My Name is Kobe Bryant

"The Lakers won! They won this crucial game at home!"

The Lakers entered the fourth quarter with a 15-point lead.

Of course Jackson and Jordan will not give up the game so easily! Even if it's 15 points behind.

This is G3! G3 tied one to one!

The importance of this game is probably second only to the Battle of Tianwang Mountain and the tiebreaker!

A miraculous reversal is not impossible. Even a 15-point reversal in Jordan's career cannot be considered a big achievement!

Michael Jordan, the name of the basketball god itself means miracle!

Cut the shark!

Add Jordan to unlimited singles!

This is the tactic that Zen Master chose to overtake the score in the fourth quarter.

Since you can't guard Kobe, then kill him!

The Hornets have enough insiders!

Divac, Rodman, Coleman, Grant, old Miller!

None of them are indispensable! Even at the end of the game, there are other teammates who can step up!

5 human shields!

It is used to consume O'Neal!

Unlike the Spurs, either one of the Spurs' twin towers would be a devastating blow to the Spurs.

As for the Hornets, they don't have to worry about foul trouble at all!

"Hey! You dare to slash at me? Big Diesel Shaq's touch today is invincible!" O'Neal walked to the free throw line with a confident look.

All eyes are on you!

The Lakers fans quickly fell silent. This was the quietest moment in a normal game. They held their breath for fear of disturbing O'Neal's free throw!

O'Neill took a deep breath.

Shaked his shoulders.

Take the ball in your hand and spin it!

It feels good in hand!

Then threw it out.

"Bang!" The sound of the basketball hitting the rim made Kobe tremble in his heart!

"Whoa!" The basketball bounced on the rim a few times and fell into the net!

"YES! I knew it! I am invincible in this game!" O'Neal cheered excitedly, as happy as if he had won the game.

Then punish again!

Lady luck is with O'Neal today!

Hit again!

The Zen master's face instantly became very ugly.

He didn't expect O'Neal to make two free throws.

Blind!

He must be fooled!

This kind of ball is a luck ball!

The Zen master couldn't accept it, and he had no way to make the second adjustment.

Now that the tactics are formulated, there is only one way to go to the dark side!

Jordan cursed secretly and asked for the ball to advance.

Facing Bowen's defense, he finished the game with a step-back mid-range jumper.

Easy and freehand!

The God of Basketball is still writing his myth in this game!

"Keep slashing sharks! O'Neal is on the free throw line again!"

"If O'Neal can maintain a 50% free throw shooting rate in the fourth quarter, Phil may continue to kill sharks because Kobe is a greater threat!"

"If O'Neal's free throw shooting rate is above 70%! Then no matter how afraid of Kobe's offense, Jackson will not choose to continue to kill sharks!"

"Because no matter how hard Jordan plays! Even if his efficiency is higher than O'Neal, he can't get back the 15-point difference!"

A 15-point difference.

It is not easy to recover.

The Lakers' average score in a single quarter in the playoffs is 28.7 points!

If the Hornets want to win, they must at least score 37 points and then limit the Lakers to less than 22 points!

If the Lakers play normally, this will be an almost impossible task.

The only hope is to kill the shark, but...

In the next few rounds, O'Neal stumbled into free throws, maintaining a shooting percentage of about 70%.

The Zen master closed his eyes in pain.

This game is gone.

"Congratulations to the Lakers for successfully defending their home court! Winning this game! Hornets 119:127 Lakers! The big score became Lakers 2:1 Hornets!"

"This was a perfect game! Kobe played the best third quarter in the history of the Finals, with 8 three-pointers in a single quarter and 11 three-pointers in the game! Breaking his own playoff single-game three-point record! "

"He made 17 of 33 shots, 11 of 16 3-pointers, 53 points, 8 rebounds, 11 assists, 4 steals, 1 block and 3 turnovers. Kobe's performance in this game is simply incredible!"

"O'Neal was so decisive in this game! Although his hook efficiency is not as good as his ability to rise under the basket! But this allows him to consume a lot of ball rights! The biggest problem with the Lakers' loss in G1 is that except for Kobe Bryant, the ball rights are Digestion."

"O'Neal made 11 of 24 shots and 14 of 21 free throws. He scored 36 points, 21 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 block and 4 turnovers! 30+20!"

"The Lakers' OK twin stars shine in the Great Western Forum Arena!"

"On the other side, Michael Jordan made 22 of 41 shots, 4 of 9 three-pointers, 9 of 10 free throws, and scored 57 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 5 turnovers. Although Michael's performance was no worse than Kobe, he still lost ”

"Kobe's wave of three-pointers in the third quarter was terrifying! Jordan took 41 shots and scored 57 points. Kobe only took 33 shots and scored 53 points!"

"80% of the Lakers' offense in the fourth quarter were O'Neal's free throws. Kobe had no chance to make a shot. Otherwise, Kobe would have shot over 60 points in this game!"

"Grant Hill, played for 48 minutes! He made 11 of 23 shots, scored 25 points, 11 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 1 block and 6 turnovers. It seemed good, but in the 25 minutes when he and Kobe faced off, The performance was 1 of 9 shots, 4 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 5 turnovers.”

"Horrifying! Kobe's dominance is so terrifying! If Master Jackson hadn't asked Hill to play the full 48 minutes and lead the bench, I'm afraid he would have been beaten by Kobe in this game!"

"Lakers youngster Manu scored 11 points and 5 assists! Divac scored 25 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists for a near-triple double!"

"Eddie Jones scored 15 points and Ryder scored 13 points."

"Rodman scored 5 points, 21 rebounds and 8 offensive rebounds. This is a very important point for the Hornets."

"This game is not a war between two people like last year's finals! Both teams performed at a historical level at every point in this game!"

"The two teams are indeed the strongest in history! Two people who need to compete for the strongest players in history can play this kind of game of the century with the help of their teams!"

"This is basketball! There are stars and a team! Everyone comes together to create an unparalleled game of the century!"

"I can't wait to watch the next game!~"

Just the day after G3 ended, public opinion across the United States exploded.

There is so much to watch in this game!

Kobe scored 8 three-pointers in a single quarter and scored 33 points in a single quarter!

Jordan's 57+12.

Grant Hill looked completely different facing defenders other than Kobe and Kobe.

O'Neal's redemption.

A battle between Big Ben Campbell and Coleman Grant.

Manu and Hill's confrontation.

No peeing spots in the whole place!

"If O'Neal can maintain a 70% free throw shooting rate, maybe he can surpass me." Chamberlain said after the game.

"It's not that Hill isn't great, it's all because the enemy has Kobe!!!" Dr. J's comments hit the nail on the head.

"Jordan met Kobe at the end of his career. It was both a blessing and a misfortune for him." Magic said with emotion.

The commentary's emotional witty remarks made this game unforgettable for every fan who watched the game.

The battle of the century!

Fans who have experienced this game will always remember such a legendary battle!

After the Lakers finally won the game, public opinion began to turn one-sided!

The Lakers are likely to win again at their home court.

The Hornets couldn't see anything that could make a comeback.

Hill's performance began to be interpreted wildly.

Once the Lakers win 3:1, there will be almost no suspense about this year's championship!

The Lakers will win their second consecutive championship!

Little dynasty!

Kobe will beat Jordan for the second time!

In the competition for the position of the first man in history, Kobe may be ahead!

As long as Kobe wins 3 more championships in his long career, he will surely surpass Michael Jordan as the number one player in the league!

This is not difficult at all for a defender who is less than 21 years old and has a historical center like Shaquille O'Neal beside him!

"The Lakers' golden age is coming."

In Boston, in the Celtics general manager's office, Cardinal Auerbach lit a cigar with some melancholy.

He knows that even if the Hornets comeback and defeat the Lakers this year.

The future is no longer Michael Jordan's.

What this Lakers have shown is enough for them to dominate until O'Neal's contract expires.

Barring injuries or conflicts in the locker room, the Lakers will rule for at least four years.

O'Neal is also often troubled by injuries. Kobe, like Jordan, is a man of steel and will not get hurt at all.

Or, even if they are injured, it will not affect their ability to play games and perform at a phenomenal level.

As the Lakers' biggest rival, Auerbach certainly doesn't want to see the Lakers rise.

Celtics' 16 championships! But Auerbach slowly worked his way back up one by one.

The Celtics' 16 championships VS the Lakers' 12 championships are only 4 championships apart!

If the future is an era for Kobe, Kobe will win 5 championships guaranteed! Then the Lakers will overtake!

If they are surpassed by the Lakers, it will be an unimaginable nightmare for the Cardinals!

And now this nightmare seems to be coming true!

"Fortunately, we have Tracy." McGrady on the team is the Cardinal's only hope!

Like Van Horn, said to be the second generation of Bird. Two years have passed, and it's just like that. In the future, he will be an All-Star, and he will still be the kind without defense.

However, with the popularity of the space-based fourth position, Van Horn and McGrady are a perfect match and can be regarded as one of the cornerstones of the team.

Fat Tou Tuo was replaced by Billups, and this guard's talent is also very good. If he can get rid of his bad shooting habits and overcome his own inner demons, he will definitely be an All-Star level guard.

Two All-Stars + One Super Giant!

Assemble a group of outstanding role players, and this configuration can definitely challenge the Lakers!

If there is a person in the league who is more talented than Jordan and Kobe, that person is definitely Tracy McGrady!

As long as McGrady can steadily improve one step at a time, he will become the hope of the Celtics!

If it weren't for McGrady, Auerbach might have left the league this year.

He had such an idea.

The Lakers rose strongly, and the team coach was replaced by NCAA coach Pitino.

His voice in the team is getting smaller and smaller, and as he gets older, his energy is getting worse and worse.

"Maybe it's not just Pitino, I need to find another general manager."

Auerbach coughed twice and hammered his waist.

"Now everyone outside thinks that our mother is finished for messing with Fake!" Rodman said angrily.

He came to the Hornets with a basic salary just to beat the Lakers!

But now he's going to be abused by the Lakers again?

The flower bug cannot accept it!

He grabbed 21 rebounds in the last game!

He allowed the Hornets to take a lot more shots!

Although it is half the distance from Bill Russell's 40 rebounds in a single game in the Finals.

But this is also a rare dominant rebounding data in recent years!

In this game, Rodman has the right to be angry!

Hill lowered his head and clenched his right hand into a fist bitterly.

Now he is the one being insulted the most by the outside media.

Jordan is not responsible. His statistics and performance are among the top two in history, on par with Kobe.

Zen Master has no fault, and his tactics have been praised by many coaches inside and outside the league.

So whose fault is it for the loss?

Just to guard against Kobe.

Hill was beaten by Kobe.

The son of America, the All-Star vote king, and the league's appearance when Jordan retired felt the power of this kind of peripheral public opinion for the first time.

Hill has been hailed by the media as the worst small forward in the league in history.

"If I had known better, I would have gone to the Lakers." Cobra Grant said silently in his heart.

There is no doubt that he is here for the championship.

Otherwise, why should an All-Star power forward play as a substitute, and he is not a core substitute.

but. . .

It's not too late either.

Grant's contract expires this year, and his old teammate O'Neal also invited him to the Lakers.

Or go back to Magic and Help Penny is also a good choice.

"Shut up, Dennis, you just dare to say that when the coach and Michael are not around." BJ Armstrong said disdainfully.

"Hush, coach and the others are back." Ryder heard the noise.

The Zen master was in front, Jordan was behind, and the two people walked in.

"Many people outside now think the series is over, what do you think?" Zen Master squinted his eyes, with gray hair and sharp eyes, he looked like a KFC grandpa alive.

His eyes swept over the Hornets players one by one.

"Is that you? Think you can go on vacation?"

"Or you? Want to get a new big contract?"

"Or is it you? Think we're lost?"

Today's Zen masters have changed from the Buddhist image of the past and are full of majesty.

"Coach, I didn't!" Rodman felt aggrieved.

"Bang!"

"That's right! We didn't lose!" Master Zen had a cold face and slapped the table hard. The violent sound made every player present tremble.

Except for the old guys from the Bulls, no other Hornets players have ever seen a face like Phil Jackson!

"This series! It's only 1:2!"

"We join this team for the championship!"

“Runner up equals failure!!!”

"We worked hard all season! We fought hard to win 73 games! We fought hard until the final stage!"

"Now, we are only three wins away from the championship. Isn't there anything you can do?"

"Next game! I want to win!"
