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

104 is better than 108!

At the end of the game, the Hornets beat the Lakers by 4 points.

Chris Paul, who defeated the Lakers for the first time in his career, raised his hands and listened to the cheers of the fans at the moment the final whistle sounded.

In this game, Paul overcame his "inner demon version 2.0" and scored a near triple-double of 16 points, 12 assists, 8 rebounds and 3 steals, defeating the Lakers who were short of players.

Zhou Ze, who was on the sidelines with his 6th foul, looked at him expressionlessly.

Ok!

This is also the first tragic milestone in Zhou Ze's career!

That's right.

Among so many milestones, only this one ended in defeat.

"Huh, this guy has so many little tricks." Rajon Rondo said with disdain.

"Who said it wasn't?" Nate Robinson gritted his teeth and nodded.

"When we meet him in the playoffs, we must teach him a lesson," said PJ Tucker.

"Of course, I believe he will never forget it." Zhou Ze said in a deep voice.

...

...

Paul defeats Zhou Ze for the first time in his career!

"Zhou Ze fouled out, Lakers lost to Hornets!"

"Zhou Ze reaches a milestone for the first time in his career!"

"Surpassing LeBron James and leading the 7000-point milestone!"

When will Zhou Ze be able to completely surpass James!

After the game!

Paul, who defeated Zhou Ze, was highly praised by the media, who said that this game was a preview of the Western Conference semifinals.

Chris Paul has a good chance of defeating the defending champion Lakers in the Western Conference Finals and successfully reaching the Western Conference Finals floor he has always dreamed of.

Well...

Although this sounds unreliable, the Lakers, who lead the league, are really likely to meet the Hornets, who are currently fourth in the Western Conference, in the second round.

In addition, there is discussion about Zhou Ze vs. James.

最年轻的3000分先生，詹姆斯的20岁零62天；其次是周泽的20岁172天。

最年轻的4000分先生，周泽的20岁293天；其次是詹姆斯的20岁318天。

最年轻的5000分先生，詹姆斯的21岁22天，其次是周泽的21岁114天。

最年轻的6000分先生，詹姆斯21岁89天，其次是周泽的21岁240天。

最年轻的7000分先生，周泽21岁306天，其次是詹姆斯的21岁358天。

but...

The youngest player to score 8000 points is definitely James at the age of 22 years and 74 days.

After all, this season has ended, and when the new season starts, Zhou Ze will start at the age of 22 and 120+.

If Zhou Ze wants to completely dominate the Youngest Mr. title, he will probably have to reach 10000 points.

...

...

Of course, this game was not without gain.

[Special Reward (Youngest Mr. 7000 Points): 1000 Peak Value Points]

Peak Value: 2/240

This time, Zhou Ze did not perform ten consecutive draws, but instead consumed 2000 peak points to be promoted to [First Pass Master].

【Master of One Pass (Silver)】Function Introduction:

1. After grabbing the defensive rebound, the passing accuracy is greatly improved.

2. Improve passing accuracy under interference.

3. To upgrade to the next stage, 10000 peak points are required.

In the game against the Hornets, Zhou Ze found that his first pass needed improvement; when the referee's whistle was off, the opposing players would physically interfere in order to limit his first pass. For example, the accuracy of the pass would indeed drop a lot after an arm collision.

Regarding the issue of penalties, the Lakers are also actively communicating with the league's top management.

The Lakers' request is simple. The league cannot forcibly weaken Zhou Ze just because he is too strong.

Zhou Ze's current poor treatment on the defensive end is almost comparable to that of O'Neal during his OK period, but Zhou Ze's finishing touch is much worse than that of peak O'Neal.

...

...

The time came to April 2008, 4, the Lakers' 10th game of the season and the fourth to last game.

The opponent is the Cleveland Cavaliers led by LeBron James.

James was rested in this game.

The team's backcourt consists of Delonte West and Daniel Gibson.

Zhou Ze, with his camera memory, clearly remembered Daniel Gibson breaking his own three-point shooting record in this year's All-Star Rookie Challenge. He also made some overconfident remarks after the game.

Zhou Ze naturally took special care of him and used physical methods to calm him down.

Zhou Ze used the tactics of calling out names to force Daniel Gibson to switch defense.

Gibson, who is 188cm tall and weighs 86kg, did splits like a gymnast to increase his grip in order to defend against Zhou Ze.

But Zhou Ze still crushed them easily.

Less than 3 minutes into the game, he made 4 consecutive back-to-the-basket shots from near the three-point line. Once, he pushed Gibson directly to the basket, attracted Big Z's backup defense, and then passed the ball to Byram under the basket, who almost scored a dunk.

He knocked Gibson over once, and the other players of the Cavaliers quickly made up for the foul.

He pushed Gibson to less than 2 feet, or about 4 meter, from the basket twice and made a hook shot.

However, Gibson's nightmare was not over.

After seven or eight rounds, Zhou Ze continued to use the tactic of calling out names.

But the Cavaliers also adjusted their defensive strategy. After Zhou Ze arrived at the paint area, Zhou Ze, as a forward, came over to double-team him, forcing him to pass the ball.

But Zhou Ze's advancement speed is too fast...

There was no time for James to double-team him before he was pushed to the vicinity of the reasonable collision zone.

At 7 minutes and 11 seconds in the first quarter, Zhou Ze, who had already made 8 of 8 shots, encountered the three-man defense of Big Z, James and Gibson. However, Zhou Ze did not force his way up to the basket. Instead, he shook his shoulders continuously and suddenly turned over and leaned back.

With a "swish", the basketball hit the target.

"Fuck!"

"WTF!"

The Cavaliers' home fans couldn't help but start cursing.

At this time, James complained to the referee that Zhou Ze's back-to-the-basket shot lasted more than 5 seconds.

The puppet coach of the Cavaliers also went to the referee on the scene to speak and strongly support James.

"what?"

"Five seconds behind the back?"

Zhou Ze's face was full of disdain.

Although the NBA has a 5-second post-up rule designed for "Mark Jackson", post-up singles cannot exceed 5 seconds.

But... please...

It takes me 86 seconds to post up a small guard weighing 5kg?

In order to ease the emotions of the Cavaliers players, the referee cooperated very well and checked the replay.

From the time Zhou Ze turned his back to the basket until he made the shot, it took a total of 4.2 seconds, and it took only 3.7 seconds for the basketball to leave his fingers.

In other words, it only takes Zhou Ze about 3.5 seconds to push Danger Gibson to the basket from near the three-point line.

Of course, there is a prerequisite here, that is, Daniel Gibson cannot fall to the ground during this process.

...

...

At 9 minutes and 41 seconds in the first quarter, the Cavaliers grabbed a defensive rebound and started the offense-defense transition.

Zhou Ze faced Daniel Gibson outside the three-point line, who had received a pass from James. When the latter saw Zhou Ze coming, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​shooting and wanted to pass the ball.

"Rookie, even if I ask you to shoot, you won't be able to make the shot. Believe it or not?" Zhou Ze put his hands behind his back and said with a contemptuous tone.
