NBA: Legendary coach signs with league for 10 years

The timeout ended and the game continued.

Fisher was still the same. After passing the half court with the ball, he found Kobe, passed the ball to him, and then found a place to squat outside the three-point line.

Kobe also expected that the Nuggets should have some tactical changes to target him.

But the defender in front of him was still White who couldn't defend himself.

After Kobe took the ball and made two consecutive tentative steps, he was paying attention to whether there was anyone around to double-team him, but the other Nuggets watched him quietly.

That expression was like eating melons and watching a play. No one was going to come over.

Kobe snorted coldly. No matter what tricks the Nuggets had, he was not afraid.

After the sudden acceleration after the tentative step, White hurriedly followed him. Kobe's fast and slow rhythm made it difficult for White to follow. After seeing White was hit by a fake move, Kobe directly chose to pull up.

He had such a singles move before, and White had no way to deal with him, but this time White actually interfered before he shot.

The ball bounced twice on the basket and still bounced in.

Kobe glanced at White and somehow felt that White had become faster.

However, Kobe did not think too much about it and focused on the game and his own retreat.

"It seems that there is no change on the court. Where is the"Miracle Right Hand"? I don't even mention whether it worked or not. The strategy has not changed from before, right?"

Barkley said with a puzzled look.

Originally, the Nuggets took a timeout, and he was full of expectations. He didn't know how Wang Chen would fight back.

But the Nuggets didn't change at all, and were still beaten by Kobe.

"Maybe you have too high expectations for him. His getting here is a bit of luck, or every black eight team is full of luck."

Kenny Smith shook his head.

At this time, White did not cut inside, but took advantage of the team's pick-and-roll to run a three-pointer without the ball.

With a hot hand and a single increase, White scored this goal.

However, White's contribution on the offensive end was returned by Kobe on the defensive end.

And when Kobe found that Anthony did not play one-on-one, he switched defense and let him guard White himself. White's score was still based on opportunism.

It is unrealistic to want to force points like Kobe.

The first quarter ended quickly.

Lakers 27:21 Nuggets

Kobe played almost the entire quarter alone. The team scored 27 points, and Kobe scored 21 points alone.

The other 6 points were scored by his teammates by grabbing rebounds.

21 points, for Wang Chen, is still within the acceptable range.

Kobe's 21 points seem exaggerated, but in fact, Wang Chen knows that Kobe's 21 points are not without cost.

White implemented his own tactics. At the end of the first quarter, he had received his fifth foul and was one foul away from leaving the court.

Many of Kobe's 21 points were also obtained by free throws.

For Kobe, who has not yet fully grown, it is actually quite difficult to score 20 points in a single quarter without free throws.

On the defensive end, White not only fought against Kobe physically, but also used various small moves. His elbows were diligent enough, whether it was defense or positioning.

Of course, Kobe is also an elbow master. When White elbowed him, he couldn't help but elbowed back directly.

In this game, the scale was not small, but White had five fouls in the first quarter. You can imagine how fierce the confrontation was.

When Wang Chen was resting, looking at the [Information Tactics Board】

"The stamina bar is 70%, which is more than expected. I can recover about 5% during the first rest period, and there is 75%"

This is one of the functions that Wang Chen is most satisfied with. The [Information Tactical Board] can not only check the feel of the hands, but also the stamina bar.

75% seems to be good for stamina, but below 60% the stamina is yellow, and the ability will drop significantly.

Below 30% the ability can only play a basic ability, and the combat effectiveness drops directly to the lowest.

However, White also has a price. White's hot feel disappeared because of the quarrel with Kobe.

In the second quarter of the game.

There were no changes in the lineups of both sides. With the current rhythm of the playoffs, the main players generally play the whole game if they can.

Especially when the scores of both sides are relatively stalemate, a 6-point lead is actually not an advantage at all.

"White has already committed five fouls, and he's not going to go down?"

Barkley was a little stunned when he saw the Nuggets' operation.

"With five fouls, White's subsequent defense will be restricted, which will allow Kobe to score more points."

Kenny Smith analyzed seriously.

Beep!

But Kenny Smith's analysis was not finished yet, and the whistle on the court suddenly sounded.

Kobe just played against White alone and passed White cleanly. White seemed to be very angry and pulled Kobe hard from behind, causing Kobe to stagger.

After Kobe got up, he immediately found White angrily.

White was going to leave the court anyway, so he was not afraid of Kobe at all. He confronted Kobe directly, as if he was going to fight.

Fortunately, at this time, Fisher hugged Kobe tightly and stopped Kobe.

O'Neal and Malone were watching from the side. O'Neal was still hiding from the camera and laughing. It would be fun for him if Kobe and White fought.

He would not help Kobe, but watch Kobe being beaten by a group of people on the opposite side.

In this way, Kobe was also taught a lesson. Because a large number of people took action, the other side directly committed a large number of fouls.

But unfortunately, there was no fight.

The referee gave White a foul on this ball, but White shrugged indifferently. Anyway, he should leave the court.

"I don't quite understand what Wang Chen is thinking. This means one less player."

Kenny Smith also said he didn't understand.

Kenny Smith thought it was unlikely that White would dare to do such a move after five fouls. It must be the coach's instructions that made White dare to defend so recklessly.

White was sent off, but the Pepsi Center gave White applause. His fierce defense against Kobe still won respect.

Although he didn't defend Kobe well.

After the free throw, Kobe took a look at his new opponent.

Jon Barry, a shooter.
