Chapter 261 Robbing Gasol, this is a great step for the team!
The Lakers didn't care how many points Bosh scored on offense, because they didn't score as many points as Kobe.
Floating inside and away from the basket is an unreliable style of play. It just makes the bullets fly a little longer.
When the Lakers attacked, Fisher held the ball for half the game and handed it over to Kobe.
"After the triple threat stepped forward, Kobe dribbled the ball to the inside and broke through. Anthony Parker tried his best to keep up, but Kobe turned his back. Jamario Moon let go of Jiangsu Bei's defense and pounced to attack.
Kobe pushed the basketball with both hands and sent it out of the perimeter..."
Su Bei catches the ball, raises the ball, jumps up, raises his hand and shoots a three-point jump shot...
Jamario Moon is very quick to return to defense and has very strong athletic ability. After all, this person’s skills are very rough. Being able to make a living in basketball depends on his physical talent. As for being able to make a living in the NBA,
, it took many years to become a mother-in-law. She jumped up high in the middle of the sprint. With the help of powerful bounce, her fingertips were just a few hundred million points away from touching the basketball. People gave her the nickname "Moon Man", which was not earned for nothing.
Swish——!
When the opportunity came up and fell, Su Bei made good use of it and hit a three-pointer steadily.
7 to 6!
Jamario Moon looked calm. If he had to guard someone, no matter if he chose 100 times or 1,000 times, he would continue to double-team Kobe.
One is 2 points and the other is 3 points. Anyone who knows numbers will choose to defend against 3 points.
Basketball is not football. One or two points really means nothing to the outcome of the game?
However, Kobe can be an exception.
The 3 points scored by Su Bei can be said to be a mild blow to them, as long as they try their best to recover during the attack.
Kobe's 2 points are different. In fact, they are not very harmful, but they are very insulting.
After Kobe's record of 81 points, Moon and Parker both have a reputation in their hearts. If the two of them guarding the perimeter encounter another incident like Kobe's and score a high score in a single game, what will the management think?
What will the fans think?
No matter how you think about it, you can definitely doubt their strength.
Others just wanted points, but Kobe wanted to lose his job!
Therefore, they realized that Subei can have open three-pointers from the outside, but Kobe's offense must die.
"The Menglong team attacked, Calderon and Bargnani played a pick-and-roll tactic.
Bargnani caught the ball, faced Fisher's block, raised his hand and made a two-point jumper..."
Bang-dang——!
Bargnani missed the mid-range shot and missed the shot.
Stay away from the basket and bet on whether the shooting pistol has bullets? You must be prepared to have no bullets.
The basket doesn't like them. The further away from the basket, the lower the shooting rate.
Bosh spread his hands and cursed. He was not used to Bargnani's offensive choices.
If the ball goes in, he has nothing to say, but if it doesn't, he has to lecture others.
Garnett did it too.
Because of the management's blind selection, the Menglong team had two empty inside players. Bosh was unwilling to enter the penalty area to guard, and Bargnani was unwilling to enter the penalty area to guard.
If you don't stand guard and I don't stand guard, who will protect the basket and who will protect the backboard?
Bosh had no choice but to use his power to suppress Bargnani. After all, a dead Taoist friend is better than a poor Taoist.
His idol Garnett also did it, and Bosh was just copying his homework, so what bad intentions could he have?
"The Lakers attacked, Kobe caught the ball, broke through, and was flanked again.
Kobe didn't like them.
If one person defends, there will be an opening, but if two people defend, it will also be an opportunity..."
Bang-dang——!
Kobe's turnaround and fadeaway jumper missed. Everyone's gun has a hard time, and naturally there are also soft times. Now it depends on whose gun lasts longer?
"Bosh grabbed the rebound, the Menglong team counterattacked, Calderon, with his calm style of play, sent the basketball to the frontcourt, and Moon and Su Bei competed for speed.
The leader was Moon. He took the ball and rushed to the basket, trying to dunk with one hand. Su Bei came out from behind, jumped really high, and slapped the basketball away with his big hand.
Calderon, who came back, got the basketball again, stabilized it, passed the basketball to Bosh, who rushed back, caught the ball and shot a jumper, and he shot..."
Bang-dang——!
Bosh's mid-range shot also missed.
The basketball was taken off by Su Bei. Bargnani and Bosh, who had just returned, looked at each other, as if to say, you did the same thing and missed the shot from the outside.
Stay out of my business from now on!
Bosh didn't respond and could only walk away silently.
By the way, the second-year No. 1 pick is quite valuable.
In addition, Bargnani had just joined the Mongolian team, which allowed Bosh to get a foothold in the playoffs last season. Although his statistics were only half of Bosh's, it was not easy to get him.
On the field, the Menglong team's two inside lines were evacuated. Before the status and position of the two sides could be sorted out, their outside defense was penetrated again.
"Kobe didn't dwell on individual duels, Fisher handed the basketball to Su Bei.
Then he cut into the basket, used Odom's cover to get rid of Calderon's defense, and took over the pass. Fisher hit the back door of the Rams and faced Bargnani's protection.
The basket was blocked and the basketball was forced into the basket..."
Peng, shua——!
Fisher used his small skills to defeat the big players, carrying Bargnani's body and still hitting the board hard to score the basketball.
9 to 6!
One thing to say is that in the 2006 draft, Nowitzki was used as a template, and there would be nothing wrong with Bargnani being the number one pick.
After all, Nowitzki played an MVP performance and led the Mavericks to the Finals. Even before the regular season of the 2006/07 season, choosing Nowitzki as a template was expected by everyone. He was the MVP in the regular season.
However, after the 2007 playoffs, Nowitzki was known as a softie, and Bargnani's style of play was not much better. It cannot be said to be similar to Nowitzki's, it can only be said to be exactly the same, defensively
Although he is very tall, he cannot protect the basket.
"The Menglong team attacked, Bosh feinted a shot, dribbled the ball through, came up to the man, withstood Odom's block at close range, and made a two-point jumper.
Bang-dang——!
Blacksmithing again.
It's not over yet. Bosh's rebound blocked the offensive space. Bosh passed the ball. Calderon transferred to Bargnani under the basket, hit Turiaf with his back, and during the confrontation, he threw the basketball towards the basket.
…”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Bang Dang——!
Bargnani's low post attack was sent.
In his rookie season, his mid-range shooting percentage reached 43%. However, this season his mid-range shooting percentage has become 39%. It is not that he is being defended, but that one of the two evacuated inside players will always score.
Play under the basket.
He has no choice now. He also wants to learn from Nowitzki and Gasol and attack from the outside.
However, Bosh is not willing to stand guard in the penalty area. He chooses one of the two. The only one injured is him, a newcomer with no status. Even if he is the No. 1 pick, Bosh can be the Dragon King. He looks like a dragon, and he is from the Dragon Team.
The real cornerstone, Bargnani can't match, so he can only try to attack in the low post.
However, you will die if you try. Bargnani's physical confrontation is still too weak. Using methods that he is not good at to attack the opponent's defense will only bring trouble to himself.
"Odom picked off the rebound and launched a quick counterattack.
Odom controlled the ball and took a few steps before passing the ball to Fisher. At this time, Kobe and Su Bei rushed to the frontcourt like two sharp blades.
Fisher sent the basketball to the frontcourt, and Kobe received the ball, forming a 2-on-1 in the frontcourt. Kobe broke through and passed the basketball to Kobe. As soon as Moon moved his steps, Su Bei sent the basketball back to Kobe's hands...
"
Bang-dang——!
Kobe used a step-up single dunk to slam the basketball into the basket.
Moon defended one against two, and only defended against one loneliness.
Subsequently, the Menglong team's inside attack, under the shrinking formation of the Lakers, took jump shots away from the basketball, but still missed.
To be honest, the Lakers' interior rim protection is not good either. However, Bosh's low post singles are much worse, and Bargnani can only shoot jumpers. Their low post offense relies entirely on shooting touch, and the interior offense is almost useless.
Jamario Moon and Anthony Parker are both 3D players who cannot open up inside. Facing the defense of Kobe and Su Bei, they can only stare.
Calderon, who has a steady style of play, can only fight with the bayonet and try to shoot a three-point jumper.
Swish——!
Calderon, who is 1.91 meters tall, took a jump shot against Fisher, who was 1.85 meters tall, and steadily hit a three-pointer.
In the first quarter of the game, Calderon became the best offensive player of the Menglong team. He had tried his best to underestimate the strength of the Lakers point guard, but he still overestimated it. Fisher couldn't stand him!
What do you use to top it up?
Shrink the defense and shoot for three-point jumpers. Use pick-and-roll tactics to close up and shoot misplaced jumpers.
Pick-and-rolls and jump shots are exactly what Calderon is good at, but Fisher is not good at guarding pick-and-rolls.
Fortunately, apart from the offensive bayonet on the outside, the outside lineup put together by the Menglong team is just a younger brother.
Kobe's personal offense has no solution. After being double-teamed, he can still score points and his offense is unstoppable.
After the first quarter, the score was 31 to 23. The Lakers took an 8-point lead under the leadership of Kobe Bryant who made 5 of 6 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and 10 points in a single quarter.
Su Bei hit a 3-pointer and then hit a 2-pointer for a layup. His performance was just okay.
In the second quarter of the game, Jackson stopped cheating and let Kobe and Odom continue to lead the team, and sent Farmar, Walton and Radmanovic to take turns.
Su Bei continued to enjoy the treatment of the main force and returned to the bench to rest.
On the Menglong team, even the main lineup is cobbled together at a cheap price. No one in the rotation lineup can play. Anyone who can play is in the lineup.
No choice but to use the old method.
Don't ask, if you ask, it's just the main force.
It just so happened that Bosh, Bargnani and Calderon were all young, so they could do whatever they wanted, and they could play around with their positions.
Not to mention, although this technique is crude, it is very practical.
The two sides fought almost evenly, with the Lakers outscoring the Dragons 30 to 28, only expanding their lead by 2 points.
At the end of the first half, the score was 61 to 51. The Lakers entered the locker room to rest with a 10-point lead.
In the second quarter, Kobe continued his efficient offense, making 5 of 6 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 11 points, 2 rebounds, and 1 assist.
Kobe scored 21 points in the first half alone. This is not unusual. What is strange is that Kobe played very efficiently and only missed 2 shots. Are you afraid?
After resting for 15 minutes, he returned to the second half of the game.
Kobe continued to play music and dance offensively. He made 4 of 8 shots and his shooting percentage dropped a lot. However, he made 3 of 5 three-pointers, plus 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 13 points in a single quarter, which was his personal score.
, improved to 34 points.
The Lakers' lead also expanded by 1 point, taking an 11-point lead.
At this point, the Menglong team also knew that the strength of the lineup was not as good as that of the Lakers, and this game might be a miss.
Not even possible, but certain.
It is impossible for Kobe to replicate his score of 81 points that night, but no matter what, Kobe's score must be suppressed.
The zone defense of Anthony Parker and Jamario Moon was not enough. Bosh was still in the penalty area, forming a defensive triangle with the outside, just to lock down Kobe's offense.
However, in this game, Kobe's shooting seemed to be divinely assisted and his shooting was so accurate.
In the fourth quarter, he made 5 of 7 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, and 1 of 1 free throws. He scored 12 points in a single quarter. In one sentence: How lonely it is to be invincible!
Kobe's performance tonight was stable, efficient and invincible, making the game very simple and clear.
Buzz——!
As the buzzer sounded and the red light sounded, the game time was over.
The score was 124 to 101. The Lakers had a 23-point advantage and beat the Menglong.
The moment the buzzer sounded, Kobe was excited and high-fived the fans and spectators on the sidelines in celebration.
19 of 28 shots, 4 of 8 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, scored 46 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. Kobe conquered the entire arena tonight, and he is indeed very happy.
It's just that Kobe was too excited.
Do you think it's possible that Kobe was taking drugs?
Su Bei made 4 of 8 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 12 points, 5 assists, and 5 rebounds. As a role player, his performance was quite adequate. He and Kobe scored 58 points together, which is a gift.
Gifts for new players.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Bosh scored 27 points and Bargnani scored 28 points. The two big insiders scored only 55 points together, which was not as good as the 58 points of the Lakers' golden double guns. The game was lost.
It's not unfair.
At the press conference after the game, no one paid attention to the outcome of this game. Gasol landed in the City of Angels, but it exploded in the North American sports circle.
When Kobe was asked what he thought of Gasol joining the Lakers.
"This is a great deal for the team!" Kobe couldn't hide his excitement and his eyes were shining.
"This is a great step for the team, it's a shot in the arm and it will make us more united. We already have depth and now we have depth in the paint, and we have a lot of players in the lineup.
A player who can play multiple positions.
Now it’s time to take big steps forward.”
Kobe has a peerless look on his face. At this moment, Kobe, who is full of confidence, has improved his appearance to a higher level. He has broken away from the low-level handsomeness and is so handsome that the reporters are fascinated and thrilling.
Kobe almost shouted on the spot: Our Lakers are the championship!
After waiting for three years, I finally waited for an opportunity, an opportunity with confidence, not to prove how strong I am, but to get back what I lost.
"The Lakers sent Kwame Brown, Gavaris Crittenton, Aaron McGee, Marc Gasol's signing rights, future first-round draft picks in 2008 and 2010, and some cash to get Pau Gasol.
and a future second-round pick, do you think it's possible that this trade is a robbery?
Is it too much for the Lakers to exchange a few coins for an All-Star? Is there any behind-the-scenes manipulation in this?"
Kobe still had excitement on his face. After all, he never thought that he could use "just this" chips to trade for Gasol. This was simply a dream deal.
“I am not dissatisfied with the transaction operations of the management house.
The next game is left to our players..."
"..."
Reporters obviously couldn't get Kobe's real answer.
After all, the Lakers make money.
How could you express the details and feelings? Wouldn’t that make people hate you?
Of course, if the Lakers are gearing up for a championship, they will be jealous and hated whether they say it or not. This is unavoidable.
The press conference after the game just left the Menglong players aside, and then ended in a hurry.
As two players, Ariza and Gasol, were traded to Los Angeles one after another, the Lakers' 15 "best players" also changed in the 2007-08 season.
