Chapter 115 (110 IV) Van Gundy's Inclusion

After the explosion in the first half, Yao Ming was also very tired.Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry too much. Dayao has often confronted Pulzbilla in team training these days.He believes that this new aid is enough to serve as a solid barrier for a good team's interior when he rests.

Redd is still tearing at the Lakers' defense with his trademark diligent running.Finally, Butler lost his mind for a while, Reid ran to the open space in the bottom corner, and Billups passed the ball in place in an instant.Reid didn't adjust to catch the ball and made a quick three-pointer.

Goal scored, 52:50.Reed made the Rockets' first three-pointer of the field.They were just 6 for 0 in the first half.

Seeing that the score was getting closer, Kobe, who was playing in the first half, finally stepped forward to take over the game.Bryant's left waist jammed Jefferson for the ball, and Atkins watched and passed the ball soon.Kobe caught the ball with a jump and pulled his right foot back to get stuck in the position. Turning over to the right was a jump shot.

Jefferson was caught off guard and didn't have time to make a defensive move.Goal scored, 54:50.

Yuan Fei couldn't help but sigh secretly, Wallace's departure is an irreparable loss for the team.Now that Tracy McGrady and Wallace are out of the perimeter defensive aces, Jefferson can only make do with it.

此时身在夏洛特的华莱士正愤怒不已。他拼尽全力贡献了22+10，可山猫队仍然16分惨败于此前6连败的联盟垫底烂队勇士。输掉这场球后山猫战绩为1胜4负，排名靠后。

Bryant is another post-up singles, this time Jefferson shrewdly took a step back to prevent Bryant's right turn.Unexpectedly, Kobe turned around on the center axis with his left foot, turned to face the basket to attack, and made a false move with his right foot to shake Jefferson's center of gravity and break through for a layup, 56:50.

The Rockets called a timeout. After the timeout, Yao Ming and Turkoglu were replaced, and Turkoglu defended Kobe.

Yao Ming took over the important task of scoring again, and repeatedly hit the inside.Soon Grant was replaced with 5 fouls, and Mihm also committed 4 fouls.But Kobe on the Lakers side was also unstoppable. He took out a skillful back hit, tapped his right foot, turned around to face Turkoglu and made a jumper, and it still went in!

结果科比这一节13投6中得了13分，姚明5投3中加上罚球也得了11分。75：72湖人保持领先优势。

"Play steadily, don't rush. The Rockets' Yao has physical problems, and he can't attack so aggressively in the fourth quarter." Jeff Van Gundy had a loud voice. When he spoke loudly to the players, the Rockets could almost hear him.Yuan Fei deliberately moved a little closer, wanting to hear what the Lakers were saying.

"That's right, we have the initiative. If we continue to play according to Coach Van Gundy's arrangement, we will definitely win!" Jason Bass' voice was relatively low and hoarse, and he looked very calm, which did not match his appearance and age.

Yuan Fei was dumbfounded, this guy actually interrupted, and Van Gundy actually acquiesced to his behavior without protesting.What's happening here?You must know that Van Gundy is not such an easy-talking person like Tomjanovich.

Jeff Van Gundy is 42 years old this year. He is not tall. He has big dark bags under his big eyes. He is bald and has a vicious expression all the year round.Others could tell from his face that this man was a stubborn and violent guy.He is the most famous devil coach and basketball maniac in the NBA. He treats players very harshly, has a loud voice and loves to curse.Yuan Fei remembers an anecdote from his previous life. Van Gundy hated players answering the phone very much, and stipulated that the mobile phone must be turned to silent in the locker room during the game.Once Alexander's boss' cell phone rang, Van Gundy yelled at the boss, "Get out!" Alexander also obeyed the rules and went out obediently.This shows how bad-tempered Van Gundy is and how stubborn his character is.The media once doubted whether Van Gundy and Kobe could coexist, because both of them had very bad tempers.

But right now, he actually tolerates this Jason Bass pointing, who is this little Bass, even Baldy Fan can handle it.The bigger problem is that in the memory of Yuan Fei's previous life, the Lakers management does not have such a person at all.Where did this guy come from?

Yuan Fei's thoughts are all on thinking about Bass, but he is a little careless about the game.When his attention gradually returned to the game, the two sides had already fought to the last 2 minutes, and the score was 95.

Billups missed a strong three-pointer and Mihm protected the rebound.In the fourth quarter, Yao Ming's physical fitness was weak, and the Rockets had no good solution. They shot a lot of three-pointers, but the shooting percentage was not high.

Kobe Bryant fouled Turkoglu and made 2 of 1 free throws. The Lakers took the lead again.

"Turkoglu is still a little slower." Yuan Fei thought secretly: "The team still needs a flank defender."

Reed made a fatal mistake and was intercepted by Williams.Reid counter-robbed on the spot and fouled.Williams made two free throws, 98:95.

Bryant turned over and missed a jumper, Reid grabbed the rebound but failed to push the fast break.The ball was still handed over to Yao Ming, who made it Mihm's fifth foul.Prior to this, both Grant and Cook had left the field with 6 fouls.

姚明2罚1中，98:96火箭仍落后2分。

The key is still handed over to Kobe. Kobe suddenly attracted the defense and then scored the ball. Odom got the ball and caused Bosh's foul. 2 of 1 free throws, 3 points behind, 19 seconds left!
Tang Shuai called a timeout and Wang Zhizhi was replaced.

The ball successfully ran out of tactics. Reed got the ball open and shot a three-pointer. Unfortunately, it was a little shorter and popped out from the front.Billups fouled immediately, Butler made 2 free throws, and the game lost its suspense.

100:95，湖人凭借着最后2分钟的出色发挥，客场战胜了卫冕冠军火箭。科比发挥平平仅有21+11+3，奥多姆21+13+5。火箭方面姚明砍下了全场最高的34分还有8个篮板，比卢普斯砍下15分还送出了全场最多的9次助攻，可他们却未能带队取胜。

After losing this game, the Rockets' record was only 3 wins and 4 losses. They only overwhelmed the Kings with the same record in the win-loss relationship and ranked tenth in the West, temporarily falling out of the top eight in the West.

***
Van Gundy nodded to the winning Lakers and even gave Bryant a hug.It seems that contrary to everyone's expectations, this iron handsome and Kobe, the iron man, got along unexpectedly well.There is a reason for Fan Tuzi to be harsh on others and himself.This is because he loves basketball from the bottom of his heart, but he is limited by his talent and cannot become an excellent basketball player, so he pins this love on the players.

(Small knowledge: How much does Van Gundy love basketball? After graduating from high school, he studied at Yale University, a prestigious school. However, because he was not selected for Yale’s basketball school team, Xiao Fan resolutely decided to transfer schools and joined the relatively small Nazarene University. He became the main point guard of the school team. In 1996, he was selected into the school team Hall of Fame)
When a reporter interviewed Kobe after the game, he happened to ask him about getting along with the new head coach.Kobe replied: "I came to the arena for training at four o'clock in the morning one day, and found that Van Gundy had come to the office early to study the game video. From this moment on, his personality charm conquered me."

Van Gundy also responded with a smile: "Kobe is the most diligent athlete I have ever seen. In him, I saw tenacity, bravery, and love for basketball."

Van Gundy and Kobe have completely different identities, appearances, personalities, and skin colors, and even basketball talents are very different, but they see their own shadows in each other.These two football idiots and football fanatics, based on their love for basketball, conquered each other.

(Today's third update)

　Don't forget your original intention, the love of basketball is the most essential pursuit of fans.Many people don't like Van Gundy or Kobe, which is understandable, and others have no right to interfere with personal preferences.But in any case, the two of them deserve our admiration for their dedication to basketball.
