The Hornets immediately made substitutions and added a forward, not daring to play with two point guards.

With a figure of around 18 years old, she is a loser in front of Zhang Zhiyuan.

When the Hornets attacked, Paul patted the basketball and then slung it under the basket. West tacitly shook off his opponent and caught the ball for a layup.

The ball goes in.

43 to 36, the Hornets still have the advantage.

During the transition between offense and defense, Zhang Zhiyuan was double-teamed by Peja and Peterson and immediately distributed the ball.

Ariza caught the ball and hit the ball.

43 to 39.

The Lakers were gaining momentum, but the Hornets were a little panicked. There were coordination errors in the offense and the ball possession was switched.

The Lakers went on a fast break and the Hornets retreated quickly, but to no avail.

Zhang Zhiyuan caught the ball in the chaos, and then took off and shot one step away from the three-point line.

The Hornets knew he had this trick, but there was nothing they could do because it was too difficult to guard against.

As long as there is a little negligence, Zhang Zhiyuan can get a chance.

At this time, the players and fans of the Hornets can only pray that Zhang Zhiyuan misses.

At this distance, Zhang Zhiyuan's hit rate is actually close to 45%, and the possibility of missing is actually higher.

It's just that his three-pointers are so sharp that it gives people the illusion that he can score as long as he takes a shot.

Zhang Zhiyuan's iron work was ignored by the fans.

The ball goes in.

43 to 42.

Sure enough, the Hornets fans closed their eyes in pain, knowing that the goal must have been scored.

The 12-point advantage was gone in the blink of an eye.

When playing against the Lakers, it only makes sense to have the last laugh. Don't be happy no matter how much you lead ahead.

"It's not scary to chase points. It's embarrassing to miss someone."

Sun Zhengping laughed and said.

When Kobe Bryant led the team, they lost by 10 points, but now that Zhang Zhiyuan leads the team, the team chased by 11 points in one go. This is the gap.

"Maddie's formula."

Zhang Lili said.

This word comes from Chinese fans, but more and more people think that this word is used correctly, so it is widely used, and even Zhang Liyi knows it.

The so-called Tracy McGrady formula means that whether a player is a cancer depends on the winning rate of the team with him and the winning rate of the team without him.

If the team's winning rate is higher without him, it means that this player is a cancer.

Although it's not particularly accurate, it's not far behind.

The Lakers were full of momentum on the court, and Kobe was on pins and needles off the court.

He is very embarrassed now.

Kobe firmly does not believe that he is a cancer, but now he really has no way to explain why the team fell behind when he was on the court and why the team took the lead as soon as he came off the court.

He couldn't express his suspicion that his teammates were acting like him.

After playing for a while, Kobe was replaced again.

There is no way, no matter how well the team is playing now, Jackson cannot let Kobe continue to rest, because he is the core of the team and one of the Lakers' signatures.

Not using Kobe at this time is almost telling the fans that there are conflicts in the team.

Kobe played again, but he couldn't be happy.

He was vaguely worried that the team would fall behind as soon as he took the field, and that he would continue to be targeted.

Before, he wouldn't have thought about such boring problems at all.

But I don’t know when he started to pay attention to the words efficiency value and cancer.

The game continued, and Kobe's worries came true.

When Scott saw that the team had no hope of winning, he was very unscrupulous and asked his subordinates to implement the "split plan".

Ever since, Kobe continued to do nothing on the court.

Although he worked hard to find opportunities, under the strict defense of the Hornets, it was difficult for him to connect with the ball.

After finally catching one or two passes, he will be double-teamed immediately.

Kobe also played 6 minutes in the second quarter, but none of his shots were used, as if he was sleepwalking on the court.

The only good news is that during his six minutes, the team did not fall behind.

But considering that he didn't take action, this doesn't seem to be a good thing.

Could it be that I am helping the team by not taking action?

Coming to this conclusion, Kobe almost vomited blood. He absolutely did not believe it. There must be an error in the analysis...

At the end of the first half, 58 to 64, the Lakers took a 6-point lead and scored 40 points in a single quarter, continuing to show their strong firepower.

Halftime break, home team locker room.

Because the team played well in the second quarter and achieved a big comeback, the players were very happy and were still discussing the game just now.

"West also wanted to dunk in front of me, so I slapped him in the face, but unfortunately I didn't slap him in the face..."

Bynum.

"Chuck, Madfak, you scored another 6 points, how the hell did you do it."

Turiaf said sourly.

"Hey, buddy, you just beat your opponent..."

.......

At first, everyone was chattering and chattering, but as Kobe suddenly stood up, everyone seemed to realize that something was wrong.

The discussion then stopped.

Kobe made 3 of 10 shots in the first half and scored a total of 6 points.

This performance was a disaster for him.

Everyone stopped discussing, but many of them felt dissatisfied.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the locker room was very delicate.

Fisher shook his head secretly, he was familiar with this kind of scene.

This is what the locker room looked like at the end of the ok group, they looked exactly the same.

The half-time break is over and the game continues.

Kobe has adjusted his mentality and is ready to perform well in the second half.

As long as his hand is smooth, it will be easy for him to score more than 20 points in the half.

Kobe's thoughts were beautiful, but after he came on the court, the Hornets immediately guarded him tightly.

"Madfa..."

Kobe closed his mouth halfway through the curse.

In his opinion, the Hornets' strategy is purely lunatic, and he cannot argue with lunatics.

I thought so, but after several rounds without scoring or taking any shots, Kobe inevitably became angry again.

The Lakers attack, with Kobe and Peja competing for position.

Both of them are old rivals. They were both from the class of 1996. Kobe was the 13th pick and Peja was the 14th pick.

Kobe bumped Peja roughly. He knew Peja.

Peja is a swingman. When playing the 2nd position, he actually has an advantage in height and strength. However, he is afraid of confrontation and his playing style is soft.

Kobe wanted to use rough movements to make Peja retreat and gain better space to catch the ball and a chance to shoot.

Although Peja's playing style is soft, he was not happy to be hit for no reason.

He pushed against Kobe forcefully, and at the same time, he used some small moves to reach his hands under Kobe's armpits and entangled them together.

Kobe caught the ball with his other hand and tried to start, but he made a mistake because his other hand was entangled.

Kobe, who had been holding back his anger, suddenly lost control of his emotions, pushed Peja violently, and cursed.

Now the Hornets players were unhappy. West and Peterson rushed over to ask for an explanation, while Paul said all kinds of heart-wrenching trash in front of Kobe.

"Kobe, don't be impulsive. It will be harder for our team to beat you if you are sent off..."

After hearing this, Kobe immediately broke through his defense. With a fierce force, he broke free from the assistant coach's hand and rushed towards Paul, punching Paul.

Paul is such a thief, he has been on guard for a long time, kept retreating, and kept spraying from his mouth.

When the whistle sounded, the referee directly made an ejection gesture to Kobe.

There is no referee, which is simply unforgivable.

"Oh Maigao, what happened? It seems that Kobe suddenly lost control of his mood."

Smith exclaimed.
