Chapter 173 Traditional Shooting Guard
Xu Tian didn't expect the fans at the scene to celebrate for the Clippers players. He took the serve with a bit of astonishment, and slowly advanced past halftime.

George and TJ Warren stood in the left and right corners, responsible for pulling the Clippers' Pierce and Griffin apart.This arrangement is a bit of a waste of George's talent, but in order to stagger the attack time of the core players and improve the offensive system, this is a sacrifice that has to be made.

Kobe received the ball from Xu Tian, ​​turned around and singled Redick.

Xu Tian and George have strong shooting ability, so that Griffin and Paul who are in charge of defense dare not leave half a step, and cannot help Redick on the defensive end.

After all, Redick is a white shooter. Whether it is moving speed or strength, he is much worse than Kobe, who is in charge of defense. There is nothing to do on the defensive end.

Jordan is the league's top center. The offensive end is dominated by assists and scoring. Although the defensive end has a poor sense of position, he is full of deterrence with his super athletic ability.

Kobe stopped the ball at a distance of 12 feet, ignoring the top defense of Redick, turned around, and pulled directly from the spot.

Fadeaway Shot!

Two points hit!

Jordan got the ball and quickly sent it to Paul.

Knowing that the Lakers are good at playing fast-paced offense and defense, Paul deliberately took the half court slowly to suppress the rhythm on the court.

Both Griffin and Jordan stayed at the top of the arc, using the most varied double screens to block the defensive Xu Tian, ​​creating opportunities for Paul to display his offensive talents.

George was responsible for defending Griffin, quickly switched to Paul, and immediately filled the defensive loophole that had just appeared.

Pat Riley once said that the ideal state of basketball is five all-round players with a height of nearly two meters playing together. Although the Lakers have not yet achieved it, they are already very close.

Xu Tian took advantage of the situation to switch to Griffin.This time he learned his lesson and stood between Griffin and Paul, using his strong stealing ability to block the connection between the two in advance.

Kobe didn't have to chase Redick originally, but driven by a strong competitive spirit, he still took over the most difficult task.

Xu Tian stretched out his long arms to block Paul's possible passing routes.

Paul calmly looked at the dark shadows around him, his brain was running fast, looking for opportunities to play the ball easily.

Jordan became his choice.

Tyson Chandler has a strong sense of defensive position, but his legs are not even as thick as women's, and his weak lower body restricts his further development.But this also brings benefits, that is, agile movement.

The basketball was intercepted by Tyson Chandler again, and the ball was disturbed by an external force, changing its course of travel.

Xu Tian took the lead by virtue of his great speed advantage, the ape arm Qingshu got the basketball, and then quickly gave the ball to Kobe.

After Kobe ruptured his Achilles tendon, he was not as fast as before. He dribbled quickly and was overtaken by Paul and Redick. The opportunity for fast break turned into a positional battle.

Xu Tian and George were outside the 45-degree three-point line on the left and right. Their strong shooting ability forced the Clippers' defense to expand outward, leaving Kobe a chance to play singles with the ball.

TJ Warren is a young player with much better physical strength than Xu Tian. He tirelessly moved from the weak side to the strong side, and then from the strong side to the weak side, slipping Pierce who was defending him out of breath.

Reluctantly, the years urge people to grow old, and they can see the world with a breeze in their sleeves.

Kobe can't do anything else, singles with the ball are easy, his shoulder feints are connected with flexible footwork, and he successfully shakes Redick away, and continues to shoot back jumpers.

It's so red and purple, it's so hot!
The on-site host has always broadcast the tone as plain as water, but at this moment he also let go of his reserve and broadcast Kobe's score with an enhanced tone.

The fans at the scene were more excited than the announcer, and the cheers that shook the mountains and rivers came one after another, shaking Xu Tian's heart - even if he dunked a beautiful dunk, he had never received such loud cheers.

Kobe fully entered the game state, ignored his wife's cheers on the sidelines, and pretended not to hear the noise of the scene, and took the initiative to come to the top of the arc to defend Paul, who was advancing with the ball.

When Paul saw the defender replaced by Kobe, the expression on his face relaxed, and he bent over to dribble and started a single.

Kobe showed the defensive energy he had when he was young, his posture was standard and graceful, and his small movements were concealed and in place.

Paul is a master of small moves, and now he can only endure the dark losses. He slightly raised his right elbow to push Kobe away, and quickly broke into the penalty area.

Kobe has experienced the 90s when his elbow opened the way, and he is very experienced in this kind of quick follow-up defense after being out of position. When Paul didn't throw the ball in his hand, he blocked it behind him.

Xu Tian reacted faster than Redick, and quickly moved to the top of the arc, intercepting the jumping basketball.

All the players on the field were rushing towards the Clippers half court, Paul did not forget to say something to Kobe beside him, "Blocks from behind are not blocks!"

Xu Tian dribbled the ball to Pierce, who wanted to steal it, and quickly passed the ball to Kobe, who was on the left side, so that he could continue to attack with a hot hand.

Kobe likes the old-school offense, and naturally slowed down the offensive and defensive rhythm on the court, allowing the rest of the Lakers and Clippers to have a breathing space.

Pierce is also a veteran, and he could no longer follow the energetic TJ Warren. He stood still in front of Xu Tian, ​​and symbolically stretched out his right hand to defend.

Kobe couldn't pass the ball when he felt extremely bad, and he couldn't pass the ball when he felt hot. Paul, who played 183 singles with his back, relied on his 15 cm height advantage to beat the small ones, and forced him to the free throw line.

Little Jordan knew that Kobe would not pass the ball, and Tyson Chandler, who dropped to the basket, quickly made up defense to Kobe at the free throw line.

Kobe used the footsteps engraved into his bones to turn over, and seeing Jordan make up, he still did not change his original intention, and shot a super difficult fadeaway jumper.

Just like his theory fabricated by netizens, this kind of shot only makes money and doesn't lose money.

clang!
Tyson Chandler easily closed the board, grabbed the ball with both hands and slammed for a slam dunk, easily scoring 2 points and 1 rebound.

Although Kobe did not make the shot, he did not forget to laugh and talk trash to Jordan and Paul, "A defense without three people is not a defense. You should put up some strength!"

This is Kobe. If it were someone else, Paul would have turned his face.But at this moment, he just took the serve with a smile.

Seeing that the field was heating up, Griffin came to the pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, trying to create offensive opportunities for Paul.

Both George and Kobe let their defenders take half a step, ready to switch defenses quickly at any time.

Paul glanced at the basket, moved laterally outside the three-point line, grabbed the half-step space given by Kobe and George, and directly made a jumper.

Swish!
Two points lost, three points responded!
The fans at the scene began to shout Kobe's name, hoping that he could continue to single Paul.

TJ Warren, who served the ball, knew that it was Christmas tonight, so he didn't spoil the fans, and directly served the ball to Kobe, who was in hot form.

Kobe Bryant dribbles across half court.In his eyes at this time, except for him, there are Clippers players on the field, ignoring all the starting dribble singles.

This is his most familiar way of attack.
