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

Chapter 505: Surpassing 93 Jordan, the first in NBA history! Under the high-intensity defense, the scores of both sides were very low.

However, fewer goals does not necessarily mean that the game is less entertaining.

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

Fans in front of the TV could faintly hear the sound of muscles colliding through the screen.

The solid defense stimulates the nerves of every fan.

In the United States alone, the number of viewers exceeded 3000 million.

Moreover, the ratings for the game continue to climb, showing no signs of stopping.

"when!"

Marc Gasol missed a three-pointer.

Kevin Garnett got the defensive rebound while Perkins and Zhou Ze were struggling.

The Celtics made a fast break, Kobe helped Artest with assisting defense and knocked the basketball out of Ray Allen's hand.

"OMG!"

"I felt like there was a suffocating smell in every corner of the arena."

"yes..."

"The whole stadium is like the Colosseum in ancient Rome."

...

...

The first quarter of the game is over.

23 to 24, the Lakers lead by 1 points.

After the start of the second quarter, the Celtics missed shots one after another, but on the other hand, Zhou Ze and Kobe of the Lakers seemed to gradually adapt to the Celtics' defensive intensity.

Zhou Ze caught the ball in the high post, his first step explosive, blocking half of Garnett's body. His ball-guard continued his relentless drive, dribbling past Garnett. Garnett gritted his teeth and fought back, but Zhou Ze still crushed him to the basket. He forced himself to use his broad, powerful body to push Garnett away, then, with a swish, leapt up again.

Garnett raised his long arms high, and there was a tendency for him to press down in the air, but Zhou Ze, who reached the highest point first, withstood the confrontation again, stretched his arms, and dribbled the ball into the basket, 23 to 28.

Zhou Ze received the ball in the low post, deep, as Pierce came to help. Zhou Ze didn't rush the ball, waiting until he had completely drawn Pierce to him before passing. Ron Artest, receiving the pass, remained remarkably calm as Ray Allen's rotation and help defense continued, passing it to Kobe at the top of the key.

After Kobe received the ball, he made a long two-pointer with a "swish".

23比30，此时第二节进行到了2分21秒，湖人打了一波6比0的小高潮，将领先优势拉开到了7分。

Seeing that something was wrong, Rivers quickly requested a timeout.

...

...

"Coach Zhang, the Lakers' positional offense has finally recovered."

"Well, it can be seen that Aze and Kobe have already adapted to this kind of confrontation."

"But the Celtics' Big Three haven't been able to breathe yet under this level of defense."

Coach Zhang and Su Qun from the Tianchao Sports Studio analyzed the current situation of the game.

Simply put, although the Big Three's offense is very strong, there is still a gap compared to the Lakers' purple and gold elbows.

After the pause.

The core players of both teams, the Celtics' Big Three and the Purple and Gold's two elbows all remained on the court, but the other players carried out normal player rotations.

"Snapped!"

Celtics substitute Eddie House stole the ball from PJ Tucker and made a successful layup in the counterattack.

Immediately afterwards, Pierce and Garnett's two pick-and-rolls were all successful.

PJ Tucker still had some issues facing the experienced Pierce. On one occasion, he failed to make up for the deficit in time, allowing Pierce to score with a jump shot. The other time, after switching defense, PJ Tucker misjudged Garnett, expecting him to follow through, but Garnett actually caught the ball from the outside and shot a powerful jumper.

The Celtics' offense has recovered.

But the Lakers' offense showed no signs of stopping.

Kobe challenged Ray Allen one-on-one, used his body to crush him, and then faced Garnett's defense and scored a layup.

Zhou Ze attacked from a high position facing the basket and successfully determined that Big Baby Glen Davis was a fake help defender. He accelerated to full speed, crushed Garnett, forced a layup and made an and-one.

"when!"

The free throw was missed, 34 to 41.

At this time, there were 5 minutes left before the end of the first half.

"Zhou, he's tired," said Kenny Smith in the TNT studio.

"Oh, dear Mr. Kenny, how did you find out?" Buckley asked with a smile.

"In the week of this season, his free throw percentage has increased to 82%, which is a very high percentage among inside players. In addition, even if he missed the free throw, it would not be so short," said Kenny Smith.

Tired?

Of course I’m tired!

Zhou Ze didn't rest in the first quarter and played for 20 minutes straight. Moreover, he was in charge of both offense and defense. How could he not be tired?

However, Zhou Ze could still withstand this level of fatigue.

But the Zen Master didn't want to take any risks, especially since they were still ahead in the score.

The Phil Jackson replaced Chris Webber and replaced Birdman with JaVale McGee.

Webber's performance was relatively stable after he came on the court, but JaVale McGee was taught a lesson by Garnett.

McGee's habit of making random moves was caught, resulting in two consecutive defensive fouls.

This also gave the Celtics the opportunity to tie the score.

McGee, feeling guilty, held his head in his hands, feeling very upset.

But soon, Pierce and Garnett connected in an alley-oop and dunked directly over McGee's head.

Before the end of the first half, neither Zhou Ze nor Kobe returned to the court and were left to rest on the bench by the Phil Jackson.

Halftime is over.

50 to 48, the Lakers were 2 points behind.

"Relax, buddy, don't be nervous." Zhou Ze smiled and touched McGee's head.

McGee, whose face was wrinkled into an awkward shape, finally forced out an ugly smile.

"JaVale, let's go dunk over KG when we get on the court later!" Zhou Ze said half-jokingly.

McGee, who was repeatedly fouled on defense by Garnett and dunked on by an alley-oop, suddenly widened his eyes and looked eager after hearing Zhou Ze's words.

I blurted out subconsciously: "Can you really do that?"

"Of course!" Before Zhou Ze could speak, Odom, the glue of the team, spoke first.

"Yeah, that guy KG likes to scare kids...JaVale, you don't have to be afraid of him," said Derek Fisher.

"Ah."

"Ah."

McGee's mood immediately improved a lot with the comfort of a group of veteran Lakers players.

...

...

on the other hand.

"Ms. Jenny, the ratings for tonight's game are out. Can you guess what it is?" A staff member came up to Jenny Buss with a smile on his face and said flatteringly.

At this moment, Jeanie Buss is not the gentle old aunt who helps Zhou Ze put on the gold necklace.

Jeanie Buss glared at the staff member who was keeping her in suspense.

"It has reached 3300 million, surpassing the 93 Bulls led by Michael"

"That means the ratings for tonight's game are already ranked second in the NBA."

After the staff member finished speaking, Jeanie Buss couldn't help but stand up from her seat, her face full of shock.

The team’s high ratings mean that more and more platforms will spend money to buy the broadcasting rights.

This is an important source of income for the team.

Jeanie Buss glanced toward the Lakers' home locker room and thought to herself, "Oh, it's a pity I'm a little old."
