After two consecutive losses, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles without any respite, and the players didn't even return home after getting off the plane, so they took the team bus to the Great Western Forum.

Two defeats in a row, which put the whole team under a lot of pressure.

If they lose again today, if they really lose three in a row, then the Lakers' hopes of advancing to the playoffs will be even more slim.

Because three consecutive defeats mean that the Lakers want to win 25 wins, and then they can only lose one more game.

But in basketball games, upsets happen from time to time, and who can guarantee that they will only lose one game in the future?

And you know, winning 25 is just a chance to make the playoffs, not 100% guaranteed.

As it stands, the SuperSonics and Timberwolves, the two teams hovering around eighth in the West, have more than 25 wins likely.

Therefore, with each additional loss, the Lakers' chances of making the playoffs are greatly reduced.

Shay also read a lot of newspapers on the team bus.

The Lakers' two-game losing streak is simply a carnival for the media.

After all, apart from the Los Angeles media, most local media still prefer to see the fall of the Lakers dynasty.

The Lakers won too many championships in the 90s, and Shay soaked too many dream lovers in people's hearts, which naturally made people jealous and became a public enemy of the whole people.

Most people are waiting to see the Lakers lose three in a row.

The King's ranking is not as high as the previous Spurs and Jazz, but because of Kidd, the "No. 1 point guard under Shay", and the Lakers are exhausted, people are still very optimistic that the King can win the game.

Moreover, Kidd's defensive ability is also considered to be strong at the "No. 1 position".

Although Kidd's previous cruel words were a little unintelligent, his strength is undoubted.

Everyone firmly believes that the new generation of super point guards will definitely create trouble for Shay, the old generation of super point guards!

Putting down the newspaper and looking at his teammates, who were so tired that they fell asleep on the bus, Shay clenched his fists.

Today, we must not lose again!

When I arrived at the Great Western Forum, I felt a strong sense of exhaustion.

It's like you're working overtime until 11 p.m. to get home, tired from the day, and you don't have any extra energy.

As a result, at this time, your wife walked out of the bedroom wearing a newly bought apricot nightdress: "Husband is coming to sleep~"

This kind of desperation that is already too tired to do it but still have to work hard is similar to the mood of the Lakers players at this time.

But fortunately, when he warmed up, Shay found that everyone was still more positive.

It's still that example, no matter how tired you are, you have to work hard, it's better than the old king next door.

You can do other things for nothing, but you still have to do this kind of thing yourself.

It's the same with playing basketball, no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to persevere, it's better than winning and being snatched away by others.

At this time, Shay saw several men in black wearing sunglasses appear in the arena, surrounding the first row of seats.

At the scene, everyone's eyes were also attracted by the few people in black.

Finley also leaned over to Shay's side to watch the excitement: "Damn, catch aliens?"

Soon, a fat blonde man led a young blonde girl into the arena and sat in the first row under the escort of a group of men in black.

Afterwards, the men in black withdrew to the sides to keep on guard. They are not catching aliens, they are just bodyguards.

In the Great Western Forum, there are countless celebrities who come to watch the game, and there are all kinds of big names.

But the battle was so big, and Shay was seeing him for the first time.

Then, the blonde girl stood up and waved at Shay.

Shay then found out that it was Ivanka and his father who came!

Yesterday, when Shay was in Salt Lake City, the representative he sent had already signed an endorsement contract with Ivanka.

Ivanka was very excited on the phone at the time, saying that she would definitely thank Shay, and would definitely go to watch Shay's game live and cheer Shay.

Unexpectedly, I really flew over today.

Shay glanced at the old man beside Ivanka again

In front of him, he felt that Old Bass was just an ordinary old man who had just been lifted out of poverty and could barely rely on fruit to fill his stomach.

The whole Lakers team immediately cast a winning glance at Shay, and Big Ben shook his head as he caught up:

"Boss, pay attention to your body, you just finished playing back-to-back, don't work overtime tonight! What happened to the super rich second-generation girlfriend? That doesn't make our boss tired. ”

"Shut up, and when you grow taller, come and talk to me about this kind of adult topic! What are you doing? Got all warmed up? ”

Shay dispersed the crowd, politely greeted Ivanka, and continued to warm up.

At first, fans and on-site commentators were still talking about Shay's relationship with Ivanka.

But when the Kings players played, everyone's attention was instantly on the court!

Jason. Kidd, dyed with yellow hair, walked onto the court confidently, as if he had come to be crowned.

Kidd was happy today, he felt like he had picked up a big bargain.

Shay, who neither O'Neill nor the AI can defeat, has a chance to take it down!

Kidd wasn't the kind of person who couldn't beep, and he certainly knew that Shay was indeed a lion.

In fact, back in Shea's first summer league game, Kidd had seen Shea's strength.

Kidd grew up playing with Peyton, who was a big brother in his mind. However, the guy who played invincible was abused by Shay in the summer league that year.

So, Kidd always knew Shay wasn't something to mess with.

Shay is a male lion without pretense but. Now Shay is nothing more than a tired lion!

There is nothing dangerous about such a male lion!

After a short warm-up, the starters of both sides were in place, and the big battle was about to start.

On the King's side, the five starters were Kidd and Doug. Christie, Collis. Williamson, Kukoc, and Lakers veteran Divac.

Compared to the original history, in addition to replacing the core with Kidd, the Kings also used draft picks to get Kukoc from the Vancouver Grizzlies at the beginning of the season.

Back then, the Grizzlies sent Van Horn to Kukoc and Sabonis, thinking that the two European champions could lead the team to at least touch the playoffs.

But it turns out that in the cruel West, there is no way to achieve good results by relying on the aging roof of the world and Kukochi alone.

The World Roof and Kukoc are undoubtedly excellent players, but one thing to say, neither of them has the ability to lead the team alone.

After trying to win a season that was still only a lottery, the Grizzlies decided to completely mess up.

So he used Kukoc's instant power to trade from the king of the millennium team to a first-round pick.

If I do this, I may be able to get two high draft picks next year.

Who knew that after the king got Kukochi, he changed hands and traded for Kidd!

Grizzly bear crying and fainting in the toilet, can't there be more sincerity between people!? You brought in Kidd, your draft pick is worth a lot of money!

And it's true, with the Kings' current record, the Kings' draft picks are simply worthless.

So, they are equivalent to prostituting a Kukochi for nothing.

And Doug. Christie, who only joined the Kings in the 00-01 season, was an integral part of the peak Kings.

But because of Kidd in this history, the Kings sent Williams, the seventh pick in the first round, to Toronto, and got Christie as a key figure early.

Christie is an all-around defender who is an all-round defender who has been named to the All-Defensive Team four times in his career.

It's not a big star, but he's definitely a great role player.

And it was with the three trades of Kidd, Christie and Kukoc, coupled with Adelman's Princeton system, that the Kings finally made their mark in the West.

This season, the Kings are second in the league in assists per game, behind only the Utah Jazz.

The average points per game is the first in the league!

And it's the only team in this season with a tough defense to average three digits in points per game!

Kidd is averaging just 17.5 points per game, and no player on the Kings team is averaging 20 points per game.

But the Kings are one of the few teams where the starting five Tigers are averaging double-doubles per game, six players per game to be exact, and No. 7 rookie Peja is also averaging nearly double digits per game.

And three of the team's starters are averaging four assists per game, giving full play to Princeton's power.

Of course, the Kings have been excellent defensively this season, especially from the perimeter.

The perimeter defensive chain of Kidd, Christie and Williamson allows the Kings to often play flashy counter-attacks.

Shay looked at the Kings' starters and geared up.

As crazy as Kidd is, there is something about the Kings this season.

However, in order to keep the hope of the playoffs, no matter how strong the opponent is, he has to take them down!

At the beginning of the game, Big Ben relied on his speed to make up for the height disadvantage and fought for the first attack from Divac.

And what Shay is about to face is the league's top outside defensive chain!

Kidd is in charge of the main defense Shay, and the tall, stocky point guard is simply a defensive bug in the No. 1 position.

Why is he so aggressive and crotch-pulling, but still so sought-after?

Just because his passing and defense are so good!

In the future, people may often joke about Kidd's crazy iron strikes, but when it comes to his defense, everyone admits that he is excellent.

From 1999 to 2007, Kidd never missed the All-Defensive Team.

And Kidd at his peak, whether it is defensive prediction, confrontation or agility, is top-notch.

The biggest obstacle to the Pistons' championship in '04 was the seven-game battle with the Nets in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Kidd had three games in that series to keep the soon-to-be FMVP Flounder in single digits.

In the third game, he was 1-of-10 from the field and scored just 2 points.

Since then, there has been an additional ID on the Chinese network called "Bibuzhong".

Not to mention that at the age of 38, Kidd could still carry a certain No. 6 supergiant in the 11 finals.

Shay also found that Kidd at the top of his game was really tough on the defensive end.

Before playing George. Lynch, Shay Jane can get him rolling on the ground with a simple pull-up, making him fall from the three-point line to the baseline.

But in the face of Kidd, who has excellent judgment, Shay's feints seem to suddenly fail.

And because Kidd is accurate and fast in steals, Shay must always be careful and not make mistakes.

In the end, Shay used a pull-up jumper to take Kidd with his height advantage.

With a height of 193 and an arm span of 195, Kidd is considered a pervert among point guards, but he is not a threat in front of Shay.

But Kidd was stunned by his excellent anticipation ability to judge Shay's shooting timing. He jumped up just in time to block Shay's shot. Although he failed to complete the block, he still succeeded in forcing Shay to strike iron with a huge height gap!

After taking the rebound, Kidd immediately began to fight back.

Kidd's best part of finding scoring opportunities in transitions is a Princeton system that places a lot of emphasis on running off the ball rather than sticking to a fixed position.

The system and Kidd were a match made in heaven.

I saw Kukoc follow the fast break, ran to the three-point line and stopped.

As a result, O'Neal Jr. also had to stop on the outside line and could not continue to retreat from the protective frame.

Kidd also turned to look at Kukoc, as if ready to pass the ball to the European magician.

However, in the next second, when Kidd's entire body had already turned to Kukoc, he passed the ball from his side, and a passing sound that didn't look at people fed to Williamson, who cut in!

Kidd's wave of fake passes caught the Lakers' defense off guard, and because Xiao Ao couldn't protect the frame, Big Ben hadn't come back yet, so Williamson easily scored a layup!

That's what Kidd is capable of, that's what the Princeton system is capable of.

Kidd can spot any teammate who has a chance, while Princeton can create plenty of easy scoring opportunities.

The first round of the king's attack showed their characteristics to the fullest!

The Kings' offense looks like ShowTime, but it's actually more of a rhythm between fast break and positional battles.

Playing offense is not about pushing fast, it's about everyone being able to shoot, everyone has a smart inside cut, and thus creating opportunities for each other.

Selflessness, intelligence, the ability to read opposing defenses, teamwork, non-sticking, and the ability to cut and shoot, all of these make up a Kidd version of Princeton.

2-0, the Kings took the lead at the start.

The magician sighed: "It seems that the Lakers have indeed not recovered from the continuous battle, and their bodies are as heavy and slow as lead!" ”

In fact, it's not as heavy as pouring lead, it's that the Kings' offense is so good and fluid that it seems that the Lakers' defense seems to be very slow.

Subsequently, Shay intends to use off-ball offense against Kidd.

However, Billups' shot today was also limited.

Christie, who defends Billups, is 1.98m tall and gives him a great sense of pressure.

Billups' usual size advantage in the No. 1 position is gone.

Christie knew what Billups wanted to do, so he pressed directly and didn't even let Billups easily get out of the ball.

So, when Shay ran to the designated position, he was a step slower than Loops' pass today.

Shay didn't take advantage of that fleeting shot, and as soon as he received the ball, Kidd posted it again.

Kidd's pursuit speed, and George's defense before him. Lynch is not a concept.

Seeing that Shay's opportunity was blocked, Finley immediately waited for an opportunity to cut in, but Williamson, who was tall and long-armed, also bit hard and blocked Finley's receiving route.

The Kings' perimeter defense is so strong that it lives up to its name!

Kidd smiled, the strong team in the west and the strong team in the east are not the same concept! 、

Today, I will bury you here! Don't think you can transfer your performance against the 76ers to today's game!

Seeing that the tactics didn't come out, Shay took two steps back, then accelerated his sprint, slapped the ball to the left with his right hand, and changed direction in front of the individual.

Although Shay's movements were fast, Kidd still predicted Shay's direction and immediately moved sideways to block.

However, Kidd just took a step sideways, but Shay pulled the ball to the right with his right hand, and the whole person's knee was forcibly twisted over, and a non-slowing and redirecting version of Shay's dribble came!

Shay's dribbling is already a well-known action all over the world, and it has long lost its original sense of mystery.

But occasionally using this trick, you can still achieve the effect of passing people in one step!

Shay broke through Kidd and jumped straight up in front of former teammate Divac's defense to make a layup with a 360-degree turn in the air to wipe past Divac.

But when Shay jumped up and turned around, he saw that Kukocz was just blocking the side he was about to turn around.

That is, Shay's space to turn was blocked, and he could only turn 180° at most, turning his back to the basket.

Divac and Kukoc are limited by their physical condition, and their defensive ability is relatively average.

But they are undoubtedly masters of reading the game, so they can often be in the most correct defensive position, and make up for their physical shortcomings with ball intelligence.

At this point, Shay's body had already begun to spin and could no longer change its movements.

So, Shay simply threw the ball behind the back with his back to the basket with a hook-like motion.

Divac immediately got stuck in position, and Kidd, the rebounding maniac among the guards, also rushed inside to grab the rebound.

Everyone felt that Shay's shot was a reluctant shot in desperation, and everyone felt that Shay was stopped by the King's excellent defense again.

But this unconventional layup that turned 180° in the air and turned his back to the basket fell directly into the net!

At the scene, Lakers fans cheered.

Kidd was completely stunned. It feels like Shay is casually hooked in a desperate situation, and this goal actually goes in!?

How else to say that Shay is a god? Shay's ability to attack the rim is the foundation of his foothold in the NBA.

In that period when he was completely incapable of shooting, Shay was able to become one of the league's most dangerous scorers just by attacking the rim.

Therefore, any unbelievable frame attack action is not outrageous on Shay!

Shay managed to score, scoring without the Kings defending making any mistakes.

After the goal, Shay looked at Kidd with a stunned look on his face and patted Kidd on the chest:

"Remember, a 180° turn is called a new side, and a 360° turn is a turn back. If you still can't get it, don't worry, I'll show you a 360° turnaround layup later!"

Shay used the same meme that Kidd said the wrong number before, and began to attack Kidd's nerves!

2-2, Shay didn't give the Kings much of a lead from the start, but immediately bit the score.

Worried Lakers fans also got excited.

yes, no matter how difficult the situation is.

At least, they still have Shay!

After a round, the Kings relied on the Princeton system, and Divac assisted Christie to shoot a mid-range.

Kidd first fed the ball to Kukoc, who in turn hoisted Divac and immediately screened Christie off the ball.

Divac turned his back to the basket and then hit the ball to Christie, who assisted Christie to shoot the ball safely.

The Kings' offense deserves to be the best in the league this season, and it is indeed pleasing to the eye.

Kidd's ability to attack independently is not strong, and it is difficult to destroy the opponent's defense after landing in the position, which is also perfectly covered by this system.

He just needs to be a conductor, deal the first card, and the whole team will run in order.

But as soon as the king was ahead, next to Ivanka, her father said:

"The Kings won't be able to hold on for long."

Ivanka didn't care much, after all, her father loved to blow Liu beep.

I don't know basketball, so I have to act like an expert.

This time off, Shay didn't pass the ball to Billups again.

Billups also understood in seconds, Shay stopped playing without the ball and didn't shoot anymore.

He's going to go crazy and hit the Kings' weak inside!

And against people like Kidd, Shay needs plenty of room to shake and a big stage.

So, both Billups and Finley understood to help Shay open up the space for a breakthrough.

One of the things that makes Billups better than most traditional point guards is that he's actually a two-way guard. He can do the work of running, catching and shooting like a classical quarterback, and he can do it well.

So he can play even without the ball in his hands.

Although the joint defense is now allowed, Billups and Finley both have scoring threats, so Christie and Williamson do not dare to let them go directly.

The outside line has temporarily formed a 1V1 situation of Shay and Kidd!

Shay slowly moved to the right side of the court, then alternated his left and right hands to start dribbling.

The "thump" of the basketball hitting the floor is like a prelude to death.

Kidd is on the lookout, and he's extremely confident in his individual defense.

That moment was just an accident, and in the future, he would definitely not let Shay break through himself easily!

Shay took a step to the right, his hand ready to go down to the right.

As a result, in the next second, Shay pulled the ball behind his back and changed direction towards the left side.

But Kidd's reaction was very quick, he blocked it in time, and waited for an opportunity to make a tackle.

The moment when the opponent changes direction and changes hands, most of the time it is the easiest time to steal!

But it's clear that Shay doesn't fall into the "majority" category.

Seeing Kidd's move, Shay immediately changed direction in front of the right body. Shay's movements were very fast, and by the time Kidd's steal arrived, the ball was gone!

Kidd was sweating profusely, he had never seen someone as tall as Shay and so good with the ball!

Previously, because Kidd's Mavericks had always been an underdog, Shay had never singled Kidd so seriously.

But today, Kidd finally fully experienced Shay's strength!

But!

Kidd wasn't a vegetarian either, and he moved quickly for the second time in a row, still blocking Shay's path and preventing it from leaking.

But as soon as Kidd moved sideways into place, Shay pulled the ball to the left-hand side with a speed that barely stopped. In a very short period of time and with someone on guard, Shay lightly completed three rapid successive changes of direction! Kidd was dumbfounded!

This time Kidd didn't react again, he couldn't believe that he had already guarded against it to such an extent, and he still let Shay pass by him!

That guy is a monster!

Kidd, who is known as the strongest defensive No. 1 position in this era, was cleaned up by Shay!

Shay slashed diagonally inside and jumped to the basket.

But halfway through the air, Divac stretched out his arm and blocked the basketball.

So, Shay retracted the basketball in the air and twisted his waist and abdomen with the terrifying core power to spin himself in the air! After a 360° turn in the air, Shay dodged the defense and re-lifted the basketball to get the ball up!

Most 360° turns to make a layup are actually exerted in the waist and abdomen before the jump, so that the body can rotate after jumping into the air.

But Shay, the pure only began to rotate in the air, so the visual impact is stronger!

Kidd was completely stunned, and was shaken by Shay, Shay just said that he wanted to let him see what a 360° layup is, and the result. He really does what he says he wants!

After the basketball entered the net, Ivanka's father also stood up excitedly and cheered:

"Hahahaha, what am I talking about? With Shay here, the Kings can't be ahead for long!

No one knows basketball better than me!

Shay is a talent.

He will be able to make Lakers greatest again! ”

Ivanka:

But it's true, even people like Ivanka's dad who don't know much about basketball know that with Shay, the Kings won't be ahead for long!

Shay's two bizarre breakthrough goals in a row have taken a serious toll on Kidd's self-confidence.

He finally had the privilege of seeing Shay at full power in six seasons of his career.

But at this time, all that was left for him was despair!

Kidd thinks he's very strong defensively, but Shay himself is as easy as going home and getting in! And if you say you can score a goal in any position, you will definitely be able to score a goal in any position!

Arrogant, but really arrogant!

The Nets' terrifying outside defensive chain was forcibly broken by Shay with an even more terrifying breakthrough ability!

Shay glanced at Kidd and pointed to the champion flags above the Great Western Forum:

"What is the god of point guards? Learn a little bit today! ”

In the game that followed, Kidd was directly shut up.

While Shay didn't succeed in every breakaway, overall, Kidd couldn't stop Shay's scoring in a heads-up situation.

There was no way, the Kings could only start to flank the attack.

But don't forget, Shay's passing ability is no less than Kidd's.

Don't forget that he was the three-time assist champion before he won the scoring in a row! He had already interrupted Stockton's monopoly on the assist king before he interrupted Jordan's monopoly on the scoring champion!

So as soon as the Nets caught it, Shay assisted Billups and Finley to start scoring efficiently.

Billups and Finley did fight today, and they both knew that the Lakers couldn't afford to lose again, so they burst out with great power in the third game of the back-to-back.

Watching Shay assist opponents with exquisite passes again and again, Kidd felt that what he could do on the offensive end, Shay could do.

And what he can't do, Shay can still do!

It's a dimensionality reduction blow!

At the end of the half, Shay scored 17 points and 7 assists, almost having a double-double in the half.

Kidd also dished out seven assists and grabbed five rebounds, but . .

His individual score in the first half was an embarrassing 0 points!

Under Shay's defense, Kidd didn't score a point in the first half!

The Magic exclaimed, "The last time Shay put on a defensive performance like this was against Drexler. Is the heir of Ah Slip about to appear? ”

Ah Slip: ???

You wouldn't be able to speak without me, would you!?

However, the Lakers only led the Kings by four points at halftime when they played well on the offensive end.

The two sides are still evenly matched.

Although the Kings' defense was smashed to pieces by Shay, their league-leading offense is still supporting the team!

Kidd 0 at halftime? It doesn't matter, the Princeton system solves this problem.

Christie had 12 points in the half, Williamson 11 in the half, Kukoc 10, Divac eight and Peja seven.

Princeton's main focus is a multi-point flower, rain and dew evenly, and does not rely on personal firepower.

From Kidd's instigation to Divac, Kukoc, and Christie's guidance, the Kings played extremely high offensive efficiency throughout the half.

The star of the house has 0 points at halftime? It doesn't matter to the king at all!

Kidd's main product itself is a "no-point leader".

I can't understand scoring, but I can make my teammates understand!

So, while Shay's singles have blown up Kidd, the Lakers are temporarily ahead.

But the game is still scorching, and the possibility of a three-game losing streak is still there!

Adelman yelled as he walked into the tunnel with his players:

"We played well in the first half, and if we keep up in the second half, we will win the game!"

Adelman also thinks that the team can still win!

Kidd was also comforting himself: Although I didn't score, I can lead the team! Hold on, you can win!

It can be seen that the Kings are very optimistic and feel that there is not much difference with the Lakers.

This is not the first time they have relied on the league's No. 1 offense to destroy their opponents.

But what they don't know is that Carlisle and the Penguins have found a way to contain Princeton through half-game observations!

The second half started quickly, with the Kings attacking first.

After Kidd passed the half, it was Shay who led the defense, as always.

But after a few steps to the left side of the court, he found that Shay hadn't followed, and it was Billups who defended himself.

Shay stood in the area on the right, blocking Kidd's pass at any moment.

Kidd, who has a very high ball quotient, immediately reacted, and the Lakers were.

Defended a 2-3 joint defense!

Because of the defense, Kidd can't pass the ball to Christie, who is running to the right.

Shay's defense was too large and he was in a position where he could block passes, leaving Kidd uneven confident that he could pass the ball.

It's the same for other positions, no matter how much the Kings players run, there are defenders in the area, and there aren't so many open spots.

But Kidd was not in a hurry, and there were many teams that used joint defense to deal with Princeton, but none of them ended well!

Kidd passed the ball to Kukoc in the middle distance on the right, and O'Neal Jr. immediately posted it.

But soon, Christie also ran to the right and stood in the bottom corner.

Because it is not a man-to-man defense, Xiao Ao is now equivalent to defending two in this area.

Sure enough, Kukoc passed the ball to Christie. However, as soon as Christie received the basketball and raised it to shoot, Xiao Ao stretched out his long arm to interfere!

Christie looked at the menacing little O'Neal and hesitated for a moment without making a move. This hesitation made him miss the opportunity!

Indeed, the biggest problem with using a joint defense against Princeton is that there is not enough mobility on the inside, and most defenders will struggle to defend one-on-two in the area.

But the Lakers' two interior lines, Xiao Ao and Gao Daben, are just mobile interior lines, and one defense and two are the norm for them!

Of course, no matter how strong the mobility is, there will always be some shooting space when defending one.

But the Kings team because the individual independent offensive ability of the whole team is average, so even if the interference is not so strict, as long as there is, it is enough to contain their offense.

No, if the ball just now was going to be replaced by Kobe Bryant or AI, it would definitely be shot directly. A little distraction, it's nothing to them.

But Christie hesitated unconfidently in the face of Xiao Ao who pounced!

Princeton's ultimate goal is to create 1v0 opportunities, while the Lakers' defensive goal is to make the Kings 1v1 no matter what.

The Lakers' defense in this area directly hit the king's pain point!

In desperation, Christie passed the ball back to Kidd to reorganize, and he borrowed Kukoc's cover to continue to run for opportunities.

But the Lakers' extremely mobile district defense gives the Kings the feeling that is. The whole half was stuffed with defenders, there weren't that many good chances at all!

Kidd is also helpless with the ball, and positional offense is actually Kidd's shortcoming.

Kidd's attacking threat is mainly to push quickly from the back and then find gaps with superb passing.

Why was Kidd able to lead the team to the Finals during the Nets? Because the Nets' defense was the best in the league during that period!

And that means the Nets have plenty of opportunities to get on the back burner, which brings Kidd's talent to good use.

But in a situation like the current situation where no one can get a chance, Kidd is very uncomfortable.

Because he doesn't have the ability to disrupt the defense with a breakthrough and create opportunities for his teammates.

Shay, who was in the early part of his career, also didn't shoot and had a single offensive means.

But the biggest difference between him and Kidd is that Shay can use breakthroughs to force attacks, and can use breakthroughs to force opportunities for teammates.

And Kidd can't do that!

Kidd tries to break through Billups to attract the bag, but finds that he can't break through at all!

Defending Kidd in positional battles is enough for Billups' level!

Of course, it's also thanks to the fact that the Lakers now have an open Billups.

If this is still the old Curry as the starter, Kidd can really break through.

For a while, the King's gorgeous offense completely stopped!

Shay smiled, so how strong is Kidd and sister, Jason. Kidd honestly no. Some fans talk about Kidd's triple-double record point guard benchmark, yes, Jason. It's true that Kidd has a certain amount of energy in assists and defense, but how do you talk about this thing, to put it bluntly, when it comes to high-level dripping games, it's the players who fight for offensive firepower!

You're kidding there to draw and direct traffic, and the commander comes and goes, and in the end, I find that the inner line is still congested! It's like Kidd!

Looking at Kukoc, who cut to the outside, Kidd dared to take this opportunity.

He wondered if Shay should not be able to react so quickly and steal the pass directly.

But Shay's ability, you must not think about it.

That's not something you can figure out.

The moment Kidd sent the ball to Kukoc, he saw Shay move with almost zero delay!

Shay's tackling ability, whether it's a steal with the ball or a steal pass, has been perfected.

Many people only remember Shay as having 3 scoring titles and 3 assists titles.

But don't forget, Shay still has the most steals, and he has already taken 4!

I saw Shay turn around in time, stretched out his hand, and took advantage of the length of his arm, and his fingertips touched Kidd's fast ball!

No matter how good the pass is, there are limitations!

Fortunately, although the ball was destroyed, it was still picked up by Kukoc in time.

However, the offensive opportunity was gone, and the moment Kukoc picked up the basketball, he was close to Shay.

Kukoc was also afraid of being cut off by Shay, so he immediately passed the ball back to Kidd.

This time, Kidd ran to the top of the arc outside the three-point line to catch the ball, and Billups couldn't chase it, giving Kidd a bit of space to shoot.

Kidd is shooting 36.6 percent from three-point range this season, and shooting open threes after receiving the ball is his specialty.

Therefore, Kidd immediately shot after receiving the ball, hoping to break the embarrassment of the offense being unable to open up for a long time.

However, at the moment when Kidd jumped up and was about to make a move, Shay relied on his strong mobility and defensive range to make up for Kidd!

Kidd panicked at the time, his three-point shooting can only ensure that there is a shooting percentage in the open space, and if there is interference, it may not be where to shoot.

So Kidd subconsciously retracted the basketball when his feet were already jumping, trying to avoid the defense.

So, people saw Kidd jump up and didn't shoot or pass, and then landed again, and was blown by the referee. Kidd, a point guard with a high ball quotient, was forced by the Lakers' defense to make such a low-level mistake!

The magicians all laughed: "Ouch my god Jason. Kidd, what kind of cloud technology are you, what kind of cloud technology are you? With your feet off the ground, are you playing basketball!? ”

Kidd also blushed and unwillingly smashed the ball to the ground.

Of course, anyone who knows the ball can see that this goal is not that Kidd is too naïve, but that Kidd has been forced to be anxious!

I've been cornered!

In fact, Shay's interference just now was not particularly timely, and if he wanted to change someone else, he would definitely vote.

But again, the Kings from Kidd to Divac, one counts as one, and none of them has particularly strong individual singles ability. So, just make the Kings players 1v1 as much as possible, even if that interference is not particularly tight, it is enough!

Shay's ability to defend in the district is simply terrifyingly strong. In his own area, he can easily force mistakes on the first and second.

Stern, who was watching the game, swallowed.

Why did he join the joint defense in the first place?

In order to contain Shay, in order to stop the Lakers from winning four consecutive championships.

But today he found out

Shay's defensive ability seems to be more perverted under the rules that allow joint defense!

Allowing joint defense has instead untied the last shackles on Shay!

I thought it was the rule to contain Shay, but I accidentally strengthened Shay!

Stern is completely desperate to contain Shay? At least that's not something he can do.

The first round when the Lakers changed their defensive strategy made the King's flashy offense so ugly.

Now that the defensive problem is solved, then next.

Shay moved his body, and his favorite part of the slaughter had arrived!

Three defeats in a row? Can't beat the strong team in the west? Can't make the playoffs?

Today, Shay is going to break all these doubts!

Watching Shay cross the halfcourt line with a basketball and watch the others open up space for Shay to play again, Kidd swallowed.

It's over, today is really going to be abused by Shay's 360° all-round encirclement!

Today's direct 10,000-word update is presented, and it is another day of 10,000-word update, and the conscience of the old man kneels down and begs for a monthly pass! Thank you!
