Zhang reasonably commented: "Zhou Xuan feels that he is no longer playing ball, but playing ball. He doesn't seem to care about winning or losing, just for the show. ”

Van Gundy also sighed, "The attack after the most is so beautiful, Kobe Bryant's face is ugly, today he spent most of his time defending Zhou Xuan, and was humiliated." ”

There are a lot of fans online who say about the game. Some people said, "Kobe Bryant's entry into the best defensive lineup is too watery, let Zhou Xuan pass casually." ”

There are also Komi who complained about Kobe, saying, "Zhou Xuan's bullying of veterans is a very tasteless behavior, and he has the ability to win the pinnacle Kobe?" These people have forgotten how hard Kobe Bryant played against the old Jordan who came back to the Wizards. It's as if if if Jordan doesn't blow up, the earth will stop.

Moreover, although there are rumors on the Internet that "the boss is 38 this year, whoever is black will die mother." "But Kobe Bryant is really not that old, it's just that his defensive attitude is average this season, and he likes to reach out too much.

In the second quarter, Zhou Xuan was rested, and the Knicks sent substitutes as usual. Pekovic and Anderson are paired on the inside, and Fields, Azubuuk, and Douglas on the periphery.

The hapless Evans, whose contract year was completely unreused, continued to sit on the bench and guard the water cooler.

Lakers bench Blake, Shannon? Brown, Barnes, Odom, Bynum.

Both sides did not have a high shooting percentage and fought hard to defend. The CCTV5 commentator talked about some records about the Knicks. "When Chamberlain played the Knicks, he set an all-time record of 100 points. There are also many stars who have scored high points on the Knicks' home court. Now they finally have the capital to set a record at their opponent's home stadium. Yu Jia said with a smile.

Zhang Li sighed: "It's a pity that Kobe didn't score points with Zhou Xuanbiao, he only scored 9 points in a single quarter, and only 3 of 11 shots." ”

Kobe Bryant didn't score points with Zhou Xuanbiao, but the shooting percentage was too low. It's easy to see a star go berserk, and the chances of two people breaking up are too small.

The "Zen Master" sat on the sidelines and studied how to deal with Zhou Xuan. He found that dealing with Zhou Xuan was equivalent to dealing with the entire Knicks. He will use his teammates to create opportunities for himself, using all external factors he can to increase the difficulty of the opponent's defense.

What Zhou Xuan did was to control the situation, not simply control the ball. When the opponent encounters the most uncomfortable situation, he will do it, just like hitting Kobe Bryant after the most difficult shot, he didn't open his mouth, and directly used his actions to make Kobe lose his cool. As the core of the perimeter defense, you shouldn't lose your mind. Once you lose your mind, the situation will take a turn for the worse.

Many people think that Zhou Xuan's personal ability is stronger than Kobe Bryant and James. Actually, it's not like that, it's just that the two rely too much on themselves. Especially Kobe, he doesn't think about the psychology of his opponents. All he thinks about is how he moves, how he throws the ball.

Zhou Xuan used the ball quotient to make up for the lack of his body, and when he practiced shooting, he could already do as much as those supermen with quality.

At this time, Zhou Xuan was sitting on the sidelines, not thinking about the game. He knew that Lu Dao had already scored 30 points, and he also knew that the opponent would definitely find a way to defend him when he played again. He put himself in Jackson's shoes and how to make the team defend if he was the head coach of the Lakers.

Before he knew it, he was in the realm of coaching. I remembered the few times he lost and he was blocked. The Heat's combined defense approach is the most effective. As soon as he broke through, he immediately contracted the defense, and at the same time, the perimeter wheel switched positions and tilted to one side, so that the Knicks could not quickly move the ball to the open space on the other side, and forced the pass was easy to miss.

There is also the possibility of letting him catch the ball on one side after he has the ball, and letting go of one person on the other side to make a rotation and wrap him. This approach can also make him frustrated, and he can't control his teammates' consciousness after passing, even if he sees obvious gaps.

There are two ways to solve the problem, one is that he does not enter the inside line, holds the ball on the periphery and attacks directly, and shoots three points or two points from a distance after shaking out of the space horizontally. The other is passing, which he usually does, because it is difficult to guarantee the efficiency of forced shooting on the perimeter, even if he can score a lot of points, it is in exchange for high shots, and the more points he scores, the harder it may be for the team to win.

The team with the highest score loses the game, and there may be fans who are excited, but those who know the ball will know that it is a cancer style of play, and Zhou Xuan doesn't want to do it if he asks his teammates to help pay for it. So he still plans to pass the ball first, and then run without the ball, he has to run to the point where the ball is easy for his teammates to see and maybe shoot. After receiving the ball, it forms a misalignment on the perimeter, and then breaks through in a small area. In this way, the Lakers' defensive line shrinks and comes back to the cost.

Five minutes later, the Lakers were just seven points behind. Bynum, Odom, and Barnes grabbed rebounds, and as long as the offense didn't score, the Knicks could only defend back.

Neither side called a timeout, Jackson had two timeouts in the first quarter, and D'Antoni thought the players could adjust themselves, and it was useless to call unless there was a substitution.

D'Antoni replaced Azubuuk for Zhou Xuan, and Pekovic continued to play on the inside, replacing Stoudamire with small forward Gallinari. The double defenders of Douglas and Zhou Xuan can also play counter-attacks and reduce Zhou Xuan's physical exertion on ball control.

The Lakers saw that Pekovic was still uncomfortable, and the inside line was replaced by Bynum, otherwise Gasol, who was not tough enough, would have to fight with Pekovic for muscles.

The Lakers attacked, Gasol received the ball in the low post, and Pekovic couldn't squeeze it at all, and passed to Kobe Bryant at 45 degrees, and Zhou Xuan went to the No. 2 position to defend the main defense.

Kobe dribbled the ball under his crotch to the right side, Zhou Xuan didn't waste any strength in front of him, the moment he leaned on, Kobe pulled the ball up, strode to the middle and turned around, this action was very coherent, plus his stride was large, Zhou Xuan couldn't keep up.

Kobe Bryant made a backward jumper, and Zhou Xuan jumped up to interfere and only touched his chin. Bryant's aerial action was beautiful, and the ball was hollow hit. 56 to 51.

"Magic" Johnson said: "The Lakers finally got close, and the home fans gave them applause. ”

Van Gundy said: "They still have to guard against it. ”

The Lakers perimeter guard only kept one Fisher, and Bryant defended Zhou Xuan. The person who dribbled the ball through the half court was Douglas, passing the ball to the weak side 60 degrees, Zhou Xuan received the basketball by running without the ball, Douglas immediately ran to the bottom corner, and the weak side suddenly became the strong side.

The Lakers compressed the defense, the overall defensive center of gravity contracted, and Odom followed Zhou Xuan after the blocking. Zhou Xuan dribbled under his crotch and changed direction and brought out the three-point line.

Odom had no choice but to follow out of the road, and he couldn't retreat at this time, otherwise Zhou Xuan would vote directly. Odom was out of the game, leaving Gasol alone on the inside, and Pekovic moving to the left. On Zhou Xuan's side, as long as he shakes out the space and sends it to the inside, it is a singles opportunity.

Zhou Xuan didn't pass, dribbled horizontally under his crotch to the middle belt, stopped sharply with the ball in his right hand, brought his left hand close, and his shoulders were flat. This move, Zhou Xuan has already practiced the essence of the Southern Shadowless Leg, which can deal with the scorpion warriors.

Most people feint by shaking their shoulders, so there are actually traces to follow, and if the shoulders don't move, the opponent doesn't know what he wants to do. Odom took a big step sideways, his left foot just touched the ground, Zhou Xuan changed direction and handed it to his left hand, took a step sideways to the left, and shot a three-point jumper.

Odom lost his center of gravity and could only stretch out his hand when he turned around, and the bottom line was Douglas, attracting a person, and no one came up to make up for the defense, and there was definitely an empty position as soon as he defended. The ball is in! 59 to 51. Zhou Xuan's personal 33rd point.

Jackson sat in the dugout and shook his head. With such a run, it was easier for Zhou Xuan to single Odom, and after a 6-minute break, he still felt great.

The Lakers attacked, Kobe and Odom blocked and coordinated to avoid Zhou Xuan, and Stoudamire changed defenses. Zhou Xuan turned his head to take a look, turned around and suddenly ran towards the front court of the Lakers, Odom was stunned and hurriedly followed, he didn't even dare to turn his head back, and the two ran through half the court one after another.

Kobe Bryant just brought to the low post, leaning on Xiao Si with his back and preparing to hit it with his back, and the audience was stunned.

Zhou Xuan slowly walked back, a smile on the corner of his mouth. Odom likes to do magical things on the pitch, such as passing the ball directly to the referee to his team-mates on the bench, and this time he was embarrassed. Running back to his own half of the court when attacking.

At this time, Kobe Bryant turned to the baseline and wanted to pull the rod for a layup, but Xiao Si pulled him down and sent him to the free throw line.

Van Gundy laughed, "What just happened? Zhou Xuan ran to the Lakers half court inexplicably, and Odom followed back, but the Lakers didn't concede the ball at all. ”

The camera gave a replay, and Odom chased Zhou Xuan as if he was running 100 meters, which will definitely become a funny tidbit after the game.

"Magician" Johnson shook his head and said: "Zhou Xuan is happy after running, it must be deliberate......"

Zhou Xuan did it on purpose, he wanted to see how nervous the Lakers players were about him. Odom didn't even have time to turn his head to look, and ran after him. At this time, Zhou Xuan determined one thing, the Zen master must have restricted him in arranging defense, and asked one person to be inseparable from him.

The task of controlling the ball fell to Douglas's shoulders, Zhou Xuan ran to receive the ball without the ball cover, and both interior lines blocked him. As long as the Lakers shrink, Zhou Xuan will take the ball out of the three-point line by himself to open up the ball.

Pekovic is the main screen, then stands under the basket to attract a man. The Lakers misplaced once, and Gasol defended it. Gallinari immediately hoisted the ball to the basket and Pekovic singled Artest, turned and hooked the ball in. It's not the main point of attack, and it can't be ignored yet.

Zhou Xuan also changed his style of play, not breaking through the basket, and "touching porcelain" when he was heads-up. After the dislocation, he relied on feints to get close to the inside player, took the initiative to find physical contact, and as soon as the opponent reached out, he quickly took the ball and jumped and bumped into it, and the referee had to blow a foul when the ball touched it, even if Zhou Xuan did it on purpose.

Odom and Artest each had one foul, the Lakers fouled four times in a single quarter, and Zhou Xuan was tripped by Fisher in the backcourt and went to the free throw line. In fact, Zhou Xuan deliberately bumped into Fisher's leg while running and fell to the ground. He did a very good job of protecting the ball, throwing the ball with both hands on the ground and not hurting his ankles or knees. Fake falls have long been his trick.

Zhou Xuan hit all 6 free throws. With two minutes to go, the Knicks replaced Anderson for Pekovic. In the last 41 seconds, Zhou Xuan couldn't make a jump shot, Anderson won the frontcourt rebound, and then passed Zhou Xuan to the bottom line and scored a backhand layup.

He scored 41 points at halftime and added four assists as the Knicks continued their lead at 71-60.
