Chapter 115 Mutual Checks and Balances

Bowen's malicious foul obviously irritated Kobe a little bit. Standing a little inside the three-point line, Kobe grabbed the ball high with one hand and turned his back to him.

Slowly bowing his waist, he turned around suddenly, and faced him immediately, his four sharp eyes met, and strong sparks burst out.

Bowen grabbed Kobe's waist with one hand and spat trash talk at him.

A cold light burst out from Kobe's angry eyes, his still body finally moved, he took a right step, and then the ball landed, and then with the help of the bouncing ball, he crossed his right hand, turned halfway and then dashed to the left , one hand ruthlessly placed an elbow on Bowen's chest, then stepped on his left foot, and using the lateral force of his left shoulder, he hit Bowen's chest again, suddenly, suddenly accelerated, and rushed forward forcefully basket.

Bowen took two elbows and took two steps backwards. The huge pain in his chest and the resulting shortness of breath made him speechless, and he tried his best to stick it up again.

Kobe's forward posture stopped again, he received the ball, squatted, twisted, and made another beautiful lateral turn, kicking back completely widened the distance between him and Bowen, and hit a backward jumper! (42:39)

The Spurs teammates looked at Bowen, who had suffered a dark loss. The latter stretched out his hand to signal, took a few deep breaths, and then ran forward.

In the battle again, it was still passed to Duncan. After receiving the ball from a low position, he turned around in the middle, jumped up with Diop and missed a throw with his right hand. Taking a step, he made a forced shot across Diop and Anderson who was defending, and hit the board into the basket. (44:39).

The team lost a home game, and Duncan is also under great pressure. As a leader, he must stand up and set an example!

Ke Yan is under a lot of psychological pressure, but he can't adjust. The team has achieved the ultimate in defending Duncan and is even a bit "anti-basketball".In this case, you can still hit the ball abruptly. It can only be said that the superstar is playing with "Wushuang" on!

But on the other hand, didn't Kobe also start "Rage"?

The Lakers attacked, Odom passed the ball to Kobe for singles, and the latter faced Bowen with an emergency stop jump shot, avoiding the block and hitting, the camera recorded Popovich's "FUXK" on the sidelines.

The team's defensive system, the loophole is in the middle distance, Kobe is in this area to score continuously, stably, and efficiently, and he is not soft-hearted at all!

The Spurs themselves have this kind of virtue, knowing that the Lakers' defense is weak, and now they are still beating Duncan to death, chasing the Lakers inside to eat.Duncan catches the ball from the low post on the right and hits with his back. Anderson let go of Bowen's defense and put pressure on Duncan.

Duncan noticed Anderson and passed the ball out of the perimeter in time. Bowen made a three-pointer from the bottom corner and missed!

So far in the series, the standard 3D Bowen has become "no 3 no D", and he is no longer good at playing under Kobe's "destruction"!

Anderson and Diop teamed up to trap Duncan, allowing the retracted Butler to take off the rebound. The latter tried to pass the ball to Odom, but Ginobili blocked the ball in the air, and the Argentine went straight to the basket. Taking off against Anderson, with the help of the impact from the full speed, he intends to complete the dunk!

Anderson's raised big hand hit Ginobili's neck in the air. Ginobili's head instinctively swung backwards, and he swung the basketball that had been raised to the highest point, and hammered it with a mighty force of a thousand drop.

"Clang!"

Ginobili and Anderson both fell to the ground, and the referee's whistle sounded. This is an undisputed 2+1!

Although Ke Yan also arranged for Butler and Odom to assist Kobe on the court, and although Parker also made great contributions to the game, in the second quarter, the game gradually evolved into Kobe singled out Duncan and Ginobi profit.

Ke Yan and Popovich are also trying to adjust, but both sides are extremely restricted on the other side on the defensive end. Except for their incomprehensible personal abilities, no one can find an easy way to score!

At 51:46, returning to the locker room with a 5-point lead, Popovich was not happy at all. Although they had the upper hand, Kobe's terrifying scoring ability amazed him. This is still the home of the Spurs !Who can guarantee that Kobe will not become more bloodthirsty when he returns to the Staples Center?

In the locker room of the Lakers, Ke Yan is adjusting the team's tactics.

The current situation is not good for the Lakers. Let’s continue, not to mention that Kobe’s "blue" can't stand the "furious" all the time. If the top three insiders don't get a good rotation, they don't need Duncan to oppress them. up!

This time also exposed another weakness of the Lakers. Ke Yan himself is too young and lacks experience in the playoffs. Views" think tank.All the tactical arrangements and adjustments are all on Keyan himself.

"Michael, we need you to provide more fire support to Kobe on the offensive end!" After thinking about it, Ke Yan decided to replace Anderson with Finley.

Finley is the Lakers player with second-best playoff experience after Kobe Bryant, and the Spurs are an opponent he is very familiar with. During his time with the Mavericks, Finley has become one of the protagonists of the "War of Bulls and Horses" countless times!

Kobe restrained the Spurs' defense, Odom stood at the top of the arc, he could play hard by himself, or he could deal cards at the top of the arc, Diop stood at the horns and made the first off-ball pick-and-roll for Butler who was winding from the bottom line to the top line, and then went down The bottom line made a second off-ball pick-and-roll for Finley who was circling the bottom line. . . . . .

Ke Yan adjusted the team's offensive tactics and running positions according to the lineup on the field. It is impossible to temporarily design too complicated, otherwise the opponent will not be stunned, and he will be confused first!

The Lakers have made personnel adjustments, while the leading Spurs are still "responding to all changes with the same".However, when he saw the changes in the Lakers lineup, Popovich was relieved. He could see that Ke Yan felt powerless to the stalemate in the first half and adjusted first.

Although adjustments have been made, Ke Yan just made the lineup less extreme, and the advantages of lineup and size are still there~.Conversely, the Spurs still have the advantage of being more mobile!

On the first offense in the second half, Kobe and Odom pick-and-roll, squeezed into the penalty area and completed hand-to-hand cooperation with Finley while blocking the chasing Parker. Finley caught the ball to the bottom line, turned around, adjusted, and shot a three-pointer , Strike the iron!

Although the goal was missed, the tactical cooperation was played out.Ke Yan's pupils dilated unconsciously, and then recovered his calm demeanor.

The Spurs attacked in the first round, and Parker broke into the basket with the help of Nesterovic's pick-and-roll. Kobe interfered with his forced layup and failed to make a shot.Complained to the referee immediately, the referee shook his head firmly, no foul!

The Lakers' first wave of scoring in the second half came quickly. Odom forced Nesterovic to cause a foul and made two free throws (51:48).

The Spurs attacked. Ginobili played a pick-and-roll with Duncan and then split the ball. Duncan singled Diop face-to-face. He used his own footsteps to shake Diop away. Protect the rebound!

Both sides are starting to work hard on the defensive end!
