So Bynum threw the ball directly to the bottom corner on the left, and Artest was ready to catch the ball there by then.
Lian Dao rushed towards Artest almost when Bynum made a pass.
At this time, the speed advantage of the clean rice played a great role.
Artest was shocked when he saw Lian Daoxun's rapid movement speed. He received Bynum's pass and shot directly.
However, Lian Dao arrived at this time, raised his arms and stepped forward to interfere with Artest's shot.
Artest's shooting was originally practiced the day after tomorrow, and it was not very stable. With the interference of Lian Dao and his eager attacks.
The result was that he directly voted for one without any tricks!
"Oh, hahaha, Meta actually threw a three-no-touch. This guy's strength has really deteriorated. Even if the great Jazz Charles comes on the court, he will be stronger than this guy without him. Hahaha, if Kobe wants to find a helper,
You can choose a great jazz, at least I won’t cast three no-touches!”
When Barkley saw Artest's three-button, he laughed and mocked.
Putting aside Barkley's current real strength, just talking big-mouthed Barkley's trash words is definitely not as good as that of the past.
Lian Dao knew that Artest's shooting was unstable, so he dared to give up on him and double-team Bynum.
Now it seems that this decision is very correct.
Atast's three-nothing fell into Xiao Si's hands.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Si handed the ball to Holiday, and the Knicks had all fast attacks and defended and counterattacked!
Lian Dao, Xiao Si and Tony Allen formed a trident and went to the frontcourt.
Holiday handed the ball to Lian Dao who was about to go down quickly at the same time, outside the three-point line.
After Lian Dao received the ball, he was about to brake quickly, then dribbled the ball under his crotch, pulled back, and watched Lian Dao's signature step back three points.
At this time, Artest, who was chasing the defense, hurriedly changed his defensive center of gravity, tried to overcome the inertia of the sudden start and stop, and then rushed towards Lian Dao.
But then Lian Dao, a large crossover, easily passed by Artest.
Artest's center of gravity was completely on the projection of Liandao. He never expected Liandao to break through again, which caught Atest off guard.
The Lianjiu who passed Artest directly rushed to the inside line.
The empty Lakers inside lineman became the stage for Lian Dao's performance, flying into the battle axe with a domineering look.
This domineering sound instantly ignited all the fans of the audience, and the fans of the entire Madison Square Garden stood up excitedly and cheered.
Even Artest, who showed all his strength, could not stop Lian Dao's score.
6:9!
The Knicks began to gain the upper hand!
Lian Dao, who finished the goal, glanced coldly over Artest, and there seemed to be nothing in his eyes.
The crackling of Liandao encouraged the Knicks' momentum.
In the first quarter, the Knicks played very fiercely. With the cooperation of Lian Dao and Xiaosi, the Lakers did not hit a counterattack climax in the first quarter.
At the end of the first quarter, the score between the two sides reached 24:28.
Lian Dao scored 15 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, accounting for more than half of the Knicks' score.
In the first quarter, the Lakers did not use the previous double-team tactics in the first quarter, but it was declared invalid when Tony Allen hit two bottom corner three-pointers.
Of course, Tony Allen cannot completely limit Kobe's performance. Kobe scored 10 points and 3 assists in the first quarter, while the Lakers were more offensive in the inside in the first quarter.
But even so, he can still score 10 points, which can be a hit. Tony Allen shook his head.
Although the two have not yet fully matched in this game, they have been competing.
Especially Kobe, every time Lian Dao scores a goal, Kobe always responds to one offensive end. This actually goes against the Zen master's tactical arrangement, but fortunately, Kobe can score the ball in many cases.
However, at the short break at the end of the first quarter, Kobe was a little dissatisfied with Atast's defense in the first quarter.
So he said directly to the Zen master: "I defend the silk in the second quarter. As for the Knicks' second position, you let other players defend!"
The Zen master knew Kobe's personality and was not surprised by Kobe's request.
After thinking for a while, he nodded. Now, Zen Master has no good way to deal with Lian Dao. In addition, this game is back-to-back. They consumed too much physical energy against the Celtics yesterday. If they couldn't be in front.
If the score is widened in the third quarter, then the fourth quarter is likely to collapse directly due to physical fitness reasons.
If Kobe is allowed to defend Lian Dao, there may be some miraculous effects.
Kobe sat on the bench and had Lian Dao in his mind. Since losing to Lian Dao before, Lian Dao has become the player Kobe wants to defeat the most. At this moment, his competitive spirit reached its peak.
In the first quarter, neither Artest nor Matt Barnes restricted Lian Dao's performance. Although these two men's defense was fierce, Lian Dao was not afraid at all.
On the other hand, because Lian Dao and Xiao Si's pick-and-roll cooperation was excellent in the first quarter, especially after Lian Dao's pick-and-roll, they were very outstanding in shooting and breaking with the ball, so D'Antoni still focused on pick-and-roll tactics next.
Not only Xiao Si, but Cousins was also asked to cover Lian Dao at the outside and at the middle distance.
D'Antoni knew that if he wanted to win this game, he still had to rely on the performance of Lian Dao.
"Sickle, it depends on you in the second quarter. We have an advantage in the first three quarters, and the Lakers in the fourth quarter are not to be afraid!"
After D'Antoni finished speaking, the whistle sounded at the beginning of the second quarter.
In the second quarter, the Knicks attacked first, and Lian Dao also planned to tease Artest and try to add fire to this guy in the second quarter, but in a blink of an eye, the defender in front of him had been replaced.
No. 24?
Integrity rice:???
"Kobe, I knew you wouldn't help it. Come on, let me see your defensive strength. Your teammates couldn't help but play. They were timid at the end of the first quarter. In the end, they were just a simple-minded guy!"
Lian Dao saw that Kobe was defending himself, and Artest was not far apart, so he said deliberately.
Sure enough, Artest heard Lian Dao's trash talk and stared at Lian Dao angrily, as if he was ready to give Lian Dao a elbow at any time.
But then, Lian Dao immediately gave Artest a provocative look.
Liandao: Come and scatter, beat me, beat me, beat me, beat me!
Seeing Artest was about to step forward and punch, Kobe glared at the sight of death, and Artest walked away in disappointment.
"It's indeed a softie..."
"Shut up! Bastard! If you can defeat me in the last fight, it doesn't mean you can defeat me this time!" Kobe then glared at Lian Dao angrily, directly interrupting Lian Dao's next trash talk.
Kobe is really worried that if this guy continues to talk, Artest will really go crazy.
He was not worried about Lian Dao, he was worried that Artest would be beaten to death by Lian Dao. Kobe learned from the information about Lian Dao's Kung Fu.
In addition, Kobe cannot believe the outcome of the match against the black player of Lian Dao last season.
Lian Dao also took a breath of cold air. Sure enough, this guy was revenge and he still could still remember it when he fought last time.
What a petty guy!
Lian Dao did not continue to talk to Kobe. He ran without the ball. After cutting into the penalty area, he received a low pass from Xiao Si and then planned to attack the basket.
During this period, Kobe did not use his physical defense like Artest and Barnes. Kobe focused all his attention on the basketball in Lian Dao's hands.
So, when Lian Dao received Xiao Si's pass, Kobe seized the opportunity and slapped the basketball in Lian Dao's hand with a slap.
"Kobe, it was Kobe who stole Lian Dao's basketball. The speed of this steal was just like his title "Black Mamba" predating. It was rapid and precise. Kobe gave Lian Dao the first mistake in this game.
.
After the steal, Kobe did not hand over the ball to Steve Breck, but instead controlled the ball and attacked by himself.
Lian Dao hurriedly returned to defense, but his mind was just a steal like a "Black Mamba".
Being thinking about this guy is no different from being targeted by a poisonous snake.
Outside the three-point line, Bynum provided a high-level cover for Kobe, and Kobe was waiting for an opportunity to break through.
Seeing this, Lian Dao and the Knicks players immediately shrank the basket.
By the time Kobe reached the basket, all the Knicks players were around him.
Well, with Kobe's offensive ability, he deserves the best defense!
