This is why Gentry arranged for Richardson to fight.

Create a time difference and quickly establish an advantage before Kobe attacks.

Judging from the results, his strategy worked perfectly!

Kobe broke through Richardson with the ball, and his breakthrough movement was huge.

It was obvious that the team's start made him a little anxious.

But he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Before he could get to the basket, his feet slipped and fell!

Although he reacted quickly and made a pause gesture the moment he fell to the ground, the ball still belongs to the Lakers, but this forced timeout is obviously not a good thing!

The fans at the scene were restless.

They look at the sun the same way everyone else does.

A sunset that is about to set in the west is just a foil for the Lakers' new dynasty.

But at this moment, they seemed to hear the sound of a bell, and all the clouds and fog blocking the setting sun suddenly dispersed, and the blood-red light came directly, and it was so dazzling!

After the timeout, both sides made substitution adjustments. Odom came on to replace Bynum on the Lakers' side, and Allen came on and replaced Richardson on the Suns' side.

When the Lakers have the ball, Gasol continues to hold the ball in the low post, but he is not trying to attack the basket, but holding the ball to support in the low post.

Kobe made a reverse run to catch the ball.

But he couldn't get rid of Allen!

Allen stuck to Kobe like a piece of dog skin plaster.

When Kobe finally got the ball, he had to fight Allen at least four or five times.

After Gasol saw it, he took the initiative to pick and roll, but Allen slipped over like a loach.

Compared with when he was with the Nuggets, his defense has improved significantly!

Kobe pulled out his hand forcefully.

"when!"

Off!

The Lakers' timeout tactics didn't work out!

And Kobe was obviously not used to this sudden surge in defensive intensity.

Lin Ying blocked Odom for another defensive rebound. The Suns counterattacked again, and Butler chased after him and made a three-pointer.

"when!"

The ball went in and bounced out.

Really scary to death!

However, although they were lucky enough to escape the disaster, the problem still lies before the Lakers.

If they can't score yet, it will be a matter of time before the Suns open the score.

Kobe directly received the ball from outside the three-point line and faced Allen.

After a fake shot, the breakthrough changed direction and then turned around and fell back.

Allen's defense was in place, but Kobe avoided the interference by staying in the air.

This ball is very difficult.

"Whoa!"

But Kobe shot the ball in!

It only took him one round to find his offensive rhythm.

The Lakers finally scored!

However, Kobe's face was expressionless after scoring the goal, and it was obvious that the current passive situation made him unhappy.

The Suns' offensive continues!

After Stoudemire set a pick-and-roll for Butler, he walked out uncharacteristically. After receiving a pass from Lin Ying, he shot from mid-range.

"Whoa!"

Come in too!

Stoudemire's mid-range shot is both rough and fine!

He and Nash have already scored 11 points together in the opening game!

The fans at the scene were dumbfounded, and the Suns' start shocked them deeply.

"Whoa!"

But it's Kobe again, his fake shot from outside the three-point line turns into a real shot, and the three-pointer rises and falls!

11 to 5!

In the blink of an eye, the Lakers narrowed the point difference to 6 points!

He wears a purple gold crown with three-pronged hair, a Xichuan red cotton robe with hundreds of flowers, a beast-faced head-swallowing chain armor, an exquisite lion belt, Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand, and he sits down with a red rabbit and a horse neighing.

The heroes compete for the strongest general in Japan, Fengxian Kobe!

What? The previous An Fengxian?

That's fake Fengxian! Yuan Gongli pretended to be one! His true identity was revealed in the first round!

Kobe's five points were very crucial for the Lakers. They gave the Lakers a chance to survive and allowed the Lakers to recover from being stunned by shots in the opening game.

Butler's shot from the bottom corner was directly blocked by Gasol's help!

Moreover, the ball was caught by Odom, and the Suns' offense was interrupted!

When the Lakers attacked the frontcourt again, Gasol moved to the top of the key to give Kobita space to attack.

Allen's defense was more focused at this time, and he constantly challenged Kobe to consume Kobe's energy.

His defense couldn't be any better. Kobe changed from facing the frame to behind the frame.

There was a lot of physical confrontation between the two, but Kobe's footsteps were very beautiful, keeping him in a state where he could launch an attack at any time.

After a fake move that looked like he was about to shoot, he suddenly turned around and broke through to the baseline, and then shot backwards from an almost negative angle.

Allen's interference was almost offensive, but Kobe's rhythm was not disrupted at all.

"Whoa!"

besides!

What is invincibility!

Kobe scored 7 points in a row!

Staples Center erupted in cheers.

These 7 points, especially the difficult goal just now, liberated them from the depressing atmosphere at the beginning.

The pressure is now on the Suns!

This is also the strength gap between the Lakers and Spurs.

The Suns, who played the Spurs in G1 before, were also in good shape and defeated the Spurs directly.

But even if their condition was better tonight, the Lakers still withstood it in the end!

11 to 7!

The point difference is only 4 points!

"Defend! Defend!"

The fans at the scene began to cheer and the cheers were deafening.

The Lakers' defensive intensity has also increased!

Especially after Bynum went down, the Lakers' defensive mobility has also been improved.

The Suns' tactics were suppressed!

Nash's pass was directly intercepted by Ariza!

The Lakers countered the Suns' fast break. Kobe avoided Allen's cut ball during the fast break, jumped up and dunked with both hands to score!

After dunking, his right hand hung on the rim for a while before landing.

The cheers at Staples Center can no longer be stopped!

Gentry's strategy was very successful, but Kobe's ability to adjust was too strong at his peak.

And compared to other members of the Lakers, Kobe was obviously more prepared for this game!

There is only one ball left!

The loyal Nash and the bully Stoudemire barely managed to draw with Kobe.
