Chapter 214: Los Angeles Derby (2)
Cassel didn't try to make too many tackles, but kept interfering with Fisher, so that Fisher would not be interesting and stable.
The Lakers' first offense of the opening game was not in the hands of Kobe, but to Pau Gasol on the inside. Pau Gasol's advantage over Josh Powell is quite obvious, not only in terms of height but also in terms of technical level.
One turned Gasol directly to face Powell, one tentative step, the ball hit hard, one-handed ball directly cut Powell, easily staged a one-handed dunk, and the Staples Center erupted in the first wave of cheers since the start of the game.
"Paul and the Los Angeles Lakers are a perfect match." Bill Wharton was very sympathetic to Gasol's attack.
"Yes, it's crucial for Paul to have a high ball quotient to play in the triangle offense, and his defense and rebounding play is one of the best for the Lakers." Hoffman agreed.
Switching offense and defense, Kassel steadily controlled the ball and advanced to the front court, Kobe Bryant stared at Gu Fei with sharp eyes, Kassel looked at Gu Fei with a sideways pass, and after the basketball bypassed Fisher and hit the ground, it bounced to Gu Fei's waist and abdomen with great precision.
Gu Fei caught the ball steadily, this was the first pass Gu Fei received in this game, the regret of the last game Gu Fei didn't want to play again, even if the team's strength in all aspects was almost obvious weaker than the Lakers, but Gu Fei was not willing to surrender easily.
Adjust the rhythm of your grab, and slightly bend your body to hold the ball in your front torks to prevent Kobe's steal.
"Rookie, you will accept my baptism again today," Kobe Bryant said in a cold tone with one hand against Gu Fei's waist.
Gu Fei didn't speak, he knew that Kobe's trash talk was so powerful, and the adjusted rhythm did not leave any warning for Kobe, and a sharp acceleration instantly took a big step and went directly to the inside line, such a fierce acceleration made Kobe a little surprised, Gu Fei only took one step to completely shake off Kobe Bryant, who was a little undercoping. Kobe Bryant scolded in a low voice and hurriedly turned around to chase after him, but found that Gu Fei's guy was not an ordinary change from the original Gu Fei, and the current speed was much faster than when he first entered the alliance, Kobe secretly admired Gu Fei's progress speed, gritted his teeth and chased after him.
fast
This is everyone's first impression when they see Gu Fei's breakthrough.
Gu Fei tore through the defense line like lightning and cut directly into the inner line.
got rid of Kobe Bryant in one step, and got rid of Luke Wharton who was trying to make up for it in the second step, looking at the basket, Gu Fei didn't hesitate and directly held the ball with both hands. Stride into the basket and shoot after a dodge.
"Smack"
The sound of the block made Gu Fei's face look surprised, he didn't expect that his basket was blocked.
Gu Fei was slightly stunned, because the number of times he was directly blocked by defenders this season could be counted, and the basketball hit Gu Fei's body and popped up the boundary.
Gasol's eyes glared at Gu Fei angrily, he has always carried the reputation of a soft egg, the silent Gasol has always used his actions to prove to the world that he is not a soft egg, but in Memphis he never threw off this embarrassing hat, and in the playoffs he swallowed twelve consecutive defeats in shame. The last derby was his first career playoff victory, and his 23 points, 14 rebounds, six assists and four blocks earned him the title of Player of the Last Season.
Despite this, there are still many people who question him, so Gasol holds his breath to prove himself.
Gasol's firm eyes made Gu Fei feel a little uneasy, and he frowned and slowly ran towards the backfield.
Because the ball smashed on Gu Fei's body and bounced off the border. So the ball changed hands, and the Lakers once again got the offensive ball, and Fisher possessed the ball just after halftime and handed it to Kobe Bryant.
Out of consideration for Gu Fei's offensive end, Mike Dunleavy gave the task of defending Kobe Bryant to Margety. As much as possible, Gu Fei can save his physical strength and cause more damage on the offensive end.
Margeti's defense is a little stronger than Gu Feilai, but this is only compared to Gu Fei, but the shadow of the famous tree, Kobe's terrifying offensive strength still makes him powerless. Gu Fei on the side could see that Margeti still did his best, but Kobe Bryant was Kobe Bryant.
After a crotch down, the whole person shook to the left, and directly accelerated to the right side, Margeti's defensive center of gravity was already a little unstable, but Margeti, who gritted his teeth, actually stabilized his center of gravity in a short period of time and blocked Kobe Bryant again.
Margeti's defense made Kobe slightly stunned, but soon the corners of Kobe's mouth hooked a smile, just like the black mamba highlighting the snake letter, and two skillful crotches in a row suddenly connected a large change of direction, which made Margety, who is good at defense, completely unable to parry.
"Kobe Bryant got past Margeti with ease, and it was a smooth road," Hofman exclaimed.
Indeed, in the face of Noah and Josh Powell on the inside, Bryant was undaunted, jumped directly, and smashed the ball into the basket with a small lever in the air.
At 4:0, Kobe Bryant waved his fist fiercely, looking at Gu Fei without hiding the ruthlessness in his eyes.
"Rookie, you better give up, you can't defeat me" Kobe Bryant passed by Gu Fei's ear and left, looking at Kobe's back, the corners of Gu Fei's mouth rose slightly, remembering the trash words that came out of Kobe's trash words "Bryant, I will defeat you one day"
Cassel dribbled to the front court again, Gu Fei couldn't wait to plug his ears with a cotton ball at the moment, Kobe Bryant in the playoffs was upgraded, and his trash talk was also escalating, and now Gu Fei finally understood how others felt when he spit trash talk on others, Kobe Bryant spared no effort on his defense, with some hidden small actions that made him uncomfortable all the time.
After a season's games, Gu Fei has tasted all kinds of defenses, but in the face of his close big brother and idol, Kobe, who is extremely familiar with him, Gu Fei feels that the defense is more tight, because Kobe is very familiar with some of Gu Fei's basic actions.
"Rookie, you give up, maybe you can come back next year, don't waste your energy now" Kobe Bryant was still spitting trash talk, and his left hand was still secretly harassing Gu Fei.
The first few shots are important for both sides, especially the Clippers, so the Clippers must score, Gu Fei didn't want to dodge, so he decided to choose to challenge Kobe's defense
Leaning on Kobe Bryant's back completely, he completely ignored Kobe's small movements, leaned his back firmly against Kobe's chest, and his ass with a certain tonnage hit Kobe Bryant a little bit back, and after completely occupying the position, Gu Fei raised his right hand high, he wanted the ball, "Sam, ball"
Gu Fei shouted directly at the alien Cassel who was holding the ball.
"It looks like Gu is going to challenge Kobe Bryant directly, and I like this kind of scene," Bill Wharton said cheerfully.
Such a move made Kobe slightly stunned, although Gu Fei had a certain advantage in height (Gu Fei's height had grown taller before, so it was taller than Kobe) and strength, but compared to him, such an advantage was not obvious enough to guarantee victory, so Kobe Bryant was a little surprised in the face of Gu Fei's choice.
Mike Dunleavy on the sidelines looked at Gu Fei thoughtfully, while Phil Jackson frowned slightly.
Cassel heard Gu Fei's voice, glanced at the distribution of the players on the court, and after ensuring the safety of the pass, Cassel chose to hang the ball high, and directly hoisted the ball with his back against Fisher in front of him, and passed the ball to Gu Fei's direction.
Kobe Bryant's left elbow, which was far away from the referee's sight, hit Gu Fei's waist lightly, "Rookie, have you decided to hold the ball and single me?" I think you need to keep your sanity, running and attacking is your best decision and not singles" Kobe's trash talk drilled into Gu Fei's ears again, Gu Fei glanced at Kobe Bryant behind him, but did not fight back, and caught the basketball with some staggering under Kobe's elbow.
After stabilizing the center of gravity of his body, Gu Fei immediately adjusted his rhythm, and made a gentle impact on his back, and the power from behind him told Gu Fei where Kobe's defensive center of gravity was, which he had learned from his long-term research and observation of Kobe, and now he decided to make good use of this result.
