Chapter 411 Kobe Is Crazy!

"Gary, there are still 7 points ahead, don't panic, play steadily!" Kemp supported Payton, who was a little weak.

"Yes, there is still an advantage. Hold on, Kobe just made two three-pointers, let's score the next goal!" Payton settled down, took over the pass from Schramff, and dribbled the ball. advance.

After halftime, hand it over to Hawkins.

At this moment in the game, both sides no longer need to test, just play their own strengths! And now the strongest point of the Supersonics is that Hawkins is facing the old Curry and Kemp is facing Campbell.

Hawkins and Kemp pick and roll, Kemp cuts inside, and Hawkins pulls the ball out.

Payton made an empty cut to the basket, and Schrempf and Jim McElvine pulled out with a pick-and-roll.

This tactic is the most common routine for the Sonics in this game. There are many offensive points. The Lakers' defense will first be drawn by Hawkins and Kemp to attract a lot of attention. Out of attack space. At this time, the Sonics' offense is multi-layered and very difficult to defend. This also made the slightly inexperienced Eddie Jones and Bowen a little at a loss, and was eventually replaced by Harris.

After the old Curry and Horry played, Curry's defense against Hawkins, the first offensive starting point, was not very effective.

With the help of Kemp's pick and roll, Hawkins easily pulled out the open space, followed by a safe mid-range jumper.

Lakers 84:93 SuperSonics.

Kobe's mood did not fluctuate at all, and he directly advanced with the ball.

Payton tried his best to interfere with Kobe's movement, constantly confronted Kobe, and tried to deform Kobe's technical movements.

"One-on-one? Kobe just hit two three-pointers in a row, and his touch should be hot!"

"No! It's a pick-and-roll! O'Neal went up and made a solid pick-and-roll for Kobe!"

"Kobe cuts inside to mid-range! Double team! Payton flanks from behind! Kemp waits in front!"

"Payton and Kemp's defensive combination! No one in the league can take it lightly! How will Kobe handle this ball?"

Kobe saw Payton out of the corner of his eye, and he was going to steal the ball from behind.

And in front is a top jumper. In this position, this defense has only one choice for any player, and that is to pass the ball while avoiding mistakes!

And Kobe didn't pass the ball!

Although at this time, he can find an angle to pass the ball to the air-cut O'Neal, but Kemp's position takes into account the defense. Even if he passes to O'Neal, O'Neal will be caught by Kemp and Jim McKay. Irvine's double-team, that would be a bad offense.

So how will Kobe handle this desperate offensive round?

Kobe jumps!

Take a big leap to the right!

Then the left foot is the pivot foot, and the right foot takes a big step to the right, instantly throwing off the defense of Kemp and Payton!

The right foot does not land, and the pivot foot takes off at the same time!

The right hand picked the basket and made a hit!

"Fack! Is this kid a loach?" Kemp was stunned. Kobe's waltz-like footsteps made him doubt his life.

Peyton smiled bitterly, you know why my mentality was broken.

"Beep!" The referee whistled.

Lakers 86:93 SuperSonics.

George Karl has no choice but to find a way to stop Kobe.

It's 3 out of 3, Payton can't defend, and Kemp can't defend!

George Karl looked at McMillan on the bench, the 93-94 steals king and the best defensive team player, the best defensive team player in the 94-95 season, a player who can be selected to the best defensive team while sitting on the bench The legendary player is 32 years old, does he still have oil?

"Let me go, Coach." McMillan has only played in 37 games this season due to injuries, but his defensive impact is immediate whenever he's on the floor. His defense is very similar to the Tony Allen of later generations, with a power failure and a very resilient defense.

"Nate, Gary! You two double-teamed Kobe! Can't let him score! Can't!" George Karl didn't want to see this situation happen again, a good situation was turned over by Kobe alone.

"clear."

Back on the court, McMillan replaced Hawkins. He has no way to replace Schramf. The height gap between the two is too big. If McMillan is placed at the small forward position, Horry will open up again. Once Horry opens, he is the kind who can drive the entire team. For the team's players, Horry's opening is even more threatening than replacing Hawkins.

Replacing Hawkins, George Karl didn't know if it was the right choice. Leading by 7 points, choose offense or defense? If it is 2020, then the two sides must attack each other. But now is the 1990s when the offensive rhythm is extremely slow. Even George Karl, who can be counted as an offensive player, is unwilling to go against a superstar to attack.

Without Hawkins, the burden of offense fell to Payton again.

Kobe directly blocked Payton in the middle circle!

Payton has always bit Kobe on the defensive end! And Kobe finally found the opportunity to start biting Payton!

"Gary doesn't seem very good." Hawkins sat next to George Karl. He understood why the coach replaced him, but he thought that the advantage he had gained on the offensive end was far greater than McMillan's defense on Kobe. The advantage is greater.

"Trust Gary." Sam - Perkins responded, this time can only hope that Payton can beat Kobe. Offense and defense, as long as one of them works, it is enough to keep the point difference to end the game.

George Karl thinks that there is only one possible loss for him, and that is Payton being blown out by Kobe. Regardless of offense or defense, they were crushed by Kobe. Carl didn't think that Payton, who was able to make a few tricks under Jordan last year, would lose! So he replaced Hawkins.

Bite! Take two steps back!

The entanglement between Kobe and Payton continued from the midfield LOGO to one step beyond the three-point line! The short distance of a few meters felt so long to Payton. He tried his best to dribble the ball to this position while avoiding mistakes.

Then it was still Kemp's pick and roll!

Peyton cuts a step inside! Kobe directly stuck his way forward! Don't say CIC! Payton was almost intercepted by Kobe, staggered for a long time before regaining control of the basketball, and then passed it to Schramff in the bottom corner.

Schramf tried to make a three-step threat, and shot one against Horry.

No, Horry's height is not much worse than Schramf, so the biggest advantage of this big pitcher will be wiped out!

O'Neal grabs the rebound!

Pass it to Kobe, Kobe quickly!

"Stop him! Stop him!" George Karl roared from the sidelines.

McMillan takes the lead against Kobe!

Dribble behind your back, pass!

Payton stands at the Sonics three-point line!

Kobe is moving, don't slow down and cross step!

"Opportunity!" Kobe went crazy! Crazy! Such a high-speed dribble to change direction directly is simply to find a break! Peyton reached out directly!

"Impossible!" Payton's hand almost poked the basketball, and this is the difference.

"boom!"

The next moment, Kobe was already hanging on the basket.
