Chapter 119: I Have to Fight (Ask for Recommendation)
On April 7, 2009, U.S. time, an NBA highlight was played at the Arco Center, home of the Kings.
This is why this game is called the focus of the battle, not because of the home team, it can be said that today's home team is completely a supporting role, and the Lakers, as the away team, are the protagonists of this game! They were fighting the Cavaliers for the final league spot.
No. 1 in the league is very important in the eyes of both the Lakers and the Cavaliers, and this is no joke!
Today, the Cavaliers are all the way to the dust, killing all over the world, it is very likely that they will be like the year before last to reach the finals, and the West is also dominated by the Lakers, the Lakers are inevitable in the West, and the Cavaliers are also likely to dominate in the East, in this case, the regular season records on both sides are very important, the Lakers must not lose at this time, at the pre-game press conference, Phil Jackson also affirmed the Lakers' style of play, he said, he will never release water in this game.
Although the Lakers are now injured and unable to play, with Kobe, the combination of Gasol and Odom is enough to win the game on the road! At least in the West, there are really no strong teams that can come and fight the Lakers.
"Have you figured it out? That's a forty times the odds on the game, do you think that traitor to Kenny Knight will help you at home? Looking at Zhang Kong who walked into the stadium, Ma'ruf asked him with a sneer, forty times the odds are not a decimal.
"Of course!" Zhang Kong glanced at Maluf, and then walked into the locker room with a confident face, he was confident and not without reason, the phone call last night was not made by someone else, it was Xia Xueshan......
She just told Zhang Kong on the phone that she was paying attention to Zhang Kong's news every day, as well as the games he played, and at the same time she was very close, so Zhang Kong didn't have to worry, the phone between the two was more than an hour, during which Xia Xueshan was talking, and Zhang Kong was listening, Zhang Kong didn't know where Xia Xueshan's location was in his heart, a very chaotic person.
However, when he knew that Xia Xueshan would also watch it today, he still felt that his whole body was full of energy.
Maybe this is the legendary combination of men and women, don't get tired of working! Before Zhang Kong walked into the locker room, he took a deep breath, he must win this game, whether it is for himself or for ...... Myself!
This game is the focus of the battle in the United States, not only the league arranged a live broadcast in the United States, but ** TV station also sent its strongest commentary lineup, came to the scene to explain the game in person, Barkley and Kenny Smith just sat down, and began to introduce the players on the court in a wavering manner, the Lakers players are familiar to everyone, and the Kings players are a little unfamiliar! In this game, judging from the lineup alone, there is really no need to play.
The Lakers' side is strong, except for Sun Yue, Bynum is the one who can't play, and there are too many people on the Kings' side who can't play, their main scorer, Martin, is also out of action due to injury and can't play! And before Zhang Kong went on the court, he deliberately took off the shooting card and replaced it with a perfect figure card, so that his body increased on the court, and others didn't know.
It can't be said that half of the game is played, the referee will come and take a ruler to measure you, the increase in height and arm length is extremely beneficial to Zhang Kong.
Although the offense disappeared again, the scope of the defense was larger, and in the face of Kobe, Zhang Kong had to deal with it carefully.
"Let me give you an introduction to the list of appearances on the court, the Kings have done a little research on the lineup because of Martin's injury, the interior is partnered by Spencer Hawes and Jason Thompson, and the old guy Brad Miller is on the bench! The small forward position is played by John Salmons, and Salmons' stats have been pretty good lately! The partners in the backcourt are Zhang Kong and Bino Yudri, Yudri has had a lot of ups and downs in recent games, as for Zhang Kong, hehe...... Charles, how do you feel about this young man? Looking at Barkley next to him, Kenny Smith asked with a funny expression.
"He? He's just a defender, and a defender can never be an All-Star because their defense isn't good-looking, even if this kid can block it! Buckley looked at his partner next to him and pouted.
He has always been very fond of Chinese players, after all, Yao Ming was the one who kissed the ass of the donkey, so naturally he is not very friendly to other Chinese players, and he just pouted in the face of the recent super hot Zhang Kong in the league.
"Hehe, can I take this attitude of yours as jealousy? You must know that this little guy, the recent average of blocks per game has reached 9, an average of 9 blocks per game, tsk, this is also a miracle! Kenny Smith was acknowledging Zhangkong's defense, but that was only exchanged for Barkley's disdainful look, and he just didn't like it.
"Okay, let's bring back the topic of the young general Zhang Kong first! Let's introduce the Lakers' lineup again, Pau Gasol plays center on the Lakers' side, if this kid is still so soft, this year's Finals will also be a problem. Ramal Odom plays power forward, Trevor Ariza plays small forward, and backcourt partners are Black Mamba, Kobe Bryant and veteran Derrick Fisher! ”
"The Lakers' lineup, no matter how I look at it, I feel that it is not easy for them to lose!" Barkley, who was next to him, began to cheer for the Lakers, and although he didn't want to see the Lakers, he didn't want to see the Kings even more...... That's the truth!
"You're going to face Kobe Bryant today, didn't you ask?" Before Kenny Knight came out, he whispered to Zhang Kong.
Now that this is the home field, even Kenny Knight doesn't dare to play tricks under Marouf's nose, so he can't help it.
"Don't worry!" Zhang Kong nodded, followed Yudri out of the players' tunnel, and after the opening, the game officially began! Following the referee's gesture, Gasol and Hawes came to the center circle and were ready to jump the ball.
"Squeak!" As soon as the electronic synthesis bell rang, the orange ball slowly rose into the air, Gasol's experience was better than Hawes's after all, and before Hawes, he slapped the basketball directly to his upper left, and Kobe Bryant jumped up for the first time to take the basketball into his arms.
The first ball in the opening game, naturally, was handed over to the team's boss to solve, Kobe Bryant dribbled the ball and just wanted to break through, but found that there was a person standing in front of him, looking at the guy in front of him, Kobe was stunned for a moment, it seemed that the other party was going to stare at himself.
"Come on!" Zhang Kong nodded at Kobe Bryant, put on a defensive posture, the first goal of the opening game, the Lakers naturally wanted to play momentum, looking at the rookie in front of him, although Kobe also knew that this kid's defensive ability was amazing, but he didn't mean to retreat, the ball was handed over to his right hand, shaking easily, Kobe Bryant's feints were very much, but the feints were meaningless to Zhang Kong!
"It's really difficult!" Seeing that Zhang Kong easily recognized his feints, Kobe's eyes also flashed with a hint of sharpness.
Suddenly, he went down to his crotch, and then with his own speed, he forcibly cut to the inside line, but when it comes to speed, except for Wade's lightning first step, Zhang Kong is more difficult to defend, and other people Zhang Kong really doesn't scare him!
Xiao Crisp Step fell back, Zhang Kong directly blocked Kobe Bryant in front of a horizontal move, although his offense is not good, but the defense is absolutely Da Na, looking at Zhang Kong in front of him, Kobe also knows that it is impossible to dodge the opponent's defense so easily, seeing that Zhang Kong's position has stood in his most awkward position, if it is another player, it may stop, or pass the ball, but Kobe Bryant is very calm and instantly pulled the ball, with his left foot as the axis, wanting to lean on Zhang Kong's body to complete a turnAs long as this turn is successful, the empty space will be leaned against by himself.
Seeing Kobe's movements, the corners of Zhang Kong's mouth showed a smile, he just stood and let Kobe lean behind him, completed a turn, and made a front basket, but just when Kobe was about to get up and go to the basket, Zhang Kong moved!
A big stride chased Kobe Bryant's left side, and just as Kobe took off, Zhang Kong also jumped up! He's ready to be capped!
