Chapter 264 Battle against the Lakers
From the beginning of the third quarter, the match fell into a heated stage. Both sides knew that now was the time to fight to the death. It would not be as easy as the first half. Everyone would show their absolute strength to fight.

Not only did the Lakers regard this game as a prediction of the Western Conference Finals, even Xing Tian told the players that as long as they win this game, they will have the strength to enter the second round of the playoffs, and even go further.

After hearing Xing Tian's words, Zhang Lili also agreed very much. He also attached great importance to this game. This is a test of the strength of the Chinese team. As long as they pass this test, they can prove to the outside world that the Chinese team is not weak.

Xing Tian held the basketball and turned away from Johnson three times in a row, but Pau Gasol's defense was very timely and he didn't give Xing Tian a chance to score. It's hard to imagine a white player being so active in defense.

This is also the result of their summer training. During the summer training, there was no tactical coach, and the training was based on the player's self-awareness. Gasol also knew his weaknesses, so he worked hard on defense.

Gasol was still a defensive loophole in the Lakers last season. This summer he has refined his defense, but it is useless against Xing Tian. Xing Tian directly pulled up in front of Gasol.

This is also one of Xing Tian's trainings in the summer, especially after McGrady became his teammate, Xing Tian's strikes are more accurate, which is taught by McGrady.

Now the atmosphere in the Chinese team is very good, everyone asks each other for advice, and there is no hiding.As long as you have the ability to learn, everyone can come up with their own tricks.

Sun Dasheng and Zhu Laoba were learning dry pulling, but after learning for a summer, they couldn't find the trick at all, so they could only play with their own things silently.

"Swipe!" Xing Tian scored for the first time in the second half. This score seemed very easy, but players who are familiar with basketball know that Xing Tian's move requires a lot of proficiency to complete.

McGrady's move is not something anyone can learn if he wants to. In order to learn this move well, Xing Tian practiced at least 500 pull-ups every day. At the beginning, the undefended shooting rate was even less than 50.00%.

Jackson on the sidelines was also stunned. Although he believed that Xing Tian might grow up, he didn't expect to be able to make such a sharp scoring movement. This is simply another McGrady.

Seeing Xing Tian like this, Kobe laughed instead.Fighting without an opponent is very lonely, and a game with an opponent is a really fun game. Kobe has been waiting for this day for a long time.

When he was playing against the Spurs, the reason why Kobe was always inactive was because the Spurs were not in charge of guards, so they didn't have that kind of feeling towards Biao. Now that he has Xing Tian, ​​Kobe has found that feeling.

Just after Johnson passed halftime, Kobe asked Johnson for the ball.Looking at Kobe's excited eyes, Johnson passed the ball directly to Kobe without any hesitation. This kind of eyes can often be seen by Johnson during summer training.

Knowing Kobe Bryant, Sun Dasheng would definitely use Xing Tian's scoring method to fight back, but the opponent didn't change direction and broke through him directly, and then jumped up near the free throw line.

When the two played training games in the summer, you hit me one, and I will return you one right away, and I will return it to you in the same way that you score. Only the two of them like to play this kind of face-slapping.

Kobe's dry pull also had a little backward movement. Sun Dasheng was broken by half a step, and he gave up defending very simply, and could only watch helplessly as the opponent scored.

If Sun Dasheng catches up, it will basically give Kobe a foul. Kobe's movements are very coherent, and he has already perfected this scoring method in the summer.

"Great Sage, you can't defend him according to his habits!" After receiving Sun Dasheng's baseline serve, Xing Tian said something to Sun Dasheng, and Xing Tian kept telling Sun Dasheng his experience.

Originally, defense was Sun Dasheng's housekeeping skill. Xing Tian had no qualifications to tell Sun Dasheng at all, but Xing Tian couldn't stand it anymore, so he could only mutter a few words, but obviously Sun Dasheng didn't care at all.

"Well, I see!" Although Sun Dasheng heard what Xing Tian said, what he was thinking in his heart was not what Xing Tian said, but why Kobe didn't play according to his usual sacks. Sun Dasheng had already fallen into an endless loop.

The deeper you study a person, the more you will find that what this person does is unreasonable.Because you already feel that you know the other person very well, and this is what happened to Sun Dasheng now.

After Xing Tian came back, he wanted to pass the ball to his teammates, but Sun Dasheng's appearance was obviously not suitable for him. McGrady had scored the 23 points he planned for himself in the first half. .

Garnett rolled his eyes at Xing Tian, ​​as if he was saying that you should hit the ball yourself, Kobe even provoked him like this, so he should fight back by himself.In the end, it was his teammates who silently supported Xing Tian, ​​which made Xing Tian very grateful.

In desperation, Xing Tian called Yao Ming and asked Yao Ming to pick and roll for him. After the screen, Xing Tian entered the restricted area again. It would consume too much energy to break through with his own movements.

Kareem also faced the situation that Gasol faced just now, but Kareem chose to take a step forward to prevent Xing Tian from making a jumper, but Xing Tian passed Kareem directly with his feet, and after entering the penalty area, he made a one-handed throw Got 2 points.

"Yes, it's great!" Kobe praised Xing Tian when he and Xing Tian returned to defense. This season, he kept hiding it, which made Kobe very uncomfortable, as if his brother had that ability, but he was unwilling to express it. come out.

In particular, Kobe told the media that Xing Tian was very strong this season, but Xing Tian played quite well, without any superstar demeanor, which was a slap in the face of Kobe.

"So-so, No. [-] in the world!" Xing Tian scored twice in a row, and his mentality was a little swayed. In his opinion, his training effect this summer is still good, and he can definitely start sprinting for the All-Star.

"It's us to win!" Kobe replied proudly. In his opinion, the number one in the world must be Jordan, and the second is himself. Xing Tian is now boasting about himself.

One summer, everyone has accepted that Jordan is the strongest player in the world, and the league's exaggeration is still very powerful. Every day, there are highlights like Jordan, and even Xing Tian has been brainwashed.

"Sorry, we're still ahead!" Xing Tian shook his head, never expecting Kobe to take his humble words seriously.This also aroused Xing Tian's fighting spirit, and he wanted to fight this guy.

Watching Johnson dribble over, Xing Tian naturally couldn't continue chatting with Kobe, and walked over to defend Johnson seriously.But Johnson immediately passed the ball to Kobe, and Sun Dasheng was also ready.

But Sun Dasheng once again allowed Kobe to score, and he could make a very simple change of direction and enter the penalty area.Then with his back against Garnett, who came over to make up the defense, he turned around and jumped outside the penalty area, and leaned back to get a two-pointer again.

Garnett's long arm did not interfere with Kobe at all. The two collided countless times in the summer, and everyone was very familiar with each other.

It is picturesque, Xing Tian can only use these words to describe it. Kobe couldn't do such a coherent movement in summer, but now it is very simple to do. It seems that Kobe has not been idle this month.

"Sorry!" Sun Dasheng was very embarrassed and said to Garnett who was defending. This was his own defensive responsibility, but he let his teammates bear the result of his missed defense.

"What are you talking about, it's my responsibility to make up defense!" Garnett laughed, not minding at all.In the Timberwolves, he definitely doesn't have such a good temper, which is also related to the current atmosphere of the Chinese team.

When he was in the Timberwolves, it is estimated that Garnett had already sprayed manure on his teammates.Now this little trash talking prince, after coming to the Chinese, his temper has improved a lot.

In this game, Sun Dasheng didn't defend Kobe very well, and Zhang Lili also looked into his eyes.After hesitating for a moment, he still asked Hu Weidong to replace Sun Dasheng. Sun Dasheng has defensive ability, but today he fell into a strange circle first.

Hu Weidong, who was replaced, was still stunned for a moment, but the only task Zhang Lili gave him was to entangle Kobe and prevent Kobe from receiving the ball. Hu Weidong can still do this task if he works hard.

At the same time, Zhang Lili also made a hand gesture to Xing Tian to prevent the pass to Kobe. This is the way Zhang Lili came up with to prevent Sun Dasheng from being unable to defend Kobe. This is the most helpless move.

After Sun Dasheng left the field, it also proved the failure of the Lakers' defense.The corner of Kobe's mouth was raised upwards, Kobe is very confident in this point, no one in this league can guard against him.

After Xing Tian took the ball and scored in a simple way this time, when Johnson wanted to pass the ball to Kobe, Xing Tian came up to interfere. Johnson had no way to pass the ball to Kobe and had to pass it to Baylor.

But Kobe didn't give up. He made a circle from the bottom corner and still received the basketball from Baylor.There were more than 8 seconds left in the time, and Hu Weidong also relaxed a lot.

But Hu Weidong hesitated just now, Kobe broke through directly, Hu Weidong completely guarded Kobe.Under the natural reaction, Hu Weidong could only hold Kobe back.But Kobe jumped up directly, and the basketball in his hand was thrown out by him with one hand.

The basketball clanged and didn't bounce.But the referee's whistle blew, and Hu Weidong's face turned pale, and he almost let go of his big mistake.

Hu Weidong's current position in the Chinese team is very embarrassing, and he has become Sun Dasheng and Hill's substitute, so he cherishes the time he has to play, and he is relieved after looking down at Zhang Lili and saying nothing.

However, this game is obviously not his home game. Kobe and Xing Tian continued to play, and they showed their energy in the third quarter. Hu Weidong is also used to it, so he can only complete his task with great vigor.

The entire Staples was in joy, the two favorites were fighting, and the fans shouted hoarsely, but their emotions remained high.

The bigger Kobe is, the happier he is. It was the first time he played against Xing Tian on such a big stage. I really hope that every time he plays against the Chinese in the future, he can fight like this.

Xing Tian never imagined that he and Kobe would have a [-]-[-] match in the game, which also made Xing Tian more confident in himself.
