The Grizzlies scored right from the start, and the strategy was obvious - bombarding the inside!

is also a low-post single, Howard is embarrassed, but Randolph scores handsomely. From this, it is not difficult to see how big the gap is between the current state of the two sides.

However, one ball doesn't mean anything, and the Lakers are on the second offense, and people are still full of expectations for the Purple and Gold. Faced with the Grizzlies' impregnable defense, most people think the Lakers will definitely find a way.

Bryant didn't make a shot of his own, and he still tried to mobilize his teammates. This time, after Kobe Bryant got the ball, he directly shouted at Howard to cover for himself.

In the face of Kobe's direct order, although Howard had a black face, he still brought it up.

Bryant broke through with the cover, and Howard quickly cut inside.

Although Howard failed to single Gasol Jr. in the low post just now, I have to admit that Howard's footsteps are indeed much faster than Gasol Jr.

He had barely taken two steps after the pick-and-roll when Howard realized that Gasol Jr. had been left behind by himself.

The next second, the basketball flew towards the top of Howard's head. Howard didn't hesitate, jumped up with both legs, and caught the basketball in the air. Then, unguarded, smash the ball into the box!

"Good ball, an aerial relay from Kobe Bryant and Howard! Haha, Kobe's strategy really worked. Look, Howard, who was too reluctant just now, is now smiling happily! ”

Sure enough, no one can escape the law of true fragrance.

For the Lakers' goal, Link was not unhappy. That goal was really good, but have you ever seen a team that won by a full-time aerial relay? This short-lived and beautiful offense doesn't pose a threat to the Grizzlies!

Link confidently ran to the three-point line, but as soon as he was grounded, his expression changed.

Because at this time, it was no longer Ci Shiping who crossed in front of Link, but Kobe!

"Kobe Bryant took the initiative to defend Link! Haha, this game is interesting! "Kenny. Smith craned his neck to look at the court, and the atmosphere was like Kobe Bryant VS Jordan back then.

Bryant didn't keep his distance from Link, but stuck it roughly. To put it bluntly, it is not to let Link paddle, and not to let Link save physical strength.

"Didn't you say you were going to put the Lakers under pressure? Come on, I'm not stressed at all right now! While confronting Link, Kobe Bryant also spewed trash talk.

At this time, Kobe Bryant did not have the kind appearance he had off the court at all. Once this guy is on the basketball court, no one recognizes him.

Seeing Link being pressed, Conley had no choice but to pass the ball to Randolph again. But this time, it was the more athletic Howard who defended Randolph!

After all, Howard was the three-time Defensive Player of the Year from '08 to '11, and although the Lakers played poorly on offense due to system reasons, his defensive skills were still there.

Randolph couldn't get past Howard and instead barely shot with Howard's interference.

Howard jumped high and almost flew the fan out. Although the basketball eventually got past Howard's fingertips, Randolph had lost all of his crosshairs due to this serious distraction.

"Bang!"

On the second throw, Randolph missed!

Darius. Morris quickly countered after receiving a pass from Howard, and no one cared about the undrafted pick, and Conley didn't defend him too tightly. So Morris seized the opportunity to go down quickly, and by the time Conley reacted, he couldn't catch up.

Easily, Morris scored a layup, 4-2, and the Lakers overtook it!

"That's what the Los Angeles Lakers should look like! Look, I said it, the Lakers have a good chance of killing the Grizzlies today for honor! ”

Several commentators cheered for the Lakers' defensive counterattack, and Kobe Bryant also looked at Link, "What? Still not yet? Scared? Also, you should be scared. ”

"You can't provoke me, don't waste your efforts." Link finally responded to Kobe's first words.

"Really? You can't beat me either, don't waste your efforts! Kobe Bryant slammed back hard, the ball hadn't hit yet, and the two had already opened their mouths.

Then on the attack, Link finally had the ball! Kobe Bryant is incredibly focused, and he can be beaten by Link on the training field, but not here.

Link didn't want to cover, but made a few tentative steps to confuse Kobe, and then suddenly started!

Link's speed surprised Kobe Bryant. That kid couldn't have broken through so efficiently before! Even compared to training camp in Manchester this summer, it's a lot faster.

This is the first time Kobe Bryant has played Link in the new season, so he is not used to Link's current speed.

Link leaned on Kobe Bryant to get into the box, and Howard also rushed to the basket. And, the passing space is completely sealed!

Link now has two options, to face Kobe Bryant and Howard, or to stop the ball directly.

In most people's minds, Link has only two options. But in Link's own opinion, he has a third option.

I saw Link jump slightly, attracting Kobe and Howard to jump along, in the air, Link didn't have any space, this seemed to be a doomed attack!

But just as Link's body soared to its highest point, Link, who was in the air, threw the ball back of his head!

Without turning to look at the person, he just faced the basket and threw the ball back of his head!

"What!?" Kobe Bryant watched the basketball fly to the bottom corner, and over there, Iguodala was unmarked! It turned out that Iguodala had already borrowed Gasol's off-ball cover to get rid of Ci Shiping!

In the next second, Iguodala received this fairy pass and calmly shot from the bottom corner!

As a "superlative green leaf", Iguodala will not waste this opportunity. The giant, who just joined the Grizzlies this summer, completed a shot a second before Ci Shiping arrived, and the basketball hollowed into the net, and he and Link completed a juggling match!

"Oh my God! How did he come up with this type of passing!? Link didn't even look behind him in the air, it was incredible! "Kenny. Smith covered his head in disbelief, commenting on the NBA for so many years, this kind of passing is really rare!

It seems that Kobe Bryant and Link's strategy is to mobilize teammates in the first quarter. Kobe Bryant's aerial relay with Howard just now was very exciting, but the three points of Link and Iguodala were enough to be selected as the top ten goals of the season!

Not to mention the commentators and fans, even Stevens can afford goosebumps. The ball was passed too thrillingly, and Link should have swept away Iguodala who got rid of Tzu Shiping with his afterglow when he broke through, so he chose to pass the ball like this.

But even with a plan, this goal is still difficult. You have to keep your balance in the air and pass the ball backwards, and you have to be accurate!

The creativity of young people is simply amazing.

After this goal, the Grizzlies' momentum rose.

After several attacks, Link frequently sent riotous assists. Randolph, who assisted in cutting through with a pass from behind, made an easy layup, and assisted Conley on a three-point shot......

His riotous performance made O'Neill exclaim, "This guy is simply a Chinese magician!" ”

On the Lakers' side, Kobe Bryant felt a little forced passing. He wanted the inside twin towers to play with power, so he kept feeding Gasol and Howard.

But the ending was 1 of 6 for Gasol and 1 for Howard. Gasol was reduced to a pitcher in the high post, and the more he pitched, the worse he felt. Howard faced the "European castle" of Gasol Jr. and played hard.

Then, Kobe himself began to be iron. The Grizzlies went on an 11-0 offensive surge in three minutes. And after the two sides entered the rotation time, the situation did not change. Nick. Yang and Jamison of the Lakers scored each other's points, and in the end it turned out that Yang Shaoxia was a little more horizontal.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers were 18-34, trailing by as many as 16 points! Bryant made 2-of-5 shooting and had two assists. Although Link only scored 6 points, he delivered 4 assists, and all of them were wonderful! The Grizzlies bloomed more than in the first quarter, as if they could kill the Lakers in just half the court!

But when the Grizzlies players got off the court in joy, Stevens yelled solemnly, "Cheer up, the game has just begun!" ”

Stevens knows that the Lakers will never lose until they beat Kobe!

On the Lakers bench, Kobe Bryant gritted his teeth and looked at everyone.

No one spoke, but every Lakers player knew what to do next.
