Chapter 512 Super confrontation with Kobe!(1/3)
.............
The Knicks were rarely caught in a scoring drought, and D'Antoni immediately made adjustments.
The camera also rarely gives D'Antoni an anxious look.
At this time, the Zen master was talking and laughing with the assistant teacher to show off in his seat.
Brin said: "The Lakers successfully limited the Knicks' offense. They kept increasing their strength, while the referee did not whistle, so the Knicks' rhythm and feel were not revealed. They all attacked in positions they did not like."
Van Gundy said: "The Lakers showed a completely different look from the previous two games. Only when they continued at this pace would they have a chance to win. Let's see if they had a chance."
Brin said: "Lin Rui's touch has also fallen into a slump for a long time. He failed to make three consecutive shots, which is very rare for him. If he is not wrong, he will attack the inside next."
Van Gundy said: "For the Knicks, the task now is to get points first."
Two commentators from espn were discussing the situation on the field.
"Kill them!"
"Just fight like this!"
"This is what the finals should look like."
"Lin has nothing to be scary."
The Lakers fans on the scene have regained some confidence in the game.
The pause ends soon.
As the commentator said, Lin Rui began to enter the inside line.
Lin Rui is stuck in the inside line.
Lin Rui has many offensive weapons, three-pointers from the outside, breakthrough attack, emergency stop mid-range, low-post singles, etc.
Usually, Lin Rui doesn't need to play low-level singles. Yao and Randolph are the best among them, but today neither of them has any effect, so Lin Rui comes.
Lin Rui knew very well that what he had to do now was to score first and raise the team's momentum first, so that he would have the chance to catch up with the score.
Kobe is guarding Lin Rui, and Lin Rui is stuck with Kobe to the inside.
Curry looked for an opportunity to hang the ball in from the outside.
"Lin, are you helpless on the outside?" Kobe shouted at Lin Rui.
"So I'll look for opportunities in the inside." Lin Rui replied.
The two were communicating and fighting muscles at the same time!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Lin Rui's position is very aggressive, and Kobe is not to be outdone. Now Lin Rui has an advantage in strength and has to reach his position after confrontation.
Curry gave the ball to Tucker on one side, and Tucker hit the ball to Lin Rui.
Lin Rui received the ball with his right hand and blocked Kobe behind him.
As soon as Lin Rui got the ball, the Knicks players quickly pulled away. The Lakers players had no intention of hitting each other. They were very confident in the initial defense, and they believed that Kobe could limit Lin Rui.
Fans at Staples Arena are also cheering Kobe up.
A one-on-one situation has been formed.
Lin Rui leaned on Kobe, and did not push it rashly, but began to test his steps behind his back to mobilize Kobe's defensive focus.
Kobe did not take Lin Rui's fake moves. At this time, Lin Rui grabbed the ball with one hand and pretended to throw it directly.
Kobe couldn't see behind him and thought Lin Rui had passed the ball, but Lin Rui grabbed the basketball with one hand and shrank back.
Kobe's defense had a loophole for a moment, but Kobe came back soon. His reaction was very fast and he did not give Lin Rui a direct attack.
“Oh oh oh!!”
The fans on the scene saw Lin Rui trying to play with Kobe.
Jordan was also like this, catching the ball with one hand and playing tricks.
Seeing that the fake action did not have much effect, Lin Rui began to force himself to eat with his back.
Kobe's second reaction was too fast, and it was difficult to seize the opportunity to attack in a flash of loopholes.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Lin Rui forced himself to beat Kobe with a back-to-back.
Kobe's defense is very strong. Whether in terms of skills, experience, or physical talent, his defense can always help him play a role in critical moments.
But Lin Rui's offense didn't have much skills, it was just that he had great strength.
Kobe's experience and skills are unable to be used in this confrontation, and the offensive side is proactive.
Lin Rui leaned on Kobe and made a big turn to get rid of it.
This is the advantage of back-to-back singles. As long as the strength is strong enough and the footsteps are good enough, the attacking side will have an absolute advantage.
Lin Rui did not relax after passing Kobe. He could feel Kobe chasing behind him. Lin Rui rushed to the basket, and Bynum was the one who assisted in defense.
Lin Rui kicked the ground and collected the ball and took off!!
Bynum raised his hand to help defend Lin Rui. Bynum did not expect to block Lin Rui, but he hoped to cause some interference to Lin Rui.
However, Lin Rui jumped too high.
Lin Rui continued to take off and reached the highest point, and directly smashed into the basket through Bynum.
Bynum's feet became weak and he lost and retreated in the confrontation.
"box!!"
3 to 13.
After passing Kobe, Lin Rui completed a powerful and heavy dunk.
The cheers of fans at Staples Arena were completely suppressed!!
"Damn it, awesome!!"
"I know he's going to attack at a low post, but I just can't stop it."
"Jump up at the same time as Bynum, and directly block it!"
"The power crushes Kobe, jumps and crushes Bynum."
"Lin Rui still stood up and scored. This is a critical moment. See if it is a turning point."
"Lin Rui's talent is really awesome."
Fans are actively commenting on Lin Rui's goal.
Although Lin Rui is a famous player with three-pointers and dunks, the best thing Lin Rui showed in this offense was his low-post offensive skills.
Lin Rui has always been very clear about how important low-post offense is when the team encounters difficulties.
Low-post offense has a very proactive advantage when it is one-on-one, and it is easy to attract pinch attacks. If the opponent does not pinch attack, you can use your strength to force yourself to eat when you encounter positions 1 to 3!
Lin Rui never gave up polishing this trick.
but.
The Lakers are full of momentum.
After Lin Rui made a move.
Kobe dribbled the ball to the frontcourt by himself, and made a major change in direction against Lin Rui's defense on the right.
Then he changed direction to the left, in the high position, between the free throw line and the three-point line, Kobe made a high jump shot against Lin Rui's defense.
"Swish!"
3 to 15.
Kobe is very familiar with the home basket, and this feeling is great.
After scoring the goal, Kobe smiled white-toothed at Lin Rui: "You can't defend me, this is my territory."
Lin Rui fired back: "I swept you last year."
The smile on Kobe's face instantly fell down.
Kobe was obviously angry by Lin Rui's words.
Lin Rui doesn’t care whether Kobe was irritated!
Knicks attack.
Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.
Lin Rui did not want a pick-and-roll, but broke through on the right and then changed direction to the left.
