Chapter 69 (1/2)
Barnes is confused by what link said. He doesn't know what tricks the boy is playing, but he knows he can't give him a chance to dunk easily.
The Lakers attack, this set of second lineup offensive core is undoubtedly Odom. As a strong contender for the best sixth man of the year, Odom averaged 14.4 points per game, which is beyond the reach of the rest of the Laker bench.
Odom played in the fifth position, his opponent is the top 2.21 meter tall tower bit.
If basketball was a height only game, Odom would be a total loser. But it is a pity that after such a long development, a number of basketball players have proved that the strength on the basketball court has nothing to do with height.
It's similar to Mutombo II, but it's nothing like Mutombo II.
Odom in the middle of the ball, just a few steps over the 2.21 meters ”big black mountain.”.
”It's too slow. Talbot is too slow. This may be the most failed draft in the history of the Grizzlies. There are still excellent players like Haden, curry and Derozan behind him, but they chose him. At the moment, tapit is no better than last season. His most proud defense, it seems, is just like that
With a sigh from the local commentary in Los Angeles, Odom easily broke through tabbit and got the lay up.
In fact, Phil Jackson rarely let Odom play center. Generally, he would leave one of Gasol and Bynum to play the fifth position, and then use Odom to play power forward. But today, it is precisely because of the encounter with tabbit, ”Zen master” dare to let his championship double tower rest.
After all, tabbit is not a threat on the inside, with his top physical talent.
The score was leveled again and Odom laughed and accepted the cheers of all the home fans. Link secretly regretted that the attack he had just made was in vain.
This time, Barnes looked at link differently. Barnes was annoyed to be teased by a draft.
”This time your little tricks won't work, boy!” Before link caught the ball, Barnes leaned forward. His defense is very fierce and his physical contact is very frequent.
But link didn't get used to it very much. Every time he practiced defense with Tony Allen these days, he would be treated the same way and suffered fierce confrontation from defensive players. Link was used to it.
Link was still looking for a chance to attack when he was blocked. He called Darrell Arthur to help him with the no ball cover. Now this lineup, if they don't attack, there will be no scorers.
By O.J. Mayo? That guy would have been a superstar if he could be trusted. After all, at the beginning, but was rated as the upper limit of Jordan, the lower limit of Kobe.
Arthur's cover and completely block Barnes, the guy is now completely a mad dog. However, in the fleeting gap, link still received the basketball.
Lynch immediately with the ball to the inside, the Laker team shrinking, Barnes is also constantly put pressure on link.
”Jackson” Jackson's mouth slightly raised, this time the defense of the Lakers is very beautiful, that No. 0 shot, only be blocked or shot.
However, link suddenly turns around on his left leg. Because Barnes pursues too hard, but because of the inertia, he is thrown away by link.
After getting rid of Barnes, link, one step inside the free throw line, threw it gently. A seemingly random shot, even funny. It's like a layman who can't play basketball and throws the ball into the air at will.
Accustomed to Kobe's picturesque posture, link's throw is really ugly. But the media and fans in Los Angeles couldn't laugh at it, because link's posture was ugly and his throwing was soft and hollow.
Far from the basket in the penalty area, this seemingly random throw is sometimes more accurate than shooting. As an all-purpose offensive player, Grant Hill can throw this weapon that belongs to the guard. In that case, link can't waste hill's ability.
”With a small throw in the penalty area, link got rid of Matt Barnes. His singles ability was better than we thought. Indeed, he is a team player. But one on one, in addition to a little less athletic ability, there are advantages everywhere
The local commentators in Los Angeles are relatively neutral in explaining the game. After all, it is a big city, and many people pay attention to it. If you say something wrong, it's easy to make mistakes.
The smile on Phil Jackson's face disappeared as the basketball entered. He thought it would be more than enough to defend against a drop in the draft with Barnes, but now Barnes has been scored two goals in a row.
Barnes can't hang on his face. Just because he was too angry, he exerted too much force. He wanted to scare the boy with fierce defense, but he was caught.
The Grizzlies took the lead again. Link scored two goals in a row. The two goals were very resolute. Undoubtedly, he took the responsibility as an attack core.
Basketball game, the selfless when selfless, but also selfish when selfish. Now the Grizzlies have no offensive point in this lineup. If link chooses to pass the ball again, what will Hollins do with him?So far, Hollins is very satisfied with link's performance. But the headache is that link's efforts are meaningless if tarbitt keeps losing points.
This time, the Laker's ball still hit Odom's hand, he and link played the same role, the scoring point of the second lineup.
Odom has a lot of self-confidence. He's a big, stupid guy like tabbit. He can play as he likes. But this time, when Odom broke through tabbit with the ball, he just took the first step, Odom felt that the basketball was out of control!
Looking down, link didn't know when to come, stretched out his arm from the side and broke the ball!
In the other side dribbles the first step to help defend to snatch is the easiest success, this kind of experience ordinary rookie may not have. Hill as a forward, peak period in the playoffs can get 2 steals per game, which is very difficult. Even in his twilight years, Hill's steals were superb. So link inherited Hill's sense of snatch.
Link is not as mobile as peak hill, but his longer arm span makes up for that. What's more, Odom's center of gravity is really high, so it's not too hard to steal him.
