Chapter 70 Show Yourself

No matter what kind of game you are on, the defense will always be the passive side, so as long as the offensive side has the courage, high psychological quality, strong self-confidence, and dares to rush, the advantage he has won will never disappear. .

"This rookie wants to single-handedly beat Kobe?"

Seeing that the players on the field gradually opened up the space, leaving behind Yang Ke and Kobe who were staring at each other from a distance, a trace of surprise flashed in Barkley's eyes, and the voice with a few higher pitches was uploaded from the microphone without reservation. out.

"When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, but the result of a fight is not certain."

O'Neill nodded approvingly. As a player who wants to play in the NBA, he must never give up on the court at any time. Even if you give up a little, you will gradually be eliminated by the league.

"call!"

Looking up at the time card, Yang Ke let out a breath, and the basketball in his hand slapped quickly, then he put his head down again, staring at Kobe intently.In the next second, his feet moved quickly, and he rushed towards Kobe like an arrow from a bow.

Soon the two came into close contact. Facing Kobe who was close to him, Yang Ke, who dribbled the ball with his left hand, leaned his upper body forward as much as possible to protect the ball, buried his head deeply, and his lower body was poking out his buttocks while his right foot had already stepped to the left. .

Kobe immediately thought that Yang Ke was going to break through to the left, and then his whole body approached to the left. At this time, when Yang Ke’s right foot landed, according to the conventional direction-changing breakthrough, he should step to the left with his left heel, and then his left foot would go forward. Force take off...

But in fact, Yang Ke, who was moving at a high speed, did not do this. He stepped to the right with his right foot. A trace of surprise flashed in Kobe's eyes as he watched this series of actions. He realized something, but Kobe's body was already on the left side. , obviously too late to follow up the defense, the only way now is to steal the ball.

But did Yang Ke give him a chance? While stepping out with his right foot, the ball in his hand has been transferred from his left hand to his right hand through the back, and then the whole person has quickly accelerated to the right and passed Kobe.

Taking advantage of his extremely fast speed, Yang Ke quickly got to the free throw line before the Lakers' defense team on the right came over, and made an easy layup.

"Beautiful breakthrough, the rookie of the Spurs did a good job!"

Smith in front of the commentary clapped his hands happily and shouted excitedly.

"Why do I feel that the footsteps of this breakthrough are so familiar?"

Barkley groped his chin, slowly replaying Yang Ke's breakthrough just now in his mind, and said very puzzled.

"The posture is good, and there are many serpentine breakthroughs. He is very skilled. It seems that Manu Ginobili in the team taught him."

O'Neill nodded and answered Barkley's doubts.

Standing where he was, Kobe picked up his clothes and wiped the sweat off his forehead. Having confronted Manu countless times, he certainly knew that Yang Ke used Manu's snake-shaped breakthrough. He once said that the alliance he could think of The person who breaks through the line better than Wade is Manu Ginobili.

It seems that the rookie's snake-shaped breakthrough just now is better than Manu's?

With a chuckle, Kobe shook his head, shook off the illogical distractions from his mind, and then ran to the frontcourt unhurriedly.

"When did you teach him this trick?"

In the audience behind the Spurs bench, Parker turned to Ginobili and asked curiously.

"I didn't teach it, it should be one-on-one with him, and he learned it by himself."

Ginobili's face was very strange. Since Popovich handed Yang Ke over to him to practice defense, he really never thought about teaching Yang Ke to attack.But if this is the case, then Yang Ke's self-learning ability is really terrifying, and he even learned the opponent's skills through confrontation.

Duncan turned his head, looked at Ginobili with a smile, and raised his eyebrows: "In comparison, I am more curious, why the snake-shaped breakthrough that Yang Ke used is much better than yours. The achievements in the world have surpassed you?"

"His snake-shaped breakthrough still needs to be practiced. As for why it looks good, because Yang's speed is very fast, much faster than mine."

Ginobili shook his head. Facing Duncan's ridicule, his face remained normal. In the snake-shaped breakthrough just now, he clearly saw a few flaws, but they were perfectly covered up because of his extremely fast speed. The speed, as the saying goes, one good cover one hundred ugly.

As the game continued, Leonard, through his hard work and tenacity, successfully showed the fans what is called the best defense: I may not be as tall as you, I may not be as strong as you, and I may not be as strong as you Quick, but I just want to lower your shooting percentage; I don't necessarily have rebounds, steals, or blocks, but I can stick to you and let your physical strength be consumed quickly.

With Leonard's efforts, although Kobe still made many successful shots, his offensive efficiency was extremely low, which led to the Lakers' low score.

And on the offensive end, since the last time Kobe was successful in singles, Yang Ke was very calm and didn't go ahead. He was very aware of the gap between himself and Kobe, so he still followed the tactical arrangement.

Ford dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and then Yang Ke caught the ball under the cover of Split. In this way, Yang Ke turned into a point guard. He started to organize the offense, execute the offense, and decided to be himself. Hit, how to hit or distribute to so-and-so.

Of course, he played very few times by himself. Yang Ke made full use of his advantages in speed and reflexes to constantly pull the Lakers' formation and create opportunities for his teammates.

Leonard chiseled inside, and Yang Ke and Ford also acted as mobile forts on the outside. Splitter took advantage of his youth and took Gasol to run around, just to keep him away from the inside to keep enough Space.And Blair, a blue-collar player at the basket, fought hand-to-hand with Bynum diligently, trying his best to get stuck in a favorable position for rebounding.

With the efforts of all the Spurs holding their breath, when the first quarter ended, the Spurs led the Lakers by 26 points with a score of 14:12. This unexpected score caused shock and excitement from countless media. puzzled.

Among them, Yang Ke scored 9 points and 4 assists, and Leonard scored 4 points and 3 rebounds, and because their two opponents are the Lakers.The outstanding and active performances of Yang Ke and Leonard left a deep impression on the fans who watched the game. At the same time, the negative perception of them has gradually changed unconsciously.

This kind of game is what I want!
Kobe, who was retreating to the bench, looked back at the Spurs, his eyes sparkled, and then he looked back at his teammates. His face darkened completely, and he paused for a moment before walking again. .
