Phil Jackson called Fan Xi aside before the game started. "Jack, you haven't fully adapted to the altitude sickness yet. Please rest for a while."
"Coach, I think I don't have any problems now." Fan Xi told Phil Jackson with a smile. After saying that, he jumped up.
The Zen Master showed a gentle smile.
Then, he said something meaningful: "Jack, I vaguely remember your Chinese proverb: Fine porcelain should never collide with vulgar earthenware pots."
"In my heart, you are the most exquisite porcelain in the world."
Jackson patted Fan Xi on the shoulder, then walked over to lay out the tactics.
Of course the Zen master knew about Raymond Felton's provocation to Fan Xi, but he also knew that Fan Xi's physical strength could not be compared with Raymond's, plus he suffered from altitude sickness.
no need.
When Jack defeated Raymond Felton, everyone would just think...oh, it doesn't seem to be too surprising.
Jack had just won the All-Star MVP, and it was a time when he was in the spotlight.
But if by chance Raymond dunks on Jack, or knocks Jack away... Raymond will definitely make a big fuss, that's what he came for.
Fan Xi's current fame has attracted a group of players with ulterior motives. They really want to step on Fan Xi and get the upper hand.
Because no one in the league or even the world can find an All-Star mvp with such a big reputation but such a shallow foundation.
The Lakers' starting lineup is Derek Fisher, Kobe Bryant, Mike Dunleavy, Lamar Odom, and Pau Gasol.
Although the Lakers had traded Shannon Brown, Ron Artest, and Steve Blake before this, the media generally believed that Los Angeles was stronger. Because of the rise of Fansheed at the 1st position, Mike Dunleavy brought three more players to the Lakers.
The deterrent power from outside the line...no one dares to ignore the presence of a tall shooter.
What's more, when Phil Jackson created two dynasties in Chicago, both had outside shooters.
Even during the Lakers dynasty, Robert Horry appeared as a tall shooter.
…
Raymond Felton was particularly upset that Fancy didn't start the game and punched the air.
What frustrated him was that Kobe Bryant was targeting him.
Kobe is a paranoid person. If he hates someone, he will hate him to death. If he likes someone, he will spoil him to no end.
Historically, the person he hated the most, and the one person he publicly expressed his dislike in the media, was his former partner, Smarsh Parker, a point guard nicknamed "The Grim Reaper."
Now, his favorite person is Fan Xi.
From the moment Raymond Felton made a grand noise in the airport VIP lounge, Kobe was ready to give this guy a hard time.
Felton dared to yell in front of him and point fingers at his favorite little brother. Isn't this asking for death?
Kenyon Martin helps the Nuggets win the ball.
Ty Lawson kept his promise and passed the basketball to Felton.
Unexpectedly, Kobe was staring at him.
Kobe is one of the few offensive and defensive giants in NBA history. He has been selected to both the league's first team and first defensive team 10 times in his career. This is extremely rare in history. Jordan is slightly inferior in this project.
.(Kobe Bryant is the superstar who has entered the first team most times in history. He has been selected to the league's first team 11 times and the league's first defensive team 10 times. Jordan has been selected to the league's first team 10 times and 9 times to the league's first team.
Defensive lineup. Ranked third is Tim Duncan. Duncan has 10 first-team appearances and 8 first-team defenses.)
The pace gets tough for Raymond Felton.
He kept changing his rhythm, but was unable to get rid of Kobe because of his lack of skills.
Kobe's back and forth made Felton very uncomfortable.
Nene hurried up to cover for Felton: Everyone loves Raymond... gold.
Felton took advantage of the situation and entered the three-point line, and he quickly stopped and took action.
But at the moment before taking the shot, Kobe flew up from behind.
In order to avoid the block, he shot faster... Bang! Haste makes waste.
Basketball blacksmithing.
Lamar Odom protected the rebound and passed it to Derek Fisher.
Fisher moves forward with the ball, he is very steady.
Then pass it to Kobe.
Facing Raymond Felton, Kobe used his very classic cross step, reached the left waist area, turned around, shook his shoulders, swayed, feinted, and leaned back...a series of actions were performed smoothly.
Felton made a misjudgment on his third fake move.
Watching Kobe throw the basketball easily... ugh!
hit.
Fan Xi watched mesmerized from the sidelines.
To a certain extent, Kobe's scoring is already an art. He is the player closest to Jordan in history in terms of scoring skills.
However, compared to Jordan's casualness...it's easy to do.
Kobe's offensive skills have a trace of polishing over time.
Jordan was born with talent and extraordinary inspiration.
Kobe was a person who was honed over time and made the best use of everything.
There is no distinction between good and bad.
If you guard Jordan, you need to pray from the beginning.
To defend Kobe, you need to keep making false or false questions. You don’t know which option you will be passed on. Even if you answer all the multiple-choice questions correctly and predict all of Kobe’s fake moves, you still need to pray in the end...
Because you can't really stop Kobe's shot.
"This is skill." Matt Barnes said to Fanshie: "Kobe is recognized as the most difficult player to defend. It is unfortunate that Raymond encountered him."
Fan Xi nodded. He now has many players' skills and talents in his body, and he is still in the process of frantically absorbing and integrating them into his own. Kobe's smooth movements just now made him envious. He thought to himself that if he could do it one day
To create your own style at this level, you have to be a superstar among superstars.
Fan Xi was extremely eager to play at this time.
He wanted to use Raymond Felton as an alchemy stone to hone his skills.
Because the stronger the opponent he faces and the higher the level of hatred, the easier it is for him to inspire a better version of himself.
Fan hoped to see Phil Jackson, the Zen master sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai. He even squinted his eyes and wandered to the sky.
No one would criticize a head coach who created three dynasties for taking advantage of his job, and would even automatically make up his mind: Phil Jackson is indeed a top coach, full of energy, and has his own aura.
The game continues.
Kobe continued to stare closely at Raymond Felton. Felton had a headache. He was particularly annoyed. He was targeting Fan Xi to become famous overnight.
Unexpectedly, he was targeted by Kobe and tortured to death.
It just so happened that he didn't have the leverage to fight back.
