The game was a bit beyond Phil Jackson's expectations.

He always felt that the direction of the game was a bit beyond his imagination.

Allen Iverson and Stephen Marbury standing in the glass house also felt abnormal.

"Did Jack regard himself as a defensive player? Doesn't he know that his physical distribution is very important?" Allen Iverson said.

In Iverson's view, Fan Xi should put his limited physical strength on offense. After all, Fan Xie on the offensive end is all-round.

"Maybe, Jack just doesn't want Kobe to steal his thunder in scoring?" Stephen Marbury said.

"No, my father is not this kind of person." LeBron James hastened to emphasize.

These words made everyone look at James, the chosen son of today's league, who is a head taller than them, in a strange way.

James looked at Iverson and Marbury with sincere eyes: "I have long regarded him as a father in my heart."

It still feels weird, but it doesn't seem that hard to accept. Although the current James is tall and burly, with a vicissitudes of life, he looks older than Fan Xi...

However, after all, James grew up from a very young age. At that time, he was indeed following behind Fan Xie, and Fan Xie can also be said to have changed the direction of his entire family.

Ben Wallace agrees with James' thinking.

James went on to say: "I think Grant Hill can sort out the offense. He has always been a role model for me to learn from."

Grant Hill does have the ability to do that.

Moreover, the defense he faced was Fox. Fox could indeed be called a defensive champion two years ago, a 3D model. But now, he is really depressed.

Although Grant Hill is not in the same state as before, he can easily infiltrate from the flanks, not to mention that there is Vanhey next to him as a check, and Reggie Miller pulls the line of defense.

Kobe Bryant lost his touch in the first half under the defense of Fan Xie, and Gary Payton also passed the basketball to O'Neal more.

In the paint area, O'Neal faced the leisurely Anthony Mason. Mason and Ratliff used their strong bodies to pinch O'Neal.

And be ready to send him to the free throw line at any time.

Although none of the Knicks' insiders can guard O'Neal, there are plenty of places to send O'Neal to the free throw line.

The Lakers' offensive rhythm was cut to pieces in the third quarter.

The Knicks took advantage of the chaos and continued to expand their lead, although Grant Hill was locked by Phil Jackson in the second half by closing the door and beating the dog.

However, Van Heede took over the banner of the offensive end, and he stabilized the Knicks' offensive.

After the third quarter, the Knicks led by 9 points 82:73.

In this section, Fanhee defended Kobe all the way.

Kobe only scored 6 points. Although his total score reached 42, the momentum of growth was completely contained.

This gave Phil Jackson a new way of thinking.

When Kobe returned to the bench, he said to Kobe: "Kobe, you will act as the team's feint next, you will run without the ball, crazily consume Jack's physical energy, and at the same time give your teammates more offense Chance."

Zen Master This is a very good idea.

However, Bryant objected.

He said: "Phil, I'm not underestimating you. But I always feel that your prediction has been predicted by Jack. In other words, your current thinking is exactly what Jack needs. He deliberately defended in the third quarter. I seem to be exhausting my physical strength, but I am actually betting that you think you are smart enough to see his shortcomings, let me feign offense, and leave the basketball to other players."

Um?

Phil Jackson was confused by Kobe's words.

After thinking about it, he only understood one meaning from Kobe's words: Are you laughing at my IQ? You think I'm not as smart as Jack Fan?

"There are traitors in our team." Kobe whispered in Phil Jackson's ear.

Jackson even wanted to KO Bryant directly.

He stared at Kobe with eyes that could kill people: "You'd better do what I say, I think you are like a traitor."

Kobe was helpless.

He has a sense of grievance of 'loyal ministers being wronged'.

Why is Phil Jackson so stupid? Why is he questioning me? Is my judgment false? Milicic even sneaked to Jack's house to toast Jack. He can even handle a European rookie. Is it difficult to deal with our Lakers? He has been in Los Angeles for so many years, maybe he has penetrated the Lakers into a sieve.

Kobe got angrier as he thought about it.

beep!

The whistle blew and the fourth quarter began.

Kobe could only follow Phil Jackson's advice, and he kept running.

Fan Xi followed closely behind his pace.

However, Gary Payton shot directly under the defense of the madman. Anthony Mason protected the rebound and passed it to Van Hee. Van Hee took the ball for a fast break, and then assisted Stephen Jackson to complete a counterattack layup.

This goal made Kobe inexplicably anxious.

He made eye contact with Phil Jackson that he hoped the head coach would come to his senses.

This matter is not that simple.

But Phil Jackson told Kobe with firm eyes: You have to be strategically patient. If you don't listen to me, I will be very angry.

Kobe had no choice but to continue to do so, and he drove Vanhey's defense.

Fan Xi followed him closely.

This made Kobe even more suspicious.

With Fan Xi's intelligence, it is impossible not to see this kind of strategy to lure the enemy. But why did he do this?

It's very simple, there is an inner ghost, this is his intention.

Kobe made up a lot of things.

But it's actually very simple, Fan Xi's current physical fitness is fine, why should he save his energy?

It's not tiring to keep up with Kobe.

Besides, the team is weaker than the fifth position inside, which position is not condescending to the Lakers.

Running with Kobe, maybe you can quickly shrink the penalty area and interfere with O'Neal.

Ideas just formed.

Gary Payton passed the ball to O'Neal, and O'Neal stuck Anthony Mason tightly.

Just as he was about to reach out for the ball, Fan Xi suddenly shot out from the slanting stab. His explosive power, which is the best in the league, allowed him to reach the sky in one step. Under the effect of amazing bounce and suspension, he lightly stretched his ape arm in the air and put the basketball in his hands.

It's like a good fit.

The ball rotates again.

Fan Xi took the ball for a fast break again, and passed the basketball to Stephen Jackson again, Wu Sheng made an emergency stop at the free throw line for a jumper, whoa!

Another 2 points.

The difference further widened.

Kobe couldn't take it anymore.

He decided to go it alone.

Even Phil Jackson couldn't stop him, because Phil Jackson was also suspected in his heart.

After all, knowing people and faces doesn't know the heart.

In the subsequent round, Kobe directly asked for the ball from Gary Payton, and with Phil Jackson staring at him, he played a single with Van Heela.

This time, he really succeeded.

He used a fadeaway jumper to complete a difficult goal.

After scoring the goal, Kobe took a deep look at Phil Jackson: "Look, Zen Master, I will only demonstrate once. How to kill the ghost and kill the Knicks."

Zen master was really stimulated by Kobe's eyes.

But he really had no choice but to be destroyed twice in a row.

Zen Master even wondered at a certain moment... Is there really a ghost in our team.

Later, he figured it out, but his skills were inferior to others.

The Knicks' rotation is much bigger than the Lakers'.

The advantage of the Lakers should be the duo of Kobe and O'Neal. The two superstars unite to drive this group of average-level players, and they will naturally be able to defeat the Knicks, a group of above-average players.

Changing sides to fight again, Fan Xi did not single out Kobe, but played answer-ball, he hit the penalty area in a straight line, and passed the ball after no results.

Jackson made another jumper and hit his third consecutive goal.

His hand felt hot, Fan Xi didn't want to waste it.

Afterwards, Kobe enforced the one-on-one policy strongly, Vanhey interfered with him, but the rebound was grabbed by O'Neal, Anthony Mason fouled and sent him to the free throw line.

When O'Neal got to the free throw line, he was going crazy. He said to Kobe: Can't you pass the **** basketball to me?

Kobe replied confidently: "Didn't you already catch the basketball? You also got an extra offensive rebound."

How can this be the same?

O'Neill is crazy.

He felt that if Kobe passed the ball early, Mason would not even have a chance to foul.

But now, he had to use a shot put to throw the basketball... Bang!

Free throw missed.

boom!

No more hits.

The rebound went to Stephen Jackson.

Kobe's face was full of helplessness.

The Lakers fans in front of the TV were also desperate for O'Neal's routine operations.

The Knicks sorted out the offense, Van Heeed still did not hold the ball and singled it out, and passed it to Sprewell, who forcibly crushed Gary Payton, and then passed the ball to Stephen Jackson.

Swish!

Stephen Jackson made his fourth consecutive field goal.

The gap continues to widen.

The Knicks felt a little too relaxed.

The NBA game is like this, there are many uncontrollable factors.

No one thought that Jackson's touch was so good.

Kobe felt that it was the small forward Devin George, who was defending Jackson, who was releasing water.

Otherwise, how could it be so unstoppable.

That's why Kobe directly steals the pass to Devin George in the halfcourt. He ignores Phil Jackson's hoarse voice.

Although Phil Jackson was very angry, he couldn't burst out.

Swish!

Kobe made a hit and added a penalty.

And let Anthony Mason, who had 6 fouls, graduate and end.

Replaced by Juwan Howard.

Phil Jackson thought that this would be an insider's opportunity, and he shouted the No. 3 tactic, and he connected Kobe and O'Neal in the next meeting.

However, when Juwan Howard hit a mid-range shot.

Kobe seems to have forgotten about it.

He forces a shot from beyond the arc... BOOM!

In basketball, O'Neal grabbed an offensive rebound, but was slapped by Ratliff when he made a layup.

Stephen Jackson picked up the basketball and passed it to Fan Xie, who launched a fast break.

"The Lakers have entered an extremely distorted state. They don't even look like a team now. Every link is in the wrong rhythm." Iverson expressed his opinion on the game in the glass house.

Iverson is famous for "going it alone" on the court, but in fact their vision is very comprehensive, including Kobe and Iverson, let them chat about the details of the game and their perception of the game, they are all outstanding of.

They can always quickly feel that the atmosphere of the game is not right.

But it just doesn't change.

"That's right. Their chemical reactions are all frozen." Stephen Marbury nodded again and again, and then said to James: "LeBron, your father is going to win two consecutive finals. He has created a miracle in NBA history. He is the first A leader who led his team to 14 straight playoff games."

When James heard the words, he yearned for it, and his face was full of admiration.

Afterwards, he clenched his fist and sighed softly: I really hope that one day I can break my father's record.

Swish!

Sprewell hit a high jumper, the Knicks entered a smooth stage, and all the rhythms were running perfectly.

On the other hand, on the Lakers side, Kobe continues to go it alone, huh!

He hits the shot, he gets the point.

However, the situation of the team has not improved.

Phil Jackson even stepped aside and yelled at Bryant: "You should interact with Shaq, Kobe!"

Bryant turned his head: "Coach, you should trust me."

Phil Jackson was going crazy.

However, he has no choice.

Superstars always have a temper, and he felt that he couldn't understand Kobe's thinking.

The game continued like this, and the Knicks have been steadily expanding their lead.

Because the Knicks players feel good.

On the other hand, on the Lakers side, only Kobe was fighting alone. Kobe maintained a shooting percentage of about 50%, which is very good for a scorer.

Even for those fans who watched the game, they would only feel: Kobe did his best, without Kobe, the game would have lost its suspense.

With 3 minutes left in the game, Phil Jackson reluctantly requested a timeout. At this time, the Lakers trailed the Knicks by 16 points.

This is the Lakers' last chance.

Phil Jackson asked Kobe Bryant: "What the **** are you trying to do?"

Kobe was so anxious that he blurted out: "Didn't you notice something was wrong? Our team has Jack's mole!"

After saying this, Kobe looked around.

But he didn't see the picture he wanted to see.

On the contrary, everyone had an expression of "that's how it is".

Kobe was very strange. He thought to himself, could it be that everyone on the team betrayed the Knicks except for me? Jack's control methods are also amazing.

The thought flashed through him.

But then I realized that this is not realistic.

"Kobe, don't you understand? You're our biggest mole tonight, you've been out of the system and doing it yourself. Listen to me, Kobe, as long as you get back into the system, there's hope for us, trust us, Believe in Shaq, we can win!" Phil Jackson held Kobe's shoulder and beat his blood.

Kobe was thoughtful, and Shaq next to him said to him: "If you still do it alone, you are the ghost."

This sentence brought a lot of pressure to Kobe.

Guada Li Xia, he is indeed the most suspicious person.

This situation is too complicated.

Kobe suspected that someone had muddied the water, and the real insider was secretly having fun.

Therefore, he decided to cooperate with O'Neill next, and then he would naturally reveal his true colors.

beep!

The whistle sounded ~lightnovelpub.net~ and the game continued.

Kobe Bryant broke through Vanhey's defense and then quickly passed to O'Neal. O'Neal immediately turned around after receiving the basketball and smashed the basketball into the basket when Ratliff fouled.

Swish!

He also hit and added a penalty.

"The momentum of the Lakers seems to be back."

Iverson said.

At this time, Fan Xi brought the ball to the frontcourt.

Stephen Jackson yelled at Bryant: "Go and guard him, he's dead."
