Chapter 276. The Benefits of Big Hands

It's a pity that continuous timeouts and teammates entering Kobe's time are of no use to Kobe, otherwise the Lakers would not have won almost all of the Lakers' five or six playoffs against the Spurs since the 21st century until Kobe ruptured his Achilles tendon.

Can't prevent it at all!
Kobe has no matter how he plays inside and outside, and once Kobe's offense goes smoothly, his defense becomes more aggressive, and his clothes will kill the opponent's posture.

半场打完, 科比拿到39分6助攻3篮板，带领湖人队以63比50客场领先老鹰队13分！
……

Home team locker room.

"SHXTSHXTSHXT!!!" Jason Terry cursed loudly.

After scoring 35 points in the first quarter, the Eagles only scored 15 points in the second quarter.

Kobe mobilized all his teammates, and his teammates just defended. Kobe swung alone, and he could throw the ball against two or even three people!
After scoring 13 points in the first quarter, they scored 26 points in the second quarter, which is simply terrifying!
Liu Mang, who defended Kobe, was naturally the one who suffered the most. Although he knew that Jason Terry was not scolding him, but was dissatisfied with the entire team being suppressed by Kobe alone, Liu Mang still felt very uncomfortable!

"Okay, stop complaining, let's take a look at our defensive problems." Coach Kruger entered the locker room, first of all to stabilize the emotions of the players, and strive to make the second half a new start.

The main emphasis is still on defense, and everything has to start with defense.

"Ace's defense, Jason's double-teaming, and Sharif's supplementary defense are all in place..." Coach Kruger felt a little headache when he saw the three double-teaming Kobe.

Liu Mang can't stand Kobe!The speed can keep up, but Kobe's strength is one of the best among shooting guards. This is the master who can resist James' back-up in his old age. This kind of explosive power is at the top level in the entire NBA history.

What a headache!

The best four players plus Newbell, Strickland, and Alan Henderson have all played. Only Liu Mang is slightly better against Kobe. At least he can keep up with the speed and give others time to double-team.

"Ace, you should focus on the offense..." Coach Kruger could only arrange it like this, focusing on offense, and lacking a big center for defense, it really can't work!If you squeeze Kobe to the bottom line and rush to the basket, this blacksmith can directly dunk the ball through the short inside line of the Eagles!

"Hmm..." Liu Mang responded casually.

Let Kobe score?
impossible!
But it's too difficult. The key is that Kobe paid attention to sharing the ball even if he went berserk when O'Neal was away. Fortunately, the rest of the Lakers are really strong today, otherwise the point difference would have been widened.

See what else is in the system.

More than 12700 star points, it's useless to draw skills.

I got a high-level alienation card before... O fat, what the hell are you hurting?

Originally, O'Neal was injured and Liu Mang was very happy that he could beat up the No. 8 player who didn't want to be named and became a bad vendor after retiring. But now he suddenly wants O'Neal to play.

The pretentious must-achieve card has already been used in order to win all the championships in the All-Star Weekend.

There is only one O'Neal star card left, and O'Neal is not yet at his peak.

"System, take a look at the attributes after O'Neal's star card bonus."

"Ding... ability value is 79, three-pointer is 88, mid-range shot is 83, layup is 80, speed is 94, strength is 80..."

Sure enough, there is a huge gap with Big O'Neal's star card bonus, and he doesn't have O'Neal's brutal talent skills.

However, it seems that Jr. O'Neal does not have O'Neal's situation that will lead to poor shooting and the ability value is too high to trigger the bench gangster bonus, and the mid-range shot has also been strengthened.

Strength 80.
"What is Kobe's strength?"

"Kobe Bryant's strength is 85."

Fortunately, it has not yet reached the level of strength of the little Malone in the three years of 05-07.

"Use the Jermaine O'Neal star card!"

……

The intermission ended and the players of both teams returned to the field.

The Eagles don't want a center forward, and directly send a cavalry combination, Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Raheem, Newbell, and Muhammad play.

On the Lakers side, Zen Master also made preparations, and easily guessed the Eagles' idea of ​​preparing for a last stand, and replaced the small lineup of Fisher, Lynch Hunter, Kobe, Fox, and Mark Madsen.

At the beginning of the second half, the Lakers had the ball.

Fisher advances to Bryant and opens the floor himself.

Kobe received the ball, ready to continue to eat Liu Mang alone to attract double-teams.

At first Kobe was afraid of Liu Mang's strength, but later he found out that the Spurs guy was really too weak!Liu Mang is probably at the strength level of the All-Star Game. He is normal for a point guard, good at best, and excellent for a rookie. He can keep up with the level of confrontation in the NBA.

But compared with those players with top physical fitness, it is much worse.

Liu Mang's strength after triggering the bench gangster was 74, which was a big difference from Kobe's 85.

Kobe rushed towards Liu Mang without any skill. Liu Mang's defensive anticipation was very good and his speed was fast. Kobe went straight to the body this time.

Kobe has already begun to judge the opponent's supplementary defense after the strong attack on Liu Mang, and began to think about whether he should pass the ball or shoot himself...

but!

There was no such refreshing feeling of easily squeezing the opponent away in the first half. After Kobe was going to knock Liu Mang away, the two stepped up and made the decision to make the next move, but when they just stepped forward, Liu Mang directly squeezed him back!
Kobe didn't expect that Liu Mang's strength would suddenly become stronger, and he was not prepared enough. His striding movements were squeezed and deformed. The key was his small hands...

An unnamed number 8 player who couldn't cover all of his beloved woman's two-handed ball staggered and slipped the ball!
Liu Mang caught Kobe by surprise!
If he had stepped forward from the beginning, Kobe would have felt Liu Mang's current strength, and would definitely push Liu Mang away with all his strength. However, Kobe knew Liu Mang's strength just like that in the first half, so he would inevitably be a little contemptuous, so Liu Mang gave him a slap in the face!
The next thing that shocked Kobe's young heart even more was that Liu Mang rushed forward and grabbed the ball with one hand, and he held it firmly.

Liu Mang was secretly excited, big hands are good!

Jason Terry, who was about to double-team, froze for a moment, did he defend?
Habitual counterattack!Jason Terry immediately turned around and rushed forward, Liu Mang threw the ball over, Jason Terry caught the ball and made a layup!
