My Name is Kobe Bryant

During the intermission, Harris affirmed that the tactical execution in the second half still centered on Kobe.

"Kobe, just play like this! Stay aggressive." Harris knew that Kobe's offense is the lifeblood of the Lakers. If Kobe can maintain this kind of touch, then the third quarter may be the final game, and if Kobe is restricted , O'Neal is also difficult to play under the heavy siege of Barkley and Olajuwon.

When he put Ben Wallace on the court, he handed over the outcome of the game to Kobe.

Kobe nodded. Needless to say, he also knew that he would continue to attack unscrupulously, even more ferociously than in the first half.

Houston's perimeter defense has been dragged down by Matt Maloney, an excellent three-point shooter who doesn't have much defensive ability. His presence means that Houston must dislocate Kobe, either with Elie or Drexler.

These are two poisons. Ellie can't prevent Kobe's shooting, and Drexler can limit Kobe, but he can't perform well on the offensive end due to excessive physical consumption.

Rudy Tomjanovich must choose a poison to eat. Last time he chose to believe in Drexler, this time he chose Mario Ellis.

"Persevere! It is impossible for the Lakers to continue to maintain such a touch. The shooting will always be unstable." Rudy Tomjanovich has no room for adjustment, and he chooses to continue using the current tactics.

Olajuwon narrowed his eyes. Based on his understanding of the situation, a crazy outside superstar can shoot Houston to death.

Gritting his teeth, Drexler had an idea.

"Hakeem, in the third quarter, I'm going to attack." Drexler said to Olajuwon.

"Well, no problem."

Barkley left tears of envy on the sidelines. He was originally the main attacking point at the beginning. But after Ben Wallace came on the field, he never had a good chance to perform.

"For the victory, for the championship, Charles, be patient." Barkley said to himself, trying to hypnotize himself. He always felt that he could not integrate into this team that had already won two championships. But he is continuing to try.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Houston has the ball.

Drexler came to the top of the arc with the ball. In the first half, he made 3 of 7 shots and made 4 free throws. He scored 10 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.

"Boy, your defense is good, but you can't guard me." In front of Drexler is Bruce Bowen. This future top defensive player is currently trembling in front of Drexler.

Bowen stared at Drexler, he seemed to see the appearance of a prehistoric brontosaurus, and the wild atmosphere was spreading, which was completely different from Drexler before.

Bowen had goosebumps.

Drexler didn't make any sense, and with a quick step, he passed the stunned Bowen completely. Going straight to the basket before the touchdown arrives, flying, gliding, and dunking the ball in the basket with ease.

"Too... too fast?" Bruce Bowen couldn't believe that a veteran had passed him clean.

"No, I'm too slow..." Bowen came back to his senses, and found that he was actually intimidated. Drexler's absolute speed was not fast, but he carried that indomitable, prehistoric aura Too scary.

Kobe looked back and sighed, Drexler flew really far, no wonder he has the nickname of glider.

Is Drexler on the verge of playoff-level form? This is a great drain on his body, and at the same time his ability can return to its peak for a short time.

And the peak glider is a player with 27+8+6 superstar performance, which cannot be restricted by the current Bowen.

It seems that this game is far from over. Kobe's mouth curled into a smile.

This way the game is more interesting. The fun of basketball is not only about winning or losing, the middle link is often overlooked.

The offense and defense switched, Kobe held the ball to the three-point line, and Ellie lowered his center of gravity. In the first half, Kobe, who was attacking without the ball, had already scored 15 points in front of him. He watched Kobe's movements cautiously, not daring to be careless for a moment.

Now that Drexler made the move, Bryant was going to respond. a jumper? No, that doesn't fit Kobe's character.

Fist to fist, palm to palm. If you deduct one, I will return one to you.

Moved!

Kobe rushed to Mario Ellie with an unsheathed sharp knife.

Don't think about the past, Mario Eliza is waiting for Kobe's impact.

Going to hit it!

At the moment when the two were about to collide, Kobe slapped the ball behind with his right hand, blocked Mario Eli's press with his left hand, took a big step with his feet to get stuck in his body, and turned around like a spinning top from Mario Eli's side slip past.

Olajuwon and O'Neal fought together and had no time to care about him, but Barkley put down Ben Wallace next to him to defend.

Kobe only had the basket in his eyes, and Barkley, who had no scruples at all to defend, stepped into the penalty area and rose from the ground in three steps.

"Get down!" The villain Barkley also jumped high. Barkley's bounce and strength are absolutely historical, and he can contribute amazing blocks every time.

Just to detain you!

Speed ​​is the key to everything. Barkley waved his hand in the air, Kobe sideways smashed the ball into the basket, and then the two bodies collided heavily.

Kobe was hit by Barkley and lost his center of gravity, and he was about to fall to the ground. Barkley, who landed firmly next to him, quickly reached out to help Kobe.

"AND ONE! The goal is valid, and a free throw is added." The referee whistled, and Barkley had just stepped on the line, which was a defensive foul.

Kobe's dunk ignited the atmosphere of the Great Western Forum, the fans screamed, and countless flashes flashed to record this moment.

Then these pictures will be disseminated to various newspapers and magazines, printed into posters, and disseminated.

"Charles, so you're a nice person." Kobe smiled, he really didn't expect Barkley to help him, and the violent collision just now may really hurt him when he fell to the ground. There are not many people who are willing to help their opponents when they are the background board, especially Barkley surprised Kobe.

"Humph, I'll give you a piece of advice. Don't play like this. I don't want to see the future of the league be compromised by an insignificant dunk!" Barkley's face was cold and hot, he was cursing but his behavior was very professional .

"Good job." Olajuwon came over and patted Barkley on the back.

"Charles, this free throw is for you." Bryant threw the free throw directly to the backboard amid the cheers of the Great Western Forum Arena. He believed that Barkley's move was enough to offset the foul.

"Stinky boy, you don't need to let me. The next time you dare to enter the penalty area, get ready to lie on the ground!" Barkley looked fierce.

Kobe knew that the current Big Three still regarded themselves as juniors and were unwilling to play tricks.

If it really enters the playoffs, then the situation will be completely different.

Maybe it is really possible to be overturned by Barkley, but is Kobe afraid?
