The Way of the Center

　　 The first quarter will end with the last 18 seconds left, and at this moment, it is the Portland Trailblazers that are in control of the final attack in the first quarter.

Derek Fischer's skill makes Kobe sitting off the court miss very much. Although there are only more than ten seconds left in the game, Fischer's possession of the ball is still calm. This guy, but the big heart who completed the 0.4-second lore feat that year! 18 seconds is more than enough for him. He organized his teammates to run without hesitation. Under Fischer's command, the rest of the Trail Blazers didn't mess around.

Lakers backup point guard Steve Blake stepped forward to defend, but Fischer veteranly used a hand to hold Blake, while preventing the ball from being taken away, while slowly holding the ball to continue advancing.

J.J. Hickson and Meyers Leonard began to make walls for their teammates, and the running positions of Courtney Lee and Batum made the Lakers players nervous.

The tension of the Lakers is not without reason. "Thanks to" the poor defense of the Lakers' second team, Courtney Lee and Batum have made several hits from beyond the three-point line.

This time, Batum borrowed Hickson's pick-and-roll to get into the corner, while Devin Ebanks, who was defending Batum, was stuck by Hickson.

Fearing that Batum would shoot immediately after receiving the ball, Jordan Hill had to switch defenses with Ebanks, leaving him to stare at Batum, who was running towards the corner.

At this moment, Fisher suddenly dropped the ball into the penalty area. Ebanks, who was in front of Hickson, couldn't reach the ball at all, and Hickson controlled the passing lob with a light leap. After receiving the ball, because Ibacus was defending around the front, Jordan Hill was pulled out by Batum, so Hickson will face an empty basket!

As an insider with excellent athletic ability but slightly rough technique, Hickson won't get too many offensive opportunities in a game. This time facing an empty basket, how could Hickson let it go!

He exerted strength with his legs and jumped high, placing the ball behind his head with both hands, and after gliding for a certain distance in the air, Hickson raised his arms and attacked the frame vigorously.

"Da!" The hoop made a huge noise, and the whistle sounded at the end of the first quarter.

"Fisher's pass is very deadly. This guy's assists are not as fancy as Nash, but they are very practical. He always sees opportunities on the court. This guy is definitely a rare and valuable senior metronome!"

Weak defense and the same pale offense, this is how the Lakers' second team performed on the court. 22 to 30, if one more round trip, the Blazers might be able to widen the point difference to double digits!

"Good job, good job! Come on, let us continue this performance." Ricard rushed to rest and applauded the players, and An Jie also led the team to high-five the players who had just left.

"You guys are playing too messy! Paul, I need you to pull bigger and don't stay near the basket! Nash, get the ball faster, don't grind the position with the Trail Blazers, in that case you just fall into In the pace of the Trail Blazers!" On the Lakers side, the bench players did not get any encouragement or attention after they left the field. They sat back on the bench like air, and D'Antoni took up the tactical board and started to fight. The starting player speaks.

"Do you want to expand?" Paul Gasol couldn't believe what D'Antoni said. As an insider and Kobe's most powerful assistant, Paul Gasol, the European super tower, couldn't get close to the penalty area! What a joke!

"That's right! You have to use your range to threaten the Trail Blazers defense to open up space for Kobe and Dwight's offense." D'Antoni may not realize the meaning of Gasol's rhetorical question. He actually gave Gasol played the role of this tactic.

Gasol nodded disappointedly. He is not the kind of player who can collide with the coach. But not contradicting, does not mean that Gasol is satisfied with these arrangements.

Unlike the ghosts of the Lakers, the tactics Ricard arranged for his men have been unanimously approved by everyone.

"Damien, increase the number of outside shots, Andre, your empty position will be a great deterrent to the Lakers' defense! Wesley, I want you to find a space outside the three-point line at all costs. As for Ann and LaMarcus, I don’t need to say, you guys know what to do, right?” Ricard simply drew a few tactics, Lillardken was obedient, and Iguodala was a panacea. There were three people who worked together last season, and the Trail Blazers had no running-in problems at all. Therefore Ricard can also make enough arrangements in a limited time.

"Okay, we are almost done! This season we have been stared at by countless pairs of eyes, and everyone is waiting to see our jokes! But we have to use our actions to tell that group of people that we are **** true It's very strong! Lakers F4, this combination is simply suitable for us to use the knife!" Ricard's irritability usually allows him to arouse the emotions of the players.

"The boss is right! The championship, starting with the victory in the first game!" Anjie also yelled in line with Ricard. After he finished speaking, he opened his palm to the position in front of his abdomen. After that, more and more Trail Blazers players put their hands on An Jie's palm.

"One, two, three." An Jie called the number.

"Blazers!" The others yelled out the team name.

This battle naturally attracted the attention of the Lakers bench not far away. Some of them really envy a team like the Trailblazer...

Therefore, as soon as the second quarter came up, the Lakers' first offense ended in failure.

Nash's passing is exquisite, and it also has to match the lineup of the Suns. The Lakers today are simply not suitable for D'Antoni, nor for Nash.

Possession of the ball stayed on the perimeter for a while, but the Lakers players still did not clear the tactics. There is no way, Nash has to hand over the ball to Kobe.

"Ball!" As soon as Kobe received the ball, Howard leaned on Angel and shouted. When this guy was in the Magic, as long as he fell to a low position, he had unlimited firepower. However, everything changed after arriving at the Lakers. Howard had to yell to remind Kobe that this is not his game alone!

"Fuck." Kobe was reluctant to pass the ball, but for the sake of the team, Kobe still gave up the ball.

Howard leaned on An Jie simply and rudely, hoping to get himself close to the three-second zone by back-beating.

An Jie also gritted his teeth, his chest hurt by Howard's strong shoulders. But no matter how much pain he suffered, Anjie knew that this step could not be retreated!

After several attempts to no avail, Howard planned to hand over the ball. Gasol, who pulled to the middle distance, became Howard's first choice.

Howard's passing skills can be described by the word "horrible". The ball he passed to Gasol was short and fast. Just bend down to catch the ball, which cost Gasol a lot. Vigor. After receiving the ball, he got up and prepared to shoot, when Aldridge had already jumped in.

Gasol saw Howard was covered by Angel, Bryant and Nash were entangled with Matthews and Lillard respectively. So there was no way, Gasol had to shoot!

Aldridge's defense is better than Gasol thinks, the ball Aldridge seriously interfered with Gasol's shooting rhythm. And that basketball, without a doubt, knocked out of the box.

Anjie and Howard touched the basketball almost at the same time, but no one could control it. The basketball took off again under the flick of the two fingers, and when it fell for the second time, Iguodala, who rushed in from the outside, rushed to grab the rebound, stifling the risk of An Jie’s miss. Possible.

After successfully defending, the Blazers were chasing after victory. Lillard easily entered the penalty area under Anjie's control. However, Ci Shiping's timely defense made the physical confrontation not good Lillard missed a layup. But fortunately, the referee's whistle sounded very timely, and this was an uncontroversial foul action by Ci Shiping!

Ci Shiping glared at the referee fiercely, but nothing changed. Lillard made two free throws, and Anjie once again helped the team finish scoring without scoring.

With the successful start of the first quarter, the Blazers players have more confidence and their offense is more fluid.

Under Ricard's arrangement, the Blazers' five shots on the field are relatively even. As a result, the Lakers' defensive difficulty also soared. Because everyone on the field has the ability to become an offensive end point!

The Lakers' game is getting more and more foul as the game gets worse, and the point difference is getting bigger and bigger. It wasn't until the points difference became 15 that D'Antoni was finally willing to call a timeout.

But now the minds of the Lakers players are completely inconsistent, even the best coach, it is difficult to make a new look of scattered sand.

"Kobe, Dwight, increase your number of singles!" D'Antoni, who was forced to do nothing, only hopes that these two guys can use their personal abilities to let the team get through the difficulties temporarily. And Kobe, was greatly stimulated by this sentence. He decided that after coming back from the timeout, he had to start the scoring mode!

The timeout ended soon, and Nash, as always, came in and handed the ball to Kobe as always. But this time, even if Howard is a heart-piercing shout, Kobe has decided to control the ball himself!

In order to prevent Kobe, Ricard even let Iguodala and Matthews switch defenses, and Iguodala personally dealt with the black Mamba. Kobe also found that it is a lot more difficult to complete the breakthrough than before, but an Iguodala still can't extinguish Kobe's offensive frenzy.

Kobe put his shoulders against Iguodala's shoulders and chest and slipped to the bottom line. He hoped to launch an attack from the wing of the basket. But Iguodala's defensive pace is so fast that Kobe himself didn't expect it.

That's it. The most important thing is that Anjie is already sideways at the basket at the moment, waiting for Kobe to shoot himself. Even though these and other reasons point out that Kobe's attack is not an opportunity, Kobe still resolutely decided to attack the frame!

Take off, raise the basketball during the limited time in the air, and then avoid the stretched arms of Anjie and Iguoda. When Kobe avoided all this, he also flew to the other side of the basket.

Kobe didn't even look at the rebounds, and directly relied on feeling to make a backhand. In this way, he successfully scored in a sandwich between the two defensive champions of the Trail Blazers!

With 13 points, the point difference is still in double digits, but Kobe didn't have the slightest fatigue and complaints~www.NovelMTL.com~ broke through and made fouls, made unreasonable three-pointers, and skilfully turned his back on a jumper. Kobe seems to be back in the past, back to the era when he lacked helpers. Under his desperate attack, the number of points difference has become 5!

Subsequently, Ricard replaced all the starters except for Angel, and D'Antoni replaced all the starters except Kobe. Obviously, these two teams are the star players and will withstand the pressure during the lineup handover.

An Jie looked at Kobe unconsciously, but Kobe just bit on the jersey, his frowning brows were not stretched after the game started. This guy just relied on himself to bite the score when the Lakers had no fighting power.

The Trail Blazers have played well enough, but the Lakers can't get rid of it. Looking at Kobe's various behaviors, An Jie understood it.

It is not difficult to beat the Lakers, but only if Kobe is knocked down can the Blazers have a chance to win! And defeating Kobe, this is also the most headache for the Blazers in this game. Because of the game so far, Kobe has never fallen! God knows how to make a guy like Kobe succumb.

"It's been a long time since I met such a ruthless character." An Jie moved his muscles and bones. The crazy Kobe is really a terrible opponent!

Knocking down Kobe, even for the current powerful pioneers, this is not a simple task.
