Chapter 243 When the Lakers meet, they are extremely jealous
After fifteen consecutive victories, the Warriors ushered in a heavyweight opponent at home——
Los Angeles Lakers.
Since the Warriors eliminated the Lakers last season, Lakers fans and Kobe fans have regarded Zhou Yang as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh.
In basketball forums, Hu Mi and Comey are the most unfriendly towards Zhou Yang.
Of course, this is all fan behavior. Kobe and Zhou Yang have a very good relationship in private.
In the pre-match press conference, Kobe maintained his consistent style and uttered bold words that he would definitely defeat the Warriors and avenge the last playoffs!
In fact, it's no wonder that the Lakers fans are angry. The Lakers did have a chance of reelection.
According to strength, it is difficult for the Suns to beat the Lakers.
But if you lose, you lose. The playoffs are unpredictable, as long as they come back this year.
The current record of the Lakers is 11 wins and 4 losses, ranking fourth in the Western Conference.
The record is not ideal.
But the Lakers still have a lot of confidence up and down, they don't care about the regular season record anymore.
After all, Kobe is one year older and needs to save energy for the playoffs.
……
08:30 p.m., Golden State Oracle Arena.
The Warriors host the Los Angeles Lakers.
The starting lineup of the Lakers is Bryant, Gasol, Bynum, Mehta, Fisher.
The Warriors started with Zhou Yang, Curry, Chandler, Turkoglu and Barbosa.
With a jump ball in the middle circle, Chandler grabbed the first wave of the ball.
Although Kobe uttered wild words before the game, he knew very well that this Warriors team was stronger than last season.
Just talking about the center, the Warriors have been upgraded, from Andris to Chandler.
It shows that the Lakers' inside advantage is gone.
Warriors attack.
Curry dribbled the ball past half court, and Fisher single-handedly defended.
Turkoglu stepped forward to cover, Curry moved laterally, and Gasol immediately delayed, not giving Curry a chance to make a shot.
Curry moves laterally, splits, and throws the ball back to Turkoglu for him to slap and bully Fisher.
Turkoglu understood, and directly shot a three-pointer on Lao Yu's head!
It's a pity that Turkoglu didn't feel good and missed the shot, boom!
The basketball bounced to the left, and Chandler roared, carried Bynum on his shoulders, and grabbed the frontcourt board.
Chandler then passes the ball to Barbosa.
The insider of the Warriors who were bullied by everyone last season has finally turned around!
Barbossa made another three-pointer from the bottom corner, whoosh!
hit!
This is the rationality of the Warriors' lineup. Maggette was replaced by Barbosa, and Jackson was replaced by Turkoglu, both of whom could shoot three-pointers.
The space came out at once.
Kobe was shocked, knowing that today would be difficult.
Lakers offense.
Fisher passed the ball to Gasol, and Gasol faced Turkoglu and wanted to use his height advantage to play one.
Turkoglu's defensive ability is average, but after coming to the Warriors, he has improved a lot.
It's true that his footsteps are not fast, but he is still a bit skillful against an insider like Gasol.
Turkoglu pressed against Gasol's lower body hard, not giving him enough room to turn around, which made Gasol uncomfortable.
As a result, the shot missed a bit and Zhou Yang grabbed the rebound.
The Warriors launched a fast break.
Zhou Yang passed it to Curry, but Fisher made a tactical foul and hugged Curry.
The warriors had no choice but to fall into positional warfare.
Zhou Yang dribbled the ball at the top of the arc, and Kobe defended alone.
This is the first head-to-head confrontation between the core players of the two teams, which has a major impact on the direction of the game.
Especially for Zhou Yang, if he was defended by Kobe from the start, he would be passive in the game.
bass!
Zhou Yang started to the right, and Kobe immediately moved laterally to block.
At the same time, Kobe gave Zhou Yang a confrontational move, bang!
Zhou Yang's body swayed, but his dribble was still very steady.
Seeing that Kobe was moving very fast, Zhou Yang made another change of direction and rushed to the left.
But Bryant is still in hot pursuit.
The two are too familiar with each other, and they have studied almost every movement thoroughly. It is too difficult for Zhou Yang to pass Kobe with ordinary changes of direction.
Zhou Yang narrowed his eyes and decided to be ruthless.
He suddenly pulled the ball back and made a step back, and Kobe immediately posted it.
But Zhou Yang pushed the ball from the right!
Kobe thought Zhou Yang was going to break through from the right, so he hurried to block it.
But Zhou Yang's ball was out of his hands, and he ran over from the left.
Divided the ball?
On the football field, the technique of passing the ball is very practical and is used several times in each game.
Because the football field is relatively wide, the fast striker has plenty of space to catch up with the ball again and move on.
But the basketball court is relatively small, and it is too difficult to pass the ball, which can easily cause mistakes.
Kobe was startled, hesitated for a moment, and decided to chase the ball.
Just this hesitation, it's too late.
Zhou Yang ran over like a cheetah, scooped up the ball, and continued to control the ball.
What a bold man.
Kobe's defensive ability is already top-notch, but I really didn't expect Zhou Yang to use his field moves.
Looking at Zhou Yang's back, Kobe smiled wryly and shook his head.
When Zhou Yang reached the penalty area, Bynum rushed over to make up the defense. Zhou Yang slipped the ball from his armpit to Chandler.
The boxing champion ate a piece of cake beautifully, bang!
The Warriors took the lead to score two points!
Zhou Yang's breakthrough will definitely become today's top five goals.
Too dare to play!
Just when Zhou Yang returned to defense, Kobe said angrily from beside him: "You kid, are you playing tricks on me?"
Zhou Yang chuckled: "It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat!"
Kobe didn't speak, he was thinking about how to punish Zhou Yang with a ball.
The Lakers attack, Kobe holds the ball, and Zhou Yang single-handedly defends.
Zhou Yang clapped his hands hard twice, and shouted, "Come on! Hit me, don't be cowardly!"
Kobe's face was livid, and he dribbled the ball slowly.
Suddenly, Kobe dribbled the ball and broke through the middle. Zhou Yang stretched out his long arms and blocked it firmly.
Then Kobe turned around with a silky smoothness, leaving Zhou Yang behind.
This trick is very common, but when Kobe used it, it was extremely powerful because his steps were too fast.
When Kobe first entered the league, he was easy to learn. He learned from Jordan and Olajuwon, and learned a lot of nutrition from them.
Especially the footsteps, was repeatedly praised by Olajuwon, saying that Kobe learned quickly and was extremely talented.
Olajuwon's fantasy footsteps are really unique. It looks uncomplicated, but it is difficult to use them flexibly in the game.
Warcraft Howard participated in Olajuwon's study class and learned it several times, but after so many years, he still couldn't do it.
Zhou Yang was shocked, and it was too late to chase after him. Kobe took advantage of the trend and made a mid-drift shot. Whoa!
Get two points!
The boos of the Golden State home crowd came to an abrupt end.
Fans can't help admiring secretly, Kobe is Kobe, really amazing!
2:2 level!
Zhou Yang still had a smile on his face and nodded slightly. He admired Kobe's excellence very much.
