Chapter 278: Kobe Bryant and Maddie

At this moment, many Lakers fans in the Forum Arena stood up!

How can the Knicks' rookie center be so brave?

His opponent is O'Neill!

Loftus-Cheek Hearn exclaimed: "It's unbelievable that the Knicks' center actually stopped the Sharks twice in a row, and this time there was no foul!" ”

Stu Lanterz said: "Yes, the referee thinks it's a good hat!" ”

After the ball was flown by the big Yao hat, it flew straight to the vicinity of the midfield. Maddie's eyes are quick, rush over to grab the ball, and go straight to the fast attack!

"Damn!"

Kobe Bryant has been defended by Maddie in these two rounds and has no offensive opportunity, how can he let the opponent score easily? He took a big step and chased straight from behind, wanting to give Maddie a chase hat!

Kobe Bryant's defense is known to be excellent. He is in very good physical condition, and the Lakers' coaching staff and teammates Eddie Jones, Derrick Harper and others have also given him very good guidance at the beginning of his career.

Maddy is getting closer and closer to the Lakers' basket, and Kobe Bryant is getting closer and closer to Maddy!

Step to the free throw line and Maddie takes to the air!

Kobe Bryant also flew at the same time!

The fans on the sidelines began to scream, because the two high school students in front of them were too physically qualified, and their ability to stay in the air was also against the sky, one wanted to dunk, the other wanted to block, and they flew together, not too good-looking!

"Oh my God!" Stu Lanterz lost his mind at this moment!

Then, there was a loud bang!

Maddie smashed the ball into the basket hard, and Kobe Bryant couldn't get it after all!

"Squeak-" A referee blew the whistle and blew a defensive foul on Kobe!

2+1, Maddie, who scored a dunk, has to add a free throw!

"Fack!" Kobe Bryant fell from the sky and began to complain loudly to the referee: "I didn't foul!" Where did I foul? This is our home turf! ”

The referee ignored him and threw the ball to Maddie.

Li Wei made a substitution, replacing Da Yao with Big Ben, and at the same time replacing Alan Houston with Nowitzki!

"Good job, rest for a while and fight!" Li Wei said to Da Yao.

"Hmm." Da Yao nodded, took the towel and began to wipe his sweat.

At the age of 18, he has been fighting against O'Neill for so long, and he also scored two goals from the other side, and the physical exertion is not ordinary!

Coach Xu, who has five sets of village women, was not happy when he saw Da Yao being replaced: "Why did Coach Li replace Da Yao again?" How well Da Yao played, scored 9 points in a row, and hatted O'Neal twice, and the state is hot, how can you replace him? ”

Teacher Song said: "It really shouldn't be, he has to let Da Yao fight for a while!" ”

The audience in front of the TV was guided by the two hosts, and they also condemned Li Wei one after another: "Da Yao played just right, why did he change it?" This coach is rubbish! ”

"Yes, if you are rigid and don't know how to be flexible, you know that you can compress Da Yao's playing time, and Da Yao is really delayed by this coach!"

"Even if it is replaced by a pig, I'm afraid it will be better than this Coach Li's command!"

Of course, Li Wei didn't know that he was pointed at by Qianfu again, but in fact, he wouldn't take it seriously if he knew, coaches are all used to take the blame, and he is no exception.

With the current strength of Da Yao, it is impossible to fight with O'Neill all over the court, and it is a more reasonable arrangement to fight for five minutes and then fight!

During the time when Da Yao was off, he sent Big Ben to consume O'Neal.

Although Big Ben is short, he is very strong, and Li Wei's request to him is not to let O'Neill squeeze into the paint area!

As we all know, O'Neill has no range, but when he enters the three-second zone, he is invincible. If you let this big guy in, then Big Ben will definitely suffer!

Someone is definitely going to say, why can't Big Ben? In the finals in 04, wasn't O'Neal blocked by Big Ben? The Lakers also lost the championship because of this?

First of all, O'Neal in '04 is 32 years old and his form is starting to decline. He averaged only 21 points per game in the playoffs that year, and nearly 30 points per game during the three-game winning streak.

Second, in that year's Finals, the Pistons actually preferred to use taller Rashid Wallace against O'Neal rather than Big Ben. Coupled with the fact that the rules at that time had been liberalized for joint defense, and many defensive giants of Big Ben and the Pistons took turns to attack, which limited O'Neal's series score to 26.6 points!

With a 63.1% shooting rate and an average of 26.6 points per game, can it be called defense?

To put it bluntly, I still didn't prevent it, the finals were the best series played by Ao Fat that season, and the reason why the Lakers lost was not because of Ao Fat, but because Kobe Bryant was undercover and Malone was injured!

In contrast, in the second round of the playoffs, the Lakers played against the Spurs, and the Spurs with Nesterovic limited Fat's scoring to 22 points!

Of course, the Spurs are not the most powerful, the most powerful is actually the Lakers' first-round opponent Rockets!

Under the defense of the sophomore Da Yao, Ao Fat averaged only 16.2 points per game, and his shooting percentage dropped to 51.5%!

Therefore, in terms of defending O'Neal, the short Big Ben can't be compared to Big Yao at all. Li Wei sent Da Ben on the field, and he didn't expect him to be able to restrain O'Neal, as long as he consumed O'Neal's physical strength to the maximum extent and won rest time for Da Yao!

O'Neal ate a big hat from Da Yao and was holding back the fire, but he never thought that the Knicks sent a short man.

"Damn, this is looking down on me more and more!"

The furious Ao Fat didn't take Big Ben as a human at all, and walked directly to the Knicks' paint area!

As soon as Big Ben saw that O'Neill was going to enter the inside line, he immediately raised his elbows and intercepted it to death!

"I'll go, you started stopping people so early?"

Looking at the paint area that was still a few steps away, O'Neill was even more aggrieved, and he must squeeze Big Ben away!

The muscular Big Ben can only be described as thin in front of O'Neill, but he has the strength to eat milk hard, and he resolutely can't let the other party underestimate him!

The more O'Neill squeezed, the more he was shocked by the power of Big Ben, and the stronger he was to not admit defeat!

The two sides are like two cows on the top of the shelf, and they have been standing together all the time!

After a long time, the sweaty Ao Fat took the lead and crushed the big book into the inner line!

"I can't hold it, this guy is a beast!" Big Ben thought depressedly.

Ao Fat, who was completely stuck in the position, stretched out his hand proudly, ready to bully people with the ball!

"Give me the ball!"

Fat was asking for the ball, but the Lakers' ball happened to pass to Kobe.

Since the opening, Ao Fat has finished playing Rice, Rice has finished playing Ao Fat, and Kobe Bryant has not touched the ball yet!

At this time, he pushed Maddie away, and finally received the pass, and it would be strange if he was willing to give it to others!

"Big brother, it's not that I didn't see you asking for a ball, but I want to score myself!"

Kobe Bryant thought so, but his hand did not hesitate, and the ball flew into the blue sky with a "swish"!

In fact, his opportunity was not very good, Maddie did not lose his position, and his hurried shot only led to one result, that is, the sound of "dang", the ball was bounced high by the basket!

Big Ben, who had been squeezed away by O'Neill, had a bright eye.

If O'Neal catches the ball and singles, he will definitely not be able to prevent it if he loses his position, but he can still fight for rebounds!

Big Ben jumped up like a spring, pulled out O'Neal's huge arm with one hand, and held the defensive rebound tightly in his arms with the other!

"Beautiful rebounds, long passes!" Li Wei on the sidelines shouted.

Big Ben quickly looked forward and saw that Charlie Ward was almost down, so he threw the ball forward!

Charlie Ward successfully received the ball, and the aging Derrick Harper couldn't keep up with his legs and feet, so he could only watch the opponent go to the basket!

At 19:4, the Knicks made a perfect start!
