"I really didn't expect that Adrian first broke through Ryan Gomez, and then played Jefferson with a crotch pass. If the final layup hadn't been too bland, this was a shot that could be included in the top ten this month.
A wonderful goal." Kenny Smith also regretted Adrian's final handling.
It's like watching a famous painter who is about to finish a beautiful painting but scribbles carelessly on the last stroke, and the style immediately drops several notches.
His eyes returned to the court. When he found himself humiliated by Adrian dribbling, Al Jefferson immediately became furious. As soon as he reached the offensive end, he immediately squeezed Pau Gasol and grabbed a position quickly.
The hand wants the ball.
In fact, Jefferson's position was not very good, too far away from the basket, but Jefferson firmly opened his hand for the ball. After Telfee thought about it, he passed the basketball to Jefferson. No matter what he said, Jefferson
Ferson is also the current star player and team boss of the Timberwolves.
He made several fake moves in succession, and Jefferson was facing the frame and with his back to the basket. Unfortunately, although Gasol has some shortcomings in strength, in terms of defense, his experience is quite sufficient, and Jefferson obviously also
Without the strength advantage to bully Gasol, he couldn't find a good opportunity to attack. Seeing that there were less than six seconds left in the attack time, Jefferson knew that his best choice now was to quickly get the ball.
He wanted to spread the word to see if there were any other opportunities, but the humiliation of being teased prevented him from doing so.
After shaking a few more times, Jefferson finally found a gap in the blockade of Gasol's long arms. Taking advantage of this gap, Jefferson reluctantly threw the basketball toward the basket.
Everyone can see that Jefferson's laziness is very reluctant. The trajectory of the basketball flying in the air is also very uneven. But this shot hit the top of the backboard and bounced directly into the basket.
"Ah!" The shot hit. Jefferson immediately yelled and punched in Adrian's direction to celebrate.
"Jefferson seemed a little excited today." Kenny Smith said slowly: "He seemed full of passion."
"Come on Kenny, can't you really see that? He is demonstrating to Adrian. Don't forget, he was just crotched and humiliated by Adrian." Charles Barkley looked disdainful.
He said: "It's just good luck that I scored one. What's the big deal? I have to score more than a dozen such simple goals in every game."
"Really? Charles, but I remember you only averaged two mid-range shots per game?"
"That kind of thing is not important. What is important is how Adrian will respond to Jefferson's provocation. Will he continue to play singles?" Charles Barkley said enthusiastically: "Maybe Adrian just scored a goal.
Can do it again."
Adrian really didn't feel anything about Al Jefferson's provocation. However, after reaching the offensive end, Adrian passed the midfield and directly asked Fisher for the ball. This time, Fisher
Er directly handed the basketball to Adrian.
Normally, Adrian always requires himself to strictly follow the tactics, even if the tactics harm his interests. He will complain and demand, but on the court, he will still act according to the tactical requirements assigned by the coach. But today,
Anyway, this is also his last game with the Lakers, and Kobe also agreed.
Adrian decided to pamper himself and do something he had never tried before.
Go and score, try your best to score!
Inspired by Adrian's previous lesson of two steps to get rid of him, Ryan Gomez understood that there was a big gap in speed between himself and Adrian. This time, the defense seemed more careful, and he let go of Adrian in one and a half steps.
distance to prevent Adrian from suddenly accelerating away from himself.
Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa……
The rhythm of the basketball kept changing in Adrian's hands, and it was like a dissonant noise that made Ryan Gomez feel uncomfortable. Suddenly, Ryan Gomez discovered that Adrian seemed to have made a small mistake, and the basketball
When it bounced off the ground again, Adrian didn't seem to have a complete grasp of the basketball, which made the beating basketball seem to be somewhat out of Adrian's control.
Take action, take action quickly.
Seeing this flaw, Ryan Gomez instinctively chose to steal. His arms are very long, which gives him a great advantage in stealing. Even if the steal fails, he may not lose his defensive position.
Bang bang...
Adrian slapped the basketball hard, as if the out-of-control basketball suddenly returned to Adrian's control. Ryan Gomez completely missed it, and the ball was handed to his left hand. Adrian once again got rid of Gomez and rushed towards the goal.
Inside, he rushed directly towards Jefferson.
This time Jefferson did not choose to save. He did not want to be tricked by Adrian like he just did. Although he knew that Adrian's mid-range shot was quite accurate, he still chose to stand still inside.
Adrian did not choose a mid-range shot, he jumped directly towards Jefferson.
"Look for the cover!" This behavior, which was obviously intended to work on his own head, completely annoyed Jefferson. He took a step forward, jumped high, and waved his long arms to cover the basketball in Adrian's hand.
Seeing that a block was about to be produced, Adrian, who was in the air, suddenly handed the basketball to his right hand, turned sideways to avoid Jefferson's block, and gently picked it up with the fingertips of his right hand, and the basketball slipped in obediently.
Basket.
"Beautiful, Adrian played a perfect trick on Gomez. Facing Jefferson's block, he tricked Jefferson with a hand layup in the air. Although his offense always lacks some passion,
I have to say he is so smart and good!" Charles Barkley roared loudly: "Adrian responded to Jefferson's provocation. Now it's Jefferson's turn. What will happen to him?
Choice? Look, he really wants the ball!"
Under Barkley's loud exaggeration, the start of the game turned into a scoring duel between Adrian and Al Jefferson. Although the two were in completely different positions and there was no face-to-face confrontation, the two
People are really just playing one ball at a time and one at a time.
Jefferson once again singled out Gasol. This time Jefferson was stuck in a good position, which gave him more offensive options. He bumped back twice in a row, and suddenly turned around and pretended to shoot a fadeaway jumper.
, deceived Pau Gasol stretched out his hand to block the shot and then took a step forward to cut into the basket and score.
However, the situation faced by Jefferson is far more severe than that of Adrian. Although Ryan Gomez is not a big colander on the defensive end, his defense has never been strong, although he has a pair of seven-foot-two inches.
He has long arms. Although his basic defensive skills such as lateral sliding are very solid, his lack of speed on the defensive end is his fatal flaw on defense.
With his speed advantage alone, Adrian can defeat Ryan Gomez on the offensive end, not to mention Adrian's strength, which is enough to crush Gomez.
The defenders faced by Jefferson couldn't catch the basketball on the offensive end anyway, so Gasol simply focused all his energy on the defensive end. Although Gasol's defensive skills are not as famous as his offense, his confrontation ability is better.
The shortcoming of weakness is also real, but coming from Europe, which emphasizes team basketball concepts and basic skills, Gasol's defensive footsteps and movements are very good, especially Gasol's height advantage over Jefferson.
Adrian singled out Gomez for the third time. This time he chose to fake a shot and deceive Gomez's defense. Then he took one step inside the three-point line and made a jump shot. Adrian felt something was wrong when he shot, but
The basketball hit the back edge of the basket and bounced off the backboard. After several bounces, it still fell into the hoop.
Jefferson failed to sustain his scoring momentum. Although he still chose to play singles, his shot bounced out of the frame due to Gasol's interference. When the basketball hit the basket, Adrian did not
He went to compete for rebounds, but directly chose to play quickly.
The rebound was confiscated by Bynum. He looked at the frontcourt and immediately threw the basketball hard towards the Timberwolves half with both arms. Adrian rushed straight to the basket like an arrow from the string. Gomez was
Adrian was chasing after him. Although he tried his best to defend, the gap between him and Adrian not only did not narrow at all, but also widened rapidly.
When Adrian jumped up to catch the basketball that fell in the air and took three steps directly, Gomez was already three bodies away from Adrian.
Under the basket, the unguarded Adrian lightly jumped up and picked up the basketball with his fingertips. For the fourth time, and four times in a row since the start of the game, Adrian put the basketball into the basket.
"Cough cough cough..." Kenny Smith's face turned red from holding back. When Adrian came down quickly and Gomez couldn't keep up, he was already ready to shout in celebration, but he didn't expect it.
, even when there was no interference, even during a fast break, Adrian still chose to end the attack with a layup instead of a dunk.
"I just said, you shouldn't believe him." Charles Barkley said with a smirk: "It's not easy to see this guy dunk. I remember I watched fifteen Lakers games in a row.
The guy only dunked twice. If it weren’t for those two dunks that were so exciting, I even doubted that this guy didn’t know how to dunk!”
The programmers at s probably forgot to load the dunk package for Adrian. I have to give them a call and they should pay me for this bug." (To be continued...)
