Chapter 145: Kobe vs Sun Yue
Sun Yue not only played gorgeously today, but the pace of the game was also mentioned by him very quickly, and the Lakers couldn't control the team's rhythm at all today. Bryant does not allow opponents to go wild on their own turf, and the Lakers' overall offensive and defensive speed is extremely fast, and no one can make Kobe Bryant obey the command at this time, even if it is a Zen master.
As the game continued, especially under the influence of the Hawks under the leadership of Sun Yue, the Lakers completely lost their rhythm, followed the Hawks to run wildly, the shooting choice was no longer so reasonable, and what was worse was that although the Hawks no longer had a serious center to stand on the court, the Lakers' interior line could not receive the ball at all, and the point difference was gradually narrowed.
Bryant, who was desperate to stabilize the team, missed both shots, and he looked a little impatient and made a passing error.
Sun Yue came to the front court with the ball, McGee hurriedly defended, he had been teased by Sun Yue once, he didn't dare to use any side door, so he could only defend Sun Yue head-on. Sun Yue bent down, and he began to shake in a change of direction. McGee stood in front of him with her hands outstretched, trying to interfere.
However, after Sun Yue changed backwards, McGee was in chaos, Sun Yue was not in a hurry, a simple in-out back and forth to change the rhythm, McGee could no longer organize an effective defense, Sun Yue drove straight in and went to the meeting alone.
"Boom!" Sun Yue hung on the basket, and his breath ran through Changhong.
McGee's defense is terrible, and the Lakers' interior defense is also a mess.
Sun Yue's dunk provoked an exclamation in the Staples arena, and the Lakers' defense made Lakers fans unbearable to look at directly. In fact, instead of blaming the Lakers' defense, this ball is better to say that Sun Yue's breakthrough is too fast.
The way to break through on the basketball court is like a starry sky, but in summary, there are roughly seven types.
The first type: the pace type. Using the European step or the slow three steps to break through, Ginobili and Dwyan. Wade, and later James. Harden is a master of the game.
The second type: redirection. Using the constant change of direction of the dribble to murder the opponent's ankle to achieve a breakthrough, Allen. Iverson, Delon. Williams, "Penny" Hardaway is typical.
The third type: variable speed rhythm type, using the constant change of dribbling rhythm and foot movement to create space for yourself to break through, such as Kobe. Bryant, Stephen. Nash, Grant before the big injury. Hill et al.
Fourth: the first step type. The first step to break through with a quick and fast start and excel at this is a very talented player, with Tracy Maddy and his cousin, "Half-Man" Carter among the best.
The fifth: power type. Push away the opponent with super strength to complete the breakthrough, LeBron. James, Ron. Artest is a master of this.
Sixth: Absolute velocity type. Cutting into the box at lightning speed, Tony. Parker, Allen. Iverson and T.J. Ford were both good at it.
Seventh: the feint type. With a variety of feints to achieve a breakthrough, Kobe Bryant and Paul. Pierce is the master of the masters.
Except for the fifth power-type breakthrough Sun Yue can't do, he is proficient in other breakthrough methods, for Sun Yue, who has good speed, rhythm, and feints, it is not difficult to tear through the opponent's defense and break through the penalty area.
Sun Yue's excellent play made Jessica. Alba's eyes lit up, she didn't expect Sun Yue to still have such an outstanding performance after coming to the NBA, she said sincerely: "The skipper's performance is really good, it seems that the Lakers are a little dangerous." ”
However, Nicholson, a die-hard Lakers fan sitting next to Alba, was very calm, he pouted his lips and said to Alba: "Don't worry, Kobe Bryant will respond soon." ”
Nicholson, who has never lost a game at home for the Lakers, knows significantly more about the Lakers and Kobe than Alba, who only occasionally watches Lakers games.
McGee brought the basketball to the frontcourt, and then he quickly handed the basketball to Kobe, who had been beckoning for the ball. Bryant, Sun Yue's successive rampant attacks on the Lakers' interior made Bryant furious, and he decided he needed to respond on the offensive end.
Kobe Bryant singled Mark at a 45-degree angle on the left wing, and when he used his feet to break through into the paint area, Sun Yue at the top of the arc immediately let go of his defensive McGee to wrap Kobe Bryant, McGee was dispensable outside the three-point line, compared to Kobe's threat was much greater.
Mark and Sun Yue are full of tacit understanding, they are also very disciplined for Kobe's bag, when Kobe dribbles, Mark defends his strong hand in front of him, gives him a direction to break through from the weak side, Sun Yue assists in defense from Kobe's weak hand, stifles his start and plays a role in wrapping, forcing Kobe to die ball, and when Kobe dies, the two of them seal it together and stick to him, raise their hands high, and compress his space at the same time.
Kobe, who was sandwiched by the two, didn't panic, took the ball a little higher, Sun Yue and Mark jumped up, Kobe Bryant hurriedly caught up, twisted his body and threw the basketball out...... Drip!
The basketball was still in the air when the referee blew the whistle...... It was an indisputable thug foul.
Sun Yue and Mark were both annoyed, this bag was almost successful, but unfortunately it fell short at the last minute.
"Whew!", the sound of the basketball falling into the Nets made the Staples Arena boil.
After Kobe Bryant made a free throw, the basketball was handed over to Sun Yue again, Sun Yue lowered his rhythm and moved forward unhurriedly, as the team's point guard, he controlled the team's offensive rhythm.
When he reached beyond the three-point line, McGee came up on defense again.
Sun Yue suddenly changed direction, and McGee was immediately shaken to the side, although his defensive awareness was good, but the drag of age and injuries made him look like a pendulum that had been plucked at random.
After being shaken away, McGee hurriedly and actively made up for it, and Sun Yue made another reverse swing, and there was an empty position in an instant, which gave Sun Yue enough time to jump out.
When Sun Yue jumped to the top, McGee came to defense, but it was too late.
Sun Yue sent the basketball out of the basket in the most comfortable way, as he had done in the training gym for countless nights.
"Brush!", the basketball pierces the net with precision.
Seeing that the team's score advantage was about to be slowly approached, Kobe Bryant soon returned to the color, and he had to start scoring, this time he took advantage of two screens from his teammates, received the ball and fired a direct three-point shot in the bottom right corner of the basket.
This was the last goal of the first quarter of the two teams, the Hawks 27: Lakers 31, although Kobe Bryant in the first quarter was difficult to resist, but in the second half of the first quarter, the Hawks were led by the explosive Sun Yue with ferocious offensive firepower, narrowing the score gap to 4 points to end the first quarter.
