Chapter 66 [Shrek is sharp, black mamba has no solution]

After only one minute of the game, the Lakers lost their second leader, and only Kobe Bryant, the "supreme treasure", was left.

Bryant took the free throw instead, hitting both free throws.

2 to 4.

The Lakers were forced to replace Odom with Radmanovich.

Jeff Van Gundy had a look of joy on his face, and just after the opening game, the Lakers lost a big man, and the Rockets seemed to win.

It's a pity that it won't go so well, because the Lakers still have Kobe, the one who can change the tide of the game on his own.

"Oh, the Rockets attacked, Alston adjusted the inside, Yao Ming received the ball and brought it in...... Mistaken. Bryant took the ball down from behind. Drexler said.

The ball went to Wharton, and then to Kobe. The Lakers launched a fast break, and Bryant dribbled the ball to outside the three-point line on the right side, and he didn't hesitate to pull up a jumper. Strike! Hollow into the net! Kobe's hands are hot today, and the Rockets should be careful. Matt Bullard shouted.

2 to 7.

The winning streak has built up the confidence of the whole Rockets team, and although Kobe Bryant scored 7 points in a row, he couldn't make waves in everyone's hearts.

Alston took the ball to the front court and handed it to Yao Ming, Yao Ming received the ball very steadily this time, dribbled and turned around and jumped.

4 to 7.

Kwame Brown defends Yao Ming's turnaround jumper and can only use the method of prayer, praying that God will make Yao Ming unable to shoot. God of Heaven did not watch the game, so the prayer was invalid.

Smush Parker dribbled the ball across the front court and handed it to Bryant.

Kwame Brown pulled Yao Ming out. Give Kobe Bryant a pick-and-roll. Bryant started quickly and broke through Battier and Yao Ming. Seeing this, Hayes immediately came up to the defense.

Bryant jumped up and threw the ball off the perimeter and handed it to Radmanovic. The latter hit a three-point jumper from the corner.

4 to 10.

It is said that Kobe Bryant has a unique style of play, but he has also assisted a lot of 10 games. If his teammate is in a good position, he will definitely pass the ball.

"Tactic 3!" Jeff Van Gundy shouted at Alston from the sidelines.

After passing half-court, Als passed the ball to Hayes, Howard stepped forward to block and jammed Radmanovic in the back, and the Lakers switched defenses, and the man facing Hayes was replaced by Luke Wharton.

Hayes broke through to the inside, and he clearly had the upper hand in the power confrontation with Wharton, squeezing Wharton to the basket with his body.

Kwame Brown immediately stepped up but it was too late and Hayes scored with a cricket kick.

6 to 10.

Jeff Van Gundy's original tactics were to focus on Yao Ming, and he still had some concerns about Odom's defense. Now that Odom is off, whether it is 208cm Radmanovic or 203cm Luke Wharton, the style of play is soft and cannot be compared with Hayes.

The Lakers attacked, and Kobe Bryant came again. This time, he didn't make a turnaround jumper. If Kobe Bryant can throw the ball in every time he faces a face-sealing defense, then the Rockets can throw in the towel.

Hayes protects the backcourt rebound.

The Rockets attacked again, still the same tactics, to the frontcourt to Hayes. Jeff Van Gundy's idea is simple, the Lakers are missing a big man and the interior is empty. At this time, I will take advantage of your illness and kill you.

Veteran Howard then blocked Hayes, who dribbled the ball into the three-point line. In basketball, just make good use of the pick-and-roll. It's not a difficult thing to pass, and the player doesn't need to be fast, as long as the first step can shake off the opponent.

This is the most important attack that Hayes learned from Maddie. Quick start, dry pull-up jumper.

Wharton was a step slower to switch defenses, and although he interfered with Hayes, he couldn't block it, and Hayes hit another two points.

8 to 10.

Hayes scored in a row, and Bryant's eyes became sharper.

Bryant took the ball in the high post and dribbled sideways to the free throw line.

He couldn't shake off Battier, and Hayes was in that position, the equivalent of finding the quilt himself.

Bryant attracted the bag and didn't pass the ball, but jumped back to make a jumper with all his might, which Battier couldn't cover, and under the interference, Bryant hit again.

8 to 12.

"Kobe Bryant's ball still relies on his individual ability, his step-back jumper is difficult to block, and shortly after the game started, Kobe Bryant has scored 9 points, if this momentum continues, it will be terrible." Drexler praised.

"The Lakers are now determined to play Kobe Bryant, and Kobe Bryant can play 100% energy if he doesn't pass the ball. The Rockets must find a way to contain his offense. Matt Bullard said: "Or, if the Rockets can guarantee offensive success, Hayes catches the ball again. Still relying on the pick-and-roll, went in, and the jump shot also went in. ”

10 to 12.

Although Hayes has a strength advantage, after all, he is only 198cm tall, and he can't do it high on the Lakers' inside. It's a good idea to pull to the perimeter and shoot. Hayes is very sure of his mid-range shot right now, and I think he's a lot like Elton Brand right now, inside and out. Drexler smiled: "The Lakers still play Kobe, if Kobe keeps this feeling, the Rockets will be in big trouble." didn't rely on pick-and-roll, or Battier's single defense. ”

Kobe Bryant stood on the left side outside the three-point line, bent his body slightly, and looked at Battier in front of him, his eyes became sharp.

Then he suddenly started up, shook off Battier in one step, and immediately jumped for a three-point shot.

Battier jumps with all his might. But Kobe Bryant's hand is too good. As soon as the ball was thrown, he raised his arm. Basketball hollow into the net.

10 to 15.

Kobe Bryant's offensive methods are somewhat similar to Maddie's, both of which start the jump shot in one step, and the accuracy of the shot is more terrible than anything else.

That's Kobe Bryant, he's almost unguarded when he's on the go, and he's able to shoot the ball in all positions.

It's not hard to shoot, but it's not every player who can get tangled up with opponents from the outside, creating small spaces and short bursts of time to shoot accurately. If you want to ensure a hit rate, it is even more difficult. So, very few people dare to play like that, and the coaches don't like to see the players do it.

But Kobe Bryant has the guts, and he has a certain shooting percentage. The pressure that his opponents put all their might on him often faded in his superb dribbling rhythm and soft shooting touch.

After the goal, many Rockets home fans also applauded Kobe, which is the charm of Kobe. Even if you know that his style of play is not reasonable, you can't deny his super ability.

Hayes looked at Kobe Bryant and thought to himself: I always shoot with someone putting his hand on his face, I don't believe you can shoot every time!

Even if you can get in half, will you be able to stop me?

Hayes took the ball from beyond the three-point line again and paused. It was still Radmanovic who was guarding him, and Howard was running again......

Kobe Bryant is responsible for defending Battier, who is not good at attacking with the ball, which is not difficult for him, so while defending, he can also observe Hayes with the rest of his eyes.

Is it waiting for someone to block the demolition again? The guy who didn't dare to break through without blocking himself, this Hayes is overstated. His personal ability is to be the second on the team, Barkley, an idiot, to compare him with me, LeBron James, it's ridiculous.

That's what Kobe Bryant said about Hayes, but that assessment changed immediately.

Hayes didn't wait for Howard to block and shoot, he pulled up on the three-point line and shot!

Radmanovic and Wharton are not far from Hayes, but both of them are distracting Howard, thinking that Hayes will also use pick-and-roll to break through the offense.

Because he didn't expect it, Radmanovic couldn't jump to block at the first time, and by the time he reacted, Hayes had already shot.

The ball hit. Hayes returned a three-pointer. The audience immediately erupted in a tsunami of cheers. Many fans shouted "Shrek" with huge pictures and slogans!

13 to 15.

"In the first few games, Hayes scored less, and a lot of people said it was because the opponent figured him out. I don't think so. Because Maddie played well, the Rockets played Maddy's main point. Although Hayes scored less, he hit a lot of shots and was still efficient. In Maddy's absence, his offensive talent began to show. The individual ability he has shown is definitely a qualified All-Star. Drexler said.

In terms of individual ability, Hayes is called an All-Star, but Kobe Bryant is definitely one of the best superstars in the league. Now the league can match him with the scoring guard, in addition to Maddy, the only one is Devin Wade of the Heat.

Today, Kobe Bryant has exploded completely.

Battier faced Kobe Bryant and felt the pressure mounting. He defended well every time, and although his speed was at a disadvantage, he could still play a role in interference.

But he faced Kobe, a man known as "Peter Pan" and "Black Mamba".

Kobe Bryant's skills are varied, but he also has outstanding adaptability and creativity. Kobe Bryant can shake anyone away, even if it's just a small void, and a few tenths of a second is enough for him to dodge the block, and he can kill someone.

This time, Kobe Bryant took advantage of Kwame Brown's blocking, past Battier, Yao Ming struggled to catch up this time, blocked the foul, Kobe Bryant lost his balance in the air, turned half-back in the air and made an unbelievable pull rod action, and the basketball spun to hit the board into the frame.

After Kobe Bryant hit a free throw, he had already scored 15 points in the first half of the first quarter. 13 to 18.

As soon as Kobe Bryant opened, Jeff Van Gundy asked for a timeout. Kobe Bryant doesn't rely on blocking and picking, and it will be difficult to defend Bhartier alone, as long as Kwame Brown blocks successfully, Yao Ming can't change defenses at all.

"Corunna (Azubuike) up, Juwan (Howard) down, we defend the area. Corunna and Sean (Battier) pack Kobe Bryant and put Luke Wharton. Chuck you go back to the power forward position, hit the interior with Yao Ming, try to hit the low post, and make fouls if you can't score. "Jeff Van Gundy has drawn the plan on the strategy board and explained it to the Rockets.

Hayes looked at the Lakers bench and felt a little shocked.

Kobe Bryant did catch the ball and singled. He didn't pass to his teammates and didn't even need his teammates to block and pick-and-roll, but his high shooting percentage was scary. In this case, can you say that he hit unreasonably? This guy's personal abilities are terrifying.

Hayes understands very well that Kobe's offensive ability is definitely greater than Maddy's now. Maddie is training one-on-one with Battier on the inside, and it won't be so easy. Kobe Bryant's speed is not much faster than Maddy's, but he shoots more resolutely, and every attack exudes a domineering spirit of "who else is me".

"Chuck, don't look over there, your defensive task is not heavy, just attack more, and you will be the core of the interior line." Jeff Van Gundy said.

In that period just now, Hayes also did well, scoring 9 points for the Rockets and biting the score.

"Okay, leave it to me." Hayes said lightly.

In the past few minutes, Kobe's performance was the most fierce solo performance he had ever seen in his life, and he was unknowingly infected by Kobe, and he chose to play singles just now after receiving the ball.

He would love to play against Kobe. It's just that Van Gundy doesn't agree, and Battier can't prevent it, can he do it?
