super small forward

Chapter 380 380. This game is very strange

D'Antoni glanced helplessly at Kobe, this guy who wants to save face, anyway, that is also an 'honor', isn't it?Not everyone can achieve such a record.

Kobe's style of play seems selfless, but in D'Antoni's view, it is extremely selfish.

Passing the two balls to Green and Liu Ren, Kobe has a chance to shoot directly, and there is a high possibility of scoring.

But Kobe made a pass, allowing Liu Ren and Green to catch the ball in a place that was not usually offensive, causing the opponent to hit two counterattacks in a row to overtake the score.

Some people don't know what happened to Kobe today, such as Liu Ren, but most of the fans at the scene, like D'Antoni, already know why Kobe didn't take a single shot today.

D'Antoni decided to let Kobe take this 'honor' quickly. The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain. If Kobe has not completed the 'honor' in this game, then Kobe will continue to struggle in the next game.

In D'Antoni's current tactics, Kobe is an offensive end point, which is used to score, and the possession of the ball has to be reduced. So many possessions have caused the team's efficiency to drop, and Kobe's physical strength can't stand it.

Without saying anything to Kobe, D'Antoni decided to make a substitution.

Talking is worse than acting directly. D'Antoni replaced Jeremy Lin, Liu Ren, and Gasol with LaVine, Clarkson, and Thackeray.

In this lineup, except for Kobe, no score is reliable.

LaVine, a rookie, is still talented. Clarkson has a strong breakthrough ability, but his finishing ability at the basket is average, and his outside touch is sometimes ineffective. Thackeray is good one-on-one inside and outside shooting, but not With regular scoring ability, Green has excellent organizational skills, his offensive ability is being honed, and the three-pointer also needs to be honed.

In short, this lineup points to Kobe to score!
Kobe's expression is not so natural now, but he is naturally thicker when he is old.

There were more than 3 minutes left in the first quarter, and Liu Ren was surprised that D'Antoni replaced him at this time. In such tight games, he usually played the first quarter and took a break halfway through the second quarter. 2 minutes and then continue playing.

At this time, he was replaced, which was the first time this season.

Liu Ren didn't understand the new lineup. Four players who couldn't attack by themselves for the time being?Liu Ren and Henry changed positions and sat next to D'Antoni.

"Coach, why didn't Kobe take a single shot today?" The first quarter was not over yet, Kobe had 6 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 turnovers. No matter how you look at these statistics, it's Rubio, not Kobe!

"You don't know?" D'Antoni froze for a moment when he heard Liu Ren's words.

Seeing Liu Ren's bewildered face, D'Antoni coughed dryly twice, with a strange expression on his face, and said perfunctorily, "Let's watch the game, you'll know in a while."

What do you mean I don't know?What should I know?Liu Ren didn't understand, forget it, he was too lazy to think about it, let's watch the game.

Evans was replaced by Ryan Anderson, and Pelicans coach Monty Williams also asked Evans to save his strength to deal with Liu Ren.

The game continued, the Lakers attacked, Clarkson advanced to the frontcourt, handed the ball to Kobe, and came to his most accurate 45-degree angle to open up space.

Kobe's first goal after he came on the court was to organize an offense. Kobe scolded D'Antoni a hundred times in his heart.

Clarkson is active defensively and dares to fight. On the offensive end, he dares to fight in the middle and long distances with one hand open, and dares to fight even against the defense.

Although it is fine to do both things well, after all, he is a young man, and it is still difficult to deal with Cole, an old fritter who has won two championships.

Thackeray has a resolute face, a bear-like body, and high fighting spirit. Now he has developed a certain mid-range shooting ability and three-pointers, and has begun to practice low-post post-up skills. He is likely to be an excellent role player in the future.

LaVine has super physical fitness and is a good spot-up three-point shooter and counterattack pioneer.

Green is an all-around fighter that Kobe believes is second only to James among the current players in the league, and under the guidance of the coaching staff, his scoring ability has been steadily improving. It is estimated that in the future, mid-range shots and even low-post singles will not be bad...

Kobe has black lines all over his head, none of these guys can attack, okay!

The complaints belong to the complaints, and Kobe also knows what D'Antoni thinks. D'Antoni is doing the right thing in Kobe's opinion, but he just doesn't plan to vote!
Kobe gestured for Green to come out for the pick-and-roll.

Green ignored him!When D'Antoni made the substitution, he secretly told this brother that pick-and-rolls are not allowed.

LaVine stands in the left corner to open up space, Clarkson is at a 45-degree angle on the left, Thackeray is in the middle distance on the right side of the free throw line, and Green is in the low post ready to grab rebounds at any time.

Kobe made several gestures, but no one paid attention to him.

Kobe looked at D'Antoni, and D'Antoni coughed twice and turned his head to talk to the assistant coach.

The bastard!Kobe is angry!He looked fiercely at Eric Gordon who was defending himself.

Gordon's heart skipped a beat when he saw Kobe's murderous eyes.

As a rookie in 08 and a rookie of the Lakers and Clippers, after Gordon entered the league, he quickly showed super talent and became the star of the Clippers.

He also witnessed Kobe's two consecutive championships at the same time. Because of inertia, Gordon would think of Kobe who was invincible in those years when he saw Kobe, and unconsciously lowered himself to a higher level.

Kobe is ruthless!Blast Gordon!

Gordon couldn't stop the ruthless Kobe at all, and watched Kobe go to the inside, facing Anthony Davis' defense, Kobe fell back and forced a shot.

Anthony Davis blocked the block and touched Kobe's wrist, the referee whistled, and the ball fell into the basket with the whistle, 2+1!

Nice goal!
Liu Ren looked at No. 24 playing like this, this is the familiar Kobe!

But what surprised Liu Ren was that the audience actually made a "Oh..." sound, instead of the usual "Wow..." sound when Kobe scored 2+1.

How is this going?Are they unhappy when Kobe scored?
Liu Ren was even more at a loss, but his teammates and the coach seemed to know what was going on, and he was the only one who didn't know.

Liu Ren didn't want to act like an idiot, so he didn't ask.

"MVP..." The audience shouted MVP again, and Kobe made a free throw amidst the shouts.

Liu Ren was even more puzzled. How could these fans be so enthusiastic when they made free throws?

Kobe entered the regular Kobe time, and the defensive end also began to be fierce. He started hand-to-hand combat with Gordon, and vented all his resentment on Gordon.

As the third scoring point of the Pelicans, Gordon has averaged 16 points per game so far this season, second only to Anthony Davis and Ryan Anderson, who has just been replaced. He is the most stable outside scorer of the Pelicans , he can't even connect the ball now.

Anthony Davis had to catch and shoot the ball in the middle distance, and no one paid attention to him after he left the paint.

Iron, Anthony Davis has a good shooting posture, but he is not a good shooter now, and he is developing his outside ability.

Green showed potential in double-doubles per game, grabbing the rebound over Asik and handing it to Bryant.

Kobe advanced to the front court, and other players continued Kobe's position to form a "five-element formation". Kobe also understood that these guys were just waiting to see his jokes.

"Well, I want to show you how powerful I am!" Kobe was about to vent his evil fire on the pelicans.

Kobe bit his jersey!

The fans at the scene cheered when they saw Kobe biting his jersey.

"This show-bag!" Liu Ren was very 'jealous' of Kobe's popularity.

"Wow, Kobe is going to show off. It's the first time I watched Kobe show off as a teammate. I'm really a little excited." Korver said excitedly.

Liu Ren gave Korver a blank look, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "By the way, Keller, do you know why Kobe hasn't shot today?"

Korver was taken aback: "Why don't you know the boss?"

"That's right, they didn't tell me." Liu Ren said depressedly.

Not only did D'Antoni not tell him, but he asked other people, and the others were silent, just refusing to say.

"Ahem, let's watch the game, watch the game, I actually don't know." Korver didn't want to offend Kobe!It was hard to bleed to get rid of Liu Ren's disgust towards that incident.

Seeing Korver's expression that he wouldn't say anything to death, Liu Ren hesitated, why are these people like this? Even this newcomer is not friendly at all!

The game is still going on.

"Jordan, come get the ball, I'm going low!" Kobe yelled at Clarkson.

Clarkson immediately ran over to catch the ball, and he heard that Kobe had started to be aggressive, so as not to be affected by Chiyu.

Bryant came to the low post on the left side of the rim, guarded by Eric Gordon, and he slammed into Gordon hard, knocked the poor little shooting guard into the paint, and then leaned on the opponent for the ball , Clarkson immediately passed it back.

Without any hesitation, Kobe turned over and shot a jumper immediately after catching the ball. The height difference between the two was too much, and Gordon was not much taller than Paul.

"Shua" accompanied by the sound of the ball going into the net, the audience once again uttered the sound of "Oh...".

"You want me to set a record? I just won't let you succeed so easily!"

Kobe picked up his jersey and returned to the defense.

The big screen cut to the picture of Kobe holding his jersey, and the audience cheered again. Every time Kobe made this action, it meant that the other party was going to suffer!
Insiders who like to shoot three-pointers from the outside are usually soft guys. If Dirk Nowitzki hadn't won the 11 championship, the label of soft guy would definitely be stuck on him for the rest of his life.

If he hadn't won that championship, even if he died for countless years, others would naturally say that he was a coward when they mentioned him.

Ryan Anderson is a big three-point shooter who is loved by coaches in modern basketball, but he does not have the ability to attack independently and can only catch the ball and shoot.

Like now, Ryan Anderson can't catch the ball at all!
