Chapter 135: Injured Again?

The little general Avery Johnson is one meter seven or eight tall, his speed is extremely fast, Kobe Bryant originally wanted to step forward to defend him tightly, but he didn't expect Johnson to change direction and accelerate past Kobe. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Kobe's reaction is not unfast, but his figure is also destined to his speed to definitely not keep up with Johnson.

After Kobe, Johnson penetrated the Lakers' defense like a bolt of lightning, Fox and Jones originally wanted to step forward to make up for the defense, but they hesitated or gave up, after all, this little general is a passing expert who can average nearly ten assists per game in his peak season, and if they step forward to make up for the defense, they will inevitably miss their own people.

Kobe Bryant tried hard to catch up, but he was still a beat slower than Johnson, and by the time Kobe came back, Johnson had already plunged headlong inside.

The tiny little man jumped up against Tony's defense.

Tony didn't have as much thought as the two on the outside, and when he saw someone break through into the Lakers' restricted area, he didn't even think about it, so he stepped forward to make up for it.

I saw Johnson stop in the air for a second, and then under everyone's gaze, he came with a behind-the-back pass.

Tony didn't even see what was going on, and the basketball was already in the hands of David Robinson.

By the time Tony came back to his senses and was ready to come back to defense, it was too late, and David Robinson, who was unguarded under the basket, came directly with a powerful dunk.

Robinson seemed to deliberately add a lot of extra strength, and the whole basket was a little shaky under his pull.

Tony could clearly see that David Robinson was demonstrating to him.

It's just a ball, so do you have to be so excited? Tony couldn't help but shake his head secretly, he was also very puzzled by David Robinson's behavior.

Of course, this was only a small episode, and Robinson paid the price for his arrogance.

Bryant seemed to see the smell of gunpowder between Robinson and Toney, and in the rest of the first quarter, he began to rein in his individual offense, frequently making balls for Toney.

Several other teammates also expressed their understanding of Kobe's approach.

After all, Tony is the pillar of the Lakers, and if he can play, the pressure on other teammates will naturally be much less.

With plenty of possession, Tony is naturally on fire.

David Robinson's defense isn't terrible, on the contrary, he's a regular in the league's best defensive team.

Although last season's reimbursement left him with a bit of a decline in physical fitness, and his defensive ability is not as strong as when he was at his peak, the experience over the years has also made him enough to call him an excellent interior defender.

However, his defensive strength is a little inadequate in front of Tony, who is full of firepower, and the young and strong Tony faces Robinson, who has suffered a major injury and has a significant decline in various body functions, and Tony can't find any reason not to have the upper hand.

Damn, if you were at the peak of Lao Tzu, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to bear this guy? David Robinson cursed in his heart, every time Tony attacked, the huge force that came from him always hurt Robinson's chest.

Fortunately, on the offensive end, he can also find a way to get back on the court, as a scoring maniac who has scored 71 points in a single game (although there is a suspicion of scoring for the scoring title), he has an interior offensive skills that can almost be said to have thrown Tony a few streets.

Although Tony's offensive level has long been slightly away from the level of a rookie, compared with a long-established superstar like Robinson, Tony's various offensive skills seem a lot younger.

However, with one physical talent and the other with experience and technology, the two were able to maintain a state of mutual explosion at the beginning.

It's just that after a long time, Robinson's physical exertion is a little too much.

Robinson, who was so obsessed with singles in the first quarter, was already 32 years old and had suffered a major injury that he still chose to grasp both offensive and defensive ends, resulting in excessive physical consumption in the first quarter, and then completely disrupted the rest of the layout.

Since Popovich took over, he now sees Robinson's protection as very important, Tim Duncan still needs room to grow, and now Robinson is the anchor of the Spurs, and the Spurs can't afford his injury again, so Popovich has made strict controls on Robinson's playing time.

In fact, Robinson was not satisfied with Popovich so frequently in the first quarter, and he thought that Robinson's importance to the team that he chose to go head-to-head with young people, which was undoubtedly very stupid.

It's just that Popovich's status in the team is not high enough to surpass the star of the house, and he is dissatisfied, but he can only let Robinson go.

After all, superstars are often above the manager.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers temporarily trailed by two points at 26:28.

Throughout the first quarter, Tony and Robinson scored 12 and 10 points respectively.

Unexpectedly, in the second quarter, Robinson actually rejected Popovich's proposal to let him rest, he believes that the Lakers here Tony will usually play for a while in the second quarter, and now the team's advantage is not very big, if he breaks rashly, the Lakers are likely to take advantage of this opportunity to play a wave of climax.

Although it sounded good, Popovich naturally knew what Robinson was thinking, but he couldn't say it, so he had to let Robinson go.

Hey, I just hope nothing bad happens like this.

Popovich prayed in his heart.

I really wanted to do something, but before three minutes passed in the second quarter, in a waist break, Robinson's left knee was pushed by Tony, who stepped forward to defend.

Although Robinson still forced the ball into the basket, he immediately fell to the ground with his hands on his knees and in pain.

Seeing this scene, Popovich's heartbeat suddenly missed half a beat, and the worst happened.

The initiator of this scene, Tony, his conscience is not bad, although this Robinson is not very polite to him, but he also has no idea of taking advantage of others, after seeing Robinson fall to the ground, he said two words to Kobe, which means that Kobe Bryant directly called a timeout.

After all, Kobe Bryant, as the team's point guard, can only call a timeout on the court with the ball, and Tony can be regarded as doing his duty to Robinson by doing so.

Moreover, in the first quarter, he and Robinson were really happy to attack the ground, and he didn't bother to take advantage of it at this time.
