After the timeout, the Pacers played the kind of feeling that head coach Frank Vogel wanted, and Myles Turner scored two points against Bryant's defense. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

If Kobe Bryant is still a stunned young man, he will definitely carry it hard when he faces Myles Turner in a misplaced position.

But such an assumption is obviously impossible, and as a legendary superstar, he still cherishes his feathers very much, how can he allow a rookie to lose his face?

Kobe Bryant sent the ball from the baseline, and Hibbert gave him the racket again. Kobe Bryant's heart is right, because Myles Turner, a rookie, scored two points on his head, and he has a good face to get back on the court!

Bryant himself drove the ball forward.

Paul George, who is back at small forward, looks a little excited.

Just after halftime, Paul George came up to him – and perhaps the reason why he was so excited was to be able to play against Kobe.

Looking at Paul George who came up, Kobe Bryant had some mixed emotions in his heart.

Kobe Bryant claims to have 6 billion fans all over the world, and some of these fans have entered the NBA. Paul George and DeMar DeRozan in particular have achieved the highest results.

In the face of Paul George's defense, Kobe Bryant had mixed emotions, not only because the other party was his fan, but also because the other party, like him, experienced a serious leg injury, and was reimbursed for the entire season because of this injury.

It's just that Paul George, who is physically younger, can recover, while Kobe Bryant is starting to weaken and can't fully recover. Of course, there are also reasons why the parts of their injuries are different.

Gathering his emotions, Kobe Bryant began to attack. In this attack, he has to be cautious if he wants to get back on the field.

Although Paul George is a fan of Kobe, it happens to go all out to defend Kobe Bryant, which is the greatest respect for Kobe.

Although Kobe Bryant played very cautiously, his offense ended up in nothing, using his housekeeping skills - he turned his back and threw a backward jumper, and the ball he threw almost didn't touch the basket!

Guy because Paul George's defensive ability is just too strong!

In 2012-13, he was on the NBA All-Defensive Second Team, and in 2013-14, he was on the NBA-All-Defensive First Team!

He was able to cover the opponent's wing ace with his height and reach, and his strong athleticism was reflected in a number of statistics. His rebounding percentage is 10th in the same position, and his quick hands ensure a steal percentage behind Kawhi Leonard and Cory Brewer.

Kobe Bryant was not cheap in front of Paul George. When he finally threw the ball, because Paul George's height and reach were too threatening, Kobe Bryant had to increase the angle of his shot, and the result was that the ball almost didn't touch the basket.

wanted to get back on the field, and finally got such a result, and the huge gap made Kobe Bryant uncomfortable.

Myles Turner grabbed the backcourt rebound and threw it to Paul George, who successfully defended Kobe Bryant's offense.

Paul George was excited about Kobe Bryant, and after Kobe's back-to-back jumper was successfully prevented, he was so excited that every cell in his body trembled!

After defending Kobe's offense, he has to break Kobe's defense!

This is the best tribute to idols! Just like Kobe Bryant once did to Michael Jordan!

Paul George dribbled to the top of the arc and reached out to his teammates to signal: pull it all away! He's going to single out Kobe!

Because of the peculiarity of Paul George's identity, Kobe Bryant didn't feel like he was being left behind, but he also felt excited.

Although Paul George is very versatile, with good statistics such as points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, etc., if the requirements are raised a bit, his all-round ability becomes "all-incapable".

In terms of offensive ability alone, Paul George also has an All-Star level, but he can't compare to the likes of LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony.

His shots after dribbling are not particularly consistent, and his ball-handling skills are not very changeable, after all, his center of gravity is too high. Fortunately, he has good athleticism, and many times he can get to the basket without covering, or make a successful layup, or make a foul.

In the face of Kobe's defense, Paul George first tried with a few cross steps, and after deceiving Kobe to move a little, his left leg suddenly took a step back, bursting out with huge energy, and broke through to the right side with the ball.

Kobe Bryant reacted immediately, but his body no longer allowed him to teleport to delay the blockage. But it wasn't his style to give up easily, and despite the difficulty of moving on both feet, he tried his best to follow Paul George.

This time the Pacers' offense was Paul George singled Kobe Bryant, and for this, Paul George even specially pulled away his teammates. But for the Lakers, it was just a normal offense.

Paul George burst inside and the aggressive Hibbert was the first to step up. Hibbert still knows a lot about his old teammate's offensive routines.

There was a spoiler in the heads-up with Kobe, but Paul George was more excited, and the appearance of Hibbert made it more difficult for him to play this offense, but it also gave him a greater challenge.

There is a blockade in front and a pursuit in the back, although there are many dangers, but Paul George is scrappy!

In the face of Hibbert's reinforcement, Paul George first paused, then suddenly burst into the right. The meal together made Hibbert a little unresponsive.

While he was hurriedly moving to his left with a sliding step, Paul George suddenly changed direction in the middle of the journey, stepping from Hibbert's left to the right!

Paul George, who is tall and long-legged, changed direction with a European step, making it completely impossible for Hibbert to interfere with his layup.

But there's Kobe Bryant, who never gives up and chases after Paul George.

Hibbert's blockade gave Bryant a chance to catch up with Paul George.

After Paul George pretended to go to the right, but in fact changed direction to the left, Kobe Bryant also chased after him and jumped in stride!

After taking two steps with the ball, Paul George shook off Hibbert's defense, but the wind behind him made him know that he was still within the Lakers' defensive range.

However, there is no way to adjust at this time, if he is taking a step, he will definitely be immediately punished by the Lakers' home court referee for a walking violation.

It can only be hard!

The good news for Paul George is that his left foot is the one that has not suffered a serious fracture, allowing him to jump with all his might without any mental burden.

With a loud roar, Paul George exerted his left foot and his body soared into the air.

However, he used a big stride to change direction in the European step before, and the height of the air at the moment is far less than the usual height of the sky, even with the height and arm span of Paul George, it is quite reluctant to dunk at the current height of the sky. Coupled with the defender behind him, it is even more difficult to dunk!

However, Paul George didn't plan to dunk either.

After the jump, he and Kobe Bryant had a physical confrontation in the air, but Kobe Bryant jumped first and occupied air supremacy first; Paul George jumped off and missed the lead.

But as an attacker, Paul George has an advantage over Kobe. According to NBA rules, the moment he made physical contact with Kobe, Kobe violated his cylinder, in other words, a defensive foul.

Sure enough, not long after the two physically confronted, the referee's whistle sounded.

Kobe Bryant understood that his defensive moves were too big, and the referee's whistle should be his defensive foul. After figuring this out, he didn't hesitate, and the strength in his hand became even stronger.

Paul George held the ball in both hands and made a pull rod movement, but he was slapped by Kobe Bryant!

Fortunately, he was quite stable in his possession, and Kobe Bryant slapped this shot on his arm and did not take the ball off.

With no basket in sight, Paul George forced his waist before hitting the ground to gain a blink of an eye of airtime. And then, in the blink of an eye, Paul George threw it away.

Swish!

Hit the bull's-eye!

Kobe and Paul George laughed at the same time, and Kobe also affectionately slapped Paul George's buttocks, as if he was not the one who failed to defend just now and paid for the last foul.

However, the spicy ginger of the old ginger is not easy to match, Paul George rubbed his arm at the free throw line, but the numb feeling can not be removed, and the final free throw is also out of the basket.

Although Paul George's layup was a bit of luck and missed the free throw, judging from the results, his heads-up should be considered a success - both scoring two points and saddling Kobe Bryant with a foul.

At 11:10, after the Pacers took a timeout, they scored four points in a row to overtake the score.

Kobe Bryant first failed to attack, and then received a foul on the defensive end, and in the two rounds of this offense and defense, he was considered a complete defeat.

Unwilling to fail, of course he will not give up like this.

After holding the ball again and advancing to the front court, Bryant also signaled his teammates to pull away.

To be honest, Kobe Bryant is not as good as it was back then, and he failed to make it in the last offense. If Paul George continues to defend hard, then Kobe's offense is a bit hanging this time.

Yi Feng made up his mind to assist the boss Kobe.

He paid attention to Kobe's movements at any time, and after Kobe failed to break through and turned into a stop-and-go jump shot, Yi Feng immediately rushed into the inside!

He felt that the ball should not go in, and after rushing to the inside line, he saw that the ball thrown by Kobe Bryant hit the iron.

Jumping high and grabbing the rebound first, Yi Feng immediately threw the ball to Kobe.

And Paul George, after interfering with Kobe's shot, turned back to the inside to grab the rebound, just giving Kobe a chance to open the spot.

Bryant received a pass, stepped back from the three-point line, ignored Paul George, who was rushing to save, and hit a cold-blooded three-pointer.

At 11:13, Bryant helped the team regain the lead.

In the words of Lakers home commentator Bill McDonald, "This is Kobe Bryant, this is the burning of his indomitable soul!" ”

As the commentator of the Lakers' home court, McDonald's commentary naturally has an extremely strong emotional tendency. However, Kobe Bryant hit this three-pointer, which did allow him to temporarily pull back a game and save face in the direct confrontation with Paul George.

Of course, the auxiliary role of Yifeng is also indispensable. If he hadn't won the frontcourt rebound, he wouldn't have directly let Kobe Bryant's assists come out.

The next few minutes were all bullfighting time between Kobe Bryant and Paul George.

Although Paul George returned from a serious injury, he seemed to be reborn from the fire, and his condition has not diminished at all, and he is at his peak; And although Kobe Bryant is not in the wane, it is not far off. In these few minutes of bullfighting, Paul George scored 6 goals, while Kobe Bryant only scored 3 goals, which is half that of Paul George.

At 24:19, when the Lakers were trailing by five points, Byron Scott interrupted Bryant's bullfight with Paul George and asked for a timeout.

Although in the eyes of fans, the hand-to-hand fight between the two stars made them very enjoyable, but from Scott's point of view, Kobe Bryant was at a disadvantage in the bullfight, which directly led to the team's score falling behind.

Taking a step back, he was merciful that he didn't force the bullfight between Kobe Bryant and Paul George before it began.

Glancing at Kobe Bryant, who was a little out of breath, Scott sighed slightly in his heart, sure enough, people can't accept old age. With more than four minutes left in the first quarter, Scott simply switched to the bench lineup and let Bryant sit on the bench to rest.

After the timeout, the Lakers switched to a mixed bench lineup, and Yi Feng continued to stay on the court and lead the bench lineup's offense. On the Pacers' side, because they didn't get to the regular rotation time, they didn't replace a number of main players.

Pacers head coach Frank Vogel couldn't understand Scott's lineup, at this time the Lakers were the lagging side, and they took the initiative to seek a change of lineup.

But looking at the Lakers' "double-short" interior line consisting of Blanton Buss and Larry Nance Jr., Vogel feels a little inexplicable. On their side, Myles Turner and Ian Marcinmy have an absolute height advantage, do the Lakers want to play a small lineup?

In fact, Scott's idea is very simple, he just wants the main players to rest more.

Kobe Bryant and Paul George bullfight, then, the physical exertion is a bit large; And Hibbert, who played too aggressively tonight, could see him actively supplementing the defense every time he defended, and the physical exertion was even more exaggerated.

Scott didn't want to see the main players on his side fall tired before they played in the fourth quarter, so he changed to the bench lineup in advance.

As for why Yi Feng still stayed on the field, the reason is also very simple. During this time, Kobe Bryant has been attacking with the ball, and Yi Feng has only played auxiliary at most, and his physical strength has hardly been consumed. Let him play with a substitute lineup, it is not a burden for him.

And now that the team is lagging behind, if you want to catch up with the score, you naturally need to rely on the highest and most stable players in the team to stay on the field. (To be continued.) )
