As a Kobe hater, he was actually teammates with Kobe!

After Zhou Ze fell to the low post, Kobe used his containment power and ran without the ball to tear apart the Bobcats' defense.

With the help of Kwame Brown's screen, Kobe moved from the right to the left. Adam Morrison, who was the team's point guard tonight and the third pick in 06, was caught in Kwame Brown's pick-and-roll. Seeing that Kobe was open, the 218cm tall Brezec had to switch defense in front of Kobe and take a half-circle to prevent Kobe from catching the ball.

At this moment, the details of the offense and defense on the court are as follows:

Zhou Ze fell into the low post on the left wing. In addition to the top defense of Gerald Wallace, there was also the help defense of Okafor. Okafor chose a good help defense position. He could switch to a "double-team" the moment Zhou Ze passed the ball to Wallace. If Zhou Ze passed the ball to the corner, Okafor could promptly defend PJ Tucker, who was not very accurate in three-pointers.

Seeing Zhou Ze's predicament, Kobe made aggressive off-ball runs to the high left wing where Zhou Ze was, switching defense. This gave Kwame Brown, who was standing at the free throw line, the opportunity to swerve down the court and score.

With a "whoosh", Zhou Ze passed the ball to Kwame Brown, a man whose straight-line speed is faster than Kevin Garnett, and the rookie Adam Morrison.

For a moment, my mind was confused.

He wanted to defend Kobe and Kwame Brown at the same time, and he was spinning in circles.

This is both a must and a must feature...

Hmm~ looks like a little fairy.

With a "boom!", Kwame Brown shot high above the basket and completed a slam dunk.

47 to 40, the Lakers led by 7 points.

Kwame Brown, who had made a successful dunk, noticed Zhou Ze's eyes while celebrating with him by high-fiving.

Kwame Brown understood what he meant, and as he passed by Jordan on his way back to defense, he raised his arms and flexed his biceps.

Although he didn't say anything, Danzi understood immediately. Damn bastard, he actually showed off in front of me. Danzi was so angry that he bit the gum in his mouth hard.

...

...

Although the Bobcats' overall strength is not as good as the Lakers, they played very tenaciously.

Raymond Felton used the pick-and-roll to force his way to the basket. Before the layup, he actively sought confrontation and leaned against Zhou Ze. Zhou Ze really did not actively exert force, but his former college teammate Felton actually tried to touch him, and the referee blew the whistle.

After making both free throws, the score was 51 to 44.

Zhou Ze played a single play in the low post, and after pushing Gerald Wallace back a big step, he was double-teamed.

Zhou Ze took advantage of Kobe's off-ball situation and passed the ball to Kwame Brown who was following him. He tried to do the same thing, but it didn't work out. "Snap!" Gerald Wallace, who was defending, turned around quickly and blocked Kwame Brown's dunk.

This is the flexibility of a forward. Not to mention heavy centers like Yao Ming and O'Neal, even Zhou Ze would find it difficult to turn around, jump, and deliver an accurate block in such a short time.

Kwame Brown stumbled after being blocked, and Gerald Wallace was also somewhat off balance. At this time, Zhou Ze and Okafor on the other side of the basket jumped up to fight for the ball.

Both players were 208cm tall barefoot, but the difference in rebound speed was too great. With a "snap!", Okafor saw a big hand grab the rebound first.

After landing, Okafor quickly raised his hand. The future Elvis Presley on the side was also watching eagerly, ready to block at any time. Zhou Ze squatted with strength, and blew the ball on the spot, pretending to force a move, but actually passed it to Kwame Brown.

After receiving the ball, the latter shot the ball off the backboard over Elvis Gerald Wallace.

63 to 58, the Lakers still hold a 5-point lead with 2 minutes left in the third quarter.

Judging from the scores of both sides, the defensive intensity tonight was very high. The Bobcats showed their focus on the playoffs, even though the team has not played in the playoffs since its establishment in 04.

...

...

"Michael, Kwame stepped in shit tonight. He doesn't have the scoring ability to do that." On the Bobcats bench, the team's head coach Bernie Bickerstaff said.

Danzi nodded.

Kwame Brown really played above and beyond tonight, even his usual butter hands "disappeared".

One of Kwame Brown's shortcomings on the offensive end is that he has short fingers, just like Kobe.

But the difference is that Kobe only caught the ball with one hand, not as cool as McGrady, nor as domineering as Zhou Ze.

But there is no such thing as not being able to catch the ball.

On the other hand, Adam Morrison, the third overall pick he personally selected as the Bobcats' junior owner, was as tender as tofu.

At the end of the first three quarters, the score was 69 to 63. The tenacious Bobcats did not allow the Lakers to widen the gap.

The fourth quarter began with the substitutes of both teams facing off.

As a "half-step physical strength monster", Zhou Ze led the substitute lineup to continue the battle.

Adam Morrison is responsible for defending Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze first received the ball in the corner, then faced Adam Morrison who was a beat slower, and hit a three-pointer, 72 to 63!

"What's wrong with this little bastard? How come Adam can't keep up with his starting speed?" Danzi, who was sitting on the Bobcats' bench, frowned, looking very puzzled.

"Not as bad as... Zhou. Although his agility and athleticism are top-notch among the 4 position, his acceleration is definitely not as good as our Adam Morrison."

"Adam, he is a rookie after all. Facing Rajon Rondo's breakthrough pass, he may seem a little nervous," said the Bobcats coach.

"But...that guy with the shoe-horn face is also a rookie this year." Danzi said with a somewhat ugly expression.

As the two said, Zhou Ze's acceleration ability is not as good as Adam Morrison's, but as a rookie, Adam Morrison often appears... confused and bewildered in complex defenses.

"who I am..."

"Where am I?"

Of course, this is a common problem for rookies.

Zhou Ze received another Rondo pass in the corner. This time, Adam Morrison followed closely, not giving Zhou Ze any space to shoot. However, Zhou Ze faked a shot, knocked him away, and then drove to the basket, causing a defensive foul. He made both free throws, 2-74!

"Fool!"

"This idiot was actually fooled by such a fake move."

"You've already cornered him, why did you jump?"

Danzi, who was on the bench, was furious.

Bobcats backup guard Matt Carroll fooled Shannon Brown with a curling cut, drove to the basket, and challenged Zhou Ze's defense in the air.

Zhou Ze failed in the rock-paper-scissors game and failed to block the 198cm tall Matt Carroll, who made a layup.

There's nothing you can do. Zhou Ze's shot blocking awareness is really lackluster.

74 to 65, the Bobcats finally scored in the fourth quarter. Danzi, who came to supervise the game in person, had a slightly better expression on his face.

After receiving the ball at the baseline, Rajon Rondo quickly pushed for a fast break. With the help of Zhou Ze's off-ball control, he made a behind-the-back layup, making the score 76 to 65.

Immediately afterwards, Rajon Rondo and Shannon Brown suddenly double-teamed the ball handler, stealing the ball. Zhou Ze sprinted towards the basket. Adam Morrison gritted his teeth and ran relentlessly. It was clear he was no longer able to defend, but having been repeatedly bullied by Zhou Ze, he chose to foul and pull. However, Zhou Ze quickly collected the ball and suddenly exerted force, breaking through the restraints with explosive power, and-one!!!

78 to 65, if the free throws were made, it would be 79 to 65. In just 3 minutes, the stalemate situation became clearer.

"Fuck!"

"You idiot!"

"This is also a waste of foul opportunities!"

Danzi, who was sitting on the bench, was cursing.

Zhou Ze missed the free throw.

But the basketball fell right into Kwame Brown's area, who grabbed the rebound and passed it back to Zhou Ze who retreated outside the three-point line.

Adam Morrison, the third overall pick personally selected by Danzi, wanted to make amends and pounced on Zhou Ze at lightning speed.

After receiving the ball, Zhou Ze pretended to squat down to accumulate strength. After Adam Morrison jumped into his cylindrical area, he jumped up and took a three-pointer.

"Beep!" The referee whistle sounded.

3 point foul!

Do not!

A three-pointer hit the backboard.

3+1!!!

"Fuck!"

"Fuck!"

"WTF!"

Danzi, who was on the bench, saw Zhou Ze, who failed to score 2+1, complete a 3+1 at this time. He was furious and started cursing on the bench.

Obviously, this 3+1 that made Danzi curse will definitely appear in Zhou Ze's career highlights.
