Chapter 1408 Chapter 1407
Liu Mang hurried up to be between Swift and Radmanovich. Liu Mang happened to see Swift's legs pinched, so he just protected Swift.
This guy has nothing to say about his physical fitness, but his brain... is really hard to describe...
Kobe also rushed over immediately. Because his back was turned, Kobe turned his head and didn't see what happened. He just thought it was Radmanovich who was angry when he was dunked. Don't look at this guy as a white pitcher with a temper, just like the legendary Italian version of Nowitzki.
"What are you doing? Go away!" Kobe said to Liu Mang.
"I do not!"
"Go away!"
"If you want to go, you go, this is my site, and I am the master of my site."
"..."
The nearest star players of the two teams only took actions to protect their own players. After the referee stopped the game, he came up to separate the gradually gathering people of the two teams.
Probably because of the angle of view or attention was paid to other people's off-ball fouls at the time, the referee didn't see Swift's action, and the first time he whistled was Radmanovic's technical foul.
Radmanovich exploded immediately!
"Asshole, he...he...he..." Radmanovich finally didn't say what happened just now, and cursed, and finally he could only hey hey and didn't know what to say.
But this bastard made the referee immediately put the whistle in his mouth again.
Kobe immediately went up and said: "Sir, basketball is like this, he is so excited."
Although the Eagles have the home court advantage, the Lakers called the technical foul for the first time in this conflict, but Kobe was embarrassed, and the referee did not continue to call the technical foul by relying on the zero tolerance system, and signaled Swift to make a technical free throw.
Zen master asked assistant coach Brian Xiao to replace the skier, and went to discuss with the referee what happened just now. Not many people on the court could see clearly, but he could see clearly.
Watching Swift walk to the free-throw line, Zen master said to the referee: "The player who made the free throw just made a non-basketball action."
"I see clearly," said the referee.
"Of course, we also have non-basketball moves here, I think you should see clearly." Zen Master said and returned to the bench.
With Wang Zhizhi replaced and Radmanovich replaced, the Lakers' lineup remains unchanged.
32 to 33, the Eagles took advantage of the home court and won a technical foul without watching the replay, chasing the point difference to 1 point.
There was no replay on the scene, and there was no reaction. The fans and commentators in front of the TV saw the replay and made the referee miserable.
But this is basketball, and Liu Mang won't take the initiative if he takes advantage of it.
"In general, the shooting and movement are not as good as the skier, but the height is more advantageous, and the offensive end is more difficult to defend. The Lakers should not let Yao continue to attack in the second quarter, or Yao will not be able to play in the second half..." Looking at the current lineup of the Lakers, Liu Mang immediately analyzed the advantages and disadvantages.
Just as Liu Mang expected, after the Chinese twin towers teamed up, Kobe began to take advantage of Yao Ming's containment of the basket and his own ability to attract flankers, and took the initiative to break through in the direction of Wang Zhizhi's left corner.
It was Grant Hill who defended Kobe. Although Kobe respected this veteran who entered the NBA earlier than him, the veteran was plagued by injuries, which happened to be a point that Kobe took advantage of.
Indeed, Grant Hill's movement is not as fast as Battier's, and his confrontation is not as strong as Granger's, but...his abilities are too balanced, and they are balanced beyond the average level. He has excellent anticipation ability and excellent defensive awareness, blocking Kobe in the middle distance!
Kobe is very similar to Grant Hill. Kobe ranks among the top five on the outside in almost all abilities, breakthrough, shooting, low post, three-threat, high post... Almost all of them are in the top five or even top three outside the league, but none of them are always ranked first.
He can't beat Andre Miller in low post singles, can't beat Wade in the first step, can't beat McGrady in the first three steps, Prince's speed is not top-notch, and he can defend Kobe because of this.
When Grant Hill joined the Eagles, he regarded the Lakers as his main opponent to win the championship in the future. After studying for a long time how Prince defended against Kobe, Grant Hill was definitely not as good at defending against other stars as Prince.
Liu Mang was surprised to see Kobe blocked by Grant Hill!
This is what he expects from Grant Hill. For the 2010 Western Conference Finals in the original time and space, Grant Hill has a deep memory of Kobe’s defense. In that round of the series, Grant Hill could give Kobe a steal and a block in almost every game. Negative is really hard to say.
"Ding... Rejecting the horse trigger, Kobe Bryant will use shooting as an inside method in this high position..."
"What's the matter? The wave shot is so nice." Liu Mang immediately let go of Claxton and shrunk in towards the basket. Marion also stuck to Wang Zhizhi who wanted to cut in.
Sure enough, Kobe made an emergency stop in the middle distance and wanted to help the board!
Grant Hill relied on his height advantage to interfere with Kobe's pull-up jumper very well. Kobe's shot hit the basket!
Yao Ming wanted to grab the offensive rebound, but Liu Mang and Swift caught him. Yao Ming pushed the two away, stretched out his hand, and flicked the ball that bounced high on the backboard.
However, Blake, who came in, grabbed the ball at the free throw line one step ahead of Kobe!
Stop it!
Using triple factors, it was prevented!
Taking advantage of Grant Hill's defensive ability beyond Kobe's expectations, Liu Mang's active contraction, and the most important feature of Kobe's play style of choosing to shoot instead of passing to the basket, he prevented this attack where the drug-addicted combination was on the court!
When the ball was shot by Yao Ming, Liu Mang flew out like an arrow, Blake passed the ball very steadily, and passed the ball to Liu Mang when Liu Mang crossed the center line.
Marion and Grant Hill also rushed down quickly. After Liu Mang received the ball, Claxton, Kobe, and Barnes who were retreating defended blocked Liu Mang and Marion. Liu Mang distributed the ball to Grant Hill who ran to the left of the free throw line. Kobe quickly blocked Grant Hill.
But... Grant Hill passed it again!
Swift rushed inside, received a pass from Grant Hill and scored two points!
When Liu Mang and Marion were blocked, Swift ate cake again!
Avoiding the defensive deterrence of Yao Ming's talent at the basket, and taking advantage of the slow speed of the opponent's two towers, the Eagles played a wave of fast breaks!
34 to 33, the Eagles lead by one point!
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Eagles played a wave of 5 to 0!
The Zen master blew his whistle to attract the referee's attention. This is his iconic action of calling a timeout in a critical moment. He didn't need to make a gesture, and the referee immediately blew the whistle.
The Lakers were suspended!
Coach Kruger held the tactical board in silence, but now his mind is at peace.
It succeeded again... This strange tactic actually succeeded again...
