It is difficult for Kobe to compete with James in terms of size. After all, one of the two is a guard and the other is a forward, and James began to gain weight in the later years of the Knicks.

But Kobe had too much experience and was also very familiar with James, so he just stuck to the moment when James broke through.

James' speed has not increased, and the advantage in confrontation is not that great.

But this is Kobe. Most people basically don't dare to carry James for a rush because they are easily injured.

But the defensive effect of doing this was immediate. James was forced to stop the ball and instantly became a little incapable of playing.

Because looking for opportunities to take difficult shots after stopping the ball is Kobe's strength, and James is still lacking in this aspect.

But he didn't pass the ball out, because if he couldn't beat an old Kobe, it would be too shameful for him.

He chose a step-back jumper after turning around.

The action, like the previous crotch in place, didn't have much beauty, but the effect was still there. He successfully distanced himself from Kobe, then leaned back and shot.

This shot was a bit beyond Kobe's expectations, but this is really not what James is good at, at least not what he is good at now.

Although he created a shooting space for himself, the force of the final shot was obviously not controlled well.

After the ball drew a high parabola in the air, it didn't touch it!

Even if the fans at the scene wanted to hold back, they couldn't help laughing.

It doesn’t matter if the movements are not very good-looking, what are you doing about these three non-conformities?

James's face turned dark on the spot.

Because he suddenly realized that what he had said to Paul before was another mistake!

In the regular season, the Nets did not give Kobe as much drama as they did in the preseason, and Kobe is indeed getting stronger with age. If you want to break through from him, it will be much more difficult than you think!

The ball returned to the Nets' side, and Lin Ying continued to hold the ball in the frontcourt.

If Lu didn't make tactical adjustments, the Nets would always focus on the No. 1 tactic.

However, Lin Ying did not immediately launch an attack after holding the ball this time. Instead, he actively signaled Kobe to come from the weak side and catch the ball in the low post.

As I said before, Kobe won't have too much playing time on the court, so when he is in good condition, we need to create more opportunities for him.

Kobe was a little surprised, because Lu did not have such arrangements when making arrangements before the game.

But he passed quickly because Lu gave Lin Ying absolute control on the court.

The fans at the scene were excited again after watching this scene.

Lin Ying is an absolutely glorious and great positive image in their hearts at this moment, and the situation is also perfect.

Kobe catches the ball and Curry Jr. is guarding him.

At this time, some belated fans realized that the Lakers lineup had major flaws.

Needless to say, the frontcourt is equipped at an All-Star level.

But both backcourts are too short!

This is like a "magician" who wants to transform into a singles maniac, and Stockton can turn on the scoring mode.

Especially, because Kobe was off the ball in the opening game, it was Curry who was guarding Kobe on the court.

It's okay to defend without the ball, but this is with the ball.

And what’s even more fatal is that the Lakers have no intention of attacking from a flank at this moment!

If the old Kobe is involved, it's a matter of face. More importantly, the Nets still have three All-Stars and a three-point shooter on the court. If Kobe just passes the ball, it will be easier to score.

Ever since, Kobe got a chance to play Curry one-on-one on the court.

Curry did some muscle-building training this summer, because he also knew that he had to improve in order to play, especially in a championship lineup.

Therefore, the actual effect of the two people's confrontation was not as expected.

Kobe did not knock Curry away after a series of backs, and just turned around and made a fake move.

Little Curry was stunned immediately!

You can practice confrontation and other things, but defensive experience cannot be gained in a short time!

In the eyes of the fans, Curry was knocked away directly, and then Kobe turned around and made an elegant fadeaway shot.

Familiar figures, familiar scenes, and...

"Whoa!"

A familiar goal!

This time, there is no three irons!

Kobe's touch tonight was really good!

A preseason adjustment, coupled with the fact that he didn't have to bear as much pressure on the offensive end as in the past, allowed him to quickly get into form.

2 to 6!

Kobe scored 4 points in the opening game!

The Nets fans at the scene could not contain their excitement.

They envisioned many possibilities, but Kobe's stunning debut was not one of them!

However, precisely because of this unexpected situation, their emotions quickly reached a high point.

"Defend! Defend!"

After the fans got excited, uniform cheers began to ring out from the scene.

James held the ball and started a pick-and-roll with Chandler.

The ball just now made him realize that the Kobe in front of him was not that easy to deal with.

As for why it's not with Davis, it's because Lin Ying has always been facing off against Davis on the Nets. If he hits Lin Ying out of position, it's better not to block him.

Facing Jokic in a mismatch after the pick-and-roll, James directly chose to rush inside.

He rushed decisively and very quickly.

However, he obviously underestimated Jokic's progress in the past few seasons. The moment he took the shot, Jokic's long arm stretched out and almost covered him.

He made a layup after dodging, and the action was perfect, but the angle was a little off. The ball spun around the basket and then rolled out. The rebound was picked off by Jokic!

After James landed, he slapped his thigh in anger, but Jokic had already thrown the ball forward in the next second.

A figure over there rushed out with a "swish", and the fans' eyes instantly became excited.

The person who rushed out immediately was Kobe!

After switching defense, he was already ready for a fast break.

After receiving the ball this time, he seemed to be ten years younger. There was wind at his feet and he ran towards the frontcourt.

The cheers at the scene could not be suppressed.

Amidst the unstoppable cheers of the fans, Kobe soared into the air, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, and he turned around while flying, and then...

"Bang!"

A classic reverse dunk and the ball went into the basket!
Chapter completed!
