I'm not a basketball bully

Chapter 493

For the Knicks, this defeat isn't much of a problem.

They can accept failure.

And you can quickly find shortcomings.

Looking outside, now that a game has passed, public opinion has long become one-sided.

Before the game started, many media had already approached the Knicks team in advance, interviewing them frantically and asking them about their thoughts on losing to the Lakers.

At first the Knicks leaders refused to answer the question.

But when Su Ye and his group walked out of the locker room, reporters also swarmed in, wanting to ask Su Ye why.

Su Ye turned around and glanced coldly at the reporters.

"The Knicks are going to lose?"

"I do not know how."

After saying this, no one present dared to continue speaking.

And the news spread quickly.

Many Knicks fans saw Su Ye's speech before the game and were full of confidence.

They all also noticed that the Knicks tonight were completely different from the Knicks in the past.

With this extremely confident person, there is also the Lakers who have experienced a victory.

As an away team, they can win a victory at the Knicks' home court.

This means that they are likely to get off to a 3:1 start after four games.

After all, home field advantage cannot be replaced by anything else.

Putting aside other issues, as far as the Knicks' situation is concerned, this is something that no one wants to know.

All they want now is to see the Knicks win.

Sure enough, the Knicks showed their adjusted state from the beginning.

Dayao won the jump ball and the Lakers' first offensive possession.

Paul managed to get past Deron with the ball, but was directly blocked by Stephenson.

Block me?

Kobe doesn't care anymore?

Paul was stunned for a moment, turned around and was about to pass the ball to Kobe when Su Ye directly completed the steal.

Su Ye predicted Paul's passing route one step ahead and created an offensive error for the Lakers in this round.

The fans in the audience roared.

"No!"

"Is this broken?"

"Something's not right! Something's not going right with the Knicks today!"

After completing the steal, Su Ye launched a fast break, and everyone swarmed up to attack the Lakers.

Finally, relying on Su Ye's basket to finish, the Knicks scored the first point of the opening game.

Kobe frowned and looked at the Lakers in front of him, with a bit of confusion in his eyes.

Paul on the side shook his head and apologized to everyone.

"Mine, mine."

Dayao took the initiative to comfort him.

"It's okay, they have a tactical plan, let's take our time."

Kobe also nodded in agreement.

The Knicks' defensive tactics are clearer tonight than yesterday.

After the game resumed, fans also discovered the strangeness of tonight's game.

Generally speaking, the pace of play on the court is divided into fast pace and slow pace.

Fast pace means more frequent transitions between offense and defense, increasing the drama of fast breaks.

The slow pace is a long positional battle duel.

But in tonight's game, whether you say it's fast or not, it's not slow. Overall, it feels strange.

Halfway through the first quarter, teacher Zhang Weiping made everyone wake up with a sigh in the CCTV studio.

"The Knicks defended really well tonight!"

On the screen, the Knicks defense was airtight tonight.

The Lakers launched several fast breaks, but they were directly destroyed by the Knicks.

And when it comes to positional warfare, the Knicks were particularly targeted tonight.

Kobe took three shots in six minutes and hit just once.

Other locations are not as comfortable either.

Especially Yao, as soon as he caught the ball, he was immediately targeted by Stephenson.

As long as he dares to enter a back-up position, Stephenson will immediately try to destroy his offense and force Dayao to pass the ball.

When passing the ball in this situation, most mistakes will occur.

Within the first two minutes of the game, the Lakers team had already made three turnovers.

This made the Zen master immediately call for a timeout to adjust.

When the game resumed, the Knicks still didn't give them any chance.

In the first quarter, the Lakers only scored 22 points.

On the other side, the Knicks didn't have many, and they only scored 26 points, leading by 4 points entering the second quarter.

Between the first and second quarters, teacher Zhang Weiping also decisively gave his views on the game.

"I think there is no problem with Coach Prosser's tactical choice."

"He obviously reduced Kobe's touch rate in this game."

"Touch rate?" Yu Jia was slightly startled. He hadn't noticed all this yet.

Teacher Zhang Weiping nodded and explained slowly.

"Just look, at the beginning of the first quarter, he was using Stephenson and Su Ye to cut off Kobe's receiving path."

"As long as the ball falls into Yao's hands, Stephenson will step up."

"Look, look! Here we go again!"

On the screen, Stephenson went up to interfere with Dayao.

Dayao was unable to perform his movements on the spot and could only stuff the ball outside.

Kobe couldn't give it to Kobe from a distance, so he could only pass it to Artest and let him play the ball for Kobe.

But as soon as Artest received the ball with his front foot, Kobe was entangled by Deron on his back foot, preventing him from getting close to Artest to complete the hand-to-hand pass.

Now Artest has no choice but to think of giving it to Paul.

Just because of this hesitation, the Lakers have wasted a full 10 seconds of attack time by the Knicks.

Su Ye also had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he slapped Artest's ball away.

After grabbing the ball, Su Ye waited in the backcourt for his teammates to get into position.

At this moment, the fans all gasped.

Everything is just as teacher Zhang Weiping said, the Knicks are more brave than usual now.

"I think the Knicks' tactics were very good today. They just focused on you inside and put pressure on you."

"If nothing else happens, the Knicks should be able to win the game tonight."

"At least at this stage, Jackson has not prepared in advance for the Knicks."

Teacher Zhang Weiping’s words indeed hit the point.

At this moment, on the Lakers bench, Master Zen was sweating profusely.

He himself didn't expect that the Knicks would play like this tonight.

From the beginning of the first quarter to the end of the second quarter and into the intermission.

The Lakers never controlled the tempo of the game at the Knicks' home court.

On the contrary, the rhythm on the court tonight was firmly in the hands of the Knicks.

The Knicks want the game to be faster, so the Lakers have to be faster.

The Knicks want the game to be slower, and the Lakers have no way to increase the pace.

It can be said that after Zen Master defeated Prosser in the first game, Prosser regained his place in front of Zen Master.

The fans did not expect that this game would be so anxious.

In the third quarter, the Zen Master fortunately chose to fight to the death.

"I have no tactics for you."

"From now on, all you have to do is launch a fierce attack on me!"

"Just keep attacking the Knicks!"

"Whether it's inside or outside, you have to keep attacking!"

"Do you understand!"

When the entire Lakers team saw their coach speaking like this, everyone's expressions became serious.

"understood!"

At the beginning of the third quarter, everyone noticed that all the Lakers players on the field were murderous.

Kobe, who took the lead, showed a killer-like cold look.

Facing Su Ye who was smiling and waving to him from a distance, he turned a blind eye and was just an indifferent defender.

Su Ye took the ball from Delong and joked with Delong next to him.

"look."

"It starts again."

"This quarter is not easy to play."

Delong shook his head dumbfounded.

They also discovered that the Lakers like to speed up their attack in the third quarter.

To put it bluntly, the Knicks exploded in the third quarter, and the Lakers relied on the number of shots to force the score between the two sides.

Although this will speed up the pace of the game and increase physical exertion.

But it does have some effects on "Ni San Madness".

So much so that when the Knicks face the Lakers, they won't open up a particularly exaggerated score.

Everyone on the Knicks team knows this.

Prosser also told everyone about this before the game.

Su Ye dribbled across half court, and everyone on the Lakers showed solemn looks on their faces.

In this game, Artest guarded Su Ye throughout the game.

But at the beginning of the third quarter, Kobe took the initiative to find Su Ye.

As the team leader, he must suppress Su Ye's offensive rhythm.

On the first kick of the game, Suwai frequently exchanged blows with Kobe on the outside line, and the commentator roared excitedly.

"I'm coming!"

"Su Ye's dribbling, trying to break through."

"Kobe saw it, followed the defense, and blocked the offensive line."

"Su Ye's second adjustment, a disguised form!"

"Ah! This is a fake move!"

"Kobe saw it was a fake move!"

"No one knows Su Ye better than him!"

"The two have been rivals in the finals for many years, and they know each other's style of play very well!"

"There is not much time to attack. Can Su Ye enter the penalty area where he is best!"

"Blocked!"

"Double-team! Artest and Kobe complete the double-team!"

"Su Ye is looking for someone to catch the ball."

"How to do how to do!"

"Randolph got it!"

"Oh, what a pity! This layup is a little more powerful!"

……

The Knicks' first wave of offense was unsuccessful.

It was also the first time that Su Ye was suppressed by his opponent in the third quarter.

Everyone on the field also showed incredible expressions. No one thought that Su Ye could be restrained.

But this cannot be discussed based on past experience.

The people who defended Su Ye in the past were all top defenders in the league, and they relied on experience to defend Su Ye.

No one knows Su Ye as well as Kobe.

After Su Ye was guarded, Kobe even took the initiative to provoke him.

"You still want to score points on me?"

"Fake, Kobe, shut your mouth."

Su Ye laughed and scolded Kobe, and then started to return to defense.

And just like the tactics carried out by the Zen Master.

In this quarter of the game, the Lakers had five offensive points.

No matter the success rate, just whether you can play ball or not.

They will use the advantages of the stars in the team to try to suppress the Knicks' scoring in the third quarter.

The two sides began to fight in the third quarter.

Both sides continued to attack the basket, and the number of shots increased steadily, but the score increased very slowly.

It was not until three minutes after the start of the third quarter that Su Ye once again completed the matchup with Kobe.

The second confrontation between the two people also attracted the focus of countless people.

The commentators were all sighing.

"Su Ye's offensive efficiency against Kobe Bryant in the third quarter tonight was not very satisfactory."

"But the team still believes in Su Ye's personal ability."

"Let's take a look at this offense."

In this attack, Su Ye was no longer as relaxed as before.

After receiving the pass from Delong, Su Ye looked solemn and his eyes were a bit cold.

He also knows one thing.

It is not that simple to win against the Lakers.

In order to play against themselves, the Lakers may have prepared for an entire season just to defeat themselves in the finals.

Facing Kobe, Su Ye did not relax at all.

He threatened the ball three times and glanced around.

Kobe noticed Su Ye's action, and his eyes did not waver at all.

Than Su Ye observed the position of everyone in the Knicks.

Kobe believed that the way Su Ye looked around was a fake move to mislead him.

Just as Kobe expected.

Su Ye's action was misleading Kobe.

But Kobe's guess was not entirely correct.

At this moment, Su Ye made a decisive move to Kobe's left side.

Although Kobe kept up with the defense immediately and wanted to limit Su Ye's offensive line.

But who is Su Ye?

He used to play inside.

Powerful breakthroughs are what he is best at, and Su Ye's left-hand dribbling ability is not weak either.

This caused Kobe to be forcefully pushed inside by Su Ye.

In order not to lose his position, Kobe could only retreat and defend at the same time.

At this moment, Kobe was still thinking about what Su Ye wanted to do.

It makes no sense to simply push them in through force.

As soon as he enters, he will definitely be double-teamed by them just like at the beginning.

But at this moment, Su Ye stopped and stepped back to hit the ball.

This sudden ball made Kobe dumbfounded.

Is Su Ye crazy?

Kobe didn't believe that Su Ye didn't know that he could interfere with this distance.

But in front of Su Ye, Kobe could only confirm that Su Ye was going to force the shot this time.

Just when Kobe took a step forward, Artest suddenly came over and almost collided with Kobe.

The two people collided like this, causing Su Ye to directly complete the shot without anyone defending him.

The audience on the court was shocked when they saw the Lakers defending an own goal.

After hitting the ball, Su Ye was still jokingly teasing the two of them.

"You want to double-team me so much?"

"Okay now, let's bump into each other."

Kobe was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

He now realized that what Su Ye had just observed was not the position of the Knicks, but the position of the Lakers players.

Su Ye already knew that if he dared to enter the paint tonight, he would definitely be double-teamed and defended by the Lakers.

The Lakers just want to use the Bulls' way of defending Su Ye to limit Su Ye's position.

Compared with the Bulls, their perimeter defense is better.

Kobe Bryant limited Su Ye's three-pointers.

Artest completed the assist defense.

The effect of their strategy of using the Bulls to defend Su Ye will be more obvious.

But no one expected that Su Ye would take advantage of his opponent's method, which would lead him to find an opportunity to take action from the gap between the two defenders.

It can be said that Su Ye's golf course allowed him to quickly find a solution to his dilemma.

The Zen master frowned when he saw it, and his eyes showed helplessness.

After this ball hits.

Dayao also realized what Su Ye wanted to do.

He turned around and told Kobe and Artest.

"Artest, let Kobe defend alone."

"Kobe, be careful. I can help you with the inside."

Kobe nodded.

Now that the Bulls' defensive strategy has failed, they can only defend normally.

For this reason, they will definitely face the threat of Su Ye attacking the inside.

as predicted.

After the Lakers gave up using an inside double-team on Su Ye, Su Ye entered the inside for the first time in this game.

After all, Kobe was born as an outside player, and he could not withstand the waves of impact from Su Ye, who was born as an inside player.

In the commentary box, everyone's eyes were focused on Su Ye.

"Su Ye breaks into the inside line!"

"This is his first inside attack in the third quarter!"

"Dayao versus Yao!"

"Su Ye is up!"

"Aerial confrontation!"

"Su Ye!"

"Can I get in here?"

Su Ye, who was leaping high in the air, collided with Dayao.

Dayao groaned.

He saw Su Ye losing his balance in the air and lightly tossed his right hand.

The basketball hit the backboard and bounced into the basket.

Not only that, the referee's whistle sounded in his ear, which also allowed Su Ye to successfully hit a three-pointer.

Dayao pulled up Su Ye who was sitting on the ground, rubbed his aching chest, and complained to him.

"You kid, you really don't treat me as your brother! Be gentle!"

Su Ye smiled, scratched his head, and patted Dayao on the back.

"It's okay, brother, you are crashworthy!"

At this moment, Dayao was so angry that his face turned red and his neck thickened.

What's your weight?

What weight do I weigh.

Am I crashworthy? !

In the end, Dayao could only joke with a wry smile.

"If this continues, you will have to go to the hospital to get VIP treatment for me in this finals. I will have to get checked after every game."

Su Ye asked disapprovingly.

“Isn’t this just medical insurance?”

Dayao was stunned for a moment.

"tmd!"

"You boy!"

"Hey...I'm convinced!"

The two laughed and cursed for a while, and Su Ye walked to the free throw line.

It is this ball that both Knicks and Lakers fans can see.

The Knicks are on their way.

As expected, with Su Ye fighting in front, the others also played harder.

Randolph steeled Bynum under the basket.

Jordan tried his best to squeeze out Dayao for rebounds.

On the outside, Deron continued to assist his teammates with butterfly strings.

Stephenson, who came on the court to pull the basket, also continued to hit three-pointers.

In the third quarter of this game, the Knicks scored a high score of 37, a change from the norm in the first two quarters.

Although the Lakers tried hard to attack, they could only score 30 points.

After all, the Knicks, who are on the rise, are also the top team in the league and cannot be defended so easily.

But it was also because of the increased physical exertion in the third quarter.

This made Dayao's playing time very short in the fourth quarter.

Taking advantage of Yao's absence, the Knicks pulled the score to 12 points in one fell swoop.

By the time Dayao returned to the court, the game was already beyond repair.

The Zen master looked gloomy and kept telling the assistant coach next to him to record the details of the game and prepare to take them back to Los Angeles for careful study.

The final whistle sounded.

The Knicks ended the game with 117:101 points and a 16-point lead.

Even after losing the last game, the big win in the second game gave the fans hope again.

Public opinion in the forum changed again.

Now more and more people are supporting the Knicks.
