I’m Really Playing Basketball

In the Bobcats' first attack, Chen Xiao made a very difficult and iconic fadeaway jumper at defender Kobe Bryant.

Chen Xiao's ball sense now reaches 100. This kind of ball sense is actually not only reflected in the technical ability of breakthroughs, but also in the connection of Chen Xiao's every ball action on the court.

After Chen Xiao failed to break through just now, he immediately switched to the connection between breaking through and falling back, which was very smooth and smooth.

Even though Kobe had done enough homework on Chen Xiao and had used his defensive skills to the extreme, he was unable to do anything because he was only a little short, and it was a little that could never be made up.

This time on defense, Kobe has gone all out.

It is true that Chen Xiao cannot have such a touch in every attack.

However, Kobe can't be so perfect every time he defends.

Chen Xiao and Kobe are both people with physical limits, not gods.

But there is no doubt that Kobe, who played the strongest defense, could not reach Chen Xiao, who played the strongest offense.

Kobe was convinced by Chen Xiao's extremely difficult attack just now.

Although it seems to be just a little bit short, he really can't reach it and will never be able to reach it.

Of course, Chen Xiao was also very impressed with Kobe's defense this time.

Chen Xiao never said that his breakthrough was invincible, but he basically never encountered a defensive player like Kobe who directly anticipated and blocked his breakthrough.

This is not something that can be achieved by physical talent, it also requires strong defensive awareness and skills.

There is no doubt that Kobe's defensive awareness and skills are extremely strong.

Recently, Lakers head coach Phil Jackson has been saying that Kobe's skills are better than Jordan's and that he is better than Jordan in all aspects.

Maybe this was Phil's intention to retaliate against Jordan, who always made Jordan invisible to belittle him.

However, Phil is not aimless.

Kobe's physical talent is indeed not as good as Jordan's, but his technical ability is at least not much different from Jordan's, maybe even better.

Therefore, when Phil said this, it was not just revenge.

In this defense, Kobe showed his defensive skills and awareness to the fullest.

At the very least, in Chen Xiao's career, he has rarely seen such level of defensive skills.

The first time Chen Xiao and Kobe Bryant faced each other directly on offense and defense, they played so wonderfully, which naturally made the audience very excited.

Not to mention the Bobcats fans, just the ordinary spectators, even professional spectators like Durant and Curry, were quite excited at this time.

"Kevin, if it were you, could you break through Kobe's defense just now?"

Durant frowned very seriously, then shook his head and nodded: "I can't continue to lean back like Chen did when the breakthrough was blocked. I don't have such excellent ball sense and ball control skills." .”

"but……"

"but?"

"If it were me, maybe I would have knocked Kobe away when I made the first breakthrough."

"..."

Curry next to him was stunned by Durant's speech that was very characteristic of Versailles.

However, Durant is not bragging.

Durant's skills and ball sense are absolutely top-notch among players over 2.07 meters tall.

But it is definitely incomparable to Chen Xiao.

But there is one thing about Durant that Chen Xiao can't compare to.

That is, Durant has a pair of long legs that scare Chen Xiao.

Durant's current height is 2.07 meters. Don't be fooled by this height.

Durant's neck is very short, so his legs are longer than those of an average 2.10 meter player.

Therefore, Chen Xiao greatly appreciates Durant's breakthrough.

Not to mention Chen Xiao, even Durant's master Jordan praised it very much, and it can even be said that he was shocked.

With those long legs, coupled with his skills, facing Kobe's defense just now, it is indeed very possible to throw Kobe away directly.

Kobe's defense just now was too focused, and it was very easy for him to take advantage of Durant's huge change of direction.

Therefore, what Durant said just now was actually modest.

After all, Kobe was his idol.

Chen Xiao and Kobe are both his idols.

For fans, seeing the two idols fighting like this will really fill their minds with a sense of immersion and involve themselves in the duel between the two.

At this time, Chen Xiao and Kobe, who were dueling on the court, certainly didn't know how much Durant yearned for the duel between the two of them.

On the court, after Chen Xiao hit the first ball in this year's finals, Lakers point guard Baron Davis, like Chris Cannon, put away his edge in the finals.

In the past, when he was in the Hornets, Baron Davis would do whatever he didn't accept.

As long as there is a show, it must be snatched. When the Hornets' record collapsed, there was a reason why the Hornets' leaders were stealing the show from each other.

The overall strength of that wasp was very strong.

But after coming to the Lakers, Baron Davis is no longer so sharp.

After all, there is a man named Kobe Bryant next to him!

After halftime, Baron Davis actually didn't need Phil Jackson to direct from the sidelines.

In this finals between the Lakers and Bobcats, the matchup between Chen Xiao and Kobe is almost decisive.

For the two teams, it is best to decide between Chen Xiao and Kobe Bryant as soon as possible.

Once the male and female are determined, both sides can adjust their tactics.

For example, if Kobe can't beat Chen Xiao one-on-one, the Lakers will of course have to change the team's tactical strategy in time to make Kobe more dislocated. Although this will be more complicated, there is no way.

The same goes for the Bobcats.

For the teams or head coaches on both sides, the last thing they want to see is that Kobe Bryant and Chen Xiao are playing at a 50-50 scoreline.

In this case, they have no way to adjust the team's tactical strategy, and in the end they can only leave the outcome of a game to the duel between Chen Xiao and Kobe.

To be honest, Jordan must be willing, after all, he loves Chen Xiao so much.

But Phil, he definitely doesn't want to.

Therefore, the strategy of Phil and the Lakers in this game was to let Kobe compete hard against Chen Xiao.

After you have a good matchup and decide the winner, it's time for me to take action.

Originally, although Phil was much easier to talk to after entering the palace for the second time, he was still not as easy to talk to as in this game.

Therefore, Kobe was still very surprised before the game started.

But surprise is surprise, and happiness is definitely happiness.

Being able to play one-on-one with Chen Xiao at will was something he dreamed of, especially his duel with Chen Xiao, which determined the outcome of the finals, which made Kobe even more excited.

In the constant push and confrontation of Chen Xiao, Kobe used his strong balance ability to stabilize his body, and then relied on his better dexterity to get around and receive the pass from Baron Davis.

Chen Xiao is taller than Kobe and has more power than Kobe. In terms of attributes, Chen Xiao's balance and flexibility are both 90, which is not low. But obviously, Kobe's flexibility and balance are definitely higher, and they are one level higher than Chen Xiao. Many basketball games habitually set Kobe's balance ability to around full value.

Coupled with the advantage of Kobe's smaller size, it is actually very difficult for Chen Xiao to prevent Kobe from catching the ball.

Chen Xiao's physical advantage is mainly reflected in the final victory over Kobe Bryant.

However, how could Kobe, who knew this clearly, let Chen Xiao fully demonstrate this advantage?

Want to easily show off your advantages?

Kobe will definitely not give Chen Xiao such an opportunity easily.

So after receiving the ball, Kobe did not try to attack immediately, but very patiently held the ball and beat Chen Xiao!

You read that right, it is indeed walking!

Kobe took advantage of his skills, balance and dexterity to constantly take Chen Xiao around.

At this time, the situation between Chen Xiao and Kobe was almost like a game of 'Eagle Catching Chicken'.

"I have never seen Kobe so patient when attacking in a game!"

Watching Kobe Bryant attack Chen Xiao in singles on the court, Phil Jackson on the sidelines was as shocked as the audience.

As for O'Neal in front of the TV, his mouth was so wide that he could stuff ten eggs into it.

Although his signature is not big, his mouth is indeed big.

Is this a venomous snake?

Shouldn't this damn thing have been pulled out long ago? !

Left foot, right foot, a slow motion, right foot, left foot, slow motion replay!

O'Neal looked at the very focused and agile Kobe on TV, and even a song sounded in his mind!

This rhythm is great!

Not only O'Neal, but even Jordan at the scene, who has been playing the Zen master in this playoffs, following Phil's path and leaving Phil with no way to go, all looked surprised.

Facing Chen Xiao's defense, Kobe's offense was very patient and the effect was very good.

Chen Xiao is tall and has long hands. It is very difficult to hit Chen Xiao from behind.

Even for Jordan, he felt that when he was at his peak, it was difficult to beat Chen Xiao.

He has good physical talent, can jump high, and can hang high in the air, but his playing style is still too grand. His grand style of play is a head-to-head confrontation with Chen Xiao.

This is the most unwise way to confront Chen Xiao.

On the contrary, it is the most correct choice for someone like Kobe to use his skills and flexibility to defeat Chen Xiao. During sports, he can quickly find the fleeting opportunity and avoid Chen Xiao!

On the court, Kobe seemed to be constantly making fake movements with his left foot, right foot, left hand and right hand like a musician. At this time, he really had a kind of concentration on cooking. No, he had been focusing on skills for 40 years. The feeling of 'technical immortal'.

too strong!

Even as a Kobe fan, Chen Xiao has never seen Kobe like this.

"Is this the Kobe who has improved after surpassing the two fateful opponents of Iverson and O'Neal?"

"Kobe Bryant now is the real Black Mamba, the real Black Mamba who is waiting for an opportunity to make a move and kill people with just one move!"

Chen Xiao's defense this time has actually been very hard.

It is already very difficult for many players of Chen Xiao's height to be able to persist for such a long time in the face of Kobe's style of play, and their steps are still neat and not messy.

But obviously, Chen Xiao's balance and flexibility at 90 are definitely far behind Kobe's.

There will always be opportunities for Kobe.

This is not determined by Chen Xiao's defensive skills or personal will.

Just when Chen Xiao's steps hesitated a little because he couldn't reverse it immediately, Kobe used almost the same fadeaway jumper as Chen Xiao just now, stretched Chen Xiao's defense, and threw the ball.

It’s as picturesque as Chen Xiao’s attack just now!

A swipe!

2 to 2!

Kobe used a magic ball to fight back Chen Xiao's magic ball just now!

When Kobe's basketball fell into the net, the Bobcats fans at the Charlotte Bobcat Arena exclaimed, and the audience burst into deafening applause along with Chen Xiao, who was applauding on the court.

On the court, looking at Chen Xiao who was slapping Bobcat fans applauding and cheering for him, Kobe had a surprised expression on his face. After a moment of surprise, the surprise immediately turned into a smile.

"Thanks."

After saying that, Kobe turned around and left with a smile.

This time in the finals with Chen Xiao, neither of them wanted to prove anything.

There is actually nothing left to prove between the two of them.

Now, the two of them are enjoying basketball.

It should be said that now they are enjoying their own basketball.

Especially for Kobe, he thinks so.

For him, facing Chen Xiao in this finals, he just wants to show his current self to the whole world!

He just wants the whole world to see a new, different version of himself!

"Kobe was really strong just now, not only in strength, but also in temperament. He felt like an artist on the court."

Artists on the pitch…

Chen Xiao feels that the current Kobe is worthy of such a title.

This is the first time he has seen such a player in the NBA.

"I really want to know how strong he is now!"

Yes, Chen Xiao really wants Kobe, who has completely sublimated his temperament, to be as strong as Chen Xiao imagined.

S class!

However, the game is still going on, and no matter how much we look forward to these things, we can only postpone them.

But obviously, speculation about Kobe's strength has greatly increased Chen Xiao's fighting spirit and momentum.

This season, because he mainly trains his teammates, Chen Xiao rarely throws crazy shots in a game.

But in this game, whether it was the team's needs or Chen Xiao's expectations for Kobe's strength, Chen Xiao seemed to have pulled out the passing key on the court.

Back up, catch the ball, fade away jumper, all in one go!

In the Bobcats' second offense, Chen Xiao once again successfully beat Kobe Bryant in the corner.

A swipe!

This ball is really crispy!

It also really amazed the audience and made the defensive players despair.

The kind of offense that makes defensive players always feel that they are a little short is the most helpless thing for defensive players.

Kobe is very helpless now.

Before the game, he was really well prepared for Chen Xiao!

However, there was still nothing to be done about it during the game.

"Chen, you're so strong!"

This is Kobe’s heartfelt sigh.

However, from the perspective of the live audience and the audience in front of the TV, experts, and media reporters.

There is more than one god in this game!

If we say that Chen Xiao is a simple and elegant unparalleled swordsman on the court.

Then Kobe is a musician who plays gorgeously on the court!

At this time, Phil Jackson, who wanted to let Kobe and Chen Xiao decide the winner early, was already stunned on the sidelines before the first quarter of the game was over.

"This is...Kobe?"
