Kobe Bryant fell to the floor in embarrassment because of the amplitude of his leaning back, and fell to the floor heavily and unhindered! This made Kobe Bryant frown, but his eyes were always staring at the basketball, and he didn't want to relax at all.

"Drop!" whistle sounded, and the lights were red.

At this time, everyone in the audience waited with bated breath, and everyone's eyes were focused on the basketball that was still flying in the air.

Finally, finally!

Fans at the Staples Center heard a "whoop".

“mvp！”

“mvp！”

“mvp！”

“mvp！”

The audience was immediately plunged into a sea of joy, and all the Los Angeles fans chanted "MVP!" in an orderly manner. Even though the home team is still behind, the fans of the Los Angeles Lakers are already crazy at this time.

Wade was also stunned in place, he really didn't expect Kobe to be so decisive for this three-point shot! Thinking of this, Wade glanced thoughtfully at Kobe who fell to the ground, and then stretched out his right hand. Kobe raised an eyebrow, let Hou take Wade's hand with a slight smile, and then Wade pulled Kobe up.

"Good job, old fellow!" Wade said with sincere emotion. He can swear to God, this sentence is absolutely sincere! Kobe Bryant's performance just now has won Wade's respect, and he likes to compete with such opponents. At the same time, Wade also understands the gap between himself and the top shooting guards, at least in terms of mentality and tenacity, he feels that he is still far behind.

"Rookie, work hard, I hope that the next time we meet, you will have the qualifications to challenge me. Bryant said with a smile in Wade's ear, and as he spoke, he glanced at Hilario, who was chatting happily with Lamar. He didn't know what was going on in his heart, and maybe he was a little jealous.

Wade noticed that Kobe's hungry wolf-like eyes were staring at Hilario, and he also smiled: "Old guy, don't you envy Lamar for having such a group of wonderful guys around him." Especially when we guys are willing to assist him?"

"Rookie, don't you think you're talking a little too much?" Kobe Bryant immediately restrained his original expression and replaced it with the previous look of not being allowed to enter.

"I think I'm right, you're jealous!"

"And I know you're going to lose to us tonight, we have confidence in that guy, and of course if he can't do it, we'll also stand up and end your lives!"

Back in the locker room, Dampot and Arenas were adjusting the atmosphere in the locker room, and the atmosphere in the locker room was quite relaxed. After all, the Knicks are now leading by 11 points, and if it weren't for O'Neal's furious three-minute drive in the last three minutes of the second quarter and Kobe's magical three-pointer, the Los Angeles Lakers would have lost even more.

At the start of the second half, Phil Jackson's tactics in the first half made some changes. To be honest, Phil also feels very tricky in terms of personnel now, in addition to the five All-Stars who started the lineup, the only two people who can be trusted on the Los Angeles Lakers bench are Fisher and Scola.

But fortunately, in the Lakers, whether it is O'Neal or Karl Malone, they have the ability to take charge of themselves, and of course, the formation of two inner twin towers is also one of the killer features that the Lakers can handle. In fact, the Lakers are not without a chance to turn the tables around.

Phil Jackson's idea was well planned, but it wasn't really like that. O'Neal and Karl Malone are indeed some of the best interior players in the NBA, but the problem is that one of them is lazy and the other is not strong in offensive ability with the ball.

But the problem is that Payton has gone off the court to rest due to physical problems, and now it is Kobe Bryant who controls the ball on the court.

So Fei'er wants to focus on the inside line and give full play to the power of the twin towers, the ideal is very beautiful, but the reality has given him a blow to the head. As soon as the Lakers' twin towers have no one to feed them with ammo, their attack power will be greatly reduced.

By the fifth minute of the third quarter, the Knicks had a 19-point lead. Since the Lakers handed over the ball to Kobe Bryant and Fisher, the originally fluid offense was immediately paralyzed. Kobe Bryant frequently played iron under the full defense of Wade and Battier, and the only thing the Lakers can rely on now is O'Neal's strong play, and perhaps add a second offense after Karl Malone scrambles for rebounds.

Obviously, by this time, the Lakers' last chance to turn the tables will be snuffed out, because Van Gundy has set his sights on O'Neal's shark-cutting tactics about to be executed.

By the seventh minute of the third quarter, the Los Angeles Lakers had trailed the Knicks by 23 points. After losing so badly at home, the Los Angeles Lakers were the first time in recent seasons that the Lakers fans at the scene also felt a little dissatisfied.

So when the Knicks players got the ball, the fans no longer booed, but the players on their side enjoyed a lot of such treatment.

Big shark O'Neal was also very depressed, when the team decided to choose between Lamar and Kobe, he chose Kobe Bryant with a clear conscience. After all, Lamar plays the position of power forward, which has more or less an impact on him, so Shaq thinks that Kobe Bryant, who is still on the outside, is his best helper.

In fact, Kobe's ambition to replace Shaq had already begun to be revealed, but Shaq has always been very confident, feeling that as long as he is in the Lakers for a day, no one can replace his position in the Lakers, after all, Shaq was still the most dominant center in the league at that time, and there was no one.

But now it seems that Shaq's wishful thinking was wrong! He ignored one problem, and that was the rate at which one's ambition grew. When Kobe Bryant squeezed out Lamar, who had a hatred for his wife, the ambition hidden in his heart swelled up like a balloon. The black mamba is the black mamba, and when Kobe Bryant noticed that Shaq was getting more and more lazy and declining, his poisonous fangs showed up.

Looking back on his career, O'Neal shocked the world basketball world when he was just starting out with the Orlando Magic. Then in Los Angeles, Lakers O'Neal reached the peak of his career, and it can be said that it was because of the addition of Shaq that the Lakers suddenly changed from a playoff team to a veritable championship contender.

It's a pity that in the end, Shaq O'Neal still failed to break free from the cage of fate, and as Kobe Bryant gradually grew, he, the former protector and big brother, also lost his due deterrent. The incompatible and intensifying contradiction between him and Kobe Bryant is the best proof of this.

The thought of this O'Neill's heart is full of anger, even if it is against his opponent, it is anger towards himself. He still doesn't want to admit defeat, in the philosophy of the big shark's life, there has never been such a concept of admitting defeat, he can still fight! Even if he can't escape the fate of defeat in the end, he wants people to know that the majesty of the big shark cannot be provoked.

After Gary Payton returned to the court, Phil Jackson consciously shifted the core of the offense to O'Neal again. Although the first three quarters of the game consumed a lot of physical strength for O'Neal, the big guy was still able to support it. With the end of the unyielding, the big guy desperately squeezed under the basket, and the inside muscle people who carried the Knicks dunked one after another.

Gary Payton made another ground-hitting pass, and the ball was accurately handed into O'Neal's hands. O'Neal slapped the ball on the ground after receiving it, and raised his hand to dunk directly.

At this point, the defense O'Neal was once again Damppoter, and as for Hilario, the Brazilian was already a little overwhelmed by a big shark who started to go on a rampage, sitting on the bench with five fouls early in the fourth quarter.

Dampot was also uncomfortable at this time, although he had been careful to guard against the attack of the big shark, he was still hit by O'Neal's big butt.

Lamar, who had been watching O'Neal's every move from a short distance, saw this, and rushed over in a few steps to help defend the bag. Lamar raised his arm and pressed down on O'Neal's basketball, while his elbow was pressed against O'Neal's shoulder socket to prevent him from jumping.

Before O'Neal could jump, he was slapped on the basketball by Lamar. In order to avoid unnecessary mistakes, O'Neill had to retract his body again, and he was caught by Lamar, who was hiding on the sidelines, which made the big shark feel very breathless.

The reason why I say yes is because just in the third quarter, Shaq had already had such an experience. He was in a similar situation at the time, except that it was the Brazilian Hilario who was defending in front of him. Shaq also struggled to squeeze away from the opponent, and was about to dunk when Lamar slapped the basketball from the shadows.

This experience was like a nightmare, and it hung over O'Neill's heart all the time, and he couldn't let go of it for a long time.

Now he was attacked by Lamar in a similar way again, although he was not stealed by Lamar, but the anger in O'Neal's heart can be imagined. At this time, Shaq almost had no room to attack under the combined control of Lamar and Dampot, but if he passed the ball, the big shark would not be able to save face. In desperation, O'Neal could only choose to play again, raising his hand to raise the ball and want to dunk.

But O'Neill still couldn't jump up before Lamar's big slap hit him again. This was repeated three times, and the referee's whistle finally sounded for three seconds! The referee's hand pointed straight at O'Neal.
