Chapter 152 No solution to pull out, make Kobe's signature celebration
"Damn it! I'll give that kid more strength in the second quarter!"
During the break, Kobe said on the Lakers bench with an unhappy look on his face.
Letting Chen Yan score so many points in the first quarter was obviously not part of his plan.
"If he dares to enter the paint, I'll give him something hard!" Garnett also clenched his fists and said, showing off his tough guy temperament.
The Lakers are not the Raptors. They have the dignity of a veteran team and will not let Chen Yan continue to do whatever he wants on the offensive end.
The second quarter of the game started quickly.
Since the first quarter was full, D'Antoni did not send Chen Yan to lead the second lineup. Chen Yan turned on the short-term movie viewing mode on the sidelines.
The Suns' second lineup was in average shape, and except for veteran Hill, no one else found their touch after coming on the field.
And Hill is not the kind of player who can drive a full-scale offense, so it is obvious from the scene that the Suns' second team's offense is lagging.
However, the Lakers' substitute lineup is not much better. The substitutes Turiaf, Vujacic, and Radmanovic are second- and third-rate players themselves. It is unrealistic for the Lakers to expect them to chase points.
At 7 minutes and 31 seconds of the second quarter, taking advantage of the dead ball situation on the court, both sides sent the starting players onto the field again.
Chen Yan immediately felt Kobe's pressure on the defensive end after coming on the court!
Kobe fulfilled what he said during the break and faced Chen Yan continuously from the start.
The sudden intensity made Chen Yan a little uncomfortable. In the next 4 minutes, Chen Yan's three shots all ended in a strike!
"Chen's touch declined after entering the second quarter, which is not a good thing for the Suns." In the commentary box, Kenny Smith analyzed Chen Yan's performance in the second quarter.
"No, it's not that Chen's touch has declined, it's that Kobe has increased his defensive intensity. Two of Chen's shots have been deformed by Kobe's pressure. It's usually difficult to hit in such circumstances." Barkley also analyzed seriously.
Kenny Smith agreed with Barkley's analysis: "Kobe Bryant has been to the All-Defensive Team five times before. He is one of the best perimeter defenders in the entire league, and he is a super scorer in his own right.
For a scorer like Chen, he has his own unique insights."
Barkley nodded: "As a rookie, Chen still needs to learn a lot in front of Kobe."
Although Barkley is a stalemate, he has to face the facts.
Sun attack round.
The score on the court was 46 to 45, and the Lakers temporarily took the lead.
"Rookie, you can use any offensive method, but don't even think about throwing the ball into the basket, because the person standing in front of you is named Kobe Bryant!"
Kobe was no longer satisfied with the physical pressure on Chen Yan, and even started trash-talking attacks!
Chen Yan didn't reply. The successive strikes in the previous rounds made him feel angry all the time.
Chen Yan has very high demands on himself and he cannot accept such performance.
And Kobe's trash talk was like a spark, instantly stimulating Chen Yan's desire to win!
A sudden start after a reverse run!
The moment Chen Yan caught the ball at the top of the arc, he made a tentative step!
Test step after catching the ball!
Kobe didn't stumble, but he didn't dare to attack either.
Taking advantage of this defensive gap, Chen Yan took a step outside the three-point line and threw out [God's Dry Pull]!
"coming!!"
Yu Jia in the tv5 studio had already started shouting in advance.
"Whoosh!"
A three-point arrow, thousands of troops come to meet you!
46 to 48.
This is also Chen Yan’s first sports game score in the second quarter!
After scoring the goal, Chen Yan showed no restraint at all and directly showed his hands to Kobe.
This was his response to Kobe’s trash talk just now!
The fans at the scene screamed dozens of decibels after seeing this scene!
They just like to see Chen Yan looking so arrogant!
In the Lakers' offensive round, Kobe wants the ball to hit hard!
He continuously ran over Laga Bell with his back and entered the free throw line. The moment he turned around, Chen Yan and Diaw surrounded him one on the left and the other on the right.
The three of them worked together to block, interfering with Kobe's picturesque fadeaway shot!
Kobe's offensive intention in this round was too obvious. Everyone could see that he wanted to pay Chen Yan back!
Stoudemire protected the defensive rebound inside and handed it to Nash.
Nash moved to the top of the arc and observed his teammates' movements, ready to deal the cards at any time.
And Chen Yan began to escape continuously under Kobe's high pressure!
Movement!
Movement!
Run again!
Constantly speeding up and slowing down, the two of them seemed to be in a chasing match on the basketball court!
From a visual perspective, just two words: outrageous!
All eyes in the audience could not help but be fixed on Chen Yan and Kobe.
Fans no longer care much about what Nash, the ball-carrying player, and Fisher, the ball-carrying defender, are doing on the field...
Kobe's idea is very clear, which is to make it more difficult for Chen Yan to catch the ball, even making it impossible for him to complete the ball!
Chen Yan's dry pull relies almost entirely on the instant explosive power of his calves. There is no extra movement before taking off. Moreover, Chen Yan has a fast bounce speed and a high jump height. In addition, he has a standard height and an exaggerated wingspan.
It’s almost impossible to prevent stem pulling!
Unless the defender takes off early, it will be difficult to interfere.
So all Kobe can do is keep him away from basketball as much as possible!
However, after the first few minutes of confrontation, Chen Yan had gradually adapted to Kobe's intensity.
"Zi~"
"Zi~"
After two sudden stops, Chen Yan received a pass from Nash at a 60-degree angle outside the left three-point line!
Without any adjustment, Chen Yan suddenly shot a cold arrow at the three-point line and shot with a drift!
Kobe pushed his legs to the ground and flew to block the hole of the gun!
"Whoosh!"
Chen Yan ignored Kobe's defense and hit the ball with ease!
46 to 51!
With two consecutive three-pointers, Chen Yan felt that everything was back!
After the ball was scored, Chen Yan made his most signature celebration move of raising a gun and cooking smoke in front of Kobe!
Seeing Chen Yan's celebration, Kobe's anger instantly surged to 100%!
