lakers championship

Chapter 123 You don't know this trick, do you?

The phrase "that man is back" was originally intended to be given by the DJ to Kobe who was watching the game.

Unexpectedly, Tianyang scored a 3-pointer directly against Gordon's defense as soon as he came up, and his shooting action was exactly the same as the ultra-long three-pointer in midfield last Christmas, which made DJ blurt out involuntarily.

The Rockets attacked, Harden received a pass from Capela in the backcourt, and wobbled to the frontcourt.

Calderon was about to step forward to defend, but Tianyang grabbed him and signaled him to come.

Take the initiative to take up the heavy responsibility of defending the opponent's top scorer!

Kobe stood up and applauded, and the fans also stood up and cheered.

What could be more exciting for Lakers fans than the number one rookie in the team, taking the initiative to challenge the league's number one shooting guard?This is the same as when Kobe took the initiative to back Jordan.

Harden also seemed to be willing to cooperate. After the dribble reached the right wing, he didn't beckon for a pick-and-roll, but he didn't pay attention to Tianyang either.

On the other hand, Tianyang's legs were slightly bent, and his right hand was raised high, ready to fight.

He really wants to make a steal, but he also knows that Harden is good at using the defender's steals to draw fouls.

He slowed his breathing, stared at Harden's shoulder, and waited patiently.

Suddenly, Harden moved, retreated gracefully, raised his hand and threw a three-pointer.

Tianyang stepped on the ground with both feet, flew to the cover, and barely touched the basketball with his fingertips.

Unfortunately, the flight trajectory of the basketball was not affected in any way, and it hit the backboard and bounced into the frame.

In the past, the fans at the scene would have sighed in disappointment, but this time, they collectively applauded Tianyang, thinking that Tianyang's courage is commendable.

But for the layman to watch the excitement, the insider to watch the doorway, Tianyang's defense this time made the commentator Mitchell on the sidelines exclaim: "He can touch the basketball with his fingertips, it's unbelievable!"

When Mitchell said this, he didn't deliberately look for an angle to clear the ground for Tianyang's failed defense, but that there are very few people in the league who can defend Harden's step-back three-pointer. This time he can touch the basketball with his fingertips, and the next time he takes off How about a little faster?

Turning back to the Lakers offense, Calderon dribbled the ball across half court, stopped two steps outside the top of the arc, stretched out his hand to direct his teammates to move, and prepared to execute the 1 inside 4 outside movement offensive tactic.

But Wharton on the sidelines waved his hand, signaling to Tianyang to handle it.

In Wharton's view, if the Lakers' strict implementation of the established tactics is equivalent to picking up 100 catties of sesame seeds, then allowing Tianyang to build up his absolute confidence in the first game of his career is equivalent to picking up 100 tons of gold.

After receiving the command, Calderon immediately passed the ball, and Tianyang left wing received the ball and put on a three-threat posture.

The fans once again followed Kobe to stand up and cheer.

Facing the defense, Tianyang first held up the basketball and made a fake shot. He didn't know whether Harden didn't want to stretch out his hand to defend or was completely indifferent.

Tianyang changed his strategy, took a step to the left with the dribble, then immediately changed hands behind his back and dribbled to the right.

His two actions are completed in an instant, as fast as Google Chrome.

But Harden just moved his body and walked to the left, and his reaction speed was about the same as that of IE browser, and he couldn't keep up with his rhythm at all.

Tianyang didn't hesitate anymore, he pulled the ball back directly, and took a step back to make a shot. Harden froze on the spot and didn't make a defense.

The basketball rushed into the hoop like a flying meteor, and Tianyang treated him in his own way.

It's a pity that the left foot stepped on the three-point line, which can only be counted as 2 points, but the fans still cheered.

In the TNT commentary seat, Barkley raised his hands, shook his body from side to side and shook his shoulders in celebration.

"1 points in 5 minute. I just came back and played for 25 minutes without much pressure. Getting 30 points is as stable as eating turkey on Thanksgiving. This time I bet right!"

On the court, Harden dribbled the ball across half court, and Tianyang went up to meet him again.

But Harden didn't seem to have the desire to single out, and raised his hand to pass the ball to the top of the arc.

Gordon received the ball without hesitation and strode the ball straight to the inside.

Calderon could keep up, but couldn't stop his progress.

The two walked to a reasonable collision zone, and Gordon threw the ball over the ring.

Capela jumped up like a dry land, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and slammed it towards the hoop.

But McGee suddenly flew into the air like a spring that lost its restraint, and slammed the dunk abruptly.

The basketball flew upside down at high speed, and Randle and Ryan Anderson rushed to the sideline at the same time.

The pace of the two was still a bit slow, unable to catch up with the basketball.

But Randall flew off the court and scooped the ball back into the court.

The basketball was flying in the direction of Tianyang and Harden. Tianyang was about to rush up to grab the ball, but was pushed away by Harden.

The fans booed immediately, and Kobe took the lead in shouting fouls.

The referee turned a deaf ear to it, but fortunately, Tianyang buried his head and rushed forward to grab the basketball before Harden made a move.

After getting the ball, Tianyang immediately turned around and ran up the field.

Unexpectedly, Harden and Anderson, who was already on the sideline, double-teamed him directly.

One is tall and has long arms, the other has a strong body and a wide body. It can be said that they are impenetrable to Tianyang's double-team.

Seeing that he was about to make a mistake and lose the ball, Tianyang lay down on the ground and threw the basketball forward from Harden's feet.

At this time, Ingram, who was on the center line, took advantage of the opportunity to pick up the basketball, made two consecutive moves of swaying sideways and changing hands behind the back, elegantly got rid of Ariza's pursuit, and then rushed to the basket single-handedly, and scored with both hands. .

Randall pulled up Tianyang who was lying on the ground, and Ingram ran back to half court to give Tianyang a high-five. All the fans in the Staples Center were excited.

In the round just now, the three young Lakers players showed their superb basketball skills and unparalleled desire for victory, especially Tianyang took the initiative to pass the ball on the ground, which was a stroke of genius.

Turning back to the Rockets' attack, Harden seemed a little upset, and stopped directly after halftime to dribble the ball under his crotch.

With such an action, it was clear that they were going to be singled out, and the Rockets players on the field quickly opened up space,

I saw Harden bending over, dribbling the ball back and forth in front of his body, and staring back and forth in different directions.

In the last 8 seconds of attack time, Harden raised his right shoulder and started to rush to the basket.

Tianyang estimated that he might not be able to withstand it, so he chose to back up and wait for the opponent to make a shot before making a block.

Unexpectedly, Harden rushed to the free throw line, suddenly took a big stride with his left foot, and made a European step to the left.

Ordinary people should be unable to guard against it at this time.

But the second technique Tianyang learned was the Eurostep, which was Wade's style.

He had expected Harden's action, he kicked his toes on the ground, twisted his body and rushed forward.

Harden was obviously taken aback, and then gave up the layup and changed to a throw.

But this step was also expected by Tianyang. He jumped up early and stretched out his right hand to block Harden's eyes.

After landing, he smiled at Harden and said, "I will do this trick too!"

Harden made a shot and McGee jumped high to catch the rebound.

Calderon took the ball and took it to the frontcourt. When he reached the right wing, he subconsciously glanced in the direction of Wharton.

Wharton nodded and Calderon passed the ball to Tianyang.

At this time, Tianyang was in the low position on the right side. He took off to catch the basketball with both hands, and then singled Harden with his back.

After pushing it twice in a row, it really didn't move, and Tianyang immediately swayed "right, left, right, left".

But Harden held his back firmly, unaffected by his feint.

At this time, there were only 2 seconds left for the back attack, Tianyang gave up the feint and turned around directly.

Harden immediately took off to block the shot, but Tianyang didn't make a jump shot after turning around. Instead, he slipped to the basket, faced Capela's defense, and threw a shot to hit the board.

The basketball bounced into the basket, Tianyang turned around and smiled at Harden, as if to say, "You don't know this trick, do you?"
