Chapter 146 Kobe and Zhou Hang's Firepower!
The Lakers' substitutes were all cheering for Zhou Hang's defense.
Zhou Hang defended the ball beautifully, otherwise Kobe would not have had such an easy one-on-one chance.
Boozer himself shook his head, he didn't expect that he would be overshadowed by Zhou Hang.
Boozer remembered that Zhou Hang wasn't so aggressive during the regular season, so why is he improving now?
The Jazz's offense is back.
Deron held the ball forward, Zhou Hang moved with Deron's pace, and he focused on marking Deron's ball.
Delong has been trying to change directions to get rid of Zhou Hang, but no matter how he shakes, Zhou Hang's defense follows him like a shadow.
"Zhou Hang's defense improved rapidly, and Deron couldn't easily shake him off." Zhang Weiping shouted.
Ronnie Brewer didn't have a good chance against Kobe's defense either.
Boozer quickly put on the screen at this time.
pick and roll!
Zhou Hang and Gasol quickly switched defenses.
Gasol's speed was a little slower, and Deron found the opportunity to complete the breakthrough after the lateral move.
Deron broke into the inside, Odom's defense, Deron pass to Kirilenko in the bottom corner.
Kirilenko catches the ball at the mid-range position on the right baseline and makes a mid-range jumper.
Walton's defense is in place, but AK is too high.
The shot was solid.
"Shh!"
4:7.
Seeing another AK goal, Zhou Hang shook his head helplessly.
Kirilenko is a natural misalignment for Walton. Kirilenko is still a big man who can shoot, which makes Walton uncomfortable.
However, what they scored, the Lakers' offense can also score.
Zhou Hang didn't play the ball after dribbling the ball halfway, but called Gasol's screen.
"boom."
Gasol blocked Deron, Zhou Hang dribbled laterally, and Boozer assisted in the defense.
When Deron hit Gasol, he used a breakthrough after the pick-and-roll, but Zhou Hang didn't immediately go to the breakthrough. Zhou Hang first chose to pull Boozer away for solo practice.
The Lakers opened up space for everyone.
The fans at the scene started chanting.
The dislocation singles between Zhou Hang and Kobe is the main offensive method of the Lakers guard.
Zhou Hang often misplaced on the outside, while Kobe went to the inside to dislocate.
"boom"
"boom"
"boom"
Zhou Hang faced Boozer with three consecutive crotch hits.
Boozer swayed with Zhou Hang's rhythm, and he focused on blocking Zhou Hang's step-back three-pointer.
Boozer's defense is not good, and Zhou Hang can easily find a space on the left.
Change direction and step in.
Zhou Hang observed while breaking through.
In the short-range left position, Kirilenko's rhythm was staggered, and a short-range jumper was pulled up neatly.
Compared with Kobe's mid-range shots, Zhou Hang's shots are either close-range or mostly three-pointers.
Zhou Hang's shot is very high and steady!
"Shh!"
The basketball goes into the frame with precision.
4:9.
"Oh, this is a situation that everyone often saw in the last round of the playoffs. The Lakers started with Zhou Hang scoring consecutively."
"Zhou Hang's short-range jumper shooting percentage is very problematic, ranking in the top three in the league."
"The Jazz will often face Zhou Hang's move. I hope they can withstand such offensive pressure."
"The Lakers showed championship-level offensive and defensive strength, and the Jazz were suppressed at the beginning of the game."
The TNT commentator was chatting away.
The offense on the field comes again.
Deron dribbles to the frontcourt.
The whole team of the Lakers put a lot of intensity on the Jazz. Zhou Hang was even more ruthless this time, and he pressed Deron directly.
Facing continuous body collisions, Deron protected the basketball with great experience.
Zhou Hang constantly interfered with Delong's vision, and Delong had to be afraid of Zhou Hang's wingspan.
Deron gives the ball to Ronnie Brewer.
Instead of hitting Kobe, Brewer gave the ball out to Kirilenko who circled.
The Jazz began to show their tactical execution ability, constantly interspersed, moved and transferred the ball.
In the end it was Boozer who singled out Gasol at the free throw line.
A mid-range jumper that Boozer backs Gasol and moves laterally after one step.
"frame!"
The basketball hit the rim and bounced high.
Boozer's chances are not good with this defensive intensity.
Kobe grabs the rebound.
Kobe Bryant dribbles half court by himself.
Kobe held the ball at the top of the arc, and as soon as he said hello, Zhou Hang went up to cover him.
With the guard's pick-and-roll cooperation, Zhou Hang took the initiative to create an opportunity for Kobe.
Bryant rushed in, stopped at the free throw line, and faced Boozer's defensive mid-range jumper.
There is interference with the ball, but it's not a big problem.
A picturesque pose.
"Shh!"
4:11.
Kobe gave Zhou Hang a high-five to celebrate: "The cover is beautiful."
Zhou Hang smiled.
The power of Zhou Hang and Kobe's cover lies in their strong offensive firepower. As long as there is a little gap in the defense, the two can use this gap to launch an attack.
Deron looked very headache.
The Lakers were not difficult to deal with when there was only Kobe, but after Zhou Hang and Gasol, the Lakers became particularly difficult to play.
This round of the series is going to be swept away again.
The pick-and-roll between Kobe and Zhou Hang was very simple, but the Jazz couldn't do anything about it.
Coach Sloan on the sidelines shouted: "Success rate, hit the ball in."
The Lakers' offense went smoothly, taking the initiative at home, and the cheers from the fans at the Staples Center became louder and louder, and the fans here also kept putting pressure on their opponents.
Jazz offense.
Deron signaled a little more steady attack.
Zhou Hang still exerted high-intensity defensive pressure on Deron.
After Deron went to the frontcourt, he came back with Boozer's pick-and-roll.
One stop and one break!
Boozer gets a small gap at the free throw line.
Gasol and Zhou Hang did not pounce on Boozer in time.
Boozer's mid-range pull-up jumper.
"Shh!"
6:11.
"You can switch defenses faster." Kobe reminded the two next to them.
Both Zhou Hang and Gasol nodded. They are the main force in defending the Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics, but not every time they can defend.
The Lakers players are very experienced, and they will make timely adjustments to the loopholes on the court.
Defending pick-and-rolls cannot be done by one person, it requires everyone to work together.
The Lakers attack.
Kobe dribbles upfield.
Zhou Hang moves on the right.
Deron tried to defend Zhou Hang's catch, but failed.
Zhou Hang received the ball with the help of Gasol's screen.
Chasing Boozer, Zhou Hang feinted a shot from the outside, attracting Boozer's center of gravity and immediately stepped to the right to break through.
Boozer's speed couldn't keep up, he could only watch Zhou Hang pass by his right side.
Okur helped defend Zhou Hang, and when everyone thought Zhou Hang would choose to pass the ball, Zhou Hang accelerated to occupy his position and forcibly flew to the basket from Okur's right side.
The ball was very difficult, and Zhou Hang lost his balance in order to make a layup.
Basketball hits the box.
6:13.
I can't help it at all.
Scored the ball on almost every offensive possession.
Sloan couldn't stand the situation.
"pause!!"
The Jazz's defensive strength seems to be great, but they can't even prevent a wave of offense from the Lakers.
Their offensive state is very hot, not only three-pointers from the outside, but also shots, fast breaks, and this kind of layups!
It's too hard to guard against!
