On March 1, the Philadelphia 76ers played against the Los Angeles Lakers at home.

This is the second time the two teams have met this season. The first time they met was at the Lakers' home court. The Philadelphia 76ers were a weak team at the time, so they lost miserably. Yao Ming did not play at the time.

Tonight is different. The complete Philadelphia 76ers will face the complete Lakers. This will be a preview of the finals.

"BEAT-LA!"

"BEAT-LA!"

"BEAT-LA!"

The whole place was filled with shouts, and the fans chanted slogans to defeat the Lakers.

Kongbu led his coaching staff into the stadium with great momentum.

The five assistant coaches he currently has are all experienced assistant coaches, such as Stan Van Gundy, who has even been an assistant coach in the league for more than ten years.

In the past, Kongbu's coaching staff looked relatively shabby, but now it is different. Several people stood behind Kongbu, making Kongbu look extra professional.

"Sam, do your gold-rimmed glasses have any prescription? Or are they just decorations?"

"I think I should get one too, and my temperament will immediately improve by several levels."

extroverted Stan Van Gundy joked to Sam Mitchell.

Not only was he curious, but Kongbu was also confused. He remembered that Mitchell didn't wear glasses as a player, so how could he become so polite after becoming a coach?

"Forget it, Stan. Even if you wear gold-rimmed glasses, you still look like a wild boar with no worries about food and clothing."

"Why is Jeff so skinny and why are you so fat? It seems like your father must love you more and leave all the delicious food to you."

Brian Hill grinned.

"Of course, no one will like that guy who looks so sinister."

Stan Van Gundy said arrogantly.

"Okay, let's all concentrate, we can't lose tonight."

"I don't want to see Phil laughing after the game again."

Kongbu clapped his hands, signaling everyone to stop chatting and start focusing on the game.

The tactical arrangement for Kongbu tonight is to focus on Fisher.

Let Iverson hold the ball and take advantage of Fisher's shortcomings in isolation. The bastard didn't take advantage of it. He knew Fisher's shortcomings but didn't take advantage of them. Kongbu couldn't do that kind of thing.

Then let Gerrard mainly defend Kobe.

Gerrard has the best defensive ability at the third position in the league today. Even if he is only a rookie who has played less than a season, his current defensive strength is definitely stronger than Wu Sheng.

Even the beast Artest, who is gradually entering his peak period, may not be as good as Gerrard in terms of pure defensive ability.

It's perfect for him to face off against Kobe.

This is almost the strongest shield in the league facing off against the strongest spear. Kongbu is looking forward to the outcome of the matchup between the two.

As for the duel between the two inside towers, Kongbu thought that Yao Ming might still have some disadvantages against Austria. After all, it was Austria. It would be very difficult for Yao Ming to have a clear advantage.

But in the duel at the fourth position, Kongbu was very confident in Randolph. The rough-skinned Fatty Lan faced Malone. First of all, Malone couldn't hold the ball and get to the basket. If he wanted to participate in the offense, he could only use

CIC.

Once Malone makes a crazy shot, his threat will be much less.

Kongbu is very confident about this game. Facing the entire Philadelphia 76ers, he doesn't think the Lakers can withstand it.

Soon, the game on the field officially began.

Fisher may also know that tonight he will be the focus of Iverson's attention, so he is extremely careful when dribbling. Basically, he passes the ball whenever he can and minimizes the frequency of dribbling.

Just after passing the midfield line, seeing Iverson pressing forward, he immediately passed the ball to Kobe.

Gerrard waved his arms and stepped forward to defend. Kobe shot a fadeaway mid-range shot and scored two points.

In the offensive round of the Philadelphia 76ers, Iverson directly singled out Fisher. After passing Fisher, he stopped near the free throw line and made a jump shot, which was also a two-pointer.

Turning his head, Kobe shot again, again with a picturesque fadeaway, and another two points.

Kongbu frowned, what the hell is this?

Gerrard's defense was fine, he never lost his position, and his timing to take off and block shots was just right, but Kobe still scored, and two more in a row.

He thought that when Gerald defended Kobe, he would press Kobe on the floor and rub him, completely locking Kobe down and letting him score 0172 tonight, but the reality was completely different from what he thought.

In fact, Kongbu still doesn't understand Kobe. If he really knew Kobe, he should know that Kobe has never been afraid of these tall and strong perimeter defenders.

There have been many players in NBA history who are known as Kobe Bryant's finishers.

For example, Battier of the Rockets was famous for his eye-sealing defense against Kobe Bryant, but it was actually a good idea but not a useful one.

For example, Uncle Bao of the Spurs is famous for his dirty defense, but how could he dare to use his weak kick against a league star like Kobe Bryant? His physical fitness is not that good, so the defensive effect is not good either.

There was also Laga Bell who choked Kobe. He locked up Kobe and gave him a double kill.

Reuben Patterson, the self-proclaimed Grim Reaper and nicknamed Kobe Bryant's Terminator, went to a workout with the Los Angeles Lakers together. He was dissatisfied with Kobe's special treatment by the team, and resented Kobe in his heart. Later, Kobe scored consecutive goals in one season.

After 40 points, he was terminated. Kobe only scored 36 points in that game.

As a result, Patterson swelled.

Needless to say, Jaylen Rose, who now plays for the Pacers, had Kobe Bryant score 81 points on his head when he played for the Raptors.

Jaylen Rose is no small figure. He is also the Pacers' scoring leader. Even if his defensive efficiency is not top-notch, it is still at the top level at the third position.

When Gerrard was at his peak from 2005 to 2012, it wasn't like he never guarded Kobe. Unfortunately, Kobe still shot 45% against him.

None of these players are little guys.

On the contrary, when smaller players defend Kobe, their defensive efficiency will become higher, making Kobe more uncomfortable.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The three players who can really be said to be very good at guarding Kobe are Eric Snow, Combs’ former disciple, Doug Christie, and those who have not yet entered the league.

Tony Allen.

These three people are all over 1.9 meters tall, much shorter than Kobe.

Kobe himself admitted that the most difficult defender he faced in the league was Tony Allen. This was not nonsense, because when he faced Tony Allen, both his statistics and shooting percentage were far below normal levels.

When Jordan praised Richmond, that was just to disgust Reggie Miller, and when Kobe Bryant praised Tony Allen, that was pure praise.

No one can explain exactly why such an unreasonable thing happened, not even veteran fans like Kong Bu can figure it out.

After a few minutes of play, the inside twin towers of both sides had almost no presence. The game became a confrontation between the outside players of both sides.

Kobe's efficiency remains very high, unbelievably high. The fans are teasing him about iron oxide and iron oxide tonight, and his shooting percentage remains above 70%.

Fortunately, Iverson had a huge advantage against Fisher, and Reggie Miller had a huge advantage against Rick Fox. The Philadelphia 76ers were not at a disadvantage, and the two sides were almost in a draw.

Ao Pang is very frustrated.

He thought he was completely capable of beating Yao Ming, but he just couldn't get the shot.

If Kobe's touch was not good, he could still clamor for the ball and hit it himself, but now that Kobe's shooting percentage is soaring, no matter how thick-skinned he is, he is too embarrassed to ask for the ball directly.

All I can do is wait for Kobe to miss and grab the offensive rebound for a second offense.

Unfortunately, Kobe's shooting percentage was too high, and he couldn't grab Yao Ming's rebounds, so in the opening few minutes, he didn't even get a single shot.

Not only did he not take a shot, he didn't even have a free throw opportunity. After all, he didn't have the ball in his hands, so there was really no need to send him to the free throw line.

Yao Ming's personality is not as expressive as O'Pang, and he feels that the current situation is quite good. It seems that the two sides are almost tied, but the Lakers are completely relying on Kobe's super hot touch, and he will not be able to do it all night

Keep it feeling like this.

As long as his touch is gone, the Lakers will immediately fall behind.

If he could maintain this feeling all night long, Kongbu felt that Kobe would not be able to score more than 80 points tonight.

The showdown between Ma Long and Fatty Lan is also quite interesting.

When Malone first came to the Lakers last season, he felt a little cautious and kept a low profile. Even when he met Kongbu, his mortal enemy, he didn't express much.

But this season, he didn't know where the link was wrong again, and he became rough.

Facing rookie Randolph, he made big moves. Unfortunately, Randolph was so fat that Malone's small moves were of no avail.

Moreover, Randolph's temper is not a vegetarian, and he does not tolerate Malone.

"You old guy should be in a wheelchair. You only have this strength? You haven't eaten?"

Malone elbowed Randolph in the offensive round, and Randolph said directly.

"Rookie, when I ruled this alliance, you were still lying on your mother's chest sucking milk."

"When you reach my height, you will know how ridiculous your words are."

Malone glanced at Randolph disdainfully.

Randolph was in his early twenties, more than fifteen years younger than Malone, almost a generation apart.

"Domination? Did I not wake up? When did you rule the alliance?"

"I have only made it to the finals twice after playing for twenty years. In 1997, I was beaten to death by Jordan. In 1998, I met the Raptors and was beaten unconscious on the court by Kongbu and others."
