Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 119 Kobe Bryant is an Iron Man, He Can't Run to Death!
52 wins and 3 losses! !

Look, the Lakers have only lost three games.

How far is it from the Bulls record of 72 wins and 10 losses?
Who can stop the Lakers from setting a new record in the regular season?

In March, the league's official strength list was announced, and the Lakers still ranked first.

However, the news media didn't bother to report, but put the headline of the title on the word "block".

In March, the first game of the Lakers, the eyes of league teams and fans fell on the Trail Blazers.

After all, as the team with the highest salary this season, it now has the second record in the league's regular season, giving the Lakers their first regular season defeat. This team has the strength to challenge the Lakers.

However, the Trail Blazers still lost the matchup with the Lakers.

The score was 102 to 99! !
The score is so close, however, to lose is to lose.

The Trail Blazers have many problems. The first is the running-in problem. Getting Pippen and Smith, two All-Star outsiders, the instruction manual is a problem.

The second problem, the old-fashioned problem, the Blazers' point guard problem, still hasn't been resolved.

The third question is the aging of the center. Sabonis is almost 36 years old.

Fighting with the 28-year-old O'Neill, how much oil is there?
The fourth question, Pippen is old.

He can't talk about the problems of the Trail Blazers. It is obviously unrealistic to use superstars to solve the above problems.

Fifth question?
Coach Dunleavy is overrated.

Putting O'Neal, Bunch Wells, etc. without training, knowing that Sabonis can't hold on, he still has no idea of ​​​​training rookies.

However, if O'Neal is trained like Kobe, the Trail Blazers may not hold a good hand and won't win a championship.

Old-school coaches don't like to use rookies. They feel that they are unreliable and need to grow slowly.

It's just, if you don't cultivate, what will he use to grow?

The Blazers, who had a lot of problems, met the Lakers who talked about talent and had been working together for a year.

The Trail Blazers are always short of breath.

No X factor, no big breakouts, the Blazers are too sweet to win against this talented Lakers team.

You said blacksmithing is also a talent?

That's right.

Blacksmithing is also a talent.

At the critical moment, the Blacksmith team at least didn't panic when shooting.

Don't ask, just ask too much. If you don't have expectations in your heart, you won't be too disappointed.

Just focus on the next shot.

The psychological quality is polished and carried.

Whoever knows.

……

May 3, Vancouver.

You can tell by the name that the Grizzlies are here to make up the numbers.

Playing against the Lakers is not a question of whether to lose or not, but how much to lose.

The Grizzlies know it too.

I didn't think about beating the Lakers or anything, but played an exhibition game with the Lakers.

The game is not monotonous, because there is no defense at all.

How beautiful the attack is, how gorgeous, how handsome, how come!
Seeing the Grizzlies, for the sake of being so smart, Li Mu used more rotations to play.

Manu Ginobili's monster knife is impressive, with extremely sharp European steps, like a snake, getting into the penalty area and easily sending the basketball into the basket.

Even with the rotation, the Grizzlies couldn't hold their heads up at all.

Li Mu wanted to release the life, but the other party was too weak to survive.

With a score of 130 to 105, the Lakers beat the Grizzlies by 25 points.

January 3, Los Angeles, Staples Center Arena.

The Lakers continued to laugh at a victory.

The opponent's Clippers.

This team and the Lakers claim to be in the same city. Everyone knows that he is here to study with the prince.

The score was 125-85.

A 40-point victory, the Lakers will not show mercy to this team, how to arrange it no matter how miserable it is.

On April 3, at the Staples Center Arena.

The Lakers finally met a decent opponent, the Pacers, the top Pacers in the East, came to challenge.

In other words, the Pacers have now lost 12 games, and against the Lakers, it is a bit false to call it the top game.

However, the focus is still quite adequate.

After a simple appearance and warm-up, the starting lineups of both sides were also displayed on the big screen in the arena.

The Lakers started with 5 players, Billups, Kobe, Bowen, Big Ben, O'Neal.

Pacers Five Tigers, Mark Jackson, Reggie Miller, Jalen Rose, Dale Davis, Rick Schmitz.

On the commentary stage, TNT radio commentator Mike Breen laughed, "The Pacers' old boy team from last season is finally, finally, not so old.

Chris Mullin left for the Cavaliers.

He was replaced by Jaylen Rose, and the other four elders are still in the 'most already'.

It still looks old, but it's much cleaner. "

beep~~
With the sound of the referee's whistle, the basketball was thrown high into the sky, and the game began with a scrimmage.

O'Neal VS Schmitz! !

There is height in the jump ball, that is incense.

O'Neal is too fat to enjoy the benefits of explosive power. Schmitz, who is 2 meters tall, puts the basketball into the hands of Mark Jackson.

The Pacers took the lead in the first round, and Jackson went up the court and steadily delivered the basketball to Schmitz.

Catch the ball, jump up, shoot...

Boom-!
Schmitz shot from the free throw line, the most comfortable position, and the iron went wide.

Big Ben grabbed the rebound, quickly passed the ball to Billups, dribbled a step, pushed with both hands, and a long pass from the quarterback came.

Kobe is like a sharp sword, rushing to the frontcourt, catching the ball, taking a dribble, jumping up, turning 180 degrees in the air and buckling back.

Clang.

The counterattack quickly scored two points.

2 to 0! !
Off the court, Larry Bird had some headaches.

The Lakers made it clear that they rushed up to fight for their physical talent and played a fast-paced offense.

The Pacers have old arms and legs, and they can't stand up to playing like this.

He went into the arena and suppressed the rhythm.

Take your time, we are not in a hurry.

Mark Jackson slowly pushed forward, butt against Billups in the frontcourt.

In other words, except that Barkley likes to use his butt to hug people.

This person also likes to push people with his butt.

Of course, Jackson prefers to pass the ball to the archer.

Reggie Miller ran back, and with the cover of his teammates, he threw off Kobe's defense and reached out to catch the ball.

Three-point jump shot shot...

Swish-!
3 to 2! !
As an evergreen tree in the league, Reggie Miller is 35 years old and still maintains a strong offensive firepower this season, averaging 18 points and 2 assists per game.

It's just that Miller is strong.

After only watching two rounds, Li Mu dared to conclude that this Pacers team was no threat.

Like last season, the Pacers haven't improved much.

Still a shooting-winning team.

Then again, Larry Bird is the worst pitcher, the kind that can be pretended to be.

To coach a team, as a head coach, it is obviously strange not to follow the set of shooting to win.

After understanding the Pacers' tactics, Li Mu let the Lakers shrink the penalty area and forced the Pacers to shoot away from the basket.

Don't they like to play off the ball?

Li Mu's copying of homework also made Kobe play off the ball.

In the end, whoever can't run will be the first.

Li Mu looked at Kobe, then at Reggie Miller, and felt that the game was stable.

Don't ask, if you ask, Kobe is an iron man and can't run to death.
