I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 149 In the Name of Teacher

"He pulled me to the back so hard, isn't that called a foul?" After Chu Xiao was intercepted, he immediately went to the referee to argue.

The referee shook his head blankly, and the game continued.

"This is too outrageous!" Chu Xiao helplessly spread his hands in protest.

"Kidd is so old and cunning. He is very good at taking advantage of the gaps in the referee's whistle. He keeps moving his hands, but he uses just the right amount of force. Referees usually don't blow whistles, but the people being defended feel uncomfortable." Kobe came over to comfort him. Said, "It's okay, you can pass the ball to me, play without the ball, and fly all over the field with Kidd, his 39-year-old body won't last long."

After Kobe said this, Chu Xiao also calmed down a lot, "Boss, I want to try again. His 39-year-old body may be my only breakthrough."

"OK!" Kobe didn't say much, patted his shoulder and walked away.

Chu Xiao received the ball and continued to dribble towards the midfield, but this time he walked a bit slowly, knowing Kidd's defensive strategy like lightning in his mind, and then looking for a solution.

When he was still on the side of the half court, he started to dribble the ball in small steps, and after the half court, he changed to a step dribble. Kidd leaned over again. Do not pay attention to how fast the movements are, but strive to be slow, which is a change of direction in slow motion.

Kidd also hesitated briefly when he saw this, and it was difficult to judge which side he would break through for a while.

Chu Xiao seized this hesitation, quickly moved forward to close the distance and performed an early change of direction. Kidd was very handy in defending this breakthrough method, and immediately took a step forward, almost colliding with Chu Xiao. , and then stretched out his feet to stumble and get stuck, making it difficult for him to dribble smoothly.

Chu Xiao had been waiting for him to continue defending like this. Seeing that the time was right, he pulled the ball back suddenly, dribbling in front of his body instead of dribbling behind him, his body swayed, he took a step forward, straightened his back, and continued to lean up against Kidd. The moment he came to stretch his foot, he changed direction sharply and turned around quickly, leaving Kidd behind him before reaching out for his jersey, and then strode to the edge of the three-point line.

"Good boy!" Kobe shouted excitedly.

Chu Xiao was about to pass the ball, but found that his teammates were being defended one-on-one, and there was only a blank space in front of him. Without hesitation, he got up and shot from a long distance.

The moment the basketball was about to leave his fingers, something bumped his body. The force was not strong, but it was enough for him to stagger in the air, and even the trajectory of the basketball was deviated a little.

So the ball hit the iron. Fortunately, Warcraft grabbed the rebound, dribbled on the ground, got up and prepared for a layup, Chandler, who was ambushing under the basket, saw this, and made a very big foul, directly hitting Howard staggering, The ball was also pressed to the ground.

The referee whistled and Warcraft made two free throws. 3-4.

During this process, before Chu Xiao landed on the ground, he lowered his head and saw that it was the old demon Kidd who bumped into him. He knew that he couldn't jump as high as Chu Xiao, and he wasn't tall enough, so he didn't jump at all when he shot. He took off to block the block, but used his steady lower body to resist him. The strength was just right. If you didn't look carefully, you would only feel that Chu Xiao shook slightly. The movement was not obvious. Naturally, the referee didn't call a foul, but it was enough to change His shooting trajectory is off.

Even Zen Master and Knicks coach Mike Woodson, who was sitting on the sidelines, couldn't help but praise, "His defense made me seem to see Kidd when I was young, with experience and quick response."

After Chu Xiao landed, Kidd smiled at him, "When you shot the ball, I didn't even look back. I only need to listen to the audience's reaction to know that you missed the ball."

"Oh, you're really good!" Chu Xiao responded while waiting for Warcraft to make a free throw, "I already know your defensive strategy. Although the ball was interfered, it's already halfway through. I'll definitely take it in the next round. It will hit, if you don’t believe me, just wait and see.”

Kidd continued to say unforgivingly, "It can't be called a success if it is half done. As long as I stand here, you can't make a hit, because you are not Kobe and James."

He took the top players as an example.

Chu Xiao's mood was not affected, he was following Kidd's defensive strategy.

He is the one who accepts Kobe's one-hour bombardment one-on-one every day, and has a certain degree of understanding and insight into the defensive strategies of top players.

Kidd's defense is a strategy to maximize his own resources.With his age, his body can no longer keep up with the footsteps of young people. He has no speed and height, but he still defends against superstars such as James. own resources.

When the opponent dribbles and breaks through, he can always accurately judge the opponent's offensive line based on his experience, and then block his footsteps and body position in advance; when the opponent shoots, Kidd, who has no height advantage, will use his steady bottom Hold the opponent and make the opponent's shot less comfortable.

This may be the reason why he can remain evergreen in today's age of breakthrough guards.It can be said that countless shooting masters shot inaccurately under Kidd's defense; countless breakthrough fighters frequently dead the ball when facing Kidd's defense.

Simply put, if Kidd were 10 years younger, he would be a defensive nightmare for a penetrating guard.

It's a pity that he is no longer young after all. Even if he relies on experience, prediction and strength to make his defense look unbreakable, he still has flaws.

When Chu Xiao was talking to Kidd, he heard his vibrato due to his shortness of breath, which indicated that the previous defense had consumed a lot of his breath, causing his breath to become disordered, and his physical strength would also decline later, so his pace would become slower and slower .

And Chu Xiao had used continuous changes of direction and turns to break through his defense in the last attack, but he hesitated when shooting, and Kidd, who arrived later, used his skill to destroy the must-score goal, but this gave Chu Xiao Akatsuki's confidence and inspiration to break through his defensive blockade.

Warcraft made two free throws and Kidd continued on the outside with Stoudemire. The latter succeeded in a jumper and the score was 6-3.

Chu Xiao continued to dribble against Kidd. In fact, both sides knew that even if Chu Xiao couldn't break through Kidd's defense in a short time, as the latter's physical strength declined, the latter would eventually appear powerless.

But Chu Xiao is a character who doesn't fight for steamed buns. If he waits for Kidd to lose his physical strength before completing breakthroughs and scoring, then this is the same as playing for an amateur player. Even if he wins, there is no sense of accomplishment. There is no chance to return the trash talk that comes out.

Therefore, Chu Xiao wanted to take advantage of his physical strength to complete the leap over this old monster.

He continued to explore while walking, and after approaching, broke through and changed directions several times. When Kidd thought he was going to repeat the trick, he turned around and stepped forward while swinging the ball over the top to the other side. This was a false breakthrough. Taking the position of the small top, not only got rid of the relatively slow Kidd, but also rushed to the three-point line and shot with a raised hand, hitting a three-pointer!

"Yes!" Chu Xiao clenched his fists after landing, then turned to Kidd and said, "How about it, I can enter if I say so."

"It's just luck." Kidd obviously refused to admit defeat.

Speaking of which, Chu Xiao did have a bit of luck.

On a whim, he used a small spinning top to move his position, but this extraordinary method was born out of Kobe's "small spinning top in situ".

In games or heads-up with Chu Xiao, Kobe often used the "in-situ spinning top" to leave the defender behind, and then faced the "empty basket" to score.

This trick looks simple, but it needs to be used flexibly in series with other offensive and defensive techniques. It also plays the role of finishing touch.

The main point of the specific action is to dribble, jump and stop suddenly, so that both feet can be used as pivot feet, keep the ball in front of the chest to avoid being cut, sweep the ball down while turning around, and swing the ball when turning forward and stepping Go over the top to the other side, and observe the defender's reaction to proceed to the next step. If the defender shrinks too much, you can pull up the shot, and the defender can break through without moving, or first induce the defender to shift his center of gravity to one side. Break through to the other side and so on.

Chu Xiao was used to Kobe using this trick, but he rarely used it himself. When he faced Kidd's defense, he turned around with the ball and remembered this trick, and then matched the turn with the ball with the small spinning top. Combined, successfully get rid of the relatively slow Kidd, thus causing damage.

With this stroke of luck, Chu Xiao seemed to have found a breakthrough, and then frequently used this trick to succeed, forcing Kidd's teammates to appear within the three-point line at any time, posing a threat to him in defense .

In this way, Chu Xiao attracted the defense of two people, so he calmly assisted his teammates to score.With Kobe and Artest getting his assists consecutively, the game was tied at 6 after 15 minutes.

At this time, Kidd's physical strength dropped significantly, and his personal defense was no longer able to do what he wanted. He had to retreat to the three-point line, and then used the help of his teammates to defend Chu Xiao. In the duel between a young man and a young man, Chu Xiao won by relying on the positioning of Chu Xiao's little spinning top.

Seeing this, Nash sat on the bench and grinned from ear to ear: the apprentice won, and he, as a master, naturally has more face.
