My Name is Kobe Bryant

"The Hornets played very actively!!! Their desire for the championship allowed them to complete a defensive counterattack at the beginning of the game!" Collins said excitedly. Josh's connection just now made him ecstatic!

"Steady, the Lakers' next offense needs to be steady. The Bulls led by Jackson were always a team that focused on Jordan and Pippen's defensive counterattacks in the early years, but now this Hornets, their defensive counterattacks are better than 72 wins. That bull is more ferocious!"

"The Lakers should be careful!!! Many strong teams were swept away by the Hornets' offensive! Stabilize the momentum and cannot allow the Hornets to continue to complete defensive counterattacks."

Kobe advances with the ball!

no doubt!

The difficulty of this game is undoubtedly hellish!

Every ball counts!

"DOUBLE FIST!" Kobe made a gesture.

In order to break through the Hornets' defense, Kobe instantly judged that there were several better options.

One, continue to give O'Neal inside singles, bet that Jordan's defense is not in place, and consume Jordan's physical energy

Second, play Grant Hill with the ball in singles and penetrate Hill's point.

Three, pick and roll! Involve the whole team in the attack

In the end, Kobe chose a double pick-and-roll!

Kobe's thinking in this game is very clear!

One person cannot win the game!

He can penetrate Hill, does he still have the energy to penetrate Jordan later?

Once they miss consecutively, the Hornets will rush to kill the Lakers when they find an opportunity!

Letting O'Neal move instead of passively waiting for double-teaming in the low post is a good way to deal with it!

"Horry and O'Neal are pulling up! Double pick-and-roll!"

"This is a signature tactic of the Lakers! With Kobe's unstoppable pick-and-roll ability to handle the ball, O'Neal cuts inside and Horry pulls outside! Such a combination tactic can easily create chaos for the Hornets on the defensive end!"

"Smart! Kobe played so smart! He cleverly used O'Neal's pick and roll to get rid of Hill, got to the basket, shook Divac, and then threw the ball behind him!"

"The basketball passed through the gap between people! The players preparing to defend Kobe from behind did not expect Kobe to pass the ball!"

"Everyone's attention is drawn to OK! Horry is open!"

"'Big Shot Rob'!!! Mr. Big Heart! Catch the ball! Adjust! Take a three-point shot with no one guarding you!"

"Hit! The Lakers responded!"

"Kobe! This is Kobe, the successor to Magic!" Isaiah Thomas climaxed! He was no longer smiling, but laughing wildly!

"This ball was indeed passed beautifully! The Hornets thought he would come by himself or pass it to O'Neal, but Kobe just passed it outside the three-point line!" Kenny Smith exclaimed.

"Personal ability! A reflection of golf intelligence! Most people really can't hit this kind of ball!"

"Nice pass!" Horry gave Kobe a thumbs up.

Kobe responded with a look.

"Hornets Hill advances with the ball!"

"Fall into position! Let's see how the Hornets perform in a position battle!?"

Grant Hill's slender fingers gently moved the basketball.

Lakers defensive matchup.

Bowen-Hill.

Kobe-Jordan.

Eddie - Ryder.

Horry-Rodman.

Divac-O'Neal.

"It's exactly what the coach guessed, so let's fight like this!"

Divac pulls out!

Hill passed to Divac.

Hand to hand!

Divac's body is very wide!

The hand-to-hand between Hill and Divac is also a commonly used killing move for the Hornets!

Hill often catches the ball, takes a lunge, and goes in with his unsolvable first step!

If he is double-teamed, Divac will distribute the ball from the outside. If he has a chance, he will attack the basket directly!

Hill just caught the ball from behind Divac! The first time to immerse yourself in it!

Bowen appeared in front of Hill!

"Hey! Want to go there?" Bowen revealed a lewd smile.

Three years later, Bowen is no longer the rookie who was frightened when he saw Hill!

Hill frowned and thrust!

Brown candy!

Bowen's defense is like a piece of candy, clinging to Hill.

"It's a bit difficult!" Hill failed to pass Bowen, and the two collided!

Bowen cunningly kneed Hill's calf!

Hill even nearly dropped the ball!

Hill thought about it and felt that there was no need to fight with the Lakers' role players at the beginning of the game!

In the end, there was no way to collect the ball and throw it to Divac who was receiving the ball in the high post.

Divac made a long-range mid-range shot.

The ball bounced around the basket and fell into the net.

Hit!

"Good luck." Divac grinned and looked at O'Neal provocatively.

This round of the series!

I'm going to beat you like the Olympics!

"The first quarter is over!!! The offensive and defensive quality of both sides is too high!!!"

"The Lakers' offense relied heavily on Kobe's ball-handling pick-and-rolls, which got the whole team involved. In the first quarter, they made 11 of 23 shots and scored 25 points! Among them, O'Neal scored 8 points and Horry hit two three-pointers! "

"The Hornets' offense relies on Divac! Unexpectedly, Hill did not break through Bruce Bowen's defense. He was obviously holding back! On the other hand, because O'Neal squatted under the basket, Divac got a lot of outside shots. Opportunity!"

"Vlad Divac!!! 5 of 7 in a single quarter, 10 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists! The mid-range is too accurate! And the Lakers have no way to threaten Divac's mid-range! This guy originally played under Kobe Bryant The Yugoslav center who was ridiculed in the trade actually became the Hornets' most threatening point at the beginning of this game!"

"At the end of the quarter, Lakers 25:29 Hornets! The shooting percentage of both sides was very high, but the number of shots was not high. Everyone played a little cautiously! They did not give the opponent a chance to defend and counterattack!"

"The advantage of the OK lineup has not been realized at all! In the first quarter, the Lakers still focused on team offense, and this kind of scattered shots is far from their usual way of winning! In the next game, if this continues, The Hornets will be stable!" Collins boldly predicted.

"Nonsense! In the first quarter, almost all Lakers players had the opportunity to touch the ball. Whether it was Horry who missed a three-pointer, Eddie Jones who didn't have a good touch, or even Bowen who shot two ! This is a very good thing! Continuous contact with the ball will allow them to find their touch! Rather than at the critical moment, OK is double-teamed, and they feel cold when facing the open space!" Isaiah Thomas, as a top ball handler , of course he understands this. In his opinion, Kobe's choice is the best way to play!

"Tch! Just wait! Michael and Grant will destroy your confidence!"

"Kobe and Shaq! They are ten thousand times better than the two guys you brought out!!!"

Kenny Smith and Magic each hugged each other to prevent the Smiling Assassin from fighting with Collins.

The commentators are so hot, and the fans are equally crazy at this time!

Stern looked at the rising ratings and smiled mysteriously.

was suppressed.

Kobe, who was sitting on the bench, frowned.

The Hornets in the playoffs have changed a lot compared to the regular season!

During the regular season, Jordan would not spare no effort to help defend O'Neal from a double attack!

Jordan sacrificed his single defense ability in exchange for strong interference with O'Neal.

Only Jordan can do this for the Hornets. For inside players to help defend and attack, Jordan is at a historical level!

O'Neal lost the ability to beat Divac in the paint, which greatly reduced the Lakers' positional battle threat!

Fortunately, Kobe's pick-and-roll tactics allowed O'Neal to still go down and hit the basket, but this is not a high-yield play after all!

Getting low can be done every time.

The opportunity to slide down after the pick-and-roll is not available every time.

The decline in O'Neal's positional warfare output directly led to the reduction of the Lakers' firepower.

In this game, the Hornets and Lakers are fighting on the same position!

Both sides would rather take fewer shots than give the other side a chance to defend and counterattack.

The defender will not grab offensive rebounds at all, and will always be in a retreating position.

cautious!

Offense wins fans, defense wins championships!

Today, the Lakers' positional battle was suppressed by the Hornets.

Kobe couldn't think of a way to change this situation for a while.

"Both sides have replaced their substitute lineups!"

"The Lakers' bench is the best in the league! After their victory over Houston, experts determined that the Lakers' bench this year is the strongest in the league!"

"The Lakers picked up a guard from Argentina! Then they hired a super sixth man! Manu Ginobili made the Lakers' substitutes full of artistry!"

"Little Fish, Manu, Stephen Jackson, Ben Wallace, Campbell. Such a lineup can even compete in the playoffs!"

"And the Hornets' substitutes on the other side are equally good!"

"BJ Armstrong, Isaiah Leder, Ricky Davis, Derek Coleman, Hoss Grant!"

"Leder, Coleman, and Grant were all former All-Star players! And now they are actually on the bench! The Hornets' bench is the most luxurious bench in the entire league!"

"When Cobra returned to Jordan's side again this season, he was still Jordan's most trustworthy teammate!"

"BJ Armstrong was also the starting point guard for the Bulls' first three consecutive championships!"

"This is almost a replica of the Bulls dynasty!"

"Lydell plays the role of broke Jordan!"

"They are also a substitute team that can reach the Eastern Conference playoff level!"

"The invincible substitute is the key to the Hornets' 73 wins!"

"Without this group of top substitutes, Michael Jordan would not have been able to rest like that in the regular season!"

"The battle between the substitutes of both sides has begun!"

In the starting lineup, the Lakers suffered a small loss.

Kobe didn't exert force.

O'Neal couldn't make any effort.

If the score is expanded, the Lakers are likely to lose time to adjust and be directly killed in a wave.

If the Lakers' substitutes can tie or even overtake the score, the Lakers starters will have enough time to adjust.

The Hornets have three former All-Star substitutes!

This kind of configuration is terrible no matter when it is placed.

Kobe was a little worried. Although Manu was extremely talented, this was his first time playing in the finals!

Once the Lakers' bench core Manu fails to perform properly, it will be difficult to handle!

"Strangled!!! Manu Ginobili was knocked over by Leder! Then BJ Armstrong snatched the basketball from his hands!"

"Ricky Davis made a fast break layup!"

"The Lakers rookie was knocked around! And the referee didn't blow the whistle! Because this is the finals! This is a championship-level confrontation!"

"The strong is king! Every ball is full of physical confrontation! This is the NBA Finals!"

"Manu was restricted! Fortunately, the Lakers' second-year pick, Stephen Jackson, crushed Ricky Davis hard! Killing the inside continuously!"

"But this kind of hard hitting! How long can he last!"

Manu's flowing long hair looked a bit messy. He bit his lip with a stubborn look on his face.

The hornet's physical confrontation was beyond his expectation.

Most of the league's benches are still focused on offense. The strongest bench in the regular season, and so is Houston's bench. After defeating Houston, this demon sword once thought that he was already very strong on the bench.

The old fans of the Hornets gave Ginobili a hard blow!

BJ Armstrong!

Leder!

They are all players who have experienced strong winds and waves!

Their experience in the playoffs is far richer than Manu's, and with the home whistle advantage, they can take full advantage of their physical strength to bully this first-year Argentinian!

Manu bit his lips almost to the point of bleeding! But he still couldn't break this defense!

Fortunately, the defense of the Lakers' substitute lineup is equally strong!

Big Ben and Stephen Jackson, two top hunks, are sweeping around!

The little fish used its muscles to clamp BJ Armstrong's tissue!

Campbell is one man in charge! Tangled with Grant under the basket!

The substitutes on both sides actually engaged in a defensive battle!

The only bright spot was Ryder!

After all, he is an All-Star in his prime!

Facing Manu's defense, he almost became the real Jordan!

"Soft! Argentinian! Your defense is as soft as my mother's freshly baked bread in the morning!"

"Did you see it? This move is called a fadeaway jumper! I guess you can't do it!"

"Go back to Italy and play your amateur league! This is the finals! It's a stage for men!"

Leder spat trash-talking at Manu with a arrogant look on his face.

Manu's eyes were cold and he remembered this scene deeply.

"Fourth quarter!! 3 minutes left!!!"

"The game is going on now, Lakers 87:91 Hornets!"

"The last moment!! Phil Jackson resorted to shark-killing tactics!"

"Divac, Coleman, Grant! Rodman! The four insiders take turns to kill the shark!"

"Kobe, the god of killers, didn't get a single shot in the last three minutes."

"Although O'Neal made 7 of 11 free throws in the end, Jordan hit the Hornets' last three shots in the fourth quarter!"

"competition is over!!!!"

"Lakers 94:98 Hornets!!!"

"Charlotte Hornets, in North Carolina, get their first win of the Finals!"

"North Carolina blue is fluttering in the wind! Victory fireworks are falling on the Charlotte Coliseum!"

"Kobe and O'Neal left the game today! They are losers!"

"Michael Jordan made 16 of 27 shots and scored 39 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 1 block and 4 turnovers! Grant Hill scored 21 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists on 8 of 17 shots for a triple-double!"

"Kobe made 15 of 29 shots and scored 41 points, 7 rebounds, 10 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks and 1 turnover! O'Neal made 10 of 18 shots and finished the game with 31 points, 14 rebounds, 2 blocks and 4 turnovers!"

"OK Gemini, defeated!"

"Is Michael Jordan's sixth championship coming?"
