Chapter 220 [One Fat with Four Small]

This time in Los Angeles, Zhou Xuan first visited the Olsen sisters and had a meal together.

Recently, the news has been talking about Zhou Xuan's girlfriend, and he and the O'Neerson sisters don't have to worry about any more scandals when they eat.

Zhou Xuan went to see his agent Mitchell again in the afternoon? Butler, signed a new endorsement contract, also a big brand, energy drink - Red Bull!

Invented in Thailand in 1966 by the Chinese, Red Bull is now the most prestigious Asian brand in the beverage industry, and has since become the world's leading beverage brand. After nearly 40 years of pioneering operation, Red Bull is currently the world's No. 1 brand in the functional drink market, and has been the No. 1 in the functional drink market in the United States, the United Kingdom and China. It has been sold in nearly 70 countries and regions in the world, and has become a recognized leading brand of functional drinks.

This is an old brand, used to replenish energy, Zhou Xuan chose to sign a contract without hesitation, and the endorsement is also in line with his identity as an athlete.

After everything was done and the signing representative was sent away, Mitchell smiled: "Your shoes are now on sale, the star game is really good, I didn't expect you to win the MVP." I think Kobe Bryant is going to hit you hard because he's the one who scores the most points and he's so close to the MVP. ”

"We defend together, if he wants to hit me, he can only attack in the middle and can't choose anywhere else." Zhou Xuan was in a relaxed mood, the Warriors now have someone who can defend, and it will not be his turn.

"By the way, you now have a new nickname, how about it, do you like it?" Mitchell asked.

"Yes, I love it."

There are fewer people who say that Zhou Xuan is "Chinese Stockton", and American fans have given him a new nickname - "Enchanter"! , which means sorcerer, magician.

Johnson's nickname is just "magic", which means magic, which shows how high fans who like team basketball praise Zhou Xuan. In his first season in the league, he can compare his passing to NBA legends, and he looks like he has a mysterious amount of power.

That night, the Staples Center was full. Countless Hollywood stars, singers, and celebrities arrived at the scene to watch the game. This is the focus of this round, and TNT Radio will broadcast live across the United States.

Not only Stephen? Jackson's comeback, commentator Charles? Barkley also made a comeback. TNT Radio Stars lost to ESPN in the live ratings during the Star Game, and rushed to let him come out to save the game.

Barkley was in a good mood today, and at the beginning of the live broadcast, he laughed: "Guests, fans, Ladiesand folks, I want to kill you!" (That's not what Barkley said, but that's what it means.) )

Kenny? Smith finally got rid of Webb and could talk to Barkley, and he was happy. "Charles, Jackson is back today, the Warriors will play with the strongest lineup, and the Lakers have no injuries now, who do you think will win?"

Barkley restrained his smile and said: "Today is the home court of the Lakers, and they are also ranked first in the West, so of course I am optimistic that the Warriors will win!" With Gasol and Kobe Bryant here, the Lakers are an offensive powerhouse. But their outside defense is too poor, I'm afraid they won't be able to defend against the opponent. ”

Anyone who follows the Lakers knows that Fisher is poor at defending among the starting point guards of 30 teams, and he is okay defensively in the system, but he is afraid of fast guards. He can't prevent a breakthrough without blocking, and he always can't catch up after blocking.

When Zhou Xuan played, the Chinese fans in Los Angeles were still very enthusiastic, and they also supported the Warriors, and whoever played well would support whomever they wanted. Zhou Xuan was wearing on his feet, of course, the pair of mage combat boots, and the photographer gave a close-up.

Kobe Bryant's face was calm after he came out, and he tried to shoot on the court, Fisher looked at Zhou Xuan, thinking that he would definitely have to attack me today, but he wanted to win the assist king, and he could also focus on passing, hoping that his teammates could block him.

Both sides started and the Warriors lineup changed. Zhou Xuan, Ellis, Margety, Marion, Randolph.

Lakers Fisher, Kobe, Wharton, Gasol, Bynum.

This is the Lakers' usual starter, and the pace is certainly much slower than the Warriors. As soon as Easley starts, many people understand what the old Nelson means, and this one must be accelerated.

The game started with a jump ball won easily by Bynum and passed to Fisher. Lao Yu brought it to the front court and found that the Warriors were in a joint defense, with Zhou Xuan at the top of the arc and Ellis on the side.

In the previous two games, Fisher already knew that Zhou Xuan's defense breakthrough was very strong, and he didn't make unnecessary attempts and passed to Kobe Bryant on the right side. According to the coach's arrangement, Kobe hoisted the ball to Gasol in the low post, and Marion defended the ball.

Obviously, this is the biggest weakness of the Warriors' lineup, and the height difference between the two is very large. If the Lakers don't pull out the two interior lines, they just catch the ball and attack strongly, and the Warriors are under a lot of pressure. Gasol took the ball with his back and leaned towards Marion, dribbled to the middle and hooked the ball in. 0 to 2.

"The Hacker" simply couldn't have blocked Gasol's hook, his arms were too long, which made the advantage even greater.

Old Nelson had anticipated this possibility, and the old god was there on the long side. He didn't plan to start Turyaf, so Kobe Bryant would probably be open and it would be okay for Gasol and Bynum to shoot.

Nelson Sr. calculated Kobe's character, he took 30 shots in the last game, and this time he passed the ball throughout the game and delivered cannonballs to his teammates? How is that possible? And Marion is in the Warriors, and the elder Nelson doesn't plan to let him on the bench, so he won't be able to play to his greatest advantage.

Offense is the way for the Warriors to win.

Zhou Xuan led the half, the Lakers also defended the position, and Fisher was at the top of the arc. Zhou Xuan motioned for his teammates to pull away and start singles. The first time the two teams met, Zhou Xuan scored consecutive points. This time he took the ball to the right and then to the left, dribbling without any tricks and passing Fisher in one step.

Fisher's lateral movement was slow, Bynum's defense was very fast, and Gasol was left alone under the basket.

Zhou Xuan shifted the ball to the right corner widely, Marion pulled the ball to the bottom corner, and Randolph was still under the basket. It was an unpretentious pass, but Gasol was uncomfortable. If he saves to prevent a shot, Marion hoisting the ball inside is an opportunity. If you don't get out, Marion is on the outside.

Marion's shooting posture is the weirdest in the league, but it would be a mistake to think that his shooting style is inaccurate. His main offensive means were throwing, dunks and jump shots, and he shot very decisively, ignoring the shooting percentage and daring to shoot without hesitation in any situation, which is the result of the Suns staying for several years. He shot 33 from three-point range in his career. 4%, which is only 0 lower than Kobe. 1 percentage point.

Marion scored on a one-step jumper from inside the three-point line. 2 to 2.

The Lakers attacked, and Marion went around the front to defend. Don't look at Marion's small stature, the Suns often used his vitality and bounce to constantly defend Yao Ming in front of him, cutting off the connection between the outside players and Yao Ming, and Yao Ming was not easy to catch the ball. He also went around the front to defend Duncan, Randolph and others.

Kobe paused with the ball, found that the ball was not easy to pass, and distributed it to Fisher on the periphery, and then ran to the middle without the ball to get the ball, and Bynum came out to block it.

Kobe Bryant also played the ball very smart, trying to open up the space and misalign the attack, but Marion immediately gave up Gasol to switch to the block, and Randolph continued to keep up with Gasol in the low post.

Seeing Marion facing Kobe, the "Zen master" on the sidelines unconsciously glanced at the Warriors coach's seat. He felt that the Warriors brought in Marion in order to deal with the Lakers. People often say that Battier is an expert at defending Kobe, but in fact, Jackson knows that players like Prince, Prince, and Marion are the best at defending Kobe. Fast speed, high jumps, non-stop interference with long arms.

After Kobe Bryant misplaced, he didn't return to Bynum in the middle, and made a quick stop jump shot on the right side, Marion struggled to interfere, the ball bounced out of the frame, and the rebound was snatched by Randolph, the Warriors immediately launched a fast attack, Zhou Xuan retreated and threw the ball to the front court, Ellis had rushed into the Lakers restricted area, left Bynum far behind, and received a pass in front of the free throw line to score a layup. 4 to 2.

Barkley laughed: "The Lakers have to guarantee a success rate, and if they run against the Golden State track and field team, this ball is not going to be easy to play." ”

"Ellis is really rushing up, he's going to start just to do that, and the Lakers have to pick up and defend," Smith said. ”

At this point, Fisher dribbled the ball to the front, and Marion went around again, preventing Gasol from receiving the ball easily. The two were old rivals, and Gasol immediately ran to the basket on the other side, while Bynum raised the high post, Fisher passed the ball to Walton and Gasol on the left side, and Randolph and Marion also completed the switch. The main task of the "hackers" is external.

Gasol singled Randolph with his back, and the fat man played his only advantage on the defensive end, that is, strength, and pushed Gasol to a step outside the three-second zone.

Gasol dribbled two steps and couldn't squeeze Randolph, passed the ball to the middle to the empty Kobe, Zhou Xuan let go of Fisher from the middle and followed Kobe to the middle, stretching out his right hand from behind and stabbing the basketball.

This kind of sneak attack behind the back was learned by Zhou Xuan from Kobe Bryant when he first fought the Lakers.

Randolph bent down to pick up the ball and threw it forward, and only Fisher chased back 2 to 1 in the front court. Zhou Xuan took the middle after receiving the ball, Kobe Bryant caught up from behind, Zhou Xuan passed the ball to the low post, Ellis received the ball and singled Fisher, turned around and shook out of the space, and made a layup with his left hand. 6 to 2.

THERE IS A BIG SPEED GAP BETWEEN THE TWO, AND ELLIS, WHO IS 191CM TALL, HAS A HEIGHT ADVANTAGE OVER FISHER.

In the next round, it was still Randolph who resisted in the low post, Marion changed the defense to block and dismantle, Kobe Bryant passed to the outside, and Wharton hung Bynum. Bynum forced Randolph and turned to score with a one-handed cricket. 6 to 4.

The Warriors attacked, and the players pulled away again. In previous games, Bryant could have defended the high post and let Fisher defend Azubuke or Morrow. Ellis started today, Kobe Bryant can't do this, Ellis's speed is something Fisher can keep up with, and the high position can only be handed over to the "old fish".

Zhou Xuan took the ball sideways and stretched out three fingers, gave his teammates a code, then turned around and took a step to the right with the ball, and his right shoulder shook to the left.

Fisher predicted correctly, but was blocked by Margeti who was mentioned in the middle, Zhou Xuan accelerated with the ball, broke through on the left side, and Wharton changed the defense and followed very closely from the side. Zhou Xuan didn't plan to get past Wharton, and made a quick stop to pass the ball to the middle, and Margeti squeezed Fisher away to take the ball and made a three-step layup. His steps were big, and in the second step he was under the basket, where his tense muscles jumped and he bumped directly into Gasol in the reasonable collision zone.

Gasol didn't jump up after being knocked and took three steps back out of the baseline, and Margeti threw the ball in with a small air movement. 8 to 4.

In the opening game, the Warriors suppressed the Lakers with the tactic of "one fat with four small".
