outstanding players to be very good?

In terms of ability in this area, Coach D is stronger, much stronger!

Antetokounmpo, this is a rookie!
