Chapter 57 The Entanglement of AK47

Smith was relatively neutral, "The Lakers did not play well in the first quarter. They gave the Jazz too many chances to score easily on the offensive end. Moreover, when he was attacking, Kobe started to do it alone again. He ignored Li Du. Ignored Odom, I even feel he ignored all his teammates! If Kobe doesn't change this, the Lakers will be in danger today!"

The magician sighed, but still said a little stiffly: "Kobe can't be blamed for being behind. He has worked hard enough. He is doing what a team leader should do! Today the Lakers are not only Kobe, but many people are out of form. This is the direct reason why the Lakers trailed by 8 points in the first quarter!"

Barkley also kept shaking his head, and said: "Anyway, the Lakers are now 8 points behind the Jazz in the first quarter. Today, Phil lost to Sloan in the formation of the starting lineup in the first quarter!"

Ma Long also accepts as soon as he sees it. He analyzed: "I have watched the Lakers' games before. In those games, Li Du played a very important role on the defensive end, but today he was assigned to the small forward position. Kirilenko. The Russian is not a main offensive point in the Jazz, even if Li Du can't defend him, it won't have much impact on the team's situation!"

The magician also analyzed: "Phil is a last resort. If Li Du is allowed to defend Deron, it can indeed limit Deron's scoring, but once Deron wholeheartedly organizes the team's offense, everyone like the Jazz will But for a team that takes the initiative to attack, the defensive pressure on the other players of the Lakers will inevitably increase greatly! Moreover, the Lakers have very few players at the small forward position, if Li Du goes to defend Deron, what about the other perimeter players?"

Smith nodded in agreement, "Phil has minimized the loss, which is considered well-intentioned. But the next thing the Lakers have to solve is the offensive problem! If Kobe continues to play singles like this, the outcome of this game will not be decided for the time being." No matter how much his physical strength and hit rate will be reduced!"

Kobe obviously thought of the problems mentioned by several commentators. In fact, it is not that he has no other teammates today, but that the Jazz's defense today is very targeted!
Deron will have no problem defending Fisher, and Boozer will not suffer at all against Odom. Li Du is followed closely by Kirilenko all the way, and there is no chance.More importantly, Li Du didn't seem to run out of space much today. Even if Kobe wanted to pass the ball to Li Du, he had no chance!

Kobe felt that other people had no chance to attack, so he had to choose to go it alone, but others also felt that Kobe played so hard today that he wanted to score by himself, so everyone simply stood and watched Kobe play.

This is a misunderstanding between teammates!Originally, this kind of misunderstanding could be explained clearly in a few words through a simple exchange, but in this energy center filled with fans boos and shouts like a tsunami at every moment, communication has become extremely difficult!

And Kobe's character, he doesn't bother to ask everyone to move.If you work hard and you want to win, then run!If you don't want to work hard, forget it, I can handle everything by myself!That's what Kobe thought.

Looking at Li Du standing on the sidelines, among the entire Lakers team, Kobe may be most satisfied and admired by Li Du.And Li Du is still a rookie, he made mistakes, as long as it is not a big problem, Kobe is more tolerant.

So Kobe stepped forward to look, and said loudly in Li Du's ear: "Li, what's wrong with you today? It seems that you didn't try your best!"

Li Du stopped his momentum, and then said back to Kobe: "Boss, it's not that I didn't try my best, but that the Russian I was defending really didn't attack!"

Kobe shook his head, Li Du's voice was almost covered by the surrounding fans' voices, Li Du didn't say it again, Kobe heard it, and then he said to Li Du: "It doesn't matter, after a while, you will still be on the defensive end." Good. When attacking, you try to move, and I will try to find gaps to pass the ball to you!"

Li Du nodded, he was always convinced by Kobe's words.What's more, Kobe is kind to him!

Just over 3 minutes into the second quarter, the score of the two teams has become 35 to 23, and the Lakers have fallen behind by a full 12 points!If the score gap is further widened, and there is the opponent's home court here, it will be almost impossible to catch up!
So the Zen master had no choice but to replace the main force back on the field in advance.

Sloan is sure to win this game. The main players had enough time to rest in the first quarter. Not long after the start of the second quarter, he replaced all the main players.

After Li Du played, Kirilenko stood beside Li Du and said contemptuously to Li Du: "People call you a miraculous rookie, but I don't see anything miraculous about you. You're just a rookie, miraculous, don't you see?" Got it!"

Kirilenko was originally from Russia, and English is not his mother tongue. Unlike Li Du, who grew up in the United States, he is very familiar with English. Therefore, when he defends others, he rarely provokes the opponent, let alone rubbish. words.

Maybe it was Li Du's almost disappearing performance in the first quarter that made him dismissive of Li Du in his heart, or maybe it was because the media praised Li Du so much that he was upset, so he started to provoke Li Du for the first time.

Li Du also knows that many NBA players talk trash to each other and provoke each other during the game, but the opponents he met before were either gentle and modest, such as Nash and Ray Allen; You have to be afraid of him and dare not say more, such as Lewis, Davis and Bargnani.

Kobe has reminded Li Du more than once that in the face of provocation, whether it is verbal, physical, or in the game, as long as the opponent provokes, he must fight back strongly to show his toughness!
Moreover, Li Du himself is a martial arts practitioner, and he would never back down when faced with provocations!So Li Du sneered, looked at Kirilenko and said, "You are so courageous that you dare to challenge me directly! You should be lucky that you have very little offensive power in the Jazz team, otherwise, I will let you see and see. What is despair!"

Without waiting for Kirilenko to speak, Li Du ran forward slowly, but Kirilenko cursed secretly, so he had to follow quickly.At this time, Li Du's voice drifted into his ears, "But on the offensive end, I will teach you a profound lesson, Russian!"

There was no chance for Kirilenko to speak again. Li Du just settled down, and when Kirilenko followed him to the bottom corner, Li Du suddenly started to speed up and ran towards Kwame Brown who was standing on the edge of the penalty area.

Although Kwame Brown's mental quality is not very good, he is physically strong. Li Du often played off-ball screens with him in previous games.

Kirilenko hastened to defend, and when he was about to be blocked by Kwame Brown, he also had his own way.Li Du ran out from the bottom line with the help of Kwame Brown's cover, but Kirilenko saw that his line of defense was blocked by Kwame Brown, so he stopped following the bottom line and went around the upper line to pursue defense.

Although it seems that Li Du is far away from Kirilenko, Kirilenko is actually blocking Li Du's receiving route. If Kobe passes the ball to Li Du at this time, he will stop him [-]%!
