NBA: I coach Kobe

During the timeout, Popovich unhurriedly followed the players to talk about his response, this kind of situation that the inside line could not beat the Lakers, he had already expected.

Returning from a timeout, the Spurs immediately adjusted, replacing them with the sharpest knife on their bench, Ginobili.

Once back, Ginobili helped the Spurs chase four straight points through his excellent shooting ability.

The offensive end of the Lakers is a bit sluggish, and Duncan has become extremely serious after returning to the court.

The Spurs’ interior defense also limited Gasol and Howard at once.

The twin towers have no way to play, so the Lakers can only rely on Kobe.

But today, although Kobe’s feel is not bad, it is not very good, under the strict defense of the opponent, he shot three times in a row and only hit one shot.

“The Lakers seem to be in trouble, and the Spurs have scored consecutive points and have chased the score back!” Charles, Buckley, explained.

“Yes, Popovich is a legendary coach! Although Lin Li was very good compared to the other two head coaches before, it was very difficult to say compared to Popovich! Kenny Smith echoed.

The Spurs’ offense.

Tony Parker and Split came to a cross-cover cooperation, and then cut into the inside, and for a while the Lakers’ outside defense was completely messed up, and Ci Shiping lost Leonard and rushed over to make up for it.

Leonard was empty all of a sudden.

Ci Shiping underestimated the Spurs’ score, and the moment he just left Leonard, Parker’s ball carrier shook suddenly, and the basketball flew to Leonard’s side.

Leonard reached out to take the basketball, and at this time Ci Shiping immediately wanted to return to defense, but at this time Leonard had vacated.

“Ugh!” With a bang, the ball flew straight out.

Hitting a three-pointer, the Spurs rallied the score.

Seeing this situation, Lin Li could only call a pause.

“What should I do?” Lin Li became a little distressed, which he had not encountered in his previous matches.

At this moment, the cold electronic sound of the system came up:

“Ding! Random three-point trigger successful! The trigger player is: Pau Gasol, increase the three-point shooting percentage by 50%! ”

After listening, Lin Li was overjoyed.

“Haha! Unexpectedly, it was triggered at this time, it was really God help me! ”

Pau Gasol, as a very stable player in the middle range, he also has the ability to shoot three-pointers, although the shooting percentage is not high, only 30% shooting!

But with the trigger of the skill card, that’s 45 percent!

The shooting percentage of 45 percent does not dare to say the first three-point shooting rate in the league, which is also the level of the top five!

Lin Li directly picked up the tactical board and said: “Paul, your performance today is still very good, you can project a little three-pointer!” ”

As soon as these words came out, Simon immediately said: “How can this be…”

Lin Li would not care about Simon’s face at this time, and continued: “I’ll set you up a three-point tactic!” ”

At this time, Gasol himself was a little confused: “Coach, really let me shoot three points!” ”

Lin Li said with a smile: “When you usually train, don’t you practice three points every day!” Believe in yourself! ”

Since the coach said so, Gasol had no reason to refuse, and directly accepted.

After laying out the three-point strategy, there was also an emphasis on defense, especially against Ginobili.

Back to the Lakers’ offense.

I saw Howard and Ci Shiping leaning together, attracting Leonard and Split all there.

Gasol also quickly leaned towards them, and just like that, six people suddenly appeared in the corner of the court.

Nash was watching it all.

Immediately afterwards, Ci Shiping and Paul Gasol did the work of blocking at once, blocking Leonard, Split and Duncan all at once, while Gasol rushed out of the gap between the two people in advance.

All of a sudden, there was no one within 2 meters of him.

Nash’s ball was also passed immediately.

“We saw Gasol coming beyond the three-point line! Is he going to shoot a three-pointer? James Barkley shouted, “And the Spurs obviously didn’t notice that!” ”

After receiving the ball, Gasol, without any hesitation, directly shot three points!

“Whoops!”

“Gasol hit an open three!” Charles Barkley said with a smile.

Back on the offensive end, the Spurs gave the ball to Duncan and singled Gasol directly in the low post.

However, Gasol was obviously in good shape today, so this goal actually magnified Duncan without a step.

The 24-second offensive time was approaching, and Duncan could only throw the ball with a hook, and the ball bounced out.

Paul Gasol grabbed the rebound and immediately passed the ball to Kobe.

Kobe immediately launched a fast attack, but the Spurs’ return defense was also very fast.

Just past half-time, Leonard and Parker were already pressing on him.

“Kobe Bryant, is this going to be stronger?” Kenny Smith said hoarsely, “No, he didn’t, he passed the ball at the last minute.” ”

“It’s Gasol, how could he show up outside the three-point line!”

Gasol once again made a three-pointer from outside the three-point line.

“Whoops!”

There were no accidents with this ball, only the sound of the net could be heard.

“Gasol has once again shown his shooting ability beyond the three-point line!” Charles Barkley exclaimed excitedly.

Popovich on the sidelines frowned, although he considered Gasol’s three-point shooting ability, but he did not pay attention to it, because so far this season, Gasol has shot a total of 20 three-pointers, and the number of shots is too small.

“Look at another ball! Maybe these two goals are just luck! Popovich thought to himself, expecting Gasol’s next three-pointer to prove his judgment.

But Gasol didn’t want him to get his judgment right.

“Whoops!”

Gasol hit another three-pointer on the court.

Gasol shoots 45% from the field, and basically 100% of the goals when there is an open shot!

The Lakers pushed the score back by six points through Gasol’s three consecutive three-pointers.

Popovich did not dare to let Gasol make another shot to prove his judgment, and immediately applied for a timeout like a referee.
