i really don't want to play basketball

Chapter 44 [The future is mine]

"Shayne started the game, mainly playing the pick-and-roll at the beginning, Stoudemire covered in the middle, Shine could choose to attack by himself, or he could attract the defense and pass to Shaq in the three-second zone. Shaq squeezed Bynum, he created Out of the space, the basketball came to him, dunk, Shark is not old, he is still the king of Staples!"

Barkley explained passionately, maybe because of his history of no championships, and the fact that the Suns are his old club, now he is extremely biased towards the Suns and Shine.

Shain is very clear about the Lakers' advantages. The triangle offense is still a singles tactic for stars. After Gasol joined, the Lakers have the most suitable central axis.

Now their running-in is smoother. Although the Suns are full of passion today, they don't feel good.

Since the first quarter, they have maintained a 3-5 point difference behind the Lakers, and the Suns have never surpassed.

Shain received a pass from Nash and hovered near the three-point line. Hill was near the free throw line, mainly making mid-range shots. Kobe Bryant in the corner was staring at Shain eagerly.

Obviously Xia Yin can open up the Lakers' space better with the ball and create better offensive space, but Xia Yin does not have this ability.

This is embarrassing.

Xia Yin retreated with the ball to open up space, and stretched out three fingers to indicate the No. [-] tactic.

Hill moved to the left and took Odom away, but the inside was already huddled, and Shane lobped the ball into the lane and pushed Kobe out of the way.

If there is no chance, let's fight hand to hand!

Come to fight.

There was chaos at the free throw line for a while, and Stoudemire wanted to layup after receiving the ball, but a bunch of big hands were overwhelming.

He lowered his head and saw Xia Yin, and a ball was passed back to Xia Yin again. After catching the ball, he jumped up without hesitation.

All the strength of his body was pressed together, and he dunked with a "bang" through Stoudemire and Gasol.

After landing, Xia Yin stared at Kobe with cold eyes.

[Don't think that this will subdue me! 〕

Kobe glared at him: [I will reply! 〕

In the next round, Bynum and Gasol desperately created space in the interior, Kobe went in obliquely, circled from the basket, turned around and scored with a back button, and roared while pulling his jersey after landing.

"The Lakers and Suns played very fiercely. After Xia Yin dunked, Kobe chose to respond. This game was exciting."

Yu Jia said with bright eyes.

"On the whole, the Suns' lineup is actually better than the Lakers', but the flaws are also bigger. Plus, with Kobe here, the Lakers have a higher ceiling, so it's hard to say what this game will look like in the end, but it is. A great game.”

Yu Jia looked at Teacher Zhang in surprise, "You Weiping Bryant, you didn't start playing today?"This is unreasonable!

When the Suns attacked, Nash directly accelerated. Xia Yin ran towards the frontcourt, with Kobe following closely behind him.

But Nash's pass was still accurately delivered to Shane's hands. Shane braked suddenly, bent his knees, jumped up quickly after the emergency stop, and shot a three-pointer.

"Xia Yin made a three-pointer and hit it!"

After this round, the Suns 21:22 Lakers, only 1 point away.

Xia Yin seldom did the kind of sudden stop and pull-up three-pointer just now, because he hurt his knee. Think about the stars who retired because of knee problems, Xia Yin is not that stupid.

But now the Lakers' overall offense and Kobe's superb performance have made Xia Yin feel the pressure.

He had to fully use his body to create more points.

In the new round, Kobe took the ball with both hands, took two tentative steps and swayed left and right, trying to lure Xia Yin, but Xia Yin was very calm, lowered his center of gravity and remained as still as a mountain. This is the defensive experience he summed up from the video tape.

Kobe tested again, suddenly swatted the ball with his right hand and took a step to the right, a very explosive step, but Xia Yin's body did not shake, just paused slightly.

Shane swayed his shoulders slightly to the right, but didn't move his feet. Kobe was doing an offensive fake, and Shane was also doing a defensive fake, pretending to shift his weight to the right, but he was still following Kobe's rhythm.

In this round, the two of them had as many as [-] minds, but it was a very fast moment.

Kobe dribbled the ball under his crotch again and sent the ball to his left hand. He changed the cross-step dribbling to break through the left side, but Xia Yin's steps swayed slightly and blocked his way again.

The reaction was quick enough. He didn't have such a strong defensive ability a month ago. After thinking about it for a while, Kobe gritted his teeth and relied on Xia Yin to break through in the low post.

When he reached the low 45-degree position, Kobe suddenly stopped and carried Xia Yin with his back. Using his left foot as the axis, he took a step to the left with his right foot. Seeing that something was wrong, he took it back again and directly forced his back to shoot.

In this round of defense, Xia Yin has done his best, but sometimes defense is not omnipotent, and some goals must be scored, just like this goal.

The basketball went into the net hollow, and there were cheers from the scene.

A picturesque shot is always pleasing to the eye, and when the ball is scored, the feeling is double the joy.

"Rookie, you can't stop me!"

Xia Yin snorted, "How dare you say that's not a ball?"

Kobe raised his head slightly, "I'm in!"

Xia Yin turned his head and ignored him. If he really came to the Lakers, he would have been pissed off.

Some people are like this.

It can only be seen from a distance, not close contact.

Kobe is one of the representative figures.

A paranoid, obsessive-compulsive, cheapskate, jealous man, and a guy who can't afford to lose, whoever meets him will feel uncomfortable!

The Suns trailed the Lakers by 31 points at 33:2, ending the first quarter.

夏因首节得到了7分1篮板1抢断，科比则是拿下了13分2篮板1助攻，今天的科比火力很强，关键是真的很准。

In the second quarter, Xia Yin continued to stay on the court with a group of people he was most familiar with. This time it was different. He began to become the Suns and suppress the Lakers. After all, the Lakers' substitutes were all rotten fish.

By the time Kobe came on the court, the Lakers were already 5 points behind, but he wasn't too anxious.

After a chaotic game, the Suns trailed the Lakers by three points after halftime.

The scores of the two teams rose alternately, maintaining a fierce competition. In the second quarter, the state of the teammates has returned, but the Lakers are also playing better and better.

It's also because the Suns can't always do a good job of defensive integrity, and at the same time can't grasp the difference between fast and slow, and they are always out of touch, which gives the Lakers a lot of opportunities.

After more than half of the third quarter, Kobe and Odom played a match to create an aerial mid-range shot.

Seeing the Lakers attack like a wave, Xia Yin gritted his teeth and directly opened the nerve knife badge, shooting attribute +3% within 10 minutes.

In the frontcourt, Xia Yin received a pass from Nash and was two steps away from the three-point line. Kobe was staring at him one step away.

With an idea, Xia Yin took a big step back and was already close to the middle circle. At this time, he shot a three-pointer from a long distance.

"A three-pointer hit, from Xia Yin's sudden cold arrow, this is a super long-range three-pointer, Xia Yin's hand feels hot."

Kobe glanced at Xia Yin in surprise, as if he didn't expect him to choose to shoot from such a far position, but he didn't care too much, and devoted himself to another attack.

Gasol swayed Stoudemire from the inside and made a hit.

It's the Suns' round again. Maybe the shot just now gave Xia Yin confidence. As soon as he crossed the center circle, he reached for the ball. Nash didn't know why but passed the ball anyway.

As soon as Xia Yin received the ball, he shot directly. The three-pointer in the middle circle is an incredible distance.

"Shayne wants the ball, does he want to single Kobe? Oh, no, he made a shot, in the middle circle, oh my god, it really hit, and his range is getting farther and farther."

After Kobe saw the ball go in, he took a serious look at Xia Yin, and then turned back to defend.

As soon as Fisher received the ball, he was directly intercepted by Xia Yin, who was aiming from a distance. He rushed inside and made a dunk.

"Xine started again, he started to explode, he always stood up when the team needed him, he always does this, he scored 1 points in a row in 8 minute, my God!"

The Lakers served again and became much more nervous. They did not give Xia Yin a chance to steal the ball. After reaching the frontcourt, they passed it to Gasol.

But this ball was not so lucky, it slid out of the basket, and Lopez was lucky to grab the defensive rebound.

He only has his own boss in his eyes. Besides, the coach also said that when Xia Yin feels good, everyone will create opportunities for him. This is the opportunity Xia Yin has played in the past dozen games.

Xia Yin received a pass from Lopez, but did not break through. Instead, he jumped up and pushed the basketball out of his hand.

When Xia Yin chose to shoot, everyone seemed to be shocked, and they didn't expect Xia Yin to make such a shot.

This is still in your own half, can you really shoot farther and farther?
But the orange basketball slowly crossed the distance of the court, and finally fell into the net bag with incomparable accuracy.

"Wow!"

At this moment, both the Lakers fans and the fans who came to support Shain all stood up and screamed. This is really incredible.

There were shots like this before, but that was when the time was up and there was no time to rush to shoot, but it was obvious that Xia Yin chose to do this on his own initiative, and he scored three consecutive three-pointers.

This is incredible!
"Mvp! Mvp! Mvp!"

A small group of people at the scene started to cheer for mvp, and the fans started to defect for Xia Yin.

The Lakers paused, and when Shane went to the bench, his teammates waved towels and rushed towards Shane, making a fuss.

"Coach, I think we're going to play the fast break and give up the defense, or we're going to lose."

Gentry took a deep look at Xia Yin, it was terrifying to be able to remain calm at such a moment!
"What you said is also what I want to say. We can only have a chance of defeating the Lakers if we return to the familiar track. Let's do it, gentlemen. This is a national broadcast. Use your advantages."

Returning to the field again, Phil Jackson wanted to cool down Xia Yin's touch, but it was not that easy.

On the court, Kobe activated his death eyes and stared at Xia Yin. If eyes could kill people, he would have been eaten alive by now.

Xia Yin shrugged and looked at Kobe with a smile, but this made the little snake even more angry.

Xia Yin and Kobe are like natural opposites. As long as Xia Yin teases Kobe a little bit, he will be extremely angry and furious.

The game started again, and Kobe made a strong shot in the face of a double-team. Maybe Kobe's shooting fuel is anger?

His shooting percentage always goes up at times like this.

Shane was not to be outdone, facing Kobe and Odom's double-teaming, he raised his arms high, and then touched Odom's hands, when the basketball had already been thrown out.

He didn't know where the basketball was thrown, but there was a "snap" on the scene, and even the bench could hear it clearly.

The referee blew the whistle immediately, and Odom hurriedly explained to the referee, dancing and chattering.

Kobe pulled him away, "Hey, calm down, that kid did it on purpose, don't worry, it doesn't matter!"

Odom looked at Kobe in shock, and he didn't say some words. If he said it, he would definitely be unlucky.

"Are you still Kobe? You actually comforted me?"

Shane steadily hit all three free throws.

At this point, there are only 10 seconds left in the third quarter.

Xia Yin stared closely and prepared to steal, but the Lakers were already on psychological alert and did not give Xia Yin a chance.

Xia Yin didn't pay attention and turned back to defend.

But with such a delay, there was not much time left, and Fisher passed the ball directly to Kobe.

Just after halftime, Xia Yin quickly rushed towards the basketball, grabbed the basketball before Kobe, and roared,
"mine!"

Squeezing Kobe away abruptly, Xia Yin quickly pulled up and shot.

As soon as the basketball was thrown out, the third quarter was over.

Kobe glanced bitterly at Xia Yin who fell to the ground.

Turning around to look at the basketball again, but this three-pointer fully mobilized everyone's hearts.

The basketball finally reached the rim, and with a "clam", the ball jumped up from the rim, and then jumped on the rim again, but this time it started spinning directly on the rim.

Circle after circle.

Xia Yin, who was lying on the ground, got up from the ground, but before the ball went in, Nash stretched out his hands and stomped on the floor while holding his head, looking even more anxious than Xia Yin.

"Come on, come in, come in, come in quickly!"

But this naughty basketball was still spinning around the rim. After spinning for an unknown amount of time, Nash knelt on the ground, and stretched out his hands to pray that the basketball would fall into the net bag.

Finally, it seemed that the basketball heard the prayer and rolled into the hoop obediently.

This three-pointer was really scary, but when it actually fell into the basket, everyone was cheering and celebrating.

"This magic ball finally fell into the goddamn basket, guys, Shane had another one-man show, and he scored 2 points in a row in 48 minutes and 17 seconds."

"At the same time, he scored 21 points in the third quarter, which was a great number and also put the Suns ahead of the Lakers by 7 points."

Kenny smiled, "But I feel like the Lakers are going to win today."

Barkley didn't talk. Indeed, if it weren't for Shine's outbreak, the Suns would still be behind. What about the fourth quarter?what will happen?

"Kobe, Kobe again, this is Kobe's 46th point, he's still scoring, he's still scoring!"

This time it was not so lucky. With only 4 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Suns put on a substitute and conceded.

夏因本场比赛拿下了34分5篮板3助攻3抢断1盖帽，可太阳还是输球了。

Kobe scored 50 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists in this game. He finally let out a sigh of relief. He had been holding it in for a month and he had been waiting for this day to arrive.

After the game, Kobe walked up to Xia Yin and looked at Xia Yin proudly, "I won, rookie!"

Xia Yin stood up and stood on the chair looking down at him, "But the future is mine!"

After saying that, Xia Yin turned around and left.

Kobe stood there with a smile on his cold face.

[What a nice guy, what a pity! 〕
