From today on is the king

Chapter 1161. 1160. The drug-addicted combination
Yao Ming and Kobe are tied together now.

If Kobe can't make a difference in the playoffs when he is partnered with Yao Ming, it proves that he can't do without O'Neal.

He averaged 36.1 points, 5.2 rebounds and 6.8 assists per game, and averaged 27 shots per game. If he performs well in the playoffs, his statistics will prove his strength.

If the performance in the playoffs is not good, it can only prove that he is a statistic brush.

On Yao Ming's side, as time went by, the controversy over his departure from the Rockets became more and more controversial.

It's not that his performance is not good enough. He averaged 22 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 2.5 blocks per game. Yao Ming's performance this year is not inferior to O'Neal's. Even with Kobe's help, he is even better.

However, the more time passed, the better Yao Ming performed, and the more media and fans wanted to know more about why he was traded to the Lakers. The Rockets were concerned about the Chinese market and did not talk about it.

Therefore, both Yao Ming and Kobe are under a lot of pressure. When they got together, the media and fans set them the goal of guaranteeing the Western Conference Finals. After all, they just cooperated, so the requirements should not be too high.

But in the case of the Spurs, Mavericks, and Suns in the West, this requirement is somewhat unreasonable. Who made them a team in Angel City? With the No. [-] center in the West and the No. [-] shooting guard in the league, the Western Conference Finals is what people want to see.

However, the combination of Kobe and Yao Ming is obviously not just for the sake of making a difference in the Western Conference playoffs, there are more important things!

Defeat Liu Mang!

The last time the Lakers lost at home to the Eagles, this time they don't want to lose again. If they really reach the finals and meet the Eagles, they will lose two games in a row in the regular season, and they will be under too much pressure!
Must win!

……

……

With the roar of Rasheed Wallace, the Eagles devil home is open!
Liu Mang came to the field after spreading the chalk powder, not only did not hear that the opponent was suppressed by the devil at home, but heard another system prompt.

"Ding...Kobe Bryant has entered a state of concentration. He personally thinks that the more the away fans boo him, the more they are afraid of him. Features: Cold-blooded trigger, enter the most calm mode."

The snake!Is it really cold-blooded!

For other stars, even if they are not affected by the atmosphere of the visiting team, the reminder Liu Mang received is that this star has a certain ability and has confidence in himself. This guy... feels too good about himself!

Tracy McGrady went to greet and high-five the opponent's starters, and the Lakers sent Fisher, Kobe, Luke Walton, Lamar Odom, and Yao Ming to the starting lineup.

The Eagles sent Liu Mang, McGrady, Prince, Rasheed Wallace, and Kwame Brown to the starting lineup.

When the relationship with the other party was good, it was Liu Mang who went to say hello to the other party, but McGrady thought it was better to say goodbye, he went well, Liu Mang was too capable of causing trouble.

The fans are also very puzzled, the Eagles and the Lakers seem to be incompatible, and Liu Mang and Kobe often fight each other...

In most cases, Liu Mang bullied Kobe to save face. Kobe kept his mouth shut when he was not as honorable or as good as his opponent, and kept his mouth shut.

It's just that Kobe didn't expect Liu Mang to be this kind of person, and he became addicted to bullying him!

The media described the relationship between Liu Mang and Kobe Bryant as bad, but the true Eagles and Lakers fans found that the relationship between the two teams seems to be good, especially Liu Mang and Kobe, who were photographed going to restaurants together for dinner many times, and Nike’s publicity about how hard Liu Mang and Kobe trained together in the summer.

But it's true that the two are incompatible on the court. Seeing Kobe's choice and devouring appearance, and Liu Mang's arrogant and joking expression when facing a strong opponent, the hearts of the fans have been suspended.

The Suns, Spurs, and Supersonics have been swept by the Eagles. The Mavericks played against the Eagles for the second time and were also killed by the three Eagles who restrained them. Does the Lakers have a chance to beat the Eagles?
The fans at the scene definitely don't want to see this scene, but most fans in front of the TV want to see the Lakers beat the Eagles and bring some hope to the West.

In the past two years, the Western Conference team has been miserable. It seems that the regular season is as fierce as a tiger. As a result, the Eagles are the number one in the league, and they have been trampled by the Eagles for two years!
The players of the two teams on the field are very focused now. The Eagles want to sweep the opponent's new combination, and the Lakers want to beat the Eagles to regain their confidence!
Liu Mang watched Kwame Brown walking to the middle circle. He was almost half a head shorter than Yao Ming, and his size was even smaller. He mourned for this little brother.

Kwame Brown wanted to gain more weight, but Liu Wei and the coaching staff stopped him, mainly Liu Wei, who wanted Kwame Brown to have a better career length. Kwame Brown just turned 24 last month, that is, he was only 34 years old when he needed a center with excellent mobility ten years later. To deal with Yao Ming, who may be stronger in the future, and to deal with James, a tall backup center is enough.

Kwame Brown looked at Yao Ming in front of him and hinted that he should not be cowardly!
The stronger his ability is, Kwame Brown feels how terrifying these super centers are!
It’s true that Kwame Brown is the No. [-] pick, and it’s true that his physical fitness is not inferior to Howard, but he was delayed for two years, which made him lose the opportunity to be trained as a main scorer like Howard, and with small hands, it is difficult to become Howard’s type.

For Kwame Brown, it is more suitable to be a tall version of Ben Wallace with enhanced scoring ability, but there are some differences. Kwame Brown’s single defense is better than Ben Wallace, and his defense is worse. Ben Wallace actually played power forward in the last two years of partnering with Rasheed Wallace. Now the Hawks often have Rasheed Wallace and Kwame Brown take turns playing center.

This season Liu Mang thinks it's okay, but next season he will definitely need to fill the position of a strong forward. It's okay if David Lee enters quickly, otherwise he will have to trade for reinforcements.

……

At 08:30, the referee calculated the time, and at exactly 08:30, the whistle for the start of the game was blown and the ball was thrown into the air.

Kwame Brown wins first!

With only a few advantages, Kwame Brown seized the first one and pushed the ball to the back. Liu Mang received the ball and pushed forward.

Kobe defended himself against Liu Mang.

The first attack of the Eagles was Liu Mang's singles in most cases, but this time Liu Mang decisively gave the ball to McGrady!

The little blacksmith looked like he was going to eat people, Liu Mang expressed his fear, and began to run around the basket without the ball.

Kobe felt something was wrong, but he didn't hesitate to stick to Liu Mang and not give Liu Mang a chance to run out of space. Kwame Brown went up to pick and roll Kobe, relying on his strong body, and squeezed through Liu Mang tightly, biting Liu Mang tightly.

McGrady saw that Liu Mang was being chased very closely by Kobe, like a mad wolf chasing its prey. Liu Mang couldn't get rid of Kobe's defense and ran out of position, so McGrady decided to come by himself.

McGrady was also very excited when he played against the Lakers. He lowered his waist and slapped the ball back and forth on the floor with his long arms. The frequency was very fast. It seemed that the ball was patted back after leaving the floor for about ten centimeters, showing excellent ball control ability.

Luke Wharton swallowed his saliva, not daring to be careless at all, ready to move at any time.

After McGrady found the feeling, he began to break through!Accelerate to the right!
Luke Walton has a very high golf quotient, and he immediately judged the direction of McGrady's breakthrough...

Then it was passed...

Luke Walton's head tells his legs he knows how to defend, but his legs tell him you don't know how to defend...

Luke Wharton did keep up with the first step. McGrady's first step was at an average level, but the second and third steps became faster and faster. The huge steps rushed directly from the three-point line to the three-second zone in three steps!
Facing Yao Ming's early judgment to break through the defense, McGrady hit the ground and passed the ball to the basket, and Kwame Brown received the ball!
It’s a pretty good pass. Although McGrady’s assists this season are only half of last season, it’s not that he can’t pass anymore, but that the team doesn’t need him to hold the ball as much. The pass is very beautiful.

"Snapped"

"bang"

"beep"

Three consecutive voices sounded, and Kwame Brown was knocked down and sat on the ground!

Yao Ming was very focused. He immediately judged that McGrady was going to pass the ball, so the moment the ball left McGrady's hands, he immediately turned around and rushed forward desperately. When Kwame Brown had already pressed the ball to the top of the basket, he slapped the ball on the basket!
And the hat is clean!Although the joint action knocked Kwame Brown over, but first touched the ball, the ball hit the basket and bounced above the backboard and fell out of bounds!
It's all over!
When Liu Mang saw McGrady rushing to the inside, he stopped on the left side of the free throw line to watch Kwame Brown dunk. Unexpectedly, Yao Ming gave him a big hot pot!
Seeing the miserable appearance of Kwame Brown getting up, Liu Mang felt that Yao Ming is very wild today!
Kobe is as crazy as a wolf chasing its prey, Yao Ming defends fiercely at the basket...

Drug taking combination, this is really taking drugs!

The Eagles still had the ball, and the ball finally touched Yao Ming's hand, but the Eagles still had 5 seconds left in the attack clock.

Rasheed Wallace went to serve, Liu Mang ran to the bottom corner to catch the ball under Kobe's defense, and shot a three-pointer...

Hasty shot missed, Odom grabbed a defensive rebound!
