Legendary star

Chapter 812 Unsatisfactory
"Kobe's stamina should be a problem. In the last few minutes, his scoring efficiency has not been as good as before. He failed to make fadeaway shots after turning his back several times. It is obvious that Kobe's stamina is exhausted now. "

"The Spurs consumed Kobe too much. They used Leonard to defend Kobe in the first quarter, Meng Xu defended Kobe in the second and third quarters, and started to use Leonard again after the fourth quarter. Defending Kobe, the Spurs have maintained a high-intensity defense against Kobe from the beginning to the end, judging from Kobe's current physical condition, I can't think of a few minutes, and Kobe's physical strength will be exhausted."

"Kobe's stamina is exhausted, so the Lakers have no chance at all. Although there are many star players in this Lakers team, but when it comes to critical moments, few can stand up."

With the beginning of the fourth quarter, the situation on the field became more and more unfavorable to the Lakers. After experiencing the failure of the previous strategy, D'Antoni finally gave up the running and bombing tactics. Set up a lineup with Kobe at the core, ready to use superstar singles tactics for the final game.

Since the birth of the NBA, there have been a plethora of tactics, but at the critical moment of the game, most teams and head coaches will give up all tactics and routines, and let the strongest players in their respective teams play singles with the ball. In the first three quarters of the game, no matter what the situation was on the field, Anthony was very stubborn and asked his players to strictly follow his own tactics, but at the end of the game, D'Antoni couldn't care less. In a word , Give the ball to Kobe!Although D'Antoni also wanted to replicate the mercury-laden offense of the Suns era in the Lakers, but faced with the cruel reality, D'Antoni had to make a compromise, because today's game cannot be lost no matter what.

However, the situation after the start of the fourth quarter made D'Antoni realize that it was too late for him to compromise. If in the second half of the third quarter, D'Antoni would be able to make a compromise. When the lineup is catching up to the score, if you don't continue to try to use run-and-bomb tactics to deal with the Spurs, maybe the Lakers have now overtaken the score.

But it's too late to say anything now. The Lakers' defeat was already doomed in the second half of the third quarter. Popovich himself has very rich experience in dealing with running and bombing tactics. Semi-finished products are not counted, so in this case, it is difficult for the Lakers who play run and bomb tactics to beat the Spurs.

There are 5 minutes and 40 seconds left in the game, and the gap between the two sides is 11 points. The game between the Spurs and the Lakers is basically settled. However, during the official timeout, Kobe rejected D'Antoni's plan to replace him. Kobe's physical fitness has already been a problem, but Kobe still chose to stay on the court. With Kobe's character, he will never admit defeat until the last minute, the last second, especially today's opponent is still Meng Xu , Kobe couldn't accept such an ending even more.

"Old man, I knew you were not reconciled!"

After the timeout ended, when Kobe brought Gasol back on the court, he saw the Spurs players walking onto the court one after another not far away. During the official timeout just now, Popovich replaced all but Meng Xu. With all the main players outside, Meng Xu came back on the court with a group of substitutes, and Meng Xu, who walked onto the court, did not go directly to the Spurs' half court to prepare for defense, but walked directly towards Kobe, looking like I have already See through the expression of your conspiracy.

"Old guy, do you think you've already won?" Seeing Meng Xu walking towards him, Kobe felt a little touched in his heart, but on the surface, Kobe still looked unforgiving Kobe felt more and more upset when he saw Meng Xu's smug expression.

"I've already won. Isn't that obvious?" Meng Xu was really not afraid of provoking Kobe. The stronger Kobe was and the more motivated he was, the happier Meng Xu would be.

"Huh." After a heavy cold snort, Kobe ignored Meng Xu, but turned his head to look at the sidelines, where Pau Gasol was ready to throw a sideline kick.

As the whistle sounded for the start of the game, Kobe, who was originally near the center line, immediately turned back towards the Lakers' half court. After receiving a pass from Gasol, Kobe stopped and began to drive the ball towards the frontcourt advance.

However, just after Kobe reached the center line, he encountered Meng Xu's defense. Meng Xu's height and wingspan both surpassed Kobe's, and his moving speed seemed to be a little faster than Kobe's, so when Kobe held the ball for a long time When encountering Meng Xu's defense, there is a high chance of being intercepted by Meng Xu, but in this offense, Kobe did not pass the ball to his teammates after encountering Meng Xu's defense, because at this time the pass The ball is not Kobe's style.

"It's time for Kobe to pass the ball. If he continues like this, he will definitely make a mistake." When Kobe continued to hold the ball under Meng Xu's defense, the reporters who supported Kobe on the sidelines Already started to worry about Kobe.

But while they were still discussing, Kobe, who was under Meng Xu's frontal defense, was facing Meng Xu's frontal defense. When the dribble was about to reach near the top of the arc, he suddenly stopped his footsteps, stepped back and took off. , and made a shooting posture.

"Three points, is Kobe going to use three-pointers to grab points?"

With the sound of "Swipe!", when Kobe hit Meng Xu's defensive three-pointer, there was a burst of cheers at the Staples Center in an instant. Kobe's three-pointer was undoubtedly a big hit for the fans at the scene. is a very good sign.

Kobe began to grab points, which undoubtedly means that this is the last struggle between the Lakers and Kobe. As long as Kobe's final counterattack momentum is held down, the game will be completely over.

"Although Kobe hit this three-pointer, it is still very difficult for the Lakers to catch up with the score in a short time." Kobe's three-pointer is undoubtedly a boost for the Lakers, but Magic Johnson is still I'm not optimistic that the Lakers can reverse the game, because the Lakers can't solve the Spurs' offense. As long as they can't prevent the Spurs' offense, even if Kobe makes more three-pointers, there is no way to change the situation on the field, because the current situation on the field It is completely biased towards the Spurs.

And in the round after Kobe hit a three-pointer, Meng Xu quickly countered Kobe with a three-pointer at the same place where Kobe made the three-pointer.

As Magic Johnson expected, in the next game, Kobe made two of three three-pointers, but the point difference between the two sides did not narrow much. Kobe scored 4 points on 3 of 9 shots, and Meng Xu also made 4 shots. He scored 3 points in 8, as long as there is no way to prevent the Spurs from scoring, Kobe's gamble to grab points is impossible to succeed.

After making three of four shots, Kobe hit the iron twice in a row. Although Meng Xu only made one of two shots on the Spurs side, the score on the field has been stretched to 1 points. Bryant's time is less than 12 minutes.

"The Lakers lost, but they didn't lose to the Spurs, but to themselves, to their extremely chaotic tactics and execution. If they don't make changes in the following games, then their The season is doomed to fail." Although the whistle for the end of the game has not yet sounded, Magic Johnson in the commentary is already summing up after the game. Regarding the performance of the Lakers this season, Magic Johnson is rather dissatisfied.

"It is indeed the case. The performance of the Lakers this season is far from what the audience expected of them!" Before the start of the new season, Michaels was also one of those who shouted for the Lakers championship. His performance is unsatisfactory, not to mention Magic Johnson, even Michaels is very disappointed with the Lakers.

　Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
　　Thank you for the reward I want to wake up the world, thank you.
