I'm really good at shooting.

Chapter 664 Thanks Old Bath!
There was a small detail before going on the court. Kobe pulled Howard and said something, and Howard was a little absent-minded.

This is a small detail.

In history, Howard and Kobe also teamed up together, but the two finally broke up in disagreement.

The root cause of this is that the personality is not compatible.

Howard has been treated as a darling since he entered the league, and he was traded to a big city like Los Angeles, and the fish entered the big pond, and he was happy.

But Kobe's expectations for Howard are obviously not that. He treats Howard as a man, demands Howard with his own requirements, and hopes that Howard will snatch the position of master from himself.

Compared with right and wrong, this is the most fundamental reason for the conflict between the two.

But that's a digression. At this time, Howard hadn't been in the Clippers for long. Although he didn't like to hear Kobe's words, at most he ignored them.

Jumping the ball on both sides, Howard jumped high and turned the ball back to the Clippers' half court, and the Clippers took the lead.

Sun Yue controlled the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. After giving the ball to Gasol, he went to the bottom corner.

Sun Yue's job is similar to that of Knight, the difference is that he already has a stable three-point range and is very functional.

Gasol held the ball, Howard sank to the inside, and Kobe used Artest's pick-and-roll on the outside to run without the ball.

The old Dunleavy's tactical system is different from that of Phil Jackson.

Although this offensive method is not as advanced as the triangle tactics, it is very layered from the inside to the outside.

After Bynum was replaced by Howard, this sense of hierarchy became more obvious.

The Lakers' defensive focus was on Kobe's side. Gasol held the ball, turned around and directly broke through Millsap, attracted the attention of Hibbert's defense and threw the ball into the air, and Howard flew directly over there.

"Oh!"

With a signature two-handed power alley-oop, Howard smashed the ball hard into the rim.

There was a burst of cheers from the Clippers fans at the scene.

The way the Clippers started tonight was strong enough!
However, it can also be seen from this that the Lakers have problems. Millsap and Hibbert are short and slow. This combination is a big problem on the defensive end.

The Clippers took the lead, and the Lakers Knight gave the ball to Sun Hao after halftime.

Sun Hao didn't just play the ball directly like in the previous games, but organized a move and played a tactic for Carter.

Before losing to the Bulls, Sun Hao knew that it would be very difficult to rely on his personal ability to play against this kind of championship team. If Carter comes back, he must first mobilize Carter's state.

At the very least, try to see how Carter's condition is after he recovers from injury.

Carter came out to catch the ball under the cover of Millsap, feinted past Gasol and broke through to the basket.

A series of technical moves were completed in one go, from which it can be seen that his ankle injury has little effect on him.

Carter flew to the layup after throwing off Gasol.

But at the moment of his shot, Howard, who was still on the left side of the basket a second ago, suddenly rubbed to the right side.

"Oh!"

Howard slapped Carter's shot to the backboard.

Nail board big hat!

And Howard grabbed the rebound even after taking off!

One offense and one defense, Howard showed his overflowing talents to the fullest.

In fact, the decline of Howard's strength has a lot to do with his back injury. He was greatly affected by Haywood's elbow at the beginning, but it has not yet exploded. The current "Warcraft" is still the best besides Yao Ming. center.

Howard gave the ball to Kobe, and Kobe advanced upcourt.

This time Kobe held the ball, Howard took the initiative to bring up Kobe as a pick-and-roll in the high post.

This is the biggest difference between Howard and the same period in history.

In history, Howard has a unique position in the Magic and basically does not give pick-and-rolls to others, but now because he has been teammates with Arenas for a long time, he has played a lot of pick-and-roll tactics.

So Howard didn't have any psychological burden to give Kobe a pick-and-roll, but was very happy.

It's just that his pick-and-roll quick release is faster, and he basically goes to the basket in one go.

This is also easy to understand. The purpose of his pick-and-roll is not to create scoring opportunities for his teammates, but to score by himself.

Fortunately, this is not the first game of the season for the Clippers. Kobe also knows his habits, so he took a step up and shot in an instant in the pick-and-roll.

Hibbert's slow speed gave Kobe a chance, and Kobe had a good chance when he shot the ball.

"Shh!"

Kobe's opening touch was very good, and his first shot was a hollow pocket.

4 is better than 0!

The Clippers got off to a perfect start.

The cheers of the Clippers fans grew louder.

Although the Lakers won in terms of the number of fans, but in terms of strength, the current Clippers team is obviously much stronger than the Lakers!
The strength on the court speaks for itself!
Knight held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt and continued to pass the ball to Sun Hao, and Sun Hao continued to play the ball to Carter.

Carter came out and shot a three-pointer this time.

The trajectory of the ball was good, but the ball ended up hitting the edge of the rim and bouncing out.

Carter's injury should not be a major problem, but his condition is similar to before the injury, not very good.

Fortunately, Hibbert got stuck at the basket at this time, used his height to take off the offensive rebound in the fight with Howard, and then gave the ball back to Sun Hao.

The Lakers got another 24 seconds to attack.

That is, this time, Sun Hao attacked with the ball.

Facing an opponent like the Clippers, if you fall behind too much at the beginning, you may not be able to turn around later.

It was Sun Yue who defended against Sun Hao.

Counting it, this is Sun Yue's fifth year in the NBA. He just signed a five-year 5 million contract with the Clippers last season, securing the Clippers' starting point guard position.

His defense and three-pointers continue to improve. Although he is still a functional player, he is a scarce commodity in the league.

Even in terms of the position of point guard alone, he may be one of the only few.

Sun Hao broke through with the ball and Sun Yue retreated while defending, always maintaining a defensive position against Sun Hao, and when Sun Hao turned around to shoot, he saw the timing and stretched out his hand to block...

Covered with air.

Sun Yue's defense is very smart, but if Sun Hao will be blocked, then he is not Sun Hao.

When Sun Yue blocked the shot, he had already actively confronted Sun Yue. After knocking Sun Yue away, he made a low-handed layup and sent the ball into the basket.

There are only two words to describe this goal: beautiful.

After the goal was scored, the Lakers fans who had been waiting for a long time burst into cheers.

At this moment, they are using their actions to declare that Staples Center is the home of Lakers fans!

The Clippers fans at the scene were somewhat embarrassed.

But they turned their expectant eyes to the Clippers players on the court.

They believe the home team will respond soon.

Kobe and Howard had a pick-and-roll again. This time the Lakers chose to go around the pick-and-roll, and Knight showed his enthusiasm and jumped in place.

Howard reached for the ball as he cut to the basket.

However, Kobe did not choose to give it. The reaction of the Lakers fans on the scene stimulated him a bit.

He saw that Knight did not shoot directly after coming up, but showed his steps, turned around and shot backwards.

This is his signature offensive method, and Knight quickly swayed away.

But what Kobe didn't expect was that Knight didn't give up after being shaken away, and his hard-fought second attack actually caused a little interference.

This is the real version of "If you work hard, the impossible will become possible".

Kobe dodged a small lever in the air and then shot.

Knight still couldn't stop Kobe's shot, and because he rushed too hard, he flashed past Kobe and finally fell to the ground.

"when!"

Although he looked embarrassed, his interference finally made Kobe's shot go out of the box!
Hibbert stuck Howard under the basket and protected the post to defend the rebound.

The Clippers' offense is finally broken!

After seeing it on the ground, Knight smiled and put his hands on the ground and got up with a smile on his face.

Looking at that expression, it felt like the fall was worth it.

At this moment, he suddenly felt someone touching the back of his head.

Originally, the first reaction to being touched was to resist, but this time he felt an inexplicable encouragement.

Turning his head, he saw that the person touching him was Sun Hao.

Looking at Sun Hao's expression, he admired his defensive attitude just now.

This encouraged him even more.

In fact, Knight's defense not only attracted the appreciation of Sun Hao, but also the enthusiasm of the Lakers on the court.

Defense is often not reflected in data, but defense can also bring a lot of things that cannot be seen in data.

On the offensive end, Sun Hao continued to attack Sun Yue.

Sun Yue defended the ball more carefully than before, but Sun Hao also used more delicate techniques.

After a confrontation, the feet landed and turned around and then turned to wipe the board.

Sun Yue obviously couldn't find Sun Hao's offensive point, and the final block was slow, so he could only watch Sun Hao send the ball into the basket again.

"Perfect basketball."

This scene also caused Breen in the commentary seat to express his emotion.

They also scored high scores, but compared with 6 years ago, Sun Hao scored more and more delicately.

Not only score, but also visual enjoyment.

4 flats.

Relying on a wave of personal output, Sun Hao helped the Lakers tie the score in one fell swoop.

Kobe continued to hold the ball in the frontcourt. This time he didn't call for the pick-and-roll, but directly grabbed Knight and went in.

Obviously, the ball was blocked just now, which made him a little embarrassed.

Knight's defense is still active, but Kobe changed his offensive method this time and directly let the basket attack.

Knight's body and bones obviously couldn't stop Kobe from breaking through.

The two got to the low position.

Kobe turned around and shot, using Knight's defensive enthusiasm to create a Knight and a thug foul.

Knight put his head in his hands after being called for a foul, looking a little frustrated.

At this time, Sun Hao went over and patted him on the shoulder again.

From the continuous actions, it can be seen that Sun Hao really has a different opinion of the team's point guard.

After Sun Hao finished shooting Knight, he looked at Kobe and smiled.

Kobe is much older than him, and his body has begun to decline. At this time, he will play more with experience.

This will make him less aggressive, but his scoring efficiency will be higher.

Kobe adjusted his breathing and made two free throws, and the Lakers once again overtook the score.

The Lakers have the ball, and Sun Hao continues to hold the ball.

At this time, the old Dunleavy yelled a few times, and the Clippers adjusted their defensive methods. This was preparing to attack Sun Hao.

This is also to be expected.

The strength of the rest of the Lakers is not very strong, and Carter's comeback is not good. The rest of the Lakers can give limited help.

The Lakers lost to the Bulls before, and they lost at this point.

Now Sun Hao has too many ways to score. He wants to score, but defense alone cannot restrain him.

What can really limit Sun Hao is that his teammates can't give enough help like playing the Bulls, and he is in a state of being double-teamed for a long time.

Sun Hao is very strong, but he is human after all, and the Bulls' defense is excellent, so his shooting percentage will naturally come down easily.

As the old coach, Dunleavy must have studied it before the game. This is also a tactical target.

Sun Hao also made a tactical choice after seeing it.

Millsap was called out to the three-point pick-and-roll.

Sun Hao's accumulated playing experience is not much less than Kobe's.

The point that the pick-and-roll from the three-point line is more difficult to defend than ordinary pick-and-rolls is that the pick-and-roll space is larger. Coupled with Sun Hao's three-point threat, it is not easy for the Clippers to deal with it.

And Sun Hao also played a showy operation. He didn't go to the side that Millsap blocked, but to the other side. After getting close to Gasol, he turned around with a low center of gravity and wiped it directly.

This directly caused a burst of whistles from the Lakers fans at the scene.

Sun Hao staged another "what's playing ball, writing poetry".

Originally, the Lakers were going to let Gasol and Sun Yue attack, but now it is too late.

Howard, as the Clippers' last barrier, jumped from the inside to the free throw line.

Sun Hao saw the last left breakthrough, took Howard to the left, and then passed the ball behind his left hand.

Howard was still very focused on the ball, and turned his head to the right when he saw Sun Hao's movement.

He came out of the defense, and Hibbert behind him must have been emptied.

So he kept a hand, ready to withdraw and go back to defend Hibbert.

It takes time for Sun Hao to pass the ball, but with his mobility, there is still time.

But the pass didn't happen, because at the moment he turned his head, Sun Hao had already made a false fax and sent the ball into the basket with a step-up layup with his left hand.

Howard, you've been tricked!

This time, not to mention the Lakers fans, even the Clippers fans couldn't help but exclaim.

Sun Hao's fight is really pleasing to the eye!

And it doesn't mean how difficult it is to play, but the feeling of perfecting every step on the court.

Even after reading it, a sentence popped up in their minds unconsciously: How to prevent this?
"We should thank Jerry for letting us see how good Sun is now."

At the commentary booth, Miller couldn't help feeling emotional.

This is not wrong.

If Sun Hao continues to stay in the Warriors, then with the Warriors' growing strength, fans will definitely see Sun Hao who paddles most of the time.

But thanks to the old Bass, Sun Hao was drawn to the current Lakers, and they saw Sun's terrifying strength now.

At this moment in Washington, Jordan, who was smoking a cigar, showed a smile with an upturned corner of his mouth.

People now think that Sun Hao's return to the Lakers is mainly due to the old Buss.

But paper cannot keep fire. After a few years, those people will find that he is the one who plays a decisive role in this matter.

The strongest state of pretentiousness is not invisible pretentiousness, but the pretense of future pretense in advance!
