Reborn My Name Is Kobe

Chapter 130: Difficult two plus one goal

I think Stockton's defense should be quite successful. At least I successfully blocked the connection between the ball master and his teammates, but I obviously underestimated the entire Jazz team.

Strength, they no longer have one person deciding the tactical upper limit of the entire team.

Although my defense of Stockton is relatively successful, there is still no way to prevent other Jazz players from showing their strength. When Stockton does not attack with the ball, he even starts to run.

It opens up the space and serves as a shooting point without the ball.

When I got the scouting report about Stockton before the game, I was actually very shocked, because this playmaker actually had a three-point shooting rate of more than 40% or even close to 45% in the season. You know, in

In this era, three-pointers are not used as a conventional weapon, and his high three-point shooting percentage is even much higher than that of Hornacek, the real shooter on the team.

Although Hornacek has shot a relatively large number of three-pointers, his overall shooting percentage is actually less than 40%. When I faced off against Hornacek before, the impression he gave me was that he was always in regular time.

He is a player who doesn't show off his power very much, but becomes more accurate at critical moments, so from this perspective, these overall shooting percentage statistics may not be completely valid.

Because they still cannot be fully used as a tool for you to use when playing on the court. They are just a reference data. Only after you conduct precise and careful observation and analysis on the basketball court can you really find out.

Find out what the characteristics of these opponents are and what methods you need to use to deal with them. Otherwise, you will find that many of the things you do are meaningless, and even prevent you from finding the real focus of one thing.

location.

Stockton always gives people the feeling that people can't help but underestimate his threat. Especially the inherent mark of a passing master also makes many people ignore the huge threat he may have on the outside. His

Three-point shots include sudden shots, and shots that are shot immediately after receiving a pass from a teammate.

On the contrary, I think Stockton's three-pointers are quite scary, because you have no idea what he will do next. When he makes a three-threat outside the three-point line, he is a real three-threat, no matter it is a three-pointer.

He has his own set of special skills in shooting, breakthrough and passing, and you have to defend in all three aspects. In fact, few people can really limit a wily guy like Stockton.

.

If you ask me to say whether Stockton is scarier or Michael Jordan is scarier, I may even think that Stockton is entirely possible to be a scarier existence than Michael Jordan. At least in some aspects, he is really scarier than Michael Jordan.

Michael Jordan is more of a threat on the court.

And this kind of threat is actually brought to you by him inadvertently. Before you realize it, these threats have already led you into his trap.

Although I haven't had the opportunity to play against Michael Jordan head-on, I have watched a lot of videos about his games. At least I can know a lot about Michael Jordan's playing style. He is a competitive person on the court and likes to complain.

He talks trash, has a flamboyant personality and is full of desire to fight. This can be seen from the look on Michael Jordan's expression.

But it is obvious that Stockton is a completely different type of person. He looks so low-key and silent, but he is often more deadly and dangerous, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity, or in other words

Like an eagle always watching its target.

If you unfortunately become his target or prey, then you'd better pray quickly, otherwise you will probably suffer some losses when talking to him.

In fact, I only now realize how much later people underestimated Stockton. Such a top player is too unpretentious in many aspects, but his long series of records, such as

Things like the total number of assists, total steals, and attendance rate are obviously not something that an ordinary person can do.

Of course, it is quite normal for such players to be underestimated. After all, the NBA is an entertainment league that needs to create stars and even gods, so players with an overly simple and unpretentious style like Stockton are destined to be impossible to have.

His popularity and many little tricks on the court also aroused the contempt of his opponents.

Therefore, Stockton's reputation has never been too high. Michael Jordan is obviously far ahead of him on this point.

After the Jazz came back from the timeout, they quickly reversed the situation on the court. When our Lakers faced their team basketball, they seemed a little exhausted and couldn't find the defensive center of gravity on the court. This made our team

The protection was focused on one thing but not the other, because the Jazz's offensive efficiency was too high. Therefore, although the offensive efficiency of our starting players has rebounded, the point difference between the two sides has begun to show signs of widening at this time.

However, in the face of this situation, we really have no way to make better adjustments, because no matter whether it is a timeout or no matter what, our entire Lakers team cannot come up with a plan to deal with this situation.

At least for now, we don’t have enough physical reserves to really restrict the Jazz.

The team scores.

They have a lot of scoring points, and they are very stable. The most important thing is that they can be used as organizational points in every position on the field. Although Stockton is definitely the best among these organizational points, it does not mean that he will leave.

The Jazz's offense is no longer sharp without Stockton, but you will find that it is still very sharp.

In fact, without Shaq, we have not been able to improve on the defensive end. The Jazz will constantly adjust their offensive tactics based on the characteristics of our players on the court, making it impossible for us to find the best way to defend them in time.

way.

I always feel that even though the score difference is not particularly big, we just can’t see any hope of getting it back. It’s like a mouse caught by a cat. The reason why it didn’t die immediately is because the cat hasn’t caught you yet.

It's just enough fun. What a scary thing, especially when you find out that you are the mouse.

This feeling always makes our Lakers players on the court feel very uncomfortable, as if there is a huge stone pressing on their chests. Sometimes they are a little out of breath. Because of this, I try hard to

To change such a state, the first half is not over yet, we cannot let this depressed feeling continue, no matter whether the result of the struggle is success or failure, but for me, I want to fight

Good for this game.

I was holding the ball outside the three-point line, and Stockton was still defending me one-on-one. Now I am a little less susceptible to the impact of Stockton's defense. In fact, when I was resting off the court just now

, I carefully observed what Eddie Jones did when facing Stockton's defense, and finally calmed down a little bit.

I told myself that Stockton's defense is indeed very powerful, but there is no need for me to be afraid of him. I should face my fear, and then work hard to defeat it, and finally achieve the result of successfully defeating it.

I quickly gained a new power from my thoughts, and this power made me look like a different person all of a sudden, from the one I had when facing Stockton.

The feeling of fear immediately dissipated, replaced by a feeling of endless power.

I know this feeling is hard-won, so when I faced Stockton again, I began to show all my abilities, because I knew that when facing such a powerful and cunning opponent, I

Only if I don't fear him psychologically will I not be psychologically suppressed by him. Only in this way will I have a chance to win.

Soon Stockton also showed a surprised expression, because he discovered that his previous defensive strategies against me no longer seemed to be effective. In fact, all his defensive strategies were often based on some psychology about me.

On top of the suppression, when I no longer fear his little tricks, his defense of me is no longer as scary as before.

I was finally able to boldly change directions in front of my body and dribble with cross-steps. Stockton's defense suddenly became no longer so scary, so my dribbling fluency also improved, and even his dribbling

The ball is no longer scary, because I already know what his ball-drawing habits are like. All I need to do is to observe his ball-drawing habits, and then make my own response strategy before he draws the ball.

Come.

My biggest change at this time was not only psychological. Of course, because of the psychological change, I no longer worried about physical confrontation with him. When I faced his tough defense, I would also attack myself.

Although Stockton's static strength is top-notch, I still have some advantages in height and athletic ability.

I started to have hand-to-hand combat with Stockton. I was not used to this kind of physical combat before, so I let him put too much pressure on me on the defensive end. Now I am used to the playing habits of the older generation.

, and no longer feel that this kind of hand-to-hand combat is such a big challenge.

I directly used my body to attack and started to post up on him from outside the three-point line. However, the other players on the Jazz did not double-team or help defend me. It was obvious that they were planning to continue their previous strategy.

My defensive strategy is to defend alone without assisting. I believe Stockton can handle me on the defensive end alone.

But now I am no longer the person I was before. Of course Stockton can no longer do whatever he wants on the defensive end like before. As long as I want, I can surpass myself before and become a brand new myself. This

The process may experience some twists and turns or setbacks, but once I persevere in this process, I will definitely gain some kind of growth, and this growth can make me very powerful.

When I played Stockton in a post-up game, I finally discovered some of his weaknesses, a big one of which came from his height and wingspan disadvantage. After all, he was only six feet tall, so

When I play a singles game against him with my back, it is difficult for him to really effectively restrict me, and it is also difficult for him to directly take the ball out of my hand.

I turned my back to him, lowering my center of gravity while dribbling, while the other side was observing the defensive positions of other Jazz players. I kept repeating the dribbling action without any intention of launching an attack.

In fact, it is a way to anesthetize the opponent, making it impossible for the opponent to judge.

Figure out what I want to do next.

Soon I showed them what I wanted to do. When the opponent started to relax on me, it was when I showed my strength. Stockton did not expect my sudden turn. His arm

The exhibition restricted his defensive space, making it impossible for him to directly defend me.

As long as my transformation is successful, they will have no way to restrict what I do next.

In fact, they really can't limit it. Although Karl Malone is very strong, his foot speed and height and wingspan are not particularly good. This leads to him not being very good on the defensive end, especially when protecting the frame.

Not so dominant, when I turned around and finally got rid of Stockton, I got a chance to directly attack the Jazz inside.

This was one of the rare opportunities I had in this game to directly attack the Jazz's inside line. It made my blood start to pulse at this time, and my whole feeling was completely in another state.

Different from the previous feeling where my blood was completely boiling, this time I felt that my whole attention was completely focused on one ball. I had a similar feeling before. In this feeling, the surrounding defensive players were so defensive.

The movements became so slow that I could get past them very easily.

And Karl Malone seems to want to cover up the basket. I have encountered guys who want to block my dunk before. I even did it when facing the top defensive player Dream Olajuwon.

After a dunk, I was deeply impressed by Olajuwon's dream about the dunk. Although I knew that there was some luck involved in that dunk, it made me more confident at this time.

, because I know that as long as I work hard, there will definitely be a chance of success.

Karl Malone has been working very hard to get to the basket. Their previous defense of the Jazz actually did not do a good job in assisting defense, but because their single defense was so successful, it actually doesn't matter, but

This rare occasion, Stockton's defense was completely passed by me, which directly disrupted their previously arranged defensive strategy.

To be honest, Karl Malone's defensive ability is really very poor among the top interior players, especially in the era of the four major centers. Each of the four major centers has very strong interior defensive capabilities. However,

Karl Malone's real advantage lies in his offensive end. The strong offensive efficiency he and Stockton have established on the offensive end can often make up for their lack of personal talent.

Despite this, Karl Malone's powerful body can still bring a certain amount of psychological pressure to the attacker in many cases. However, at this time, I still rose into the air, spread my arms in the air, and made a look like flying in the air.

When my posture came out, it was actually not that easy for Karl Malone to defend me at this time.

Karl Malone also jumped into the air, as if he wanted to knock me down directly from the air, but my explosive power was also very amazing. This time Karl Malone obviously did not fully take off, which gave me a certain chance.

.

At this time, I directly collided with Karl Malone in the air. The huge impact also made me extremely uncomfortable. However, just before I lost control of my body, I made an air lever and threw the ball onto the backboard. The ball turned out to be a miracle.

Like hitting the basket at an almost impossible angle, Karl Malone and I both fell backwards after colliding in the air.

I felt like I had been hit by a giant movable stone wall, but then the referee blew the whistle and a successful two-plus-one opportunity appeared.

This ball immediately made the home fans of the Jazz take a breath. They must not have imagined that I could collide with Karl Malone head-on in the air and still have the strength to score the ball. This ball must also be able to enter.

to my highlight reel of goals this season.

My Lakers teammates pulled me up from the ground. I gritted my teeth and screamed with excitement, encouraging myself in my own way.

This goal is very important for our Lakers team. It shows that our Lakers team has enough strength to compete well.

It also played an encouraging role in the morale of our entire Lakers team. I was finally able to see a rare long-lost desire for victory on the faces of my teammates.

In fact, many times during our games this season, I felt that my teammates did not seem to have such a strong desire to win the game, as if the team's victory many times had nothing to do with them.

I don't know why they have such an attitude, but I only know that it is definitely abnormal for them to have this attitude. I want to use my own efforts and passion to infect my teammates and make them eager to win.

But most of the time I feel disappointed, but at this moment I know that my efforts have had a certain effect.
