"Do you dare to be one-on-one? I told my teammates not to trap you, and you didn't want to find anyone else! ”

Both teams started on the field, and the game was about to enter the jump ball session.

Kobe Bryant directly approached Doon and wanted to fight King Doon, one-on-one, relying on his personal strength to decide the winner.

Hearing Kobe Bryant say this, Doon also guessed why Kobe Bryant uncharacteristically pointed four fingers at him after receiving the ring.

Kobe Bryant usually likes to use basketball to talk, even if trash talk affects the opponent's mentality, he will not engage in off-court actions to influence the opponent.

It's also because Kobe Bryant knows Doon well and knows that Doon is so good at blocking and dismantling!

In case Doon really blows up the Lakers by blocking and dismantling, even if Kobe's data is good at that time, he will be embarrassed because of the loss.

To put it bluntly, Kobe Bryant tonight not only wants to win, but also completely defeats Doane from the front, so as to get rid of all the voices outside.

Doon looked at Kobe, who was a cut short of himself, and nodded confidently.

"No problem, let's use the man's way to decide the outcome of the game!"

Doon knows very well in his heart that the comprehensive strength of the Bulls' youth army is far from being the opponent of the current Lakers.

If you want to beat the Lakers, the winner is yourself and Kobe.

If Kobe Bryant insists on going his own way, he wants to get into trouble with him, and then prevent his teammates from dying, giving Doon hope of winning.

Then Doon, even if he is a little more tired, is willing.

"I'm the leader!"

Against his old teammate Eddie Curry, Tyson Chandler, who was impressed by Shibei for three days, also proved why he became the star of the 01 class in the jump ball session.

The Bulls got the ball, Doon motioned for Ben Gordon to dribble across half court, and he went to the low post to get the ball.

Kobe himself said that he was going to go heads-up, and Doon went to the low post to get the ball and singled Kobe Bryant, which is also reasonable, right?

When the time comes, Doon will be able to take advantage of his weight and strength!

And the Lakers' interior Eddie Curry's defense is sparse, and although Odom's assistance defense is good, didn't Kobe Bryant say that no one will cover him?

If Kobe, the Lakers boss, can do what he says, then Doon will play super dominance in the low post tonight!

And until Doon runs out of energy, Doon will be an inexplicable presence on the offensive end.

To tell the truth, Kobe Bryant really kept his promise.

Kobe Bryant just received his fourth championship ring, and the Lakers' other four starters, two are rookies, and the remaining two are stars but don't even have a ring.

And the new head coach of the Lakers, Tang Shuai, also supports Kobe Bryant and is willing to leave all the things on the court to Kobe Bryant.

So, when Kobe Bryant said, "Put away your damn pick-and-roll, I'm going to go head-to-head with Doon!" And it is true that no one will interfere.

Even Hinrich and Eddie Curry want to prove to Bulls management that they are no worse than Doane......

In other words, when Kobe Bryant saw Doon reaching for the ball in the low position, he naturally wouldn't let Doon catch the ball so easily.

Because it was a home game and a strong dialogue between stars, Kobe's movements were quite small, but the referees on the sideline and the bottom line paid attention to Doon and Ko's strength and pushing, but did not blow the whistle.

Dawn realized that tonight's penalty was on the line, and he also took out the tricks that Malone had taught him.

First, he reached out to pull Kobi while moving, so as to run away from it.

Just as he got the space to catch the ball and reached out to catch the ball, he guessed that Kobe Bryant would immediately cling to him in order to interfere with his catch.

So he secretly raised his elbow with the ball protector, turned around after receiving the ball with his body, got up and hit his back, took the initiative to cover the elbow raising action with his body, and leaned on Kobe Bryant to avoid the observation of the referee on the sideline and the bottom corner.

Kobe Bryant was hit by a dark elbow and his chest hurt, but he didn't even snort, he gritted his teeth and continued to fight against Doon's body.

Kobe Bryant relied on the experience he accumulated last season and had many heads-up with Doon, wanting to force Doon out of the shooting area that Doon is good at, and interfere with Doon's dribbling rhythm.

However, Kobe Bryant didn't expect that after a summer, Doon would evolve a lot.

In fact, Doon has made a lot of progress, has accumulated in the playoffs, and is slowly showing it.

It's just that the playoffs are intense, and Kobe and Doon can't learn from each other and probe each other's bottom as soon as they have time like in the regular season.

Bryant didn't expect Doon's level of control and man-ball combination to be further improved, and Bryant's physical confrontation interfered with Doon's dribbling, but it did not form an effective damage.

Doon turned his back and dribbled, looking a little stumbling, but in Kobe's jaw-dropping surprise, he quickly took two quick steps past Kobe.

Kobe Bryant got up and chased again, and Doon had already stepped on the basket.

Although Odom didn't choose to wrap up in advance, he couldn't sit back and watch Doane go to the basket, so he took the initiative to come over and wipe Kobe's ass.

Seeing this, Doon also immediately passed the ball to Josh Smith, who also consciously cut to the basket.

Eddie Curry stood under the basket and just reached out, but didn't mean to jump and block.

Boom –

Josh Smith, who is not afraid of tigers as a newborn calf, directly dunked on the back, and in the first game of the regular season, the first offense, he played a famous scene!

"Why is it Curry?"

Every big center is inevitably dunked, and the center is no different.

"Kobe, do you care if Dullly doesn't practice? I've been practicing with Tracy and Shaq for a summer! ”

An assist was in hand, and Doon did not forget to turn around and taunt Kobe.

Bryant stared at death, but said nothing.

It was also a low-post back-to-back single, and this time Duon was beaten.

Kobe Bryant's elbow is not small, and coupled with the fact that he has become a little Marlon, Doon's defensive pressure is naturally not small.

It's just that Doon's body is hard enough to withstand Kobe's iron elbow, otherwise he would have been out of position defensively.

Kobe Bryant knew Doon's ability on the defensive end, and found that Doon was not leaned away by him, so he could only shake his shoulders and turn around, fake and shoot a real shot, and open up the space to shoot a mid-distance backward jumper.

Doon's lateral movement speed kept up with Kobe's shooting speed, but Kobe's shooting point was too high, and he relied on his waist and abdomen strength, so he waited until Doon fell before he shot.

However, Bryant relied on his personal ability to complete the shot, but did not rely on his personal ability to score the ball.

Doon's defense still effectively interfered with Kobe's shooting!

Doon and Kobe Bryant fought one-on-one, and the first round was a big win for Doon.

With Tyson Chandler protecting the rebound, the second round began.

Instead of rushing into a fast attack, Doon motioned to Ben Gordon to slow down the tempo.

After arriving in the frontcourt, Doon continued to play in the bottom corner, and Kobe Bryant immediately entangled.

Doon didn't repeat his old tricks, but ran without the ball after getting rid of Kobe Bryant.

Bryant was in hot pursuit behind Doon, but after all, he was one position behind.

Doon ran around in a circle to get the ball at the top of the arc, and then held the ball to the basket.

Bryant hurriedly shrank to the basket, but Doon suddenly stopped and stepped back and shot from mid-range.

Doon's mid-distance is not particularly powerful, but he also has an all-star level, and his half-empty shots are somewhat certain.

When Kobe Bryant pounced from the inside, he saw Doon shoot the ball into the basket steadily, and then winked at Kobe while falling back to defense.

Doon's eyes seem to be able to speak—Kobe, you almost stopped me!

The embarrassed Kobe Bryant was naturally not to be outdone, and continued to take the ball in the low post to beat Doon.

Doon pushed Bryant out of the dessert zone as much as he could, but Bryant was tough enough to hit the ball in the long two-point area near the bottom right corner with his best step-back jumper, and finally responded with a shot.

But Doon understands Kobe's strength, and he originally had a shooting percentage of about 45%, and now under his tough defense, the shooting percentage may drop to less than 4%.

Considering that limiting Bryant's scoring would give him a chance to win, Doon already had the idea of reducing offense and putting more energy on the defensive end.

Of course, in order for Kobe to continue to fight alone, Doon must first score more points to stimulate Kobe!
