The game started with a 7-7 tie. Although Maurice Cheeks was happy with the offensive cooperation of the starting lineup, he was dissatisfied with the defense. The opponent made 3 of 3 shots. After Wang Zhizhi scored a three-pointer, Maurice Cheeks got up and went to the sidelines to shout.

Yell defense.

Liu Xiu, who received the serve, immediately accelerated his advance.

Randolph dropped to the low post on the right side of the three-second zone. After receiving Liu Xiu's pass, he started a low post attack.

Wang Zhizhi's single defense in the low post is quite satisfactory. His advantages are his height of 215 centimeters, wingspan of 224 centimeters, quite good mobility after losing weight to 116 kilograms, and hard work!

Randolph's back-up skills are more sophisticated than last season, but his turning speed and take-off are not at their best. Although he squeezed Wang Zhizhi away, his shot was still interfered by Wang Zhizhi's height and wingspan, and his turnaround throw in the middle hit the target.

Basket neck!

Wang Zhizhi collected the defensive rebound and Randolph rushed to grab it. Wang Zhizhi calmly lifted the ball and passed it to Kobe Bryant.

As soon as Kobe received the ball, he turned his back sharply and faced Ray Allen's full-court pressure and rush!

Deron tried to connect with Kobe, but was blocked by Liu Xiu.

Deron was an invincible force in college, summer league, and even preseason, but it is no longer useful now!

93 kilograms and a strength rating of 89, he can resist in front of his 'template'.

Kobe watched six directions, turned around to protect the ball, then immediately turned back, raised his arms and pushed forward against Ray Allen.

Ray Allen did not block anymore and quickly retreated. When Kobe Bryant advanced past half court, Ray Allen had already switched defenses with the Outlaws.

The defensive coordination between Ray Allen and the Outlaws, and the defensive coordination between Ray Allen and Liu Xiu, both left a deep impression on Kobe.

Compared with the offensive end, the Trail Blazers' defensive end cooperation is obviously more tacit.

Originally, Kobe Bryant thought that the Trail Blazers, who acquired Ray Allen, would go one step further and compete with the Suns as the strongest offensive team, but the result was completely different from what he predicted.

No, the Trail Blazers have begun a bloody battle!

Kobe could not easily pass the ball to Deron. The strong Deron acted like a child in front of Liu Xiu, who was bullied by Liu Xiu with his stronger body.

Kobe made a decisive decision and chose to break through!

Kwame Brown's double attack came in time. Randolph received the basket, and with the outlaws, Kobe attracted three defenders. Kwame Brown blocked Kobe's impact and also cut off the pass on the left side of the three-second zone.

In the space, Kobe did not stop. Under Kwame Brown's close defense and the pursuit of the lawless maniacs, he rushed all the way to the right side of the three-second zone. During the confrontation, he took off... and jumped to pass!

Wang Zhizhi moved to the free throw line, and the Outlaws stepped out in time to cover the ball. Wang Zhizhi responded to the ball from the high post. Odom received the ball from the left baseline and had a smooth path to go straight to the basket. With Odom's center-level body,

Starting at the small forward level, when he charges forward, even Kwame Brown can't stop him!

Just when Odom was about to attack the basket, a man who looked ordinary came to the bottom line. With a height difference of more than ten centimeters, this man still fearlessly stood in front of Odom, stunned.

Odom blocked the start!

Warden's active flank defense! He can handle it like a power forward!

Odom can rely on his explosive power and size advantage to continue to rush forward, but his start has been limited and he cannot rush up. His impact when entering the basket will be insufficient. It is too difficult to deal with Kwame Brown. At this moment, he chose to grab the ball with his online intelligence.

The ball, taking advantage of his height, shot directly over Liu Xiu's head!

Liu Xiu was extremely brave and stuck to Odom's body, which affected Odom's take-off power, which in turn affected Odom's entire shooting power.

Although the angle of Odom's shot this time was almost perfect, and he aimed easily like training, he was too weak and hit the left side of the basket and bounced back!

Liu Xiu blocked Odom and collected the defensive rebound! Counterattack!

Deron stood in front of Liu Xiu, and Kobe, Butler, and Wang Zhizhi retreated quickly. Odom interfered with Liu Xiu's passing route to Ray Allen as he retreated.

This retreat came prepared! Liu Xiu did not slow down his advancement because of this. He advanced all the way to the frontcourt in the confrontation with Delong.

At this time, it was Deron's turn not to want to fight, but no, he couldn't withdraw. If Liu Xiu was withdrawn, he would successfully accelerate all the way over. He could only bite the bullet and retreat to the three-point line in the backcourt with Liu Xiu.

Although the fast break failed, Liu Xiu used this counterattack opportunity to create a mismatch!

Advancing does not suppress speed, but it does suppress rhythm during offense. Just like the last round when he chose a more time-consuming and slower-paced low post play, Liu Xiu is also waiting for his teammates to get into position this time.

Deron maintained his defensive posture very focused. Liu Xiu's expression was very casual, but his movements to protect the ball were very cautious. He said in a frivolous tone: "Rookie, did you see the defense I just played? It's a standard demonstration of small defense and big defense. Learn how to do it."

Is it done?"

Delong had no expression on his face, staring closely at Liu Xiu, guarding carefully. The boss said that when faced with Liu Xiu's trash talk, no matter how angry he was, he couldn't show it, otherwise this guy would definitely take advantage of it.

However, Liu Xiu still knew that he had successfully cured the rookie Tanhua in front of him.

"Healing value +58, from Deron Williams."

The teammates adjusted their positions slowly and with 12 seconds left in the attack time, Liu Xiu began to break through!

Delong couldn't see it on the surface, but he was still stimulated by Liu Xiu in his heart. He was quite impatient on defense and wanted to block Liu Xiu's breakthrough to prove himself.

He doesn't like people saying that Liu Xiu is his template!

Then, Liu Xiu made a fake move to deceive Delong's center of gravity, and then made a fake move to the left. Delong was deceived into moving sideways to the right, and Liu Xiu easily broke into the inside line!

With Deron's prepared posture, the Lakers players thought that he could at least bring some obstacles to Liu Xiu, but they didn't expect that their rookie was passed in two steps.

Kobe cursed in his mind, "What the hell am I expecting?" He rushed towards the center and carefully cut off the passing and receiving route in the corner. Ray Allen cut through the baseline and received Liu Xiu's pass, half a step inside the right sideline of the three-second zone.

He took off from his position and smashed the ball into the basket through Wang Zhizhi!

Wang Zhizhi had no choice but to pick up the ball, but there was nothing he could do about it.

During the transition between offense and defense, Deron advanced to the frontcourt, preparing to pass the ball to Kobe. Unexpectedly, Kobe waved his hand and ran to the right baseline, preparing to run without the ball.

Deron was surprised. When Ray Allen dunked, the image of Kobe with his hands on his hips and shaking his head made Deron feel like he was disappointed in his boss.

Unexpectedly, the boss actually gave him a chance to regain his position!

Delong was preparing for the battle and was excited. This was when Wang Zhizhi came out to help him with the pick-and-roll. He burst out of pride from nowhere and shouted: "Get out of the way, don't block, I want to fight the warden in a one-on-one fight!"

Wang Zhizhi backed away angrily, and Deron started to break through Liu Xiu, charging in like a tank from small to large...Liu Xiu roughly pressed forward and blocked Delong from the three-point line!

Delong's cross-step breakthrough + tank breakthrough looked like a child to Liu Xiu.

Deron wanted to take a step away and break through again. Liu Xiu took the initiative to attack. Deron grabbed the ball in panic and stopped it! Liu Xiu reached for the ball! Deron's reaction to protecting the ball was still very good. He turned around in time and stuck out his butt to stop it.

Liu Xiu steals.

Kobe Bryant ran out to respond, and Deron found his savior and quickly released the ball.

During this period, the cheers of the fans at the scene never stopped.

One attack, one defense, Liu Xiu beat Tan Hua Xiu!

Kobe's inner thoughts after receiving the ball: Why can't you learn from me?

But there was no time to complain. Deron took up most of the offensive time. Kobe started to break through after receiving the ball, attracting a double attack and then passing the ball.

When Kobe and Deron are holding the ball and attacking, the overall position of the Lakers is very different, and the rhythm of the game is also different. The temporary adjustments are not bad. Their current lineup is average in defense but really good in offense. All five players on the court can do it.

COSCO shot, but the rhythm of the game was still affected.

Wang Zhizhi caught the ball from the wing and hit a three-point shot that went wide!

Randolph protected the defensive rebound and passed it to Ray Allen. Ray Allen counterattacked with the ball and passed it to Liu Xiu while traveling. Liu Xiu triggered the 'Talent: Flying Squirrel', and the speed during the counterattack was +3, temporary speed.

Reaching 97, he went down as fast as lightning and hit a flying layup!

11 to 7, the Trail Blazers' lead reached 4 points! The Lakers called a timeout!

…

Liu Xiuben wanted to keep up his efforts and take advantage of this momentum to gain a clear lead.

Unexpectedly, Zen Master called a timeout! This was quite surprising. It was not surprising, but Kobe pointed at Deron's nose and cursed after entering the timeout.

Looking at Delong being scolded, Liu Xiu said: "What a miserable rookie."

Kwame Brown looked at the opposite side and nodded decisively: "Yes, it's so miserable! Fortunately, I rejected their contract."

Liu Xiu continued: "In this case, we have to leave a deeper impression on him tonight and let him understand the difficulties of the adult world faster!"

Kwame Brown:????

Co-author: When I was bullied by Jordan before, did my opponents who bullied me think this way?

Those grievance scenes from the past appeared in Kwame Brown's mind, and he immediately decided... Next, he would pay more attention to the defense against Deron, and everyone would bully Deron together.

Others also felt that Delong was miserable, but the worst thing was not that Liu Xiu wanted to increase his efforts to bully the rookie, but that the rookie's strengths were completely defeated by Liu Xiu!

Deron's strengths - strong physique, excellent court vision, top-notch organization and offensive overall situation and awareness.

The Trail Blazers players saw Deron's obvious talent in the early stages.

His strong physique allows Deron to use an unreasonable style of play - hard chisel - when his skills are not good enough and his game experience is not rich enough.

But! These advantages of Delong are also the advantages of Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu is stronger in these aspects!

Deron did a good job of attacking in series and passing the ball in transition. Liu Xiu's way to deal with Deron was not to mobilize the entire team's defense to deal with the Lakers' offense, but to simply and crudely use physical confrontation to deal with Deron, without giving Deron any chance.

The opportunity to think did not give Delong the opportunity to make complete technical moves... In front of Liu Xiu, Delong's advantages turned into flaws!

…
