When pride still matters

Chapter 393 The Correct Usage of Smash Parker

"Arrogance" is the most obvious characteristic of Kwame Brown, and it is also the word used most often when others evaluate him.

Following Yu Fei to win two consecutive championships during the Bucks period, he boasted that he was the second center in the Eastern Conference and the first center in the league. He claimed that O'Neill was no match for him, and even threatened to beat Duncan in the finals.

Some people began to say: It is precisely because of this character that he became a parallel importer.

But this causal relationship is wrong.

It was because Brown became a parallel import that he became arrogant. Before the Bucks and Yu Fei reunited, he had become the spokesman for "the biggest depression in the history of the No. 1 pick." This trauma of being overly belittled needs to be made up for, and Yu Fei gave him a way to repair his psychological shadow, which was to brag.

However, Yu Fei did everything he said, while Brown's may not necessarily do it, but as long as he believes he did it.

Xiao Ou suffered a disadvantage in the paint and was slapped by Brown. Naturally, he was not willing to accept it. He actively picked and rolled as soon as he came to the frontcourt, and then moved down beautifully, pointing to the sky.

Kidd immediately threw an alley-oop pass.

However, the ball was intercepted by Yu Fei halfway.

Phil Jackson saw it and was anxious in his heart.

The SuperSonics turned to the offensive and almost all players participated in the fast break.

Although he was hated by tens of thousands of people, Brown enjoyed it, because this is usually what Yu Fei gets in away games.

In Kobe's case, they couldn't see such a case.

This kind of no-cost defense can certainly limit Yu Fei's offense, but Yu Fei's passing cannot be restricted by the Lakers.

It's off.

Unable to shake off the defense, Kobe had to increase the difficulty for himself to create space for his shot. As a result, the action was beautiful, but the arc was not accurate.

"Hate me, I don't care what you think!"

Yu Fei responded.

Something is wrong.

The game shifted from the Lakers' rhythm at the beginning to the SuperSonics' rhythm.

The person responsible for facing off against Kobe is Yu Fei.

Yu Fei returned to the basket, Brown blocked the board, and the SuperSonics counterattacked again.

Brown's histrionics prompted boos from Staples Center.

Because neither Martin nor Roy now are famous stars, they only grew into stars by being around Yu Fei.

"Shh!"

Of course Kobe wouldn't stand it if Brown was making trouble like this.

The difference is huge.

Moreover, they have existing cases.

Yu Fei's case is more convincing than the magic bird.

Frye can make those around him better, but Kobe can't.

Kobe started the night's first singles game.

The Lakers' defensive attention is focused on Fei, but Yu Fei has not taken a shot tonight.

Brown yelled wildly.

In the frontcourt, Yu Fei overcame Walton's help and was double-teamed one step inside the free throw line. The Lakers tried their best to curb his performance, as if to make him look different from Kobe.

Now, the content presented in the competition is similar.

"How did he see that?!!!"

"Big fly!!!"

Yu Fei counterattacked with the ball. Such a fast pace of the game was not appropriate for the Lakers, because except for Walton, none of their starting players were young players.

Yu Fei's center of gravity remained on the ground, relying entirely on his wingspan to interfere.

Yu Fei came to the frontcourt to attract the defense and threw the ball directly back.

Durant received a pass from Yu Fei, and he shot a three-pointer without any defender.

Jackson is all too familiar with this rhetoric.

"it can be."

"This is not your home court."

Before Jordan won the championship, everyone belittled him like this, saying that he was not as good as the Magic Bird. The Magic Bird could make his teammates great, but Jordan could not. When Jordan heard this, he thought, is this human language? Direct retort: ​​"I can make James Worthy and Kareem Jabbar great, too."

5 is better than 7
The SuperSonics overtook the Lakers by 2 points.

Yu Fei can help Kevin Martin grow from a draft failure to a second-year All-Star. He also points out the direction for mature stars like Roy, and even takes the initiative to give away the ball to help the opponent grow.

Xiao Ao felt that he and Da Fei were no longer friends.

The Lakers' home announcer called out, and Kwame Brown entered the picture. He jumped up with all his strength, caught the ball with both hands, and instantly launched an alley-oop dunk that was so soul-stirring that the entire defensive counterattack had the best effect.

As a well-known ball tyrant in the coaching circle, Yu Fei's style should be selfish. But at the same time, Yu Fei was the core ball-handler in the Bucks and had excellent passing ability. Now, when public opinion compares him and Kobe, there is always a sharp point of view.

Kobe is a strong offensive player, and Yu Fei activates his teammates with passes.

This man who averaged 31 points per game now doesn't even take a single shot!
This is an MVP battle, doesn't he want to stand out at all?

Kobe doesn't seem selfish, he's just playing a role in the triangle offense.

Since the Lakers' current triangle offense is driven by the outside, his role is no different from Jordan's back then.

So Kobe's task is to score 30 points every night and also get 5 rebounds and 5 assists. But against Yu Fei, Kobe will tend to solve the problem by himself.

Just like in the next round, Kobe ran out to catch the ball, feinted on the flying test step and then took the shot.

"Shh!"

No questions asked, that's his role in the triangle offense.

Yu Fei's response was to screen for Roy, cover for Durant, then cut out to get the ball, and instantly passed the ball to Marion.

Marion dunks.

His data is 0 points, but he has 2 rebounds and 4 assists.

And Kobe scored 4 points and nothing else.

Subsequently, Kobe cut into the basket and wanted to dunk, but was interfered by Brown. Yu Fei pushed back to counterattack, but was destroyed by Kidd. The two sides began to alternate offense and defense. Kidd suddenly made a layup and scored. Roy responded with a jump shot. Kobe faced the double team and turned around to score. Yu Fei finally took the shot from the high post and responded with a jump shot.

The Lakers made a pass error, the SuperSonics counterattacked, and missed a three-pointer. Kobe grabbed the rebound and also wanted to hit the opponent's unsteady footing. However, his offensive tendency was too obvious, and Yu Fei suddenly jumped up and took off at a high height. It's not high, but the bullet speed is very fast. This is a good shot.

Since Yu Fei jumped with limited strength, the moment he fell, his legs were stronger than Kobe's and his starting speed was also faster.

In just a moment, Yu Fei had already pounced on the ball on the floor.

Kobe fought hard to catch up, but Yu Fei gave no chance at all, always kept at full speed, and finally rushed to the frontcourt and dunked.

"The big flight is about to begin."

Having coached Yu Fei for many years, Karl is very aware of Yu Fei's offensive rhythm.

Whenever Yu Fei is ready to take over the offense, Karl can feel it.

"Smash." Carl called out Death Parker, "Get ready to replace Brandon."

Parker came to the sidelines.

Kobe noticed him.

Before tonight, Kobe didn't know that this person went to play for the Sonics.

Look at this man, he hasn't been eliminated by the NBA yet. What's wrong with the league?
Think about Smush Parker's time with the Lakers. His recklessness, his poor decision-making, his low IQ, his unreasonable behavior and lack of repentance after making mistakes. His existence profoundly proves that bad Lakers team. How the team buried Kobe in his prime.

Bryant was reminded of the failures of the past few years, an era that could be called "when Smarsh Parker was the Lakers' point guard."

This made him feel so depressed that he didn't want to go back to the past.

So he interrupted the tactical rhythm at the top of the arc, and to get the ball from Kidd, he directly flew over the head.

"Shuh!!!"

Miraculously, Yu Fei could feel Kobe's resentment.

"If the Sonics eventually move away," Kobe pointed at Parker, "it must be his fault!"

Judging from Kobe's words, he definitely hopes to stay with the Sonics. As expected of Kobe, the 16-day-old Komi expressed his gratitude, but it was his fault for saying so about Parker.

Yu Fei couldn't help but give him a few confrontations.

He was careless, thinking that since he was the number one in the league he could do whatever he wanted.

Yes, the number one player in the league has a lot of cards, but he is by no means the most card-carrying player. In the NBA, the Lakers' whistle power is the most impressive.

In an instant, the whistle sounded, and the referee called Yu Fei a foul without the ball, but he didn't care. He just wanted Kobe to know: "I won't let you say that about my teammates."

"One day, you will wish he was not your teammate." Kobe predicted like a philosopher.

Parker replaced Roy, thereby signaling that the Sonics' game was about to change.

However, the ignorant Parker actually had some objections to Fei's off-ball foul just now: "Da Fei, are you so excited to see me play?"

Yu Fei has begun to understand Kobe, but he just doesn't admit it.

"Shut up, Smash, give me the ball and get out of here!"

Yu Fei got the ball and on the way across the half court, Kobe's resentment towards Parker gave Yu Fei another reason to win the championship this season.

How big of a hit would Kobe be if he could lead Smash Parker to a championship?
He had already begun to imagine what criticism Smush Parker would say when he saw Kobe again after winning the championship. As long as he thought of that scene, Yu Fei felt that BYD was not so annoying.

Kobe put on a defensive posture, preparing to compete with Yu Fei.

However, Yu Fei made a gesture, which made Parker startled.

Didn't Da Fei tell him to get out of the way?

He didn't know why Yu Fei changed his mind, but within the Sonics, there was only one person whose orders were unshakable.

Parker decided to do what he was told, so he ran to Yu Fei and set up a pick-and-roll.

Then came Kwame Brown's double pick-and-roll. The Lakers' defense was already in disarray. They didn't know who to guard, because Yu Fei could either attack by himself or feed Brown. Of course, he couldn't rule out passing the ball to Parker.

Kobe simply ignored Parker and went after Yu Fei.

Yu Fei hit high and jumped into the air with Kobe on his back. Xiao Ao still remembered that Yu Fei had ruined his good deeds just now, and quickly came over to help defend, wanting to settle the score.

However, Yu Fei's layup turned into a backward pass without looking at anyone in the air. This is almost his signature passing action. Due to his tall stature and big hands, his vision combined with top passing and control ability are always good. It allows him to send one-handed passes behind the head without looking at anyone that is impossible for a small defender.

Parker caught the ball and cut in, facing the falling Kobe and scoring with a throw.

"What did you say about me back then?" Parker looked at Kobe and started to exclaim, "You have to look forward and backward when defending. How come you can't do it yourself?"

This was the first time Yu Fei saw Kobe break the defense: "Shut the hell up!"

Huh.
Yu Fei accidentally discovered the correct usage of Smash Parker.
