The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 62 [Pass the ball to me! 】

Kobe made 8 of 3 shots in the first quarter, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 12 points. He was the Lakers' most scoring player.The Bobcats staged "Everyone Loves Raymond". Felton made 7 of 6 shots and scored 14 points with free throws, which was even more eye-catching than Kobe.He was fast enough to compete in a sprint race, and Fisher struggled to defend him.The Lakers are 21 points behind 25 to 4.

Ye Feng didn't say a word on the sidelines, carefully observing the game situation.Jackson is very satisfied with Ye Feng's attitude. It is easy to understand and improve if he concentrates on reading the game like this.If he knew that Ye Feng spent most of his time studying how to prevent Kobe from dying, he might faint from anger.

Rather than saying that the Bobcats are the Lakers' nemesis, it is better to say that they are Kobe's nemesis.They would send two good swingmen to take turns defending Kobe, pushing him constantly and cutting him off from the team.The Bobcats also have Okafor on the inside and block shots at any time, which can basically prevent Kobe from shooting outside the three-second zone.The Bobcats rarely double-team Bryant.This means that Bryant can often put up extraordinary numbers, but other Lakers players will not benefit from it.In addition to defense, the Bobcats players will deliberately provoke Kobe and let him start the mad attack mode. As long as Kobe is determined to go it alone to the end, the Bobcats have a great chance to win.

Ye Feng came to the conclusion that if he wants to beat the Lakers, he must use a highly mobile insider as a power forward and do a good job of supplementing defense after the pick-and-roll; at the shooting guard position, there must be a player with strong single-defense ability To limit Kobe from receiving the ball; there must be a center tall enough to block shots inside.

As far as the current situation of the Clippers is concerned, they are all unqualified except for Kaman.Kaman's offensive ability is not very good, he is just a senior blue-collar.Ye Feng himself can act as a flexible power forward, but this is not enough. If he wants the Clippers to become the championship in the future, he must carry out a big cleanup.

In the second quarter, Ye Feng came on the court, and the Lakers came off the bench.

After Wallace left the field, the power forward was replaced by Jemario Davidson, a marginal man who averaged 9 minutes, 3.2 points and 1.6 rebounds per game.Ye Feng became the main point of attack. In 6 minutes, he made 6 of 3 shots and scored 8 points with free throws. Farmar also scored 6 points.Bobcats backup forward Jared Dudley performed well and hit two three-pointers to help the Bobcats cling to the score.After 6 minutes, 36 to 34, the Lakers overtook by two points, and the two sides once again changed to the main force.

After Kobe came on the court, he started his main attack again. He shot a lot today, but his touch was wrong, and his shooting percentage was less than 4%.The Lakers ended the first half 49 to 52.

During the intermission, Ye Feng felt that it was necessary to have a talk with Kobe.After the two sides changed players in the second quarter, the defender he faced was the thin Matt Carroll. In such a good situation, he couldn't receive the pass. Destroying Carol is not difficult.

There is an old saying in China that goes, "be polite first and then fight." First negotiate with the other party according to the usual etiquette, and then use strong measures to solve the problem when it fails.The purpose of Ye Feng talking to Kobe is to make himself play more comfortably and let the team win, not to quarrel with Kobe and affect the unity of the team.

In the locker room, Kobe was sitting next to his locker in a daze.Ye Feng walked over and said: "Kobe, I want to talk to you."

Kobe said lightly: "Speak."

Ye Feng tried his best to keep his tone calm, appearing modest, and said with a smile: "Today, the Bobcats are very strict with your defense. I think you are too tired from playing like this. After the second quarter, the person who faced me after the substitution was Ma T. Carroll, his defense sucks, so I hope you will pass me more in the second half, I will play Carroll, and I will definitely beat the score in one fell swoop. If they switch, play Lamar (Odom) There are advantages, too. What do you think?"

After hearing this, Kobe didn't even raise his eyelids, and said coldly, "What did you say? I can't hear you clearly."

When a reporter said something Kobe didn't like to hear, he liked to use "I can't hear clearly" to perfuse the other party until the other party felt ugly and shut up and left.Ye Feng was a little upset, so he patiently repeated what he said just now.This time he spoke louder on purpose.

Kobe still said "I can't hear you clearly."

Kobe couldn't hear clearly, but his teammates could hear them clearly. Everyone in the room stopped chatting and looked at them.Brian Xiao stood aside, swallowing.Jackson had told him earlier that sooner or later Ye Feng would be dissatisfied with the possession of the ball, but he did not expect this day to come so soon.

Kobe continued to sit where he was, enjoying himself.Seeing his attitude, Ye Feng's heart beat a little faster, and his anger also rose a little.If Bryant thought he could handle Richardson, he could talk it out.But pretending not to hear him, just ignore him.Not to mention teammates, even strangers shouldn't do this, this is the most basic etiquette.

Brian Xiao, who has known Kobe for a long time, doesn't think so. He thinks Kobe's attitude is not because he looks down on Ye Feng.Instead, he feels his status is threatened and wants to assert his supremacy.

The atmosphere in the locker room was a bit tense, Ye Feng held back his temper and smiled slightly. "Kobe, you are the boss of the team, you should act like the boss. I know you heard what I said, and you understand what I mean. You should be very clear that I have an advantage. Now I will communicate with the coach and listen. His opinion. If he thinks I'm right, I hope you hear what he has to say."

Kobe still didn't look up, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ye Feng left the locker room, found Jackson on the sidelines, and expressed his thoughts.Jackson said blankly, "Ye, if you were the leader of the Lakers, do you think you can do better than Kobe?"

Ye Feng replied without thinking: "Of course not. He has participated in more games than I have watched. I can't compare him with more scoring methods. It's just that if some of his methods are not correct, I think someone should point them out. Come on, instead of flattering and saying: "Kobe is so good, he can throw the ball in the face of two or three people double-teaming." Knowing that the opponent has worked hard on the defensive end, he has set up a trap, and he has to go in Jump, isn't that stupid? Am I thinking wrong, a leader should be like him, attacking the opponent's strongest point of defense?"

Jackson smiled slightly and said, "Then why do you think I seldom ask him to do something? Like passing the ball to the inside or facing double-teams, I seldom tell him these things."

"Because you don't want to give up that idea, and being a coach is just for the annual salary of tens of millions?" Jackson's face changed, and Ye Feng hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm just kidding, sorry. I think it's because Kobe is so strong because of him now. This kind of play. If he was told what to do, he wouldn't be able to play to his strengths, right?"

Jackson smiled and said: "You are really smart, but you are not the trump card of this team, so I will not ask Kobe to do anything. If you want the ball, you must let your teammates pass the ball to you willingly."

Jackson said "teammates", not Kobe, Ye Feng was awakened by one word.He immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Thank you coach, I understand."

He quickly returned to the locker room, knocked on the cabinet, and said loudly: "Everyone, did you all hear what I talked to Kobe just now?"

Veteran Fisher stood up from his seat, frowned and said, "Boy, what do you want to do today?"

Ye Feng looked around and said loudly: "I just want to reiterate loudly that Matt Carroll of the Bobcats is a defensive loophole. If he defends me alone, I can definitely score easily. I want to ask everyone, in the second half, Do you pass the ball to me who may score easily and win the game easily? Or pass it to Kobe who is defended by Richardson and Wallace and let him try his best to find the shot? I swear, if the opportunity No, I will pass the ball back to you immediately, I believe you, can you believe me?"

Everyone was stunned.Fisher is a veteran who has experienced the "0K combination" era, and he was the most surprised.O'Neal used to communicate with his teammates like this when he was the boss of the locker room!
