"Who are you here today to see who is playing?"

The reporter asked James.

“sun。”

James scratched his head as he spoke, looking very green.

“sun？ Why not Kobe or O'Neal? That's an OK combination! ”

The reporter asked.

"Yes, they're one of the greatest combinations, but I'm here today to watch Sun play, he went to Los Angeles a year ago to watch me play, and I'm here today to try to bring him a win."

James said with a smile.

If Sun Hao heard this, he would definitely be a little ashamed.

He usually goes to Los Angeles to watch Yi Jianlian play.

However, judging from his previous experience of giving James the nickname, it is not surprising that James was uninvited this time.

"Some people say you're going to be the next Kobe Bryant and go straight to the NBA after high school, what do you think?"

"No, I don't want to be Kobe, I just want to do what he's done, championships, All-stars, Kobe Bryant, LeBron LeBron."

James said with a determined gaze.

Although he is young, he is not small.

"Do you want to be the next sun?"

The reporter asked with a smile.

"No, I want to beat him."

James continued, his eyes shining with anticipation as he said this.

He wants to defeat Sun Hao and reclaim the nickname of the little emperor that belongs to him.

The reporter gave a look of amusement.

It seems that after James enters the league, there will be a new topic in this league.

It's just that I don't know if Sun Hao was already wearing a championship ring on his hand like Kobe Bryant at that time.

ESPN's reporters interviewed James above, and Dallas reporters chatted with Sun Hao below.

After chatting for a while, the reporter walked over to Kobe Bryant opposite.

A daily interview before the game.

Before the game, this reporter asked Kobe Bryant if the Lakers had become weaker.

Bryant accepted the interview with reporters with a smile.

In his opinion, the reporter's question was very helpful in motivating him to fight before the game.

"Some media say that the Lakers can do without Kobe, but they can't do without Shaq, what do you think of this statement?"

But this time, Kobe Bryant quickly put away his smile after listening to it.

"That's."

He replied quickly.

"You've improved a lot of your stats this season, and a lot of people say you're going to replace Shaq as the king of Los Angeles soon, right?"

The reporter then asked.

Kobe Bryant didn't answer this time, just pouted.

But the smile that couldn't be hidden from the corner of his mouth said it all.

The King of Los Angeles, that's exactly what he wants.

After being interviewed by reporters, Kobe Bryant felt comfortable physically and mentally.

His efforts were finally seen by the media, and he was going to be the king of Los Angeles, and he couldn't wait for the process to speed up a little more.

It's just that he may not have guessed that this kind of slapping a candy and fertilizing the forced tree by the way was from Sun Hao's hands.

At the end of the warm-up, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the two teams started one after another.

The Lakers' lineup hasn't changed, Fisher, Kobe, Fox, Walker and O'Neal.

The Mavericks have changed their lineup greatly, Sun Hao, Bell, Finley, Nowitzki, and Battle.

Two of the five starters were replaced, and the fans at the scene who changed the formation were surprised, and Phil Jackson was also surprised.

However, Jackson did not take it lightly like Popovich, but got up vigilantly and rearranged the tactics with the tactical board.

As the coach with the highest championship chances in NBA history, he relies on superstars, but not just superstars.

Not long after, the game was about to begin, and both teams started the game.

Amid the cheers of the fans, O'Neal turned the ball back into the Lakers half court and kicked off the game.

Bryant holds the ball and gives O'Neal inside.

As in past games, the Lakers must have played O'Neal first.

O'Neill didn't know such a small character as Battle, so he turned around and shot directly into it.

This is also the change in his playing style after gaining weight, how to save effort.

But right away, he realized that he had made a mistake.

Battle's strength is not much worse than him.

He didn't exert enough force this time, and he didn't put the ball in it.

And Battle is also very position-conscious, and has been stuck with him to collect defensive rebounds.

There was a burst of cheers from the audience.

Battle, he actually guarded O'Neill!

This player, who was recruited into the team and rarely had a chance to play, actually guarded O'Neal!

Even if it's just one round, it's enough for them to be shocked.

After all, that's O'Neill!

And although Battle moves slowly, he is not slow to react, and he has given the ball to Sun Hao as soon as he wins the rebound.

Sun Hao launched a fast attack, and a wisp of light smoke rushed to the frontcourt, knocking into Fisher and sending the ball into the basket.

2 to 0!

The Mavericks come out on top!

O'Neill was a little unconvinced, and went back to fight Battle.

This time he arched his strength and wanted to knock Battelle away before he could strike.

But Battle's strength was indeed beyond his imagination, he crashed into the air, but the dunk was too strong and the ball flew away.

The ball is exchanged again!

The cheers continued.

O'Neill faced Battle and didn't score in the opening two rounds!

It's kind of incredible.

O'Neill, obviously underestimated.

Then, the Mavericks seized the opportunity.

Although Battle moved slowly, the block was over, and a block blocked Kobe Bryant.

Sun Haodou came out and received a pass from Nowitzki and made a three-point shot.

"Huh!"

Hand up and knife down.

The Mavericks opened the game with a 5-0 lead!

"Dallas! Dallas! ”

The scene was full of momentum, and fans waved and shouted at the same time.

Even James smiled and waved along.

It was an unexpected start to the game.

But soon, O'Neal turned to wipe the board and scored.

If you fight two rounds in a row and continue to do it, it won't be O'Neal or McGee.

Although he wanted to play the game as effortlessly as possible, after finding that it didn't work, O'Neal quickly adjusted.

"Battle, push him out of the three-second zone."

Sun Hao said to Battle at this time.

O'Neal has too many offensive means under the basket, and if he moves to play, Battle can't stop O'Neal.

The Mavericks played again in the frontcourt, with Battle blocking Walker this time, and Nowitzki also had a mid-range shot after receiving a pass from Sun Hao.

The Mavericks scored 7 straight points in the opening game!

Old Nelson's iron man tenderness worked!

Mavericks, want to win!

The Lakers pushed back to the frontcourt, and O'Neal found that Battle wasn't going to give him a place inside.

And when he got to the position, Battle went around the front.

He ended up being forced to catch the ball in the high post and play with his back to the ball.

However, he hit twice as unimpressed as before, and Battle's body was surprisingly wide, and he couldn't pass it with a single turn.

After playing twice, he simply gave up and gave the ball to Kobe Bryant on the outside.

Bryant and O'Neal played together, broke through the return pass, and O'Neal stepped past Battle after receiving the ball and made a force to dunk.

He was uncomfortable by Battle at the beginning, and he took the opportunity to vent.

But just as he was about to get up, Battle's hand rested on his shoulder.

Then, he felt a strong force coming.

In the past, even if he was hanging on to the ball, he could get up and dunk the ball in.

But this time, he couldn't break free of that force, but was pulled backwards, and his body lost its balance and was pulled to the ground directly!

The scene was inexplicably quiet.

"God, he stopped Shaq!"

The narrator exclaimed.

An inside line that may only be known to a few Mavericks fans turned O'Neal overturned!

Although it was a foul, O'Neal was fouled more often, and dunks were more often hung up.

Then, he was now overturned.

And it doesn't look like it's unprepared, it's that it's ready and up, and it's being pulled down alive!

Immediately, there was a burst of commotion at the scene.

O'Neill, you've met your opponent today!

Sun Hao also watched the fun, this classic NBA famous scene still happened in front of his eyes.

However, when the camera showed O'Neal lying on the ground, the fans found O'Neal...... Laughing.

There are many emotions in this kind of laughter.

But one of them, this is the first time he has met a player who can compete with him in terms of strength after gaining weight.

The Mavericks, this is a preparation for him.

After getting up, he made two solid free throws from the free throw line.

However, I could feel that his eyes were different from before.

A wave of offense in the Mavericks' frontcourt was defended, and in retrospect, O'Neal did not ask for a position again, but took the initiative to block and dismantle Kobe.

Battle's disadvantage was revealed at this point, he was too slow to get around the pick-and-roll, and he couldn't switch defenses.

Bryant hit a mid-range shot after the pick-and-roll.

Sun Hao also played a middle distance in the frontcourt.

Looking back, O'Neal continued to block Kobe Bryant, but Kobe Bryant's shot didn't score this time.

But O'Neal strode to the basket and smashed the ball into the basket directly past Bell.

After he dunked, he turned to look at Battle with a smile, and he frowned, and his expression was absolutely amazing.

When Sun Hao saw this, he knew that Battle's role as a surprise soldier was basically over.

Don't be fooled by O'Neal's size, this guy plays in the league with his brains!

Nelson Sr. also realized, and after O'Neal broke through Battle's dunk with the ball in the next round, he got up to replace Lafrentz on the court.

"Well done."

When Battle came off the court, Nelson Sr. went over and tapped him on the shoulder.

Battle has done the job, even exceeding expectations.

The rest of the game was handed over to Lafrentz.

Lafrenz came on and the game returned to the rhythm of the first game.

The difference is that the Mavericks resolutely shrink the basket under the basket, and Bell.

Bryant just got the ball in the front court and looked at O'Neal's position.

"Don't wrap it up, I can handle him."

At that moment, Bale suddenly turned around and shouted to his teammates who were a few meters away behind him.

This operation, the people who watched it were a little confused.

"Shaq is the boss of the Lakers, and you are optimistic about Shaq."

But after he finished his next sentence, Kobe's face immediately changed.

After experiencing the regular season, he has been wary of Sun Hao's attack.

So in the first game, when Sun Hao repeated his old tricks, he chose to ignore them.

But tonight, the reporter opened with a casual reminder, and then to Bell's words just now.

If he can ignore it anymore, then he is not Kobe!

"Boy, you think you can handle me?"

Kobe's eyes were already full of fierce light.

"Didn't I get you?"

Bell said without changing his eyes.

He was referring to the first meeting between the two teams in the regular season, and he defended Kobe Bryant's two consecutive attacks in the final moments, including the game where the equalizer was equalized.

Bryant heard Bell's answer and waved his hand vigorously to pull away.

At this moment, he didn't realize at all that the opening interview and Bell's provocation were all about making him jump into this pit.

Kobe Bryant's breakaway pull-up jump shot after a triple threat.

Bale's defense was very good, and Kobe Bryant was a little anxious.

"Phew!"

Kobe Bryant's shot failed to hit!

O'Neal grabbed the offensive rebound and carried Lafrenz to the basket.

9 to 8.

After Battle came off the field, he felt much more comfortable with himself.

"You'd better give the ball to Shaq, he's a lot better at scoring than you."

Bell then spoke.

This time it was directly trash talk, which made Kobe even more suffocated.

Don't ask Bell why there is so much trash talk, the Mavericks' trash talk vibe, it's too strong!

There are two cores inside and outside the team, one Nowitzki and one Sun Hao, one spraying the opponent and the other spraying coach.

It's not appropriate for him to have trash talk skills.

Moreover, Sun Hao had already told him before the game what the main points of trash talk that stimulated Kobe Bryant were!

Bryant's face became more and more ugly.

But he didn't hit back verbally.

Back on the defensive end, he followed Sun Hao closely and also helped disrupt Finley's offense.

He's obviously angry!

When it came to the offensive end, he hit Bale with his back, ignored Finley's weak-side defense, and made a difficult back-to-back shot.

"Phew!"

Kobe Bryant, continuous shots to hit the iron!

I don't know the meaning of the song when I hear it for the first time, but I am already a person in the song when I listen to it again!

Mamba, the prelude is out!

This time LaFrentz protected the defensive rebound, and the Mavericks quickly pushed the defense to counterattack.

Sun Hao gave the ball to Nowitzki, who followed up at the top of the arc, and Nowitzki received the ball for three points.

"Huh!"

12 to 8!

The Mavericks regain the upper hand.

Sun Hao and Nowitzki high-fived each other.

The Dallas twin guns worked together very well tonight.

"Hey, Kobe, they're provoking you, don't be fooled."

O'Neal walked up to Kobe Bryant at this time and pulled Kobe to remind.

He said that in the last game, and even in many games this season.

"I know."

Bryant nodded.

O'Neill smiled and stroked his head.

This is just the beginning, and it's not too late for Kobe Bryant to wake up.

The Lakers advanced to the frontcourt, and Bryant held the ball in the high post.

O'Neal sank to the bottom of the basket and reached for the ball, Kobe Bryant ...... Didn't give.

Bryant glanced at Bell and chose to attack with his back.

“……”

O'Neal had a question mark on his face at first, but immediately shook his head and turned and ran away from under the basket.

Kobe Bryant should have realized that this was a trap set for him by the Mavericks.

But he's Kobe, and this guy's brain circuit is different from others!

After ordinary people find out that it is a trap, they immediately adjust their offensive thinking and crawl out of the trap.

But what about Kobe?

Yes, it's a trap, I see.

But so what?

When I blow up Bell, the Mavericks' traps are useless!
