One Guard

Vol 2 Chapter 185: : Kaner on the 3-point line

Quietly inside the Staples Center, throughout the stadium, only the low roar of Yiyang after completing a dunk can be heard.

Sitting on the sidelines, David Beckham was stunned, Jack Nicholson was dumbfounded, and Leonard DiCaprio also hugged his head with his hands.

Even in the star-studded Los Angeles, even in the big-name Staples. Yiyang and Kidd’s air matching performances still stole all the limelight.

"Jason Kidd's pass is really inaccurate! At first, I thought it was Kidd's pass high. But I didn't expect that it was actually received, and it was just right! If you say it is. Kidd was lucky, I wouldn’t believe it. He understood Yi’s ability, so he passed a ball that only Yi can receive. I’m wondering, in normal training, do the Mavericks players often watch the game. People perform like this." Mike Brin’s voice gradually brought back the fans with big mouths in front of the TV. It’s not that there are people who jump higher than Yiyang in the NBA. But among players with yellow skin and black hair, this is definitely the only player who can bounce so terribly!

Kobe slowly ran to his own half, urging Artest to quickly deliver the baseline ball. This No. 24 knew that if he and the Lakers didn't do anything, the momentum of the game would be completely taken away by the Mavericks!

Kobe didn't worry about his singles. After being successfully defended by the smart Yiyang last round, the leader of the Lakers was calmer.

He was observing the situation on the court, and the unfamiliar singles would only make the Lakers sink deeper and deeper. So Kobe reached out and called Gasol to pick and roll, but his goal was not to score himself.

Kobe took advantage of Gasol's cover to break through, and Yiyang quickly got rid of Gasol's "tower" and regained his presence in front of Kobe.

But when Yiyang opened his arms, Kobe did not continue to attack, but suddenly sent the ball to Yiyang's head.

After finishing the pick-and-roll, Gasol, who cut into the penalty area, raised his arm and received the basketball steadily. At this time Nowitzki has been left behind by Gasol, the Spaniard single-handed dunks and scored, which is considered to have found some face for the Lakers.

Have to admit that the strength of the defending champion is indeed strong. If you change to another team, you may have been dumbfounded by the air cooperation between Yiyang and Kidd just now. But the Lakers not only didn't confuse themselves, but can also come up with a response ball. On this basis, the quality of the Lakers has left many competitors behind.

After the Mavericks offense, Kobe let Yiyang feel what is called superstar-level treatment. When Wade and Kobe faced off, the Flash had to resort to pick-and-rolls in order to pass halftime safely. What's more, Yiyang's current strength cannot be compared with Wade at the time.

Kobe's tight blocking and unyielding spirit kept Yiyang unable to run out of the open space for a long time, and Kidd had to re-customize the offensive plan. Fortunately, Marion was in excellent form today. He steadily hit the ball after receiving a basketball at the mid-range position, which allowed the Mavericks to continue the score.

The two sides have fought for a long time in this rhythm of offense and defense. During this time, no one can really establish an advantage, and no one is really at a disadvantage. You come and I go between the two teams, and the score rises with anxiety. It wasn't until the end of the second quarter that Phil Jackson and Carlisle both changed into the rotation lineup, the victory balance finally tilted. Unfortunately, the balance is still tilted towards the Lakers.

This season, the biggest change in the Lakers roster is that the rotation players almost changed blood. As for the Mavericks, due to Yiyang's trade, the rotation lineup has been in short supply.

The second team of both sides can be said to be weaknesses, but don't forget that the Lakers also have an all-around fighter, Lamar Odom!

Odom's performance this season is like a return to light, averaging 14.4 points per game, the highest in the past four years. Now, the weakest point in the Mavericks' staffing is precisely the striker.

When the starter took a break, Carlisle could only use Stevenson to top the third position and Cardinal to play the fourth position. However, no matter who these two guys confronted Odom, they all used the almighty warrior.

Although Stevenson is strong defensively, his height is too high. As for the "administrator" Cardinal, the gap between him and Odom is even more comprehensive.

With Odom's excellent performance in the last few minutes of the second quarter, the Lakers finally ended the first half matchup with a 4-point lead 56 to 52.

Although the Mavericks played well, Nowitzki's continued downturn still made the media more optimistic about the Lakers' victory.

In the third quarter, the two sides still played inextricably. The Lakers can't continue to widen the point difference, and the Mavericks have no way to close the score.

Kobe and Yiyang still have a match, but today Kobe's desire to score does not seem to be that strong. With both Gasol and Odom in excellent condition, Kobe actually passed many good shots for the two of them, instead of choosing to score by himself.

This guy's desire to win today far exceeds his desire to score.

It is precisely because of this that Yiyang was "fortunate" not to be blown up by Kobe after going crazy. He had almost no chance of scoring under Kobe's defense, but Yiyang used his own pass to help Marion and Terry score a lot of points.

That's how the Mavericks offense is. Everyone on the court may become the strongest offensive point in Carlisle's hands. It is possible that the first quarter is Yiyang, and the second quarter becomes Terry.

In the third quarter, the two sides drew 27 in a single quarter. The 4 points difference remained the same, and the Lakers controlled the scene very well. If the Mavericks still can't overtake the score in the fourth quarter, then there will be no chance for them to continue chasing.

"The third quarter is over. Ye who performed well in the first half seems to have completely disappeared in the third quarter. Except for the occasional pass, I seem to be about to forget the existence of Ye. Do you think, Ye Does today’s performance feel like driving high and driving low.” Taking advantage of the break, Mike Brin and Van Gundy also began to chat about the situation on the court. The two sides played very fiercely today. During the game, the two did not have time to analyze these for the fans.

"The Mavericks offense is like this. Although Terry and Marion have scored a lot of points, these two guys rarely performed in the first half. I want to say that playing under Coach Carlisle is like this, because he emphasizes more. The offensive end is integrated, so apart from Dirk, not everyone can take the ball to attack the whole game. I don’t think that today’s performance is going high and low. It’s just the Mavericks in the third quarter. His offensive point is not just him." Van Gundy analyzed this phenomenon from a tactical level, but Mike Brin didn't seem to agree.

"You make sense, Jeff, but the statistics don't lie. Under Kobe's defense in the third quarter, he made a total of 3 shots from the three-point line, but none of them made a hit. This is the same as the first half of the game. When Derek is defensively, he has two different effects. It's not that there is no offense, it's just that there is no goal."

"But also several breakthroughs have achieved good results. You can't say that Kobe's defense completely restricted him. In short, I think if the Mavericks want to take away the victory from the Staples Center, then it will also be the key. The key to this! In the fourth quarter, he won't continue to disappear." Van Gundy said, squeezing his hands into fists and banging on the commentator.

The two commentators didn't seem to notice a problem. Yiyang, as a defender who doesn't like to shoot three-pointers, has already made five shots from the three-point line today! Although Kobe did not make a three-pointer today, but "Black Mamba" only tried 2 times.

It seems that the defeat against the Grizzlies and the additional training after the defeat are still affecting Yiyang's way of playing. This guy is very stubborn sometimes...

"Also, Jeter! You two partner guards! Remember, your task is to score and score!" Carlisle now puts his hopes on Yiyang and Terry, these two guys are the most offensive performance of the Mavericks today. Excellent two people. In the fourth quarter, what the Mavericks need most is offensive firepower.

Nowitzki's shooting percentage fell below 35% again today, and Carlisle doesn't think the German will suddenly wake up in the fourth quarter. Marion has indeed played well, having scored 16 points so far. But the Lakers will inevitably make a lot of arrangements for Marion, and for Marion, who relies on jump shots as the main scoring method, it is precisely the easiest to be watched.

Therefore, Yiyang and Terry, young and old, are the capital of the Mavericks' fourth quarter game and the Lakers.

Carlisle just finished drawing the tactics for the two guards, and the inter-sessional time has officially ended.

When the players from both sides stepped onto the court, Carlisle also saw that the Lakers also sent Odom, who performed well.

Sure enough, "Zen Master" Jackson didn't want to spend time with Carlisle. From the first second of the fourth quarter, this guy intends to start the prelude to the decisive battle!

In this quarter of the game, the Lakers finally got the first strike again. Both Terry and Yiyang's defenses are good, but Carlisle still uses Yiyang, who is a better height, to defend Kobe, even if he is just a rookie.

Fisher took possession of the ball to the top of the arc, and Gasol set up an off-the-ball pick and roll for Kobe.

When Yiyang tried to catch up with the 24 and opened his arms, he discovered that the Lakers' tactics had been completed. Kobe got a 1 to 1 chance with Yiyang, which is the embodiment of the triangle tactics on the offensive end!

Although Kobe is talkative, he barely speaks when he is attacking with the ball because he will distract him.

I saw Kobe staring at Yiyang's feet intently, seeming to observe the defensive position of the No. 1 guard.

Action No. 24 exaggerated several three-threat moves. Yiyang tried to stay calm and didn't shake his center of gravity because of Kobe's actions.

"Good guy!" Kobe looked at Yiyang with admiration, and the Chinese's defense is by no means the level that a rookie should have.

In this regard, Yiyang is really grateful to Stevens, the young Bulldogs coach's usual basic training method, which gave Yiyang a good defensive ability. Of course, this is also related to Yiyang's own calm mentality and strong reading competition ability.

Seeing that it was difficult to break through Yiyang, Kobe took the ball with his back after dribbling the ball for two steps! Yiyang gritted his teeth, Kobe's back attack at the mid-range position may be more threatening than the face frame!

"Bryant played singles with his back, and refused to give up..."

While Yiyang was still guessing what Kobe would do, the Laker was leading but suddenly turned around, striding to the left of Yiyang!

Yiyang hurriedly moved horizontally, moving his legs quickly! But just as Yiyang reacted, the corners of Kobe's mouth were slightly cocked.

He quickly retracted his steps, and then turned around to the right. With this swift turn, Yiyang was thrown away in an instant.

Kobe made a direct jump shot, and the basketball made a steady hit. Facts have proved that the superb back footsteps are not exclusive to the big man and the basket offense. Kobe used a dreamy footstep and played a role in the middle distance!

"He may be the best student in the Olajuwon training camp!" Mike Brin couldn't help applauding Kobe. Perhaps no guard in the entire league can perform better than him.

"It's okay, sink your heart!" Nowitzki picked up the basketball on the floor and patted Yiyang on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

Yiyang pushed forward while gesturing to organize an offense. Kobe can clearly see that there is no emotion on the face of the Chinese flower show to ponder. Is this guy a terminator? Few people will stay in this position after being scored by Kobe with a beautiful goal.

Before Kobe continued to think, Yiyang passed the ball. But this pass was just a transition, it was passed to Terry. Sure enough, as soon as the ball was shot, Yiyang started to move. Kobe naturally followed closely, leaving no room.

Terry's scoring performance today is also very good, so the Lakers defense is actually a bit hesitant. In the end, no one knows whether it is Yiyang or Terry.

At this time, Terry dribbled twice and passed the ball. Kobe became nervous immediately and stretched out his arm to block Yiyang. But Terry's pass goal was not Yiyang, but Dirk who was in the low post.

"Do the Mavericks still put their hope on the Germans?" Mike Brin asked, but soon he got the answer.

After Nowitzki held the ball, he slowly turned to face the frame, Odom blocked Nowitzki with one hand, and waved the other into a net to interfere with the Germans playing the ball.

At this time, Yiyang began to approach Nowitzki. But no one cared about Yiyang, everyone thought Nowitzki would play singles on his own.

The moment Nowitzki crossed Yiyang's side, the German Lakers threw the basketball behind his head!

Kobe was delayed by Nowitzki's screen, and Dirk's pass that was thrown behind his head fell into Yiyang's hands just right!

"Dirk holding the ball is just a cover~www.novelmtl.com~ The real end point is also!"

With the exclamation of Mike Brin, Yiyang entered the 6th time to make a shot from outside the three-point line. Although Kobe was a step late, he still interfered with Yiyang.

Odom and Gasol immediately got stuck. Yiyang made 0% of the three-pointers in the third quarter. How likely is it to hit this ball?

The basketball hit the side of the basket, but did not knock out, but stumbled into the net!

"Haha!" Nowitzki laughed, and Terry rushed to pat Yiyang's ass.

And Yiyang himself raised his arm and pointed out three fingers towards the sky. Lost to the three-point line in two consecutive games? no way!

Yiyang's precise blow cut Kobe off the horse.

The difference between the two teams turned into three points, and the temperature of Staples seems to have risen a lot...
