Chapter 256: Win the first game

Kobe Bryant looked at Yiyang lying on the ground in surprise, he still couldn't believe what had just happened. When did this guy get here? And how did he manage to jump in an instant and then complete the cap?

Kobe Bryant's career has had countless stressful nights, but not a single failure would have made "The Black Mamba" so worried.

Kobe Bryant suddenly remembered that before the game started, he said to Yiyang: "What you did on Roy's head, don't think about doing it again on my head." ”

However, the truth is, Yiyang didn't let Kobe do what he did to Roy.

"Also! A cap worth a thousand dollars. The game is over, and Yi's volleyball adventure ends the game! "In the stands, Mike. Brin had to yell into his headphones to make sure the audience in front of the TV could hear him, because he was surrounded by Mavericks fans cheering with excitement.

On the court, the Mavericks players rushed up and pulled Yiyang up from the ground. It's really unbelievable that this first-year rookie from China has once again saved the team from fire and water.

Carlisle, who was sitting on the bench, didn't participate in the players' celebrations, his heart was still beating wildly, this guy was still a little frightened. I don't know how Yiyang, who has a cold expression, feels at the moment.

"It looks like what you said at halftime really worked, and they held out until the end." Stotts smiled and shook Carlisle's hand.

"It may not be useful for me to just say it, I'm glad that Cuban has brought us a new blood!" Looking at Yiyang, who was surrounded by his teammates, Carlisle just wanted to thank God for sending this guy destined to become a superstar to Dallas......

The Mavericks players have turned the court into a sea of joy, with everyone hugging and hugging everyone around them. The result and process of this game are really exciting, the reversal of 14 points to win, the block of Kobe's stunner, everyone is like a dream.

However, this is not a dream, it is a real reality! 1-0, the Dallas Mavericks got the series off to a good start at home.

Contrary to the euphoria on the Mavericks' side, the Lakers players were silent. Bryant bit his lip tightly and looked up at the big screen. On that, the whole process of Yiyang's sealing of his lore just now is being replayed.

It turns out that Yiyang's position has always been a little biased towards Kobe. From the beginning, Yiyang planned to wrap up Kobe Bryant's moment of shooting.

Kobe Bryant has been paying attention to Marion who is in front of him, but he has ignored Yiyang, who may be made up at any time.

Because in other teams, it is impossible to have a defender who can come and pack and complete the block so quickly. But in Dallas, there's just one guy who can.

Yiyang, Yiyang...... Kobe Bryant is now full of Yiyang. He didn't expect that a first-year rookie would become a new opponent in his career so quickly. This alliance is getting more and more interesting......

"The young people of the Dallas Mavericks are growing rapidly, and when Cuban took him away with a good third pick, almost no one was optimistic about him, and everyone thought that Cuban guy must be crazy. Because before that, there was no case of Asian defender succeeding in the NBA at all. However, it has now become a key force in determining the outcome of the game. This guy is just a rookie and I think we can expect more from his career. ”

"A quasi-lore, a cap lore. It's incredible, if the 2010 draft were to be rearranged, I even think I could beat Wall and get the top pick! ”

The two commentators did not hesitate to use all the praise on Yiyang, although the victory in this game was the result of the efforts of everyone on the Mavericks. But there is no doubt that Yiyang's last-minute goals and blocks played a decisive role.

After calming down, Carlisle stood up and prepared to shake hands with "Zen Master" Jackson. When Jackson saw Carlisle coming, he didn't get up to greet him, but walked towards the players' tunnel.

As a championship godfather, Jackson can't tolerate a smile on his face after losing in the playoffs.

Looking at the old man's steps, Carlisle suddenly felt the pressure double. The Los Angeles Lakers, this proud championship team is like a spring. The tighter you press, the harder he is likely to bounce back.

Unlike "Zen Master" Jackson, Kobe Bryant did not leave the court in a hurry, but waited for Yiyang on the sidelines.

Yiyang saw Kobe beckoning at him, and out of respect for his opponent, he still ran over.

"You cold-blooded killer." This sentence came out of Kobe's mouth, maybe Yiyang felt nothing, but in fact, it represented Kobe's great affirmation of Yiyang.

Because Kobe Bryant himself is the most cold-blooded one. A player who can be compared to him, you can know how impressive Kobe Bryant was.

After that, Kobe Bryant looked up at the big screen again. Yiyang had 18 points and 11 assists today, as well as two steals and a block. Although Germany's Nowitzki's 28 points and 14 rebounds are more dazzling, in Kobe's view, the Lakers may not have lost without Yiyang.

"Today you won, but next time!" At this, Bryant paused, and shook his finger, which was still wrapped in gauze. "Next time, not necessarily!"

After speaking, Kobe Bryant patted Yiyang on the shoulder, and then turned around and left the court.

Bryant, who scored 36 points but still lost, silently walked off the court and refused all requests for interviews from reporters on the spot. That lonely No. 24 didn't look like a loser, on the contrary, his murderous aura at the moment even made Yiyang shudder.

God knows what would have happened on the field if he had just been a second slower. It's not that you can be in time for every game......

In the post-game press conference, Bryant praised Yiyang's play and bluntly said that the Lakers' defense in the third and fourth quarters of the game was lax.

'We defended the half well but unfortunately we didn't make it to the end. Yi's breakaway made our defense very chaotic, and that confusion just gave the Mavericks a gap. We all know that the Mavericks are a team that works very well as a team, and what they do best is score on the jumper. In the next game, we have to do a good job of blocking the Mavericks players and not giving them a chance to shoot again and again. "Kobe Bryant didn't say that because he wanted to show how much he respected his opponent." "Black Mamba" is subtly telling his teammates that in the next game, everyone has to play twelve points and devote themselves to defense!

Sure enough, after that, Kobe Bryant criticized Artest by name. Several of his fearless fouls and inattentive omissions led to big mistakes.

A few minutes later, the Mavericks' press conference unfolded in the same place. Carlisle, an elegant-looking guy, criticized several of the referee's decisions on the pitch in a press conference.

"The game is guided by the referee, but if the referee makes an unfair decision, then there is no qualification to guide the game! In today's game, the Lakers repeatedly relied on the referee's inaction to touch the rules. My players, on the other hand, have been hurt again and again by the aggression of the other side. I hope that the league can strictly demand the referee's blowing scale, otherwise, sooner or later, the field will collapse one day! ”

Carlisle's tough attitude startled the Mavericks' official chief press officer, while the underground reporters became excited one by one.

First, Kobe Bryant criticized his teammates by name, and now Carlisle is not shy about questioning the fairness of the league. It seems that tonight, the news is strong enough to make all the media a lot of money.

Now, the collective bargaining between the league and the players' union is not going well, and next season's shutdown seems to be a foregone conclusion. At this juncture, Carlisle also bombarded the league referee, undoubtedly hitting the muzzle of the gun.

After coming down, the Mavericks' female chief press officer suggested that Carlisle make a statement on social media stating that she was just angry and not saying those things against the league.

"If I'm afraid of them, they'll ride on top of us again and again!" With these words, Carlisle rejected the chief press officer's request.

"So, I don't have to go to the press conference?" Yiyang on the side saw that there was a mess here, and was about to go back to the locker room.

However, the chief press officer grabbed Yiyang. "Oh, it's your turn."

The professional woman pointed to the door of the media reception room, and Yiyang pouted and walked in obediently. Sometimes she feels like the "homeroom teacher" of the Mavericks' "class".

These big men have a temper like children......

In the visiting locker room at the U.S. Route Center, the Lakers players who lost the game didn't talk much and were not very emotional.

Jackson didn't lash out in the locker room, and as he got older, Jackson's heart became quieter. But instead of losing his temper, he will make the Lakers players feel uncomfortable.

Everybody knows Jackson is angry right now, and tomorrow's training, they'd better show up. Otherwise, maybe this old man will let you sit on the bench?

Bryant was also silent, he sat in front of his locker, but did not change his clothes.

The guy frowned and rubbed his already injured ankle.

Before the start of this game, Bryant's ankle sprain did not heal. But he felt that there was no big problem, so he still insisted on playing and scored 36 points in the high-intensity confrontation.

But this excessive load seems to make Kobe's ankle a little unbearable. Now, his ankle is aching, Kobe Bryant gritted his teeth and insisted, he didn't want his body to have problems at this critical moment!

"Kobe, what's wrong with you!?" Jackson seemed to notice that something was wrong with Kobe, and he immediately asked nervously and loudly.

"It's nothing, it's normal to have a little pain in my ankle right now." Kobe Bryant replied lightly and smiled at the "Zen Master".

However, the entire locker room of the Lakers suddenly fell silent, and all eyes fell on Kobe.

"Do you have pain in your ankle?" Even Jackson stood up nervously.

"I know my body, it's okay, Fill." Bryant waved his hand and continued to smile.

However, "Zen Master" and other Lakers players are ridiculous. Kobe Bryant is the flag of the Lakers. If he falls, so does the Lakers.

"Team Doctor!" So Jackson waved his hand and called out the team doctor.

I hope that guy's ankle won't be crushed by this......
