Roy still had no expression. People say he is the Tim Duncan of the guard position, and they're right.
He chose to directly press Kobe. After two bumps, Kobe suddenly took off, relying on his advantage in strength to force a drive, but he didn't get any space. He had to take a forced fadeaway shot from zero angle.
Roy defended very well, very tight. But limited by his short wingspan, he couldn't interfere with Kobe's fadeaway, and the basketball went in. It was a beautiful solo play that even made Warriors fans want to cheer. Kobe narrowed the point gap to 1.
"If the Warriors lose tonight, you'll definitely be the culprit." Kobe continued to taunt Roy.
The game reached another critical moment, but as soon as Roger got the ball, he was double-teamed by Billups and James.
In all honesty, LBJ did contribute something in the second half; at least he didn't zone out on defense.
Roger wanted to run through the gap the moment they closed in on him.
