Chapter 248: Slap in the face
When the whistle blew, Totoro immediately put all the things in his mind out of his mind, no matter how difficult this mother-in-law is, it is also after this game, I heard Lufa say that their family has never watched basketball, and today people came to watch the game in order to see him, he must perform well.
But fortunately, this old lady is not a Lakers fan, otherwise Totoro may be in a worse situation now, winning or losing, and that special mother is the most painful.
At the beginning of the game, the referee threw the basketball into the air, Yao Ming and Bynum jumped up and scrum at the same time, although Da Yao's reaction speed was obviously a few tenths of a second faster than Bynum, but his 10CM bounce was an irreparable hard injury, and the basketball was won by the Lakers first.
Fisher took the ball and dribbled it to the front court and distributed it to Bryant outside the three-point line, while he silently ran to the bottom corner as a three-point battery.
Battier looked at the boss stubbornly, this person who is not tall, not short, not fat or thin, is the most active player in the NBA, obviously Kobe Bryant's physical fitness is not too top-notch in all aspects, but as long as the volute wants to score, no one can stop him, and the only thing that can stop him is himself and the basket.
Battier and Iguodala are responsible for rotating to defend Kobe Bryant today, and both of them are ready to be exploded in their hearts, but a 30-point score is a blow-up, and a 40-point score is also a blow-up, and the first brother and the president are not prepared to let themselves be blown up too ugly.
Surprisingly, today's boss didn't seem to be normal, he didn't choose to be strong Battier, but instead gave the ball to Ariza on the sideline after two crotches at the top of the arc.
it? What's going on?
Everyone was stunned, there are five people on the Lakers court, Kobe Bryant is the most offensive master, if Kobe doesn't have a chance, the ball should also let Bynum or Gasol attack, Ariza and Fisher's task on the offensive end is to catch the ball and shoot open three-pointers, they have never held the ball to hit others.
My Neighbor Totoro was also stunned, he should be the easiest person on the court logically, as long as he doesn't miss people, Ariza has almost no chance to score, but judging from the fact that he has the ball now, this thing won't want to single himself, right?
My neighbor totoro just thought that it was impossible on his front foot, and at the next moment he was slapped in the face by Tie Zha hard, and Ariza actually made a tentative step towards him, bending down and making a triple threat, looking like this was going to hit him at this point!
Hey, My Neighbor Totoro is happy, not to mention that the Rockets have the best defense, and he is also one of the best defensive players in the team, if you let Kobe Bryant play the master, just send a bean bag over, you are really the king of blocks in my team, and the steal king is fake?
My neighbor Totoro understood the other party's intentions, and instead of retreating, he directly stepped forward two steps and used his body to resist Ariza, Tieza's bells and whistles instantly froze, he has the ability to dribble, but that bit of dribbling ability can be used in the NBA, that is, fast-break layups, and it is still far from breaking through Ariza with the dribble.
Breaking through and breaking through can't work, and there is a danger of being capped by forcing three points on the back, Ariza has no choice but to share the ball back, but Totoro is waiting for this moment.
Stretching out his hand and stabbing quickly, Ariza found that the ball in his hand was gone, and looking back, Totoro had already dribbled the ball to his own half, and only Kobe Bryant sent a heel to it.
My Neighbor Totoro was transported to the three-point line, and he originally wanted to complete the dunk directly in three steps, but suddenly found that there seemed to be one more person behind him, and he glanced at it with a little afterglow, isn't that Kobe Bryant, who has always been far more competitive than ordinary people?
Seeing the volute running towards him with murderous energy, he was cunning by nature and immediately had a plan, Totoro, who could have completed the dunk straightforwardly, suddenly slowed down, from the three steps at the beginning to three slow steps, this kind of large-scale change in rhythm, so that experienced people can know at a glance that Totoro wants to make fouls!
But some competitive players can never change their paranoia, just like the current Kobe, and like Westbrook who just entered the league, they also see that Totoro wants to make their own fouls, but they will fly forward without hesitation to prepare a block, for no other reason, because they don't have the word back down in the dictionary.
But Geng Zhi is sometimes a good thing, but most of the time Geng Zhi's side is the one who suffers, My Neighbor Totoro deliberately waited for Kobe to get close before jumping under the basket to make a shot, and the boss also flew into the air as he expected.
"Hey, here's the chance for 2+1!"
My Neighbor Totoro thought in his heart, he even thought about the words of the boss when he was waiting for the free throw, leaned on the volute, and when he heard the whistle, Totoro immediately started to jump and dunk with both feet.
However, when he was about to raise his head, he suddenly found that his eyes were dark, and a huge black palm was constantly magnifying in his field of vision.
"it!"
My neighbor totoro was shocked, what does he care about 2+1 at this time, if he didn't dodge well, this strength was enough for his own fracture, he threw the ball to the basket casually, and his head shrank to prepare to dodge, but he didn't learn Shaolin Temple kung fu, where could he completely dodge in a hurry, and finally he was hit the head, and was directly slapped to the ground by the boss from the sky.
"Poof."
My neighbor Totoro fell heavily to the ground, and suddenly felt that his whole world was a star, the referee blew the whistle, and after a little consideration, he gave Kobe Bryant an ordinary foul, and the fans immediately sent boos to the referee, and at the same time, the boss also complained with a dissatisfied face next to him, feeling that his ball should not be judged a foul.
"Nima stinks hi!"
Then Totoro, who witnessed the whole process, exploded, he first wanted to hit this referee, because the foul that rushed people and didn't rush the ball just now was at least a technical foul, and the focus of a slight judgment could even give him a second-level malicious foul to send him off, but I didn't expect this shit referee to only award an ordinary foul, has he ever got a referee license?
The second person who wants to beat him to death is Kobe, what foul did he have in his heart? actually got cheap and good, it's not a thing that is really TM, it's really awesome to be the first person in the alliance.
Originally, Totoro had a little respect for Kobe, after all, people get up every day to watch the sun at four o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles, and he is also half a Los Angeles person, but now after this time, he no longer has any good feelings for Volute.
But the gas is angry, Totoro thought about it and still didn't come forward to find Kobe to come to a full martial arts, today his mother-in-law can sit on the sidelines to watch him play, what he said today is to give people a good baby image, otherwise if there is nothing to do all day long, find someone to fight, who can rest assured that his daughter will be put to him.
I don't know if it's because of the bad luck, Totoro has always made one of two free throws nine times out of ten, and his record of 132 consecutive free throws from the regular season to the playoffs has also come to an end.
Before Totoro, Michael Williams was the record holder in 1993, he once made 97 consecutive free throws without conceding, but this record has long been surpassed by Totoro and forced a 35-goal improvement from the original record.
Many fans watched Totoro walk to the free throw line, and they knew that Totoro's free throw shooting was stable, and his free throw shooting rate was as high as 99.1%, which is the record of all players in the NBA who made more than 100 free throws in a single season.
Bynum protected the rebound, the old fish Fisher continued to rush to the front court to give it to Kobe, this time the volute did not choose to give the ball to Ariza, but followed Gasol's cover breakthrough, saw Randolph delay on the line and then a smart turn, and finally faced Yao Ming with a reverse pull-up layup, directly past the Rockets three people, 1 v3 scored enough to enter the top ten goals of the year.
Staples Arena suddenly fell into a sea of joy, the Purple and Gold fans waved their flags and shouted as if the Lakers had entered the finals, and Totoro cursed in his heart next to him, and ran to the half court without looking back.
The Lakers are indeed not simple, and Kobe Bryant really can't prevent it, outsiders in front of him seem to see that the volute is only a dozen or three wins, in fact, Totoro knows in his heart that Kobe Bryant was a dozen or four in that round just now.
was slapped in the face, of course Totoro wanted to retaliate back, and he was already aiming at the other party the moment he received the ball from Kobe Bryant just now, ready to wait for the big hat to retaliate the moment he shot.
But who knows that the nagging seems to have long eyes behind him, and the smart turn not only passed Randolph, but also allowed Randolph to block himself from supplementing the defense, which is a bit evil, if it is not a coincidence, Totoro can only say that the NBA stars are all perverts, and even this can be calculated, are they really basketball?
But it doesn't matter, there are many ways to hit people in the face, if the defense can't beat him, he can play back in the offense, no one in the Lakers can limit themselves, Wharton Jr. and Ariza are not heavy enough, Odom is not fast enough, Kobe Bryant and Vuljacic are not tall enough, and he can beat the Lakers a forward line by himself.
Totoro asked for the ball from Calderon's side, Ariza suddenly felt like a big enemy, today he has the heaviest defensive burden, Yao Ming's words can be wrapped inside, but Totoro has no one to help him on the outside, how far he can limit Totoro today, that is, the key to whether the Lakers can win.
And then sometimes if the talent difference between two people is too great, no matter how serious the attitude is, it can't change anything.
As soon as Totoro's ass sat inside, Ariza stepped back, and although Ariza used his strength to push up, Totoro was 15 pounds heavier than him, and his body fat percentage was 2 percent lower than him, which is the fact that the attitude cannot be changed.
In the end, Gasol, who was still on the inside, couldn't stand it anymore, leaving Randolph alone to help Ariza help defend, Totoro immediately transferred the ball to Yao Ming's hands, Kobe Bryant came in from the outside to wrap the little giant, okay, at this time, the four Lakers were attracted to the inside line, and only Lao Yu alone defended three on the outside.
In the end, Calderon, who was at the top of the arc, received the opportunity, and the outside three-pointer rose and fell, and the Rockets led the Lakers 4:2.
The Zen master frowned off the court, the Lakers have no shortcomings on the inside and outside, but they are stretched thin on small forwards and point guards, Odom is no longer the golden left hand he used to be since he had Kardashian, although Ariza has the potential of the forward gate but he is too young, if he meets a small forward of James, Anthony, Totoro and other levels, he really has no good way to limit them.
Obviously, Kobe Bryant also found out about this, but Totoro doesn't play against him, and the boss can't beat Totoro, but it doesn't matter, if you can't prevent it, it's just to score with yourself, Ariza can't prevent Totoro, can Battier prevent me?
Bryant followed up with Gasol and Bynum's double cover for a three-in, three-out, and when he caught the open space, he hit a picturesque mid-range shot and the ball landed firmly to the basket.
"Hold the grass, this kid is a little accurate today! Did you slap Lao Tzu so you absorbed a little bit of the master's luck? ”
My Neighbor Totoro sighed when he saw the two goals scored by Kobe Bryant in two consecutive rounds, he knew that Battier had done what he could, especially the second ball, which could be rounded out twice and tried his best to seal the opponent's eyes, and Kobe's ability to throw in was completely a matter of feel.
My Neighbor Totoro sighed with emotion, he was still not soft on the offensive end, using his physical advantage to force Ariza to break through, in order to attract people to wrap himself, Totoro He obviously broke through and had to pull back in disguise with an emergency stop, so he repeatedly showed off several waves of ball skills, and the unlucky Tiezha finally had a foot that did not stand firm and was shaken to the floor by Totoro.
This will be Fisher to come up to make up for the defense, Totoro hurriedly handed the ball to Calderon on the outside, Kobe Bryant made up again, Calderon gave it to Battier, and Battier in the bottom corner made a three-point shot and steadily put the basketball into the basket.
The Rockets really have the best chance to win the championship this year, Yao Ming and Totoro in the team are definitely superstars, and others also have their own characteristics, for example, the president is a particularly good 3D player, with high defensive efficiency, clean action, and very stable three-point shots, as long as it is an open shot, almost can hit; Iguodala has a tough defense and a variety of scoring methods; Calderon has excellent three-point shooting and an excellent view of the big picture; Lowry has a sharp breakthrough, excellent physical fitness, and high training potential; David Lee and Randolph were also strong defenders in the box; Mutombo, who has not been on the court, is the spiritual leader of the team, and almost everyone in the Rockets' roster is useful, everyone can play, such a team where everyone is a soldier, it is really difficult for other teams to beat them.
7:4。
But Kobe Bryant didn't agree with this reasoning, he would not even save Fisher the effort of letting the ball dribble through the half, and he dribbled the ball two steps away from the three-point line to shoot, and the basketball rebounded and bounced into the net.
7:7。
Kobe Bryant single-handedly tied the Rockets with the entire team, and the whole court was full of praise from fans for his scoring ability.
