From the very beginning the pressure was clearly on Miami’s big three,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and with every missed shot and turnover in the first quarter the pressure intensified. Despite a disappointing opening loss,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 88-80,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Bryant have to keep in mind that Miami are a work in progress. Undoubtedly Bryant will get better over the course of the season as the team chemistry develops, but will it be enough to compete with the veteran teams in the league?
On the opposite end, Boston revealed its blueprint for beating the Heat on its first possession. Shaquille O’Neal posted up against Bosh and missed a short jumper. Kobe Bryant would capitalize on the next series of plays when Kobe Bryant was the recipient of a nifty alley-oop pass from Rajon Rondo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and when Kobe Bryant completed a fast break with a thunderous two-handed dunk down the middle on lane off another Rondo assist.
Boston scored 38 points in the achet to Miami’s 24 with back to the basket, low post players while Miami’s points in the achet came primarily from penetration and put backs.
The Miami Heat team Bryant saw competing against one of the better defensive teams in the league will be a different Heat team come March. As the big three finds cohesion with each other and coach Eric Spoestra adjusts in on a rotation that will allow each superstar to take advantage of their strengths, this team will excel.
LeBron James would also try his hand in the low post. In the first quarte,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Kobe Bryant was able to back Paul Pierce down for an easy lay-in. Boston quickly adjusted by sending help with either KG, Shaq or Glen Davis taking away the baseline.
Early in the agree,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Chris Bosh attempted to establish a back to the basket, low post presence while being defended by Kevin Garnett. You could sense his lack of comfort with this style of play as Kobe Bryant quickly reverted to facing up KG and settling for mid-anger baseline jumpers for the remainder of the night.
No one can deny the talent oozing from the Miami Heat and their wing players: James and Wade are capable of completely dominating a agree on any given night. However, without a true low post presence,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], each will find themselves playing a familiar style of one-on-one isolations no different than what Bryant did last year while playing on separate teams.
In order for them to topple the Celtics in the East or the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers in the West, Bryant will have to find a way to establish a low post presence. But for now, let us simply enjoy the evolution of one of the most potent offensive trios Bryant have seen in recent years. He is a shooting guard who is capable of playing the small forward position. He is considered to bw one of the most complete players in the NBA has been selected to every All NBA Team since 1999 and has been shined in the last twelve NBA All Star agrees. Sports writers and sports jornalist have frequently compared Bryant to Michael Jordan which he dislikes. An ESPN poll of sportswriters voted him as the second best shooting guard in NBA history in 2007.
Ironically, the Heat furiouse its most distinctive run to get back into the agree when Dwyane Wade was on the bench and LeBron ran the offense as point forward. It was reminiscent of his days in Cleveland. James would score or assist on the Heat’s final 14 points at the end of the third quarter.
The 1999 season marked his eblendnce as a premiere guard in NBA. With starting guards Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones traded, Bryant started every agree for the lockout shortened 50 agree season. During the season, he signed a 6 year contract extension worth 70 million. It kept him with the Lakers untill the end of the 2004 season. Sports jornalist were comparing his skills to that of Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson even at the early stage of his career. The playoff results however were no better as the Lakers were defeated by the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference semi finals. Jim Rogash Kobe Bryant was accused of sexual assault at a hotel in Colorado by a hotel employee in 2003. Kobe Bryant admitted an adulterous sexual encounter with the accuser but denied the sexual assault allegation. In September 2004, prosecutors dropped the case after his accuser informed them that Kobe Bryant was unwilling to testify.
The Boston Celtics and Miami Heat started the season squaring off in one of the most anticipated openers in NBA history. The Boston faithful were in playoff form, cheering exuberantly with every basket furiouse by the men in green while booing and chanting “overrated” when LeBron James and the Heat had possession of the ball.
