Chapter 60: A Strong Eruption

Looking at Chi Liang's back, Harris sighed lightly, Harper couldn't prevent it, Fisher couldn't prevent it, even Kobe Bryant couldn't prevent it, and the bag had no effect on him.

Ji Liang played a total of 14 minutes and efficiently achieved 12 points, 11 assists and 4 rebounds. It only took half time for Ji Liang to achieve two doubles.

For Chi Liang's performance, Harris is still amazed, and he can feel that Chi Liang has improved again.

Even now, Harris still firmly believes that as long as he is traded for Ji Liang, the Lakers can make up for the shortcomings and become the most competitive team in the league.

It's a pity that Jerry West didn't agree, he thinks that Ji Liang's number of games is too small, and the yellow race has not been proven in the NBA, so he thinks there is a big risk.

Most importantly, Jerry West values Kobe Bryant and believes that Kobe is the future of the Lakers.

"Chi Liang, you continue to play in the third quarter and strive to expand the score!"

In the home team's locker room, D'Antoni began to lay out the tactics of the second half, asking Ji Liang to continue playing.

Regarding D'Antoni's request, Chi Liang agreed. He had enough energy to handle the second half.

At half-time, the two teams put on their starting line-ups and continued to compete for victory on the field.

Looking at Ji Liang in the last game, Harris frowned slightly, and with a double-digit lead, D'Antoni continued to put Ji Liang on the court, nothing more than to expand the advantage.

Harris expressed disdain for D'Antoni's approach, but was wary that it would be difficult for the Lakers to win if the Nuggets continued to extend their advantage.

The Nuggets' ball possession, after halftime, Chi Liang's opponent was still Kobe, and Harper went to switch to Billups.

In Harris's opinion, although it is difficult for Kobe to limit Chi Liang, his defense is better and can more or less reduce Ji Liang's efficiency.

"Come on!"

Kobe Bryant opened his hands, his center of gravity was slightly heavy, and his eyes were fixed on Chi Liang. He was very unwilling in his heart, and in the first half of the duel, Chi Liang was more dominant.

Chi Liang didn't speak, the frequency of dribbling increased significantly, Kobe Bryant didn't dare to act rashly, but pressed the center of gravity lower, beware of Chi Liang's breakthrough.

At this moment, the corners of Ji Liang's mouth pulled out his usual smile, and the basketball rebounded and was held by both hands, and he jumped straight up.

Kobe Bryant was caught off guard, his reaction was a beat slower, and by the time he jumped, Ji Liang had already thrown the basketball in his hand.

He has a confident look on his face, and the three-point shot is his forte, especially after the start of the third quarter, when he opened up his dynamic vision early.

Swish~

After landing, Kobe Bryant hurriedly turned his head and saw a flying basketball, hollow into the net.

After the Lakers served, between three passes and two turns, the basketball was quickly passed to the front court, and through a smooth pass, it was finally passed to O'Neal.

O'Neill received the ball with his back and began to exert force on his back, even if Lafrenz gave it his all, he was still knocked back.

After knocking back Lafrenz, O'Neal wanted to turn around and dunk.

"Be careful!"

Before O'Neill could finish turning, a big hand slapped on the basketball and knocked it down, and then it was grabbed by Lafrentz.

It turned out that when O'Neill repelled La Frentz, Chi Liang secretly approached O'Neill. Taking advantage of O'Neal's turn, he took the opportunity to steal.

O'Neal reacted quickly, and after being stealed, he hurriedly wrapped up Lafrenz and didn't give the Nuggets a chance to break quickly.

By the time Lafrentz passed the ball to Chi Liang, the other four players of the Lakers had already returned to defense, and O'Neal, who was at his peak, was not slow, which also made Chi Liang break off the idea of fast breaking.

After half the court with the ball, one step away from the three-point line, Ji Liang faced Kobe Bryant again.

Chi Liang controlled the ball with his right hand, raised his index finger with his left hand and said, "I will shoot three points this time!"

"If you have the ability, you can vote!"

Kobe Bryant thought it was trash talk and wanted to interfere with his thinking, so naturally he wouldn't really believe it, but he had a strong personality and couldn't afford to lose.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Kobe's words fell, Chi Liang jumped up head-on.

Kobe Bryant was shocked, his reaction was not unpleasant, and he jumped up immediately, but what he didn't expect was that Ji Liang threw the basketball in his hand before he rose to the highest point.

Compared with Kobe, Chi Liang's bounce is a lot worse, but the bounce speed is not much different, and such a shooting rhythm undoubtedly greatly reduces Kobe's interference.

Swish~

Before Kobe Bryant turned around, he heard the sound of the basketball entering the net, which was extremely harsh to him, but the opponent felt hot, what could he do.

"I have one advantage, I never tell lies!"

As he spoke, Chi Liang spread out his hands, revealing a sincere expression, and without waiting for Kobe Bryant to respond, he turned back to defense.

"Damn rookie!"

Looking at Chi Liang's back, Kobe Bryant clenched his hands, his competitiveness was extremely strong, and he was paranoid, suppressed by the 'rookie' Chi Liang, so he was naturally very unwilling and wanted to fight back.

The Lakers' offense, Kobe Bryant did not pass the ball, but chose to play alone. His teammates, immediately began to pull, pulling out the space to break through.

Unexpectedly, Kobe Bryant did not break through, but jumped straight up, stretched his body as much as he could, and threw the basketball.

After throwing the basketball, Kobe Bryant's heart moved, feeling that this ball was likely to score.

At this moment, Chi Liang jumped up with all his might, stretched out his right arm, and pointed at the basketball with all his might.

"Impossible!"

In mid-air, Kobe Bryant's pupils shrank, revealing an expression of disbelief, and he saw that the tip of Chi Liang's middle finger was under the basketball, causing the basketball to change its trajectory.

If it was a normal state, it would naturally be difficult for Ji Liang to stop, but now that it was a dynamic vision state, his reaction was improved to the extreme, and at the moment when Kobe Bryant jumped, he also jumped.

Compared with the 'mediocre' Kobe, although Chi Liang's bounce is much worse, his height and arm length make up for it very well.

Boom~

There was no accident, the basketball bounced on the rebound, and was finally grabbed by Fortson, who passed the basketball to Ji Liang.

Still had no chance to break fast, Chi Liang dribbled the basketball, stood outside the three-point line again, looked at Kobe Bryant, who was waiting for the battle, and said, "Kobe, do you think I will shoot three points this time?" ”

Kobe pursed his lips tightly and didn't speak, but he still took half a step up to guard against Ji Liang's three-point shot.

At the moment when Kobe Bryant stepped forward, Chi Liang immediately started, broke through to the right side with the ball, Kobe was shocked, and hurriedly moved to the left, who knew that Chi Liang retracted his right foot and stepped back to shoot.

"Suffered!"

By the time Kobe jumped, he had lost the best time to block, but he still tried his best to block Chi Liang's vision and interfere with Chi Liang's hit rate.

Swish~

Before Kobe Bryant could turn around, the sound of the basketball entering the basket sounded, and his expression instantly became ugly.
