Chapter 349

Snapped!
Kobe flicked Paul's ball quickly, but Paul got the ball back faster. At the same time, he also saw that Belinelli went to the bottom line and ran out of space with the help of Emeka Okafor's pick-and-roll.

With a flick of Paul's wrist, the ball passed to Belinelli, who raised the knife and dropped it.

"Shua." Two points hit, 12-7.

Kobe dribbled the ball across half court and gave it to Gasol on the inside. Gasol's small hook was interfered by David West and missed.

Marcus Thornton protected the defensive rebound and went to Paul immediately.

Paul dribbled the ball for halftime, and cut into Emeka Okafor directly in the middle while advancing. Hassan hadn't returned yet.Emeka Okafor made a direct layup. 14-7.

This is already Paul's fifth assist. So far in the game, all the points of the Hornets are related to Paul. Paul has scored 3 points and 5 assists. This is the strength of the best point guard in the league today.

In the previous life, the 34-year-old Paul led the already planned to rebuild the Thunder into the playoffs. The management of the Thunder was so scared that he quickly traded Paul to another team. Afterwards, the 36-year-old led the young and vigorous Suns to the finals. Unfortunately, In the end, the goal fell short.

With Paul on the team, the playoffs are the lower limit. As for whether you can take a few steps forward, it depends on what kind of teammates you have. The stronger the teammates, the stronger Paul will be. The weaker the defensive teammates, the weaker Paul will be!

Paul doesn't belong to the kind of explosive scorer. It is not realistic for him to score 30+ or ​​40+ games. Paul's advantage is that he is stable enough.

"Good shot." Paul applauded Emeka Okafor. "Return to defense." At the same time, he also called on his teammates to quickly return to defense.

Kobe dribbled the ball halfway, facing Paul's defense, Kobe kept feinting, one, two, three, four, and the fifth time he stepped on his left foot and dribbled with his right hand from Paul's right side.

"Make up defense, make up defense." Paul chased and shouted.

Emeka Okafor immediately came to defend.

At this time, Kobe came to the inside and faced the siege of Emeka Okafor and Paul back and forth, without any need.

Standing up, standing on tiptoe, Emeka Okafor and Paul jumped up, seeing that Kobe didn't get up, it was fake.

Raise your hands and continue to block.

Kobe ordered again, and the two started again!

It's still fake.

The third time, Kobe went straight up, this time the two didn't keep up and scored a layup. 14-9.

"Nice." Boss's feint, a single word is perfect!He couldn't guard against it at all, Wei Lai was often deceived by the boss during heads-up, and the boss's fake moves were so perfect that it was very difficult to guard against.Wei Lai would rather play against his physical talent than against his skill level, especially the boss with very comprehensive skills, rich offensive methods, and a 360-degree offensive range without dead ends.

It was the Hornets' turn, and Paul dribbled across the half court to Marcus Thornton on the left three-point line.

Marcus Thornton tries to break through Wei Lai.

Do you think too much!Crack, Wei Lai leaned forward and dropped the ball with one hand.

Marcus Thornton picked it up and immediately passed the ball back to Paul at the top of the arc.

After Paul observed his teammates, he flicked his wrist, and the ball passed through the crowd and came into the hands of David West in the right corner.David West shot against Gasol.

The ball spun around the rim and fell out. Hassan protected the defensive rebound and handed it to Kobe.

Finally missed, the Hornets' opening shooting rate was amazing!
"Return to defense." Paul saw Wei Lai coming from the frontcourt like an arrow, while Marcus Thornton couldn't catch up behind him and was thrown away by a position.

Kobe passed the ball like a quarterback, passed directly over the crowd, and passed to the sky above Wei Lai. 14-11.

Surprisingly fast, the entire attack takes no more than 3 seconds.

Wei Lai, who landed on the ground, pointed to the boss and gave a thumbs up.

Kobe also gave a thumbs up in response, since Wei Lai, such a fast break no longer requires him to run!When there was no Wei Lai before, the Lakers rarely had this kind of fast break, not even before Gasol came, and it was okay after Gasol came, because Gasol has the ability to pass the ball.Before Gasol came, no one passed and no one ran!
But it's different now. There are too many passes. Gasol, O'Neal, Kobe, and even Wei Lai can pass, but Wei Lai basically runs a little more.This kind of defensive counterattack is very deadly, especially when the ball is in the hands of Wei Lai or Kobe in the frontcourt, one defense and one defense can't prevent them at all!
At this time, Paul took advantage of the few seconds of the serve, and quickly reminded Marcus Thornton and Belinelli on the outside: Don't worry about whether to score or not, return to defense as soon as possible.

Paul dribbled the ball across half court, this time it was David West's pick and roll, with the help of David West's pick and roll, Paul passed Kobe and rushed in!

Gasol and Kobe switch defenses.

Gasol raised his hands high, Paul fake fax cast, deceived Gasol, and then shot directly.

"When!" Missed, Hassan protected the rebound again.

Both teams then missed a few goals.

"Beep beep." When the time came to 5 minutes and 39 seconds, the official paused.An official timeout occurs when the two sides do not call a timeout within a certain period of time. When there is a dead ball, it is counted as an official timeout. The NBA is a commercial organization. If the NBA does not suspend for a long time, there will be no time to broadcast advertisements, and the advertising fee will not be paid. The reason why there is an official suspension is that TV stations have time to broadcast advertisements during live broadcasts.

"Thanks for your hard work, boss." Danny Green watched Wei go back and forth to the bench, and immediately handed over the towel.

"Thank you." He took the towel and wiped off a little sweat.

The fight wasn't too intense at the beginning, especially today Wei Lai was not defending the ball against the opponent's main player, but Kobe was sweating a lot today, trying to stop, attack, and defend.And this is still a back-to-back game. Kobe played a lot of time yesterday, a full 39 minutes.

So after returning from the timeout, the Zen Master replaced Kobe, Walton, and replaced Livingston and Danny Green.

The Hornets also made adjustments, replacing Belinelli and replacing Jarrett Jack.

Is this playing double guard?
Jarrett Jack is a strong offensive combo guard who can shoot and break through, and usually ends the offense with throws; his athletic ability is average, and the speed of defensive point guards suffers, but his size is enough to fight shooting guards. He is only 191cm tall.

Look at the Lakers, then look at the Hornets, the difference is a bit far.

Livingston is 201cm tall, Danny Green is 198cm tall; Paul is 183cm tall, and Jarrett Jack is 191cm tall.

Wei Lai dribbled the ball halfway, and gave Livingston a look. Livingston immediately asked for a position and blocked Paul, who was only 183. Wei Lai hit the ground and passed the ball to Livingston.

Livingston's turnaround jumper after receiving the ball, "swish." Easily scored points. 14-13, the point difference came to one point.

The dwarf double point guard is destined to suffer!
