Lin Rui's breakthrough was blocked, and he did not force himself to rush. If he continued to rush, it would be easy to defeat Kobe, but he would get an offensive foul.

Lin Rui quickly dribbled the ball back and pulled it back.

Seeing that Lin Rui did not continue to fight for him, Kobe's pressure also dropped sharply.

The physical confrontation given by Lin Rui is very powerful.

Lin Rui did not try to break through, but faced Kobe's continuous dribbling.

After simply staggering the rhythm of the two people, Lin Rui dribbled the ball and moved it horizontally, forcibly using the short space outside the three-point line to take action quickly.

Lin Rui's ball was adjusted very quickly, and he did not wait for Kobe to be fully prepared for defense.

The ball was unreasonable, but Kobe's reaction was slower. By the time he jumped up and blocked the ball, the basketball was already flying in the air.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc.

"Swish!"

5 to 2.

After scoring the goal, Lin Rui nodded at Kobe and provoked: "You can't defend me."

Kobe said to Lin Rui: "You will lose the game tonight."

Kobe didn't care about Lin Rui's provocation.

The fans of Staples Arena saw Lin Rui's strong attacking ability and each of them was gasping for a breath.

Zhang Weiping said: "Lin Rui's condition is obviously better than in the last game. It is very difficult for him to take action on the outside this time. He has not completely gotten rid of Kobe's defense."

Xu Jicheng said: "Yes, Kobe's defense is done well, but he failed to stop Lin Rui's scoring. Lin Rui's shot was very unreasonable."

There on the other side of espn.

McBrien also said: "If the Knicks want to defeat the Lakers, Lin Rui needs to score more than 60 points again, otherwise they will have no hope."

Van Gundy said: "Lin Rui is the most offensive rookie in NBA history. No one can ravage the defense lines of NBA teams like him in the first year, even Michael Jordan can't do it."

McBrien said: "But for Lin Rui, how many points he scored is not his pursuit. What he is pursuing now is how to help the team win the game."

On the field.

As Mike Bryn said.

Lin Rui needs to think about how to help the team win.

Kobe beat Crawford on the right side. After continuous shaking, he also chose to jump the three-point shot.

Crawford did not put enough pressure on Kobe.

Kobe's jump shot is easy.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc.

5 to 5.

Kobe responds with the kind of offense Lin Rui uses.

Kobe also provoked Lin Rui after scoring the goal: "Your defense is too bad."

Lin Rui has strong shooting ability, but Kobe also has it.

Knicks' offense.

Crawford brought the ball to the frontcourt.

Crawford then gave the ball to Lin Rui.

The ball was successfully given to Lin Rui, giving Lin Rui a one-on-one chance, and the Knicks' tactics were half successful.

Kobe defends Lin Rui.

This time Lin Rui did not attack Kobe.

After all, Kobe's perimeter defense is the Lakers' strength, and it is not suitable to play around him all the time. This is not a good choice.

David Li Ti came forward to cover Lin Rui.

Lin Rui used the cover to move sideways and then passed Kobe and made a breakthrough with the trend!

After breaking through, Gasol was replaced by Lin Rui.

During the highway, Lin Rui did not slow down and changed direction to the left. Gasol wanted to move horizontally to block Lin Rui.

But his movements were too slow, Gasol gave Lin Rui a physical confrontation, but he couldn't change Lin Rui's breakthrough rhythm.

Lin Rui has passed through his defensive area.

Lin Rui took the opportunity to collect the ball and flew into the air. A step forward in the three-second zone, Lin Rui raised the ball high and smashed it hard towards the basket!!!

"box!!"

7 to 5.

"pretty!!"

"nice shot!!"

"Lin Rui is domineering!!!"

"Lin Rui just wants to mess with him so resolutely!"

"do not mention it!!"

"Gasol's assisted defense is very powerful, but it's still a little worse."

Zhang Weiping and Xu Jicheng kept shouting.

The Lin Rui fans at the scene were also screaming loudly.

It seems that Lin Rui is about to break out again in this game.

Lakers' offense.

Fisher continued to give the ball to Kobe.

Fisher's biggest task on the court is to take the ball through half, and the offensive organization basically does not need him.

Kobe and Gasol's pick-and-roll attack.

Crawford and Randolph had gaps in defense.

Kobe hangs the ball high to Gasol who is down.

Gasol grabbed the ball with one hand and raised it high, gave Crawford, who had switched defense, a fight, and then smashed the ball into the basket!!

"box!!"

7 to 7.

Crawford had no way of such a misalignment.

The Knicks' inside line has been hit.

Randolph has a certain ability to protect the frame, but when he was pulled out, the Knicks' inside line was basically in a state of unpreparedness.

McBrien said: "Bryant and Gasol have cooperated, which is the tacit tactic that the two often appear this season."

Van Gundy said: "Gasol's arrival has allowed Kobe to no longer play like Lin Rui. He can quickly form chemical reactions with Gasol. This is different from Lin Rui and Randolph's combination. Lin Rui and Randolph often do not cooperate so well. The two are mostly singles, which is related to their characteristics. Randolph and Lin Rui are both good at fighting opponents one-on-one."

The Knicks' offense came quickly.

Lin Rui received a serve at the baseline. When everyone thought he was going to dribble, Lin Rui smashed the ball into Crawford's hand in the frontcourt. Crawford sneaked over and inserted a hole in the Lakers' defense.

Lin Rui's pass penetrated the Lakers' defense line, very accurate!!

After Crawford got the ball, he took a step and made a layup.

9 to 7

One of the Lakers was stolen by the Knicks.

Fans at Staples Stadium never thought that the Knicks' offensive would come so quickly.

The Knicks' counterattack was launched almost immediately after the Lakers scored.

Such an offense also quickly suppressed the offensive that home fans were about to take off.

Lakers attack.

Fisher continued to dribble.

Replace Kobe, Lin Rui and Crawford with defense and continue to keep a guard against Kobe.

Kobe originally wanted a pick-and-roll, but after seeing Lin Rui defending alone, he immediately signaled Gasol to leave.

Kobe wanted to continue eating one in front of Lin Rui.

Kobe dribbles continuously and tried to get rid of Lin Rui, but Kobe's dribbles were not as smooth as Iverson. Lin Rui's entangled defense kept following Kobe. No matter how Kobe changed direction, he just couldn't pass Lin Rui.

Bryn said: "Lin Rui's defense is textbook-level, without any extra moves, just oppressing the ball holder, which makes Kobe very uncomfortable."

Although Kobe doesn't want Gasol to pick-and-roll, Gasol sees Kobe's dilemma and still makes it very decisively.
