"It's finally here. X" Just when Kobe Bryant and Meng Xu started their first real one-on-one in this round of the series, when almost all the eyes of the audience had gathered on Meng Xu and Kobe Bryant at the top of the arc, Larry Bird, who was standing on the sidelines, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a subtle smile. Just now, O'Neal, who had quickly rushed to the basket, squeezed out a gap between Lorenzen White and Jermaine O'Neal, and occupied an excellent offensive position at the edge of the paint area, as long as Kobe Bryant made a direct pass, it was a near-perfect match, but Kobe ignored O'Neal, who had already appeared vacant, but slowly lowered his body center of gravity, ready to single Meng Xu. Inspired Kobe Bryant to attack the basket, blocked the connection between Kobe and O'Neal, and let the Lakers fall into a solo battle, it was a strategy formulated by Larry Bird before the start of the Finals, and finally, when this long series was about to end, the scene that Larry Bird dreamed of finally appeared, but fortunately, it was not too late, the time, the place, the people, in addition to the location, the Pacers have quietly occupied two of them.

"Meng, your defense is excellent, but it's not enough." After dribbling on the spot and looking at Meng Xu for about 3 seconds, Kobe Bryant finally started, in the few seconds that Meng Xu looked at each other, Kobe Bryant had already lowered his body center of gravity, and after making a detailed judgment, Kobe first chose to use his best breakthrough and change direction to get rid of Meng Xu, but Meng Xu's defensive prediction was too good, not only Kobe Bryant's two feints in the breakthrough process failed to deceive Meng Xu, but even his own breakthrough route was very accurately predicted by Meng Xu, and occupied there one step ahead, and Kobe, who failed to break through, could only barely squeeze into the 3-point line along the diagonal line, but this was enough for Kobe.

"Isn't that enough? Kobe, use your strongest move! Looking at Kobe's originally handsome face, a smile suddenly appeared, Meng Xu knew that Kobe's breakthrough was a cover from beginning to end, his real goal was to enter the 3-point line, Kobe's best scoring means is the kind of signature action with Jordan, almost exactly the same as the 3-point line's back-to-back jumper, at this moment, Kobe Bryant has changed from facing Meng Xu to leaning sideways on Meng Xu.

"Come on!" When Kobe Bryant leaned sideways against Meng Xu and began to dribble, Meng Xu was already able to determine the series of moves that Kobe would use next.

"Meng's defensive prediction is really good, it seems that every move of Kobe, he can predict, and Kobe Bryant in this series of actions just now, there are at least two fake moves, but without exception, Meng Xu has seen through, and now in this league, only Meng Xu can force Kobe to this point!"

"Is this guy really Kobe?" Kobe Bryant, who was blocked by Meng Xu, leaned on Meng Xu sideways, slapped the basketball twice, and then turned around directly in front of Meng Xu, and then when he was halfway through the turn, Kobe Bryant forcibly pulled his body back and began to turn in the opposite direction, and the speed of turning was faster and faster than just now. Looking at Kobe's extremely fast turning action in front of Meng Xu, the audience at the scene all had a feeling at the moment, sure that this guy wearing the Lakers' No. 8 jersey was Kobe Bryant and not Jordan?

"No matter how good your defense is, it's in vain!" After Kobe Bryant completed the turn, he found that Meng Xu was still in front of him, and the feint he had just been there was once again recognized by Meng Xu, but this was actually useless for Kobe, who was in good condition to explode, this time, Kobe, who had completed the turn, no longer had any superfluous movements, but jumped up directly.

When Kobe Bryant turned his back and jumped, almost at the same time, Meng Xu also jumped up, Kobe Bryant in the air, his body leaned back sharply, and made a shot action, while Meng Xu leaned forward, and his right hand was always sealed on the top of Kobe's head.

"Not good." Just after Meng Xu blocked Kobe's shooting route with almost perfect defense, Meng Xu suddenly found that Kobe's body had drifted to the right side by more than a meter in the air, and seeing that Kobe was getting farther and farther away from him, Meng Xu could only wave his right hand and sweep it in the direction of Kobe's drift, hoping to interfere with Kobe's shooting.

Listening to the burst of cheers that erupted in Staples, Meng Xu, who had fallen from the sky, didn't need to look back at all to know that Kobe's shot was definitely scored, looking at Kobe Bryant, who just clenched his fists and still looked cold, Meng Xu suddenly felt that a flame was burning in his chest at this moment, and his ** attacking the basket was stimulated by Kobe's attack.

"Rick, get out of the way, he's mine." After Kobe Bryant scored the first goal for the Lakers, when it was the Pacers' turn to attack, Jamal Tinsley only dribbled through the half court, and quickly handed over the basketball to Meng Xu, who accompanied him and had just passed the top of the arc. Rick Fox, who was opposite Meng Xu, just wanted to rush over to defend Meng Xu, when he heard Kobe Bryant on the side yelling at him, and Rick Fox, who heard Kobe's voice, was immediately stunned in place, and looked at Kobe, who had rushed towards Meng Xu with an innocent face, and then looked at Phil Jackson on the sidelines, how is this different from the head coach's pre-game arrangement?

However, looking at Kobe Bryant, who had rushed over to defend Meng Xu alone, although there was no expression on his face, Rick Fox's heart was in ecstasy at the moment. Defending Meng Xu is too sadistic, throughout the series, Rick Fox was beaten out of the shadow by Meng Xu, originally in this game, the head coach arranged Rick Fox to continue to defend Meng Xu, Rick Fox is hard-headed, now Kobe Bryant wants to go one-on-one with Meng Xu, and he just happens to defend Reggie Miller, who is much weaker than Meng Xu, the best of both worlds, each with its own place, isn't it beautiful!

Meng Xu is very familiar with Kobe, of course, Kobe is also very familiar with Meng Xu, the teams of the two have met in the playoffs for three consecutive years, both of them have dislocated each other to their biggest opponents, after encounters again and again, and after constantly watching his game videos, they are very familiar with each other's tactical characteristics and even dribbling movements.

After Meng Xu slowly advanced towards the top of the arc with the ball and faced Kobe Bryant, Kobe was able to predict that in this attack, Meng Xu would definitely not choose the kind of breakthrough that changed direction significantly, nor would he use the back single, so Meng Xu had one choice left, that is, the dry pull-out jump shot after the retreat, after predicting Meng Xu's offensive choice, Kobe Bryant also had a targeted defensive strategy, that is, to stick to Meng Xu tightly, constantly press him, and not give him space to jump and shoot calmly, Although Meng Xu's shooting method, like his own backward jumper, is an undefensible shooting method, Kobe Bryant still has to try it today.

So when Meng Xu advanced to a place not far from the top of the arc with the ball, Kobe immediately rushed up and used all his strength to entangle Meng Xu, although compared with Meng Xu, Kobe did not have a physical advantage, but Kobe still tried his best to constantly press Meng Xu's space.

Just after Meng Xu took advantage of a small gap and forcibly squeezed Kobe Bryant out of a gap with his body, Meng Xu immediately dribbled the ball and took a big step towards the right side, making a posture to get rid of Kobe, after Kobe followed him, Meng Xu immediately retracted his footsteps, retreated to his original position, changed the basketball from his right hand to his left hand, and then started to start to the left side, while facing Kobe Bryant, after successfully entering the 3-point line, after feeling the pressure exerted by Kobe on the side of his body, Meng Xu protected the ball, While pretending to lower the center of his body and sink his shoulders towards the left side of his body, then cross his steps on the spot, and then turn over his right shoulder and then retreat, after this series of actions was completed, Kobe Bryant was already a meter away in front of Meng Xu's body.

When Meng Xu retracted his steps, hit the shot, and moved the score to 2-2, the entire Staples Center fell into silence, and the fans on the scene were completely shocked by Meng Xu's shot back against Kobe, Meng Xu's series of actions just now, is it really real? There is someone who can complete such a difficult series of movements.
