Eight hundred and fortieth chapters his time
Chapter 844 His Time
The Lakers are also a team that keeps up with the trend.
They asked Jabarri Parker to play the fourth position, thus winning the most critical candidate for the fourth position in the 41 system. The other four people on the field are Tangiero Russell, Kobe, Jordan Clarkson, and Bogut.
In other words, Kobe is playing in the third position like Jordan in his later years.
At the beginning of the game, Bogut used his height to help the 76ers get the ball rights.
The Lakers beat Parker first.
In order to adapt to the strength of the fourth position, Parker has gained weight during the offseason. In this round, his playing style is not very skillful, just to get the ball on the wing.
In this era, the defensive concept and guiding ideology of wing-stacked defense proposed by Bulls coach Thibodeau, which emphasized the defensive concept and guiding ideology of local three-defense and two-defense situations, which were widely circulated just like the 76ers' 41 system.
The 76ers never respect themselves as defending champions, and they have absorbed the core part of Thibodeau's defensive philosophy.
Moreover, the defense that focuses on local blocking can give full play to the advantages of the 76ers' wing athletic talent.
The most exaggerated thing about the 76ers' defensive system is that it can accumulate four people on one side at the same time, and only stand one person on the weak side waist position to prevent the opponent from cutting into the penalty area empty.
What if the other party moves to the weak side? It’s easy to deal with. Wei Xia and Farid both have enough speed and coverage to return to help defend.
So to defeat them, the correct answer is to shoot three points. Only by using three-pointers to evacuate the players who are piled up on the wings can the system be cracked.
As for Parker, his approach was too rough, he was head-on, and he really knocked Farid away and forced a goal.
Strictly speaking, Parker's experience is still in the rookie stage. His score last season came from counterattacks, and the others were mainly various close-range balls after breaking through with the ball, mixed with adjusted step-and-step mid-range shots. It is quite efficient, but he is not a player who makes his opponent feel that he must be insured.
A genius scorer like him, even if he gives football rights, it usually takes one or two years to find a killer move.
Kobe was slightly calm in the first round.
In the past, he was eager to make some noise when playing against the 76ers.
Tonight, or since the start of this season, he has not been too impulsive. He will honestly pull outside the three-point line and act as a single-handed striker that is incompetent to everyone.
With Parker here, the Lakers' singles fight sometimes won't find him.
This is indeed a brand new era.
The times are so new that even people like Kobe are sometimes not the first choice for the Lakers to fight alone.
"What are you waiting for?"
Kobe is no longer impulsive, but there is nothing he has changed.
He still likes to defend Wei Xia, even if doing so will put the Lakers at a disadvantage.
"I'll be able to defend you when you attack. Listen, I'll give you a big hat that has appeared in your nightmare!"
Unfortunately, Wei Xia no longer knows what it feels like to have a nightmare.
To be precise, he hasn't dreamed for a long time.
Every night, as long as he falls asleep, his consciousness comes to another time and space. What does it feel to dream? If the experience of the old time is regarded as a dream, then Wei Xia will never regard it as a nightmare, because he is often moved when he wakes up.
Kobe threatened to have a big hat on Wei Xia, and Wei Xia gave him a chance.
Receive the ball on the weak side, pull it out without fake action, and hit the iron.
Since Parker has changed to the fourth position, Wei Xia did not follow him to play the fourth position. Looking at the Lakers' outsiders, Russell and Clarkson are both young and promising juniors. Wei Xia thought about it again and again and decided to fight Kobe.
Kobe dribbled the ball through halftime, and Wei Xia's defense was indecisive.
"If it were you in the past, you probably wouldn't consider passing now, right?" Wei Xia asked softly.
Bogut came to the high position and Kobe scored.
This is a common offensive start in the 41 system. Wei Xia knew that the Lakers would still play Kobe, but she didn't expect Kobe to attack from the outside by catching a counterattack.
Wei Xia was right behind Kobe, following closely. Kobe received the ball, held the center of gravity, and smoothly rose and fell one-on-one jump shot.
Unfortunately, Kobe hasn't mastered this move yet.
The three-pointer hit the basket's neck.
Curry and the Warriors led the three-point craze, and the 76ers made the entire league start playing in the 41-ball lineup. Even Kobe failed to reverse the trend.
Just like when he was a child, he used the magician as an idol, so he hit the No. 1 position from No. 1 to No. 5 in Raulmerion, and then used Jordan as a target and stole all the movements of the Flying Man.
He has been imitating and following the best path.
Three-pointers were exchanged for a counterattack from 76ers.
While Wei Xia was running, Rondo's ball had already passed.
Kobe used all his strength to defend, and Wei Xia suddenly stopped, throwing Kobe's center of gravity several meters away, jumped on the spot, and fell in two points.
2 to 2
Wei Xia may be the oldest player in the current style of play.
His breakthroughs and three-pointers account for 48% of the shooting, and his mid-range and long-range mid-range mid-range mid-range mid-range mid-range stars like him have begun to learn to optimize their shooting distribution, and Wei Xia is still happy to shoot seemingly inefficient long-range mid-range mid-range like Kobe and others ten years ago.
Three-pointers and breakthroughs will marginalize the effect of mid-range. The once essential skills that the scoring kings had when traveling at home are now an option that cannot be easily used. Centre-shots are still dragon-slaying techniques, and both sides' tactics are killed. When breakthroughs are incompetent and three-pointers are inaccurate, teams that can make a shot into Centre-shots will win the game.
Most ordinary games can't last that time.
Wei Xia's insistence on this style of play was a dual influence of old times and Kobe.
He has always been an old-fashioned player. Even if the importance of three-pointers is increasing, even if he has the most stable three-point shooting in the league, he will still control the proportion of three-pointers to 1/3.
Parker is the core, Russell is a ball-holder. He is clearly regarded as the second-tier pick by Buss Jr., but he doesn't have much ball rights.
Parker covers Kobe, and Kobe receives the ball.
Wei Xia was affected by screening and replaced with Farid, and he defended in front of Parker.
Kobe played with Reed with the ball. He lost his explosive power and speed, and he relied on rhythm to attack the basket. Farid's energy did not play much role in front of Kobe.
Kobe brought the ball into the middle of the paint area and suddenly hit the earth and gave Parker.
This is something Wei Xia didn't expect.
According to Kobe's nature, he should shoot at that position no matter what. Just as Parker dunked his hands, Wei Xia thought, maybe Kobe no longer has the explosive power to pull up in front of Farid but not blocked?
Just observe carefully and you can find this obvious problem.
But Wei Xia, like everyone else, was unwilling to accept that Kobe is now on the twilight day when the rivers are getting worse.
The opening game between the 76ers and the Lakers was like a friendly match, with an average intensity.
Wei Xia hasn't fired much, and the Lakers' offense has changed a lot from before.
Kobe has never been so marginalized on the offensive end.
But now, he will stand at the bottom corner and Parker will make the ball for Thibodeau. They bullied Cousins with weak defensive awareness and various passes to hit the back;
Wei Xia also passed the ball to Cousins in the low post, making him try every means to play back;
Kobe, who has always been the finisher of positional wars, transformed himself into the Lakers' opportunity creator. He dribbled into the three-point line many times, and did not rush to pass the ball when he saw the opportunity, and took the initiative to move outward. Clarkson seized the opportunity created by the leader and directly made a shot;
Kobe sent good balls continuously, and he felt that he should reward himself, so he came a long-distance two-point draw that he liked very much when he was young.
Wei Xia defended with all her strength, and blocked Kobe with his fingertips.
Single-action shooting has always been known for its quick shooting, because it is straight up and down, without a second move in the middle. As long as the ball is raised, the defender will basically have only interference.
Kobe's shooting was blocked by Wei Xia, which shows that his offensive intention has always been seen by Wei Xia, and his explosive power is indeed not as good as before.
Kobe smiled when he was covered in the shooting: "It seems that I am not old yet if I can keep you so prepared."
If it were normal, Wei Xia would hit him a few words. Now, he said insincerely: "Yes, you look like an 8-year-old child, naively thinking that you will win as long as you throw the ball out."
Facing Kobe, Wei Xia's passive sarcastic attributes will always be activated.
Kobe has already seen it out. He threatened to block Wei Xia before, but now he is blocked, but he can see it out.
The 76ers' counterattack brought the score difference to 6 points. The Lakers' young coach, Luke Walton, who was once called "the smartest Lakers" by Phil Jackson, promoted something called "equality" to other Lakers players other than Kobe.
Everyone’s opportunities are equal. Don’t fight or rob, and be selfless and united.
This set of tactics is good in everything, but it is too ideal and beautiful, and it regards people's hearts too pure.
The only privileged Kobe, who can ignore egalitarianism, is the one who sees the most thoroughly and the only one who pursues egalitarianism.
Watching him let the young man hold the ball, send the young man out of the box, and then swished a three-pointer that changed his posture.
This is really strange. Wei Xia has thought about many possibilities.
Kobe may continue to use complex and gorgeous movements to complete difficult shots, freeze critics' controversy, and still the ruthless black mamba snake.
Who would have thought that he would not want the ball and inexplicably "fall in love with" three-pointers?
If Wei Xia can still feel at ease if he maintains this state, it means he wants to continue fighting. If one day, he suddenly takes a lot of moves and looks like he is throwing apart, it means he knows that he is really old. The era that suits him has passed.
Then, it's time to retire.
