Chapter 60: Kobe Bryant, who steals the spotlight
O'Neill is also helpless, he is not afraid of flexible inside lines. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBecause most of the flexible interior lines have no power, a bump can disrupt their rhythm. And this guy Mo Ning is obviously a bit different, even if he is flexible, he has to add excellent strength. Although there is still a certain gap compared to O'Neal himself, it is still enough to resist the blow, and this kind of interior O'Neal is very difficult to defend.
The worst thing is that this girl is still a sick number, if she goes on like this, in case she gets better. Isn't it interesting that he might really become his most powerful opponent? O'Neal is still glad that he still has so many top-level interior lines when he entered the league, and if it were a few seasons later, in the face of the league's era of no center, O'Neal really didn't know what to do?
And Kobe Bryant looked at the high-spirited and domineering O'Neal beside him. At this time, my heart is also touching, and the miss of last year's championship has made the youngest player of the 96 golden generation grow up thoroughly. And for now. Kobe's skills have begun to reach the peak, even if Jordan is coming back, it is impossible to be much better than this guy, and now Kobe Bryant is the best candidate for the position of scoring guard, Kobe has height, speed, skill and the fighting spirit of never giving up!
And it's all considered the best choice, but now O'Neill is the mountain that weighs on his heart. After all, the main core of the current team is still O'Neal, if the Lakers can succeed this year, it should be O'Neal's success, not his Kobe Brown Bryant's, and now he has begun to gradually think that he has the ability to lead a team to win the championship Kobe, and the relationship between O'Neal has begun to have a subtle change!
Kobe Bryant himself doesn't know yet, but even if he does, what if he does? According to his character, he won't bow his head! Fortunately, the current situation is still developing silently, and no one notices the slightest abnormality. But now Kobe Bryant's unwillingness, as he has a strong sense of competition, he hopes that he will become the brightest star, not one of them!
Jason Kidd was the first to spot Kobe's fighting spirit, and as the best point guard in the league, he had a basic insight into the state of each teammate, and he gave the ball to Kobe Bryant as a point guard instinct. He believes that Kobe Bryant in the explosion can solve everything.
After Kobe Bryant received the ball, he was like a beast with its own fangs, ready to catch its prey, and Carter, who was defending him, really didn't expect that the game had just begun, and the people who were defending themselves began to go crazy, one accelerated and one changed direction, Kobe Bryant didn't make superfluous moves, two simple but swift actions, which had made Carter lose his defensive position!
Kobe Bryant accelerated again and rushed to the penalty area defended by Mourning, the penalty area was very empty at this time, O'Neal stood aside and did not move, and Mourning, who was defending him, had already gone to make up for the defense, but would Kobe pass the ball to O'Neal? Let O'Neal make a comfortable dunk, everyone on earth knows that this is impossible! Not to mention that on the stage of the All-Star performance, Kobe Bryant has to do it alone.
And for Mourning, that's what he wants. But at this time, he is in a weak position, after all, it is still terrible for a top scoring guard to rush up, especially a scorer like this who can still make countless changes in the air, sometimes it is really a little helpless, but Mourning just likes challenges, doesn't he?
Kobe Bryant yelled and flew up, he jumped very high, he proved how good his bounce was back in '97, his strong momentum, and determined eyes all showed that he was going to dunk one across Lamar Brown, and all the audience thought so, and Mourning was no exception.
Mourning is also jumping high, he is confident! If Kobe Bryant chooses to be strong next, he will definitely be punished, a punishment that he will never forget! This is a lesson that contempts him Mourning, no one can dunk on my Mourning's head, not even God. This is what Mo Ning said to himself silently.
Just when he was about to touch the ball, he saw that Kobe was about to put on a big hat! At this time, Kobe moved, he suddenly put his raised arm flat and changed his body to a sliding action, this kind of hard change can see how powerful Kobe's body control is, such a powerful control ability is obviously beyond everyone's expectations, Mo Ning's hand ready to block hit Kobe's arm directly, and the whistle sounded without a doubt.
But Kobe Bryant's action was clearly not over yet, he was still gliding, and the moment the horse landed, he threw the ball out with a light weight, and the ball spun around the basket twice before rolling in, a beautiful two-and-one.
Kobe Bryant's action was applauded without a doubt, whether it was the previous one or the two plus one who deceived Morning! All of them reflected Kobe's extraordinary ability, which could not help but make people wonder whether O'Neal's existence had become an obstacle to Kobe's growth? This guy could become Jordan's successor!
Lamar watched Kobe's performance off the court, and he didn't feel happy, but felt a little uneasy! Now Kobe is getting better and better, if he is a guy with a more tolerant personality, then it's okay to say! He will definitely get along with Shaq very happily, but Kobe Bryant is too paranoid to move back to 100 cows.
Now Kobe Bryant has not challenged Shaq's strength and prestige, but with the loss of time, Shak's age has gradually increased, and the tiger cub will always grow up to show his sharp minions! And Kobe Bryant entered the NBA at the age of 17, and his mind is not mature, if he is replaced by Michael Jordan, it is obvious that he will choose a smooth way to achieve the team's flag carrying responsibility and achieve an orderly inheritance!
Obviously, Kobe Bryant would not choose this way, Lamar knows this guy very well! In the future, this guy did not untie his knot until he won the first championship after Shaq left, and reconciled with Shaq regardless of his previous suspicions! Now Kobe will definitely choose the most fierce way to compete for the dominance of the team, and then the contradiction will inevitably be revealed, which is also the reason why Lamar is starting to have a headache now, because Kobe's current performance has made Lamar see a little bad sign!
Many people believe that as long as Kobe Bryant continues in this state, the contradiction between him and O'Neal is irreconcilable! You must know that the reason why Jordan was successful was because he bumped into Pippen, and Pippen has appeared for so many years, and you can't ask a player who is destined to be a top 50 player to be willing to play as a supporting role. At least O'Neal and Kobe Bryant can't do it. (To be honest, if Shaq and Kobe Bryant are sensible enough to sit down and have a good talk, maybe OK can really continue, didn't Shaq go to the Heat in the future and choose to assist Wade? It's a pity that these two guys in the Lakers are childish and paranoid! Now we have to add an instability factor~~ Lamar Odom)
After that, the game began to come to Kobe Bryant time, Carter's careless defense, and Kobe's strong personal desire to attack, made the Eastern defense completely a sieve.
Kobe Bryant used constant jump shots and constantly attacked the basket to refresh his scoring numbers, letting everyone know that he Kobe was aiming for the MVP trophy.
Many of the people who participated in the All-Star are old fritters who have participated more than once, and they are not as strong masochistic as Kobe, and they are all working hard to fight there!
In addition, the current number of all-star shots is average on everyone, and the benefits are evenly distributed. The outside line that relies on shooting is naturally not as safe as the inside line, and the West is simply 3 centers dangling on the court (O'Neal, Garnett, Duncan) are all macho men who average ten rebounds per game, so the West has a great advantage in terms of score.
If this situation continues, it is estimated that the eastern troops will be disarmed and surrendered at halfway! If this situation is to be changed, the eastern part must immediately make changes.
Larry Brown was helpless in his heart, and he sighed in his heart why his luck was so bad, coaching an All-Star team to catch up with the "period" of a certain over-energy man. And a few macho men on his side who can compete with each other are actually collectively impotent. Although AI is always so full of fighting spirit, Larry Brown can't use him, he is the head coach of the Eastern Stars and the head coach of the 76ers, and it is not in the interests of the 76ers to use the AI combat power in the All-Star Game.
In case of injury, it is estimated that Larry Brown will not cry anywhere? The current 76ers may not be able to do much without AI defense, but without AI on offense, it is estimated that 80 points will not pass! This is not just the 30 points lost on the books, but the initiation point and breakthrough point of the AI to make the offense, Larry knows that without AI7 people are estimated to not even be able to attack, so no matter what, AI must not play, Larry Brown originally planned to let him go up meaning that two minutes is Brown, looked at the point guard on his bench, it can be said that the point guards in the East have a characteristic, super offensive ability, weak organizational ability. But it is very irrational to compare offensive ability with Kobe, a madman, so this path does not work.
Larry thought of Grant Hill at this time: "Can you consider letting Grant Hill play as a point forward?"
So after Bryant sent a little bit of a beating, Larry Brown asked for a timeout, which seemed normal to others, and the team was in a disadvantage. It's normal for a manager to call a timeout, isn't it?
Larry Brown's first words were: "When Allen's timeout is over, you stay on the bench, Ray Allen you play!"
