Chapter 257: Fighting Kobe
Huang Xiang's dunk completely ignited the atmosphere of the scene, and this is the way these Yankees like to score the most, especially when it is the goal of the future boss of their team.
Regardless of the status and technical level of the Lakers, the person responsible for Huang Xiang should be Kobe, but the leaky fast break just now was obviously not in place, allowing a rookie to show off a dunk in front of him, and Kobe's face went black with a swish.
"Good boy, let me see how many pounds and taels you have." Bryant twisted his neck and ran across half court.
Teammates who are familiar with Kobe Bryant glanced at Huang Xiang sympathetically, the black mamba is going to show his fangs, little rookie, you are going to be miserable.
Iverson looked at Kobe Bryant, who was frowning, and smiled in his heart, this Huang Xiang is really a bull fork, and it aroused Kobe's fighting spirit when he came up, and today's game is interesting.
"Be careful." Iverson kindly reminded him and then prepared his defensive stance.
Huang Xiang nodded, there is nothing to be careful about, Kobe, it is you who are waiting.
Fisher brought the basketball over the half court and ushered in Kobe's reach, there was no suspense, the basketball was passed by Fisher, Kobe received the ball and retreated, raised his hand, and made a pitching action.
Seeing Kobe's movements, Huang Xiang reflexively squatted down and prepared to block, but then he stopped his movements, intuitively, Kobe Bryant was not such a direct attacker, and it should be a feint.
Huang Xiang's choice was immediately correctly verified, Kobe really rushed to Huang Xiang's side, but even if Huang Xiang didn't get up, he didn't stop Kobe's footsteps, Kobe rushed directly to the basket and scored a layup.
"Rookie, remember this is the NBA." Kobe Bryant looked at Huang Xiang coldly, for this kind of arrogant rookie, he should beat their sharpness.
After listening to Kobe's words, Huang Xiang shook his head helplessly, he still lacks experience, but he is still full of confidence in himself, after all, Kobe Bryant has more than ten years of NBA experience, and he is indeed a rookie.
"What, tactical needs, I don't have the same knowledge as you." Huang Xiang comforted himself, Huang Xiang didn't care about Kobe's provocation at all, at this time his mind slowly matured, and this kind of provocation still couldn't arouse the crazy fighting spirit in his heart.
Iverson handed the basketball to Huang Xiang after half time, Huang Xiang did not force the game, but handed the basketball to Jones on the side, Jones received Huang Xiang's pass again, and the three-point pull was a shot, and the basketball fell into the basket steadily.
"Huh" Jones exhaled lightly, his position was not secured, if he didn't go in a row, the coach would definitely clean himself up, but fortunately he entered.
"Why don't you go head-to-head with Kobe?" Iverson asked suspiciously, he frequently passed the ball to Huang Xiang, but this guy just didn't appreciate it and always handed it over to others.
"I'm not alone in the team, as long as we can win." Huang Xiang smiled faintly.
After listening to Huang Xiang's words, Iverson was stunned for a moment, why is this guy so unchasing fame and fortune, doesn't he like the feeling of holding power in his hands?
"Okay, whatever you want." Iverson spread his hands and then ran across half court to defend.
Kobe Bryant took the basketball over the half court and gave the ball to the inside Gasol, the former Bear King leaned back, resisted West and got up to make a shot, however, West is not a vegetarian, although the block did not end the trajectory of the basketball, but the fingertips still made slight contact with the basketball.
The basketball smashed heavily into the basket, and Huang Xiang on one side easily grabbed the rebound, handed it to Jones and turned around and ran.
However, this time Kobe did not give Huang Xiang a chance, and when Huang Xiang was just over halftime, Kobe Bryant chased behind Huang Xiang and destroyed Huang Xiang's original fast attack.
"Don't you want to go alone with me?" Kobe Bryant looked at Huang Xiang depressedly, how is this guy so different from the previous Ross and others, is this the unique style of the Chinese?
"Why do you want to go it alone with you?" Huang Xiang frowned, what are you too far?
"You guy." Kobe shook his head, this was the first time he was so unpopular, especially since the opponent was a rookie.
Wait? Why am I angry? Kobe Bryant shook his head in confusion, why was he angry because of this rookie? Hold on, steady, hold on......
Jones threw the ball across the half court to Huang Xiang, Huang Xiang did not escape this time, his body accelerated instantly and rushed over, Kobe Bryant completely became Huang Xiang's back this time.
Huang Xiang, who rushed into the inner line, pulled it up high, Bynum jumped up against Huang Xiang, Huang Xiang seized the opportunity, completed a half-turn in the air, and then threw the basketball high.
Under the gaze of everyone, the basketball fell steadily into the basket, and Huang Xiang hit a single, which was also the first time Huang Xiang and Kobe Bryant officially played against each other.
Although there was some meanness, however, for the final result, Huang Xiang was victorious.
Kobe glanced at Huang Xiang, and unconsciously burst out with a strong fighting spirit, Huang Xiang, in the last game, you fought James alone, this one, let me take a look at your strength.
This time Kobe Bryant personally operated and went straight to Huang Xiang with the ball, Huang Xiang did not defend himself, but cooperated with Jones from the side to instantly pinch Kobe, the most important thing is that the pinch is completed in an instant, and Kobe did not find it before.
At the moment of the "snap", Jones's body rushed forward, forcing Kobe's body to retreat sharply, while Huang Xiang's big hand stabbed directly at the basketball, and the basketball made a crisp sound and steal.
Kobe Bryant is really still old, and he was easily tackled by Huang Xiang, a rookie, although it was due to the credit of him and Jones, but if it was Kobe Bryant who was at the peak of the past, he would not lose his possession of the ball by the two of them.
Huang Xiang and Iverson who stole the two at the same time in the half, the two guys rushed through the half court like two sports cars, Huang Xiang cooperated with the basketball to Iverson, and then rushed into the penalty area from the bottom line, Iverson threw the basketball out with a big move, Huang Xiang jumped up in the air to take the basketball and then dunk it into the basket.
Although the "roar" is a preseason, but today the credit arena is full of people, and the cheers of 20,000 people make Huang Xiang in the field feel full of fighting spirit, this will be my own home stadium from now on, this feeling is really cool.
"King, King, King......" I don't know who shouted the word king first, and at the end, the 20,000 fans in the stadium cheered together to welcome the new king of the arena.
"It seems that you are regarded as a savior by the people here." Iverson patted Huang Xiang on the shoulder and congratulated, but the bitterness in his words was easily captured by Huang Xiang.
Iverson, the former league's No. 1 defender, has been reduced to one of the veteran's base salary contracts at this time, why can't he sigh?
"Hehe, I hope so." Huang Xiang smiled, and then ran across the half court to prepare for defense.
"You're really treacherous." Looking at Huang Xiang in front of him, he recalled the time when the two of them snatched Kobe Bryant helplessly, this guy is a bit interesting.
"It's a game, and of course it's going to take some strategy." Huang Xiang pursed his lips, there are still many good things.
At 6:34 in the first quarter, the Big Sharks replaced Howard, Jones was replaced by Petrus, and Gibson replaced Iverson.
The Lakers also made personnel changes, with Wharton replacing the old fish and Brown replacing Odom.
The grievances between O'Neal and Kobe Bryant are not something that can be explained in a sentence or two, once the combination of O'Neal and Kobe shook the whole league, and Kobe Bryant also grew up under O'Neal's care a little bit, but in the end, Kobe, who felt that he was the boss, forced the Lakers senior management to give O'Neal to the Heat, which is the grievance of the two.
Out of politeness, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant said hello, O'Neal had just recovered from his injury at this time, and it was the best choice to fight for ten minutes a game, while Howard could play even forty minutes a game, so now as a substitute, O'Neal is very adaptable.
Gibson took the basketball through the half, Gibson at this time grew up very quickly, there is a bull like Iverson to teach him to control the ball and react on the court and other abilities are slowly improving, and he hoisted the ball into the inside and handed it to the big sharks after taking the ball over the half, he knew that O'Neal needed to get something from the Lakers.
O'Neal took the basketball and smiled, Bynum behind him pressed tightly on top of him, and this kind of violent center was still a little difficult for the aging shark.
"Roar" But O'Neal needs to fight, and with a violent roar, he pouts his ass back, and his body rises from the ground and slams the basketball into the basket.
Although Bynum's defense was very difficult for O'Neal to deal with, O'Neal still relied on his body to make a hard hit.
It felt good, O'Neal laughed, rubbed his beard lightly, high-fived Gibson and ran across the halfcourt.
Howard off the court regained his strength to the fullest, and the sharks on the court were just starting to exert their power at this time, and the Lakers obviously did not expect the Cavaliers to focus their firepower on the aging O'Neal, and they were hit by the Cavaliers again and again in a row, scoring 6 points in a row.
In the last 15 seconds of the first quarter, the Cavaliers attacked, at which time the Cavaliers 26-21 Lakers, with a five-point lead.
Gibson quickly took the basketball across the half court, time was rapidly receding, and handed the basketball to Huang Xiang on the side with a big move, Huang Xiang shook the ball to Petrus, who then passed back to Gibson, Gibson handed it to Huang Xiang again, Huang Xiang received the ball and rushed straight to the inside.
There were only 4 seconds left in the time, Huang Xiang rushed into the inside line and jumped high, and the Lakers' inner twin towers all jumped up, however, Huang Xiang suddenly changed his policy and handed the basketball to O'Neal on one side, and the shark received the ball again, and again, shot and hit.
At 28:21, the first quarter of the game ended, O'Neal scored 8 points alone in the first quarter, the biggest contributor to the first quarter of the Cavaliers.
The Cavaliers' performance today won the cheers of the crowd, and this year they finally stopped worrying about that LeBron leaving, and they have their own new emperor this year.
