The rise of basketball legends

There is still some time before the start of the game, and the three live treasures will naturally not be idle in the commentary booth.

Barkley glanced at Kenny Smith: "Kobe or Chen, who can score more points?"

"Is this a new gamble?" Kenny Smith looked at his 'Chen Yan' underwear and said.

"Of course, have fun with the game." Barkley responded with a smile.

Reggie Miller on the side is full of melon faces, hehehe... There is a good show to watch.

"I bet on Chen, there is nothing to say, his 40+ in the last game conquered me." Kenny Smith said with his hands raised high.

"Hahaha, then I can only bet on Kobe." Although Barkley was reluctant on the surface, he was happy in his heart. Although Chen Yan was a monster rookie, Kobe was the most terrifying scoring machine in the league!

Especially in these two seasons, Kobe's offensive skills have reached perfection, with 81 points in a single game and 62 points in three quarters...too many classic games.

"OK, what's the bet this time?" Kenny Smith asked.

Buckley glanced at the studio, and his eyes finally stopped on Reggie Miller: "The loser kisses Reggie."

"It's a disgusting bet." Kenny Smith showed a frown on the old man of the subway.

"It's really disgusting, but I think the person who will be disgusted should be you." Barkley smiled.

"Stop talking nonsense, save your mouth and kiss Reggie later!"

Seeing that the two reached a consensus, Reggie Miller on the side: WTF? ? ?

Why did you get in by yourself when you ate half of the melon?

Treat me as a tool, have you ever asked me how I feel?

......

......

After the warm-up period, the players from both sides returned to their respective locker rooms.

D'Antoni's game system did not arrange any special tactics, but emphasized that the ball must be rotated quickly so that the game can enter the rhythm of the sun as soon as possible.

The Suns are full of confidence. In the past two seasons, the Suns have more wins and losses against the Lakers, and they have a psychological advantage.

Soon, all the Suns began to wear jerseys, sneakers, and protective gear, and the game was about to begin!

Taking advantage of the gap before entering the arena, Chen Yan still took out his mobile phone to take a look.

This is a habit he developed in his previous life, and he would check his phone whenever he had something to do.

Chen Yan first opened the text message, and then clicked on Penguin.

I have to say that Kobe has a lot of fans in China. Penguin alone received dozens of messages, and more than half of them asked Chen Yan to ask Kobe for his autograph, jersey, and sneakers...

There are classmates from elementary school to high school, and some I met in the cram school before.

Most of them are people who have not been in contact with for several years, and some are not familiar with them even when they were students. As soon as they get in touch, they have to help out by themselves. Chen Yan directly ignores this kind of people.

"Hey! Chen, ready to play." Nash patted Chen Yan who was sitting on the seat.

Chen Yan quickly put away his mobile phone, put it in the cabinet, and walked out of the player tunnel with his teammates.

After a brief appearance ceremony, the game officially started!

Lakers starting lineup: Fisher, Kobe, Walton, Garnett, Kwame Brown

Suns starters: Nash, Chen Yan, Raja Bell, Diaw, Stoudemire

Garnett made a successful jump ball and the Lakers got the first chance to attack.

To be honest, seeing the wolf king wearing the purple and gold shirt is a bit awkward, full of disobedience...

But Chen Yan didn't have time to think so much, the game had already started, he had to stay focused.

Fisher dribbles the ball quickly across half court to Garnett high up and runs to the corner himself.

Kobe asked for the ball in the low post to prepare for singles, and the three of them formed a triangle.

The Lakers played Phil Jackson's most classic triangle tactics as soon as they came up!

With a lob, Garnett puts the ball into Kobe's hands.

Kobe came up with a signature back shot!

The moment he shook his shoulders and turned around, Kobe attracted the Suns to double-team.

Kobe did not choose to force it. The Lakers are no longer the Lakers of the previous two seasons. Kobe now has trustworthy All-Star teammates around him.

The moment the double-team formed, Kobe jumped up and gave the ball to Garnett.

Garnett didn't choose to shoot when facing an open opportunity, but passed the ball into the inside with a shooting posture!

Walton made an air cut to the basket and scored two points with an easy layup.

Walton's goal was very easy. The players on the Suns court did not expect that KG would choose to pass the ball this round, and there was an obvious omission.

In fact, as an inside player, Garnett's coping ability is definitely considered top-notch, and the number of assists per year is more than 5 is the best proof.

Suns offensive round.

After the quick serve, Nash quickly advanced halfway and handed the ball to Chen Yan, and then all the Suns consciously pulled away.

Letting Chen Yan play two singles at the beginning has almost become a regular tactic for the Suns.

Chen Yan held the ball with one step outside the three-point line.

Bryant tonight is responsible for marking the rookie who has shined in the NBA in the past few games.

Since 2000, Kobe has entered the best defensive team 5 times, and is undoubtedly one of the most difficult perimeter defenders in the league.

And Kobe is an individual who can be blamed, he likes to smash his opponents, and he is undoubtedly the most difficult type of defensive player to deal with.

So Chen Yan came up and used his ultimate move, super large double CROSSOVER!

Kobe defended very well this round. He seemed to understand Chen Yan's breakthrough habit and choice of attacking route very well, and he was not deceived by Chen Yan's wobbling.

Obviously, Bryant did a lot of homework before the game.

On the surface, he teased that Chen Yan was only at the level of a high school student, but in reality, Kobe had studied his videos countless times behind his back...

After getting rid of the failure, Chen Yan did not choose to pass the ball, but took a step horizontally and then suddenly received a back luck with his crotch!

After flashing half a body's shot space, Chen Yan directly threw the skill [Unsolvable Dry Pull]!

Kobe reacted quickly, rushing to interfere immediately.

The two took off almost at the same time, and Chen Yan ignored Kobe's defensive three-point line and shot directly!

"Shh!"

The basketball smashed straight into the net like a cannonball!

The Suns 3 to 2 the Lakers.

"Hey! It's a good shot. Chen Yan pulled out Kobe when he came up!"

"It can be said that Kobe has defended well on this goal, but he was able to score, which is too unreasonable!"

The two CCTV commentators played Chen Yan on a daily basis.

But they didn't expect that this goal was actually one of the few highlight moments of Chen Yan in the first half...

At the end of the first half, the Phoenix Suns were 51 points behind 59 to 8.

陈炎半场7中2，其中三分3中1，罚球4中2拿到7分2篮板2助攻。

This half-time statistics and efficiency are undoubtedly unqualified for Chen Yan.

The first back-to-back road trip since entering the NBA made Chen Yan a bit out of shape.

The NBA is not as simple as imagined. There are many factors to consider besides skills.

The state is not only related to hand feel, physical strength, and concentration, but also has a certain impact on the effect of Chen Yan's skills!

In addition, under the cheers of fans at the Staples Center, Kobe and Garnett, the two super defenders, showed the intensity of the playoffs.

Poor form + the Lakers' playoff-level defense caused Chen Yan to be completely lost in the first half.

科比的半场数据是16分4篮板，其中两分球11中6，三分球4中2，罚球2中2。

Seeing the data comparison between the two sides, Barkley couldn't help grinning. It seems that the bet tonight is stable again!

Kenny Smith silently glanced at the underwear under his body, he won't have a famous scene of kissing Reggie Miller in underwear tonight, right?

When returning to the player tunnel, Chen Yan once again received rounds of greetings from the Lakers fans.

They were happy to see the flamboyant rookie tortured in Staples.

"Boy, I'm afraid you won't be able to score 30+ against me tonight with your performance. Do you want to modify your goal? How about 10 points? I think you still have a chance to achieve this goal."

When he walked into the player tunnel, Kobe smiled and gave Chen Yan another knife.

Chen Yan didn't respond, but chose to walk quickly into the locker room.

What he needs now is to adjust, not to further disturb his mentality by spraying with his opponents.

During the intermission, D'Antoni deliberately called Chen Yan aside.

"Take it easy, Chen! This is just an ordinary regular season."

"Just play as you usually do. If you lose, you lose. Don't have too much psychological pressure."

"It's normal to feel ups and downs. I will continue to let you start in the second half, use your speed to contain the Lakers' defense, rush inside more, and cause damage. You have this ability! The team needs your strength!"

After D'Antoni finished speaking, he patted Chen Yan on the shoulder.

Chen Yan nodded and returned to his seat.

D'Antoni still trusts himself, and he has to do something in the second half to repay the coach's trust.

At this time, Chen Yan suddenly remembered the [Status Improvement Card] lying in the item bar.

If you want to improve your status in a short time, you can only rely on the power of plug-ins...

Although there is only half a game left, as long as they can win the Lakers and continue to score 30+, then this [Status Improvement Card] will not be a loss.

Because there are extra rewards for winning streak and 30+ games in a row.

Moreover, the two opponents after the Suns are the Clippers and the Supersonics, and they are not strong. After winning this game, the Suns are very likely to usher in an eight-game winning streak!

In that case, another wave of extra honor points can be harvested.

These are all starting from the level of rewards. From a psychological level, Chen Yan is very eager to win the duel with Kobe!

Almost all players of this generation grew up watching Kobe play. They know Kobe's strength and his status in today's league.

There is no young player who does not want to beat Kobe head-to-head, and Chen Yan is no exception.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan silently opened the system and found the [Status Improvement Card] in the item bar.

"Use the Status Improvement Card!"

"Ding! The item card [Status Improvement] has been used, duration: a single game (including overtime), remaining time: half a game."
