The rest is just noise

Kang Chengbiaoshuai was intercepted by Wilson in just five seconds.

From this shot, Louis could see that Kang Chengbiao's claim that he could play in any position was an element of bragging.

At least he can't play the No. 1 position.

He can indeed dribble the ball a few times, but if he encounters an above-average defense, it will be difficult for him to dribble smoothly.

After Wilson stole the ball, he passed the ball to Kobe on the balcony.

Kobe Bryant dunked directly and scored the first goal for the Lakers.

2 to 0

The Lakers retreated, and Louis stood on the sidelines and called out to Garnett, "Jasmine, you guard No. 6 (Kang Chengbiao)."

This also means that Barkley needs to face Mourning.

This arrangement makes the Cavaliers' offense simpler. They only need to find ways to pass the ball to Mourning.

The Cavaliers' lineup is excellent for centers who are eager to make a difference on the offensive end.

@The starting five, except for Mourning himself, the other four can pull out and shoot three-pointers.

Few other insiders of the same era could have such a comfortable offensive space.

Barkley's defense was hard to count on. The Cavaliers made a few passes and allowed Mourning to successfully receive the ball. The moment Mourning took the ball, the image of rookie Ewing flashed in front of Louis' eyes.

Feint the ball, pass it out, and continue to claim position.

He squeezed in just to get closer to the basket.

In this era where players can have their backs to the basket unlimited, it is too easy to attack inside.

Mourning squeezed Barkley into the paint, and Mourning received the pass again.

This time, Louis thought silently, pushed forward, stepped forward, turned around and voted.

Mourning's subsequent actions were as he predicted, not a single step was wrong.

The funny thing is that although Mourning felt good about taking the shot, he still failed.

"All the insiders from Georgetown have this kind of virtue!" Louis remembered the bitterness of training Ewing. "That idiot just made a fake move and I knew he had something bad in his crotch!"

Nelson instinctively felt that the "idiot" Louis mentioned was not referring to Mourning.

Barkley grabbed the defensive rebound and the Lakers wanted to play fast, but the Cavaliers seemed to have decided to give up fighting for offensive rebounds and retreated at full speed to prevent the Lakers from picking up the rhythm.

Falling into a positional battle, Barros dribbled the ball at the top of the arc, stretched out his left hand to show two fingers indicating victory, and then hung the two fingers upside down to form an upside-down V.

Garnett followed the order and pretended to pick and roll from the left, but suddenly turned and circled to Burrows' right side.

Mourning has many of Ewing's original bad habits, but there is one thing in Georgetown that Louis can't hack, and that is his very good habit of guarding against pick-and-rolls.

Mourning knows how to select positions just like Ewing did in the past.

However, Garnett's pick-and-roll failed to land in the end. Whether he ran to the left or circled to the right, it was just a confusing move.

When Mourning thought he was going to stop and build a wall, he suddenly accelerated down the road.

Mourning couldn't judge his intention for a while.

In less than a second's hesitation, Garnett gave way to the Avenue of Heaven.

Barros casually lobbed the ball, and Garnett caught the ball and dunked.

4 to 2

When Garnett returned to defense, Barros was still dissatisfied with his tactical execution: "Your running rhythm can be faster."

"Db, you are easier to get into trouble than my buddies!" Garnett laughed.

"Don't be so playful!"

"OK."

Barros is definitely a veteran who is not liked by rookies. He has very strict requirements and is extremely harsh on newcomers. Even a second-year player like Garnett will be criticized if he messes up a little bit.

Louis became increasingly satisfied with Barros's deal.

Kang Chengbiao took the ball from a high position, handed it over first, and then used his body to cover Van Exel.

Van Exel fired decisively as soon as he had the opportunity and hit a pull-up three-pointer from the outside.

"Hmph, do you know how powerful my son is?" Kang Chengbiao shouted to Barros.

Louis didn't care about the ball and just reminded Garnett: "Jasmine, if you encounter such cooperation again, you must decisively attack their receiver, don't hesitate!

"

"no problem!"

Cavaliers head coach Mike Fratello did not create a unique tactical system for the team.

Louis heard that there were hundreds of tactics in his tactical manual, but only a dozen were used on a daily basis.

If the tactics can't work, just let Kang Chengbiao pass the ball to others.

They have no shortage of singles players.

Moreover, these singles players all have the attributes of a crazy knife. If they go crazy, they can compete with superstars.

The reason why the NeuroKnife is a NeuroKnife is that the probability of these people becoming neurotic is much greater than the probability of functioning as a "knife".

However, having so many nerve knives at the same time is a bit like raising a worm. Either no one will open, or it will explode on its own.

Either fire them together and explode on the opposite side.

Unlike the Cavaliers, the Lakers' play style is very reasonable.

The position is set, Garnett goes up to the high post for the pick-and-roll, Barkley goes down to the low post, and Wilson and Kobe are separated from each other.

The Cavaliers' defensive strategy remains completely unchanged, sticking to man-to-man.

The person Barkley is facing now is Mourning. Regardless of height or tonnage, he has no advantage.

When his teammates passed the ball, Barkley did not back up the ball. After two collisions, he turned around and faced the basket. With his divine power, he pushed away Mourning and forced his way into the penalty area to score.

This is a completely unreasonable goal.

"Chuck, if you can hit every ball like this, I'll eat donuts any way you want." Louis smiled and waved.

Barkley excitedly high-fived Louis and yelled, "You said that, coach!" Louis' use of Garnett can be described as willful.

Directly move people out of the inside line and go to the outside to face Kang Chengbiao.

It seems that this is an initiative to give the opponent a small mismatch.

There are certainly outsiders who can really beat Garnett with speed, but Kang Chengbiao is definitely not one of them.

"The principal really cares about people. He let a stupid guy like you guard me!"

It's not that Kang Chengbiao doesn't know Garnett's abilities. All the trash talk at this moment is just a psychological offensive.

Garnett never refuses trash talk, "If you're a stupid guy, then you're a stupid dwarf!"

Kang Chengbiao barely managed to get past Garnett by half a body, but was unable to get rid of him. If he broke through to the end, it would be difficult to score even if there were no other people to defend him.

Since he couldn't get away, Kang Chengbiao simply stopped and threw.

"boom!"

Although the Cavaliers are full of crazy guys who like to shoot and kill, Kang Chengbiao is a prolific shooter himself. Joining forces with these teammates is like a perfect match.

The Cavaliers didn't score, but Barkley failed to protect the defensive rebound.

Mourning hit the ball in the air and into the basket.

4 to 4

"Jasmine!"

Wilson shouted.

Garnett understood and served quickly.

Wilson received the serve from outside the three-point line, turned around and shook away Jim Jackson who was about to foul him, rushed to the frontcourt and was defended by Kang Chengbiao.

Kobe shot through the diagonal line like an arrow.

Wilson turned sideways and hit the pass with one hand without looking at anyone, and skillfully sent the ball to Kobe's hands.

Kobe then made a gliding layup and scored his fourth point of the night.

"Benj, I thought you went to Los Angeles in despair to be the boss, but I didn't expect you still look like the second child."

Kang Chengbiao laughed and said, "If it were Patrick, this ball would definitely not be passed."

"Come on, Kang, you have a lot of sons to take care of, and I have a lot of high school students to discipline, so stop talking about that nonsense."

Wilson, like other veterans, did not want to be aroused by Kang Chengbiao's trash talk.

Kobe on the side did not forget to brush up on his presence: "You keep saying you want to guard me, but now I have scored 4 points, where is your defense?"

"What are you proud of? The two goals you scored could have been scored by any junior high school student. Just wait until you score under my defense."

It has to be said that Kang Chengbiao has a very powerful mouth, and few people on the field can outshine him.

However, his method does not care about Wilson.

use.

Wilson basically ignored him. Even if the two of them were to play singles, it would be difficult for Kang Chengbiao to guard him.

In Kobe's first start, he played for 5 consecutive minutes. During this period, he took 4 shots and scored 6 points. It is worth mentioning that he basically did not mess around on the court.

Attack the ball as eagerly as before.

All four of his shots were opportunity balls that could be directly attacked after receiving the ball, which shows his enthusiasm for running.

For Louis, Kobe's real highlight wasn't his catch-and-shoot after four moves.

Because as a rookie who is starting for the first time, even if he wants to perform again, he has to consider the actual situation.

If the coaching staff is dissatisfied with his first start, then he doesn't know when he will have to wait until his next start.

So he should move honestly, play the ball in a disciplined manner, not seeking merit, but seeking no faults. This is his idea.

Kobe's real highlight was defense.

After Stevens' guidance and special training, Kobe's defensive skills and understanding of defense have improved a lot compared to the training camp.

Jim Jackson, who is not good at moving without the ball, disappeared under his defense for five minutes.

Kobe's defense caused Jackson to evaporate on the court, and he himself scored 6 points by relying on off-the-ball running and active fast breaks.

When Louis replaced him, he pretended to ask: "Sir, was there anything wrong with my game just now?"

Louis rolled his eyes.

"There are still problems."

"What? What's my flaw?"

Something didn't feel right about Kobe. He was so abiding by the rules. What flaws could there be?

Was it the missed shot?

Indeed, it's a pity that the ball didn't go in, but who can always hit it?

No, just because other people can't hit the target perfectly, doesn't mean I can't do it either.

Yes, that must be the case.

Kobe was thinking this, but the answer he got from Louis was enough to ruin his outlook: "You just played too reasonably, and it was so steady that it made me want to vomit. If you were a little more unreasonable, it would be perfect."

Kobe returned to the bench and sat down without realizing it.

Big Ben touched his arm, "Did the coach praise you?"

Kobe replied like a robot: "I played too reasonably and the coach didn't like it."
