You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 834 You Graduated, Wish
Kobe Bryant still has some skill.

Wei Xia saw this in the second quarter.

What Kobe lacks most now is the control over his current body.Once he gets into shape, it's very difficult to guard against.

In the middle of the second quarter, Kobe made a jumper on the move;

At the same time, there is also a very ingenious frontal high-level basket and a back-basket sway to light up Wei Xia, keeping up with the step into the free throw line, not doing extra things, just standing on the spot and throwing.

Then, the 76ers gave enough respect to this top ten superstar in history who has been selected into the Pantheon.

Wei Xia was caught by the pick-and-roll, and Hayward and Cousins ​​double-teamed outside.Kobe remembered what he looked like in his prime, his ferocious face was like a black mamba spitting out a snake letter, and he forcibly pulled it up.

He has no explosive power, and his jumping height is incomparable with himself when he won the slam dunk contest that year. The defense of Hayward and Cousins ​​perfectly blocked every shot he made.

How should he score?

Naturally, it is impossible for him to shoot from a position where others can only watch from a distance and cannot be desecrated like in his peak period. He increased the arc of his shots and barely avoided the block of the 76ers' double giants.

Whether the goal is scored or not depends on his luck.

This kind of ball is illogical, inconsistent with tactics, and unreasonable.

"Shh!"

Today's young people are used to players making the right shot choices. Balls like Kobe just now are inefficient and selfish, and this is Kobe at his peak.

In the era in which he prevailed, he could throw a large number of unreasonable hero balls with an acceptable efficiency.

Like Kobe, there were three rounds tonight.

After three rounds, Kobe returned to his previous appearance.

That's what he needs to get used to.

Kobe in his later years, and Jordan in his later years, they can see the differences between the two players who are very similar in technical characteristics.

The old Jordan during the Wizards basically didn't rely on his body.

He played more games using rhythm, experience, skills and near-monster game awareness. In the first season of his comeback, he averaged 25+5+5 per game before he was injured. The Wizards playoffs are expected.It is entirely conceivable that if he hadn't retired in 1998 and hadn't had the window period of these few years, he would still have a high combat effectiveness at that age.And Kobe, it should have been the same.But he experienced a serious injury and lived the life of a 40-year-old Jordan ahead of schedule.

It stands to reason that from a purely technical point of view, Kobe's era made his skills more complete than Jordan's (Jordan played without a three-point line before entering the NBA), but his situation is much more embarrassing than Jordan's.

This is because, when Kobe made his debut, in his peak period, in the years when he led the team to the championship, and when he started to decline, he was a person who liked to push himself to the extreme to find the extreme difficulty.

Under the guidance of the Mamba Mentality, Bryant became the most disdainful "good opportunity" player in basketball history.Before the serious injury, he was still playing with his body supporting him. The serious injury caused his body to drop from 80 to below 50 in an instant. He didn't feel his body gradually decline, and then he was forced to choose to transform and change the stage and process of playing.

That’s why he’s so awkward and uncomfortable now. He wants to find his old self without delaying young people. He wants to prove that he’s not old. He wants to keep up with the trend, so he learned single-action shooting from beyond the three-point line but can’t master it well. It also affects the feel of double-action shooting that has accompanied him for many years.

In the end, he is just a stubborn old man who refuses to accept his old age and believes that injuries will destroy him.

At halftime, the Lakers resisted, and the 76ers did not take a big lead.

58 is better than 51
With a gap of 7 points, the second half was fully played.

In the second half, Kobe grabbed the ball with one hand—fortunately, he was able to catch it, and Wei Xia was very pleased. Did this little claw grow back?

"Watch me blow you up!"

Bryant has always been Kobe's strong point to verbally beat Wei Xia.

After he finished speaking, Wei Xia neither agreed nor opposed, Parker miraculously ran to Wei Xia's side, and Kobe hit the ground pass.

Parker catches the ball and pulls up, making a steady catch and mid-range shot.

"Shh!"

53 is better than 58
"It seems that getting older will not only affect the muscles and bones, but also change the definition of defeating the opponent." Wei Xia laughed.

Since it wasn't Kobe who scored the goal, Wei Xia didn't have the slightest thought or idea to hit back head-on.

Following Kobe, seeing Cousins ​​overwhelmed in the interior, Bogut, a lowly stinking dog, was already powerless to stop the active No. [-] center's attack.

Cousins ​​scored easily.

Kobe was created by the whole team. D'Angelo Russell seemed to be a tool man who couldn't play a role at all. He just passed the ball to Kobe and Parker.

Although Bogut still has huge room for improvement in terms of being a human being, his pick-and-roll skills are no longer needed, which can be regarded as a benchmark level.

The cover given to Kobe firmly stuck Wei Xia.

Kobe received the ball, faked and flew Faried, who was helping the defense, dribbled one step, collected the ball and shot.

Outside the three-point line is Curry's single-action shooting action, and inside the three-point line is the double-action shooting he is accustomed to.

"Shh!"

Holding two shooting movements at the same time can easily cause confusion in muscle memory, and Kobe is destined to struggle in this confusion for some time to come.

One goal can be scored, but the next goal is hard to guarantee.

Wei Xia watched him score and decided to counterattack.

He ran to catch the ball, did not throw Kobe away, broke through to the right with a slow start speed, stopped suddenly, and reclined after receiving the ball.

Anyone familiar with Kobe will recognize this action.

At his peak, Kobe used this trick to slaughter 29 other teams.

"Shh!"

"Today isn't the weekend, aren't you full?" Wei Xia asked with a provocative smile.

"Wait!"

Kobe shouted angrily.

"Pull away!" The young man in the Lakers team was no longer Kobe, but he didn't expect him to come up suddenly.

No one dared to say no, just pull it away.

On the right waist, Kobe took the ball and headed back forcefully. This step was not enough. He cleverly used the elbow that was specially used to attack opponents when he was young as a cover, which made Wei Xia make a wrong judgment.

This is skill and experience.

There are only a few low-level skills, why will someone always be fooled?

Because these skills are based on the name of the person.

If the person who made these moves was called James, then Wei Xia would know with his eyes closed that he was arching and arching. In the end, he would either turn over and shoot or find a shooter to pass. There was no third option.Now the person who uses these tricks is Kobe, so Wei Xia has to think about it.

His body is not as good as before, but he obviously still dares to force one out of nowhere.

Wei Xia ate his right shoulder fake, and Kobe turned back with his left foot and stepped into the paint in an instant. What a beautiful move, it is almost extinct now.

"Boom!"

"Have you learned it?" Kobe asked.

Wei Xia not only learned it, he even learned Kobe's bad habit of forcing his opponent no matter what position or posture he feels.

Kobe turned around with his right shoulder and stepped in to wipe the basket, while Wei Xia turned with his left shoulder and straightened up for a jumper.

Same action, different ending means.

"Shh!"

The contrast brought about by Wei Xia and Kobe's offense repeatedly reminded the fans that Kobe chose to turn around and wipe the basket because he did not have the explosive power to turn over and pull up, and if he did that again, he would eat Wei Xia's block.

And Wei Xia has nothing to fear. At the age of 31, his body is still at the end of his peak.

Kobe tried to break through the rhythm with small steps, Wei Xia took his pulse.

He couldn't move, dragged to the back and couldn't do anything, so he made a forced shot.

"boom!"

"I can't learn this trick." Wei Xia laughed.

Cousins ​​grabs the defensive rebound and throws it over.

Wei Xia held the ball steadily and slowly crossed the half court. Kobe was guarding the three-point line at the top of the arc. He had a hunch that Wei Xia would not pass the ball.

Since Weixia went to the 76ers, every time they played against the Lakers, before Kobe was seriously injured, they would always fight each other.

Before 2011, Kobe was still able to open 2011-[-] when he was physically strong. After [-], Wei Xia raised a level, and now the two are even more different.

Wei Xia has never neglected or underestimated Kobe's decline because of his own strength improvement.

He will always fight Kobe as a rival.

Before Kobe's serious injury, the scene was not so ugly, but now, if Wei Xia doesn't hold back, Kobe will definitely be blown up by him.

Wei Xia decided to do it, which is what Kobe wanted.

Facing a player of this level, what could be more disrespectful than showing mercy to his subordinates?
Wei Xia brought the ball in front of Kobe, pulling the ball with his right hand, as if he was about to break through or receive the ball. Suddenly, his body jumped up, received the ball with one hand, and joined hands together.

You can still see Kobe at his peak in this series of actions.

"Shh!"

Wei Xia shattered Kobe's defense with a peak Kobe-style pull-back three-pointer.

The basketball was rolling, and Wei Xia asked gently: "Is there anything else you can teach me?"

Kobe's stern face suddenly relaxed, "You graduated, Wish."

"I think you can still play for a few more years." Wei Xia seemed worried about what would happen. "No matter how bad you play, don't make a decision so early. You just haven't fully recovered. The current game is not as confrontational as it was back then. It is very suitable for an old man like you."

"If you don't plan to press me all the way, don't say some inexplicable nonsense here!" Kobe turned his eyes that Wei Xia often showed him back then, and complained out of anger.

As soon as the duel between the two had some atmosphere, Wei Xia messed up. Why is he so annoying?
