Chapter 537 [Single Section 30+]

"Magic" Johnson said depressedly: "The goal of the Lakers this season is only to successfully defend the title, but it may be difficult to defend the title based on their defensive intensity." Playing the Spurs, the Mavericks, and the Heat didn't have any advantages. They couldn't defend themselves against the Knicks' offense today, and they were just one person...... Zhou Xuan's resolute shooting, the high hitting rate is scary, too accurate. ”

Van Gundy said: "When he played the Nuggets, Zhou Xuan scored 66 points, and if the Lakers don't cover it, maybe he will break his career scoring record again." He is also a convulsive player, once he finds the feel of how to cast how to have. ”

D'Antoni high-fived him as he came off the pitch in celebration. "Zhou, well done."

The players came together and D'Antoni made tactical changes. Ryan was rested. Danilo stepped into the No. 4 position, strengthened his defense against pick-and-rolls, and accelerated his offense. Corunna (Azubuuk) came on and waited on the perimeter with Wesley to open up space. Danilo moves 60 degrees on both sides, without attacking with the ball, opening up space and responding. Amare blocks. week, this game you can play as much as you want. ”

"Please, pass it to me, I won't disappoint you." Zhou Xuan looked at his teammates and said, "Everyone shouts together, you will win!" ”

"Victory!"

This time, D'Antoni hopes that Zhou Xuan can attack from start to finish and create an incredible record. Previously, only Kobe Bryant went wild at Madison Square Garden, and now they want to win it back. Make a mark in Los Angeles.

When he was on the court, "Zen Master" Jackson advised: "Follow Zhou Xuan, let others shoot easily, and don't let him shoot, and pay attention to the side defense." ”

The Lakers continued the triangle offensive strategy, allowing two interior lines to block Kobe Bryant, Kobe Bryant and Gasol on one side to ensure the offense, Artest did not need to focus too much on the offensive end, he just waited for the opportunity to shoot in the bottom corner, and then solid defense.

The Lakers also changed two people, Blake came out to replace Fisher, this is to change someone who is faster and Zhou Xuan. In the 2008-2009 season, many people said that Blake and Zhou Xuan were very similar. Now Zhou Xuan is far superior to Blake, as he gets older, he is faster, and his confrontation ability is stronger than Blake. Looking at the defensive two, it is not at the same level at all. In order to prevent a breakthrough, Odom also replaced Bynum.

The Lakers' change also made the Knicks happy. Regardless of whether Gallinari is struggling to defend against Bynum or Gasol, he was going to go around the front, and it was much easier to defend against Odom.

Odom in the middle blocked, Kobe Bryant broke through with the ball, and Gallinari switched defenses to interfere. He played the No. 4 position to defend the breakaway better than Anderson. Bryant passes to Gasol, who singles out Stadamyre.

Gasol dribbled to the right low post, turned to the middle, and then turned back to the baseline hook hand out, he felt very average today, the rebound was rushed down by Odom, and the second offense scored with one hand to hit the cricket, and now the basket is relying on Xiao Si alone, and the defense is weak. 18 to 16.

The Knicks attacked, and Blake defended Zhou Xuan. Zhou Xuan gave the ball to Gallinari in the middle of the court, and then the middle and Stadameyer shook off Blake without the ball. Azubuuk ran to the bottom left corner, Matthews moved 60 degrees to the left, and the right corner was empty.

It's a simple run that players can easily do well, not trying to create open shots, but just allowing the star to get better misplaced singles opportunities and dribble space. Zhou Xuan went to the baseline, and Gallinari sent the ball over Artest's head.

Zhou Xuan catches the ball frame, and Gasol changes defense. Zhou Xuan shook his way and changed direction to 45 degrees, and Blake bypassed the coverer to catch up, forming a trap. Zhou Xuan jumped up and distributed the ball to the middle, and Stoudeyer was empty.

Of course, Xiao Si will not miss this kind of opportunity, receiving the ball and making a high jumper and hitting it steadily. 20 to 16.

In the next three rounds, the Knicks were all "Hawks offense" routines, Zhou Xuan ran to the weak side without the ball to receive the ball, attracted the bag and passed, and sent an assist, and a ball Stoudeyer attracted Odom to switch defenses and give the ball to Matthews, who shot three points in the bottom corner. Only Azubuk, who had just come on the pitch, had not warmed up and missed a goal. The Lakers played poorly after the timeout, with Odom, Kobe, and Gasol taking turns to shoot and not score.

In the next round, the Lakers finally had a chance to cover the ball several times, and Blake received an assist from Kobe Bryant and hit a three-point shot on the right side. 25 to 19.

Zhang Li said: "The Lakers are holding Zhou Xuan, and the opportunity for others is here again." These few rounds have already declared the Lakers' strategy a failure. Now the Knicks offense is perfect, all five people can shoot, they can play the position and run and shoot, and they are all very fast. ”

Yu Jia said: "In this way, at most, it is difficult for Zhou Xuan to score, and he can also give assists." ”

As soon as the words fell, Kobe Bryant forced a layup after blocking and dismantling, Stodammire won the rebound, and the Knicks counterattacked. He first passed to Gallinari, who gave it to Azubuk.

Azubuk ran wildly across the half to avoid Gasol and distributed the ball to Zhou Xuan in the middle. Zhou Xuan dribbled the ball to the low position on the right side, took a step against Blake with his back, turned to the middle and attracted Gasol to block again, and the ball was distributed to Azubuuk. This time Azubuike didn't waste the opportunity and hit an open three-pointer. 28 to 19. Zhou Xuan's third personal assist.

Assistant coach Brian? Xiao shouted at the court for joint defense and gestured, he couldn't continue to wrap Zhou Xuan in the next round, and the score might be further expanded after a while.

The Lakers attacked, Odom and Kobe Bryant blocked, and after a few passes, Odom received the ball in the low post on the left side and singled Gallinari, turned around and scored a jumper. 28 to 21.

The Knicks attacked, Zhou Xuan brought to the frontcourt, glanced at Gallinari, and suddenly pulled three points in the middle. The ball was very simple, Blake was in front of him, 191CM tall could have interfered, but he lowered his center of gravity, and the bounce was not very good, Zhou Xuan shot to avoid the block, and the ball was deflected.

The Lakers attacked, Artest didn't score a jumper, the Knicks counterattacked quickly, Zhou Xuan received the ball in the frontcourt, and he shot the ball outside the three-point line on the left side, and he didn't even have a teammate to grab a rebound. The standard German 7-second run. Blake tried his best to seal his eyes, but he couldn't block it. The ball smashed the rebound and went in. 31 to 21. Zhou Xuan's personal 21st point.

A minute later, the Knicks counterattacked again, Zhou Xuan took the ball on the left side and made a "worship Buddha" feint, Blake was worried that he would grab the shot, stepped forward to interfere, Zhou Xuan broke through successfully, and scored in the middle of the stop. 23rd individual score.

The Lakers hurriedly changed Kobe Bryant to defend, Zhou Xuan changed to block and dismantle with his teammates, and ran without the ball to receive the ball in the bottom right corner. Zhou Xuan shook a shot, passed Kobe Bryant and dribbled the ball into the three-point line, and scored a 45-degree emergency stop jump shot. 25th individual point.

Zhou Xuan's three-point shot in the bottom corner was not allowed, Kobe rushed up to block it, and Zhou Xuan knew that Kobe Bryant had not studied him enough, and he didn't look at the scout's information very carefully, and it was better to let him shoot than to be shot.

In less than two minutes, Zhou Xuan broke through with the ball, causing Odomla to foul, and the Lakers had four fouls in a single quarter, and he was sent to the free throw line, hitting both free throws and scoring his 27th point.

The Lakers also scored a lot of goals, and they blossomed more, but Zhou Xuan was too fierce and led the team to maintain a 10-point lead. 39 to 29.

After this goal, the Zen master asked for another timeout, and he couldn't bear it anymore. There are many spectators at home who cheer for Zhou Xuan under the leadership of Chinese fans, which is not like the Lakers' home stadium. Even if you win, it's humiliating to let the opposing star score high at home. Jackson didn't want to suffer a humiliating defeat before he retired.

Yu Jia said: "There is 1 minute and 45 seconds left at the end of the first quarter, Zhou Xuan may be able to break the NBA single-quarter scoring record, I checked, and the most single-quarter score among the active players is Anthony who plays for the Nuggets." He scored 33 points in the third quarter of the Nuggets' 116-105 comeback win over the Timberwolves on December 11, 2008. The highest-scoring 'Iceman' George in history? Gervin also scored 33 points. Zhou Xuan only needed two more three-pointers to tie this record. ”

Zhang Li said: "It depends on how the Knicks play after the timeout, and they can create opportunities for Zhou Xuan's double cover." ”

Fans have left messages on the Internet, and now Sina Live and Tencent Live are also very lively. People want to see how Zhou Xuan "became a god" at Staples Arena, and this seems to be his blessed land. The highest points in the playoffs were also scored here, and the Warriors eliminated the Lakers in that game to advance to the Finals.

Today, Zhou Xuan's play is even crazier, although the Lakers continue to deploy troops, whether it is Fisher, Kobe or Blake, they have all become the stepping stones for Zhou Xuan's solo dance.

After the timeout, the Lakers lowered the tempo of the offense and let Gasol on the inside take the lead and the outside players quickly returned to defense.

This did work, Kobe Bryant defended Zhou Xuan's perimeter shot, as soon as he broke through, Artest followed, and the other positions relied on the rotation to change positions, forcing Zhou Xuan to pass. This shows the determination of the Lakers to let others score rather than defend against Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan didn't make a strong throw, he shared the ball twice, but his teammates were also addicted to watching him perform, and they didn't even seize the opportunity to score. It wasn't until the third round that Matthews broke through Blake and scored on the right side jumper.

The Knicks had 21 seconds on their last offense. Zhou Xuan took the ball to control the rhythm, and faced Kobe Bryant on the periphery. His teammates pulled away and he began to dribble. Zhou Xuan played RAP music in his head, and it took ten seconds to do a "basketball hip-hop dance", turning around and dribbling under his crotch were very well connected, full of provocation. Especially the dribble under the crotch with his back to Kobe, it's too arrogant.

He practiced when he was not working, because Colo? Moretz likes it. Kobe Bryant was angry, and he didn't care about the rhythm, and rushed up to steal. Zhou Xuan used an irregular turning action to pass Kobe Bryant and broke through on the right side.

Odom made up for the defense, and Pekovic, who had just come on the court, not only did not wait for the pass under the basket, but went out to block and dismantle Zhou Xuan. Zhou Xuan ran to the bottom corner of the right side, seeing that the time was almost up, he bent his knees, jumped up, and made a quick shot with three points in the bottom corner. Bryant caught up on the side and jumped too late, and the ball flew to the basket.

This is not a position that Zhou Xuan is good at, but today's hand is too smooth, and he also entered, and he scored 30th points. The Knicks ended the first quarter with an 11-point lead at 44-33.
