The Rest, Only Noise

In the third game, the broken Kings thought that it is okay to lose, but Kobe must not be able to play comfortably.

There was not a second of suspense in the entire game.

From the moment the referee tossed the ball up, the Kings had lost the game.

Their sparse cooperation, lack of communication tactics, and short and long shots are all pushing this game to garbage time earlier.

Benjamin Wilson didn't expect that he could change into the uniform and rest after only 22 minutes of playing.

It was halfway through the third quarter, when the Lakers' lead reached 25 points, and the Kings "justifiably" replaced the main players.

Bill Laimbier, who was on the NBC guest table, was furious: "The Kings seem to want to lose suspense in this game more than the Los Angeles people. They are so decisive that people think it is not the Lakers who take the lead."

The opponent replaced the main force, and Louis could only follow up.

So, Kobe and others played.

And then something magical happened.

The Kings, which was originally a stagnant pool, suddenly woke up after Kobe played.

They were all high-spirited and full of hostility towards Kobe.

The specific manifestation of this hostility is that whenever Kobe has the ball, there is a double-team.

No matter where he gets the ball, the Kings' two players closest to him will instantly double-team him.

Treat a rookie like a three-man double-team with the ball.  …

"The last rookie who was targeted like this was probably Wilt Chamberlain decades ago." "It's understandable that Wilt was treated like this. I really can't understand how the Kings treated Kobe." Lambiel was surprised Said, "But they showed the same vigor they used to deal with Kobe to fight the Lakers. This game must still be played."

Off the court, Wilson was "jealous".

"This is a treat that even I don't have."

Because he was double-teamed by three people as soon as he got the ball, Kobe had to be reasonable if he didn't want to be reasonable.

His random pass is a wide open.

As if the Kings didn't know how to write dead words, they repeatedly emptied Nash and Ellis.

This is the second of the three most accurate players on the Lakers.

Ellis hit three-pointers in a row.

Thanks to Kobe, he hit three three-pointers in two minutes and scored nine points.

For this reason, he deliberately patted Kobe's butt: "I can't tell, you still have some advantages.

Kobe replied dismissively: "You just said that because I passed you the ball."

Ellis sneered and said, "If you can pass the ball like this every day, let alone praise you out of conscience, even if you say you are the number one rookie in history, I have no problem."

Nash also benefited.

He usually passes the ball to Kobe, but today it is rare to eat the pie from the other party, and it is quite delicious.

Nash did not have the leisurely mind of Ellis, he never bickered with Kobe.

As an older rookie, he is very cautious.

Because Kobe is the second youngest player in the league, he is only 18 years old, even if he makes a huge mistake, the team will continue to give him opportunities and wait for him to grow.

He can't.

He is 23 years old. According to today's standards that increasingly encourage talented players to enter the league early, he belongs to the type that is mostly developed and lacks potential.

Therefore, there is not much room for error left for him.

As a commander, he felt that he was doing okay, but today's Kobe pointed him to a path he had never thought of before.

Why is he always passive in "Beautiful Basketball"?

84 games have passed, and under the "beautiful basketball" system, Nash still plays the "puppet" of Wilson and the tragedian.

It is obvious that Nash has a unique understanding of the system, and his familiarity with "Whale Landing" is getting higher and higher, and he can understand almost every path of "Meteor" tactics, but in the system, he just passively obeys orders.

Nash has been wondering why.

Today, he understands.

Because he has no offensive threat to force the opponent to take the initiative to change.

In other words, he is not aggressive enough to put pressure on the opponent's defense, so it is difficult for him to play real "beautiful basketball" with himself as the core.

And Kobe, he knows a hammer "beautiful basketball"?

He's just a spoiled high school selfish guy.

But such a person, as long as he is double-teamed, can also send a comfortable pass.

You have to say Nash was wrong about Kobe, but he was right.

The king's mindless blockade of Kobe ended up losing more in the last quarter and a half than the previous three quarters.

Kobe had 0 points, 4 rebounds and 13 assists in the game, with a plus-minus value of 39+.

In the end, the Lakers beat the Kings by 64 points 134 to 70.

"I always thought he was a selfish brat, and obviously I was wrong."

That's what Barkley said.

"I bet he's going to be an All-Star next season."

This is what the tragedian said.

"I'm happy with Kobe's assists in double figures, but I'm not happy that the Kings triple-teamed a rookie."

Wilson was still thinking about it.

"It's nothing special." Louie poured cold water on the classic downwind. "The King has adopted a suicide strategy since Kobe came on the court. Kobe just did what he should do."

Then, although he did not score but made great contributions, Kobe, who was affirmed by everyone except Louis and Liu Yuqing, couldn't help but sigh: "You know, I am a team player. I want to break the stereotype of high school players. We are not We don’t understand the heights of heaven and earth, we are not selfish, we are not conceited, we are just... you know, we are just seekers on this road, this is my way.”

Kobe's speech fully shows that Louis's basin of cold water is not enough.

So, in the locker room, when the old birds were immersed in the joyful atmosphere of "the high school kid has finally grown up", Kobe promised that he would become a more selfless player.

Louis just smiled and said nothing.

Liu Yuqing looked at him strangely: "Are you sure other teams besides the Kings will double-team you with three people?"

"Cazzo!!!" Kobe yelled, "Shut up! You don't understand my game at all, because you have already rested, so you are not qualified to comment!"

Garnett laughed, "That's right, Jiang Duo, I think you are dissatisfied because you didn't receive the pass from Bean."

"That's right, your thinking is really selfish!" Kobe said arrogantly, "Learn more from me!"

"Indeed, you are too selfless." Liu Yuqing's words once made Kobe think that he had conquered the meanest person in the team. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have given up the rookie game MVP to AI."

At that moment, everyone burst into laughter except Liu Yuqing and Kobe.

Kobe, who was still concerned about his failure to be the MVP of the rookie game, roared: "That was my MVP! It's completely shady! AI is a thief!"

"I was the MVP of that game!!!"

"Yes, you are!" Garnett once again expressed solidarity with his party.

Unfortunately, his smile gave him away.

Obviously, he was also amused by Liu Yuqing's sarcasm about Kobe, and he was the one who laughed the loudest.

And that sentence just now was not even Liu Yuqing's most ruthless sentence tonight.

When Kobe hysterically cursed the judges and the "thief" of the MVP of the rookie game, Liu Yuqing waited for him to finish, and then said: "Then you have to be selfish, otherwise the Rookie of the Year award will be stolen by Al', go."

"Cazzo!!!"

Kobe ran away on the spot, and the pleasure brought by a good game was wiped out by Liu Yuqing's few words.

"Just this mouth...it's no wonder he was isolated in Atlanta." Byrd snorted, "Although it's not too much, but..."

"Hillbilly,

If you think Jiang Duo is too much, then why are you laughing?"

"I do not have!"

"***Tell me no again, you've been laughing!"

"Who made the rule against laughing in the locker room? I laugh because I think of happy things!"

It was a fun night for the Lakers.

They defeated the Kings with a surprising advantage, swept their opponents easily and happily, and advanced to the semifinals.

The Lakers' semifinal opponent will be decided between the Spurs and the Suns.

The first round between the fourth in the division and the fifth in the division is often the most intense series in the first round.

Because the ranking shows that the strength between them is almost the same.

The series between the Spurs and the Suns played a full five games.

Allen Iverson did not lose the wind against Kevin Johnson. What really made the Spurs passive was that David Robinson did not establish the expected advantage in the interior.

Robinson's Yu Tiancan, like him, has recovered from serious injuries.

As a result, although Yu Tiancan couldn't defend against it, his solid back attack allowed him to easily take down Robinson.

Robinson couldn't gain an advantage in the inside battlefield, so he floated to a high position to play pick-and-roll with Iverson~www.readwn.com~ This really hit Yu Tiancan's deathbed.

But the Suns' coaching staff is also firmly blocking the inside line. No matter how Robinson wants to shoot, he can do whatever he wants, and the inside line must be blocked.

So Robinson actually only needs to seize the opportunity that the opponent deliberately missed to him, and the opponent will be very difficult to fight.

However, Robinson's shooting is not stable enough, accurate in one game, not accurate in one game. If Iverson and Mashburn hadn't played well enough, the Spurs might have died on his shooting long ago.

In the fifth match, Iverson showed his true qualities as a supernova. The more critical the moment, he played the best. He scored 38 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists. Robinson's performance was still not good. The night when Mashburn became the iron king, in the Destroying Kevin Johnson in a **** hand-to-hand fight led the Spurs to the semifinals.

"I can't wait to see him bring home the trophy (Rookie of the Year)," Popovich said. "I'd be surprised if AI didn't win unanimously."
