Chapter 612
The game between the Knicks and the Lakers began on January 22, 2010.
The Knicks' starters are Jiyuan Chen, Serabca, Sessions, Stephen Jackson, Iguodala.
After Sessions returned, Curry was no longer the team's starter, but this is normal, Curry is just a rookie after all, if it weren't for the fact that the Knicks were really unavailable, Curry was allowed to start the team, although Curry's starting performance was quite qualified. This once again proves the correctness of Chen Jiyuan's vision, Curry, as the No. 7 rookie, is now showing good competitiveness, although in the competition for the best rookie, Curry is gradually lagging behind Evans. Evans' performance is so good that the Kings have now treated Evans like the team's James, just quietly waiting for Evans' second year, waiting for Evans to lead the Kings forward like James led the Cavaliers.
While it will soon prove that the expectations of the Kings' fans and management are clearly not possible.
Evans is a clear high-and-low star, but after completing his first year of super-bull performances, it has been a year after year. This has made the Kings' patience and confidence in Evans also go away.
And Curry is getting more and more awesome in that world, although there was a period of injury halfway, Curry at that time had not completed the task of proving himself, so he couldn't even get too big a contract, but soon, Curry conquered everyone with his performance, and the regular season MVP-level performance made people realize how much energy this little shooter has in his body.
Curry still needs time to develop.
The Lakers' starters are Kobe Bryant, Gasol, Bynum, Ron Artest and Derrick Fisher.
Everyone thinks that Fisher is the weakness of the Lakers, but in fact, it is not so obvious, on the offensive end, Fisher dares to shoot, and often can hit a lot of key shots, which many people can't do, in the case of Kobe Bryant being closely defended by the opponent, the old fish Fisher shoots a key shot from time to time, which will still give the opponent a headache.
On the defensive end, it is true that Fisher has become an old fish from a small age as he gets older, and he gradually can't keep up with the pace of the opponent's offensive players on the defensive end, but the incomparably experienced old fish Fisher can always rely on his own experience and find a good defensive way to make up for it. In particular, the Lakers' twin towers on the inside are still in charge, so even if they pass Fisher and break into the interior, a point guard may not be able to successfully score points in front of the twin towers of Gasol and Bynum.
The game is about to start, this game, on the sidelines, there are a lot of stars, after all, Los Angeles is the base camp of Hollywood, but it is obviously more for Kobe.
However, Chen Jiyuan still saw an old friend who was not an old friend.
Taylor Swift actually came to watch this game, and the relationship between Taylor Swift and Chen Jiyuan is not very deep, but it is not so good that they don't know each other. Chen Jiyuan still said hello to Taylor Swift.
At the start of the game, Chen Jiyuan and Bynum jumped the ball. Chen Jiyuan successfully dialed the ball to Sessions.
Sessions dribbled the ball into the front half, unhurried, and now Sessions is becoming more and more of a general.
Many people feel that Sessions has more and more Kidd's shadow on him. Moreover, this shadow is getting thicker and thicker.
Kidd himself expressed his appreciation for Sessions, and said that if he had the opportunity to coach this little brother, he was confident that he would make Sessions more comprehensive. Of course, it's just fun to coach the gods, and unless Kidd comes to the Knicks, otherwise, directing this thing is basically impossible.
On the first ball, Sessions still passed the ball to Chen Jiyuan.
After Chen Jiyuan received the ball on the left side, Bynum immediately went into full alert.
There's no team that doesn't plan how to defend Chen before playing the Knicks, just as no team doesn't plan how to defend Kobe before playing the Lakers.
The Lakers' first blockade line must be Bynum, who was so valued by Buss Jr. at the beginning, and it was not unreasonable, and now he has finally made a name for himself. It was also in vain that Little Bas rejected Garnett and Chen Jiyuan for him.
This season, Bynum, with an average of 30.5 minutes per game, finally averaged 15.0 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.4 blocks per game.
That's pretty good stats, and the guy who paired Bynum with the interior was All-Star power forward Pau Gasol. Pau Gasol is averaging 18.3 points, 11.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game this season.
Such an inside combination can score an average of 15.0 + 18.3 = 33.3 points per game, and such a twin tower is very qualified. It can even be said to be quite excellent.
Even the Knicks, who have always been known as very strong on the inside, last season, the combination of Chen Jiyuan and Love averaged more than 40 points per game last season, which is not much more than the Lakers' combination.
Bynum's biggest problem in defending Chen Jiyuan alone is the emotional problem, Bynum's physical talent is actually really good, otherwise he would not have been selected with the tenth pick in the first round, and he was also valued so much by Buss Jr.
However, Bynum has always had a hard time controlling his emotions, and Bynum has a strong lower body and is no less powerful than his upper body. Therefore, in the face of Bynum's defense, Chen Jiyuan can't use a simple back, arching to the basket and dunking the method.
Chen Jiyuan held the ball in the first ball frame, and the game had just begun, and Bynum still mobilized all the cells in his body to defend Chen Jiyuan. However, if Chen Jiyuan hits a few balls in a row in front of Bynum, Bynum's own psychological defense will gradually collapse, and Bynum will make more and more mistakes on the defensive end at that time.
Although he originally planned to play alone, Chen Jiyuan was also paying attention to the situation on the court at the same time, and suddenly, Chen Jiyuan raised his hand and threw the ball from Bynum's side to the free throw line.
After all, Bynum has been in the league for a long time, so he naturally reacted immediately, Chen Jiyuan passed the ball, and someone should have cut in the middle of the road.
Sure enough, Bynum looked up for a moment and saw Sessions and Fisher, who was chasing after him.
After Sessions passed the ball to Chen Jiyuan, he began to cut inside as soon as possible. After all, no matter how experienced you are, the better way to do this is to cut into this short answer and be brainless, and the tactic of physical fitness is more important.
So, Sessions made a shaky run, and after the opportunity appeared, he cut directly into the middle, as for whether Chen Jiyuan will pass the ball, it is not necessarily, it depends on Chen Jiyuan's meaning.
When Sessions was in contact with the team, such things were not less, and Chen Jiyuan was still very likely to pass the ball, so the attention was also on Chen Jiyuan's side.
Sessions' guess was correct, Chen Jiyuan's ball was perfectly in place, and after Sessions received the ball, he ignored Fisher behind him and jumped directly with a one-handed dunk.
Fisher's height, reach, and bounce ensure that Sessions' ball is absolutely not dangerous.
Pau Gasol is also a little far from the halfway line, and Bynum has allowed Chen Jiyuan to pull out of the three-second zone. That's why this ball, Sessions dared to come to a dunk with confidence.
2:0。
The Lakers attacked, and after Fisher took the ball through the half, he also decisively gave the ball to Kobe's hands, and Kobe Bryant definitely wanted to respond to Chen Jiyuan a little bit.
Bryant holds the ball from beyond the three-point line.
For Kobe, Thibodeau is always practicing his own routine.
The early spacing will not be wrapped, no matter whether Kobe Bryant's feel is good or bad. It is resolute not to wrap the clip. What's more, Iguodala is the one who defends Kobe, don't think Iguodala is the kind of defensive line that you can easily break through. Kobe Bryant wanted to score 50 points under Iguodala's defense, and it was so hard.
Kobe Bryant held the ball and looked for an opportunity, and Iguodala followed Kobe Bryant without a single step.
Bryant suddenly starts, accelerates and goes to the right.
Iguodala's movements were not slow, and he followed Bryant's movements directly, quickly reacting to the left.
However, Bryant suddenly kicked the ground with his right foot, forced a sharp stop, and then took the ball back with a crotch. Straight after the big two-point jumper.
Iguodala's center of gravity couldn't be retracted, and he didn't have time to defend, so he could only stretch out his hand.
Kobe Bryant's hand was still quite good, and this first goal was scored.
2:2。
Knicks attack, this time when Chen Jiyuan attacked with the ball, in the face of Bynum's defense, he did not choose to pass, because Sessions also took care of the offense of the first ball, and it was impossible to be able to cut in so easily.
Chen Jiyuan's ball, probed and probed, Bynum didn't react, and then Chen Jiyuan decisively made a direct jump shot.
This ball is also like Kobe's ball just now, it is a large two-point ball, and Chen Jiyuan's shot proportion here is still not small.
Bynum's defense did not cause effective interference to Chen Jiyuan, and the ball obediently went into the basket.
4:2。
After that, Kobe Bryant hit a turnaround jumper again, and Chen Jiyuan also turned over and made a jumper.
6:4。
Although the score has not yet opened, the fans in Los Angeles are already excited, because it can be seen that the fans are blessed.
Today, Chen Jiyuan and Kobe Bryant feel very hot.
