Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

Rest between sessions.

The atmosphere on the Lakers bench was solemn. They had just played one quarter, and the sudden increase in confrontation made it difficult for everyone to adapt. Campbell and several others were cursing.

"Damn, that bastard Oakley is just a gangster. He's not here to play basketball at all." Campbell spat angrily.

"You think I'm having an easy time?! That bastard, Childs, is not a human being. When I shoot, he steps on his feet. When I break through, he kneels me. Damn it, he's just here to destroy me." Eddie He also cursed and said that the opponent, Childs, was too dirty.

"This is Larry Johnson who is the most problematic. Damn it, he elbowed me three times. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been crippled by him!!"

"That's enough, shut up. Does saying this make you feel proud?" Harris really had no ears to listen.

The people in his hands were beaten like this by the Knicks, and it became difficult to use all tactics. This was simply unimaginable before, and the rhythm was all in the hands of the Knicks.

Now the biggest problem has emerged.

Except for Li Shengli, there is no reliable point on the offensive end. Everyone suffers from the small moves of strong confrontation.

But the increase in the number of Li Shengli's fouls was astonishing.

Three fouls were committed in a single quarter, which is simply disastrous news, because without Li Shengli, it is absolutely immeasurable how much the Lakers' combat effectiveness will decline.

"Li, you have to hold on, you must hold on, and be careful not to get fouled again."

"Do you think I want to? I turned around after being hit from behind, and then you called me for the slightest contact. This call was completely out of order." Li Shengli's face was ashen.

"You see, I will put pressure on the referee later, but you still have to pay attention." Harris glared at the referee team and said to Kobe: "In the next quarter, Eddie is out, Kobe is in, don't be afraid of this Childs, just go around the screen and hit your most stable fadeaway jumper."

"Aren't Crotty and I coming?" Ben asked.

"You guys stay, the problem now is not the defense, it's the offense, so it's not time for you to play."

Harris said coldly: "Listen to me now, you must be stable and try to reduce singles as much as possible. Campbell, please provide more perimeter cover to ensure scoring efficiency. Just defend the outside and leave it to Li."

…

Harris took the time to make arrangements, and before going on the court, Li Shengli pulled Kobe.

"Kobe, you've seen the situation, can you withstand it?"

"No problem, I'm just waiting to play now, it's up to me."

"Okay, I'm really annoyed when I step on the horse. If I really get a lot of fouls in the second quarter, it will be a lot of fun."

Li Shengli frowned, because the game situation was similar to what he expected, but not exactly the same, and the whistle was blown too tight.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

"Okay!" Li Shengli turned around and called Nick, "Nick, as long as Ewing and Oakley double-team me, you will receive my pass. We will still use the old tactics."

"Okay, damn, I've already been upset with them."

"If you mess with me again in this section, don't blame me for falling out."

"What nonsense? Why didn't you fall out just now? Okay, let's play."

"Let's go, kill these sons of bitches!"

…

Appeared in the second quarter.

Knicks attacked first and tasted the sweetness of confrontation, and the gang became more ruthless.

After Childs scored suddenly and the ball was handed to Starks, Kobe and Childs got entangled. Childs came up and didn't say anything, but a hidden black elbow hit Kobe's shoulder.

good chance!

While Kobe was dazed, Childs asked for a pass, caught the ball and made a hit.

…

Back to the Lakers offense.

Nick quickly passed the ball to Li Shengli, and Li Shengli hit Ewing inside, attracting a double-team from Oakley. Nick followed Li Shengli's pass according to the pre-arranged tactical arrangement, and quickly passed it to Kobe.

The time of four-on-three on the outside is short.

Kobe had no chance to get around the screen. After catching the ball, he wanted to hit a fadeaway jumper, but the problem was...it was Childs again, raising his arm flat.

Click!

There was a muffled sound.

Childs almost took off Kobe's jaw, but Kobe lay on his back. When he got up again, he spit out a mouthful of blood and his eyes were red, so he nearly knocked over Childs with two pendulums.

It's just... this time the referee was very timely. After calling Childs a defensive foul, he immediately rushed forward and stopped both parties in the conflict.

"Damn it, Childs, are you a son of a bitch playing basketball?" Kobe was so angry that he shouted at Childs.

"Stop screaming, it's useless, kid! You're a little too young to fight us!" Childs lowered his voice and sneered: "What are you thinking about? If you have the ability, come and do something evil to me. I am your ancestor in this respect!”

"Get out of here, you piece of trash!"

"Haha, the one who loses the game is the trash, kid!"

Taking advantage of the time when the referee came in and served again, the young Kobe was severely beaten by the public for the first time. Li Shengli looked at everyone from the inside and went crazy. The blood in his body surged and he walked to Kobe's side.

"Is everything okay? Just keep fighting if everything is okay. Leave this person to me!"

"Oh? You still want to help others? Boss Ewing, stop him quickly! I'm so scared, I'm going to die!" Childs' expression was exaggerated, and he laughed at Li Shengli, Oakley, Larry - Johnson was sneering on the sidelines, all in the corners of his mouth was a joke, while Li Shengli's face turned black with anger and he clenched his fists.

"Li, no, I can handle it myself." Kobe rubbed his chin, fearing that Li Shengli would make a move.

"You can handle this shit, damn, if you do it again, he can destroy you."

"No, I..."

"Shut up, get him here soon, take a good look at him, kneel down and admit your mistake!"

Too lazy to argue with Childs, the Lakers gritted their teeth and served again.

This time Campbell went out to set a pick-and-roll screen, giving Horry a chance to shoot around the screen. He successfully hit one, but the shot was missed. Everyone still looked bad.

…

In the following games, the confrontation became more and more intense.

Li Shengli faced Ewing, and Oakley cooperated with an underhanded move. Li Shengli was forced to hand it over to the Knicks to organize and pass it to Kobe.

However, Kobe is still young.

Childs took care of him and kept making various small moves. In the last three minutes of the second quarter, he scored 1-for-4, with neither shots nor hits good enough.

On the contrary, Horry, who was new to the Lakers, really became the firepower, making up for Kobe's lack of offensive efficiency and stalling the situation.

As for Li Shengli.

Although Ewing was stunned and the number of fouls increased to 4, he still scored 13 points in the second quarter. Counting the first quarter, he scored 30 points in less than two quarters.

…

In the last 3 minutes, the Knicks attacked again.

Childs held the ball and advanced beyond the three-point line, stopped, and taunted Kobe again: "Come on, little bastard, do you want me to teach you how to add some spice to your offensive moves?!"

The same scene has lasted for 9 minutes.

Every possession, with or without the ball, Childs would be nagging in Kobe's ear.

It's okay to just talk trash, but the key is that Childs' hands and feet are not clean. Although he also let Kobe go to the free throw line and made 3 of 4 free throws, every provocation still stirred Kobe's nerves that were on the verge of collapse. .

"Trash, you dirty trickster!"

"Haha, you only get angry when you are incompetent!" As soon as Childs finished speaking, he immediately launched an attack. His cross-step breakthrough was not very fast, but he still pushed away Kobe. When he saw the air defense under the basket, he immediately charged.

"Boy, watch and study hard!"

…

From the beginning to the end, Kobe was so confused by this guy that Li Shengli's head hurt just looking at it.

To be honest, if Kobe was a top superstar, others would be more concerned about him, but at this stage, he is just a nobody. He was bullied by Childs so much that his whole body ached and he cursed him. When he saw Childs rushing into the penalty area, Li Shengli's eyes were filled with tears. Bronze bell, angry-eyed King Kong...

OK, you are finally here!

You should watch and study hard. I will learn from your mother's example. You can teach me one hundred and eight ways to die under the basket!

Seeing Childs' layup, Li Shengli's eyes bleeded, murderous intent burst out, and he rushed forward with a long stride.

Li Shengli?

Damn it, something is going to happen!

Charles has overstepped his bounds. Is Li Shengli going to destroy him?

At the same time, Ewing and Oakley, who were crowded inside, saw Li Shengli making a tiger attack. They were all chilled, and the pupils of their eyes dilated sharply... Although this feeling is difficult to describe, the two people who have played against Li Shengli many times know that, This is a red flag!

"Damn it, Charles, pass it to..."

"Don't rush, go back, Chai..."

The time was too short, and neither of them could speak completely. However, Charles didn't notice anything. When he really noticed it, he caught a glimpse of Li Shengli running towards him from the corner of his eye. At this moment, he was in a critical situation and could not avoid it.

"Run? It's too late. Step on your horse and let me...kneel down!"
