The Lakers played very smoothly in the opening game, and their aggressive defensive strategy and resolute counterattack gave the Clippers a disadvantage in the opening game.

Rivers called a timeout, and during the timeout, he went to Collison to strengthen Kobe's defense.

A player like Kobe Bryant should not let him score easily in the opening game.

Li Liang could feel the change in Kobe's style of play after returning from injury.

He's become more cunning, and he's good at picking up points in a light-hearted way when the opening game isn't strong.

Kobe Bryant is good at fast breaks, but he's not very greedy for fast breaks.

He didn't want Drexler, and almost a third of the chances in the offense were obtained on quick counter-attacks.

Bryant likes difficulty, likes one-on-one, and likes to tear apart the opponent's already laid defense line in positional battles.

But he is old, his steps are significantly worse than in the past, and the explosive power caused by the rupture of the Achilles tendon is missing.

So he also needs to use some simple, light methods to get points.

His successive quick counterattacks in the opening game gave the Lakers a good start.

If they fall behind at the start, the rest of the game will be extremely difficult to play.

The timeout ended quickly and both sides returned to the court.

Li Liang said to Kobe: "You will also be opportunistic?" “

Bryant said, "I'm just learning from you, living and learning." ”

"That's right, you're old."

"I can kill you when I'm old."

The trash talk between the two has not stopped since before the game started.

Truth be told, Bryant doesn't like to talk too much trash these days.

On the one hand, as people get older, their temperament will become gentle.

On the other hand, contemporaries who can trash talk with Kobe Bryant are gradually withering.

Can you imagine that many of the new generation of players have grown up watching Kobe Bryant play, and come to the court to talk to Kobe, and some of them may feel "Oh, Kobe actually scolded me, which is good." ”

Li Liang is different, he is not a secret officer.

And with Kobe's cautious eyes, Li Liang's move to leave the Lakers and go to the Clippers is still Kobe Bryant's heart.

Although he didn't say it, Li Liang knew that he definitely cared.

So the two of them fell in love at the beginning.

And the Clippers quickly scored their first goal.

Li Liang blocked and dismantled Griffin on the outside, and after hitting the ground and passing to Griffin, Griffin hit the inside and made a short pass to Jordan Jr.

Little Jordan dunked with his left hand!

This trick can be said to have been tried and tested, and it is the common cooperation of Li Liang-Griffin-Jordan Jr. after Paul.

Even if the opponent knew that the three of them would fight like this, there was still no way.

Griffin is quite a threat in the middle, while Gasol is a bit out of pace.

If Howard wants to come over to help defend, then he will naturally leak Jordan Jr.

The Lakers are still relatively simple in positional battles.

Continue to let Gasol hold the ball in the corner, and then Kobe Bryant walks to the bottom corner.

This set of tactics is simply a replica of D'Antoni's offensive tactics when he was with the Suns.

The problem is that Gasol is not Xiao Si, he does not have Xiao Si's face basket attack power.

The first shot the Clippers defended carelessly, giving Nash space.

The second time I fight like this, I won't give you another chance.

After a few passes from the outside, the Lakers didn't do anything.

In the end, he gave the ball to Kobe Bryant on the bottom, and Kobe Bryant beat Barnes one-on-one.

A mid-range jumper missed, and Griffin grabbed the backcourt rebound and handed the ball to Collison.

Li Liang had already rushed to the front court first, and Collison immediately passed the ball to Li Liang.

Li Liang paused after receiving the ball, and Willis Johnson, who was chasing behind, rushed over his head at once.

Li Liang shot directly outside the 45-degree three-point line on the left side and counterattacked for three points!

Hit!

At 9:5, the Clippers chased the score very fast.

Li Liang now uses a quick counterattack in addition to a stop-and-go jump shot, and will also directly score three points.

It can only be said that the Lakers' two backcourt chasing and defensive capabilities are really not good.

Nash and Kobe Bryant are both too old, and they are bound to be beaten hard by the Clippers' counterattack tonight.

To avoid this from happening, there are only two things that the Lakers can do well - compress the rhythm and improve the success rate of positional battles.

After Li Liang scored a counterattack three-pointer, he passed by Kobe and said: "Old Ko, the three-point shooting rate is higher than two points." ”

Li Liang was sneering in front of Kobe Bryant, because he hit the league's first three-point shot last season, which was higher than Kobe's two-point shooting percentage.

Of course, if you think about it carefully, this simple comparison of hit rates is meaningless.

Each player's tactical position, shot pressure, and offensive tasks are different.

In the Lakers, it can even be said that without Kobe's high pressure in the low post and two-point area, there would be no Li Liang's easy three-point shooting environment, and there would be no Li Liang's high shooting rate.

But now it's a game, the two are opponents, and Li Liang can't manage so much.

Bryant pouted and didn't speak, and then he started asking Nash for the ball.

Nash saw Li Liang and Kobe on the bar and assisted to pass the ball to Kobe.

Bryant received the ball in the horn position and forced Barnes with his back.

Li Liang came over to help defend, and Kobe Bryant returned the ball to Wesley Johnson, hoping that he would shoot outside the three-point line.

As a result, Johnson hesitated and returned the ball to Kobe Bryant again.

Kobe Bryant could only cut out the ball and change the basket with his back, because Li Liang made up for it again, and if he still carried the basket, the ball would die.

Kobe Bryant changed his left hand to the middle to kill the basket, and under the interference of Jordan Jr., he distributed the ball to Gasol, who was inserted.

As a result, Gasol's layup missed.

Howard won the frontcourt rebound and wanted to dunk, but was stuck to Li Liang and failed to dunk.

In the end, Li Liang made a foul and went to the free throw line.

Li Liang looked at Griffin, who was standing not far away and was a little stunned, and wanted to go up and scold him.

The ball should have been defended by Griffin, and it was he who wiped his ass in the end.

But look at Griffin's little short hand, forget it, don't embarrass him, let him attack well.

Howard hit one of two free throws, 10-5, and the Lakers still lead.

Kobe Bryant was a little depressed about the ball.

His idea was to attract the bag, distribute the ball to Johnson, and let Johnson shoot a three-pointer.

This shows that as long as I Kobe Bryant is here, I can create opportunities for my teammates to shoot three-pointers.

It's a pity that Wesley Johnson was only a base salary player - well, Li Liang was actually a base salary at that time.

He doesn't have that ability, and in a short period of time, he catches the ball and throws it.

If this ball is replaced by Ci Shiping, it is estimated that he will dare to throw, and it is difficult to say whether he dares to score or not.

Clippers round.

Li Liang continued to hold the ball in the high post, and Griffin came over to block it.

But this time, the two played a fake pick-and-roll trick.

Li Liang kept dribbling with his left hand, making people think that he was going to take the left side with the help of Griffin's cover.

Who knew that he didn't, but suddenly a dribble behind his back, changed to his right hand, and then broke through with the ball from the right side!

The dribble behind his back changed direction a little hidden, tearing apart the Lakers' defense at once.

Kobe Bryant on the wing contracted the defense, and Li Liang gave the ball to Barnes on the wing.

Barnes caught the ball in the corner and hit a three-pointer.

At 10:8, there was only 2 points left behind.

"Corvo, my teammates dare to shoot because my ball is passed well!"

Li Liang was simply stunned, and Kobe's anger exploded all of a sudden.

The second-round show that was my little brother in the team last year rode on my head this year?

Come on, it's not certain who is the younger brother in the Lakers.

Anyway, Kobe Bryant is a little bit upset.

It stands to reason that at Kobe's age, this experience can make him very few.

But on the basketball court, Kobe's fighting spirit is never extinguished.

No matter how many layers of dead ash you feel like it's covered, how cold it looks, with the right fan of the wind, the flames will come out again.

Bryant holds the ball from the outside and calls Willis Johnson to block the pick-and-roll.

Then, Li Liang and Barnes switched defenses, but Kobe Bryant had a one-on-one conversation.

After the start of the game, the two finally had to go head-to-head.

And this is exactly what Li Liang is looking forward to.

There is no player who doesn't want to beat the former king one-on-one in an official match.

Kobe Bryant used to be like this, and so was Li Liang.

Facing Li Liang, Kobe Bryant continued to dribble under his crotch, and his body and skills were warming up and thinking before sending out an attack.

Then, it was broken by Li Liang......

I'm showing off Nyima's dribbling!

Li Liang directly pulled out the ball and hit Kobe's ball, causing the ball to bounce on Kobe's feet and roll out.

Li Liang accelerated and bent down to pick up the ball, and then dribbled towards the front court.

Replaced by the 24-year-old Kobe, the ball was frantically chased up to block, even if it was a foul.

But he was 34 years old, and he almost fell when he tried to turn around to save the ball.

By the time he got up, Li Liang had already dribbled past half court and reached the three-point line.

Unless Kobe Bryant can fly, he can only go to the baseline to serve.

Then he watched Li Liang dunk easily.

Is this damn guy really not giving face at all?
