NBA: The start beat Kobe Bryant in his old age

Chapter 81 Watching the game with Kobe, the Bulls beat the Bucks
After chatting for a while, Ross and the others left.

Leaving the hotel at this time, they should have gone directly to the Bradley Center to play the game.

Lin Tian came to Kobe's room, and Kobe was still telling him interesting things about Gasol.

Although the two are no longer in the same team, they are still in frequent contact.

Lin Tian knew that although Kobe was a good player, he had a cold and paranoid personality, and he said what he said.

Many stars who were teammates with Kobe eventually broke up with him.

For example, Shaquille O'Neal and Howard.

Gasol's personality is complementary to Kobe's, otherwise the two would not be teammates for seven years.

Once inside, Bryant turned on the TV and took out his PS4 from his backpack.

In fact, Kobe doesn't like playing games very much, but it's really boring when playing away games, so he can only have fun.

Before playing the game, Kobe took out his fruit 6splus to play a video at home, and then the two officially started playing the game.

Lin Tian is not very familiar with this game, but he also enjoys it.

When playing games, time always passes quickly, and more than two hours have passed in a blink of an eye.

They waited until the game between the Bucks and the Bulls was about to start before they turned off the game and started watching the game.

This night, the Bulls' starters are: Jimmy Butler, Pau Gasol, Nikola Mirotic, Taj Gibson, Kirk Hinrich.

The Bucks' starting lineup is: Khris Middleton, Michael Williams, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Greg Monroe, Jabari Parker.

In this list, Lin Tian is most concerned about Antetokounmpo, also known as Antetokounmpo.

He took out his mobile phone and checked Antetokounmpo's data this season.

At present, Antetokounmpo still holds a basic salary in the Bucks.

Compared with last season, his improvement this season is very obvious, averaging more than 15 points per game.

According to the normal historical progress, Antetokounmpo will sign a four-year maximum salary contract with the Bucks this summer.

In fact, the current Antetokounmpo already has a faint superstar appearance, especially his body shape has changed a lot compared to previous seasons.

I'm afraid many people can't imagine that Antetokounmpo can develop into an MVP-level player in the future.

As a traverser, Lin Tian also wants the Lakers to trade Brother Antetokounmpo.

But the Bucks are now vigorously cultivating Antetokounmpo. This season, Antetokounmpo's shots in the team are second only to Middleton.

His shortcoming may be that he has no projection, but he is excellent in other aspects.

To get Antetokounmpo, the Lakers may have to send themselves out...

After looking at the player information for a while, the game between the two sides officially started.

The Bulls showed a strong determination to win at the beginning, and Rose and Butler took turns to attack.

The Bucks also put up a strong defense, but they couldn't prevent the Bulls.

The records of the two teams were not much different before, and the Bulls had a slight advantage.

After Rose scored a beautiful layup, Kobe said with emotion: "If it was a few years ago, he would have dunked the ball directly."

Unexpectedly, Kobe would express such emotion, Lin Tian nodded with a smile, convinced of this.

The three players of the Bulls can definitely be called the Big Three.

Inside, Gasol is quite powerful both defensively and offensively.

Rose on the outside is responsible for handling the ball, and Butler is also a great threat on the wing.

After all, the Bucks are young. After the first quarter, they were 10 points behind the Bulls.

The highest scorer in the first quarter turned out to be Gasol, who scored 10 points in a single quarter.

Kobe said: "If Paul was still on the Lakers, our record in the past few seasons would not be like this."

"Yes." Lin Tian also affirmed, "Last season, he was selected to the second team of the best team."

In addition to being selected to the best team, Gasol was also selected as an All-Star starter last season.

When he announced that he was joining the Bulls, many people accused him of going to the Bulls to hug his thigh.

Who knew that instead of hugging his thigh, he became the team's thigh...

It's just that they met the Cavaliers led by James in the playoffs, otherwise, the Bulls might have made it out of the Eastern Conference last year.

After the start of the second quarter, Middleton began to lead the team to counterattack.

As the current boss of the Bucks, Middleton's offensive ability is relatively strong.

Antetokounmpo is still only assisting Middleton, which can be seen from the number of shots and playing styles of both sides.

Lin Tian remembered what happened in his previous life, and asked while watching the game: "What do you think of Giannis of the Bucks?"

Referring to Brother Antetokounmpo, Kobe said bluntly: "His upper limit is far more than that. If he is given enough room for growth, he will become the top three in the league in the future."

I didn't expect Kobe's evaluation to be so sharp. It can be seen that he also knows these players quite well.

Seeing that Lin Tian just nodded, Kobe continued: "His career is even very likely to win the MVP."

Kobe is really accurate in seeing people!

If you follow the normal timeline, Antetokounmpo can even win 2 regular season MVPs in a row.

Of course, now with Lin Tian's crossing, everything may be rewritten.

After watching the second quarter, the Bulls still maintained a 10-point advantage.

The current style of play of the Bucks is still very normal, because Antetokounmpo has not fully grown up, so there is no so-called one-star shooting.

Like most teams, they use the pick-and-roll the most.

The current head coach of the Bucks is Jason Kidd, a player-turned-head coach.

As a player, Jason Kidd's career can be said to be perfect.

But as a coach, he failed to create a reliable offensive and defensive system, and his coaching career has had many controversies.

One of his most famous tactics does not come from the field, but from off the field.

It was 2013. When Kidd was still coaching the Nets, because the team hadn't suspended the timeout, he made a quick decision and asked the players to deliberately knock over the water cups they were holding in order to delay time and arrange tactics.

Kidd was also fined by the league for this.

Now that he has been in the Bucks for nearly two years, it is still difficult for the Bucks to make it to the playoffs, but Kidd has allowed Antetokounmpo to have more shots.

He must have a way of cultivating newcomers.

It's a pity that Kidd should be fired by the Bucks in another one and a half seasons, and Antetokounmpo can't stop him.

Of course, these are all for later.

Soon, the third quarter began, and Kobe simply turned off the sound of the TV and explained to Lin Tian himself.

After watching the game, the score between the Bucks and the Bulls was fixed at 106:117, and the Bulls won the game.

Butler scored the highest score in this game with 32 points.

This player who has always wanted to be the leader of the team, after experiencing this game, the position of the team leader has become a little more stable.

And Lin Tian just felt sad for Ross in his heart.
