Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

Across the ocean, many Chinese fans are waiting in front of the TV to follow this game.

Of course it's because of Qi, shit, of course it's because the Pacers' opponent is the Lakers.

The current league president, David Stern, is considered one of the great professional managers in the world today. As the league president in 1984, he made the NBA's annual operating income exceed 3 billion through powerful business packaging, star strategy and international promotion.

Dollar.

And in *****, he successfully got the style to agree to the broadcast through preferential conditions such as free broadcasting. After that, NBA officials sent a set of game highlights to Beijing for free every week, and also paid out of his own pocket to hire the CCTV broadcast team to broadcast the stars live.

tournament and finals.

Since then, the NBA has opened up the Chinese market.

With the rise of the Internet, the Lakers, who were born in a wealthy Los Angeles team and won two consecutive championships in 2009 and 2010, have become the home team of most Chinese basketball fans, and their popularity has even surpassed Yao Ming's Rockets.

"Huh?"

When Hu Yingzhe and his classmates secretly watched the game, they happened to hear a question from a classmate who was half a Lakers fan:

"Um, why is there an Asian on the Pacers' bench?"

Doesn’t this reflect my vision?

Hu Yingzhe smiled slightly and was about to explain Qitian to his classmates when Yu Guohao next to him spoke first:

"Yes, yes, he is an Asian, his name is Qi Tian, ​​and he just defeated the Warriors 2+1 two days ago."

"Really?"

The second floor of the Internet cafe was abuzz. The students immediately surrounded Yu Guohao and asked all kinds of questions:

"What position does this Qitian play?"

"How is the strength?"

"He's not a starter for the Pacers, right?"

Yu Guohao straightened his back immediately and scolded them:

"I've said it before. I want you to pay more attention to teams with low traffic. If you only watch the Lakers and Rockets games, are you going to be blind now?"

"Speaking of Qi Tian, ​​​​it was my discerning eye..."

Hu Yingzhe punched Daniel.

"Hello!"

Yu Guohao suddenly softened and said quickly:

"It was Lao Hu Hui who had a sharp eye. I was called by him at that time, and that's when I knew there was this Asian."

Hu Yingzhe nodded pretendingly and explained to the students:

"Speaking of which, Qi Tian was still a rookie..."

"Yo, Kobe scored!"

Yu Guohao, who accidentally glanced at the screen, shouted when he saw Kobe Bryant scoring.

With his voice, the people who were originally surrounding Hu Yingzhe immediately called to the screen. They happened to see Kobe shake off George and score with his iconic fadeaway jumper. They immediately aroused a burst of exclamation:

“So handsome!”

"You look like you haven't read a book, that's elegant!"

"Fadeaway jumper!"

Some people excitedly made a shooting gesture and said in wonder,

"This is completely the reincarnation of Jordan!"

Hu Yingzhe felt like a crow was flying over his head:

"Jordan isn't dead yet."

"Oh, that's the current Jordan!"

"Hey, who is better, Kobe or Jordan?"

"That must be Kobe. Did Jordan have 81 points?"

"That's right..."

…

Staples Arena.

"10-17."

Hibbert committed two fouls in the first quarter and was replaced by the coach. Neither West nor the new Hansbrough could provide support in the paint.

Seeing the point difference widening, Granger immediately reached out for the ball.

"Give me!"

He took the basketball and prepared to single on Matt Barnes.

As a second-round pick in 2002, Matt Barnes averaged a career-high 10 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. The foundation for his standing in the league is his defensive ability. With his ability to defend multiple positions, he was able to compete with the Lakers in 2010.

Signed a 2-year contract.

Of course, he still had some trouble trying to defend Granger.

Granger suddenly forced a breakthrough, turned around and shot a fadeaway jumper in front of Barnes.

"Whoa!"

Accurate basketball shooting.

"12-17."

Fisher attacked with the ball from the outside, and Collison stood firmly in front of him.

"Pick and roll!"

Laoyu called for a pick-and-roll, and Gasol came over and blocked Collison.

Lao Yu broke through with all his strength and made a sudden stop for a jump shot.

"clang!"

Under the gaze of Lakers fans, the basketball jumped out of the frame.

There was no surprise for them. Apart from his ability to score at critical moments, Lao Yu had no outstanding advantages as a point guard. The best explanation for him was that he was quite law-abiding.

And at the age of 37, it is a bit unrealistic for him to use scoring to repay the fans.

But the new player Mike Roberts gave Lakers fans a surprise. He jumped high and grabbed an offensive rebound over Hansbrough's head!

"handsome!"

Mike Roberts obviously didn't want to stop there. He got the basketball, lifted it lightly, and sent the basketball to the basket.

"Oops!"

Hansbrough watched his opponent get an offensive rebound and then tipped the ball in, but was unable to do anything.

"Clang!"

The basketball circled around the edge of the basket and fell out again!

George Hill immediately turned around and grabbed the rebound.

"*uc*!"

Disappointed Lakers fans immediately shouted angrily.

But just when Hill was dribbling to attack, Kobe on the other side suddenly flashed past him and stole the basketball from Hill's hand!

Before the opponent could react, Kobe, wearing jersey No. 24, broke into the paint, shook Hansbrough, and scored a backhand dunk!

"12-19."

"handsome!"

"omg!"

Lakers fans immediately became excited. Kobe was the only one in the team worthy of their trust!

The coach on the sidelines, Mike Brown, saw that there were only 4 minutes left in the first quarter, so he requested a substitution and took out the rest of the starters to rest, leaving only Kobe.

"Coach, do we want to make a substitution?"

Vogel looked up at the score difference and shook his head.

Collison missed an outside jumper, and Kobe forced a breakthrough and scored a layup, widening the point difference again.

Hansbrough missed the jumper after catching the ball, but fortunately he made up for it by grabbing the offensive rebound and passing it back to Collison on the outside.

Collison stood at the top of the arc to organize a second attack, breaking through and passing the ball back to West in the high post.

West faced the opponent's defense and scored a jump shot.

"14-21."

The Pacers were slightly closer to the score, and Kobe immediately broke through the defense, causing Hill to foul and go to the free throw line.

Free throws were a common occurrence for Kobe, and he easily made two free throws, once again widening the point difference to 9 points.

The person guarding Hansbrough is Mike Roberts, who only received a minimum salary this year. Although Hansbrough was the team's starter last season and should show off his power when encountering players with a minimum salary, Hansbrough did not act like the Pacers fans.

Defeat the opponent as expected.

"clang!"

Hansbrough made his fourth jump shot, and the rebound was collected by Kobe.
