This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 166 The Lonely Hero Kobe (Subscribe)

Strangling Kobe to death is tantamount to killing the Lakers. Bobcats players now know very well that except for Kobe, the other players of the Lakers can't get on the stage, and they all count on Kobe eagerly.

In the first half, Kobe made 19 of 11 shots and scored 27 points. The shooting percentage was not bad, but everyone could see that the more he went to the back, the more Kobe's shots were biased. No one could stand up for Kobe in this game. No matter how good the physical fitness is, it will be inferior to the high-intensity defense.

Now Kobe is a lonely hero, which is also the price the Lakers management must bear for letting the sharks swim eastward.

Kobe, who blocked one side alone, also performed his personal offense to the extreme.

From last year to this year, although Kobe played the two seasons with the most peak statistics in his career, he could only make it to the playoffs. If Kobe was a little more relaxed and didn't work so hard, I'm afraid there would be no Lakers in the playoffs. something happened.

Last year's 81 points against the Raptors and 62 points in three quarters against the Mavericks not only showed Kobe's ability, but also proved how messed up his teammates were at the same time.

And this season, Bryant faced the same dilemma.

However, Kobe was also born for this kind of scene. He was competitive. Even if Kobe was placed in a bad team, he would use his ability to lead the team out of the quagmire.

In the third quarter, Kobe Bryant, who had recovered slightly, did not choose to confront the Bobcats head-on. After experiencing the most difficult moment in the first half, Luke Walton used a mid-range shot to lead the team to overtake the score at the beginning of the second half.

As for Zhou Lin, in the face of Kobe's defense, he didn't attack with all his strength at the beginning of the third quarter. Blazek made an empty basket and a layup, all of which missed, which made Bernie Bewkes Taft couldn't bear it anymore and replaced him directly.

Jack Voskull replaced Brezek's playing time. In the third quarter, the progress of the game was uneventful. Kobe did not show the terrifying scoring power again. Of course, Zhou Lin believed that Kobe was preparing for the next quarter. The final decisive battle in the fourth quarter is to accumulate strength.

In the third quarter, the scores of the two teams were relatively scattered. When Kobe was not obsessed with solving the problem alone, or believed that he alone could not solve the problem, he chose to temporarily delegate power. Smash Parker, the god of death, also This quarter sent 3 assists, and personally scored 4 points, and Luke Walton, who reached the fourth position, no longer needed to face Zhou Lin, but taught the young Okafor a lesson. The consecutive steals were successful, but the defensive counterattack effect was not good, otherwise the Lakers might be able to establish an advantage in the third quarter.

This was the only quarter in which Kobe did not score in double figures in the four quarters. He took five shots, made three hits, and scored 6 points.

The Bobcats still relied on Raymond Felton's three-pointer and Zhou Lin's second attack at the end of the first quarter, as well as Gerald Wallace's breakthrough layup, to win 26-25. The quarter continued to lead by one point, with a total score of 86-84 leading by 2 points and entering the fourth quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Kobe turned into a Mamba again and began to spit out letters.

Facing Gerald Wallace's defense, Kobe first made a two plus one in the middle distance of the opening game, helping the team lead by one point at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Zhou Lin, who only scored 7 points in the first three quarters, played more aggressively in the face of Kobe's defense. Finally, relying on his enthusiasm, he made a foul by Kobe and made two free throws.

The score is like a canine tooth alternation, generally rising.

Brendan Roy came on again early in the fourth quarter, and as Brandon Roy let Bernie Bickerstaff down again, he headed into the rookie wall and needed an adjustment , and Bernie Bickerstaff will never play Brandon Roy again in this likely winable game.

The two teams had a lot of hand-to-hand combat, and Kobe's elbow fell on Zhou Lin's shoulder and chest several times. Manu Ginobili and Mark Jaric, as well as Kyle Korver, ended up being suspended for several games by the league.

Of course, this can also be understood as Kobe is too eager to win the game, but he lacks effective helpers around him, so sometimes Kobe will appear impatient and irrational.

Zhou Lin was completely at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Kobe. Now Kobe weighs about the same as Zhou Lin. Most people think that Kobe's thin face always has a kind of stream of consciousness. Kobe is slender and thin, but this is also It's just the state when he entered and left the league. Kobe's biceps are definitely one of the best among the swingmen in the league, and Anthony, who is good at confrontation with strength, is not far behind.

Although Zhou Lin was about two inches taller than Kobe, Zhou Lin gave way gradually under Kobe's confrontation, making Zhou Lin feel that there was a beast living in his body.

However, Zhou Lin only needs to get rid of half of Kobe, and Gerald Wallace will help him deal with Kobe.

The physical confrontation with Kobe became more and more fierce, and after a confrontation, Zhou Lin also gave Kobe an elbow.

Of course, he is not Kobe, and without Kobe's status in the arena, the referee gave Zhou Lin a T without hesitation.

This is also Zhou Lin's first technical foul in his career.

Team boss Gerald Wallace didn't blame him for giving Kobe points after Zhou Lin fouled. Instead, he touched Zhou Lin's head and felt that Zhou Lin did a good job. There will be no hesitation, the most positive response.

Kobe did not recover from Zhou Lin's elbow, and missed all of the next two shots.

The Bobcats also used this to overtake the score, but Raymond Felton's two false attacks ruined the hard-won score overtake.

The game advanced to 4 minutes and 23 seconds left in the regular time.

In this section, Kobe made 9 of 3 shots and scored 9 points. His total score also came to 42 points.

Under Kobe's strict defense, Zhou Lin only shot 11 of 4 in the end, and he just scored 10 points so far.

The score also came to 92-92.

Zen master Jackson called a timeout, but during the timeout period, he did not arrange too complicated tactics, because the final tactics of the Lakers still centered on Kobe, and Kobe is now sitting on the sidelines, drinking energy drinks and panting heavily.

It is foreseeable that Kobe is destined to play another 12 minutes in this quarter, and the timeout called by Zen Master is more to give Kobe a rest time.

After a long timeout of more than 1 minute, Kobe rested until the referee on the sidelines came to shout, and then slowly stood up.

Kobe is really tired.

However, once he stepped on the court, his fatigue almost disappeared.

Zhou Lin sighed: This may be the reason why so many fans and even players worship Kobe. This is the so-called Mamba spirit.

After the game continued, it was the Bobcats who took the lead. Matt Carroll scored first. As Brandon Roy's substitute, the white guard Carroll's performance in this game was remarkable. .

In the next three rounds, Kwame Brown and Radmanovic, Zhou Lin, Kobe Bryant, and Vujacic missed all five shots.

比赛还剩下2分45秒的时间，山猫队仅仅以94-92领先2分。

And Zhou Lin finally ran out of position with the help of a few off-ball screens. With a three-pointer, he scored 13 points and established a 5-point lead for the team.

97-92.

And it was Kobe who stood up again. He first made a pull-up jumper on the offensive end, narrowing the point difference to only 3 points, and then blocked Raymond Felton with defense.

Looking back, Vujacic scored 2 points with an assist.

97-96, the scores of the two sides continued to bite.

Raymond Felton, who was blocked in the previous round, did not force the basket, but chose to do a pick-and-roll with Okafor, and Okafor successfully blasted the basket.

99-96，比赛时间还剩下1分11秒，山猫队领先3分。

Smush Parker drives past Raymond Felton for another point for the Lakers.

99-98.

In the next round, it was Okafor who made another strong attack inside, pulling the score to 101-98.

There are just 45 seconds left in the game.

Kobe Bryant missed.

With 23 seconds left in the clock, facing the Bobcats' offensive round, the Lakers failed to steal and could only be forced to foul and send Melvin Ely to the free throw line.

As long as Melvin Ely made a free throw, the Bobcats won the game, but Melvin Ely, who performed well in this game, missed both free throws in the end.

8 seconds.

The Lakers still retain the option of the last attack.

The Zen master Phil Jackson called a timeout and arranged tactics with a solemn face.

"The score is 101-98, the Lakers have a chance to tie the score, and everyone knows that the Lakers, it must be Kobe will make this last attack, it depends on how the Bobcats defend, defend it, the Bobcats Win, lose to overtime!"

Serving in the frontcourt, Luke Walton stood on the sideline of the serve.

There are at least two people on the Bobcats side chasing Kobe.

Catching the ball directly is simply not going to work.

As a support point, Kwame Brown still took advantage of the height to catch the ball. Kobe used several pick-and-rolls, and finally came to Kwame Brown's side staggeringly. Kobe's first dribble was still caught by Gerald Wallace gave a pat and almost lost the ball.

But on the eve of the lights, Kobe still found a chance to make a strong shot. It was a huge recede. Gerald Wallace and Zhou Lin's blocks almost covered the sky above Kobe.

But the ball bounced on the basket twice and fell into it.

"It's not over, it's far from over!"

Kobe clenched his fist and roared loudly!

"Kobe, hold...Kobe is really good!" Zhang Weiping didn't know how to brag, if it wasn't for the CCTV column, he might have shouted shit.

"The players on the Lynx team are a little frustrated. It can be said that the defense of the ball is in place, and it is almost on the verge of fouling, but the black mamba is still a black mamba after all. One blow is fatal." Su Qun After calming down, he said.

"Add time!"

This is not a lore, but an absolute tie, and the game will continue.

The first overtime started soon. Kobe, who had already scored 47 points, was full of fighting spirit, after all, he had played for almost 40 minutes, and he still felt that kind of tiredness.

In the beginning of the first overtime, Kobe first provided an assist for Maurice Evans, helping the team lead in overtime.

As for the Bobcats, Zhou Lin was still active, and he finally made a breakthrough layup in front of Kobe, raising his score to 15 points.

Kobe Bryant missed a shot, and he obviously felt weak in the future.

The Bobcats grabbed rebounds here, but the offensive efficiency was not high, and Carroll missed an open shot.

Kobe continued to strike.

Su Qun also said: "Kobe is really tired. It looks like the Bobcats are going to win the game."

But at this moment, Kwame Brown fell from the sky and made the dunk.

105-103.

However, Okafor fought back at the basket.

105-105.

Zhou Lin made another shot from the free throw line and his personal score reached 17 points.

107-105.

Kobe still didn't feel good, and he was 3 for 0 in overtime.

However, Kobe grabbed the rebound from his investment and gave it to nearby Luke Walton, who scored a rebound.

107-107, with only 29 seconds left, Zhou Lin broke through to the basket and scored to Okafor inside, who made a layup.

109-107.

In just 7 seconds, Kobe held the ball at the last moment and was still facing Gerald Wallace's defense. Kobe missed a jumper, but won the referee's whistle.

In the second overtime, Kobe seemed to have regained his fighting spirit and physical fitness.

Kobe scored 7 points in the team's second overtime, 5 of 3.

And Raymond. Felton and Zhou Lin opened fire one after another on the outside, and finally made Kobe's 50+ night's efforts in vain.

Raymond Felton scored 4 points for the Bobcats with a breakthrough and a long two-pointer, while Zhou Lin scored five consecutive points, a two-pointer, and a quasi-lore three-pointer at the last minute.

Let the Bobcats finally win at home by 2 points in double overtime.

And Carroll's 9 points and 1 block.

The Lakers lost the game, but Kobe didn't.

Even if the teammates around him are a little better, the Lakers can win this game in regular time.

"It's another 50+ night, the great Mr. Kobe Bryant." Zhou Lin expressed his admiration and approval while hugging Kobe.

"Well done, rookie, you are more powerful than I imagined."

After the game, Kobe was still very kind: "Also, see Staples, I won't lose again at that time."
