Chapter 425(1/2)
425. Where is I such a big ball?
Liu Xiu took Kobe to run happily, and Randolph played Odom alone in the low post, attracting Wang Zhizhi to attack.
Wang Zhizhi did a very good job of attacking. While using his height to cover Randolph's shooting space, he also cut off Randolph's route to pass Kwame Brown at the basket.
Randolph did not make a strong shot and passed the ball to Rahim who was referring to the right side of the free throw line. Rahim immediately passed the ball...
Liu Xiu used Kwame Brown to block Kobe's left sideline with Kwame Brown, quickly crossing two steps to open the distance, and made a jump shot from the middle distance on the left side of the three-second area!
Kobe shook his head and ran to the frontcourt.
The TV commentator analyzed that Kobe shook his head, which was dissatisfied with the No. 6 jersey on the left side of the free throw line...what was the No. 9 jersey, which was wearing No. 9 jersey with her hands on her waist and she couldn't bear to move her feet to make up for her defense.
But Kobe actually got used to Atkins's situation.
The reason why Kobe put his hips on his head was Liu Xiu's progress through cover!
Thinking of the moment when Liu Xiu suddenly slowed down when he was running hard but accelerated suddenly before using cover, Kobe ran through his heart.
During the All-Star Game, Liu Xiu’s pace of using cover was not so good, and he made too fast!
This is not a simple emergency stop and start. A defender like Kobe, who simply stops and starts quickly, just predicts in advance to make corresponding defensive actions. This is a very excellent skill of using the cover without the ball. The lower limit is extremely low and the upper limit can be quite high.
Anyway, this round made Kobe want to hit Nash. He swears that if he can make it to the playoffs this season, he will definitely have to play with the Suns!
The offense and defense were converted, the Lakers attacked, Atkins advanced to the frontcourt, Kobe yelled to ask for the ball, Atkins was so scared that he passed by quickly.
Liu Xiu, who was guarding Atkins, saw this scene and remembered the scene where Yao Ming shouted at Sula MMP and scared Sula to pass the ball quickly.
Atkins, who has become a singles, has a career of 37% three-point shooting percentage, and averages 1.7 three-pointers per game. There is no difference between giving open shots and giving points. Liu Xiu is standing in front of Atkins, and the matter of defending Kobe is handed over to Payton. Before the game begins, Payton said--"Bobby is handed over to me!"
Although he felt that Payton might be beaten, Liu Xiu still chose to give trust to his teammates, after all, he was the best defensive player in the past.
It's just that defending Atkins is boring. This guy's attack seems to have accidentally turned his jersey number. He stood aside without the ball and didn't move his feet... Liu Xiu didn't like to have nothing to do when he defended. Atkins didn't move, so he took the initiative to press on.
After attracting the other party's attention, he asked, "Are you so timid, are you so afraid of Kobe?"
Atkins:?
"You just don't have confidence in yourself? Do you think Kobe's success rate against Payton is higher than that of me?"
Atkins:???
Atkins reacted and wanted to retaliate, so Liu Xiu ran back to the inside.
Kobe beat Payton and crushed into the inside. Facing Payton and Kwame Brown, he hit one and two, and put up a layup with a tie-in...
Liu Xiu ran into the inside to see if there was any defensive rebound. He just picked up the ball that fell from the basket and left the baseline speechlessly and sent it to Payton.
Seeing Payton's confident look of "I want to prevent Kobe from killing him", Liu Xiu thought that the veteran must have some secret tricks, but in the blink of an eye, he saw Payton being beaten by Kobe.
During the offense and defense transition, Payton advanced to the frontcourt, Liu Xiu's running position and Randolph asked the ball to be put on the line at a low post. Payton came by himself, singled Atkins, and made a jump shot from the free throw line!
Payton comes first?
It doesn't matter who comes!
The offense and defense were converted, Kobe reached out to Atkins and the ball came!
Come on the ball!
Come quickly... Where is the ball?
"Clang"
A familiar voice came into Kobe's ears, but the ball was not in his hand. Why did the ironclad sound come?
Turning around, he saw that it was true! Atkins's movements after the shooting were not completely closed.
Before there was time to roar, Kobe quickly chased and Liu Xiu took a quick attack!
Liu Xiu quickly received a long pass from Rahim, and he had a bad chance of defending against Kobe's active and decisive defense.
The weight of 104 kg is still maintaining its top speed!
The promised talent is insufficient, and the body is disabled and the ambition is strong, so it depends entirely on hard work?
But his warden has teammates!
Liu Xiu suddenly reached the bottom line, stopped quickly, turned around, and passed the ball... Randolph took the ball and leaned against Caron Butler to make a layup.
Kobe groaned again. Butler had a very good relationship with him and was also the most stable teammate in the offense. However, this defense is not about not working hard, and his physical fitness is not bad, but the defensive effect is equal to Nash, and the defense is lost.
The Lakers' defense is not good this season, so Kobe only hums a few words, offense is their strength.
In their lineup, everyone can throw three points! Butler and Wang Zhizhi's three-point shooting percentage is more than 40%!
When the Lakers attacked, Atkins calmed down a little after hitting the ball. When he ran back to receive the serve, Kobe was glaring at him, a little scared.
But as soon as Atkins advanced to the three-point line, he heard the warden opposite him say in a sincere tone: "Transfer to Kobe, you really can't do it."
Atkins is so overwhelming!
Kobe, who ignored the "ball coming" posture, continued to play singles!
Liu Xiu mainly shot defense, Atkins's outside shooting opportunity was poor, so he chose to break through.
Atkins's directional change skills are excellent. Liu Xiu was shaken out of the breakthrough space, but although Atkins' speed is fast, he starts averagely. Liu Xiu, who is not discouraged, is pushed up with all his strength. Although Atkins has the breakthrough space, under Liu Xiu's difficult sticky defense, he failed to get rid of it after getting the breakthrough space.
It was not until he entered the free throw line that Atkins really passed Liu Xiu. After coming to close range, he flew on the layup excitedly...
"Bang"
Kwame Brown's volleyball hat!
Kwame Brown was surprised at this ball. Atkins' vision and desire to take action were simply incomprehensible.
Liu Xiu, who was chasing Atkins, grabbed the ball and started a counterattack!
Kobe just ran over and started running to the backcourt with all his might.
Liu Xiu and Rahim rushed to the frontcourt, creating a situation of 2-for-1 in a fast break.
Kobe did not give up, first blocked Rahim. When Liu Xiu grabbed the ball and attacked the frame, Kobe tried his best to defend towards Liu Xiu, trying his best to cut off the pass and receiving line between Liu Xiu and Rahim...
Liu Xiu avoided Kobe with a flexible European step, started the third step, and easily scored two points with a basket.
Starting 6-2!
Liu Xiu and Rahim slapped their high-fives and retreated, and the relaxed smiles on their faces deeply stimulated Kobe.
When did Rahim even feel so relaxed when he met him?
Even when they met last season's playoffs, Rahim was so nervous!
The gap that Kobe often feels this season is coming again!
Liu Xiu and Raheem both ran out of the free throw line, and Atkins and Butler ran in. Kobe picked up the ball, ignored Atkins who reached out to receive the ball, and yelled after sending it to Butler: "Pasmi!"
Kobe advanced to the frontcourt by himself, and Payton continued to defend himself. Kobe did not pause and made a breakthrough directly.
Payton was not suspense and was about to be passed again, but he struggled to hold onto Kobe like a dog-skin plaster. Liu Xiu and Rahim on both sides made the same choice at this time. Atkins and Butler two big three-pointers were empty, and Liu Xiu and Rahim chose to attack at the same time.
What is the difference between one and three and empty space?
There are benefits of gaining weight and muscle. Under the protection of Liu Xiu and Payton, Kobe still completed the jump, and the jump height avoided Raheem's pounce and successfully threw the ball out...but it was iron!
Randolph protected the defensive rebound and passed it to Payton.
This time, the Lakers were very active in retreating from defense. Wang Zhizhi, Butler and Odom learned their lessons. Kobe took action and retreated from defense. He had no rebounds to play so much.
During offense and defense conversion, Payton advanced to the frontcourt. Although singles at Atkins was a good option, he did not continue to play singles. The reason was very simple - physical strength.
Liu Xiu received the ball from the outside. Facing Kobe's defense, Liu Xiu used Kwame Brown to make a pick-and-roll three-pointer... As a top defensive player, Kobe easily saw the improvement in Liu Xiu's three-pointer rhythm after pick-and-roll, and was in a bad mood again.
Fortunately, Liu Xiu made a fuck, and Kobe felt much better when he saw the ball hitting the basket.
However, the ball fell and was picked up by Atkins!
Atkins advanced quickly, Kobe hurriedly followed, shouting to me constantly.
The offense and defense were converted, and the Trail Blazers' defense was not stable. Kobe leaned against Liu Xiu and cut to close range and could get on the ball, but Atkins did not pass. Facing Rahim who was replacing defense, Atkins took a three-pointer with a single step...
Sell decisively and simplifiedly!
Kobe wanted to attack for a second time, but was held back by Liu Xiu. The two of them jumped at the same time, but Liu Xiu jumped more fully than Kobe, and he almost protected the defensive rebound.
Liu Xiu immediately took the ball, and Payton, who retreated to the center circle, received the pass, quickly lifted his might to counterattack and took the ball!
Randolph received the free throw line and rushed into the basket, flew and dunked with both hands!
Butler, who retreated to the basket, made a decisive move away. This is not a question of whether to save face. The fat man with a size of more than 120 kilograms rushed up and dunked...
The Lakers have gone from being able to open the Blazers to being a foothold that has not yet stabilized by the Blazers to being a foothold that has been played by the Blazers.
8-2, the Trail Blazers' lead expanded to 6 points!
…
In this case of the Lakers, normal coaches should call a timeout.
But Frank Hamberlain didn't, he, panicked and didn't know what to do, so he decided not to do anything.
On the court, Kobe looked at Atkins viciously. Atkins did not dodge at all and stared at Kobe back, and no one went back to receive the serve.
To be continued...
