Chapter 254: Kobe Bryant is the last word

After the Trailblazers adjusted, it is normal for the Lakers to be a little unable to resist, after all, Ye Feng is not a normal person, his opposition advantage is too huge, and Artest can also cause some pressure on this guy when he was playing the third position, and he was replaced by Wharton Jr., which basically belongs to serving him food. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info helpless Phil still returned to the team's regular lineup, but interestingly, the Lakers' regular lineup and the Trail Blazers' current on-court lineup have a high degree of similarity, and the two sides may have very different playing styles, but the players in each position seem to be able to match one by one.

This time, Phil was determined to put Bynum on the bench, so he replaced Walton Jr. with Gasol and played as the team's center, while Odom returned to his best power forward position to play opposite Ye Feng. In this way, the interior line of the two sides has become a balance of power, and the Lakers may be slightly stronger. First of all, Aldridge and Gasol's style is similar, but his experience can be completely blown up by Gasol, you must know that Gasol is the interior pillar of the Spanish men's basketball team, the top center in FIBA, and made the Grizzlies a powerhouse in the West before joining the Lakers. Secondly, although Ye Feng is stronger than Odom in terms of ability, you must know that his height does not have an advantage, if the speed does not rush, as long as Odom covers him, it will be a big trouble.

The Lakers' outside line still maintains the configuration of Famar + Kobe + Artest, which is quite beneficial to them. In fact, there are few point guards of the Lakers who are excellent defensively, but fortunately, they still have Famar, and the opposite is an old guy like Miller, even if the defensive ability is not good, it can be made up for with athleticism and age advantage. And after Ye Feng took the No. 4 position, the backcourt and flanks of the Trail Blazers, no, there were no wings, just three guards, and after Miller was entangled by Famar, the remaining two people were powerless to face Kobe Bryant and Artest.

Originally, Roy could still make some resistance, but now he has a weak heart, so he can only run on the outside and shoot a three-point shot, but unfortunately it is Artest who defends him, and Artai is not old enough to run, plus Roy can't sprint all over the court like before he was injured, and it's normal to not be able to get rid of Artest's defense. Bayless simply became a cup, and he was Kobe Bryant, but Kobe didn't need to shoot with all his strength to lock up his offense, and he couldn't prevent Kobe's offense at all, which was a normal thing, but it made the Trail Blazers dig a hole for themselves.

Although the Lakers were stunned at the beginning of the second half, when they reacted, they exploded with great strength. And it can be seen from Phil's arrangement that the team's offense is basically concentrated in the hands of Kobe and Gasol, Kobe Bryant's shots are even more, in fact, this is also the proper meaning, whoever holds Kobe Bryant's big killer weapon in his hand will definitely use it very well, unless he himself doesn't feel very good, Kobe Bryant looks like he is holding back the fire to play in today's game, and it's not a good thing to make this man angry, because he will use his own score to destroy you.

After Phil made adjustments, it was Kobe Bryant's time to play, and Bayless could basically ignore it in front of him, even if he had the heart to defend, he couldn't go back. Although Kobe Bryant has begun to enter the late stage of his career in terms of age, it also means that he has polished his offensive skills more completely, knowing that Jordan's most difficult to defend step-back jumper was developed after he turned 30, after all, it is conducive to prolonging his career. And Kobe Bryant, as the "Jordan successor" who is most like Jordan, also does a good job in this regard, although he is not as difficult to score as he did in the early part of his career, but now his offense is more difficult to defend, and Bayless is obviously not good.

Kobe's full play made the point difference that was about to be erased by the Trail Blazers open up again, Ye Feng was very anxious, but he was now weak, and his offensive efficiency was completely inferior to Kobe. Whenever he holds the ball in the high post, Odom will quickly come up to defend, after all, Gasol is in charge of the basket, and with his movement speed, he can completely return to the low post to protect the basket after the high post delay, so that Ye Feng is a little difficult to do, unless he pulls outside the three-point line to give himself a sprint distance. But now it is very crowded outside the three-point line, and no matter how the three guards of the Trail Blazers are positioned, the possibility of Ye Feng being caught by a double when holding the ball on the outside line is greatly increased, and Ye Feng can only attack from near the free throw line.

This greatly reduces his threat to the basket. In fact, Ye Feng can't start to rush with the ball from here, but there is no place to speed him up, and there is no space for him to flash, plus there is a haunted Odom next to him, it is not easy for him to get close to the basket, and it is even more difficult to shoot. Therefore, it is not impossible for the wing players to swing up, but you must have plenty of space to play to your strengths, otherwise you can only struggle like Ye Feng.

Obviously, the Trail Blazers are now basically supported by Ye Feng's scoring, and his current efficiency is very low, not that the shooting rate is not high, but an attack takes too long and consumes too much physical strength, and now it is only the third quarter. Bryant, on the other hand, was like a fish in water, breaking through with the ball in a row under Bayless's resentful eyes, and then hitting a mid-range jumper. In fact, if it was the former Kobe, he would definitely burst directly to the basket and make a violent dunk, or he is very famous for folding layups, but the mid-range jumper is less burdensome for him, the shooting percentage is not low, and he can avoid injury as much as possible, so why not?

In this quarter, the Lakers stretched the difference to 10 points, in addition to Gasol scored 8 points and Odom scored 4 points, the remaining 15 points all came from Kobe, although 27 points in a single quarter is not a lot, but the Trail Blazers only scored 22 points in this quarter, Ye Feng scored 13 points, and the remaining 9 points came from Miller, Roy and Aldridge, from which you can see what the Lakers' defense is in this quarter. Ye Feng is very unwilling, but the third quarter is indeed his own problem, he is used to attributing the responsibility to himself, in fact, logically speaking, he is the person who should not be blamed, without him, the Lakers estimate that this section will directly beat the Trail Blazers, but he still has some regrets in his heart.
