One Guard

The Staples Center was quiet, the entire stadium could only hear Yiyang's low growl after completing the dunk.

David Beckham, who was sitting on the sidelines, was stunned, Jack Nicholson was stunned, and Leonard DiCaprio also held his head with his hands.

Even in the star-studded Los Angeles, even in the big-name Staples. Yiyang and Kidd's empty match performance still stole all the limelight.

"Jason Kidd's pass is so accurate! At first, I thought Kidd passed the ball high. But I didn't expect that he could actually catch it, and it was just right! If you say this is Kidd was lucky, I wouldn't believe it. He knew what he was capable of, and that's why he passed a pass that only he could catch. I wonder if, in practice, the Mavericks players often watch two Such a performance." Mike Breen's voice made the mouth-mouthed fans in front of the TV gradually come to their senses, there are not no people in the NBA who can jump higher than Yiyang. But among players with yellow skin and black hair, this player is absolutely the only one who can bounce so terrifyingly!

Bryant jogged toward his own half, urging Artest to quickly serve the baseline. This No. 24 knows that if he and the Lakers don't do anything, the momentum of the game will be completely taken away by the Mavericks!

Kobe was not in a hurry to play alone. After being successfully defended by the smart Yiyang in the last round, the leader of the Lakers calmed down a little.

He observed the situation on the court, and his singles would only sink the Lakers deeper and deeper. So Bryant reached out and called Gasol to pick and roll, but his goal was not to score by himself.

Kobe used Gasol's cover to break through, and Yiyang quickly got rid of Gasol's "tower" and stood in front of Kobe again.

But when Yiyang opened his arms, Kobe didn't continue to attack, but suddenly passed the ball to Yiyang's head.

After finishing the pick-and-roll, Gasol, who cut inside the penalty area, raised his arm high and received the basketball firmly. At this time Nowitzki has been left behind by Gasol, and the Spaniard scored with a one-handed dunk, which can be regarded as regaining some face for the Lakers.

I have to admit that the strength of the defending champion is indeed strong. If it was another team, they might have been stunned by Yiyang and Kidd's aerial cooperation just now. But the Lakers not only did not mess themselves up, but they were able to come up with a response ball. Based on this, the quality of the Lakers has left many competitors behind.

In the next attack by the Mavericks, Kobe made Yiyang feel what it means to be treated like a superstar. When Wade and Kobe faced off, "The Flash" had to rely on pick-and-rolls to pass halftime safely. What's more, Yiyang's current strength is still not comparable to that of Wade back then.

Kobe's strict blockade and unyielding spirit made Yiyang unable to escape for a long time.

Kidd can only re-customize the offensive plan. Fortunately, Marion was in excellent form today. After receiving the basketball from the mid-range position, he hit the ball steadily, which allowed the Mavericks to continue to score.

The two sides have been fighting each other for a long time in this rhythm of mutual offense and defense. During this period of time, no one can really establish an advantage, and no one is really at a disadvantage. The two teams come and go, and the score climbs anxiously. It wasn't until the end of the second quarter when Phil Jackson and Carlisle both switched to rotations that the balance of victory finally tilted. It's just unfortunate that the balance is still tilting towards the Lakers.

This season, the biggest change in the Lakers lineup is the almost major change of rotation players. As for the Mavericks, due to Yiyang's trade, the rotation has been short of manpower.

The second team of both sides can be said to be weak, but don't forget, the Lakers also have an all-round fighter, Lamar Odom!

Odom's performance this season is like a flashback, averaging 14.4 points per game, the highest in nearly four years. And now, the Mavericks' weakest point in terms of staffing is precisely the forward line.

When the starters rested, Carlisle could only use Stevenson to play the third position and Cardinal to play the fourth position. However, no matter who these two guys face against Odom, there is nothing wrong with that all-around fighter.

Although Stevenson is strong defensively, his height is too disadvantageous. As for the "administrator" Cardinal, the gap between him and Odom is more comprehensive.

With Odom's excellent performance in the last few minutes of the second quarter, the Lakers finally ended the first half of the game 56 to 52 with a 4-point lead.

Although the Mavericks played well, Nowitzki's continued slump still made the media more optimistic about the Lakers' victory.

In the third quarter, the two sides still played inextricably. The Lakers couldn't continue to widen the point difference, and the Mavericks couldn't close the score.

Kobe and Yiyang can still face each other, but Kobe's desire to score doesn't seem to be that strong today. When Gasol and Odom were both in excellent condition, Kobe actually passed a lot of good balls for the two, instead of choosing to score by himself.

This guy's desire to win today far exceeds his desire to score.

It is also because of this that Yiyang was "fortunate" not to be beaten by Kobe after going crazy. He had almost no chance to score under Kobe's defense, but Yiyang used his own pass to help Marion and Terry score a lot.

The Mavericks' offense is like this. Everyone on the field may become the strongest offensive point in Carlisle's hands. It is possible that in the first quarter it was Yiyang, and in the second quarter it became Terry.

In the third quarter of the game, the two sides tied for 27 in a single quarter. The 4-point difference remains the same, and the Lakers have controlled the situation very well. If the Mavericks still have no way to overtake the score in the fourth quarter, then there will be no chance for them to continue chasing.

"The third quarter is over. Yi, who performed well in the first half, seemed to have completely disappeared in the third quarter. Except for a few wonderful passes occasionally, I seem to have almost forgotten the existence of Yi. Do you think that Yi Does today's performance feel like driving high and low going?" Taking advantage of the break during the festival, Mike Breen and Van Gundy also began to chat about the situation on the court. The two sides played very fiercely today. During the game, the two had no time to analyze these for the fans.

"The offense of the Mavericks is like this. Although Terry and Marion have scored a lot of points, these two guys have little performance in the first half of the game. I would say that is the case under Coach Carlisle, because he emphasizes more. The integrity of the offensive end, so except for Dirk, not everyone can hold the ball to attack the whole game. I don’t think Yi’s performance today is high and low, but the Mavericks in the third quarter It’s not just him.” Van Gundy analyzed this phenomenon from a tactical perspective, but Mike Breen didn’t seem to agree.

"You're right Jeff, but the statistics don't lie. In the third quarter, under Kobe's defense, he also took three shots from outside the three-point line, but none of them hit. This is the same as the first half of the game. When Derek defends Yiyang, there are two completely different effects. It's not that there is no offense, but there is no goal."

"However, his few breakthroughs have achieved good results, and you can't say that Kobe's defense completely restricted him. In short, I think that if the Mavericks want to take away the victory from the Staples Center, then it will be the key center." The key! In the fourth quarter, he will not continue to disappear." Van Gundy said, clenched his hands into fists and slammed on the commentary platform.

The two commentators didn't seem to notice a problem. As a guard who doesn't like to shoot three-pointers, Yiyang has already shot five times from outside the three-point line today! Although Kobe did not make a three-pointer today, the "Black Mamba" only tried 2 times.

It seems that the loss against the Grizzlies and the extra training after the loss are still affecting Yiyang's way of playing. This guy is also very stubborn sometimes...

"Also, Jeter! You two play guards! Remember, your mission is to score, score!" Carlisle now puts all his hopes on Yiyang and Terry. These two guys are the best offensive performance of the Mavericks today. Excellent duo. In the fourth quarter, what the Mavericks need most is offensive firepower.

Nowitzki's shooting rate fell below 35% again today, and Carlisle doesn't think the German will suddenly wake up in the fourth quarter. Marion played really well, and has scored 16 points so far. But the Lakers are bound to make a lot of arrangements for Marion in the future, and Marion, who relies on jump shots as his main scoring method, is precisely the easiest to watch.

Therefore, Yiyang and Terry, who are young and old, are the capital for the Mavericks to fight the Lakers in the fourth quarter.

Carlisle had just finished drawing up tactics for the two guards, and the intermission was officially over.

When the players from both sides stepped onto the field, Carlisle also saw that the Lakers had also played Odom, who performed well.

Sure enough, "Zen Master" Jackson didn't want to spend with Carlisle anymore. From the first second of the fourth quarter, this guy planned to start the decisive battle!

In this quarter of the game, the Lakers finally got the ball first again. Both Terry and Yiyang defended well, but Carlisle still used the taller Yiyang to defend Kobe, even though he was just a rookie.

Fisher got the ball to the top of the arc, and Gasol set up an off-ball pick-and-roll for Bryant.

When Yiyang tried his best to catch up with the 24-year-old and opened his arms, he realized that the Lakers' tactics had been completed. Kobe got a 1-on-1 chance with Yiyang, which is the embodiment of the triangle tactics on the offensive end!

Although Kobe is talkative, he hardly talks when he is attacking with the ball because he will distract himself.

I saw Kobe staring intently at Yiyang's feet, as if observing the No. 1 guard's defensive position.

On the 24th, he made several exaggerated three-threat moves. Yiyang tried his best to keep calm and did not shake his center of gravity because of Kobe's moves.

"Good guy!" Kobe looked at Yiyang with admiration. This Chinese man's defense is definitely not at the level that a rookie should have.

On this point, Yiyang really has to thank Stevens. The young Bulldogs coach usually pays attention to the basic training method, which gave Yiyang a good defensive ability. Of course, this is also related to Yiyang's calm mentality and strong ability to read games.

Seeing that it was difficult to break through Yiyang, Kobe dribbled the ball two steps forward and simply held the ball with his back! Yiyang gritted his teeth, Kobe's back attack at the mid-range position may be more threatening than the front frame!

"Bryant played post-up singles and didn't give an inch..."

While Yiyang was still guessing what Kobe would do, the Lakers took the lead but suddenly turned around and took a big step to Yiyang's left!

Yiyang hurriedly moved sideways, his legs moved quickly! But just when Yiyang reacted, the corners of Kobe's mouth turned up slightly.

He quickly retracted the steps he had taken, and then turned around to the right. This rapid turn caused Yiyang to be thrown away in an instant.

Kobe took off and shot directly, and the basketball hit steadily. As it turns out, masterful post-up moves aren't just for big men and offense around the rim. Kobe used a fantastic footstep to play a role in the middle distance!

"He may be the best student in Olajuwon's training camp!" Mike Breen couldn't help but applaud Kobe. Perhaps there is no guard in the entire league with a better post-up attack than him.

"It's okay, calm down!" Nowitzki picked up the basketball on the floor and patted Yiyang on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

While advancing, Yiyang made gestures to organize the attack. Kobe could clearly see that there was no emotion on the face of the Chinese talent show. Could this guy be the Terminator? Few people will still be in such a position after being scored by Kobe Bryant.

Before Kobe could continue to think, Yiyang passed the ball. But this pass was just a transition, passed to Terry. Sure enough, as soon as the ball was thrown, Yiyang started to move. Kobe naturally followed closely without leaving any space.

Terry's scoring performance today is also very good, so the Lakers' defense is actually a little hesitant. In the end, no one knows whether it was Yiyang or Terry who made the conclusion.

At this time, Terry dribbled the ball twice and passed it. Kobe immediately became nervous and stretched out his arms to block Yiyang. But the target of Terry's pass is not Yiyang, but Dirk who is in the low post.

"Did the Mavericks still put their hopes on the Germans?" Mike Breen asked, but soon he got the answer.

After Nowitzki held the ball, he slowly turned to face the frame. Odom blocked Nowitzki with one hand, and waved the other hand into a net to interfere with the German's ball.

At this time, Yiyang began to approach Nowitzki. But no one cared about Yiyang, everyone thought Nowitzki would play singles by himself.

The moment Nowitzki passed by Yiyang, the German Lakers threw the basketball behind them!

Kobe was delayed by Nowitzki's screen, and Dirk's backward pass fell right into Yiyang's hands!

"Dirk holding the ball is just a cover, the real end point is also!"

Under the exclamation of Mike Breen, Yiyang made the sixth shot from outside the three-point line. Although Kobe was one step late, he still interfered with Yiyang.

Odom and Gasol immediately got stuck, and Yiyang made 0% of his three-pointers in the third quarter. How likely is this shot to hit?

The basketball hit the side of the basket, but it didn't hit the frame, but stumbled into the net!

"Haha!" Nowitzki laughed loudly, and Terry rushed up to pat Yiyang's butt.

As for Yiyang himself, he raised his arm and gestured three fingers towards the sky. Lost two games in a row at the three-point line? no way!

With Yiyang's precise strike, Kobe was also beheaded.

The point difference between the two teams has become three points, and the temperature of Staples seems to have risen a lot...
