Chapter 18: Summer League Ends

It's been a week since the game against China, and Bryant led the team to two wins in the next two Summer League games. After playing four excellent performances, he gradually gained the first group of fans.

In the third summer league game, Kobe Bryant started with a cold hand and missed consecutive shots.

But the Lakers' pressing and defensive counter-attacking tactics are still impactful. The defense line under Kobe Bryant is impregnable, and Kobe Bryant is like a sharp blade stabbing the opponent's heart in the fast attack.

Pure defense is useless, and Kobe's role for the team is to be able to convert successful defense into counterattacks, and this style of play has allowed the Lakers' defense to initially establish dominance in the summer league.

In the positional battle, Kobe Bryant, who had a bad hand, acted more as an initiator in the offense, holding the ball to block and dismantle, and after breaking through, Kobe Bryant did not force it but chose to jump up and distribute the ball outside.

The group of Lakers shooters who played abnormally against the Chinese team seemed to have opened their minds in this game, catching Kobe's balls and shooting them into the basket one after another. Fisher was 3-of-7 from three-point range and Bruce Bowen was 4-of-8 from three-point range.

Their stellar performance also created plenty of space for the team's offense, and the warm-hearted Kobe Bryant hit the basket in the third quarter, twisting in the air and throwing the ball into the basket. The Lakers also won a game comfortably from a defender who took care of the other.

Bryant scored 21 points in this game, but he had 11 assists in possession.

In Game 4, the Lakers played against the Phoenix Suns.

After Kobe Bryant started the game with two consecutive three-pointers, he realized that his hand was hot today, and he decided to attack it himself in this game!

Bryant dominated the ball in the first half, first holding the ball to block the attack, and with the help of high-quality screens from Ben Wallace and Tyrese, he made a jump shot after gaining space.

After the opponent adopted a trap defense, Bryant switched to an off-ball offense, an empty cut, and a three-point attack. Catching Fisher's pass, Kobe Bryant seemed to be unable to stop, hitting difficult shots one after another.

At the beginning of the second half, the Phoenix Suns could only strengthen the aggressiveness of the defense, and although the tough defense limited Kobe's shooting rate, it created a lot of free throw opportunities for Kobe, and Kobe made every free throw steadily.

Another easy three-quarter clock-out, Bryant played super efficient, 13-of-19, including 6-of-8 three-pointers and 9-of-9 free throws. Easily cut 41 points.

The summer league is over, the championship is successfully won, and Kobe Bryant, who returns to his Los Angeles apartment, has a familiar voice in his ears.

"Ding."

"Restart Life Side 1: Winning the Summer League Championship Complete"

"When the host asks a question, does it replace the elevation with an answer to the question?"

"Of course! Tell me, where did Gianna go? Kobe Bryant had finally waited for that day, and he was desperately worried about Gianna's safety. The daughter who inherited his mamba's will was the love of his heart, and Koho thought about Gianna every day after he was born, and what would the story be if they hadn't been on that plane that day?

Gianna Bryant was born on May 2, 2006. On January 26, 2020, Gianna died in a helicopter crash in California at the age of 13. "The emotionless voice of the system came.

"Fack, I'm sitting next to her, I want to ask, is there no way to save her?" Bryant was a little anxious.

"..... in Analysis"

"Answer: After the host completes the main quest of life restart, the system can be transferred to any one person to use. After completing the Life S+ achievement, the host can restart Gianna's life. ”

“YSE! That's great! Kobe Bryant cheered with great joy and sorrow. The things that have been worried about have finally been solved, so for the sake of his daughter, in order to reborn his daughter, Kobe Bryant must also make enough achievements! Is S+ human generation all that? The achievement of 5 championships in the last life is S-, so in this life, how many championships do I have to win to make Gianna reborn? Anyway, the more the merrier, Kobe Bryant is ready.

The night in Los Angeles was shining neon, sitting on the street blowing the summer wind, Kobe Bryant couldn't help but wonder, so who was it that restarted my life?

。。。。。。。

Bryant, who scored a total of 124 points in four games, didn't attract much attention from the basketball press. Because at this time, the "Dream Three" team has been successfully formed, aiming for the men's basketball championship of the Atlanta Olympics.

After the biggest name of the game, Michael Jordan, politely declined, the Dream Team did not lose its luster. Although the stars on the team are not as dazzling as the Dream Team 1, the Dream Team 3 has almost all the superstars in the league who are in their prime, including five MVP-level players, and the lineup is still very luxurious.

The Dream Three team includes the three major centers of the year, Hakim Olajuwon, David Robinson, and Shaq O'Neal, plus the world's recognized best power forwards Karl Malone and Charles Barkley, and the manpower and combat power in the restricted area are better than those of the 1992 team.

The perimeter players are made up of pennie Anfernee Hardaway, Grant Hill, Reggie Miller, Scottie Pippen, Gary Payton, Mitch Ridgemond and John Stockton.

The squad is luxurious, and the coach is no slouch. Lenny Wilkens is the head coach of this Dream Three.

He was the first coach in NBA history to win a thousand miles, and he was one of the first players to be a competent player-coach. His playing career was as exciting as his coaching career, and he was one of the representatives of the all-round guard in the late '60s and early '70s, having averaged an astonishing 17 points or more, more than 5 rebounds and 8 assists per game for six consecutive seasons. 15-year career, 20+5+9 per game in the peak season, 9 All-Stars, 1 assist king, one of the top 50 superstars, member of the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame (selected as a player and coach).

Kobe Bryant watched the star players who dominated the game on TV, and he couldn't help but have itchy hands, and he really wanted the season to start quickly and compete with them at the top.

The U.S. team has degenerated to the point where they finished 7th in the Men's Basketball World Cup. Perfectly confirms what Kobe Bryant said, don't think you're stable.

And this dream team seems to be really stable. With so many legends on both ends of the floor to dominate the game, and with legendary coach Lenny Wilkens in the lineup, it's hard for them to mess with themselves.

The result of the game was also as expected by Kobe, and the Dream Three team came out on top at the Atlanta Olympics, winning by more than 20 points in each game.

First, they beat Argentina by 30 points, then Angola by 33 points and Lithuania by 22 points.

In the final group game, the United States defeated the Chinese men's basketball team 133-70 with a score of China.
