Chapter 789: New Lakers II
The players on both sides stood still, with the Warriors dressed in black and the Lakers in classic gold.
Tyson Chandler and Andrew Bynum stood in the center circle, Andrew Bynum looked like a good baby, and in the entire Lakers team, it seemed that only he did not have any tattoos on his body, and his face was beautiful, and he still looked like a student.
The two men folded their arms and jumped together as the referee threw the ball.
Tyson jumped to win the tee, and Byron Davis advanced with the ball.
"Old Fish" Derrick Fisher is responsible for defending Byron Davis, Fisher was a small fish when he left the Lakers a few years ago, and now he has returned to Los Angeles, but he has become an old fish.
Fisher's defense is really good, with strong muscles, more than a lot of youngsters.
Byron didn't want to use speed to break through, simply dribbled under the crotch, and after trying to change direction and break through, he found Yang Di's blocking and dismantling cover, and the two of them blocked and dismantled in the high position.
Byron moved to the line, and Fisher and Garnett were involved in the delay of Byron Davis.
The moment the two came together, Byron Davis's dribbling left hand shook slightly, and the second hit the ground passed to Yang Di, who dribbled directly to the basket.
The moment Byron Davis passed, Kevin Garnett stepped back, and when the ball was delivered to Jandy, Garnett caught up like a shadow, and the speed of lateral movement was visible.
Yang Di controlled the ball with his right hand, blocked the block with his left hand, gathered strength, and leaned towards Garnett's body.
"Bang!"
The huge strength and weight, accompanied by high-speed movement, produced a strong impact, Rao is Kevin Garnett, who was also knocked out of the way by Yang Di.
Yang Di's center of gravity was stable, his legs bent his knees and jumped heavily to the bottom line, Bynum did not assist in defense, and Yang Di turned over and jumped.
Garnett's long arm reached over and directly covered the highest point of Yang Di's shot, forming a serious interference.
"Bell!"
Young's jumper was missed, and the rebound was allocated by Bynum to Kobe Bryant.
The Warriors missed the attack in the first round, and after the Lakers replaced Garnett and Fisher, it was obvious that there was a strong interior and outside defense to block Yang Di's offense.
The Lakers attacked, and Fisher advanced with the ball.
Kobe and Garnett crossed two to cover, Kobe Bryant received the ball from the elbow area to the three-point line 45 degrees, he had the ability to shoot three-pointers, Ray Allen did not dare to let go of his shot, and he was very close to him.
Kobe Bryant didn't rush to play alone, but directly turned the ball and handed it to Garnett, who was back in the elbow area, to hold the ball.
The ball of the first ball, he actually handed it over to Kevin Garnett, who should be said to be the "second leader"!
Garnett singled out Yang Di, Yang Di raised one hand high, Garnett was a tentative step attack, with the ability to shoot in the middle, Yang Di did not dare to let him go easily.
After two probes, he jumped up and pulled it out.
Yang Di stretched out his hand to interfere, Garnett's long arm was raised high, and Yang Di couldn't cover him.
"Huh!"
Basketball hollow into the net.
2-0, Garnett clenched his fist and hammered his chest, as if venting long-standing pressure and doubts.
Yang Di turned his head to look at the basket and shook his head in his heart, Garnett's jump shot is difficult to defend, as a big forward, he is actually several centimeters shorter than Garnett, plus the arm span is behind, like Nowitzki or Gasol's jump shot, Yang Di can only rely on the bounce to gamble and defend, and this kind of defense is not desirable and actively avoided.
Kobe Bryant was very satisfied, Garnett is not only good defensively, but also strong on the offensive end.
Warriors attack,
Byron Davis holds the ball and blocks it from the outside.
After Byron broke through the middle and Fisher was blocked, the Lakers switched to Byron Davis while shrinking the defense and putting pressure on Byron Davis who was holding the ball.
Davis wanted to split the ball to the left side, but as soon as he raised his hand, a yellow figure came out directly, stretched out his hand and broke it!
"Kobe!"
The fans exclaimed,
The back of the 24th appeared in the captured shot, and Kobe Bryant was one man and ball, rushing in front of everyone.
In the frontcourt, Kobe Bryant faced Danny Granger's defense in the fast break, twisted his waist and swayed, dodged the block and pulled the rod for a layup.
Backhand hit.
4-0, the Lakers took the lead in the opening game.
"Mine!"
Byron raised his hand to indicate that it was his responsibility, and he controlled the dribble with one hand, but there was no panic on his face, and he was not in a hurry to direct the Warriors players to run.
Yang Di still received the ball at a step inside the three-point line, and made hand-to-hand pass covers with Ray Allen outside the three-point line.
Ray Allen single-blocked a cover shot and hit a mid-range jumper in the face of Garnett's interference.
"Some people say that the Lakers' configuration is similar to the Warriors who won the championship last year, that is, a star combination of a shooting guard and a power forward, and Ray Allen, like Kobe, are both leaders of the class of '96, and both have very good scoring memories."
"Ray Allen's pull-up jump shot is amazing, you see his wrist pressed down, it's so beautiful!"
Zhang Weiping said with a smile, of course, whoever scores a goal means who is good, no matter how the goal is scored, it is a good goal if it can be scored.
Lakers position offense.
Bynum's pick-and-roll coverage is of high quality, and the young man is not very old, but he has a wide body, and when he stands that way, he can easily block the outside defenders.
With the help of Bynum's cover, Kobe Bryant got the space inside, dribbled sideways, and encountered Yang Di's pursuit.
He wanted to pass to his teammates in the open position, but the Warriors compressed the space very small, and the pass could be wrong, Kobe Bryant fixed his gaze, made a wrong step, bent his knees on the ground, raised his hands, raised up, and made a shooting gesture.
A defensive master like Yang Di inevitably made a mistake, and was deceived by Kobe Bryant's fake action shooting and jumped first.
Fortunately, there was a long distance between the two, and Yang Di adjusted his body in the air to avoid Kobe's cylinder, so as not to be fouled by him.
Bryant played a time gap, jumped up again at this rhythm, and shot with a backward angle.
"Huh!"
Hitting a steady hollow shot, the Lakers opened with a good feel for the whole team, leading the Warriors 6-2.
Yang Di shook his head, defenders are sometimes very passive, he has a lot of blocks per game, most of them are because he has the best timing, but sometimes he will suffer some losses.
At 7 minutes and 44 seconds in the first quarter, Yang Di seized the opportunity, broke through directly to the basket from the middle, broke away from the defensive Bynum, and scored a strong attack under the basket, which hit his first sports goal of the game.
The Lakers have always been dominant, and after Yang Di's tough goal, the Warriors hit two 3-pointers in a row from the outside to tie the score at 14.
Phil Jackson immediately called a timeout, and the noisy Staples was very lively.
Compared to the other day, in Sacramento, Seattle, these small ball markets, it is simply a day and a place.
