"Boom!"
The basketball hoop was swayed up and down by Kobe's powerful slam dunk. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Richardson still didn't even react at all, took the ball and served it to Piakowski.
Piakowski turned on the motor again, made another pull-up at the three-point line, and then hit a three-point shot, and a pull-up jump shot like this on the run has always been his forte.
In turn, Bryant took advantage of Grant's pick-and-roll to find an open shot and make a successful shot.
When it was the Clippers' turn to attack, Richardson used Olovo Kandi's cover to break through Kobe Bryant's defense and score a layup.
After the first wave of the opening game, the game soon moved on to the second act, and people saw the good play that the two rivals often played when they met in the same city derby in the 80s, and they began to fight each other wildly.
"Elton, I see the team is playing very well now, I don't think you need to play again, let's go to the hospital, what do you think? The team's problems are not solved all at once!" Elgin Baylor persuaded Lamar to give up the idea of continuing to play.
Brand watched the on-the-TV point battle and stood up: "Mr. Elgin Baylor! This match is something I've always looked forward to, I want to prove that I'm not worse than Lamar, I deserve the top pick, so I don't want to miss it." ”
After saying that, he pushed open the door of the locker room and walked out, and Elgin Baylor behind him couldn't help frowning.
The closer he got to the exit of the players' tunnel, the louder the cheers of the fans in Brand's ears became, and you didn't have to look at it to know that Kobe Bryant was definitely attacking again on the court now.
But when Brand walked to the exit, the cheers of the crowd suddenly stopped, followed by a tsunami-like boo, and the big screen was replaying what had just happened.
Bryant broke through Richardson and suddenly changed direction, dodging Olovo Candi's block and hitting a basket, but he was pulled down by a hand in mid-air and fell heavily to the ground, and then the camera turned to lock on to the perpetrator.
It was Corima Getty, who had a relationship with Lamar in the draft.
After Kobe Bryant fell, he lay on the ground and covered his back, his eyes closed and his expression was painful and motionless, and he could only see from his constantly trembling body and clenched fists that he must have been injured this time.
He may not even remember how many wounds he had, and every time this strong guy was injured and fell, he immediately got up and continued to fight, but this time was clearly different.
When Kobe Bryant just landed, he only had time to take a little protection, and his back still slammed straight on the floor.
Everyone knows what the back means to athletes, how many talented athletes have to choose to leave their favorite arena because of back injuries, the back is in a sense the life of an athlete, among all sports injuries, back injuries are the most difficult to heal and the most difficult to eradicate.
The perpetrator, Corey Magetti, was standing next to Kobe Bryant and was besieged by other Lakers players, but he always held his head high, with disdain and a trace of unwillingness in his eyes, and of course regret.
Like many young players, Corrima Geetti also admires Jordan and regards the strong and unyielding Jordan as his idol, Jordan is his favorite player, there is no one!
He would be excited about every wonderful pass of Jordan, shout loudly for every score of Jordan, and give the middle finger to everyone who violated Jordan, shouting and scolding! How much he hated those guys who used to use dirty methods in the game!
But Kobe, who is now known as the closest to Jordan after Jordan's retirement, was shamelessly put down, and the murderer was indeed himself!
At first, he was very flustered when he saw Kobe Bryant's painful expression, but when the other Lakers players surrounded him, the pride in his heart made him choose to face everything with his head held high.
He has always liked basketball since he was a child, and God has given him an excellent body, he has always cherished every opportunity to start, relying on his own efforts to climb step by step to the team's starting position, dignified, and never disdainful to do those actions.
I don't know why I was so hot-headed just now, and I pulled Kobe Bryant down after he scored a layup.
Bill Wharton couldn't help but exclaim when he saw this scene in the commentary seat: "Corey, look what have you done? What a stupid move!"
Lamar stood on the sidelines and looked at Kobe Bryant, who was lying on the ground and being examined by the team doctors, his heart was more angry than worried, Corymagetti was deliberately hurting people just now, and there was no other reason than this explanation.
He glanced back at Phil, who was also extremely anxious standing beside him, and said, "Phil, let me play next!
Phil was startled by Lamar's eyes, and after hearing his request clearly, his head quickly shook non-stop: "Not for the time being! You and Shaq must retain enough physical strength to cope with the next game, Kobe Bryant will not have a strong attack point if he is not in us, and there will be holes in the outside defense!"
"Then let's see the situation!" Lamar said and shrugged helplessly, wanting to go on the court to see Kobe's situation, but unfortunately the rules don't allow it.
Kobe's departure from the court was a major blow to the Lakers, and Ron Harber, who was replaced on the court, simply couldn't dominate the Lakers' offense like Kobe, and the Lakers' huge lead has become smaller and smaller with the return of Brand!
"Phil, I'm rested, let's play!" Lamar looked at Phil Jackson with a determined expression.
Phil Jackson glanced back at Lamar, "Are you sure!"
"That's right, I never wanted to be so hungry for a game now, send me on!"
In the middle of the third quarter, Lamar re-entered the court and replaced Ron Haber, appearing on the court as a small forward for the first time since entering the NBA! That's right, Lamar played as a playmaker at the request of Phil Jackson!
Bryant was carried out on a stretcher when he left the court, and Lamar had already expected that Bryant might not be able to return for a while this time, which made the anger in his heart skyrocket.
Standing at the free-throw line, Lamar stared at Corimageti with cold eyes: "Listen! You're going to pay for what you just did." ”
Corimageti was a little flustered in the face of Lamar at this time, but he still said with a stiff mouth: "Let me pay, it's up to you? Are you sure you're not from Broadway? ”
"Good!" Lamar smiled and threw the ball without even looking at the hoop, and to his surprise, the ball went in.
The Clippers couldn't shoot, and Anderson grabbed the rebound. The Lakers get the ball again!
This time, the defender who stood in front of Lamar was replaced by Elton Brand.
"Lamar! They all say you're the best rookie in NBA history, you're the top pick in '99, but unfortunately I don't think so! Now let me see how good you are, whether you're good or I'm good!"
Of course, Brand has reason to be upset, he is the eighth grade of the 99th class champion, Lamar is only the No. 4 show, the two are in Los Angeles, he is the deserved boss of the team, Lamar is the second or third? But the attention he has received is less than a fraction of Lamar's.
Lamar smiled, a demonic face, "You'll see it right away." ”
Chauncey, who replaced Tyrone Lue as a point guard, put the sideline ball to Lamar, Lamar didn't even adjust, holding the ball, turning, jumping, shooting, the whole action was coherent and smooth, and the final result was even more amazing, the ball went into the basket safely.
After the goal, Lamar looked at Elton Brand and said, "Do you see it now?"
"It's not enough!"
What Brand said is not enough is that he has not yet conceded defeat, and it is estimated that he will admit defeat, and there is no hope of waiting for Lamar to retire, or even the dissolution of the NBA. Of course, he is not a bad thing, and he immediately interprets his words with practical actions.
Piakowski dribbled to the front court and passed to Elton Brand, who turned and hit a three-point shot, and the encounter with a good opponent like Lamar only made him feel excited and play even better.
Phil Jackson also made adjustments after Brand's goal, and Bryan Shaw was released again after almost two quarters of smothering.
Shaw came on with Phil Jackson's orders, and as soon as he got on the court, he pulled past Anderson and Grant and muttered.
The two interior stalwarts shared the pressure with Lamal on offense, with Olovo Kandi being held out by Anderson and Grant using his experience to entangle Elton Brand, leaving the Clippers with neither Richardson nor Margeti to fear.
"You think you can beat me, right?" Corimageti has been broken by Lamar several times in a row.
Lamar slowly dribbled the ball looking for another chance to break through: "Yes, I can beat you, but it's not this game. ”
"You're saying you're going to lose today?" said Corimageti, unable to hide his joy.
"No, stupid, we're going to win tonight, and I say not tonight because I don't have much chance of playing against you, and I'm going to feel like I'm not going to win. ”
Corimagetti's face changed, and he felt as if he was being slighted: "Boy, it's not your turn to pity me, and now I can still beat you to the ground." ”
"Really?" Lamar said as his body suddenly moved, dribbling in the direction of Margeti's left, no superfluous feints, and all about winning with strength.
Margeti did have a lot of problems with his physical strength after going through an offensive and defensive battle with Kobe. In addition, he had just played against Lamar again, and his steps were no longer as flexible as at the beginning, and he looked a little heavy, unable to keep up with Lamar's rhythm at all!
