Kobe led by example and walked the walk.

Facing Shentong's face-to-face block, Kobe's slightly faded pull-up jump shot made a solid hit.

The Lakers struck first.

After scoring the goal, Kobe raised his right arm, and Vanessa in the stands also shook her right hand after seeing it, as if the two had made an appointment.

"What day is today?" Buckley said suddenly.

"Well... today is just an ordinary day, neither a weekend nor a holiday." Smith looked at the calendar and replied with a puzzled tone.

"Then why are you giving out dog food today?"

"..."

...

Seeing the performance of its opponents, STO will definitely not be far behind.

Facing Kobe, Shentong performed the Butterfly Step as soon as he came up.

When he drastically changed the direction of the lever and stunned Kobe's center of gravity, he suddenly accelerated and rushed into the penalty area.

Even Kobe Bryant couldn't stop STO's breakthrough.

Facing Medvedenko at the basket, STO made the Ukrainian nuclear warhead feel the power of China's giant cannon.

"boom!"

Medvedenko immediately fell to the ground after being bombarded by Shentong.

The referee's whistle sounded at the same time, and he made a gesture indicating that the goal was valid and a penalty was added.

Shentong hung on the basket, then slowly let go and fell.

Avril Lavigne in the stands immediately jumped up and cheered for Ai Lang excitedly.

Buckley squinted his eyes and said, "It happened again...I feel like I'm full..."

...

After STO made an extra free throw, the Nets took a 3-2 lead.

The Lakers' next offense still transferred the ball to Kobe's hands.

Kobe used tactics to get rid of Shentong and now faced Jefferson with the ball.

In the team, except for Shentong, Jefferson is currently the best wing player of the Nets.

However, it was completely different from STO's defensive performance. Kobe's breakthrough was almost unimpeded and he passed Jefferson in two steps.

Faced with Uncle Mu's open-fingered deadwood block and Martin's swiveling block, which was eager to regain the court, Kobe made a stop-gliding action in the air.

He took the ball back from the air, slid past the blocks of two Nets players, hooked the ball toward the basket with his backhand, and made a hit on the board.

3-4

After scoring the goal, Kobe high-fived Fisher and immediately called on everyone to quickly return to defense.

...

"Through the opening few offenses and defenses, I feel that Kobe is more mature than before and has begun to assume the leadership responsibility of supporting the team." Smith commented.

Barkley said: "Yes, after losing Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe must do more to keep the Lakers on track. Judging from the current situation, he has done a good job in recent games.

.Perhaps it was Shaquille's injury that forced a better Kobe."

On the court, Shentong's singles encounter was double-teamed by the Lakers.

Shentong, who was blocked by the opponent, passed the ball horizontally to Jefferson on the other side.

However, Jefferson's breakthrough layup was called an offensive foul by the cunning Robert Horry.

Smith explained: "Shentong scored 70 points in the last game. Jackson and Los Angeles will definitely carefully deploy tactics to defend Shentong. It can be seen from the defense just now that they have definitely had serious defensive drills.

I’m afraid it won’t be that easy for STO to achieve high scores in Los Angeles.”

Barkley said: "Yes, the Lakers will definitely take precautions against Shentong, and the player facing him is Kobe. The difference between Kobe and other stars at the same position is that he has the ability to score when facing

When there is a strong defender, he will not switch to defend, but he will attack and defend. Kobe, who is extremely competitive, will definitely not allow Shen to score higher than himself in front of him, and he will think of something

, Shen is currently the player with the highest All-Star vote rate, beating him to rank first. Based on my understanding of Kobe, he will definitely be unhappy. Then the question is, after Shen Tong passes the ball, who can step up and end the attack

Woolen cloth?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Horry received a pass from Kobe from the three-point line and made a shooting motion, which resulted in a defensive foul by Jefferson.

This foul is very sensitive, because not long ago, Jefferson just caused the Kings to take away the victory that should have belonged to them in New Jersey due to an unnecessary foul outside the three-point line.

"Hey, I knew it. Thank you, Richard, the Nets are so lucky to have you." Horry said with something in mind.

"What?!" Jefferson was furious and wanted to argue with Horry.

Shen Tong, who heard the exchange between the two, immediately stood in front of Jefferson and said: "Richard, you don't have to be familiar with this kind of person. You are much better than him. Don't be led in by him."

into the trap, otherwise he will defeat you with his rich experience in trapping people."

Shentong's half-serious and half-joking words immediately eased Jefferson's mood.

"Okay, Shen, I understand." Jefferson patted Shen Tong on the back, glared at Horry, and turned to leave.

Horry smiled contemptuously, stood on the free throw line, and made two free throws.

3-6

"Hey, Richard, to be honest, I admire you very much." When returning to defense, Horry ran to Jefferson and said.

Although Jefferson ignored him, Horry continued talking on his own.

"If I had done that kind of behavior at the end of the game, I wouldn't have been able to get out of it without a week or two. Even though it was just a regular season game, your psychology is really strong, or a foul outside the three-point line.

Is it an instinct?”

Facing Horry's ridicule, Jefferson has been gritting his teeth and bearing it in.

He knew that this was Horry's usual psychological trick, trying to irritate him and disturb his mood.

"Richard!"

A roar caused the wandering Jefferson to immediately return to the court mentally.

He hurriedly caught Shentong's pass.

"Cheer up, man!"

Facing Horry, Jefferson, who was struggling on both offense and defense, dribbled the ball with his left hand and broke into the penalty area.

Breaking through with the ball is Jefferson's best offensive skill.

However, Horry's defensive skills, which are 2.06 meters tall, are also quite good.

What's more important is that he uses all kinds of little moves with great proficiency.

Poke your waist with your hands, or hold your chest, etc.

Horry used his body to push Jefferson to the basket, leaving almost no shooting angle for the opponent.

But when the 24 seconds were about to expire, Jefferson could no longer think too much.

This ball can only be a forced shot, but players including Horry and Walker seem to be ready for the big shot.

At this critical moment.

"Richard, come on!"

This is...Maribou's voice.

Although they had only chatted on the phone before and had never heard the original voice in real life, the man's sixth sense allowed Jefferson to conclude that this was the voice of Maribu cheering him on!

Ah, spring.

I also have beautiful fans!

Facing the blockage of several Lakers players, Jefferson suddenly took off and jumped towards the basket.

"Everyone, get out of here!"

Jefferson, who suddenly went berserk, held the ball with both hands, passed through the defenses of Horry and Walker from the air, and completed a shocking two-handed dunk over Medvedenko's head!

This is...
Chapter completed!
