Tony was also shocked in his heart, he knew that his talent was very good, and he always thought that even if he was put in the NBA, he was the top category, and the last confrontation with Ewing made him a little paralyzed, and he vaguely felt that those superstars were just like that.

However, this ball completely subverted his cognition, and for the first time he felt a deep sense of powerlessness, the powerlessness that he couldn't stop the other party even with all his might.

For the first time, he also clearly recognized the gap between superstars and ordinary players.

The 20+10 of the average player and the 20+10 of the superstar are still not at the same level, maybe the average player will get beautiful stats in some games because of the feeling of the explosion or the smooth operation of the team's tactics, but the superstar is the kind of person who wants to score, no matter how many people come to defend, I can still put the ball in the basket, the only one who can stop them is themselves.

And he suddenly remembered that he had overlooked, even the aging gorilla, that matchup still got 40 points and 12 boards on his head, even if it was because of Ewing's simple style of play, Tony didn't feel too shocked, but that data was there.

Tony fought desperately against Ewing to win the game, and he even stimulated his potential to finally score 32 points, but 40 points for Ewing was just because he met an interesting opponent and gave him the desire to score.

That's the gap! The gap between him and the top inside!

Suddenly, a desire erupted in his heart, a desire to be strong, he wanted to be as strong as Ewing and Olajuwon.

He wants to be like them, to stand on another level in the NBA, to be the kind of person they want to score not so many points!

The game went on and Tony was completely out of the game and he started to study Olajuwon in the confrontation, his footwork, his details, everything he had shown so far.

The Rockets are a team of kings, they didn't take it too seriously, but they still suppressed the Lakers from beginning to end.

Instead of preying on the Lakers like an upstart, they firmly controlled their rhythm and kept the point difference at around 10, regardless of whether the Lakers tried to chase the points or give up the game, they kept it at about 10.

That's what a championship team is all about.

With the red light on, the game ended.

In the end, the Lakers lost to the Rockets 101:113 by 12 points, and the difference of 12 points is no more, no less, but those who have watched the game know that this is an absolutely crushing game.

The most frustrating was Kobe Bryant, who scored 20 points on 9-of-15 shooting in the game, but it couldn't help his team win. Tony also got a good stat of 17 points and 10 boards, but he knew that his real gain was the opportunity to play against Olajuwon this time.

At the press conference, the Rockets, who were the winners, looked pampered and unfazed, and they had extended their winning streak to seven after this game.

The journalist did not dig out too many bright spots from them.

On the contrary, Olajuwon and Drexler, two god-level figures, are full of praise for the Lakers' two rookies, Kobe Bryant and Toney.

"Kobe Bryant is a very competitive opponent, he looks like a veteran bird who has been in the league for years, I don't see a trace of a rookie in him, and he may be able to surpass me in the future." Drakster, the third, or second-percentile in history, said of Kobe Bryant.

"Tony is a cunning guy, and I can even tell that he actually studied my moves during the game, and he was able to add them to the fights that followed. Oh my God, are all high school students like this now? Looks like it's time for us old people to retire. "Olajuwon has a lot of humor.

......

The Lakers didn't stay in Houston for long, and they rushed to San Antonio non-stop.

San Antonio Spurs, they have always been a strong team in the league, but not including this season, their leading players announced the season reimbursement in the offseason, and the newly appointed Spurs coach Popovich also pinned his hopes on Dominic Wilkins, who just joined this season, but the former human movie essence is obviously no longer able to assume the responsibility of leadership, the opening 1-5 record made Popovich immediately decided, and the Spurs directly entered the pendulum mode this season.

However, even so, the Lakers still won't have it easy to win.

Popovich has clearly inherited the mantle of his mentor, veteran coach Larry Brown, and his coaching ability is firmly superior to Harris's.

Thankfully, Tony, Bryant and Jones were in good shape, and in the final half minute of the final quarter, Jones' experience came into play, as he stole Wilkins and assisted Bryant's fast-break to seal the win for the Lakers, who won 99-96 with a three-point advantage.

Tony made 8 of 13 shots, scoring 20 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks; Bryant finished with 22 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists on 8-of-17 shooting, while Jones finished with 28 points, 3 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals on 10-of-14 shooting.

For the Spurs, except for Dominic Wilkins, who shot 10-of-19 and 4-of-9 from three-point range, he scored 28 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. Helplessly, two fists are hard to beat four hands, except for him, no one in the Spurs scored 20,.

The Lakers relied entirely on the one-on-one trio of Tony Kobe Jones to win the Spurs with difficulty.

After finally ending the back-to-back, the Lakers only got a day's respite after returning to Los Angeles, and ushered in the city derby and Clippers.

The Lakers are a little tired from this intensive schedule, but thankfully, their opponents, the Clippers, are not much better than the Lakers, and they don't even have a star to handle.

The Clippers and Lakers are also in Los Angeles, and both teams even use the same arena, but the treatment of the two teams is very different.

The Lakers can be said to be a symbol of Los Angeles, they have basically not been in the doldrums since they moved to the Lakers from Minneapolis in 1960, and in almost every period, they have had a superstar in the league to join, and when the Lakers did not enter the playoffs for two consecutive years from 74 to 76, and with the emergence of Magic Johnson, he led the SHOWTIME to help the Lakers quickly complete the revival and return to the ranks of championship teams.

On the other hand, the Clippers have not even made the playoffs since their establishment, so although the Lakers have gradually begun to decline with Johnson's retirement in recent years, Los Angeles is still a city for the Lakers.

In the entire Forum Arena, there are basically no fans wearing Clippers jerseys, all of them are purple and gold.

In the face of such a young team that has not been established for a few years, the Lakers' defense has obviously slackened, and even Harris repeatedly emphasized that it will not help.

But fortunately, Eddie Jones ushered in an explosion, he shot 11 of 19 from the field and 3 of 6 three-pointers to grab 32 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and Tony also cut a big double-double of 23 points and 11 boards, helping the Lakers beat the Clippers 107-100.

The Lakers also managed to maintain a winning rate of more than 50% with a 5-4 record.
