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

Chapter 654: 23 consecutive wins! The second longest winning streak in history!

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led their opponents by 18 points.

In the second quarter, Iverson returned to his peak form, scoring 8 points with a combination of breakthroughs and shots. By the end of the first half, he had scored 14 points.

It is worth mentioning that when Iverson faced Zhou Ze, the current No. 1 player in the NBA and recognized as the best power forward in NBA history, he used the butterfly step to continuously adjust Zhou Ze's center of gravity, and finally, he shot against Zhou Ze's long arms.

This goal made Zhou Ze couldn't help but applaud.

At halftime, the Lakers' lead was only 22 points. Firstly, the 76ers' outside shooting got better in the second quarter, with Andre Iguodala hitting 3 of 2 three-pointers. Secondly, the Lakers' outside shooting was poor, hitting 9 of 2 three-pointers in the quarter.

In the second half of the game, the Philadelphia 76ers' head coach wanted to keep Allen Iverson, who was in good form tonight, on the court, but he was running out of energy, so he decided to keep him on the bench for a while. Well, what happened?

Andrew Byram, one of the top two centers in the Eastern Conference, was directly mentioned by Zhou Ze three times in a row.

In the first low-post single play, Zhou Ze didn't use any techniques, he just leaned in. Byram, who looked very big, was like a rag doll at this moment, being shaken back step by step by Zhou Ze. Zhou Ze, who arched to the basket, flipped over and completed a slam dunk.

In order to block Zhou Ze's dunk, Byram pulled when he was twisted away, but it not only did it not have any effect, but Zhou Ze also made it a 2+1.

The second and third times, Zhou Ze initiated a one-on-one challenge from a high position, especially the third time. Zhou Ze first broke through on the right, and suddenly changed direction in front of his body, knocking Byram directly to the ground.

Byram, who was a little excited, also wanted to save face on the offensive end, but facing Zhou Ze's defense, he first committed a second dribbling violation with the ball, and then committed a foul by dribbling with the ball.

Not only that, Byram jumped up to block Kobe's cut-in shots twice in a row, but he failed to maintain his balance and was fouled both times.

finally...

Byram, who had only two fouls in the first half, received his fifth foul less than five minutes into the third quarter and had to leave the court early. The Lakers took the opportunity to expand the score.

By the time Iverson had almost recovered his strength, the difference between the two sides had reached 34 points.

Naturally, there was no need for Iverson to play.

...

...

The whole game is over.

130 is better than 99!

The Lakers eventually defeated the Philadelphia 31ers with a 76-point lead and won their 20th consecutive game in a single season.

This is also the third longest winning streak in NBA history.

at the same time...

This was also the last time Kobe and Iverson faced each other in the NBA.

After the game, Iverson and Kobe hugged each other for a long time.

Afterwards, Zhou Ze asked Kobe curiously what the two of them had said to each other, but Kobe refused to say anything.

"Kobe, most of the guys who entered the NBA at the same time as you have retired now, right?" Zhou Ze asked in a mean way.

"Get lost." Kobe said angrily, "I'm still young!"

Although Kobe's endurance and anti-aging abilities cannot be compared with Danzi's, they are indeed a level higher than those of stars of the same period.

Among the four shooting guards, Iverson, the oldest, is on the verge of retirement.

The two brothers with the best physical talents...

Vince Carter, currently the Magic's third-in-command, has seen his scoring average drop to 18 points per game.

Tracy McGrady, after moving from the Rockets to the Boston Celtics, has experienced a second spring, and his personal character and playing style have also entered a truly mature period, but he has been plagued by injuries this season, but he is currently averaging 20 points per game.

Of the four great shooting guards, the only one who is still at his peak is Kobe Bryant. He can still score 30.5 points this season and shows no signs of aging.

...

...

The Los Angeles Lakers' winning streak continues...

There is no sign of stopping.

Two days later.

The Los Angeles Lakers successfully defended their victory at home, while the Milwaukee Bucks, along with their 55-point scorer, completely lost themselves in the Staples Center. The 55-point scorer took 20 shots tonight but only scored 5 points. — ESPN report.

The Los Angeles Lakers have won their 22nd consecutive game, tying the Boston Celtics' feat from last season and becoming the second-longest winning streak in NBA history. —Sports Illustrated.

"Mr. 55 Points? Brandon Jennings, I heard you're a candidate for Rookie of the Year. But sorry... I've won two consecutive MVP awards! Genius is just the beginning of my career!!! Zhou Ze, the top active player, blocked Brandon Jennings five times in a single game." — Slam Dunk report.

...

...

The Lakers' 23rd regular season opponent is the Miami Heat.

The Heat are ranked in the top eight in the Eastern Conference this season, but this mainly depends on their star player, Dwyane Wade.

The Lakers challenge the Heat away.

The Heat's general manager, Pat Riley, personally came to the scene to supervise the game. Obviously, the Heat really wanted to end the Lakers' winning streak.

The Heat's starting lineup: Mario Chalmers, Dwyane Wade, Quentin Richardson, Michael Beasley and Joel Anthony.

The Lakers' starting lineup: Rajon Rondo, Kobe Bryant, PJ Tucker, Zhou Ze and Chris Andersen.

After the game started, the Heat's backcourt wanted to double-team Rajon Rondo, but this obviously underestimated Rondo's dribbling ability. Facing the sudden double-team, Rondo calmly passed the ball and assisted Kobe and PJ Tucker to make shots.

Michael Beasley, the talented troublemaker back then, also tried to challenge Zhou Ze alone.

Beasley is a killer in the NCAA. He has great abilities. If he were given the right to play in the NBA, he could also average 20+ points per game. But in front of Zhou Ze, Beasley is still not good enough.

Beasley made a three-man threat and broke through on the right. Zhou Ze blocked his shot from behind and said with a smile, "Michael, compared to your childhood friend, you are so weak!!!"

Beasley and Durant are childhood friends. They have known each other since they were young. Before entering the NBA, Beasley was half a head better than Durant.

Beasley's physical fitness is praised as being close to that of James, but in fact, his running, jumping talent and confrontation ability are far behind James. However, he is better than James in one aspect, that is, his ability to combine with the ball.

Beasley, who is 206cm tall, is as smooth as a guard in terms of the combination of man and ball.

But unfortunately...

Zhou Ze can even defend against real defenders.

Beasley was unwilling to accept the defeat, and Zhou Ze blocked his shot twice more with "bang!" and "bang!"
