Reborn My Name Is Kobe

After the start of the second quarter, our Lakers' bench players were still in pretty good shape. Especially under the leadership of Eddie Jones and Byron Scott, they have been maintaining a pretty good competitive state, allowing the Timberwolves' bench players to

It's a bit overwhelming. To be honest, the overall strength of the Timberwolves is indeed a bit unsatisfactory. After all, there are some problems with the configuration of their entire team.

In the current Timberwolves, although there are still good rookie players, they lack the main core players, especially the main players in their twenties. If there are no main players at this stage,

If you support it, it will be difficult to really have a good impact on this team.

And from another aspect, the Timberwolves also lack older veteran players. Many times, the role of veteran players in a team is really not easy to see.

Veteran players will have a more positive effect on the team psychologically and throughout the game.

Our Lakers actually do a relatively good job in this aspect. We also have older players, main players in their twenties, and potential rookie players. It is precisely because our Lakers have such a

Only with a better lineup combination can the overall strength of our Lakers team reach such a relatively good situation.

Of course, this is indeed a very rare thing. When the Timberwolves are playing games at this time, their players often make some decisions that are not so correct. This is from the players to the team management to the coach.

There are problems in a series of links, and there is no way to simply change this bad state.

To be honest, there are actually many teams like the Timberwolves in the entire league, but there are relatively few that can really go to the next level. Such teams often have to choose another path.

To carry out reforms, one of them is to constantly mess up, and then use it to get better draft picks. Only by doing so can they have a small chance to help them change the destiny of the team.

Sometimes the fate of the team is like the fate of each of us, full of all kinds of impermanence and tragedy. And what should I say? We humans always have some kind of difficulty when facing various tragic fates.

Tragic thoughts of resistance, and these tragic thoughts are sometimes good and sometimes bad.

In fact, not all tragic situations will necessarily bring bad consequences. We can see that when facing difficulties, a large part of us humans can still make very good changes.

Therefore, when facing difficulties, the choices each of us make will lead to different final results. So in fact, tragedy does not mean that there is no way to fight against it. As long as we work hard to challenge fate, we will find that,

One day hope will come back to us.

Each of us works very hard to face the challenges from fate. Although not everyone is lucky enough to become the ultimate winner, in this process, after all, we have really worked hard, so no matter in the end

We all have a clear conscience about what the outcome will be.

This point is very critical.

Just like the difference between me in my previous life and me now, although I may have made great efforts in my previous life and wanted to change something, when the time is not so mature, maybe all the efforts we have made will

Hard work may not always lead to great gains.

It doesn’t mean that you will definitely gain something if you work hard, but if you are not willing to stand up and challenge your destiny, if you don’t even have the courage to challenge your destiny, or you have lost this courage

, you will find that your life is actually missing something. This feeling is very special, but it is also very real.

Now I gradually have some deeper insights after looking back on my past life experiences. No matter what, when I recall those things now, when I look back on those past years, I find that I can see through the superficial situations.

I have seen some deeper things clearly. I don’t know what I can do after knowing these things, but our destiny is often so unpredictable. If we can really continue, everything about us will be different.

Ordinary changes.

Soon it was time for the substitutes, and once it was our Lakers' starters' turn to play, for our Lakers' starters, this is a process, and it is also something that is difficult to explain clearly.

We experience different games every day, but the game itself may not be so enjoyable for us.

There are only a few minutes left in the second quarter. At this time, both sides have sent their best players to prepare for a life-and-death struggle with their opponents. Shaq seems particularly excited at this time. It seems because I am in Canada.

He successfully dunked over his head, so he also wanted to achieve a similar feat.

The Timberwolves' first offense still chose Marbury to launch the attack at a high position at a 45-degree angle. However, I found that the Timberwolves seemed to have adopted another tactic at this time. Garnett stood near the free throw line, and Marbury

Brie moved up 45 degrees from the baseline to create a pick-and-roll for Drexler, and Drexler used this pick-and-roll to quickly move toward the baseline.

OMG, this seems to be the Timberwolves version of the triangle offense. I know because I don’t have it.

He has the first time to follow the movement trajectory of the glider Drexler, so he will directly attack our basket through the baseline.

At this time, my pursuit route was blocked by Garnett near the free throw line, which made it impossible for me to go to the best defensive area at the first time. The only person who could stop the glider at this time was Shaq.

Although Shaq's defensive reaction speed was quite good this time, and the glider blocked his offensive route before it entered the penalty area. However, at this time, Olajuwon, the big dream, cut inside along the free throw line and easily

Received a ground pass from Glider Drexler and scored a dunk.

This tactic is the first time the Timberwolves have used it in these two games. There is no doubt that we are not mentally and tactically prepared for this. In fact, as a team with top players in three positions,

The Timberwolves' triangle offense is very powerful. Unlike the Bulls' triangle offense, which is all about Jordan, the Timberwolves' triangle offense has at least two points with strong ball handling capabilities and two points with strong offensive capabilities.

Despite this, I was able to judge at the first moment that this was a triangle offensive tactic. This seemed to show that my tactical literacy had been greatly improved from another aspect. Since the start of the game, I often watched the video of the Bulls and Jordan games. Indeed,

I am quite familiar with this offensive tactic.

Shaq, who originally wanted to dunk in front of Olajuwon, instead let Olajuwon dunk one in front of him. In the next offensive round, Shaq held Dream on his back and fought hard.

Waving his arms to get the ball, Shaq's position is very solid, and it is impossible for ordinary people to interfere with his position. The only thing that needs to be paid attention to is the pass-through steal from other people around him.

However, the ball I pass to Shaq is usually relatively fast, and the starting point is relatively concealed. I try to pass the ball to Shaq before other defensive players notice, so that he can find it in the first time.

Better offensive opportunities.

Shaq held the ball behind his back and first carried Dameng twice. Dameng couldn't bear Shaq's huge strength and could only take two steps back. However, Shaq did not continue to use force backwards, but glanced at himself with his eyes.

In the direction of the high position, Dream Olajuwon followed Shaq's gaze and hesitated briefly.

At this time, Shaq used his best shark turn, turned his back along the baseline and reached the innermost part of the penalty area. At this time, the big dream Olajuwon had just reacted, but his speed was indeed

Astonishing, his reaction speed, movement speed, and jumping speed are much better than ordinary inside players.

However, what he faced was Shaq, who was higher than him in height, strength and weight. In the face of absolute power, Dameng's speed was not enough to make up for it. Well, Shaq finally got his wish and dunked a ball over Dameng's head.

, at this time, the cheers in the Staples Arena were endless, no less than the cheers that sounded when I succeeded in dunking before.

Shaq is still strong enough. In fact, he can still have a certain advantage over Olajuwon with a strong front. His real problem is that he always fails to grasp the core point when defending Olajuwon. Of course, this

You can't blame Shaq. After all, with Olajuwon's comprehensive skills and extremely high basketball IQ, Shaq has no idea what method the Dream will use in his next attack, so the confrontation between them is even more complicated.

Most of the time they explode with each other, and no one can restrain the other.

In this case, it is their teammates who decide the direction of the game. Of course, I will not be the one holding back, but to be honest, the value of this game is much higher than the last one at Toyota Center.

First of all, the level of investment and attention that both sides put into this game cannot be compared with the previous game.

Our Lakers had a rare tactical drill before the game. Not to mention the extent to which the entire team's tactical literacy was improved at once, but at least it can be said that many Lakers players finally understood Silver Fox Harris.

What exactly is going on with some of the tactics? Of course, as a professional footballer

Players actually know many tactics by heart, but the chemical reactions produced by different types of teammates will be different. Sometimes it is not enough to just rely on finding tacit understanding on the field. Special tactical drills are also needed.

, allowing players to think more clearly during the game.

As for the Timberwolves, the tactics they used today are completely different from the last time they played against us. Although it is unclear which tactics were better, there is no doubt that the Rockets are trying hard to prevent us from figuring it out.

Their real game routines and these tactical changes fully demonstrate that their players themselves have very high tactical literacy. The three core veterans have been in the league for many years and are familiar with the use of various tactics in various situations.

The big dream Olajuwon didn't show any displeasure after being dunked by Shaq. It seemed that all this was a normal thing. It was said that he was dunked by a monster like Shaq. For any inside player

It's not news to me. Even Mutombo, the big post who is taller than Shaq, had to be dunked by Shaq. This is actually quite normal for Da Meng, whose real height is only 2.08 meters.

.

In fact, Shaq can only find the confidence to score one or two goals against Dream in one game. Compared with other inner players, Dream Olajuwon is already very good at defending Shaq. Not that

Shaq's shooting percentage has dropped significantly, but he is very good at preventing Shaq from catching the ball. Shaq is often unable to attack immediately after receiving the ball. With the rapid appearance of subsequent double-teams,

, forcing Shaq to make a direct mistake or pass the ball to give up the offense. Therefore, even though Shaq attacks

The desire is very strong, but it is rare to find a good offensive opportunity like just now.

In the last few minutes of the third quarter, the Lakers' substitute players performed quite well and played some very beautiful combinations. However, the Timberwolves were actually unwilling to lag behind. Their substitute players soon took the field.

The momentum was restored, and the score was already close to 15 points behind, but at this time, their substitute players suddenly became more accurate from outside the three-point line.

When the Timberwolves opened a three-pointer, things became different. The Timberwolves actually had many outside opportunities before, but they failed to seize them. After all, three-pointers are the fastest way to score points. First, prevent the opponent from attacking, and then

If he chases and shoots another three-pointer, there will be a five-point or even six-point difference between inside and outside.

Although our Lakers bench players were still able to maintain a certain shooting percentage on the offensive end, they were still unable to shoot open three-pointers from the outside. Moreover, the Timberwolves bench players had an excellent awareness of protecting defensive rebounds and did not allow them to miss.

Our Lakers got a good second offensive opportunity.

Shaq can still grab some secondary offensive rebounds when he is on the court, but it is still a bit difficult for the current Lakers backup center to grab as many offensive rebounds in the paint as Shaq.

.

The Timberwolves took advantage of their good rebound protection and quickly launched several very powerful counterattacks. Many of these counterattacks either directly hit the inside and caused damage, or they looked for three-point shooting opportunities.

What I didn't expect was that the Timberwolves scored 11 consecutive points in the last two or three minutes of the third quarter, including three three-pointers and two free throws. Our Lakers scored 6 points in these three minutes.

This reduced the Celtics' deficit from 13 points to only 7 points.

In this way, after the third quarter, our Lakers' lead was only single digits, and it seemed that the Timberwolves were still unwilling to give up their efforts.

Maybe the head coach of the Timberwolves has the idea of ​​​​letting go, but these players, especially the substitutes, are quite tenacious and have no intention of giving up the opportunity to fight our Lakers to the end.

It can be said that we will be able to play a total of two games with the Celtics this season, one is at home and the other is away. For the fans here, this is the only opportunity to play in this season.

My own home court witnessed the two giant teams fighting again.

No matter what the current situation of these two teams is, for fans, the showdown between these two teams has a sense of destiny, full of fans' feelings and memories, and is not just a simple battle between each other.

It's just a competition, but a kind of nostalgia for the glory of the past and expectations for a new future.

Fans of these two teams are undoubtedly lucky. Being able to become fans of such two great teams can give them great psychological satisfaction. Whether it is the Los Angeles Lakers or the Timberwolves, they each

The temperaments represented are different, but they all have one thing, that is, there is a domineering spirit of dominating the world over anyone else. Looking at the championship flags floating above the home courts of the two teams and the retired jersey numbers,

Witness the greatness of these two teams together.

After the third quarter, head coach Silver Fox Harris was a little annoyed because the score that had just been opened was now being chased back by the Celtics. However, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, he was definitely not able to bring the main team back.

When the players are replaced, the main players must rest for at least three minutes. Otherwise, it will be difficult to guarantee sufficient physical fitness and shooting percentage at the last moment due to back-to-back away games.

I sat on the sidelines and looked at the audience around me. I finally saw Jessica in the crowd. When I saw her, a big stone fell in my heart. It seemed like she was fine. She looked like this.

I feel relieved. Next, I will play this last quarter of the game well and bring Jessica a victory.

Although our Lakers substitute players failed to defend Grant Hill's offense after coming on the court, they still performed well on the offensive end. Byron Scott and Eddie Jones were also able to hit consecutive shots from beyond the three-point line.

, so that the two sides were evenly matched in the last few minutes of the first quarter.

The scores also increased alternately. During this period, the Pistons briefly took the lead, but then our Lakers took the lead again. By the end of the first quarter, the two sides were tied at 28-28.

Grant Hill played very well in the second half. He scored 11 points and 3 assists in the first quarter. Shaq on our Lakers team also scored 15 points in the first quarter.

Other players on both teams didn't score many points.

During the break in the first quarter, I briefly entered a state of meditation. Everything that happened in the first quarter flashed back in my mind. At this time, a sudden sound came from my mind.

There was a voice.

"I think you're not aggressive enough on the offensive end. You shouldn't let Shaq take so many shots. It's obvious that the opponent wants Shaq to fight alone, and you can't make the opponent's plan easy.

Succeeded."

This voice is still very familiar to me. It’s Kobe’s soul talking to me. Only in a state of meditation can I have a conversation with Kobe’s soul. At least that’s how it is now. I don’t know if it will happen in the future.

Change.
