As the winner of last season's finals, the Eagles "as usual" got the chance to play the Christmas game at home.The Phillips Center also became the most watched venue on Christmas afternoon.

Because it is the afternoon game, it is slightly different from the players' usual game time, so the players need to spend more time warming up.At two o'clock in the afternoon, the fans just began to come and go, and the Eagles players were doing simple shooting drills on the court.

In contrast to their opponents, the Lakers, the team bus slowly drove into the underground parking lot of the Phillips Center four or 10 minutes after the Eagles started training.

Since it is a regular season, it will not be disturbed by various "little moves" like the finals.However, although it was relatively late for a long time, the attitude of the Lakers towards the game is still very serious. After Phil Jiexun said a few words in the locker room, the whole team changed into training uniforms and came to the other side of the court to start. Shooting drills.

Many people between the two teams have a lot of connections, but the grievances and grievances of last season's finals are still there, and they didn't say hello to each other.

When winning the ball, it can be seen that both sides attach great importance to this game. Garnett and Gasol are all focused on the referee's movements and take off with all their strength.

Last season's Finals was played by Garnett. Gasol encountered a lot of criticism. American fans called him "Spanish Rabbit" and Chinese fans called him "Sister-in-law". I can't get rid of these infamy.

One step ahead, Gasol won the jump ball, smoothly allocated the ball to Ariza, who passed to Bryant.

As soon as Kobe received the ball, Paul led the defense. Facing Paul, who had strong stealing ability and was still a bad shot, Kobe didn't dare to be careless.

After halftime, Kobe dribbled the ball horizontally and gave Paul an elbow. Paul took a step back in pain, but immediately stuck it back.

At this time, Battier should have switched defenses, but Paul, who had suffered a dark loss, got a little better under the agitation of the atmosphere and directly challenged Kobe.

Seeing Paul posting over his own strength, Kobe flicked the ball and passed the ball to Odom who was standing outside the left three-point line, and then "pushed" Paul to a low position, easily occupying a favorable position, and then decisively received the ball, easily A turnaround jumper hit.

The opening game was a one-on-one match between the leading players. There is no doubt that this is more in line with the expectations of the fans!

Back on the defensive end, Kobe also took the initiative to face Paul.Compared to Paul's complete overreach against Kobe, Kobe's actions have the intention of endorsing Fisher. After all, Fisher was abused by Paul in the finals last season!

The rhythm of the ball was constantly changing in Paul's hands. Kobe's eyes were burning, staring at Paul.

Kobe went up to press, and Paul pulled the ball with his left hand, but it seemed that he didn't do it well, and the ball almost got out of control.

Kobe put pressure again, and his whole body was completely attached to Paul, and his right hand was already taking advantage of the situation to steal the ball; at this moment, Kobe felt his chest was hit, and Paul used the space opened by the impact to complete a change. Xiang, immediately after an acceleration, he was thrown behind him.

Facing Odom who came up to defend, Paul made an emergency stop and directly scored the ball. Dior caught the ball under the basket and scored easily. (2:2)

The Lakers attacked and the ball was thrown into the penalty area. Gasol caught the ball and slashed a few times. With a turn of his body, Garnett's defense was forced to sideways, and he hit the cricket.

The Eagles launched a counterattack. After a few passes, Paul broke into the inside and attracted the defense of the two. He hit the ground and bounced to Joe Johnson who was next to him. Joe Johnson jumped up and shot without any hesitation. Come Odom block from the side!

Kobe on the outside line picked up the ball and rushed forward. Battier couldn't catch up with him at all. Facing the opportunity of fast break performance, Kobe gliding and dunking, surprised everyone! (2:6)

Paul took the ball across the half court, raised his hand and made a gesture, Diaw, Battier and Garnett immediately pulled to the left, Joe Johnson ran out from the left, Garnett's position was just right Blocking Kobe who was chasing him, Joe Johnson got away from Kobe's defense, and came to the right side alone. Seeing that Gasol, who was defending against him, was relentless, he swayed from the bottom line to the inside line, and when he stepped into the three-second zone , then suddenly jumped up, stayed in the air for a while, and waited until Gasol, who was chasing the cap behind him, fell down, then flicked the basketball in his hand and wiped the board into the basket. (4:6)

On the way back to defense, Paul reached out to give Joe Johnson a high-five and shouted, "Strike!"

The offensive and defensive transition, Gasol and Odom completed the internal pass, Garnett showed a dpoy-level defense, interfered with Odom's shot and also took off the defensive rebound, which was handed over to Paul at the first time.

Paul held the ball across the half court, facing Fisher's defense, and dribbled the ball continuously and quickly.

呲!

Suddenly a start accelerated, Fisher immediately retreated and then slid to defend, but his body was blocked.

When Fisher got around Garnett, Paul had swerved past Gasol, and the Lakers' defense had been thrown into disarray, with Odom's stop completely missing Diaw, who caught the ball at the rim , Kobe behind did not foul under the balance, but watched Dior send the ball to the basket.Kobe in this game was very different.The first ball in the opening game, with his previous temperament, basically wouldn't fall low, it must be a show of skill to eat Paul; and this ball, replaced by Kobe in the past, no matter what, he would foul and fight!

It's just that the sense of oppression brought by the Eagles made Kobe choose a more rational way of playing to seek the possibility of defeating the Eagles.

Going back to the offensive end, the Lakers once again implemented the triangle offensive tactic, creating a chance for Kobe to eat Battier alone; receiving the ball, standing up, suddenly left and right shoulders, Battier unconsciously took half a step back.

Kobe jumped up and shot a three-pointer in a cool and unrestrained way.

"Swipe!" The ball crashed into the net.

Immediately, the Eagles also responded.After halftime, Paul directed the running of his teammates, broke into the inside and passed the ball to Joe Johnson outside the three-point line. The latter did not make Paul's pass useless, and the basketball went into the basket accurately. (9:9)

Offensive and defensive transitions, the Lakers' earth rights finally came to Kobe's hands after continuous conduction.

The rhythm of the dribble was fast and slow, and the ball passed back and forth from Kobe's crotch. After a little testing, Kobe turned his back again.

"Bang!" Kobe hit Battier behind him with his back, and Battier could only grit his teeth against the black mamba.

Battier's tenacious defense prevented Kobe from finding good offensive opportunities, but his defensive disadvantages were still obvious.

Suddenly, his shoulders shook, Battier's center of gravity hesitated, and his body shape changed unconsciously. At this moment, Kobe turned over and fell back.

Battier immediately moved his feet and rushed up, but he was still a little slow, and could only watch Kobe throw the ball.

But this time luck was good, Kobe missed the shot and Garnett took off the defensive rebound directly.

Looking back, the Eagles once again used Paul's advantage over Fisher to disrupt the Lakers' defense, creating room for Garnett to score easily.The latter made a mid-range shot and hit it accurately! (11:9)

The scores of the two sides rose alternately. After the first quarter, the Eagles led the Lakers by 31 points at 28:3.

However, at the beginning of the second quarter, when the two sides faced off with a rotation lineup, the Eagles played a wave of 11:3 attacks under the leadership of Shannon Brown, widening the point difference in one fell swoop.

The partner next to him has changed from Barea, who is as good at assault as himself, and Tucker, who has average shooting ability, to Chalmers and Batum. The biggest beneficiary is Shannon Brown, the eagle's bench gangster this season. Now he is an invited guest of the league's "Slam Dunk Contest", and he released his enthusiasm in the game, using his impact to continuously ravage Vujacic's defense.

The situation was not good, Phil Jackson replaced Kobe Bryant to control the situation; Ke Yan then arranged for Sefolosha to replace Chalmers, Shannon Brown changed to the No. [-] position, and the task of serial attack was still handed over to Batum .

Sefolosha and Batum are both good perimeter defenders. Although Shannon Brown is not very experienced in the game, his physical fitness is quite good and can make up for some problems. In addition, the birdman Anderson on the inside, the Eagles' The overall defense is quite good. Using the strength of the team to limit Kobe's counterattack has a remarkable effect.

However, Sefolosha, who just played, was a little "cold". He and Batum missed three-pointers one after another, which also prevented the team from opening up the point difference.

Phil Jackson reluctantly replaced Gasol and Odom to help the team approach the score; the debut of the two insiders echoed Kobe's offense, and the Lakers began to exert their strength!

At this time, it was Ke Yan who made some command mistakes in manpower scheduling, and did not replace Garnett in time, and the point difference between the two sides was slowly forced to close!

By the time Ke Yan switched back to Garnett in the middle of the second quarter, the point difference was only 4 points!

Fortunately, after returning to the court, Paul made a great contribution. With the help of Garnett's cover, Paul went directly to the basket. Facing Gasol's supplementary defense, he not only completed the pull-bar goal, but also caused the latter's Thug foul.

Paul, who lost his center of gravity, fell directly to the bottom line of the media area and knocked over a bunch of camera equipment, which also worried the coaching staff and fans at the scene.

But fortunately, it's all flawed, just a little bit of pain is fine!Paul also quickly stood in front of the free throw line and hit a free throw.

这个2+1还只是开始，第二节最后的4分钟比赛毫无疑问是属于保罗的，4分钟内保罗用7分3次助攻2次抢断的出色表现让老鹰队重新建立起9分的领先优势。

In the first half of the game alone, Paul scored 15 points, 9 assists and 3 steals. This game with a high degree of attention has been played well, and his more exciting performance than usual games has attracted more fans.

Garnett, who "plays dead" on weekdays, also played the most exciting game recently. The stats of 10+6 in the half are acceptable, but more importantly, Garnett suppressed Gasol and Odom, and interfered with Kobe many times on the defensive end.

If every game can show the state of this game, Garnett will get 3 million for 4800 years, and the boss is likely to be willing to give it.

Of course, don't forget that Ke Yan is currently in a contract year, and he will also renew his contract.

(I forgot to post it yesterday: Happy New Year to all the "food and clothing parents", and a special thanks to the book friend "Fuck you can't have characters", my brother's reward is really awesome!)
