Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 193 Kobe VS Stockton
Facing a small and fast guard like Stockton, using speed to exceed the opponent's designation is a miss. Therefore, Kobe just used a simple trick to change direction and fake, then he lowered his shoulders and accelerated, ready to squeeze the opponent away with strength .

Unexpectedly, Stockton, who secretly strengthened his lower body strength training, pushed him back.

Kobe was startled, and found that Stockton suddenly became not much different from Payton, except that he was not as dark-skinned and had a big mouth.

One thing that makes a point guard uncomfortable is that while breaking through, he must also pay attention to the movement of his teammates. He needs to achieve the state of "one mind and two tasks". This is somewhat uncomfortable for Kobe, who has always aimed at the basket.

In desperation, Kobe had no choice but to keep dribbling the ball under his crotch, and suddenly a sharp through ball was passed to O'Neal, who was moving laterally.

Although O'Neill was very uncomfortable being pushed by Malone's iron elbow, the moment he caught the ball, his blood surged and he temporarily forgot the pain in his body. Out of position, clinging to the eyes like a gecko.

"Brother Shark, pass the ball to me!"

Zhou Yu yelled loudly while cutting.

On a whim, O'Neal made a beautiful pass behind the back and passed the ball to Zhou Yu smoothly.

After getting the ball, Zhou Yu suddenly found that the Jazz's defense quickly retreated, and the forced shot was a bit unreliable. The next second, he quickly passed the ball to Van Exel who came in from the other side.

Van Exel was not reckless either. Seeing that Kersi near the bottom corner was clearly open, he made a beautiful half-air pass back and gave the ball to Kersi.

Kersey lightly stretched his ape arm, and made a steady three-pointer. The basketball crossed a high parabola and hit the net with a crisp sound!

"10:5", the Lakers led the Jazz by five points, widening the gap again!

In this round of offense, the Lakers rarely played a five-player coordination, and performed the overall offense to the extreme, which is gratifying.

Harris adjusted his glasses with a look of relief. The Lakers finally played an overall strategy. Winning the game has nothing to do with the coach.

The Jazz made a comeback, Stockton held the ball halfway, and made a gesture of pulling away arrogantly, and his teammates dispersed immediately.

This is obviously a singles rhythm for Stockton. Kobe, who was just deflated, bit his lower lip tightly, vowing to get back on the field.

In fact, although playing a pick-and-roll can temporarily avoid the defensive player in front of you, it will also attract another defensive player at the same time. With singles tactics, as long as you have good skills, you can use breakthroughs to attract double-teams and distribute the ball to the weak side. teammates.

Generally speaking, the two tactics have their own advantages and disadvantages. There is no perfect tactic on the basketball court. It depends on whether you can make use of your strengths and avoid weaknesses.

Facing Kobe's close defense, Stockton gave full play to his advantage of being small and fast. First, he dribbled the ball behind his back to open up some space. Suddenly, he changed direction and accelerated, and his body flashed past Kobe like a piece of paper.

The Lakers' defense immediately retracted, and Hornacek on the Jazz's perimeter appeared open, but Stockton did not pass the ball.

When O'Neal came to make up defense, he also missed Malone who was pulling to the middle distance of the bottom line. After receiving a wonderful pass from Stockton, Malone immediately cast a matchbox fadeaway jumper. After the crisp sound of "swish", the basketball Hollow into the net!

Compared with hitting the inside, Karl Malone's mid-range jumper is obviously more reliable, but it is really difficult to guard against.

"10:7", the Jazz narrowed the point difference again, and the breakthrough tactics of the two teams worked very well.

"Brother Shark, watch out for Malone's mid-range shot. His mid-range shooting percentage is as good as Jordan's."

Zhou Yu patted O'Neill's butt and reminded him kindly.

"Wang, I get it. Ma Long is a disgrace to an inside player. Apart from elbowing people, he is pulling outside to 'sneak at dogs'."

O'Neill said angrily.

"Brother Shark, you can also play some 'conspiracy', but only if you don't let the referee find out."

Zhou Yu couldn't help but said.

"Let's forget it, I'm such a big guy, the referee will see clearly if I make a little move, I'd better be an honest person."

O'Neill sighed, a little frustrated.

Zhou Yu was secretly amused. Others don’t know O’Neill, so he doesn’t know. Gathering people to watch blockbuster movies, seeing beauties drooling, and using computer software to change the headshots of hot beauties with Wen Xiaoya’s, isn’t it all his fault? , To be honest, he doesn't even believe in aliens.

In contrast, Kobe was even more humiliated. He was defended once by Stockton, who was a bit shorter, and succeeded in breaking through again, which can be described as embarrassing.

What makes him even more upset is that many media have voiced their opinion that Wang Zhizhi, who is also a 96 rookie, is much more mature than him, and his performance on the court is more stable.

Therefore, in this round of offense, he wants to use scoring to get back the field. After a continuous crotch dribble, he immediately made a pull-up and a jumper in front of Stockton. He didn't have to worry about being hit. to the cap.

It's a pity that Stockton's close defense still somewhat interfered with him, causing his mid-range shot to hit the iron.

After the Jazz grabbed the rebound, they immediately organized a fast-break counterattack. Stockton quickly advanced with the ball.

Zhou Yu naturally couldn't catch up with Stockton's taillights, so he could only try his best to prevent the Jazz's three-pointers from outside.

The Jazz's fast-break three-point running position was very precise, and it went straight to the Lakers' weakness. Seeing Stockton's right shoulder shake, Zhou Yu immediately activated Mourning's "chasing and blocking" skills, walked like flying, and went straight to Horner on the right Seck is here.

Hornacekwan didn't expect Zhou Yu's speed to be so fast, and he came close almost in the blink of an eye. Under the pressure, he had to increase the arc of his shot, and as a result, he threw an embarrassing "three non-stick".

Kobe grabbed the rebound, and the Lakers turned from defense to offense. Kobe was willing to go all out with the ball. He passed through several Jazz players with the ball, went straight to the basket, and used a powerful one-handed dunk. . Malone.

The audience was overjoyed, the Lakers fans were excited, screams and roars were mixed together, and many blonde female fans put up eye-catching banners saying "If you want to love Lakers, if you want to marry, marry Kobe".

"12:7", the Lakers lead the Jazz by five points.

In the opening stage, the two sides played very well, with all kinds of cool basketball moves emerging one after another, but the score was a bit low, especially the Jazz, who did not score in double figures after more than five minutes into the game.

"Old man, it seems that we have underestimated the Lakers. The Lakers are not only young and energetic, but also very calm. They are not so easy to deal with."

Stockton walked up to Malone and said with deep emotion.

"Yeah, one O'Neal is enough for us, plus Wang Zhizhi and Kobe, these old bones of ours really have to work hard."

Malone felt the same way.

"In my opinion, we still have to focus on Shaquille O'Neal and Wang Zhizhi. One of them is powerful inside, and the other has comprehensive skills and a calm mind. As for the 'stupid youth' Kobe, we can let it go for a while. The kid is relatively easy to deal with."

Stockton rolled his eyes and suggested.

"I agree that Kobe's two brushes are indeed nothing to fear. The main reason is that O'Neal and Wang Zhizhi are difficult to deal with, especially Wang Zhizhi. His passing vision is wide and his skills are amazing, making it difficult for people to find routines."

Malone nodded in agreement.
