Heat (4) :(4) Lakers.

came up to the Lakers to attack, Kobe Bryant continued to ask for the ball at the top of the arc in the front court, facing Lin Fei's defense.

"Lin, I heard that your defense has improved rapidly in the new season, let me test it tonight to see if it's true!"

Kobe Bryant posed in a three-threat posture with his face frame, while Lin Fei concentrated on one step, bent over his knees and stretched out his long arms, always paying attention to any subtle movement of Kobe.

The current Lin Fei's barefoot height is about 194, his height with shoes is 196, and Kobe, who is barefoot with 195 and 198 with shoes, is only two centimeters shorter, and the gap between the two is not obvious.

Kobe's weight is 96 kilograms, and Lin Fei's weight has now increased to 90 kilograms while ensuring the body fat rate, and the improvement in bench press strength is also obvious.

In terms of arm span, Kobe Bryant is 211, Wade is 210, and Lin Fei is 212, which shows that Lin Fei's static talent is not inferior to the NBA's top point guards.

"Corvo, let the horses come!"

Lin Fei's return was confident and calm, and his focused gaze always stayed on the basketball in Kobe's hand.

Kobe Bryant first used a step back to take a shooting pose, and when he saw Lin Fei's left foot take half a step forward, he quickly lowered the center to start the right side.

"Whoosh!"

Although the first step is not as fast as Wade, he is still the top in the league, and Kobe Bryant has reached the peak of his body and technique during this period, and he has gradually become more experienced, and can adjust the breakthrough method and rhythm according to the defender.

Lin Fei's sideways sliding step was swift, and he didn't let Kobe Bryant's first step completely pass, and his long arms quickly interfered with Kobe's dribbling.

Homeopathic with a smooth back dribble and crotch change, Kobe Bryant adjusted the rhythm and then broke through the right side, with a stronger body, Lin Fei, who was defending on the side, directly entered the penalty area.

Facing O'Neal, who was ready to make up for the defense at any time under the basket, Kobe Bryant burst into the penalty area and braked suddenly, moved a step sideways to the outside, opened up enough distance from Lin Fei, and quickly jumped and floated out.

This position is about 17 feet from the basket and at an angle of about 75 degrees, which is a sweet spot that Bryant often shoots.

Lin Fei is well aware that Kobe Bryant is a dribbling player, and in the process of breaking, trying to get rid of finding opportunities to make a shot occupies a large proportion of the offense, which is similar to Maddy Carter, different from Iverson and Wade.

And this is also the most difficult place for Kobe to guard, with a steady breakthrough shot, he may stop at any time.

Even though Lin Fei made the fastest reaction, his overall physical talent was still a lot worse than Kobe's, and this time the defense was very timely, but Kobe Bryant shot the basketball accurately.

"Huh!"

And also.

Bryant made all 3 shots in the opening game, fully demonstrating the importance he attaches to tonight's Christmas game.

The Staples Arena resounded with the cheers of Lakers fans, and Kobe, who faced Lin Fei's two-point shot, also gritted his teeth and provoked Lin Fei domineeringly:

"Lin, you can't stop me!"

Lin Fei was not affected by Kobe's trash talk, and it was normal for him to be unable to prevent Kobe Bryant at his peak, even if he already had a comprehensive defensive attribute of 92.

You know, the league can't find a defender who can completely limit Kobe Bryant from the outside, especially when he's ruthless.

Bruce Bowen, Raga Bell, Jason Kidd and Artest, who have been selected to the All-Defensive Team for many years, can only reduce Kobe's shooting percentage to a certain extent.

With the official promulgation of the NohandCheck rule, the league's rules are also more inclined to encourage offense, and offensive players with the ball in hand will always be more active than defensive players.

The ball was converted, Jason Williams advanced with the ball, Lin Fei was actively running in the front court to find opportunities, and Kobe Bryant was always in hot pursuit.

The picture of last season's Western Conference Finals tie-break is still vivid, even though Kobe Bryant chased Lin Fei with all his strength in that game, but still couldn't stop the Timberwolves from using various covers to let Lin Fei shoot 10 three-pointers.

"Whoosh!"

Udonis Haslem mentioned a cover from the 45-degree angle three-point line on the right side, allowing Lin Fei to accelerate and shake off Kobe's pursuit.

The Black Mamba was also shocked, and now Lin Fei has made significant progress in terms of speed, change of direction and explosiveness compared with last season's Western Finals.

Odom could only switch to Lin Fei's side as soon as possible.

As a physically agile and capable of playing as both a power forward and a small forward, or even a guard, Odom's ability to switch and defend small is outstanding.

But the reason why Odom has not even been selected as an All-Star in his career has a lot to do with his mental state on the court, and he is often prone to lack of concentration and even get distracted.

"Magic" Johnson has said that if Odom can have Kobe's 10% focus on the game, he will definitely become a superstar.

This time, although Odom's change of defense was timely, he did not notice the direction of the basketball pass.

"Bang!"

Jason Williams made a bold pass to the ground from a tricky angle, and the basketball almost bounced out from under Odom's feet.

Lin Fei did not hesitate after receiving the ball, and jumped decisively against Odom and made a lightning shot.

Because of the lack of concentration, Odom was also a little anxious to jump and pounce, and he didn't catch the action, and while the basketball flew over his fingertips, his fingers also pointed at Lin Fei's wrist.

"Huh!"

"Beep!"

The ball whistle blows, 3+1.

Kobe, who bypassed Haslem to catch up, jumped up to block almost at the same time, still missing a miss.

If Lin Fei's shot is 0.1 seconds slower this time, he is likely to be covered by one of Odom and Kobe.

After landing in style, Lin Fei also high-fived Jason Williams who rushed up, and then saluted Odom and Kobe Bryant:

"You can't stop me either!"

The Lakers fans at home also let out an exclamation, and the visual shock of Lin Fei's three-point shot against Odom and Kobe Bryant was absolutely full.

At the same time as Lin Fei stood on the free throw line, the high-definition four-sided screen above his head also quickly replayed the entire process of the ball just now.

Only then did the fans at the scene see clearly that "White Chocolate" Jason Williams turned out to be a non-looking person who hit the ground behind after entering the penalty area, and the difficulty of this goal can be said to be quite large.

The big forward's uplift cover, the ghostly pass of white chocolate, and Lin Fei's lightning shot against the two of them made it 3+1.

This series of coordinated actions is quite complete, which fully reflects the good tactical atmosphere and team quality of the Miami Heat, which is in stark contrast to the Lakers' continuous solo battles after Kobe Bryant's opening.

In front of the commentary table on the sidelines, Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith couldn't help but blow the Heat's offense:

"It seems that Jason has quickly become one with his teammates on the Heat team, and the tacit understanding between him and Lin is too high with this pass just now!"

"A great pass plus a great three-pointer, an assist and a score make each other a perfect combination!"

"Although there is no Dwayne, I believe that the Heat team is significantly higher than the Lakers in terms of overall strength!"

"Huh!"

On the court, Lin Fei also made a penalty and scored 4 points successfully.

Heat (8) :(6) Lakers.

It is worth mentioning that from the beginning of the new season to the present, Lin Fei has hit a total of 102 free throws in 29 games, with an average of about 3.4 free throws per game, and the shooting rate is 100%.

This also made Lin Fei the only player who has never conceded free throws since the start of the regular season in the 04-05 season.

Hitting 102 free throws in a row also set a record for consecutive free throws in the NBA, and this record is still being broken by Lin Fei every night when there is a game.

"This Lin's free throws are really stable, hitting 102 in a row, terrifying!"

"No wonder Lin's three-point shot can be so accurate, just this free throw will directly kill all the players in the entire league in seconds!"

The Lakers attacked, Kobe's anger obviously came up, and he asked for the ball at the top of the arc to single Lin Fei again.

Lin Fei's defense this time was very oppressive, and after Kobe started to break through, he quickly stuck up, fearless of physical confrontation, lowered his center of gravity and squeezed Kobe's dribbling space, and his long arms continued to interfere.

Lin Fei's defensive action is already similar to the death entanglement of the peak Leonard's defensive ball handler, but even the peak Leonard can't completely limit the peak Kobe.

Seeing that the breakthrough was unfavorable, Kobe Bryant did not panic at all, turned his back to resist Lin Fei, and the continuous footstep changes were very skillful.

In the face of Kobe's backward jumper, it was difficult for Lin Fei to complete the block, so he could only jump up as much as possible and block Kobe's vision with his hands.

At the beginning of the 04-05 season, Kobe Bryant in this period has not yet practiced his step-back jumper to the point of perfection, and his technique has not reached the peak.

Although the ball was thrown in front of Lin Fei, the difficulty was very high, and Kobe Bryant failed to grasp the crosshairs.

"Bang dang!"

In the sound of iron, the rebound was easily grabbed by O'Neal against Chris Meme, and Lin Fei completed a successful defense against Kobe.

"Whoosh!"

O'Neal's pass was very fast, and it quickly gave Jason Williams, who was quick to turn over.

At the same time, Lin Fei had already ridden the dust, throwing off Kobe Bryant and going straight to the front.

Kobe Bryant's pursuit defense was naturally very fast, and he was never completely thrown off by Lin Fei.

Jason Williams dribbled to the frontcourt, faced the Lakers point guard who overtook in the corner, and changed direction with a smooth in+ouT during the march, throwing off the opponent and hitting the restricted area.

Seeing that Williams was about to go to the basket, Kobe Bryant was restrained by Lin Fei on the outside, and he didn't dare to rush up to make up for the defense, otherwise with the pass of white chocolate, Lin Fei would inevitably get a perfect three-point shot again.

Under the avoidance of the weight, Kobe Bryant could only watch Jason Williams make a layup.

However, Caron Butler, who rushed up quickly in the middle, was equally explosive, decisively letting go of the opposite Sean Battier, and rushed into the penalty area with a lunge, adjusting his pace and ready to deliver a chase behind Jason Williams.

Jason Williams watched and listened in all directions, so he naturally did not risk a layup, but quickly glanced behind him as he went, and then threw the basketball in his hand high to the tempered rebound above his head.

"Bang!"

The basketball bounced off the tempered rebound and flew over the head of Caron Butler, just in time to be picked up by Sean Battier, who followed up.

Battier stepped up after receiving the ball, jumped directly into the air, and was about to deliver a one-arm dunk.

But Battier didn't hold the ball steady during the flight, and he almost got rid of it.

"Bang dang!"

reluctantly smashed the basketball towards the basket, but directly dunked the ball and flew out.

The basketball that was dunked by Battier bounced directly to the free throw line, and Haslem, who rushed up, got the basketball as soon as possible, turned over and gave it to O'Neal, who followed up.

At this time, O'Neal held the ball at the top of the arc, and Lin Fei also quickly started from the left 0-degree angle, and stabbed straight to the top of the arc, Kobe Bryant was thrown away for the first time, but then chased after him.

"Whoosh!"

With the help of O'Neal covering with the ball at the top of the arc, Lin Fei quickly retreated to the outside line on the right side of the front court, and Kobe Bryant had already seen through the Heat's cooperation this time, and came up to block the passing line between O'Neal and Lin Fei as soon as possible.

Lin Fei didn't stop, continued to move to the right, and instantly came to the 45-degree angle on the right.

At this time, Jason Williams, who rushed from the basket to the high position, received O'Neal's ball, made a smooth transfer, and directly made a wonderful pass with his back after taking the ball, and the ball instantly came to Lin Fei's hand.

This cooperation between the three of them was like a billiard ball hitting the edge of the billiard table at a 90-degree angle and rebounding, bypassing Kobe's interception and quickly giving it to Lin Fei.

By the time Kobe's pupils two meters away swelled, and when he wanted to rush up to defend again, Lin Fei had already bent his bow and arrows and made a decisive move.

"Huh!"

The second.

After landing on the ground, Kobe Bryant looked angry and annoyed, and shook his arm fiercely.

Jason Williams' wall-hitting mid-pass this time completely avoided Kobe's block, and the Heat once again completed a smooth counterattack and fast break.

Stan Van Gundy, head coach standing on the sidelines of the Heat, couldn't help but smile and applaud at this time, he didn't expect Jason Williams to integrate into the team's system so quickly.

It seems that just as the problems summarized by the Heat team in the offseason when they studied Lin Fei's style of play, a player like Lin Fei really needs an excellent point guard to partner with.

And Jason Williams' passing ability is obviously a notch above Wade.

On the court, Lin Fei returned to the defense and "White Chocolate" high-fived again, although the two had only been training together for one day, they seemed to have a natural tacit understanding.

"Jason, do you dare to make your passing a little more showy? I almost didn't even react! ”

In the face of Lin Fei's joke, Jason Williams also laughed:

"Lin, of course I have to meet your requirements!"

"Do you want the two of us to compete and see if you hit more three-pointers or I have more assists in tonight's Christmas game?"

Lin Fei touched his chin and frowned, "If you compare it like this, it seems a little unfair, right?" ”

Jason Williams nodded: "It's indeed a little unfair to you, after all, ......"

Without waiting for Jason Williams to finish speaking, Lin Fei directly interrupted with a smile: "Jason, you seem to have misunderstood what I meant, what I said was unfair to you!" ”

Jason Williams instantly came to his senses: "Lin, don't forget, my single-game assist record is 19!" ”

Lin Fei said confidently: "Then come on, willing to lose the bet!" ”
