NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 163 It's over

Seeing Chen Xiao turn around and run away, Howard had no choice but to lean over to pick up the ball and pass it to defender Du Hong.

Duhon dribbled the ball to the top of the arc and handed it to Kobe outside the three-point line on the left.

At this time, Howard raised his hand and entered the low position on the left.

Hey, Master Huo seems to be very single-handedly spirited, this is one of them.

Looking at the Lakers players slid down the baseline, seeing Howard approaching the paint, Chen Xiao took a step over to block Howard, and caught Howard's left hand behind his turn.

Chen Xiao looked at Kobe on the same side as Howard. Kobe saw that Howard was already in a low position, and after the baseline player came out, he passed the ball to Howard.

Howard catches the ball and starts hitting back, but with three consecutive arches, Howard only arches from outside the paint to the paint line, far from deep enough, unless he makes a hook.

According to defender Chen Xiao's intuitive feeling, this is not an arch, this is pushing with his left hand with his shoulders and back, and his power posture and back hitting skills are extremely rough.

After finishing the three backs, Howard, who is about to take the next step, has no rhythm. Every time Howard catches the ball in the low post, he will plan a back-up route for himself. Originally, he wanted to drive into the inside and then turn up the line. I also have a little Hook, show off a Huo-style small hook.

But with a weak back and body, the arch is only now on the edge of the paint area, and if you turn around and hook directly towards the upper line, the distance method and body feeling are not suitable.

Seeing Kobe in front of him posing to catch the ball, and Chen Xiao who seemed to be pressing against him behind him, Howard gritted his teeth and took the ball and jumped up the line.

But Chen Xiao, who followed him like a shadow, was firmly locked in front of him, and he couldn't find the right opportunity and feeling to make a move.

Tyne!Meta!The savior of the moment appeared in Howard's vision.

Grabbing the ball, he pushed with his right hand, trying to look relaxed and unrestrained. Howard passed the ball awkwardly to Ci Shiping outside the three-point line.

Although, Howard behaved awkwardly, but the ball was still passed in place.

Ci Shiping, who performed brilliantly in catch and shoot today, catches the ball and shoots directly. The arc looks like he is about to score.

Howard, who tried to act lightly, saw the ball passing over his head, and didn't try to get in position with Chen Xiao, but returned to the defense with brisk steps.

But I didn't expect to hit the inner basket and bounced out.

Under Chen Xiao's easy protection, he handed it over to Walker.

"Shua" Henderson received Walker and broke into the inside to score a three-pointer.

Looking back, Kobe got the ball in the old position again, and Warcraft still had to compete with Chen Xiao in the old position.

Facing Howard, Chen Xiao watched as Kobe ignored Howard's request and was "tap dancing" with Henderson on the same side.

"Tough, Man, if Kobe doesn't give you the ball, you won't leave." Chen Xiao joked while holding it.

I don't know if Kobe heard it too. He dribbled two steps in and pulled Henderson towards Howard with the help of Howard, the "pick-and-roll man" who was still stuck in place.

At this time, Howard can still stand still, but Chen Xiao can't, so he can only put Howard down, move sideways to the baseline and block Kobe in front of him, guarding against Kobe's immediate floating shot through the pick-and-roll.

Kobe took off, but instead of shooting himself, he passed a lob to Howard who was walking towards the basket.

Walker was so positive that he rushed back at this time and competed with Howard for the high-altitude ball, but obviously the result remained the same.

Howard knocked Walker off the high-altitude ball, jumped up and hit the board.

Chen Xiao, who came back with him, could only watch Howard finish with an empty basket.

After missing the rebound, the basketball rolled down the edge of the basket. Chen Xiao, who was behind, subconsciously reached out to grab it, but Howard, who was closer, jumped quickly to complete the dunk.

I'll go, get the offensive rebounds, right?Master Huo.But Howard's bounce speed is really fast, Chen Xiao feels that his [Bounce Master (Bronze)] is still more than inferior.

"Shua" Ramon Sessions, who had just played, finally found his form against his old team. He missed 3 shots in the first quarter and successfully scored his first three-pointer in the second quarter.

Under Walker's breakthrough series, Bobcats defenders Sessions and Henderson scored two consecutive three-pointers to help the Bobcats tie the score at 46.

You equalized the score just after playing, right?Kobe dribbled the ball through the half court by himself, and the half court began to accelerate. Suddenly, Henderson took off in three steps, walked in the air and scored a layup. The bottom line referee whistled, and there was an additional penalty.

NO!Chen Xiao only heard someone yelling, but in the noisy environment, he didn't know whether it was the foul Henderson or who yelled, but Chen Xiao could still hear Kobe Bryant's "hey" when he layup just now.

But this is not creative, you have to learn from us, and you can only be strong if you dunk the quintessence of China. Chen Xiao has already considered popularizing traditional Chinese virtues in the team.

The Lakers once again overtook the score.

It happened to be the official timeout time, and the players of the two teams went off to rest.

The short timeout is over, and the Bobcats have not changed much. It hasn't been long since they were replaced. Sessions, the only substitute, just made a three-pointer. Generally, this kind of bench player is a string of players. Dunlap chose to continue using this Lakers veteran.

The camera is focused on the Lakers bench. Before Kobe Bryant played, Ci Shiping, who can be called the euphemism of the Lakers, was stuffing a note in his nose, and there were several bloodstains on the towel holding his nose. The Lakers team doctor was also dealing with it .

The Lakers replaced Ci Shiping and Gasol, who sat off the court for a long time, and D'Antoni put on the twin towers again.

Hey, Dunlap on the Bobcats side only felt that he was ahead of the enemy, and it happened that the five players were firmly on the line. There was no Mercy World Peace, and there was no need to worry about Sessions' poor defense.

"Shua" Kobe made an extra penalty.

Gasol came on, implementing the coach's tactical arrangement of attacking Gasol. Mullens raised his hand and made a split with Walker. distance hit.

Chen Xiao, who was fighting for a position at the basket with Howard, only felt that Walker was really sincere. Dunlap asked you to hit Gasol and didn't let you shoot against Gasol.

The ball was really difficult. Gasol's long arm was almost sealed on Walker's fingertips at a glance, but Walker still shot and made the hit.The feel is coming, whether it's Howard or Gasol, Walker's shot is over.

Looking back, Kobe has been in control of the basketball since he came on the court. He took a step inside the three-point line and made a one-touch pick-and-roll with Howard. .

Mullens took a step in and made up for Howard who was going down. In Kobe's eyes, the white Gasol was still more obvious than the black monster, and he immediately jumped up to find Gasol who was vacant on the other side.

Gasol still feels bad and misses a shot.

Chen Xiao, who returned to the basket, caught Howard who was about to move, and Walker directly got the defensive rebound and quickly pushed forward.

Walker rushed to the right side of the front court at full speed, and Chen Xiao also rushed towards the basket with full horsepower.

When Chen Xiao came to the basket, he saw that Walker somehow attracted the defense of Howard and Du Hong. Now Chen Xiao was unmarked at the basket.

Chen Xiao chose to believe it, and immediately withdrew for 3 seconds without being afraid of the attack, and waited another 1 second to see.

Walker caught the gap between Howard and Du Hong in the flash and maneuvered, and tried again and again to hit the ground and pass the ball steadily to Chen Xiao.

Seeing that the ball arrived in time, Chen Xiao bent down to grab the ball with both hands, took advantage of the momentum and sank the ball violently. Just as he was about to jump up, a gust of wind came from behind him.

Originally, only a black marinated egg appeared on the right side of the basket, and a hand appeared in front of the ball held in both hands.

Kobe chased and flew past trying to block the shot.

But the ball firmly held by the two big hands failed to make Kobe's plan come true. Chen Xiao raised the ball and was about to dunk, but his feet hadn't left the ground yet.

Kobe, who jumped up, swung his right hand and hit the player who was also jumping. It may be a huge impact, which will force the ball holder to be overwhelmed and lose control of the ball.

But for Chen Xiao, whose feet were still in contact with the ground and continuously absorbing the earth's air from the floor, this little bit of strength was enough to sprinkle water.

After giving Kobe a shot, Chen Xiao clenched his hands tightly, and then clenched the basketball tightly. Before Howard on the right came back, we stopped dunking, put his left hand on the left side of the basket, and easily completed the layup.

"Good shot, Chen Xiao's feint is too real. He tricked Kobe who was chasing the cap, and then hit the board with his left hand away from Howard to get 2 points." Yu Jia said excitedly, "After Walker, Chen After Xiao continued to score, the Bobcats also overtook the score."

After finishing the layup with his left hand, Chen Xiao grabbed the dropped basketball with his right hand and threw it on the ground.

At this time, Kobe on the basket saw Chen Xiao easily grasping the basketball with potential energy with one hand and observing the scene of holding the ball with both hands in the air just now, he couldn't help but feel agitated.

As for what the waves were, Chen Xiao looked at Kobe's eyes staring at his right hand, raised his right hand to look at it, there was nothing special, and turned back to defend.

Kobe didn't think he was going to hand him the ball, did he?Pass the ball to the opponent?On the way back to defense, Chen Xiao was thinking wildly.

Turning around, Chen Xiao looked at Howard, who was holding the ball in front of the three-point line at the top of the arc, and was a little confused.

Why does a center like to hold the ball in the high post so much?Take the ball, just take the ball, and let the dribble go.

Seeing Howard making a hesitant step with his left hand, Chen Xiao retreated half a step later, what the hell, are you a master of the first step or what, you rush, you rush.

Seeing that Chen Xiao didn't come as planned, Howard took a tentative step with my left hand. Shouldn't you move to the left to guard against your left hand?What does retreat mean.

But all the moves were done. Howard followed up with a frustrating crossover and pulled the ball to the right. At this time, Chen Xiao didn't let it go, and moved his footsteps to paste it in the direction of Howard's breakthrough.

Can't Howard get another bad luck now and pass others?

After finishing the cross dribble, Howard started immediately. Seeing that Chen Xiao was sticking tightly, he jumped up and passed the ball to Du Hong on the right. After the pass, he immediately asked for a position with Chen Xiao.

Putting his left hand on Howard's waist, Chen Xiao waited quietly for the development of the matter.

Kobe on the other side was reaching out for the ball, and Kobe, who had already made waves in his heart, was about to speak out when he saw Howard messing around.

Duhon, who was afraid of long pass mistakes, had already passed the ball to Gasol in the middle position, and Kobe put down his hands and waited for Gasol's response.

But Gasol, who is facing the right half, may not have noticed Kobe's movements, and he still lobbed the ball to Howard, who was persistent in asking for the ball.

Sister-in-law, just pet him.Chen Xiao complained silently, ready to deal with this happy beast.

This is not eating?Chen Xiao easily took Howard's light lean, and saw Howard, who was in front of him with his head tilted, jumped up and threw the ball to the baseline on the other side.

It was Du Hong again. Du Hong, who ran from right to left, received the ball. Facing Walker's defense, Du Hong received the ball and shrank his shot.

"Shua", the sound of a basketball hit was played above Chen Xiao who was stuck with Howard.

Turning around, Howard, who completed the assist, was overjoyed and extended his hand to greet Du Hong, who made a long shot and returned to the defense.

Well, so this is all your calculations?Warcraft.

Chen Xiao looked at the scoreboard. Once the three points were scored, the Lakers overtook the score again. After a closer look, it should be 52:50, but now it shows 51:50 after adding the points.

Does this mean that Duhon's ball just now was a two-pointer?Stepping on the line?
In Chen Xiao's impression, there were more than one Lakers in the last quarter who could catch the ball and shoot a three-pointer, but they either took a step in and took the initiative to choose a 2-pointer, or stepped on the line and shot an extremely long 2-pointer.

Since it is close to the 3-point position and can be shot, why not shoot 3 points directly, not to say that it is a 2-point shot after finding space after a breakthrough.

There is an ancient saying, choose the good ones and follow them, and change the bad ones.

Chen Xiao is going to communicate with the coaches after the game. This kind of behavior of being taken advantage of by the Bobcats must be eliminated in the Bobcats. Maybe some games lose because of these 1 or 2 points.

At this time, there is not much time left until the end of halftime.

Chen Xiao, who rarely attacked on his own in this quarter, originally thought about whether I should go to the low post to get the ball?Master Huo, it's not like we can't fight.

But the answer given by the teammates to both hands is that your efficiency in the low position is too low~
Walker suddenly scored Henderson and made a three-pointer!
Henderson dribbled the ball through Howard with his left hand and entered the inside line. He jumped up and used his right hand to throw the ball to the basket. Chen Xiao, who was under the basket, even bent his knees.

But the sound of the basketball entering the basket and the referee's whistle sounded at the same time, and there was an additional penalty for the hit.

At this time, Kobe was complaining to the referee with his hands open.

The complaint is naturally not the ball, Henderson's layup and Howard's foul cannot be disputed, but the offense between Henderson's consecutive hits.

Bryant changed direction, turned, and finally wiped Henderson.

But Chen Xiao also left Howard at this time, and rushed to the collision line, Kobe took off, and Chen Xiao followed closely behind.

"Crack" Kobe threw the ball towards the backboard and was slapped away by Chen Xiao, and Henderson also got the rebound. Howard opened his hands to prevent the Bobcats from launching a long pass and fast break.

Then Henderson hit a 2+1 dragon.

Obviously, Kobe, who was dissatisfied at this time, thought that the ball just now was not a block, but a goaltend, and the basketball had already touched the basket.

In the Bobcats backcourt just now, Kobe had already expressed dissatisfaction with the referee by shaking his hand. Now that the ball is dead, Kobe continues to argue with the referee.

Chen Xiao watched Kobe chattering to the referee, is this the style of the boss, Chen Xiao was going to steal a lesson from him.

But at this time, D'Antoni, who couldn't bear the Lakers' defense like paper, called a timeout, and Chen Xiao and his teammates returned to the bench.

"Good Job!" After high-fiving Rick, the assistant coach who stood up first, Chen Xiao sat down.

In the past few minutes, his teammates worked hard, and Chen Xiao ran away to defend.

"The Lakers' defense is already messed up. They can't stop us anymore. If we work harder, we can return to the locker room with the lead." Dunlap looked excited and high-fived the players who were going to play next.

Playing again, the Lakers replaced Meeks, who had a stronger scoring ability, and replaced Morris.

Henderson firmly grasped the additional penalty and scored 6 points in a row. The Bobcats beat the Lakers 40:6 in less than 0 seconds.

Bryant catches the ball directly and dribbles from the backcourt to the frontcourt.

Meeks, who had just been replaced, was effective. He received the Kobe score and hit a three-pointer.

Another quick attack under the concept of 7-second attack.

The offense came back neatly, but something went wrong when returning to defense. Sessions, who received a long pass, rushed all the way to the basket of his old team, resulting in a foul by Duhon, who could only defend with his back. At the same time, his hands were like a goddess. The basketball with a strange shot like scattered flowers went straight into the basket.

And one.

"Hey, the Lakers made a three-pointer, and the Bobcats went back and hit you for another three-pointer. It stands to reason that if you shoot a three-pointer, you can return to the defense quickly, and let him hit one like this. This is a big defensive problem." Wei Wei Bing Bryant couldn't take it anymore.

The Lakers replaced Metta Shiping, who successfully stopped the bleeding.

Later, Kobe looked for Meeks again, but you can hardly count on him too much as a substitute player, and he missed a three-pointer.

This attack is a little longer, but it was completed in 10 seconds. Chen Xiao is young and has good physical strength, and he can accept running back and forth, but D'Antoni, are you sure that Kobe Gasol, Metta World Peace and other veterans who are not young can keep playing fast? Attack?
Henderson was also infected by the rhythm of the Lakers. Just two seconds after he arrived in the frontcourt, he made a mid-range shot and missed.

Kobe vacated the rebound with one hand and slapped it with both hands, and the sound of "pop" resounded throughout the audience.

This body is equipped with a loudspeaker. Chen Xiao ran back after listening to the vigorous sound of the rebound.

Facing Kobe who was directly approaching the basket from Walker, Chen Xiao took a step forward and was about to take off to intercept, but the jumping Kobe made a pass, just in time to hover the ball in front of the basket and give it to the basket. Howard baked a pie that could be eaten with an open mouth.

Warcraft jumped up to catch the ball with both hands, exerted strength in his waist and abdomen, and dunked the ball towards the basket with an impactful posture.

"Bang" the basketball bounced away, and the hoop was pulled down by the powerful monster.

The basketball bounced over the hoop, and the out-of-bounds whistle sounded.

Chen Xiao, who witnessed the dunk and dunk with his own eyes, saw that the monster had a smirk with big white teeth, not a wry smile, but felt that Howard was very happy.

But when he came to the frontcourt and looked at Kobe who was directing his teammates to defend with a serious face, Chen Xiao was thoughtful.

"Shhhh" Sessions received a pass from Walker and hit a three-pointer against Kobe, who was a step behind in Chen Xiao's off-ball block.

At this time, the camera was aimed at D'Antoni who shook his head and looked tired on the sidelines.

During the last timeout, D'Antoni thought it was the Bobcats' aura that made the Lakers players pay attention to defense. Now he only feels that the Bobcats' aura is fully up, and the Lakers' defense is not at all.

Before the game, who would have thought that Henderson would play Howard 2+1, and Sessions would shoot Kobe Bryant with a fake bukkake.

But that really happened just before halftime.
