Healing Basketball

   Chapter 425 425. What about my big ball?

   Liu Xiu happily ran with Kobe, and Randolph hit Odom in the low post, attracting Wang Zhizhi to attack.

  Wang Zhizhi did a very good job of pinching, using his height to cover Randolph's shot space, and also cut off Randolph's line to pass Kwame Brown to the basket.

  Randolph did not make a strong shot, and passed the ball to Rahim who was on the right side of the free throw line. Raheem received the ball and passed it again...

  Liu Xiu blocked Kobe by Kwame Brown on the left sideline of the three-second zone, quickly took two steps to spread the distance, and hit a mid-range jumper on the left side of the three-second zone!

   Kobe shook his head and ran forward.

  The TV commentator analyzed Kobe shaking his head. It was his dissatisfaction with the No. 6 jersey on the left side of the free throw line... No, it was Atkins who wore the No. 9 jersey with his hands on his hips and was reluctant to move his feet to make up for it.

   But Atkins, Kobe was actually used to it.

   Kobe's akimbo shaking his head is due to Liu Xiu's progress through cover!

  Thinking of Liu Xiu's sudden deceleration when he was struggling to move, but suddenly accelerating before taking cover, Kobe ran through a group of alpacas in his heart.

   During the All-Star Game, Liu Xiu's rhythm was not so good by covering, and his progress was too fast!

This is not a simple emergency stop and quick start. For a defense boss like Kobe, a simple emergency stop and emergency start, he can predict in advance and make corresponding defensive actions. The lower limit that anyone can do can be very low and the upper limit can be quite high skill.

   Anyway, this round made Kobe want to hammer Nash. He vowed that if he can enter the playoffs this season, he will definitely play with the Suns!

  The offense and defense transitioned, the Lakers attacked, Atkins advanced to the frontcourt, Kobe roared for the ball, Atkins was startled, and hurriedly passed it.

   Liu Xiu, who was defending Atkins, saw this scene and remembered the scene where Yao Ming yelled at Su La MMP scared Su La to pass the ball.

Atkins, who is obsessed with singles, has a 37% three-point shooting rate in his career, making an average of 1.7 three-pointers per game. There is no difference between giving open shots and sending points. Liu Xiu guards in front of Atkins. The matter is left to Payton, and Payton said before the game - "Leave Kobe to me!"

  Although he felt that Payton might be hanged, Liu Xiu chose to trust his teammates. After all, he was the best defensive player in the past.

It's just boring to defend Atkins. This guy also seems to have his jersey number upside down in his offense. He stands by without the ball and doesn't move his feet... Liu Xiu's defense doesn't like doing nothing, and Atkins doesn't move, then he Just press on.

After attracting the attention of the other party,    asked, "Are you so timid, are you so afraid of Kobe?"

  Atkins: ?

   "You have no confidence in yourself? Do you think Kobe's success rate against Payton is higher than yours against me?"

  Atkins: ? ? ?

  Atkins reacted and wanted to respond, and Liu Xiu ran back to the inside.

   Kobe Bryant beat Payton, rolled into the inside line, and faced Payton and Kwame Brown with one dozen and two strong pull-ups for a layup...

   Liu Xiu ran inside to see if there was a defensive rebound, just picked up the ball that fell from the basket, and left the bottom line speechlessly and sent it to Payton.

   Seeing Peyton's confident look of "I want to prevent Kobe", Liu Xiu thought that the veteran must have some secret tricks, but in the blink of an eye, he saw Peyton being beaten by Kobe.

   Offensive and defensive transition, Payton advanced to the frontcourt, Liu Xiu's movement and Randolph's low position asked for the ball to empty the line, Payton himself came, singled Atkins, and hit a pull-up jumper that hit the free throw line!

   Payton first?

   It doesn't matter who comes!

   Offense and defense transition, Kobe reached out to Atkins, the ball is coming!

  The ball is coming!

  The ball is here for Lao Tzu... Where's the ball?

  “哐”

   A familiar voice entered Kobe's ears, but the ball didn't reach him, so why did the sound of hammering come?

   turned his head and looked, sure enough! Atkins's post-shooting action hasn't been fully retracted.

   There was no time to roar, Kobe quickly chased after the defense, and Liu Xiuxia quickly broke!

  Liu Xiu quickly received a long pass from Rahim, and faced a bad chance against Kobe's aggressive and decisive defense.

  The weight of 104 kilograms still maintains the top speed!

  What about the lack of talent, the disabled, and the hard work?

   But his warden has teammates!

   Liu Xiu burst into the depths, came to the bottom line, made an emergency stop, turned around, and scored the ball... Randolph received the ball and leaned on Caron Butler to make a layup.

   Kobe snorted again. Butler has a very good relationship with him and is also the most stable teammate on offense. But this defense is not without effort, and his physical fitness is not bad, but the defensive effect is half as good as Nash, and the defense is negative.

   This season, the Lakers defense is not very good, Kobe just hummed a few words, offense is their strength.

   Their lineup, everyone can throw three points! Butler and Wang Zhizhi's three-point shooting rate is more than 40%!

  When the Lakers attacked, Atkins calmed down a bit after hitting an iron. When he ran back to receive the serve just now, he was glared at by Kobe, and he was a little scared.

   But As soon as Atkins advanced beyond the three-point line, he heard the warden on the opposite side say in a very sincere tone: "Pass it on to Kobe, you really can't."

  Atkins can't be irritated!

  Ignoring Kobe's 'ball coming' posture, Atkins continued to play singles!

   Liu Xiu mainly defended and shot, and Atkins had poor outside shooting opportunities, so he chose to break through.

Atkins's direction-changing skills are very good. Liu Xiu was shaken out of the breakthrough space, but Atkins' speed was fast, but his start was average. Liu Xiu, who was not discouraged by being shaken away, pressed him with all his strength. Although Atkins made a breakthrough Space, but under Liu Xiu's clingy defense, he could not at least get rid of it after getting the breakthrough space.

   Atkins didn't really pass Liu Xiu until he entered the free throw line. After coming to close range, he flew to the basket with excitement...

"Snapped"

   Kwame Brown's volleyball cap!

   Kwame Brown was surprised by this ball. Atkins' vision and desire to shoot are simply incomprehensible.

   Liu Xiu, who was chasing behind Atkins, grabbed the ball and fought back!

   Kobe just ran over and started to run to the backcourt with all his strength.

   Liu Xiu and Rahim rushed to the frontcourt, forming a fast break 2-on-1 situation.

   Kobe didn't give up, he first blocked it towards Rahim. When Liu Xiu grabbed the ball and attacked the frame, Kobe fought hard towards Liu Xiu, trying his best to cut off the pass and catch line between Liu Xiu and Rahim...

   Liu Xiu's flexible European steps avoided Kobe, took off in the third step, placed the basket and easily scored two points.

   The opening 6 to 2!

   Liu Xiu and Rahim gave a high five to retreat. The relaxed smiles on their faces deeply stimulated Kobe Bryant.

  When was it so easy for Raheem to meet him?

   Even if they met in the playoffs last season, Raheem was so nervous!

   The sense of gap that Kobe often feels this season is here again!

Both Liu Xiu and Raheem ran out of the free throw line, and Atkins and Butler ran in. Kobe picked up the ball, ignoring Atkins, who reached out to catch the ball, and sent it to Butler and shouted: "Pasimi !"

   Kobe advanced to the frontcourt by himself, Payton continued to stick to the defense, Kobe did not pause, and directly broke through.

Payton had no suspense to be passed again, but he tried his best to stick to Kobe like a dog skin plaster. Liu Xiu and Rahim on both sides made the same choice at this time. Atkins and Butler were two big three. The breakup was empty, and Liu Xiu and Rahim chose to attack at the same time.

   One-on-three, what's the difference with vacancies?

  The benefits of gaining weight and muscle are there. Under the defense of Liu Xiu and Payton, Kobe still completed his take-off, and his take-off height avoided Rahim's cap and successfully shot the ball out...but it was iron!

  Randolph protects the defensive rebound and passes to Payton.

   This time the Lakers retreated very aggressively. Wang Zhizhi, Butler, and Lamar Odom learned to be good, and they retreated after Kobe shot, and they didn't have any rebounds to say if they pulled so much.

   Offensive and defensive transition, Payton advanced to the frontcourt, although singles against Atkins is a good option, but he did not continue singles, the reason is very simple - physical strength.

Liu Xiu received the ball from the outside. Facing Kobe's defense, Liu Xiu borrowed Kwame Brown's pick-and-roll three-point shot... As a top defensive player, Kobe can easily see the improvement of Liu Xiu's three-point rhythm after the pick-and-roll, and he is in a bad mood again. Some.

   Fortunately, Liu Xiu hit the iron, and Kobe felt a lot better when he saw the ball hit the rim.

   However, the ball fell and was picked up by Atkins!

  Atkins pushed forward quickly, Kobe hurried to keep up, and kept shouting to me.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Trail Blazers’ defense was not stable, Kobe leaned on Liu Xiu to cut into the close range, and then he could get on the ball, but Atkins did not pass, facing Rahim who was on the switch, Atkins retreated with a single. Three-point shot...

   Cast decisively and ironly!

   Kobe wanted to make a second attack, but Liu Xiu held them up. The two took off at the same time, but Liu Xiu jumped more fully than Kobe, and he dangerously protected the defensive rebound.

  Liu Xiu immediately shot the ball, Peyton, who returned to the middle circle, received the pass, and hurriedly fought back and shot the ball!

  Randolph received the ball from the free throw line and rushed to the basket, flying with both hands and dunking!

   Butler, who returned to the basket, resolutely gave way. This is not a question of losing face. The big fat man weighing more than 120 kilograms rushed up and dunked...

   The Lakers have changed from being able to make an offense-defense transition against the Trail Blazers, to being unsettled by the Trail Blazers making an offense-defense transition.

  8 to 2, the Trail Blazers extended their lead to 6 points!

  …

   In the case of the Lakers, normal coaches should call a timeout.

   But Frank Hamblen didn't, he, panicked, didn't know what to do, and decided to do nothing.

   On the court, Kobe looked at Atkins viciously, Atkins did not dodge at all, stared back at Kobe, and no one went back to receive the serve.

   But it doesn't matter, Odom took Butler's serve and advanced to the frontcourt.

   Liu Xiu waited for a while, and Atkins pulled away, but Kobe and Atkins still didn't fight, which was a pity.

   If I knew it earlier, I would add gas next to it, maybe it will really start a fight?

   Kobe and Atkins pulled out for the ball at the same time. Liu Xiu was disappointed again.

   Liu Xiu directly emptied Atkins and attacked Kobe Bryant.

   Kobe made a tank-style breakthrough and went straight to the basket.

   Kobe, who entered the basket, was surrounded by Liu Xiu, Raheem, and Kwame Brown, and he slammed the ball out.

   Moreover, when the basket was barely visible when he shot, Kobe's throw hit the hollow!

   Fairy Ball!

   This ball seemed to see the shadow of God.

   Facing a team with a winning percentage of less than 50%, the Blazers did not care because the opponent had Kobe Bryant.

   Offense and defense transition, when receiving the serve, Liu Xiu and Payton said a few words.

   Peyton's eyes lit up, he wanted to volunteer to take on such a task, it was what he was good at back then... But he still didn't speak, he had to obey the old man, saying that it was what he was good at back then...

   Payton advanced over the half court, did not continue to give the ball to Liu Xiu, and Randolph did not take a low position, and passed the ball to Rahim on the right side of the three-second zone.

  Rahim singled against Butler, smashed the ball into the basket with one hand and scored two points!

   Kobe's magic ball, Raheem responded with a dunk!

   Kobe secretly shouted that it was good, let go of Liu Xiu and put it in to receive the serve, he was going to fight Rahim for 300 rounds, and let Rahim know who was the strongest in the 96th class!

   But Liu Xiu was unwilling to separate from Kobe like this, and took the initiative to press up on Kobe, sticking to Kobe, Liu Xiu pressed the whole court to defend the front, and did not give Kobe a chance to return the serve.

   Except for Liu Xiu, Payton didn't retreat immediately, but Payton didn't interfere with Atkins' serve, but helped Liu Xiu limit Kobe's catch.

  Kobe: ? ? ? ?
