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

Although the Lakers defeated the Thunder and created an embarrassing "penalty record" for OKC's home fans.

但在这之前的2场比赛，合砍112分的周泽，今晚却仅仅只拿到了45分18篮板7助攻4盖帽3抢断。

He is still 8000 points away from his 46-point milestone.

However, although Zhou Ze's scoring was poor tonight, his shooting percentage was still quite impressive.

21投15中，三分球9中4，罚球9中7，命中率相当可怕。

Apart from missing 5 three-pointers, he only missed 1 shot from other angles.

Kobe scored 31 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals tonight.

After the game, in the Lakers locker room.

Kobe, who was being interviewed by media reporters, half-jokingly criticized Zhou Ze's performance in rebounding tonight.

"Honestly, I'm not very satisfied with Zhou's rebounding tonight. With his size and athleticism, he could have grabbed more rebounds. Of course, Zhou's luck was a bit off tonight, but who told him to treat us less?"

Facing the Thunder's weak inside line, Zhou Ze didn't even get 20 rebounds tonight.

It really shouldn’t!

"Yes, I should really reflect on my desire for rebounds." When Kobe pointed the "spearhead" at him, Zhou Ze said seriously.

"OMG!"

"Dude, are you serious?"

This made the media reporters who were interviewing Zhou Ze hold their heads in their hands.

"Zhou, if you think 18 rebounds are not enough, how are other inside players in the league going to survive?" The Lakers' team reporter burst out laughing.

"By the way, Zhou. Would you consider reaching your 8000-point milestone... in the next game, against the Orlando Magic?" the reporter asked again.

The next game will be on December 12th, the day after tomorrow.

"It depends on the team's needs."

"If the team needs me to step up and score, I will do it!"

"My personal honor is insignificant compared to the team's victory."

Zhou Ze once again went against his little conscience and spoke righteously.

Why do we talk about a little conscience?

To be honest, Zhou Ze is indeed a man who puts winning the game first.

The second is Zhou’s personal honor.

"Zhou, Dwight is a strong contender for DPOY this season. Have you thought of any solution for this?" a reporter asked.

The voice just fell.

In the entire Lakers locker room, everyone was filled with black question marks, looking at the reporters in front of them as if they were idiots.

"what?"

"Hey man, you new here?"

Lamar Odom joked.

"Sorry, sorry, he is really new here." At this time, one of his colleagues first glared at the new reporter, and then quickly apologized to everyone.

This newly graduated white female reporter felt very aggrieved.

Although I don't know much about the NBA, I have done a lot of work regarding this season.

Dwight Howard is indeed the strongest contender for DPOY this year.

Currently, betting companies are giving odds for "DPOY".

NO.1: Dwight Howard.

NO.2: LeBron James.

NO.3: Dwyane Wade.

NO.4: Zhou Ze.

Uh!

That's right.

Zhou Ze's odds for DPOY are only fourth. Although his block and steal statistics are extremely impressive, the Lakers' defense in November was not good. Otherwise, how could there be 11 buzzer-beaters in a single month? This greatly hindered Zhou Ze's performance.

Looking at the current DPOY odds, in fact, in the 08-09 season, the top three DPOY votes and first choice rates were indeed Howard (first choice rate 88.24%), James (first choice rate 3.36%), and Wade (first choice rate 2.52%).

What this intern white female reporter didn't know was that Zhou Ze played against Dwight Howard like it was a piece of cake.

...

...

"WTF!"

"I can't guard him?"

"That was last year. Don't always look at people with the same old eyes."

"I will never let Zhou score 46 points on our home court!"

Dwight Howard also made bold statements before the game.

Although Howard was played around by Zhou Ze in the first three seasons, he has reached the peak of his career this season.

He averaged 20.6 points, 13.8 rebounds, 2.9 blocks and 1.0 steal per game.

More and more fans believe that Howard is the best center in the NBA.

As for Yao Ming, although he always managed to bully Howard and his stats were impressive, averaging 25 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks per game, while shooting 38% from three-point range, the Rockets' lineup was truly awful, and they still couldn't find anyone who could pass the ball to Yao Ming.

What's more, Ron Artest was intercepted by the Lakers, and the Rockets are likely to be eliminated in the first round again this season.

Zhou Ze vs. Dwight Howard!

A showdown between the league's strongest men!

The game was extremely popular, but due to Andrew Byram's previous "missing person notice", many fans thought that Howard would follow suit.

When Howard learned about this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger.

Whether Zhou Ze can score 46 points in front of the strongest contender for DPOY in the Orlando Magic's home court has also become a topic of conversation among many fans.

不 ...

To be precise, even NBA players got involved.

"Even though he's a super scorer, even if God came, it's impossible for him to explode for so many games in a row." - McGrady.

"What Zhou is doing is crazy, anything is possible!" - Kevin Garnett

"No one can do it except Zhou..." - Carmelo Anthony

"You know, I have a great relationship with Cho, a guy with tons of energy, and he's at the top of my list of players I want to work with." - LeBron James

"No problem!" - Kobe Bryant.

"If he wants to, he can definitely do it." - Yao Ming

"If it's 60 points in a single game, it might be a little difficult for him." - Gilbert Arenas

Most NBA players, when interviewed by Zhou Ze, believed that he could do it.

It even includes the "missing person" - Andrew Byram.

"He's going to do it. As long as he shoots a lot of three-pointers, 46 points won't be a problem for him."

Although Byram's words were a bit sour, he did not deny Zhou Ze's scoring explosiveness; in addition, he might be one of the few NBA players who supported Zhou Ze's victory over Howard from the bottom of his heart.

after all...

His last avoidance of battle caused his reputation to decline.

When playing away games, some fans will even hold up a "Missing Person Notice".

If Zhou Ze can beat Howard and reach that damn 8000-point milestone, he can divert a lot of firepower for himself.

The night before the game.

Dwight Howard came to the rooftop of the villa, and the moon was bright in the sky.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Howard's face was ferocious, his big hands twitching constantly, and he said angrily: "Zhou...Zhou...Zhou Ze, you damn bastard, you can't bully me."

After a crescent moon rising into the sky, Howard's emotions finally stabilized and he could sleep soundly.
