NBA restricted area bulldozer

Chapter 565 Remaining at the Peak for 20 Years

4 for 0 at the beginning, 8 for 1 now.

Harris really sweated Kobe, but at this moment, Li Shengli is not in a hurry, because in essence... the game is about scoring, scoring depends on hits, hits depend on more shots, and more shots are returned. to the backboard.

Whoever wins the rebound wins the world!

Although this statement is somewhat one-sided, the importance of rebounding is self-evident.

Leaving aside some mistakes, offensive rebounds in the frontcourt can increase the number of shots taken by one's own team and make up for the lack of hits. Defensive rebounds in the backcourt can reduce the number of shots taken by the opponent, which is equivalent to defensive reinforcement, so both offense and defense and rebounds are vital data.

……

As far as this game alone is concerned, the Jazz is strong and strong, but the Lakers have a strong base compared to the lineup at the beginning of the season, and everyone wants to know how strong this undrafted pick will be in the playoffs...

Unlike the original Garnett, the two have two styles.

What Garnett liberated was Li Shengli's right to shoot after being restricted!

Daben took care of all the dirty work on both ends of the offense and defense, and basically seldom played offense, which Garnett had never done before. reached its peak.

Therefore, Li Shengli was also focused on being targeted.

The play style of partnering with Garnett is to divert conflicts and divert shots, emphasizing on avoiding the edge.

The style of play with Daben is to strengthen confrontation and hard-core cracking, emphasizing a violent duo.

In this way, the interior defense is basically built into an impregnable wall and has a great rebound advantage, but the problem is... defense alone is not the way to win the game. kobe.

……

Crotty advances, Ben pulls to a high screen and picks and rolls for Kobe.

It’s just that the quality of the pick-and-roll is not high. Kobe failed to go around the screen and encountered Stockton’s defense. Stockton’s active legendary point guard who defended for a while is not ambiguous at all. Coupled with home court advantage, the effect of defending Kobe alone Obviously, Kobe can only choose to fall back if he wants to break through, but can't break through.

To be honest, Kobe may be playing a more intense playoffs for the first time, and the phenomenon of slow heat is a bit serious, but he has already shot 8 shots, and the feeling is gradually warming up. This throwback shot in front of Stockton , drew a perfect parabola, and fell steadily into the basket.

"pretty!!"

"Good shot!"

Big Ben and Crotty were overjoyed and yelled twice, while Malone and Stockton showed disgusted expressions, especially Malone showed a helpless expression to Li Shengli and said: "Damn, Li! , What the hell are you guys doing? Is it your first day playing in the NBA? Is this a good shot? Is 9-of-2 a big deal?"

"What's the matter with you, stand at attention and get beaten!" Li Shengli was more disgusted than Malone, and he shouted directly at his teammates: "Defend, stop them, Kobe...continue!"

"Okay, let's go, use defense to break up their formation."

"Kobe, come on!"

"Come on, Hornacek."

"Come here, Marlon!"

……

Kobe leaned back and scored a goal, and the Lakers became excited for no reason, and returned to the Jazz to attack... Utah Shuangsha once again resorted to the signature combo of the pick-and-roll, but this time Malone was caught by Big Ben. Was stuck in the position, but Li Shengli made it to Stockton.

"Li, turn around, you missed it!"

Stockton yelled, he was too aware of Li Shengli's abnormality, so he could only delay the passing time as much as possible, and finally passed the ball to Greg while ensuring that Li Shengli's turning around would not interfere with Greg.

Missing people?

Who is missing?

"Ben!" Li Shengli didn't panic at all, turned and rushed towards Ma Long.

"Fuck you, Greg!" Big Ben let go of Malone, and rushed towards Greg in one stride.

In just an instant, Li Shengli and Daben completed the defense switch. It stands to reason that there was a time gap between them, but in fact Li Shengli knew it well and informed Daben before the game, so Daben’s action was very timely, and Greg hadn’t had time yet. He was punished by Da Bending on the spot when he made the shot.

Standing as a penalty is the first step, and Greg's back beat was directly turned into corporal punishment by Big Ben.

One hit, one head, Greg was pushed out suddenly and slid out, the advantage of the position near the basket that he had seized was gone, so he could only distribute the ball and hand it over to Stockton to reorganize.

The problem is that after reorganizing, the result is still the same.

The Jazz claimed to have turned the pick-and-roll into a tactical system, but Li Shengli took the big book and broke it violently. The two big men were full of deterrence, and this round dragged on for 20 seconds, and Stockton and Malone were impatient. Horry can only be singled out by Bryan who feels good.

The score was scored, but it was relatively reluctant. The problem suddenly broke out in the middle. Jerry Sloan suddenly discovered that the Lakers' inside combination could prevent the Jazz from scoring? !

……

At this time, for the Jazz...the team's offense has problems, but it's not a big problem. At least this game, Bryan is in good shape, replacing the part of the shot that Malone gave up, but gradually the Jazz team found that even the defense is not enough. Something went wrong, and the 2 people who had mocked Kobe just now were too blind to watch.

"Garbage, 4 for 0 in the opening game, I can do it!"

"It's useless, 8 for 1 in half a quarter, this feels like chicken!"

"He scored this goal? Huh, 9 of 2, so-so, leaning back around the screen shooting belt, I go to me... no, but ordinary players can do it."

"10 out of 3? This kid seems to be recovering."

"11 out of 4, what the hell, the inside line was emptied, this kid...can still fly?"

"12 for 5, shit, he started singles against Stockton?"

"13 out of 6, shit, what kind of shit hits, why did it explode all of a sudden?"

"14 out of 7? How could it be like this, 6 in a row?"

"I'm so stupid, 15 of 8, over 50%, and 7 in a row. This is still a three-pointer. Does he still have the ability to make three-pointers?"

……

Why did it suddenly become like this?

In the first half of the first quarter, Kobe's poor hits dragged the Lakers into a disadvantage, but in the second half they even took off, hitting 7 in a row, including a three-pointer, and from hell to heaven... this guy only took less than 6 minutes.

Until the Lakers offense in the last round of the first quarter.

This time Kobe didn't even need a cover. Facing Stockton, he alternately dribbled the ball with his back and retreated. The whistle for the end of the first quarter also sounded at this time, and both sides looked at Kobe solemnly.

……

Jazz side...

Hornacek: "My God, what are we doing, why are we falling behind?"

Karl Malone: ​​"Damn it, the bastard Big Ben and the animal Lee are carved out of the same mold, I'm going to throw up."

Stockton: "Me too, Kobe, can't hold back, I feel...Jordan is here?"

Hornacek: "Jordan?! Don't you think too highly of him?"

Stockton: "That's what Jordan is at the peak, unless he can hit 8 out of 9."

Karl Malone: ​​"Damn it, how could this group of people be so strong, Kobe won't be like this tonight..."

Stockton: "No, impossible, absolutely impossible."

……

The Jazz exited the field cursing, and Li Shengli, Da Ben, and Crotty on the Lakers side also glanced at each other, and the three brothers were also dumbfounded.

"What's going on with Kobe?" Crotty scratched his head.

"I don't know, but... it seems that there is nothing wrong with us." Daben didn't lie, Kobe played more and more smoothly, 8 of 8 did not even produce a single offensive rebound, "Li, what should we do now, Kobe... ...already insane!"

How to do?

Need to ask this horse riding? !

"Crazy, then let him continue to be crazy!" Li Shengli was overjoyed, pulled Da Ben and Crotty and said, "Listen guys, this should be the climax of Kobe's state, but I'm not sure how long he can keep it, so …No matter what Harris will say for a while, focus on shooting in the next quarter, let Kobe continue to fire, hurry up!"

"Will the Jazz double-team him? Single-point play from the outside, isn't this the way the Bulls play?"

"Yeah, concentrating too many shots and being targeted may even affect his stats."

"Don't think so much, you'll know when you fight." Li Shengli said.

Now Kobe felt differently, and walked towards Li Shengli, and Li Shengli hugged Kobe, "Kobe, how long can you keep it?"

"20 years!"

"Why didn't I see that...you can still blow it? I'm asking how long you can keep this state."

"Really, I feel like I can stay in this state for 20 years!"

"You... OK, let's start tonight." Li Shengli touched his head and said: "Kobe, if you keep this state, the Jazz will not let you play singles, so be careful in the next quarter, and I will try you tonight." limit."
