Chapter 139 Kobe’s provocation

As an experienced veteran player, Kobe knew a little bit, and immediately found out a clue from the referee's penalty.

Obviously, the referee in today's game should be biased towards the Lakers.

Perhaps the league is controlling the field, or it may be that the certain gram he endorsed is secretly working hard, but in any case this is good news for the Lakers.

And then after Kobe played, he also began to try to test the referee's bottom line.

In the attack, he began to try to secretly elbow again. To be honest, this action is not obvious, but sometimes it is really disgusting.

After being elbowed several times in succession, Du Zhe finally realized that Kobe was returning to his old ways.

To be honest, since he awakened the halo of the villain on the court, most of the players who played against him have behaved relatively well. It has been a long time since Du Zhe had conflicts with others.

It can only be said that it has to be a superstar with top strength like Kobe, in order not to be suppressed by his halo, and have the courage to engage in such a small trick.

After Kobe saw that the referee had no reaction, his elbow swings gradually increased.

After elbowing Du Zhe to score a goal, Kobe gave Du Zhe a provocative look, and finally added "soft, try me."

The referee's control of the field, coupled with Kobe's provocation, really made Du Zhe a bit over the top.

It's just that the playoffs are different from the regular season. The error tolerance rate of the seven-match four-win format is too low. If he is suspended due to impulsiveness, the Warriors will basically be eliminated directly.

Thinking of this, Du Zhe could only suppress the anger in his heart again, and just replied coldly: "Bryant, is your nose no longer hurting?"

Kobe, who was poked at the sore spot, obviously had a hint of dodge in his eyes.

But Du Zhe's threat could not make Kobe restrained, because he had already made up his mind to keep provoking Du Zhe.

He just wanted to make Du Zhe lose his mind and take the initiative to fight back.

It would be better if Du Zhe could break the bridge of his nose like last time.

In this way, Du Zhe will definitely be suspended by the league.

The Warriors are entirely supported by Du Zhe. As long as he is dealt with, even if Kobe cannot play, the Lakers will win this series.

The second quarter soon came to an end. In the first half, the Lakers led the Warriors by 2 points, 54:48.

杜哲半场比赛10投5中，砍下15分2板1断。

Kobe, on the other hand, made 11 of 4 shots, plus two free throws, and scored 10 points.

However, among these 10 points, 6 points were scored by Kobe while Du Zhe was off the court.

During the halftime break, the Huaguo Sports Forum was full of verbal criticism of the bald referee.

"Is this bald guy blind? Du Zhe is so beautiful that he doesn't blow a 2+1?"

"The referee must have been paid, why is he just blowing the whistle?"

"Du Zhe was almost beaten to death by Kobe, the referee didn't even blow his whistle?"

"Du Zhe is so cowardly, let Kobe bully him like this, and dare not even pay back?"

"Don't talk nonsense upstairs, this is the playoffs, if Du Zhe is suspended, how will the Warriors play."

When the two commentators resumed the game at halftime, they also expressed their dissatisfaction with the on-site referee, both openly and secretly.

"How can I say today's game? The game was very exciting, but there are a few penalties that may be debatable." Director Yu said more reservedly.

Director Zhang couldn't help it anymore: "This referee is really interesting. I really don't know how this level got into the league."

The meaning behind the words is that the bald referee today is not good enough, and he is not worthy to come to the NBA to play games.

"Oh, you can't say that about Director Zhang. Maybe he was sent to play this kind of key competition because of his relatively high level." Director Yu deliberately emphasized the word level, which is obviously in the Yin Yang, the referee, has a good level of field control.

After a short intermission, the third quarter of the game continued.

Due to the critical situation of the Warriors on the court, Du Zhe had no time to rest and could only stay on the court to play.

And Kobe is still facing off against Du Zhe.

After discovering that the referee's bottom line was very flexible today, Kobe's actions became more and more rude.

It's just different from the unscrupulousness that Du Zhe didn't pay attention to at all when they fought for the first time.

This time Kobe's provocation was obviously more purposeful.

He just wanted to completely anger Du Zhe, and then change one after another.

Originally, this kind of dirty work should not be done by a player of Kobe's status.

But what he couldn't figure out was that the other role players in the team didn't dare to make too many fouls against Du Zhe.

Even a reckless man like Artest was inexplicably scared in the face of Du Zhe.

Kobe could only curse these teammates in his heart that the mud could not support the wall, so he had no choice but to do it himself.

Fortunately, Kobe himself is also an old-school player with a relatively old style of play. He has often had conflicts with other players in his career, and he is quite familiar with doing such things.

And Kobe's calculations were also very loud.

Even if he gets injured, as long as Du Zhe can be replaced, everything will be worth it.

Anyway, there is still a period of time between the end of the Western Conference Finals and the start of the Finals, and this period of time is enough for him to heal his injuries.

During an offense by the Lakers in the third quarter, Kobe stood at the top of the key with the ball.

Facing Du Zhe's constant tentative steals and harassment, he pretended to use both hands to avoid the ball, while deliberately getting close to Du Zhe.

Then in the process of dodging with the ball, Kobe pretended to be inadvertent and elbowed Du Zhe in the face.

Of course, Du Zhe would not tolerate him. He immediately covered his face and fell to the ground with a half-serious expression, looking very painful.

But the referee turned a blind eye to all of this. Seeing an open field in front of him, Kobe was unceremonious immediately, jumped up and hit a three-pointer directly.

Du Zhe was naturally very unconvinced when he lost three points for no reason.

He was elbowed by Kobe just now, and his face still hurts a little.

Du Zhe covered his face and wanted to appeal to the referee again, but after thinking about it, he had already suffered a technical foul just now because he had argued with the referee, and if he tried again now, the result would be the same.

"Welcome to the playoffs, rookie! The NBA is not a place for kids like you to play house!" After scoring a three-pointer, Kobe seemed to have regained his confidence, and said to Du Zhe that he was holding back in his heart. A long time of harsh words.

Du Zhe didn't respond to Kobe's words, he just gave him a cold look, then got up silently.

After the extreme anger passed, all that remained in his heart was extreme calm.

Du Zhe knew that if he allowed the opponent to intensify like this, he would definitely not be able to play well in this round of the series.

He had to think of a way to get the best of both worlds and solve the dilemma in front of him.
