My Name is Kobe Bryant

Portland, the Trail Blazers players are preparing for the game against the Lakers.

The Trail Blazers had just defeated the second best team in the East, the Detroit Pistons, the day before, giving the Pistons their 8th loss of the season.

It's Jordan's Law again! P-J-Carlesimo seems to be addicted to this tactic after using Jordan's rules to defeat the Lakers in the last game, but for any team led by a single-core outside star, he uses Isiah Leder and Kerry Fred Robinson flanks!

The effect is outstanding, whenever seeing a superstar being cornered by his team's defense, P-J-Carlesimo has a different kind of pleasure!

Especially the opponent is Grant Hill, a recognized superstar. Even such a player is inaccurate under his own double-team tactics and iron-clad inside defense.

After Grant Hill was occupied by Sabonis and Roaring Tianzun in the interior, his ability to break through and kill was limited. The game fell short, scoring only 20 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists on 6 of 21 shots.

For an ordinary star, such a performance is not bad, and even a quasi-triple-double performance is already very good.

But for Grant Hill, who leads the team with a single core, such a performance is destined to fail to lead the team to victory.

Of course, Jordan's Law doesn't apply to every team. If it weren't for the Blazers with Sabonis and Roaring Tianzun who can fill in the interior, firmly guard the penalty area, and add top-level forward defense, such a double-team defense would be a bonus for a star!

That is to say, the aging Pistons relied too much on Grant Hill, so they were arranged by P-J-Carlesimo's tactics.

"Did you watch the tape?" P.J. Carlesimo asked as he gathered the players together at the Portland Trail Blazers' practice facility.

"finish watching."

"How do you feel?"

"Very strong. The real strength of the Lakers team is far from the one we won."

"Both Kobe and O'Neal can dominate the game. Although the Grizzlies are just a weak team, Kobe and O'Neal's performance is still amazing."

"If you want to lock the Lakers' offense, it is useless to lock only a single core. Pat Riley also proved that the tactics of defending the penalty area and defending Kobe alone are not effective."

Players, you took a look at me and talked about your opinions. Sabonis and Kenny Anderson are both smart generals, and their analysis is to the point.

"That's right, it's impossible for us to stop the Lakers with defense alone. Maybe the Bulls have that ability, but the league can't find another team that can lock up the Lakers, unless it's them like last game. I'm not in a good shape."

"So, we have to play the most exciting offense. O'Neal can't defend, and Campbell is lazy defensively. These two points must be grasped! Our lineup restrains the Lakers. The biggest defensive flaw of the Lakers is that they don't defend the inside players. The ability to go out and shoot!"

"Seize this loophole, I need Avidas and Rasheed to kill the Lakers from the outside!"

"This is our offensive tactic!"

"What about the defensive end?" Arvidas Sabonis asked.

"On the defensive end, continue to use Jordan's rules to defend Kobe! Now every team in the league is targeting O'Neal. It's a big mistake! Kobe is the engine of the Lakers' tactics. Kobe is restricted, and none of the Lakers can feed O'Neal. Ball player exists!"

The Blazers players' eyes lit up. When they saw the Lakers killing the Grizzlies, they still felt a little panic. Whether the victory over the Lakers in the last game was just a fluke.

P-J-Carlesimo's arrangement made all the players full of confidence!

Perfect! P-J-Carlesimo came up with such a tactical arrangement after thinking about his gray hair, and he couldn't help but secretly proud.

The alliance is bragging that you silver fox Harris is cunning, but they don't know that I, Carlesimo, are also smart and close to a monster!

Kobe? O'Neal?

Talking and laughing, ashes vanished!

"Kobe, although I am really convinced by your last button, can you let me sign less." O'Neill winked, 100 sneaker autographs really killed him, and he thought of sitting at home to sign. After being named for a whole day, I feel like the sky is going to collapse.

"Okay, then 99, no less."

The Lakers are doing routine training in the training hall, because they will play against the Trail Blazers again tomorrow. Today's training is mainly about relatively easy shooting exercises and targeted tactical drills.

"Everyone come here, the coach has something to say." Kurt Rambis called the Lakers players who were doing shooting practice.

"Everyone, tomorrow we will face the Trail Blazers. I believe you all know very well that this is an important home defense battle!"

"The last time we lost to the Trail Blazers, there were many objective factors, such as the schedule, physical fitness, touch, etc. But this time, we have no excuses. We need to win this game in front of the fans in the Great Western Forum Arena! "

"We have to pay attention to a few points of the Blazers, the first is defense! Kobe, did you watch their game against the Pistons yesterday?"

"I've seen that Grant Hill is locked up."

"That's right, they will definitely continue to use Jordan's rules against you in this game. I need you to play the ball quickly, regardless of whether your teammates can make the shot, and pass it to the open player as soon as you are double-teamed."

"Shaq, you need to put your defensive space out, I know you have the ability to defend, don't be too lazy. At the same time, I want to see you beat Sabonis and let him know who the world's strongest center is! "

"Understood."

"Fourth, Campbell backs up, Horry starts. I need you to guard Rasheed Wallace's outside jumper, allow him to post you up, but don't allow him to get open shots."

"Promise to do it!" Horry was overjoyed to learn that the game was going to start.

The change of the Lakers' lineup can be said to be a rare miracle in the American NBA. Almost no adjustments have been made since the beginning of the season to the current starting lineup. One reason is that the Lakers were lucky to have almost no injuries in the first round, and the other reason is that Harris is a steady coach and doesn't like to try new things.

But in this game, Horry's appearance was a change that made Kobe even feel bright!

Horry can not only defend Rasheed Wallace's shooting on the court, but also act as an organization point, liberating Kobe from holding the ball, so that Kobe does not have to forcibly handle the ball under double-teaming.

In this way, the Lakers' originally restrained lineup instantly came to life.

Kobe is looking forward to how many points the Lakers in their heyday can beat the Blazers.

Also, although Kobe didn't say it, he didn't forget his seven-game 40+ plan.

One-third completed so far, with four more races to follow.

Completing three games of 40+ has been blown up by the media as the next Chamberlain, so what about seven games?

Unsurprisingly, it's on the shelves on May 1st and Labor Day, and start to save manuscripts! It's time to explode!
