I'm not a basketball bully

Chapter [-]

on The Sporting News after the first game.

Most are still reporting on the highlights of both sides of this game, and no one cares about the Lakers' loss in the last game.

Both fans and professional media people believe that Chris Paul will adjust in the next game, and they will win G2 in a devastating manner.

After all, the Lakers are not that kind of mediocre people. Others may be defeated by the Knicks, but it is impossible for the Lakers.

Last season, the Lakers and the Knicks reached the tiebreaker!

Not to mention that the Lakers this season also welcomed the addition of Paul.

But it will never let the Knicks get a 2-0 lead.

Not just this group of people, but many gambling companies around the world.

Before the second game even started, the odds of the score had been adjusted.

They all boldly predicted that the Lakers would bottom out in this game and they would be able to gain a lot of success.

The Lakers' odds to win have jumped.

Wait until the day of the g2 game.

The two sides presented their starting lineups, and everyone saw that the Lakers had indeed made adjustments.

From the last game, Artest and Kobe switched defenses from time to time to defend Su Ye.

This game directly turned into Artest's full defense of Kobe, completing point-to-point defense.

Let Kobe save energy and contribute more on the scoring end.

The first quarter of the game has just begun.

Kobe was confident and scored consecutively.

And Su Ye also noticed that something was wrong.

Artest, who had little effect on defending himself in the last game, actually caused him a lot of trouble this time.

It's different from the previous game.

When Artest was defending himself before, he would also pay attention to his surroundings.

Now that Artest is facing him, his eyes are completely locked on him.

Wherever you go, he follows you.

It's like a dog-skin plaster that sticks to your body and doesn't give you any chance to touch the ball.

It's obvious that Artest has adjusted to the game and started to increase the intensity of Su Ye.

The resident commentators couldn't help but sigh when they saw it.

"It feels like Su Ye is having a hard time today."

"Yes, Artest's defense is indeed a bit troublesome."

"I have to say that it was a wise choice for the Lakers to reinforce Artest this year."

In a gap, Su Ye relied on Randolph to pick and roll and got a chance to catch the ball in front of him.

As soon as he caught the ball with his front foot, he saw from the corner of his back foot that Artest squeezed past Randolph.

The large-tonnage Randolph almost stopped standing and was knocked down by this guy.

Although he got a moment of open space to take action, Su Ye was not in a hurry to take action.

Instead, he waited until Artest successfully matched up with him before acting as a triple threat near the free throw line.

He protected the ball with his back, leaning on Artest and looking at the opponent from the corner of his eye.

"Kobe taught you to defend me like this?"

Artest was slightly startled when he heard this.

Kobe did give him one-on-one coaching before the game, telling him how to defend Su Ye most effectively.

Artest also listened. In addition, he had previous experience of being Su Ye's opponent and teammate, so he knew Su Ye very well.

Today it was all displayed on Su Ye.

Facing Su Ye's question, he did not answer. He still defended seriously, using his long arms to limit Su Ye's attack direction.

After all, Brother Tai had been beaten by Su Ye more than once, and he knew that he should not provoke Su Ye, otherwise he would be embarrassed.

If it had been anyone else, Brother Tai would have picked up the wrench long ago.

And Su Ye had long been accustomed to Artai's indifference.

He made a fake move, preparing to deceive Artest.

But the other party didn't hesitate at all, and just stood there motionless.

If nothing else, just wait for Su Ye to move first.

When Su Ye saw that the fake move was useless, after turning around two or three times to test the opponent's left hand, Su Ye made a quick and explosive first step towards the opponent's weak left hand side.

Artest couldn't help being shocked.

What a quick first step!

He subconsciously jumped and moved sideways to block Su Ye's position, but was quickly pulled back by the opponent to collect the ball, almost staggering.

Fortunately, Artest, as a defensive player, has a tough ankle.

Relying on the inertia of his body, he forced the brakes and rushed towards Su Ye for a second defense.

However, Su Ye didn't tolerate him, so he just pulled him out on the spot.

Seeing that the distance was not enough, Artest also used his unique skill of covering his face to defend.

It relies on blocking the opponent's sight with one hand and greatly reducing the opponent's hit rate.

Everyone watched helplessly as Artest's big hand almost completely covered the front of Su Ye.

But Su Ye was still confident in taking action even though he had no vision.

The basketball passed through the basket accurately and fell steadily.

After seeing his opponent score, Artest put his hands on his hips and gasped for air.

Su Ye trotted away leisurely.

When the other party comes back to confront you again, you will also take the initiative to remind the other party.

"Now that Kobe has taught you how to guard against me."

"Then he should have told you that these defenses are of little use to me."

Hearing this, Artest's expression became serious involuntarily.

Just as Su Ye said.

During the one-on-one training that day, Artest tried to block Kobe's movements, but the effect was minimal.

At the end of training, Kobe reminded him intentionally.

Don't be discouraged if you don't catch it when the time comes.

Su Ye was the same as him, these tricks didn't have much effect.

However, Artest also knew that this was not to defend Su Ye, but to consume a lot of the opponent's physical strength.

Seeing that Artai didn't reply, Su Ye also laughed and cursed.

"This is Kobe."

"You can't teach it well in one day."

"Thinking of ways to trick me."

At the same time, on the other side, Kobe still performed very well, leading the team to score consecutively.

However, the performance comparison between the two sides seems a bit intriguing.

The first quarter is over.

The Knicks led by 3 points.

Just halfway through the second quarter, the Knicks led by 5 points.

Watching this familiar game, many home fans felt uneasy in their hearts.

The last game was also this one.

There was back and forth in the first half, but the Lakers collapsed in the second half.

Everyone is worried that this scenario will happen again.

Just when everyone was still thinking about how the Lakers would face off.

A strange picture appeared in front of everyone.

Teacher Zhang Weiping clenched his fists excitedly at this moment and shouted to the audience.

"It's coming! It's coming! It's finally here!"

"The head-to-head confrontation between Su Ye and Kobe!"

"This is what our fans want to see!"

On the court, after several pick-and-roll rotations, Kobe suddenly faced Su Ye.

Logically speaking, this matchup should continue with pick-and-roll changes until Kobe matches up with someone who is better at playing.

However, Kobe suddenly waved to his teammates around him, indicating that there was no need for pick-and-rolls.

The two people looked at each other, and a strong smell of gunpowder suddenly erupted on the field.

Kobe held the ball at the three-point line, facing Su Ye who was defending him.

Seeing that Kobe wanted to beat him alone, Su Ye also lowered his body's center of gravity.

It's too late, it's too soon.

Kobe shot towards Su Ye's right side with a lunge, then quickly and vigorously blasted the ball, collected the ball and pulled back.

Su Ye's ankle was strong enough, and his body did not lose position at all. He still blocked Kobe's offensive line with his long arms.

Kobe gritted his teeth and looked at Su Ye beside him from the corner of his eye, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

He dribbled the ball quickly twice in a row, and then used a large swing behind his back to get rid of Su Ye's defense. However, Su Ye made two large horizontal moves in a row, standing firmly on the floor with his feet, not giving his opponent any chance at all. Lose your own chance.

In an instant, within a few seconds, the two people had been fighting back and forth for no less than four or five rounds.

Almost everyone in the audience could clearly hear the sound of the two people's sneakers rubbing against the floor.

The basketball in Kobe's hands is very fast and the movements are very smooth.

Unfortunately, the person he was facing was Su Ye, and the two were equally powerful.

After several quick changes of position, Kobe put his back on the shoulder and finally grabbed an open position from Su Ye's side. Without thinking, Kobe directly turned his back.

This amount of recline makes Su Ye and Kobe two full lengths behind.

However, just when Kobe took action, Su Ye took off vertically.

When the basketball was still rising, a slap directly sent the basketball flying away.

The basketball fell to the feet of the referee on the sidelines, and there was an overwhelming exclamation from the entire audience.

"Oh my God! This hat."

"It's a bit difficult for Kobe. This can be risked."

"It feels like Kobe picked the wrong opponent. If it had been anyone else, the goal would have been scored."

The commentators on the sidelines were also excited.

Kobe stood there and stared at Su Ye for a while, then took the initiative to push Su Ye away and walked towards the sidelines.

Su Ye just smiled and spread his hands, not caring about this.

When the ball kicked off again, Kobe, with 2 seconds left to take action, used a pick-and-roll to get rid of Su Ye.

Against Ray Allen's defense, the baseline drifted directly to a three-pointer.

As soon as the basketball was released, Kobe fell to the bench.

The basketball in the distance fell steadily into the basket, and the audience screamed again.

"Oh my God!!"

"Kobe!!"

"This guy……"

“What an incredible goal!!”

When Su Ye saw Kobe scoring a goal in this way, he just smiled and said nothing.

However, this became the only confrontation between the two in this game.

For the Lakers, their situation is very bad.

Originally, they thought Paul would adjust to his condition in this game and then start performing in front of everyone.

Just as the audience expected.

Paul played!

He scored 16 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists in the first two quarters.

On average, he scored 8 points and provided 2 assists in one quarter.

But Deron, who was facing him, seemed to have taken strong medicine.

He also scored 16 points in the first two quarters and sent 2 more assists than Paul.

To say that Su Ye and Kobe are evenly matched over there, Paul and Deron are also about the same.

Even Deron is getting hotter and hotter.

At the end of the second quarter, he hit a three-pointer at the buzzer, achieving the feat of 19 points in the half.

The commentators couldn't help but laugh.

"Chris Paul finally made a difference."

"But it only played a little bit, not much."

Originally, the Lakers thought that this portrayal would be maintained in the first two quarters.

It wasn't until the beginning of the third quarter that they discovered that what the Knicks had prepared for them was far richer than they imagined.

At the time of substitution in the third quarter, Hayes was supposed to return.

However, the Knicks reduced Hayes' playing time in this game and let DeAndre Jordan on the bench replace Hayes as center.

As the Lakers' starting center, fans praised "Baby Shark" Bynum.

This guy relies on his size and interior defense to have a smooth time with the Lakers.

Facing Hayes in the first game, he also produced good data and excellent performance on the field.

But today, the little shark was a little stunned.

The biggest reason is that he can do his best against Hayes, who has a lower tonnage than him.

But when he met Jordan, who was the same size as him and even had better athletic ability than him, this guy was a little at a loss.

In terms of body, Jordan's height and wingspan are even better than him.

Jordan, who wants strength and gains weight, is not afraid of many in the league.

If you want to exercise, is there anyone who can compete with Jordan?

Bynum, who was able to dominate the inside at first, was frequently picked off by DeAndre Jordan after meeting him.

Relying on his excellent jumping ability, even if Jordan can't get the rebound, he can still pick the rebound off the court and give it to his outside teammates to fight for.

As he came and went, Bynum felt a little uncomfortable.

Now he can only look for opportunities on the offensive end.

But the Knicks brought on DeAndre Jordan just to defend Bynum.

Now, although Jordan's defensive ability is not at the top of the league, it will definitely be easy to restrict Bynum a little.

Bynum, who has high hopes from the fans, is the Lakers' second most stable player besides Kobe Bryant. However, he was a bit misfired during the game.

But what makes the Lakers most uncomfortable is another point.

The Knicks are a team that actually doesn't rely on centers for interior offense.

Their entire team relies on Su Ye and Randolph to score inside.

At present, Su Ye is restricted by Artest, and the Lakers are hoping to rely on Troy Murphy, a space power forward, to restrict Randolph, which is a bit wishful thinking.

"Zach!"

Deron, who was holding the ball, helped his teammates open up the space and shouted at the crowded inside.

Among the crowd, a dark fat man with a bald head squeezed out and waved to Delong with one hand.

Deron stuffed the ball directly without thinking.

After getting the ball, Randolph slammed the ball in front of his abdomen, lowered his body and looked at the situation inside.

This fat, round-headed black man has become the second nightmare for Lakers fans after Su Ye.

In the first half, fans have witnessed the magic of this fat black man countless times.

Troy Murphy, who was facing him, swallowed, and the ribs in his chest still ached.

Randolph glanced at Murphy and grinned, revealing a row of big white teeth.

As soon as he arched his body, he pushed towards the opponent.

There were originally four people under the basket, but Randolph relied on brute force alone to advance inside.

Facing Troy Murphy, who was defending him with his arms raised, Randolph kept turning and moving on the opponent.

After only three back and forths, Troy Murphy's steps became a little unsteady, and he was pushed back by the opponent's back.

Just when he was about to adjust his position, Randolph seized the opportunity and raised his hand directly to strengthen it.

A strong layup against someone else successfully attracted the referee's whistle.

What everyone can't accept the most is that Randolph, who only knows how to stand on the ground, has scored three goals in a row in this way.

Troy Murphy, who was facing him, already had four fouls including the previous foul.

When it comes to forcing layups, the main goal is to get free throws by deceiving fouls, followed by scoring goals.

When we get to Randolph, this guy wants them all.

Another successful three-pointer made the Lakers coaching staff go crazy.

They all saw it, and today the Knicks made it clear that they wanted Randolph to blast Troy Murphy point-to-point.

The bully is that this guy is weak in protecting the frame.

Troy Murphy, who had four fouls, was replaced and Odom came on.

Odom was also frightened when he saw Randolph.

No one in the entire league knows how painful this guy's elbow is.

It's okay to be a teammate, but to be an opponent may cause you to be bruised and bruised after just one game.

This scene lasted for the entire three quarters of the game.

The Knicks entered the fourth quarter with another 10-point advantage.

As soon as the fourth quarter started, the intensity of the two sides was no longer comparable.

When there is no pressure on the team to score, Su Ye's physical exertion is not very obvious.

On the contrary, Artest tried his best to guard Su Ye, and he began to run out of breath early in the fourth quarter.

The fans watched helplessly as the ten-point difference lasted for half a quarter.

In the last six minutes, the Lakers were like a broken dam, losing scores.

If it weren't for Kobe Bryant hitting several difficult three-pointers in the end, the Los Angeles Lakers would have lost by a full 20 points.

The final whistle blew.

The Lakers home fans fell silent.

At the beginning of the finals, playing at home, they lost to the Knicks in two consecutive games.

Especially losing both games by 15 points was a bit difficult for them to accept.

On the court, Kobe was a little confused after losing the game.

Hasn’t the team been strengthened this year?

How come we lost worse than last year!

The final statistics of the game appear.

Knicks vs. Lakers, 108:93.

full game.

Lakers here.

Kobe scored 32 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.

Paul had 18 points, 1 rebound and 7 assists.

Bynum had 17 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists.

There doesn't seem to be any big problem with the data.

But the problem is that the Knicks' data is even more terrifying.

Su Ye finished the game with 26 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists.

Deron had 21 points, 1 rebound and 10 assists.

Ray Allen had 23 points, 0 rebounds and 2 assists.

Randolph had 20 points, 14 rebounds and 2 assists.

When four players on the team scored more than 20 points, the four players scored 90 points together.

The rest of the team split the remaining 18 points equally.

Facing the Knicks, whose entire team exploded, the Lakers' results were simply not good enough.

Especially tonight, Randolph almost stole Su Ye's best player tonight.

After the game, the audience mockingly labeled Troy Murphy "Randolph's toy" in player ratings.

Lakers players didn’t even think about it.

They actually failed to win any of their previous two away games.

At this moment, the fans in Los Angeles are also very anxious.

"Can the Lakers please give me some help? Stop sleeping!"

"I'm convinced, how can I lose? Why do I have to eat!"

"Are you mistaken? Do the Lakers have an insider that Randolph can dominate?"

"Good news, Su Ye hasn't woken up. Bad news, except for him, all the Knicks have woken up!"

"As mentioned earlier, Su Ye started at 25 minutes even before he woke up."

"What kind of combination is invincible in the world and locks in the championship? It's really messed up!"

"But don't be arrogant, Knicks. When we return to the home court and break out, we will take away the situation and reverse the situation!"

There is no doubt that the one under the greatest pressure at this moment is the Los Angeles Lakers.

They are about to go to New York for an away game. Whether they can win the game depends entirely on their personal performance.

In the next game, they didn't lose without any room for error.

From this day on, everyone’s eyes have been on the Los Angeles Lakers.

The g3 game has also become particularly critical!
