Chapter 12 Counterpoint Little Melon
Chapter 12: The Little Melon
What?
The system just matched me with Artest's star card, and the coach asked me to play against Anthony?
Is there something like this coincidence?
But with my little body, Brother Gua won’t swallow me alive after he goes on stage?
The coaches have named them, so let’s bite the bullet.
Pause time ends.
The Lakers made personnel adjustments, and the starting lineup was basically left on the court, but Chen Cheng replaced Walton.
Before going on the court, Kobe clapped hard on the side and encouraged his teammates.
Perhaps it was because of the home game, or maybe it was because Chen Cheng gave him inspiration. Today he appeared as a "Black Mamba" and his psychological burden was much less.
"Come on, Black Mamba will be watching you!" As he said that, he stretched out his two fingers, pointed to his eyes, and then pointed at Chen Cheng.
The meaning is very obvious. If you can't handle Anthony, I will help you defend.
TNT's hosts are also expressing their opinions on such a change of array.
Barkley also believes that the Lakers will let Kobe defend Anthony. If he lets him continue to play like this, once the game goes smoothly, the situation will be difficult to deal with.
Kenny also thinks so, but he prefers Kobe to put pressure on Anthony. Chen Cheng plays to share Kobe's scoring pressure.
When Chen Cheng was mentioned, Barkley immediately looked disdainful.
The Nuggets on the opposite side still maintain the starting lineup.
Miller took the ball and advanced, Payton was keeping a guard at halftime, Kobe was still keeping a close eye on Leonard, and Chen Cheng went to guard against Anthony.
This move made everyone exclaim that they couldn't understand.
Everyone knows that Zen Master is a person who does not follow the norm, but with Chen Cheng's tonnage and competition experience, if you want to limit Anthony, you will undoubtedly deliver food to Anthony.
In fact, the Zen master's idea is very simple. George is in two fouls, and Little Walton is in a bad defense, and no one is available at the third position.
If Kobe is used to fight against Anthony, he doesn't like this kind of dugun tactic.
Besides, he didn't even think that Chen Cheng could defend Anthony.
The purpose is to let players like Chen Cheng, who are particularly eager to play, use his passion and physical strength to consume and interfere with Anthony. It doesn't matter whether they can defend against it or not.
As long as he can consume his physical strength, Chen Cheng's goal of playing will be achieved.
Miller once again gave the ball to Anthony.
It was the forty-five-degree position he was familiar with. Everyone else opened up space for him. Chen Cheng stepped forward and pressed him to make defensive interference.
Artest's defensive characteristics are very obvious. He is not fast, and the kind of player who is elegant and agile in defense is not very advantageous.
But he handles these technical players with some tonnage in hand.
His body is very strong and his lower limbs are strong. Secondly, his long arms can cause interference from the opponent's catch, and your offensive route is stuck under his feet, which makes you very uncomfortable.
Just so happens, Anthony is such a player, with a certain tonnage and likes to fight.
Faced with this strange and thin Chinese player, 19-year-old Anthony didn't take him seriously at all.
He only has Kobe in his eyes. He is very eager to show himself in front of Kobe, and even hopes to compete directly with Kobe on the court.
So, at the beginning of the game, Anthony used all his skills to show off various offensive methods to score points. The veteran George could only follow his rhythm and also lost two fouls.
Unexpectedly, the Lakers did not replace Kobe in the end to face him, but instead replaced a rookie - a classmate who only signed a short contract with a 10-day contract.
If you can't force Kobe out, then take the defenders in front of you one by one.
Anthony first tried to shake Chen Cheng's center of gravity, but Chen Cheng was like stomping on horseback, motionless and did not shake at all.
Anthony thought he was too slow to react and didn't have time to make moves, so he stopped doing extra moves and directly put the ball in, wanting to make a jump shot on his head.
Just as he was about to take the ball, Chen Cheng suddenly made a move and cut off the ball from Anthony's hand.
The commentator on the sidelines has begun to get excited.
"Chen Cheng cut off the basketball from Anthony's hand, Kobe had already started to make a fast break. Chen Cheng saw Kobe, a quarter-pointer long pass, Kobe received the ball, and franchise! Beautiful steal, perfect fast break, show time! "
The fans at home were also ignited by the commentary's emotions, and the cheers at the scene were getting higher and higher.
Kobe reached out and Chen Cheng a little bit, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Anthony stood there with his hands on his hips, with a smile on his face.
The Nuggets launched another attack, and Anthony once again took the initiative to ask for the ball at the forty-five degrees.
This time, he wanted to use his back-to-body skills to teach Chen Cheng a lesson.
The thin Chen Cheng was pressing against Anthony behind him. At this time, Artest's star card played a big role.
With the support of Atai's power, Chen Cheng and Anthony's confrontation was not at all inferior...
Miller made a long hang and hanged the ball to Anthony. Anthony turned on his bulldozer mode and put pressure on Chen Cheng again and again with his strong body.
The sound of muscle collisions even the audience on the sidelines could clearly hear it.
Chen Cheng was also secretly exerting his strength to confront Anthony.
Anthony's offensive methods are varied and unpredictable, so ordinary players are either pushed away or shook by his steps and lose their defensive position.
Chen Cheng was not the case. While fighting against him with all his strength, he could always block his offensive route under his feet, and he explained it cleanly without those messy little moves.
It's just a head-on defense, which makes the little melon extremely uncomfortable.
The more he wanted to break through Chen Cheng's defense, the more he wanted to squeeze him away, but the more he wanted to squeeze him away, but he couldn't.
With repeated efforts, Anthony became anxious and turned a blind eye to the big gap between his teammates on the outside, just to see Chen Cheng.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Chen Cheng suddenly retreated in time after he exerted his strength. This move was called removing the stool, which first gave the offensive players the illusion that they had to fight against him, and then suddenly removed their strength.
If the other party doesn't exert too much force, there is still room for adjustment when closing the trend in time.
But the melon is now on the rise and is trying its best to lean over again. Unexpectedly, Chen Cheng suddenly retreated.
I saw him staggering, his feet unstable, and he fell into the penalty area.
Chen Cheng no longer hesitated and fell to the ground to compete for the floor ball.
Seeing this, Anthony quickly hugged the ball firmly in his hand and called for a timeout.
The referee whistle sounded, and the suspension was given to the Nuggets.
Anthony was pulled up from the ground by his teammates. He stared at Chen Cheng hard and smashed the basketball in his hand to the floor.
When he returned to the team bench, he was still not satisfied and smashed the towel handed over by the staff to the ground.
All of this was recorded by the camera.
