"Due to the influence of the host, Kobe Bryant's scoring ability is fully released, and the mission: The man closest to God is triggered."

“The man closest to God:

Goal 1: The final score of the host in this game must be higher than that of Kobe Bryant.

Goal 2: The host needs to lead the team to win this game.

Reward: attribute card (stamina +1)."

Let’s look at the rewards first, physical strength +1, which is good, but it is not a high-level attribute card. His physical strength is already 90, so he needs a high-level attribute card to use it directly, otherwise it will be 3-in-1.

However, whether it is ordinary or high-level, you must get it first. Accurate hit will increase physical strength by 1, so the physical strength is the only thing to blame on the little blacksmith.

The difficulty of the task seems to be... not that high!

The mission description has made it very clear, and the little blacksmith’s blacksmithing ability is fully unleashed!

…

The Lakers don't care about rankings, but the Trail Blazers do.

The Lakers have won everything, and the current coaches and players of the Trail Blazers can be said to have "nothing" in terms of convenience.

Jackson really did his job. In the second quarter, O'Neal played for 3 minutes at the end of the quarter, and it was not the main attack point, but just supporting the ball and grabbing rebounds. Payton was just one of the transitional guards, and Malone did not play again.

After the halftime break, Jackson sent out a lineup of Janaro Pargo, Kobe Bryant, Devin George, Brian Russell, and Horace Grant.

If there is a chance of winning at a critical moment, Jackson will definitely send O'Neal, but he has no intention of doing so now.

The other two superstars will not be on the show again.

Because O'Neal has a super characteristic that no one else has and can't learn - ignoring state restrictions such as feel and rhythm.

This is the reason why he and only he can rest and be lazy during the regular season, and only need to adjust his weight in the playoffs to return to his strongest strength.

The other two superstars spend a long time warming up to activate their bodies before the game.

The Trail Blazers sent out a combination of Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Harrington, Raheem, and McDyess.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Trail Blazers took the lead.

Liu Xiu received the ball and advanced, and encountered Kobe's pressing defense in the frontcourt. Liu Xiu leaned over and pulled away, speeding up the breakthrough. McDyess blocked Kobe in the pick-and-roll, and Liu Xiu broke into the inside.

Kobe chased in, but Liu Xiu used the European step, and Horace Grant's half-beat slow pace failed to cause any obstacle. Liu Xiu once again got rid of Kobe and scored a layup.

Liu Xiu is still in good shape tonight!

When Liu Xiu retreated, he blew his hand. Lucky! The good touch and rhythm are still there!

This is an explosive state based on a comprehensive evaluation of 86!

When the Lakers attacked, Kobe faced Liu Xiu's pressure and defended. He easily got rid of it with his sense of rhythm. He suddenly stopped at the free throw line and Rahim made up for it. Kobe still took off and hit Rahim for a sudden jump shot.

...hit!

Easy and freehand!

Seeing this scene, when the Trail Blazers attacked, Liu Xiu became even more determined... and immersed himself in the team's offense.

This time the Trail Blazers attacked, after Liu Xiu passed the ball to the little flying squirrel, he actively looked for opportunities to take shots and transfers, but the Lakers defended very tightly and did not give him a chance.

The assisting player was Harrington. In the end, Harrington's flying layup was interfered with. Liu Xiu rushed to grab the ball to no avail. He didn't even touch the ball after it was passed out.

But he felt that his teammates played well! The opportunity was created, but it just didn't come through.

However, he did not give up on the mission, but wanted to make good use of everything he could use.

Team play adds to his strength, which he must take advantage of to be able to defeat Kobe in such a state.

He is just in good condition, and he is not a god descending to earth to possess Jordan and sling Kobe...

When the Lakers attacked, the Trail Blazers also strictly guarded against Kobe.

But Kobe is Kobe. No matter how hard you guard against deadlock, you can still find scoring opportunities. If you don't have a chance, you can still score if you force yourself.

Liu Xiu also actively worked hard to find opportunities. With the distance he ran and the almost constant speed in each round, Kobe had the same bad feeling as in the last match.

Liu Xiu's score was gradually approached by Kobe. By the time of the official timeout in the third quarter, Kobe had already led Liu Xiu by one point, 33-32.

However, the score between the Trail Blazers and the Lakers was 83 to 71. Although Kobe Bryant scored 9 points in the half, the Trail Blazers opened the point difference to 12 points!

In the second half of the third quarter, the Lakers' strict defense against Liu Xiu began to relax, and Liu Xiu's opportunity came!

Two three-pointers from the right sideline, a layup, a pull-up mid-range shot, plus 2 of 2 free throws, Liu Xiu made 4 of 6 shots in the half quarter and scored 12 points!

Kobe is really awesome. He focused on driving his teammates. He scored 5 points and 3 assists in the second half of the quarter. The two teams scored like crazy. The Lakers scored 19 to 17 in the half!

After three quarters, the Lakers chased the score to 90-100, and the two teams entered the fourth quarter with a 10-point difference.

Liu Xiu scored 16 points and 1 assist in the third quarter. When he had the opportunity to shoot, he took his own shot.

Kobe scored 14 points and 5 assists in the third quarter, leading the team to a surge of 32 points in a single quarter.

Liu Xiu's 44 points were 6 points ahead of Kobe's 38 points. The team led by 10 points, but he did not feel at ease.

Moreover, what are you afraid of?

During the break, Liu Xiu saw the fattest guy opposite him taking off his training clothes!

OK combination is coming!

It’s so stressful, but Liu Xiu is so excited!

After eating a piece of candied haws, Liu Xiu twisted around and moved his body on the sidelines.

In fact, you don’t need to eat all-round nutritious food, but just like the God of Gamblers eating chocolate to show respect.

OK's return to the field not only puts pressure on Liu Xiu, but also puts pressure on other Trail Blazers players.

If you are playing against the Spurs or Timberwolves, if you lead by 10 points in the last quarter, all you think about is, 'We are already 10 points ahead.'

When playing against the Lakers, even if the other two giants are not available and there is only an OK combination, what they think is, 'We are only ahead by 10 points.'

However, seeing Liu Xiu's eyes shining with excitement, the pressure of his teammates also turned into excitement.

What a pleasure it is to play the last part with OK group!

…

The Trail Blazers sent a combination of Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Miles, Randolph, and Dale Davis.

The Lakers sent a combination of Fisher, Kobe, Luke Walton, Brian Grant, and O'Neal.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers attacked first. Kobe passed the ball to O'Neal with an exquisite jump. O'Neal turned around and wiped Dale Davis, and took off against Miles who was defending from the bottom line.

The ball hit the basket.

OK group is back!

O'Neal was numb as he watched Kobe turn around and retreat without any sign of wanting to celebrate the OK connection.

I thought back then, when he scored such a goal, he could wave his arms and run up to Kobe for a hug... But after thinking deeply about everything in the past two years... If he doesn't win the championship this year, everyone should go away and let everyone have their own fun.

to go.

The tacit understanding and strength of the OK group remain unchanged!

When it comes to the Trail Blazers' offense, the Lakers' defense no longer cares about Liu Xiu scoring high points. It regards Liu Xiu's score as part of the Trail Blazers' team score.

He was down, he had already scored 44 points in three quarters, and it was basically impossible to score 50 points. Kobe was worried about this and let Kobe score more points.

Zen Master made an adjustment - Kobe was not allowed to guard Liu Xiu, for fear of being vomited by him again.

At this point in the game, Jackson could no longer control the rhythm, so he just followed the other players. The Blazers were trying their best to play fast.

It's just that the OK combination is too fierce. The Trail Blazers have gone all out, but Kobe and O'Neal have been eating away at the point difference.

When the game reached 6 minutes and 22 seconds, the official timeout came back. Liu Xiu turned around quickly and flexibly from the low post and hit the baseline, raising his personal score to even 50 points.

At 8 minutes and 15 seconds, Liu Xiu cut in and hit a shot off the board before O'Neal blocked it, raising his personal score to 52 points.

Liu Xiu scored 8 points and 2 assists in the final quarter, Flying Squirrel scored 7 points in the final quarter, Randolph and Raheem each scored 4 points... but the game was still chased by the Lakers at a critical moment.

Kobe Bryant scored 12 points and O'Neal scored 10 points. The two led the team to a score of 35 to 26. At 11 minutes and 35 seconds of the fourth quarter, with 25 seconds left, the Lakers chased the score to 125 to 126, narrowing the point difference to

1 point!

At the critical moment, Liu Xiu was playing singles from the outside. This time Kobe came to defend him. Liu Xiu failed to get the cover and could only break into close range under Kobe's defense and make a diving layup...

Thanks to Kobe for his ‘physical surge’!

Kobe's pursuit and defense at this time, catching up to close range, was already at its limit. Liu Xiu's diving leap was beyond the limit of Kobe's ability to follow. Liu Xiu's layup was not hindered. He felt very good and fell in.

Inside the box!

128 to 125, the lead reaches 3 points!

In terms of individual scores, Liu Xiu leads Kobe with 54 points and 50 points. It is not possible to overtake with just one goal!

The Lakers called a 20-second timeout.

Both teams have conducted lineup rotations.

Trail Blazers, Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Outlaws, Miles, Spandinha.
