If losing to the Mavericks in a strong dialogue is something everyone can accept, then an upset loss to the Warriors will suddenly increase the outside world's doubts about the Hawks.

The number one position in the league is too conspicuous. As much praise as the Eagles received before, they are now receiving so much ridicule.

Counting the other fans who have grievances with the Hawks, first of all are Duncan fans and Nowitzki fans. Garnett fans look down on the "softie" Nowitzki, and at the same time forcefully target Duncan. They are dissatisfied in various ways. The key is to add

Nate's talent is really not that good; then the Hawks in the Western Conference refused Kobe's "surrender", and the Eastern Conference suppressed James and was unable to turn around, directly having a bad relationship with the two top players; finally, there was the Pistons, the rivals in the same region, who were

The Hawks "trapped" the Rockets with the eighth pick, etc...

Don't just say that you can seal things, one general will achieve great results! The history of the rise of the Eagles must be the "history of blood and tears" of many other teams. In this case, it must be a "big tree that attracts wind", and something is wrong with the team.

It is normal for your feet to hurt when someone grabs you.

Not being criticized is mediocre!

On the night of the loss to the Warriors, there was no time for any rest, so the entire Hawks team boarded a special plane without stopping. After a lot of hard work, they hurried to Los Angeles to challenge the Los Angeles Lakers.

This was also a focus battle. The summer negotiations between the two teams were exposed by reporters afterwards. "The Eagles had almost met the Lakers' asking price, and in the end the deal was stopped by Ke Yan, who was far away in China." This directly made many people hate Ke Yan.

Lakers fans who are somewhat nostalgic never want him to come back.

It is also very interesting to say that Ke Yan's "rejection" of Kobe Bryant is obviously beneficial to the Lakers, but Lakers fans still criticized Ke Yan, probably out of frustration that "I negotiated a deal with you, but you rejected me."

A wealthy family must be so proud!

The Eagles have an outstanding record and have received many broadcasts on CCTV. For this game, CCTV still arranged a duo of Yang Jian and Yang Yi to commentate. This is almost the best pair in the domestic basketball commentary industry.

"The story that happened this summer is destined to come to a conclusion today. Like the majority of fans and friends, I am also looking forward to the final result. Will Ke Yan prove his unique vision, or will Kobe show his own value and respond to him?

Let’s wait and see!” Yang Jian explained passionately.

"The Lakers' starting lineup tonight is Kwame Brown, Lamar Odom, Radmanovic, Kobe Bryant and Smushparker. Compared with last season, the Lakers' performance at the start of the game has improved.

After Ke Yan's influence on the team slowly dissipated, Phil Jackson chose more players that suited his triangle offensive system, which allowed the Lakers to get a better start than last season."

"In this game, the Eagles' starting lineup welcomed the return of Diaw. This can be regarded as 'taking orders when the army is defeated, and being ordered to be in danger'. Because we all know that the Eagles' performance in the last two games has been somewhat ups and downs, and they both lost.

The ball is over.

Diaw's return can immediately relieve the pressure on the team's lineup rotation. There are not many changes in other positions, including Anthony Parker at the small forward position, but Ke Yan still chooses to believe in him."

Garnett and Kwame Brown stood in the center circle, and as the whistle blew, the referee threw the ball in his hand into the air.

"At the beginning of the game, Garnett easily won the jump ball, and Paul held the ball!"

The Lakers retreated quickly, and Smushparker immediately followed Paul.

Diaw immediately mentioned outside the three-point line. After receiving the pass from Paul, he turned around casually and pretended to pass it to Joe Johnson. However, when the Lakers' defensive focus expanded, he changed the passing route and passed the ball very freely.

Sent to Garnett.

Faced with the opportunity to score easily, Garnett did not take credit and made a shooting motion to contain Kwame Brown. In fact, he made a ground pass and sent the ball to Anthony Parker who cut to the basket and the latter made an easy layup.

Score.(0:2)

"Beautiful offense! This is the value of Diaw. His passing ball can smoothly lubricate the team's offense, and Garnett is also using actions to support teammates who are involved in controversy. This is what a leader should do!"

After Smushparker passed the ball to Kobe, he pulled it to the other side, and Kobe stopped at the top of the arc to the right.

Joe Johnson was standing in front of Kobe, his hand already stretched out in front of Kobe.

Kobe used his left foot as a support point, half-turned to the right, stood diagonally in front of Joe Johnson, and protected the ball well.

Odom suddenly ran over and leaned toward Joe Johnson, while Diaw immediately leaned toward Kobe behind him.

Kobe suddenly moved and swayed to the left. After Joe Johnson subconsciously moved, he stepped forward with his right foot, which is the most powerful.

Like a gust of wind, and like a bolt of lightning, Kobe jumped through the gap between Joe Johnson and Diaw.

After slapping the ball low, Kobe kicked off his left foot, his body suddenly reached full speed and stepped into the three-second zone!

Garnett took a step forward and raised his hands.

Kobe picked up the ball and took the first step in an obvious three-step layup posture!

Second step! Kobe tilted his body and took a step to the left.

Garnett took an important step to the right and shifted all his weight to the right.

Kobe's body suddenly tilted to the right, and the momentum of his body to the left was completely offset by the sudden movement of his body.

A beautiful European step passed by, Kobe and Garnett passed by, held up the ball with his right hand, and gently pushed it forward.

The ball was thrown upwards in a gentle arc, rubbed against the backboard, then changed its downward direction and fell into the basket.

"Yes!!!" The fans at the scene cheered for Kobe's "picturesque" singles.

Ke Yan gently shook his hand, pretending to be relaxed, but showing a hint of surprise.

Using the pick-and-roll, Paul was basically not disturbed by Smushpark's defensive pressure. He almost passed the opponent's defense in just one step, causing Odom to have to give up Garnett's point to delay Paul.

Of course, Paul can get past Smushparker's defense one step after the pick-and-roll. In addition to his own route selection and breakthrough speed, the high quality of Garnett's pick-and-roll is also an important factor.

Just like a father blocking his son, Smushparker is completely blocked behind him, leaving him with no way to get around the pick-and-roll, and even his speed advantage cannot be used.

Seeing Odom's delay to his side, Paul, as the league's new generation passing master, did not hesitate at all and directly passed the ball to Garnett who was cutting inside.

After receiving the pass, Garnett was also very decisive. Before Brown, who was pulled to the outside by Diaw, returned to the basket, he directly attacked the basket and used a two-handed dunk as a response to Kobe's shot just now!

"Bang!"

"Beautiful offense, Garnett responded immediately to Kobe. Paul and Garnett's pick-and-roll cooperation is already the most reliable offense for the Hawks!"

Garnett's contribution is not only on the offensive end. When Smush Parker and Odom are playing pick-and-rolls in the middle, Garnett relies on his excellent positioning awareness and lateral speed to almost block Parker and Odom alone.

Odom's two breakthrough routes.

Odom's shooting percentage this season is as high as 53%, and he also has good mid-range shooting ability. Facing Garnett, a buggy defensive machine, he does not dare to waste the team's offensive opportunities at will. Try it out.

Suddenly, the ball was transferred to Kobe in the corner on the left.

Almost as soon as Odom raised his hand to pass the ball, Garnett flanked Kobe. At the same time, Joe Johnson quickly followed up and cooperated with Garnett to push Kobe back.

.

Under high pressure, Kobe took two steps back and barely found Kwame Brown in the open space. Diaw then released Odom to make up for it.

Kwame Brown failed to take the shot immediately. After pushing Diaw, his shooting rhythm was also disrupted, and he barely missed the shot. Garnett returned to defense and protected the rebound.

"Paul suddenly changed direction and rushed to the basket. After attracting two defensive players from the Lakers, he passed the ball very well to Joe Johnson on the outside. Joe Johnson hit a three-pointer! Very reasonable cooperation, everything was passed

It completely tore the Lakers' defensive position to shreds. The Eagles played well in the opening game!" Yang Jian quickly introduced the situation on the court.

Compared with Kobe's strength alone, it is obvious that the Eagles performed more as a team!

Kobe took Brown's serve and carried him across half court alone, wandering a few meters away from the three-point line, waiting for his teammates to get in position.

After a quick glance, Kobe passed the ball to Parker on the outside, and then immediately ran inside. After several fake moves, Smush Parker still couldn't get rid of Paul's pressing, and helplessly gave the ball to the right side for a three-pointer.

Odom at the line.

Odom raised the ball and made a shooting gesture. He immediately lowered his body and slammed the ball. He took a leaping step forward and immediately reached the three-second zone line. Without pausing, he jumped up and shot.

Garnett took a step forward and jumped to block the shot. Although he failed to block the shot, it also affected Odom's shot.

The ball hit the middle and upper part of the basket and bounced off the basket, but because of the force, it bounced out again.

The ball was flying in the air, and several hands reached for it almost at the same time.

Surprisingly, Kobe grabbed the ball first!

After landing, several hands immediately surrounded Kobe, and Kobe was immediately surrounded!

Kobe struggled and twisted his body, forcefully resisted the surrounding people, held the ball with both hands, patted it on the floor, turned around and shot.

Garnett's defense was so perfect that Kobe couldn't even see the basket. However, Kobe ignored the threat of "iron oxide" and forced the shot!

The basketball flew through an arc toward the basket in the distance.

Whoosh!

After a brief silence, bursts of applause broke out! (4:7)

The goal was beautiful, but this was not the offense that Kobe wanted. After the opening, he did not dominate the team's ball rights because he knew that he could not defeat the Eagles in front of him with his own strength. He needed many players around him.

Someone stand up!

It's a pity that my teammates are really not very helpful!

Paul dribbled to the frontcourt, Diaw directed Garnett to position in the corner, and then came to the top of the arc to cover Paul.

The Lakers limited Paul's ball play through a double attack. Paul, who was under pressure, turned his back to protect the ball and took two steps back. However, after attracting continuous pressure from Odom and Parker, he sent a behind-the-back pass!

Diaw retreated to the top of the arc to receive the ball and dribbled directly to the basket. When he came to the free throw line, Radmanovic and Brown had already shrunk into the penalty area, blocking his path and preventing him from moving forward.

Opportunity to directly attack the frame.

Diaw glanced up and passed the ball to Anthony Parker who was left open in the left corner. The latter caught the ball and shot. Before Radmanovic could pounce on him, he raised his hand and shot a small open three-pointer.

"Shua~"(4:10)

Radmanovic has the advantage of height at the small forward position and does not suffer when rotating against the inside. He is a good match with Odom. However, his footwork is average. When encountering a master of inside passing like Diaw, he hastily

It's easy to get caught in the assist defense!

The Lakers attack. With Garnett, a top help defender, Parker and Odom can't pose a threat in the pick-and-roll, so they might as well leave it to Kobe to solve the offense.

Posting up to Joe Johnson in the low post, Kobe hit him hard with his shoulder twice, opened up the space, then turned around and succeeded in a fadeaway jumper (6:10)

Not good at defense, this was back-to-back games on the road, his physical condition was not at its best, and Joe Johnson did not put enough pressure on Kobe.

Looking back, Paul took the ball and passed Parker in one step, and scored in a one-step throw from the free throw line. The Eagles continued to maintain a 6-point lead.

Kobe switched to personal offense mode and entered singles status when he had the opportunity. This is what Ke Yan wanted to see. However, as the game progressed, the Eagles' own offensive efficiency also gradually declined.

Three games in four days, a series of fierce battles, it is impossible for the players' physical condition not to be affected. What's more, they lost the first two games, which is even more painful on the psychological level.

But fortunately, Diaw's comeback has boosted the morale of his teammates to a certain extent. On the tactical level, Diaw also showed his value. He cooperated with Paul to sort out the team's offense, allowing Garnett to free up more energy on defense.

End-to-end defense.

Garnett, a help defender with a huge defensive area, has obvious limitations on Kobe. Phil Jackson also failed to find a way to break it. In the first quarter, the Lakers fell behind by 8 points at 24:32.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Phil Jackson put both Odom and Smushparker into the starting lineup, and specially arranged offensive tactics for Odom. This adjustment worked wonders.

The first-year Millsap was at a loss when facing the versatile Odom. Odom looked like a god of war when he bullied the rookie, who was being manipulated in front of Garnett. In just two minutes, 4

Made 3 shots and scored 7 points.

However, under the "physical crisis", Ke Yan insisted on trusting Millsap, and veteran Bobby Jackson suddenly broke out and succeeded in two consecutive mid-range and long-range shots, helping the Hawks widen the point difference to 8 points again. (33:41)

It also gives the main players more rest time.

The form of the game was a bit subtle. Phil Jackson decided to explode early, bring on Kobe Bryant, and use Ke Yan's best blitz game to compete with the Eagles.

Ke Yan also immediately replaced Paul and Diaw to revitalize the team's offense. Among the Big Three, Paul is the youngest and has the best physical recovery.

After receiving the ball at half court, Kobe started dribbling, accelerating diagonally to the right without any tricks.

Stevens immediately got close to him, but because he was pacing a little hastily, Kobe immediately pulled half of his body away from him.

Stevens began to use small movements to restrain Kobe, touching Kobe's jersey with one hand and leaning against Kobe's waist with the other.

Kobe's arched body suddenly straightened up, and following the upward trend, Kobe's bounce speed became a little faster.

Stevens also reacted quickly, jumping up and hitting Kobe with his right hand.

The ball almost went out of Kobe's hands without pausing, drawing a slight arc and shooting towards the basket.

“Shua!”(35:41)

There was a round of applause at the scene. The fans at Staples Center loved such a picturesque singles!

The Hawks came over immediately, and after a few moves, Paul and Diaw had completely separated the Lakers' defensive position, creating an opportunity for Paul to single out Parker.

The left side of his body hit Parker, who swayed slightly under Paul's impact.

At this moment, Paul swatted the ball with his right hand and completed a behind-the-back dribble.

Parker immediately took a small step back to wait for an opportunity to take action, but at this time Paul's body twisted to the left.

Paul's action successfully interfered with Parker's defense. He swatted the ball with his left hand, and the ball returned to his right hand from behind. At the same time, his whole body turned to the right, and he stepped out with his left foot, breaking through Parker, who had some disorder in his steps.

Next is Odom who retreats to the basket to protect the rim.

Paul swayed his upper body and raised the ball with both hands. Odom's straight right hand went straight to the ball in Paul's hand, but it missed!

"Oops!" Odom's heart went cold, and then he saw Paul jumping over him.

Snapped!

Odom hit Paul on the arm.

"Beep!" The referee blew his whistle immediately.

An intentional foul was not all part of Paul's plan. After the impact, Paul immediately controlled the strength of his wrist, looked at the position of the basket, and spun the ball in his hand toward the backboard...

The basketball hit the backboard and slanted into the basket with an exaggerated spin!

"Come on!" Ke Yan stood up and cheered for Paul's wonderful score!

Paul's goal is the best response to those who doubted it on the Internet!

Who says we need Kobe?
