My Name is Kobe Bryant
Chapter 23 Deadlock
After the first quarter, 24:19. The bench led by Kobe took a 5-point advantage.
"Boss, we are ahead of last year's Lakers starter! It's too unreal." Fisher yelled, he had just played several wonderful performances in a row. The effect of hard training in the summer is reflected, and Fisher has an advantage in height and strength on the offensive end. Van Exel's competitive state is not very good, and he is not focused on defense, so Lao Yu is very comfortable playing on the court.
"They lacked a core, and now they are a mess, and we are a team!" Kobe raised his head and glanced at each teammate one by one. Their progress was even greater than Kobe expected.
"That's right, I think so too." Ben Wallace was very excited, and the style of roaming and flanking was very much to his liking. He can be said to be the player with the strongest presence on the court besides Kobe, and a few hot pots made the starting team lose face.
"Guys, keep playing like this and prevent their counterattacks." Kobe encouraged his teammates. There was still a quarter of the game, and when the starters adjusted, it was hard to tell the outcome.
Del Harris looked at Kobe with fiery eyes. Is this the future of the Lakers? The player who has just turned 18 is unbelievably mature, and his skills, willpower, and leadership are impeccable. He is simply a born superstar embryo.
The difference in player configuration between the two teams is visible to the naked eye, but under the leadership of Kobe, the bench can still hold a stalemate or even lead.
"Maybe he has hope to surpass Jordan." Del Harris had a thought in his mind, laughed and shook his head at random, feeling that he was thinking too far, and this was not the top priority.
Del Harris looked at the starting lineup again angrily. It seemed that they had a very happy summer. Ceballos had already become a ball, and he couldn't see the heroic appearance of last year's All-Star small forward at all.
"Hey, hey, Nick. You pass me a few more balls." Ceballos didn't know that Del Harris was already dissatisfied with him. In his opinion, he was the No. 2 man on the team, and both teammates and coaches had to rely on him. He, just coax him.
Nick Van Exel's face is a little dark. He was already very angry when he was given the lead by a group of rookies, and this idiot Ceballos who has no competitive status dared to ask me for the ball. Does he know how many shots he just missed? .
Campbell and Eddie Jones are not talkative people, but the scene of falling behind also made them a little embarrassed. They looked at each other and decided to show some real skills.
"Beep!" Rambis blew the whistle to start the second quarter.
This time it was the substitute team's possession of the ball. Just after Fisher dribbled the ball at halftime, Van Exel came up to him.
"Damn it, my old fish was targeted." Fisher was a little flustered. He was about to lose the ball, and he was going to pass the ball to Kobe in his panic.
A vigorous figure suddenly popped out, it was Eddie Jones! Eddie Jones intercepted Fisher's pass, dribbled forward, faced an empty half court, and scored a dunk.
"You're not the only one who can play fast break." Eddie Jones turned his head and said to Kobe.
Kobe smiles, which makes sense.
"ISO, pull away." Kobe gestured, took Bowen's serve, and dribbled forward from half court. The starting team wants to get going, and what the Black Mamba loves most is to kill the opponent when they get up.
This ball is very critical, and the momentum of scoring the opponent will be extinguished. If you don't advance, the opponent will probably speed up and launch continuous attack waves.
Kobe Bryant has experienced this kind of game countless times, and he knows that at this time, he must be absolutely calm. Eddie Jones' defense is very good, Kobe is waiting for a chance.
Eddie Jones was a little dignified facing Kobe. Although Kobe was just dribbling the ball at a very uniform speed, he felt the momentum that would explode at any moment.
Kobe continued to dribble the ball under his crotch, and the rhythm was very slow. On the basketball court, speed is not the only weapon that can break the opponent's defense. Sometimes, slowing down can be more threatening.
A venomous snake is at its most threatening when curled up and hidden in darkness.
Eddie Jones stared at Kobe, who seemed to be full of flaws, a little impatient, and his center of gravity moved forward slightly.
It's now! Bryant blocked Eddie Jones' steal with his left hand, patted the ball forward with his right hand, and stepped short to the right.
Eddie Jones couldn't hold back the center of gravity after the steal, and Kobe took advantage of the situation to pull away from him.
Damn, shouldn't be rash. Eddie Jones had some regrets.
Kobe, who cuts into the middle distance, leaps up slightly. Campbell jumped out and couldn't make up for it! The basketball draws a perfect parabola and falls into the hoop.
"Doo! The goal is valid, and a penalty is added!" Rambis blew his whistle.
"Good shot!" The teammates were a little shocked by Eddie Jones' counterattack, but they immediately stabilized their minds after the ball. They have Kobe Bryant to rely on!
The star's singles play has such an inspiring effect. Maybe the singles play is not the most efficient tactic for a team, but he will always be indispensable.
Stand up when the team needs you. Under the strict defense of the opponent, he still hit the shot. This is superstar.
Players are not machines. When Kobe plays this kind of ball, the mentality of both sides will inevitably be affected.
Bruce Bowen and Fisher immediately pulled up Kobe who was thrown to the ground by Campbell. Beating the non-existent dust of his jersey, screaming and screaming to celebrate this 2+1.
Kobe looked stern. He had made countless shots like this.
Van Exel didn't come by himself, and hung the ball inside after halftime. Campbell pinned Tyrese Knight and turned to score with a hook before Ben Wallace could catch up.
After adjusting tactics in the starting lineup and focusing on the inside, Ben Wallace and Tyrese Knight had no way to deal with Campbell. In this era, the insiders and low-post skills are very good. Ben Wallace and Tyrese Knight No experience defending this type of player.
"Ben Wallace goes forward! Tyrese shrinks to prevent Corey from cutting inside Blount." Kobe adjusted his tactics in time, and he knew that if he didn't adjust the inside line, he would be beaten into a sieve.
After the adjustment, Campbell's difficulty in receiving and attacking the ball has greatly increased. It is difficult to have a comfortable receiving space under the defense of the fast-moving and strong-bouncing Big Ben. Even if he forcibly holds the ball by virtue of his height, he will face Tyrese's inside defense after spending too much time.
"This kid has become an on-field coach." Rambis didn't tell Harris about Kobe's tactics in the summer league. Harris saw Kobe's ability to understand tactics for the first time. Harris found that Kobe could always find him quickly. Have a problem and come up with a solution.
The game was at a stalemate. Under the full defense of Eddie Jones, Kobe could only get some ordinary shots from the middle and long distances, and could not score continuously and efficiently.
As for the starting team, it is still impossible to find an efficient way to score, as if every loophole is blocked to death.
