The three-point line is really too close

Chapter 228 Confront Kobe! "King sees king"!
The bloodthirsty aura of the Black Mamba will undoubtedly deter opponents and make them feel a pressure invisibly.

And it is Zhang Bolong and Harrington who can perform stably under pressure.

The pick-and-roll of the two has become a famous landscape in the league.

Different from Nash and Stoudemire's dunks after the pick-and-roll, Deron and Boozer's ecstasy mid-range shots after the pick-and-roll,
The combination of Zhang Bolong and Harrington, which can let you directly withdraw from the three-point line with one pick and one roll, basically no opponent can restrict it well.

In order to improve his pick-and-roll efficiency, Harrington also specially trained his strength and weight to make this move more threatening.

In the first quarter, the two teamed up to score 14 points, helping the Warriors withstand Kobe's impact without digging a big hole at the beginning.

After the start of the second quarter, Kobe restrained his offensive edge and tried to hand the ball to Davis to handle.

Although he often chooses to rely on his own ability to solve problems, no one knows better than the Black Mamba in the past two years that a one-man team cannot go far.

These few games were his explosion and his vent.

He can score 50 points, 60 points, but it is difficult for him to do more, and the team cannot win easily.

When Zhang Bolong appeared in front of him, he realized that he should have changed.

Kobe didn't say much to encourage his teammates, but told his teammates with practical actions, "I'm going to pass the ball to you, you better not let me down."

Throughout the second quarter, Bryant only shot 4 times.

Because Odom and Davis played very well in this section.

Needless to say, Ao Daidai's strength, facing Harrington's defense, he frequently hit the basket on the left side and succeeded, showing the demeanor of a left-handed magician
Facing Ellis and Azubuike, Davis regained his former confidence as the team leader.

Not only did he break through resolutely, but he was also very courageous in his shots from the outside. He even caused Azu's thug foul after a three-pointer hit, which instantly plunged Staples into a sea of ​​jubilation.

However, instead of opening the score, the Lakers were caught up by the Warriors.

Monta Ellis!
This once small character is no longer Wuxia Amon.

The honing of 82 games and the unremitting exercise in daily life have raised his overall rating to [-] points, tied for third place on the team with Jackson.

He's been surprisingly efficient on the pick-and-roll, often clearing Smush Parker after a drive to a taillight.

In addition to Ellis, Jackson, who played poorly on the field, also recovered in time and lit up the captain's saber.

A three-pointer from the outside, a mid-range shot with an emergency stop, and the roaring Jackson poured out all the depression accumulated in the previous game.

Within one quarter, he scored 5 points on 4 of 9 shots. Ellis also played with Smush Parker and Sasha, and scored 10 points in a single quarter.
Relying on the excellent performance of these two, the Warriors led at 36:30 in the second quarter, narrowing the point difference to 4 points.

And Kobe, who people pay attention to, scored 21 points in the half, 29 points away from his "basic skills".

After the start of the second half, Kobe's touch seemed to cool down a bit.

He beat Zhang Bolong three times in a row, but failed to hit.

In turn, the Warriors seized this opportunity and began to counterattack under the leadership of Zhang Bolong.

Standing near the familiar midfielder, Zhang Bolong fired a three-point shot from a distance. Even if Davis made a blocking action, he could only watch the basketball fly into the basket miraculously.

Zhang Bolong, who hit the ball, also bent down and kissed the logo on the floor.

"Hey, Xiaolong still has a lot of affection for the Lakers." Director Wei Ping said with emotion.

"After all, it was the team that brought Xiaolong to the NBA, his first home team. It was also the training of the Lakers that allowed the entire league to see the light of Xiaolong." Yang Jiandao.

"I don't know how old Buzz and Kupchak feel when they see such a dazzling little dragon?"

As soon as Yang Yi finished speaking, the broadcast camera tacitly cut to the box above the arena.

There, Dr. Buss had a gratified smile on his face, as if he was happy for Zhang Bolong's success.

However, the involuntary twitching from the corner of his eyes proved that his heart was not so peaceful.

In the third quarter, the pick-and-rolls of Zhang Bolong and Harrington continued to work, and the Lakers seemed helpless with their cooperation.

And Ellis' continued fiery performance also made the Lakers unable to find players who could match up.

This is another important issue facing the entire team besides the compatibility of Davis and Kobe for the Lakers.

Their defense lacks integrity, and the inside and outside lines are often disconnected.

At the end of the third quarter, Kobe made only 10 of 3 shots in a single quarter, but hit two three-pointers and still scored 10 points, raising his overall score to 31 points.

But the Warriors continued to advance triumphantly. At 27:20 in a single quarter, they entered the fourth quarter with a 3-point lead.

In the early part of the fourth quarter, it was supposed to be the time for the two sides to play off the bench.

But with an unsolvable "pseudo-substitute" like Ellis, the Lakers didn't dare to remove Davis at all, and just let Kobe sit on the bench to rest for a while.

In this game, Kobe's consumption was greater than in previous games.

No matter how strong the defender is, he is not like Zhang Bolong, who relies entirely on defending against Kobe to improve his defense.

He is familiar with all of Kobe's offensive habits, as well as most of the fake moves, which makes Kobe very uncomfortable to play, and rarely needs to recover his strength on the bench.

The Warriors have no such troubles.

At the beginning of the last quarter, Ellis threw a three-pointer against Davis, which also stunned the former big brother.

"Have you all been infected by him?" Davis couldn't help asking, looking at Ellis who was already used to it.

"Dragon is my benchmark, but this is the result of my special training."

If only Davis is present at this time, the suspense of the game may not last long.

But the Lakers' inside advantage still helped them catch up with the score.

Facing the inside combination of Foyle and Turiaf, "Little Shark" could not say that he could get anything he wanted, but he also played vigorously and completed a double-double in a short while.

With 7 minutes and 35 seconds left in the fourth quarter, after the Lakers' timeout, Zhang Bolong and Kobe appeared on the court at the same time.

The game has also reached a critical moment when the king sees the king.

Kobe first made a three-pointer, and then made a strong shot from the baseline, scoring 5 points in a row.

In these two goals, Zhang Bolong defended every goal to the limit, but Kobe could score!
After a wave of 5:0, the Lakers also tied the score.

But Zhang Bolong also began to take over the game.

A pick-and-roll, he held the ball into the paint, dribbled the ball to the right, then turned around smoothly, and hit the rebound with a high layup with his left hand.

Leaving a string of real and illusory shadows, Odom and Kwame Brown looked at each other.

In the next round, facing Kobe's marking, he directly pulled up a super long three-pointer.

Basketball is like a blockbuster, hitting the heart of every Lakers fan hard.
