My Name is Kobe Bryant

February in the NBA is destined to be uneventful.

After the trade ended, the league instantly had three more teams competing for the championship or above.

Terrible Spurs!

Ray Allen joins the Timberwolves!

And the 76ers who reunited with the Gemini stars!

The alliance is in an uproar!

It was originally a chaotic season with many heroes competing for the title, and with the addition of three teams that are capable of competing for the O'Brien Cup, I am afraid no one can predict the trend of the league this year!

After enjoying the post-All-Star break, Kobe returned to Los Angeles to prepare for the NBA's off-duty schedule.

As of the All-Star break, the Lakers had 34 wins and 16 losses, ranking third in the Western Conference.

On February 19, they went to San Antonio away to face the Spurs, who were fifth in the Western Conference with 29 wins and 18 losses.

This game, before the All-Star Game, may only be a game that attracts a little attention.

Popovich and Kobe are old enemies and were eliminated by the OK Dynasty in the playoffs for three consecutive years. All the grudges and grudges that happened in the middle make the match between the Spurs and the Lakers always very interesting.

But it’s limited to an ordinary regular season game.

The Spurs are a defensive-oriented team, and not many people like to watch their games.

Fans prefer to watch teams like the Lakers, Kings, and Celtics compete against each other! Instead of watching Duncan swing the ball slowly.

But now, after the Spurs and Mavericks completed a trade, the game has a much different meaning.

The Spurs, who are ranked fifth in the Western Conference, are far more powerful than fifth in the Western Conference!

It is very likely that this is a super team that far exceeds any team in the league currently, including the Celtics with a lot of stars!

"I'm very happy that my new player can play immediately in this game." Popovich was high-spirited in the interview.

Finlay Garagabel!

Two young and energetic forwards and guards with excellent three-pointers!

With these two players, Popovich's confidence has greatly increased.

Popovich doesn't expect them to be able to lock down Kobe, but they can still limit Kobe's offense better than the Spurs' old arms and legs before!

Coupled with their three-pointers, the team's offensive space is much more comfortable!

The Spurs are now fully capable of revenge against the Lakers.

revenge!

This is the Spurs' revenge against the Lakers!

The biggest enemy in Popovich's mind is always the arrogant OK dynasty!

Every time Popovich felt he had a chance to win the championship, the Lakers stepped up and shattered the Spurs' championship dream.

Without the OK Dynasty, how many championships would the Spurs have now?

Maybe I’ve already won 2 or 3!

In recent years, the Spurs are really worthy of any team except the Lakers.

But the Spurs, who are at their peak, are still being held down by the Lakers for many years!

How could the arrogant Popovich accept such a result?

Now that the Lakers don't have O'Neal, they only have one Kobe!

Although the OK Dynasty is no longer the OK Dynasty.

But Popovich has always regarded the Lakers as his number one enemy.

That team, with that man's presence, will never be a weak team!

"Won! Congratulations to the San Antonio Spurs for defeating the Los Angeles Lakers!" Commentator Iceman George Gervin's voice couldn't express the joy!

The Spurs win!

The first focus battle of the year after the transaction! The Spurs defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 112:107!

This game was a fierce battle to the end!

Laga Berga Finley's defensive effect is beyond Popovich's expectation!

Facing Kobe, Laga Bell didn't have the fear of ordinary players at all!

That’s it!

During one attack, he even choked Kobe and knocked him to the ground!

But in the next moment, Ragabel was also knocked to the ground by the martial arts saint Stephen Jackson who was following.

Although Laga Bell and Stephen Jackson were both sent off by bad fouls.

Popovich felt happy instead!

The Spurs finally have a player who dares to stand up to Kobe!

This kind of momentum is what the team desperately needs.

Duncan and the general are all players with meek personalities. They were dunked by Kobe and no one on the team dared to stand up!

And now there is!

Although Kobe scored 51 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 4 blocks and 3 turnovers with a 60% shooting rate in front of Laga Bell.

But Popovich still feels that Laga Bell is the most suitable ‘Kobe Terminator’ for the Spurs!

That’s right!

After the game, Popovich dubbed Laga Bell the Kobe Terminator!

And when reporters asked him about the completely non-basketball chokehold he did on Kobe Bryant.

"That foul I made against Kobe? It was just an ordinary defensive move." Lagabell looked calm. The look of a man who said nothing harshly made Popovich even more satisfied.

This is what the Spurs want!

The reporters were in an uproar!

If this defensive action was performed against other players in the league, it would at most cause a heated discussion.

But this is Kobe!

Kobe is an asset to the entire league!

"I think the league should investigate this foul." Jerry West put pressure on the league after learning that Kobe was fine.

Kobe crossed his arms and showed no emotion.

"Kobe, Popovich said that Laga Bell is the 'Kobe Terminator' and said that the foul he committed against you was just a normal foul. What do you think of this?"

Kobe found it a little funny.

The Spurs just happened to win one game. If Stephen Jackson hadn't left the game and Duncan was completely in an unsolvable state in the second half, the Spurs might not have won this game so easily.

"I never complain about fouls on me, that's Lagaber's job."

"If they like the title 'Kobe Terminator,' he can continue to use it, but next time, I will score 60 points on their head."

"When is the next game against the Spurs?"

"March 4th? Very soon. I'm looking forward to this game."

The Spurs' victory over the Lakers officially announced the beginning of the turmoil in the second half of the league!

February 25, 2003, Celtics 110:117 Timberwolves.

Kevin Garnett scored a career high against Keith Van Horn! Crazy 51 points, 22 rebounds, 4 assists, 7 blocks, 2 steals and 4 turnovers!

Ray Allen scored 27 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists!

Marbury scored 17 points and 6 assists!

The three of them almost scored 100 points!

fear!

The Wolf King roars!

The Celtics, the No. 1 team in the Eastern Conference, collapsed!

Even if McGrady scored 37 points, he still couldn't save the world!

March 1st, Philadelphia 76ers 125:106 Saxon King!

Spurs 96:71 Heat!

From now on, no team's position can be guaranteed!

Even the Celtics, even the Kings!

All team rankings are subject to change!

No one has secured the ranking!

From now on, the regular season is the battlefield!

Every team aiming for the playoffs must take the regular season seriously. Winning or losing in the regular season becomes extremely important!

All teams want to compete for a high ranking!

All teams are unwilling to be the first to encounter those top teams.

This has led to the battle for playoff rankings, which has entered a fierce state directly after the All-Star Game!

You must know that in previous years, the competition for playoff rankings started in March and April!

And now, all teams have started crazy competition!

The Lakers' schedule in March is terrifying!

They will face the Timberwolves, Spurs, Houston, and Mavericks successively!

Go to Minnesota to play against the Timberwolves first!

Then it’s time to face the top three in Texas!

"I think the Lakers' record will collapse in March. They are not a team that should be ranked among the top four in the Western Conference. Their true position should be between fifth and eighth in the Western Conference." Charles Buck Leigh said on TNT that he was bearish on the Lakers.

"Barkley should keep his mouth shut!" Ewing publicly spoke directly on Twitter! As a member of the Lakers, although he has hardly played in the game, he is the most suitable old man for talking.

"If the Lakers fall out of the top four in the Western Conference, will Kobe still have a chance to win the MVP? Are we going to give the MVP to a team that can't pass the first round?" ESPN's remarks instantly caused a lot of heated discussion.

Kobe's performance so far is indeed miraculous! An average of close to 40+10+10 per game, completely surpassing any player in history.

But personal data has never been the biggest determining factor for MVP.

It can be seen from the fact that the MVP has not been the scoring champion of the year several times. The MVP considers more a player's leadership ability and his influence on the league.

And what best reflects team leadership ability and influence?

It is undoubtedly the record.

MVP is almost never given to players outside the top two in the division, no matter how good his performance is.

The current Lakers are third in the Western Conference, not to mention what they will become after experiencing a series of devilish games in the second half of the league's schedule.

Fifth in the West?

If he falls out of the top four, no matter how good Kobe's statistics are, it won't mean much.

This year's MVP rankings include Kobe, O'Neal, Webber, Carter, McGrady, Garnett, Duncan and Iverson.

In the second half of the schedule, the records of Garnett, Duncan, and Iverson will inevitably take a leap! Their position on the MVP rankings will also advance crazily!

Is Kobe Bryant's MVP position in danger?

"Nana! Call me Daddy!" In a villa next to the beach in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, Kobe held his eldest daughter in his arms, with an indescribably doting smile on his face.

Natalia's big eyes stared at Kobe, her clear eyes full of curiosity.

"Oh, Darling. Nana was only one month old!" Vanessa pretended to be surprised and touched Kobe's forehead.

"Our daughter will definitely be a genius!" Like all parents in the world who hope their children will become successful, Kobe also firmly believes that his children will be the best!

There are many disturbances from the outside world, but there is no way to affect the warm atmosphere of Kobe's small home.

This is why Kobe loves Vanessa and his home.

Home is the place where Kobe can completely relax.

Maybe the moment he leaves here, Kobe will become the legendary key god. But here, Kobe is just an ordinary man who is a new father.

"By the way, MAGIC and Curry's family are coming over this weekend. What should I prepare for food? It's really nerve-wracking for a group of half-grown kids."

The Magician had just returned to the United States from Europe. The restless Magician, after putting the Mamba Academy in Asia on the right track, finally couldn't help but miss life in the United States and decided to return to the United States.

Dell Curry and Zhang Weiping continue to be in charge of Asia's Mamba Academy.

Because the old Curry is going to Asia, Dell Curry officially handed over little Stephen to the care of the Magic family this time.

Now little Stephen is no longer the little baby who followed Kobe with his eyes wide open and made milky sounds.

14-year-old Curry has grown to 1.85 in height!

Although not too tall for these basketball players, he already looks like a great guy!

He is now in 9th grade and about to join high school!

Little Clay is currently in 8th grade.

EJ-chan is in 7th grade.

Curry Jr., EJ and Klay Jr. led Riverdale Junior High School to dominate the entire Los Angeles!

The third primary school exploded this year, winning the junior high school league with 23 wins and 0 losses!

He is famous all over the United States!

Gorgeous play!

The origin of the second generation star!

And the buzz caused by Kobe’s frequent presence on the sidelines!

There is no doubt that Curry is the most popular junior high school student in the United States right now!

"Welcome back! MAGIC!" A group of people gathered around the magician at Kobe's house, toasting and drinking!

"Hey! Kobe, you don't know how rapid the development is over there. Everyone is so excited. Even on weekends, there are always various things that need to be dealt with by me. I don't even have a weekend of my own. I enjoyed it." The magician looked exhausted.

China's development was at its most vigorous in 2003. Everyone was working overtime, as if in order to get rid of poverty and become rich, no one needed to rest.

Magic is in charge of two very large systems, Mamba Sports and Mamba Academy, which undoubtedly makes him feel a little tired.

He still liked to enjoy the leisure and comfortable life of capitalism, but in the end he couldn't help it and chose to return to China.

"Hey, I haven't left yet!" Dell Curry scratched his head with a headache when he heard these words.

Of course, he went there this time just to take over matters related to the Mamba Academy. The operations of Mamba Sports will be left to professionals.

Then everyone laughed and discussed China's development and little Stephen's school choice.

"Little Stephen may become the next Nash." The magician is full of expectations. Curry's current shooting ability is at a BUG level among his peers. Coupled with his own guidance, becoming a US professional basketball player may not be a dream!

That's right, even Magic only thinks that becoming a professional player in the NBA is just a dream.

There are so many talented people in America!

Even if Curry and the three of them are temporarily ahead due to advanced training, when those geniuses fully develop their bodies, the gap will shrink instantly.

Just like this year's chosen son from Akron, his body makes even magicians envious.

"By the way, Kobe. What do you think of MVP?" After three drinks, the Magic asked this question.

It is unrealistic for the Lakers to compete for the championship this year. But winning an MVP will solidify Kobe's historical status.

And once there are no more grains to harvest.

Magic couldn't imagine what the media would look like. Anyway, both myself and Jordan were criticized by them for retiring.

Magic doesn’t want Kobe to be the next GOAT to be criticized by the media for retiring

"MAGIC, for the recent games, I suggest you come and sit on the sidelines."

A glint flashed in Kobe's eyes.

Devil's schedule?

Kobe is looking forward to it
