Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 109: [1 wave hit, refused a losing streak]

Kobe Bryant continued to play in the last quarter, Guo Xu and O'Neill took the bench together.

Guo Xu now carries three fouls, averaging four fouls per game since the start of the game, the Lakers' number one foul machine, and the league's second highest, second only to the Nets champion Kenyon Martin, who averaged 4.5 fouls per game.

Jackson didn't think Guo Xu was fouled much, and praised him on the sidelines. "You are doing very well on the defensive end, and continue to maintain this attitude when you play again, and you will be fouled hard at the first sight."

In fact, the number of fouls is an important reference data for a player's defensive enthusiasm and defensive success rate, especially for centers and point guards. These two positions are most likely to be misplaced by opponents.

There are many fouls and the low defensive success rate is not terrible. It is really bad if it is passed or squeezed out of position easily without any action. If this kind of person has average offensive ability, it is still good to sit on the court.

Jackson attaches great importance to defense. He gave rookie Mark Madsen the opportunity to play. The other three are Harper, Leder, and Grant.

Tang Shuai arranged for Coral to have one big belt and four small ones, not only able to fight position pick-and-roll, but also quickly counterattack. The Rockets led the backup point guard Mucci Norris to a wave of 8-0 to overtake the score.

Only played two minutes and Harper fouled twice and was replaced by Fox. He was not good at defending a small guard like Norris. Jackson didn't immediately replace Guo Xu, let Bryant go to the main defense Norris, the inside adjustment, Horry replaced Madsen.

In order to create a misplaced opportunity, Kobe Bryant has a height advantage regardless of singles Norris or Mobley. Mobley defends Kobe and passes the ball to Leder, so that he is also misplaced in singles.

Kobe, Leder started scoring, Fox also assisted Horry to make a three-pointer, the Lakers returned a wave of 7-0, and then overtake the score.

Then, Guo Xu and O'Neal played together, Bryant continued to play, the other two were Horry and Fox, the Lakers sent the strongest attack lineup.

Jackson no longer arranged a triangle offense to give O'Neal a low shot, but let O'Neill Midway and Guo Xu play a pick-and-roll. Fox weakly attracted the defense from outside the three-point line, and Horry gave Kobe no ball screen on the right side, evacuating the inside and letting Kobe Hit the rim, or catch a single from low back.

The midfielder plays a pick-and-roll, and the Rockets center must switch to a defender. Otherwise, Guo Xu can easily get a peripheral phone conference. Olajuwon defends and Guo Xu breaks the ball.

Olajuwon's physical strength has dropped so badly that he can't keep up with the defender. Guo Xu can forcibly pass the speed with only one change of direction. Taylor is more out of position against Horry, and the Rockets do not have enough protection for the restricted area.

Guo Xu made two consecutive layups and scored one goal to O'Neill's two-handed dunk.

The Rockets replaced 201CM's inside Thomas to strengthen the defense against the pick-and-roll. He wanted to use the "cut shark tactics" to limit O'Neill's air cut. At this time, Guo Xu attracted the defense and started to divide the ball after the pick-and-roll.

Kobe Bryant passed the ball-free catch to catch the ball and entered the basketball, and then caught Mobley two in the low post and scored 6 points. Tang Shuai, who played 19-4 in a wave of the Lakers, was forced to call two timeouts and still could not reverse the disadvantage.

The game continued. Guo Xu got rid of Francis with an O'Neal pick-and-roll. He made a three-point shot on the left; the Rockets replaced veteran Walter Williams and could not defend Kobe in the post. He was beaten by two backs.

In the NBA, almost every star has his own signature technology, such as Garnett's Jagged Big Jump Shot, Marion's Throwing Hot Yam Shot, Harden's Porcelain Shot, and Stackhouse's Squat Free Throw, Kidd free throws a kiss at the basket, then misses and so on ...

Bryant's signature technology is his back singles, picturesque back. In Guo Xu's previous life, his skill was the strongest among NBA guards, and it became a signature in 2002.

At this time, Kobe is also good at back attack. People who are taller than him are not as agile as he is, and he can often break through in one turn. The person who is shorter and faster than him does not have his height and bouncing power. He dribbles his back and swings left and right, and he can turn around and jump back in a free choice of direction.

The most terrifying thing about Kobe is not his technical moves, but his range. Unlike traditional low-level offense, he can shoot anywhere within the three-point line without dead ends. Defensive Kobe, at any moment, any detail, the opponent can not be taken lightly.

This season's Kobe is no longer completely restricted by the single defense, he can easily score 30 points without being included.

The Rockets couldn't resist, and there was a problem on the offensive end. The defender couldn't break through. Players could only pass back and forth from the periphery, and finally shot in the middle and long distances with interference.

"Dream" Olajuwon played soy sauce on the offensive end, and became a colander on the defensive end. He was old after all, and it was very difficult to meet the fast defender and the defense against O'Neal was not enough. Rocket boss Alexander saw that Olajuwon was no longer dominant, and last year he began to consider sending it away, unwilling to pay a higher salary.

In the end, the Lakers won 109 to 95.

Guo Xu played 31 minutes, 7 of 13 shots, 4 of 8 3-pointers, 18 points, 5 assists and 2 steals, outstanding performance.

O'Neal was in a sluggish state, five fouls, 7 of 15 shots, 2 of 5 free throws, 16 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 6 blocks.

Kobe Bryant made 12 of 29 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, 12 of 15 free throws, scored 37 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals.

Six of the Rockets scored in double figures, Norris scored the most points with only 15 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Francis dumb, played 40 minutes, made 3 of 11 shots, 4 of 3 3-pointers, 5 of free throws 4. Only 10 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. Poor shooting of the guard is a major disadvantage. Once the breakthrough is restricted, the performance of the boss will be discounted.

After the game, Jackson announced a holiday tomorrow to allow the players to recover their physical strength, and specifically told O’Neal not to go out and fool.

O'Neill repeatedly stated that he had no dominance in the inside in recent games, and Kobe took the opportunity to shoot frantically, giving him a little sense of crisis. He had to use action to prove who is the boss of the Lakers.

The Lakers ended their losing streak. The media didn't say much good news. At the press conference, a reporter pointed his finger at O'Neill.

O'Neal is not good news. It's news after several consecutive bad performances. Many people think that he is not in training and leads to poor condition, saying that he is fully capable of doing better.

O'Neill dismissed it. He interviewed many times and admitted that he did not like training. Guo Xu feels that Ao Fat is actually very smart. He made a lot of eyeballs in this way, allowing the fans to make him imagine more powerful. He is invincible without hard work.

This is not the case. It is simply impossible for Austrian fat to train hard, and the coaching staff did not force him to practice hard, which would shorten his career. He knows what he should practice, and he still works **** the skills he should practice.

For example, O'Neill's low turn, small hook and other techniques are outstanding in the center. It is said that his inside footsteps and skills were practiced on the skateboard that year, which is why other heavyweight insiders cannot rule the restricted area.

Guo Xu received unanimous praise in an interview. The topic still revolves around his height and order. Because of his low starting point, it is worth commending as long as he scores in double figures.
