The opening three-pointer in basketball

Chapter 337 Fighting the Lakers Again

"Kobe, what do you think about entering the league MVP list for nothing?"

"He is very good. I support him and I am very optimistic about him."

"So what about the next game between the Lakers and Timberwolves?"

"Hahaha, we will defeat them."

The regular season of this season is gradually coming to an end, and the games are getting better at this time.

Many strong teams will face a difficult schedule.

For example, the Timberwolves have to play two games with the Lakers, one game with the Thunder, two games with the Grizzlies, one game with the Bulls, and one game with the Pacers in just about forty-five days in March and April.

, played two games with the Celtics.

In just twenty-three rounds, they have nine games and are a strong team in the league.

Fortunately, their games against the Spurs, Heat, Hawks, and Clippers are over, otherwise, the Timberwolves would really be beaten to death.

The first strong team the Timberwolves face at this stage is the Lakers.

The Lakers’ star is Kobe Bryant, and the Timberwolves’ star is Bai Yi.

Kobe is now seventh on the mvp rankings, and Bai Yi is eighth on the mvp rankings.

Many media reporters are hyping up this matter. They feel that this game may be related to the ranking of the next round of MVP rankings.

Kobe was interviewed by reporters and showed great confidence.

Bai Yi also accepted an interview with reporters. He acted very calmly. For him, winning the Rookie of the Year award is a sure thing, and he will definitely complete the system tasks this season.

Of course, that doesn't mean he won't compete for mvp.

Just be normal.

He will give it his all, work very hard, and that's it.

Although Bai Yi and Kobe didn't say much, they didn't say anything extreme at all.

But when the Timberwolves, a big dark horse, compete against a traffic-heavy team like the Lakers, the media and the league will naturally hype it up.

Then all kinds of news broke out, all of which were fueling the fire.

Timberwolves and Lakers fans didn't know the truth and thought this was reality. They formed teams one after another and argued on the forum.

How can the Timberwolves compare with the Lakers in terms of number of fans?

We couldn't argue anymore, so we had to vent in Minnesota.

The local media has also been exaggerating that Los Angeles people are bullies and bully their fans in small cities by relying on their strength in numbers.

At 7 pm on February 29, 2012, there were nearly 20,000 fans at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, and they filled all the seats.

Amid the enthusiastic cheers of the fans, the main players of the two teams stayed on the court.

Timberwolves starting lineup: Bai Yi, Reggie, Tucker, Morris Jr., and Pekovic.

The Timberwolves' lineup is basically fixed.

Love and Rubio usually come off the bench to play with the opponent's second team.

Because of the lack of intention, the Timberwolves not only attack, but also lack defense.

Moreover, Reggie, Tucker, Morris Jr., and even center Pekovic have all been practicing three-pointers recently.

For example, Takerji's three-pointers have reached the league's passing level, which is a 36% shooting rate.

In this case, role players can also help Bai Yi share the pressure.

Rubio and Love, two players who dug holes, are even more uncool and likely to play.

Although Love's offense is actually very good, averaging more than 20 points per game, the Timberwolves really don't need it at the moment.

Arrange for Tucker to come up, and the effect will be better.

Lakers starting lineup: Kobe, DaGa, Bynum, Wolders, Fisher.

Compared with the last game against the Timberwolves, the Lakers did not make any adjustments to their starting lineup.

Mike Brown certainly didn't mean to mess up.

In fact, the Lakers have performed well recently. They are now firmly fourth in the Western Conference and are the first team in the Western Conference.

There is absolutely no reason for Mike Brown to mess up on purpose.

The reason why he arranged it this way was because he had to arrange it this way.

Needless to say, Kobe Bryant and Bynum, the core player during the two consecutive championships, Walders is also a very good defensive player.

And Fisher is the helmsman of the team, the player who adjusts the team's offense.

Although the old fish runs slowly, he has rich experience.

Only with Fisher can the Lakers' offense be strengthened.

Mike Brown knows this very well, and he understands it very well at the same time.

If this Lakers play against the Timberwolves, Thunder, or Spurs, there will be no good results.

They are too old.

They can't be very competitive in the playoffs.

Mike Brown didn't mess up, he really had no choice.

Of course, no one dares to underestimate Kobe's team.

After all, this is a macho man who scored 81 points in a single game. Before Bai Yi entered the league, many scoring records were set by Kobe.

Coupled with the bonus of Staples playing at home, no one dares to underestimate the Lakers playing at home.

"beep!"

The whistle sounded and the game officially started. Bynum and Pekovic grabbed the ball. This time Pekovic was more focused, jumped up and gave the ball to Bai Yi.

As soon as Bai Yi caught the ball, Walders pounced on him, just by himself.

The Lakers did not arrange for two people to double-team this time.

Bai Yi glanced at Walders, without any pause, he accelerated the ball and rushed towards the left side of Walders.

Woldes followed Bai Yi closely, squeezing Bai Yi with his body and preventing Bai Yi from starting easily.

Kobe was guarding Reggie, and everyone else was performing their duties.

Bai realized that there was no way to make a fast break, so he stopped outside the three-point line, then continuously changed his rhythm, and then raised his hand to make a three-pointer.

He didn't use any three-pointers from the game.

It's just an ordinary three-point shot. In the game against the Heat, he maxed out his long-range shooting attributes. His current three-point value in the game is 100.

Bai Yi has observed that if he does not use the full-court three-point skill or other skills, then his average three-point shooting percentage per game is about 42%.

The shooting percentage of 42% is already considered the top three-point shooting rate in the league.

NBA legendary star and former three-point champion Reggie Miller averaged 42% of his three-point field goals in just two seasons.

His career three-point field goal percentage is 39%.

For example, the current three-point king Ray Allen has a career average shooting percentage of 40%.

So Bai Yi's three-point shooting percentage is really good.

There are some role players, such as Cole, who averages 45% of three-pointers per game, but he shoots less and usually takes care of the ball.

He has no ability to shoot three-pointers independently and can only shoot some open balls.

Ray Allen and Reggie Miller are the most representative.

At this time, the basketball flew up, crossed an arc, and flew into the net.

Mike Brown frowned on the sidelines. He lamented that Bai Yi's three-point shot was more comfortable and more beautiful.

It has a bit of Kobe's picturesque feel.

What's going on?

Can Bai Yi's three-point shooting improve?

He couldn't imagine how Bai Yi's terrifying three-pointers were still improving and how other teams could survive. Anyway, the Lakers could only depend on God's will.
