Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left

Chapter 227: Zone defense 1 out, Zuoli is controlled

Zuo Li played very proactively at the beginning, and all three dunks in a row were wonderful. According to Barkley, they all have the potential to be among the top five **** today.

But the lead is still the Lakers, because Kobe also arranged all the points in the opening, and used a dry pull from the top of the arc to overtake the score.

Staples resounds MVP's cry~

Nicholson on the sidelines stood up and shouted in the direction of the left standing: "See no, you can't beat us, because we have Kobe!"

Kobe is really good. Don't look at the decline in both the average points per game and the highest points in a single game in the past two seasons, but that's because Kobe gave up some of the ball in pursuit of the championship, and he no longer pursued high scores. , but put team wins first.

In this era, no one will question Kobe's scoring ability. At most, he will question the scoring efficiency. He has 81 points in a single game, 62 points in three quarters, 50+ in 4 consecutive games, 40+ in 9 consecutive games... Too many scoring records were broken by Kobe.

So as long as he thinks about it, and when the touch explodes, he's still the guy who can do anything on offense.

And tonight, happens to be when Kobe is in this state!

A three-pointer was not enough. In the next round, Kobe immediately took Fisher's pass and scored another. Larry Hughes reluctantly put his hands on his hips. basket.

Fortunately, Zuo Li’s offensive end took advantage of the Lakers’ defense not fully in place and forced a breakthrough to score a slap. By the way, he also made a foul by the Arizala who helped defend, and the free throw line also scored the ball very well, and the Knicks bitten tightly. score.

However, Kobe once again completed the singles, he didn't even call the pick-and-roll, singles Larry Hughes, although Hughes stared at Kobe's actions, he was still left behind by Kobe's reverse breakthrough after a sudden stop.

And just after Randolph, who was on defense, was in position, Bryant was another strong sudden.

Kobe Bryant's breakthrough is very powerful. He doesn't seem to be as fast as Rose or Wade. The rhythm is not as good as Parker. Ginobili is famous, but he records quickly. He has a fast approach and a good sense of rhythm. He can use both left and right hands. He has a variety of offensive methods and changes.

Such a breakthrough can be called the essence of human breakthroughs, so the two Knicks were played, Zuoli's block also fell into the air, and a throw shot scored the ball again!

"Nice job! Kobe, just do it!"

The fans at the scene fell into a climax again. This was a wonderful one-on-three attack, and it was one of the most popular scoring methods for fans.

At the same time, the Lakers fans did not forget to continue to attack Zuo Li. After all, Zuo Li, who was close to 4 blocks in this court, also failed to cover it.

But Zuo Li was not discouraged. It was normal that he couldn't guard against a superstar like Kobe. Howard's self-confidence in making up defenses was still vivid in his mind. Zuo Li was very confident in himself, but he was not arrogant enough to think that he could Defend every opponent's attack.

All he has to do is hit the ball in response!

On the offensive end, Knicks Dragic dribbled the ball, left the pick-and-roll, left the ball and completed the throw over Bynum's head.

Less than half a quarter, Zuoli also scored in double figures.

However, Kobe Bryant immediately broke through the mid-range again, and Zuo Li also fought back **** the inside...

At the end of the first quarter, Barkley was surprised that he could not speak, because in this quarter, Kobe made 8 of 10 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, and 5 free throws to score 23 points.

Zuo Li didn't give in too much. He made 10 of 12 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, and scored 22 points. He also had 5 rebounds, including 2 offensive rebounds.

The Lakers and Knicks also tied 30-33 in the first quarter, with the Lakers leading by only three points.

It can be said that this section is completely Zuo Li and Kobe Bryant's personal show, the two fully demonstrated their offensive skills and scoring ability.

ESPN's commentary said excitedly: "This is the NBA's current offensive ceiling on the outside and inside."

And Smith also said: "Being able to compete with Kobe Biao for a whole quarter without losing the wind, Zuoli is proud enough."

All in all, it was a game that surprised, satisfied and excited the whole world.

But in fact there is still a difference, that is, Kobe's scoring method is easier than Zuoli.

Zuoli's scores come from close-to-hand combat with Bynum, while Kobe Bryant's 60% comes from shooting.

So don't look at the two scoring only one point apart, but Zuo Li is more tired than Kobe.

And although the two played a full quarter, Kobe Bryant returned to the court 2 minutes earlier than Zuoli in the second quarter.

In these two minutes, the Lakers took the opportunity to play a wave of 6-0. Ke Liu encountered Kobe's strong defense. It was difficult to show his sharp scores in the past, and David Lee was also beaten by the twin towers of Lamar Odom and Gasol. Only 1 goal per shot.

When Zuoli came back, the Knicks were already 11 points behind.

This is not beyond Zuo Li's expectations. The Knicks' bench is still a grade worse than the Lakers' bench. For example, when Ewing replaced himself, he was bullied by Gasol and Odom.

But Zuo Li is still confident, he and Randolph are the Knicks' support.

However, when Zuo Li came on the court, the Zen master smiled slightly. In the next round, when Zuo Li held the ball at the top of the arc, he was surprised to find that the Lakers changed their defense!

2-3 zone defense!

It is not used much in NBA zone defense, mainly because of the existence of three seconds of defense, which will lead to flaws, but it is not impossible to use.

Zen master is a master of zone defense. He let Gasol and Odoff, two people with better mobility, avoid the three-second dilemma in the interior.

"Wow, the Lakers are on defense! What is Zuo Li going to do?!" Barkley's eyes widened.

Zuo Li was also taken aback, but he couldn't stand out easily, so he could only move the ball. Fortunately, Chandler was powerful and hit a three-pointer to heal the Knicks.

But this shot didn't quench his thirst~www.readwn.com~ After that, Zuo Li really fell into a quagmire, and the forceful burst was ineffective. The defense of the zone was to break through, and as long as the Lakers defended carefully, their ability was definitely in the top three in the league.

Zuoli is the core of their offense. Once Zuoli is restricted, the Knicks will not be able to drive at all like the engine has been removed.

In this quarter, Zuoli was troubled by defense and only scored 8 points, while Kobe scored 14 points. The Lakers scored a 25-14 point difference in a single quarter, leading by 14 points at halftime!

Not only did the Lakers take the initiative, but Kobe also continued to expand his lead with 37-30 in this fierce battle.

"It can only be said that Kobe is still the same Kobe." Smith sighed in the live broadcast room: "Zuo Li has done a very good job, but it can only be said that Kobe still has a distance to go."

"It can only be said that Phil Jackson's tactics were very successful. The zone defense made Zuo Li and the Knicks not expect that Zuo Li's best thrusts didn't work and had to go to the inside to fight meleely, and the efficiency naturally dropped." Barkley complained. : "This may be the gap between the Knicks and the Lakers now. D'Antoni has to play a role in the second half."
