Chapter 223: The Best Regular Season of the Year

"Mistake! Bowen's pass is tackled by Pippen! Counterattack! The Bulls' fast-break counterattack! ”

"Mobile cover! Ben Wallace's pick-and-roll was whistled for a foul! Ben Wallace was not surprised, he was very dissatisfied with the referee's decision! Kobe Bryant grabbed him! ”

"Strike iron! Campbell's third shot of the fourth quarter still missed! After Rodman defended Campbell, Campbell's magic was no longer there, and he was reduced to that mediocre player again! ”

"The Lakers are in a crisis!"

"The rest of the Lakers' players have a problem in their mental state, they are pressed by the strong momentum of the Bulls!"

"A series of mistakes, the iron was seized by the bulls and played a wave of 12:0 climax!"

"Kobe's face is very ugly."

"Kobe Bryant is one of the few players on the Lakers court who maintains a positive mentality!"

"He's attacking non-stop, as if he wants to use his performance to motivate his teammates."

"Kobe Bryant made the Bulls play their strongest form, and the Bulls in such a state, there is no doubt about it! Their outside defense is the first in history! ”

"Kobe Bryant buried his head in the breakthrough, hit the inside line, Pippen and Rodman wrapped it up at the same time!"

"Three-man flank!"

"Lost the ball! Bryant was cut off from behind by Michael. ”

"It's a counterattack again! Jordan has already dunked four in the fourth quarter! The Lakers' retreat seems so slow! ”

"Kobe Bryant keeps attacking! He chose to pull out two steps outside the three! ”

"In! Hit the Lakers' first goal of the fourth quarter! ”

"Bulls 86:79 Lakers."

"Michael singles out Kobe! He also opted for three points! Jordan responded to Kobe Bryant with his worst offensive method! ”

"Enter! Michael responded to Kobe! ”

"It's amazing, it's the best regular season game of the year." The Magic sighed for a long time, but unfortunately the winner of such a wonderful game was not the Lakers.

Under the super pressure of the Bulls, the Lakers players made frequent mistakes in the fourth quarter.

There's a reason for the Bulls, and there's a reason why they've been expending a lot of energy with full-court pressing.

In the fourth quarter, the Lakers finally collapsed across the board.

Michael Jordan scored 21 points in a single quarter, four dunks and two three-pointers. He dominated and took over the final game.

Chicago Bulls 106:90 Los Angeles Lakers.

It was the final score and the game was over.

Bryant played 41 minutes and scored 39 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks and 5 turnovers.

Jordan played 39 minutes and scored 45 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals and 2 turnovers.

Campbell had 28 points and nine rebounds.

Pippen had 19 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 6 turnovers, and shot just 40 percent from the field.

"From the beginning to the end, the whole process is high-energy, and there is not a minute of garbage time. The battle of superstars, the game of coaches, and the hard work of role players. All of this makes this game great. ”

"Today's Bulls are even better than the Bulls in last year's Finals, and Kobe Bryant and the Lakers pushed the Bulls to their limits."

"It's great that the Lakers can play with such a Bull and not fall behind in three quarters."

"Kobe Bryant is proud of defeat, playing with Michael in the first quarter, making Pippen look like a clown in the third quarter, and being surrounded by the Bulls in the fourth quarter, he still looks like the player the Lakers want to win the most."

Michael found Kobe, the two of them hugged each other, and Michael whispered something in Kobe's ear.

Bryant exited the court with cheers and encouragement from the fans at the Great Western Forum Arena.

"The next time the Lakers and Bulls fight, it may be on the stage of the Finals."

......

Defeated, defeated.

Bryant returned to the locker room and let out a sullen breath.

Lost the foreknowledge of tactical movement, lost O'Neal as a pillar on the inside.

Kobe Bryant lost to Jordan both in terms of his own performance and the performance of leading the team.

Jordan, who paddled in both the second and third quarters, stepped up in the fourth quarter and scored 21 points with a magical performance of nine of twelve shots in a single quarter.

Kobe, who fought with Pippen for a whole quarter in the third quarter, faced Jordan and the Bulls in the crucial fourth quarter, and scored only 9 points on 3-of-11 shooting.

The fiasco, Kobe's dullness also put the Lakers' locker room into silence.

Their performance in the fourth quarter was terrible.

Can't attack! Can't prevent it!

Bryant drew the bag and passed them to shoot in the open space, but they still couldn't score.

The Lakers rookies who have had a smooth ride this season have experienced such a high-intensity confrontation for the first time, and their performance has made them a little ashamed.

Kobe Bryant looked around, if it was the previous life, he would angrily throw his face at his teammates and scold.

And now, he's more sane.

"Practice today, practice all night!"

......

The game is over, but the turmoil is far from over.

"The change of the league's number one? 》

The Bulls yesterday dealt a heavy blow to the Los Angeles Lakers, led by Kobe Bryant, as the league's No. 1 Lakers suffered their fifth loss of the season.

At the end of the game, the Bulls are currently 43-6 and the Lakers are 41-5. The two league leaders are almost evenly matched.

Next, before O'Neal returns, Kobe Bryant will need to lead the team alone for nearly two months. I believe the Bulls will soon be able to overtake the Lakers and regain the No. 1 spot in the league.

The Bulls showed the depth of their roster, the dominance of their stars, and the subtlety of their coaches.

There is no doubt that this is a team at the level of a dynasty. Their goal is a second triple in a row, and the Lakers are bound to be their biggest rivals on this road to the title.

Kobe Bryant is a phenomenal rookie, and his appearance has given the Lakers the capital to compete with the Bulls.

But now Kobe, I don't think he can lead the team alone and still maintain the No. 1 record in the league.

After Shaq's return, the Lakers' record will drop to third or fourth in the West, which is their normal level.

"The Greatest Regular Season of the Year"

The stage of superstars is the playoffs, and with 82 regular season games per team each year, there are very few games that can impress us.

And today's game between the Bulls and the Lakers was neither overtime nor a shutout. This game is bound to be the best regular season of the year.

Kobe Bryant single-handedly blew up the Bulls in the first three quarters, just look at his teammates. Of the four starters, two of them were undrafted rookies.

Michael Jordan, while still great, relied on the team's physical advantage in the third quarter to finally close the game in the fourth quarter. It turns out that the current Kobe Bryant is enough to wrestle with Jordan.

The matchup of the top teams is by no means defender against defender, striker against striker, and every player defends his opponent and everything is fine.

Zen master Phil Jackson and Silver Fox Del Harris have textbook mismatch defense, allowing players in different positions to defend different opponents at different times.

Such a tactical position adjustment is enough to be called great.

In addition to superstars and coaches, the role players also played very well.

Such a climactic game is bound to be selected as the best regular season of the year.
