Chapter 1389: Team VS Individual
Chapter 1389 Team vs Individual Jordan Moves!
Which move did he want to use? Backward jumper, turnaround jumper, throw, rebound shot? -- Kobe Bryant's mind flashed the stunts of one NBA star after another, nervously watching Jordan's every move, and he must defend this ball. ()
Jordan slammed to the left, but Bryant defended. The back, then the right, is blocked again. Pullback, a dazzling dribble, Kobe Bryant was not fooled.
"Michael, you're old!" Kobe Bryant didn't forget to return to Jordan with trash talk.
"Really?" Jordan smiled faintly, choosing to break through again between words.
"Michael, you can't get by!" Bryant yelled.
But at this time, Kobe Bryant only felt a flower in front of him, and a ball shadow flew out.
What? Silhouette Throwing? -- Kobe Bryant is terrifying. If this goal can be scored, it would be too exaggerated. This difficulty is probably only inferior to the 360 shots in the air spin.
Kobe Bryant hurriedly looked back. But there is no shadow of basketball at the basket.
What's going on?Where's the ball?--Kobe Bryant was stunned, a little stupid on the spot. The ball in Jordan's hand flew out, but there was no basketball in the basket, so where was the basket? Looking around, the ball was in Billups' hand.
Passing?--Kobe Bryant was dumbfounded. Jordan actually chose to pass the ball? Isn't it going to be one-on-one!
Just when Kobe Bryant was puzzled, the sound of the basketball in Billups' hand came back again. However, by this time, Jordan had retreated beyond the three-point line.
Oops!--Kobe yelled that something was wrong and rushed over. But it was too late, and Jordan easily shot a three-pointer.
Whew! The score is only 2 points away!
"Michael, you're cheating! Didn't you say it's good to be single-handed!" Kobe Bryant looked at Jordan in annoyance. You know, if he hadn't restrained his body just now, I'm afraid he would have hit Jordan, which would undoubtedly give Jordan a free throw opportunity for nothing.
"It's heads-up! Didn't I throw the ball in!" Jordan shrugged helplessly.
"Bastard!" looked at Jordan in the distance, Kobe Bryant cursed.
Well, that's a good thing!—Phil Jackson secretly cheered in the dugout.
Bryant's worst thing has always been teamwork and leadership. And Jordan's hand will undoubtedly stimulate Kobe. Maybe Kobe Bryant can't learn what teamwork and leadership skills are in this game, but when he loses this game, then Kobe Bryant will definitely understand this.
Although the price paid is a bit large, growth comes at a price.
Bryant holds the ball and faces Jordan.
"Why don't you have a companion to help you too, so you'll have a little easier. Otherwise, if you don't score this goal, the score will be equalized. Jordan still didn't forget to provoke Kobe Bryant at any time. If Bryant chooses to pass, then this game will not be good. In the face of Kobe, although Jordan scored these balls one by one, his physical strength was almost exhausted, otherwise he would not have used Billups to overdo it just now, and then airdropped three points.
Taking a deep breath and slowly calming his undulating chest, Jordan spread his hands. If it was a normal game, Jordan would have asked the coach to change at this moment and let Wade play. But at this moment, in the face of Kobe Bryant, who is suppressed in his heart and may explode at any time, Wade is still too tender to keep the angry Kobe in front of him. Only by using the experience and jishu gained in his career can he defend it.
But
Bryant made a strong burst and hit a pull-up jump shot to hit a 2-point shot.
The margin widened again to four points.
Kobe! Kobe!
Staples Arena is once again a sea of joy. Although the score is narrowing point by point, Jordan just used Billups to open the gap to score a goal, while Kobe Bryant directly faced Jordan to score a goal, and the gap between the two is not the same. And this proves that in the latest chapter of the martial arts, their "Peter Pan" has begun to surpass Michael Jordan!
The crowd in Staples Arena screamed hoarsely for Kobe Bryant's feat.
He will be the first person in the NBA in the future!- David Stern lamented. If it weren't for the rape case he made last year, Kobe Bryant would have always been the darling of the NBA. It's a pity that his rape case made his image plummet. But now it seems that Kobe Bryant relied on his own efforts to get fans to start accepting him again.
Kobe Bryant is really strong!--Phil Jackson lamented. However, what worries Phil Jackson is that the stronger Kobe Bryant is, the more he understands the importance of the team and the importance of leadership.
Michael, I hope you can teach Kobe Bryant this lesson!
At the end of the season, O'Neal's contract is about to expire. At that time, it will definitely cause a shock to the Lakers because of O'Neal's contract extension. Kobe and O'Neal have proven that the latest chapter of the martial arts world cannot coexist, so what should they do then?--Kobe Bryant will undoubtedly be chosen. The current Kobe Bryant is still too young, and his personal jishu is almost perfect, but his leadership skills and teamwork spirit are still lacking. Therefore, Phil Jackson pinned Kobe's growth on Michael Jordan.
Michael Jordan never lives up to expectations.
Immediately, using Yao Ming's high post again, Jordan completed a jumper. Narrow the score to 2 points again!
"Michael, are you just going to run away!" Kobe Bryant also began to stimulate Jordan constantly.
"Kobe, do you think you can be superior to the team?" Jordan scoffed.
"It's true that the individual is inseparable from the team. But, as you just said, as long as I keep scoring, how can I not be above the team in terms of individual strength? After all, this is a game of points!" Kobe Bryant said disdainfully.
Demonstrative! This little guy is demonic! Obviously, he is in a state of absolute self-worship of personal strength. This mistake was also made by Jordan in his early years. And the reason why Jordan was able to win his first championship was from the year when he understood how to perfectly integrate his personal strength and team.
The current Kobe, although he won 3 championships, was when O'Neal was powerful and Kobe Bryant was an assistant. If the Lakers now let Kobe Bryant play the leading role and O'Neal play the supporting role, it can be said that the Lakers will get nothing.
"Then let's see who laughs at Zuihou!" Jordan silently counted the time and tried his best to defend Kobe.
Kobe Bryant at this moment, his personal jishu has indeed reached perfection, and Jordan has been unable to completely block Kobe Bryant due to a serious decline in physical strength.
An unbalanced projection, Bryant stretched the score to four points again.
After Kobe Bryant landed, he thumped his chest heavily. At this moment, he surpassed Jordan, he could give what he wanted in front of Jordan, but Jordan couldn't!
Phil Jackson, do you see me, do you see my strength! Will you trust that fat guy completely!--Kobe Bryant roared.
Unexpectedly, Kobe Bryant saw Phil Jackson's shaking expression.
Aren't you satisfied? I've scored eight points in front of Jordan in the fourth quarter, aren't you satisfied!--Kobe Bryant roared in his heart. Since you're still not satisfied, then I'm going to keep attacking, keep attacking, until I completely blow Jordan out!
Unfortunately, Kobe Bryant didn't understand that the more obsessed he was with going it alone, the more dissatisfied Phil Jackson became.
Michael, I hope you can beat him! Only you can save Kobe Bryant, who is now perfect. - Phil Jackson was reluctant to pin his hopes on the enemy.
In the rematch, Jordan pushed the team to the limit, constantly using pick-and-rolls and counter-runs to score. Kobe Bryant, on the other hand, is obsessed with individual singles, and although it is extremely difficult to score every time, Kobe Bryant throws the ball this time.
Under the back and forth between the two sides, the score still hovered between 2 points and 4 points.
Boom - Jordan took advantage of Boozer's pick-and-roll, bypassed Kobe's defense, and scored a layup.
The score is back to 2 points again!
Kobe Bryant with the ball!
At this moment, the game is nearing the end with 29 seconds left. Bryant prepares to shoot a basket when the offense is a second to Zuihou. As long as he scores, and the score is four points apart, then he wins. And after this game, not only will the Los Angeles Lakers advance to the Finals again, but he will also officially surpass Jordan, and those media will have nothing to say.
"Bang!", "Bang!", "Bang!" the basketball hit the floor with a bang, then bounced back into Bryant's hand again. The Staples Arena was so quiet that you could hear the sound of a pin hitting the ground. All the spectators couldn't help but hold their breath as they wanted to see who would win the match.
Will Michael Jordan, who took team basketball to the extreme, win, or Kobe Bryant, who is obsessed with individual jishu, will win? These are two genres, two completely different styles, so who will win?
Kobe Bryant looked at Jordan in front of him with a look of disdain. The man in front of him, whom he once regarded as an idol and an ultimate goal, has fallen. The depraved need to rely on the liliang of others to compete with themselves. It turns out that Michael Jordan is nothing more than that!
"You, that's all!" Kobe Bryant changed the pace of the dribble and prepared to break through.
"Then let me see if you can break through me and score this goal!" Jordan smiled faintly and gestured to Kobe Bryant without noticing.
Billups, who was in the distance, understood, and moved slightly outward, getting a little closer to Jordan. Peyton looked at it and didn't pay much attention to it. Since the second half, Kobe Bryant and Jordan have been obsessed with individual heads-up. Although Jordan later used the team to score, he never used anyone when defending, and was still obsessed with individual defense, so Payton didn't care about Billups' small move.
Not good!—Phil Jackson saw that there was something wrong with that. Immediately stood up and wanted to shout zuihou for a timeout. But after thinking about it, I gave up.
Kobe, since you are so obsessed with personal jishu, then prove to me that in the latest chapter of martial arts, your personal jishu is enough to defeat all opponents. - Phil Jackson stared at Kobe Bryant calmly.
Taking the first lightning step, Kobe Bryant has broken through Jordan by half a body. This is determined by physical fitness, and the 42-year-old Jordan can no longer keep up with Kobe. Originally, Kobe Bryant didn't want to use his physical advantage to attack, because this would make Kobe absolutely invincible. But Jordan has taken advantage of the team, and in this Zuihou goal, he uses his physical advantage, which is also reasonable.
But Jordan never gave up, and tried his best to keep up!
Kobe Bryant made a quick stop and was about to jump shot. Jordan immediately retracted his body and returned to Kobe. But again, Bryant broke through again. This time, there was nothing Jordan could do, there was nothing he could do about it. His brain reacted, but his body couldn't.
Old!
However, Jordan made a strange move that everyone couldn't understand, and ran towards the Los Angeles Lakers' position. Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Jordan was doing.
Soon the answer will be revealed!--Just when Kobe Bryant had completely broken through Jordan and was about to make a big windmill slam dunk, a dark shadow flashed by-Billups suddenly appeared in front of him, stretched out his giant hand and slapped the basketball in Kobe's hand.
Oops! Back to defense! -- Payton and Malone, a pair of players who are crazy about the championship, immediately shouted that it was not good, and desperately tried to get back to the defense.
What's going on?--Kobe Bryant's mind was excited, he didn't expect that in Zuihou's moment, Jordan would "shamelessly" use the assistant defense to break his ball.
Michael, you've let me down so much!--Kobe yelled, turning his head frantically and chasing after Jordan who was fast-breaking with the ball.
Don't think you're going to beat me like this! Tell you, I'm undefeated!—Kobe Bryant burst out with all his energy and caught up with Jordan step by step.
Finally, when Jordan entered the third division, Kobe Bryant caught up with Jordan and stopped in front of Jordan.
"Whoa, whoa, Jordan, you can't get past me. Kobe Bryant gasped, gasped.
"Kobe, you're really good. Maybe there is no one on this planet who is your opponent in heads-up, but I tell you one thing - basketball is a team sport. With a slight shake of Jordan's hand, the basketball flew to Billups, who was already waiting in the three-point zone.
No, never!--Kobe Bryant roared, and his strong sense of victory made him unwilling to fall short at this time, and frantically threw himself at Billups.
Finally, when Billups jumped, Bryant arrived, stretched out his giant hand, and did everything he could to defend Billups. It's a pity that at this time, Billups looked at Kobe Bryant calmly, and the basketball in his hand pierced Jordan, who had retreated to the three-point line.
A hollow three-point net. The Houston Rockets overtook by one point!
The entire Staples Arena fell silent. No one expected this to happen with seven seconds left in the game. The Houston Rockets actually overtook it.
Kobe Bryant was stupid! The Lakers players were stupid! Malone and Payton had already caught up, but they could only helplessly watch Jordan score three points, and the two were silent for a long time.
"Michael, you're the best!" Lin Feng jumped up wildly, and couldn't help but run to the field to give Jordan a hug.
Suddenly, the Houston Rockets' bench became a sea of joy. The whole game was behind, all the time behind, all the time Zuihou, the Houston Rockets finally overtook the score. Although the competition is not over yet, at least they have seen the light of day to reach the finals.
At this moment, a whistle sounded. Phil Jackson called a timeout.
"Kobe, you keep saying I don't believe you, and now I'll hand it over to you as soon as Zuihou votes. Leave the team's hopes of reaching the Finals, the dreams of Malone and Payton championships to you!I hope you don't let me down!" Phil Jackson surprised all Lakers fans, did not arrange any tactics, just handed the ball to Kobe.
