"This rookie seems to be a little stronger!" Kobe was sure, it was not an illusion!

Although that level of strength cannot match Kobe himself, Kobe also feels that it is a little more troublesome.

But it was just a little troublesome. Kobe was so cruel that he even dared to hit himself, so he was not afraid of others.

When it came to the Lakers' offense again, Kobe was more prepared and found that he couldn't overpower Liu Mang like he did in the first half, so he used his feet more. Liu Mang only showed a gap for a moment, and that gap was almost

It can be ignored, but Kobe just seized that gap and hit the mid-range shot again!

So desperate!

Liu Mang is not arrogant. He believes that after having an excellent outside strength of 80, coupled with his defensive awareness, he should be considered very good. His defensive attitude is not to mention. When his strength is increased, he will at least be a first-class defense. Of course

There is definitely a gap between him and Bowen and Artest's top-level defensive teams or even the best defensive player level, but it's still pretty good.

But in front of Kobe, he was completely regarded as nothing!

This damn little blacksmith, the future old blacksmith, can really kill his opponent!

And Liu Mang can see that this guy has been studying the Eagles for who knows how long. He knows all the possible defenses of the Eagles well and can play with ease!

There's nothing I can do about it. I can't defend him even if I use O'Neal's star card. I guess even when the Spurs' O'Neal star card adds bonuses, there's nothing I can do against Kobe. Kobe's speed is 91, and using O'Neal's star card has nothing to do with his speed.

Advantage.

You can only fight!

In addition to attacking, Liu Mang also began to prepare to be shameless on the defensive end. Then Liu Mang did not rush to counterattack this time. He called Newbell up and whispered a few words...

Liu Mang dribbled to the frontcourt, used Rahim's pick-and-roll to get rid of Kobe, rushed inside, stepped away from Mark Madsen's defense, and hit a layup.

The Lakers can't do anything against the Hawks' attack inside. The defensive combination of Samakhi Walker and Medvedenko is a bit interesting. The two are the main power forward and the first substitute center. The defensive tacit understanding is very good. Although Zen Master uses the triangle

Known for his offense, his teams have always been one of the best defensive teams in the league.

But Mark Madsen cannot defend the inside. Except for a few inside players who can be counted on one hand, there are few inside players in the league who can compare with O'Neal's defensive dominance at the basket.

After Liu Mang scored, Mark Madsen just handed the ball out. Kobe was holding the ball to counterattack, and the referee's whistle sounded!

Mark Madsen's off-ball foul!

"?"

"?"

Kobe looked at the referee blankly, what the hell? Then he looked at Newbell who fell to the ground and Mark Madsen who looked apologetic, what on earth happened?

Liu Mang was also stunned. Didn't he ask you to commit a foul to stop the opponent's counterattack? Why did you fall down?

Seeing Newbell looking painful and angry, and Mark Madsen looking apologetic, Liu Mang secretly praised Newbell's acting skills. Is this still the cool guy?

Newbell would be absolutely furious if he knew what Liu Mang was thinking.

He was really fouled by the opponent!

Newbell followed the instructions and went up to hug Mark Madsen. He committed a foul first to block the opponent's offensive rhythm. He was already ready to sacrifice his own number of fouls. Who knew that just as he was about to hug the opponent, the opponent pushed him with an elbow?

On the chest, Newbell was knocked down directly.

Mark Madsen was also desperate! He saw Newbell's cold face suddenly became a little excited and looked angry. As one of the Iron-blooded players, Mark Madsen, nicknamed Mad Dog, has always been a...

The hard and smelly guy couldn't stand the gay Newbell, so he couldn't help but knock him over with an elbow.

The goal was favorable to the home court, and many players may not have seen what happened, so the technical desk showed a replay on the big screen. It was indeed Mark Madsen who knocked down Newbell with an elbow, but why was Newbell a power forward?

He did not quickly return to defense but followed Mark Madsen's serve. Indeed, no one except the Eagles players understood.

Anyway, no matter what, the Eagles stopped the Lakers' offense and got the ball!

Eagles frontcourt ball.

Liu Mang moved and took advantage of Muhammad's solid pick-and-roll to catch the ball in the corner and hit a three-pointer directly.

The Eagles scored 7 points in a row and chased 5 points in a row! The score became 57 to 65, and the point difference returned to within 10 points!

The Lakers changed to a smaller lineup in the second half. The purpose was to rely on center Mark Madsen's ability to quickly switch offense and defense to keep up with the Eagles' fast offensive rhythm and counterattack like the Eagles. Fox immediately picked up Liu Mang's goal.

Get up and send it to Fisher. Fisher is still a small fish at this time and is quite fast. He and Kobe counterattack in two lines...

"Beep..."

Damn! Kobe is so angry. Did that guy Mark foul again?

When he turned around, he saw that it was Newbell who committed the foul. Mark Madsen resisted the action of elbowing the opponent this time. Unexpectedly, the opponent hugged him directly after getting close to him!

Mark Madsen feels his anus tightening!

Kobe has a bit of a bad feeling here.

Is the opponent using foul tactics to prevent him from counterattacking?

Kobe remained skeptical about this most likely guess. He knew how fast Liu Mang and Jason Terry were. This combination was faster than him and Fisher!

Newbell's foul dragged the Lakers into a position battle.

Coach Kruger was a little puzzled on the sidelines. Why was the playing different from what he had arranged?

So sad! But it seems to be working well.

Kobe fell into position and got a chance to play in the low post. He turned over and shot a jumper with Liu Mang's back... Liu Mang directly hugged him down!

Liu Mang only committed one foul in the third quarter. There was no foul crisis. He just wanted to prevent Kobe from successfully shooting. He pulled Kobe's shooting right hand fiercely, pulled Kobe down, and then... hugged each other...

…

When Kobe was first pulled down, he thought he had been raped. He subconsciously crossed his arms and legs and folded his arms to prepare for falling to the floor. Unexpectedly, he didn't hit the ground...

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Liu Mang looked at Kobe, who was protecting "every important position" in his arms, and a drop of cold sweat flowed down...

Kobe realized that although Liu Mang deliberately fouled and pulled a bit harshly, he protected his safety. At this moment, he felt that this rookie was quite good, not the kind of person who deliberately injures his opponent...

But seeing the disgust in Liu Mang's eyes, and Kobe realizing that his current posture was a bit awkward, he got angry again and pushed Liu Mang away and landed firmly on the ground.

Liu Mang's behavior of protecting his opponent received applause from the home fans.

Kobe didn't say anything and walked to the free throw line to prepare for the free throw.

Liu Mang went to his bench and said a few words to Coach Kruger. Coach Kruger looked at this shameless disciple in astonishment. How did he teach such a disciple?

However, Coach Kruger has no other tricks. If he had a trick to deal with the rampant Kobe, there wouldn't be so many teams that would be the background for his scoring performances. And the most terrifying thing is that the higher Kobe scores, the more he scores.

, the higher the probability that the Lakers will win. In his 24 career 50-point games, his winning rate exceeds 90%! It is really qualitatively different from ordinary scoring brushes.

The scoring brush means that when this player scores high points, the team loses. However, for Kobe's Lakers, when he scores high, he has a greater chance of winning, but when he scores low, he mostly loses.

Coach Kruger drove Liu Mang away in disgust, and signaled the assistant coach to replace Nubel and replace him with Hannah Mottola.

On Kobe's side, Liu Mang's foul action was indeed a bit big. Kobe missed both free throws. Kobe angrily punched himself in the chest, using the pain to suppress the sanity he was about to lose again.

It was the Hawks' offense again. Liu Mang stalled for time, preventing the game rhythm from entering the Lakers' expected pace. He instilled the Lakers players into the fast pace that the Lakers players had already entered. It took him seven seconds to cross the half court and fell.

position.

Liu Mang reached outside the three-point line and faked a pull-up three-pointer. Although Kobe was not knocked away, he stepped up his feet. The inside players also raised their heads. Mark Madsen even turned around to get blocked. Liu Mang

Mang passed the ball under Kobe's arm, which was inertly raised when he stepped on his feet. At this time, Rahim used Muhammad's mid-range pick-and-roll to cut inside. Liu Mang passed the ball into the basket, and Rahim cut in.

Basketball hit.

Isn’t it just the triangle offense? Who can’t do it?

After some chats with Kukoc, Liu Mang also learned what he should play in the triangle offense...similar to the supporting role positions of Steve Kerr, Fox, Fisher, Odom and others, direct passes.

Entering the basket for Raheem, a great feature of the triangle offense is that it must be bold!

Liu Mang's courage is really big enough. This direct pass, as well as his own shooting ability that attracts defenses, made the Zen Master on the sidelines look at him with envy!

The Zen master looked at Kobe and Liu Mang standing together and shrugged helplessly. The two people seemed to have different personalities. They already had a good rivalry. Let's have a Three Kingdoms War? Let's forget it.

After Rahim's layup, the offense and defense transitioned, and the Lakers attacked.

The Lakers sent the ball out, and the referee's whistle immediately sounded again...

Kobe, who had just received the ball, looked at the backup center that the Hawks had just replaced and hugged Mark Madsen in the same action as Newbell. It was so obvious, how could he still not understand?

Kobe finally understood that the Hawks were using shark-killing tactics!

And it’s shameless to use offensive tactics against a substitute who averages 10 minutes per game!

From this tactical arrangement, Kobe felt a strong sense of the shameless person of a rookie!

Kobe was confused, what is Raheem doing! What is Jason Terry doing!

Two authentic All-Star players did not leave their mark on the team. Instead, this Eagles team was marked as a rookie!
