Chapter 486 [Brushing data is a knowledge]

On the evening of the 8th, the Staples Center was full.

When the players came out, the fans gave a warm applause.Even if the opponent is very weak and Yao Ming will definitely not play before the game, the fans are still willing to watch the game, because the home team will definitely score a high score and have a chance to win, and Kobe is more likely to score a high score.

Super data is always what attracts fans the most.

Yesterday, Los Angeles Sports predicted that Kobe Bryant is expected to break out in this game. Yao Ming does not fight, he can get more shots.When Yao Ming was there, the two cooperated a lot, and the ball would not be concentrated on one person.

On the sidelines, there were fans supporting with the sign "Kobe 70 points", expressing their good wishes.Jordan's career high of 69 points in a single game, as long as Kobe Bryant can score 70 points, is a transcendence to Jordan.

Kobe's wife Vanessa also attended the game to support her husband.The Eagle County incident has passed, the relationship between the two is as good as ever, and Kobe is in a good mood.

Because the opponent is weak, this is not live in the United States, only local channels and China CCTV5 live broadcast.

When introducing the lineup, Zhang Lili said: "Today Yao Ming can't play due to injury. It's a pity that there is Mutombo in the Rockets. When he was with the Knicks, Larry Brown often said that he hoped Yao Ming could become Mutombo. Few fans left messages online, wanting to see them face off."

Yu Jia smiled and said: "I think the current Yao Ming is definitely not something Mutombo can defend. Yao Ming is expected to become the No. [-] center in the NBA, and Mutombo can only be a substitute for Cato."

Zhang Lili joked: "I hope the Lakers won't win so easily today. Yang Rui said in the Raptors that Carter's biggest enemy is garbage time. Now the Lakers and Kobe's biggest enemy are also garbage time. If you play less time, It's hard for him to put up big numbers."

During the warm-up, both players were coaching three-pointers.Many experts have analyzed that the only magic weapon to win the Lakers is the three-pointer, because the Lakers generally use 122 zone defense, and Yao Ming guards the penalty area, and can't hit the basket at all.Even without Yao Ming today, the Lakers' internal strength is obviously better than that of the Rockets.

Lakers starting five: Damon Jones, Hoiberg, Kobe, Odom, Rashid.

Rockets five: Mike Bibby, Mobley, Jaylen - Rose, Chris - Humphries, Kevin - Cato.

Yang Rui's decision to let Kobe Bryant brush the data is related to the Rockets' staffing.They dug up former Pacers star Jaylen Rose in the summer, and in Yang Rui's previous life, Kobe Bryant scored 81 points against the Raptors, and Rose was the main defender.

In that game, Rose was like adding a BUFF to Kobe, and the basket was as wide as the ocean.

Rose's data is not bad now, and it is very confusing. The Rockets thought that trading him in the summer would make the team very competitive in the new season.In fact, Ross is strong in attack and weak in defense, and he is not qualified to be the second leader.

Humphries was a rookie selected by the Rockets in the first round in 2004. He has strong physical fitness and poor defense.

The Rockets were forced to let him start. The weakest position on the team was No. 4. Eddie Griffin, the "American Tony Leung", who had high hopes before, couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the game because of his alcoholism. The Rockets could only endure the pain. its cut.

Then the Nets and Griffin signed a free contract, thinking they would get a bargain, but the guy spent a year in a sobriety center.

And Humphries, in Yang Rui's previous life, this person left a deep impression on the fans.

He is 206cm tall, weighs 107kg, and averaged 11 points and 12 rebounds per game in his peak 13.8-11 season.That season, although he failed to make the All-Star Game, he was selected for the top five balls many times, and was dunked by a guy named Blake Griffin from the Clippers several times.

And he is most famous for his marriage to Kim Kardashian, becoming the first NBA player to be prevented from being killed by a member of the Kardashian family.

In short, the overall defense of the Rockets is very bad. The Raptors in Yang Rui's previous life were even worse, and the Raptors at least have Bosh.

After the start of the game, the Rockets' performance was eye-catching.

Bibby scored in consecutive singles from Jones in the field, Mobley also got rid of Hoiberg and scored two three-pointers, and also made a layup from the bottom line, stole Jones' pass, and performed a single fast-break dunk.

Jones became an undercover agent for the Rockets today, sleepwalking on the court at the start. "White Devil" Bibby's type of guard has always been his pain, and when he played the Mavericks, he was also very bad at defending Terry.

As a point guard, Bibby's ability to assist is not very strong. The advantage is that he has excellent change of direction and breakthrough speed. He can quickly tear the opponent's defense line, and then make emergency stop and mid-range shots, pick-and-roll mid-range shots, and occasionally make a three-pointer.

Jones has a slow lateral movement, poor bounce, and is always half a beat slower to block and interfere with jumpers.

Hoiberg and Jones have very similar styles. They both have three-point accuracy and poor defense. As a veteran, he is slower to traverse than Jones, and he is even more vulnerable to Mobley, who can shoot and shoot.

After five minutes of play, the Lakers trailed 5-14.

In this case, the ordinary coach also called for a timeout to make a substitution, but Yang Rui watched the ball quietly on the sidelines, without any expression.

Zhang Lili was a little confused. "Why didn't Yang Rui call a timeout? Only Kobe Bryant scored 9 points in the Lakers. The two insiders were active on the periphery today, and they didn't cut empty. It's not like the style of the Lakers to be beaten by the underdogs."

Yu Jia smiled and said: "Today's game just shows the importance of Yao Ming. If he is not there, the Lakers will not have an overwhelming advantage inside. Cato and Humphries defended the penalty area, controlled the rebounds in the backcourt, and the frontcourt. The rebounding is also very aggressive."

In fact, Yang Rui did not arrange for Odom and Rasheed to attack. The two were only responsible for helping Kobe score. Even if they were covering, they only screened and not rolled.

The Lakers sacrifice offense inside and make cameo appearances in the blue-collar line, while the Rockets inside line is a blue-collar team. It looks better than the Lakers’ two space-oriented inside lines by doing what they are good at, defending and rebounding.

Yang Rui didn't call a timeout, believing that Kobe could find his touch and let him continue to shoot because the shooting rate was not high at the beginning.If you don't call a timeout, Kobe won't think too much, knowing that he will do what he says.

Don't use the suspect, but don't use it.

Yang Rui knows the characteristics of the Rockets on the outside. Knowing that Jones and Hoiberg are partners, it is difficult for the Lakers to defend against the Rockets' offense on the outside. He just deliberately found two three-pointers with poor defense to partner with Kobe. Good to open up the space and help Kobe score.

If Iguodala is on hand, the Rockets can't score easily.On Mo Williams, the defense is also better than Jones.But that's not in the Lakers' interests, and it's harder to reach the goals set before the game.

Brushing data is a skill. If the Lakers lead by a big score at halftime, like the one against the Heat, many people will question the game and sympathize with the weak.If the score is tight, it makes sense for the star to play more minutes.

Yang Rui didn't call a timeout, neither did Carlisle, but the Rockets were ahead.

In the second half, Bryant found the feeling of shooting, relying on Lamar Odom to cover and get rid of Rose, and made three consecutive jumpers in one step.

Cato is an excellent meat shield center. After signing a big contract with the Rockets, although he did not produce luxurious data, he has always been the starter, and his ability to defend the penalty area has been affirmed.Jason Collins, who was originally drafted by the Rockets, has now been sent to the Hornets because of Cato.

However, Cato's weaknesses are also obvious. He is heavy, and his movement speed is not fast enough. The switching guard is easy to be passed, and the defensive guard's emergency stop jumper is also half a beat slower.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers fell behind 31 to 37, and Kobe scored 19 points and 2 assists.
