(194) Lake War (II)
The Rockets were lucky today, perhaps because Maddy was absent, and Kobe Bryant's desire to score without the opponent was not strong. Pen %Fun %www.biquge.info You must know that two days ago in the same arena, he scored 41 points against the Wizards.
But as the game deepened, Kobe Bryant began to try to take over the game. First, he received the ball on the left wing's back, and simply turned around and shot back to the basket, and the ball hit steadily.
On the Rockets' side, Yao Ming returned one by the inside line.
Kobe Bryant came to the right wing again, took two steps with his back to Jefferson, and it was still a turn-over jumper to the baseline, and! The two goals were the same, just in different directions.
Seeing that Jefferson was defending too hard, Ah Shuai replaced Tekoglu and Roy to give Jefferson and Reed a break.
"Kobe Bryant has gotten stronger." Jefferson sat down and gasped.
"Looking at the physique, this guy feels like he's getting a little wider than last year, he should have gained weight, right?" Reed shook off beads of sweat as well. The two of them took turns to defend Kobe, but they couldn't prevent it at all.
Tekoglu made a contribution when he came out, and a three-pointer widened the difference.
The Lakers came back or handed it to Kobe, who pressed down his center of gravity in the face of the tall old Te, and rolled over half of his body as soon as he turned over his shoulder. However, Bosh helped to defend in time, and Kobe Bryant forced a layup and missed. Yao Ming grabbed the rebound.
"Kobe Bryant in this state is no longer something that can be prevented by one person. Either go to the defense, or pray that he can't shoot. Curry said.
Yuanfei is secretly unhappy, there are not many top 3D players like Bowen who can defend Kobe Bryant, and Battier, who he has coveted for a long time, actually let his direct opponent Lakers get it. West, this old ghost is really harmful.
Bryant once again held the ball on the right wing, this time he chose to feint and shake and turn around and go to the middle, which was right in the hands of the Rockets. Yao Ming's arms were sealed tightly like a wall in one fell swoop, and Bryant forced a shot to miss.
"The weakness of the Lakers has not been fundamentally improved, that is, the offense is not disciplined, and they basically rely on singles." Yuan Fei pointed out the opponent's problem pointedly, "Unless they can revolve around Gasol's high ball as an axis, they are only a few players with strong individual ability, not a group." "This is easier said than done, in my previous life, Phil. Jackson can hold Kobe Bryant down and allow Kobe to hand over the ball to Gasol. You must know that D'Antoni, Scott, and Brown, who have won the best coach, have not solved this problem. Can Van Gundy, who is inferior in qualifications and abilities to Zen masters, do it?
At least not yet, and Bleche, who came off the bench for the Lakers, hit another jumper and missed the iron. The Rockets got the ball and launched a quick counterattack, Spann and Roy connected, and Roy scored a layup. The live broadcast camera was given to Coach Van Gundy on the sidelines, and judging from his expression, Van Bald was very dissatisfied with Bleche's casual shot.
Yuan Fei couldn't help but laugh secretly. Bleche has indeed made some achievements in the future, and at his peak, he also averaged 16+8 per game, which can be called a third-tier star. But this guy is a typical data brush, averaging less than 17 points per game, and actually has to use 15 shots, 4 more free throws and nearly 3 turnovers. The main reason is that his offensive choice is very poor, as a long man of nearly 7 feet, the basket shots account for about 1/3, a large number of shots are in the middle of the shot, and the shooting rate is only about 3%. Later, he couldn't get along in the NBA, so he simply joined the Xinjiang team in China. This type of player will not be seen from afar. In his eyes, Blecher is worth more than the unpretentious Amir. Johnson is much lower, and even less so than Marsin. Gortat too.
"By choosing Blecher, you can probably infer the level of Bath, novice fans." The corners of Yuanfei's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.
Odom's performance today was also very sluggish, this guy is characterized by a good bad game, it all depends on the mood. And Mutombo has no main offensive ability, and the Lakers' interior offense is basically paralyzed, so they can only be handed over to Kobe Bryant again. Kobe Bryant held the ball with his back, and his head shook as if he was about to break through, but he turned around and changed to the bottom line. Poor Turkoglu was deceived again, and seeing that Kobe was about to hit the basket, Yao Ming pounced on him and asked for a block. Bryant made a quick stop for a step-back jumper and the ball went in.
Soon Turkoglu was replaced again, this time with Roy as the main defence.
"This guy is so slippery, the center of gravity is moving sideways all the time. He's very threatening to turn left and right, so I always have to follow him and fall into his trap before I know it. Tekoglu concluded.
"It doesn't matter, he can't win a team alone." Yuanfei comforted.
"Maybe you can win a bad team like the Trail Blazers." Adelman quipped: "But a strong team like ours, Kobe Bryant can't handle it alone." ”
When they said this, they didn't expect to be slapped in the face soon.
Delon began to step up and take on the burden for Koby, who hit a three-pointer from Odom. Van Gundy nodded again and again, Chubby's basic skills are very solid, and his shooting is still relatively reliable.
The Lakers have newcomers, and the Rockets naturally have too. Roy's newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and he was tough against Kobe, although he missed the basket on horseback archery, but caused Kobe's foul. Roy made both free throws.
Kobe Bryant was beaten by a rookie, so he naturally wanted to get back on the court. But Battier was uninteresting and went up to help Kobe Bryant make a cover. Kobe Bryant was also stubborn, waved his hand to get Battier out of the way, and threw one at Roy, but unfortunately missed.
Roy is also commendable for his courage, and he came back to shoot a ball against Kobe Bryant and hit it!
"Bag Kobe Bryant!" Yuan Fei shouted: "He will definitely be strong on his own." ”
The Rockets players were very tactical and did not hesitate to surround them. Kobe Bryant has a traditional athlete-like stubbornness, if you single me one, I have to single it back. Who knew that the Houstonians didn't follow the rules, and a group of people came up and surrounded him in the middle, and Billups pulled the ball out with a quick hand.
"I'm mad at me!" Bryant was furious and ran back to defend in a frenzy.
Billups was very calm, and seeing that Kobe Bryant had turned on the rage mode, he didn't hesitate to give it to Roy. Anyway, Roy is a newcomer, so what can he do if he can't hit Kobe? There's no shame in that.
But Roy is really powerful, he forced two steps to hit a pull-up jump shot!
"This rookie is not simple, dare to compete with the department!" Kenny. Smith exclaimed, "No wonder the Rockets chose Roy, he's the real deal." ”
"The yellow-skinned newcomer who can bite with the Black Mamba, why don't you just call him the Yellow Mamba?" Barkley Road.
In this way, the Rockets widened the gap with a career-high 22 points cut by super newcomer "Yellow Mamba" Roy, and persevered to the end with a solid defense inside, and overturned the Lakers with a 12-point advantage away from home, winning 11 consecutive victories.
And Bryant's anger was quickly vented. In the home game against the Mavericks two days later, Kobe Bryant only played the first three quarters, scoring a career-high 62 points on 18-of-31 shooting! And the Mavericks scored only 61 points in the third quarter. In the end, the Lakers beat their opponents by 22 points.
When Yuanfei and Adelman saw this news, their faces were still a little feverish. Kobe Bryant really won a league powerhouse by himself. (To be continued.) )
