The Lakers are not a strong team. They rely heavily on Kobe in offense and are not focused enough on defense.
Kobe was inaccurate, and the Nuggets took advantage of the situation to widen the point difference.
The Lakers called a timeout to adjust.
Back in the game, Kobe adjusted his style of play and he began to attack the Nuggets' basket.
Kobe and Bynum completed the pick-and-roll, and then used the change of pace to get into the paint.
After lighting up Camby, Kobe completed the "three-pointer" with a throw!
After scoring, Kobe pumped his fist and roared.
"Damn it, you finally got in."
Kobe Bryant glared at Li Yan. If looks could kill, Li Yan would be unable to stand up now.
"Uh!" Li Yan quickly shut up. This was really embarrassing, and he accidentally said what was on his mind.
Hey, that’s not right, Kobe shouldn’t understand Chinese.
"Boy, I don't know what you just said?" Kobe walked to the free throw line:
"But don't get me wrong, you can't guard against me."
really--
Li Yan cursed in his heart and glared at me without even understanding. You are so domineering.
"Kobe, don't call it a pick-and-roll. If you dare, dunk me." Li Yan provoked.
"Whoops!" Kobe hit the extra penalty and sneered: "As you wish, kid, don't cry."
"Don't brag, Dwyane Wade and KG both wanted to dunk on me, but I shut them down."
Li Yan is not afraid of talking nonsense.
"AI, why does your little friend talk so much?" Kobe complained while defending Iverson.
"Oh, whatever!" Iverson laughed: "Isn't it good? I feel pretty good."
Before Kobe and Iverson could play, Li Yan had already hit Walton with his back, turned around and hit a hook.
I have sent 3 assists in a row. It is reasonable to reward yourself with a single!
Li Yan feels good about himself.
"This kid isn't looking for you at all." Kobe teased Iverson.
Iverson shrugged easily: "What can I do? Maybe it's because I'm not as strong as you."
"Then let him come to the Lakers to find me next season." Kobe said with a smile: "I feel like he is more compatible with me."
Iverson glared at Kobe: "NO Way! (I want to eat shit)"
Arriving at the Nuggets' half, Parker handed the ball to Kobe.
Li Yan immediately switched defenses with Iverson. Li Yan continued to face off against Kobe. He let Kobe go a little bit.
If Kobe breaks through, he won't be able to keep up with his speed, so it's best to leave some time in advance.
Kobe suddenly smiled, and Li Yan had a bad feeling in his heart.
really--
Kobe completed the dry pull directly in front of Li Yan.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc and hit the net hollowly.
Damn it, this old man lied to me and has no moral ethics!
Li Yan mocked Kobe: "Where's the promise of dunking on me? Are you scared?"
The corner of Kobe's mouth twitched and he said with a smile: "Boy, I like to fight one on one and beat others up, but there is nothing wrong with my brain. Don't get me wrong."
Li Yan was speechless, good guy, where is the chivalry you promised?
Counting the ball just now, Kobe has already scored 18 points.
Li Yan's mission has already stepped on the edge of bankruptcy.
…………
At halftime, the Nuggets led the Lakers by 8 points 56 to 48.
The good news is that Li Yan has already scored 11 points and is very promising to score 20 points;
The bad news is that Kobe has already scored 20 points, and Kobe's skills are basically gone.
"Coach, I strongly suggest that you double-team Kobe. If two people are not enough, just use three. The other players on the Lakers are not good at all. If we kill Kobe, we will win more than half."
Li Yan sincerely gave advice to head coach George Karl in the locker room.
Li Yan really wanted Kobe's skills, but he couldn't stop Kobe on his own, so he had to shake him off.
George Karl thought about it and finally agreed to the idea of multiple people attacking Kobe. Indeed, this Lakers are nothing without Kobe.
Seeing the head coach nodding, Li Yan's spirit took on a new look.
Iverson was a little confused: "Lee, you really want to target Kobe? Are you so happy?"
"Sure, my system..."
"System?" Iverson was confused?
"I mean, I trained systematically to guard against top scorers like Kobe." Li Yan reacted quickly and easily fooled him.
"Okay, I'm optimistic about you!"
The second half started quickly.
Kobe was chased and intercepted by the Nuggets, who wanted to prevent Kobe from scoring even if they let go of other Lakers players.
Kobe made two strong shots from outside and both ended in failure.
When he broke through to kill the inside, he encountered Li Yan's block again.
"Flash's Contempt" is an absolute shot-blocking skill. As long as it is a dunk under the basket, the blocking rate of this skill is 100%.
Of course Kobe didn't know that Li Yan had enhanced his skills. He just felt that this kid was a bit evil. How could he suddenly jump so high?
Kobe struggled a bit under the Nuggets' heavy focus.
The Nuggets made it clear that they didn't want to give Kobe a chance to score. They even sent three people frantically to stop Kobe.
Fortunately, other Lakers players seized this good opportunity. They used Kobe to attract most of the Nuggets' defensive attention and scored goals one after another.
Kobe's scoring has stagnated, but his assists have increased rapidly.
But Kobe is Kobe, even if he encounters strict defense again, he can still score.
By the fourth quarter, Kobe's score still reached 25 points, and the possibility of Kobe not scoring a point in the remaining time was almost zero.
Li Yan's head felt like exploding. What should he do?
Kobe's physical strength is amazing, and there is no downward trend at all, but he is in poor condition due to his continuous use of skills.
The key is that even if I am full of energy, it is impossible for Kobe to not score a goal!
No matter, let's replenish our physical strength first.
Li Yan looked around, and he spotted a very pleasing beauty on the sidelines.
Taking advantage of a half-goal contest, Li Yan successfully contacted the beauty on the sidelines.
"Ding!" the system's voice sounded.
"The Master of Ball Control activates, the host's excitement level reaches 60, and Jessica Alba's social recognition reaches the threshold.
