The Next Magician? Or the next Chamberlain! 》

After the victory over the Grizzlies on January 14, Kobe Bryant, a rookie, has scored 40+ for the third consecutive game!

We also used to compare Kobe Bryant to Magic in November and December at the beginning of the season. The same position, the same team, the same super center as a teammate. But one thing we're discovering more and more is that Kobe Bryant is definitely not the next magician!

At the start of the season, Bryant showed his brilliant playmaking skills and lethality in key moments. It may make people feel like he's going to be a point guard like Magic, controlling the ball and controlling the game. Fill your own data column with all kinds of statistics, although it is not eye-catching, but it is everywhere in the game!

Kobe Bryant has gradually changed people's perception of him with key shots again and again, he is not just a traditional point guard standing by O'Neal's side, he has all the ingredients to become a superstar, and at the age of 18, Kobe Bryant has done far more than most players in the league.

In the period from the end of December to the beginning of January, Bryant first scored the legendary 55 points against fellow champion Allen Iverson, and then seemed to open up his own attack mode. This game made everyone in the league start to get to know Kobe Bryant again, and his limit is not only a top playmaker!

At present, it confirms the speculation of the media! Winning 40+ in three games in a row, which is something that even rookie Jordan has never done! Such performances have led to comparisons between him and the best scorers of all time.

Jordan's performance in his rookie season was also phenomenal, and throughout his rookie season, he scored a total of 7 40+ times, including 49 points, 15 rebounds, 5 steals and 4 blocks against the Pistons, which was the highest score in his rookie season, and that season, he averaged 28.2 points per game to beat Olajuwon, Stockton and other players to win the best rookie.

Chamberlain, he was a sports all-rounder, because in addition to basketball, he reached the level of a professional player in sprinting, high jump, volleyball and other sports, in those days, players like him were almost unstoppable, except for the obvious advantage of height, his athleticism and physical fitness were ahead of the league. Throughout his rookie season, he scored 32 40+ times, with the highest score being 58.

It can be said that in terms of scoring alone, Jordan and Chamberlain are the strongest rookies in history!

And what about Kobe? Halfway through the season, he's already scored 6 40+ points, including a 55 on one occasion! It's only a matter of time before the highest score surpasses Jordan, and the 40+ numbers surpass Jordan! His current scoring average is 26.8 points per game, which may not be as good as Chamberlain and not as good as Jordan.

But this is the stat played with a super center like O'Neill by his side! The first thing he thinks about is to make O'Neal play comfortable, and the second thing is to think about his own score, Kobe Bryant is the team's No. 2 man to get this statistic, which is very amazing!

It is not difficult to see that as long as he wants to score, his scoring explosiveness is no weaker than Jordan and Chamberlain!

At every critical moment in the game, Kobe's takeover of the game makes the opposing fans feel frightened and makes their own fans enthusiastic, this is Kobe's lethality!

Many people used to lament that they didn't see the birth of superstars, but now you have a chance.

A new legend is on the rise! 6 times 40+, I believe it is by no means Kobe's limit. Please focus on the Lakers' next games, because a rookie like Kobe Bryant is definitely a once-in-a-decade game.

Miss this string of performances, and we don't know how long we'll have to wait to see the next rookie like Kobe.

Besides, is Kobe's 40+ journey ending like this? The next game is their old enemy, the Portland Trail Blazers, and fans can expect Kobe's performance in this game.

"Is the Lakers' king bomb the biggest rival of the Chicago Bulls to win the championship? 》

After Michael Jordan led his Bulls to 72 wins in the 95-96 season, everyone knew that this Bulls were the strongest in history. They also lived up to expectations and swept their opponents all the way to get Jordan's fourth championship trophy.

This year's Chicago Bulls maintained the entire roster of the 72-win winning roster and even signed Chiefs Robert Parrish to take the inside line. The team from top to bottom thought the championship was in their pocket.

If Jordan wins his fifth championship, he will surely surpass Magic Johnson and become the all-time first man on the guard line.

The league will not tolerate this kind of thing, Houston put together a big three lineup, the SuperSonics kept the entire team of the Western Conference champions, the Jazz played the most perfect blocking and pick-and-roll tactics, Jordan's successor Grant Hill also played the same level of performance as Jordan in the early years, etc.

But the Los Angeles Lakers have become the biggest spoilers, which no one expected. It wasn't just Shaq O'Neal who brought the team victory, as this game against the Grizzlies proved.

Bryant had 43 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 7 steals and 3 blocks, and O'Neal had 41 points and 24 rebounds.

The two men handled almost all of the team's offense while playing top scoring efficiency.

This is enough to prove that Shaq and Kobe Bryant are both players who have the ability to change the normal game.

And in the battle for the top spot in the league in December, the Lakers also defeated the Chicago Bulls.

If the Lakers twin continue to perform like this, can we understand that the Los Angeles Lakers are the team most capable of ending Jordan's championship dream?
