“This trick is so cool!!”
"There is no solution, just advance."
"Unreasonable, so cool!!"
"Nice job!!"
Lakers fans saw Zhao Chen's classic step back and screamed and shouted.
They didn't have many opportunities to play against Zhao Chen last season. They could only see Zhao Chen's sharp retreat on TV and in the news.
They all thought it was cool to see such a personal ability score tonight!
Are there any problems with the Rockets' defense?
no problem!
Is there a problem with Beverley's defense?
No problem!
But Zhao Chen just retreats and scores with force, what can you do to him?
Rockets coach McHale scratched his head. He felt as if he was back in the playoffs last season.
In order to prevent Zhao Chen from losing his hair in the playoffs, even though Zhao Chen changed his jersey, this scene may still happen again.
On the court, Zhao Chen raised three fingers and shook them in celebration.
For him, this operation was ordinary, but it caused huge cheers from Lakers fans, one wave after another.
"No 6, poor Lakers fans."
"Bumpkin, this is just Zhao Chen's daily operation!"
"Haha, Zhao Chen is so handsome, woo hoo!"
"No chance, it doesn't matter, just give the ball to Zhao Chen."
Unlike the Lakers fans at the scene, domestic fans are no longer surprised that Zhao Chen can hit such a strong shot.
Basic practice, don’t do 6.
Rockets offense.
After Harden brought it over, he still chose to pick and roll.
Zhao Chen's defense is too difficult to challenge one on one.
After the pick-and-roll, Harden hit Hill in a misplaced position.
This time Harden didn't choose to break through. After continuous shaking, Harden deceived Hill and attacked.
"boom!"
Harden falls to the ground!
Hill put his head in his hands.
"Beep!!"
The referee signaled a three-point foul.
Harden steps to the free throw line!
The fans at Staples Center booed the ball, which was a serious hit.
Although Hill's body was slightly tilted, it was Harden who stepped forward to meet him.
This kind of foul was very shameful, and the Lakers fans shouted black whistle.
Harden made two of three free throws.
6 to 7.
Lakers offense.
Zhao Chen's face was also serious. It seemed that the Lakers' offensive success rate was very high, but the score was not widened.
Zhao Chen dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Tucker.
Tucker took one step and passed the ball to Zhao Chen, then made a screen.
Beverly was blocked by Tucker, and Zhao Chen cut in.
Howard and Ariza surrounded Zhao Chen again, and Zhao Chen distributed the ball 45 degrees to the right.
Harden was briefly dazed because he kept guarding without the ball, leaving a huge gap in front of Joe Harris.
Joe Harris has been waiting for a long time, plus Zhao Chen’s skill bonus!
The knife falls from the hand! !
Score three points! !
6 to 10.
The Lakers' offensive offensive was overwhelming after the start.
Joe Harris gestured with his arms vigorously.
Zhao Chen signaled to Joe Harris from afar: "Nice shot."
Joe Harris nodded.
Joe Harris plays very comfortably, and the boss understands his rhythm very well.
As long as he has a chance, he can almost get the ball.
Joe Harris feels lucky to have come to the Lakers as soon as he entered the NBA.
"Zhao's passing was awesome. He understood the Rockets' defensive intentions."
"Zhao Chen is a top dual-purpose player who can score and pass."
"Zhao gave me the impression that he was Kobe who could pass the ball."
"His scoring efficiency is higher than Kobe's."
More and more fans are watching Zhao Chen play with appreciation.
The Lakers are really different this season.
Rockets offense.
Harden's breakthrough after the pick-and-roll caused Hill to foul again and stood at the free throw line.
This summer, Harden has improved his foul-drawing skills. Whenever he has a chance, Harden will hold the ball and rub it against his opponent.
Harden made two free throws.
8 to 10
During the free throw period, Scott also made substitutions. Randall and Jokic came on at the same time, replacing Tucker and Hill.
The Lakers' interior height has increased.
The Lakers offense comes again.
After Zhao Chen brought it to the frontcourt, he gave the ball to Jokic at the free throw line.
Jokic's appearance can relieve Zhao Chen's organizational pressure.
Jokic stood still at the free throw line and raised the ball high. Joe Harris went to catch the ball, but Jokic didn't give it to him and raised it high to go around.
Zhao Chen went over to catch the ball. When everyone thought that Jokic would pass it to Zhao Chen, Jokic took advantage of Howard's defensive attention to be attracted by Zhao Chen, turned around and got rid of it and scored an easy layup!
8 to 12.
"This big guy can do it, he's very smart."
"Yes, I will use Zhao Chen's intimidation."
"You can tell after watching the preseason games that he is a second-round pick with brains!"
The fans continued to cheer.
On the court, Jokic also used his penguin-like walking style to defend.
Jokic shouted to Zhao Chen: "Boss, how about this move?"
"Not bad." Zhao Chen nodded.
Zhao Chen didn't expect Jokic to play like this when he shot the ball just now.
Jokic is indeed very smart. He couldn't attract the defense himself, so he used Zhao Chen's intimidation to help him attract the defense.
Jokic's appearance helped the Lakers increase their offensive creativity.
Rockets attack!
Harden continued to use the pick-and-roll to beat Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen bypassed the screen this time, and Harden faced the frame and hit Zhao Chen with a back-up shot.
But Zhao Chen knew Harden's moves very well, and Zhao Chen was not fooled. When Harden was about to commit a foul, Zhao Chen's defensive awareness ensured that he did not move at all.
Harden could only force a shot against Zhao Chen's defense.
"frame!"
Didn't score, and the rebound was taken by Jokic.
Howard had no offensive opportunities for many consecutive rounds, which made him very annoyed.
Howard hugged Jokic.
The Rockets fouled again, and the number of fouls on both sides increased quickly.
The Lakers continued to attack.
Jokic moved up high and provided a cover for Zhao Chen.
"Bang!" The benefits of Jokic's fatness were reflected, and both Harden and Beverley were blocked by him.
Zhao Chen didn't hesitate at all and fired decisively from one meter away from the three-point line! !
Zhao Chen's shot didn't make any sense, and the Rockets' defense didn't interfere much.
Zhao Chen's touch is great, his rhythm is great, and the result is natural!
"Shua!!"
The ultra-long three-point arrow hit the bullseye directly, causing water to appear! !
8 to 15, the score difference widened.
"Timeout!!!" McHale couldn't stand it anymore!
The Lakers shot 100%?
How did the defense work?
Fans at Staples Center went into overdrive.
In just the first few minutes, fans felt the great changes in the Lakers.
They are completely two teams from last season.
"Zhao Chen!!!" The Lakers' DJ tried very hard to shout Zhao Chen's name in Chinese.
Zhao Chen raised three fingers and cheered off the field, high-fiving his teammates on the bench in celebration!
Jokic looked at Zhao Chen's back with envy.
Jokic never expected that Zhao Chen could shoot this ball like this.
In training, I saw Zhao Chen's various long-range three-pointers, which was completely different from what I saw in actual combat.
"With the help of Jokic's screen, Zhao Chen pulled up a three-pointer. The shot was unreasonable, but it could go in. Zhao Chen, just play with him like this!" Zhang Weiping also shouted at the top of his lungs.
