Chapter 110: Kobe Bryant, whose strength has soared

The Knicks' starting point guard was their sixth man Charlie Ward last season, and he squeezed out the original starter Chris Childs as the starter this season, which is not to say that he is better than Childs, but because Childs's habit of convulsion from time to time made him gradually lose the trust of Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Charlie Ward is a pure point guard, he has a decent pace to launch a fast break, and he has a solid three-point shot that can open up space for the Knicks, and more importantly, although he is three centimeters shorter than Childs, he has a positive defensive attitude that Childs can't do, so it's no surprise that he has earned Van Gundy's trust.

Fisher looked very uncomfortable under Ward's desperate defense, he spent almost all his energy on getting rid of Ward's defense, and couldn't get the focus on attacking again, but it didn't matter, Fisher didn't rely on a single player, he just had to dribble the ball across half court, and then direct his teammates to get in position and pass the ball out.

Because Campbell was injured in the last game, he will miss one game today, so Harris temporarily promoted Holly to the starting lineup.

Hawley hasn't been in the Lakers' starting lineup since last season's playoff game against the Trail Blazers, and today is the first time in a long time.

Although he was a starter for a while, he didn't look like he was out of shape today, how to put it, although he was still doing his job on the field, but ...... He looked a little timid.

He worked hard to do the job that originally belonged to Campbell, interior defense, rebounding, etc., but he just didn't shoot, every time he received the ball, he started to look for teammates at the first time, although he was still very desperate on the court, but the Lakers were not satisfied with his performance.

Patrick Ewing looked in great shape today, and it seems that the trash talk he said to Tony before the game was not unreasonable, and he had five points, three rebounds and a block halfway through the first quarter, including a powerful dunk when Alan Houston missed a shot.

The impact of his dunk directly shook Tony, who was about to grab the board at the same time, back several steps, and for a while, the Lakers' home court fell silent, obviously Ewing's dunk shocked everyone.

The Knicks also made a big splash with Ewing's shot, and then Alan Houston scored a lot of games, and they quickly built a six-point lead.

Harris called a timeout.

Harris was very dissatisfied with Kobe's performance today, Kobe Bryant was too obsessed with individual offense in the opening period, but he didn't feel good today, he hit all three shots, and he wanted to continue to shoot if he couldn't shoot, so that even the defensive end was out of position more and more.

From the fact that Alan Houston was able to hit 3 goals in such a short time and scored 6 points, it is enough to see that Kobe Bryant's defense of Alan Houston is really not very good.

Although Kobe Bryant was a little unhappy when he was accused by Harris in person, he also knew that what Harris said was the truth, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth secretly.

Harris also emphasized passing the ball inside to Toney, and the Lakers looked a little carried away after winning two games in a row, at least for a few minutes, Harris simply couldn't see how the Lakers' tactics around Tony were.

When the timeout was up, the two sides returned to the game.

Alan Houston clearly felt the pressure from Kobe after a timeout, and it took more effort for him to get rid of him.

Kobe Bryant, this guy doesn't need too many words at all, as long as he provokes him a little, he will burst into a stronger state.

Harris looked at Bryant with satisfaction, who was trying his best to defend on the court, and his eyes were full of approval. It is precisely because of this that Harris will tolerate Kobe Bryant's crazy shots at certain times, almost indulgently.

He knew that he couldn't suppress this kid's talent, and all he could do was to let this future alliance devil grow up as soon as possible.

Kobe Bryant started to defend, as soon as Tony got the ball, the appearance of the Lakers team suddenly changed, their efficiency at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends immediately improved, Tony got the ball, he singled Ewing one, and successfully hit, which made him confident, he then tried to hit another one, he tentatively shook Ewing twice and then came to a board jumper, but this time his hand was a little off, and the ball did not hit.

The rebound was also picked up by Ewing.

But soon, Kobe Bryant didn't know when he came out of the spur, he took advantage of Ewing's inattention to cut off the ball in Ewing's hand with one palm, and then grabbed the ball directly to put the ball in the basket.

Ewing was a little incredulous, he stepped forward and pointed to his hand at the referee and kept saying that Kobe had fouled something like that, indeed Kobe Bryant's shot was suspected of being a hitter just now, and Ewing's hand was even red, but what made him helpless was that the angle at which Kobe pulled the ball was just a dead corner, but Ewing's body blocked the referee's view, so that he did not find Kobe's foul action.

The referee spread his hands and explained to Ewing that there was no way to do this kind of thing, and Ewing could only admit it.

Fortunately, now that the Knicks are still in the lead, Ewing saw that the negotiations were fruitless, so he gave up and did not continue to entangle.

The Lakers gradually began to chase points under the leadership of Kobe and Tony, but the Knicks are not vegetarians, although Ewing has just been yin by Kobe, but in general, he can be called a god today, Tony is the first time, in the conversation with Ewing, fell into the disadvantage.

One of his dunks was even knocked out from behind by Ewing.

The dunk was flipped off, and Tony was also helpless.

But the good thing is that Kobe Bryant gradually regained his sense as the game progressed, and he found a balance on both offensive and defensive ends.

His defensive focus on Alan Houston remains tight, and on the offensive end, his touch is gradually recovering.

A summer of hard work has made Kobe Bryant look much stronger now, he is no longer as thin as he was last season, and he has grown in strength and endurance when he can now break down the opponent's defense more easily.

What's even more terrifying is that the weight gain did not take away his speed and flexibility, on the contrary, his speed, flexibility and explosiveness and other physical values are higher, Kobe Bryant can clearly feel that his body is more comfortable with the completion of various technical movements.
