Opening Kobe template, rewarding Curry with three points

Chapter 337 Battle! Kobe was beaten to the point of wanting to retire...

On April 4, at the Warriors' pre-game press conference, Su Bai, as the leader of the Warriors, was undoubtedly the focus of the spotlight. He was wearing a Warriors uniform, tall and slender, like a statue made of victory.

Facing the reporter's fanatical questioning, Su Bai remained calm and composed, with a confident smile on his lips.

When asked about the ownership of the MVP, Su Bai's eyes flashed with admiration. He turned his eyes to Curry, who was sitting next to him, and chuckled: "I support my teammate Curry. His performance this season is phenomenal and he is fully worthy of the MVP."

Su Bai didn't lie. Curry's performance this season is indeed phenomenal, much better than in his previous life!

When answering reporters' questions about who will win the championship, he was confident, "Our goal is of course the championship!"

Having come all this way, how could they have any other choice?

Although it is not as good as last season's record-breaking record, for the Warriors, if they don't defend the title and establish a dynasty, they will fail!

At this moment, the atmosphere of the press conference reached a climax!

Su Bai's domineering and confidence infected everyone present. His every movement, every look, every word was full of power and conviction. People seem to have seen the rise of a dynasty and the magnificent picture of the Warriors, under the leadership of Su Bai, moving towards glory and glory.

war!

……

The Warriors' first-round opponent is the Lakers, and the Spurs and other Western Conference powers are envious of this.

It's not that the Lakers are really that weak, but compared to the Mosaic, Grizzlies, and Mavericks, the Lakers are indeed the best bone to chew on.

Among them, the Clippers are definitely the most envied of the Warriors. The Grizzlies are notoriously tough to bite!

And this season, with the rise of Gasol, the Grizzlies are becoming increasingly difficult to chew.

If they want to step on the Grizzlies and advance to the second round, the Clippers really have to shed several layers of skin even if they don't die.

While the outside world is wildly optimistic about the Warriors, the Warriors generals themselves have no intention of being impetuous.

There was no way, when Su Bai started to train meticulously, who else would dare to act carelessly?

On the sidelines, coach Smart said with emotion, "It is really an honor for me to have a player like Su, and it is an honor for our Warriors team!"

Not far away, assistant coach D'Antoni nodded with deep understanding.

Let alone building a dynasty in the NBA, winning a championship in a season is not easy and requires countless efforts and sweat.

There are countless teams vying for championship honors here every season. However, there are very few teams that can truly build a dynasty over the years.

Building a dynasty requires not only outstanding players and strong strength, but also an indescribable cohesion and team spirit. This requires every player to be able to devote themselves wholeheartedly to the game, trust, support and encourage each other.

This season, D'Antoni discovered through research that although Su Bai was deliberately delegating power, he still played a very important leadership role in the Warriors. His strength and talent are undoubtedly top-notch, but he is also a true team player. He is always able to bring out the best in his teammates and allow them to reach their maximum potential in the game!

Looking at Su Bai who was communicating with his teammates on the training ground, D'Antoni's eyes were complicated. That guy was always so focused and devoted whether in training or in games. Every move and every look he makes conveys trust and encouragement to his teammates. With such a leader in the team, the Warriors' team cohesion will naturally become stronger and stronger.

Therefore, D'Antoni came to the conclusion that his tactical quality may indeed be worse than coach Nelson, but if he chooses Su Bai, he will definitely be the most famous now, rather than Nelson.

It's just that when training, you should be serious. The Warriors' training volume is really not large.

Coach Smart, who has experienced so many championships, knows very well that they need to adjust their best state until the Western Conference Finals or Finals.

Therefore, it is beneficial to win more, and you will become more familiar with many things.

……

On the 18th, the first round G1 game of the Western Conference between the Warriors and Lakers officially started at Chase Center Arena.

Before the game, I learned that the Warriors were very serious in training and all the Lakers generals were extremely serious.

Although Kobe's condition has declined, although the world is not optimistic about them, and although their lineup has no advantage over the Warriors, the Lakers really have no signs of giving up early.

Well...at least, none of the other Lakers generals showed fear in front of Kobe.

Moreover, the Warriors can be regarded as the main victims of the Lakers, so there is no need for Lakers coach Byron Scott to fight. The Lakers generals have already entered a state of sharing the same hatred and hatred.

This night, Lily Collins and her daughter were all dressed up.

Tonight, after all, is Su Bai's first playoff game at Chase Center, which is somewhat memorable.

There were many Warriors fans who had the same idea as Lily Collins, so that night almost all Warriors fans in San Francisco gathered early in the Chase Center Arena and the square outside the arena.

This night, Chase Center was bustling with activity. The faces of Warriors fans were filled with enthusiasm, and their eyes shone with the desire for victory. Their passion is like a fire, burning in every corner of the arena and the square outside.

These Warriors fans wore uniform Warriors jerseys and formed a sea of ​​bright yellow. These Warriors fans had their faces painted with the Warriors' logo and a smile of victory on their faces. They waved the flags in their hands and sang the Warriors' anthem loudly. The sound resounded throughout the arena and spread far and wide outside the square.

Warriors fans hugged each other, encouraged each other, and their enthusiasm spread like fire. They held placards high that read "Warriors Championship" and their chants were deafening, as if they were going to overturn the entire arena.

During the warm-up, all the Warriors players, including Su Bai, were excited when looking at the sea of ​​yellow at the Warriors' home court. When you're at home with so many fans cheering you on, it's hard not to give it your all.

On the other side, the Lakers players looked solemn. Although most of them knew that it would be difficult for them to stop the Warriors from moving forward, but... what if they feel overwhelmed tonight and give the Warriors a bad start?

Basketball is round, so no one knows exactly what will happen on the court.

Soon, the starting lineups of the two teams were displayed on the NBA's largest and most technologically advanced screen.

Lakers: Jeremy Lin, Kobe Bryant, Wesley Johnson, Love, Gasol;

Warriors: Curry, Subai, Bojan, Green and Jokic.

In the center circle, amid the crazy cheers of Warriors fans, Jokic successfully jumped past Gasol.

Not many people can win Jokic's jump ball, but Gasol is one of them.

For the Warriors, Curry dribbled the ball as fast as the wind across half court.

It's just that although the Lakers' lineup is not that strong defensively, their defensive attitude is still online, and...

The Lakers and Warriors are really old rivals. As soon as Curry speeds up, the Lakers will know what he wants to do and quickly retreat into position.

Curry was not in a hurry and made tactical gestures to signal his teammates to engage in positional warfare.

Amid the cheers of the Chase Center fans, the Warriors played very patiently, and the basketball appeared in Su Bai's hands after a while.

After catching the ball, Su Bai ignored Kobe's dive and drifted back to shoot.

"Shh-!"

The knife fell from the hand, 0 to 2!

The big devil who had hidden his sharp fangs in the regular season once again revealed his terrifying and ferocious face at this moment. "MVP——!"

"MVP——!"

"MVP——!"

Fans at Chase Center cheered in unison.

Well, Curry is the MVP, and Su Bai is still their MVP, both!

The Lakers' offense also used the same style of play, but Kobe, who failed to get rid of Su Bai and forced a shot, was still looking handsome when leaning back, and his posture was still very chic, but it was faintly obvious that Kobe no longer had the calmness he had in his peak period.

From 07 to 15, Su Bai reached his peak, while Kobe was really almost out of reach of his peak.

"boom--!"

The basketball hit the basket and Jokic protected the defensive rebound. Then, the Warriors counterattacked frantically. Su Bai rushed to the frontcourt and cooperated with Curry against the wall, and dunked in, 0 to 4!

In the TNT live commentary box, O'Neal's eyes were full of regret. Has the afro from back then turned into the old snake now?

At this moment, O'Neal really hoped that Kobe would always be that unruly person!

In Sina Studio, Director Zhang was speechless for a moment.

Compared to Su Bai's crushing, Director Zhang really hopes to see Kobe turn on the "God descends to earth" switch to compete with Su Bai tonight, but...

Coach Zhang knows very well that in the past season, Kobe's frequency of pressing the "god to earth" switch has really become less and less.

On the court, Kobe's face was full of ruthlessness, but in time, a trace of helplessness flashed in his heart.

He also wanted to go into battle and kill the enemy, but he was powerless!

Nash, who was sitting on the bench of the Warriors, looked at Kobe with memories in his eyes. He was also a rookie in the 96 class and still remembered how Kobe rose like a meteor, and now...

They are all old, they are all old.

"I should retire next year, how long can Kobe Bryant continue to play?"

On the court, the Lakers began to play Curry's point according to Byron Scott's arrangement.

Well, even though Jeremy Lin is not well-known in the league now, playing Curry on the defensive end is not a big problem.

The Warriors didn't pay too much attention to Curry, but insisted on their own rhythm, and then... the Lakers were blown away.

Playing Curry is a good entry point, but you have to use this entry point as the center to achieve the effect, and the points make the surface!

Jeremy Lin's efficiency against Curry was good, but the Lakers still had no choice in the face of the Warriors' defensive strategy.

Why, we can’t really let Jeremy Lin beat Curry all the time, right?

You know, it's not easy to take action all the time.

Moreover, although Curry's defense is very hard, it is not a very physical method. Therefore, if the Lakers dare to let Jeremy Lin attack all the time, Jeremy Lin's offensive efficiency will definitely decrease.

The overall strength is weaker than others, which is so sad.

So the Lakers, who changed their overall style of play... just changed their way of death.

After the first quarter, Kobe didn't even want to retire next year, he wanted to retire where he was!

19 is better than 41!

Falling behind by 22 points in a single quarter!

Play with eggs!

For a proud and paranoid person like Kobe, a season without a championship is really a failed season!

During the regular season, he would comfort himself that the regular season did not count, and the playoffs would not really begin until the playoffs, but now it seems...

Well, the Warriors have "improved" even more in the playoffs!

Yes, the Warriors, who won 70 games in the regular season, can still "make progress"!

Although Kobe doesn't want to admit it, it's the damn truth!

In the second half of the first quarter, when Su Bai started to defend him, Kobe felt that Su Bai was disrespecting him.

But as soon as he caught the ball, Su Bai instantly switched to a high-intensity defensive mode, which told Kobe the cruel fact - he was really old.

Su Bai really didn't need the whole audience to defend him crazily. He only needed to exert force at critical moments, which was enough to embarrass him.

Like Kobe, Love and Gasol, the other two giants of the Lakers, are also embarrassed.

It's just that what they are embarrassed about is not psychologically, but in appearance.

Green, who is facing off against Love, is originally crazy on his own, but when playing Love, a star power forward, he automatically switches to excited mad dog mode.

As for Jokic, a rookie, he worked diligently against Gasol, blocking positions, grabbing rebounds, and providing support, trying to quickly adapt to the rhythm of the playoffs.

Gasol wanted to cry: What the hell are you telling me this is a rookie? I can’t hold it up, I really can’t hold it up!

During the break in the first quarter, coach Byron Scott arranged for the Lakers' bench to rely on rotating lineups to chase points.

But after a while in the second quarter, coach Byron Scott fell silent - Curry on the Warriors side exploded.

Hehe, do you understand what the value of being the strongest candidate for regular season MVP this season is?

Curry proved his strength with a burst of outside shots and inside shots.

Haha, I can’t play in the starting lineup, and I can’t play in your bench?

In fact, Curry's touch was average today, otherwise even if he was the Lakers' substitute, he would still be rubbing on the ground.

In the TNT commentary box, watching the Lakers being pushed to the ground and being rubbed like crazy, Barkley complained, "The suspense tonight is not whether the Warriors can win, but whether the Lakers will lose by 40 points or 50 points tonight." ?”

Kenny Smith shook his head, "If both sides rotate normally, I think the final score difference can be more than 60 points."

O'Neal spoke subconsciously, "Hey, guys, those are the Purple and Gold Lakers. With Kobe here, he won't let anything happen."

But before anyone else could refute, O'Neal himself had already shown a wry smile. Can Kobe really turn the tide now as he did when he was young?

Hill smiled slightly and said, "Shaq is right, the Lakers will not give up easily.

Does it only matter how many points you lose?

What the Lakers should be thinking about now is how to avoid being swept in this series, right? "

Hill's words silenced the Lakers fans in front of the TV.

They don’t know either!
