Guard With a Knife

28 of 42 shots, 65 points in a single game! !

This is the data sheet handed over by Kobe Bryant!

It is also a powerful slap he gave to all doubters in the world.

The Sharks said he was shooting indiscriminately, and he hit 28 balls.

The old shark ridiculed that he could go to the finals to refresh Michael Jordan's scoring data. He scored the highest score in the playoffs in NBA history on the Spurs, the second strongest team in the West and with Bruce Bowen... breaking the basketball god of the year in one fell swoop Scoring record at North Shore Gardens.

This is the style of the Black Mamba, the more sarcastic the opponent, the more tenacious he is.

You can say he's selfish for criticizing him for taking 42 shots in a game, or you can say he puts himself above the system...but that's Kobe.

He has never changed because of the wind of outside public opinion.

On the contrary, public opinion is often changed because of him.

When this legendary data appeared, all the basketball media could not help but worship it.

Those pundits who thought LeBron James had replaced Kobe Bryant as the league's de facto No. 1 man have changed their tune. Those commentators who said Kobe Bryant destroyed the internal unity can only keep their mouths shut.

As for Andrew Bynum, one of the two core players that Phil Jackson mentioned, he can only go back a little bit, he is really just a younger brother.

Although Phil Jackson knew that Kobe Bryant's speech after the game was aimed at him, he still praised the Black Mamba after the game: "Honestly speaking, I am not surprised that he did anything. He is another Michael Jordan. You know what I mean? I love everything about him."

The Zen master is proficient in various speech techniques.

In contrast, the Spurs coach Popovich, who lost the series, seemed much more sincere: "Kobe Bryant is another level of player. We have tried our best tonight. We have done all the work we can do. . But he still takes the win, I have nothing to say."

In fact, McBrin, who broadcast the game that night, had a very wonderful analogy: "If Michael was in the North Shore Garden, God put on the No. 23 jersey. Then tonight... the devil Satan reappeared in the world, and the entire San Antonio was covered by 24. The shadow of the number looms."

Doug sat in front of the TV and watched the entire game without missing a second. To be honest, his thoughts were exactly the same as McBrin's.

Black Mamba is scary!

He is like a Gatling with infinite bullets, from the first second of the opening with a blue light chug, until the last second, still spraying hot bullets like a torrent.

"When will I be like him?"

This was Doug's first thought after watching the game. At this moment, he realized what a superstar is... not relying on external forces at all, but relying on himself, all kinds of flashes, all kinds of difficult jump shots, all kinds of tearing up the opponent's entire defensive system... LeBron James Very versatile and comprehensive, but in terms of making opponents desperate, Doug believes that Kobe Bryant is the best in the world.

That night, Doug repeatedly watched Kobe Bryant's highlights no less than 50 times. Kobe Bryant's offensive skills are too comprehensive and solid... Many things can't even be reflected by shooting percentage. In a sense, it is already called art.

"I have to improve my scoring ability."

Duger made up his mind that the most important job this summer is to hone and polish his offensive skills.

There is no way to take advantage of this thing, it must be obtained through hard work.

...

With Kobe Bryant breaking the single-game scoring record, the predictions for the 2008-09 Finals are even more one-sided. ESPN prevented a mighty 29-person expert forecasting group, and no one cast an option other than 4:0.

Everyone's opinion is that the Lakers must win, sweep and advance!

Some people even exaggeratedly suggested that even if the Lakers only use Kobe Bryant alone, they can win the series.

At this time, the atmosphere in the East also became inexplicably weird. Those who originally said in the dark that the Knicks would embarrass the entire East came to the fore.

Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert, who had been worried that James would jump ship to New York in 2010, even spoke publicly in front of the media: "This year's finals will be a humiliating hanging scene for all Eastern teams. Being implicated for our Eastern Conference champions. It's not disrespect to the New York Knicks, it's just that they...shouldn't be there!"

Dan Gilbert's speech was like a boulder thrown into Pinghu, and there were waves in an instant.

Countless voices sounded in the East, nothing more than thinking that the Knicks are not worthy of representing the East in the Finals.

In the midst of these disturbing voices, all Knicks members boarded a plane to Los Angeles. They will start the first game of the Finals on June 1.

When the Knicks' flight was still in the sky, Bynum's interview with the Los Angeles Times was published and quickly caused an uproar.

"There are many ways to win the game, not just one person becoming a superhero is the only answer!"

Bynum confided in an interview with reporters: "It's not cool at all."

The goal of his words is very, very clear.

Even Eddy Curry, who couldn't get into college, can smell the irony of star Kobe Bryant in it.

Can others not know what kind of internal turmoil the Lakers are going through?

Doug frowned as the news sent the basketball media into a frenzy. He believes that this matter is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface. Although Andrew Bynum has made rapid progress in the past two seasons, he has become an average of 15.6 points and 8.6 rebounds per game. In this era of withered centers, his body, skills, and age advantages make him a hot fragrance. cake.

However, with him alone, how could it be hard steel with Kobe Bryant? Isn't this suicidal?

"Could it be that ... the Lakers really had a serious disagreement? Someone deliberately encouraged Bynum to come out and beat Kobe Bryant??"

Doug raised his eyebrows.

The competition at the top of NBA clubs is actually very fierce. In many cases...in order to fight for more power, they will carry out some actions from within the team.

And now... apparently the Lakers are going through that process.

In fact, this is also the best time.

As Barkley said, even if the Lakers' top management is turned upside down, the Lakers will still not be hurt. An opponent as weak as the Knicks is rare.

Therefore, when facing such an opponent, the team's high-level fierce fighting is the most appropriate, because it can minimize the damage to the team.

From this point of view, the two siblings Jim Buss and Jenny Buss still have a bottom line, and both put the team's interests at the top.

People are actually like this. When facing a strong opponent, they tend to work together.

But when the opponent is weak enough, they will have the mentality of "to fight against the outside world, we must first settle the inside".

only….

"The Bath family doesn't respect us a little bit."

Doug muttered softly, and closed the newspaper forcefully.
