Jumping ball is as simple as drinking water for O'Neal, and since he entered the league, jumping ball has rarely been lost.

The basketball was given to Gary Payton, who dribbled the ball through the half court with Lu Fei's interference.

After half-time, he immediately passed the ball into O'Neal's hands on the inside, and all the players began to run to clear the assistant defenders around O'Neal.

Collison didn't leave, he would rather let go of Medvidenko than help Oku defend O'Neal.

If you rely on Oku to defend O'Neal alone, it is better to send points directly.

Oku is too hard.

O'Neill's powerful power squeezed Oku was quite uncomfortable, and he could only try his best to resist O'Neill, but in the face of absolute power, everything seemed so fragile.

O'Neal saw Collisson's help defense, dribbled directly to the other side, and instantly came to the basket, a small hook hand, and the basketball crossed the air in an elegant arc and fell into the basket before Collison pounced.

2:0

Everyone only knows that O'Neal is physically strong and constantly dunks in the game, but only when you really defend him can you know that he also has delicate feet and excellent hook skills.

The only thing that could be a mess is a free throw.

Collison signaled that he was slow to help defend, and Oku patted his ass, in fact, everyone knows that this ball has nothing to do with whether the co-defense is not co-defended, O'Neal wants to score, and it is really difficult to defend.

Yu Jia couldn't help but sigh: "O'Neill is a real master player, his turning and his strength have an extremely great effect, whether it is attacking himself or as a containment...... Supersonic launched an attack, Lu Fei did not choose to force Gary Payton, but called a cover, and it was Collison who blocked him, and he broke through! He broke through between Medvidenko and Payton, what was Devin George doing? He didn't make up the defense, he was hesitating, Lu Fei broke through to the elbow area, and it was O'Neill inside...... Lu Fei didn't make a layup, he passed the ball and gave it to Sean Battier in the bottom corner, Battier made a three-point shot and hit! ”

Devin George relaxed his defence on Battier when he hesitated, which gave Lu Fei the chance to pass the ball.

Zhang Weiping said with a smile: "Lu Fei is very smart with this ball, and his awareness of this ball is very good!" He immediately spotted Devon George's defensive holes and distributed them to Battier in the bottom corner, and it seemed that he believed in Battier's shot. ”

The score is 2:3

The Lakers attacked, and this time the basketball passed to Kobe's hands, but it was not Ray Allen who defended Kobe, but Battier who just hit a three-pointer.

Kobe kept trying to walk, and his shoulders kept shaking, but Battier was unmoved, and his big hand kept covering Kobe's face.

This made Kobe very uncomfortable, his eyes were covered, not to mention the basket, and even his teammates couldn't see it.

He lowered his center of gravity, dribbled back a step under his crotch, and Battier chased a step forward, and at the moment when Battier raised his foot, Kobe Bryant directly changed direction and stuck half of his body and burst past his left.

Battier hurriedly retreated, only to see that Kobe had jumped up.

Step-back jumper!

Battier also jumped, he didn't think about blocking the ball, he just covered Kobe Bryant's eyes, but unfortunately his jump was still a little late, Kobe Bryant had already shot before he pounced.

The arc of the basketball in the air is not very high, but it still falls steadily into the basket.

4:3

"It's worthy of Kobe, the ball shook twice on the basket, and it still went in." Zhang Weiping sighed.

There was a burst of cheers from the fans at the scene, accompanied by inconspicuous boos, which is the case with Kobe Bryant now, even at home, there will still be fans who will boo him.

McMillan applauded Battier on the sidelines, and Battier's defense was already very good, allowing McMillan to see a significant improvement in the team's defense.

Whether it's Battier, Lu Fei, or Ray Allen, they all have good defense, and the SuperSonics will be one of the best teams in the league in the backcourt.

……

Ray Allen took advantage of Oku's cover to dismantle outside the three-point line, O'Neal had no intention of chasing it out, Kobe Bryant was blocked behind and couldn't get out, Lu Fei passed the ball easily, and Ray Allen received the ball and shot three-pointers.

Three-point hit.

Kobe Bryant's brows were furrowed, he hated O'Neal's relaxation of the outside players, so he would no longer expect others to change the defense in the next defense, and he tried his best to bypass the cover that he could bypass.

Ray Allen was very uncomfortable by his defense.

When he walked past Kobe Bryant's side, he cursed and said a lot of trash talk.

The two of them clashed in a training camp before entering the league, and every time they met each other over the years, Kobe Bryant would be ruthless in defense.

Ray Allen felt a lot of pain.

……

In the next few offenses, Oku and Battier's three-pointers were deflected off the basket, and the rebounds were undoubtedly picked up by O'Neal, and in the other half, due to O'Neal and Kobe's strong scoring ability.

The scores of the two teams were gradually pulled apart.

With just over a minute to go until the end of the first quarter, the SuperSonics trailed the Lakers by seven points.

22:29

McMillan called a timeout, he now has a bit of a headache, the team's defense on the inside is too hard, O'Neal's power makes Oku and Collison useless.

And on the offensive end, all counting on Lu Fei's breakthrough and Ray Allen's three points didn't help.

Ray Allen gasped for breath, Kobe Bryant's defense against him just now was like an iron bucket, so he didn't get rid of it a few times after fighting his life.

McMillan glanced at him and knew it was time to come off the bench.

He gestured to Korver, who was sitting on the sidelines, "Kyle, get ready. ”

Collison's physical strength was also greatly consumed with the back and forth pinching, and McMillan could only sweep his gaze to the bench, and finally fell on Wang Zhizhi's body, "Wang, you should also prepare." ”

Wang Zhizhi was stunned, he didn't expect his turn to play so soon.

At this time, Lu Fei suddenly stood up,

"Lu, what's wrong?" McMillan asked.

Lu Fei hesitated for a moment and said, "Coach...... Can you, borrow your tactical board......"

He couldn't remember how long he hadn't said it.

The last time I said it was when the Huskies said it to Romar.

“……”

McMillan handed the tactical board to Lu Fei, who dragged a chair over and asked his teammates to gather around.

"When I get on the court, I'm going to speed up the pace, Payton is getting older, and he won't be able to keep up with the speed when he pulls up, and when the time comes, everyone runs, Battier you sink in the bottom corner, and the others find the area they are familiar with and shoot when they have the opportunity." Lu Fei drew the curve of everyone's running position on the tactical board.

"Once you fall into the position, Dazhi, you are stuck in the elbow area, Medvedenko who defends you is a paper tiger, you have no problem hitting him, hit him with your foot, once O'Neill assists in defense, you go to Oku's position as soon as possible, if O'Neill is out of the game, you boldly hit it, understand?"

Wang Zhizhi was stunned.

Originally, the coach had already made him happy to let him play, but listening to Lu Fei's meaning, this is to make himself the main point of attack?

"This ......"

"Don't hesitate, believe in yourself!" Lu Fei looked at his eyes firmly.

Wang Zhizhi took a deep breath, "Okay! I'll fight! ”

The timeout ends and players from both sides come on the pitch.

Yu Jia saw that the supersonic substitution was made, and hurriedly said: "The supersonic have come on the bench, replaced by their rookie Kyle Korver this year, oh, there is another player, it's ......"

He hesitated, but finally spoke.

"It's our Chinese player, Wang Zhizhi!"
