Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 445 The Most Reliable Scorer

"61:59", Zhou Yu used his strong singles ability to give the Lakers the lead.

How could Rasheed Wallace be willing to give up? He raised his head to the sky and roared twice, and then desperately fell to his position, preparing to single-handedly fight Zhou Yu to save face.

Zhou Yu knew that Wallace's low-post singles also relied on shooting, as long as he guarded against his overhand shots, he could handle them.

Therefore, during the defensive process, Zhou Yu focused all his attention on Wallace's shooting, and waited to reward him with a solid "big hot pot" when he shot.

Sure enough, after Wallace got the ball, he just punched Zhou Yu on the back a few times symbolically, then turned around and straightened his arms, ready to shoot overhand.

Zhou Yu immediately opened his arms and pounced on them. The height difference between the two was not much different, and they were fighting for jumping and explosive power.

Perhaps even "Roaring Tianzun" himself did not expect that the yellow-skinned Zhou Yu's jumping ability was so amazing. In desperation, there was a subtle change in the shape of his shooting hand. Although he was not blocked by Zhou Yu, the ball he threw was Out of the basket.

After O'Neal grabbed the rebound, the Lakers immediately launched a fast-break counterattack. Kobe quickly advanced with the ball, and Van Exel and "Madman" quickly crossed positions.

Fortunately, Pippen, Harper, and Kukoc's three back defenses were in place in time, otherwise, Kobe's one-handed gliding split will be staged again.

Faced with Pippen's entanglement, Kobe also fought hard, using a large-angle cross-over dribble in front of his body to shake out a little space, and then stopped suddenly and shot a jumper.

Kobe played this ball a little too hastily, probably because he wanted to prove himself too much in front of Pippen. After all, Pippen is Jordan's right-hand man. If even Pippen can't handle it, how can we talk about surpassing Jordan.

Although Kobe's mid-range shot was not covered by Pippen, it finally bounced out of the frame. Kukoc grabbed the rebound and passed the ball to Pippen immediately, and the Blazers turned from defense to offense.

Pippen passed the half court with the ball unhurriedly, and when he came near the top of the arc, he suddenly accelerated to catch an overhand jumper. Pippen's arms are really slender enough, even though he didn't jump high or lean back much. , Kobe, who defended him, still couldn't cover him.

After a crisp sound of "swish", Pippen's mid-range shot made a steady hit!
"61:61", the two sides drew again.

"Xiao Su, did you see that Jiang is still old and hot. Although Pippen's jumping ability and explosive power are not as good as the young Kobe, his experience and stability definitely have the upper hand. The goal just now was really beautiful. It is enough for Kobe to learn a lot." It's been a while."

Zhang Weiping, who was on the commentary seat, made a speech.

"Yes, Director Zhang, Pippen gives people the feeling of stability. Although the movements are not beautiful enough, they are very practical and worth learning from the younger generation."

Su Qun nodded.

Zhou Yu felt very sorry for Kobe's counterattack by Pippen just now, but he knew in his heart that Kobe's self-esteem was very strong, so he couldn't be more provocative, so he could only comfort him.

"Kobe, I think we should be a little more stable. The Trail Blazers have better game experience than us. We need to play more patiently."

Zhou Yu walked up to Kobe and persuaded him gently.

"Wang, don't make insinuations. I know how to play. You don't need to teach me."

Kobe snorted coldly, with an unconvinced expression on his face.

Zhou Yu suddenly felt like a stick in his throat. The idol in his heart, although he didn't talk about his game skills, his words were really unacceptable.

In the next round, Zhou Yu stopped counting on Kobe after getting the ball, but cooperated with O'Neal on the inside. He first lobbed the ball to O'Neal, and then quickly made an air cut to respond.

O'Neal made a clever pass behind his head, and Zhou Yu immediately formed a tendency to attack the basket when he got the ball.

However, he did not shoot rashly, but squatted down and made a fake shot, which made Wallace, who was chasing behind him, block the shot.

The next second, Zhou Yu jumped up and slammed the ball into the basket with one hand!
"63:61", the seamless connection of the "Twin Towers of the Lakers" made the team take the lead again.

Rasheed Wallace, who had been deflated one after another, was completely angry. Pippen held the ball just past halftime, and he raised his hand and desperately asked Pippen for the ball while he was stuck with Zhou Yu.

It's a pity that Pippen didn't dump him at all, and he still sorted out the team's offense unhurriedly.

Sabonis mentioned that the high position made a screen for Pippen, and Pippen took the opportunity to shake off Kobe and quickly move down with the ball.

O'Neal, who was switching defenses, followed closely. Pippen suddenly jumped up and put on a layup shape, crossing the ball in midair to Kukoc who came in through an air cut.

Kukoc passed the ball back to Harper who was outside the three-point line. Harper raised his hand and made an open three-pointer. The basketball crossed a high parabola and hit the net with a crisp sound!

"64:63", the Blazers overtook the Lakers by one point!
In this round of offense, the cooperation of the new version of the "Bulls Iron Triangle" can be described as amazing. Even if you don't look at people, you can probably know the position of your teammates.

At this moment, Zhou Yu finally felt the horror of Pippen. His every move has a long-term vision, and Kobe, who threw a few difficult goals on a whim, is by no means comparable to the "madman".

Compared with the tacit cooperation of the Blazers' outside trio, the Lakers' outside trio headed by Kobe still relies more on temporary enthusiasm.

At present, the only thing the Lakers are better than the Blazers is Zhou Yu himself and O'Neal. Therefore, Zhou Yu pays more attention to echoing with O'Neal.

Sadly, the generals of the Blazers also seemed to see Zhou Yu's intentions, and adopted a forward defense against O'Neal, or even a front and back flanking tactic, which made it more difficult for Zhou Yu to pass the ball and O'Neal to catch the ball.

In desperation, Zhou Yu chose the low post singles. Once he fails to make a shot, he still hopes to work together with O'Neal to grab the rebound.

Seeing Zhou Yu coming at him again, Wallace screamed angrily, wishing he could slap him to death.

Zhou Yu was not disturbed by the roar of "Roaring Tianzun", and gradually penetrated into the penalty area with flexible and continuous turns.

When he came near the penalty area, he used Olajuwon's "dream footsteps", turned around and shot false shots continuously, successfully swayed "Roaring Tianzun", and finally used a light forward step for a layup, sending the ball into the Blazers basket!
"65:64", the Lakers overtook the Blazers by one point.

Zhou Yu proved with practical actions that he is the most reliable scorer for the Lakers.

Immediately afterwards, Pippen continued to organize the team's offense. Since Sabonis faced limited threats when facing O'Neal, he simply mentioned high-level support.

O'Neal knew that his shot had two brushes, so he didn't dare to shoot too far, so he had to follow. Zhou Yu was the only one guarding the inside of the Lakers.

Pippen, Harper, and Kukoc took the opportunity to strengthen the breakthrough with the ball. The outer defense line composed of Kobe, "Madman" and Van Exel was once again penetrated by the tacit passing and cutting cooperation of the new version of the "Bulls Iron Triangle".

Kukoc received a through pass from Pippen and went deep inside to face Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu was miserable, and there was a "roaring Tianzun" beside him, so how could he not take care of both ends.

Fortunately, Kukoc's emergency stop jumper missed, and Zhou Yu used his outstanding bounce speed to grab the rebound and pass the ball to Kobe.

Kobe quickly advanced with the ball, and made an emergency stop for a jumper when both players were unsteady.

Fortunately, Kobe made a successful mid-range shot this time, adding two more points for the Lakers!
"67:64", the Lakers led the Blazers by three points, and finally opened up a little distance.

Seeing Kobe's recklessness, Pippen was also driven to a whim. When he dribbled the ball near the top of the arc, he suddenly tapped his toes and made a three-pointer.

After the crisp sound of "swish", Pippen's gambling three-pointer actually scored!

"67:67", the two sides tied for the Nth time!
