The first quarter ended, 24:19. Bryant's bench took a five-point advantage.

"Boss, we're ahead of last year's Lakers starters! It's so unreal. Fisher yelled, he had just made a couple of good performances in a row. The results of the summer training were shown, with Fisher dominating both height and strength on the offensive end. Van Exel's competitive form is not very good, and the defense is not focused, so Lao Yu is very comfortable on the field.

"They're missing a core, they're a mess and we're a team!" Kobe raised his head and his eyes swept over each of his teammates one by one, and their progress was even greater than Kobe expected.

"yes, I thought so too." Ben Wallace was very excited, and his on-the-go style of play was very much to his appetite. He can be said to be the player with the strongest presence on the court except for Kobe, and several hot pots have made the starters lose face.

"Guys, keep fighting like this, guard against their counterattack." Bryant encouraged his teammates that there was still a quarter of the game, and when the starters adjusted, it was difficult to say whether the winner would be lost.

Del Harris looked at Kobe Bryant with fiery eyes, is this the future of the Lakers? The player, who has just turned 18, is not mature, and his skills, willpower, and leadership are impeccable. He's a natural superstar embryo.

The difference between the two teams' player configuration is visible to the naked eye, but the bench can still hold on and even lead under the leadership of Kobe.

"Maybe he has a chance to surpass Jordan." A thought popped into Del Harris's mind, and he shook his head with a random laugh, feeling that he was thinking too far ahead, and that this was not the top priority.

Del Harris looked at the starters with some anger, it seemed that they had a very happy summer, Ceballos had become a ball, and he couldn't see the heroism of the All-Star level small forward last year.

"Hey, hey, Nick. You pass me a few more balls. Ceballos didn't know that Del Harris was already dissatisfied with him, and in his opinion, he was the number two man in the team, and both his teammates and coaches had to rely on him and coax him.

Nick Van Exel's face was a little dark, he was already angry that he was given the lead by a group of rookies, and this uncompetitive idiot Ceballos dared to ask me for the ball, he didn't know how many shots he had just missed.

Neither Campbell nor Eddie Jones were talkative, but they were a little embarrassed by the behind-the-scenes scene, and they looked at each other and decided to show some real skills.

"Toot!" Rambis blew the whistle for the start of the second quarter.

This time it was the substitutes who had the ball, and just after Fisher dribbled the ball past half-time, Van Exel pressed it up.

"Damn, my old fish has been targeted." Fisher was a little flustered, and he was about to lose the ball, and in his panic, he was about to pass the ball to Kobe.

A sturdy figure suddenly came out, it was Eddie Jones! Eddie Jones intercepted Fisher's pass, drove the ball forward, and scored in the open half.

"You're not the only one who can play fast break." Eddie Jones turned his head and said to Kobe.

Kobe Bryant smiled, and this was like it.

"ISO, pull away." Bryant made a gesture, took Bowen's serve, and dribbled himself from the halfcourt. The starting team wants to get on the ground, and the Black Mamba's favorite thing to do is to give them a lethal blow when the opponent is on the rise.

This goal is crucial, and the momentum of hitting the opponent will be extinguished. If you don't advance, the opponent is likely to speed up and play a continuous attack wave.

Kobe Bryant has been through this game countless times, and he knows that at this time, he needs to be absolutely calm. Eddie Jones' defense is good, and Bryant is waiting for an opportunity.

Eddie Jones was a little dignified in the face of Kobe, although Kobe was only dribbling the ball at a very uniform speed, but he felt the momentum that would explode at that moment.

Kobe Bryant continued to dribble under his hips, and the rhythm was very slow. On the basketball court, speed is not the only weapon that can break down the opponent's defense. Sometimes, slowing down can be more threatening.

The most threatening moment for a venomous snake is to curl up in a ball and hide in the darkness.

Eddie Jones stared at Kobe Bryant, who seemed to be covered with flaws, a little breathless, and his center of gravity shifted slightly forward.

Now is the time! Bryant blocked Eddie Jones' steal with his left hand, slapped the ball forward hard with his right hand, and took a short step to the right.

Eddie Jones couldn't hold his center of gravity after the steal, and Kobe Bryant took advantage of the situation to pull away with him.

Damn, you shouldn't be presumptuous. Eddie Jones regretted something.

Kobe Bryant, who cut into the middle distance, jumped up gently. Campbell pounced, but he couldn't make up for it! The basketball draws a perfect parabola and falls into the hoop.

"Toot! The goal is valid, plus a penalty kick! "Lambis whistled.

"Good shot!" The teammates were originally a little shocked by Eddie Jones's counterattack, but they immediately stabilized their minds after the ball, but they have Kobe Bryant to rely on!

The star's singles have such an inspiring effect, and the singles may not be the most efficient tactics of a team, but they will always be indispensable.

Stand up when the team needs you. Under the opponent's strict defense, he still hit the shot. That's what superstarry is.

Players are not machines, and when Kobe Bryant plays this kind of ball, the mentality of both sides is bound to suffer.

Bruce Bowen and Fisher immediately stepped forward to pull up Kobe, who was knocked to the ground by Campbell. Slapping the non-existent dust of his jersey and screaming in celebration of the 2+1.

Kobe Bryant's face was grim, he had hit countless shots like this, and it was just a small scene for him, and he hit the free throw steadily.

Van Exel didn't come on his own, hoisting the ball inside after half-time. Campbell pressed Tyrese Knight and turned around to score with a hook shot before Ben Wallace could put the defense into place.

After adjusting the tactics in the starting line and taking the interior as the main point of attack, Ben Wallace and Tyrese Knight both had some ways to take Campbell, the interior line and low post skills in this era are very good, and Ben Wallace and Tyrese Knight have no experience in defending such players.

"Ben Wallace goes around! Tyrese shrinks to prevent Corey from cutting Bronte. "Kobe adjusted his tactics in time, and he knew that if he didn't adjust the interior line, he would be beaten into a sieve.

After the adjustment, Campbell's difficulty in receiving the ball and attacking difficulty have increased greatly, and it is difficult to have a comfortable receiving space under the fast movement and strong bounce of the big Ben around the front defense. Even if he relies on his height to forcibly hold the ball, he will face Tyrese's interior defense after consuming too much time.

"This kid has become a coach on the field." Lambis didn't tell Harris about Kobe's tactics in the summer league, and Harris first saw Kobe's ability to understand tactics, and Harris found that Kobe Bryant was always quick to identify problems and come up with solutions.

The game was deadlocked, and Bryant, under the full support of Eddie Jones, could only get some ordinary shooting opportunities in the middle and long distance, and could not score consistently and efficiently.

On the side of the starting team, they still can't find an efficient way to score, as if every hole is blocked.
