My Name is Kobe Bryant

"Scotty! Your teammates don't believe you at all."

"If I were you, I would prove to them who the real leader of this team is."

"You sacrificed everything, from tactical status, honor, to body, and now they think you are the biggest person responsible for the team's failure?"

Kobe said quietly, shrimp and pig heart.

Playing basketball and attacking the mind has always been a very difficult and highly effective activity.

In the early years, Larry Bird told his opponents where he was going to make the final kill, which set up the opponent's mentality!

Later there was Michael Jordan shooting free throws with his eyes closed!

Then there’s Stephenson’s blow to James!

Kobe's double-team players whose contracts have expired will be released to players who have just signed big contracts!

Kobe used the opponent's hometown dialect to trash talk!

There are countless tricks to attack the heart, some are clever tricks, and some are weird and stupid tricks.

The vast majority of people in the NBA are bullies!

Although every player who plays basketball well will not have a low IQ. But they are not considered cultural people. They control themselves more emotionally.

Things like emotions may allow people to perform competitively beyond their own level, but most of the time, irrational emotions are a taboo for players!

"You brat, take care of yourself first! You are going to lose!" Pippen snorted.

Even though Pippen knew clearly that Kobe was messing with his mentality, he was still a little hairy!

"Barkley, this fat pig, must do this in front of outsiders?" Pippen couldn't help but blame Barkley!

"Scotty, it's better than us." Like a devil, Kobe slowly said the words that Pippen couldn't refuse.

Pippen stared at Kobe in disbelief.

Are you kidding me?

Do you really want to lose?

The condition Kobe put forward was to guard Drexler! Let Bowen defend himself!

And what Pippen has to do is not pass the ball to Barkley in the next game?

It couldn't be easier!

In Pippen's view, after he was liberated, Barkley was not necessary at all!

Whatever Barkley can do, as long as the defender in front of him is not Kobe, Pippen can do it too! And he is confident that he can do better!

This is the confidence of the strongest second-in-command in history!

Even if he can't pass it to Barkley, he can still pass it to Big Dream! Dameng's scoring efficiency in this game far exceeds that of Barkley!

Returning to the role of second-in-command, he and Dameng are enough to crush the Lakers!

From Pippen's point of view, Kobe's words were simply a gift!

deliver! Keep sending!

Pippen loved it!

"It's a deal?" Pippen tested whether Kobe was joking or serious.

"Of course, you know my credibility."

Pippen nodded. He had heard about Kobe's reputation in the league.

Then

Give it a try!

If it didn't work, Pippen would go all out, don't be old-fashioned, and return to the previous game mode! It doesn’t matter anyway, there are still two quarters left in the game.

Play one section first to try the effect!

Pippen put aside the strategy developed by Rudy Tomjanovich and other players on the team to kill the game in three quarters and at least open the score to more than 15 points!

And this has become the biggest opportunity for the Lakers to make a comeback!

Kobe smiled slightly, walked over to Bowen, and patted him on the back.

"Bruce, get him."

"How dare you disobey me!" Bowen's eyes revealed a trace of bloodthirsty light!

You don’t think that Kobe is the only one in the Lakers’ perimeter defense, right?

I'm Saint Bowen!

He is Kobe’s strongest helper!

Bowen has been waiting for the day to block the superstar for too long!

"Pippin, let me bleed you!" Barkley was looking forward to seeing what happened!

He stood at the top of the three-point arc!

In front of him, Robert Horry stood three steps away from him with his waist in his hands, loosely and casually!

Big space!

Such a long distance! If Pippen passes the ball, Barkley can definitely shoot a three-pointer!

Or wait for Horry to pounce, and Barkley fakes a shot again! CROSS OVER reaches the inside!

These are all methods that have a 70% or 80% chance of scoring!

Pippen did not choose this option!

He forced Bowen to get inside!

Attack with the ball!

He left Rudy Tomjanovich's assignment behind him!

Forced layup!

Come on hard!

Bowen pushed me in the waist!

The layup missed the basket, and Ben grabbed the basketball!

"Damn, it's just a little bit close."

"I haven't been offensive in a few games, so I'm a little rusty."

"But it doesn't matter! It doesn't matter! Just two more balls and I'll find my touch!"

Pippen is confident!

And his teammates were a little confused!

Barkley stood outside the three-point line and stared blankly!

Dameng's chances of catching the ball are also greatly reduced!

Rudy Tomjanovich, who was sitting courtside, was furious!

And Pippen remained stubborn.

"Damn it Scottie! Pass your ball to me! Then guard Kobe!"

"Shut up, you fat pig! Lie down and let me win!" Pippen retorted directly! The uncharacteristic outburst only made Barkley angrier.

"BITCH, U KNOW U ARE BITCH! WE DONT NEED U! WE WON WITHOUT U!" Barkley's saliva sprayed directly onto Pippen's face!

The two were nose to nose, chattering face to face!

Kobe's eyes lit up!

It's squirting!

Come on!

That's it!

"Bruce, look for opportunities to let him score two more! Let him stay confident."

"Copy that!" Bowen smiled obscenely, and Kobe and he thought of going together.

"What kind of cock-breaking are you doing???"

When Pippen once again ignored Barkley, who was 6 meters away, and forced a layup, Rudy Tomjanovich couldn't sit still and instantly called a timeout!

Tomjanovich was furious!

A fat white man, no one thought he would explode at this time!

Only two minutes have passed in the third quarter, the score is 59:54 Rockets: Lakers!

It seems that the Rockets continue to maintain their lead, but the scene is different!

"What I want is to beat the Lakers to death in the third quarter! Not to waste time with them like this!"

"Scotty! Pass the ball to Barkley!"

"Charles, shut your mouth!"

"You figured it out! Why are you here on this field?"

Olajuwon also frowned. He was a little unhappy with the quarrel between Pippen and Barkley.

"Okay, okay. Keep up the good work, everyone." Drexler played the role of a good old guy.

"This game may be Clyde's last game." The Rockets' eternal boss, Olajuwon, suddenly spoke up.

Glider has delayed his retirement for one season. Even Da Meng has no reason to let him continue his career after being eliminated in the second round.

"No matter what conflicts you have, no matter who is right or wrong."

"Next, give me the ball."

"I want to win!"

Back from timeout!

"What? Your coach scolded you?" Kobe went to defend Drexler, and Bowen appeared in front of Pippen.

Bowen grinned, showing his big yellow teeth.

Pippen groaned in displeasure.

"Little guy, who do you think you are? Why do you think you are qualified to talk to me?"

"Yes, I'm just a trash role player. But the great 'Bison' Pippen was scolded by his teammates and insulted by the coach? If I were you, I would have left the team long ago. Hakeem and Barkley did not treat you at all Be a human being! They just treat you as a tool to win the championship."

"When they need you, they will whisper to you and hold you high. When they don't need you, no matter how high you climb, it will hurt when you fall!"

Bowen's words made Pippen even more embarrassed. At this time, Pippen began to think of Jordan's goodness. Although Jordan likes to point fingers at him, he never plays tricks!

If you don't play well, scold him! Praise if you play well!

Very REAL!

Not like the dead fat pig Buckley, a slave with three surnames!

There are also big dreams that like to pretend to be deep!

Pippen even regretted not following Jordan's advice.

If he, Jordan, and Hill form the Big Three, what will happen to the Lakers?

After getting rid of a big head like Glen Rice, the Hornets' salary is just enough to sign three maximum salaries!

Even if you exceed the salary cap, you need to pay the luxury tax. But the income the championship brings to the team is far higher than the luxury tax!

Pippen was not a rational player, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

Big deal!

I will leave the team!

It’s not satisfying to win a championship with this team anyway. It’s better to go find Jordan, or be traded to a team that doesn’t have a superstar and respect him to be the outright boss!

"Bowen is right." Kobe has been secretly listening to the conversation between Bowen and Pippen.

Pippen's increasingly distorted expression proved Bowen's language skills. This guy who likes to rap on defense is also a good trash talker!

The next game was pretty much what Kobe expected!

Pippen started playing irrationally!

Even though he didn't insist on the bet not to pass to Barkley, he still maintained a high shot!

And Bowen very clumsily asked Pippen to control his shooting percentage to just over 40%!

This hit rate will not be so high as to kill the game! It won't be low enough to make Pippen wake up and recognize the reality, and let Rudy Tomjanovich take responsibility!

A star after all! A 40% hit rate isn’t too bad!

Many stars can score unlimited points with a 40% shooting rate in the playoffs, which is already very good!

But this is not enough!

It's not enough to completely defeat the Lakers!

Even if Da Meng lets go! Play the third quarter!

Even after Barkley couldn't catch the ball, he rushed to the basket and got 4 offensive rebounds in a single quarter. Houston's lead was only 8 points!

At the end of the third quarter, Rockets 73:65 Lakers!

Pippen took 11 shots in a single quarter! Hit 4 goals and score 10 points!

This efficiency is definitely not bad!

But the Lakers are not afraid of such efficiency at all!

Dameng, on the other hand, made 6 of 9 and scored 13 points. He lost Barkley as a point to deliver bullets to him. As an insider, he couldn't take a lot of shots. Although his efficiency is high, his output is not high.

In the third quarter, Kobe handed over the task of guarding Pippen to Bowen, choosing to take the easier task of guarding the glider.

It’s all about conserving physical energy!

Lakers in the third quarter!

Move forward with the struggle! Kobe Bryant scored 10 points on 3-of-6 shooting, and other players shared 8 points!

Houston 21 in a single quarter: Lakers 18!

A battlefield like a meat grinder! The scale of the players' confrontation was so large that the referee had to continuously blow free throws to control the further intensified physical confrontation!

"The most difficult time has passed!" Harris pursed his lips.

The fourth quarter is here!

The Lakers passed the most difficult third quarter!

The starting lineups of Houston and the Lakers almost played the entire third quarter!

At this time, both sides' physical energy is almost exhausted.

After all, the Lakers are young and have more physical fitness than Houston!

"Fourth quarter! Chasing points!" Kobe roared.

"Give me the damn basketball! If you don't want to be booed by thousands of fans after the game!"

Chasing points!

The Lakers have a physical advantage in the fourth quarter! But it is definitely not an easy task to even out the 8-point difference from these hard-working old guys!

Kobe can already imagine the bloody scene in the fourth quarter!

Every ball must be fought for!

Even if those old guys are exhausted, they will use their willpower to bite the Lakers!

This is a fight between trapped beasts!

And if the Lakers can't handle the Rockets' last breath, then the Rockets will still win in the end!

"Tenacious! The players on both sides are so tenacious!"

The fourth quarter!

Just like Kobe expected!

Using a meat grinder to describe it cannot express the brutality of this game.

Pippen wakes up. Not only will he not be able to win the game if he continues to fight like this, he will become the real sinner of the game! Put aside the grudges and start feeding Barkley the ball.

Barkley goes berserk! ! !

Barkley, who had been holding back for a while in the third quarter, was completely desperate in the fourth quarter.

The wrestling scene between him and Ben Wallace is staged again!

The referee gave both technical fouls!

Both sides calmed down!

The malicious actions are reduced, but the scope of confrontation is not reduced at all!

"Kobe! It's Kobe again!"

"Kobe stood up!"

"The second half of the fourth quarter! Kobe has been holding back for a whole game and finally has an explosion!"

6 minutes in the fourth quarter!

Rockets 89:83 Lakers!

At this time, Kobe began to exert force continuously!

First, he shook Pippen away and hit a shot with fantastic steps in the mid-range.

Then he received a pass from Eddie Jones and pretended to shoot from the three-point line, causing Pippen to foul!

All three free throws!

Pippen is anxious!

In this game, Pippen discovered that the most problematic player on the entire team was himself!

It's me!

Pippen was in panic and was fouled by Kobe for a 3-point foul.

Then, the big dream missed the shot!

Barkley grabs the board!

Give it to Drexler on the outside and hit the mid-range shot!

Barkley steals again!

Come on yourself!

He was slapped to the ground by Da Ben!

The basketball was picked up by Eddie Jones!

At the last moment, Eddie Jones completed the key fast break! One-stop chop with one hand!

89:90!

The Lakers overtake!

The Lakers took advantage for the first time since the second quarter of this game!

Houston held on to their lead for the entire game, only to lose it at the last moment due to physical breakdown.

There are 3 minutes left in the game!

Barkley retaliated by passing the blame to Pippen.

Pippen missed a three-pointer.

"They're about to start fighting," said a player in Houston who spoke on condition of anonymity after the game.

Dameng's key goals are continuously missed!

Barkley starts the negative game!

Pippen just started shooting regardless!

finally!

This meat grinder battle, which will go down in history, ended with the physical and mental collapse of several of Houston's core players.

Lakers!

Kobe!

Lasted until the end!

"This is the most difficult victory in this year's playoffs. I pay tribute to the veterans." After the game, Kobe, who scored 51 points, said in front of the camera.

In the end, Houston 95:102 Lakers!

4:1 to advance to the Western Conference Finals!
