Chapter 314: Winning in Singles (Happy New Year)
June 8th.
Bryant said in an interview:
"We won easily? It's completely non-existent, we give it our all in every game and work hard for the championship and that's the fundamental reason why we win. The Lakers are the most wanted team in the league, and I'm the strongest player, and that's why the Lakers were able to win. ”
"This year's championship must belong to the Lakers."
Bryant was unceremoniously speaking.
None of the rest of the Magic team retorted.
But Qin Yang stood up:
"Kobe Bryant is right, the Lakers are really strong, I can't say anything about that, but the Lakers have been able to win, it's not necessarily, and I'll prove it in this game."
Qin Yang began to choke before the game.
Don't push your head to dry.
The Magic have run out of options.
The game started quickly, with both sides jumping the ball.
Howard's momentum was sluggish, but Bynum was obviously a little careless, and was dialed by Howard, and the first ball Magic team attacked.
Qin Yang dribbled over the half, Rashad Lewis directly covered it, and after the cover, Qin Yang asked Artest and Kobe Bryant to help defend, but the Lakers did not give a chance.
Qin Yang wanted to make a move against the old fish Fisher, which was unrealistic.
Therefore, the best opportunity is to play against Kobe.
The rest of the Magic team has no chance, and the only chance is Qin Yang. At this time, Qin Yang chose to play singles.
Holding the ball and facing Kobe, Qin Yang directly lowered the center of gravity, and when he lowered the center of gravity, Kobe did not dare to move forward, because Qin Yang's breakthrough was easy to succeed.
Kobe Bryant kept half a body distance and defended carefully.
But at this time, Qin Yang jumped up directly and shot a three-point shot.
Two steps beyond the three-point line.
Sou!
hit an ultra-long-range three-point shot, and it was too late for Kobe to react.
Three-point shot.
Qin Yang stepped back very easily, and glanced at Kobe Bryant with disdain.
Kobe Bryant was on fire when he saw this.
The Lakers attacked, the old fish Fisher passed the ball to Kobe Bryant after half time, Kobe Bryant singled Barnes, Barnes defense was also very good, but this ball Kobe Bryant made a foul.
Kobe Bryant's offensive skills have really reached their peak this season.
However, seeing this goal, Qin Yang exhaled lightly.
The Magic team attacked, Qin Yang still held the ball and singled, and this time Qin Yang crossover wanted to break through. Artest directly carried Qin Yang hard, and pushed it hard with his arm.
Qin Yang immediately fell to the ground and threw out the three-point shot before falling to the ground.
The three-point shot was naturally iron, but Qin Yang got three free throws.
While Artest was still muttering dissatisfied, Qin Yang was ready to make free throws.
Hitting three free throws steadily, Qin Yang exhaled lightly:
"This game can be played."
Although the Lakers' offense is powerful, the most terrifying thing is the defensive ability, the Lakers' starters can form a terrifying five-star lineup, such a lineup, the Magic team is helpless.
Therefore, if the Magic want to win, they must find the flaws of the Lakers.
Qin Yang must stand up.
The Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant was still holding the ball and playing single, successfully hitting the iron, Rashad Lewis got the rebound and passed to Qin Yang, Qin Yang dribbled through the half court to cover his teammates, Petrus broke through, and the basket met the defense to hit the iron, but Qin Yang got the basketball and successfully made a layup.
The Lakers went on offense.
Pau Gasol assists Artest for a layup.
Artest pounded his chest and roared.
Artest used to be an All-Star level player, forming a Big Three in the Rockets, but unfortunately he didn't win the championship, and now he is hugging his thighs when he comes to the Lakers.
But in this way, the Lakers' lineup is too strong.
The Magic team attacked, this time Qin Yang singled Kobe Bryant with the help of cover, and used the rhythm to open up a little space, and then jumped directly to shoot a three-point shot, and the three-point shot hit iron.
Bryant turned and got the rebound.
The Lakers attacked, and Kobe Bryant hit the iron again.
Kobe Bryant's strong offense with the ball is actually not very efficient. For example, Kobe's backward jumper is the first person after Jordan, but the backward jumper after holding the ball has a shooting rate of less than 40%.
It's a little awkward.
Howard got the rebound and singled Kobe Bryant again from beyond the three-point line.
Kobe Bryant carefully defended Qin Yang's three-point shot, but Qin Yang broke through with a Buddha pass, and then hit a mid-range board and successfully hit Kobe.
The Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant took the ball and continued to play alone, and this time Kobe Bryant's beautiful breakthrough hit a wonderful layup under the basket.
Well, it's two points if there's no problem.
The Magic team attacked, Qin Yang was very uncomfortable defended by Kobe this time, Kobe's defensive action was too big, and if he replaced someone else, the referee blew the whistle.
Qin Yang broke through to the basket and passed directly to Howard, who took the ball and jumped the ball and scored a direct dunk.
The Lakers attacked, Pau Gasol passed Bynum, Bynum successfully hit the iron, Rashad Lewis got the rebound, the Magic team attacked again, and Qin Yang hit a three-point shot directly with the help of cover this time.
Kobe Bryant and Artest were a little slower, and Qin Yang was not relenting at all.
Kobe Bryant was hit with such a ball, and he was directly angry.
Turning around to get the ball is a single, Barnes did not hesitate, directly forced a foul, the two have a top bull, Kobe Bryant has no suspense of free throws, and the free throw shooting rate of 1 in 2 is very average.
Qin Yang continued to play singles, Petrus covered, and Artest and Kobe Bryant were directly sandwiched.
Petrus was vacant on the outside, received a pass from Qin Yang, and hit a three-point shot.
Qin Yang's role is a bit like James, in the Cavaliers, James is so big, he attacks with the ball, no one is a single, and someone wraps and passes to the outside open pitcher.
I can't say that this kind of treatment is bad, it's just too stiff.
If Petrus is very strong without the ball, and the shooting rate is terrifying, he can pull the space and attract the defense, and Qin Yang's shot will be much easier at that time.
Bryant held the ball and hit the iron again with a single shot.
The tactics of the Magic team are very simple and rude, with Qin Yang as the main single, if his teammates have a chance, Qin Yang passes the ball, but in the first quarter, Qin Yang was 6 of 9 and 3 of 6 three-pointers, and directly scored 16 points and 4 assists, leading the Magic team to take the lead.
The Lakers almost all of the shooting power is in Kobe's hands, but Kobe Bryant has a very poor hand and pits the team.
At the end of the first quarter, the atmosphere of the Lakers was not very good.
When he was off the court, Kobe Bryant was alone, while the rest of the Lakers were together, and there was a momentum of common hatred.
"Paul, you can't go on like this!"
Ci Shiping pulled Pau Gasol and whispered.
Pau Gasol shook his head and said nothing.
If it goes on like this, Kobe Bryant will definitely kill his teammates, but now the Lakers can't say that Gasol's data in the first two games is off the charts, and if it goes on like this, Kobe Bryant's MVP will be choked.
When the team has already won two away games, Pau Gasol will not be silent.
