NBA peak

Chapter 707 Embarrassed
It seems that there is no point guard in the league who can defend Morant alone this season.

Morant took advantage of the rhythm, took the first step, broke through Schroeder's defense, and at the same time observed the running positions of all his teammates, and cut to the inside of the Lakers very spiritually.

The Lakers' defense began to shrink.

Morant actively leaned on Davis.

When Morant attracted Davis' attention, Morant directly dribbled the ball and hit the ground, passing the ball from Davis' crotch to JJJ in seconds.

When JJJ received the ball, he was just able to jump up and complete a two-handed dunk!

"Boom."

JJJ dunked vigorously with both hands, and the basket buzzed.

Morant didn't rush into the inside for a layup this time, but took a very spiritual hit to the ground in seconds to help JJJ take off successfully.

Morant and JJJ, who completed the cooperation, celebrated with high fives, and their two young twin stars were very excited.

It's the Lakers' turn to get the ball.

The Lakers played very patiently.

No matter how eye-catching Morant and JJJ are, the Lakers players are not in a hurry. They are still strictly following the tactics developed by Kobe before the game, and they are attacking and defending in an orderly manner.

This is a mature performance of the team.

The NBA regular season is very long.

In a normal season, each team has 82 regular-season games to play each year.

After finishing the regular season, the teams that enter the playoffs will also go through the knockout rounds with a 7-4 format.

Although the NBA's schedule makes the results of the game fairer in a certain sense, it also means that players spend a lot of time on the court, and correspondingly, players are more likely to get injured.

The best way to avoid core injuries is to do a good job of rotation and use tactics to prevent players from falling into a state of fighting alone as much as possible.

The Lakers are disciplined, and Kobe's goals are clear.

He just doesn't want Ge Feng and Davis to try their best like Morant and JJJ too early.

Kobe wanted to mobilize the enthusiasm of all the Lakers players through the first round.

In this way, by the time of the semifinals, Western Conference finals, and even the finals, every player on the Lakers who can play has been activated in sevens and eighties.

At that time, if Ge Feng and Davis want to exert their strength again, they will be able to get the full cooperation of their teammates.

For this reason, the Lakers took turns attacking the frame, in sharp contrast to the Grizzlies' Morant and JJJ's dominance.

The Lakers' team basketball, and Morant's thriving, became the epitome of the first three quarters of the Lakers and Grizzlies.

After the three quarters, Morant and JJJ, who were fully fired, were in a hot state. They played against the guest in the away game, helping the Grizzlies 88 to 80 and leading the Lakers by 8 points.

Such a score made the Grizzlies fans excited.

The 73-win Warriors dynasty will be reversed 1-3 by the Cavaliers. Maybe the Lakers this season may be pulled down by the Grizzlies.

If that's the case, Morant will fight to become a god.

During the short break at the end of the third quarter, the Lakers players scratched their heads one by one, obviously a little embarrassed.

Before the start of the playoffs, the Lakers were full of confidence and prepared to attack the championship. As a result, in the first game, they were beaten by a young player who was not yet 23 years old and fell behind by 8 points.

莫兰特已经拿到全场最高的31分7助攻5篮板，JJJ也拿到20分10篮板。

According to this trend, the Grizzlies may really get off to a good start under the leadership of these two people.

Seeing everyone's embarrassment, Kobe smiled and said.

"One or two, before the start of the playoffs, didn't they all think they were invincible? How about now? Are you going to be slapped to death on the beach by the back wave?"

Schroeder chuckled: "Coach, how can that be? We haven't played to our normal level yet! Let that kid Morant be proud for a while, and then return to the court to see if I don't steal two of him, and let him know how good I am."

Everyone laughed.

The atmosphere in the locker room of the Lakers this year is really good. Although they are behind the score, the players did not complain to each other.

This is a very remarkable thing.

This shows that everyone really treats their teammates as a family.

Bryant began to arrange the tactics of the last quarter.

In the last quarter of the game, Kobe naturally wanted to concentrate the ball in the hands of Ge Feng and Davis.

Superstars do the hardest and most tiring jobs.

The more unfavorable the situation, the more superstars have to squeeze forward with their heads stretched out, tying all the victory or defeat to themselves.

The outcome of the opening game is very important to any team.

Ge Feng and Davis encouraged each other, then slammed into each other, ready to play!

Less than 2 minutes into the fourth quarter, Ge Feng and Davis both played early.

Recovering 10 points in 8 minutes is not easy even for Ge Feng and Davis now.

However, although the Lakers are behind in the score, any player is unwilling to admit the possibility of being hacked by the Grizzlies.

This is the confidence bonus brought about by ranking first in the regular season record.

The more this critical moment, the more the Lakers will not admit defeat.

"Let's go! In the last quarter, do every defense! Hang up the Grizzlies boys!"

Before Kobe left, he clapped his hands vigorously and said viciously to the players.

This is the obsession of the Black Mamba.

All Lakers fans are aware that Kobe is now in a black Mamba state.

If the Lakers players can't play the desired effect, Kobe, who turned into a Mamba, will really jump up and bite after the game is over!
Ge Feng and Davis returned to the court, and the fans cheered for the Lakers in unison.

Although the situation of the game exceeded the expectations of the Lakers fans, the fans still have full confidence in the Lakers.

A 70-win team, at the very least, should be a finals-level team.

Morant repeated his old tricks and wanted to use his explosive physical fitness to break into the Lakers inside and score.

As a result, neither Schroeder nor Davis was going to save face for him this time. Schroder went directly to his body, delaying Morant's speed, and Davis was the first to kill and slapped Morant's shot in the air.

The Lakers strengthened their defensive strength, which instantly made Morant feel very uncomfortable.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

After all, Morant is young. After the opponent suddenly increased his intensity, his state was a little dull.

Ge Feng and Bo Yang launched a counterattack. Ge Feng faced the defending Brooks without slowing down, and just followed him to complete the layup.

After Ge Feng's explosive power improved, facing players who were smaller than him, Ge Feng only needed to put his body against the opponent without thinking, and the opponent generally had no way to interfere with Ge Feng's shot.

"Shh."

The scene burst into cheers.

As soon as Ge Feng and Davis came back, they contributed a block and added a defensive counterattack.

The Lakers in this state now are the Lakers fans are most familiar with in the regular season!
