My Name is Kobe Bryant

Chapter 658 Chasing points against the odds!

"No way, no way! Shaq! Haven't you had enough to eat? Why can't you even beat Malone?" Campbell opened his mouth wide and looked at O'Neal.

The only person in the entire team who would talk to the Sharks like this is Campbell, the hermaphrodite. This is the meaning of Campbell's existence. He can say things in the locker room that are inconvenient for Kobe to say!

This sentence fits Kobe's heart very much. In this game, O'Neal's dominance was indeed average when facing the Jazz's defense. It seems that O'Neal didn't play actively enough after playing against the four major centers, Da Meng and the Admiral.

He made 11 of 18 shots and scored 27 points and 11 rebounds. It seemed very good, but this was scored on the head of the 2.06-meter Malone!

O'Neill suppressed his blush.

"It's not that I can't beat Malone, don't look at Malone's thick arms! And the double-teams on the side are not vegetarian! They put 3 forwards, just like last year's Bulls, they attacked me endlessly! I cut Isn’t it enough to score 27 points?”

"Now is not the time to talk about this," Kobe said.

How should the fourth quarter be played? This is what should be discussed now.

A 16-point difference! In this kind of confrontation between super strong teams, this is a very shocking gap!

Especially since there is a completely unpreventable superstar Malone on the opposite side who has been scoring. He has made 6 three-pointers so far! If Malone continues to attack like this, he might score 50+ again!

"The Lakers have been cornered by Malone!" This game was narrated by Jazz legend Pete Maravich.

"The most powerful forward in the league! He can even be said to be one of the top three power forwards in history! Once he breaks out, his dominance will be so terrifying!"

"Malone's performance in this game was so strong! The defensive end actually withstood O'Neal's first step! You must know that there is a few levels of difference in size between them! If it weren't for Malone's burly muscles like Mr. Olympia, the league would have No player with a score lower than 2.10 can complete such a defense!"

"The offensive performance is even more historic! Is Malone going to be the only player to score 50+ points twice in a row in this playoffs?"

"The Lakers did not change their formation! Harris chose to believe in his players and his tactics."

Harris crossed his arms and stood on the sidelines.

He was prepared to lose this game.

In fact, he did not expect the Lakers to 3-0 the Jazz. The resilience of a veteran team like the Jazz is terrifying. This game back at their home court is destined to be a counterattack like a crazy beast!

It's better to let them hit the empty space with one punch, and then win the away game in the next game. With 3:1 and 3 match points, they can also easily win the series!

This is Harris's consideration, but Kobe on the court didn't think so much.

So far, Kobe has scored 21 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists. The number of double teams in this game has been greatly reduced. Affected by the changes in Jazz's defensive tactics, the shooting percentage of the Lakers' outside shooters has also dropped significantly compared to G1G2.

This made Kobe not play so easily in the team rhythm of the first half.

After all, Kobe's organizational skills are not up to the standards of a superstar. He is better at tearing apart defenses with his offense and then feeding the ball to his teammates. There is no way to create offensive opportunities by passing the ball.

Under the coaching of Harris, Kobe still relied on the team's rhythm in the first half, which caused the Lakers' offensive efficiency to decline significantly.

He scored 7 assists in 3 quarters, which was much worse than before.

And 13 of the 21 points were also scored in the third quarter. If Kobe hadn't taken the initiative to attack in the third quarter, the game would have been even worse!

Chasing points!

All Kobe could think about was chasing points!

At the All-Star Game, Kobe Bryant came back from 21 points behind to win against Jordan!

Now Kobe has nothing to fear when facing Malone!

Even though he keenly felt that the coach didn't care so much about the victory, otherwise he would have replaced Malone with Ben.

"It's started! The Lakers are starting to chase points!"

"At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers launched a full-scale attack! The Jazz did not double-team Kobe! So will Kobe's sanctions against the Jazz begin?" Pete Maravich was worried.

"Why! Don't give up yet!" Malone patted his burly chest and looked at Kobe with a fierce look.

"I hope you will still remember this sentence after the game." Kobe glanced at Malone, three steps away from the three-point line, and threw the ball directly!

Super long three-pointer!

Russell's defense against Kobe was one-on-one defense. Then he is destined to not dare to defend too closely. If he gets passed, no one will help him. So when Kobe's position became farther and farther away, Russell got a headache!

To follow or not to follow?

After missing the first ball, Kobe immediately used a super long three-pointer that shocked everyone and silenced the cheers in the center of the triangle.

For the second ball, Russell followed up. Kobe cross-stepped in front of his body and directly passed Russell cleanly. When he reached the inside, it was a stretch dunk!

"Oops! With this kind of defense, Kobe is going crazy!" Pete Maravich exclaimed.

"The score is 16 points ahead, and Malone is also in a state of no solution. No matter how strong Kobe is, how many nails can he hit?" Another commentator disagreed.

"You don't understand!" Only a crazy scorer like Pistol understands Kobe's terror.

Also a scorer, Pete Maravich is also known for his explosive shooting and scoring. He knew what kind of results Kobe's style of play could achieve.

Kobe is already very famous among players. When was Kobe the most feared?

crucial moment!

The Lakers won 73 games thanks to Kobe's almost invincible key shots! As long as they can lead into the fourth quarter, the Lakers have not lost this season!

At the critical moment, Kobe has the ball in his hands, and no one is afraid!

When Kobe Bryant plays HIGH at a critical moment, even with a 16-point lead, Jerry Sloan can't help but sweat dripping from his forehead. This game is almost won. Even facing the Bulls, Jerry Sloan, who holds a 16-point advantage, will not panic at all.

But facing Kobe

Facing the strongest key player in the league

No way!

This guy can't really reverse 16 points in a single quarter in front of Malone, right?

"Bad boy! Don't think you can make a comeback like this!" Malone's big crab-like elbow opened the way, pushed past Bowen who was defending O'Neal, and then hit the board from mid-range.

Nostrils flared, breathing heavily! Malone's red eyes stared at Kobe like an angry bull.

You Kobe have no solution!

But Malone, who plays center, also has no answer when facing the Lakers' defense!
