Chapter 439: The duel between the old and the new guards
Jordan lived in a time when the NBA was full of good players. At that time, it was not only Jordan, Malone, Pippen, Stockton and others who were active in the league, but also Olajuwon, Barkley, Drexler, Reggie Miller and other superstars, no matter which one was a hero at the time. If you add another Lamar, NAB will naturally become even more exciting.
Jordan said with a little regret: "It's a pity that I couldn't really compete with this guy on the court when I was at my peak!"
"But it's not too late now, my old bone won't lose to him! Besides, the little snake on the other side will definitely not just give up, and I think the nature of this game is going to change. β
Kidd said a little boredly, "Hey, it looks like I'm going to do my old job again tonight." β
"What? Jason, do you want to compare too? It's not that I look down on you, just your level of offenseγγγγγγ In a good mood, Jordan couldn't help but make a joke about Kidd.
"What are you kidding?!" Kidd said indifferently, "I'm not crazy yet, but I don't want to be ugly!"
Jordan was speechless for a while, and said forcefully: "Hehe, do you think someone will say that I am bullying young people at that time?"
"You're still the same!"
"Haha!"
Jordan and Kidd's chit-chat didn't continue, because the form on the court had changed dramatically by this time. As Jordan said, Kobe, who was overshadowed by Lamar, certainly won't give up, and revenge is not long in coming.
If Lamar was the protagonist on the stage just now, now it's Kobe's turn.
The black mamba, which had been suppressed in Los Angeles for a long time, finally began to light up his sharp fangs, and the venom that had been stored up for a long time was already waiting for the next victim to die on him.
"You've pissed me off, vile bastard! Die now!" Kobe Bryant's face was cold, and his tone was colder than his face.
Lamar also had a serious expression, pointed to Jordan behind him and replied lightly: "Your opponent is not me, it's him!
"Bastard!" even though Bryant was already enraged by Lamar, he still had to face the opponent in front of him.
"Michael, you're old! you shouldn't be making a comeback!"
As soon as the words fell, Kobe Bryant was running as fast as a machine that was suddenly started, the basketball shuttled back and forth under his crotch, dazzling the people who watched, and his shoulders were shaking incessantly, making it impossible to judge what he wanted to do next.
Jordan couldn't help but take a small step back, ready to block Kobe's breakthrough at any time. His idea was good, but making such a decision at this time undoubtedly gave Kobe Bryant a lot of room to play.
Sure enough, Kobe Bryant's body that was shaking violently just now stopped as if it had lost energy at the same time as Jordan stepped back, and before Jordan realized that something was wrong, he suddenly jumped up, and the basketball in his hand was lifted high.
"Oops!"
Jordan screamed and jumped up with his feet on the ground, stretching his arms as far as he could to block Kobe's shot. But after all, he is old and his jumping ability has declined, and it is obviously too late to make amends at this moment, and Kobe Bryant will never give him such a good opportunity.
The basketball slashed across Kobe's fingertips, as well as Jordan's, flying in a parabola toward the basket.
A few of the top interior players in the basket immediately sprang into action, using all their best skills to compete for a strong position. It used to be just an all-star game for everyone's entertainment, and because of the relationship between Lamar and Kobe, everyone else was also affected, and they did it from the beginning, but their efforts turned out to be in vain.
"Huh!"
Basketball breaks the net. With a three-pointer from Kobe, the Western Army scored a point.
"Ball!"
Jordan waved at Mourning, and Alonzo was not pretentious and threw the ball directly at him.
As soon as Jordan dribbled the ball past half court, Kobe Bryant couldn't wait to catch up. Although the three points just now made the momentum on his side pick up, it is more important for Kobe to defeat the mountain in front of him that has been pressing on him first. Kobe Bryant has always exchanged blood for blood, tooth for tooth, and the humiliation that Jordan gave himself back now wants to get it back.
Jordan didn't talk much nonsense, and rushed up with a cross step with a shake of his body, directly comparing with the department. For Jordan's step-back step-back jumper after dribbling the ball, Kobe Bryant still has palpitations. Jordan started to defend seriously before he rushed up. He knew that if he wanted to defend Jordan in a face-to-face battle, he was still a bit of a fool. He is not one of those reckless people who do not measure himself, rather than taking humiliation on himself, it is better to retreat to the next best thing, and try to entangle Jordan to prevent him from having a chance to make an easy shot.
"The plan is good, but is the god Joe so easy to deal with? The old guy probably eats more salt than you walked!" Lamar chuckled in his heart as he looked at Kobe's defensive appearance.
At this time, Qiao Dashen looked at Kobe Bryant, who was extremely focused in front of him, and looked in the direction of Carter. Although it was only a moment, it was still captured by the extremely sensitive Kobe, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, and his body moved a little uncontrollably in the direction of his left side.
It is such a small space that determines the victory or defeat of this duel. Jordan didn't even think about completing the offense this time, and he knew that he couldn't keep attacking from start to finish with his current physical strength. What's more, this game is an All-Star Game, not the time for him and Kobe Bryant's peak showdown. More importantly, after Lamar's dunk just now, the Western troops have significantly strengthened their defense under the basket. Jordan is no matter how powerful he is, and he will not be naΓ―ve to think that he can single-handedly take on the interior line guarded by Garnett, Duncan and Shaq, the three top interior players in the NBA, so it is imperative to share the firepower.
Just as Jordan broke to the free-throw line, he passed the ball to Lamar, who was already in the open space. Originally, he thought that he had passed it seamlessly this time, but at the last moment, he lost to the instinctive reaction of Kobe, a sensitive black mamba.
Jordan's passing is indeed flawless, but for a venomous snake like the Black Mamba, who always lives in the dark and is always in danger, a little wind is enough for them to react and make waves.
"Smack!"
The half-high ball was stopped by Kobe Bryant in mid-air. Blocking Jordan's pass, Kobe's momentum rose sharply, and just half a second later, he rushed towards the Eastern team's half.
Jordan was just stunned, and he didn't even have time to be annoyed before he quickly returned to defense. At this time, there was such a good scene on the court, chasing each other, but Kobe Bryant's speed was obviously faster.
Jordan's pace isn't slow, and he's always ready to jump and block. But Kobe Bryant didn't want such a good show to happen, his body seemed to hit a wall in front of the three-point line, and he stood up suddenly, and the basketball shoe rubbed against the ground, making a sharp and piercing noise.
Jordan's speed of chasing back was so fast that by the time Kobe Bryant stopped, he couldn't control it. I could only watch my body surpass Kobe, and then I saw Kobe Bryant jump up with a mocking sneer on his face and shoot a three-point shot.
It's a pity that Kobe Bryant wasn't happy for too long before he was interrupted!
"Smack!"
Lamar suddenly appeared behind Kobe Bryant and slapped the basketball: "Do you still want three points?
Jordan clapped his hands with relief on the court at this time, Lamar was really relieved at this time, and he saved a lot of face for himself.
The two All-Star teams faced off in real time at the beginning, which was the first time in the history of the All-Star Game. In the past All-Star Game, the first three quarters were the stage for players from both teams to perform. While the dunks and the performances of the players who are good at playing tricks are also very attractive, they can't compare to a matchup with all the power of today.
At this time, the audience at the scene also forgot the impact of their team's African mountains and the AI's absence due to injury today, and enjoyed this wonderful East-West super confrontation to the fullest.
"They don't seem to want to perform at all. Magic Johnson, the guest commentator for today's game, said with emotion: "From the first second of the game, these two teams were holding back to put each other to death. β
The Magic's partner is his old teammate on the court, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the two have formed a deep friendship since they were players, and they have become very good friends off the court because of their mutual affection, and there is no obstacle to their cooperation today.
"The core players on both teams are some of the NBA's most well-known paranoids, and they don't have much to show in their eyes. Now all they want is to win, even if it's an exhibition match like the one they have now. In their eyes, it will become a life-and-death battle, but today's audience is in a blessing, you must know that in the history of the NBA, there has never been a team as strong as these two teams today. β
The situation on the field is indeed developing in the direction of a life-and-death battle, as they say. EVEN THE BIGGEST SHARK O'NEAL, WHO IS THE BEST AT JUGGLING TREASURES, PUT AWAY HIS GAGMAN-LIKE HEART, BECAME SERIOUS, AND TOOK SUCH AN ALL-STAR GAME WITH THE SERIOUSNESS THAT CAN ONLY BE FOUND IN THE PLAYOFFS.
In the face of Kobe's aggressiveness, Lamar certainly will not choose to remain silent, blood for blood, tooth for tooth, is not Kobe's principle of doing things alone, Lamar is even more so.
"Lamar, are you going to attack one?" Morning grinned, eager to see Lamar explode. The feud between Lamar and Kobe Bryant was in the league at the beginning, and Mo rather didn't think that Lamar could always suppress it and not attack!
