My Name is Kobe Bryant

Chapter 250 The Beginning of the Final Battle

The game entered the last ten minutes of the fourth quarter, and the coaches of the two sides began to adjust their lineups, replacing them with their ideal starting lineups, preparing for the final decisive battle.

The cheers of Cleveland Gund Stadium were endless. In this desert of basketball, they never expected to experience such a battle in person.

The tense situation and the narrow score difference stimulated the rapid secretion of adrenaline in everyone present.

Harris adjusted the lineup again. Although Stockton was a good match for Kobe on the offensive end, he faced too much pressure on Penny on the defensive end.

Western guards: Kobe, Richmond.

Forwards: Eddie Jones, Kevin Garnett.

Center: Hakeem Olajuwon.

Not surprisingly, this lineup will play the entire game. Kobe's current score is 19 points, and Olajuwon's 16 points is the highest score besides Kobe. If the West wins, the MVP trophy will inevitably be produced between the two of them.

Olajuwon has won the Finals MVP twice and the regular season MVP, but he has not won the All-Star MVP.

The eastern lineup has also been slightly adjusted. Collins believes that the team's offensive firepower is completely sufficient. What is needed is to strengthen the inside defense and replace the gorilla Ewing with the more energetic and younger Uncle Mu.

The lineup in the East was adjusted to-Jordan, Penny, Hill, Pippen, Mutombo.

With this lineup, the offensive and defensive speeds are faster. Although lacking Ewing's post-up and high-post support, Collins believes that Jordan can fill this role.

West 91: East 100.

Nine points behind, the only superstars in the west are Kobe and Olajuwon, while there are three in the east, and Pippen can be regarded as half a superstar beside Jordan.

3.5VS2!

"No matter how you look at it, the probability of winning in the West is not very high." The magician scratched his head helplessly.

"Even if Michael feels cold, the stars in the East are still not what the West can beat. If Hakeem and Drexler are 5 years younger, they may still have a chance."

The commentary is very good at analysis. It is very difficult to win this game.

Players from both sides returned to the field again.

The referee blows the whistle, and the West has the ball.

Kobe pushed forward with the ball. This season he is used to playing against the wind, and it is rare to play against the wind. However, Kobe's most powerful ability is to turn against the wind.

Jordan didn't say a word, he bent down and stared at Kobe. At this moment in the game, Jordan also showed his best defensive state.

"Double pick-and-roll!" Kobe stopped 5 meters outside the three-point line, widening the space far away. Jordan hesitated for a while and forced it.

Can't shoot Kobe Bryant! This is Phil Jackson's conclusion!

In basketball, the more space there is, the more offensive options there are. Kobe pulled so far and called a double pick-and-roll at the same time, Jordan, Pippen, and Mutombo's defenses were all pulled out.

The pick-and-roll quality of Garnett and Olajuwon was very high, and Kobe took the opportunity to wipe it out!

Get rid of Jordan! Olajuwon hung up Jordan!

Garnett cuts the mid-range, and Olajuwon goes to the penalty area!

The tactical movement of the three players in the west has made the east's iron-locked defense chaotic!

The defender in front of Kobe became Uncle Mu!

accelerate! Kobe is short! Take a step forward and pass the 31-year-old Uncle Mu in a flash!

Get to the rim, draw Hill's help, hit the floor with a dream pass, and score a slam dunk.

93:100.

"Fack, Dicambe, you just squat under the basket!" Jordan complained loudly.

Uncle Mu spread his hands.

Pence didn't look back at the defense, pushing again.

Although Richmond is not good at defense, his excellent physique can still largely limit Penny's breakthrough.

Hardaway didn't get entangled and crossed Hill.

Hill throws high and lobs Jordan.

Jordan attacks Kobe again!

False left shoulder, step right!

Turn over and cast!

Decisive!

Kobe didn't even have time to react and interfere with Jordan.

"DUANG!"

The old iron king.

Kobe smiled.

Jordan's complexion is dark and red, this bad touch.

"Michael, it's okay, I get it. There are a few days every month."

Jordan stared at Kobe.

Kobe took Garnett's pass and dribbled the ball into the frontcourt.

Hill makes up the defense.

Kobe wants to play fast!

The crotch is connected to the front and the direction is changed!

Step back!

Three point jumper!

"That's a lot of range! Kobe's step-back covered too much distance!"

"Didn't wait for teammates to fall into position! Didn't wait for Jordan to get back on defense! Decisive offense."

"A wise choice. It is impossible for Kobe to break through Hill. It is a very good choice to avoid the edge and use a rhythm adjustment to complete the shot."

Kobe didn't use the step-back much. He studied the style of play of a bearded man in the later stage. The combination of the step-back and the European step is indeed a very efficient way of scoring.

The more difficult part is the control of the rhythm and the stability of the core of the body.

And Kobe! It is precisely these two masters.

"Shua!"

hit.

96:100.

"After Kobe came on the court, he had an assist and a three-pointer, reducing the difference to 4 points!"

"I have to admit that Kobe's style of play is very spiritual. I dare not do this step-back three-pointer at this time." The smiling assassin also sincerely praised.

Penny advances with the ball, picks and rolls with Pippen, and singles out Eddie Jones!

Continuous crotch dribbles shook Jones and reached the middle distance!

cast!

Score!

96:102.

Penny played very seriously in this game. He is currently 7 of 10, 3 of 5 three-pointers, 19 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals. He wants to use an All-Star MVP to wash away his recent depression.

Anxious, the score rose alternately in the next few minutes.

Kobe and Olajuwon took over the offense in the West, and the two completed the high-ball quotient cooperation continuously to complete the offense.

On the Eastern side, after Jordan slipped to the rim for a layup and failed to make a free throw, he resigned to his fate and began to organize and connect more balls to his teammates.

The twin stars of Hardaway and Hill are shining, and they are not inferior to Kobe and Olajuwon.

The game lasted three minutes.

118 West: 121 East!

Glen Rice was moved to the court to replace Pippen, who didn't have much chance to perform.

On the West side, the lineup remains unchanged.

Except for Olajuwon, the other players in the West are in their youth and are not too tired.

And Olajuwon does not have enough physical energy. Mutombo's defensive pressure, even if Dameng completes an offense every time, he consumes a lot of physical energy.

Harris has no second center to replace, O'Neal and David Robinson are injured, and Olajuwon is the only center hope in the West.

"Hakim! Can you still hold on?"

Olajuwon's jersey was soaked in sweat and poured down a large glass of Gatorade.

"no problem."

You say I won the championship because Jordan retired?

Today, I will win this victory.

Just like the game against the Bulls more than ten days ago!
