Chapter 356 Missile Range!
Lin Dong's body tilted to the side and back, leaning back at an oblique angle, grabbing the ball with his right hand, and taking the initiative to meet Kobe's blocking hand with his left hand in a ball-protecting posture.
This is tantamount to voluntarily giving up the opportunity to stay in the air and continue to fight for the highest point. O'Neal's two big hands in front have completely covered Lin Dong's right-hand shooting route.
A foul?
Kobe was secretly surprised. Lin Dong's offensive just now was very strong. He never thought that he would be "cowarded" and seek a foul instead.
The other party took the initiative to bump into him, and it was too late to back away at this moment, but...
It’s not a bad thing, at least this guy was ‘cowarded’ when faced with being double-teamed by two people!
Kobe snorted coldly, as long as I see your limit and your "cowardice", what if I give you a foul?
Snapped!
Uh-huh!
It is indeed not that easy to challenge the OK combination alone, but it is definitely not impossible. Lin Dong smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.
While his left hand was being hit by Kobe, the basketball in his right hand was also released.
There is indeed no space directly in front and to the right to shoot. Even if the shot is made, O'Neal's position can adjust the blocking angle to block it.
But the only place O'Neill can't seal is the sky!
The basketball was thrown high, and it didn't look like he was shooting at all, but more like he was throwing it into the sky.
At this time, the basketball was at least two meters high above O'Neal's hands, already exceeding the height of the top edge of the backboard.
But just when everyone thought the ball would fly toward the audience, they saw an obvious change in the trajectory of the basketball in the air.
The ball was not only thrown high and dropped, but also had a little inward force. It actually lost its forward momentum when it was about two meters above the basket, making it seem as if it was hovering in mid-air. Then he fell straight into the net.
The ball goes in!
beep!
"The goal is valid, the Lakers' No. 8 thug fouled, and one extra penalty was awarded!"
Payton and other players on the field shook their fists fiercely, and the arena that had been bustling just now suddenly became much quieter.
The three of them landed almost at the same time, and both Kobe and O'Neal had a trace of deep fear in their eyes.
Is this a throw? Or is it a pick?
It's not that there are no, or even many, people in the NBA who can exert force in a way that's close to pulling a lever.
But if there is an interception in front and a pursuer behind, it is really a bit...
Is this a magic ball?
Facing this guy, you still can't be careless. There are too many scoring methods... However, this is just the beginning of the first quarter. How many times can you fight two against each other like this?
The thoughts of the players are obviously no better than those of the fans. The scene of the one-on-one was still being replayed in slow motion on the big screen, making the noise and noise in the Staples Center much smaller and buzzing. Buzz.
As Lin Dong steadily scored the free throw, 4:3.
The Sonics retreated, and the Lakers, who received the baseline ball and reorganized their offense, had more fighting spirit in their eyes than before.
This is their home court, how can they let an Asian show them all here?
The skinny monkey behind him was no longer in O'Neal's eyes. Maybe he was working very hard, but after a few or two moves, the opponent's level was there. He couldn't change the sky and couldn't hide any back tricks. O'Neal's eyes were fixed on Lin Dong. .
Kobe's eyes were also burning with raging flames, and he was beaten 2+1 during a double attack. It was so embarrassing...
The offensive and defensive battle between the two sides started frantically from this moment on.
The Lakers had the ball, and Kobe was stimulated to run even more crazily than before.
It was embarrassing enough to lose in the previous two away games, but he didn't want to be embarrassed again at this home game!
With his youthful energy and strong fighting spirit, Kobe's athletic ability was fully unleashed at this time, and he was running wildly without the ball. Payton almost risked his life to hang him up.
At this time, the triangle offensive system began to officially come on stage. O'Neal's containment at the basket and Fox's counter movement pulled Lin Dong to the right baseline.
Payton's defense was pulled to the left by Kobe.
Lin Dong can find pick-and-rolls, and Kobe will naturally do the same.
His partner was naturally not as professional as Payton when he was picking and rolling for Lin Dong, but... his level was not good enough, so he made up for it with penalties.
Fisher used a pick-and-roll that was suspected of being a moving screen and forcibly intercepted Payton, who was desperately chasing Kobe.
At this time, Brent's dislocation was almost useless to Kobe. An emergency stop during the breakthrough directly knocked Brent to the ground, followed by a step back and stepped on the shot from outside the three-point line. , the basketball hits the net hollowly.
After scoring 3 points, the Lakers opened the score again, 7:3!
"Move the screen! Move the screen! Watch the replay!" McMillan and a group of substitute players on the sidelines were yelling at the referee to remind him.
In fact, everyone knows that they will definitely ignore you.
Fisher's moving screen was relatively concealed. Except that both Payton and Brent blocked his moving legs at the time, his pivot foot did not move. If you really want to replay it at home, With the 360-degree camera position of the home court, I can easily find you a few replays with no flaws at all.
In the home court, this is pretty good.
But as a coach, you still have to yell, remind the referee, and put a certain amount of psychological pressure on the referee and the Lakers players to make them restrain themselves later.
Otherwise, if you really don't respond at all like a stick, they will think that you are an idiot who is easy to bully, and they will gradually start to brag you even more outrageously.
Sure enough, the referee ignored him, or in other words, the referee could even pretend not to hear, because at this time, the cheers from the stadium were already shaking the floor.
——Kobe! Kobe! Kobe!
——Kill them all in one go!
——The Lakers must win! OH! OH! OH!
Amid the din of the entire court, the ball was in the hands of the SuperSonics.
At this time, you can see that the SuperSonics' rhythm on the court has completely picked up.
Brent quickly threw a baseline ball, and Payton rushed forward with the ball. This time, before Fisher could get in front of Payton, Lin Dong rushed forward and provided a screen for Payton.
The pupils in Payton's eyes shrank.
call!
Super low body breakthrough!
With the help of Lin Dong's cover, he suddenly rushed to the right, his speed was not inferior to Lin Dong's.
If the tiger doesn't show off its power, do you think I'm a sick cat?
At this time, Fisher was blocked by Lin Dong, and Payton's breakthrough was extremely sharp. Kobe felt a shiver in his heart, and subconsciously pushed forward in a misplaced position.
The best defensive point guard in history can do more than just defense!
But the next second, Kobe realized something was wrong.
Payton's super low dive continued, but Lin Dong over there had already stood up.
Fisher's attention was pulled over by Payton at this time, and he didn't even realize that Lin Dong jumped up. Only when Kobe Bryant glanced at him from the corner of his eye, he suddenly woke up.
They had already exchanged the ball when they were mismatched. Payton was just a cover-up. No wonder he broke through so fast, just because he was rushing empty-handed and the ball was in Lin Dong's hand!
This thought had just finished running through Kobe Bryant's mind, and Lin Dong over there had already shot the ball.
Uh-huh!
3 points scored, 7:6!
The noise in the arena that had just started to get loud was immediately suppressed for the most part.
Lin Dong landed on the ground with a smile on his face, cupped his right hand to his ear, and made a 'listening' gesture toward the surrounding stands.
The Staples Center went from humming to silent in an instant.
McMillan in the audience couldn't help but covered his face with laughter and tears.
He knew that Lin Dong was excited, which was a good thing.
But this is the Staples Center, brother, and the opponent is the Lakers. Are you afraid that your opponent's combat power will not be as high as expected? Or are you afraid that the boos for the visiting team will be too quiet?
Sure enough, wow...
A brief moment of silence at Staples Center was followed by uproar and outrage.
——Is that kid provoking us?
——Do you really think he is a silencer?
——I heard that when this guy used to play in the NSAA, the louder the taunts on the away team got, the more excited he got, and then the harder he hit...
——Faq! What the hell? He gets even more excited, does he think this is NSAA? This is the NBA! This is the Staples Center! This is the holy land of three consecutive championships!
——Come on, Lakers! Give that arrogant bastard some color!
And in this big scene full of angry sounds, Yang Dong's figure was naturally indispensable.
"Well done son!"
It can only be said that some things are indeed inherited from ancestors.
Yang Dong, who decided to return to the stadium, has already awakened the passion of his youth. At this time, he seems to be more energetic than Lin Dong and has great courage.
This is not the SuperSonics home court. They entered the stadium as private persons and were sitting in ordinary stands. At this time, they were clearly standing among Lakers fans wearing Purple and Gold jerseys, but Yang Dong was frantically cheering his son on: "Send them to me again." A few 3-pointers! This combination, that combination, it’s nothing, this home team is so weak!”
This made Mito Yohei and Yang Long sitting on her left and right sides immediately feel like they were facing a formidable enemy, always alert to possible attacks from the home fans around them.
Fortunately, the noise at the scene was so loud that even the two of them couldn't hear Yang Dong's shout clearly, let alone others.
The Lakers have the ball.
Lin Dong's provocative actions undoubtedly made OK group more energetic.
The offensive triangle was instantly set up, and Kobe ran back to catch the ball. He wanted to use Fisher's mobile pick-and-roll again to hit Brent's mismatch, but this time Payton didn't give him a chance.
After all, Fisher is not Payton. His ability to escape is not that strong, and his coordination ability is not that strong. If he wants to pick and roll with Kobe, most of the time, Kobe can only find the cutting position.
But at this time, Payton, who was desperately trying to stop Kobe and Fisher, blocked the path that Kobe and Fisher must pass through, and did not give those two people a chance to pick and roll. Brent also clung to Fisher. Er, wait for the connection between the two to be cut off.
But the Lakers still have O'Neal.
Seeing that the weak side couldn't find an opportunity, Fisher passed the ball to Samaki Walker who was pulling up to the top of the three-point arc on the right side. Walker hit Desmond with his back, took two steps forward and then hit him. The ball was safely handed to O'Neal.
At this time, Sakuragi Hanamichi's mind was filled with the previous lessons.
Prejudgment! Prejudgment!
His brain was spinning wildly, trying to read O'Neal's intentions, and he felt like he was going to hit him from behind!
Sakuragi's pupils shrank suddenly...
boom!
A powerful back sit, the huge brute force forced Sakuragi, who was still frantically analyzing his movements in his mind, to take two steps back.
A flash of despair flashed in Sakuragi's eyes.
Frankly speaking, his understanding was correct, and his prediction was accurate, but first, his prediction was too slow.
Rodman's kind of prejudgment requires no brain at all. It belongs to the type where O'Neal knows he is going to shit before he sticks out his butt. However, Sakuragi still needs to judge through detailed movements and brain analysis. Getting to the point where that defensive instinct is there.
Second, defeat ten groups with one force! Not many people can withstand such a strong back attack, not to mention you are still distracted and thinking about other things?
boom!
A two-handed dunk, and the Lakers scored another 2 points.
9:6!
But then he turned around, and before the cheers of the fans at the scene had come to an end, the SuperSonics' fast break had already begun.
Brent served from the baseline, and Payton held the ball quickly. The SuperSonics pressed forward. On the contrary, Lin Dong, who was always the most active, seemed to have failed to keep up with the rhythm. Payton had already rushed to the three-point line, and he Not far from the center line.
Is there a conspiracy?
Kobe's pupils shrank suddenly, and while he was still retreating, he turned around and subconsciously pounced on Lin Dong.
It's a pity that it's a step too late...
Payton looked back at the moon and passed directly to Lin Dong, who was slowly following from behind. At this time, Lin Dong was just about a step out of the center circle, but his eyes had been staring at the basket for a long time.
The moment he caught the ball, he immediately stood up, ignoring Kobe who was rushing towards him from at least three or four meters away, and used the thrust of his jump to throw the ball steadily.
But the basketball flew directly across the half-court distance, drawing a perfect parabola in the air.
Uh-huh!
Staples Arena, still immersed in the cheers of the previous goal, suddenly became quiet again.
3-pointer scored, 9:9!
France, France...what kind of missile range is this?
The home fans were open-mouthed.
What kind of tactic is this? It’s not like you’re trying to steal the decisive moment… Is there any way to play like this? !
