Reborn as Kobe

　　 The Lakers and Rockets players have tried their best, and the coaches of the two teams have also struggled with their wits. If the adjustment is slow, they may be beaten by the opponent.

　　 After the start of the second quarter, both sides put on the bench, and the Rockets have five players: O'Neal, Cole, Bowen, Roderick Rhodes, Eddie Johnson.

　　 Five Lakers: Fisher, Campbell, Eddie Jones, Fox, Joan Barry.

　　 Fisher continued to play on the court to organize the offense, and the Lakers' major players all took a rest off the court. The Lakers' tactics are very simple. Fisher organizes the ball and opens up the small ball tactics. Players on the field interspersed with running positions, mainly running and bombing.

　　 The Rockets are very interesting. They focus on positional defense and try to delay every round to 24 seconds.

　　 Little O'Neal rallied all his energy and began to turn the tide on the inside. Even the experienced Campbell was no opponent.

O'Neal asked for the ball in the second half. Rhodes passed the ball to O'Neal. He leaned against Campbell and turned to the left. When Campbell was swayed, he immediately turned to the left to take a jumper and the basketball went straight. Basket.

　　 This series of actions is very well connected, and the rhythm is also in place. This is the result of the guidance of Rio Lajuwon on weekdays.

The Lakers didn’t panic when they saw O’Neal score a goal. Fisher drove the ball down quickly. After being blocked by Bowen, he scored the ball directly to Eddie Jones. Jones attracted Johnson to help defend, and the horse passed the ball to the right three-point line. Outside Joan Barry, Joan Barry made an open three-pointer and immediately returned one.

　　 Both teams made a lot of mistakes on the bench, and no one guarded them. It took five minutes to be replaced by the main player. At this time, the score was 55:49 and the Lakers led by six points.

The Lakers attacked, Kobe dribbled the ball and was entangled by Tracy McGrady for half of the game. Bryant used a butterfly step to pass Tracy McGrady, attracting Ben Wallace to assist in the defense and pass the ball to O'Neal. Horry has already beat Rajuwonka was behind and O'Neal flew to dunk, 57:49.

　　 Nash dribbled the ball, and once was entangled by Van Exel, the Rockets could not launch a fast break, Nash could only pass the ball to Tracy McGrady and began to move.

　　 McGrady faces Kobe with the ball, and wants to use speed to force it. Kobe was prepared and stuck on his breakthrough line ahead of time. Tracy McGrady could only hand the ball to Olajuwon. Olajuwon faced Horry's defense and turned back and made a hook shot, 57:51.

　　 On the sidelines, Old Nelson pinched his waist and compared D'Antoni to see who was louder, and there was a booing sound in the audience.

　　 The Lakers attacked, Van Exel dribbled the ball quickly and was blocked by Stephen Jackson on the three-point line. Van Exel didn't come forward and gave the ball to O'Neal. O'Neal attracted Ben Wallace and Olajuwon's double-team and then scored the ball to Horry on the right corner three-point line. Horry glanced at his feet and hit a three-pointer with a jumper. 60:51.

After Horry feels up, there will always be loopholes in the Rockets’ double-teaming against O’Neal. If the Rockets continue to defend against the "OK combination", then the other Lakers players will appear open, Horry, Eddie Jones and Van Exel. The shooting ability is pretty good, and the ability to seize opportunities is also very strong, which makes Ben Wallace, who has almost no shooting ability, a tasteless.

　　 The Rockets immediately replaced Ben Wallace with O'Neal, adding an offensive point.

　　 O'Neal made a contribution as soon as he came on the court. After receiving Olajuwon’s inside pass, he squeezed Horry away with his body and smashed the ball easily.

　　 Kobe dribbled the ball through halftime and was double-teamed as soon as he reached the three-point line. He divided the ball to Eddie Jones on the left.

　　 Jones used his experience to sway Stephen Jackson and provoked a mid-range shot, but the ball popped out of the basket.

　　 O'Neal desperately stuck O'Neal, Olajuwon took the backcourt rebound.

　　 Rockets attacked, McGrady got rid of Kobe by covering and made a strong breakthrough inside. Horry's role began to appear at this time, stepping forward to defend McGrady close, with small movements, stabs the waist and the thighs. McGrady didn't pass the ball, turned around and didn't control the shooting rhythm well, and the ball missed the basket.

　　 The Lakers attacked, Bryant was double-teamed and scored the ball to Van Exel. Van Exel attracted Jackson's help and quickly scored the ball to Jones. Jones seized the opportunity this time and made a mid-range jumper. 62:51.

　　 Nash dribbled the ball through halftime and looked for McGrady again. McGrady tried to break through Kobe after receiving the ball, faked a real pass, and handed the ball to O'Neal. O'Neal faced Horry's defensive hook and hit 62:53.

　　 The entire second half of the second quarter was carried out in the anxiousness of both sides, and the score difference always hovered within nine minutes or ten.

　　 At the end of the half game, the score was 71:66 and the Lakers led by five points.

During the intermission, Thomas sighed: "The play of both sides in this game is really... indescribable. This may be the toughest game the Lakers have played since the start of the game. With this, these young players on the Rockets are also Proud enough."

　　 Bidder said: "This game is the most exciting regular season of this season. The Rockets will surely shock everyone this season."

　　 O'Neal began to show off at the beginning of the third quarter. The "big sharks" who had been silent for halftime ruled the penalty area and scored three consecutive rounds. He first squeezed O'Neal's one-handed dunk, and then caused Olajuwon and O'Neal to foul each, and made 3 of 4 free throws.

　　 The Rockets immediately replaced O'Neal with Ben Wallace, and Big Ben played against O'Neal again.

　　 O'Neal immediately changed his style of play and began to pass the ball out. Horry made two consecutive three-pointers in the open, and Big Ben became a decoration again.

　　 D'Antoni and Tom Thibodeau immediately called a timeout, and the two negotiated for a while, then replaced the big Ben again, replaced Bowen, and the Rockets began to attack the Lakers.

　　 Bowen's purpose is to pick up missed three-pointers, mainly for defense. As the Lakers don't know Bowen except Kobe, there are still some people who have suffered a lot despite the warning.

　　 O'Neal passed the ball to Horry again, who did not notice that Bowen had followed. Horry opened his hand to take a shot, suddenly felt a pain in his ribs, and then he was hit **** the inside of his knee. Horry yelled. The basketball was stolen by Bowen. One three points.

　　 Bowen's small defensive moves are very concealed. Horry suffered a dumb loss and could only think of returning.

　　 But then Bowen’s performance made the Lakers’ perimeter old churros collectively depressed. After so many years of wind and rain, I have seen a player with a dirty defense, but I have never seen such a dirty player. Bowen's various moves with no lower limit remind Horry, Eddie Jones and Van Exel of the old **** Stockton.

　　 Bowen originally wanted to "make love" with Kobe, but it was a pity that he was elbow twice by Kobe, who knew his routine well, and soon began to doubt life. That is to say, Bowen is a Rockets player, equivalent to a Kobe employee, otherwise it would be strange not to lie down and leave the court with Kobe's years of martial arts skills.

　　 Bowen also knew what he was interested in, and gave Bryant to McGrady to defend, and he continued to target other Lakers players.

　　 Bowen’s unexpected appearance greatly reduced the Lakers’ perimeter offensive efficiency. By the end of the third quarter, the score was 96:93, and the Rockets had almost tied the score.

　　 In the fourth quarter, neither side dared to replace the main players, and both were struggling to support it. This game was completely attritional at this time.

　　 With one minute and twenty seconds left in the game, relying on McGrady's dry three-pointer, the Rockets finally evened the difference. At this time, the score was 120:120.

The Rockets had the ball, Nash dribbled to the high post, and relied on Jackson's screen to make a strong jump to the basket. O'Neal raised his hands in the penalty area and was ready to block the shot. Nash glanced at the right side and distributed the ball to the left-side three-point line Jackson, Jackson's eyes were fierce, he gritted his teeth and threw the ball, hitting a three-pointer with a "brush", 120:123.

Kobe dribbled the ball quickly through the half, facing McGrady's defense and dividing the ball to the right bottom corner. O'Neal ran out of the basket and blocked Bowen, Horry calmly shot the ball and made a three-pointer. Also, 123:123.

As soon as Nash crossed the center line with the ball, Van Exel began to interfere. McGrady stepped forward to take it. Nash used McGrady’s screen to go outside the three-point line and distributed the ball to Jackson. Jackson rushed inside and passed the ball. Olajuwon, Olajuwon used the big dream dance step to sway O'Neal and made a mid-range shot. 123: 125.

　　 Kobe dribbled the ball to the free throw line and passed the ball to O'Neal in the penalty area. O'Neal smashed Olajuwon with his back and turned to hit the hook. 125: 125.

There were 28 seconds left in the game. The Rockets did not call a timeout. Nash controlled the rhythm until it suddenly started with ten seconds left. When Bryant stepped forward, he passed the ball to McGrady. McGrady stepped on the three-point line. Scored the ball, 125:127, leaving only six seconds for the Lakers.

　　 McGrady looked up to the sky and hugged with his teammates. Old Nelson immediately called a timeout.

　　 "Kobe, you control this ball." Old Nelson said.

　　 Kobe whispered in O'Neill's ear, and immediately called Fisher, Horry and Joan Barry together and whispered.

　　 After the timeout ended, the Lakers replaced Eddie Jones with Fisher, and the Rockets started man-marking. O'Neal directly gave the ball to Kobe, who was fast, McGrady desperately interfered with Kobe's shot. Kobe didn't stop after receiving the ball and passed the ball directly to Fisher. At this time, Fisher was only next to Nash, and Nash almost snapped his hands. In the face of Fisher. With one second left, Fisher shot the ball one step away from the three-point line, the light came in, 128:127, the Lakers away with Fisher's final three-pointer to kill the Rockets.
