Chapter Forty-Eight: The Scoring King's Rivalry!
"Rick, congratulations on your election as coach of the 76ers, these lads are very talented." Bryant and Iverson were glaring at each other, and the coaches off the court were greeting each other again.
"yes, they're very talented. Hopefully I can make the talent of this team realize. Adelman looked at the Philadelphia players on the court and felt the difference between this 76ers team and last year's Warriors.
"Coach, you can do it." An old disciple of Adelman, Mullin gave his former coach an affirmative look. In Mullin's view, the Warriors' collapse was entirely the work of a few thorns, and had nothing to do with the head coach.
If it weren't for Chris Weber's unruliness, if it weren't for the madman Sprewell's heart is higher than the sky and his fate is better than paper, then the Warriors would have been a super strong team a long time ago!
"Looks like we've got a super defender on the bar."
Kobe Bryant received O'Neal's jump ball and dribbled the ball across the half court, as if he didn't hesitate at all, and directly ** Starkhouse!
In the exclamation of Philadelphia, he got the first score of the opening game!
And Iverson also used color, under Kobe's tight defense, he steadily controlled the ball and dribbled through the half, if it wasn't for Kobe Bryant's early retreat, Iverson would even break up Kobe's pressing directly!
Iverson didn't stick to the ball at all, and when he handed it to Odom, he ran like crazy!
Kobe Bryant and Iverson played cat and mouse!
Iverson suddenly ran back, pulled outside the three-point line, and shot Kobe Bryant with the same three points!
Also in color!
ANSWERBALL!
"Wow!"
“A! I!A! I!A! I!”
"Allen, kill Kobe! You're the top scorer! ”
Iverson's energetic three-pointer scared Kobe Bryant!
That's not how Iverson played in the previous life!
Bryant's understanding of Iverson is that he is a bayonet-type scorer who desperately breaks through, blocks and cuts with the ball, and runs without the ball and shoots from mid-range. Although the shooting rate is not necessarily high, the ball swallowing rate is historic, and no one can stop it when it feels good.
This opening game started with a three-pointer without the ball!?
This style of play is completely different from the previous life, and Kobe Bryant's choice of offensive line that knows Iverson well also has problems!
The current AI offensive movement has changed too much!
Is this Princeton's bonus to Iverson?
Interesting!
It's no wonder that Season 2 was able to hit such quasi-superstar-level stats!
It seems that Larry Brown's use of AI is completely wrong, and AI is suitable for being the strongest offensive arrow under Princeton!
Kobe Bryant's fighting spirit and Iverson's strength made Kobe's desire to win even stronger!
Singled out!
Endless heads-up!
Iverson plays efficiently off the ball under Princeton.
And Kobe Bryant, with his inexplicable offensive skills, directly holds the ball!
One with the ball, one without the ball!
The two put on the biggest scoring show of the season!
"This is the first time I've seen a player shoot in front of Kobe Bryant like this!"
"Kobe's defensive pressing didn't seem to make Iverson feel uncomfortable in the slightest! In the face of the strongest defensive player in the American professional basketball league this season, Iverson still regards defense as nothing! ”
One of the reasons why Kobe Bryant's defense is so strong is that Kobe Bryant's familiarity with opposing players. He knows almost every outside star in the league. What characteristics, how to choose the offensive line, where the efficiency is high, and where the iron Kobe has a good idea in his heart!
Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles!
Iverson's change made Kobe lose this kind of foresight, and his defensive prediction of Iverson was not so accurate.
But Kobe Bryant is quickly adapting to Iverson's style of play, and the AI in today's god-killing state is simply unsolvable!
If Kobe Bryant is asked to find a template for the future, then the current AI should be a combination of Curry and Wei Shao!
Three points without a solution plus a breakthrough without a solution!
How to prevent it?
Kobe Bryant is thinking!
So far, Iverson and Jordan are the only two players he has come across, who can score crazy points on his head! Although they were only able to play such a performance in the state of their supernatural hands, Iverson's scoring explosion can be seen!
I thought about it for a long time, but there was no result! It's not a place to think!
Analyze it after the game!
That's okay!
Boom!
Offense is the best defense!
"Kobe and Iverson are going crazy to cut points!"
"Boom! Beautiful jumpers, fancy layups! Two people cut down points that other players couldn't match! ”
"The Lakers and Philadelphia players have given the stage to Kobe Bryant and Iverson!"
"In the half, Kobe Bryant scored 27 points on 9-of-17 shooting, and Iverson scored 23 points on 8-of-20 shooting!"
"Lakers 51:45 Philadelphia!"
"The second half is on! Everyone thought the two players would take a break, but they didn't! Keep scoring! ”
"The physical abilities of two people seem endless!"
"Speed! Agile! Strength! Will! The two players showed us how different they are from the rest of the world! ”
"This is the strongest twin star of the 96 generation!"
Kobe Bryant and Iverson are also sweating!
But their eyes are still sharp!
Kobe Bryant pressed Stackhouse in the middle range to complete the mid-range shot!
Iverson cut the basket in the air, and scored on the board with a difficult pull-up!
Kobe Bryant's rollover jumper!
Iverson three-pointer!
Kobe Bryant breaks through the split dunk!
Iverson steals a dragon!
...
"My goodness, is this really a game between two sophomores? Isn't this two supergiants fighting each other? ”
"It's the first time I've seen a player other than Jordan push Kobe Bryant to such an extent, maybe there are outside players in the league like Penny Hill who are more capable than Iverson, but they won't play like that!"
"Reasonable? From the time Kobe Iverson came on the court, the word reasonable didn't exist! ”
"Kobe Bryant and Iverson are reasonable! Every one of their attacks is justified! ”
"It's time to finish. Alan. With one minute left in the fourth quarter, Bryant stepped back and hit a three-pointer to stretch the margin to 11 points.
The suspense of the game is over.
"It's over! The bell doesn't ring! The game doesn't end there! Iverson said that he would catch the ball and kill the Lakers in the half, shaking off Kobe Bryant's three-point shot!
"I said, it's time to finish."
Bryant received the ball from Horry, shook it past Stackhouse, flew away to Iverson, and made a strong rebound under the basket to dunk Derrick Coleman.
2+1!
Kobe Bryant was expressionless and said to Iverson in cold blood.
Coleman's shocked look, Odom's helplessness, and Iverson's stubbornness make up the final picture.
The game is over.
At the end of the game, the Lakers 117:107 Philadelphia 76ers.
Kobe Bryant cut another 60+!
He shot 23-of-35 from the field, 9-of-13 from three-point range, and finished with 61 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 4 turnovers.
Iverson shot 20-of-42 from the field, including 8-of-15 from three-point range, and finished with 53 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 5 turnovers.
O'Neal doesn't have a strong desire to attack, and he seems to be a little slack after hitting 50+ in the last game, cutting an economic double-double of 21 points and 10 rebounds.
Odom played well, playing with ease against Campbell's defense, scoring 17 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal and 2 turnovers.
60+10!
Kobe Bryant's first such achievement!
