Chapter 20 A Team Without Defects VS A Player Without Defects?

"Kobe Bryant made a mid-range shot against Ridgemond on the rock!"

"Complete the mid-pitch in the confrontation! Kobe Bryant is so decisive! Last season he couldn't have done anything like that. ”

"Kobe Bryant has transformed! His strength has taken him up a notch again! Now he doesn't have any loopholes. ”

"A team without a defect VS a player without a defect!?"

Magician and Collins shouted wildly in front of the microphone.

And the Jazz players on the court only have that decisive No. 8 in their eyes!

This is in?

It's too easy, although Richmond is not a top defensive player at the level of the defensive lineup, his physicality and veteran experience are there after all! Jerry Sloan was ready for Kobe to be able to beat Richmond, but he really didn't expect Kobe to beat Richmond in this way!

"Pass." Stockton calmly woke up his teammates who had fallen into surprise, and he was the first Jazz player to come to his senses.

Although Kobe Bryant is strong, but so what.

Jordan in the Finals has proven that as long as you score higher than the Lakers, then it is not a problem whether you can defend against Kobe.

And Stockton has confidence that the offensive firepower of the current Jazz Big Three is no worse than that of the Lakers. If you can't prevent Kobe, you can't prevent it, anyway, you can't prevent it last year.

Malone passes the ball to Stockton.

"Look at how well the Jazz are compatible."

"Will Jerry Sloan adjust their offensive tactics? With the addition of Richmond, what kind of changes will the Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics produce? ”

This is very curious about many people, Richmond's integration, if it is just one more projection point then it is undoubtedly extremely wasteful, if the Jazz's already excellent blocking and pick-and-roll tactics can be pushed up a level again, then the Jazz will definitely become an unstoppable team.

"It's coming! The first round is here! ”

"Signature blocking tactics, see what kind of changes will occur?"

Stockton holds the ball outside the three-point line, and Malone blocks it high!

Kobe Bryant and Big Ben defend both of them each!

One gear!

Demolition!

The tacit understanding between Malone and Stockton is simply natural, Malone turned into a big wall to jam Kobe, and then dragged Kobe Bryant with his right hand!

Forcibly to misplace!

Stockton smashed the ball underneath Big Ben, and a ground-bounced ball bounced into Malone's hands.

Malone singled out Kobe Bryant in the middle distance!

Meanwhile, Stockton and Richmond are in a diplomatic misposition at the three-point line!

Dazzled! Two people crossed two arcs.

Stockton pulls out, Richmond takes the opportunity to cut inside!

Malone hit Kobe Bryant, almost was broken, and he didn't force it, blocked Kobe Bryant sideways, and then directly stuffed the ball to Richmond.

Pull-up jump shot at close to mid-range, hit!

"It's coming, it's coming! This is the Jazz's new tactic, after Stockton and Malone block and dismantle, the ball carrier attacks on his own, and then the other two stars block each other to cover each other, and the ball carrier can play on his own, and he can't share the ball! ”

"Three superstars are linked together with a single tactic, and I believe there are many variations of this tactic. I already had in my head that Stockton was using Malone to block and shoot into the middle range, and Richmond and Malone were blocking and shooting from the wing. Malone received the ball and organized it high, Stockton hit the bottom corner, received the ball from mid-distance shots, and so on. Collins was amazed that the Jazz's tactics weren't complicated, but if the players executed them properly, they could play the tactics to the fullest.

"These tactics were also in the rudiments of Hornacek's time, but Hornacek's slow movement still allowed him to play more of a spot shooter."

Harris frowned, this athletic version of the Jazz blocking tactics is really a bit difficult to guard.

Bryant didn't say anything and directly advanced with the ball.

This ball he hoisted O'Neal high.

Malone came over as soon as possible!

That's the negative side of Big Ben's presence on the field, and O'Neal will be caught up in the frenzy.

"Drink!" But the big shark is not afraid of the bag at all!

The majestic body directly burst out with a strong force, pushing Greg Ostertag to the side, and then jumped to the basket, hanging Malone to score the ball.

"Fierce! It's too fierce! ”

"Big shark! Make waves! That's the role of the league's best center, and he's invincible when he has the fitness. ”

"Did you find that Shaq has more power, last year he was able to top Greg Ostertag, but Malone is together, Shaq's shooting rate will inevitably decline."

Stockton advances with the ball.

This time!

Kobe Bryant pressed directly all over the court!

Drive the Lakers to press!

Start pressing from the bottom line!

Directly bite Stockton!

"Looting! The Lakers are pressing! ”

"The whole court is pressing!! Kobe Bryant's full-court pressing! What are you kidding, they dare to press a team with three stars? ”

"Tear! There's no way for Stockton to get out of the ball! ”

"Big Ben blocked Malone's receiving route! Jones blocked Richmond's path to the ball! ”

"Faster! The Lakers' opposing players move faster! Be more positive! ”

"Bryant didn't finish the break! But Stockton was violated by eight seconds! ”

"I'd rather break the rules, Stockton didn't pass the ball, because as long as this pass goes out, it will definitely be broken!"

"Horror! Is the Lakers' defensive intensity so high? ”

Stockton's face was gloomy.

Forced to break the law for eight seconds!

That's a shame for a top point guard!

What is the situation with Kobe?

How can there be such a big improvement in defense?

It's power!

Speed and agility didn't change much, but after the power confrontation came up, Kobe's defense rose to the point where Stockton couldn't cope with it alone!

If you push one-on-one, you will be destroyed at least 5 times out of 10 advances!

This is unacceptable to the Jazz.

But Big Ben pegged Malone, and Jones pegged Richmond.

Who to count on?

Brian Russell?

Or Ostertag?

Before Stockton could figure it out, the Jazz's sideline ball was intercepted by the Lakers.

Malone passed the ball to Richmond, I don't know if it was not tacit enough, or Eddie Jones gave too much pressure, and the basketball did not control and slipped out.

Intercepted by Horry!

Horry advances directly with the ball!

Smash the ball into the hoop!

The basketball rebounded, and a vigorous figure appeared in the sky!

Bryant!

Peter Pan Kobe Bryant!

Pull the ball to the right, stretch and then hit the basket with one hand!

Mountains and tsunamis!

The Great Western Forum Arena is on fire!

In just a few rounds, the atmosphere in the Lakers arena was enthusiastic!

"Such a defense! Such a counterattack! It's too strong! Kobe's Lakers are too strong! Collins was shocked.

"Welcome to the Lakers' era." The magician ripped open his shirt and screamed.
