Chapter 344: Retreat from the clouds!

"It's too high! Kobe Bryant unexpectedly threw away Payton and went inside! It's an excellent defensive anticipation! ”

Kobe Bryant advanced with the ball, and Glove Payton caught him in the first place! Two people are entangled! ”

"Kobe Bryant didn't stick to the ball at all, didn't try to fight Payton in his own half, and passed the ball to Eddie Jones as soon as possible, a smart decision."

"Eddie Jones didn't dribble, he stood up in midfield and took advantage of his height advantage to observe the situation in front of Jose Hawkins. The Lakers are going to slow down their position? ”

"Nope! Eddie Jones passes the ball back to Kobe! Bryant shook off Payton and received the ball in the frontcourt. ”

"Kobe Bryant confronts Payton! Singled out! Pull away, everybody! It's a one-on-one duel! It's a collision between men! It's a matchup between the superstars who decide the game! Whether or not Bryant can gain an advantage over Payton is related to the progress of the whole game. If Kobe Bryant scores easily, it means that the SuperSonics are wrong to use Payton's tactical strategy of defending Kobe Bryant, and if Payton puts Kobe down and lets him play iron, then the Lakers' sharpest offensive arrow will be frustrated! ”

Kobe Bryant stared straight at Payton, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Kobe Bryant has never been a big-eyed person, and the basketball court is his criterion.

Like provocation?

This game is going to be your nightmare for the rest of your life.

Hopefully, you won't regret your provocation and make you lose face under the gaze of so many home fans in Seattle!

Kobe Bryant is no longer the skinny kid he was at the beginning of the season, and although his strength confrontation is not as good as the league's first-line guard, at least he will not be in a crushing state.

And in such a balance of power! Kobe Bryant's vast arsenal has countless ways to score goals!

That's right! Gary Payton's defense is historic, but isn't Kobe's offense historic?

The advantage of offense is always greater than that of defense!

Bryant shuttled the ball back and forth from his crotch, his shoulders trembling slightly as the rhythm changed.

"This way!" Payton watched Kobe's shoulder movements, and instantly took a small step towards a right slide.

"I guessed wrong." Kobe Bryant smiled slightly, accelerated past the other side, and any point guard in the league would definitely not be able to keep up with Kobe after the first step was out of position.

Gloves Peyton can!

Payton's ankle twisted into an exaggerated angle, and the toe sneaker exploded with a screeching sound against the ground, and the shoe and the floor almost collided with a string of sparks, and the upper body twisted at the waist to force the defensive position back.

Kobe Bryant was not surprised that Payton's defense was attributed to Peyton, and in the last game, Payton used such incredible defensive ability to defend him by only 11 points! Career-low score!

In the face of Peyton, it can be said that it is a dream to want one-on-one, face-to-face and not rely on anyone to complete the breakthrough! This is also the origin of the term glove.

Kobe Bryant's certainty of breaking through Payton is only 3 percent! And after succeeding with this 30% chance, Kobe Bryant will have to face Kemp's supplementary defense! Rain man Shaun Camp is by no means just a dunk player, Kemp's defensive style is very aggressive, exaggerated bounce and height and arm span, making his defense extremely aggressive. Not only the block, but the picture of Kemp using explosive power to complete the pass and intercept is also almost every game.

So it's useless to hit inward! Kobe Bryant has already experienced it in the last game, because of the presence of Payton, the scoring efficiency of the breakthrough is lower than against Houston!

Kobe Bryant's upper body leaned forward slightly, but he received the ball in his chest and abdomen in his hand!

Push forward hard with your right foot, and stride with your left foot to jump beyond the three-point line!

Step back!

The step-back step is not an exclusive trick for bearded Harden and Uncle Drew!

Kobe's step back is also perfect!

There are some differences between the step-back steps of later generations and the traditional step-backs used by most frontguards today. Harden, Irving, Lillard, and other new-age defenders often take a step back in the middle of the road, and Harden sometimes jumps two steps. Such a step back is actually closer to a back step!

And early Kobe, Pierce, Maddy's step-back was one-on-one. Pretend to press the center of gravity forward, followed by a step backwards.

Bryant's stepback in the face of Payton was very large, and his stepback also learned from the late guards, using the bounce to travel in the air strongly!

Immediately after landing with both feet at the same time, Kobe Bryant had already jumped outside the three-point line when he landed, jumped with both feet at the same time, and slowly threw the ball in the air!

Peyton's mouth opened wide.

This!

Jumping so far?

Basketball in an arc!

Three-point hit!

Kobe's icy eyes swept to Payton and Kemp.

Now that the breakthrough is completely blocked, let's try my three points!

Kobe Bryant hit 12 three-pointers in a single game, and his single-game three-point shooting record of 12 three-pointers has also been maintained for a very long time.

Until a certain elementary school student threw 13 on a whim.

Until a certain Beijing gentleman threw in 14 ......

At least now, Kobe's hands are warm, and his three points can kill!

"Kobe Bryant hit a three-point shot! Maybe he's found the best way to deal with Payton and Camp? "Thompson Sr. is eye-catching, Kobe Bryant's offensive options are really too rich, although Kobe Bryant's average of 4.3 three-point shots per game this season is not the most in the league, and the three-point shooting rate of 38.3% is not outstanding. But Kobe Bryant always has a critical moment, a three-point kill or a three-point performance that is too far away to score a three-point performance, Kobe's three-point is like a Pandora's box, you never know what's in it until you open it.

"Did you see that backward jump!? God forbid! If I had done it, my ankle would have been broken, how did Kobe Bryant manage to stabilize his center of gravity and shoot after such an exaggerated move? ”

"This talent is one thing, Kobe Bryant must have been practicing repeatedly in private, and the last time I saw his step-back movement, the range of movement was far less exaggerated and amazing than it is now!"

"Meng! It must be blind! ”

Peyton muttered in his mouth, constantly making mental hints to himself. The significance of this three-point shot is by no means as simple as three points, which means that the SuperSonics' defensive arrangement for Kobe Bryant has completely collapsed!

"Gary, I don't think he's blinded." Kemp looked at Kobe's cold eyes, a little weak.

"Nonsense! It's blind! If you have the ability, you can get another one! Glove Peyton roared! It's not impossible to defend the three-point shot, Payton can stick to Kobe Bryant. But then Kobe's breakthrough success rate will be high and scary!

And in this game, George Karl's defensive arrangement is all about blocking Kobe's breakthrough! Domino effect! At this time, it is very likely that the result of changing the defensive strategy is that the supersonic players on the field are not executed properly, resulting in the collapse of the whole line of defense!

And all of Payton's expectations were ruthlessly broken by Kobe.

"In! Bryant used an exaggerated step-back step again! Soar through the clouds! Three points and more! 6:0! George Karl opted for a timeout! ”
