O'Neal glanced at Kobe, the big fat man was still very sensitive, and he heard Kobe's taunt, and said angrily: "I scored 26 points in the half, the consumption is too great, and I have no strength, so I have to replenish my energy, Kobe, do you have any opinions?" ”

Does this mean that I only score 2 points? Kobe Bryant's face turned blue with anger.

But now he doesn't have the strength and status to compete with O'Neal, O'Neal is a well-deserved boss in the Lakers, and the weak have no human rights, so he can only endure it and not speak.

Soon after, the third quarter began.

Because of the 15-minute break at halftime, O'Neal lasted another quarter, but his performance was not as good as the first half, shooting 3 of 7 in 10 minutes in a single quarter, all of which were nearly two-point shots, and he couldn't get into the basket under the condition of lack of physical fitness, and he didn't attack under the basket once, plus 1 of 5 free throws, he scored 7 points, 33 points and 10 rebounds in the third quarter.

With two minutes left at the end of the third quarter, he couldn't move anymore and took the initiative to ask for a timeout.

Kobe Bryant was still locked by Zhou Quan, shot 1 of 4 in a single quarter, was stealed twice by Zhou Quan, made three mistakes in a single quarter, and was prevented from dying.

And Zhou Quan, in the first ten minutes, shot wildly on Kobe's head, shooting 7 of 11, including 2 of 5 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, 19 points in a single quarter, and 62 points in the third quarter, tying the highest single-game score in the playoffs in the 97 finals, only one point away from Jordan's 63 points.

On the CCTV commentary seat, Zhang Reasonable said excitedly: "23 of 31 shots, 7 of 11 three-point shots, 9 of 10 free throws, 62 points, 8 assists and 10 steals, Zhou Quan's performance today is against the sky, and the desire to attack is too strong!" Now the score is 97-59 and the Lakers are already trailing by 38 points. ”

"Bryant was completely stunned. Especially after being robbed 9 times by Zhou Quan, and the number of turnovers in the 3rd quarter reached 11, the mentality is estimated to have collapsed. Xu Jicheng said with a smile.

"No, look at his appearance, he hasn't collapsed yet, this young man's psychological quality is good, it's really good, Jordan's successor, one of the strongest opponents after Zhou Quan." Zhang Li praised.

"Zhou Quan has even killed Jordan three times in a row, do you still care about Jordan's successor?" Xu Jicheng teased.

"Haha......" Zhang Reasonable laughed.

Xu Jicheng said: "Now there are two minutes left in the third quarter, with Zhou Quan's performance today, this section will definitely break Jordan's record." ”

"You can interview Jordan about his mood at this time." Zhang made a good suggestion.

But without his advice, some reporters at the scene had already run in front of Jordan and were interviewing him.

These include reporters from ESPN and CCTV.

ESPN's live camera also focused on Jordan and brought the interview to a hanging screen.

"Michael, do you think the Iron Fist King has a chance to break your playoff single-game scoring record of 63 points today?" ESPN's correspondent asked.

"To be honest, I'm very bitter in my heart, but I can't show it yet, lest people call me stingy."

Jordan smiled reluctantly and said, "You should ask me if he is going to break this section or save it for the next section." ”

"Haha......" everyone who heard it laughed.

Another reporter asked: "Michael, you were swept by Big Bird in the series for two consecutive years, and in the previous two seasons, the Lakers were also swept by the Jazz and Spurs in a row, do you think it is possible for the Lakers to be swept for three consecutive years and break your record?" ”

Jordan glared at the reporter with a knife-like gaze, without the slightest intention of answering the question, and the reporter also had a sneer on his face, embarrassed to ask again.

"Kobe, are you still going to play?"

On the Lakers bench, Phil Jackson asked.

Kobe Bryant kept gasping and wiping a handful of sweat from time to time, but the sweat couldn't be wiped clean at all, but he didn't hesitate to say after hearing it: "I, ho, I'm not afraid of him, hoho ......"

O'Neal, who was wheezing even more, turned around and glanced at Kobe, he also had to admire his little brother, who was beaten sixty-two to four, and his psychology had not collapsed, he was not an ordinary person! He's a ruthless man!

"Shaq, what about you?" Phil Jackson asked.

"I want to rest." O'Neill said without hesitation.

Phil Jackson nodded and began to arrange the staff.

In this game, and even in this series, he has lost hope, Kobe Bryant has not been completely broken, but he has been beaten by Zhou Quan's 62 points in the third quarter.

On the other end, on the supersonic bench, Zhou Quan was also a little tired and drank an energy drink.

With a level of 98 physical fitness, it is not easy for him to be tired, which is the price of scoring 62 points in the third quarter and locking up Kobe.

At this point, the timeout ended, and Bryant stood up.

Zhou Quan also stood up, all played to this point, he has no reason not to break Jordan's 63-point record, if he doesn't play now, he may be called hypocritical.

Lakers offense.

Fisher advanced to the top of the arc with the ball, and Bryant asked for the ball on the right wing, but he didn't give it and shot a three-pointer directly against Ruben Patterson.

However, he missed, Ben Wallace was in charge of the card position, and Rodman grabbed the rebound and threw it to Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan did not break fast after receiving the ball, but steadily advanced to the top of the arc and started positional battles.

"Come on!"

Kobe Bryant spoke in a very angry tone.

Zhou Quan smiled, he didn't care about Kobe's attitude, after all, he scored 62 points on people's heads and steals 9 times, and didn't he allow people to lose their temper?

"Squeak!"

In the next split, he activated the breakout, swooping out from the right and then pulling back.

"Bastard!"

Kobe Bryant was already very tired and couldn't keep up with his feet, and when Zhou Quan pulled back, his legs went weak and he knelt on the floor.

"Kobe Bryant is on his knees, this is a big empty seat!"

When Zhou Quan jumped shot, Zhang Cheng shouted excitedly.

"Brush!"

The water splashed and hit the three-pointer.

"Oh roar!"

At the Staples Center, countless Angelenos gave a very warm cheer and applause, which was earth-shattering.

"Congratulations to the Iron Fist King, 65 points in the third quarter, the first individual score in a single playoff game in league history." Bill Wharton said excitedly.

"And three 50+ games in a row, no, two 50+ and one 60+." Ranbir said formulaically.

"Congratulations to Zhou Quan, 65 points in the third quarter, 75% shooting rate......" Zhang said excitedly.

"Congratulations to Zhou Quan, the ninth playoff 50+, the third 60+, in the playoffs single game individual score, you have won the NBA league in the past and the present." Xu Jicheng said excitedly.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Before the end of the third quarter, Zhou Quan was replaced by the head coach and received a grand applause from the home fans alone, and did not play again until the end of the game.

At 117:85, at the end, the SuperSonics won wildly, and the Lakers lost by 32 points.

"Iron Fist King, if you play in the last quarter, can you score 100 points?"

"Tekken ......"

After the game, dozens of reporters flocked to the supersonic bench, and many more could not get close and had to go to interview others.

At this time, Jordan was also being interviewed on the sidelines of the court.

"Michael, you coached Kobe Bryant yesterday afternoon, and then Kobe was beaten by the Iron Fist King to a 65:4, what do you think of the effect of this coaching?" A New York Times reporter asked.

"Mentoring effect?"

Hearing this question, the expression on Jordan's face suddenly became wonderful, and then it became darker than Kobe's face, comparable to a black hole, staring at the reporter and scolding in his heart: "@#¥%&¥%......"

"Poof!"

"Haha!"

Magic Johnson and Abdul-Jabbar and others couldn't help but laugh when they heard this question.

"Kobe, what have you gained from the live teaching of the Iron Fist King?"

"Shaq, are you confident that you will avoid being swept away?"

"Big Shark, are you confident that you will avoid being swept for the third time in a row?"

"Kobe, do you still have the self-confidence to challenge the Iron Fist King in the future?"

"Shaq, do you like the nickname of the Swept King?"

"Kobe, do you have any affection for the nickname "Swept King?"

Several reporters caught up with Kobe and O'Neal, who were rushing towards the players' tunnel, and threw out a few questions that made the two very unhappy.

"Bang!"

The two rushed into the locker room, and their teammates in the back also rushed in, and Phil Jackson, who was the last to enter, closed the door.

"I really want to put them in the basket." O'Neill was angry.

"Iron Fist?" Harper asked casually.

O'Neal was stunned and snorted, "Someday I'm going to have to stuff him in the basket too." ”

AC Green sighed: "The Iron Fist King is too strong tonight, and no one can beat the supersonic when he meets him like this."

Even if Chamberlain crawls out of the grave and joins forces with Michael Jordan, I don't think he can win tonight's Iron Fist. ”

Tyronn Lu said, "Ace, I don't think so, can I? ”

A.C. Green glanced at O'Neal and Kobe, shook his head and didn't answer, he didn't want to hit the OK combination again.

In his opinion, when he encounters the god-like Iron Fist King tonight, Jordan has to kneel like him, and the dominance of the big shark is definitely not weaker than Chamberlain, Zhang Qiao teamed up, and he may not be able to win tonight's Iron Fist King.

Rick Fox said with a smile: "The Iron Fist King is only 28 years old, and I think there are still many years of his prime, maybe like Jordan, he will still be in his prime when he retires." ”

Glen Les scolded and said, "Shet! How could he possibly have Jordan's physique? Maybe in two years, the body will collapse. ”

Fisher said with a worried face: "If it's really like what Rick said, then our Lakers will be as bad luck as the Bulls." ”

Veteran Brian Shaw said: "If there is no Iron Fist King, Jordan will have at least six or seven championships, and the dynasty is also certain, he is indeed unlucky." ”

His teammates talked about it, but Kobe Bryant didn't say a word, and his face was as gloomy as the day before the thunderstorm.

He didn't unload his equipment, he took out a basketball from the closet, rubbed it in his hand, and didn't know what he was thinking.

O'Neal saw Kobe Bryant's appearance like this, and knew that this little brother should be the saddest person tonight, so he patted Kobe Bryant's shoulder and comforted: "Forget it, Kobe, the iron fist is really powerful, it's normal that you can't beat him, just get used to it." ”

"I can't get used to it."

Kobe Bryant got up from his chair like a bomb that had been detonated, and shouted excitedly and sadly: "Sooner or later, I'm going to blast 60+ on his head, 60+ in three quarters, and sooner or later I'm going to get him 4 points in three quarters, and I, Kobe Bryant, do what he says." ”

The locker room fell silent, in their opinion, Kobe's wish should have a chance to be fulfilled after the Iron Fist King is forty years old, if the Iron Fist King has not retired by then.

It's not that they don't believe in Kobe's potential, it's that tonight's Iron Fist King left them too impressed.

The next day, May 28, the old Bass, who had stayed awake all night, was in no mood to eat breakfast after seeing the news reports from the media.

The OK combination he had high hopes for is about to usher in a triple sweep, no, it is a triple sweep, and if the Lakers get the nickname of "swept king", he will die of depression.

The little Bass are also you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to relieve the depression of the old father.

"Jerry, try to avoid being swept, we Lakers can't be a joke." He called Jerry West and said.

"Boss, I've talked to Phil Jackson over and over again, however, he doesn't seem to have enough confidence." West sighed.

"Jerry, the supersonic completed the dynasty on the head of the Bulls, and in the face of the Iron Fist King, Phil Jackson's confidence does not seem to be enough, he should be scared by the Iron Fist King." Jerebus sighed.

"It's really possible."

Jerry West sighed secretly, Phil Jackson was brought in by him, which seemed to be another mistake on his part, and hopefully it would not cause his boss to distrust him.

He thought for a while and said: "Boss, we can't beat the supersonics, it's not that we're too weak, we also have the second record in the league, it's the Iron Fist King who is too strong." ”

Jerebus thought of Zhou Quan's performance last night, and couldn't help but sigh: "Are you really optimistic about Kobe?" ”

Jerry West said firmly: "Kobe Bryant may not be as high as Jordan, or maybe not as high as Tekken, but I think he will be the best guard in this league after Jordan and Tekken." ”
