Chapter 317 The Third Battle of the Western Finals (12)
Artest was ejected and the Lakers replaced him with Gasol.
Odom's three-point shooting is too bad, and his impact on the offensive end is too great.
This is the disadvantage of partiality.
Another reason for playing Gasol is that without Lopez, the Warriors are playing a small lineup, and Gasol will have a great advantage in the paint.
The two teams just had small lineups, and a few minutes of duel has proven that the Lakers' small lineup can't beat the Warriors!
If that's the case, then get on a big guy!
Gasol still has some advantages over DeAndre Jordan.
Jordan had no problem guarding Bynum, the rough guy inside, but it would be difficult for him to guard Gasol alone.
The Warriors currently only have DeAndre Jordan as a center, so adding Gasol will definitely be a problem for the Warriors.
But Zen Master didn't expect that the Lakers replaced Gasol and the Warriors did not replace DeAndre Jordan!
Deng Fang ignored the Zen master's remarks at all.
My lineup is playing well, so let’s keep going!
It doesn’t matter what lineup you’re on!
I can't guard you, and you can't guard me!
Prince still plays center!
Gasol receives the ball inside, and as long as he dribbles the ball, the Warriors will attack him!
Just pass the ball and shoot the three-pointer!
Anyway, I am fast, and I can give you some interference with my defense.
Can't interfere?
Then let you vote!
You can't guard my shot anyway!
It's very difficult for Prince to defend Gasol alone and he needs to attack from a double attack. In turn, it's also very painful for Gasol to defend Prince.
Prince is standing outside the three-point line to see if you can come out!
Not coming out?
Then I'll vote!
come out?
Then there will be no one in the penalty area to protect the frame, and Curry can take free shots whenever he wants!
The few minutes just now have proven that in front of Curry, Farmar is just a kid who gives away points!
I can't guard you, and you can't guard me!
You stab me with a spear, I'll shoot you with a crossbow!
Let’s see who is more powerful!
In two consecutive possessions, the Lakers gave the ball to Gasol.
I just want to play inside!
Of course, the Warriors can't let Gasol succeed. As long as Gasol dribbles the ball, they will attack resolutely.
Gasol is still very good at passing the ball. As soon as the Warriors double attack, he passes the ball out.
One open opportunity fell to Farmar, the other to Vujacic.
Two shots and one hit.
good.
On the Warriors' side, Curry singled out Farmar twice, and both times he broke into the paint.
Although Gasol couldn't come back, Kobe was still able to return to the penalty area to help defend.
But when Kobe comes back to help defend, someone will be missed outside.
Curry found the open Laga Bell twice in a row.
Laga Bell's three-pointer is very reliable.
Laga Bell took two three-point shots and hit them all!
Farmar can't guard Curry!
The Warriors' perimeter is more reliable!
The point difference between the two teams has widened a bit.
At the beginning of the third round, Kobe personally defended Curry!
If you lose this game again, there will be nothing!
It’s time to fight hard!
Limited physical ability?
You have to do it even if you grit your teeth!
I have to say that Kobe is still very fierce.
Kobe didn't have much time to rest in this game.
Since Gasol played very little time, Kobe controlled the ball most of the time on the offensive end.
And the one who defended Kobe was either Laga Bell or Prince, or at worst it was Azubuike!
These three are not good friends!
Many times Kobe had to face the attack from these three people!
Before the third quarter of the game was over, Kobe fell to the ground more than a dozen times just by hugging him!
Therefore, Kobe's physical exertion was extremely high.
Even so, Kobe still chose to defend Curry personally!
No matter what, Kobe is still a giant!
Super giants get super giant benefits!
For the same defensive action, Farmar may be called for a foul, but Kobe may not be called for a foul!
Seeing Kobe guarding him, Curry became more energetic!
It's so boring to fight a soldier!
If you want to do it, do it to your boss!
Is Kobe great?
sharp!
Is Kobe Bryant a good defender?
good!
Not only good, but pretty good!
Is Curry afraid?
Don't be afraid!
Not only was I not scared, I was actually excited!
Curry dribbled the ball outside the three-point line, and Kobe stepped on the three-point line, staring at Curry with all his attention and using all his defensive skills.
Seeing that Kobe was following closely, Curry took a deep breath and took two steps back.
Kobe followed Curry to three meters beyond the three-point line!
Even if I kill you, I won't let you shoot a three-pointer!
Want a breakthrough?
Okay, then I’ll cover you!
Defense pays more attention to physical fitness, and Kobe's physical fitness is quite good.
Curry bent down and accelerated forward, while Kobe quickly took two steps back.
Unexpectedly, Curry stopped immediately after accelerating, collected the ball, raised his head, and shot!
The entire process was completed in one go, without any pauses.
Kobe is retreating!
No matter who retreats, it will be difficult to keep the center of gravity and jump forward!
Although the two were very close, due to Curry's acceleration fake move, Kobe's center of gravity was gone!
At this time, Kobe is just like a wooden stake!
A taller stake than Curry!
Of course, with Kobe's reaction speed and physical fitness, it only takes half a second for him to jump up and block the shot.
But it only takes 0.3 seconds for Curry to take action!
Of course, with a 0.5-second block time, you use 0.3 seconds to take action. Although there is 0.2 seconds of spare time in between, that time is almost negligible!
0.2 seconds is the time it takes to blink!
If it were the vast majority of people, they wouldn’t take action in this little spare time!
As soon as you released the ball, the opponent's hand touched your fingertips!
The one guarding you is Kobe!
Member of the All-Defensive First Team for 8 consecutive years!
With so little time, do you dare to take action?
Wouldn't that be random betting?
No, it's littering!
Most people would not choose to take a shot with Kobe's dedicated defense.
Especially at this distance from Curry!
There are still two meters away from the three-point line!
But facing Kobe is Curry!
Curry has unimaginable confidence in his shooting!
I just can make it, no matter where I am!
I just can take action, no matter who you are!
Although he is a guard, thin and not very tall, Curry has not been blocked once in a season on three-pointers!
You know I want to shoot a three-pointer, but you can't cover it!
I can still stay away, but I can’t let you cover me!
Of course, as long as I take the shot, the ball will go in!
As soon as the basketball left Curry's hand, Kobe's hand touched Curry's fingertips.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit the net!
Looking back, Kobe angrily gritted his teeth and yelled, "Shit!"
I defended so hard, but I still let you score!
Still three points!
Turning his head and looking at the ground, Curry's feet were still two meters away from the three-point line!
Looking down, I saw that Kobe, who was guarding Curry, was standing more than one meter outside the three-point line with both feet!
this……
It’s okay to defend yourself!
If all of these are involved, there is nothing we can do.
It's not that our army is incompetent, it's that the enemy is too powerful!
