I'm an NBA goalie

Chapter 52

On November 11, US time, the game between the Mavericks and the Lakers started at the American Airlines Center.

The Lakers currently rank first in the Western Conference, with 12 wins and 1 loss since the beginning of the season.Except for losing a game against the Pistons on November 11th, they have won five consecutive victories so far.

The Mavericks also won five consecutive victories, and this game has also attracted much attention. Today's game between the two teams will be broadcast live across the United States.

The starting lineup of the Mavericks in this game, in addition to the outstanding performance in these games, Antoine White was put on the starting position again by the head coach Carlisle.No other changes.

The Lakers lineup is the same as the lineup that the two teams played against each other, and there is no change.

Game start.

In the first quarter, the two armies were evenly matched. The stars of the two teams, Nowitzki and Kobe Bryant, both performed efficiently. Nowitzki scored 8 points and 5 rebounds, and Kobe scored 10 points and 2 assists.

At the end of the first quarter, the score between the two sides was 30:27, and the Mavericks trailed by three points.

And this section of the game also exposed a serious problem for the Mavericks. The main center Eric Dampier only got 1 rebound and two fouls in the first section of the game.The Mavs are under serious threat inside.

In the second quarter, the two sides replaced the substitutes. Terry led the substitutes not only to stabilize the score, but also overtook the score under his explosion. At the end of the second quarter, the score of the two sides was 57:51, and the Mavericks led by 6 points.

In the third quarter, the two sides replaced the main force.The Mavericks had to call a timeout in the first 2 minutes, and Dampier, who re-entered the game, was continuously abused by Bynum and Pau Gasol in the interior, which forced Nowitzki to focus more on defense and offense. Efficiency is significantly reduced.

Mavericks coach Carlisle was very disappointed with Dampier, so he had to replace Wang Dachun, who had not played in this game.

The game continues, the Lakers attack.

Fisher came to the front court with the ball, Kobe cut into the inside through the screen of Pau Gasol, Bynum stuck Wang Dachun, Kobe dunked and hit two points.

The score was 57:53.

Kidd passes to Nowitzki!It was intercepted by Gasol, but fortunately Kidd caught up with the basketball in time and picked it up.Reorganize the offense and re-pass the ball to Nowitzki through Wang Dachun's high screen.Nowitzki made a two-pointer with a back hook.

The score was 59:53.

Kobe took the ball to a high position, and Bynum asked for the ball from Kobe. Kobe saw that there was no better opportunity to attack, so he lobbed the ball to Bynum inside.Bynum thought he had caught Wang Dachun behind him, and stretched out his hand to catch the ball, but he still ignored Wang Dachun's wingspan. Before his hand touched the basketball, he was suddenly stretched out and intercepted by Wang Dachun's big hand, which caused Kobe's mistake.

Wang Dachun passed the ball to Kidd.Kidd quickly passed the ball to White, who had run to the bottom line, and White made a three-pointer.

The score was 62:53.

The Lakers attack.Fisher took the ball and Kidd stepped forward to steal.Fisher passes the basketball to Kobe Bryant on a [-]-pointer.

Kobe saw Wang Dachun being picked and rolled by Gasol, and Bynum had already entered the inside line, and quickly passed the ball to Bynum who was approaching the basket. , very clean one cap.

The basketball was picked up by Nowitzki and quickly passed to White who was running wildly. White came to the 45-degree three-point line and took off to shoot. Fisher, who was rushed to stop, interfered and missed.

The rebound was picked up by Radmanovich, and Radmanovich handed the basketball back to Fisher. Fisher came to the frontcourt, broke into the inside lane and made a false pass, and the basketball was passed to Kobe who was following behind. , Kobe hit the board and scored two points.

The score was 62:55.

Kobe's goal also started his own singles mode. He doesn't have much hope for the inside now.

Since Wang Dachun came on the field, after a few rounds between the two teams, he could see that Wang Dachun had made significant progress during this period, and defending Bynum was much easier than before.

After Wang Dachun came on the field, Bynum didn't score a single point in the paint, and even let himself make a mistake.

White actually felt aggrieved at this time. In the first few games, he finally rediscovered the feeling of a professional NBA player who can score goals on the court.

Today he returned to the starting position again, but he did not expect that he would face Kobe Bryant when he returned to the starting position. His first starting matchup was McGrady. After being beaten by McGrady, he entered his own Feeling cold period.

When I returned to the starting lineup, I met Kobe. He was already beaten in the first quarter.I thought the coach should make adjustments when he saw that he was so weak, but he didn't expect to have to defend Kobe when he came back in the third quarter.

He has a feeling that after the start of this game, he should be kicked off again. He has already deeply suspected that he has violated the starting position. Every time he starts, he encounters the most powerful shooting guard in the league.

It's not out of White's fault, Kobe played him like a play, if it wasn't for the insider Wang Dachun who helped him defend and interfered with some of Kobe's goals breaking through the basket, maybe Kobe would break through White's funnel into a trumpet.

Kobe's explosion in the second half of the third quarter of the game, coupled with White's weak defense, made the score 73:73 at the end of the third quarter.Kobe scored [-] points in a single quarter.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Mavericks replaced the substitutes at the beginning of the game, and the center position was still Wang Dachun.

The head coach Carlisle can clearly feel that Wang Dachun is more and more useful than before. After Wang Dachun came on the court, he has obviously surpassed Dampier in protecting the interior. In the entire third quarter, Bynum only got two defenses in the interior. Rebounds, basically completed the scoring "0 blocks" against Bynum in a single quarter.

The head coach of the Lakers, Phil Jackson, naturally also discovered that the current interior is restricted.Judging from the body shape, Bynum seems to be much stronger than Wang Dachun.

But he could see that Bynum's upper body strength was stronger in the competition on the court, which could limit Wang Dachun's empty scoring, but his lower body strength obviously couldn't squeeze Wang Dachun who looked thinner than him.

So adjustments were made, and Bynum was replaced 2 minutes after the opening of the fourth quarter, Gasol was pushed to the center position, and Odom played to defend Nowitzki who returned to the field at the same time.

Let Pau Gasol pull Wang Dachun from the inside to limit his ability to protect the inside frame.

No adjustments were made to Bryant's singles, and Ariza was sent to replace Radmanovic, allowing two strikers to rush to the basket to grab rebounds.

From Phil Jackson's point of view, Kobe's hand feels good today. He just wants to hit the giant planet, give Kobe unlimited fire, and let Kobe play a team alone!
Phil Jackson's tactics were very successful, and Kobe is worthy of Kobe Bryant. The Lakers led the Mavericks by five points in the 8th minute of the fourth quarter.

After Paul Gasol and Wang Dachun faced each other, it also limited Wang Dachun's ability very well. If Wang Dachun dared to help defend Kobe who was attacking the inside, Kobe would give the ball to Paul Gasol. You must know that Paul Gasol has a skill The very accurate mid-range shot made Wang Dachun afraid to help defend casually.

This forced Mavericks coach Carlisle.Wang Dachun had to be replaced, let Nowitzki top the center position, and Bass was replaced to defend Odom.At least Bass doesn't suffer in terms of strength, and he still has a certain ability to score on his own.

But in the end, the Mavericks still failed to catch up with the score and lost to the Lakers 107:114.

科比拿下了全场的最高分35分，王大春上场18分钟拿下2分9个篮板2次抢断2个盖帽。
