Chapter 653 [Tomorrow's Black Branch]

After Kobe Bryant stayed at his hotel in Phoenix, he neither used the Internet nor watched the news.

He is currently averaging 33 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.8 steals on 25.2 shots per game. This is the peak of his career, second only to Guo Xu in the scoring list, but now his mood is like Mark Twain who was slandered by his opponent in "Running for Governor", which is very uncomfortable.

He began to get a little apprehensive as soon as he picked up the newspaper, just as you want to pick up a blanket when you go to bed, but you are always worried about a snake in it.

Because the media rarely says good things about Kobe, fans always question his ability to lead the team, which makes him miserable.

People complained again and again that he was inefficient, his shooting rate was only 45%, he grabbed the ball from his teammates on the inside, shot hard, shot more than 25 times too alone, didn't trust his teammates, and his strength was not as good as O'Neal, Guo Xu, etc...... Just like slandering Mark Twain as a perjury, a Montana thief, a gravedigger, an alcoholic, a dirty bribe-taker, an abominable bribe-giver.

Although Mark Twain is fake, Kobe Bryant is real, but this is really infuriating!

Kobe Bryant's most disgusting thing is the group of brainless people who are known as "6 billion", and he is the most powerful, isn't Guo Xu scoring more than him? Could it be that Guo Xu has no weaknesses and is perfect?

These people go around all day blackmailing other stars, laughing at other fans, and seeing who bites whom. What else is this called "pot secret"? It's more appropriate to call it "dog secret", right? Bryant suspected it was a bunch of neurotics.

Guo Xu is also very unique in playing, and he has more shots, but there is a group of brain-dead people who applaud.

Guo Xu didn't train hard, he didn't defend well in the game, and there was even a group of brains who applauded.

The most outrageous thing is that the last time Guo Xu went to China to do activities, there was an SB who wore glasses because he saw him from a distance, and when he was interviewed, he cried as if his father had died. Big brother, won't your parents be ashamed of you if they know that you are this kind of fan?

Kobe Bryant doesn't think there's a problem with his style of play, he firmly believes that the Lakers' poor record is because the team is not strong enough, and he is the only All-Star player on the team at the moment. In the last game against the Timberwolves, he passed a lot of balls, handed out 8 assists, and only made 16 baskets, and the team still lost.

Kobe Bryant had a headache against the Suns because he knew how rubbish his teammates were, and Smush Parker certainly couldn't guard Guo Xu, and neither could their wing defense. "Zen Master" Jackson is ready to adjust the lineup this time, let Kobe Bryant play small forward, limit Josh Howard as much as possible, and no longer let the opponent's small forward do whatever he wants like Szczebiak on the court.

Despite the one-sided prediction on the Internet, the media still paid close attention to the game, which was broadcast live on TNT radio in the United States on the 6th.

The Suns' game is the most broadcast in the United States, and the three major American television stations take turns to broadcast it, and the ratings are always guaranteed, especially this season. Fans love to watch Guo Xu score and do something that other players won't do, cool things.

Guo Xu's dress style has attracted many people to imitate, his usual military-style short hair has also become popular, and the products of the merchants who find him as an endorsement are selling very well.

When the players played, Barkley introduced with a smile: "Suns VS Lakers, Jason, who is often still exercising with his girlfriend at four o'clock in the morning, and Kobe, who is often still playing sports with sparring partners in the arena at four o'clock in the morning, I believe that many fans can't wait to see them score points, this game will be very exciting." ”

Kenny Smith said: "If it was the beginning of the season, looking at the lineups of both sides, even if Butler is out, I would say that the Lakers have a better lineup than the Suns, and now it's the other way around, and I don't fancy the Lakers to win when Butler comes back." ”

Butler is a physical forward who likes to break through dunks, but he was pulled down by a foul by PJ Brown and fell hard, and he will have to be out for at least two weeks before returning.

Suns starters: Guo Xu, Blake, Bale, Haslem, David Lee.

Lakers starters: Smash Parker, Vujasic, Kobe, Odom, Bogut.

"Zen Master" Jackson found that the Suns lineup was different from what he thought, and changed three starters. Payton didn't play, Howard was rested, and they didn't even field Vallejo, who is good at defending the box.

The adjustments were the result of discussions with the coaching staff, and Howard didn't defend Kobe Bryant as well as Bell.

As long as Bale plays, Kobe Bryant is constantly entangled in the way that Kobe Bryant is not easy to catch the ball. Howard doesn't press enough off the ball and likes to let that opponent get the ball and then defend with his body. He will allocate his energy wisely in order to perform better on the offensive end.

In that case, Howard will go straight to the bench offense and deal with Kobe Bryant to Bell and Ariza. Guo Xu proposed this during the meeting, and he knew that Howard's main defense was prone to accidents. Kobe Bryant played the Mavericks with 62 points in the third quarter to play against Howard, and against Kobe, he couldn't let him get the ball comfortably in the position he liked, and he couldn't let him find his rhythm.

Blake started because he was in good shape, and he was on the spot in the morning training session with a three-pointer and a heads-up win over Payton.

Before the game, Payton said: "Let Steve start, don't worry about my face, he will definitely play well." ”

As a veteran, Payton never relied on the old in the team, liked to coach the young players in the technique, and had a good relationship with Blake.

Now the Suns' Blake defense is definitely better than Guo Xu's previous life, the one who suffered many injuries in the early stage. Payton also has no desire to brush up on statistics, and even if he eventually sets a new single-season assist high, no one will think that he is better than he was at his peak, and it makes no sense.

When the team needed him, he just had to play as best he could, and he didn't have any complaints about playing about 10 minutes per game last season.

Vallejo's rest is a sign that the Suns want to fight offensively, and the coaching staff is not worried about Bogut at all. Looking at the Lakers' previous games, D'Antoni knew that someone would help David Lee prevent Bogut from killing, and that person had a super ability to help defend the interior, and he could be called the best sixth man on the 29th team.

Even if Bogut is in great shape, he can't shoot a few balls in a game, and his tactical role in the team is becoming more and more embarrassing.

The referee tosses the ball into the air and the game begins.

David Lee jumped with all his strength to earn the ball, but it was useless, Bogut jumped too high. If the rules allow, Bogut can take the ball straight down like a rebound, and many of his dunks this season have been flat-headed, with a body test bounce of 85cm.

Bogut's sucking energy every time he earns the ball is a kind of venting, and he knows that when the game starts, he will have to stand on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends to rest, and it is not good to show his bounce power except for the jump ball.

Parker dribbled the ball across the halfcourt to Kobe Bryant, and Bale quickly completed the close. Kobe Bryant couldn't get rid of it in two steps, passed to the middle Odom organization, and ran to the right low post to ask for the ball, and Bogut stood in the low post on the left side, forming a "double ghost shot" trend.

Odom is good at withdrawing the inside line and tackling the pass, if he is allowed to receive the ball on the side, the effect of organizing the attack and the accuracy of the mid-range shot will be worse, so "Zen Master" Jackson tends to let him play high and let Bogut move from the baseline. When playing with defenders, Odom also has a higher shooting percentage than Bogut.

However, whenever he sees this kind of important position, Odom will be a little hesitant to pass the ball, because there are teammates in the low post on both sides, and he only has one ball, and he can't split and pass to the two.

This is really a dilemma, and if Guo Xu is responsible for organizing the offense in this Lakers team, he will want to sing at this time.

Write him in my left hand, love in my right hand, clasped hands, vague sadness, how will my decision hurt......
