NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 160 Staples Plays Skyhook

The Lakers beat Philadelphia on the field, and Bynum didn't play a single minute, but off the field, he played a lot of roles and was full of firepower.

"Kobe influenced my development."Judging from Bynum's sudden decline after leaving the Lakers, Kobe may have boosted his growth.

We have to arrange for Bynum to go to Jordan, the prodigy 10 years ago, to let God lead him. It just so happens that Kwame Brown is in Philadelphia now, and the little shark can ask him what God's education method is.

"I think the Lakers' summer deal was just to send away the No. 1 center in exchange for the No. 2 center."

"Howard is a great player, but you have to get used to playing next to Kobe, he won't catch the ball every time he plays."

Ke, who scored 34 points in this game, was naturally surrounded by media reporters after the game.

This game is the sixth consecutive game to get 6+, so Kobe surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Jordan, becoming the only player who can complete this feat at the age of 30.

Facing the congratulations of media reporters and asking how he did it, he can still achieve such an achievement at such an "advanced age".

Kobe said that it was the "mid-life crisis" that inspired him to continue to work hard, and also mentioned the next opponent, the Bobcats.

"For a long time since the start of the game, the rookie Chen Xiao ranked first in the league's scoring list. As a rookie, he won the best of the month, and won honors that many veterans can't get.

This makes me feel that the league as a whole is getting younger, the physical condition is declining, and I feel that young people are surpassing you. This kind of thing inspires me to keep working hard. "

But after six consecutive 6+ games, Bryant led the league in scoring with an average of 30 points per game.

Kobe responded to Bynum's influence development theory before the game. He did not refute it, but said that he had experienced this situation before. When he played beside O'Neal, Kobe himself made sacrifices.

"By the way, Bynum is a hipster, and his haircut is quite flashy."

……

The day before the game against the Lakers, the Bobcats players boarded a special plane to Los Angeles.

After settling in Los Angeles, the Bobcats coaching staff also made intensive preparations for the game.

Although the Lakers are now ranked behind, the explosive strength of the Lakers with Kobe, Howard, and Gasol must not be underestimated.

"Mike, there is news from the Lakers today that they will decide whether Paul will play before tomorrow's game, so it seems that we will see the Spaniard on the court tomorrow." Assistant coach Silas said, looking a little regretful.

After all, Gasol and Kobe are old partners who have fought all the way. Gasol can become the center of the team in the offense. The cooperation between the two of them will be much better than the tacit understanding between Kobe and Howard.

Assistant coach Winters has a different idea: "It may not be a bad thing for Gasol to play. He is not the Paul Gasol of 2 or 3 years ago."

"Isn't the Lakers only lacking in offense? Their defense is the big problem that keeps losing.

And if Gasol is on the court, we can pick and roll Gasol in front of Kemba and Ramon, and use breakthroughs to attack their defensive weaknesses. "

"If Gasol returns, the Lakers will still arrange for the two towers to be on the court at the same time. Both Chen and Byron have the ability to open up the space. We can use this to attack the weak points of the Lakers' defense."

Assistant coach Brunson added to Winters' point of view, and continued with a smile, "At the same time, use Chen as the axis, find an open space and punish them with shots. The Lakers have a lot of problems now."

Indeed, indeed, the coaches in the room would smile heartily.

This season, the Lakers are in chaos on and off the court, losing all preseason games, and the new regular season starts with 1 win and 4 losses.

The Lakers management did not hesitate to fire Mike Brown, who lacked prestige and lacked control over the team. Even though Brown led the team to third in the Western Conference last season, the record was not bad.

During the search for a new head coach, the Lakers were temporarily led by assistant coach Bernie Bickerstaff, but achieved the opposite record of 4 wins and 1 loss.

Then D'Antoni took office. The current overall record is 11 wins and 14 losses. The record of the first two coaches is only 6 wins and 9 losses. The last win in Philadelphia was the first consecutive victory under D'Antoni's coaching.

Obviously, D'Antoni hasn't brought this star-studded but problematic Lakers team on track.

……

Away team player tunnel.

Bobcats players are mobilizing around the game.

"Resolutely break through, resolutely shoot. Play according to our pre-match deployment, don't feel intimidated just because they have Kobe and Dwight.

Dwight handed it to me, Kobe, we can rely on the strength of the team to limit him.

Listen, they are now the bottom 4 in the West, the Knicks can beat them, the Magic can beat them, as representatives of the East, what are we coming to Los Angeles for? "

"victory!"

"Go, let's play."

……

"CCTV, CCTV.

Welcome everyone to watch the game between the Lakers and Bobcats on time on Wednesday, December 12, capital time.This game is explained by Zhang Weiping and I. "The commentator Yu Jia gave the opening speech.

Before the game started, Zhang Weiping began to talk: "Hey, both teams in this game are teams that our fans are very familiar with. The Bobcats have Chen Xiao, not to mention the Lakers. They have a strong fan base.

However, the situation was reversed when the two teams met for the first time this season.Before the game, everyone thought that the Big Four Lakers would make great strides, after all, this famous name is here.

But the Bobcats had such a poor record last season, even if the No. [-] pick Chen Xiao joins, there will still be a process of improvement.

As a result, unexpectedly, the Bobcats are now ranked first in the Eastern Conference, while the Lakers can only be ranked in the fourth-to-last position in the Western Conference, a short distance from the playoffs. "

“昨天联盟官方是公布了开赛第7周的周最佳，陈逍也是凭借上一周3胜1负场均31.5分15.8篮板2.8封盖第三次获得周最佳的荣誉，祝贺陈逍。”昨天没有山猫比赛，因此于嘉在今天赛前播报这一获奖公告。

"Okay, now the starting lineups of both teams have been released." After the gossip, Yu Jia looked at the starting lineup information just received and said.

"The home team, the Lakers, Gasol is finally back. The starting five are Howard and the Gasol twin towers. Kobe and Duhon are in the backcourt. The teenager Devin Ebanks replaced Artest. Served as the starting small forward.

For the Bobcats, Chen Xiao, Mullens, Middleton, Henderson, and Walker are still the standard lineup. "

"Director Zhang, what do you think is the purpose of the Lakers changing their tactics to bring Ebanks up?" Yu Jia asked.

"Maybe let Artest lead the second team. They have strong offensive firepower. Artest is playing better and better now, including this career high in rebounds, what does it include." Zhang Weiping replied vaguely.

At this time, Chen Xiao had also set foot on the floor of the Lakers, with countless championship flags and retired jerseys hanging on his head.

Chamberlain on the 13th and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on the 33rd are both flying over the Staples Arena.

On the other hand, the Spectrum Center Arena is clean.

However, the glory of the ancestors and the accumulation of history did not affect today's confrontation. Chen Xiao retracted his thoughts and walked towards the center of the floor.

After exchanging pleasantries with Gasol, who had exchanged with the Olympic Games, Chen Xiao came to the center line.

The monster in front of him was wearing a yellow headband and the iconic energy armguards on both hands, but in Chen Xiao's view, the purple armguards with the yellow headband didn't look that good.

It's still the most feeling when it's magic.

Seeing Chen Xiao staring at his equipment, Warcraft grinned, obviously Warcraft was in a good mood today.

Howard took the initiative and said, "Hey, Chen, I watched the Knicks game. You played well and beat Tyson, the best defensive player." While talking about DPOY, Howard laughed.

Keeping a smile, Chen Xiao watched Howard happy there, but at this moment, Kobe on the right in his field of vision had a serious expression, and it was cloudy and cloudy.

Seeing referee No. 14 coming over with the ball in his hand, the casual crowd calmed down, bent down and waited for the ball.

After listening to the referee's reminder, Chen Xiao bent his knees and stretched out his left hand, his eyes fixed on the basketball held by the referee with both hands.

The moment the basketball was released from his hand, Chen Xiao bounced it up violently, stretched his left hand straight towards the upward trajectory of the basketball, and hooked his fingers.

From the perspective of the broadcast, in the eyes of thousands of fans, the basketball flew towards the Bobcats on the left half.

Chen Xiao once again helped the home team win the opening ball and got off to a good start.

"Hey, height and long arms are good. Howard's jumping speed is not as good as Chen Xiao's stretching out his hands." Director Zhang sighed with Walker's ability to hold the ball in the backcourt.

"However, although Howard is famous for his jumping skills, Chen Xiao is not much inferior to Warcraft when it comes to the maximum reach." Yu Jia added.

"Yes, yes, Chen Xiao's previous physical test had a maximum touch height of nearly 3 meters, and Howard's previous record in the Magic was 8 meters. Touching the ball, Chen Xiao feels good about the ball."

At this moment, Walker brought the ball to the frontcourt of the Lakers.

All the fans in the Staples Arena, all the fans in front of the screen were engrossed in anticipating whether Chen Xiao would still choose post-up singles at the beginning.

Even if this is Chen Xiao's habit, it can also be said to be the Bobcats' opening singles tactic, allowing the team to start with the strongest point of attack.

But this time Chen Xiao is facing up to three consecutive DPOYs, the shadow of a famous tree. At least in terms of defense, Howard's reputation is not inferior to Duncan's, especially when Howard is playing right now.

Almost no one will take the initiative to choose to back Howard.

However, Chen Xiao, who stepped into the low position on the right, has already given the answer with his actions.

As for what Chen Xiao thought, he must play, there is no center that I can't play!As for whether you can get in or not, let's talk about it.

After a little contact with Howard, Chen Xiao realized that Howard's chiseled upper body muscles are not just good-looking.

The strength from pushing Chen Xiao's hands made Chen Xiao silently rank Howard's upper body strength as the first in the NBA, at least among the current matchup players.

Adjusting his footsteps, turning around and bending his hips, with his back against Howard, Chen Xiao still assumed a position, and opened his left hand to successfully receive the pass from the outside.

Howard behind him didn't choose to go around the front or sideways to try to get the ball, but just lowered his center of gravity, put his hands on his chest, pressed against Chen Xiao, and waited for Chen Xiao's back hit.

Chen Xiao released the ball with his left hand, exerted tentative force, and hit Howard's chest with his right back shoulder. The force of the impact was absorbed by Howard's arm and chest like a muddy cow.

Chen Xiao, who had sensed Howard's power confrontation, did not panic, after all, he had expected it.

Yao Ming can eat, sleep, and fight World of Warcraft with the league's top lower body strength and the most stable lower body. Chen Xiao naturally does not have Yao Ming's 150 kg weight at his peak and unprecedented lower body strength.

But Chen Xiao has a higher reach and a unique skyhook.

Continue to exert force and hit the back two times in a row. Although there is still 10 feet away from the basket, Chen Xiao, who found the rhythm after the back hit, did not hesitate. He received the ball and turned halfway towards the bottom line. , raised his right hand high, reached the highest point as if hovering for an instant, and flicked his fingers and wrists lightly.

The basketball passed Howard's raised arm wearing a wristband, "swish", the basketball flew into the basket at exactly 45 degrees, hitting the net and making a wonderful goal sound.

"Good shot! Chen Xiao's first shot at Staples was a skyhook, and he scored the first goal against Howard." Seeing the ball hit the net, Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

"Hey, just hit like this. Chen Xiao is not as heavy as Yao Ming, but he also has the same soft touch. The choice of turning over and hooking after two back hits is very reasonable." Director Zhang said it was reasonable.

The Staples Arena, which accommodates 18997 people, was in a commotion today, and many older fans with gray beards couldn't help but look up at the No. 33 jersey above the arena.

The exact same movements and similar body shapes almost brought them back 30 years ago.

However, the movement and body shape can be similar, and the thick hair on Chen Xiao's head is still very different from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in the Lakers period.

The first defensive defeat, Howard shook his head and shook off the shot height that went straight into the sky, picked up the basketball under the basket, trotted two steps towards the baseline, and sent the ball to point guard Duhon.

Du Hong dribbled the ball across half court, Howard raised the pick-and-roll and then rolled down immediately. After Chen Xiao's delay, Du Hong immediately chased Howard back, and caught up with Howard who was delayed for a moment by Mullens at the free throw line on the edge of the paint.

Seeing Howard turned around smoothly and turned into the restricted area at once, raised his left hand and opened his right hand.

Chen Xiao, who had lost the initiative, could only raise his right hand high, trying to prevent the direct connection between Gasol, who was holding the ball in a high position, and Warcraft.

But Middleton, who saw Howard going down to the basket for two steps to help defend, exposed Ebanks in the right corner. Gasol raised the ball and swung Ebanks. Point shot, hit the Lakers' first shot.

At the moment of the shot, he turned around and caught Howard who walked away from the basket and asked for the ball from Ebanks. Chen Xiao watched the basketball enter the net and took a good look at it. At this time, the attack time took 8 seconds.

D'Antoni brought the bombardment to the Lakers.

Mullens came back to serve, Walker took the ball to the front court to try to break through, the top of the arc was blocked by Gasol, pulled the ball to the left, and gave the ball to Mullens who was running over.

At this time, Chen Xiao, who subconsciously came to the low position, met Mullens who was holding the ball at the top of the arc. Without hesitation, Mullens immediately pushed the ball with his right hand and hit the ball to Chen Xiao.

At this time, Chen Xiaofu, who was facing Howard sideways, was so conscious that he caught the ball and took a quick step towards the basket, stepping on the collision line to close the ball.

Chen Xiao, who originally planned to take a step to attack the basket immediately, hit the ball with his back and bumped into Howard, who was moving quickly. Chen Xiao, who knew that he had lost a good opportunity at this time, turned his head and saw Henderson and gave the ball.

Henderson didn't choose to shoot himself, but passed the ball to Mullens who was one step up from the top of the arc.

Mullens took the ball and dribbled one step, reached the three-point line, and faced Gasol with a long-range shot.

As soon as the shot was made, Chen Xiao, who was trying to grab the offensive rebound, rushed to the basket, only to hear a "wow", and the basketball rolled up the net.

This gun is full of power, which is different from the soft sound of scoring.

Running back, looking at Mullens who was seriously posing defensively after the attack, Chen Xiao only felt a little unreal and illusory. Is this going to be big today?

After saving for so long, according to the law of character conservation, it's time to come.

Dunlap on the sidelines was even more delighted. Mullens hit Gasol with a three-pointer. Although it was not expected before the game, he used a breakthrough to attack Gasol, but the 3-pointer was 2 point more than the 1-pointer. .If Mullens opened, the game would be much easier to play.

In the next round, Chen Xiao seemed to sense something about the movement of the Lakers.

Kobe brought the ball to the frontcourt. Chen Xiao watched Kobe's movement while paying attention to Howard's running position.

"Paul, this is low."

I saw Kobe yelling while looking at Chen Xiao and waving his hands. Then, in Chen Xiao's vision, Gasol came to Kobe's side and asked for the ball in the low post. Kobe passed the ball to Ebanks in the corner, and then transferred To the hands of Gasol in the low post.

Gasol stood in a low position on one side, and Chen Xiao had almost nothing to do. Howard, the monster here, seemed to be a lost beast, and took two steps to look at it blankly.

The two watched Gasol take a jump shot after a tentative step, but he missed the jump shot. At this time, Howard immediately chose to turn around, and Chen Xiao protected the rebound without any pressure.

Chen Xiao's mind turned a thousand times, thinking too much, thinking too much, Gasol just came back and Kobe asked him to hold the ball in the low post to find his touch, which is very reasonable.

Passing the ball to Walker, Chen Xiao ran to the frontcourt.

The Bobcats made a cross-run. Chen Xiao wanted to go to the low post on the other side, but Henderson also came over and tried to block Howard, allowing Chen Xiao to catch the ball directly from the bottom line.

However, due to the obvious gap in stature, Henderson had no choice but to run away obediently as soon as Howard made money, and Chen Xiao also gave Howard no chance to easily get a position with his hands.

Forget it, Master Huo is not that easy to play, Chen Xiao gave up his position, and Walker passed the ball to Henderson who responded.

At this time, Mullens was extremely active in the low post on the other side to get Gasol to take a position. Mullens, who successfully defended with a three-pointer, can still be believed.

After the outside pass, Mullens received the ball.

Chen Xiao, who was repeating the positioning of the basket with Howard, saw Mu Shen throw the ball into the basket with his right hand in an awkward position.

OK, Mullens, who has both internal and external blossoms, has been approved by Chen Xiao, and he can be called Mu Shen for the time being.

No, is it appropriate for you to bully Mrs. Jia who has just returned from two weeks of injury?If you have the ability, you continue, Chen Xiao thinks that Mu Shen won't be able to last.
