Chapter 255 Did you see that, Kobe is so anti-drip!
The Knicks finalized the starting lineup for the new season.
The NBA officially announced the schedule for the new season.
As the defending champion last season.
As soon as the new season came up, David Stern arranged a big wave!
On the night when the New York Knicks receive the championship ring, they will face the challenge of the Los Angeles Lakers at home...
The Los Angeles media who knew the news scolded the league officials at that time.
gtmd!
A past champion is not as good as a dog, right?
Does this kind of background board have to pull us in?
Although Li Wan and the New York Knicks did not win the championship with the help of the Lakers, but...
What does Li Wan have to do with the Lakers?
Every time I see him win the championship, it is undoubtedly adding salt to their wounds!
Now the alliance let them witness it with their own eyes!
Ah bah, do you think you'll be fine if you turn off the lights?
Blue skinny!
When Kobe heard the news, he went to the arena that day and looked at his teammates with a constipated appearance, making them all afraid to speak.
They instantly looked forward to the opening game of the new season with the New York Knicks.
Don't get me wrong!
They don't think they can win, but...
Take a beating, let's get over this matter quickly!
Only after this game is over can they breathe normally!
It is worth mentioning that D'Antoni saw that the first game of the new season was against the Lakers, and he decisively hid the "new version of the boat" of the New York Knicks.
In the 6 preseason games, the New York Knicks still played the old lineup: Li Wan at the first position, Ray Allen at the second position, Vince Carter at the third position, Kevin Garnett at the fourth position, and Kevin Garnett at the fifth position. Tyson Chandler;
The end result of this lineup is...
2 wins and 4 losses.
Similar to the problems exposed in the previous closed training camp, the impact of this lineup is too weak. Although the veterans are stable, they really cannot withstand the vigor of the young people.
In Game 4 of the preseason against the Thunder, the New York Knicks were blown out of a double-digit gap before they left the field...
In the face of repeated attacks from Westbrook and Kevin Durant, the problems of Ray Allen and Vince Carter's flank defense were undoubtedly exposed.
In the end, the Thunder won by 20 points.
Kevin Durant was so excited after the game that he couldn't help himself, and his intuition told him that the day when he took his brothers to pose on the top of the mountain was getting closer!
this day...
Finally, there is something to look forward to!
At the same time he felt a little regretful.
You said such a big victory, why did David Stern arrange it in the preseason?
Why don't you let us play the New York Knicks in the opener?
Just protect your new "Alliance No.1" like this?
Row!
wait...
Anyway, this season they will meet the New York Knicks twice in the regular season, and then they will give you a big blow!
Also after this game, many media showed their usual "grass on the wall" style and began to question the dominance of the New York Knicks in the new season.
These voices of public opinion also gave the Los Angeles media confidence...
Now that 4 teams have won the New York Knicks, we...
Is it also possible?
The Lakers performed very well in the preseason. They won 6 games in 5 games. The performance of Jeremy Lin and Nick Young is impressive!In addition, the performance of the new starting center Asik is even more remarkable!
Could it be that we are not going to be the background board, but to smash the scene?
hehe~
Things are starting to get interesting!
In the opening match of the new season, they suddenly weren't so resistant.
10 month 27 day.
After finishing the daily training, D'Antoni arranged the lineup for the new season. It's time to stop pretending and showdown.
Li Wan moved to position three.
Beverly and Danny Green also took the starting position.
He could feel very keenly that the emotions of Vince Carter and Ray Allen were obviously not as resistant as last time.
After the preseason games, especially the game against the Thunder, they could feel that they were getting old.This starting position, if they insist on taking it, they can still take it, but they don't want to take this position just based on their qualifications.
They really can't stand the momentum of young people!
It's better to shine and heat on the bench!
A faint smile appeared on the corner of D'Antoni's mouth.
This strong brother with the same style of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" is really easy to use...
Using the original lineup in the preseason, in addition to hiding the lineup, catching the Lakers by surprise, and winning a fun opener, he also wanted Vince Carter and Ray Allen to feel the impact of the times themselves!
Hey ~
I'm so dirty!
10 month 28 day.
The opening game that many New York fans have been looking forward to has finally arrived.
That night, Madison Square Garden was full of people!
Interestingly, although the state of the New York Knicks during the preseason was not very good, the rebellious New York fans did not immediately "jump back", but gave encouragement as always.
Jie's gentle appearance amazed the well-informed Li Wan.It's like seeing a "Pan Jinlian" who loves "Wu Dalang" alone.
But if you think about it carefully, if New York in the past was "Wu Dalang", then New York now is definitely "Wu Er"...
It seems reasonable that "Pan Jinlian" does not "open the window"!
When the reporter interviewed New York fans, the answer he got was similar to Li Wan's guess.
Here's what New York fans had to say:
A wealthy fan has to look like a wealthy fan!
This is New York's fourth championship trophy.
In this league, it is second only to the Lakers, Celtics and Bulls, and these are "old giants", but the New York Knicks are different, they are on the way.
In all fairness, even if Mu Qiang's New York Knicks fans want to "jump back", ask them, is there anything more attractive to them than the current New York Knicks?
Therefore, you have to be hard to strike the iron!
In this way, even if the downturn is temporary, New York Knicks fans will gently encourage:
It's okay, man, once in a while is normal, come on, you can do it, you can definitely stand up!
What's more, what day is it today?
Today is the day to receive last season's championship ring...
Such a day is not good, God will forgive!
You may not believe it, but many New York fans have made plans to "lose tonight" before entering the field.
And as the "award ceremony" approached, the entire Madison Square has long been turned into a sea of boiling water.
Artest, who announced his retirement, also came to the scene tonight.
New York fans gave the most enthusiastic cheers to the "son of New York".
When the Lakers officially began to award rings, they chose to stay in the locker room.
D'Antoni took advantage of this time to hand over the Knicks' starting list for the game to the referee's seat.Before the game, he specially released smoke bombs, saying that in the last two days of training games, Vince Carter and Ray Allen felt very good, and he believed that these two players would be in better condition in the opening game.
The purpose is to hide the opposite Lakers, and then catch the opponent by surprise.
The Lakers here...
I really didn't bother to pay attention to the Knicks' starting lineup.
All of them stared straight at the TV screen, watching Li Wan and others receive the championship ring one by one.
Especially Kobe, with strong eyes, as if about to emit laser light.
After Li Wan won this championship ring, he now has 3 championship rings, far away from him...
Only one piece left!
Really fast...
The speed at which Kobe won three championships was already very fast, and he had three championship trophies in the seventh season of his career.
Li Wan is even more ruthless, he has won 5 championship trophies in 3 years, and what is even more ruthless...
He also won 3 Finals MVP trophies!
This Nima...
This kind of turbulent back wave made Ke at this moment feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in his back, and like a thorn in his throat.
The fidgeting appearance made Phil Jackson subconsciously want to recommend him a hospital that can "pull the ass with a knife".
What makes Kobe even more restless is...
On the player's personal ability list, Li Wan also ranked ahead of him, and the major media ranked him first...
Is this the first?
Kobe is very unconvinced!
On the offensive or defensive end, at least one aspect, Kobe felt that he could still suppress Li Wan!
Contest……
Let's get started!
"Black Mamba" couldn't help but want to vomit!
At the scene, Kevin Garnett's eyes were filled with two words:
eager!
Is this the championship ring?
I really want to touch it!
But as the "Wolf King" who once terrified the alliance, he couldn't be so unrestrained.
"Hey, I got another championship ring. Didn't this thing get issued when it first entered the league? Why is it issued again now?"
"That's right, one hand is almost full!"
Beverly and Kwame Brown sat down on the left and right of Kevin Garnett, and started chatting across Garnett. The disgust on his face caused Kevin Garnett to gradually collapse.
Such a sacred thing as a championship, how come it is in your mouth...
Feeling a little worthless?
Really are……
Flooded to death, drought to death!
Looking up and seeing Vince Carter also looking at his ring, Garnett suddenly wanted to cry even more:
Jie Nima only played a few games last season!
Got the ring too?
Vince Carter is also a little embarrassed at the moment. Since entering the league in 98, he has desperately wanted to win the championship for 14 years, but he can't get it. Last season, he recuperated for almost a season, and the result was good...
Here it is, got it?
This is life!
The awards ceremony ended and the competition officially began.
Li Wan looked at his system panel again before the game.
During the Olympic Games, Li Wan has been improving his physical fitness, and his physical fitness has reached 88 at present.Another 2 points were raised.
In terms of strength, there are 1~2 points of increase respectively.It is almost close to the small threshold of 85.
80~90 is the ability value of the All-Star to Superstar level. 85 can be regarded as the top of the All-Stars, touching the floor of superstars.
In addition, the back hitting ability has also increased to 62, just 8 points away, and the "11th all-round" badge can be opened, and Li Wan's offensive ability will be greatly improved by then.
Coupled with the arrival of Kevin Garnett and the growth of Danny Green, this season's New York Knicks still have the taste and style of play of last season, but the overall strength can be said to be steadily improving...
"Three consecutive championships", I'm here!
After closing the panel, Li Wan immediately became more confident.
At this time, Phil Jackson finally discovered the tricks of the Knicks lineup.
Beverly at No. [-], Danny Green at No. [-], Li Wan at No. [-], Kevin Garnett at No. [-], Tyson Chandler at No. [-]...
Nima!
What is this for?
"Zen Master" thought of a possibility:
Is this to test a new lineup?
It's not impossible, after all, after 6 preseason games, the performance of the New York Knicks was not satisfactory.
In such a situation, changing formation is not a big problem...
Can……
Do you still take me seriously?
"Black Mamba" is even angrier!
On such an important night, you are here to test the lineup?
Kobe is shaking!I have never been so bullied in my life.
The eyes looking at Li Wan became even more gloomy, wishing that there would be a [-]-round battle right away, and it would be extremely unpleasant not to fight to the fullest!
Li Wan also noticed Kobe's eyes, but he was not surprised.
Kobe is either angry or on the way to anger.
I watched him receive his third championship ring in his career today, it would be strange if he was not emotional!
The Lakers' starting lineup for the new season is:
Deron Williams at No. [-], Kobe Bryant at No. [-], Ariza at No. [-], Pau Gasol at No. [-], Omer Asik at No. [-]...
Asik was Kupchak's addition to the team after Bynum left.
As a second-round pick in 08, he was selected by the Trail Blazers with the 2th overall pick in the second round.
It's just that like most European players, he didn't come to the NBA immediately after he had a contract, but only logged into the NBA after 2010, but at this time the Trail Blazers had already traded his pick to the Bulls.
Because of the presence of Noah in Chicago, he has no sense of presence at all.
After two frustrated seasons, he was brought to the Lakers by Kupchak.
At this time, except for Li Wan, no one knew that the Lakers had picked up a big leak.
别看10~11赛季他场均只有1分1.2篮板，11~12赛季场均只有3.3分4.6篮板，出场次数也不多，一共才打了21场比赛。
But in the third season of his career, that is, this season, he served as the starting center for the Rockets, averaging 12.3 points and 11.2 rebounds per game!
He became the top blue-collar in the NBA in one fell swoop.
The only pity is...
His condition could not be maintained.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with his luck. When he was enjoying his horseshoe disease in spring, Howard airborne in Houston. Sitting on the bench, he thought about competing with the management all day long, and was eventually refrigerated.
Finally got traded away, but the state can never be found again...
This is quite common in the NBA. An injury, or an adjustment, the feeling is gone, and the destiny in the NBA is also interrupted.
Just like Humphries sitting on the Knicks bench at the moment.
After a marriage, he also changed from a top blue-collar power forward to a passerby.
Adding Asik was the Lakers' only operation in the summer, so it's not hard to understand why ESPN only ranked them in the 8th position...
However, after 6 preseason games, Asik performed well, averaging 9.6 points and 10 rebounds per game, which has already made the Los Angeles media feel that this guy who looks like "Big Bichon" has different energy in his physical fitness.
Maybe I really made a profit...
You must know that Asik's current price is quite cheap because it didn't play well in the past two years, only 6 million a year...
Here I have to say it again, the original Asik was snatched by the white-skinned pig of the Rockets with a "poison contract", and he also used the same method to snatch the "Linsanity" at that time.
Only this time, he failed to get a chance, because as early as in the "labor agreement", Li Wan secretly changed the rules, adjusted the annual salary increase percentage of the contract, and prevented Morey from prescribing any "poison drugs". The "contract" tricks people...
It's really not that Li Wan cares, but that he "accidentally" thought of that white pig...
It is said that since Dayao left Houston, the city has been rotten to the bottom, and it has not yet risen.
More importantly...
After David Stern saw Alexander's stinginess, he also ignored him. The Rockets have been in the bottom five of the league twice in the past two years, but they haven't won the top five picks in the first round in recent years.
If there is no inside story, Li Wan would not believe it anyway!
It is also his excellent form that makes the Los Angeles media full of expectations for the opening game:
maybe……
We really kicked this restaurant!
The jump ball was still easily handled by Tyson Chandler.
Asik is a typical European center. He has strength, good mobility, a body and a sense of space under the basket, but he has no explosive power and bounce.
Beverley dribbles across half court to the cheers of the crowd.
Deron Williams wanted to test his dribbling ability, and deliberately carried his body directly from the backcourt.Li Wan ran across the midfield to respond.Beverley throws the ball hard, then takes a look at Deron Williams.
You want to play like this, right?
Row!
Turn on "Mad Dog Mode"!
Li Wan faces Ariza...
Next to Kobe!
Originally, "Rattlesnake" was going to defend him, and he stepped forward, but Kobe motioned to him:
You "snake" can't do it!
Get my "snake"!
Li Wan slowly approached, and after a shuffling step, he walked directly to the basket along the right path.
He was very determined, so determined that Kobe was a little surprised.
Are you not afraid of my defense?
Huh~
Just a 34-year-old little old man!
and……
Thought I was in the national team?
In the New York Knicks, I have help!
The next second when the two confronted each other, Li Wan took the initiative to exert force. After separating the space, he continued to move sideways one step to the right. Kobe wanted to catch up, but he bumped into Tyson Chandler.
"Shh!"
Li Wan, who got rid of the defense, scored the first goal of the New York Knicks this season with a mid-range jumper.
The scene suddenly exploded!
Although this is just an ordinary goal, this is the starting gun for the new season...
Three consecutive!
New York is coming!
2-0!
Ariza looked at Li Wan who scored easily, and silently said in his heart:
Does this make any difference?
The Lakers fought back.
Kobe, who failed to stop Li Wan, wanted to fight back. Danny Green was very energetic, but it was a pity that the "Black Mamba" did not see him.
One by hitting the three-point line.Taking another step forward, Kobe turned over and shot a jumper, with a picturesque posture, and the ball went steadily into the basket.
At this time, Kobe finally looked towards Danny Green, with a hint of surprise in his eyes:
Oh, so you are guarding against me!
Danny Green looked awkwardly at his "teacher and friend" teammate Anthony Parker:
Brother, what you taught me is not working!
It turned out that before the start of the game, Anthony Parker, one of the "Kobe Terminator", taught Danny Green two tricks, and said to him confidently:
Believe me, this will definitely prevent Kobe!
Danny Green also confidently used...
As a result, the ball scored so easily!
It was the New York Knicks' turn to attack again.
Li Wan looked at the tight Lakers defensive lineup, exchanged glances with Kevin Garnett, and the "Wolf King" immediately moved to the high position.Holding the ball in his hand, feeling Pau Gasol behind him, the "big iron jumper" hits the ball.
"Ho!"
The slap on the chest made the audience boil!
In their eyes, the "Wolf King" wearing the Knicks uniform is even more passionate!
The Lakers continued to give the ball to Bryant's hands.
Tonight, under the double stimulation of the championship ring and the Knicks team change, his desire to attack is particularly strong.
Deron Williams didn't hesitate at all and put the ball into his hands.
It has been almost 3 years since I came to the Lakers, and the biggest feeling of "Little Fatty" is...
This is Kobe's city!
All his decisions here are final.
Although Deron is only 28 years old, he is very clear that the scepter of the Lakers will not be handed over to Kobe until he completely retires.
because……
If you want Kobe to give up his boss position, you must get his approval.
I want Kobe to approve...
This is simply a false proposition!
After all, Kobe does not delegate power, you have no possession of the ball, no performance, how to prove yourself?But if you can't prove yourself, then why did Kobe give up his rights to you?
To put it bluntly, there is only one way to let Kobe give up the ball, and that is to drive him out of the Lakers, just like when he squeezed out Shaq O'Neal and became the "new king" of the Lakers!
This is the reason why Li Wan asked Kobe before the trade, "Would you like to take the initiative to give me the boss position"...
So Deron Williams, who understands it, has long stopped thinking about the position of "King of the Lakers". He is now thinking about the expiration of his contract and signing another team.
Even his dream has changed from a championship and proving that he is better than Chris Paul to signing another big contract!
In the two years with the Lakers, no matter how brainless he is, he can understand that without the system specially created for him by Jerry Sloan, it is impossible for him to play the "Jazz chubby" state.
But at this time, it was useless for him to regret it. Jerry Sloan had completely announced his retirement. The Jazz management invited him repeatedly, but he refused.
he really...
I miss January 11 very much. If there hadn’t been that outbreak, maybe he is still the "Emperor of the Earth" in the Jazz now!
Also...
The look of Beverly staring at him made him keep digging out two words on the ground with the soles of his feet:
Scared!
After a fight with this thing, do I have to go to the hospital for a "rabies vaccine"?
Kobe held the ball, seeing that Danny Green was still defending himself, he did not hesitate to make a single shot.
Although after a season of experience in the development league, the future Danny Green is also one of the best wing defenders in the league, but he is still immature at the moment, and he really can't defend against the skilled Kobe.
"Shh!"
Still the iconic turnaround jumper.
Kobe Bryant again!
2 of 2 in the start!
Still not coming to guard me?
Tonight, he must force Li Wan to face him.
He wanted everyone to see that even the current Li Wan couldn't suppress him on both offense and defense, at most...
Mutual explosion!
Of course, what he most wanted to prove...
I'm still No.1 in this league, I'm not old yet!
Tonight's "Black Mamba" is also in really good condition. After the first quarter, he made 7 of 4 shots and 4 of 3 free throws, scoring 12 points.The immature Danny Green really looked like an "inflatable baby*" in front of him.
Let him fiddle with it.
But unfortunately the Lakers are still 30 points behind 35 to 5.
At the same time, Kobe did not force the New York Knicks to switch defenses.
Li Wan is still defending Ariza...
Kobe was so angry that he treated Danny Green even more violently in the second quarter.
Where did the young Danny Green see these!
His eyesight gradually faded.
When the intermission came, Danny Green returned to the locker room, slumped on his seat with a painful expression.There are only 3 words left in his mind:
OMG!
Is this the NBA regular season?
Is this the top player in the league?
This……
Are you sure someone can stop it?
Kobe!
Really too strong!
Danny Green feels like he is about to suffer from "scientific phobia"...
"Snapped!"
A hand suddenly patted his shoulder.Slap him to "wake up" from his daze.
It's Li Wan!
"Huh?" Danny Green cast a puzzled look at Li Wan, but quickly realized, "Hold on, I'm sorry, I didn't play well!"
At the end of the first half, although the New York Knicks were still leading, they only led by 2 points.The main problem is that Kobe played Danny Green into a funnel.At halftime, "Black Mamba" scored 26 points...
If this state continues, it may not be a problem to score 50 points in the first game of the new season.
Li Wan was also in good form in the first half, but there was a big gap with Kobe, "only" 16 points.
If he is dissatisfied with him, Danny Green is completely understandable.
Unexpectedly, Li Wan patted him on the shoulder again:
"Dude, you performed well in the first half. In the second half, I'll teach you how to defend against Kobe!"
Danny Green froze for a moment...
What Li Wan said, he did not expect it!
At the same time, there was so much doubt about Li Wan.
It's not that he doesn't recognize Li Wan, but...
Having experienced Kobe's strength, he really doesn't think anyone can limit Kobe.
Anyway, Anthony Parker is almost like a "fraudster" in his mind now. As far as the tricks taught by this guy are concerned, none of them work!
Li Wan also saw that Danny Green had so much distrust, so he didn't say anything more. After a while, the facts would make Danny Green believe that his "boss" is a god!
You have to ask why Li Wan is so confident...
Judging from his observations, although Danny Green's defensive effect was not very good in the first half, there is nothing to say in terms of enthusiasm. Kobe's 26 points are really awesome.
Can be wasted energy is not small!
In addition, in the first half, Kobe often switched defenses in front of Li Wan, which was a considerable loss of physical fitness.
In the first half, Li Wan's matchup with Kobe was almost always a pick-and-roll. The defensive end was also Ariza's type. In addition, from time to time, he would throw the organization task to Kevin Garnett. He got the 16 points. Easy.
It is equivalent to saying that the second half will be "Li Wan with almost no loss" VS "Kobe with 4% loss".
This wave...
The game of flying dragon riding face!
How to lose!
Li Wanneng is not confident?
Moreover, this was not his whim. Seeing that Danny Green made Kobe collapse, he wanted to vent his anger on his younger brother and at the same time make his younger brother feel convinced of him, so he chose to switch defenses.
Don't forget, Li Wan's upgrade template still has 2 "Best Defensive Player Award" tasks to complete.
How to make yourself an absolute leader in the competition for the "Best Defensive Player Award" on the first day of the new season, Li Wanlai will tell you the answer:
Just like...
Limit Kobe!
When Li Wan saw that the first game of the new season was against the Lakers, the current situation was already in Li Wan's plan.
"Pippen" ah!
Your "Jordan" is going to get the "Best Defensive Player Award"...
It's hard for you, are you okay?
The second half begins quickly.
Although the score difference has not been widened, the atmosphere at the scene is very exciting. The "kiss as soon as you see it" session that just ended, after two pairs of "runaway couples" were caught, the atmosphere became even more exciting!
Before the game started, D'Antoni turned his head and glanced at Kobe again.
In the first half, the Knicks only led by 2 points.
His desire to kill the Lakers in one wave fell through.
In fact, the New York Knicks played very well tonight. They scored 55 points in two quarters. After the whole game in this state, the team can score 110 points.
No matter from which angle, it can't be considered bad...
Let's just say the Lakers...
Do not!
It can only be said that Kobe's performance is great!
"Black Mamba" once again made D'Antoni admire.
At the same time, he was also a little worried, whether Li Wan could restrain Kobe who was in such a hot state!
"beep!"
The referee's whistle blows.
The offense in the first round of the second half belonged to the Lakers.
Kobe still wanted the ball regardless.
He wanted to see when Li Wan...
There was a burst of exclamation at the scene, which interrupted his thoughts. He got the ball and looked at the defender...
Li Wan!
This man, whom he had been thinking about for the whole game, was standing in front of him at this moment, coming to defend him!
Finally, let me wait!
Kobe was very excited.
In the auditorium on the sidelines, Artest sighed when he saw this:
I left early!
If I were here, where would I use Li Wan to do these dirty and tiring jobs!
Kobe's expression was obviously much more cautious.
He wants to prove himself, but he is also very clear that Li Wan's current defensive ability is not the same.
Consecutively defending Joe Johnson, Wade and LeBron last year...
This is enough to prove his ability!
Compared with his cautiousness, Li Wan's movements were much bolder. When he came up, he was a cutting action with anticipation. Kobe held the ball for a while, and pulled his whole body to the side, trying to take advantage of Li Wan to cut the ball. Forcibly break through.
However, Li Wan's center of gravity did not shift.
It's all about doing whatever you want with the strength of your arms and hands...
It is tantamount to saying that Kobe made a mistake in judgment!
Of course, it's not his fault...
In front of the top talent monsters, Kobe is not much different from people without talent.
Those with small hands, those who didn’t know, thought it was a girl!
Quickly moving sideways, Li Wan successfully withstood Kobe and struck again...
Still can't cut it!
However, Kobe's movement of stabilizing the ball was even bigger this time, and the whole rhythm stopped.
Li Wan didn't give him time, and continued to increase the pressure of confrontation.
Kobe had no choice but to grit his teeth and rush towards the basket.
Actually pass the ball...
But for the "Black Mamba", is passing the ball different from surrendering at this time?
"Snapped!"
Kobe paid the price for his forced layup.
A "historical waist twist", "Black Mamba" wanted to twist Li Wan's arm away with his excellent waist strength.
But this arm is too long.
No matter how he twisted, the final shot was still slapped down.
Kevin Garnett has quick eyes and quick hands to hold the ball firmly, holds the ball for a fast break, and firmly gives the ball to Danny Green's hands, assisting the latter to throw in a 3-pointer.
At this time, Danny Green still feels quite stable, and there is no "iron-struck country".
In fact, his unstable touch still has to start with a groin injury. Before that, Danny Green averaged more than 4% three-pointers per game for 40 consecutive seasons!
This kind of open ball in the fast break is not a problem for him at all.
"Come on, Kobe, come again!"
During Li Wan's transition, he challenged Kobe.
Kobe, who was blocked, was naturally unwilling. This time without any temptation, he directly took out his signature "post-up single".
But in the process of entering the three-point line, he once again felt the power of Li Wan.
After several confrontations, he failed to get out of the inside position. Li Wan stood behind him, making him feel like he was hitting a wall. Although he could knock it down, it was very difficult.
Finally took a high position.
Kobe turned around and hit the ball. He didn't rush to get the ball with both hands. Instead, he observed Li Wan's reaction before deciding which direction to turn.
only……
Li Wan's current defensive ability has once again exceeded his expectations.The timing of his exertion was judged by Li Wan. When he exerted his strength, Li Wan also exerted his strength at the same time. When the rhythm was interrupted, Kobe's movement of turning around after a large increase was not so smooth, which caused Kobe You can only choose to turn forward.
"Snapped!"
As soon as he turned around in front of him, Li Wanyi slapped the ball, accurately predicting and completing the steal.
The action was so fast that even Kobe didn't react immediately.
When he tried to chase after him, Li Wan had already made a fast break with the ball and completed the "Tomahawk Slash" under the basket of the Lakers!
The screams at the scene were instantly ignited!
If the block just now surprised everyone, then this face-to-face steal shocked everyone.
Danny Green's eyeballs almost popped out...
One block and one steal in two rounds.
Is this really Kobe who he tried his best to stop just now?
D'Antoni couldn't stop the surprise in his eyes. Thinking about his worry just now, he felt sorry for his ignorance.
Of course, the most unexpected is Artest.
Seeing Li Wan's two block steals so simply, he suddenly wanted to rush up and hit Li Wan again:
Thanks bro, give me a bite to eat!
This Nima...
What a terrifying defense!
Artest is too aware of Kobe's strengths. Maybe he is at his peak, facing this "snake" on some nights, can he achieve the effect of Li Wan's two rounds?
Phil Jackson's eyes were also full of disbelief.
He looked to Phil Handy, who was looking at him too.
This……
it is true?
Li Wan covered Kobe first, and then stole another from Kobe?
They can't believe it!
In fact, even if this thing really happened, they still couldn't believe that someone could do it.
If it weren't for Kobe's ugly expression at the moment, they would have wondered if Kobe had let the water go on purpose...
Although there is no reason for Kobe to do this, but... is there a better explanation than this?
Li Wan himself was a little surprised.
He knows that his current defense against Kobe will be very effective. After all, the 34-year-old Kobe has only the last tail of his peak. It is no problem to beat a rookie like Danny Green, but if Tony Allen really defends him , This season will definitely be limited very well.
that's the truth.
And this "death entanglement" is really too restrained for Kobe... The longer the defense time, the better the interference effect, and the probability of stealing will increase. It's just that Kobe's current style of play is "floor flow" style of play, using his feet to sway Get out of space, and an attack will last at least 5 seconds.
But he really didn't expect that he could make Kobe so aggrieved as soon as he came up!
A small stat that Li Wan didn’t know, in the 7 games between Kobe and Leonard, Kobe’s winning percentage was...
0%!
Yes!
Throughout his career, Kobe never beat Leonard.
There is of course a gap in team strength.
Among them are Leonard's limitations on the defensive end.
Otherwise, we would not have lost all 7 encounters...
Leonard's type of defensive champion really restrained Kobe in this period.
Li Wan made Kobe feel in advance how far the grown-up Leonard restricted him.
Naturally, Kobe would not admit defeat, and continued to single-play Li Wan with the ball in the next round.
Phil Jackson looked at Kobe's appearance and sighed in his heart:
Gone!
He is too familiar with this appearance of "Black Mamba", which is exactly the appearance of Kobe going crazy after getting into the horns.
At this time, he was in the mode of competing with himself, unless the game was over, or his competition had a result, otherwise, no one could call him.
Especially when the opponent is Li Wan, let alone someone can stop him.
Phil Jackson gave up decisively.
"Snapped!"
After Li Wan became more accustomed to Kobe's offensive rhythm, he quickly sent another face-to-face block.
Before the game time was 4 minutes, he had already given Kobe two "hot pot" meals and one "steal".
Kobe, who refuses to admit defeat, is getting better...
During this period, the Knicks successfully opened the point difference to more than 10 points.
At the end of the third quarter, the score between the two sides was Knicks 78 to Lakers 64.
Kobe, who scored 26 points in the first half, made 10 of 3 shots in the third quarter, scored 9 points, and made 4 turnovers.
Li Wan didn't show much on the scoring end, only scored 6 points, but he also had 3 blocked shots and 1 steal. At the end of the third quarter, he greeted Danny Green's double-team and gave Kobe Bryant a double-team. Gave a big hat.
Kobe Bryant with 3 caps in a single quarter.
What a "cool" word!
The way Danny Green looked at him changed, full of admiration, and he wanted to kneel down immediately: Li, you are my god!
Li Wan put his arms around his shoulders and said, "See, Kobe is so anti-drip!"
