On Sunday, December 8, the Lakers host the Minnesota Timberwolves. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info after defeating the Magic, almost everyone is optimistic that the Lakers do not need to spend too much effort to defeat the Timberwolves, which are not strong, but the final result of the game surprised everyone, although Kobe Bryant is still brave, scoring 27 points, but the Timberwolves selected Stephen Marbury this year and Kevin Garnett, the No. 5 pick last season, but they collectively exerted, they cut 21 points, 12 assists, 3 boards and 25 points, 10 boards and 5 assists respectively, to 102: 100 two points narrowly beat the Lakers.

Tony didn't feel very good in this game, he had 13 points and 5 rebounds on 5-of-12 shooting, and Garnett managed to suppress him inside.

Coincidentally, the final score was still 102-100 when the Lakers challenged the Kings in Sacramento on December 10, the same two-point difference, but this time it was the Lakers who won.

In the whole game, Tony scored 20 points and 7 boards, and Kobe Bryant handed over 23 points, and the young duo combined to defeat the Kings led by Richmond.

No. 11 returned to the home court to play back-to-back, the Lakers and the Indiana Pacers fought hard to the end, the final score was 76:79, the Lakers won by 3 points, not so much a stalemate game, it is better to use the iron competition to describe it more appropriately, Hawley, who has always been known for his stable shooting, made a total of 7 3-point shots, but only hit a pitiful 1 shot, and Kobe Bryant did not have the outstanding performance of the previous games, today he seemed to be unable to get along with the basket, and he did not hit some goals that usually seemed very easy, 4-of-17 in normal games, scoring only 10 points. Toni wasn't much better than Kobe Bryant, and he scored just seven points on 3-of-10 shooting, but thankfully grabbed 18 rebounds and held the Lakers' restricted area.

The Lakers are playing iron all over the team, and the Pacers are no exception, although the legendary pitcher Reggie Miller shot 2 of 5 three-pointers and the shooting rate was passable, he only hit 3 of 15 shots in the whole game, that is, excluding three-pointers, Miller shot 1 of 10.

Such a game naturally made the fans drowsy, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter, some fans had even left the arena.

For them, this kind of competition is as disgusting as spending a lot of money on a bad movie in the cinema.

After a little rest, the Lakers played another game against the Portland Trail Blazers at home, and the two sides fought until overtime, the Lakers lost 129-130, and the Trail Blazers' starting center Lithuanian giant Arvidas Sabonis claimed to be the only one who could resist O'Neal's strength, but he was a little helpless in the face of the more flexible Tony.

Tony easily swept a big double-double of 23 points and 15 boards, and grabbed back-to-back offensive rebounds when the team fell behind at the end, and although the Lakers ultimately lost, Toney's performance was perfect.

Kobe Bryant restarted the god-killing mode, he shot 13 of 28, got 35 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, but unfortunately failed to help the team win.

And regrettably, the Lakers not only lost, they also lost a big player Eddie Jones, the team doctor Waiti gave the news that the right foot meniscus strain, need to recuperate for 4 to 6 weeks, which means that the Lakers will not see Jones in the next month to a month and a half. This news made the entire Lakers team very uncomfortable.

Jones has been the team's third scoring option since this season, he has the ability to score independently, and he does not possess the ball, his presence can take a large part of the offensive pressure for Kobe, this time his injury, the Lakers' future outside offensive pressure is basically all on Kobe Bryant.

Jones has a humble personality, never considers himself an old bird, and often mingles with the Lakers' rookies, Tony and others have always regarded him as a big brother in their hearts, and his injury makes the whole team a little sad.

After all, no one wants to see an injury happen, but since it happens, they can only accept it, and the game will not stop because someone is injured.

The entire Lakers team did not leave after the game, and they went to Jones' home en masse to visit him under the leadership of Fisher.

Jones, who had a cast on his right leg and was in a wheelchair, was greeted by his wife, who blessed him with a speedy recovery.

Jones thanked his teammates one by one, and these actions warmed his heart.

The Lakers then got three days off, and Tony was pleasantly surprised to find that Bryant had started dating the girl named Vanessa after training.

This guy is really enlightened.

Since he met Kobe, Kobe has dated a girl, that is, the female singer Brandi who plays rap, but he knows that this is actually the arrangement of Kobe's parents, Kobe himself has not had feelings for Brandi, this time the girl Kobe Bryant is so attentive, it is a good thing for him.

.......

Three days later, the Lakers' opponent this time is very special, not only for the Lakers, but also for Kobe, which is arguably the most important game since he entered the NBA, and it is even more important than the game against the 76ers.

Because, the opponent that the Lakers are going to meet is Michael Jordan, the god of basketball.

On December 17, the Lakers challenged the Bulls in Chicago.

It was a nationally streamed game.

The rookie combination of Kobe and Tony has brought great surprises to people so far this season, because Kobe's shooting posture, backward movements and many other technical characteristics are very similar to Jordan, just like a mini version of Jordan.

However, in the face of the real Jordan, people want to see how much energy this young lad can burst out.

As the players from both sides began to enter the field, the Chicago live commentary began to introduce the lineups of both sides.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight's game is against the Los Angeles Lakers, who have a 14-10 record so far this season, and they have to say that they have some good youngsters. However, I'm sure the crowd in the audience will be interested in Michael getting a few points tonight. The narrator teased and continued.

"The Bulls are 20-3 so far this season, and the Lakers' starting small forward Eddie Jones was injured in the last game, so I don't think there's much suspense that the Bulls will win this game."

Let's take a look at the lineups, the Bulls starting lineup is Ron Harper, Bill Winnington, Dennis Rodman, Scott Pippen, oh! And last, there is one more, Michael ~~~ Jordan!! ”

When Jordan's name was spoken, the commentary deliberately elongated the tone.

Jordan waved his hand to the audience with a smile on his face, which immediately triggered a tsunami-like cheer.
