Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 248 Division Champion [2 in 1]

In Game 5, Kobe played a brilliant game.

This game attracted much attention, and more than 600 reporters from all over the world came to broadcast and interview this sports event.

Lian Feng failed to continue his miraculous performance in the previous game. Of course, he still scored 30 points. His average score in the playoffs has reached 31 points!But because of the constant double-teaming and restrictions of the Lakers, he got these points quietly.

Among them, three-pointers are accounted for in every quarter.

Of course, what surprised people in this game was not Lian Feng's scoring, but his rebounding.

Lian Feng grabbed a total of 10 rebounds, but 7 of them were offensive rebounds.

It's a pity that the most dazzling star tonight is Kobe.

To be precise, it is the duo of Kobe and Gasol.

Kobe scored 38 points, and today he made 7 of 6 three-pointers with an excellent touch, so the quality of his scoring in this game is also very high.Gasol scored 31 points, the second highest in the game.

Everyone can see and feel that everyone in the Lakers doesn't want to die here.

The Lakers' team shooting rate is as high as 59%!But this is not the key to their win. What really made them win was the fierce defense, which allowed the Hornets to lead 16 turnovers.

The most amazing thing is that Gasol hit two three-pointers. At the end of the game, Kobe also used a wonderful pass to help Gasol lift into the air and completed a dunk in front of his younger brother.

Hornets fans watched as the Lakers stole a win on their home turf.But they are all sensible, they know that no one on the team can be blamed for this. There is only one reason for the loss of this game, and that is that the Lakers played too well.

When Kobe no longer plays iron, the Lakers are the most difficult team in the league to defend!
The fans here once also liked superstars like Kobe.But this season, New Orleans fans only love their own stars, so Kobe's performance made everyone hate him.

After this game, the rest of the Lakers were celebrating, but this scene angered Kobe. He asked sullenly: "What are you doing? Did we win?"

Everyone was stunned by Kobe's sudden anger. Gasol smiled awkwardly and eased the atmosphere and said, "Okay, everyone, do what you have to do!"

When the Lakers left the court, Kobe sat in the bus and looked out the window.There was a determined look on his face.

The next game is going back to Staples, Lianfeng, I will drag the game into the tiebreaker!
……

Unlike the Lakers, losing a game didn't affect the Hornets' morale.

After all, the score is now 3-2. Although Game [-] is the Lakers' home game, Lian Feng is not so worried. As his strength becomes stronger, a strong self-confidence emerges from his heart. He knows that this team will not fall here.

Their goal is the championship.

He tried to grab rebounds in the last game. To be honest, Lian Feng will not take the initiative to grab rebounds from his teammates when protecting the backcourt rebounds.In many cases, there are Tyson Chandler and David West on the backcourt rebounds, and they are already safe enough.

Only when attacking, Lianfeng has more opportunities to grab rebounds.

However, the skill of smelling rebounds is still not as useful as Lian Feng imagined in actual use, mainly because of his position.

Lian Feng went to defend Kobe again in the last game. Even though Kobe scored 38 points, Lian Feng knew that he had done well enough. Most of Kobe's points were obtained by misplaced pick-and-roll three-pointers and fouls on the inside.And defending Kobe means being farther away from the basket and making it harder to control the area where the basketball lands.

Even if he knew which direction the basketball would bounce, Lian Feng couldn't flash past it all at once.

The Hornets and the Lakers summed up their experience and seriously prepared for the next game.

……

Sunday, today is the start of Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals.

Kobe's various feelings came to his mind. Since O'Neal left home, he has experienced too many failures.This made him want to play this game even more, so as to comfort his self-esteem.

Staples was packed with fans this afternoon, and the applause lasted longer than usual as the DJ introduced each player's name.Kobe's name was called last. When "Kobe Bryant..." sounded, thunderous applause broke out again.

Kobe is enjoying it all in the spotlight.At this moment, he knew that whether it was the Lakers or the Los Angeles fans, they had completely forgotten about those unpleasant things. At this time, he was the king of Staples.

All the Lakers fans have witnessed on TV how Bryant pulled the home court back here in New Orleans in the last game.

The hustle and bustle of the Lakers' home court did not scare the Hornets players. They just stood on the sidelines and watched the fanatical fans silently, with a relaxed and determined look on their faces.

Shortly after the kick-off, Gasol took the lead in scoring two points with a mid-range shot, and the audience once again burst into applause.Kobe is excited, they will win this game.

On the other hand, the actual situation of the Hornets in this game is not as easy as they appear.

After five or six minutes, Tyson Chandler was off, and then an assistant trainer came over and sprayed his knee with an anesthetic spray to relieve the pain.

Adelman let Gasol on.

Lian Feng frowned slightly. Tyson's knee had been injured all the time. It was an inflammation of the knee tendon. It was not serious, but he had to use ice cubes and some drugs to relieve the pain in many consecutive games.

Unexpectedly, not long after the start of this game, his injury worsened.

Tyson is the core of the Hornets' defense. If injured, the Hornets' defensive ability will be weakened a lot.

At this time, Gasol has not grown to the level of Dpoy later, and the Hornets often need to rely on Tyson's defensive ability.

The most intuitive impact is that the Hornets will not be able to grab rebounds in the next quarter.

Lian Feng was on the outside and could only watch his teammates on the inside being ravaged by the double towers of Gasol and Bynum on rebounds.

Because of the rebounding loss, the Lakers started with a 19-10 spurt. This offensive ended with a 3-pointer from Fisher receiving a pass from Kobe.After scoring this goal, Kobe ran over and patted Lao Yu's butt, and then Lao Yu made a shooting gesture, which once again set off a wave of cheers from the fans.

At the end of the first quarter, the score came to 26 to 12, and the cheers from Staples were deafening.

Lian Feng watched all this silently, calmly brewing a storm.

Lian Feng can fully understand Kobe's desire to win at this time.

To be precise, Lian Feng has always been able to understand, but in this game, Kobe's competitive spirit and paranoia have reached an incredible level.

Bryant used almost rough movements to grab position on every possession, and then waited for the opportunity like a poisonous snake.

Lian Feng knew that all the emotions were accumulated in that guy's heart.

For the Lakers in history, if it weren't for the successive injuries of players at critical moments, Kobe would probably beat the Celtics and win a three-peat post-Lakers championship. Then his historical status may be different.

But history doesn't have so many ifs.

Does liking a football star need reasoning?Lian Feng felt that apart from parents, there must be no love for no reason, and even family affection itself is a reason.The reason why I like a star the most is of course that he is a winner, followed by his excellent playing style, and finally other aspects, such as nationality and personality.

For most fans, there was everything to like about Kobe.

Lian Feng felt that it was really a good thing to be his opponent, because because of Kobe's existence, the victory would become more important.

To be precise, any star shining like a star will make that honor heavy.And Kobe is one of the best.

Really enjoyed this game!

Lianfeng was obsessed with fighting for every ball.

Everyone has a reason not to lose!
Today, Lian Feng didn't talk trash with Kobe. I don't know why, maybe it's because of the atmosphere.The Lakers fans here were full of voices, but Lian Feng clearly felt a solemn feeling.

Where does this solemnity come from?

After Lian Feng scored a goal, he seemed to have found the answer.

From Kobe's angry eyes and clenched teeth.

His mood made the game serious and dignified.

Other than Kobe Bryant, everyone else played their best performances in their positions.

Lian Feng gradually integrated himself into this environment, and everyone's performance formed a silhouette in his mind, engraved like a stop-motion animation.

The Gasol brothers refused to give in to each other, and even got angry during the confrontation. Gasol Jr. pushed his brother angrily, and then Gasol responded with a trick, tsk tsk at his brother, and shook his finger slightly.The referee blew a technical foul on Gasol.

Paul fearlessly pursued the old fish, who was always old, but finer, hotter, and stronger.Paul was knocked to the ground by an elbow raised by Fisher, and the referee called a foul.Fisher innocently spread his hands and explained to the referee: "That guy flopped!"

Then Paul got up, spitting a mouthful of blood from his mouth with disdain.

David West and Odom are similar players, and the two made mid-range shots from different positions.

These scenes left an indelible impression on Lian Feng's heart.

Lian Feng had no other disturbances in this game, no other messy emotional foreshadowing, he just wanted to win, this is a pure game!

Although he was double-teamed and unable to exert his full strength, Lian Feng thoroughly inspired his teammates in this game. He could see every teammate running hard, so passing became the main means of attack.Lian Feng can always find those teammates who slipped through the back door among thousands of troops, and then send an exquisite pass.

Lian Feng didn't pay attention to the score, and forgot the time, he just focused on the game itself.The coach's timeout, the opponent's substitution, and the halftime break all could not break this rhythm. He didn't look at the scoreboard until the whistle sounded in the third quarter.

65 to 60, the Hornets are still 5 points behind.

Lian Feng has scored 20 points, but also sent 7 assists.

Kobe seemed to be picked up after swimming in the lake, and the sweat on his body fell like rain.Seeing the state of Kobe Bryant, Lian Feng realized the intensity of the match.

"Kobe's leg is about to break, he can't run anymore! In the next quarter we will go all out, we will kill the game! Let this series come to a successful conclusion!"

Adelman roared at everyone.

Lian Feng remained silent, keeping his eyes on Kobe.

Is that guy's leg about to break?Lian Feng didn't think so.

After returning to the game, Lian Feng played two unreasonable breakthroughs, chasing the score to 65 to 64. The 1-point difference was like a finger, standing in front of the mouths of the home fans, making everyone quiet.

Lian Feng felt that the others were slowing down and their physical strength was gone.The same is true for Kobe, he is also a human being, and sometimes he is too tired to run.

Only I am not, my physical strength is finally higher than Kobe.

But when Lian Feng looked back at Kobe, he was slightly taken aback.

Lian Feng saw a kind of emotion surging in Kobe's eyes, the eyeballs were bloodshot, he was biting the jersey on his chest vigorously, sucking, his gaze made people shudder.

Subsequently, Kobe gritted his teeth against Lianfeng's defense and scored a 3-pointer.

Lian Feng narrowed his eyes, and when Kobe approached, he could even feel Kobe panting rapidly, his lungs opening and closing like a heartbeat.

"Your body is failing!"

"shut up!"

Lian Feng couldn't help feeling shocked.Why do those stars recognize Kobe so much?Even his opponent.Perhaps, the answer can only be found after a real fight with him.

With 40 seconds left in the game, Bryant caught the ball beyond the three-point line.

At this time, the Lakers trailed the Hornets by 2 points, and Kobe did not hesitate to make a move.

The basketball drew an icy arc in the air, and then smashed into the basket.

Lian Feng heard the fans around him boiling up, the volume was so loud that Lian Feng couldn't hear the voices of his teammates on the pitch.

The Lakers lead by 1 points!
But there were 36 seconds left in the game.

Then, before Lian Feng touched the ball, a dramatic thing happened. Fisher stole Gasol's serve!Paul had no time to blame Gasol, so he could only rush forward to defend.

After some entanglement, the Lakers delayed the offensive time. With 13 seconds left in the game, Gasol shot from the wing.This time, Gasol rushed forward desperately.

The basketball hit the edge of the rim!
All the suspense is concentrated on this backboard.

Kobe looked nervously at the rebound that flew out, and then his eyes gradually showed surprise and a hint of... unwillingness!
A big hand swiped through the air.

Time seemed to be frozen at this moment.

Moving speed!bounce!insight!Smell the rebound!
Lian Feng showed all his skills on this rebound at this moment and grabbed the ball.

His figure made everyone present unforgettable.

"Oh, God!"

The home female fans have covered their mouths.

9 seconds left.

After landing, Lian Feng's mood suddenly became calm. He looked up at the score, 91 to 89.

Kobe went crazy and rushed over, but Lian Feng shook his head.

I am sorry.

But... there's no need to say sorry.

The subsequent plot was an accident, but not for Lian Feng.

He completed the shot calmly, and the time reset to zero at the same time.

Cheers and silence.

Celebrate and be lonely.

All kinds.

One after another.

……

A few minutes later, Kobe came out from the arms of Lian Feng, then walked lonely to the edge of the field, and quickly disappeared from public view.

And Lian Feng looked at the back of Kobe leaving without saying a word.
