Reborn as Kobe - Chapter 117
After the premiere of “The Matrix”, it caused a huge sensation. Charlize Theron was an overnight fame, and Kobe’s fame was further improved.
In any case, Kobe’s primary goal is the finals with Jordan.
Before the game started, the movie “The Matrix” was shown on the big screen at Staples Stadium, which was regarded as an advertisement for Kobe’s movie. As of now, less than a day after the release, the box office of “The Matrix” has exceeded 10 million US dollars, which can be regarded as a double-bump in the box office of word of mouth, and Kobe’s acting skills have also received unanimous praise.
That night, Staples can be said to be packed, and many well-known superstars also gathered here.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was sitting in the front row, stood up and hugged Kobe. Recently, Schwarzenegger is planning to run for governor of California. Kobe owns Disney, the media empire. He hopes to get the popular star of Kobe. stand by.
When the players from both sides played, the Lakers fans gave Jordan and the others a huge boo. After many years, the Lakers are back on the stage of the Finals again. Lakers fans hope that their team can defeat the Bulls and start the dynasty.
The game is broadcast live to the United States by ABC TV. The game has already been watched by 28 million people before it even started, which does not include overseas audiences.
The host trio sent by Huaxia also started the pre-match on the media stand.
Zhang Yangfang said: “We have introduced before that in the NBA, it is none other than Kobe Bryant who plays the most like Jordan. The shooting postures of the two are contrasted. If you don’t look at their faces, they almost overlap. Of course. In addition to Kobe like Jordan, we can also find the shadow of other stars in him, such as his dreamy dance steps under the basket. The passing sound feels like a magician. The breakthrough footsteps are elegant and changeable. Smiling assassin’s fingers The sharp dribble reappeared in his hands more than once, and at the same time, his iconic skills such as dry pull jumpers and stride changes are also commendable. It can be said that in terms of technology, Kobe has surpassed the **** of basketball, Michael Jordan. It is also the reason why Jordan no longer says that Kobe is his successor.”
Zhang Yangliang deserves to be a fan of Kobe’s past life. This tout has left the young Su skirt stunned. As far as China is concerned, in addition to singing and writing, Kobe is far inferior to Jordan in the basketball field.
Xu Jicheng gave a light cough and said: “This is Jordan’s attack on his sixth championship. Many people hope that this basketball **** can achieve the second three consecutive championships and a new dynasty. In terms of player strength. , The Bulls who own the superstars of Jordan, Pippen, Barkley and Rodman surpass the Lakers. If the Lakers want to win, it depends on the performance of Kobe and O’Neal.”
The corner of Su skirt’s mouth was pulled out, and he could understand that Zhang Yangliang and Xu Jicheng had been divided into two factions.
The warm-up was over, Nelson and the players once again emphasized the tactics, and the game began.
The starting players of both sides appeared, and the visiting Bulls started with five players: Jordan, Pippen, Barkley, Rodman, Ron Harper.
The Lakers started with five players: Kobe, O’Neal, Horry, Eddie Jones, and Van Exel.
O’Neal won the jump ball and the game began.
Van Exel held the ball to organize, and Kobe ran to the left corner.
Horry and Van Exel played the pick-and-roll in the middle and attracted Pippen and Harper. At this time, O’Neal ran out of the basket and helped Kobe block Jordan. Kobe received the pass forty-five degrees on the left.
Kobe made a quick shot before Jordan pounced, with perfect rhythm, and the basketball hollowed into the net. 0:3.
Phil Jackson in the audience suddenly felt intense anxiety, always feeling that something bad would happen.
All teams in the league know that Kobe’s open three-pointer is very accurate, but Kobe doesn’t make many shots, and even his teammates don’t know Kobe’s specific strength.
The magician said: “Good ball, it seems Kobe feels good today.”
Chick Hearn said: “This goal is the result of the tacit cooperation of the Lakers team. It seems that the Lakers are very well prepared.”
The Bulls attacked, and Harper dribbled the ball to Jordan immediately after half of the game. Jordan and Pippen made a block and split the ball to Barkley. Barkley smashed Horry back and scored an easy layup. 2:3.
The Lakers attacked, Kobe relied on off the ball to cover the running position, Pippen changed defense, Horry and Kobe played the pick-and-roll, got rid of Pippen and received a pass from Van Exel.
Jordan wanted to help defend him quickly, but was blocked by Eddie Jones. Kobe caught the ball seventy degrees outside the right three-point line and made a hollow shot into the net again. 2:6.
Kobe’s three-point shooting skills combined Ray Allen and later Stephen Curry, plus the calculation correction of the super brain, the shot speed is fast and the shooting arc is high.
The Bulls attacked, Jordan transported to the front scene to shoot a three-pointer for Kobe Bryant, Kobe did not jump, just reached out to interfere.
Jordan’s shooting rhythm is also very good, returning a three-pointer. 5:6.
After the baptism of the first few playoff games, Jordan has begun to realize the importance of three-pointers, so he also practiced for some time before the game.
Kobe went to the left corner again. Van Exel tried to break through Harper’s defense with the ball, but Harper was experienced and blocked his breakthrough line in advance.
Kobe ran backwards from the left bottom corner, Horry blocked Jordan, but Pippen did not follow. Kobe ran to the left forty-five degrees and turned and just received a pass from Van Exel. He didn’t hesitate at all and pulled out a jumper.
In this position, Kobe can’t remember how many times he has practiced. He doesn’t think about it any more. He shoots based on muscle memory and the rhythm is perfect. Jordan slowed down a bit, and couldn’t reach the jump. The ball is hollow into the net, 5:9.
The Magician praised: “Before we always said that Kobe is the most perfect player in league history, the only thing missing is too few offenses and insufficient impact, but today he brings us a different side.”
Chick Hearn said: “Maybe it was in the finals when Kobe broke out with all his abilities. We can imagine that before the game, the Zen Master must have considered letting his players focus on O’Neal. After all, since entering the playoffs, O’Neal’s strength has played a key role. The role of sex.”
The Bulls attacked, Rodman pulled out of the penalty area and gave Jordan a pick-and-roll, Barkley attracted O’Neal to change defense, and Harper passed the ball to the center.
Bryant chased Jordan and was blocked by Pippen, Jordan rushed into the basket, shook Horry and picked the basketball into it. 7:9.
The Lakers’ offense is very simple, it is to help Kobe create open opportunities, let him shoot from the outside.
As long as Kobe receives the ball from the ball, he takes the shot very resolutely. Phil Jackson blew a whistle off the court, the Bulls began to change their defense against Kobe, and the wings began to double-team.
Kobe quickly changed his strategy and added breakthrough points, and O’Neal became an offensive strong point.
The Bulls are a little bit careless about this, Rodman can’t handle O’Neal alone in the basket, and Barkley took the initiative to double-team O’Neal. Kobe started passing the ball to Horry, who made a three-pointer and a mid-range shot.
If it wasn’t for Barkley that Horry hadn’t defended, the Lakers would have opened the score.
The two teams played for half a quarter, a bit of a stalemate. The Lakers were 16 to 13, temporarily leading the Bulls by three points.
Kobe started 4 of 6 shots ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and scored all three points, which made the Bulls defenders a headache.
Zhang rationally commented: “Kobe played very simple at the beginning, just shooting three-pointers, but Jordan just couldn’t prevent it. Players in our country should learn from Kobe and practice shooting well. Basketball wins or loses depends on who I think it’s very reasonable.”
Xu Jicheng said: “Kobe’s accidental outbreak hit the Bulls unpreparedly in the opening game, but three-pointers cannot guarantee efficiency after all. You still have to hit the basket more. The closer you are to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage. The Bulls’ defense strength is up. Yes, as the so-called defensive wins the championship, when the Bulls adapt to the Lakers’ style of play, I think it will be difficult for the Lakers.”
Both of them looked at Su skirt after speaking, which made the young Su skirt very embarrassed. He wanted to say, two big brothers, can it be difficult for the younger brother? I just want to watch the football quietly and be a beautiful man by the way.
“From the start point of view, both sides have opportunities. The Lakers can’t guard Barkley on the inside, and the Bulls have nothing to do with Kobe. It depends on how the coaches of the two teams adjust next.”
Zhang Yangliang and Xu Jicheng glanced at each other, curled their lips and continued to comment, Su skirt suddenly felt a strong smell of gunpowder.
