I’m Really Playing Basketball

The Bobcats and the Lakers finished the first half of the game, and the Lakers completed a go-ahead at the last moment of the half, 65 to 64. The Lakers led the Bobcats by one point.

The Bobcats and the Lakers played very well in the first half, which can be seen from the scores, and the match between Chen Xiao and Kobe must be more exciting than the scores of the two teams.

In the half game, Kobe scored 34 points, while Chen Xiao scored 36 points.

Both scored more than half of their respective teams.

It can be said that the two were the trump cards supporting their respective teams in the first half.

Of course, the two teams are also consciously hitting the ball into their hands in this game.

That's why the two had an almost epic halftime showdown in the first half.

It was precisely because of this epic halftime showdown that at the end of the game, almost the whole world was frantically discussing the excitement of Chen Xiao and Kobe's first half.

During the intermission, the TNT studio could be described as going crazy.

Pippen, who supported Kobe, Webber, who supported Chen Xiao, and other experts and celebrities, almost quarreled and looked like they were about to fight.

No way, who made the competition between Chen Xiao and Kobe more complicated and confusing after the first half?

If the Bobcats took the lead in the first half, then there would be nothing to contend for. Chen Xiao performed slightly better personally and the team also took the lead. What is there to contend with?

If Kobe scores more points than Chen Xiao in the first half, there is nothing to argue about. If he scores more points and the team leads, if he is not the first person, who is the first person?

However, the problem is that the Lakers took the lead, Kobe performed very well, and Chen Xiao won his personal performance, and the Bobcats did not lose much.

This is confusing.

Therefore, after halftime, the debate about first man before the game not only did not subside, but intensified.

After halftime, the game between the Bobcats and Lakers continued.

After Chen Xiao and Kobe played a magical first half, the second half was still the team's main attack.

After Kobe failed to shoot a three-pointer against Chen Xiao, looking back, Chen Xiao received an assist from Xiaopao and made a shot from outside the three-point line. The basketball drew a beautiful arc and brushed hollowly into the basket .

67 to 65!

As soon as the third quarter started, the Bobcats took the lead with Chen Xiao's three-pointer.

In this attack, Kobe's chance was obviously good. He slightly swayed the defense and got a three-pointer. Chen Xiao's chance was also good. Kobe's three-pointer in the fast break after hitting the iron was also a chance.

But Kobe missed, but Chen Xiao did.

It can only be said that although the stability of Kobe's three-pointers has improved now, it is still not comparable to Chen Xiao.

Therefore, the first offense and defense between the two sides after the start of the second half was in the rhythm of Chen Xiao and the Bobcats.

Of course it is very disadvantageous for the Lakers in such a rhythm.

So Phil Jackson immediately yelled at the Lakers players on the sidelines.

And hearing Phil Jackson's shout, Kobe on the court also suppressed his excitement a little.

As a master of psychology, Kobe's biggest challenge in this game is to suppress his psychological desire for the first player.

He wants to win this game so much!

Therefore, when facing a situation where the team is leading, I always want to swallow Chen Xiao and the Bobcats in one go.

When chasing points in the second quarter of this game, he didn't make a single three-pointer.

Is this a missed three-point shot?

No, it was him who was patient and handled all the problems very well when he fell behind.

The offense has enough patience. Even if it fails to score, the Lakers, who have the inside advantage, will not panic.

Therefore, the Lakers were able to tie or even overtake the 5-point deficit in the second half of the second quarter.

But after the team took the lead, he looked a little different again.

There was no way, the temptation of the first person was too great for him.

This is not only an MVP, but also an end to the original dispute between him and O'Neal.

If Kobe could handle this problem so easily, then he wouldn't be the young Kobe forever.

However, this time Phil Jackson's reminder is very timely.

After being reminded by Phil Jackson, and after Chen Xiao led the Bobcats to overtake the score, Kobe calmed down again.

On the court, the Lakers once again attacked.

This time Baron Davis hit the ball into Kobe's hands again, but this time Kobe neither attacked from outside the three-point line nor from the middle distance, but chose to hit the ball to Big Gasol.

After receiving Kobe's pass, Gasol faced Aldridge's defense. After a false shot, he tricked Aldridge, and then forced a breakthrough, knocked past Aldridge's defense and went to the basket. Sol helped block Bynum and dunked easily.

67 to 67!

Watching Gasol, who completed the dunk, raise his right hand to indicate that Kobe passed the ball well, Aldridge also felt regretful.

Once again, I was deceived by Gasol.

In fact, historically, Aldridge's style is not afraid of Gasol.

However, Aldridge is indeed young now, and it has been the same in history. In the first three matches against Gasol, Aldridge did not even score in double figures. Well, Aldridge's offensive area is very wide, and it is basically difficult to be guarded. Mainly on the defensive end, he often commits fouls, resulting in limited playing time.

The same goes for this game.

Gasol is always fouled, and with a lot of fouls on his body, he becomes hesitant when defending, and once hesitant, it becomes more difficult to defend.

"LaMarcus, relax, don't be nervous."

Chen Xiao patted Aldridge on the back and said comfortingly.

This is actually a normal thing. Although this season is Aldridge's second season, it is indeed his first season as a starter after Randolph left.

It's only been a few games, and it's normal to have to adapt to the rhythm of rotation opponents and NBA starting opponents.

When he was on the bench, he could just attack, and there were few opponents in the rotation who needed him to defend.

But now, both offense and defense have to be considered.

Just get used to it gradually in the future.

It was the Bobcats' turn to attack.

At Chen Xiao's signal, Xiao Pao did not look for Chen Xiao in this attack, but looked for Aldridge.

The purpose of Kobe's search for Gasol just now is very obvious, that is, now that the Lakers have a way to score points stably, he can take a break, conserve his energy a little, and at the same time, he can also cool down his agitated mood.

Of course Chen Xiao would not let Kobe have his wish.

Gasol now has a huge advantage over Aldridge.

Chen Xiao definitely does not want Gasol to amplify such an advantage and devote all his energy to defense. Chen Xiao hopes that Aldridge can attack Gasol confidently and decisively.

But Aldridge, who pulled out to receive Paul's pass, hesitated slightly when he felt Gasol approaching behind him.

This game is too fierce. Although he is also a championship player, to be honest, he has never dealt with such a moment in his career.

Especially when Chen Xiao, Paul, and Granger are all by his side, they are responsible for such a major scoring task.

For a young player in his early 20s, it's great to score like this without shaking his hands.

Everyone in this world has never been like a dragon.

Aldridge has outstanding talent, but he is not the super "iron hand" like Durant.

Not everyone has a heart of steel.

So after swaying twice without Gasol, Aldridge hit the ball into Chen Xiao's hands.

After receiving Aldridge's pass, Chen Xiao did not hesitate. He made a slight sudden move and saw that Gasol was already blocking his breakthrough route. Chen Xiao followed up with a difficult mid-range jumper with a step back.

Against Kobe's defense, his body almost flew out diagonally.

"It's too difficult. Chen Xiao's offense is too difficult!"

Teacher Zhang next to me felt distressed.

Chen Xiao was already at the side to contain the situation, but suddenly received Aldridge's passing ball and had to attack even if he didn't want to attack.

This was an attack that came out of nowhere.

If Chen Xiao's arms were not long enough, his shooting technique was purple Qiao's backwards, and he had extremely difficult anti-interference ability, Chen Xiao's attack would definitely be blocked this time.

bump!

brush!

This extremely difficult shot, after hitting the rim hard, fell straight into the net.

Hit!

"A magical attack!"

Seeing Chen Xiao's attack, Barkley next to him sighed with excitement.

After the basketball hit, even Kobe couldn't help but smile and shake his head after being stunned.

This ball can be scored, what else can he say?

It is simply divine.

69 to 67!

The Bobcats exceeded the score by 2 points again.

On the court, when retreating from defense, Aldridge breathed a sigh of relief. If Chen Xiao failed to hit this attack, then he must feel guilty.

After all, it was because of my slight timidity just now that I tricked the team's boss Chen Xiao into throwing a catch ball.

However, while he was slightly relieved, Aldridge became a little nervous and uneasy when he thought about having to defend Gasol next and the number of fouls he had committed.

The Bobcats lost their inside advantage in the second quarter when Aldridge received two fouls.

Judging from the situation when Gasol hit Aldridge just now, he was deliberately creating a physical confrontation with Aldridge.

Aldridge can understand Gasol's intention. He didn't blow it once, twice, but what about three or four times?

Aldridge doesn't think his defensive ability can protect him that well.

However, Aldridge is not a dead wood. Although he does have a delicate heart and is not as brave as Randolph, he is not a coward either. He does not feel that he is a person who can be manipulated by Gasol at will.

Not surprisingly, in this Lakers offense, the Lakers once again hit Gasol, allowing Gasol to attack Aldridge in the low post.

This time Aldridge defended very hard and was not timid or afraid of fouling.

Therefore, Gasol was forced to have almost no chance to take action.

But obviously, Aldridge's defense is so big this time, it will definitely give Gasol a chance.

Although Aldridge was very focused on defense this time, and the results of learning defense from Chen Xiao were also good, and he was not fooled by Gasol's fake shot to cause a foul, but Gasol did more than just this trick.

Although there was no foul on Aldridge, a light back turn still allowed Aldridge to pass cleanly.

At the moment when Gasol passed him, Aldridge was a little desperate.

Now he really can't stand up to Gasol!

But, just when Aldridge was desperate...

Snap!

Gasol, who was about to dunk with one hand under the basket, was slapped by Chen Xiao who stabbed out from an angle and was sent flying off the court!

Aldridge, who was behind Gasol, was stunned when he saw Chen Xiao flying in the air.

Those long arms!

That big hand!

Not to mention Aldridge, even Gasol was shocked.

"How can this be?"

Chen Xiao, who fell from the sky, looked at the stunned Gasol with a smile on his face.

"Nothing is impossible for my eyes, Paul."

"..."

After Gasol opened his mouth wide for a moment, he didn't even know what to say.

In the end, there was only one noun left in my mind.

Eye of God!

Yes, only the Eye of God can complete such an incredible defense!

In fact, at this time, not only Gasol thought of Chen Xiaozhong's Eye of God in the second issue, but Phil Jackson next to him also thought of it.

Chen Xiao was the one who blocked O'Neal's five shots with his left and right hands under the basket!

The second-level God's Eye that Chen Xiao created back then almost destroyed O'Neal and his Lakers.

In fact, it did fall apart in the end.

I have to say that Gasol and Phil Jackson were really right this time. The foul on Gasol was indeed triggered by the Eye of God.

When Gasol played Aldridge just now, he used too many triple threats.

Of course, this is also the reason why Aldridge works hard on defense, and of course it is also the reason why he is just in a defensive position.

On the court, because Chen Xiao took Gasol's offense off the baseline, the Lakers continued to attack. Odom hit the ball into the hands of Baron Davis. Baron Davis failed to find it and was covered by Chen Xiao. Kobe Bryant and Gasol, who was entangled by the excited Aldridge, could only catch the ball by themselves to face Paul's fadeaway jumper.

Strike the iron!

Baron Davis played this ball too confidently. Although his strength did hold up the cannon, the cannon was not that weak.

Don't always think that Xiaopao is easy to bully.

This season, Xiaopao's offense is super strong on both offense and defense.

Historically, starting from this season, Xiaopao slowly gained the upper hand in Davis's competition.

The Bobcats attacked, and this time Chen Xiao still signaled Xiao Pao to find Aldridge.

Although Aldridge was very brave on the defensive end, he was still a bit cautious on the offensive end. Although he did not pass the blame to Chen Xiao, he did pass it to Granger.

Fortunately, Odom was a little distracted at this time, otherwise it would have been a steal if Artest replaced him with such a pass.

Odom's lack of concentration this time even made Kobe swearing next to him.

Fortunately, Granger's pull-up jump shot didn't hit either.

In this game, the backhand and other Lakers outsiders felt a little cold.

This is normal. After all, except for Chen Xiao and Kobe, the other outsiders attack less and it is difficult to maintain their touch.

Looking back, the Lakers attacked. This time the Lakers were still looking for Gasol, but because of the previous attack, Gasol did not underestimate the defense of Aldridge and the Bobcats.

This time Gasol's offense was much more cautious. After shaking Aldridge a few times with the triple threat, he noticed Chen Xiao's movement. Gasol immediately hit the ball to Odom's hands outside.

In order to cooperate with Chen Xiao's movement, Granger was on his way to rotate to Kobe. He was suddenly passed a ball by Gasol, which indeed penetrated the Bobcats' defense.

It can only be said that Gasol's ability to support the ball is too strong.

It's a pity that Odom's offense this time was as bad as Granger's just now.

"What a pity, what a pity!"

Seeing Odom's careless three-pointer, Kenny Smith next to him felt pity, not to mention Phil Jackson and the Lakers fans in front of the TV.

Before the third quarter of this game started, many people were predicting that Chen Xiao and Kobe would continue to stage the ultimate showdown in the third quarter.

But judging from the final result, Kobe was a little weak in the third quarter.

After the Lakers gained the inside advantage in the latter part of the first half, Kobe also had the opportunity to hold back a little. This was really smart, because Kobe also knew that his physical strength was actually somewhat inferior to Chen Xiao's.

But Chen Xiao had no choice but to accept it.

After several failed attempts to find Aldridge, Granger and Cannon felt a bit cold.

In the third quarter, Chen Xiao's offense was a bit fierce.

In the whole quarter, Chen Xiao scored 6 of 11, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 18 points again in a single quarter. After three quarters, Chen Xiao had already scored 54 points. It will be a 60-point night for Chen Xiao.

On the opposite side, Kobe took 7 shots in this quarter, 4 of 7, 0 of 1 three-pointer, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 12 points in a single quarter.

Although Kobe had 6 points less than Chen Xiao in this quarter, the Lakers were only 1 point behind 31 to 32 in a single quarter.

Because the Lakers' Gasol made 3 of 5 in this quarter, 3 of 3 free throws, 9 points and 2 assists in a single quarter, quite a wonderful performance.

So after three quarters, the Bobcats and the Lakers miraculously scored 96 to 96!

The two teams actually tied!

This really made both the Bobcats fans at the scene and the Lakers fans in front of the TV feel their hearts in their throats.

"This competition is so intense!"

Although this game between the Bobcats and the Lakers, many people speculated before the game that it would be very intense.

But it's unbelievable how intense it is.

However, the shock is shocking, the intermission at the end of the third quarter is over, and the fourth quarter is about to begin.

When the players of the two teams are on the field again, everyone knows...

"The fourth quarter started, and Kobe was still on the court!

at the same time!

Wonder Boy is also there! "

The decisive moment is coming!
