Chapter 486: Unlimited Fire Rights! The king of thirds!
"Fight defensively! The Lakers actually took the lead? Ma Fu wondered.
"Nope! It's not that the Lakers' defense is superior, Chicago's defense is obviously stronger, but Kobe Bryant's scoring efficiency is higher! Penny Hardaway in one word.
Bryant scored 4-of-13 points on 9-of-13 shooting in the first quarter.
Jordan was 4-of-8 from the field, with 10 points.
Jordan's shooting percentage was higher, but Kobe Bryant's score was 3 points higher than Jordan's!
The Lakers are also 5 points higher than the Bulls' total!
It's not that the Lakers' defense is better at all, although Bowen and Big Ben have exploded with defensive potential that they don't usually have, but compared to the old and spicy Bulls, their defensive system is still a little immature.
The only advantage is Kobe's three points!
The king of thirds!
The Magic recalled the scenes when Kobe Bryant broke the three-point record.
"Could it be that projection can really come in handy in a championship fight?" The magician was surprised.
"As long as it's accurate, why not." Penny Hardaway's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have found a new way to beat Jordan.
With the same shooting percentage, of course, the three-point shot is more efficient in scoring! And half as high!
"When the shooting rate of both sides is not high, if the three-point shot can maintain a 3 or 4 percent shooting rate, then it will definitely be a killer move."
"Kobe Bryant's three-pointers didn't shoot a lot in the playoffs, and he was covering up? Now is he finally going to tear off the shackles on his body and become the king of thirds again? β
"Three three-pointers in a single quarter doesn't look very scary, but if you can maintain this touch and shooting percentage in a game, then it will be difficult for the Bulls to accept!"
"Kobe Bryant, who shoots three points crazy under unlimited firing! It's scary to think about! β
"Well done!" The Lakers players and Kobe Bryant high-fived one by one!
"It's beautiful." Bryant also gave Bowen and Big Ben a thumbs up.
It was the top-notch defense of the two of them that slowed down the pace of the game. Otherwise, there is really no way to lead the team to an advantage with this three-point shooting rate.
"It's our turn." Horimo shook his hands, I was submissive when I played the Bulls starter, and I was going to be powerful when I played the bench!
"Come on, guys!" Old Curry tightened his shoelaces! Play!
"The morale of the Lakers is very high!"
"The bench Lakers sent a system of small fish, Curry, Colsi, Horry, and Campbell."
"On the Bulls' side, it's still Pippen with the bench."
"The chief Parrish, who played well in the last game, was still on the pitch."
The Lakers' bench lost in the last game, but in this game, Horry and Curry Sr. returned to the bench lineup and fought with Pippen to win or lose.
Pippen is still unstoppable on the bench, in fact, if there is no Kobe, the Lakers simply do not have a player who can defend Pippen, even if Bowen defends, it is easy for Pippen to average 20+ per game.
Pippen on the bench is dominant!
However, the projection of Curry and Horry Sr. still firmly maintained the hard-won advantage of the Lakers.
When the two sides came on the pitch, Pippen didn't chase the score back.
"Jerry West's mid-season trade is so powerful, he's Manager of the Year this year, and I can't imagine what the Lakers would be like right now without Horry and Curry Sr."
"What if he didn't trade for Kobe?"
"That's even more terrifying..."
Both starters are back on the field.
"Kobe Bryant voted! There is no room to attack after a few passes! Kobe Bryant shoots three points! β
"Yan shoots Pippen! Hit! Kobe Bryant's three-pointer goes in again! β
"Michael Jordan returned the color, but the score gap is getting bigger and bigger!"
"3 points is one more point than 2 points!"
"Kobe Bryant's hand feels hot, and he can still hit with the bag clip!"
"I can't stop it! Kobe Bryant's range is getting farther and farther! β
"In this game, is Kobe Bryant going to break the three-point record again?"
Hard!
Kobe's projection can only be described in one word, and that is hard!
Murder and heartbreaking!
It's just a Pippen cast!
Such a hit rate will not be very high, but it will be enough to suppress the bulls!
After all, this game is a slow-paced, low-scoring defensive battle!
Phil Jackson frowned, his nails tapping uneasily against the tactical board.
"This kid always has something to do with the unexpected."
Phil Jackson, who is not known for his on-the-spot response, couldn't figure out what to do for a while.
Kobe Bryant's three-point shot, he was mentally prepared to explode at some point.
But when that moment did come, Phil Jackson found that he was underestimating the defensive difficulty.
Do you want to take three or four steps from the three-point line to make Pippen press! Plus a person to go online bag clip?
No way? You can't play basketball like this, right?
His instinct told him that he should break the routine and would rather let Kobe Bryant break through the mid-range shot, or pass the ball. It's better than throwing three points like that.
But the deep-rooted values of basketball make Zen masters reluctant to defend a player in this way.
Such a defense simply does not exist! That's not the philosophy of basketball!
And Pippen, who was on the field, was also confused.
"Damn, my defense is really that soft?"
Watching Kobe Bryant's hand feel hotter and hotter, and the hit rate is getting higher and higher, Pippen is a little skeptical.
No, this kind of defensive pressing is enough to strangle the vast majority of players.
Do we need to do more?
Pippen gave it a try.
"Toot! AND ONEοΌ β
Confused!
Pippen was completely confused!
3+1οΌ
Kobe Bryant clenched his fist to his mouth and lifted his chin!
"Can't stop me! Batman didn't wear makeup today!? Go put on your tights! β
Bellow!
Bryant complained to Pippen.
Pippen was stunned, personal attacks?
But Pippen, who was not good at words, was suffocated.
"Damn it, Scotty. Abolish him! Rodman fanned the flames.
Rodman also tried to wrap up the defense, but Kobe's offensive range was too large. Coupled with Bryant's off-ball running, there is no way to follow all the time. Kobe Bryant's offense was so decisive after holding the ball, and he completed the action in an instant to complete the shot, without dragging the mud and water at all, which made Rodman's bag a lot more difficult.
"How many threes!? How many three-pointers has Kobe Bryant made so far? "The magician cheers!
"Three in the first quarter! The second quarter is four! Seven three-pointers at halftime! 27 points! A new Finals half-time three-point record! β
"27 points at halftime? How many points did Michael score? Michael is only 19 points! Kobe Bryant beats Michael Jordan! At least that's what this half of the game is! β
"That's accurate! How dare he use that distance as a conventional weapon? And how dare Harris let him vote like that? β
"Bold player! Daring Coach! β
"Kobe Bryant under unlimited firing rights! It's the king of thirds! β
