Chapter 133: The First Emergence of the Dynasty! (Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription, 3/3)
It's an interesting combination. Like ordinary people, the Zen master also wanted to see what Zhou Yang and Kobe Bryant were like when they were both present at the same time. Undoubtedly, now everyone has discovered that today's Kobe Bryant is bloodthirsty!
Not only is the Rockets' rhythm not at the same frequency as Kobe's, but even his teammates on the Lakers' side. This is not uncommon for Jackson...... Kobe Bryant's individual ability really set him apart from the others in the game.
Derrick came to the front court with the ball, and after Maddy's jumper was missing, Zhou Yang suddenly jumped up and won the basketball! He ignored Kobe's request for the ball again, and Brown got Zhou Yang's pass and passed it to Kobe......
This situation made Jackson vigilant! Kobe's status in the team is very high! He wants to play and the team will basically pass the ball out! So if you play well, Kobe Bryant can naturally get a lot of data, and if you don't play well, he is destroying the rhythm of the team!
After Kobe Bryant came to the frontcourt, he was waiting! Didn't go down to the basket quickly, but waited until Maddie came over before jumping under his defense to make a three-point shot!! The Zen master shook his head when he saw this attack.
12:3! The Zen master was already planning to pause after a while. But Van Gundy was the first to call for a timeout.
"Hayes to the No. 3 position," Van Gundy walked a few steps directly to the players on the scene, and then turned to say to Haiye. Although it is the opponent's home court, it is really not good to be hit by the opponent as a team known for its defense, and it is really not good to be hit by the opponent in the opening game 4 consecutive three-pointers!
The Rockets' opening lineup was exactly the same as he expected...... The idea here in Houston is that the Lakers are weak on the inside, and the Rockets can quickly seize the opportunity to counterattack the opponent in response to this!
That's what Van Gundy meant by letting Yao Ming and Uncle Mu go up in the first section! But when the game changed, there was an interesting scene. The players on the Lakers' side shot three-pointers one by one......
Although the Rockets coach doesn't believe it, if this continues, it doesn't seem difficult for the Lakers to score more than 30 points in the first quarter!
"Maddie goes to the shooting guard. The rebounds are still protected, but Hayes and Alston pay more attention to the opponent's Kobe Bryant's movements, and if they can defend him immediately! ”
The players were happy to say yes. But everyone knows that this is Kobe. According to Zhou Yang's words, now the opponents are facing the peak Kobe!
"Zhou Yang, you will go up again in a while, Wharton is ready, okay, you can rest" Jackson stood up on the bench and didn't take two steps, turned around and went back. The Lakers players who had just arrived on the sidelines went straight to rest.
"Kobe, you kid is very good today," although the two of them will quarrel or ignore each other after they meet on the field. But when the big shark in the hospital bed sees Kobe Bryant, who was once a newcomer to high school and is now a superstar in the league, he still hopes that he will score more points and the team will win.
The same goes for the Black Mamba, although the two are starting to fight each other, they both hope that that person can lead the Lakers to win the game when they can't play together!
After coming back, the Rockets' defensive lineup has become even more terrifying! Yao Ming, Mutombo, Hayes! The three of them make up a formidable Houston defense!
At the beginning of the game, the Zen master went directly to the sidelines and began to observe. As soon as Kobe Bryant felt it, he was about to take a timeout. This is no joke. He still needs more wins in the regular season.
It's an important thing, and unless they have a playoff ticket in the late stages, wins and win percentages in recent games are still something that Jackson needs to keep an eye on.
After Maddy came to the front court and played against Kobe Bryant, Hayeye suddenly appeared, and Tracy seized this opportunity to shoot a three-point jumper next to Hayes! 12:6! The fans at the scene were boiling!
Sure enough, tonight is a direct confrontation between Maddie and Kobe!
After Walton got the basketball, he came to the frontcourt, and he ignored Kobe's request for the ball. The Black Mamba was a little angry and said something to him, and finally Odom got the ball and passed it to Kobe Bryant after facing Uncle Mu and Mutombo's bag!
Xiaoyu came to the bottom corner at this time, just like training, after receiving Kobe's ball, he jumped up and crossed the net for three points! Yao Ming and Maddie glanced at each other. Such a situation is still rare for them.
Within 5 minutes of the first quarter, the opponent had already scored 15 points. Never shot a 2-pointer, and neither did they. Maddie calmed down first, and he couldn't continue to score points with Kobe Bryant.
My team is now a strong insider, and if I don't let go of the existing advantages, the Rockets will not be able to make a mistake, and we will lose to the Lakers. After thinking of this, Tracy immediately hit the ground and passed to Yao Ming after going to the front court, who used his body and height advantage to jump directly in front of Brown, and the basketball seemed to go straight down without even touching the net!
At this time, Kobe Bryant passed the half, and after Walton got the basketball, he also hit a three-pointer......
32:27! At the end of the first quarter, the atmosphere was very warm! Both teams soared to a high score!
Although the Lakers are weak on the inside, their outside shooting is powerful! The Rockets' team improved their scoring after using Yao Ming and Uncle Mu's defense and offense in the later stages.
"We took advantage of the solidity of the inside line and continued to break quickly in the next quarter. Strive to overtake your opponent in the first half of the game! And then our focus was on the third quarter......"
As Van Gundy thought last night, the Lakers have improved a lot in terms of strength and competitive status after Kobe Bryant returns! This Jackson is really amazing!
It's not easy for the Rockets to win against such Lakers today. If you want to win them, then you have to exert your strength in the early stage to knock down the opponent's morale! If the team plays well in the final quarter, there is still a chance to win.
Back in the second quarter, the Rockets were replaced by Juvan Howard and Wesley. Uncle Mu and Maddie went to rest. The Lakers lineup hasn't changed at all!
In this interval, the Zen master was talking with the coaching staff about what to eat in the evening. There are also some parents who have a lively chat...... He didn't care about the players, and he didn't have a new tactical arrangement to let them continue to play~
The Lakers fans at the scene were all excited after seeing Maddie on the other side of the Rockets! What does this mean? The other party gave up? The score is not much different, is it?
Fisher came to the front court with the ball, Wesley immediately came to defend him, Kobe Bryant got the basketball and suddenly got it in and shot a 2-point jumper in front of Hayes and Juwan!!
Kobe Bryant is too hard to defend right now! The three commentators who broadcast the game all mentioned how far the Lakers will play this season. One of the more consistent views is that the basic lineup and strength of this dynasty team this season are already capable of competing for the championship!
They probably won't be eliminated from the playoffs as long after entering the playoffs as they did in previous years. In this season's championship list, the Lakers appear in people's field of vision!
