Chapter 229: Battier vs Kobe
Strictly speaking, Battier's individual defense is still a little worse than Bowen's. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Bowen seems to be a little better at agility and bounce than Battier.
In one-on-one, Bowen's blocking, even Kobe Bryant is very jealous.
And against Battier, Bryant's bounce can ignore his block.
However, that doesn't mean it's easier to hit Battier.
His height and reach, combined with his very fast lateral movement, always blocked Kobe Bryant.
He's very smart to play, he hardly makes any mistakes defensively, and he's good at taking advantage of his teammates' help, and if he's not careful, he'll be thrown into the bag.
And even if you break through his defense, you have to be on guard against him at all times when facing others.
He averaged 1.1 blocks per game, not one-on-one, but when he was helping to defend.
Generally speaking, the assistant defense master is the center or power forward on the inside, and when the opponent breaks through the outside defense and rushes in, they will make up for it, interfere with the shot or reward a big hat.
Kirilenko is a category, but his exaggerated reach is not inferior to those excellent interior players.
And Battier, like Lu Xiaofeng, is a rare outside defense master.
In this regard, Bowen can not compare with him.
Tonight, Bryant faced Battier's shadowy, kraft-like defense, and he knew this very well.
He was able to pull out in front of Battier, but Battier didn't have much to do about it, just stretched out his hand to block his view.
But with such a difficult dry pull-up shot, and then Battier stretched out his hand to seal his eyes, of course, the shooting rate cannot be guaranteed.
Kobe Bryant tried a few times and found that his hand was not good enough to go against the sky tonight, so he decisively gave up this style of play.
But as soon as he wants to break through or hit his back, Battier's defense will immediately increase in intensity.
Battier will not be easily fooled, nor will he be needless to foul.
Every time Kobe Bryant attacked, it was very difficult.
However, Kobe's personality is like that.
Others are "don't hit the south wall and don't look back", he hits the wall and doesn't look back.
Never admit defeat and never bow your head.
If you can't knock it down once, then twice.
If you can't knock it down twice, then three times.
He always believes that it is not that the opponent's defense is too good, but that his attack is not sharp enough.
He also saw that Lu Xiaofeng had a problem tonight, he was absent-minded and had no desire to attack.
If it were someone else, he might blame Lu Xiaofeng and complain about Lu Xiaofeng at the first time.
Or, a team leader like Duncan will remind Lu Xiaofeng in due course.
But Kobe Bryant is Kobe, and he won't.
The first thing that came to his mind was that his performance was not good enough.
As the boss of the team, what should I do when my teammates don't perform well?
In Kobe's heart, it's on his own.
Defensively, it's a bit more aggressive.
If you can't prevent it, you have to score more points than your opponent.
In his opinion, this kind of time is the time for his team to turn the tide.
Isn't basketball all about who scores more points?
That's what he's good at.
Perhaps, in the eyes of others, one person cannot score as many people.
But in Bryant's dictionary, there's no impossible.
If you can't win with 30 points, then take 40 points, 50 points, 60 points.
In his mind, as long as he scores enough points, there is always hope of winning.
The Grizzlies relied on Gasol and the team to attack and keep scoring.
The Lakers, on the other hand, changed their bombardment style in the previous games and fell into the rhythm of the Grizzlies.
Bryant challenged Battier again and again, making pull-up jumpers, pull-up jumpers, step-back jumpers, and breakaway layups......
Even though Kobe Bryant's hand didn't feel good tonight, Battier still couldn't prevent Kobe from killing - who can prevent Kobe from killing him?
With more than five minutes to play, Bryant broke through Battier again and scored inside.
Facing White, who was making up for the defense, Kobe Bryant's basketball was collected in his arms, gliding in the air, flashing the block, and flying under the basket.
On the other side of the basket, Bryant flipped his wrist and the basketball spun and flew towards the rebound.
Bryant fell outside the baseline, the referee's whistle blew, and the basketball flicked on the rebound and fell cleanly into the net.
Ignoring the Grizzlies' protests, the referee motioned for White to block the foul.
Bryant sat on the ground with a cool expression on his face and gestured effectively to score the ball.
Lu Xiaofeng also rushed over with his teammates and pulled Kobe Bryant up, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at the girls behind the basket.
He was still greeted by the heart-pounding autumn waves - the three girls had different postures, but they were all full of affection.
For a moment, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but think of their respective seductive styles.
Zhao Yuwei, who had a bulging shirt on her chest, the tempting mountains and deep valleys, and Lu Xiaofeng, who had really appreciated the scenery, knew how slippery, soft and elastic the milky white skin was.
Chen Yuhan, who is tall and cold and more glamorous than a supermodel, under the loose trousers, the long and straight pair of long legs, not only looks cool, but also feels more refreshing, not only is it smooth and elastic, Lu Xiaofeng knows that when they are coiled around the waist, they are also very powerful.
And He Xiaoyi, who is slender, not only has a smiling face like a flower like melon seeds, a cherry mouth and two pink red lips, Lu Xiaofeng, who has tasted it, knows that there is a flexible little fragrant tongue inside, and the delicate and tight little buttocks are even more flavorful.
When Kobe Bryant made free throws, Lu Xiaofeng was thinking about the passionate picture of the day.
Kobe Bryant turned around and high-fived him, only to wake him up.
Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly shook his head, calmed down, and then suppressed the picture in his mind.
The Grizzlies switched to Swift, a jumper, and Gasol played to the center position.
Bryant hit a free throw, two plus one, and the score came to 15:16.
Relying on Kobe's personal attack, the Lakers and the Grizzlies were deadlocked, only one point behind.
In order to concentrate, Lu Xiaofeng simply pressed directly towards the "white chocolate".
Lu Xiaofeng has been sleepwalking, and he originally attached great importance to his "white chocolate", but he inevitably had a little contempt for him.
"Good ball, Williams was careless!"
"Haha! Scramble, laughing wind will win! ā
"Yay? Wrong. It's not a scrum, it's a laughing foul! ā
"It's a black whistle! At the same time, how can you blow a foul when you fall to the ground and grab the ball? ā
"Indeed, this whistle is a bit far-fetched."
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly pressed, Williams was caught off guard, and quickly turned around, but the basketball was slapped out by Lu Xiaofeng.
The basketball left his hand, just behind him, Williams turned around and fell to the ground, and Lu Xiaofeng pounced directly.
thought it was a scrum, but the referee thought that Williams got the ball first, and Lu Xiaofeng fouled.
However, being blown by the referee like this, Lu Xiaofeng competed with Williams, and his attention was much more concentrated.
When it came to the frontcourt, Williams, who was tightly defended by Lu Xiaofeng, had no chance, and directly gave the ball to Gasol, who pulled it out.
Williams got to the bottom corner, and Miller and Battier started to run.
While the Lakers' defense was being distracted, Williams suddenly slipped under the basket.
Lu Xiaofeng's attention was also on Miller, and he found that when Gasol passed the ball, he was already a step slower.
But his reaction was too fast, and he jumped up as soon as he turned around and took a stride.
NBA players who haven't played against Lu Xiaofeng will always underestimate his reaction speed, flexibility and bounce.
"White Chocolate" is no exception.
If he made a feint on this ball, maybe Lu Xiaofeng would fly out.
But he wanted to take a quick shot before the Lakers returned to the defense, and immediately made a layup as soon as he received the ball.
"Oops! Under the basket! Laughing Wind Leak - Oh! Strike! ā
"Haha! It's a pegboard hat! The laughter is so powerful! ā
Lu Xiaofeng grabbed the basketball directly.
When he turned around, Kobe Bryant had already run, and without hesitation, he passed the ball directly.
Kobe Bryant was not alone, and Battier reacted quickly enough to chase after him.
Lu Xiaofeng passed the ball and chased after it.
It's the Lakers' familiar two-on-one fast break again.
As soon as he crossed the halfway line, Bryant passed the ball and rushed to the basket from the right side empty-handed.
Battier kept dropping back, adjusting his pace and trying to defend.
As soon as he got the ball, Lu Xiaofeng rushed straight to the basket.
Battier hurriedly turned sideways to face him, ready to block.
According to Lu Xiaofeng's previous style of play, he must have changed the rhythm of this ball, attracted Battier's defense, and then passed Kobe.
But in an instant, thinking of a few girls on the sidelines, Lu Xiaofeng had an idea in his heart.
He didn't slow down, he didn't change direction, he was ready for a show.
"Hah! Here it comes! Aggro! Slam dunk? ā
The host of Jiangcheng TV was excited, Lu Xiaofeng really lived up to expectations, just came to a pegboard hat, and immediately had a fast dunk.
As soon as Battier saw Lu Xiaofeng's posture, his feet were nailed to the ground, his hands raised high, and he didn't move.
Lu Xiaofeng only had the basket in his eyes, as soon as his foot stepped into the three-second zone, he kicked the ground violently, and flew up, his left hand was in front of him, and his right hand held the basketball high, and smashed it towards the basket.
"Oh! Slam dunk! Slam dunk! Laughing Wind rode Batyr! It's so exciting! ā
Seeing Lu Xiaofeng's successful dunk and Battier falling under the basket, the host screamed excitedly.
"A wonderful dunk indeed! However, it seems that the referee blew for a foul! ā
"Is it two plus one?"
"Look at the referee's gesture, it should be an offensive foul! You look at the slow-motion replays, Battier is standing outside the reasonable collision zone, and he is really a very good defense! This foul was blown accurately! ā
"It's a pity! But although it doesn't count, this dunk is really exciting! ā
"Xiaofeng has committed two crimes, I'm afraid I will be replaced."
