Chapter 360: Bao Heijiao VS Black Hand
After a pleasantry introduction from the Magic and Dantley, the game is finally about to begin.
Referee Bill Kennedy, a middle-aged black referee, tosses the ball high into the sky.
"Hah!" O'Neill roared with strength, and his two thick legs trampled the ground, like a prehistoric beast violently hammering the earth! Taking advantage of the rebound, he jumped high, and the 300-pound light weight seemed to be walking in the sky. With a big wave of his hand, he used a crushing way to extend the hand nearly half of Greg Ostertag's arm and flick the ball in the direction of the Lakers.
The basketball flew straight to Kobe, who caught it steadily and quickly advanced with the ball.
"Perfect jumping ball! O'Neal is in great shape and looks like he's completely free from the effects of a torn quadriceps muscle. "The magician felt that the violence of this jumping ball was even more terrifying than that of Abdul-Jabbar.
"Looking at Kobe, do you think of yourself when you were younger?" The magician turned to Dantley and asked.
"Some similarities, but nothing different." Dantley pursed his lips, he was still on the bench in college at the age of 18, and there was no way for an honest person to brag about Kobe Bryant like himself. Especially at present, the basketball emperor Wilt Chamberlain has released his words, Kobe Bryant is his successor, and Dantley is really embarrassed to compare with Chamberlain.
"It's coming! Kobe Bryant pulled up! Singled out! Heads-up Russell! ”
"The Jazz's forbidden area is crowded, O'Neal, Big Ben, Malone, and Ostertag are four strong men entangled with each other, hand pulling, shoulder resistance, and butt topping!
Men on men!
The exclusion zone is already a tormented and vicissitudes of life. Of course, the Lakers' offense can't hit the restricted area!
First goal! Kobe Bryant himself!
Everyone pulled away, and nine people on the court were all looking at Kobe. And thousands of spectators outside the stadium are also waiting to see what kind of performance Kobe Bryant will have.
Bryant was not in a hurry, dribbling the ball back and forth a few steps outside the three-point line. Grim eyes stared at Brian Russell as if they were looking at a dead man.
A little panicked! Now Brian Russell is a little panicked! He knew that he was not Kobe's opponent, but he didn't shoot and drove Kobe Bryant inside, and he thought he could still complete the defensive plan formulated by Jerry Sloan.
The pitch was very quiet, there was no provocation to each other, and the two teams were all too familiar.
Start! Kobe Bryant took a step sideways with the ball, and then hesitated to bow to the Buddha!
Brian Russell is pressing forward, and he wants to carry out this Sloane philosophy to the end!
The corners of Kobe's mouth rose slightly, since he let me protrude, then I will laugh.
"Kobe Bryant bursts into the middle distance! Hit a mid-range jumper before Malone stepped forward to help! With a beautiful shooting posture, a combination of stable ball control and projection, Kobe Bryant's projection skills in the middle range are by no means worse than Michael's! He is an all-time high distance shooter! ”
"The first goal Kobe scored, Jerry Sloan frowned! It seems that he was a little unhappy that Kobe Bryant was able to get rid of Russell so easily to complete the jumper. The same was true of Karl Malone, who grumbled under his breath. ”
"The Jazz's offense has begun! Stockton with the ball! It's not Kobe Bryant who is defending him! It's not Kobe! It's Bruce Bowen! Kobe Bryant walked in front of Jazz role player Brian Russell, worthy of the Silver Fox Harris, he wants to try to avoid Kobe's physical exertion in regular time, the Lakers' offensive burden in this game is completely on Kobe and Eddie Jones, the restricted area has become a meat grinder, Kobe and Eddie Jones If the two of them together can't score 50 points, I don't think the Lakers can win. ”
Stockton looked at the defender in front of him was Bruce Bowen, thought for a second, and decided to block and pick!
"Jazz's signature pick-and-roll tactic! Stockton and Malone are full of tacit understanding! ”
"One gear! Demolition! Two simple actions are used by the two elders of Utah, turning decay into magic! ”
"Blocked! The Lakers are not out of position! Big Ben and Bowen have a tacit understanding! The two of them communicated in an instant, and the defensive position was completed! Stockton's Bowen who appeared in front of him again after the block was a little surprised! ”
Damn it! These two guys, are they so good at moving their feet and breaking blocks? Stockton was indeed a little surprised, even the Bulls' Harper and Rodman were very difficult to defend their own blocking, and it was almost impossible to do it without changing the defense, but at least in this round of defense, the Lakers did it!
Never mind! Anyway, it's a natural misalignment, so it's a single!
Stockton decided to single Bowen!
Quick cross-step! Pressing the center of gravity! Break to the right!
The moment Stockton broke through, he sank his shoulders, clenched his left hand into a fist, and stealthily swung towards the weakness of Bowen's body, the ball.
"Rookie, feel the cruelty of professional basketball." Stockton is a prime example of a white-hearted player, and without these little tricks, he wouldn't have been a star of this caliber in terms of physical fitness. His hand movements, whether in offense or defense, are very much, some similar to the 58 gun brother in later generations, his height is limited, and if he wants to survive, he must start a little darker, and when he breaks through, he sinks his shoulders and gets started, these are very common tricks.
Bowen was silent, before the game, Kobe had reminded Stockton of what he would do, used his hand to pull away Stockton's fist, and then slid sideways to block Stockton's forward pace.
With precautions, Bowen's insidious cunning can certainly prevent Stockton's small movements. And Stockton couldn't shake off Bowen with speed and possession alone.
That's a bit embarrassing! Stockton continued to change direction, but Bowen seemed to have opened his eyes and accurately predicted every offensive line of Stockton.
Stuck in the air! 24 seconds are fleeting!
"Damn! Make a move! Vote for it! Stockton was originally going to throw the pot, oh no, the ball to Malone, but Ben was prepared and stepped forward directly to jam Malone's receiving route. The crowded penalty area is not only uncomfortable for O'Neal, but also for Karl Malone!
Stockton raised his left hand and put his elbow against Bowen's waist, taking advantage of the momentum!
"Shhh Bowen gasped, did he avoid this elbow or not? Avoid, then Stockton has plenty of room to shoot, and as a white point guard, Stockton's shooting is very trustworthy.
If you don't avoid it, then this elbow towards the waist is afraid that it will make Bowen urinate blood the next day!
The obscene Bowen still chose to avoid his edge and took a step back.
"Hah! A rookie is a rookie! Stockton sneered secretly when he saw this, and then bounced up and threw the ball!
Bowen looked panicked and rushed towards Stockton, but he didn't take off but didn't jump, and his defense didn't interfere with Stockton at all.
"Young!" Stockton complained, but when he fell, he found that the soles of his feet were not on the floor!
"Wouldn't it? Don't? Bryant's eyes widened.
"Huh!" The ball went in, and all the players who turned around and prepared to grab the board returned in vain.
"Ahh Stockton fell to the ground holding his ankles, rolling and screaming.
And Bowen is innocent!
He stared blankly at the referee as if he didn't know what was happening.
Referee Bill Kennedy was also a little confused.
He saw Stockton's small actions, but after all, he was a veteran star and bullied rookies, so he still had to give this face.
But how can you bully and bully, and Stockton is lying on the ground?
Everyone in the audience was confused, only Kobe Bryant looked at Bowen's foot.
The black foot that has scrapped countless talented stars.
