Chapter 198 The Legend of the NPC
Four consecutive attacks blocked, will Kobe calm down?
of course not!
The sea can be dry, the rock can be rotten, the sky can collapse, and the earth can be cracked. There will never be a word in Kobe's dictionary——
cowardly!
On November 11 last year, the Lakers played an away game against the Celtics. At that time, O'Neal was still wearing a suit and drinking drinks on the sidelines.
But he was fearless, scoring 47 points on 17-for-41 shots, especially 8-for-1 in the first quarter and 15-for-3 in the fourth quarter. In the end, the Lakers not only lost to the Celtics, but Kobe's 30 irons in a single game also became an embarrassing record in the NBA.
It feels so bad, still want to vote?
This is Kobe Bryant paranoid Bryant!
Once, in a game, Deron Williams didn't dare to shoot anymore because he didn't make a hit in 9 shots. After the game, Kobe laughed that Deron was too timid.
He said, "This kind of situation can never happen to me. I will continue to shoot even if I make 30 of 0 shots, because if you don't shoot, it means that you are defeated by yourself and you lose your only confidence!"
Well, now it's only 3 for 0 shots, plus one turnover, it's far from it!
Kobe will definitely keep attacking until he makes one.
However, Kobe is actually not easy to play against Zhao Ke.
They have the same height, similar speed, and similar reactions. Kobe's strength is much worse, especially Zhao Ke works much harder on the defensive end than on the offensive end.
What's more, although Zhao Ke's defensive skills package has been thrown away, Kobe doesn't know.
In order to avoid Zhao Ke's block, Kobe deliberately used a wide-angle fadeaway jumper, and he was almost lying on the ground!
Can this kind of ball be scored?
Those who can get in are called fairy balls, and those who can't get in are called normal strikes.
Kobe seldom scored fairy goals, and his mentality is a bit broken now. The pressure is not only from Zhao Ke, but also from the chattering fat man!
Fadeaway jumper, fadeaway jumper, turnaround jumper...
Until the sixth attempt, Bryant finally hit the shot.
Zhao Ke's defense was untimely, but Kobe has been adapting and trying, and finally succeeded this time. He roared excitedly and beat his chest hard.
Phil Jackson let out a long breath and called a timeout.
If you don't call a timeout, it will collapse!
During this time, Kobe completely took over the Lakers' offense. The Lakers hit this one out of 9 offenses, while the Knicks scored 9 points on 24-for-6 shooting, including three fast-break dunks by Matt Harprin and six three-pointers by Ke Zhao!
24:2, since the OK combination, when did the Lakers have such a miserable start?
But in the first minute, Kobe was abused too badly. He needed to score a goal to get back his collapsed mentality.
Phil Jackson is a master of psychology, he decided to fulfill Kobe.
Otherwise, this unpleasant experience will definitely become the demon of the paranoid Kobe.
After the timeout, O'Neal strongly complained about Kobe's "independence" and "drug", you are so poisonous, you are so poisonous, you are so poisonous...
Phil Jackson waved his hand at him, signaling the fat man to stay calm and stay calm.
"Kobe, you don't feel good today. Next, Shaq will lead the offense. You keep Zhao Ke outside the three-point line and open up space for other teammates, OK?"
Kobe's face was livid, he hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
"Shaq, one of the Knicks' two insiders is too short and the other is too young. Do you have the confidence to blow them up?"
O'Neill was immediately full of vigor, and his blood was boiling. He glanced at Kobe, and then said word by word: "I will blow them up to nothing!"
Phil Jackson avoided talking about the 22-point pit, and arranged tactics calmly. It seems that the score is 24:24 at this time.
As a legendary coach who never relies on tactics to win, he is very good at playing psychological hints.
The Lakers often beat their opponents by more than 20 points, so the current 24-point pit is not worth fearing. There are still more than 40 minutes in the game, just slowly recover.
The key is that you can't be in a hurry. If you are in a hurry, you will make mistakes. If you make a mistake, you will be rubbed on the ground by your opponent.
Playing again, the Lakers really shifted their offensive core, and O'Neal began to resolutely play inside.
But he found that this "thin" Brazilian kid was not easy to deal with.
Nenehilario really couldn't guard O'Neal, but he did everything possible to interfere with O'Neal, such as: preventing him from receiving the ball comfortably, preventing him from standing in his accustomed position, preventing him from turning around at the most accustomed angle...
Nene is not as mature as a rookie, which of course is due to Patrick Ewing, a dedicated assistant coach.
This season, the Knicks have hoarded a large number of young insiders, such as Nene, Haslem, Reggie Evans, Brandon Haywood, plus the original Chris Anderson and Kurt Thomas.
So these six lads are very much in Patrick Ewing's appetite.Whenever the regular training is over and Zhao Ke leads the outside players to practice three-pointers hard, Patrick Ewing's legendary center's small dining table will start.
Today is a good opportunity. O'Neal is the ultimate boss of all defensive insiders.
Now that the score is leading again, Jeff Van Gundy is thinking about training. The six insiders, in a team of two, played for more than ten minutes.
奥尼尔固然把尼克斯的内线群爆了个遍， 32投19中，罚球10中7，砍下45分16个篮板。
But he was not easy at all. The Knicks' inside group was too evil. O'Neal was always fighting hand-to-hand throughout the court and was never let go.
In the last 3 minutes, he was so tired that he almost collapsed. He was replaced by Phil Jackson. He felt pain all over his body, even Tao Zi was touched three times!
In the following three quarters, Kobe only took 8 shots and hit 3 of them. He made 17 of 4 shots and 6 of 4 free throws, scoring 12 points.
Except for the OK combination, no one from the Lakers scored in double figures.
Zhao Ke maintained a good touch in this game, making 20 of 14 shots, scoring 42 points, 4 blocks, 3 steals and 5 rebounds.
Because Zhao Ke continued to attack the Lakers with three-pointers, the Lakers continued to lose blood, and did not fill the 22-point hole until the end of the game.
The Knicks defeated the Lakers 114:93.
At the press conference after the game, O'Neill made complaints about Zhao Ke's abnormal three-pointer:
"As you all know, I shoot very well around the basket, but Zhao Ke's three-pointers are actually higher than my three-pointers! This is so frustrating. You know, every time I try to get two points, Zhao Ke will get three points!"
O'Neal rubbed his head and made an analogy: "This kind of despair is like in the game, we are all players, and Zhao Ke is an NPC, he can't win at all!"
