Surprise? Secret?
There were only more than 3 minutes left in the whole game, but the Pistons were still 15 points behind. However, the Pistons' generals did not give up, but fought tenaciously. No one wanted to lose the game at home, and no one wanted the seven consecutive wins he had accumulated to be over. Since even these players did not give up at all, then Pistons' head coach John Custer would naturally not be stupid enough to hit the morale of the players.
When Zhou Yi successfully played Derek Fisher alone and narrowed the score gap to 10 points, Lakers star Kobe once again stood up and hit a three-pointer against double-team defense.
"It's worthy of being a superstar. The more critical the touch is, the more intense the touch is." Hong Ming looked at Kobe in admiration and said excitedly.
"Where are you from?" After hearing Hong Ming's words, Mo Keer was immediately angry. She went up and twisted Hong Ming's pig's trotter, which made Hong Ming scream in pain.
Lin Qixiao gave Hong Ming a blank look, sighed in his heart, and said, "You guy, you really can't tell the point."
Hong Ming smacked his lips depressedly, trying to say something, but when he saw Mo Keer's angry look, he immediately swallowed the words to his mouth.
Mo Keer was very nervous at this time, watching Zhou Yi fighting on the court, clenching his pink fists tightly. Now, she unknowingly likes basketball and likes the tense atmosphere.
Zhou Yi broke through with the ball, got rid of Derek Fisher's defense, rushed to the basket, and then completed a layup against Kobe, causing Kobe's foul.
"Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi..." The fans who appeared were shocked to see Zhou Yi actually caused two plus one to Kobe, and immediately shouted Zhou Yi's name excitedly. The scene made Hong Ming and others envious.
"This little guy is good." Kobe and McGrady stood side by side and smiled at McGrady.
"Well, Zhou has great potential and a high basketball talent." McGrady replied with a smile.
"Oh? Even you will praise his basketball talent. It seems that this little guy is indeed very outstanding." After hearing McGrady's words, Kobe was a little surprised and then smiled.
In the NBA, no one doesn't envy McGrady's talent. Even the "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan praised McGrady's basketball talent. It can be said that McGrady's basketball talent is famous in the entire NBA history. Now, even McGrady praises Zhou Yi's basketball talent, no wonder Kobe is a little surprised.
Zhou Yi scored free throws and scored extra free throws. The home fans once again gave their cheers to Zhou Yi without hesitation.
However, the next game disappointed the home fans.
Kobe, Kobe again, scored 7 points in less than 40 seconds, which was equivalent to basically destroying the hope of the Pistons' victory.
The home fans were suddenly a little discouraged. The chances for winning this game were too slim. After all, the whole game was about to end in less than 2 minutes.
However, the Pistons' players still had no intention of giving up, so Pistons head coach John Custer did not replace the main players. However, if the Pistons did not replace the main players, it does not mean that the Lakers would not replace the starting lineup. After all, this is a back-to-back game, and they are all away games. Therefore, Lakers head coach Phil Jackson saw that he had already led by 13 points, and there was only 1 minute and 31 seconds left, so he replaced the Lakers boss Kobe. But just in case, Phil Jackson put the other main players on the court, and even replaced Paul Gasol, who had replaced the previous rest, after all, the victory and loss have not been decided yet.
As expected, Phil Jackson did not expect, after Kobe left the field, the Pistons' counterattack became even more fierce, especially the Chinese kid who scored 5 points in a row. But after all, the 13-point lead is not something that can catch up with just by catching up. Besides, the time is still so short, and Paul Gasol who was replaced is not a vegetarian.
In the end, the Pistons still failed to overtake the score and lost the game at 92:87, but the loss was not very ugly, and they only lost 5 points. But no matter how many points they lost, they still lost. However, Zhou Yi's wonderful performance at the last moment made everyone's eyes shine, which was the only two points of the Pistons' game. Zhou Yi's performance throughout the game was also good, especially his performance at the last moment, which made the audience across the country know the young Chinese player of the Detroit Pistons. Zhou Yi was also famous because of this game, and some business people also attracted Zhou Yi's attention. Of course, this is a later story.
The Pistons did not get discouraged because they had worked hard, and they could only blame their own strength if they lost. After all, they had tried their best in terms of attitude. But they still felt a little regretful, after all, the efforts they put in didn't get the corresponding reward. The Pistons general manager Joe Dumas and head coach John Custer were not only not angry, but also praised the players, and told the players that the Pistons boss Mr. Bill Davidson was also very satisfied with everyone's performance.
After receiving these affirmative praises, the Pistons players also felt much more comfortable.
After the game, Kobe and McGrady hugged, then walked towards Zhou Yi. Of course, Zhou Yi knew Kobe's intentions, so he walked towards Kobe, and then hugged Kobe very close.
"Little guy, work hard, you will definitely have your own world. I highly recommend you!" Kobe said with a smile.
"Thank you, Kobe, you are my role model for growing up." Zhou Yi replied politely.
Kobe smiled faintly when he heard this, then stole the farewell with the Pistons and headed towards the visiting team locker room with his teammates.
After the game, the news conference between the Pistons and the Lakers was very lively, which can be said to be very lively. Because Zhou Yi performed very well in this game, almost all the scores were about to catch up with Kobe. At the press conference, Zhou Yi became the protagonist. Although he did not receive much attention as Kobe, it also made other members of the Pistons envious.
"Zhou is the best rookie I have ever seen. Unfortunately, my touch feel is so good today. I can't believe it. Haha. Otherwise, I think we will lose the game." Kobe also joked with a smile on his face. To be honest, his touch feel is really so good today, especially at the last moment.
Zhou Yi has also accepted interviews from many media reporters. Since he has accumulated a lot of experience in dealing with reporters, it is not difficult for Zhou Yi to answer.
