Chapter 405: Riding on O'Neill's Lore! (Seeking a Monthly Ticket)
The eyes of the Lakers players all focused on Harris, and Harris thought for a moment and made up his mind.
"Kobe, you set the time to 8 seconds. If the Supersonics double-team early, you will play the ball."
"In 8 seconds, Hori raised the pick and roll with Kobe, and then Kobe, you pass the ball to Robert who pulls out!"
"Robert, if Kobe attracts all the defenders, you shoot a three-pointer! If Kemp or Payton switches in front of you, you give the ball to Shaq in the penalty area!"
"Shaq, the last ball, you get it done."
As soon as Harris' words fell, the atmosphere of the Lakers became stagnant.
"Okay, coach. Look at me." O'Neill patted his chest.
But other players turned their attention to Bryant.
Kobe pursed his lips and remained silent.
This season, he has killed many strong opponents. When O'Neal is not around, he will play all the key shots. And since O'Neal traveled east in his last life, he has never tried to hand over key shots to others. Even everyone on the planet knows that Kobe will make the final shot. He is not afraid of two people defending and three people defending him, and he has completed legendary goals time and time again.
This time he's going to make a ball for that big fat guy O'Neill?
It's not that Kobe is unwilling to hand over the final shot to others. Kobe still puts winning as the first element. But he always felt that his chances of scoring were far greater than anyone else's. This is the invincible mentality cultivated one ball at a time in his 20-year career. Even if he passes the ball, it should be that he finds that his teammates have a better chance to pass the ball actively instead of attacking another teammate.
The task of attacking the fortress, the task of the key ball. Kobe doesn't think anyone is better than himself!
Most of the players on the Lakers also think the same way. Eddie Jones and Kobe on the court are old partners. He hesitated to speak for a long time, but finally shook his head.
Bruce Bowen looked at Kobe, as if Kobe ordered us to reverse.
Horry replaced Campbell at a critical moment. He was also dug by Kobe. He frowned. Although he was not dissatisfied, he couldn't understand Harris' arrangement.
In Horry's view, although Kobe is young, he is indeed the most killer player on this team. No one can complete the lore in front of Michael Jordan before Olajuwon, and Kobe has completed it in one season. Then the chances of him facing Payton to complete the lore will never be less. Horry can understand that Harris pays attention to the status of the team, and the boss of the team is always O'Neal.
But the number of inside superstars to complete the final key ball is not too many. Even for Olajuwon, he doesn't make every key shot by himself. The inside line is inherently limited by the offensive range. He needs to be in position and catch the ball before he can attack, and he may fall into double-teaming. The closer to the basket, of course, the higher the probability of being flanked.
Harris instantly sensed the dissatisfaction of the Lakers players, but after all the words were spoken, O'Neal responded. Could it be possible to take it back at this time?
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight.
Bryant glanced at O'Neal and returned to the court.
Hope you can get in. If you can't score, don't even think about having the ball for key goals in the future.
The right to command lies with Harris, but the right to operate is always in the hands of the point guard.
"The Lakers serve from the sideline! Supersonics 104:103 Lakers!"
"In 23 seconds, the Lakers will definitely press the last attack time. Sure enough, they made Kobe circle two circles. O'Neal and Horry created enough space for Kobe to receive the ball."
"Kobe catches the ball! 4 steps away from the three-point line and stands slightly sideways! And in front of him is last year's best defensive player Glove Payton!"
Kobe and Payton looked at each other. At the beginning of the game, Payton would press Kobe tightly, but now he dare not get too close. He has been broken by Kobe too many times with his rhythm and ball-handling skills. For the last ball, play it safe.
"Kobe, let's shoot. I don't believe you can hit a three-pointer? Or do you want to break through? Come on, my uncle is here to spread his legs, waiting for you to come! Come if you have the ability"
Payton's thoughts have been completely blocked by Kobe, and Kobe looked around the court.
O'Neal tangled with Kemp and Jim McElvine in the paint.
Horry is waiting for the time, ready to pull out.
Eddie Jones and Bowen crouched in the corner.
Supersonics have no tendency to flank! George Karl decided to trust their team boss, Gary Payton at the last moment!
Single defense!
Single defense against Kobe!
20 seconds!
15 seconds!
12 seconds! Holly moved!
Pull out, pick and roll.
Kobe cut two steps and was instantly blocked by Payton. Then Kobe passed the ball behind his back, evaded Jim McElvine's defense with a tricky angle, and let the basketball get into Horry's hands.
"Brilliant pass! This pass really opened my eyes to MAGIC!"
"Reasonable! Kobe is reasonable! He didn't fight alone! Be a lone hero!"
"Horry catches the ball! How will BIG SHOT handle this ball?"
In 8 seconds, Horry raised the ball with both hands in a high position, making a gesture to shoot.
Jim McIlvaine hurried forward to interfere.
"Here!" O'Neill's expression was exaggerated, turned over and stopped Kemp behind him, and opened his hands for the ball!
In 7 seconds, Horry passed the ball!
In 6 seconds, O'Neal received the ball! Catch the ball with one hand!
Leaning sideways on Kemp! The two prehistoric murderers collided violently, and the sound of sneakers rubbing against the floor was sharp and piercing!
5 seconds! O'Neill strikes again! Schramf goes to double-team!
4 seconds! No chance! O'Neal failed to knock Kemp away twice, but before he even made a shot, the Supersonics' double-team was about to form, and it was even more difficult to score at that time! Roll over and throw the ball with a soft touch!
One-handed back turn and small throw!
3 seconds!
"Come down!" Kemp roared, pulled the green onion from the dry land, jumped up, raised his right hand high, and blocked the shot!
O'Neill's small throw was slightly rubbed between the fingers!
The trajectory of basketball has changed!
2 seconds!
DUANG! The basketball hits the rim and bounces off the side!
"Oops! Didn't make it!" O'Neill's eyes widened, and he panicked. Is he going to be a sinner at the Great Western Forum? Is his first lore to join the Lakers about to fail?
"Rebound!" Kemp yelled as he looked at the direction of the basketball going in the opposite direction!
A figure cut into the penalty area like a thunderbolt from outside the three-point line!
1 second!
Kobe jumped high, and the middle of the crowd controlled the basketball! Go on gliding! Riding on the back of the unsuspecting O'Neal with legs spread, and then smashing the basketball into the hoop with one hand!
beep! Go in! Light!
Lore! Kobe made up the dunk lore! ! !
Sonics 104:105 Lakers!
Kobe rode on O'Neal's back and smashed the ball into the basket in anger!
O'Neal threw Kobe into the sky! accurate? Does not exist, Kobe saved him! Without Kobe, he would be the number one factor in losing this game!
The supersonic speed and the technical station reacted overtime, but the technical station announced that the goal is valid!
G1! Kobe lore! Take it down!
