"beep!"

The referee's whistle sounded, but it did not indicate an out of bounds, but a defensive foul by Lin Ying.

If you are making such a fuss, you really think that the referee is blinded by his clothes!

Kobe got two free throw opportunities.

When he got to the free throw line, he glanced at Lin Ying.

Lin Ying's expression didn't change much.

If you carefully observe his game, you will find that he will first look for the penalty scale many times.

Especially when defending one-on-one, only by grasping the scale well can the defensive intensity be maximized.

Kobe made both free throws.

The Lakers lead 8-4.

Looking back, Anthony caught the ball and took a shot before being double-teamed, which also caused Radmanovic's thug to foul.

After experiencing San Antonio's defensive pressure, he felt that the air in Los Angeles was so fresh!

Anthony also made two free throws, and the Nuggets still clung to the score!

Kobe continued to catch the ball and faced the frame.

Although Lin Ying was called for a foul on the ball just now, it still made him feel threatened. This time he used his steps more.

He faked a shot and turned around to take a step forward. After realizing that Lin Ying could not be shaken off, he made another emergency stop fake shot. Then he stood on his pivot foot, fought for a while, then turned around and took a step with his off-pivot foot. He turned around in the air and adjusted his shooting posture to release.

This series of technical moves is dazzling.

In fact, the previous steps were Kobe's signature up and down steps, and Lin Ying also followed them.

But at the end of the fight, Lin Ying had no time to get out.

This is also the most difficult point for Kobe to guard against.

He knows all offensive weapons and can shoot in any area.

It's a fake move. If you don't put enough pressure on the defense, it will turn into a shot opportunity in minutes.

But once you increase your defensive intensity, your defensive center of gravity will inevitably move. If it moves, it will turn into a fake move!

Because Jordan's physical talent is unparalleled, he can solve more than 80% of the problems with one backward move. It is called "Tao to Simplicity".

However, Kobe's physical talent is relatively poor, so he will incorporate more skills into it, which is called "dazzling".

The goal was scored, and the Staples Center instantly burst into cheers.

Kobe's popularity in Los Angeles is not simply because of how many points he scored, but the way he scored.

When you watch him play, it's a feast for the eyes.

Sometimes it’s not even the most important thing whether you’re strong or not. After all, there’s a classic quote from the basketball world:

"For things like playing basketball, it doesn't matter whether you make it or not, but your posture must be cool!"

What's more, if you look through the data, you will find that Kobe Bryant from 2007 to 2009 or 2008 to 10 was not strong!

In addition to facing the Celtics' best defense in history, his shooting percentage in most playoff series was close to 50%!

For a defender who is often double-teamed, this is already a terrifying efficiency.

Otherwise, why are all the players of the same period impressed by him?

The Nuggets attacked again in the frontcourt, and Anthony was double-teamed in advance.

Lin Ying saw the right moment and knocked the ball to Smith who was cutting in. Smith didn't say anything and dunked through Gasol who was covering the defense.

Lin Ying said "good guy" and the ball flew away...

Because Gasol's style of play is more technical, he is also a representative of softness in the eyes of American experts.

Especially on the defensive end, after watching the highlights of being ravaged by Yao Ming and O'Neal, you feel that the experts are right.

But in fact, Gasol only has obvious defensive advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is confrontation and explosive power, but the advantage is that his wingspan is also 2.30 meters!

Moreover, his movement speed is already very good for a big man of that height. Coupled with his defensive enthusiasm, his overall defensive strength is not bad at all.

Or to be more intuitive, this is a guy who is about the same height and has a wingspan, but he is just fighting against Duncan who is slightly smaller!

Otherwise, why was Boozer an All-Star when he played against the Rockets, and then became a CIC player when he played against the Lakers?

Moreover, the rebound of this ball was also obtained by Gasol.

Gasol passed the ball very quickly. After receiving the ball, Kobe faced Lin Ying and accelerated the fast break.

The two moved from the latter to the frontcourt, with Lin Ying maintaining his defensive position.

Seeing that Kobe had no chance to slow down, he seemed to be preparing to directly post up.

But at the moment when he turned around, he suddenly accelerated his turn and then accelerated towards the basket.

The start speed at this moment is too fast, and like the previous ball, the offense is very deceptive.

However, Lin Ying still followed!

Although Lin Ying failed to guard the previous ball, both his defensive experience and defensive skills have improved significantly compared to the previous one-on-one match between the two.

This makes Kobe consume a lot of physical energy every time.

The moment Kobe flew for a dunk, Lin Ying flew to block the shot.

But Kobe pulled the lever and turned his head to dodge.

It's not over yet!

Of course, Lin Ying didn't think he could block Kobe Bryant with the first shot, so in addition to his right hand that was already attacking, he also saw the opportunity to attack with his left hand.

Hands, double seal!

However, Kobe's next move choked him again.

He took the ball back again!

And by gliding in the air, he actually turned and adjusted his posture in the air, drifted from the right side of the basket to the left side of the basket and then threw a one-handed throw.

Powerful waist and abdominal strength!

There are many things that attract Vanessa, but Kobe's waist is definitely one of them!

"Whoa!"

The ball landed steadily!

No solution!

The cheers at the scene have already exploded.

Kobe's personal status tonight is extremely hot!

"Lin, you can't guard against me."

After Kobe landed, he looked at Lin Ying and said.

Evaluated by the standards of a rookie, with his excellent physical fitness and anticipation, Lin Ying's defensive level ranks high in NBA history.

But let alone the rookie, even the best defenders in the league now have a hard time guarding him one-on-one.

This is not Lin Ying's problem, it is Karl's tactical problem.

For him at this period, regardless of how his teammates feel, not double-teaming is a wrong choice.

And because of his relationship with Lin Ying, what he said was not considered trash talk, but a kind reminder.

It's just that Lin Ying's reaction was something he never expected.

Lin Ying nodded.

Then, there was no more.

If you can't prevent it, you can't prevent it, but you still have to guard against it!

He also couldn't guard Oden when he was playing crazy three, but in the end the University of Texas still won!

The key is how he can consume Kobe's physical energy to the greatest extent.

Seeing Lin Ying's reaction, Kobe didn't say anything further.

Since Lin Ying insists, let him know the difference between himself in the playoffs and on the training ground today!

Anthony continued to be flanked, and Smith once again received a pass from Lin Ying.

This time he learned the lesson and made a decisive stop after catching the ball to shoot a mid-range jumper.

"Whoa!"

Don't ask, I've got a knife, I've got a knife!

12 to 8!

Kobe had a hot start, making all 2 shots and scoring 6 points.
