Chapter 71 Triple Double Mission
Tonight, the New Orleans Hornets host the Los Angeles Lakers at the Ford Center in Oklahoma.

The Los Angeles Lakers are undoubtedly a noble team in the league. They have the most popular basketball star in the league, after Michael Jordan, the most popular basketball superstar on earth-Kobe Bryant.

Against the Los Angeles Lakers, the officers and soldiers of the yellow team's front team did not dare to be careless at all, because their opponents are the Los Angeles Lakers.

Even without Shaquille O'Neal, the Purple and Gold team still cannot tolerate the Sonics' slight contempt, because they have a Kobe Bryant in the league.

The Lakers can be regarded as the two teams with the deepest foundation in the history of the league. If you want to count the two teams with the deepest foundation in the league, there is no doubt that the Boston Celtics in the east, the Los Angeles Lakers in the west, and the mecca of basketball -- Tracy McGrady The Knicks, the owner of Johnson Square Garden, are no match for these two teams.

The Celtics have produced many stars in history, and the Lakers are also star-studded, from the original George McCann, Elgin Baylor, Jerry West, and Wilt Chamberlain, to "Skyhook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, "Magic" Johnson , James Worthy, the last big shark "O'Neal", and Kobe Bryant now, which one is not a famous person, most of them are hall of famers, this purple and gold team, even now because of the shark's departure , and no one is allowed to desecrate it.

After two days of hard training, Jack has reached the sixth level in the skill of "mid-range shooting".In other words, even in the face of someone defending, Jack is near the free throw line, and he can still score 10 or 5,6 of [-] mid-range shots.

Inside the Hornets locker room before the game.

"Guys, I know we've been winning a lot for a while, and outsiders look like we're scoring very well, very good, but I don't think so. If the regular season is over, we still won't be able to If we advance to the playoffs, I think no matter how many games we can win now, it is meaningless. So, we must not slack for a moment, we must continue to move forward and advance to the playoffs." Bye Len Scott first gave the Hornets players an opening statement, scanning the surrounding circle.

Byron continued: "The Lakers are a very great team. They have the best basketball player in the league-Kobe Bryant. However, I hope you can understand that basketball is five people. sports."

"Kobe Bryant is very good. Everyone can't deny that, but this is not the reason why the Lakers are invincible. They have Kobe Bryant, we have Chris Paul, David West, And Michael Jack, we can even beat the San Antonio Spurs, beat the Los Angeles Lakers. All we need to do is cut off the connection between Kobe and his teammates, we have no problem winning this game... "Byron Scott pointedly emphasized the problems of the Lakers.

However, as long as the earth knows about this problem, the key to the problem is the execution of tactics.How easy is it to cut the connection between Kobe and his teammates?
In fact, in his previous life, Jack was looking forward to a hearty duel with Kobe Bryant, the best basketball player on the planet.However, due to the defect in height, this wish cannot be realized.Therefore, I have always kept this wish in my heart.

However, what I didn't expect was that a time travel would change everything.Wait a minute to play against Kobe's Lakers.How could Jack not have his heart beating faster?

The game between the New Orleans Hornets and the Lakers.Even though the team's home stadium moved to Oklahoma, the tickets were completely sold out.The fans were mostly looking for their best rookie -- Michael Jack, looking forward to a great performance from Jack after his last game against the Denver Nuggets.

Another point is that they are directed at Kobe Bryant.From this point of view, Jack has to sigh, Kobe Bryant's personal charm.Even if it was an away game, there were still quite a few fans who came to him to watch the game.

The United Stadium in New Orleans was full of voices, and the fans roared like a tsunami.

The narrators of this game are the golden partners "Sir Charles Barkley" and Kenny Smith. And the bald man Crawford who is the referee today.

Hilton and the parallel import champion Kwame Brown jumped the ball, and Hilton took the lead first.

Chris Paul dribbled the ball across the half court, Chris Paul broke through and scored the ball, and the ball was handed over to JR Smith who was ambushing outside the three-point line. Good start.

After jr Smith made a successful shot, he did not forget to provoke Kobe Bryant who was defending him, "Bryant, you are nothing more than that."

Jr Smith also paid the price for his words.In the next round, Kobe Bryant was also in the same position as jr Smith and hit him a three-pointer, but the difference was that Kobe still caused jr Smith's thug foul Kobe hit a three-pointer success.

"Charles, it seems that today's game is very intense! Kobe seems to feel really good today! The black mamba may be bloodthirsty today."

"Haha, yes, Kobe Bryant is the same type of person as that guy, and he won't let himself suffer a bit." Bickering Bachar Barkley responded.

"Oh, by the way, the Hornets now have a rookie called Michael Jack. Jack Jack had a very good performance a while ago. What do you think?"

At this time, Paul intercepted Odom's pass, made a quick quick down, and scored with a low-handed layup.
