I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 117 The Youngest Mr. 3 Points
"Boss, how do we play next? Are you going to continue taking your time to find opportunities for your teammates?" After the start of the second quarter, the teams of both teams sent substitute lineups according to the usual practice. As the scores increased alternately, Chu Xiao asked Kobe for his plan.

"No, I'm going to take over the game in the second quarter." Kobe looked up and took a sip of his drink and said, "Look at you guys playing like pussies in the first quarter. You shot softly and missed so many chances."

"Hey, you guys are indeed a little tired, after all, you have traveled to three away games in a row." Chu Xiao said with some embarrassment.

"Three away games won't last? What about the routine six consecutive away games at the beginning of February every year?" Seeing that Chu Xiao didn't know how to answer, Kobe continued on his own. , but the tone became very soft, "playing is always tiring, it's normal, if you can stimulate your potential when you are most tired, then you will suddenly have strength again. Just imagine, if everyone If you are exhausted, if you still have more strength, won't it be easier to score points?"

"Yes." Chu Xiao nodded.

Kobe continued, "So in every game, the two teams play back and forth in the first three quarters, and everyone is alive and well. Only in the last quarter can we see who is a superstar and who is an ordinary player. At this time , Ordinary players are generally exhausted and out of breath. Only those who can rejuvenate their energy will be called superstars. They seem to have sudden strength, stand up to take over the game, and decide the victory on the field by themselves. burden."

"Then what do we need to do?" Chu Xiao also wanted to know how those winners and losers did it, and Kobe was undoubtedly the best among them. He was really lucky that he could become teammates with him, because there was no problem. He can't answer, and no one is more qualified to answer than him.

"Excited!" Bryant said only two words.

These two words were also condensed by Kobe with a total score of nearly 16 points in his 3-year career. Its value can be described as immeasurable, but he passed it on to Chu Xiao seemingly lightly.

"How lucky I am!" Chu Xiao rejoiced and was grateful in his heart again, and then firmly printed these two words deep in his heart.

With 8 minutes left in the second quarter, the main players of the two teams returned to the field again. The Hornets adjusted their offensive strategy. Rivers passed the ball to the inside twin towers, and Lopez and Davis took turns to pivot the ball to the outside. , Aminu and Gordon hit three-pointers respectively and played a 6-0 offensive.

So Kobe began to show off.

After stealing Rivers on the defensive end, he rushed forward one-stop, completed a one-handed dunk, and ushered in a full house.

This is his 8th point of the game.

With 7 minutes left in the game, Chu Xiao gave the ball to Kobe at the top of the arc. Facing Gordon's defense, the latter forced his way into the penalty area with the ball, changed hands in the air to break Davis' block, and then another Remember the tomahawk-style one-handed dunk!
Individual 10 points.

As a 34-year-old veteran, perhaps he should cherish his body more, but Kobe said that he wanted Chu Xiao to learn how to stimulate his potential, so he was naturally excited.

The best way to get excited is to boost morale by dunking.

So in the game, Kobe's third dunk came to mind again.With 2 minutes and 03 seconds left before the end of the second quarter, Gordon of the Hornets missed a three-pointer. Chu Xiao grabbed the rebound. Seeing that Kobe was about to go down, he swung the ball with one arm. Kobe smiled and included pregnant, dunking both hands.

Individual 12 points.

The historic moment occurred at 1 minute and 16 seconds before the end of the second quarter. Chu Xiao got near the free throw line through a pick-and-roll. Facing the supplementary defense, Davis jumped high, raised his arm, the basketball left his hand, and sent a throw.

All of a sudden, the entire arena fell silent. Everyone held their breath and opened their eyes wide.I saw the basketball being thrown high into the air, and Davis, who arrived afterward, jumped up and jumped higher in the air, trying to intercept the ball, but saw the basketball continue to rise, when his fingertips When he was about to touch the basketball, the ball drew an arc, avoiding the obstacles in front as if it had eyes, and then continued to slide forward for a while. After exhaustion, it fell vertically and obediently got into the up the basket.

Hollow into the net.

Personal 14th point!
This is also the 30001st point of Kobe's career!
"Wow! Kobe, Kobe, Kobe..." The arena boiled up.

The Lakers players seemed to have returned to the Staples Center in a trance. Everyone stepped forward to high-five and hug Kobe, congratulating him on entering the 30000-point club and becoming the fifth player in league history to achieve 5 points.Before him, there were four players who scored 30000 points, namely Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (4 points), Karl Malone (3 points), Jordan (38387 points), and Chamberlain (36928 points).

而科比是最年轻的3万分先生，他是以34岁104天的年龄成为NBA历史上最年轻的3万分得主，此前最年轻的3万分球员是张伯伦，他在35岁179天的时候达到这一里程碑，而马龙、贾巴尔和乔丹依次是在36岁189天、36岁217天和38岁321天取得这一成就的。

The referee was very witty and blew the whistle to temporarily interrupt the game almost at the moment of the goal.

Stern, the president of the league and temporary owner of the Hornets, came down from the luxury box and stood on the sidelines at some point. After seeing Kobe score, he gave the game ball to the opponent and sent a brief congratulatory message, "Kobe's career It's been an incredible career. He has maintained a very high level of competition for such a long time. Kobe and the Lakers are a very important part of this league. I hope they can go well this season and can go beyond .And in my opinion, Kobe's achievements have been comparable to Jordan, he is a very talented player, has a strong sense of competition, just like Jordan, he is one of the greatest players."

Interestingly, Bryant, like Jordan, reached this milestone against the team he was originally drafted to.

The ESPN reporter who followed Stern took the opportunity to ask Stern, "Although Kobe is the youngest of the five players, he also played the most games. What do you think?"

This disturbing reporter was obviously aiming at the "revenge" for Stern's quarrel with Kobe's No. The least number of games is Chamberlain's 7 games, and Jordan is ranked second. Jordan used a total of 1180 games. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Malone both used more than 941 games. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar achieved it in the 960st game of his career. Malone achieved it in the 1000nd game of his career. On January 1101, 1152, in the game between the Jazz and the Timberwolves, Malone scored 2000 points and officially entered the club.”

To be honest, Stern hated this reporter to the core, but he knew that the game was being broadcast live across the United States, and countless pairs of eyes were staring at him, so he could only answer seriously with a smile, but the answer was very sincere, "When he entered the league, As a child, he played as a substitute for two full seasons. In such a fierce competition in the NBA, it is not easy for a person to be able to earn a little bit of value from the bench. If you want to transform directly from the bench to a superstar, even Looking at the entire history of the league, there are only three or four people who really perfectly meet the entire standard, and Kobe ruled an era!"

The old man left without looking back.

Chu Xiao watched the chunky old man walk back to the luxury private room step by step, with only reverence in his eyes.

"Hey hey..." The reporter wanted to take the opportunity to interview the player, but Artest hugged him out and put him back on the ground lightly, but his expression was fierce, "Don't affect our game!"

The reporter originally wanted to complain, but when he looked up and saw that it was Artest who was talking to him, he immediately shrank back in fright, not daring to say anything more.

"Domineering!" Chu Xiao couldn't help giving A-Tai a thumbs up.

"Hey." Artest changed into a silly smile.

After halftime, the Lakers trailed the Hornets by only 47 point 48-1.

After another battle in a different place, the situation on the field changed suddenly.It is estimated that it was influenced by Kobe's milestone creation, or his three dunks boosted morale.The Lakers players, including Chu Xiao, found a sense of excitement, and their fatigue was swept away.

I saw Chu Xiao holding the ball at the top of the arc, swinging his arms from side to side, passing Rivers' defense after continuous cross dribbles, and entered the penalty area with three lunges, facing Lopez's block, but behind. A step-back shot was made.

Immediately afterwards, he kept dribbling and playing with the Hornets' defense, and suddenly rushed into the inside line, pretending to play for Kobe but passed it to Artest who was ambushing in the bottom corner. , Passed the ball to Gasol... In just 5 minutes, the Lakers hit a 13-0 attack wave and overtook the score in one fell swoop.

The Hornets played more than 5 minutes before Vasquez scored. Gordon continued his excellent form in the first half, scoring 7 consecutive points from long-range shots and free throws, helping the team to bite the score.

But before the end of the third quarter, Chu Xiao also hit a three-pointer, Kobe made a mid-range shot, and Jamison, who came off the bench, hit a three-pointer at the buzzer. The Lakers continued to lead 77-64.

In the final quarter, the Lakers played more and more relaxed, and the substitute players were also quite competitive. Thackeray, who has been very involved in training recently, scored 7 points in a row with mid-range shots, dunks and putbacks. Morris hit a three-pointer.The Lakers' 15-8 attack wave extended the advantage to 20 points.

The Hornets relied on the offense of Anderson and Lopez to chase points, but Kobe, who reappeared, felt hot. He scored 5 points in a row with a mid-range shot and three-pointers, ruining the Hornets' thoughts.

In the end, the Lakers returned with a 103-87 away victory.

科比17投10中，贡献29分、6篮板和4助攻。楚晓7投5中，收获13分、10个助攻。

The other two protagonists in this rookie showdown, Davis made only 19 of 7 shots and scored 16 points and 9 rebounds. He won the points but lost the data, and even lost the record.Rivers made 5 of 2 shots, scored 5 points and 6 assists. He lost both points and data and record.

Fortunately, not many people paid attention to this, because everyone's attention was on Kobe after the game, and even the press conference after the game became his exclusive interview. Chu Xiao voluntarily asked not to participate, leaving all the limelight For the boss alone, he expressed his gratitude via Twitter, "Congratulations to the best scorer and one of the greatest players on the planet. He is my teammate, master and friend Kobe! He has been among the 3 Great club! This is a huge achievement! #黑智马巴##湖人世界##最大大#」

Lakers star Shaquille O'Neal also congratulated Kobe Bryant via Twitter, "Congratulations to the great Kobe Bryant. His career total score has successfully broken through 30000 points, and his scoring legend continues."

There are also many people who have tweeted as early as the game, paying tribute to the youngest Mr. 3 points.

Kobe also accepted an interview after the game, saying it was an honor to reach this milestone. "I'm flattered to be in the 3-point club. I've been lucky to have been healthy for so long and lucky to have been traded to an incredible team like the Lakers."

In this game, in addition to Kobe, Artest, who has always been low-key, also reached a milestone. He became the sixth player in history to score 6 points, rebound 12000, three-pointers 4000 and steals 1000.

However, there is no time for everyone to celebrate and rest, and they need to rush to Oklahoma City, the last stop of the 4 consecutive away games, where there is a real strong player waiting for him, ready to end the Lakers' winning streak, it is Thunder.
