Chapter 170: Superstar

P-J. Callesimo is calm on the surface, but he is panicked on the inside.

No, Grant Hill was pressed to death.

Why do you have 10 assists in a single Kobe Bryant???

Kobe Bryant, aren't you a scorer? The passing is still so demonic, how can we live?

"Coach..... Do you still want to wrap Kobe? ”

Looking at the Trail Blazers players, they went from being full of confidence before the start of the game, to being shocked after seeing Kobe's pass, and then to being struggling by the Lakers' empty shots one by one.

It's too hard, and the Trail Blazers players are already sweating after just one quarter.

Infinite rotation on the defensive end requires non-stop running, and on the offensive end, it also requires all effort to cut the ball under the basket, and the Lakers' outside defense puts a lot of pressure on them. As a result, the Trail Blazers' players have a lot of physical exertion after a quarter.

At the same time, the score is also a mental blow to them, if they lead, maybe they are willing to run like this under the high spirits.

But now they began to wonder if this tactic would lead to victory for them.

P-J. Callesimo let out a long sigh, knowing that the players meant that they didn't want to play with such a high load.

The feeling will fluctuate, but the passing vision will not, if you continue to play like this, Kobe Bryant's single-game assist will only break 30.

That's it, now that this tactic has been broken, P-J Callesimo is not willing to continue to hold on.

"Return to normal play, single defense Kobe." P-J Callesimo made this difficult decision.

"Okay, Coach. I'm going to defend Kobe Bryant! "Isaiah Ryder volunteered.

But even P-J Callesimo didn't think Kobe Bryant could be singled out, which was undoubtedly the choice of the less toxic one among the two poisons.

P-J Callesimo didn't take a ride and made a cross on his chest.

God forbid, I hope Kobe Bryant is iron.

This scene was captured by the cameras on the sidelines, and the local reporters in Los Angeles had already thought of tomorrow's headline "Callesimo has no choice but to pray to the gods", and presumably tomorrow's newspaper will sell out again!

Journalists in Los Angeles are really grateful to Kobe Bryant, who has produced countless news materials for them this season, and has made history for their achievements and fed most of the sports news industry in Los Angeles.

In the combat stage of the substitute players, due to the lack of Horry's organization, Nick Van Axel began to let himself go again, and actually learned from Kobe Bryant to play LOGO SHOT, of course, he didn't hit. The angry Harris decisively replaced him, using Byron Scott, who has barely played this season.

Nick Van Axel came off the pitch wondering, what did I do wrong? Lost a shot? Doesn't Kobe Bryant also throw a lot?

The Lakers' bench has become messy, Harris sighed, Fisher's seniority is still young, and he can't hold down the players on the bench at all, and it seems that he still has to put Horry on the bench and find a new point of organization. Shark Shot can only be used as a special emergency measure, and there is no way to use it as a conventional weapon.

But how can an all-around role player like Robert Horry in the league be so easy to find?

The Lakers' starting lead was gradually eroded by the Trail Blazers' strong bench. The bench lineup that the Trail Blazers piled up with money is also excellent, especially in this game, P-J. Callesimo put the team's starting point guard Kenny Anderson, who averaged 17.5 points and 7.1 assists per game, on the bench, and the Lakers were not able to match the player on the top at all, and Fisher was eaten by Kenny Anderson in a row.

When the Lakers starting lineup returned to the court, the score had changed to Portland Trail Blazers 41:45 Los Angeles Lakers!

Both teams are almost back on the same page.

When Bryant dribbled to the Trail Blazers' half, it was found that they had finally stopped wrapping.

The physically strong Isiah Ryder appeared in front of Kobe.

"Kobe, duel like a man! 1V1! Let me see what you're capable of! ”

Kobe Bryant's eyes flashed coldly, waiting for your single defense!

"Unsurprisingly, the Trail Blazers were forced to give up the bag by Kobe's unpredictable pass, and this was an opportunity." The Magic raised his wine glass, and Bryant's performance in this game made him very eager to know where the next game would go.

"Don't look at it, Scotty. It's over. Jordan changed out of his training jersey and walked out of the locker room. Single defense? It's just another medal for Kobe Bryant's wall of honor.

"It's a pity, I really want to see what the limits of Kobe Bryant's passing look like." Grant Hill felt that he hadn't fully comprehended Kobe's jump pass, and he wanted to continue to observe, but the Trail Blazers didn't give him that opportunity.

Here it comes!

Bryant was ready to attack with the ball in his hands, and he knew in his head that Isiah Ryder's power was dominant.

Against this kind of player, Kobe Bryant has a lot of experience!

The crotch dribble, the rhythm of the combination of fast and slow, and the two shakes deflected Ryder's center of gravity.

Hasten! It's over!

Hit the basket, before the Trail Blazers players could react, Kobe Bryant quickly completed the pick-up like a lightning bolt!

"So fast!" Ryder sweated on his forehead.

P-J Callesimo on the sidelines clenched his fists even more.

Go on! Kobe Bryant is unforgiving!

Use easy-to-use ball control skills to continue to break through Ryder to success!

Or solve the problem with a pull-up jumper, or hit the basket head-on to challenge the Trail Blazers' interior defense.

When Sabonis and Rasheed Wallace focused on Kobe, Bryant turned the breakaway layup into a covert air pass for O'Neal and Horry in the open space!

Kobe Bryant's scoring efficiency was no worse than the Lakers' shooting percentage in the first quarter!

And the Lakers starters, who have been in shape since the first quarter, are also very excited, O'Neal catches and dunks under consecutive baskets, grabs the frontcourt rebound and makes up for the dunk.

This time O'Neill and Sabonis faced off, O'Neill had the overall upper hand.

Sabonis, who is on the defensive side, is very difficult to shoot and at the same time score consecutive points himself!

At the end of the second quarter, the Lakers, led by Kobe, quickly launched a wave of offensive surge to extend the lead.

At halftime, the Portland Trail Blazers 53-67 Los Angeles Lakers.

Although his offense still maintains a good efficiency, the defense has collapsed!

The Lakers' offense, led by Kobe, played a dominant performance, extending the margin to 14 points in one fell swoop.

Kobe Bryant scored 14 points, 13 assists and 2 steals in the half, showing his unsolved passing vision in the first quarter and his unsolved offensive ability in the second quarter!

That's superstar-level dominance!
