Chapter 670 60 points and quasi triple double chapter~
"What? What happened to Bryant? He's not going to dunk again, is he? This is too risky and crazy!" Seeing the offensive trend of the Lakers No. 24, Bill McDonald was surprised and worried: "He
I have just recovered from my injury. I act so randomly every time and jump to the limit every time. It’s really nonsense!”
"I'm going to give him a heads up later. Go during halftime. Playing like this is not something he should do at his age." Both of them have been commentators for the Lakers for a long time, ever since Chick Herr.
After Hearn's death in 2002, the two of them basically partnered and witnessed the entire history of Kobe's solo career. Therefore, compared to Hearn's "fraternity", Bill McDonald and Stu Lantz are both typical "
"Come" type, the reason is very simple. They explain that this man has the most and longest games, and has invested so much emotion and energy that they can't help but be partial to him.
In fact, let alone them, Howard was not surprised. He had never seen such dunks in a row in his life.
Who was it last time? It was Shaquille O'Neal at his peak. On the outside, James didn't even dare to play like this.
This is mainly a mental and spiritual problem. Kobe is a paranoid. If you let Jordan have this opportunity, then this season he will probably use all his strength to perform and destroy his opponents. In the last season, the recovery of various attributes is the most
In the peak season, this factor will bring the paranoid mentality to a historical peak. To put it simply... they will be desperate and crazy.
That's what Kobe thinks. It's his last season anyway. If he doesn't try his best and leave something behind, then he'll be sorry for himself.
Sorry for this opportunity.
So without any hesitation, Kobe stepped into the penalty area and started flying high. This sharp momentum and firm will were something Howard had never seen before when he played basketball. Therefore, he was a little inexplicably stunned for a moment.
It is often said in some novels that a certain master intimidates his opponents with his momentum. The Lakers' No. 24 is a bit like this. That determination and that gaze are like sharp arrows.
Tang Qian finally understood why Jordan said in his 50th birthday interview that his competitive spirit has not changed at all, and may even be stronger, but his body does not allow it. The feeling of regaining his peak will definitely make him paranoid.
Becoming more paranoid, more competitive, and competitive.
Kobe's mentality at the moment is probably the same as that of 50-year-old Jordan. Only when he loses it will he become more eager and "greedy".
Once a miracle occurs, it will be an evil tiger descending from the mountain, a flood rushing through the gate, and he himself cannot stop himself.
This extreme competitiveness and desire to win will make them "psychologically abnormal" and go crazy to destroy.
Destroy your opponent.
any opponent.
This spirit is so terrifying! You have never experienced ups and downs like that. If you are not that kind of person, you will never reach that level!
This is the pinnacle of paranoia, and his eyes are almost like "perverted psychosis".
It is often said that the soft one is afraid of the hard one, and the hard one is afraid of the life-threatening one. What about the life-threatening one?
You are so afraid of your life that you don’t even know what kind of lunacy it is!
The metaphor is not appropriate, but it can only express my inner shock.
Howard, for the first time, saw this kind of "crazy" look on the basketball court.
This is not a show, but a real shock.
Or scary.
In this flash of effort, the Lakers' No. 24 had already jumped to the top. This ball jumped a few points higher than the "most reluctant to recall ball" in Howard's impression. This is not the "Black Mamba",
At this moment, Lakers No. 24 is "Peter Pan."
He was the "Peter Pan" who once had an afro and was fearless.
Bang~~~
Lakers No. 24 was hanging high on the Houston Rockets' basket, but what shocked the audience was his lower body.
He was impartial and square, just riding on Howard's body and dunking into the net.
The strength, beauty, and jumping height are more stunning and more "cruel" than the last time I rode the "Warcraft".
The high-definition camera recorded the entire process of the ball minute by minute. Kobe's expression made people feel vaguely terrifying.
It was as if it was tearing apart the opponent beneath him.
There is no trace of humanity on his face.
One-fifth of a second later, the entire stadium exploded with wild roars, as if the roof of the entire Staples Center was about to be torn down. This cheer was not made by machines, not thought, not
It was driven by the uncontrollable shouts from the hearts of every fan at the scene.
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!!!GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GOD!!!!!!!!!! What is this?????????????
??Who told me what this is?????????crazy!!!!!!!!!!!! Kobe is crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
This is Bill McDonald's voice.
"Only~Shit!!!!!!!!!!!! It's so exciting!!!!!!!!! It's so exciting!!!!!!!!!!!! Although I know Kobe
It's unreasonable to play like this, but who cares about him now??????? I bet that this ball will become one of the top ten balls of this season and one of the top 100 dunks in NBA history in the future!!!!!!
!!!!!!" Stu Lantz couldn't help but said loudly, this kind of shot, this kind of picture, it's hard not to make people lose control.
In fact, Howard was standing in the reasonable collision zone for this ball. He did not have time to take off, and his body was slightly offset. According to NBA rules, this is definitely a defensive foul, but the referee was probably stunned, so there was no
The whistle was blown, and the whistle was missed.
But it doesn't matter, because Kobe has already scored, 45-37. This is a huge blow to Howard and the Rockets.
"You're still the same as when you were a rookie." Kobe didn't say much, but this sentence hit Howard hard. He looked at the back of the Lakers leaving on the 24th, and his face almost turned darker.
Got up.
"This old dog! This old dog! I will torture him to death!!!"
Howard turned around and prepared for a dunk in the Lakers' interior. This made Ryan Kelly cringe when he saw it. He wished he had two extra feet to leave the penalty area and get to the basket faster. However, someone rushed forward because he was returning to defense.
At that time, Tang Qian on the bench gave him a tip, or a "secret weapon".
"Hey, Robert, send him to the free throw line. You know, that's his hardest hit area." After the Lakers' call from No. 29, Thackeray immediately understood. The biggest difference between him and Ryan Kelly is that, although
He lacked talent, but he still had courage, and his defensive attitude never made a big mistake. So just when Howard was about to dunk, Thackeray stabbed out diagonally, and then pulled the "Warcraft" down hard.
This kind of ball is obviously a defensive foul.
However, Howard has also been pulled down. He no longer has the ability to "dunk over people" like he did in Orlando. The decline in physical fitness will be something that the Rockets will have to face in the future on the 12th.
It is said that James relies purely on his body to make a living. This is absolutely stupid. People like Howard, whose competitive status plummets from 27 to 28, are the ones who really rely on his body to make a living. Once superhuman physical fitness declines
, then he immediately withdrew from the ranks of the league's top centers, and it was a cliff-like decline.
The 13-14 season is the final peak of his career. After this period of time, Howard will probably have nothing to gain.
Personal honors have completely stagnated.
Well, actually this season, he barely managed to get a third-team honor. As for the best defensive team and best defensive player, he basically has nothing to do with him. Not to mention the first defense mentioned before the game, the second team
There was no way he could get in again.
In his second year in Houston, due to another injury, he completely withdrew from the ranks of stars and became a pure blue-collar player.
And it's not even the top one.
This year, he is only 29, and should be in his prime at the No. 5 position. However, our "Warcraft", the number one center selected by ESPN this season, has sadly withdrawn from the competition for top centers.
O'Neal looks down on "Warcraft", Mourning looks down on "Warcraft", and Ewing looks down on "Warcraft". This actually makes sense, because Dwight Howard has indeed benefited from the times, and his personal strength is far less than what he has achieved.
Honor is so strong.
He is just the No. 5 superstar of this era.
This comment from a famous Yahoo Sports reporter is very pertinent.
Howard glared at Thackeray fiercely, but unfortunately there was not much "viciousness" at all. Instead, Howard looked back at him, tit for tat, without giving in. It is probably the first time in NBA history to be treated like this by a water cooler No. 5.
The treatment of a "league's best center".
Howard made 1 of 2 free throws, which was not bad.
45-38, but Kobe had no intention of stopping. He passed Beverley in a disguised form, and then took an 18-foot, mid-range shot from an open position. With a "swipe", the ball hit the net cleanly.
47-38, the score difference was pulled to 9 points after Kobe re-entered the game.
Howard wanted the ball in the low post, and neither Thackeray nor Ryan Kelly could withstand him. But still, as soon as Howard was about to take action, the latter fouled him, and judging from his strength, he "blackballed" the former.
Beep beep~
Howard screamed and was very angry after landing. He looked at Thackeray and said, "You rookie, are you looking for death?"
Thackeray was a second-round pick last year. According to the NBA's "rookie contract" four-year rule, he is still a rookie. Of course, this is just an unwritten rule. In fact, after the "rookie contract" rules were introduced, only first-year players are eligible.
Round picks are useful. Second round picks and undrafted picks do not enjoy this "rookie contract" regulation.
But there is no problem with Howard calling Thackeray that way.
In the second grade, you are still qualified to participate in the rookie competition. If you are not a rookie, you are not a rookie, so what is it?
Generally speaking, starting from the third grade, no one calls him that way anymore. For example, Tang Qian is now in his third season, and you basically don’t hear that name anymore.
Sacre's career is indeed not good, and his statistics and skills are not outstanding. He can even be said to be scumbag. However, this guy is not soft in playing, and since he witnessed "Warcraft" being frequently "taught" by the Lakers No. 29, he
There is not much awe for this so-called number one center in the league.
"Try it if you dare!" Thackeray's words made Howard even more angry: "What did you say! Say it again! You fucking rookie!"
"Robote, don't be afraid of him. If he dares to fight you, I will also suspend you and fine you to help you KO him!" A word from the Lakers bench made Thackeray suddenly shocked, and he said with confidence: "I
It’s just you! What’s wrong? You defector from Los Angeles!”
"You..." Howard was so angry that his face turned red, but Tang Qian's words made him very afraid. He didn't want to make a fool of himself on the national live broadcast again, so he could only endure it and then went to free throws.
Free throws are executed on the line.
"Bang~Bang~"
Without a calm mind, Howard missed all two free throws, which made Tang Qian laugh loudly from the audience: "Well done, Roberto, you have done a great job!"
In the remaining time, Kobe made 2 of 4 shots, and the Lakers entered the halftime break with a 2-digit lead of 51-39.
During the break, the Lakers' on-site commentator Stu Lantz found Kobe. He mainly wanted to remind the latter that he has been dunking the basketball too much recently. This style of play is good-looking and the fans are more interested.
, but it is too harmful to the body. As a veteran who has just returned from injury, it is better to suppress his desires appropriately.
Kobe Bryant said something that puzzled Lantz:
Stu, I know what you mean, but I don't have many games left, understand.
In the first half, Kobe scored a total of 35 points, only 4 points less than the entire Rockets team. This scoring ability is staggering.
At the beginning of the third quarter, both sides resumed their main lineups, and when Howard saw Tang Qian, he immediately said loudly: "China is hot! If you have the ability, don't use dirty tricks! Fight me with real swords and guns, do you dare! Ah!!
!" Howard was also afraid of the "killing Huo tactic" and said with lingering fear. He thought he would have to waste more words, but unexpectedly Tang Qian nodded and said: "Okay, I didn't plan to do that."
"I won't be happy if I win you like this."
What??? This damn Oriental guy!!!
Howard was angry. He felt that he was the number one center in the league. How could he be so looked down upon by a blue-collar player?
Must be taught a lesson!
Must be taught a lesson!!!
You can't beat him in a fight, but you must beat him in a ball game!
So on the first play of the second half, Howard got the ball in the low post and then tried to steal the Lakers' No. 29.
It's a pity that he thought too much.
Tang Qian now has nine shot-blocking crystal tiles + eight and a half defensive crystal tiles. He is not as good as the real peak Chamberlain, but in this era, he is already an invincible defense. Howard only averaged 18+ points per game this season, and he has even scored first-class points.
If you don’t even count your hands, how can you talk about beating Tang Qian in the low post? The Lakers’ No. 29 blocked Howard with a big block.
Howard was shocked and angry. He was in an explosive state right now, and he was easily blocked by his opponent? How could he give up at this point?
The ball was not far away, and it happened to be next to Howard. "Warcraft" picked up the ball and attacked again. This time he stepped directly into "The.Zone". After all, he is still a famous league superstar, and he still has the temperament and strength.
.
With a strong desire to defeat his opponent, Howard entered "The Zone", but he didn't know, and even Tang Qian himself didn't understand, why he suddenly entered the "super god" of defense.
It was as if he was angry with Howard.
If you watch football long enough, you will find that there is such a situation in the NBA.
When a very strong star meets another star, he will be defeated and blown away basically every time, similar to what Yao Ming did to Howard, what Jordan did to Drexler, etc. And the worst thing is, if
It's okay if they show their normal strength, but most of them are suppressed and can't breathe.
It's like meeting a natural nemesis.
This is how Tang Qian feels now. In fact, he can still have the upper hand even if he doesn't break out in any state, unless Howard not only enters "The Zone" but also enters the "Super God". But suppressing it is not so enjoyable.
Now it's better, Howard couldn't break through Tang Qian's defense in the first place, but he suddenly made the latter enter a defensive "super god" state.
His fate is self-evident and can be imagined with your toes.
Tang Qian jumped up, bang~, and a catch came directly. Howard's half hook was ruthlessly caught and killed by the former.
Catch? Catch the hat???
When Howard saw Lakers No. 29 using this kind of defense to end his shot, he was stunned. After a few seconds, he regained his consciousness.
"Thanks, man, one plate and one hat, it's relaxing and happy." Tang Qian did not forget to mock after landing.
The Lakers' offense is still Kobe. Tonight, Kobe seems to be antagonizing Harden when Harden is present and antagonizing Howard when Harden is not there.
Now with the Rockets, no one can guard him.
Moreover, Kobe is still an "all-round super god". His momentum is like turning into a poisonous snake. He can beat Harden one-on-one offensively and strangle Harden defensively one-on-one. He seems to have a perpetual motion machine.
I don't know how tired I am at all.
What, what did this guy do? Isn’t he tired? When did he have such good physical strength?
After 10 years, Kobe's physical fitness began to decline. Of course Harden didn't know the concept of Kobe, who had unlimited physical fitness. Oh, no, now he knows.
Damn it! Didn’t this old guy take medicine? Otherwise, how could he be better than me in physical fitness? He was not tired at all after such intense defense?
How can it be!
Harden thinks too highly of himself. To be honest, he has never been labeled as a physical monster. As of 2017, Harden currently averages 33+ playing time per game in the regular season and has never had a 40+ season or postseason.
A total of 34+ games, a total of 2 4+ seasons, all in one round, too few games to be used as a reference. But we can see a problem. In these two series with more than 40+ playing time, his shooting percentage
Except for his career low in his rookie season, his shooting rate in the 2013-14 season was only about 37%. Therefore, as the playing time was extended, Harden's shooting rate plummeted. Currently, he is one of the playoff players with more than 40 playing time.
Harden's shooting percentage has never exceeded 40%, and they are all below 40%.
Therefore, it is extremely funny for him to compete with peak Kobe Bryant in terms of physical fitness.
There is a difference in grade between the two.
Moreover, after his strength could not match Kobe's, he suffered even more by relying solely on his skills and speed. This game was completely out of touch.
In the third quarter, he made 0 of 7 shots. If it hadn't been for the 4 points he scored, the league's top scorer would have scored zero points in a single quarter.
What about Kobe? He simply didn't give face and wanted to destroy his opponent's basketball dream. He didn't "touch the porcelain" at all. He broke through the whole process and then went to play 2+1. Then he played a post-up single, making Harden desperate. This is not 11
-Kobe Bryant in the 12th season. In that season, Kobe was no longer in weight and his strength declined significantly, so Harden could still rely on his tonnage to block.
Just prevent Kobe's strong shots and rhythm breakthroughs.
Tonight, there was not so much emphasis. No. 24 was a breakthrough + a post-up shot, and every back-up shot was accurate. The force of the impact made James Harden feel a toothache!
His speed is not as good as Kobe's, his skills are not as good as Kobe's, and his explosive power is not as good as Kobe's. Now his strength is completely outlasted by Kobe... How can this make our league's first point position better? It's not that he has never tried to explode, but his opponent is so strong that he can't do it at all.
Give him a chance to get into shape.
Just like that, Howard couldn't score, and the main outside scoring point was targeted by Kobe. The Rockets' momentum was quickly eroded. If Parsons hadn't been scoring, the Rockets would have lost this game.
pants.
Kobe scored another 25 points in a single quarter... 60 points in three quarters and left the game early to rest.
At this time, the score between the Rockets and the Lakers was 84-55. In other words, the Lakers alone on the 24th scored more points than the entire opponent's team. Just like that year against the Los Angeles Lakers.
The brutal slaughter of cattle is general.
They made 18 of 28 shots from the field, including 4 of 7 three-pointers, and 20 of 21 free throws. At the end of the game, the Rockets were already facing the crazy Kobe, so they could only foul and then send the latter to the free throw line. Except for
In addition, there is no other way to limit and defend.
In 30 minutes, the shooting rate was 64.3% and the three-point shooting rate was 57%. Kobe once again destroyed a team with one person's scoring. This explosive power made Tang Qian on the court secretly stunned. No wonder he said
Kobe's continuous scoring ability is one of the best in NBA history, and may even surpass Jordan's. When I saw him today, I had an extraordinary reaction.
If he hadn't already led by almost 30 points, Kobe would probably go crazy again tonight!
Forget it, this guy is probably stuffed up, so he might as well vent his anger.
Tang Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head.
After Kobe left the game, Tang Qian stayed on the court to finish the third quarter. He also racked up a lot of data in this quarter, with 10 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks, which were Tang Qian's statistics for this quarter. Howard and Harden were completely sluggish.
, the energy of this game is gone, so Tang Qian is on the inside, which can be regarded as relaxed and happy.
The Lakers scored 108-78 and slaughtered the Houston Rockets for a full 30 points.
This game caused quite a stir afterwards.
First, in the ESPN live broadcast room, Isiah Thomas claimed that Kobe Bryant probably had his Achilles tendon replaced. This year, he is as energetic as 25 years old. In addition to praising Kobe Bryant, Moses Malone also mentioned something
Mouth:
This game may be a game for the rise of Dongfang Bang. Forgive me for my previous words, he defeated "Warcraft" tonight!
I think that if he can maintain his condition and not slump after an outbreak, then this season's DPOY may be booked in advance.
His future is brighter than that of blue-collar seniors such as Ben Wallace and Mutombo.
After the game, Kobe was surrounded by the Lakers, and there were many people around Tang Qian. After all, he also scored a near-triple-double of 15 points, 19 rebounds, and 8 blocks. If it weren't for the former's 60 points in 30 minutes, it would be too much.
It's scary. In this game, he may be elected as the best player of the game.
"Bryant, you scored 60 points tonight. Is this the first time you've scored a super high score since 2009? How do you feel?"
"I don't feel anything. It's not the first time I've done it. I just made some shots that I should have scored tonight."
That's right. You were obviously working alone tonight, playing hard, and didn't have much chance to score. You're really telling lies with your eyes open.
Tang Qian complained silently beside him.
"Why did you suddenly break out? Is there any reason?" This is a question that must be asked every time there is a high score.
"Yes." Kobe said: "Because I want to see if the strength of the league's No. 1 point guard and the No. 1 center in the league can completely defeat me, the 25th player in the league."
This remark is extremely ironic and covers a wide range of topics. It satirized ESPN, Harden, and Howard all at once.
"Are you going to keep that aggressiveness this season? Or is it just this one?"
"I will not miss any game this season, and I welcome anyone to challenge me." Kobe has regained his peak self-confidence and domineering, and subconsciously placed himself in the position of the league's big devil.
"The Lakers started the season well, with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss. What is the goal of the Lakers this season? Entering the Western Conference semifinals? Entering the Western Conference finals?"
Kobe glanced at the reporter and blurted out: "Championship, as a Laker, our mission is only to win the NBA championship! It's the same every season!"
For a moment, there was an uproar below, because no one thought that the Lakers would dare to say this this season. For reporters, this is big news that can be played up in a big way.
"Then may I ask, what is your slogan this season? Return to the top? Or return of the king?"
Kobe said: "Winter is coming."
Winter is coming???!!! This is another big news!!! The reporters wrote quickly, and then the man turned to Tang Qian and said: "Fang, what about you? How are you?"
Tang Qian smiled and said: "What else can I think? Of course it's the same as the Black Mamba."
"Winter.is.ing!"
"Winter is coming."
"Well, that's our slogan for this season."
"Right, that is it."
PS: Because there are important things in the company tomorrow, the outbreak has been postponed until tomorrow. Xiao Zi needs to go to bed early today and recharge her batteries.
But the chapter is still a big chapter, this can be considered a 2+1 chapter, right~
Thanks to Qin Rumeng for the big reward~Thank you~
