NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 1045

Chapter 1045

This time the Lakers stayed in the backcourt except for Duncan.

Kobe still enjoys double protection, and the others are chased close to him.

Garnett served the ball, and it was difficult to find a receiver. At this moment, he felt the strength of the Suns' defense.

"Now is the time to show the Suns' individual defensive ability and team's strong defensive system!" Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

Three seconds, four seconds, still can't find it, Garnett is in a hurry.

At this time, Artest suddenly ran back, shook off Li Ba, and extended his hand to Garnett.

Garnett didn't hesitate, the whistle was about to sound, and he quickly smashed his hands and passed it.

But at this moment, Li Ba, who was thrown off by Artest, suddenly took a step forward, stretched his right hand, cut into the passing line in an instant, and broke the ball.

This was originally a chance he gave Artest and Garnett. You caught it, and I was sure to break your ball. If you didn't catch it, it was a five-second violation and the ball was exchanged.

Amid the cheers of the audience, Li Ba passed the ball to Tony Allen, who rushed to the basket, and the latter made a layup.

Continuous mistakes, the Lakers have called a timeout in advance.

Back from the timeout, the Suns' full-court press continued.

Artest served this time, and Garnett took advantage of his height to catch the ball.

Li Ba defended Garnett and moved forward with a faster and more flexible pace, still keeping Garnett out of the position to catch the ball.

At this time, he noticed that Kobe was deliberately running over, and immediately raised his vigilance. This must be to use the pick-and-roll opportunity with Garnett to run out of the open space.

Sure enough, Garnett stood in front of Tony Allen, and Kobe took the opportunity to break the double-team.

Ginobili was also half a step behind, with five seconds running out, Kobe reached out to Artest.

Artest's ball came over, and Kobe was about to catch the ball, when a big hand appeared from behind and cut in instantly.

"Damn!"

The ball was broken again, and Kobe jumped up angrily.

"Three times, the Hammer steals three times in a row, amazing!" Yu Jia roared excitedly.

"brush!"

Li Ba assisted Ginobili for a layup.

3:8, the Suns lead.

"In the opening game, he made 2 of 1 shots and scored 2 points and 3 steals. The Hammer's steals are going to explode!" Zhang Reasonable shouted excitedly.

"This is a championship-level defense. Let's see how long the Suns can last with this level of defense?" Barkley said excitedly.

"There are Gasol Jr. and Diaw on the bench. They are not very old, and Hill is also available on the outside. With the operation of the defensive system, the Suns have enough manpower." Kenny Smith laughed.

"Defend! Defend..."

Li Ba was roaring wantonly, driving the audience to shout, and the momentum of the home court was rising steadily.

"Look at him, forbid him to take the ball!" Li Ba shouted, pointing at Kobe.

But Kobe really rushed out of the double-team this time and received the ball at the center line of the right wing.

At this time, Artest was still one step ahead of the center line and not in the attacking area. Li Ba threw him directly and rushed towards Kobe who was two steps away.

This double-team, he was always above the passing line, and the distance was very short, Kobe had no chance to pass the ball to Artest.

Kobe received the ball and rushed to the frontcourt. Li Ba rushed from the left side. The former forced the ball forward, and the latter blocked the front with his left hand and followed closely to the side.

Half a step behind Kobe's right is Tony Allen. As long as Tony keeps up with this half step, Kobe will have no room to dribble. There is Manu Ginobili behind him, blocked on three sides, as long as he stops, he will be blocked by three people capture.

Kobe's eyes were extremely cold, and he seemed to be braving the coldness. He rushed two steps in a row, and suddenly stopped on the three-point line for a jumper.

At this moment, Tony Allen rushed past Kobe in one step, and Li Ba, he was mentally prepared, because he concluded that Kobe was going to shoot a three-pointer.

Why Kobe Bryant will shoot three-pointers?Because Kobe had no chance to move forward at all, Tony Allen had followed up and was about to steal his ball, he had to make a shot.

And Li Ba is very clear about Kobe's shooting habits. He gets up when the ball is at the knee position, jumps when the ball is at the chest position, and shoots when the ball is at the top of the head.

And the best opportunity to block the shot is the moment the ball is shot overhead. At that time, Kobe has already jumped in the air and is about to make a shot. The ball is exposed and there is no chance to dodge.

But the best stealing opportunity is at the knee position. At this time, Kobe pulled the ball up with one hand, and he has not yet joined the ball with both hands, so he has very little control over the ball.

Defense also pays attention to details, and these are the details.

At the moment when Kobe pulled the ball up from the floor, caught it on his knees, and was about to stand up with his hands together, Li Ba blocked the air in front of him with his left hand and grabbed it down.

"Snapped!"

Accurately caught the ball, touched the ball with his hand, squeezed his five fingers lightly, and controlled the ball in his hand. Then Li Ba turned left and took the ball away from Kobe. After turning around, he stepped out and moved the ball forward with his left hand With a smash, the push began.

"Steal! It's another steal! The Hammer's defense today is amazing! Amazing!" Yu Jia roared excitedly.

Being intercepted again, Kobe was going crazy, turned around and chased.

But he couldn't catch up any more. Behind him, after turning around, he was in front, and there was Ginobili blocking him.

Li Ba rushed across the center line, Artest in the middle followed, and the two rushed into the top of the arc together.

Artest deliberately bumped into Li Ba, trying to squeeze him away.

When the two collided, they separated.

Li Ba took a step wide, the ball was still under control, and the speed decreased slightly, but recovered immediately.

But Artest, who took the initiative to hit someone, took a step and a half away, and couldn't pick up his speed immediately, and fell behind. The victory and defeat came out immediately, and Li Ba's impact was even stronger.

Li Ba stepped into the paint area and flew up.

At this moment, Artest's heart moved behind him. He really wanted to pull Li Ba down in the air. If Li Ba was injured, it would be a one-for-one exchange. The Lakers would definitely win. Even if Li Ba was seriously injured, that would be even better.

But he really didn't dare, he was afraid that Li Ba would get up in a rage and punch him in the head if he wasn't injured.

"boom!"

In the next moment, Li Ba smashed the basket with both arms, sinking the Lakers' basket.

3:10, the Suns lead.

The Lakers attack.

Artest picked up the ball and was about to make a quick serve to prevent the Suns from playing a backcourt press, but Li Ba was standing in front of him.

"Bottom line serve to press!" Barkley shouted excitedly.

"Hammer doesn't want the Lakers to die!" Kenny Smith smiled helplessly.

At this time, Li Ba "saw" that someone ran back and ran out of a position to press the ball, but the passing line between Artest and that position was blocked by his right hand, and he immediately gave way to his right hand.

The next moment, his right hand grabbed it instantly.

With a snap, Artest's ball was caught by Li Ba just as soon as he made a shot.

This is the combined effect of top-level neural response speed, excellent wingspan, god-level accurate capture ability, super-giant-level big hands and other abilities, all of which are indispensable.
