Chapter 254: Kobe Bryant who is not at the peak (9300 word chapters)

The star-making movement of the NBA league has never stopped, and the appearance of Jeremy Lin has suddenly made many fans begin to pay attention to this shrinking season.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the media in New York jumped up and down, seized the hot news, and frantically promoted Jeremy Lin's inspirational story.

From losing the draft without a ball to play, to leading the Knicks to consecutive wins and becoming the team's core guard, although the counterattack drama is cliché, Amelica fans still never get tired of watching it.

And Jeremy Lin's crazy performance reached a complete climax on Valentine's Day on February 14, when the Knicks and Raptors who were playing away were tied.

In the final moments of the game, Jeremy Lin faced Calderon's defense and successfully hit the stunner, which made Lin's crazy story completely break the circle!

With the blessing of various media, Jeremy Lin has even become the representative of Amerikamon, and for the Thunder team who are far away in Russia, Jeremy Lin's performance can only become everyone's post-game conversation, after all, the data of Kim's thigh is really scary.

On February 19, the NBA league once again announced the Player of the Week of the Week for Week 8.

In the Eastern Conference, the Heat had a 4-0 record this week, and LeBron James successfully won the award with an average of 27.3 points, 8.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 2.0 turnovers per game.

In the Western Conference, the Thunder only had three games in this week, and won all three games with the Jazz, Rockets, and Warriors, and Li Ze was successfully elected as the Player of the Week again with an average of 24.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.3 turnovers per game.

Although the statistics of the two look mediocre, LeBron James shot 57.1% from the field and 46.2% from three-point range, and Li Ze soared to 58.1% from the field and 43.5% from three-point range.

Both of them entered the 180 club, and the efficiency exploded completely, no matter how hot Lin was crazy, when Amerika's ball critics saw such data, many people dropped their jaws directly, this is really heavenly!

What's even more surprising is that the average playing time of the two is only 31.5 minutes, which is really unbelievable.

After Li Ze received the crystal trophy of the week at home, he just smiled slightly, this thing is really about to be put down at home.

The Thunder's final week before the All-Star break was all at home, and although it was another two back-to-back games, the schedule was relatively easy.

After easy victories over the Hornets and Nuggets, Amerika's reporters once again sang the praises of the Thunder's performance.

In the next game, after the trio beat the Celtics' senior triumvirate 104-124, TNT's program directly shouted the slogan of the Thunder championship.

At the same time, tomorrow night's back-to-back home games against the Lakers have also attracted the attention of many fans, the Thunder swept the Lakers in last year's playoffs, and the two teams will meet again in the new season, can the Lakers complete their revenge?

In the pre-game warm-up, Amerika's media reporters even attributed the reason for the resignation of head coach Phil Jackson to the Thunder, who were swept out of the Western Conference semifinals, and the old Buss no longer trusted the championship coach!

On the morning of February 23, the Thunder team simply conducted recovery training, and Durant immediately complained about the media reports last night:

"Now the media is becoming more and more unlimited, obviously the annual salary is not negotiated, the Lakers will not refuse the championship coach, maybe he has long wanted to quit this job."

"Don't forget that Phil Jackson is still the son-in-law of the elder Bass, and there was a report two days ago that was well written, perhaps related to the internal shares of the Bass family."

Li Ze has also seen a lot of news about the infighting in the Bass family recently, which is worthy of a large-scale sports reality show, and this kind of palace fight scene may be directly filmed into an American drama.

"No wonder Kobe Bryant has taken so many shots this season, Mike Brown's coaching style is the same as ever, maybe we can guess how many shots Kobe will take tonight."

Turtle took advantage of the break to look at the Lakers data listed by the assistant coach, and then immediately complained about Kobe's shots, and everyone in the atmosphere group also coaxed and said:

"It won't be less than 20, and I guess if the game goes to the fourth quarter, Kobe Bryant will take at least 24 shots!"

"Under Kayce's defense, I think Kobe Bryant will play more reasonably, 20 times is the limit, and if you play iron frequently, the Lakers will definitely lose early."

"Black Mamba doesn't care about the data, I guarantee the ticket, the more Kayce has defensive pressure, the more it will arouse Kobe's fighting spirit, 28 shots!"

Li Ze saw that his teammates began to bet frantically, and he was immediately speechless, and there were also pressures on 30 shots, do you really think that Kobe's physical strength bar is unlimited

On the evening of the 23rd, Russian City fans entered the Chesapeake Energy Arena early, and for more than a week, the fans celebrated the New Year every day, and the Thunder swept their opponents in almost every game.

"Every time I come to the city, I feel the excitement of the scene, the highest attendance in the league for two consecutive seasons, and the enthusiasm of the fans here is incredible."

On the TNT commentary seat, Steve Cole observed his surroundings and couldn't help but praise the Russian fans again.

"This is also the impact of the team's good record, the Thunder currently have a 31-2 record, seven wins ahead of the second-place Spurs, if nothing else, the Thunder can still finish first in the regular season this year."

Reggie Miller looked at the data in his hand and sighed, after many back-to-back games, the Thunder's record is still very stable, and the young team is dominating the league.

"Although there has been a change of coach this season, Mike Brown has also shown his coaching quality, 20-13, and the Lakers seem to be getting better!"

Steve Cole's face was a little strange when he heard the words of commentator Kevin Harlan, but he didn't want to speak ill of Mike Brown on the live broadcast, and giving the ball to Kobe Bryant was not a good tactic.

Mike Brown, as a black coach, naturally cherished the opportunity to coach the Lakers.

Although he can't completely control the superstars on the team like Phil Jackson, Mike Brown has also summed up a set of ways to get along with superstars by coaching LeBron James.

Give the ball to the star players on the court, and the others do a good job of defense and rebounding, and by the way, it is enough to wait for the cake, and after coming to the Lakers, Mike Brown has determined his own tactical system, triangle offense? It's outdated!

6 sets of core tactics, each set is directed at Kobe, all the goal is to let Kobe Bryant receive the ball in a comfortable position, and then it is gone, and the rest depends on the individual play of the superstar.

However, there was something wrong with tonight's game, more than 5 minutes in the first quarter, Mike Brown on the sidelines frowned, the tactics did play, and Kobe Bryant also received the ball in a comfortable position, but the last few offenses have been Bangbang

"Oh!"

The Russian city fans at the scene saw that Kobe Bryant was under Li Ze's defense, and he hit a piece of iron again, and immediately broke out into huge cheers.

The rebound was protected by Ibaka under the basket, and noticed that the Lakers had quickly retreated, and the turtle who received the ball was no longer in a hurry, and slowly dribbled through the halfcourt.

“OKC! OKC! OKC! ”

Ibaka and Perkins both stood on the left and right elbows of the free throw line, and the turtle directly gave the ball to Li Ze on the left wing outside the three-point line, at which time Ibaka came to the three-point line to cover.

Kobe Bryant has been paying attention to Ibaka's movements, and as soon as he stood still, he immediately chose to stick to the guard to facilitate the squeeze, and at the same time made a gesture to Pau Gasol, signaling that there must be a big delay.

Standing still, Li Ze immediately put the ball with his left hand, slightly raised the center of gravity of his body, and after simply dribbling the ball under his crotch, he chose to break through on the right side.

Kobe squeezed through for the first time, Li Ze noticed that Gasol's defense also followed, and then suddenly lowered the center of gravity of his body, suddenly pushed the ball to the left front with his right hand, and then squeezed directly from the encirclement of the two.

The left hand controlled the ball again, and then accelerated with all his strength, and Kobe, who squeezed through the cover, was hit by Li Ze and stumbled, and he didn't have time to defend at all, so he could only watch Li Ze rush to the inside.

In the cheers of the Russian city fans at the scene, Li Ze, who came to the paint area and jumped with both feet, ignored Bynum, who jumped up and blocked, grabbed the ball with one hand with his left hand, and after the aerial confrontation, directly wheeled the ball into the basket!

"Boom!"

“Slam dunk!”

“OH! What a play by Kayce! ”

Commentator Kevin Harlan immediately cheered for Li Ze's wonderful dunk, and Bynum almost hit the street after landing, he could clearly feel that Li Ze's strength seemed to be stronger than last season, and this impact was about to catch up with James.

Before Li Ze, who succeeded in dunking, had time to pretend to be X, the excited turtle turtle rushed up to hug him and jumped and jumped as soon as possible, and his mouth made a strange scream, and his teammates also coaxed, and everyone celebrated under the basket together

Just in time for the official timeout of the game, Bryant first glared at Bynum with a death gaze, then walked back to the bench with a pulled face, Mike Brown took the tactical board and symbolically said two, and then immediately sent out a thick chicken soup.

"On the offensive end we have to believe in each other, on the defensive end we have to speed up the rotation, Fisher, slow down the tempo, we need to attack positionally!"

Hearing the head coach's words, Fisher was already numb at this time, every time he encountered the backcourt of the Thunder team, it was his most painful time, he really wanted to say that it was useless to slow down the pace, but considering Kobe's emotions, he could only nod silently.

In the second half of the first quarter, Kobe Bryant's hand finally warmed up, and through Bynum's cover, he immediately came to the right elbow of the free throw line to receive the ball, and in the face of Li Ze's defense, he broke through to the baseline with the ball in his right hand.

A sudden change of pace in the middle of the march, and then against Li Ze's block, Bryant drifted to the right and threw a large backward jumper.

"Huh!" The two-pointer was a tough score.

After the goal, Kobe Bryant was still expressionless, just glanced at Li Ze coldly, and then quickly retreated, Li Ze was speechless, if he remembered correctly, Kobe Bryant is currently 2 of 7

Li Ze was substituted with 3 minutes and 12 seconds left in the first quarter of the game, and the Thunder led by 5 points when he got off the court, and the pace of the game in the first quarter was not fast, Li Ze was 3 of 4, relying on a breakthrough, and easily scored 6 points.

In the remaining three minutes, the Lakers played directly for 24 seconds, and at the same time strengthened the rush of rebounding in the front court, in this case, the difference did not continue to be expanded, 23:28, the Thunder finally ended the first quarter with a 5-point lead.

After the start of the second quarter of the game, Steve Kerr couldn't help but complain on the commentary bench when he saw the Lakers' rotation lineup:

"The Lakers should really keep Odom, and in the current rotation, most of the scoring depends on Gasol, Steve Blake, Andrew Goodlock, and Matt Barnes on the outside are not very good at scoring, and Troy Murphy on the inside has problems with his rim protection."

Reggie Miller also wanted to complain, but before he could speak, he saw Li Ze directly play a No. 5 high-post blocking tactic with Collison after half time, easily getting rid of Matt Barnes's defense, and shooting a three-point jumper at the top of the arc.

“Kayce! Hits the three! That's good! ”

Commentator Kevin Harlan got more and more excited, Troy Murphy was numb, Li Ze's shot was too fast, and the delay was too late to make the exciting three-point shot make the Russian fans on the scene also excited:

“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”

Steve Blake had just dribbled past half the court, heard the rhythmic defensive cheers on the scene, and glanced at Li Ze, who was defending him in front of him, and was a little stunned in his heart.

Li Ze chose to stick to the defense for the first time and forced the opponent to pass, and then the Lakers' offense began to fall backwards, and Gasol didn't get too good a chance at the free throw line, and then immediately signaled Blake to take over the hand-over pass.

Covering outside the three-point line, delaying Li Ze's pursuit at the first time, but Blake was not confident and failed to shoot at the first time when there was a gap, but took an extra step with his left hand.

The combination bonus of the golden [Bronze Wall] + [Death Winding] badge made Li Ze very aggressive when defending the block, and seeing that Blake hesitated before making a jump shot, Li Ze successfully interfered on his side.

The long two points hit the iron again, the rebound ball popped up, and it fell directly into the hands of Li Ze, and then immediately launched a conversion attack, this time Andrew Goodlock immediately chose a tactical foul.

"Shh

The Russian fans at the scene were very dissatisfied with such a foul, and immediately broke out into huge boos, and when Li Ze dribbled through the half again, Matt Barnes immediately came to Li Ze.

The "V" attack, Ibaka and Collison came to the left and right elbow areas, Cook and Sofrosa sank to the left and right corners, and Gasol immediately reminded Troy Murphy loudly as soon as he saw the Thunder's offensive formation:

"Delayed!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand outside the three-point line, shook his body to the right, and then changed direction sharply in front of his body.

Matt Barnes' defensive center of gravity just shifted to the left, and Li Ze's left hand changed direction under his hip very quickly, lowering his center of gravity and turning his hip to exert force with his left foot, accelerating directly.

The Russian fans at the scene only saw Li Ze snap twice, Matt Barnes's defense was gone, and immediately broke out into huge cheers, Troy Murphy just delayed, but couldn't keep up with Li Ze's speed, and was easily broken through.

Seeing that there was no one under the basket, Li Ze, who rushed up, stretched his body in the air, easily pulled the lever, and made a reflexive slam dunk!

"Boom!" Break through the storm dunk and succeed!

"Wonderful breakthrough! Coach Mike Brown should consider getting his main lineup back. ”

Steve Kerr does know Mike Brown very well, and seeing that Li Ze can't be limited, the Lakers immediately asked for a timeout, and then regained the main lineup, and Kobe Bryant rested for more than a minute in the second quarter and could only play early.

When the Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant received the ball at the left elbow area of the free throw line after covering, and saw Li Ze's defense sticking very close, swaying right and left, exerting enough strength, and breaking through with cross-step dribbling.

Li Ze successfully anticipated Kobe's offensive options, sliding backwards while always pressing the defense on his side, forcing Bryant to stop the ball in the blocking area.

The annoyed Kobe Bryant did not choose to pass the ball, but after shaking, he resisted Li Ze's block and forcibly threw a backward jumper.

As soon as the ball came out of his hand, Li Ze immediately jumped up and sent out the volleyball cap and directly fanned the ball out of the sideline!

The exaggerated block made the turtle and Durant on the sidelines jump and jump, frantically threw up the towel, and the atmosphere group also screamed, Li Ze, who had completed the block, shook his finger at Kobe Bryant with a cold boss, and then the referee immediately blew the whistle:

"Squeak!" The referee immediately blew for a technical foul on Li Ze.

"Hey! Brat! Be respectful! ”

Matt Barnes put on a vicious expression, and jumped out for the first time to help the boss vent, but when he saw Li Ze turn his head and leave, he left the back of his head, and he almost exploded in anger, obviously not looking down on him

Ibaka saw that the other party still wanted to step forward, so he immediately went up and pushed it directly, and Sovrosa and Collison also immediately surrounded him, and Fisher saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly went up to pull everyone away.

Kobe Bryant was naturally choked by Li Ze's actions, and after completing the free throw, he immediately turned on the mamba mode, and in the next few minutes, he faced Li Ze's crazy singles on defense.

And Li Ze's defensive skills, with the addition of the golden badge, have completely bid farewell to the rookie stage.

[Ankle Guard] + [Marking Master] makes him rarely shake when he is alone, and [Copper Wall] + [Death Winding] + [Defensive Deterrence] makes him extremely aggressive when defending against blocking and dismantling.

The most important thing is that Kobe Bryant's physical explosiveness has declined as he gets older, and his superb skills have been comprehensively suppressed by Li Ze's oppressive defense.

The Lakers began to clatter the iron, which made the Thunder always have the opportunity to switch offense, no need to throw three-pointers at all, and did not need to attack the position, and the difference soon came to 13 points.

At the end of the half, the score of the two sides was 43:58, and after Li Ze went off the break in the second quarter, Durant and Turtle Turtle widened the difference again, and the Russian fans on the scene began to revel, and the Lakers were already out of breath!

"Kobe Bryant was completely suppressed by Kayce on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, scoring only 10 points on 4-of-14 shooting in the half, and if he wants to recover the difference in the second half, he has to share the ball on the offensive end!"

Reggie Miller didn't want to play too early, and bluntly pointed out the Lakers' problems at halftime, and Steve Kerr looked at the technical statistics in his hand and nodded.

"Kayce scored 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting from the field and 1-of-1 from three-point range in the half, and most of the points were scored through transitions or breakaways, and the Lakers really needed to improve their shooting percentage, and when it came to rebounding, Ibaka did a really good job in the first half."

The two discussed the Lakers' strategy in the second half in the commentary box, and in the visiting team's locker room, Coach Mike Brown looked at Kobe Bryant, who was obviously above him, and didn't say anything, but patted Kobe Bryant's shoulder encouragingly, and let it go

After the start of the third quarter, the Thunder took the lead in attacking, and the turtle, who had just dribbled past half court, suddenly changed direction in front of Fisher's defensive ball, and then accelerated directly with the ball in his left hand and went straight into the restricted area.

Li Ze saw the turtle break through successfully on the right wing of the three-point line, and immediately started, and after dangling to the line, with the help of Perkins' cover, he suddenly ran back and cut in.

Kobe Bryant's defense was covered and hung up and directly out of position, and Bynum didn't react when he followed the defense, and the turtle in the breakthrough sent a high throw pass with his left hand, although the ball was a little high, but Li Ze, who jumped high, still managed to catch the ball.

After a short period of time, in the cheers of the Russian city fans, Li Ze grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand, stretched his body and pulled his arms back, and the powerful tomahawk-style violent buckle!

“OH! Beautiful pass! ”

The offense was completed in an instant, commentator Kevin Harlan shouted excitedly, and the Russian City fans at the scene began to cheer for the wonderful empty dunk.

The turtle who gave the assist first completed a set of bells and whistles with Li Ze to celebrate, and then screamed while returning to the defense, looking very excited, and when the Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant seemed to regain his composure and began to hit the ball inside.

As a result, Bynum faced Perkins' defense, played high, played stiff iron under the basket, and the rebound was protected by Ibaka, and then sent the ball directly to Li Ze.

After receiving the pass, he dribbled the ball with his left hand sharply in the middle of the march, and then immediately changed direction sharply in front of his body, completely shaking off Kobe's delay, and Li Ze continued to accelerate with his left hand on the ball.

Noticing that Durant on the right was unguarded, he immediately sent a long-distance ground pass, the latter received the ball, rushed up directly in three steps, and easily completed the one-handed split dunk in the cheers of the Russian city fans!

"Boom!" Convert the dunk to get it!

Durant, who successfully dunked, stood under the basket and beat his chest, while Li Ze glanced back and saw that Artest had given up chasing defense, and he was suddenly a little surprised in his heart.

Seeing that the point difference continued to widen, Kobe Bryant seemed to want to stand up to save the team, and after Fisher dribbled past half court, he immediately asked for the ball outside the three-point line, faced Li Ze's defense, and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand after three threats.

Feeling the defensive pressure from his side, Kobe Bryant, who broke through to the right blocking position, immediately began to play with his back to the back, and after switching to holding the ball in his left hand, he slammed and slammed, and then shook his body, wanting to take a step up and down after closing the ball.

But at the moment when the ball was exposed, Li Ze, who had been prepared, immediately cut the ball vigorously with his right hand, and after Kobe Bryant dropped the ball, he reacted very quickly and controlled the ball for the first time, and Li Ze also pounced at this time, holding the ball firmly with both hands.

Kobe Bryant has been on fire in this game, and when he saw that Li Ze was about to break the ball again, he immediately followed suit, and the two hugged the ball almost at the same time, and the two sides were completely entangled in the paint area.

When the referee blew for the scrum, the angry Kobe couldn't help but curse:

"Shet!"

There was no suspense in the jump ball, with excellent bounce, Li Ze successfully jumped back the ball for the Thunder team, which made the Russian fans on the scene cheer again, this time the Thunder team attacked, playing a different tactic from the previous game.

On the right side of the turtle and Durant's local 2-on-2, Ibaka sank near the baseline and waited to eat the cake.

After Durant broke through the ball, the turtle at the top of the arc received the ball again, and at this time, Li Ze in the bottom left corner suddenly started, and took advantage of Perkins' sudden upper cover to easily come to the left wing outside the three-point line.

Seeing Li Ze run out of the open space, the turtle immediately sent a horizontal pass, and Bynum's defensive attention was just on the breakthrough Durant, and the Thunder quickly transferred the ball, making the big man's reaction half a beat slower.

And when Kobe Bryant was chasing the defense in place, Li Ze had already made a quick jump shot at a position one step away from the left wing of the three-point line!

“BANG! Kayce From downtown! ”

The long-distance three-point shot once again made the commentator Kevin Harlan shout passionately, and Li Ze, who threw in the three-point shot, smiled at Kobe Bryant, and then raised his hands to accept the cheers of the fans at the scene.

Coach Mike Brown on the sidelines felt that the atmosphere at the Chesapeake Energy Arena was getting hotter and hotter, and he was a little dazed that the Thunder's offense was too violent

Although Gasol hit the basket several times in the next game, Bynum kept playing iron, and as a last resort, Kobe Bryant began to break through with the ball frantically and stood at the free throw line for several consecutive rounds.

However, due to the fact that the defensive end also consumed a huge amount of physical energy, Kobe Bryant's projection could not find his touch at all, and the last attack of the third quarter game, Kobe suddenly started with 10 seconds left.

The right hand suddenly dribbled behind his back, then the ball was accelerated with his left hand, the free throw line was cross-stepped, and the ball was pulled back, and then the ball was shaky, Kobe Bryant saw that Li Ze was not shaken at all, and he was very depressed, and finally defended and forced a jump shot from the middle distance.

"Buzz"

"Bang!"

The timer buzzed, and Kobe Bryant finally hit another iron, 1 of 4 in the single quarter, 6 of 7 free throws, and only scored 8 points, while the Lakers, who were attacking and pulling their hips, only scored 19 points in this quarter, dreaming of returning to the Western Conference semifinals.

At 62:88, at the end of the third quarter, the Thunder had a 26-point lead.

The Lakers who returned to the bench were already stunned, and Coach Mike Brown was completely dumbfounded. In this quarter of the game, there were many conversions, and most of the big points difference was caused by the conversion of 3 points.

Kobe Bryant sat in his seat with a hideous expression, constantly gasping for breath, and after drinking a large sip of water, he directly threw the kettle on the floor, the big guy was angry, and the atmosphere group didn't dare to speak.

Coach Brooks thought that the Lakers would change to the bench lineup, after all, the point difference was already so big, but when he saw that the opponent was still playing the main team, he immediately had a question mark in his head, and out of politeness, the Thunder team also chose the main lineup to play.

Li Ze didn't care about playing a little longer, at the beginning of the second half of the game, he basically focused on defense and three-point shooting, and by the way, he also ran in a new three-point strategy, so his physical strength was not consumed too much.

And Kobe Bryant in the 4th quarter was completely unable to rush, but the stubborn Black Mamba was about to shoot, and after missing two three-pointers, he began to throw up the mid-range.

The result was naturally Bang Bang striking iron, suffering two waves of conversion, being thrown into a long-distance three-pointer by Li Ze, and being beaten into a 2+1 by Durant, and the point difference directly exceeded 30.

The three people on the TNT commentary bench didn't know what to say, such a game actually didn't make any sense, the Lakers couldn't score 30 points in a quarter, and it was impossible to complete the chase at all.

In the first half of the 4th quarter, Kobe Bryant made a crazy shot, and the black mamba on top didn't even want to cover, but he was defended by Li Ze with 2 of 7.

Every time the iron was struck, the Russian fans would cheer, but when the official timeout, Kobe Bryant, who broke the big defense, finally calmed down, put a towel on his head, and completely closed himself.

Head coach Mike Brown also breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly changed to the atmosphere group to consume the rest of the time.

In the end, in the cheers of the Russian city fans, 90:116, the Thunder team playing at home defeated the Lakers, and before the All-Star weekend, they won 11 consecutive victories again.

After the game, the two sides still shook hands very friendly, after all, it was the All-Star Weekend holiday, so everyone was in a very good mood, only Kobe Bryant pulled his face, didn't say a word, and turned his head and walked back to the players' tunnel after shaking hands.

At this time, Li Ze was being interviewed by TNT reporters on the sidelines, and he played 39 minutes in this game, 12 of 18, including 4 of 6 three-pointers and 6 of 6 free throws, and scored a game-high 34 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 block and 2 turnovers.

"Congratulations, Kayce, you're on an 11-game winning streak before the All-Star break, what's your plan for this All-Star weekend?"

Li Ze saw the blonde reporter Christina Ledlow secretly throwing a wink at him, and he felt a little helpless, but on the surface he replied with a smile:

"You know, we've played two back-to-back games in a row recently, and we've only had one day off in between, so I'm going to have a good rest for a few days, and of course, I'm going to give it my all in the All-Star Game."

Christina Ledlow then asked two more questions about non-nutrition, and then took advantage of the handshake to quietly hand Li Ze a note, and then shook her waist, pretending to be serious, and said goodbye to Li Ze and left.

Although the other party is quite beautiful, when he thinks of the identity of the other party's reporter, Li Ze is doubly careful, and silently complains in his heart:

"Amerika also has an immortal jump."

On February 24th, the results of the game between the Thunder and the Lakers attracted a lot of attention, Kobe Bryant was 7 of 25, 12 of 13 free throws, and scored 26 points.

Before the All-Star break, the Thunder continued to lead the league with a 32-2 record, while the Heat and Bulls also had a 27-7 record, which made many commentators start to predict that the Finals might be the Thunder vs. the Heat.

Although the Bulls' performance has been overlooked, Derrick Rose's popularity has grown, and jersey sales have been rising.

However, for Li Ze, a rare vacation is to have a good rest, Durant still did not resist the temptation, and accepted the qualification for the three-point contest handed over by Li Ze.

This year's Rookie Challenge, the NBA league has reformed this event, and the Rookie Challenge will no longer be grouped in the first and second grades, and the two sides will become Chuck and O'Neal.

In order to attract ratings, the league conducted a "draft" as early as February 16, and cooperated with the TNT channel to work wildly, but unfortunately, due to the impact of the shrinking season, fans still didn't buy it

After Li Ze flew to Orlando, he also felt that this All-Star seemed to be lacking in stardom.

In 2010, the Dallas All-Stars, 100,000 people in the stadium, the atmosphere was very hot, and in 2011, the Los Angeles All-Stars, Staples Arena gathered big names, and all the stars were present.

And this year's Orlando All-Stars, just look at the performers in the halftime to know the quality, the local singer plus what RAP Little Prince, forced a big difference!

In the rookie challenge on the night of the 24th, Li Ze took Alexandra Daddario, who had nothing to do all day, to watch the game live.

"I took a few MVs and went back to guard the printer, if it wasn't for Anne pulling her out, would you want to stay at home all the time?"

As soon as she heard this, even though she was sitting in the front row, Alexandra was so angry that she pinched Li Ze fiercely, and then whispered:

"I don't have a suitable script, and I'm not short of money, so why run around? Besides, I also have a good job, and I have taken several magazine covers! ”

Sister Dabo's explanation made Li Ze a little speechless in his heart, what is the use of the magazine cover?

There are a lot of small magazines in New York, and there are countless beautiful girls, in addition to being white-skinned and in good shape, this is really not as good as some bold girls who dare to fight.

"It's good if you're happy! But these days, you can dress up well, you really can't find a job, you can also come to Keds to endorse, take some photos and post them on INS, you can not only gain fans, but also promote products. ”

Li Ze comforted again, and nodded with satisfaction when he saw Alexandra's dress tonight.

Sister Dabo wore a black slim jeans tonight, with white Flow Velociti Wind running shoes on her feet, a white T-shirt and a black jacket, and her hair was tied up.

The rookie challenge has not yet started, and the surface brother Griffin is warming up with a sore face, and he still has to participate in this competition this year, and too many back-to-back games this season have made Griffin have long lost the passion to enter the league for the first time.

The new Kyrie Irving noticed Li Ze on the sidelines at this time, and immediately dribbled the ball to the front of him, and greeted him familiarly:

"Kayce, how about playing 7 balls together, I watched last year's Western Conference semifinals, it was really cool, you completely suppressed Kobe, the first two days of the game, you also played very well, I like your style of play!"

Li Ze saw that the new Carey Owen looked eager to try, but he just shook his head with a smile and politely refused:

"It's bullying to go head-to-head with a small man, but if we meet in the regular season, I will definitely not show mercy to him, don't underestimate Kobe, although his athleticism has declined, he is still a superstar in the league."

Kyrie Irving obviously disagrees with Li Ze's words, he is only two years younger than Li Ze, and he is the top pick this year, despite the Cavaliers' record of pulling his hips, Irving is very confident in his skills:

"I can also blow up Kobe, the Black Mamba is old, just like Michael Jordan of the Wizards back then, young people like us are the future of the league."

"Kayce, if I win the Rookie Challenge MVP, how about you play a heads-up game with me? That's fair terms, right? ”

Li Ze looked at the energetic new Owen, and felt a little funny in his heart, but when he saw the other party's expectant eyes, he still stretched out his fist and happily agreed:

"No problem! MVP to MVP, that's fair! ”

"Cool! Bro! ”
