Chapter 391: Third Playoff Debut Triple-Double in History!! (3K, ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month!) )
Richmond buried his head in the breakthrough, and Kobe's strength was definitely inferior to his, and Kobe Bryant continued to slide back.
While retreating, Kobe Bryant paid great attention to Richmond's pull-up jump shot, you must know that Richmond's projection ability is very strong, in such an iron-blooded era, even a breakthrough master like Hill is unlikely to score an average of 25.9 points per game when his teammates do not create enough offensive space.
Richmond has a very handsome pull-up jump shot, and Kobe Bryant knows this. Many people were shocked by Richmond's physique, which led them to blindly step backwards, and were finally crushed by Richmond's sudden mid-range pull-up jump shot.
Kobe Bryant stuck to Richmond, maintaining a position that could interfere with shooting while not being passed by Richmond, and this defensive distance was controlled by no more than five players in the league who could have this ability. This is also the reason why there is a lot of clamor in the media that Kobe Bryant should be on the league's best defensive team for a while.
Suddenly!
Stop!
Burst again!
Richmond tried to find a shot several times in a row, but he didn't get rid of Kobe.
Damn it! No matter! Rushed!
Richmond's brain was hot, and he remembered Kobe's provocation, and a fierce man hit Kobe Bryant to the Lakers' basket.
Three-step pilling! Directly crushed Kobe Bryant and was about to go to the basket!
"Smack!" The moment Bryant picked up the ball in Richmond, his hand was on the ball. Bryant's sense of distance allowed him to pull off a brilliant clean defense.
“MOTHERF*KER!” Richmond clapped his hands and chased after the basketball that had been stabbed.
And Bowen seemed to have been prepared, and directly picked up the basketball that was stabbed by Kobe. Holding it in his arms, he did not choose to advance, but turned sideways to avoid Richmond's pressing, waiting for the situation to be clear before handing it over to Eddie Jones.
"Wonderful! Wonderful defense! The Lakers' youngsters don't play like rookies at all! Kobe Bryant's eyes are fast, Bowen's calm and composed! Can you believe this is their first game? "The Magic was amazed by Kobe's wonderful one-man defense and Bowen's calm handling of the ball.
"MAGIC: Do you remember your playoff debut?"
"Me?" The magician smiled.
"That's right."
"No, I just got 13 points, 12 rebounds and 16 assists." The Magic looked breezy and made a triple-double debut, and only two people in history have done it, the other being McCarthy. But it was pure luck.
Many fans are not familiar with the name, as he was drafted in 1956, and as an ancient player, McCarthy was not a superstar, averaging only 7.8 points and 3.6 rebounds per game in his career. At the time, there were few teams in the league, and he made a good playoff debut, with 13 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists.
Magic's isn't the kind of affordability triple-double yet, a big triple-double of 16 assists is enough to keep everyone in the dust. This is also the reason why before Jordan appeared, Magic was always considered very promising to become the first player in American professional basketball, and Magic's fancy play really led an era.
"Then let's see how Kobe Bryant performs in this game!"
Eddie Jones held the ball across half court and handed it to Bryant. Kobe Bryant didn't stick to the ball too much, and in the first quarter, he had to let his teammates find more form, and he threw it directly inside. O'Neill received the ball in a very comfortable position with a very comfortable movement.
Leaning back, then leaning back, the ball is softly tossed into the basket with one hand.
O'Neal's small throws from the basket are superb, and his touch is too soft. With his back in position, no one can interfere with his small toss or small hooks after turning.
4:0。
Richmond glared at Kobe, damn stinky boy, wouldn't he dare to stand up and duel like a man?
Kobe Bryant simply ignored the angry Richmond, and the more intense his anger became, the more he lost his mind.
"Bruce, Eddie. Look for an opportunity to clip him. ”
"Is it okay to let go of three points?"
'No problem, Richmond has a narrow passing vision.
Richmond's second ball was still singled by Kobe Bryant, and after a few blocks, Kobe simply followed his wishes and switched directly to him.
A bullish rush! Richmond continues to rush strongly!
Bryant stepped back in quick small steps to secure a good defensive position.
Richmond leaned sideways and sank his shoulders, and his ball protector pushed Bryant straight away.
While pushing, he didn't notice that Bruce Bowen on the side had quietly leaned in, and took advantage of Richmond's strength to force and directly stepped forward to grab.
"Oops!" Richmond secretly said that something was wrong, and he stopped the ball when he was caught in the bag.
In a hurry, he hurriedly looked up to observe the position of his teammates, dodged Kobe's pressing, and threw the ball to the side of Owens in the open position.
It's a pity it's too slow!
Eddie Jones has been waiting for Richmond to pass the ball! Instant rotation! Take a straight step to grab the ball.
Aggro!
Attack fast and fight back!
Eddie Jones pushed into the front court and didn't look!
Throw the ball high into the air!
And a player with the No. 8 purple and gold jersey has taken to the air!
Stuck in the air! Twist the waist!
Pull the ball back with one hand and smash it into the hoop with a tomahawk!
“WTF! What I saw! Eddie Jones doesn't look at people passing, Kobe Bryant relays a tomahawk in the air! ”
"Perfect bounce and stuck! Kobe's dunk is another move that can score a perfect score in the slam dunk contest! ”
"Mickey, you'd better go back to Disneyland in Orlando. Indeed, the Lakers can consider the next round of opponents! ”
The enthusiasm of the Great Western Forum Arena was instantly ignited by this counterattack!
Burn!
Amid the cheers, Kings coach Eddie Jordan called a timeout.
"Fack! None of you can give Mickey a little support? ”
"Mickey! Run! You're not a player who can only attack with the ball, integrate your offense into the team! ”
"What about the pick-and-roll? What about tactics? What about defense? Who do you expect to lead you to this game? ”
Eddie Jordan scolded the Kings players to the ground.
But there is still no way to stop the decline.
The Lakers launched an exaggerated attack wave of 17:32 in the first quarter.
Kobe Bryant's offensive organization grasped it with one hand, firmly controlled the Lakers' offensive rhythm, and scored 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting while allowing his teammates to integrate into the offense.
In the second quarter, Richmond gritted his teeth and did not take a break, and directly decided to play the whole game. The Kings caught up a little bit, and the Lakers' bench didn't feel good in this game, perhaps because the playoff confrontation was too fierce and the pitchers were not in good shape.
Half time 54:63 Lakers.
In the third quarter, Bryant took over with a straight sword.
Chasing Richmond ball by ball, 8 of 8 in a single quarter! Score 21 points! Only a foul can stop Kobe.
"Damn it! Damn it! Why can't you prevent it! "Richmond tried his best to defend Kobe Bryant, but to no avail, Bryant always found a move to create enough space to shoot, and then shot the ball into the basket with one difficult shot after another.
At the same time, Richmond found that it was not the Lakers' rookie who was out of shape in the playoffs, not Kobe.
Rather—MYSELF ...
Richmond is locked up!
Section 3! The three-man defense line composed of Kobe, Jones and Bowen directly made Richmond lose the opportunity to attack!
Attacks! Endless pinching!
Close-fitting pressing plus pinching! Weak side chase! Strong side bag clip!
The Lakers' defense is very targeted, that is, playing Richmond's pass vision is not good, or you face Bowen dry, and if you want to break through the first time, someone will come forward to wrap up.
And the defenders who defend him are the future best defensive team players, and Richmond really can't bear this treatment alone.
"Scum! I said that Richmond is a scumbag, he is far worse than Kobe! Curry shook his head and acted as a mascot to a crowd of Lakers fans. And the director shot also cut to the three people of Los Angeles Elementary School in a row. The three cute babies played treasure to add a lot of warm colors to the game.
Bryant found himself with seven rebounds at the end of the third quarter, and his assists had double-doubled to 10.
Teammates began to get stuck in positions intentionally or unintentionally, giving up rebounds to Kobe.
In the end, Bryant grabbed his tenth rebound with six minutes left in the game.
Three pairs!
Triple-double in the third playoff debut in history!
Harris then moved Bryant off the court.
"Three pairs! Bryant got his tenth rebound! Incredible! Incredible performance, incredible triple-double! The Magic blushed, and he couldn't believe that in his lifetime, he would be able to see a Lakers player in the Great Western Forum Arena again score a triple-double in the first playoff game of his career.
Scoring and assists weren't a problem for Bryant. And the rebound was finally obtained after Kobe Bryant worked hard and conceded the ball with his teammates in consecutive positions!
Cheers from all over the sky! The Great Western Forum Arena welcomed a player with his second playoff debut after the Magic, a triple-double!!
And unlike Magic and McCarthy! Kobe's triple-double is 30+10+10! Instead of 10+10+10! It means that Kobe Bryant is not acting as a tool man, but self-offense and the team's offense! He helped the team the most while scoring like crazy, and he had six assists for O'Neal alone in this game. Without O'Neal, he wouldn't have been able to get a triple-double so easily.
O'Neal's excellent play helped the defenders with the naked eye! The Kings were forced to put troops to the basket, and this gave Kobe Bryant unlimited offensive opportunities.
The game ended, Kings 87:121 Lakers.
Victory!
Kobe Bryant's playoff debut! Played 32 minutes, 13-of-21, 7-of-8 free throws, scored 37 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks and 4 turnovers!
Richmond was 6-of-18 from the field, with 15 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 7 turnovers!
O'Neal had 28 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks.
Slaughter!
The Lakers Twin Stars slaughtered the King directly!
The Kings believed that Richmond could handle Kobe Bryant alone, and Kobe Bryant responded with a 30+10+10 triple-double!
What a superstar! That's what a superstar is!
What a legend!
Kobe Bryant is a legend!
