NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

In the last few minutes of the second quarter, the Lakers carried the offensive banner on the 24th. In the case of multiple teams, he chose to use his body to fight fouls and try his best to kill.

Finally, at the end of the half, the score between the two sides became 54:55. The Los Angeles Lakers still held a one-point edge with Kobe Bryant's desperate rush to the rim.

But when Bryant came off the court, the Lakers players didn't have much joy, but still looked heavy.

Because they know that Kobe's style of play will not last long, and the Lakers are still in a very dangerous situation.

How difficult is it to take away a victory and end the losing streak at Rose Garden Arena!

...

When Wang Zelin and others returned to the locker room, they felt ashamed when they thought that the team was still behind.

Their goal this year is to be No. 1 in the regular season and to be the NBA championship. They were actually suppressed by a team of veteran Lakers for a full halftime.

shame!

What a shame!

Kobe scored 11 points in the first quarter. The Blazers did a good job of defending at the beginning of the second quarter, but then, Kobe seemed to have found a way to solve the problem. Even in the face of a double-team, he could still use his own way. The Blazers got the score.

It has been said that the Los Angeles Blacksmith is old, but just in terms of his performance just now, this guy still has the offensive firepower of the league's scoring champion.

the reason is simple.

Because Kobe no longer has to attack and defend at both ends as he did a few years ago, first of all, his physical strength will not allow it.

Therefore, he only needs to selectively reduce his focus on the defensive end, and when he concentrates on offense, the bloodthirsty Mamba is destined to be unstoppable.

On the surface, the Blazers' wheel battle did not achieve the expected results, but it was a bit bad.

Take Matthews as an example. He has already been fouled 4 times in only halftime. Batum is not much better, and he has already been fouled 3 times.

The two perimeter defenders of the Blazers were completely overwhelmed by the Lakers on No. 24 today.

However, Terry Stotts has always believed that time is an invisible blade, and as long as it is a human being, it is impossible to resist the natural law of birth, aging, illness and death.

In such a round of battles, Kobe has few really effective means on the offensive end today. Most of the outside shots are top shots with average efficiency. Of the 17 points he scored in the second quarter, 11 of them came from free throws. the...

He really didn't believe it. Kobe Bryant's style of play could continue until the end of the game, and he could beat all the Blazers players even if he had the ability.

Even Shaquille O'Neal, who was known for his inside-line lethality back then, did not have the ability to beat all the players in the same position on a team.

Terry Stotts roared loudly in the locker room, not blaming the players, but pouring chicken soup for the soul, giving the players plenty of confidence, while also getting everyone as excited as possible.

But even so, even if the entire locker room was full of Trist's voice, Matthews couldn't hear it.

Now he's full of images of Kobe scoring goals in front of him.

Matthews only scored 4 points and 1 rebound today. He would be far more than usual, but he got a full 4 fouls. If he continues to play like this, before the third quarter is over, he is estimated to have to leave the game with full fouls.

It's one thing to know that the opponent is strong, but it's another to be blown up.

Obviously, Matthews's mood is now on the verge of collapse. I saw him covering his head, trying hard to drive the image out of his mind.

Wang Zelin noticed the strangeness of Matthews, so he patted the teammate on the shoulder before he played.

"Remember how it was said? Although the axe is small, it can cut down the hardest oak tree after many times of chop..."

"Dude, don't be frightened by Kobe's offensive firepower. In fact, whether it's against you or Nicholas, it's not so easy for him to score. Continue to do every defense, don't worry, we'll win this game. !"

Wang Zelin smiled at Matthews, and then set foot on the field.

Wang Zelin spent the whole night in the double team of his opponent. On the offensive end, he must face the defense of Paul Gaso and another Lakers insider, and at the same time take into account all kinds of auxiliary defenses. But even so, he still responded to all opponents with his performance.

Halftime 16 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, yes, Wang Zelin achieved a double-double in only halftime.

Matthews let out a long breath and patted his chest. Even the second-year rookie didn't give up. What reason did he have to think about?

Just think more, do more!

Gan is done!

...

"Back from the game, we saw that the Blazers' lineup remained unchanged. To be honest, their No. 2 Will Matthews has been fouled too many times now, so it is not appropriate to play." Yu Jia said.

"In fact, whether it's the Blazers' foul problem on the outside or Kobe's physical reserve, everyone has reached a point. At the critical moment of this protracted battle, whoever can overcome this hurdle will usher in the dawn of victory."

This time, Zhang Lili was unbiased and said with an expressionless face.

The two sides will fight again.

Lakers attack.

Outside the left-wing three-point line, Nick Young shot a three-pointer on Batum's head.

As he shot, nine other players rushed to the basket at the same time...

"Shh!"

Three-point shot.

"Yes!"

There was a lot of buzz and some supportive voices from the scene.

That's right, after all, it's the Los Angeles Lakers, after all, it's the Black Mamba Kobe Bryant, and there are quite a few fans in this away game to cheer them on.

"Shet!"

Batum stopped sprinting back and uttered a foul language on the spot.

Why did you throw the magic ball again?

What kind of fairy is this boy No. 0?

Isn't this kind of attack usually only seen on Lakers No. 24?

Batum's mind suddenly appeared in a series of questions. He really wanted to grab Lakers coach D'Antoni's neck and ask how the latter arranged his tactics.

In fact, at the moment Nick Young shot, whether it was D'Antoni off the court or the Lakers No. 24 on the court, they all cursed in their hearts at the same moment, but when Nick Young made a three-pointer, the water splashed, and the two instantly smiled.

Don't care what Nick Young's brain circuit is doing, scoring with his ability is a good goal!

When Nick Young returned to defense, he made a celebratory gesture of hugging the audience with open arms.

This move made tens of thousands of home fans itch with hatred, and boos from the mountains and tsunamis instantly swept the entire arena.

Kobe was a little worried about whether Nick Young could handle the pressure at first, but it turned out that the latter was still confused...

Come on, worry about it, this guy's brain is not ordinary.

Trail Blazers attack.

Lillard rushed to the frontcourt, looked around at the top arc, and found that Wang Zelin had inserted directly into the basket from the bottom corner, and immediately threw the ball into the sky.

"boom!"

Air catch dunk.

"Bang~blind Karaka!"

"Wang~Ze~Lin!!!"

The home DJ roared heartily.

Wang Zelin rushed to the backcourt unhurriedly, and did not forget to make a listening gesture along the way, as if to say: Where is your voice? I can not hear!

next moment~

"king!!!"

The cheers at home once again shocked the hearts of every Lakers player.

In this situation, Wang Zelin really wanted to imitate a contemporary 13 king, jumped on the technical stage, and shouted to the audience, "This is my horse!"

No, now is not the time. When the Lakers are completely unable to fight back, it is the best time to play 13.

There are many classic cases in the NBA, and there are many more painful cases. He doesn't want to be a negative textbook character who pretends to be 13 and gets fucked.

Offensive and defensive conversion, the Lakers attack.

Under the constant harassment of Matthews, Kobe went to the frontcourt.

Seeing Wang Zelin moving near the free throw line and not entering the low position, his brows became more and more frowning. This is because he was determined not to let him break through.

At this time, Pau Gasol was looking at him in the low post on the left wing, next to Aldridge.

"Whoosh!"

After two steps closer, his ball couldn't get out.

At the same time, Pau Gasol was handcuffed, and Aldridge turned around and rushed to the basket, as if in the same heart.

At the moment of passing the ball, Wang Zelin, who appeared again, sensed the opponent's intention, turned around, and threw himself in the direction the ball flew.

As soon as he turned around, the ball flew over his head.

After another step, he jumped up.

Pau Gasol jumped into the paint and jumped up when he saw the ball.

But at this moment, out of the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of the Pioneer No. 36 coming, which made his heart tremble.

But at this time the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. He grabbed the pass flying from the side with both hands, gritted his teeth and pressed it down.

"Snapped!"

Wang Zelin pressed his left palm firmly on the basketball, and then pulled down again, using the huge sprint inertia to push Paul Gaso down to the floor with the ball.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, Pau Gasol fell heavily on the floor, but the basketball was firmly grasped by Wang Zelin.

"Yes!"

In the violent cheers, the countless palms of the rose garden began to wave.

"Time to fight back!"

Wang Zelin bent down and turned his head. With a roar, he threw the ball to the Lakers half court with one hand. Lillard finally received the pass and scored another dunk.

"Oh hoo hoo hoo!"

The place was boiling again.

"Cough cough..."

Lying on the floor, Pau Gasol saw a fierce face above and a pair of eyes that were as pale as water in the violent coughing sound.

As if the shocking hat just now was nothing in the eyes of the latter?

The new generation beats the old!

There are talented people from all over the world!

Pau Gasol thought of his rookie season as well, and he had the last laugh in the competition with the talented rookies of the same class, winning only one chance in a player's career to win the Rookie of the Year.

Now, he seems to have become a special background board for countless talented newcomers, and he can't help but feel a little sad.

Wang Zelin stood in front of Pau Gasol, glanced down, and turned around without leaving any trash talk.

The Lakers attacked, and Nick Young, who was on top, once again faced Batum's face-to-face defense and made a strong shot, and made a three-point shot.

Wang Zelin grabbed the rebound. At this time, there was no defense in the Lakers penalty area. He threw it directly. Lillard did not open twice and staged a one-handed dunk again. When Kobe looked back, it was too late to defend.

58:58!

The Blazers finally tied the score.

"It seems that the Lakers have not been able to cross this hurdle after all. The two rounds of offense have ushered in the pioneers' two successful counterattacks. If the Lakers still fail in the next round, I think the scale of victory will definitely start. tilt."

Yu Jia laughed.

At this time, everyone knows that the next Lakers attack must be No. 24 - Kobe Bryant!

It can only be him!

Coming to the frontcourt, Kobe didn't take control of the ball for the first time, but waited until halfway through the attacking time before taking over the ball in the hands of Steve Blake, a low post on the right.

At this time, the other teammates have already pulled away, and there are 11 seconds left in the attack time.

Without any hesitation, after Kobe received the ball, he decisively pulled out his hand.

Because he knows very well that as long as he waits another 1-2 seconds, the Blazers will definitely send another player to double-team him. Instead of facing the situation of 1VS2, it is better than the current 1VS1.

But to his great surprise, Matthews actually reacted, and the interference was very timely. Kobe made a second effort in the air and leaned back slightly, barely avoiding the block.

Seeing that the block was empty, Matthews felt frustrated for a while. Even though he had done so well in defense, he still failed to prevent Kobe.

But the next moment ~ Duang!

In the past, the extremely annoying sound of hammering iron was now like the sound of nature, making Matthews instantly turn from sadness to joy.

I defended?

This ball is still blocked by me!

Kobe is not reconciled. In his opinion, the rare opportunity for a vacancy is actually missed. This is a huge waste!

Well, only in the eyes of the Black Mamba, will 1v1 single defense be regarded as an open position.

But no matter what, the ball was not scored after all, and the rebound was protected by Wang Zelin and handed over to Lillard.

frontcourt.

Aldridge received the ball in a low position, faced Jordan Hill's defense, turned over and shot with a straight arm, and the basketball hit the basket.

At 60:58, the Blazers overtook 2 points.

Everything is just as Yu Jia said. Excessive consumption of physical energy in the first half to cause damage and fouls is not without cost. When Kobe cannot guarantee an offensive defeat, it is when the Lakers are in full swing.

On the next ball, Kobe forcibly carried Matthews to the basket, and as soon as he shot, he was placed on the backboard by Wang Zelin.

"The king's 4th block tonight! He blocked Kobe's offense and blocked the Lakers' hope of counterattack... The king passed the ball! Super long-distance connection... It's Lillard again, he completed the finish at the basket !"

Suddenly, the difference has come to 4 points.

The momentum of the Blazers is getting stronger and stronger, and the Lakers, on the other hand, have shown signs of being more than enough but not enough.

The same is true.

At the end of the three quarters, the Trail Blazers scored 34 points in a single quarter and limited the Lakers to 11 points, 88:66…

The Trail Blazers are leading too much~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Several players on the Lakers' court have lost all energy.

In the fourth quarter, the main force was all in, and both sides tacitly came on the bench.

On the Lakers bench, everyone felt like they were pressing down on a boulder, their bodies were tired and their hearts were even more tired.

The same goes for Lakers coach D'Antoni, perhaps more so.

Last season, he came to Angel City in high spirits, thinking about how to lead the F4 team to win the first NBA championship in his vocational teaching career. 2nd, 3rd...

He wants to become a real NBA generation coach in Los Angeles, in this world-famous Angel City.

Now it seems that he thinks too much.

D'Antoni took one last look back at the Blazers who were still celebrating in the center of the court, and then looked back:

The water in Angel City is too deep, I can't hold it! Let's run away next season.
