My Name is Kobe Bryant

"Keep one, Kobe. As long as you buckle him, you can do whatever you want!" On the Lakers' flight to Seattle, O'Neal kept harassing Kobe.

O'Neill has always felt that the last injury was caused by Kemp, although there is no evidence. But the childish O'Neill still resented it. Without that fall, the MVP of the season would be in his pocket.

Kobe looked up to the sky and sighed, you, a 300-jin fat man, can do whatever you want without being attractive at all.

wrong.

It seems that there is another task, which is to button O'Neill.

Kobe's eyes lit up.

"make a deal."

O'Neill looked at Kobe who was in high spirits, and shivered for a while, a little shuddered, and he said something casually to himself. There is a bad feeling, what will Kobe do to himself?

O'Neill wiped the sweat from his forehead, quickly closed his mouth, and pretended to be in a deep sleep.

After the Lakers defeated the Grizzlies in an away game on March 27, they ushered in a three-day long vacation. Harris only arranged half a day of training time, and the rest of the time was given to the players to recover. At this point in the season, the players are far more rewarded by self-adjustment than hard training.

Immediately afterwards, the Lakers flew to Seattle, preparing to participate in the fourth decisive battle with the Seattle SuperSonics.

Although the current record of the Seattle Supersonics is not as good as last season, crushing a lot of superstars and ranking first in the Western Conference, it is also a championship contender team that must not be underestimated.

The Seattle SuperSonics are currently 50 wins and 22 losses, ranking fourth in the Western Conference. Compared with the Lakers' 63 wins and 8 losses, it is very different. They missed 60 wins this season, and they have no chance to surpass Houston or the Jazz. The Portland Trail Blazers, fifth in the West, currently have 46 wins and 25 losses and want to catch up with the Sonics. It is also more difficult. This makes them have already begun to adjust to prepare for the playoffs.

The Seattle SuperSonics did not try their best to win the most recent games, which allowed their players to preserve their physical fitness very well.

The first place in the Western Conference is the Lakers. This is a matter of finality, and it is almost certain that the Seattle SuperSonics will win the fourth place in the Western Conference. So as long as the two teams enter the second round, then they will inevitably have a confrontation in the playoffs!

George Karl is still more willing to face the Lakers than playing against the veteran Houston Big 3, or Utah's black and white double evil. The Lakers are younger. Whether it is the core of the team or the main rotation players, except for O'Neal, they have almost no experience in the playoffs. Such a young team is the most prone to mistakes and will be targeted to death.

The current record of the Lakers seems scary, but it can't scare George Karl. George Karl has led the Sonics to prepare for the Lakers for more than a month.

The main targets for the Supersonics are the Trail Blazers and the Lakers. George Karl believes that beating the Portland Trail Blazers is not a difficult task, so the team's most important opponent this season is the Lakers! In the last game against the Lakers, George Karl did a good job of targeting Kobe and suppressing the Lakers as a whole.

"What you have to do is to copy the tactics of the last game! Go kill Kobe, kill the Lakers!"

"Understood! Coach!" The morale of the Sonics players was also very high.

George Karl smiled slightly, the right time, place and people are in my hands! Harris, what are you fighting with me?

On April 1, 1997, the regular season entered the final stage. The game between the Lakers and the Sonics almost attracted the attention of the entire league. This game is a preview of the second round of the playoffs in the Western Conference. The result of this game will not affect the ranking of the Western Conference, but it will affect whether the Lakers can finally score 70 wins.

You must know that Michael Jordan has already talked about 70 wins. The Lakers want to compete for the number one position in the league. next win.

The Bulls players were watching the game, and they raised their hands in support of the Sonics winning. The Lakers' win-loss gap has always been intertwined with the Bulls. No matter how well they perform, it seems that there is no way to surpass the Lakers. They can only rely on the Lakers' final death schedule, which can give them a chance to overtake the Lakers.

After Michael Jordan scored 50+ points and defeated the Celtics, he immediately returned to the hotel, turned on the TV, and began to pay attention to the game silently. Of course, his teammates would not be ignorant of flattery, and even ran out to hang out at this time. Of course, Bulls players are also afraid to hang out in the streets of Boston. If Boston, a xenophobic city, sees Bulls players celebrating in nightclubs after winning, violent conflicts are likely to erupt!

"It's been so many years, it's really the first time I've seen Michael pay attention to a western confrontation." Scottie Pippen thought to himself, Jordan has always been an existence with his eyes above the sky, and he may still be in awe of the eastern teams. But for the western teams, only the Lakers in the SHOWTIME dynasty could let him run back to the hotel directly after the game to watch the game.

"Very good, the game hasn't started yet." Jordan lit a cigar and slumped on the sofa. The Bulls players surrounded him, quietly waiting for the players to come out.

"The players from the Lakers and the Supersonics played in turn! O'Neal appeared on the sidelines. He did not appear as a secret weapon as rumored. Shaq sat aside wearing a loose western." The commentary for this game was Old Thompson and Ma Fu, the two began to analyze the current situation and strength comparison of the two teams.

"Although I really hope that the Lakers can win this game, it seems unlikely." Thompson sighed after finishing his analysis. The Lakers have been in a bad state recently, and the Sonics are waiting for work.

Kobe was restrained by Payton again. Payton should be one of the few existences in the league who can defend Kobe alone. Even if he can't strangle Kobe, it will make Kobe's offense very difficult. Playing the hero ball in front of Payton, one person decides the victory of a game.

"Payton walked up to Kobe! He was provoking Kobe! Kobe raised his chin and looked at Payton without saying a word!"

"Bowen stepped forward and seemed to give Payton a good look! He was immediately stopped by a Supersonic player!"

"The game hasn't started yet, but the smell of sparks has already been conveyed! Players from both sides stood in a circle on the Lakers bench, as if they were about to fight!"

The Bulls players couldn't help being a little funny watching this scene.

"This game, the collision between Kobe and Payton, will be very interesting." Jordan passed the smoke of the cigar in his mouth, and then slowly exhaled.
