The bet was just a small episode in the long days of training for the two, a seasoning. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the days that followed, at the end of each day's training, they would start heads-up, just like they did in high school.

Since entering the league, the frequent schedules and high-intensity training have made them have no effort to do the same as before, and the two of them occupy a field and fight for a whole day.

Such heads-up reminded them of the good years of high school, and the smiles on Kobe's face grew.

In fact, although Kobe Bryant has become the strongest player on the Lakers team this season, his withdrawn personality is not very pleasing to his teammates, and in this team, except for Tony, who has the best relationship with him, there is only one Jones who introduced him to the Lakers in the first place, who can be regarded as half of his friend.

Although Kobe Bryant doesn't care about the relationship with his teammates, he still has a different attitude towards Tony.

This kind of heads-up is also very helpful for the polishing of the offensive skills of the two, and the two are training every day, and before they know it, May is coming to an end.

Tony is in a good mood these days, because he won the bet with Kobe, although the Houston Rockets have three future Hall of Fame level players, they still lost to the Utah Jazz with a score of 2:4, the 1,000 bet he actually doesn't care very much, but to see Kobe Bryant's strong guy eat a deflated, Tony is willing to pay even if he is upside down.

In the sixth game, the Rockets sat at home and played with the Jazz throughout the game, even if they still maintained the lead in the last minutes of the game, it can be said that they had a chance to drag the game into a tie-break, but in the end the Jazz relied on the individual offense of Stockton and Malone to overtake the score.

John Stockton's steal on the Rockets in the final game sealed the win as they narrowly beat the Rockets 103-100 three-pointers to reach the Finals.

In the game, John Stockton scored 25 points, 13 assists, 2 rebounds and 2 steals on 8-of-15 shooting, while Karl Malone delivered 24 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks on 11-of-24 shooting, and they made the 69 points of the Rockets' Big Three meaningless.

The matchup between the Chicago Bulls and the New York Knicks in the East has shown a one-sided trend, Jordan has always been Ewing's bitter master, they have formed a deep bond since college, Ewing has not been able to step on Jordan's Bulls, they have met the Bulls six times in the playoffs in the last eight years, sadly, the Knicks have only won once, and the only time they won that time was because Jordan retired.

This is the seventh time they've met in the playoffs, and the Knicks still haven't been able to change their fortunes.

4:1

The Bulls eliminated the Knicks without a fight.

Tony also watched the final game between the two sides on TV, although he knew that the Knicks basically had no hope of going out, but at the end of the game, watching the man who claimed to be the king of New York leave a lonely back in the shocking cheers of the Chicago fans, he still had some mixed feelings in his heart.

Although Patrick Ewing has been questioned throughout his career, he knows very well how much energy this man has in his body, and as the first opponent of Tony's career, he has a lot of respect for this man.

He also sincerely hopes that Ewing can win a championship in the next career in his career, and he deserves this honor.

Game 1 of the NBA Finals will be played on June 1.

Before the game even started, the outside media was already predicting that Jordan would win the fourth FMVP of his career.

The Bulls' opponent, the Jazz, has always been a strong team in the West, but this year is the first time in their history that they have entered the Finals, and no one thinks that the Jazz can win compared to the Bulls, who have entered the Finals four times and won four championships.

Almost everyone thinks the Bulls will complete the defense of their title and start a second dynasty.

From the first game of the Finals, Kobe Bryant watched carefully.

His shooting posture is largely imitative of Jordan's, but his style of play is very different from Jordan's, Kobe Bryant is very capable of learning, he is not the kind of person who is easily satisfied, almost every game, he learns.

Therefore, it can also be seen that in just one season, Kobe's offensive skills have improved compared to before entering the NBA, and now Tony can no longer guard against him.

As the Finals progressed, the NBA's 96-97 season was drawing to a close.

Jessica has been busy filming lately and has no time to take care of Tony, which also gives Tony a chance to train.

June 13th.

The final matchup between the Jazz and the Bulls came to an end, and the Chicago Bulls eliminated the Utah Jazz with a score of 4-2 and successfully defended the championship.

Karl Malone and Stockton averaged 23.8 points, 10.3 boards, 3.5 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.3 blocks per game and 15 points, 4 boards, 8.8 assists, 2 steals and 0.5 blocks per game in this series, but they couldn't bring a championship to the team.

Michael Jordan put on a historic performance in front of the Jazz, averaging 32.3 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks per game in six games, and was named the Most Valuable Player of the 96-97 Finals.

On TV, watching Jordan take over the trophy from Bill Russell, Tony clearly saw the unconcealable desire in Kobe's eyes.

He didn't speak, in fact, his heart was faintly moved, after working hard in the alliance for a year, he has gradually been attracted by this kind of competition, life in the world, standing at the peak of the alliance and looking at the mountains, isn't it happy.

But before that, it's important to polish your skills.

In the following days, Kobe and Toni ushered in their first business activities, after David Stern became the NBA commissioner, he paid more and more attention to the Chinese market, and Kobe and Tony, under the arrangement of Adidas, they will go to the other side of the world, the magical country of China.

Adidas has designed their own sneakers for them, and their mission is to travel to China for a friendly match.

The two young men were also full of curiosity about this magical country full of legends and gold, and the date of this trip to China was set for July 3, and the two of them had already prepared early.
