"Even Jordan is nothing more than that." After the pause, Kobe, who had been silent for half a quarter, leaned on Meng Xu, twisted left and right, and then turned back with a standard back and hit a jumper, looking at Kobe Bryant with a calm face, Meng Xu thought in his heart that although he had not summoned Jordan in the system, but after such a long time in the system, Meng Xu could probably guess how strong Jordan was. And Kobe Bryant in this game, with 96 strength, entered the state of entering the devil, even compared to Jordan in peak condition, it is estimated that it will not be much worse.

Looking at Kobe's provocative little eyes, Meng Xu's only way now is to hit him back with practical actions, unlike in the previous game, Kobe, who was not very good at trash talk, in the entanglement with Meng Xu in this game, there were no superfluous words from beginning to end, and he seemed to have always been so calm, so calm, just like his nickname "Black Mamba", just quietly spitting out the core there, waiting to give the opponent a fatal blow at any time.

Speaking of nicknames, Meng Xu also remembered, following the door panel and Mr. 0, Meng Xu now has a new nickname "Odin", since this season Meng Xu has been convulsed in a game from time to time, the name of "Berserker" has been deducted on Meng Xu's head by some media and sunspots, at first for this kind of slander and slander, Meng Xu was very unhappy, for this reason also sent a lawyer's letter to the New York Times, can't you say that I am a berserker, I am a berserker. Just when the two sides were about to face off in court, a German reporter from the New York Times issued a statement saying that Berserker means Odin in High German, and Odin is the main god in Norse mythology, so the New York Times called Meng Xu a Berserker, which did not damage Meng Xu's honor, and since then even some fans of Meng Xu have begun to call Meng Xu Odin.

Looking at Kobe Bryant, who was calm to some abnormality, Meng Xu was also a little speechless, but the most important thing now is to get rid of his defense, in this attack, Meng Xu just passed half the court, Kobe Bryant clung to it, not letting Meng Xu dribble easily.

After a combination with Mario Ely, the defense of Meng Xu became Derek Fisher, and Meng Xu directly collided with Derek Fisher and jumped to the right side of the arc.

Because Duncan and O'Neal fought for half the first quarter, the offensive core of the Lakers and Spurs shifted to the perimeter almost simultaneously after the start of the second half of the first quarter. At the beginning of this game, Phil Jackson gave up the triangle offense and was ready to use X**D tactics to compete with the Spurs, and in the Lakers' X**D tactics, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant are undoubtedly two machetes, one inside and one outside. And whether it is Kobe Bryant or Meng Xu, especially Kobe, he is not the kind of person who is willing to be reduced to a supporting role, so when the game restarts, the two quickly want to take over the game and have the kind of confrontation between Duncan and O'Neal.

"Meng, watch your defense." Just when Meng Xu was struggling to entangle Kobe, Steve Cole on the sidelines shouted loudly to Meng Xu, in Steve Cole's opinion, compared with the previous two games, Meng Xu's defense of Kobe Bryant in this game was obviously lax, in the first two games, Kobe, who was pinched by Meng Xu, is now resurrected, and in a minute after the pause, he shot 2 of 3 and scored 5 points in a row.

"I'm going, I really don't have a backache when I stand and talk, no wonder they all say that defense is a thankless task." After Meng Xu glanced at Steve Cole, he continued to stick to Kobe, while watching Kobe's next move intently. When facing Kobe Bryant today, Meng Xu unexpectedly found that although he had a skill like a sixth sense, he still couldn't see through some of Kobe's feints, whether it was a fake play or a real play, Meng Xu really felt a lot of pressure on the defensive end today. , so Meng Xu had to concentrate and have no distractions when defending Kobe.

Kobe Bryant's thoughts are basically similar to Meng Xu's now, for Meng Xu, who can easily see through most of his feints, Kobe Bryant is also a headache, breakthrough is a sharp weapon in Kobe's arsenal, but every time he encounters Meng Xu, Kobe's breakthrough will become without the slightest threat, Meng Xu can always block Kobe's breakthrough route in advance, so now as long as he encounters Spurs and Meng Xu, Kobe Bryant's most commonly used move is his signature move, which is very similar to Jordan's back-to-back jumper. This time, Kobe Bryant also wanted to end the attack by turning his back and leaning back, and those various feints were just to give himself enough space to complete the attack, and from the beginning to the end, Kobe Bryant never thought of playing the idea of breaking through in front of Meng Xu.

"It's still a little bit close." Although Kobe Bryant's shooting options had been predicted in advance, when Kobe Bryant completed a series of actions of turning, leaning back, and shooting, Meng Xu was still a little powerless, especially after looking at Kobe Bryant floating in the air and moving sideways for a distance, Meng Xu couldn't wait for his arm span to be more than 10 centimeters long.

"Meng, the defense is good, keep up the good work." After Kobe Bryant landed this shot, he rarely began to provoke Meng Xu.

"This bear kid is really underwhelming." Looking at Kobe Bryant, who was smiling but looking extremely calm, a small flame instantly ignited in Meng Xu's heart.

"The first half of the first quarter was a showdown between O'Neal and Duncan, and the second half of the game looks like it will be a showdown between Meng Xu and Kobe." After the pause in the first quarter of the game, Kobe Bryant swept all the Lakers' offensive opportunities, perhaps stimulated by Kobe, Meng Xu also began to try to take over the game in the first quarter.

"Is Kobe Bryant the shadow of Meng Xu? The movements of the two were so synchronized. Soon in the new round of matchups, when Meng Xu appeared at a 45-degree angle on the left side of the 3-point line with the ball, Kobe Bryant appeared in front of Meng Xu as usual, but what is surprising is that every feint of Meng Xu, or every shake, Kobe Bryant in front of Meng Xu will be in sync, that is to say, Meng Xu's feints are now recognized by Kobe Bryant without exception.

But this is useless, Meng Xu's best scoring means is 3 points and breakthroughs, in the case of O'Neal on the inside, Meng Xu will not easily impact the Lakers' inside. Therefore, after being amused by Kobe's divine synchronization, Meng Xu took a step back directly, and bent his knees down a little.

As long as Meng Xu makes this move, then almost everyone will know that the next thing must be Meng Xu's picturesque pull and jump on the spot, Kobe Bryant, who is already very familiar with Meng Xu, is naturally clear about this, so Kobe Bryant took a step forward directly. It was only when Kobe Bryant jumped in front of Meng Xu that he found that after Meng Xu's body shook upward, his feet did not leave the ground, and when Kobe Bryant began to fall from the air, Meng Xu really jumped.

"I don't believe I can fool you." Meng Xu, who was on the rise, looked at Kobe Bryant, who was beginning to fall, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth.

In this way, you have a ball, I have a ball, the Spurs and the Lakers have always bitten very tightly on the score, and no one can get rid of each other, and at the same time, as the game progresses, the situation on the court is getting more and more anxious.

"In this game, the Spurs and Lakers defended very well, but this game was very exciting." At the end of the first quarter, the Spurs and Lakers were tied at 27. Judging from the game in the first quarter, both on the offensive end and on the defensive end, both sides did their best. The Lakers, who were previously considered average defensively, performed impeccable on the defensive end in the first quarter of this game, O'Neal's defensive range increased significantly in this game, and Kobe's assistance defense was also very good. In the past, as long as it was a game that was crowned as a defensive battle, it would be labeled as dull and boring, but this game is just the opposite, on the surface, the Spurs and the Lakers are fighting positional battles, and the bayonets are fighting defense, but in fact, from the beginning to the end of the first quarter of the game, the Spurs and the Lakers are relying on the play of several superstars on the court.
