Chapter 207: Popovich's Response
"Haha! Kenny, Lu has scored 5 points, and I seem to have seen the donkey's tail. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
On TNT's commentary bench, Barkley was so excited that he almost danced.
"Charles, don't rejoice too soon, the Spurs will change the defense."
Looking at Lu Xiaofeng's excited state, Smith regretted it a little, and could only refute it like this, which was also to comfort himself.
"Haha! Kenny, don't kid yourself, are the Spurs in the middle of it? What about Kobe? It's not that I underestimate Tony, but with his height, Lu will kill him. ”
In China, it happened to be Saturday morning.
CCTV Sports is another two consecutive broadcasts.
After the Chinese men's basketball team won the silver medal in the Athens Olympics, the popularity of basketball in China has reached an unprecedented height.
Correspondingly, Yao Ming and Lu Xiaofeng have also become the most popular sports stars.
Liu Xiang, who also made history, also had a three-legged relationship with them, but track and field is not as popular as basketball, and in the past month or two of the Olympics, people's attention has shifted to the NBA, which has just started the new season.
Although CCTV still broadcasts NBA games live on the second, third, sixth and fourth days, it has increased the number of live broadcasts.
The Rockets visited Memphis today, and the time happened to be staggered with the Lakers playing at home, and these two most watched games in China have of course become the best choice for continuous broadcasting.
However, I don't know if Yao Ming is unlucky, or CCTV Sports is unlucky, today Yao Ming played soy sauce again.
Although the Rockets finally won a victory after two consecutive defeats, the most eye-catching was Maddy, who played 30+10 data.
However, Yao Ming fell into foul trouble again, and the data was not as good as the last CCTV live game.
In the last game against the Pistons, I had a double-double rebound, and today all the statistics are in single digits.
The host Yu Jia was a little skeptical that he was in harmony with Yao Ming, and couldn't help laughing at himself:
"It seems that the next time I broadcast a rocket, I have to change the host, and I am simply recruiting Yao Ming!"
Commentator Shu Qun also joked:
"I think you're only fit to play Lakers games. You see, Lu Xiaofeng broke out as soon as he came. ”
"It's a pity that I couldn't broadcast the game against Jazz live, Lu Xiaofeng was the first to kill! Mr. Shu, the on-site commentary in the United States, Barkley made a bet with Smith again, what do you think? ”
"Barkley is also a very interesting person, last time he was not optimistic about Yao Ming, but he lost the bet, this time he bet on Lu Xiaofeng, and he changed his position and became optimistic about Lu Xiaofeng."
"Huh! This is 'eating a trench and growing a wisdom'. Teacher Shu, if you were asked to choose, who would you choose? Smith, or Barkley? ”
"Haha, I don't bet against you. I just checked the data, the first three games of my career, 30+ in a row, and only Chamberlain has done it. ”
"Looks like Smith is well prepared! For so many years, neither Jordan nor Iverson have done it, and the difficulty is quite high! ”
"If you forcibly brush the data, of course Lu Xiaofeng is fine, but we all know that he is obviously not the one who brushes the data, and there is Kobe Bryant as a super scorer in the team."
"Then Teacher Shu just isn't optimistic about him getting another 30+?"
"Haha, I didn't say that. It's difficult. But in case Lu Xiaofeng played the whole game again, or even overtime, then it would be no problem. ”
"And what about the 20+10 that Barkley said?"
"Barkley is also afraid of losing. But I've just looked at it, and in fact, I'm afraid that 20+10 is more difficult than 30+. Last season, against Spurs, only one person won 20+10, in fact, 30+10, guess who? ”
"There are so many points and assists, it means that the ball is in the hands of one person, and it is certainly not Kidd, I guess it is mostly Iverson."
"Yes, Iverson. If you think about the 76ers' style of play, the offensive end basically relies on Iverson to have a chance to score 30+10. The Spurs' defense is not that simple. ”
As he spoke, he came back from a timeout, and the game started again.
Lu Xiaofeng stuck too tightly when defending Parker in the last round, and this time he took a step back.
Parker's long-range shooting has a lot to do with the Nuggets' Miller.
Even in the future era when everyone shoots three-pointers, Parker's three-point shot is still unreliable.
Now, his mid-range shots are not so reliable!
Sure enough, Duncan came up to block the demolition, and Lu Xiaofeng chose to go around behind Duncan, and when he had a chance to shoot, Parker didn't dare to shoot.
Parker passed the ball to Duncan, and Odom posted it, and after a day of rest, his motivation was noticeably much better.
However, in the next split, the Lakers' defense collapsed.
Ginobili in the bottom corner suddenly ran back and rushed inside, and Duncan's pass was all he could say.
On the other side, Meme couldn't react and could only watch Ginobili score a simple layup.
Like the Lakers, the Spurs' one, two, four, and three positions can organize the team.
"If you can't prevent it, then let's fight against it!"
Lu Xiaofeng, who was slowly dribbling forward, thought secretly.
But as soon as he crossed the halfway line, Parker posted it.
"Look, Charles, the Spurs' defense has changed, and Lu wants to score again, but it's not that easy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xiaofeng accelerated and burst in from the left.
Parker didn't foul, just followed closely, and never let Lu Xiaofeng vacate.
While rushing in, Lu Xiaofeng was observing the Spurs' defense and found that the other two outside lines did not retreat to make up for the defense.
Only Duncan, ignoring Odom, who was pulled out, blocked Lu Xiaofeng's breakthrough route.
Without a good passing opportunity, Lu Xiaofeng continued to rush in, but as soon as he entered the three-second zone, he was covered by Duncan.
Duncan raised his arms high, and Parker was entangled beside him, and Lu Xiaofeng suddenly lost the confidence to shoot directly.
In a blink of an eye, Lu Xiaofeng still chose to pass the ball.
There was no other option but to pass to Odom at forty-five degrees to the left.
"Very easy breakthrough, the right choice, Lamar has a chance, throw it, give Lu Tian an assist."
Barkley didn't bother to refute Smith when he saw Lu Xiaofeng's movements, but the next moment, he exclaimed:
"Nope! Bad decision! Lamar is an idiot. ”
Odom was known as the "left-handed magician" back then, and of course he was an all-round player, with good organization, scoring, and defense, both inside and outside.
But he just can't be a magician.
Why?
Technically, it's proficient in everything, but it's sparse in everything, and there is no reliable means of scoring.
Whether it's a mid-range shot or a three-point shot, he has it, but he's not sure.
Out of the big vacancy, he didn't make a decisive shot, but after hesitating, he dribbled and rushed in.
But Duncan was waiting in the three-second zone, and when he saw Odom rushing in, he didn't jump at all, raised his arms high, and slid down on his feet, blocking Odom in front of him.
There were no blocks, no steals, but Duncan's defense made Odom's left-handed layup have to change his shooting stance.
Not to mention scoring goals, after the ball hit the board, it smashed on the basket and bounced back directly.
Lu Xiaofeng was about to rush to grab the rebound, but Duncan turned around and grabbed the basketball with both hands.
Lu Xiaofeng jumped high enough, but he was a step slower.
Lu Xiaofeng turned around and was about to return to defense, but Duncan held the ball and threw it directly to the front court.
At some point, Parker was already running to the halfway line.
Kobe Bryant chased up, but it was obvious that Parker's speed was much faster, and a backhand layup made Kobe's chase fail.
"Charles, what do you think?"
"Kenny, there's more than forty minutes left in the game!"
