Reverse Growth Superstar

On March 29, 2003, Kobe played against Jordan for the last time. The young No. 8 Bryant played 41 minutes, 15 of 29 shots, 9 of 13 three-pointers, 18 free throws and 16 free throws. He scored 55 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals, leading the Lakers to 108 at home. Beat the Wizards than 94.

In that game, Kobe seemed to try his best to prove his ability in front of Jordan for the last time. There is no doubt that Kobe succeeded.

And this 55-point game has become a classic in the minds of many people.

But a not-so-good fact is that in that game, Kobe and Jordan actually faced very few times. Most of the time, it was another Wizards guard Jerry Stackhouse who played against Kobe.

Among the few times that Jordan really played against Kobe, there was also a steal, a foul, and a three-point defense against Kobe. Overall, Jordan is not actually beaten by Kobe.

Jordan was very lucky at that time, at least there were people like Stackhouse beside him to help him resist Kobe's attack.

Now Kobe is not so lucky, because from the first round, he has to face Link directly!

Kobe didn't expect Link's counterattack just now so fast. That kind of ball is not only a manifestation of a player's outstanding level, but also a manifestation of a player's strong competitiveness.

After being scored by Kobe, Link didn't have the patience to play any positional battle slowly, but directly rushed to return Kobe's "punch." Link this can be regarded as showing his attitude, he will not be able to complete Kobe today.

Kobe was so defensively guarded by Link this round that the space to connect the ball couldn't flash out.

Kobe didn't know whether he became too slow or Link became too fast.

In desperation, Wesley Johnson had to hand the ball to Gasol. Pau Gasol confronted Randolph in the low post, the Spaniard said, he will work hard with Kobe today!

Gasol then pushed back hard, and it has been a long time since people have seen him playing so aggressively.

Last season, because of Howard, Gasol almost became a catcher and shooter. Moreover, he is a catcher who can only shoot mid-range. This strange style naturally made Gasol quite struggling.

This season, although Mike D'Antoni still did not find Gasol instructions. But at the very least, the Lakers' inside lanes are not so crowded, and Gasol has a lot of freedom to play.

After Gasol reached the basket, he turned around and hooked very skillfully. Randolph was at a disadvantage because of his height, and Gasol also chose a hook, which is an offensive method that is difficult to block. Randolph has no way to interfere.

The basketball is hollow into the net, and it goes in without any muddle. Gasol yelled and waved his fist, as if the "Golden Lion King" was back out of the world.

"Damn, can you defend your brother later, he is too tall!" Randolph picked up the basketball and spit out Gasol.

"Leave it to me, Zach." Little Gasol patted Randolph on the shoulder, and he could clearly feel that his brother was in an unusual state today.

Kobe excitedly high-five with Gasol, the attack just now seemed to give Kobe the feeling of two consecutive championships. Whenever he could not open the situation, Gasol would stand up in time to help himself. Then they were invincible and briefly ruled the alliance for two years.

Gasol did what he said, he said he would fight with Kobe, and he would never be lazy! Today, they don’t need to rule the league, just rule the Federal Express Arena.

It seems that the "script" of today's game was specially prepared for the Lakers. Kobe and Gasol dreamed of returning to the top to give the Grizzlies, who are now number one in the league, a two-game losing streak. Let them see what a wealthy immortality is, what a perfect story!

But Link never follows the scripts given to him by others. Is there still few beautiful stories he spoils?

Link was still very excited, and Kobe felt that the kid seemed more excited than himself. This excitement is like the night in 2003 when he met Jordan...

Just as Kobe set his posture, Link raised his hand for the ball.

For the second round in a row, Link wanted to take the initiative to attack. Kobe found himself a little nervous, which he has not experienced for many years.

But in front of Link, who was very eager to attack, Kobe felt this kind of tension again.

As soon as Link got the ball, Marc Gasol's screen was in place. Jordan Hill had to change defense, and Kobe's ability to get rid of the screen is not as good as it was before.

Link broke through, and both Hill and Kobe chased Link. At the same time, Gasol also made up to the basket!

With the three of them encircled, it is not the first time Link has "enjoyed" such treatment this season.

Pau Gasol is not only on the offensive end, but also very **** the defensive end.

For him, such a professional attitude is very worthy of recognition. After all, since a long time ago, Gasol has been deeply involved in transfer rumors. As a meritorious player who accompanied Kobe to create the last two consecutive championships, Gasol is put on the shelves by the Lakers almost every year.

If ordinary players were treated like this, they would have started fishing. You don't want to see me, and I don't bother to work hard for you.

But Gasol is still doing his utmost for the Lakers under such circumstances, and one of the most important reasons is Kobe!

Gasol felt that he was not playing for the Lakers, but for Kobe.

Gasol raised his arms and stood under the basket without evasiveness. Even if he was knocked to the ground by Link, he could get an offensive foul!

Kobe thought that Link would stop the jumper, but Link did not slow down at all and rushed towards Gasol!

Gasol was ready to fall backward, but Link suddenly violently jumped high!

This feeling is simply too familiar to Gasol, because of this kind of **** encounter, Gasol has to encounter several times a season.

"I, Cao, ruthless..."

As soon as Gasol finished muttering in his heart, he felt a huge impact. The Spaniard forgot to fall back, but was knocked out of the bottom line embarrassedly. The next second, the basket made a loud noise, and Link hung the frame with both hands and poured the ball in!

With Paul Gasol, who is 2.13 meters tall, standing under the basket with his arms raised, Link is equivalent to directly ignoring the defense of the opponent's inside player and directly dunking!

"This is really an explosive scene! Link ignored Gasol's defense and dunks everybody! Paul Gasol, he is undoubtedly a great player, but he is also the most frequent in the collection of dunks. The background board that appears."

Seeing Link yelling at Gasol after he landed, Hubie Brown felt a little bit too tired to complain. Gasol is really a bit ridiculous, it seems that anyone who plays the Lakers has to buckle Gasol on the head to be considered worthy.

"Fuck, the Spanish bastard!" Bill Simmons also yelled in front of the TV. How could he let Link score a goal so easily?

If Simmons personally went up to play a round with Link, he probably wouldn't think Gasol was a softie.

"It's okay, Paul!" Kobe immediately asked about Gasol.

Gasol waved his hand in embarrassment. He just made a small hook, and in the end he encountered a buckle, and the guy Link was too vengeful!

But the facts once again proved that Link didn't want to be behind even one round today. As long as the Lakers score, Link will find a way to get it back.

Kobe started to realize that something was wrong, and Link is gaining momentum today...The score is estimated to be high!

In the next few rounds, the Lakers struggled with the Grizzlies' tough defense. Although every attack is not easy, but at any rate can continue the score.

What about the Grizzlies? Link started his solo performance.

After deducting Gasol, Link made an emergency stop on Kobe. A few minutes later, Link broke through the bottom line and made a layup.

Gasol had just breathed a breath when Link came again. This time, Link directly hit the basket, Gasolla did not hold, and finally gave Link a 2+1.

Bill Simmons became more nervous as he watched, his palms were sweaty. He finally managed to win the game because the Grizzlies lost to the Thunder, but he didn't want to be swollen by Link again.

However, the result of the first quarter was still desperate.

When Link was replaced in the tenth minute of the first quarter, he had already scored 11 points!

Kobe's performance in the first quarter today has been quite outstanding, scoring 8 points on 4 of 6 shots from Link! But Kobe didn't expect Link to be ruthless than himself!

People say that Black Mamba will be very angry today~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But Kobe feels that Link's anger has even overshadowed himself.

Look at Durant and Simmons, what kind of monster they forced out.

After Kobe was provoked by Jordan, he did not speak to his teammates for two consecutive weeks, so he waited for the next encounter with Jordan to complete his revenge.

But Link is different, he can't wait for the next meeting with Durant. Today, no matter who is in front of Link, it is unlucky.

This undifferentiated revenge made Kobe feel innocent.

In the end, the Grizzlies blasted 30 points in the first quarter and entered the break with a 7-point lead.

Gasol and Kobe looked at each other on the bench. An opponent they couldn't contain together? It really hasn't appeared before.

Kobe hopes that he can become or even surpass Jordan, but he doesn't want to be like Jordan, to be hit by a young boy with 50 points on his head...
