One Guard

Kobe made a two-step shot directly from outside the three-point line, but the basketball was like an "intercontinental missile" and accurately hit the basket guarded by the Mavericks.

Faced with this unconventional shot choice, Yiyang had no time to react, and could only watch the score being rewritten by Kobe.

At that moment, the few Lakers fans in the stands of the American Airlines Center Arena became restless. The golden magma surged up, temporarily submerging the wide blue sea completely.

"Kobe! Kobe! Kobe! Kobe!..." The Lakers fans chanted their hero's name, and the Mavericks fans, who were outnumbered, fell silent.

"It's okay, let's attack! Attack!" Carlisle's yelling immediately reached Yiyang's ears. The game had just started, and the academic coach was already dancing on the sidelines.

Yiyang took the baseline ball, and the Mavericks fans also began to cheer for Yiyang. For a while, the momentum of the home fans completely overwhelmed the Lakers fans who came thousands of miles away.

Fisher, a stocky guy, opened his arms. During the regular season, Fisher had experienced how terrifying Yiyang's speed was. So this time, he tried his best to keep a distance from Yiyang, in order to limit Yiyang's breakthrough.

Ke Yiyang did not attack the frame by himself, but passed lightly and hit the ball into Marion's hands.

Facing Marion was the notorious Artest. This guy's defense made Marion very difficult. No way, the No. 0 forward had to pass the ball high and let Nowitzki hold the ball to play Gasol.

Nowitzki and Gasol are now the two greatest post players in Europe. It can even be said that it is not an exaggeration to remove the category of "inside players".

The confrontation between the two has the fans engrossed. Nowitzki stepped back hard, and Gasol, who was underprepared, was forced to take a big step back.

The enemy retreated and we advanced. Seeing this situation, Dirk continued to dig in, and Gasol really couldn't parry it.

When Nowitzki hit the back all the way to the basket, this direct guy turned over and shot a jumper. Dirk is often sure when shooting from this position.

However, this time, under Gasol's defense, a big black hand suddenly appeared in front of Dirk's eyes. The palm completely blocked Nowitzki's shooting angle, and the German had to increase the shooting arc.

"Andrew Bynum! His supplementary defense is really timely, and his jump height is also very scary. Can Dirk make the ball under the joint interference of the Lakers' twin towers?"

Mike Breen quickly got the answer. Dirk, who was affected by the sudden double-team, missed a shot and the basketball knocked out of the frame.

"Little Shark" Bynum immediately took off for the second time after blocking Dirk's shot and pocketed the rebound. This guy's dominance in the penalty area is really getting stronger and stronger.

After Bynum grabbed the rebound without hesitation, he skillfully handed the ball to Fisher. Fisher is like a vintage car with a long history, unhurriedly "in gear" and headed for the heart of the Mavericks.

This time, Kobe borrowed Artest's off-ball pick-and-roll, passed through the crowd and went outside the right three-point line.

As soon as Kobe was in position, Fisher immediately made the ball. The timing is perfect for both of them, after all, they have been partners for many years.

As Stevenson was delayed by the pick-and-roll, Marion had to make up for Bryant again. Compared with Yiyang, Marion's defense is obviously much better.

Although Kobe was holding the ball outside the three-point line at this time,

But one of Marion's hands was always in front of Kobe's eyes, and the other hand kept waving, interfering with Kobe's pass.

Bryant lowered his center of gravity and did a few three-threat moves in accordance with his old habits to confuse his opponent. Suddenly, Kobe started to speed up suddenly! In terms of footwork, Kobe is still a little faster than Marion. "Black Mamba" put Marion on his shoulders and broke through forcefully, surpassing Marion by half a body.

Seeing Kobe coming towards the basket, "Boxing Champion" Tyson didn't hesitate, and immediately made up defense! Against the Lakers, I would rather let others be vacated than leave Kobe a chance!

Now, with Marion at Bryant's side, Chandler raised his arms high across Bryant's face again. From the looks of it, the "Black Mamba" seemed to be surrounded and had no chance at all.

However, is this really the case?

Halfway through the breakthrough, Kobe suddenly braked, stopped and jumped!

Marion jumped up quickly, trying to block Kobe's shot from the side. And Chandler raised his arms high, blocking Kobe's shot from the front.

Under the blockade of two people, Kobe, who had almost no vision, still shot. If it were someone else, Carlisle would definitely fall down with his heart hanging. Because no one can score the ball in this situation. Of course, except for Kobe.

"Swipe!" The basketball didn't even touch the basket, but fell straight into the net!

"Damn it!" Carlisle waved his hand helplessly. Marion and Chandler's defense had done well enough, but Kobe, he just could score.

"This is a typical Kobe-style goal. He was able to score against the interference of two defenders. It seems that the Black Mamba's attack is very high today." Mike Breen said and looked at the big screen on the scene. The score is 5 to 0, what will the Mavericks do?

"Do you think that guy Kobe is a person with an injury?" Carlisle turned around and complained to Stotts after Yiyang controlled the ball and advanced.

"He's such a monster, man." Stotts spread his hands helplessly, and when they met Kobe, these incredible goals must be faced by the Mavericks.

This time, Yiyang still did not choose to attack by himself, but served as a starting point for the offense, playing for his teammates.

He first transferred the battlefield to the inside with a precise ground-hitting pass, and then, Yiyang actively moved to attract the Lakers' defense.

In the end, Marion borrowed Chandler's off-the-ball pick-and-roll and his own flexible running to get a fleeting opportunity outside the three-point line in the left corner.

Nowitzki did not hesitate. This "German chariot" can not only score in the low post, but also has a great ability to cope with the low post.

He turned to pass the ball, and Marion completed the shot with that weird posture before Artest's defense came back.

The Mavericks fans raised their arms high, eager for the open three-pointer to help the Mavericks break the game's scoring drought.

However, there was a crisp sound of hammering iron, which made all the fans who raised their arms sigh. The Mavericks continued to attack to no avail, but Kobe, who was in hot form, struck again.

This time, Kobe didn't use the pick-and-roll to attack. After holding the ball in the mid-range position, he directly challenged Stevenson's defense with a back hit.

Stevenson is indeed a good perimeter defender, but no one can be called a defensive expert in front of Kobe.

Kobe pushed back, and when he got close to the free throw line. The No. 24 turned around suddenly, as if he was going to jump to the right to shoot!

Stevenson moved his footsteps a little, and Kobe felt the change in the center of gravity of the defender behind him. This small step was enough for Kobe to take advantage of!

Kobe didn't move his pivot foot. After deceiving Stevenson to shake his center of gravity, he turned to the left again and turned directly to make a jumper.

Although Stevenson reacted quickly, he blocked it in time. But for Kobe, a slight delay is enough for him to complete the attack.

The basketball crossed a beautiful arc and hit the net again. Kobe's classic post-up singles goal, 7-0, the defending champion started strongly!

"The Mavericks are overwhelmed. Kobe has scored the first seven points of the Lakers since the opening, and the momentum is booming. If the Mavericks can't score in the next round, the situation will completely fall into the hands of the Lakers. .”

Carlisle didn't call a timeout, and Yiyang's "facial paralysis" expression didn't seem to be in a hurry.

After the ups and downs of the first round, the Mavericks have long since stopped scrambling when they fall behind.

Although Kobe's goals are very strong, Yiyang will not be intimidated by just three goals.

This time, after Yiyang controlled the ball and came beyond the three-point line, he didn't rush to deliver the ball as he did in previous rounds. Instead, he made a few gestures, and Nowitzki immediately raised the pick-and-roll.

"Yi and Dirk are ready to play a pick-and-roll. This is a classic tactical coordination of the Mavericks. The defense of the Los Angeles Lakers is about to face a test!"

Nowitzki and Yiyang are naturally familiar with the pick-and-roll. Fisher was blocked by Dirk, but Gasol did not keep up with Yiyang, but continued to guard Nowitzki. Defending Nowitzki is the Spaniard's first priority. As for Yiyang after breaking through the penalty area, let other teammates handle it.

Yiyang's breakthrough speed was so fast that he didn't give the rest of the Lakers a chance to switch defenses. There was no other way, Bynum had no choice but to go into battle himself, he was like a mountain with his arms raised high, and it was impossible for him to be happy.

Yiyang's pass back to Nowitzki was blocked by Gasol, and his space for attacking the frame was also blocked by Bynum. "Zen Master" smiled, a rookie, after all, a rookie.

However, Yiyang was not restrained by this. He suddenly hit the ball on the ground. The basketball is unbiased, passing right through Bynum's splayed legs.

The ball rebounded immediately after passing through the "baby shark", and the rebound height was mastered very delicately. Behind Bynum, Chandler doesn't have to bend down, he just needs to open his hands, and he can easily catch the basketball.

"Hoho! Look, a pass through the crotch! Even if you are in front of him, you may not be able to stop him!" Yiyang's beautiful pass caused a burst of exclamation from the commentary stand and the stands.

And Chandler, with his back to the basket, knew that if he turned around and dunked, Bynum would definitely come to block. So, after receiving the basketball, Chandler took off vertically with his back to the basket, and his backhand dunk succeeded before Bynum arrived.

"With his back to the basket, Chandler broke the scoring drought for the Mavericks. Beautiful pass, beautiful dunk! The Dallas Mavericks responded. It is almost impossible for the defending champion to take away the victory easily. !"

"The speed, power, and angle of this pass are perfect. He will be better than me in the past." Seeing Yiyang retreating quickly on the court, Kidd beside Carlisle said with a smile.

A pass that played tricks on the entire defense of the Lakers and a rock-shattering back dunk with both hands made the American Airlines Center arena finally full of vitality.

After a defense, Gasol singles Nowitzki. But under Nowitzki's full block, Gasol's hook deviated from the basket.

Chandler gathered enough energy, squeezed Bynum away, leaped high, and firmly grasped the rebound. The Lakers missed their first attack today, and the fans are eager to see if the Mavericks can continue the momentum just now.

This time, Yiyang's progress was not fast. He seems to be waiting for his teammates on purpose, and is not in a hurry to attack.

Rhythm fell into position, Yiyang beckoned again. This time, it was Chandler who stepped up to pick and roll Yiyang.

In the last pick-and-roll, Gasol made a big mistake by not switching defenses in time. So this time, Bynum didn't hesitate, and at the moment the pick-and-roll formed, he immediately made up for Yiyang.

The oppression of Bynum's strong body made it very difficult for Yiyang to take every step of the dribble.

It was impossible to continue to break through. At this time, Marion was in position in the left corner. Yiyang turned slightly to the left, as if preparing to pass the ball!

Artest immediately quickened his pace, hoping to intercept Yiyang's obvious pass.

Yiyang still smashed the ball to the ground, but the basketball did not fly in the direction of Marion after rebounding. Instead, it bounced back and hit the air behind Yiyang.

"What the hell!?" Everyone in the Lakers was stunned. They didn't understand what happened until Chandler, who was cutting inside, leaped high and caught the basketball in the air.

Fisher couldn't keep his eyes on Chandler, who easily cut in, jumped up, and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.

Yiyang hit the ground and passed the ball without looking at anyone, deceiving everyone's eyes.

"How did you do it? God, I need a replay! The movement of the wrist is also too detailed. Not everyone can pass this kind of ball even when there is no defense!" Mike. Brin's eyes widened. He clearly saw that Yiyang was about to pass the ball to the left, but after the basketball hit the ground, it bounced in the completely opposite direction.

"This is a magic trick, Mike. And also, that magician from China." Mike Brin's partner Kevin Harlan smiled, and he really hoped that such wonderful scenes would happen more times.

Two consecutive dunks and two consecutive acrobatic passes made the Mavericks close to the score very quickly, and in such a wonderful way.

After Chandler landed, he happily touched Yiyang's head. The two quickly returned to defense, surrounded by cheers from fans.

"Oriental Magician? Well, I think this title is very suitable for him." Mike Brin clapped his hands, and the game was getting better...
