Chapter 512: Death Push-ups
At the intermission, the Knicks' locker room was filled with joy, and everyone was chatting about happy things that had nothing to do with the game. Because in their opinion, since Xiao Shi decided to win tonight, then they didn't have to worry about other things. Their unconditional trust comes from countless experiences in the past.
The opposite thing is that almost everyone in the Lakers locker room who can talk is discussing what to do in the next game.
"Bryant, we should focus on the game itself, we should go for the win." Pau Gasol said it very vaguely.
"I also think that the triangle tactic is the most important tactic to execute right now, and we can't be defeated by the Knicks so easily!" Ron Artest said the same thing.
"Man, we're all old. Now victory and championship are our greatest pursuit! Derek Fisher also said softly, he was embarrassed to explain directly: Kobe, don't compete with Xiao Sao for the so-called first, you can't compete with him.
But in fact, that's what everyone in the locker room meant.
Kobe Bryant kept his lips in silence, and he felt that the atmosphere in the locker room was like a critique meeting, and the object was himself.
While Kobe Bryant was silent, Phil Jackson finally stood up, walked to the center of the locker room, and then calmly told the entire locker room: "Then we strictly implement the triangle strategy, Lamar Odom, you will get playing time, from this point on, we have to break the space barrier from the Knicks' defensive centerline......"
Phil Jackson had already made it a decision, and when he said this, it meant that the matter was so happily decided.
He didn't ask Kobe Bryant for advice.
But Kobe Bryant already feels that his opinion doesn't seem to matter anymore.
Invisibly. He was a little lost. But he still didn't resist.
Soon. The third quarter begins.
When the players on both sides returned to the court, the Knicks also used the main lineup, Milicic, Tyson, Chandler, Jeffries and Raymond Felton partnered to play in a chic manner, which should be the strongest lineup of the Knicks, and the defensive pressure is extremely strong! It's kind of the strongest shield.
When the game began, Xiao took the initiative to walk up to Kobe Bryant, and he told Kobe Bryant very clearly: "You showed you the cooperation with your teammates in the second quarter, and now I will show you the right way to cooperate with your teammates at the shooting guard." β
Xiao Swan said very calmly. But it was very easy to arouse Kobe Bryant's anger, and it was obvious that Kobe Bryant hated Xiao very much in a professor-like tone.
Then, the game began, after the Lakers took the ball across the halfcourt, they did not hand it to Kobe Bryant to attack, the person who initiated the attack was Lamar Odom, Kobe Bryant became a part of the tactics, he started his run, although it was not as lethal as the dashing second quarter run, but he was indeed much more dangerous than when he held the ball. At least now the Lakers' offense is already invading the Knicks' entire defensive system.
Soon, the Lakers scored a goal. Pau Gasol managed to shake off his European fellow Milicic and put the basketball into the basket with a hook hand.
It was a goal that made Milicic look very chagrined, and he felt that he should have been able to defend it, but ...... It turned out that Pau Gasol scored the goal.
Damn it!
Milicic clapped his hands, looking angry and frustrated.
At this time, Xiao Shi had already said to him: "Wait and cooperate with me, I will help you find this field." β
When MiliciΔ heard this, he immediately smiled again, since the boss said that he would help me find the field, it must be a sure thing that I have to run.
Back in the half, Xiao quickly got the ball past Raymond and then directed the players to run.
Kobe Bryant was very focused and focused on Xiao Shan, and the most important thing for him was to prevent Xiao Xiao from breaking through from the left, because almost 65 percent of Xiao Sheng's breakthroughs were opened from the left.
But at this time, Xiao Wan didn't play tricks with him at all, and directly called Milicic out. Milicic quickly called up and made a solid block for Xiao Shive, who took advantage of the pick-and-roll opportunity to sprint directly from the left side, and it was too late for Kobe Bryant to chase after him...... The speed of Xiao is too fast, and his breakthrough is already very powerful if he is not called blocking and dismantling, but now with the blocking and dismantling, isn't it like a tiger with wings.
After Xiao Slack used the block to break through Kobe's defense, Pau Gasol quickly stepped up to try to stop Scare's footsteps, but Spark changed direction and passed a clean ...... But after Xiao Shao passed Paul Gasol half a step, he suddenly slowed down, and although Paul Gasol didn't know what to do, he still followed closely, clinging to Xiao Saul's body and following him, ready to give Xiao a cover at any time.
Pau Gasol attached the Dash, and Kobe Bryant chased all the way behind him, not continuing to follow, he wanted to surround the Dash and not let him have the possibility of passing the ball backwards.
Soon, the 'slow' Xiao was already in the box with the ball, and Andrew Bynum was quickly mobilized by him to help defend...... After all, everyone knows how terrifying Xiao Dash is, and he must be vigilant, otherwise he may be scored.
And when Xiao Sao was about to burst into the reasonable collision zone, he suddenly accelerated sharply, and Gasol hurried to follow.
Gasol had just caught up, and Xiao Shao suddenly made another sharp stop, and before Gasol could understand what was going on, Xiao Xiao suddenly made a shooting move upward...... The speed was too fast, and Gasol, who was in a hurry, didn't bother to judge whether it was a feint, and flew up directly to prepare to give Xiao Sa a sturdy cover.
But the moment he jumped, there was a gap in his crotch, and Xiao Shi directly collected the ball, slammed it to the ground, and the basketball quickly penetrated from his feet...... At the same time, Milicic on the other side arrived with a horse, held the ball very accurately, and then the moment he held the ball was just right.
So, it was easy to bounce high...... Unstoppable slammed the basketball into the hoop!
It's very relieving. It's also very relaxing.
Because at this time, the Lakers' entire defensive attention is on Xiao. Whether it's Pau Gasol jumping up. Andrew Bynum, who still didn't jump.
Kobe Bryant had noticed that Xiao Po might pass to Milicic, after all, this is a classic style of play after the pick-and-roll. So he stood diagonally behind, ready to steal at any moment. But he didn't expect Xiao to pass the ball from under Gasol's crotch, which was very strange and elusive.
But Xiao Dash was completed so easily, and Milicic also completed this violent dunk with a tacit understanding!!
After Milicic successfully dunked, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar, and glared at Pau Gasol fiercely, and showed off his muscles.
Such a move certainly drew boos from the entire Staples Arena.
However. He was smiling at the boos.
He thinks it's so funny, the idol is so right, he can provoke more than 20,000 people to bark like dogs with just a small easy action, it's great!!
While Milicic enjoyed the teasing boos, Xiao Dash had already come to Kobe Bryant's side and said very easily: "See? Shooting guards are much more dangerous than point guards, and can draw full defensive attention and easily deliver deadly daggers to the heart of opponents. β
"Our passing can't just be a pass, it's going to be lethal! Do you understand? β
Xiao is like a teacher's ear and face. This made Kobe Bryant feel as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
Although Xiao Xiao's words are heartfelt, they have created a huge impact than trash talk.
Kobe Bryant can barely stand it.
But the game isn't over yet. He had to endure it.
Back in the half, the Lakers still have a triangle offense, and when Kobe Bryant incarnates as a part of the tactical system, the Lakers' offensive firepower is fierce, and although the Knicks' defense has made great progress compared to before, there are still omissions after all. Soon the Lakers scored and it was Lamar Odom who scored.
And Yi Bian fought again, Xiao Po still controlled the ball and wrote with his teammates, and this time he sent Jeffries to the basket. It was still a very easy pick-and-roll, and then Jeffries had a good idea to reverse the baseline and finally calmly crossed an arc and hung on the basket.
No way, the offensive threat is too strong. He can always easily absorb the Lakers' defensive attention, and when the defensive attention is all on him, and he has the passing skills to point and play, the assist naturally becomes a smooth thing.
Kobe Bryant's passing skills are not bad, but his control of timing is not as good as Xiao's, and the overall view is not as good as Xiao's, so ...... The average is about five or six per game. And as long as Xiao is willing, averaging sixteen or seventeen per game is not a problem.
The game is still going on, the Lakers are attacking in a triangle and the Knicks are attacking in two corners!
It's hard to tell for a while, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for the Lakers.
After all, Xiao Shi hasn't come up with his most powerful weapon yet.
As a scoring guard, Chic's most powerful weapon is naturally scoring!!
Phil Jackson certainly could see that the game was getting worse and worse for the Lakers, but he had no choice but to hold on like this, this was already his last hole card, and the Lakers couldn't come up with a stronger hand. Unless, Kobe Bryant can play against the sky!
The clock ticked and ticked, and soon, the third quarter was over with the Knicks leading by eight points.
Xiao finally reached double digits, scoring 11 points, along with 14 assists, nine rebounds, three steals and two blocks, a little bit closer to a triple-double.
And Kobe Bryant's stats are 34 points, 5 assists and 5 rebounds, and the momentum of a top guard is on paper!
But these are not the most important things, the most important thing is that when there was a pause between the intersections, there was a rush in Stamps, and the Internet went crazy in an instant.
Because Xiao Xiao did push-ups on the sidelines!
Everyone knows what it means to do push-ups while playing games, and that's pretty much a foregone conclusion...... That's Xiao Dash going crazy in the fourth quarter! He's going to enter the all-powerful soaking time!!
Death push-ups!!
The DJ at the Staples Arena shouted out this title in panic, and then the whole scene got out of control, and countless fans in the stadium hugged their heads as they watched the picture of push-ups on the big screen, their expressions were full of panic, as if the end had come!!
Death push-ups have now become recognized as the most terrible thing in the NBA, and when a team encounters a slump that does a death push-up, then the top priority is to raise your hands and surrender, without any luck, because the dash will absolutely tear all your resistance apart and make you a joke within a joke.
It's horrible!!
The nightmarish black enveloped the hearts of Lakers fans, and some fans who were not very good at heart have already urgently exited the game, they seem to have seen the next slaughter, and they can't bear to see the home team being slaughtered in Stamps!
Many fans chose to leave the stadium with their heads in their hands, and everyone's hearts were clouded by panic.
But there's a lot of madness on the Internet!
"Wow! Xiao Wan is finally going to make a big move! He didn't score anything in the first three quarters, he just amused everyone, and now he's going to be serious. Kobe, are you ready? β
"Honestly, I think that the scarcity after doing the death push-ups is a three-headed dog released from hell, and there is no way that anyone can withstand his angry bite! Kobe Bryant though is a black mamba! But alas, you can choose to surrender! β
"I saw the Lakers fans scurrying around, and I could understand that the next picture was going to be very cruel to them. However, I still think they should stay, after all, not everyone has the opportunity to stay and watch Xiao Shi abuse his opponent like a god. β
"All the defensive systems are going to collapse, that's the biggest teaser of death push-ups!"
"Although I knew that Kobe Bryant would definitely not regain the first place tonight, and the Lakers would definitely not win, I didn't expect to see Xiao Shan unleash the big move of death push-ups!!!"
"T-NT made a lot of money!! He doesn't need to make any notices, he only needs to play the picture of Xiao Xiao doing death push-ups back and forth five times to ensure that the next ratings will explode!! β
