NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 134 Bloodthirsty Mamba
"Kobe, your current state is mediocre, why not..."

Of course, D'Antoni will not limit Kobe's right to fire because of his poor hand feeling. He just wants to stimulate the poisonous snake and let it spew out more venom.

"I'm totally OK, I'll continue to attack."

Kobe really fell for it.

In other words, the paranoid Black Mamba does not allow himself to hand over the ball when he is behind. This is not in line with his inner basketball.

Even if it was a conspiracy, even if he knew there was a trap ahead, the Black Mamba still chose to get in.

……

"Damien, you continue to attack with the ball for a while, and Nash can't prevent your breakthrough. When you get to the inside, you decide whether to pass or shoot."

"Others, be ready to catch the ball. Wang and LaMarcus should cover more. We are playing efficiently now. We must stabilize our mentality and stop the waves. We will kill the point difference. The victory is ours."

For the Trail Blazers, Coach Terry strengthened Lillard's shot rights in the second quarter to target Nash's defensive loophole.

The Lakers Twin Towers are no worse than the Trail Blazers. Don't look at Wang Zelin scoring 3 points in 2 of 4 in the first quarter, but his opponent is Howard, and it consumes a lot of playing like this.

Therefore, in this game, Coach Terry gave Wang Zelin a role as an assistant.

Rely on your own lethality on the offensive end to find opportunities for your teammates, and you don't need to fight hard.

The short intermission is over soon.

The two sides replaced the main lineup.

After Lillard came up, according to the coach's instructions, the average was a strong impact, tearing a hole in the Lakers' twin towers defensive formation.

Whether it is Wang Zelin or Aldridge, after Lillard and Lillard complete the pick-and-roll, their defenders are intimidated by the CIC, and only one person is defending in the penalty area every time.

If facing Pau Gasol, Lillard directly chooses to head-on, he is not afraid of the Spaniard's internal defense at all.

And if it's Howard, Lillard will choose to break through and help other teammates find opportunities to attack.

D'Antoni couldn't sit still after several rounds of consecutive layups under the defense of Pau Gasol. He was hesitating whether to replace Nash.

The problem is that D'Antoni has never been a head coach who looks after others.

From beginning to end, D'Antoni is famous for running and bombing, and he only knows this dish. If Nash, the soul of running and bombing tactics, is replaced, he will be blind for nothing.

……

Almost 5 minutes into the second quarter, the Blazers led the Lakers by 34 points at 25:9.

Another official timeout came, and D'Antoni finally made a change.

"Chris, you go replace Steve."

"Ron, I want to see your defense now."

"Kobe, go ahead and use your scoring instincts."

When Nash is off the court, the Lakers' strongest reliance is Kobe.

"no problem!"

Kobe wiped the sweat off his brow and led his teammates to the field.

"Guys, now we lead the Lakers by 9 points, but this is not enough to guarantee the final victory of the game. The Lakers will definitely launch a fierce counterattack in a while, and we must withstand this wave of attacks..."

"Go on the field and prove to everyone: the Lakers are already the remnants of the old era, and the new era can no longer tolerate them!"

"Go! Go! Go!"

The passion that emanated from Coach Terry infected everyone.

"OK!"

……

After the timeout ended, Wang Zelin and Kobe, who returned to the court with their teammates, looked at each other with murderous looks in their eyes.

"The remnants of the old era, I will personally defeat you!"

Wang Zelin clenched his fists tightly, his heart full of pride.

The two sides re-entered the field, and the Staples fans started chanting "MVP!"

What about falling behind?
So what about 9 points?

We want Kobe!
That man will definitely keep the victory in Staples.

The figure of player No. 24 was played on the big screen, with Kobe's game data next to it.

He hit 6 of 4 and scored 9 points and 2 assists!

The state of the Black Mamba is as good as ever, and it is very likely to score 8+ in the 30th consecutive game.

Back from the timeout, after Kobe received the ball in the frontcourt, he dribbled to 45 degrees to the left of the three-point line and suddenly pulled it up, firing on Batum's head.

34: 28.

"Three-point hits, Kobe will never let us down..."

"Kobe!!! Bryant!!!"

The home DJ shouted excitedly.

Hitting a difficult three-pointer, Kobe held the front collar of his jersey and stretched out three fingers without changing his face.

As if celebrating this three-pointer.

And as if to promise Staples fans something?
"Is Kobe going to go berserk again?"

In the TNT live broadcast room, Kenny Smith's heart was suddenly filled with anticipation.

"It seems... there is this trend!"

Looking at Kobe's back, O'Neill was a little dazed, and nodded his shot.

On the court, after Wang Zelin delivered the throw-in, he whispered to Lillard, "Give me the ball later!"

"Ah."

Looking at Wang Zelin's fiery eyes, Lillard said subconsciously.

The Blazers attacked, and Lillard personally took the knife and passed Chris Duhon suddenly.

D'Antoni's calculations fell through. Although Chris Duhon's defense was better than Nash's, it was also better.

This year is Chris Duhon's ninth year in the NBA. As a role player, he is on the verge of retirement.

Kobe quickly came to help defend, facing the idol's defense, Lillard did not go up, he was still clear in his heart, remembering what Wang Zelin said just now, quickly split the ball.

Wang Zelin received the ball from a high position on the right, and Howard put on a posture, ready to fight.

Aldridge came over to do the pick-and-roll, Wang Zelin quickly picked up speed, and broke through to the right with the ball.

In the paint, the defender becomes Pau Gasol.

When acquaintances meet, Wang Zelin has no intention of showing mercy.

The Spaniard's physical fitness is far inferior to Wang Zelin's. It is too difficult to defend alone, and it is not enough to cause enough deterrence.

After knocking away the defender, Wang Zelin dunked with one hand, and the basket shook violently.

36: 28.

"This ball was played very smartly. The Trail Blazers used the pick-and-roll to form a defensive dislocation with the Lakers inside. In front of Pau Gasol, Xiao Wang had the advantage." Yu Jia quickly explained.

……

Chris Duhon dribbled the ball halfway, Kobe came over to respond, Duhon quickly took the ball and ran to the bottom corner.

Kobe protected the ball from the 45-degree angle on the left to the top of the arc, observing the running positions of the players on both sides.

Suddenly, Kobe accelerated and once again entered the inside line of the Trail Blazers. Aldridge, the innermost man, had no time to dodge, so he could only raise his hands to interfere.

Bryant missed a difficult layup, but the referee's whistle saved the offense.

"beep!"

"Blazers No. 12 blocking foul."

Obviously, this is a superstar whistle.

After Aldridge muttered a few words in front of the referee, he stood obediently on both sides of the free throw line, waiting for Kobe to add a penalty.

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

With two crisp netting sounds, Kobe made two free throws steadily and retreated quickly.

Wang Zelin licked his somewhat parched lips, feeling a surge of vigor in his heart.

After all, do you penetrate the outside line first, or should I hit the inside line!
In the frontcourt, this time Wang Zelin had just received the ball, and Howard and Ci Shiping quickly double-teamed.

If it is a one-on-one, Wang Zelin is confident that he can take the opponent alone, but he will be caught in a double-team and face the arms that keep him waving and annoying small movements. To be on the safe side, Wang Zelin chooses to pass the ball.

The ball was passed to Matthews who was missed, and just as he was about to shoot a three-pointer, Kobe quickly made up.

Although Kobe's physical strength is not as strong as when he was young, it is difficult to take care of both offense and defense.

But as long as Kobe wants to do a good job of defense, he is still a top five defensive expert among perimeter players in the league.

In the face of Kobe's defense, Matthews played [-] points.

Kobe's thin and long breathing came from his ears, like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and the pressure in his heart was getting bigger and bigger.

Matthews gave up his idea of ​​attacking, made a pass to the left, and the ball flew in the direction of Lillard.

Unexpectedly, the ball was copied by Kobe as soon as he took the shot.

After stabilizing the center of gravity, Kobe pushed forward with the ball himself, and Lillard on the other side tried his best to return to the defense, but how could the experienced Kobe let go of such a fast break opportunity and score the ball steadily.

The point difference came to 6 points!
In the next round, Lillard scored suddenly, and Batum didn't choose to shoot after receiving the ball, but wanted to dunk one.

However, he obviously underestimated the ability of Warcraft, which is still at its peak, to protect the frame, "snap", and was intercepted by a big hat.

When Pau Gasol got the basketball and was about to think about what to do...

"give me!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from a distance.

Looking around... Kobe has already run near the middle circle.

Pau Gasol showed a long pass, Kobe received the ball and ran all the way, facing the Blazers' unguarded basket, he took three steps directly, took off, and succeeded in the Tomahawk dunk.

"what!!!!"

After completing the dunk, Kobe didn't restrain his irritability any longer. He roared like a thunder on the ground, and shocked Lillard and Batum, who were chasing all the way behind him, to the spot.

The two stared blankly at the number 24 in front of them!
I can feel the surging fighting spirit coming from him at close range!

At this time, there were still 4 minutes before the end of the first half. Under the leadership of Kobe, the Lakers chased the point difference to only 4 points.

tie?

Overtake!

When the black mamba enters the bloodthirsty state, everything is full of possibilities.

　After the vaccination, the hands were indeed affected a little bit. This chapter uses voice recording, which feels weird.
