My Name is Kobe Bryant
Chapter 793 He is on the road to becoming the strongest in history (4K)
"Duncan limited Kobe's field goal percentage to less than 50% and even blocked three beautiful shots. This is the first post player in the league to do so."
"I have to admit that Tim Duncan is currently the player with the strongest defensive ability in the interior."
"But he also paid the price and left the field with six fouls."
"The Spurs' GAME ONE in Los Angeles collapsed."
"Spurs 109: Lakers 127. Kobe scored 48 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, 1 block and 2 turnovers. O'Neal scored 31 points, 17 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, 4 blocks and 3 turnovers."
"OK scored 79 points, 24 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 steals and 5 blocks!!!"
"On the other side, Duncan scored 43 points, 18 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 blocks, 1 steal and 3 turnovers, Richmond had 21 points and 4 rebounds, and David Robinson had 18 points and 7 rebounds."
"Duncan almost scored 40+20 points and defended Kobe at less than 50% shooting, but they still lost."
"The moment Duncan was hit for six fouls, the Spurs lost hope of victory."
"Kobe is on the road to being the strongest in history"
The first game between the Lakers and Spurs is over. No surprises, the Lakers won steadily.
Just like many people believe that the Spurs pose a threat to the Lakers, I also recognize that the Spurs and Tim Duncan are capable of stopping the Lakers and Kobe.
But it turns out that Kobe is far greater than we thought!
Why does a player with a shooting percentage of less than 50% have such a great impact on the game?
Kobe infused the Lakers with a championship spirit!
O'Neal at the beginning of the season and the Shaq now are completely different.
The Argentinian guard, the No. 23 pick, played as the league's strongest sixth man.
Derek Fisher, Bruce Bowen, Ben Wallace, and Stephen Jackson, the role players in the Lakers' championship team last year, have risen to a higher level again this year.
Robert Horry, Dell Curry praised Bryant as the best teammate they've ever had.
Mullin, the left-hand God who left the Lakers, believed that Kobe was a natural leader.
All of this shows that Kobe's influence on a team is by no means as simple as data and offense.
From an unknown No. 13 pick, Kobe took just one year to compete with the strongest team in history and reached the top of the world in two years.
In his third year, Kobe is already on the strongest path in history!
MVP? Just the beginning.
Scoring champion? That's as it should be.
The All-Star MVP belongs to Kobe!
The championship and FMVP are the honors Kobe wants to win!
The desire for victory makes Kobe shine in every game!
23VS24 will be staged again in the finals!
If he defeats Michael Jordan again this year, he will win his second championship.
At the same time, he will also become the out-and-out king of the NBA!
——Los Angeles Times
"Coach, I have completed your task." Duncan's face was expressionless, but his eyes were a little downcast.
"I know," Popovich responded with a wry smile. Duncan did what he said, scoring 40+10 and limiting Kobe's shooting percentage to less than 50%.
this task. . . I'm afraid there is no other player in the league besides Duncan who can do it.
But even so, the Spurs still lost.
The Los Angeles media went into a frenzy!
In almost every report, you can see sections praising Kobe and the Lakers!
The Spurs suddenly became a stepping stone for the Lakers, and Duncan became the clown who overestimated his capabilities and tried to provoke the King of Los Angeles.
The Lakers are no longer a team that can win by restricting one player and defeating one player.
Even Popovich has to admit that the Lakers are already a truly legendary team.
From starters to substitutes, they are the strongest in league history!
The starting lineup is OK, and there are a group of strong players on the bench!
How can we win if we just rely on Duncan alone?
A legendary team, it is never that simple to defeat them.
However, the more this happens, the more Popovich wants to win against the odds!
Sports competition is not a sport that can be done by comparing the pros and cons on paper!
There must be a chance to win!
Popovich is thinking and reflecting.
Is there something wrong with the strategy?
Popovich began to think deeply.
If Duncan's single-core offense does not lead the team to win the game, then what kind of way can win the game?
Maybe it was a mistake to compete with the Lakers for superstar ball from the beginning?
Maybe Harris putting Horry on the court was a trap?
Superstar ball. Is there no hope of winning against the Lakers and Kobe?
If OK is the limit of superstar ball, then what kind of basketball can beat the Lakers?
Popovich felt he had fallen into the trap of asking Duncan to play something he was good at.
Maybe Duncan can also complete 40+10, but in most cases, Duncan still prefers 20+10+5, not occupying the ball, and attacking as a team.
This kind of Duncan may be the strongest Duncan! A team leader is always more useful than a star who can only work alone!
If Duncan alone can't defeat the Lakers, what about letting all the Spurs players participate in the offense?
The current basketball is actually not the basketball Popovich wants! What he learned from Nelson and Larry Brown was by no means as simple as letting Duncan play superstar ball.
"Tim, next game, we go back to regular season mode."
"Ball! Move it!"
Popovich clenched his fists and made up his mind.
"The Lakers won again." Grant Hill handed the newspaper in his hand to Jordan.
"I know, I watched the live broadcast." The basketball god has been paying close attention to the Lakers' games.
In the eyes of God!
The only player who can compete with him is Kobe!
He recognized no more than 5 players in the entire league, and Kobe was the first to bear the brunt!
He and Kobe have yet to decide the winner!
It’s currently a one-to-one tie!
The results of this year's competition are crucial.
If Jordan wins again, he will win his sixth championship in his career!
Beyond the Magician!
Successfully ascended to the throne of the first person in history!
The result of the duel between him and Kobe has always been locked at 2:1. No matter how many honors Kobe wins in the future, he will always beat Kobe!
Thinking of this, the God of Basketball felt secretly happy in his heart!
If Jordan, who suppressed an era, could suppress the strongest player in the future at the end of his career, such an honor would be enough to satisfy him.
Even if Kobe wins 7 or 8 championships in the future. There will also be many people who will stand up and say, Jordan 2:1 Kobe!
In this way, Jordan's throne as the number one player in history is secure!
Only the Lakers can reach the finals.
And the only one who can defeat the Lakers is himself!
This is the confidence of Michael Jordan.
Jordan's final obsession in his basketball career was to defeat the Lakers and Kobe!
If it weren't for this goal, he wouldn't have stayed in the league. He even scored more than 30,000 points this season.
Jordan doesn't like others looking at him like an old fossil or an antique!
Danzi prefers the young and unbridled self.
If he grows old, he is unwilling to show his vulnerable side.
When will he defeat Kobe, it will be time for Jordan to leave this league.
"Dennis, can you do what Duncan did, blocking Kobe with unlimited defense changes?" Jordan suddenly asked Rodman.
When Rodman was with the Pistons, he played a lot of time at the small forward position.
In the confrontation between the two dynasty teams of the Pistons and Bulls, Rodman was very effective in defending Pippen and Jordan, but this was also inseparable from Chuck Daly, the godfather of the Pistons' bad boy army. Defense.
If Rodman can achieve the same effect as Duncan, then the Hornets will be stable!
"Michael, if I were ten years younger, I would say yes." Rodman snorted this sentence from his nose. It was difficult for him to admit that he couldn't do it.
The arrogant and unruly Rodman was never willing to admit that he couldn't guard a certain player.
But that's Kobe
It was two consecutive finals, and one person picked out Kobe, the entire defensive line of the Bulls dynasty!
If Rodman could handle Kobe, he would have done it.
Being ten years younger and being able to guard Kobe was just an excuse for Rodman.
He knew clearly that he couldn't do it!
No matter how! He can't even do what Duncan is like!
If there is one power forward in the league who can do this, it is only Kevin Garnett of the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The young Rodman was many levels away from this kind of historical talent monster, and the now 38-year-old Rodman is even less able to do this.
"Michael, let me try when the time comes." Grant Hill clenched his fist.
Jordan was silent and took a deep look at the league's number one small forward in front of him.
"Allen, Lamar, welcome to Los Angeles." Kobe gave the Philadelphia Twins a hug.
After Kobe invited the two of them, they instantly ended their vacation and came to Los Angeles.
There are really not many NBA stars who are willing to stay in shape during the off-season, and there are even fewer players like them who come to Kobe for training just after the season ends.
"Boss! Kevin knows we are coming, and he has to come too."
Only the crazy iron-blooded wolf king is willing to accompany them in their madness!
On the one hand, they improve themselves, and on the other hand, they help the Lakers defeat the Hornets!
The Hornets swept the 76ers, leaving these young players in Philadelphia very unconvinced.
"I'll let you deal with Michael first, and I will get back the blame from him next year!" Iverson said to Kobe arrogantly with a handsome head.
"Yes! We will win it back next year!" Odom also nodded. The left-handed magician's desire to win is obviously much stronger than in the previous life.
"I look forward to meeting you in the Finals." Kobe raised his chin.
When His Majesty the Flying Tigers gets old, the team in the East that has the most potential to replace him is really the Philadelphia 76ers.
Adelman's Princeton has the most suitable arrows and starting points for him, coupled with the strongest defensive center Uncle Mu. As long as Iverson and Odom can step up to the next level and accumulate some high-quality role players, they will be a top team!
The Heat and Pacers didn't have a huge pressure, and they were always missing something.
The Magic, on the other hand, are filled with operating space with billion-dollar contracts, and Pence's foot injury is also a very big hidden danger.
Now it seems that in the post-Jordan era, only Philadelphia and the Celtics in the Eastern Conference have the potential to threaten the Lakers.
An old rival in the previous life, the Pistons have lost Ben, the defensive core, and are still far from being successfully rebuilt.
Of course, this is all for later, now Kobe is facing the most powerful team in history!
"Tell me what you think of this wasp."
Kobe and the Philadelphia Twins did not exchange pleasantries and directly dragged them to the Lakers training facility.
The Lakers players are also not surprised. Many of them have trained together at the Mamba Academy.
"Very strong." Iverson held it in for a long time before popping out these two words from between his teeth.
He didn't want to admit that the pressure Jordan and Hill gave him almost suffocated him!
Except for the last game when he took crazy shots and broke the block, in other games, Iverson completely lost his influence on the game.
When a superstar loses his influence on the game, it is impossible for his team to win!
Four games!
Except for the last game, the Hornets had Philadelphia at their mercy in every other game. As long as they wanted to, they could lead by 30 points in every game!
That kind of dominance is still fresh in Iverson's memory.
"Boss, this Hornets can seamlessly switch between team mode and star mode. This is their strongest point." On the contrary, it was the left-handed magician Odom who hit the nail on the head with his super high basketball IQ.
The Hornets' team offense is launched around the two points of Divac and Hill, with Jordan as the first end point. Drive other players' offense.
This is a higher-level triangle offense than the Bulls!
Jordan may not take many shots, about 18 in each game, but the Hornets' team's offensive efficiency is terrifying!
The three corners of Jordan, Hill, and Divac can be seamlessly connected no matter what kind of players they are paired with! Double the combat power of every role player!
And when it comes to key goals or when the score is cut off, Jordan and Hill can stand up and use their unparalleled personal abilities to take over the game.
This makes the Hornets team particularly difficult to target!
It's completely different from the previous Bulls, where as long as Pippen was strangled, half of the team's offense was paralyzed!
"Don't they have any weaknesses?" Xiao Yu shamelessly approached.
"If there is a weakness, there is only one. That is Jordan." Iverson's words made the Lakers players incomprehensible for a moment.
"Beat head-on! Even crush Jordan, this is the only weakness of the Hornets." Iverson's eyes were shining, this was his understanding!
Only by completely defeating Jordan!
Only then can we defeat the Hornets!
Once the strongest point is broken, the blow to this team will be devastating.
Iverson found a solution in this series that he believed could solve the problem.
But he couldn't do it.
What about Kobe?
