Showdown, I'm the God of Basketball

Chapter 216 The playoffs start

On April 4, the playoffs start!
The Lakers take on the San Antonio Spurs!
SSTV officially broadcast the game!
Countless Chinese fans are staring at the TV in front of them, looking forward to the battle.

Whether it is the gimmick of the Lakers and Horses battle, or Zhao Hao, a Chinese guard who can make it to the NBA, and the popular idol Kobe.

They can all bring great entertainment to this round of the series.

"First of all, congratulations to Xiaohao. This season he won the three-point shooting championship, the best rookie and the best sixth man, three awards. This is the first time in the history of a Chinese player."

Before the game, Director Su said with a sigh.

Yu Jia also echoed and said: "Kobe also won the first scoring title in his career. This season the Lakers completely exceeded everyone's expectations. Not only did they make it to the playoffs, they also won Four NBA awards."

"It's just that their luck is not very good. They will face the second-ranked Spurs in the West in the first round. Even if they meet the Suns with the first record, it will be better than this result."

Having said that, Director Su couldn't help shaking his head.

Although the Spurs are only ranked second in the Western Conference, in terms of strength, I am afraid they are even higher than the Suns.

This team is really too strong, whether it is offensive and defensive ends, or the coaching staff.

At this time, the game officially began.

The Lakers still have a regular rotation.

The Spurs sent point guard Tony Parker, shooting guard Manu Ginobili, small forward Bowen, power forward Tim Duncan, and center Rasunestrovich.

Midline jump ball.

Rasunestlovic, the height of 213cm is still not to be ignored, and directly won the first wave of possession.

Parker holds the ball and slowly advances across half court.

This is a positional battle!

The lob was given to Duncan who was in the bull's corner, with his back and his back.

Odom leaned forward stubbornly, but was pushed back by a strong shoulder from Duncan, pushing him back a step.

Turn around at a 45° angle and hit the board!
Go in!

This is the playoffs, the intensity of the first ball came up!

"I can't guard him, I have to double-team the next ball."

Odom, who was beaten without temper, hurriedly shouted to his teammates on the field.

No way, the Lakers' inside defense has always been the biggest problem this season, and their only solution is to double-team.

Turning around, Kobe took the lead and singled Ginobili with the ball first.

Yaodao knew that he couldn't defend against Kobe, so he quickly got started, resisting Kobe and not giving him a chance to get inside.

Peter Pan made a mid-range jumper and scored!
Corvo, this mid-range shot is getting more and more stable now!

Switching offense, the Spurs still focused on Duncan, this time Butler came over to double-team!
Duncan didn't make a strong play, and he was waiting for this moment, and it was directly given to Bowen on the weak side.

Swish!
Three point shot!

Don't think that Bowen's defensive ability can be called the top in the league. His three-point shooting percentage this season has reached a terrifying 40%.

And he can hit 3 three-pointers per game, so he really can't let it go!

The Lakers attacked again.

A change came on the court. After Kobe scored a goal, Bowen and Giroubili switched defenses.

"Kobe has won the league's scoring title this season. If there are no restrictions, it is really possible for him to blow up a game."

On the live commentary stand, Kenny Smith said with a sigh.

Don't look at Kobe's offensive ability is very powerful, he even scored one against Ginobili's defense just now.

But if he meets Bowen, he really doesn't have much to do.

After all, this season Bowen scored again in the league's first defense.

It is naturally unrealistic for him to completely prevent Kobe from dying, but restrict Kobe and greatly reduce Kobe's shooting rate.

This is too easy for Bowen.

On the field, after Kobe tried several consecutive breakthroughs, he failed to pass Bowen, and was beaten by the opponent's various tricks.

Corvo had no choice but to pass it to Odom on one side and let him reorganize.

Just at this time!
Duncan, who has been waiting for a long time, has a quick hand and a quick eye, and goes around to steal!

Parker is on the fast break!

This small French sports car ran like a debt collector, leaving behind Atkinson half a street.

Layup scored!

Zhao Hao on the bench was a little worried, and he couldn't help but glance at Popovich on the opposite coach's bench.

The corner of the old man's mouth was raised, and he was smiling, as if he had succeeded in a trick.

It seems that this wave of defense just now should have been arranged by Zhuge Weiqi before the game.

Don't double-team Kobe, put Bowen on one-on-one defense, and then cut off the passing lanes between Kobe and his teammates.

Corvo isn't a serious passer after all, so asking him to deal with this kind of defensive change is a bit of a lock.

So in the next game, Kobe, who didn't dare to pass the ball, could only choose to forcibly single Bowen!

4 out of 1!

The Lakers, who had a low shooting percentage, were directly pushed back by the Spurs and played a wave of offensive high slots.

6: 13!

Zhao Hao really wanted to say, don't think that the Spurs play positional offense. After all, the team has fast-break masters like Parker and Ginobili.

Therefore, in terms of counterattack, they are no worse than any speed-up team.

Hamblen on the sidelines looked a little nervous and helpless. He stood near the center line and walked back and forth.

At this time, he happened to exchange a glance with Zhao Hao, who was on the bench.

Got it!

Zhao Hao:.
beep!beep!
The referee blows the whistle.

Hamblen called a timeout!
Then he did not arrange the offensive tactics for this round, nor did he explain the players' next focus on play, but first encouraged everyone, and then said.

"Let Kobe and Zhao Hao decide how the team will play next!"

Get back into the game.

Hamblen replaced Mim and took Zhao Hao.

Zhao Hao glanced at Ginobili in front of him, hey, I'm already here, how dare your Spurs let Bowen defend Kobe?
interesting?
"Pick and roll, change!"

Following Zhao Hao's shout, Kobe nodded and directly signaled Odom on the inside to come forward for the pick-and-roll.

Now Odom is playing the center position on the field, so Rasunestrovich on the inside immediately followed up.

Pick-and-roll substitutions, Kobe directly into the inside.

No one can stop Kobe from getting inside now.

At this time, Duncan also quickly brought up to help defend, but it was too late!

Corvo directly and strongly entered the inside line.

beep!beep!
The basketball hits the net and the referee blows his whistle.

2+1!

"This change to the death five, the Spurs' defensive iron formation was pierced in one fell swoop."

On the coaching bench of the Spurs, Popovich stood up a little dissatisfied and came near the center line.

Then he greeted Rasunestrovich to come over quickly, and then whispered a few words.

Kobe made a free throw.

In the next round, the Lakers will still focus on Kobe's pick-and-roll roll call.

It's just that Rasunestrovich, who was taught by Popovich face-to-face, didn't switch defenses this time, and directly chose to double-team Kobe!

It's only been a few minutes since you played, and you're double-teamed?
Under the double-teaming of Bowen and Rasu, Corvo directly lost the ball. He hurriedly hugged the basketball and called his teammates to come and catch the ball.

The open Odom quickly mentioned beyond the three-point line and was about to catch the ball.

Zhao Hao's heart thumped, and he thought to himself, "What happened!"
