I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 21
At 9 o'clock in the morning, other teammates drove to the training hall one after another in luxury cars. When they opened the door, they saw Kobe sitting on the ground sweating profusely. In the game against the Spurs, because there will be two days of rest later, everyone is very excited.

After Zen Master appeared with the coaching staff and holding a tactical board, he announced Nash's injury and tonight's starting list. Nash will miss 32 games due to injury, which is very regrettable.So the starting lineup for this game will be Chu Xiao, Kobe Bryant, Artest, Gasol and Warcraft Howard.

It is reasonable and expected.

There was no objection from the crowd.

At 7:30 in the evening, the game started on time at the Staples Center, the home of the Lakers.

Because Chu Xiao revealed the starting list to Han Shunli before the game, Han Shunli immediately reported the news that Chinese player Chu Xiao was about to start, and actively promoted him through the Internet, so that this game in a big entertainment market like Los Angeles Both the game and rookie Chu Xiao have received widespread attention.

Before the game started, it became the focus of the major media, and many reporters flocked to it. Naturally, there were also those big-name stars beside the game, Jack Nicholson, Taylor Swift, Beckham, Tom Crewe Adams, the Kardashian family, etc., and even the big Chinese stars traveled thousands of miles to watch the game, including Zhou Jielun, Zhao Wei's family, etc., as well as Li Lianjie and Li Bingbing in the United States.

截至目前，楚晓替补登场两次，场均12分钟，可以获得7分、3.5个篮板、8.5个助攻、1.5个抢断以及1.5个失误。

How will he perform in this first start?

The Spurs this season have won the best record in the league for two consecutive seasons, but failed to get out of the Western Conference in the playoffs.This situation is the same as before the start of the 2011-2012 season. Because the playoffs failed to meet schedule and the GDP of the Spurs was one year older, many people looked down on the performance of the Spurs in the new season. Everyone's face, starting with 5 wins and 1 loss, is the first in the Western Conference.

The reason is that the Spurs changed the lineup. Leonard and Green were mentioned in the starting lineup. This season, their starting lineup became: Parker, Green, Leonard, Duncan, Diaw.

Before the two sides jumped the ball, Kobe went to the Spurs' bench first, hugged Tracy McGrady, and the two hugged and greeted each other.The two have known each other since they were still in high school and have always competed with each other to improve each other.This season, McGrady, who has entered the twilight of his career, announced that he will join the Spurs with a basic salary, hoping to win a championship ring and retire, so he spends most of his time on the bench.

The jump ball between the two sides is still the Lakers' right to the ball. There is no way, Warcraft jumps too high.

Amidst the cheers of "let's go lakers", Chu Xiao came to the frontcourt with the ball and handed it to Kobe who was beyond the three-point line, while he ran to the basket with the French sports car Parker, surrounded by the monster After a circle with Duncan, he returned to the original spot, just in time to catch the ball passed back by Kobe. He made a false throw and passed the ball to the free throw line. Kobe appeared there like a ghost, and he caught the ball and made a shot.

Looking back, the Spurs veteran Duncan received a pass from Parker and hit the board, 2-2.

After the start, Parker was led around the basket by Chu Xiao. He felt that he was being walked around like a fool, so after the Lakers served the ball, he even forced Chu Xiao in the backcourt. Teach this rookie a lesson.

Although Chu Xiao was a little surprised, after calming down a little, he used the strength of his elbow to push Parker away, and then left him behind with a cross-step breakthrough with the ball, and then rushed to the basket at full speed.

Dior of the Spurs had to go to the free throw line to defend. Chu Xiao faced him and made a three-step layup. When he took the second step and took off, he took off against Dior, but the ball in his hand bypassed Dior. His body gave the unguarded Warcraft behind him, who dunked with both hands and added two points.

Parker was so angry that Popovich stamped his feet on the sidelines and reprimanded him.

Later, in another transition between offense and defense, Artest also followed Chu Xiao's pass from outside the three-point line and made a chasing three-pointer.

In these few attacks, the Lakers scored 2 points in a row within 7 minutes. It looked very smooth. Chu Xiao played calmly and calmly. Whether it was supporting the pass or playing fast breaks, I couldn't believe that he had just joined the NBA. A player who has only played two games.

Afterwards, the Spurs immediately made adjustments, using Duncan as the axis to respond, the striker hit the Lakers basket, and made a decisive three-pointer from the outside. Before the end of the first quarter, the score was 18-20.

After the start of the second quarter, Zen Master replaced Gasol and Artest with Jamison and Meeks. He saw that the GDP of the Spurs was older than the Lakers, so he decisively played a fast break. Supporting the high position, the other four players all have the ability to shoot three-pointers from long distances. It is very easy to open up space, whether it is a jumper after a screen, a breakthrough after a pick-and-roll tactic, an emergency stop jumper, or Chu Xiao's breakthrough to score the ball. The vacancy in the bottom corner is a very natural tactic.

This adjustment once again had a miraculous effect. After halftime, the Lakers took a lead of nearly 10 points. Chu Xiao also hit two three-pointers during this period. Before halftime was over, he gained 6 points and 2 rebounds. And 9 assists, even Magic Johnson, who was watching the game from the sidelines, couldn't help but applaud his several wonderful passes.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. 2 minutes and 21 seconds before the end of the halftime, Warcraft Howard asked the referee for a short timeout, and then indicated to the coaching staff that there was something wrong with his shoulder—it was his right shoulder that had been plagued by injuries. .During an earlier rebound, he collided with Diaw, causing an old injury.

After being diagnosed by the team doctor, Warcraft could not play again, so the Zen master had to send Jordan Hill.

The Spurs took the opportunity to hit the inside and chased the score to 48-51 at the end of the half, narrowing the point difference to 3 points.

After returning from halftime, World of Warcraft no longer appeared due to injury, and the game entered Kobe's time ahead of schedule.

He stuck in the body position on the left waist and suppressed Green who was defending him.After Chu Xiao passed the ball, Kobe jumped to catch the ball. After a fake shot, he jumped up forcibly, adjusted his position in the air and made a mid-range shot.

Back when the Lakers were attacking again, Kobe caught the ball with his back and moved his right foot back a little, turned around with his right foot a little further, and made another mid-range shot.In just 3 seconds, three to four feints were done in one go, which made Chu Xiao enjoy watching.

The Spurs had nothing to do with Kobe, so they guarded against other players and allowed Kobe to shoot, waiting for him to exhaust himself.After the third quarter, the Spurs also trailed by 72 points 78-6.

In this quarter, Chu Xiao mostly passed the ball for Kobe, so he only scored 2 points and 1 rebound, but had 5 assists.And Kobe scored 18 points in a single quarter, which is still the familiar rhythm of breaking out when playing against the Spurs.
