NBA: I just want to play soy sauce, you let me win the championship

Chapter 158 Max, Are You Ending?

Kobe's thinking can be said to be correct.

He himself had experienced a bad start, and his non-conformity not only ruined the young Lakers team, but also made him blame himself for a long time.

Of course, Kobe was not defeated. He practiced harder than anyone else every summer because he just didn't want to experience that feeling of powerlessness again.

I am mentally tough, so I can get out of trouble, Max, you kid, can you have such a skill?
But it turns out that Kobe was thinking too much.

Most young people may really not be as tough as Kobe, and not as good at regulating their emotions as Kobe, but who told you that if Kobe blows you up, you will fall into infinite self-blame?
Look at Prince, who defended Kobe in the 03-04 season. In the second game of the series, he was blown away by Kobe. Kobe scored a game-high 33 points on him. Is he autistic?
Autistic?

It was Kobe, the number one player in the league, who beat me up, what's the shame!
Work hard and try to limit Kobe in the next game!

You see, Kobe didn't figure it out at all. In his current position, no one would completely collapse because of being blown up by him.

In the third game, Prince only scored 11 points against Kobe.

Kobe's thinking can be said to be ridiculously wrong!

Lu Yuanzhi has this mentality now, Ma De, my rookie season, Kobe tried his best to defend me, and I scored more than ten points in the end!
What can I not be satisfied with?
I haven't added up my points now, so I can get [-]-[-] with Kobe, no, at least [-]-[-], so when I add up my points in the future, it won't be a fortress?
Lu Yuanzhi once again faced Kobe's singles attack. Not only did he not feel it was a torment, but he felt that he shared most of the team's pressure.

Yes, if someone other than Christie can single-handedly defend Kobe, then the Kings' tactics will become very flexible!

This time, Kobe unexpectedly used Horry's cover, and both Webb and Lu Yuanzhi were confused by Kobe's sudden attack.

No, Boss Ke, why did you find someone to cover you again?
Are you old enough to fight alone?
However, after a short period of confusion, Weber still stretched out his hand to delay Kobe's advance, and Lu Yuanzhi also quickly adjusted his focus, chasing Kobe back to the inside.

Currently there are only Divac and O'Neal inside. Divac stuck O'Neal tightly and prevented him from entering the paint.

Moreover, it seems that there is no intention of coming to help defend at all?
Kobe is a little confused about the situation, what does it mean that the inside line does not come to protect the basket?
Do you really believe in Max's defense?
Divac: No, I just believe in O'Neal's offense more.

When Kobe saw that Divac couldn't help defend, he jumped directly in the paint area. Lu Yuanzhi followed closely and jumped too. His two long arms spread out to block Kobe's shooting space.

Kobe Bryant has small hands, but he didn't lose the slightest bit when he played jelly layups, which are more suitable for players with bigger hands.

Seeing Lu Yuanzhi take off to block the shot, Kobe quickly retracted the basketball, put the ball by his side, waited for Lu Yuanzhi to fall with him, and then prepared to shoot.

Kobe took off first, so he was not surprised at all that he fell first.

But when he was about to hit the ground, he realized that Lu Yuanzhi's hand was still near the backboard.

what happened!

This kid is stronger than me in staying in the air?

It doesn't make sense!

However, Kobe still tried his best to control the hitting point, avoiding Lu Yuanzhi's block and throwing the ball.

Of course, Lu Yuanzhi couldn't block Kobe's jelly layup. Just kidding, how could this kind of technology specially developed to avoid blocking be blocked so easily!

However, in order to avoid Lu Yuanzhi's block, Kobe's landing point was slightly off. After hitting the rebound, it landed on the outside of the basket, and Divac got the rebound steadily.

Lu Yuanzhi landed soon after Kobe landed.

He took off very fully this time and stayed in the air for a long time, but it was almost the same as Kobe's.

It's just that Kobe took off first, and he took off later, so he would naturally stay in the air for a while.

Lu Yuanzhi's standing height is more than 2 meters. As long as Lu Yuanzhi is still in the air, from the perspective of Kobe, who is missing, those long arms are still "hanging" on the backboard.After the two landed, they didn't bother much at all and rushed towards the Lakers half court.

It's been more than half a game, who still doesn't know what the Kings are planning?

O'Neal interfered with Divac's first pass, but the effect was not great. The ball still came to Turkoglu's hands steadily, and after Divac passed the ball, he took old steps and tried his best rushed to the front field.

Divac was once one of the fastest moving centers in the league, but now he's older, less agile and not too slow.

O'Neill claimed to be a terrifying existence with both strength and speed. Although he was a little tired, he returned to defense immediately.

"Except for this series, you'd be hard-pressed to find so many big men who play fast breaks and retreat fast!"

In the TNT commentary seat, Barkley watched O'Neal being forced to sprint back and forth, with a cheerful tone.

Indeed, although the Kings and Mavericks also played very fast in the last series, the Mavericks did not have such a fast-moving inside line.

Other teams, on the other hand, cannot provide as many big men as the Kings.

The four big men can all play fast breaks quickly, and 2 of them can also control the ball and advance!

The Lakers returned to defense very quickly this time. Bibby glanced at the timing card. The third quarter has passed 9 minutes and 40 seconds. At this time point, maybe the next time the Lakers have the ball, the Lakers will replace Kobe?

Probably!

Kobe didn't take a break in the first half. If he doesn't take a break at this time, there will be no time for him to rest!
In this case, take this opportunity and ask Max to give him another shot?
After all, before Lu Yuanzhi couldn't consume enough possessions, he was defeated in the match against Kobe, but what if he was given another shot before Kobe left the court?

Will there be unexpected good results?

Bibi thinks this is reliable!

This time, Divac went on a fast break and came to a stop after running beyond the three-point line, and O'Neal slowed down around the free throw line.

Slow down?

Bibby's eyes lit up, O'Neill slowed down at this moment, and wanted to restart, but it was not easy!

When the opportunity comes, it depends on whether Lu Yuanzhi can seize it!

Of course!
Such a good opportunity for O'Neal not to be inside is unique!
Kobe put his hand on Lu Yuanzhi's arm, thinking that Lu Yuanzhi was under his control, so he turned his head to see if Bibby, who was in possession of the ball, made any further moves.

Suddenly, Lu Yuanzhi moved behind him, and Bibby threw the ball to the basket.

Still want to dunk over my head, Kobe?Don't think about it!
Kobe didn't even need to look to know that Lu Yuanzhi behind him was also running towards the hoop, started it quickly, and then jumped high in the penalty area, trying to intercept the ball.

But the ball flew higher and higher, over his fingertips, and flew behind him.

so tall?
Mistake?
No!

Lu Yuanzhi tried his best to stretch out his arms, exert strength with his big hands, and firmly grasp the basketball. When the inertia of the basketball's flight disappeared, he dunked it down heavily!

"Max! He dunked twice on Kobe Bryant again!" Barkley shouted excitedly on the TNT commentary stage.

Kobe: Max, you can't stop!
