Chapter 206 - Kobe Bryant

Sasha Danilovich shuddered at Bryant's smile.

Obviously Kobe has a warm and sunny smile, a smile that can kill thousands of girls, but in Sasha Danilovich's view, Kobe is like a demon, showing his fangs.

"Kobe, don't try to scare me! Without O'Neal, you are nothing!" Although Sasha Danilovich was flustered, his mouth was still firm.

Kobe smiled. When you were in the Heat and you had a top inside defender like Mourning, Kobe could score 47 points, let alone the Mavericks now.

Kobe not only wants to win this game, but also proves to everyone that the Lakers are still a top team without O'Neal!

Dribbling fast and slow, Kobe used rhythm changes and added an acceleration to squeeze past Sasha Danilovich's defense.

"Teaming! Double-teaming!" The Mavericks coach Jim Clemons on the sidelines certainly knew that Sasha Danilovich couldn't guard Kobe, so he arranged for Michael Finley to double-team!

Michael - Finley rushed forward, but still a step too late, Bryant with a clean mid-range to complete the game's first score.

Kobe waved to the booing fans in the arena, and this was just the beginning.

Leading the team with a single core, Kobe's principle of leading the team is to swallow the ball!

If it is said that when O'Neal was on the team before, Kobe's offensive choices were more or less hesitant, and some opportunities that were not considered good balls would be passed out to find opportunities.

So Kobe in this game explained what decisiveness is!

No more than 5 dribbles per offense!

The speed of handling the ball does not exceed 3 seconds each time!

Picks up the ball to quickly create space for the shot and releases quickly before the double-team is formed.

Two personal defenses? That's called a vacancy!

Three personal defenses? That's an opportunity!

"nice shot!"

The "mad scientist" Don Nelson, who was idle at home, patted his thigh vigorously. Looking at Kobe in this game, he was a little greedy!

"The perfect offensive finisher role, Kobe explained what is the core of the best offensive finisher."

Kobe was the offensive finisher he dreamed of, which was not seen in Kobe's previous games.

When O'Neal was not injured, Kobe's role was more of an offensive initiator, ball-handling core, and key scorer.

Players who play this way are not uncommon in the league. Stars such as Grant Hill, Penny Hardaway, Gary Payton, etc. all have such similar roles. It can also be said that this is currently the most popular and effective positioning as the core perimeter player of the team.

Kobe's style of play in this game is subversive!

The personal rhythm is perfectly integrated into the team rhythm, and the non-stick style of play keeps the team's offense running at high speed. The ultra-strong and ultra-fast offensive space manufacturing capability ensures the stability of the attack. Efficient shooting efficiency makes the team's overall offense look easy.

Combining the top running and pulling ability of the 20-year NBA career, he has created all kinds of magical running positions. The historical level of shooting ability makes Kobe's off-ball movement look full of pressure!

The core of a team's offensive end needs to make as few mistakes as possible and score efficiently. This is the foundation!

Kobe not only fulfilled these basics perfectly, but also maintained the normal operation of the team's tactical running positions at the same time! This is subversive.

"Triangle offense? No, it's not just a triangle offense. There are also some Princeton systems, horns and diamonds?" Don Nelson muttered to himself. He has been resting at home since he terminated his contract with the Knicks last season.

He previously believed that no player in the league was worthy of his return to coach. "Mad Scientist" wants to play something new, and few teams can provide him with this stage.

Even Kobe, who had seven consecutive 40+ games, did not make Nelson feel the desire to coach.

Kobe did it today!

"Mad Scientist" Nelson watched Kobe's every move like a rare jewel!

Elbow catch! Shoulder shaking! Take a step to the right, turn over and fade away for a jumper!

The bottom line circled Ben Wallace's pick-and-roll, accelerated to run outside the three-point line, and made a single-action shot!

Hand in hand with Eddie Jones, get rid of the defense and break through the basket, backhand high throw, and hit a layup!

"It's unbelievable! He's a praise from God." Don Nelson couldn't calm down. Except for a coach with the most experienced understanding of basketball like him, no one realized what Kobe's style of play meant.

"This is a brand new system! Kobe created a system!"

Many superstars often have their own systems. Jordan has an unsolvable heads-up system, Bill Russell has a defensive system, Magic has a SHOWTIME system, and LeBron has a breakthrough scoring system. When a superstar has their own system, they will inevitably become the leader of an era. No matter how strong or weak the teammates of the team are, their own system guarantees the lower limit!

A star with his own system is a star who can guarantee the team's lower limit, and this lower limit is often the playoffs!

As long as he brings four league-average players, maybe worse, Kobe can lead the team to the playoffs.

Magician can, and so can James.

This is the horror of players with their own system. Perhaps their system cannot be used in the most peak games, and they are very likely to be targeted. But in the regular season, players with their own system ensure that their team will definitely enter the playoffs!

This system represents the lower limit of the team. It also meant the development of basketball, and it was because of Bill Russell that big defenders became popular. Because of the magician, fancy passing and control skills began to prevail, and because of Jordan, individual performances began to determine the trend of the game.

Every player with his own system will lead the changes of an era, not every superstar has his own system. But superstars with their own systems are often more likely to succeed in the same era!

Kobe's system, in a nutshell, is catch and shoot!

By integrating the running position into the team's tactics, once the ball is received, use technical movements to quickly get rid of the defense and complete the offense.

Kobe doesn't care even if the shooting rate drops because of quick shots. What he wants is the smoothness of the team's offense and an ultra-low turnover rate.

Perfectly devouring the ball, this style of play means that physical energy consumption is greatly reduced.

If O'Neal was on the court, Kobe took an average of 18 shots, 10 hits and 3 turnovers. So now Kobe! He can average 30 shots per game! And sure, 14 hits and 1 miss!

The hit rate has gone down, and the turnover rate has gone down as well. Kobe's handling of the ball before always made some mistakes, but once he enters the catch-and-shoot system, Kobe will hardly make mistakes!

Slaughter, when Kobe Bryant fully enters the offensive state, even if he doesn't feel very good today, this Mavericks still can't compete with the Lakers.

At the end of the game, the Lakers 101:78 Mavericks.

Kobe made 13 of 31 shots, scored 37 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

The Lakers took a total of 82 shots, and Kobe alone accounted for 37%! This is the ball tyrant, as long as he can win, the ball tyrant will become a ball god!

Phil Jackson's triangle offense, King Adelman's Princeton, Sun D'Antoni's running and bombing, and the 73-win Warriors' Ku have gravity.

Kobe has learned from each other!

Although teammates have not yet been able to fully cooperate with Kobe's tactical intentions, the strength of this set of tactics has already begun to take shape.

Just give me the ball! Even the gods will be killed for you!
