Chapter 352: The strongest singles player in history

On April 6, 1997, the Lakers played three consecutive home games against the Dallas Mavericks at the Great Western Forum Arena.

It was O'Neill's second game since his return.

Under the legendary jerseys hanging high above the Great Western Forum Arena, the Lakers once again brought fans an extremely amazing game.

The existence of the OK combination is mainly O, supplemented by K at the beginning of the season. And when O'Neal was out injured for two months, Kobe Bryant's body was enough for him to perform 90% of the technical moves in his peak! Kobe Bryant's face-frame singles skills can be fully exerted, except for some back-to-body skills that rely on weight and strength to be performed, after a season of training, Kobe Bryant has fully adapted to his young body.

Pinnacle Kobe! But the existence of the only file in the alliance! In the two seasons of 05-07, Kobe Bryant was isolated, and when he carried the team alone, he averaged more than 11 singles per game! More than 12 times in that season with 81 points! What's even more terrifying, in the 06-07 season, Kobe Bryant averaged more than 11 singles per game, and he could score 1.08 points each time! In the 06-07 season, Kobe Bryant's singles in the face frame accounted for 38.4% of all offensive proportions! Back singles is 8.3%, for a total of 46.7%.

What kind of concept is this, half of Kobe's offense at his peak is a face frame! And the most difficult one-on-one is the most efficient way for him to play!

The 2019 champion singled out Leonard on the first wing for 17.6 percent of his singles and scored 0.95 points per round.

League singles champion Irving has a 21.4% singles percentage.

The Chosen One, LeBron James, has a singles percentage of 20.3 percent.

After Kobe, Bryant's first quarterback, Harden, was 23.7%.

Anthony is 23.1%.

It can be said that Kobe's noodle frame singles ability is epoch-making! Both in terms of production and quantity.

The face frame includes three ways to handle the ball, throwing, breaking, and passing.

When it comes to projection alone, Kobe Bryant's skills in difficult shots are even better than Michael Jordan's. His skill swings have made opposing defenders dance like marionettes on many occasions.

Breaking through this, Kobe Bryant's breakthrough acceleration and absolute speed are not the best in the league. There are a whole bunch of allies who are faster than him! But Kobe Bryant is able to break through!

This season, in addition to Houston, SuperSonics, and the Bulls, these are definitely strong defensive teams. No team has yet been able to defend against Kobe's breakthrough! Kobe Bryant's combination of rhythm change and sudden shooting is perfect, and it can be said that Kobe's breakthrough is more of a technical flow than a physical flow, which allows him to use his ball control skills and rhythm changes to break through before his physical fitness reaches its peak.

Passing, it's not that hard. Bryant wasn't the kind of team commander type passer who used the ball to guide his teammates. Like Kidd, like Paul he can't pass the ball. He can't just lead the team with his passes.

But he didn't have to, and Bryant's preferred way was to get the opponent's attention by attacking and then distribute the ball to the players in the open space. This kind of passing is no less threatening than Kidd and Paul's ball leaders, and it doesn't require a lot of passing ability and skill, as long as you can observe the rotation of the opposing defense with excellent vision before the package is formed, and pass the ball out.

This season, Bryant's organizational ability is undoubtedly a step further than his peak, directly playing the role of point guard, allowing his ball handling ability to be honed and strengthened.

It can be said that in terms of singles in the face frame, in the 50-year history of the league, the only person who can be stronger than Kobe Bryant may be Michael Jordan, the god of basketball.

Michael Jordan's face frame singles are more frequent than Kobe!

In the 90-92 season, Jordan of the Flyers, in his first three-game trifecta, had an 8% higher percentage of singles than Kobe Bryant and a 7% higher percentage of back-to-back singles. The total singles ratio is as high as 60%, MJ's average singles rounds per game is 12.6, Harden's singles in the 2019-2020 season is 10, and Kobe's singles in the 06 season is 12.2.

Throughout the history of the league, only Michael Jordan's face frame has been able to slightly suppress Kobe Bryant in terms of numbers and shooting percentage.

But that's Kobe Bryant from the previous life!

In this life, Kobe Bryant will use a stronger body and better passing ability to challenge Michael Jordan's supremacy.

And this regular season game with the Dallas Mavericks was a game in which Kobe Bryant tried to dominate the offense.

"Solo show! Kobe Bryant's game seems to be a rehearsal for the game against the Jazz! He single-handedly blew up the entire outside herd of the Dallas Mavericks! ”

"Michael Finley 6 fouled!"

"Derek Harper was shaken to the ground!"

"Woshan Leonard was beaten by Kobe Bryant unlimited single***!"

"Unsolvable offensive performance, following the twin stars shining in the last game, Kobe Bryant in this game proved that he alone is enough to break a team!"

"It's clear that Shaq is still looking for form! And Bryant began to feed Shaq like crazy! Kobe Bryant tore through the defense, attracted 2 or 3 people to the bag, and then threw the ball into the gap between the people! Shaq Unlimited Supply Baskets! ”

Refreshing! O'Neill's current feeling is only one word - transparent!

Catch the ball unguarded, and then dunk under the basket, and you have face! It's much easier than pouting your ass and arching a strong man for a long time, and then turning around and buckling violently!

Bryant first attacked the torn defense with the noodle frame, and then fed the pie to O'Neal's mouth! In such a situation, it is too easy for O'Neal to score on a team of the Mavericks' level.

"Win! The Lakers easily walked away with the win of this game! ”

"It's too easy, and the calf doesn't have the ability to resist at all."

'Normal, that's the strength of a historic team, as long as they don't have problems with their own form, it's hard for them to lose against these teams.

The end of the game is 87:112 Lakers.

Bryant scored a game-high 27 points, 8 rebounds and 14 assists, and nearly cut a big triple-double.

O'Neal played 25 minutes, 23 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks, and Harris saw that the victory was in his hands, so he let O'Neal, who had returned from injury, go off the court in advance.

The Twin Stars have combined to score 50 points again, and the storm of the OK combination has completely begun. This time, they're more of a threat than the Lakers team they started the season, plus the addition of a roster of reins and the growth of rookie players. Bryant believes that the current Lakers team is fully capable of wrestling with the Bulls.

The Lakers won three straight home games to push their record to 67-8.

Next, they will play the San Francisco Warriors on April 8 and the Utah Jazz on April 9.

Face two strong opponents back-to-back!

The Warriors' madmen Sprewell, Joe Smith, Chris Mullin, even if they didn't make the playoffs this season. But they are definitely not a weak team, and a plot like a bullet killing a bull is very likely.

The next day, they will fly to Utah and face back-to-back games against the Jazz, who are second in the West and are currently in great form.

The Lakers' upcoming schedule is very difficult!
