On November 5, 1996, the New York Han Chinese came to Los Angeles. This was the Han Chinese's first visit to the Western Conference this season to challenge the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Great Western Forum Arena is already packed.

After all, Kobe's reputation is so great, and the unexplained things with the Lakers have made fans in the entire Los Angeles area quite excited.

Before the game, Kobe also received a call from Bruce from across the ocean. Bruce's purpose was quite simple. It could be summed up in one sentence: to kill the Lakers.

Why did Bruce call Bryant instead of head coach Paul Westphal?

The reason is simple. Since you, the Lakers, want Kobe, then Kobe will personally send your Lakers to hell.

In fact, Bruce is also very perverted in his heart. He has always disliked the Lakers team, including dynasty teams such as the Boston Celtics. Why doesn't he like it? Does it mean that Bruce hates the other team because he can't buy it?

Of course, Bruce's "little thoughts" cannot be exposed.

To be precise, he hates the Buss family. If the Buss family had not always occupied the Lakers, Bruce would have won them long ago. The Chinese advantage in Los Angeles is much more mature than that in New York.

And you don’t need to use your own funds to fund those slums every year. Calculate how much money you can save every year. It’s all the fault of the damn Buss family and the damn Lakers.

Of course, there are more celebrities and rich people coming to the Great Western Forum today. After all, Los Angeles is also a super metropolis in the United States, and Hollywood is not far away. Of course, these people have the time and energy to come to the sports circle to make their presence known.

.

Los Angeles has always had no shortage of stars, but among these celebrities, only one is so special. He has been sitting on the sidelines watching games for 30 years. He always yells at the referees. He is the spiritual leader of Lakers fans, even the big fans.

Even Peyton didn't dare to say "no" to him.

Yes, he is the famous Hollywood director Jack Nicholson.

At this moment, Nicholson is always hunched over in the row of spectators closest to the field, with his arms on his legs to support his head, ready to get angry at the referee at any time. He always wears that black jacket and that

A pair of trademark black sunglasses. This kind of dress and style seems to have become a symbol in itself, and it means the most loyal fan of the Los Angeles Lakers.

The DJ at the scene also shouted the current absolute superstar of the Los Angeles Lakers: "Shaquille O'Neal!"

"He is the new owner of the city of Los Angeles. He is our shark. He swam from Orlando to Los Angeles..." With the DJ's commentary, O'Neal also stood up from the bench and high-fived his teammates one by one.

.

The reason why the on-site DJ wanted to explain O'Neal is that in addition to being one of the "four major centers" in the league, he is also very strong, and it is also related to Kobe Bryant of the Han Chinese team.

West just wanted to create this effect and let Kobe see how wonderful it is to play in Los Angeles. When Kobe's rookie contract expires, he can go to New York to recruit himself.

Soon the starting lineups of the two teams also appeared on the broadcast screen.

Los Angeles Lakers starting: Center Shaquille O'Neal, power forward Vlade Divac, small forward Cedric Ceballos, shooting guard Eddie Jones, point guard Nick Van Exe

you.

Starting lineup for the New York Hans: center Alonzo Mourning, power forward Kevin Garnett, small forward Glen Rice, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, point guard Jason Kidd.

…

Today's game is broadcast live across the United States, and of course CCTV will also broadcast the game live.

In the press area, reporters from CCTV also came to the scene today.

CCTV reporters found Director Zhang Weiping, who had been commentating on the Han team, and asked, "Director Zhang, can you tell me what the Han team has a good chance of winning today?"

"You know, there is O'Neal on the Lakers team!"

Zhang Weiping also shook his head, "It's hard to say. I don't know what kind of performance the Han people can do. The lineup of the Lakers and the Han people are very close. If the Han people's outside shooting percentage is not high, they will lose today."

It will be difficult to win.”

Although Zhang Weiping also knows that it will be difficult to defeat the Lakers in Los Angeles, he does not have absolutely no chance of winning. As long as he restrains O'Neal in the paint, there is a possibility of winning.

It's a pity that Bruce was not at the scene. If Bruce was at the scene, he would definitely deny Zhang Weiping's answer. Just kidding, I started five All-Star lineups, and I have been selected to the All-Star lineup at least three times. Use this lineup to beat the Lakers.

It's like using mortars to fight mosquitoes - overkill and overuse.

Not to mention that I have a bunch of former All-Star players sitting on the bench. How can the Lakers play?

Looking at the Lakers, they also have Shaquille O'Neal and Vlade Divac inside who are capable of resisting the Han Chinese inside. As for their outside players, they are simply not good enough. No matter how they match up, Bruce always thinks that player will lose.

Of course, there is a premise for this, that is, if the game really speaks for itself in the past life, the Han team can indeed win 100%, but in reality...

After all, Kobe and the others are not yet at their peak, so it is still difficult to say the outcome of the game!

After the Han people's two consecutive victories, many experts believe that as long as the Han people keep going, the Han people will definitely have their name in this year's Eastern Conference playoffs!

…

At the Great Western Forum Arena, the referee holds the ball and walks towards the center circle.

As the referee threw the ball high into the air, O'Neal and Mourning, the "rivals" in 1992, once again fought together.

O'Neal is too fat. If you let him jump, you might as well kill him, but Mourning is different. At least his jumping is much better than O'Neal.

Kidd picked up the basketball passed by Mourning and quickly dribbled the ball through half court.

In the first attack of the game, the main point of attack for the New York Hans was Kobe, and it could only be Kobe.

In this game, Kobe had vowed to win against the Lakers, so before the game started, he used his status as captain to tell the other four players that he must be the first to take action.

It doesn't matter to Mourning. He has long passed the age of competing with newcomers for offensive rights. Besides, Kobe is the captain appointed by Bruce himself. Mourning must assist Kobe no matter what!

And Garnett doesn't even have the right to take shots. He is like an all-around machine in the paint. He will go wherever he is needed. As for the right to take shots, it's nice to have that, but it doesn't matter if he doesn't. After all, he was replaced by head coach Paul West.

Fall's arrangements were very detailed, so detailed that every action he performed was "acted out".

I won’t mention Glenn Rice. He who was transferred here has no say. It’s better to be an honest person.

Kidd is different. He doesn't like attacking by nature. If you want it, Kobe will give it to you.

Kidd immediately found Kobe running out of space.

The ball was quickly passed to Kobe's hands.

Kobe holds the ball at the top of the three-point arc.

Eddie Jones followed closely.

Kobe really dribbled faster now.

Suddenly, Kobe started!

Dribbling with his right hand, the center of gravity of his body is towards the right side of his body. The moment he leans on the ball, Kobe has his back against Eddie Jones. Then he uses his speed and athletic ability to avoid Eddie Jones's defense and quickly starts to get away.

The opponent quickly breaks into the basket.

At this moment, Eddie Jones was knocked down by Kobe!

Lakers fans at the Great Western Forum let out a burst of exclamations.

Really backward steps!

Ankle terminator - Kobe Bryant!

The moment Eddie Jones stood up with his hands on the ground, Kobe had already entered the penalty area and dunked.

boom!

The basket keeps shaking!
Chapter completed!
