Chapter 415 Prejudice Mistake
But no, Li Ba made a mistake in his prediction.
"boom!"
The basketball hit the rim, hit the backboard, and jumped into the air in the reasonable collision zone.
"damn it!"
Seeing this, Kobe felt that his luck might not be very good today, so he turned around and ran away while cursing.
Li Ba quickly jumped up and took off the rebound over Chandler's head.
Chandler just stuck people and didn't jump at all.
It doesn't matter if you grab the boss's shot, and it doesn't matter if you grab the boss's assists, but if you grab the boss's rebounds, you may be put on small shoes, and it is possible to be traded.
Marbury catches the ball quickly, advances into the paint area, is blocked by Kobe, who is back on defense, and turns into a positional battle.
Li Ba accelerated to the frontcourt with the fast break, and ran directly to the basket. At this time, the Lakers' starting center Mihm had just passed the halfway line and was a bit slower.
"Lamar, the hammer is yours, stick it up! Stick it up to restrict his movement."
Seeing that Odom didn't lean on Li Ba at all, coach Tom finally couldn't stand it anymore, pointed at Li Ba who was rushing to the basket, and shouted loudly from the sidelines.
Odom reluctantly approached Li Ba a little bit.
He was very annoyed, he only weighed 100 kilograms, and his absolute strength was not outstanding, could he seek death by going up?
Seeing this, Li Ba immediately accelerated and changed direction, and his right shoulder rubbed against Odom, who staggered and almost fell.
In this way, no one stopped Li Ba from rushing to the basket.
Marbury passed the ball, Li Ba jumped up to catch the ball, and smashed the basket naturally, which was instantly displayed in the Staples Arena.
"boom!"
The arms were dunked heavily, and the basket was steep.
"Yeah, I'm the Hammers, this is my moment! I'm acting, I'm bombing the Lakers rim, who can stop me? Who can?"
The sun's on-site commentator roared with excitement.
"You're just a commentator who can't see the light, what are you talking about." The Lakers commentator next to him rolled his eyes and complained with disdain.
"The quality of the inside line of the Lakers is too poor. They can't withstand the bombing of the hammer. The center is too slow, how can they keep up with the hammer? Power forward Odom wants to detour when he sees the hammer. He can defend against the hammer. ?” Yu Jia laughed.
"It's hard to find a good insider! The Suns were lucky and hit the hammer. You see, they want to find a good power forward. Have you found it? They haven't found it after two seasons." Zhang Lili laughed.
The Lakers attack.
Kobe tried his hand again, and then made a three-pointer from the left wing, making a fake and real shot.
Battier was swayed back, and it was too late to catch up to block the shot.
"boom!"
But the ball still missed.
Li Ba grabbed the rebound and threw it to Marbury who had already turned around at the top of the arc.
Kobe had a feeling when he took the shot, the ball would not hit, and he immediately returned to defense.
Marion quickly went down from the left wing (the Suns front court), and when he advanced to the left wing three-point line, he received a pass from Marbury and made a three-pointer.
"boom!"
The ball misses, Kobe grabs the rebound and the Lakers attack.
Li Ba ran to the top of the arc and stopped, and hurried back to the paint area to wait for defense.
"This is not in line with the Suns' tactical play. This is a wave shot. Marbury didn't make a fast break, so he should continue to wait a little longer and play positional warfare after the hammer comes up. Such a wave shot, rebounds are not good. Any guarantee." Yu Jia said.
"Today, the Suns should have an absolute advantage in rebounding. Chandler and Marion are both capable of grabbing the ball. Marion's shot was really too hasty. The Suns' positional tactics should really wait for the hammer to fall. Attack." Zhang Li said.
"Now the Knicks play like this. People run non-stop, shoot the ball as soon as they catch the ball, and play an offense in a few seconds. The game is pretty good, and the record is good, but I don't know what will happen after entering the playoffs. " Yu Jia said.
"Running and gunning is really good-looking. But there is no defense. Rebounding depends on the sky, and it is unstable. Now the Suns and the Knicks have the best record in the league. One is the traditional center play, which is based on defensive counterattacks and positional warfare. The other is basic. There is no running and bombing by a center, and there is no defense, two extremes. Some people are already discussing the issue of how the league will play in the future." Zhang Lili said.
"Currently, it seems that the traditional center style of play is still the mainstream. The Hammer has continued to play this style of play. After all, running and bombing has just appeared this season. It has not passed the test of time and the playoffs. The future is hard to say. If it can be played, With a good performance in the playoffs, there may be teams to learn from." Yu Jia said.
"That's for sure. With the traditional center forward style of play, good centers are too hard to find." Zhang Lili said.
"boom!"
Lakers frontcourt, Kobe Bryant finally hit a ball.
This is a mid-range shot, hitting the basket and going in.
Although the shot was made, Kobe shook his hand, feeling unsatisfied.
4:2, the Suns temporarily lead away.
"Xiao En, next time you want to make a wild shot, wait until I get to the basket. You can make as many shots as you want." Li Ba shouted at Marion as he ran to the frontcourt.
"OK!"
After making an OK gesture, Marion smiled.
"Ha ha……"
Li Ba's voice was very loud, and there was a burst of laughter from the sidelines all around.
Next, Li Ba did not attack again, but let the outside shot to test his hand.
He does have an advantage in the interior today, but there is no need to consume too much energy on the offensive end. It is enough to maintain the ability to attract double-teams. He must warm up the outside line, otherwise he will not be able to handle anything alone.
After half a quarter, 14:9, the Suns led by 5 points.
The advantage is not big, the main outside touch is not up, and some wild shots wasted a lot of ball possession.
Li Ba grabbed 5 rebounds in the half quarter. The rebound ratio between the team and the Lakers was 8:4, 4 more in the half quarter.
To put it simply, the Suns rely on grabbing rebounds, and the Lakers rely on picking up rebounds.
Kobe made 2 of 6 shots and 1 of 1 free throw in the first half. He scored 5 points, which was not efficient enough.
After half a quarter, the Lakers attacked, called a timeout, and then changed to the bus.
"Battelle, use your strength to limit the movement of the hammer, I hope you can do it." Tom said to the bus.
"Don't worry, coach." The bus almost patted his chest.
When he got on the court and got to the basket, the bus next to Li Ba said, "Tie Hammer, you are not a center. Why do you always stay at the basket? Follow me outside."
"Am I not a center forward?"
Li Ba was startled, and thought, this time he is really not, he is a power forward.
Nodding, he left the basket and gave up his position to Zhengyin center Chandler who was pushed aside by him.
Instead of going to the low post on the right wing, he went to the low post on the left wing because Kobe was on the left wing.
When Kobe saw it, he immediately started, one step forced Battier, and rushed to the paint area.
He didn't go low to break through, but broke through from the high elbow, away from Li Ba's defense.
Marion came from the free throw line to cover the defense, but was restrained by Lakers small forward Butler, and Kobe went straight to the basket from the left elbow.
As soon as Li Ba reached the low position on the left wing, he immediately moved up, but was blocked by Battelle.
Battelle is also a brute force, although the speed is very slow, but as the offensive side, he has prepared for the offensive cover in advance.
Bryant jumped up to face Chandler.
Chandler jumps to block.
Kobe exerted strength in the midair, turned around, opened his invisible wings in an instant, circled Chandler and turned to the right wing of the basket, raised his right arm, and sent a backhand layup.
"boom!"
The basketball rolls into the hoop.
At 14:11, the Lakers trailed by three points at home.
