Chapter 800 [Forging without Double-Teaming, the Idea Is Not Clear]

The 31-year-old Chandler maintained his good form and was still a spring man. He easily won the jump ball and the game started.

Green received the ball and passed it to Curry. Before Chandler and Griffin could reach the basket, Curry suddenly took a shot in front of Blake, one meter outside the three-point line in the middle.

Blake didn't react at all, his body was still retreating, not jumping or reaching out.

Is this the mVp of last season? Is the shot selection too bad?

Then, he turned around and saw the basketball hollowly entering the net, swipe! 3 to o.

In just three seconds, Curry ignited the atmosphere in the audience, and many fans stood up and applauded. On the sidelines, Lakers coach Mike Brown felt a twitch in his heart, doubting that Blake could guard Curry.

Is there any need to doubt this kind of thing? Blake has always been a well-known floor defender and defensive black hole. How could he possibly guard Curry and other defenders who are good at scoring? But after Sessions left, Brown could only reuse this person.

When the Lakers attacked, Blake brought the ball to the frontcourt, passed it to Kobe, and pulled away himself.

Something that surprised everyone happened. The person Yang Rui arranged to defend Kobe was actually Middleton, a fringe player last season. The Clippers defended man-to-man with no one to help defend, and they followed the Lakers players to distance themselves.

Yang Rui's arrangement has two purposes. One is to attract Kobe to play in singles, and the other is to train Middleton and help him grow as quickly as possible.

He knew very well that Kobe was no longer at his peak, his scoring efficiency was not good, and too many singles would only lead the Lakers into a ditch. The only way for the Lakers to win is with more outside players making breakthroughs and attracting double-teams.

In this case, it is a good strategy not to double-team Kobe and let him play on his own, because now most of Kobe's shots are jump shots, breakthroughs have been reduced, and his jump shot shooting percentage is the second lowest among all offensive skills except tip-ins. of.

Middleton has height, length and wingspan, and is very good at disrupting shots. He was a marginal member of the Clippers last season, but he has never been idle. He trains very hard and does not conserve his energy. In addition to participating in team training, he also plays nBdL to hone his skills.

Middleton only coaches two abilities, three-point shooting and defense. He does a very good job guarding Gay and Parsons in the team. Both of them are breakthrough players and mainly shoot and score, whether they are pull-up jumpers or Middleton can use his long arms to interfere with turnaround jumpers.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Middleton played a pivotal role on the defensive end of the Bucks. The 2o14-15 season data shows that Middleton ranks 9th among all players in the league in terms of defensive plus-minus; and among all shooting guards, he ranks first. After his early years, he has been recognized as a defensive player. Expert Iguodala.

Facing the fast guard Middleton, he suffered a little disadvantage. He lacked explosive power and his speed was only average among swingmen. Among the Lakers, Nick Young is faster than Kobe, so Yang Rui arranged for Green to deal with Nick Young.

In short, letting Middleton play against Kobe is by no means looking down on Kobe, but the best choice. But on the surface, this is a contest between a marginal person and a star.

Kobe doesn't care whether the opponent's size is suitable for interfering with shooting. He only has one option left when receiving the ball, and that is to play singles with the ball.

If he chooses to pass the ball instead of one-on-one when facing marginalized players, Kobe has no clear idea because his opponent is too weak and he wants to abuse him.

When faced with role players who don't challenge one-on-one and choose to pass the ball, Kobe has no clear idea because his opponents are of average strength and he is confident of scoring high points.

When faced with a defensive expert who chooses to pass the ball instead of one-on-one, Kobe has no clear idea. Since his opponent's defense is strong, this is a great opportunity to prove his strength.

Well, unless a double-team is attracted and the one who is left open is a teammate that Kobe trusts, his first choice must be to shoot it himself.

Kobe failed to break through in one step. He turned his back to Middleton twice at 60 degrees on the right side, found the rhythm and steps, turned towards the baseline, and shot a 45-degree fadeaway jumper.

Middleton didn't stumble, and with the help of his teammates in the middle, he only had to prevent a side turn and successfully interfered with the shot. The ball bounced out of the frame. Chandler blocked Gasol, and Griffin easily grabbed the rebound.

Pass to Curry.

The Clippers immediately launched a counterattack. Curry advanced to the frontcourt without waiting for his teammates. He stepped outside the 70-degree three-point line on the right side and faced Blake for a shot. Without hesitation, he only had eyes for the basket.

Blake's reaction was half a beat too slow. He jumped up and couldn't cover it. He turned around and saw the ball draw a beautiful arc and hit the net hollowly.

6 to o. Curry had a seizure, and all the fans applauded.

Mike Breen yelled: "Bang! Curry's three-pointer!"

Van Gundy said: "I shot at someone twice in a row. It was very hasty and no teammates grabbed the rebound, but I scored. This is Curry, this is the new mVp."

Brin said: "Curry is not the same type of point guard as Paul, and he does not want to imitate Paul. His first choice is to shoot, not pass. Facing Blake, he shot very resolutely."

The Lakers attacked, and Kobe shot very resolutely. He couldn't break through with the ball, so he feinted with the ball. Middleton raised his center of gravity and raised his hands to interfere, but he didn't jump.

At this time, the ball carrier could no longer dribble or draw a foul. Most people would choose to pass the ball to their teammates, but Kobe was not an ordinary person. He jumped forward to avoid Middleton, leaning forward sharply, and his movements were very irregular. action to throw the ball toward the basket.

Most people don't know this kind of shooting technique because the hit rate is too low. Sure enough, there was just a bang, the ball bounced out of the frame, and Griffin easily grabbed the backcourt rebound.

Sean Williams is too weak as a power forward. He is 2o6cm tall and weighs only 1o2kg. He basically cannot grab rebounds. Last season he averaged 2.6 minutes per game with the Knicks and only 2.7 rebounds. This is a tragedy.

Gasol's rebounding in the past two years with the Lakers has been pretty good, but that's because his teammates created a lot of rebounds. He had nothing to do when Chandler was stuck in his position and couldn't rush forward.

Griffin passed to Curry, who advanced to the frontcourt. This time Blake defended closely, and Curry leaned back and passed the ball to the center.

Middleton came down quickly, took the ball without pausing, and passed it to Griffin who was rushing inside. Griffin relied on his strength advantage to carry Williams for a layup and caused a foul.

Griffin made the first free throw and missed the second free throw. 7 to o.

When the Lakers attacked, Blake passed the ball to Kobe, opened up and waited for opportunities, strictly following the tactics arranged by the coach. Mike Brown is a defensive coach. The only offensive tactic he is good at is to organize forwards, which is to spread the ball and combine the stars with the ball in the middle to break up and shoot.

In the Cavaliers, he relied on James, and now he relies on Kobe.

Kobe once again singled out Middleton, dribbling under his hips and moving laterally, making a sudden stop jump shot, but missed again due to interference.

Kobe's condition has seriously declined this season. He didn't practice much in the summer. Except for getting up twice at 4 a.m. to show fans at the request of the organizer during his trip to China, he spent the rest of his time participating in activities and taking vacations.

The Internet has been shouting for five years, "Kobe is 38 this year, whoever blames him will die." It is not unreasonable. It is normal for Kobe to lose to young people again and again. After all, Kobe is 35 years old this year, and it is inevitable that his physical fitness will decline. His jump shot is not as high as in the past, and it becomes easier to interfere. When taking shots against people under strong interference, it was difficult for Kobe Bryant to guarantee his hit rate even at his peak.

Chandler moved the ball out of the penalty area, and Green picked up the ball and passed it to Curry for a solo fast break.

Curry dribbled the ball under his hip and passed Blake. When Blake saw that no one was covering him, he hurriedly pulled the ball for a foul. When Curry was grabbed, he casually pushed the ball to the basket with one hand and hit the rebound. . The referee blows the whistle, 2+1.

Currie also made a free throw, scoring 9 points in the opening game, leading the Clippers 10 to 0 lead.
