Chapter 183: Keep scoring
Jongwook made another step-back jumper that gave the Hornets another two points to their ground score.
Scarlett, who was next to the court, secretly cheered him on, especially when she heard the applause around her, and the cheers in her heart were even more excited.
Before she knew it, she had been completely touched by Jongwook's performance on the court.
It seems to have become a habit to be happy and happy about his goal, and to be sad about his mistakes or not to score.
Then, the Lakers' veteran hit a three-pointer, and Paul broke through and caused Gasol to foul and complete a two-and-one...... This section of the game, so far, has entered a stalemate.
Zhong Yu himself scored 24 points, Kobe Bryant got 9 points today, the comparison between Zhong Yu and Kobe Bryant, of course, cannot be judged from the number of points, but at least Zhong Yu's score is indeed much higher than Kobe.
In the second half of the first half of the game, Zhong Yu also went off the field first, and he also needed enough physical strength to face the next battle.
Kobe Bryant was on the court, and it could be seen that he was not in very good shape, and he played iron more frequently, but the Lakers relied on interior players to control the score.
By the end of the first half, the Hornets led the second half with a score of 51:46. Five points isn't a big difference, especially in the middle of the game, where two three-pointers can be a big deal.
The Lakers' main lineup is undoubtedly combative, with a strong interior line, coupled with a strong outside line like Kobe, this is not something that any team can easily deal with.
The second half of the game is about to begin.
At halftime, Zhong Yu also followed the crowd and followed everyone to take a look at the legendary most beautiful cheerleaders of the Lakers.
After taking a closer look, I found that these cheerleaders really lived up to their reputation, and I don't know how many people in this stadium bought tickets because of this group.
However, Zhong Yu can only be slightly better than a glimpse of Jinghong, after all, when they came out, the cheerleaders of the Lakers basically completed their tasks and went back.
The second half officially began, and the two sides re-fielded their main lineups, with the Lakers aiming to recover the score as soon as possible, while the Hornets aiming to maintain their score.
By this time, the Lakers are basically at their best, and they plan to fire at all costs.
At the beginning of the game, the Lakers handed the basketball to the inside, Gasol first won a city with a jumper, and then, the ball came back, Zhong Yu received a pass from Paul, but at this time, Kobe Bryant suddenly arrived, in a rather subtle angle, interfering with Zhong Yu's shot.
"Bang!" The basketball bounced off the basket and the rebound was snatched up by the Lakers.
Zhong Yu also appeared to play iron, of course, this ball was mainly interfered with by Kobe, and sure enough, he is not only a super scorer, but also a pretty good defender.
The Lakers began to counterattack, and this time it was Kobe Bryant who held the ball, and he was outside the three-point line, and immediately made a step-back jumper. Jongwook tried his best to shoot, but still couldn't cover it, and after the basketball flew some distance, the rebound rebounded into the basket, and the Lakers went on a 5-0 attack wave at the beginning of the second half.
The Hornets' lead was only one point left, and Paul was not affected too much, still calmly possessing the ball through the half, and then, Zhong Yu helped him block the old fish, and Paul suddenly floated into the interior.
However, Kobe Bryant immediately went to make up for the defense, and Paul passed the basketball back to Zhong Yu. At this time, Zhong Yu and Paul's defenders were already misplaced, and although Zhong Yu was facing Lao Yu for the first time, facing this guy with a thick head, he still didn't hesitate to shoot a jumper.
The old fish could only open his right hand with all his might, trying to interfere with Zhong Yu, but unfortunately it had little effect.
Because Zhong Yu faced the old fish alone at this time, there was really no pressure.
This guy is 15 centimeters shorter than him, and he didn't have much to do with Zhong Yu's jump shot, and the basketball flew directly into the basket, helping Zhong Yu's score in this game rise to 27 points.
Kobe Bryant was a little angry, but he didn't say anything serious about his old partner Fisher, just said: "Derek, you need to pay attention to CP3, don't let them block successfully." ”
Lao Yu nodded solemnly, once Zhong Yu and Paul staggered, he basically couldn't defend Zhong Yu's jump shot. If it's someone else, it's okay, the key is that Zhong Yu's jump shooting rate is too high, so it will be a big problem.
However, Gasol of the Lakers caused a foul on the inside this time, and then hit one of two free throws.
The difference in score became two points, but then the two sides also began a series of iron strikes.
It was five minutes into the second half when Scott called a timeout.
Now the score between the two sides is 63:63 and the two sides are tied. Scott saw Zhong Yu facing Kobe, and he did consume a lot of physical strength.
On the Hornets' live forum, there are also quite a few people commenting on this game.
"So far, Kobe. Bryant has scored a total of 13 points, while Jongwook has scored 27 points. However, it can be seen that Kobe's performance today is mainly affected by the not very good hand, but we must also see Zhong Yu's defense against Kobe Bryant on the court...... As we all know, Jongwook's defense is not too good, but he is on the court, he will never be stingy with his defense, and he will do his best to defend Kobe. His defensive attitude is really positive. This also became an aspect that prevented Kobe Bryant from scoring. ”
"Jongwook's scoring ability is really good, and he got rid of a lot of predictions before the game and scored 27 points on Kobe's head! That's pretty good, and Kobe Bryant is a player who often appears on the league's All-Defensive Team. ”
"Zhong Yu's scoring ability has been proven in a new round on Kobe's head."
At this moment, on the Lakers' live forum, fans are almost frying because of Zhong Yu.
"This Zhong Yu ...... I had only looked at his stats and some of his game highlights, and thought he was just a pure pitcher, and I didn't pay much attention to him. After all, I haven't seen a single tough slam dunk from him...... But I didn't expect him to show such strong fighting power in today's game...... The shooting has the charm of Kobe, and the breakthrough has the soul of Iverson...... Especially that breakthrough, I really don't know how a person with 1.98 meters can be so flexible......"
These are all praised, in fact, Kobe Bryant does have some brainless fans, but there are also many supporters of his surname.
Someone said: "This time, if it weren't for the Hornets being hostile to the Lakers, I might really have to support the Hornets." I now regret how I didn't watch the Hornets before...... Today's match made me realize the real Jongwook. The lightness of cruising through the crowd, and the precision and decisiveness of every shot...... It's really likable. With such a point guard, it's no wonder that Hornets fans dare to call it 'the league's best backcourt combination'. ”
………… In 5 games with the Spurs, Zhong Yu made many Spurs fans know him, and at the same time, many Spurs fans liked him. And now, just in the first game against the Lakers, many Lakers fans have fallen in love with Jongwook, and although it is still an antagonistic relationship, this does not affect the appreciation of him in the fight.
The NBA's official website also refreshed the news of the confrontation between the two teams in the first half.
"The Hornets led the opponent 51-46 in the first half, and the Hornets rookie Zhong Yu scored 24 points in the first half!" This message was clicked in by many people curiously.
Many people originally thought that the Hornets were a little unbelievable to lead the Lakers by five points at the end of the first half, and when they saw Zhong Yu score 24 points on Kobe's head, they felt even more incredible...... This rookie, many people have also heard of his name, but they didn't expect it to be so violent, and he scored 24 points directly on Kobe's head...... And it's only half time.
Could it really be that as some Hornets fans say, it is possible for this Zhong Yu to step on Kobe's head and walk on the altar?
The timeout is over and the game resumes! Before you know it, the number of followers of this game has also increased a lot. More and more people are watching the live broadcast, many people are coming in for the gimmick of the rookie halftime to cut 24 points, and people also want to see how the rookie who directed the Spurs' collapse with 13 points in one minute is tossing and turning under the iron hooves of the Lakers today.
As soon as they came in, they saw Kobe Bryant's three-point shot on Zhong Yu's head, but soon after, Zhong Yu also hit a three-point shot on Kobe's head.
However, this ball is not too enjoyable for them...... After all, this shot is largely due to Paul and Zhong Yu's blocking, Zhong Yu has already bullied the old fish Fisher is much shorter than him, and it can't be completely Zhong Yu's credit alone.
"Here's a blast! Wonderful! "A lot of fans are talking to themselves in the eyes of the world.
At this point, the pause is over! The fans who had just come up and were going to take a look at the hot ball saw Zhong Yu playing. At this moment, Zhong Yu is still facing Kobe.
On the first ball, Paul passed to Jongwook.
Jongwook took the pass and then went around behind Paul and came to the first zone, where Kobe Bryant immediately followed, and Jongwook didn't completely get rid of him.
Then, in front of Kobe, Zhong Yu showed off his crotch dribbling skills in the first area. The basketball kept passing through Zhong Yu's crotch, and his body also made some breakthrough feints, and Kobe Bryant was a little difficult to judge Zhong Yu's purpose for a while.
"That's good!" These fans, who had just come to watch, saw Zhong Yu's continuous crotch dribble, and many people's eyes lit up. This kind of crotch dribbling, there is really a lot of Iverson's style, a 1.98 meter guard, can control the ball and shake to this extent, it is indeed remarkable.
As a result, they paid more attention to Zhong Yu.
Zhong Yu at this time, seeing that the time was almost up, suddenly shook his body, and after the basketball changed direction in front of a body, it instantly swept in front of Kobe, Kobe reflexively stretched out his right hand to steal, Zhong Yu's basketball had already swept past him, and Zhong Yu instantly came to the second area.
Kobe Bryant hurriedly gave up his previous thoughts and chased after Zhong Yu's place, and at this time, Zhong Yu changed hands again violently under his crotch, and the basketball came directly to his right hand, and Zhong Yu's body also moved sideways and retreated to the first area.
As soon as Kobe Bryant chased over, Zhong Yu retreated, so that Kobe's twenty-nine-year-old body really did not react, and could only watch Zhong Yu stand firm in his first area, and then jump shot.
"Huh!"
Blue Ball Hit!
“oh! **! It's beautiful! It's so beautiful! "Of course, the United States is not all fans who only appreciate the collision of muscles, but also some who yearn for absolute technology.
Otherwise, Iverson's influence would not be so great.
Zhong Yu's series of shaking, Kobe Bryant was a little helpless in front of him! is also 198cm tall, Zhong Yu did show his own real skills in front of Kobe. ”
"No wonder he scored so many points on Kobe Bryant's head in the first half!"
Among these people, I don't know how many were gradually conquered by Zhong Yu and became his fans.
As the game continued, the Lakers' Odom suddenly pulled out the perimeter, shot a three-pointer, and actually scored. And the Hornets just passed halftime, Paul broke through into the inside, was caught by several players on the opposing side, and accidentally lost the ball for a while.
The Lakers quickly counterattacked, this time, Kobe Bryant received a pass, then took three steps and made two steps, directly passed the halfcourt, and then rushed into the interior with all his strength, not far from the basket, suddenly exploded, and it was immediately a slam dunk!
"Bang dang!" The basket shook violently, and Zhong Yu witnessed all this not far away, and I have to say that Kobe's slam dunk is really powerful.
The Lakers played several quick counter-attacks in a row.
When the ball returned to the Hornets, Paul broke inside and gave Chandler a good shot, but Chandler pushed back a little and he chose to dunk, which gave Gasol enough time to smash the basketball. My sister-in-law gets hard once in a while, which is also quite effective.
The referee didn't award a foul to the Hornets, and while the Hornets were angry, they couldn't help it. And now the Lakers are going to break fast again, and the most important thing for them is to defend against the Lakers' fast break.
Kobe Bryant received the pass again, but this time Kobe chose to pass the ball to Gasol, Gasol hit a layup, and the Lakers' defensive counterattack was successful again!
So, they went on a 4-0 run. At this point, the ball was back in the hands of the Hornets again. Paul handed the basketball to Jong-wook this time, and Jong-wook faced Kobe Bryant again.
"I don't know how Zhong Yu can behave in this situation?" Those who have just become Jongwook fans are looking forward to it.
Zhong Yu received Paul's pass at this time, and he was still in his third area, and at that moment, he jumped directly!
Kobe Bryant wanted to block him, but Zhong Yu still chose the trick of a step-back jumper this time, and Kobe really couldn't block Zhong Yu in this situation.
So, he could only watch Zhong Yu throw the basketball into the sky, and not long after, the basket in the distance came with a crisp sound of entering the net.
Zhong Yu made a three-pointer and chased the Lakers' attack wave back at once.
