I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 64 How scary is Kobe who plays seriously

After the first quarter, the Lakers returned to the sidelines. The players on the bench immediately stood up to greet them, clapped hands with the starters one by one, and gave up their seats.

Chu Xiao took a bottle of Gatorade from his teammate, unscrewed the cap and drank it down, then frowned.Because the drink is cold, he doesn't like it very much. This is mainly related to the eating habits in the United States. The drinks they drink are generally cold, sometimes even iced. Almost no one likes to drink hot or warm water.

Chu Xiao decided to bring a thermos to the next competition, soak some goji berries, red dates, etc. in it to supplement energy.

What Kobe drank was the drink he brought with him. It was a sports bottle with his personal information written on it, and there were no other signs of advertising.

Because the NBA game stipulates that only Gatorade's trademark is allowed to appear in beverages, players will face fines if they violate the rules.So every game, NBA officials will provide players with a lot of Gatorade energy drinks, but because of taste or endorsement issues, some players prefer to bring their own drinks, and they can change their own taste at will without feeling tired .

Kobe took a sip of his drink, wiped his sweat with a towel, looked up and saw Chu Xiao frowning, he patted the seat next to him and said, "Come here, sit down!"

At this time, Kobe was like a god in Chu Xiao's eyes. Hearing this, he obediently came over and sat down next to the boss.

"How many points did you score in the first quarter? 0 points and 3 turnovers?" Kobe said, looking up at the statistics desk.

"Yes, all three were mistakes." Chu Xiao lowered her head in shame.

"It's nothing, it's really nothing!" Kobe patted him on the shoulder, "Since you are my fan, you should remember that when I first debuted, facing the Jazz in the playoffs, I made three three nos at the critical moment. Dip."

"I know this. You were also a rookie at the time, but everyone looked down on you because of this, and your teammates were also very desperate, because that ball caused you to be swept out." Chu Xiao still lowered his head.

"That's right, everyone is very disappointed with me, but there is one person who is on my side, and that person is O'Neill, can't you imagine it?"

Kobe smiled and continued, "Although the fat man was furious, he was helpless, because at that time I was the only one who dared to shoot, and even if he failed, he would continue to shoot. He hugged me in the face of the ridicule of thousands of fans on the court and said, don't worry, One day, everyone will scream your name, all you need to do now is remember these people who laughed at you, accept this failure, and remember this lesson. Because failure is not terrible, the terrible thing is not to learn from failure walk out!"

"So, guess what I did?" Bryant said. "I didn't give a damn about the criticism, but we went back to L.A. that night, and I got home, it was three o'clock in the morning. I got around The high school near my house, the cleaners let me in the stadium. I pitched all day, I mean, all day.

I never left the court after the playoffs, I kept shooting, kept shooting, kept shooting, kept going to practice, and it gave me a chance to vent my anger.I'm angry, angry that I let my teammates down and a million fans down.I keep replaying that moment.It was a very critical summer for me, because those three non-sticks made everyone look down on me.

When I see the Jazz on the schedule again, I'm excited.And then beat them as hard as I could, just like I beat the Nets just now, kicked all of them in the ass.You just saw it all, whether it's one person or two or three, I want you to just remember these things.Don't be intimidated by their fierce defense, get on the field!Kick their asses! "

"But I don't have the skills like you!" Chu Xiao finally raised his head and looked at the boss.

"Skills can be practiced slowly, but courage needs to be played game by game. I hope you can face the challenge head-on. Even if you miss a shot or make a mistake, I will not blame you. I will only blame lazy and timid teammates. Bryant stared at him and said, "In the second quarter, all of them knew that I would continue to attack with the ball, so I would continue to double-team, you just need to show up in the right position, and then put the ball in, etc. You are full of confidence, and we will slowly refine the technology."

"Okay!" Chu Xiao agreed, clenched his fists tightly.

In the second quarter, the two sides still did not replace the substitute lineup.

Chu Xiao dribbled the ball to Kobe after half court, and Deron and Wallace immediately rushed over to attack the Lakers.

When the opponent was about to help defend in place, Kobe accelerated to the bottom line, bent his back to the two defenders, then pouted his buttocks, feeling a gap between the two behind him, and stepped back , the cat waist turned out, and found that the opponent's two insiders were stuck outside the penalty area to block Gasol, so he went straight to the layup and made an empty basket, 30-30.

In the next round, Kobe continued to hold the ball and came to the bottom line. This time, the opponent rushed over to block the space with three people, not giving him a chance to turn around and pass the ball. It's oily, very slippery, he can make more than 3 fake moves in an instant, it is very difficult for the defender to judge what he is going to do in a short time.

As a result, Kobe often got out of the gap between the three of them. He still had extra time to see that Chu Xiao and Artest were unguarded. He passed the ball to Chu Xiao again, but he was about to Back on defense.

Without him, it's just a kind of trust.

Seeing the ball coming, Chu Xiao took a deep breath, bent over to catch the ball, stood up suddenly, and stood with her feet shoulder-width apart in the air. She supported the basketball with her right palm, stretched her five fingers naturally, and lifted the ball above her head. Holding the side of the basketball with the left hand to aim, using the index finger of the right hand to straighten the elbow joint, the basketball is like an arrow flying off the string. After drawing a beautiful arc in the air, it "swish" into the net.

"Yeah!" The fans immediately burst into thunderous applause, as if this was the first time he scored after joining the NBA.

But Chu Xiao felt a kind of rebirth-like power from it, and couldn't help lowering his head and clenched his fists, muttering, "Yes! I won't shake anymore."

Next, Kobe made more use of three-threats and holding the ball with his back. He sent a lot of wonderful passes to his teammates in a row, but he didn't score a point. folder.If you continue to double-team, Kobe will continue to distribute the ball. If you only use one person to mark, then he can play singles.

This alone makes the defensive players have to be tense all the time, and they waste too much energy on defense, which in turn affects the fluency of their own offense.

After halftime, the Lakers won the second quarter 34-27. Adding up the two quarters, the Lakers led 64-55 by 9 points.

科比第二节只得到4分，但有8个助攻。且在他的串联下，楚晓5投4中得到10分，加索尔、阿泰斯特等人包揽了剩余的20分。

"This is the black mamba who plays seriously. It's terrifying! He can score points with his super personal ability, and can also send wonderful passes for his teammates. I think the Lakers will win this game!" Awarded to the Lakers.

"Very well, let's play like this in the second half of the game. I will continue to create better opportunities for everyone. Everyone of you can get the ball. This will be a hearty victory." Kobe, as the captain, spoke in the locker room.

"However, Kobe, you will be very tired when you look like this. Occasionally, you should give the ball to Chu Xiao to handle it. Take a breath and don't get hurt." Gasol couldn't help but reminded.

"Okay, old man!" Kobe nodded again and again.

In the second half, after the Lakers played according to the established plan, the Nets gave them a blow with a more aggressive defense.

The opponent used a lot of close-to-man marking and enhanced pressing. Without giving up the double-teaming of Kobe, he increased the defense against other people, and at the same time increased the range of hand movements. As long as the referee does not blow the whistle, there is no problem No matter how extreme they are, even blowing the whistle can't change their savagery.

This is completely a playoff-level defense. The Lakers were caught off guard. Except for Kobe who could maintain his own rhythm, the others seemed uncomfortable.

The Nets took the opportunity to chase points. Their lineup is younger, with an average age of less than 30 years old, which means better physical strength and faster speed.It can be said that they made targeted adjustments at halftime for the Lakers' starting age.

With more than 4 minutes before the third quarter, Chu Xiao moved forward after catching the ball from the baseline, and Deron followed up to defend closely without any surprise. Chu Xiao made two consecutive changes of direction without passing Instead, he was stuck even tighter.

He looked up and saw that his teammates were all caught in their own struggles, muscles stirring muscles, especially the 2.01-meter Wallace, who almost hugged Kobe, causing no one to come forward to respond.

"Okay, let's compete with you again." Chu Xiao lowered his center of gravity, pressed his body against it, and prepared to break through forcefully.

But after carrying it three times, Delong didn't move at all, but he was very tired, panting and sweating profusely.

"No way, why did you run out of strength so quickly?" Chu Xiao was startled, because he clearly remembered that in the first quarter, he could still fight his opponent. Such a sense of exhaustion.

Just when Chu Xiao was flustered and suspicious, Delong took a step forward with his stomach on his stomach. He didn't even think that this step directly pushed his opponent away. He only felt that the opponent's footsteps were weak and his body was unstable. Lost the ball in his hand.

Deron was overjoyed, knowing that he had no strength, he stole the ball, turned around and pressed towards the basket like a tank, layup, and the ball scored.

Chu Xiao was left alone, bending over and panting behind him.
