Kobe Bryant through time

Chapter 41 The Late Preseason
"Nothing happened after that. We just started the fight, and you passed out. How could you care about the bullfight, so I sent you to the hospital directly."

"what?"

Ling Yu never imagined that such a result would happen. He would go into a coma and disrupt Del's plan. He immediately felt extremely guilty.

"Oh! Bryant doesn't need to do this, it's none of your business." Seeing the change in Ling Yu's expression, he seemed guilty, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, Fisher hurriedly said: "Hey! Bryant, I think we should go eat."

The atmosphere is really bad, of course Ling Yu knew it, because he was the source, he looked at Fisher with a wry smile, nodded, and said, "Let's go! Let's go eat."

Don't think about it, the facts are a foregone conclusion, I should focus on the future...
Ling Yu took a deep breath, stood up, put Fisher on the shoulder and said, "Let's go!"

"Let's go! Let's go." Fisher jumped up, smiled, and walked out the door.

"Bryant, I have a suggestion."

"What advice?"

"I think you should have an operation on your stomach."

"what?"

"Then you won't be able to eat too much, haha!"

"I will go to your ancestors for eighteen generations. Haha.."

The rising sun, the dazzling golden edge, and the blooming golden lotus are full of beautiful temptations.The icy dew that sucked the essence of the earth overnight has not dissipated, shyly hiding in the embrace of flowers and plants. .

Today is the eighth day of the preseason and the fifth game for the Lakers.

Today is my first preseason game, and it is also a real honing game with the team. I must play hard.

Ling Yu gritted his teeth and clenched his fist.

The Lakers have played four games before, with O'Neal sitting inside, plus Van Exel and Eddie.With Jones' outside line, the Lakers won four consecutive victories.That would have been a joy, but, Del.Harris, on the other hand, had a dark, sullen face.

Ling Yu was also unhappy. He worked hard and thought he would be able to play in the third game, but it was Gary who didn't want to get it.Vitti's objection and his request to play were dismissed without any reason.

Ling Yu got angry, so he approached head coach Del and asked Ying to play.Dell looked at his determination, hesitated and discussed with Gary for a long time before agreeing to his fifth game.

I missed four games at once, which means that there are only two games left to run in with the team, which is obviously not enough.Ling Yu was very dissatisfied, but two games were better than none.So, he chose to accept and choose to wait.

wait.

"The game is about to start, brothers, come on! comeon!!!"

Del yelled, stretching out his right hand over his head, and the rest of the Lakers joined hands.

"come on!!"

After the radio crackled and chattered for a while, the game started.

Today the Lakers' opponent is the Timberwolves.

Timberwolves?
Ling Yu's mind turned rapidly, who are the Timberwolves in 96?

oh!Kevin.Garnett, and Marbury, I don't know the others.Although Garnett is only a second-level rookie, he is not a fuel-efficient lamp. It is said that he can play in five positions on the court, which is crazy.

Marbury's super change of direction, shaking Dayao so that he didn't know the north, south, east, and west at once, and he fell off his back, is also a tricky master.

This battle is really not easy to fight.

Ling Yu secretly felt ruthless in his heart, and was ready to fight a tough battle.

Game start.

Ling Yu didn't get the chance to start, so he had no idea about it.After several times of thinking, he understood that if a rookie wants to start in a team full of talents, he must first prove his strength, and now is the time to prove his strength.

The inside line of the Lakers is no different from the previous few games. O'Neal sits in the restricted area, and the outside line is a combination of Nick and Eddie.The Timberwolves sent the young and talented Garnett and Marbury, plus some other veterans.

The whistle sounded and the game started. After a lot of scrambling, the player was taken by Garnett.

"Hey! Stephen." Garnett threw the ball in the past and ran forward.Marbury took the ball, dribbled it slowly upfield, and Nick came up on defense.

"Let me teach you how to play." Van Exel looked at him with disdain, staring lazily, as if he didn't take Marbury seriously.

After all, Marbury is just a rookie, and he has to restrain his temper a lot when facing a veteran, but his heart is not as calm as his face.

Suddenly, Marbury used his signature super fast change of direction, Nick was tricked into losing his position, and then Marbury accelerated and threw the ball to Garnett.

"Kevin."

Naturally, Garnett would not waste an alley-oop opportunity, even though O'Neal was standing in front of him.

With a "boom", a dunk ended the attack.

Marbury's change of direction really wasn't a cover, I have to be careful when facing him.

Ling Yu's eyes fell on the 1.9-meter-tall player in a white uniform with a shiny head.

Marbury is also a strong opponent in Kobe's career.

The preseason is just a training game, the team's running-in game is not as important as the regular season, so the process of the game is relatively fast.

Unknowingly, half a quarter of the game has been played. Both sides come and go, and the score rises alternately. Although the Lakers have O'Neal's strong inside line, they don't take much advantage. The feel is also poor.

Del waved at Ling Yu and said, "Bryant, you go."

I'm getting impatient.

Ling Yu quickly stood up and ran to the court.

"Eddie." Del yelled at Eddie again.Jones yelled.

Is this asking me to play shooting guard?Just what I want.

Ling Yu was overjoyed for a while, and followed Eddie who came over.Jones clapped his hands.

"Bryant, come on!" Eddie said.Jones smiled.

Um!Ling Yu nodded knowingly.

Needless to say, after waiting for so long, I finally have the chance to play, I'm sorry for my body if I don't fight hard..
The game starts and the Timberwolves have the ball.I saw Marbury dribbling the ball carefully, facing Nick, and glancing around from time to time to observe the running positions of his teammates.

Looking at Van Exel again, the previous look of disdain has long since disappeared, and he is staring at Marbury nervously, not daring to leave his eyes for a moment.

Ling Yu secretly laughed, seeing that you still underestimate the rookie, how about it?It's a lot to say about Marbury.

Before Ling Yu finished laughing, Marbury, under the pick-and-roll of his teammates, dribbled the ball quickly, and then pulled the ball to the bottom of the basket. At this time, O'Neal had already pulled to the high position and was already unable to defend.

Too late, I can.

Ling Yu rushed to catch up from behind... .

Collecting the ball, stepping up, Marbury wants to end the offense with a dunk, simple, but also boost morale, Marbury certainly will not miss such an opportunity.

The stretched body has already risen into the air, the basket is close at hand, and now all that is left is to smash the ball into it.

what?
Marbury couldn't help being startled, because the ball in his hand was gone.

"Nice job, Bryant." Saying that, O'Neill made a face, and then laughed.

Some people are happy, but others are sad. An inevitable dunk turned into a mistake, and he also ate a hot pot. Naturally, Marbury felt uncomfortable. He glared at Ling Yu, a guy who ruined his performance.

"I'll pay it back."

Ling Yu spread his hands, shrugged, and said helplessly, "I'll wait."

Ling Yu made a helpless movement and ran towards the player he wanted to mark.

The game goes on, the offense goes on, the defense goes on.

The two teams came and went, but they played inextricably, and the point difference between each other did not widen, and the point difference stayed in single digits.Maybe it was the first time to play with the team, and I was a little uncomfortable. Ling Yu didn't show his characteristics at all, and he seemed invisible on the field.

Del looked at it, hesitated, and replaced Ling Yu with Holly.

Playing 8 minutes, 5 points, 1 rebound, 0 assists, 1 block, 3 steal, but [-] turnovers, Ling Yu was very depressed and walked off the court without saying a word.

How can you play so badly?
Ling Yu roared inwardly, dissatisfied with his performance.

Del saw the depression on Ling Yu's face, walked over, patted Ling Yu lightly, and said, "Don't worry, take your time. There is still a chance."

still have a chance?right!There is still a chance to prove that I must play the characteristics of the Black Mamba.

Ling Yu frowned, and became more determined in his heart.

Time flies, time flies, and the fourth quarter has been played for 2 minutes.

It only took a few minutes for the situation on the court to change. It was still inextricably tied, but now it was clear. There was a scoring frenzy late in the third quarter, and the Lakers had already led by 20 points.

Didn't you say there is a chance?Why don't you let me play?It's garbage time now, boss.

Ling Yu muttered for a while, looking at the court from time to time, and staring at Del from time to time, feeling extremely itchy in his heart and hands.

With the beauty of a gentleman, Del waved his hand at Ling Yu and shouted, "Go."

Although it is a bit late, there is still time. I must express myself well and play the aggressiveness of Mamba.

Gritting his teeth, Ling Yu rushed to the court.
