Reborn My Name Is Kobe

After Shaq came off the court, the Lakers also replaced a backup center. The personal strength of the Lakers' backup center was a bit different from Shaq's. In fact, it was not only his personal ability that was not good, but also his mental quality. Maybe it was

Because of his relatively limited playing time, it is difficult to get into the game quickly once he comes on the field. He is like a different player throughout the game, unable to keep up with the rhythm of other people's games.

At this time, I was still watching the other players of the Lakers on the bench. Although I also wanted to play earlier, it seemed that Silver Fox Harris had no intention of letting me play quickly.

Maybe it's because he wants to let the Lakers starters who have performed poorly before regain some confidence in the weaker Spurs team.

I can't do anything about this. After all, they are the starting players of the Lakers now. In fact, they do still have players of certain strength, but many times they cannot fully display them in the Lakers' existing team system.

.

At least our Lakers team is quite good in terms of beating food, because many players have strong individual singles ability, so it is easier to perform well when encountering a team that is not very defensive overall.

Well, it's just that when they encounter players with good defensive discipline or strong personal defensive abilities, they can't perform so easily.

Therefore, although the few quasi-All-Star players on our Lakers team have good personal abilities, they do not have absolute singles strength and can make all the difference when facing the real top defense in the league.

Shaq may indeed have a very strong personal dominance ability in the interior, but he also has big flaws. On the one hand, the tactics initiated by his center are positional battles with a relatively slow pace of the game. In fact, several of the Lakers' perimeter forwards

Servers are not particularly good at positional games. Their style is more focused on running and gunning or spacing.

Therefore, in many cases, the existence of Shaq's strong point often does not bring good opportunities for outside players, because these outside players basically need the ball in their hands like Van Exel and Eddie Jones.

hand, and Shaq's timing of passing the ball is not good, so it is difficult to simply use Shaq to attract double teams and obtain scoring opportunities for outside players. Even if the outside players get good open shooting opportunities, their shooting percentage

But there is no way to guarantee that it will cause enough damage to the opposing team.

Of course, I am actually a shooting guard who needs to hold the ball in my hand to attack, but the difference between me and Eddie Jones and Van Exel is that I have stronger personal singles ability than them, and many times my opponent needs

You have to double-team me, so relatively speaking, when I'm with Shaq, I put a lot more pressure on the opponent's defense.

In fact, Eddie Jones and Van Exel certainly have certain singles ability, but their singles ability is not enough for the opponent to use double teams to deal with it, so the threat they pose to the opponent's defense will be small.

A lot.

I spent the rest of the first quarter on the bench, which meant that all the Lakers' starters except Shaq played the entire first quarter. When the first quarter ended

After that, the Lakers led the Spurs by 7 points 25 to 18. In fact, the Spurs' substitute players came up late in the first quarter and launched a fierce counterattack. However, they faced the Lakers' head coach Harry Silver Fox who counterattacked.

Steve almost didn't react at all. Maybe he felt that such a counterattack by the Spurs would not pose any direct threat. No matter how he played, he was unlikely to lose the game.

When the second quarter came up, Shaq and I got the chance to play at the same time. Maybe head coach Silver Fox Harris arranged this so that Shaq and I could have the opportunity to further develop the tacit understanding of the game. In fact, in recent days,

At critical moments in a game, Shaq and I are often put on the court at the same time. This may also show that this head coach still understands football at some point and knows what kind of people to trust at critical moments. Although I

I am still a substitute player in name only, but I believe that as long as I can continue to perform as I am now, it will be hard to say what will happen before the trade deadline this season.

After the start of the second quarter, the Spurs' bench players still maintained a strong fighting spirit. It seemed that they had more desire to win than the Spurs' starters. Maybe they also felt that they were unlikely to win, so they didn't

If you let go of your mental baggage and play, you are likely to fully utilize your own strength. After all, players who can enter the NBA rotation lineup have certain abilities. Do not underestimate any player at any time. They may be in the game at any time.

Extraordinary performance occurred.

First of all, in terms of defensive enthusiasm, these Spurs substitute players have shown a very tenacious side. Although they are constantly being scored by me and Shaq, their defensive formation has never been messed up and they cannot guard me and Shaq.

It can be said that their personal athletic talent and ability are indeed lacking, but their defensive enthusiasm and defensive will are still worthy of recognition. At least as an opponent, their performance is worthy of respect.

However, when Shaq started to show his strength, he really had the momentum to block the gods and kill the Buddhas. He simply ignored the hard defensive efforts of the Spurs players and just seemed to want to defeat the opponent.

Faced with Shaq's forced take-off dunk against the defense of several people, the Spurs players did not show the slightest anger or sadness. Instead, they always released the ball immediately, looking for Shaq who was busy.

In fact, there were several fast break opportunities when Shaq was busy interacting with the Lakers fans on the sidelines, leading to the Spurs playing more and less and successfully seizing the opportunity to counterattack the fast break.

.

Of course, Shaq doesn't care about the Lakers losing points at all, because he can always easily get into the Spurs' inside for dunks. It seems that as long as Shaq wants to get in, the Spurs' inside will be like his back.

The garden is average.

However, the referee's penalty scale is also quite wide. Maybe he thinks this is a game with a very large difference in strength. Therefore, most of the Spurs' fouls against Shaq are not allowed to receive free throws, and Shaq does not

He doesn't care, because the Spurs can't stop his offense for his foul, and free throws are a nightmare for Shaq. He doesn't care at all if the referee doesn't call the Spurs a foul.

If the referee really wants to strictly follow the standards for calling fouls, then the Spurs will soon have several fouls inside, and the game will become a free throw contest.

Precisely because there were relatively few fouls and free throws, the time of the game passed very quickly. The second quarter soon entered within six minutes, and because neither coach took the initiative to call a timeout, the game directly entered the official timeout time.

inside.

I fell on the bench all of a sudden. The offensive and defensive rhythm of both sides in the past few minutes was really fast. Whether it was the Spurs or our Lakers, they started almost as soon as the opponent finished their attack. Our offense, for the Spurs players, more offensive rounds means that their substitute players will get more shooting opportunities, thus being able to improve their statistics. This means that for their marginal players, Greater chance of getting a bigger contract.

For Shaq and I, we also prefer this kind of fast offensive and defensive rhythm. Although Shaq usually focuses on positional warfare, once Shaq gets emotional about playing, it doesn't matter whether it is positional warfare or fast. The pace is running and gunning, and he can actually keep up with the defender's speed and rhythm if he wants to.

At least Shaq, who didn't play much in the first quarter, still had enough physical fitness at this time, which made him very willing to participate in the fast break. I had two fast break alley-oop balls from Shaq. , when he rushed directly towards the Spurs' penalty area during the fast break, I didn't even need to aim, I just threw it directly towards the approximate position near the Spurs basket, and Shaq could do it himself. Determine the take-off position based on the speed and route of the ball.

In fact, the success rate of the alley-oop between me and Shaq was really high, at least higher than Shaq's overall shooting rate. When Shaq flew through the Spurs' airspace like a flying castle, , the vast majority of the Spurs players could only watch stupidly, unable to even muster up the courage to resist.

After the official timeout ended, the players on the field still did not rotate. Judging from the look of Silver Fox Harris, he planned to let Shaq and I finish the second quarter with substitute players. Of course, I had no objection to this.

Sometimes the desire to attack becomes stronger and stronger, especially when you enter the state during the game. At this time, Shaq seems a little unable to hold back. He will go crazy for almost every attack. Ball, of course I can't give all the balls to this damn fat guy. I also need to take shots to score. This guy has the ability to play well when facing strong opponents. Facing the Spurs, there are almost no inside players. What kind of skill does a defensive team have?

Seeing that I didn't want to pass the ball, Shaq actually started to talk trash to me. I had no choice but to shake my head, but Shaq was really annoyed by what he said to me, so I told him directly that if he wanted to If you want the ball, go grab the offensive rebound. Anyway, I can't hit every shot.

As a result, Shaq really listened. When I missed a single shot, this guy would go crazy to attack the offensive rebounds. When he easily blocked the Spurs players, Behind him, and after getting the offensive rebound, he hit a powerful two-handed dunk, directly pulling the basket down a long way, and the entire basket shook crazily under his huge strength and weight.

Then this guy didn't forget to give me a look of contempt. Faced with Shaq's provocation, I felt helpless and ran back as if I hadn't seen his performance at all.

Of course, Shaq has a very good mentality, and he doesn’t like to hold grudges. Although sometimes Shaq and I have some conflicts, big or small, basically we don’t take the conflicts on and off the field into account. Put it all together, the problems on the field will be solved on the field, and the problems off the field will be solved off the field.

When it comes time for Shaq and I to work together, we can quickly put aside our past differences and then each play to our respective strengths and roles.

In the second half of the second quarter, the Spurs still replaced their main players, but at this time our Lakers were already leading the Spurs by more than 15 points, and the Lakers' head coach Silver Fox Harris was still there.

In the last two minutes of the second quarter, the Lakers

The other starting players of the team came on the field.

However, the Spurs' starting players showed a different mental state from the first quarter immediately after coming on the field. It may be because if they don't work harder, the point difference will be widened, and then their main players will not be available.

Why is it necessary to play again?

Especially the core player of the Spurs, Dominic Wilkins. Although he is already old and at the end of his peak, after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and he still has the last bit of energy left. As he grows

After continuously breaking through and scoring inside, the Spurs actually went on an 8-0 spurt in the last two minutes.

During this period of time, Shaq was also replaced. The Lakers lacked a strong interior frame protector. Wilkins used his athletic ability and rich game experience to continuously break through the interior and score two goals.

Two plus one, another lucky shot was made while being double-teamed by the Lakers players. However, whether it was a lucky shot or not, the Lakers were only seven points ahead of the Spurs at this time.

During halftime, the atmosphere in the Lakers locker room was quite harmonious. I seemed to hear Shaq discussing where to go to play in the evening. Sure enough, Shaq came over excitedly and asked me if I was interested in playing tonight.

When we went to a nightclub, I rejected him decisively without even thinking about it.

"I'm sorry, I just found a girlfriend recently and I don't have any extra time in the evening."

"I know your new girlfriend, she's that Jessica. You don't know that she likes to go to nightclubs. Didn't she stop going to nightclubs after meeting you? By the way, didn't you guys go to me last time?

Is it the nightclub mentioned in the note? Is my rap level top-notch?"

"Yes, Jessica does like clubbing, but neither she nor I have time recently. We need some alone time for two of us. Of course, I admit that your rock music and stage performance are quite good, but can you

I can’t help but go clubbing every time we have back-to-backs, and we also bring so many of our Lakers teammates with me.”

"OK, I know it's a bit excessive to go to nightclubs back to back, but last time it wasn't an accident. You and Jessica couldn't come, so forget it. But honestly speaking, how much do you know about Jessica? You did it so quickly?

Let’s confirm our relationship with her.”

"Yeah, what do you mean?"

I looked at Shaq with confusion, but this guy had a silly smile on his face. The more I looked at him, the more I felt that Shaq meant what he said.

But at this time, the intermission time came, and I could only continue the second half of the game with doubts. After the game was over, I had to go to Shaq and ask for clarification.

After the second half started, I turned around and saw Jessica waving to me a few rows behind the Lakers bench. I waved back to her, wondering if Jessica had any secrets she was hiding from me.

?

Then I let my attention return to the game. After the second half started, the game between the two sides started to look good. In fact, it would be better for the Spurs to play more seriously.

If the Spurs also look listless, then our Lakers team will also be very boring to play. After all, no one wants to face an opponent who believes in losing. That will make their competitive state decline a lot, and even more so.

Disrespectful to the tens of thousands of spectators who paid money to watch the game.

The Spurs' starters continued their excellent mental state in the last two minutes of the second quarter. Under the leadership of their core player Dominique Wilkins, they continued to attack the Lakers' inside line. However, the Lakers' inside line at this time was, after all,

With the addition of Shaq, a terrifying Buddha, Wilkins can no longer easily get into the paint and score.

In fact, Shaq was very cunning. He even used a fishing method to deliberately let Wilkins into the paint. When Wilkins wanted to complete the layup, Shaq rushed directly from the side and hit him hard.

He pushed the ball in Wilkins' hand onto the backboard.

Wilkins' center of gravity was affected by Shaq, and he flew far away, falling onto the cameraman filming behind the basket. Shaq roared, and the entire Staples followed Shaq.

This big hit caused the crowd to boil over.

However, the referee suddenly blew the whistle at this time. Shaq looked at the referee in disbelief. Even Harris, the silver fox on the sidelines, rushed over and continued to express his confusion to the referee. Staples Ball

The fans on the sidelines of the stadium let out continuous boos.

However, the referee remained unmoved and insisted on calling Shaq's shooting foul, allowing Wilkins to go to the free throw line. Sitting on the sidelines, I clearly saw the entirety of the ball. To be honest, the ball didn't matter.

It is okay to not call the ball or call interference and fouls, but the referee did not call the foul nearly two seconds after Wilkins landed on the ground, which will inevitably make people find it difficult to accept.

Perhaps because of a guilty conscience, the referee did not whistle a technical foul against Silver Fox Harris despite his constant complaints.

After these two free throws were made, the score between the Lakers and Spurs returned to five points, and the game between the two sides officially entered a fierce state.
