The current Lakers team can see Jeremy Lin's three-point shooting, with a 35.8% shooting rate last season, as for Kobe, he only played 6 games in the 13-14 season, not to mention, he played 78 games in the 12-13 season, only 32.4% shooting, three-point shooting has never been his strong point, so the Suns resolutely adopted joint defense, 3-2 joint defense, Gordon defended Jeremy Lin, Middleton defended Kobe, Gobert and Markieff shrank the basket, and Li Mojie was one step inside the three-point line.

Middleton was in charge of the middle and faced Kobe. The Lakers are not tall inside, and their low-post offense is not strong, and the coach arranged it this because the Lakers' first tactic is to block and dismantle in the high post. Middleton can directly defend Kobe Bryant at this position, and the pick-and-roll against the interior will not make it easy for people to get opportunities.

In the first ball, Jeremy Lin still handed the ball to Kobe, and ran to the bottom corner of the three-point corner, Kobe Bryant controlled it outside the three-point line in the middle, and his teammates pulled away, and he could go heads-up at a glance. In terms of salary, Middleton only got $920,000 this year (although he was a second-round pick but signed a three-year contract with the team), Kobe Bryant got $23.5 million, it seems that the two are very different, but Kobe really can't take the ninth pick in the second round of 2012 in front of him.

This is Middleton's third season, and last season Middleton ushered in the spring after his transfer to the Suns, starting 73 games, averaging 13.4 points per game, and shooting 41.4% from three-point range. In terms of height and arm span, Kobe Bryant does not have an advantage, and Kobe's athletic ability has also declined sharply for two consecutive years of major injuries, and the 36-year-old can no longer easily get rid of the 23-year-old Middleton at this time.

Kobe Bryant couldn't get rid of it, slammed his foot on the three-point line, poked his right shoulder, pulled the ball up violently, and made a quick jump shot, and a long-range shot, which was a common offensive option for quarterbacks who debuted a decade ago.

Numerically, mid-range shooting is the least efficient way to attack. The law of basketball, the closer you get to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage, and the greater the chance of making free throws. And when it bursts into the basket, it also has a lethal function. The three-point shot automatically increases by 50%, and the 33% three-point rate is ordinary, but it is equivalent to an ordinary shooting rate of 50%. The mid-range shooting can reach 45%, which is extremely accurate. And the shooting percentage under the basket, such as Jennings, who is notoriously unable to shoot under the basket, is 50% away. So in the past few years, Harden, LeBron, Curry, and Thompson, who are efficient scorers, have been increasing three-point + basket and reducing mid-range. Further back, Ginobili is a model of this. Don't look at how well he plays, his career TS% (True Shooting Percentage) is an unbelievable 59%. Wade's bloody throat is only 57%. Ginobili's strengths are: either to the basket, or three-pointers, not to shoot; His basket + three-pointers account for about 70% of his personal offense, not counting free throws.

Middleton's defense was quite good, but Kobe Bryant's ball was reversed a few times and turned into the basket. After seeing the ball scored, Kobe Bryant deliberately glanced at Middleton with contempt, wanting to provoke Middleton, but he didn't expect to see Li Mojie smiling at him.

CCTV radio broadcast live, Zhang Reasonable Director smiled: "Kobe Bryant returned a two-point, this is the black mamba, no matter who the opponent is, you have to make your own response." ”

Yang Yi blinked. "Li Mojie showed an excited smile after Kobe Bryant's goal, Kobe Bryant's shooting percentage in the last game was not high, if he feels good today and Li Mojie scored, the game will be interesting."

"Give it to me!"

The Suns attacked, Li Mojie went to the three-point line to ask for the ball, and Johnson was close.

Li Mojie turned his back to the top, felt that Johnson's strength was not bad, and turned to the right side again. In terms of physical aspect, Johnson is okay, this person was drafted with physical fitness as a selling point, and the template is still Sean Marion. Later, I found that I had some good physical fitness, but I rarely broke through to make fouls, and I kept floating on the outside to shoot, and my shooting was not on target, and I was abandoned by the Timberwolves.

But so what? Li Mojie chuckled, took a deep breath and forced Johnson to the basket, one step to the 45-degree jumper, Johnson failed to cover it, and hit the board. 5 to 2.

"My God, Li Mojie's ball is completely unreasonable, just rely on talent to eat!" Teacher Yang Yi opened his mouth wide and said, he really didn't expect a yellow-skinned player to be able to defeat a black player on a stage like the NBA.

"Actually, you don't find it, this season's Li Mojie is obviously more resolute in attacking, last season's Li Mojie played more reasonably, but he lacked some superstar temperament, and this season, looking at these two games, Li Mojie seems to have stepped into this threshold!" Zhang Lizhi nodded and said mysteriously.

Back to their own half, Jeremy Lin and Jordan Hill played blocking and dismantling, Markieff changed defenses, Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball to his right hand under his crotch, and dribbled to his left hand behind his back, and then opened the distance with a horizontal jump, and the jump shot dodged Markieff's block, the action was very beautiful, but unfortunately it was missed.

Li Mojie turned his head and glanced at it, and immediately launched a fast attack.

Gobert took the backcourt rebound and passed it to Gordon. Gordon got rid of Kobe Bryant and rushed to the frontcourt, and hung high in front of the three-point line to Li Mojie, Li Mojie didn't stop after receiving the ball, and directly took three steps to get up, and won the one-handed split, which shocked the cheers of countless fans at the scene!

"Wow, Mojie Lee scored the first seven points of the Suns' opening game, and it looks like his form from the last game has carried over to this one, listen to that, the Staples crowd is calling Kobe Bryant's name!" DJ Heidy Watney said.

The old Magic Johnson next to him smiled wryly, yes, since 04, Lakers fans have long been accustomed to that man defending the home court of Staples Arena, and when the other party is powerful, they are also used to the familiar No. 24 standing up to respond and protect the glory of the Purple and Gold aristocracy, but now Kobe Bryant is already powerless!

"Kobe, Kobe, Kobe......" The voice that sounded at Staples Arena was both an honor and a responsibility. 、

So Jeremy Lin continued to hand the ball to Kobe, after Kobe received the ball, he looked directly at the defender Middleton in front of him, this time, he still did not choose to find a teammate, but took the ball and began to look for offensive opportunities, he thought very simply: Since Li Mojie is single, then he can't admit defeat.

Seeing Kobe's move, the Lakers' teammates also knew the black mamba's choice, and they all consciously pulled away from both sides, and did not go to the tactical run to involve the possible defense, and even Jeremy Lin stood at a 45-degree angle on the left side at this time.

While the Lakers players were pulling away, Kobe Bryant had already begun to break through, and in the face of Middleton's defense, his breakthrough move was the most resolute in this game.

Changing hands left and right quickly dribbling, shaking to drive Middleton's center of gravity to change, and then suddenly accelerated and rushed in, fast as lightning and fast as the wind, four years ahead, Middleton must not be able to defend, but now Middleton has kept up, and almost killed Kobe's shooting space, Kobe Bryant had no choice but to choose to lean back, but the shooting rate of the forced backward jump shot is not high to be honest, and now Kobe's ability to stay in the air has also decreased significantly, with a knife in his hand, a picturesque posture, but the ball hit the basket with a duang.

Kobe stuck out his tongue in annoyance, and suddenly Kobe thought about how this habit was formed? It seems to be what I learned when I watched Jordan play, I remember that I was very excited every time I met Jordan, the All-Star in 1998 I also told Malone to go away, and I had to fight Jordan alone, Malone and Jordan have been retired for many years now!
