"This guy is really persistent, he doesn't play anymore." Just over 7 minutes have passed in the first quarter, Kobe Bryant has already shot 10 times in front of Meng Xu, although he only hit 5 times, but watching Kobe Bryant continue to **** Meng Xu's anger in front of him has been stirred up to some extent. Meng Xu now really understands Billups's mood, in the game with the Timberwolves, Billups, who was constantly *** by Meng Xu, at the end of the first quarter of the game, that desperate and resentful little eyes, Meng Xu now remembers it clearly, because what Meng Xu encountered today is a copy of Billups that day, although Kobe is a little shorter than Meng Xu, but Kobe basically ignored Meng Xu's various side turns, and the back-to-back jumper that turned his back was almost the same as Meng Xu's *** Billups that day.

"Beautiful passing, I have to say, Meng Xu's passing is more and more like Erwin and Anferne." When Meng Xu got rid of Kobe Bryant again, once again used an extremely angry pass without looking at people, and handed over the basketball to Duncan on the inside, Michaels, the commentator of this game, also looked at his partner Magic Johnson and said with a sigh.

"yes, I guess that's the last thing Larry wants." Seeing that Meng Xu's playing style is becoming more and more like Hardaway, or more and more like himself, Magic Johnson feels that the bet he made with Larry Bird will definitely be won by himself in the end.

"Larry?" Michaels doesn't know the meaning of the Magician's brainless words, and only a very small number of people know about the bet that Larry Bird and Johnson made.

However, this time Meng Xu's beautiful pass failed to turn into an assist, after the introduction of Grant this season, the Lakers' interior combination is unprecedentedly strong, and after O'Neal put most of his energy on the defensive end, Duncan also played extremely difficult in this game. Grant is physically strong, and his foot movement is very good, he has been in the best defensive team many times, not only that, Grant is also a veteran ruffian who has been in the NBA for more than 10 years, and he is extremely good at all kinds of small actions of pit people, so although Grant is 34 years old, this kind of defensive player is basically what everyone does not want to encounter. And in today's game, Grant's defense made Duncan very uncomfortable, and at the same time, in order to break Tim Duncan and defeat the Spurs, O'Neal now can't care about the so-called superstar dignity, but put down his body to wrap Duncan.

In the first two seasons, the Lakers' power forward has always been Robert Hawley, a pseudo-power forward, so every time he faces the Spurs' twin towers, O'Neal will play very uncomfortable, in this kind of muscle confrontation on the inside, Robert Hawley really can't provide O'Neal with any help, because neither Duncan nor David Robinson can be dealt with by Robert Hawley, and after Grant joined the Lakers this season, all these problems do not exist.

After receiving the ball, Duncan, after encountering O'Neal and Grant's bag, passed the basketball to Sean Elliott who appeared vacant very quickly, but after Sean Elliott received the ball, before he had time to adjust, Fox's defense was in place, in this case, Sean Elliott chose to continue to transfer the ball, and when the basketball passed from Sean Elliott to Mario Eliott, and Mario Eli passed back to Meng Xu, the attack had consumed almost 20 seconds.

After receiving the ball, Meng Xu glanced up at the timing card, in order not to make a mistake or overtime when he continued to transfer the ball, Meng Xu decided to throw the ball by himself, dribbled the ball on the spot, and deliberately waited until Kobe Bryant came to defend himself, and Meng Xu pulled out his hand very quickly at the 3-point line.

"Kobe, I don't want to be a scoring freak, but when it comes to scoring, I won't lose to anyone, including you." When Meng Xu landed in the air and saw the 3-point shot he thrown, he said to Kobe Bryant, who was defending him.

"Call me a scoring freak? Then I'm crazy about you. After seeing Meng Xu finally make a move, Kobe Bryant also showed a look of excitement, the game without an opponent is destined to be lonely and lonely, but even so, you can't beat me in scoring, this season through the previous points, especially after defeating Iverson and Carter, Kobe's self-confidence is now unprecedentedly high, if it weren't for Jordan having retired, Kobe would even go to Jordan to compare one or two.

"Meng, don't you think you're playing too fancy? It's Los Angeles and it's Staples, but you have to understand that you're a basketball player, not an entertainment star, and if you want to get into Hollywood, you're going to have to wait until the end of your contract with the Spurs, understand? After the end of the first quarter of the game, as soon as he walked off the court, Popovich sprayed at Meng Xu on the seat, if it weren't for the fact that the Spurs had been trailing the Lakers, Popovich would have replaced Meng Xu and made him calm and calm. As a wise head coach, those little ninety-nine in Meng Xu's heart, how could Popovich not know, just like Duncan just entered the league and met the Bulls, he had to show himself in front of Jordan, Meng Xu came to Madison as soon as he arrived, Meng Xu, who likes to be in the limelight, how could he let go of this opportunity, today's game is gathered almost most of the stars in the entertainment and sports world in the United States, if there is no idea, then Meng Xu is not Meng Xu. At the same time, what could be more impressive than showing off the way Magic played in front of Magic Johnson on the Lakers' home court?

"Got it, got it." When Meng Xu's mind was seen through by Popovich, Meng Xu was also very embarrassed and uncomfortable nodded, Meng Xu nodded at the same time, quickly turned his face to the side to see if Duncan who was not far from him gloated, when he saw that Duncan still had a serious expression, Meng Xu turned around and continued to listen to Popovich's "teachings".

"Good." After seeing Meng Xu's confession attitude, Popovich continued: "Now the Lakers' defense is shrinking very tightly, so in the next games, you have to increase the number of outside shots appropriately." "In this game, the Lakers are very good at protecting the inside, the best performance of the Spurs in the first quarter is David Robinson, after O'Neal continued to wrap Duncan, David Robinson also got a lot of opportunities, 4 of 7 shots in the first quarter and scored a team-high 8 points, while Duncan only shot 4 times and only hit 1 shot, and the Spurs' two outside Mario Eri and Sean Elliott are not very good now, and at the end of the first quarter of the game, the Lakers simply began to shrink their defense, Dead pinch Duncan and David Robinson.

"No problem, no problem." When he heard that Popovich wanted to increase the number of shots by himself, Meng Xu immediately burst into a smile like a flower, with your words, don't blame me for making too many shots or anything. Although the rewards received by the triple-double are better and more realistic, in the eyes of fans and the media, super scorers like Kobe and Iverson are the most popular, and Meng Xu was ready to make a big news in Staples today.

"But." After seeing Meng Xu's bright smile, Popovich immediately sank his face and gave Meng Xu a vaccination: "If you are the same as that explosive head boy, then you will give me an unconditional end." Although Popovich is also very optimistic about Kobe, if there is such a guy on his team, then Popovich is unacceptable anyway.

After halfway through the second quarter, the main players of the two teams returned to the court, because there was still some gap between the bench lineup and the Lakers, so in the 6 minutes that the two teams played the bench lineup, the Spurs not only failed to narrow the score, but the difference between the points widened. 30-37, the Spurs are about to trail the Lakers by double digits.

"Meng, didn't you just say that you won't lose to me in terms of scores?" When Meng Xu passed the center circle with the ball, Kobe Bryant switched defenses with Haber and came to defend Meng Xu in person.

"That's natural, it's not me bragging, if I want to score, the scoring champion or something will definitely be none of your business." While Meng Xu spoke, after shaking in place for two consecutive times, he passed the basketball to Mario Elie on the left side of the 3-point line.

"Shall we make a bet then?" Although Meng Xu no longer has a basketball in his hand now, Kobe Bryant still chased Meng Xu unrelentingly: "Let's make a bet, who will score more in this game?" How's that, for the sake of fairness, we didn't even score well in the first quarter, just from now on, how's that? Meng Xu only scored 5 points on 2-of-3 shooting in the first quarter, while Kobe Bryant scored 13 points on 6-of-12 shooting and 1-of-2 free throws.

"How unfair is this to you, if you want to bet, we will count from the beginning of the game and continue to the end of the game, how about it?" After Meng Xu finished speaking, he went to the basket along the sideline, and when Kobe Bryant behind him was blocked by his teammate Grant, Meng Xu quickly passed through the gap and ran to the bottom corner of the other side.

Meng Xu, who was no longer defending, soon received a pass from his teammates, with a fast bounce speed and a beautiful posture, the basketball thrown by Meng Xu went directly into the net, and after this shot, the difference between the Spurs and the Lakers was narrowed to 4 points. At the same time, the difference between Meng Xu and Kobe Bryant is only 5 points.
