In the third quarter, Stephen only scored [-] points, while Kobe scored [-] points. While increasing the score to [-] points, he also widened the point difference to [-] points. Scoring [-] points at a time is also the first time this season that he has surpassed Stephen in personal points.

However, the game is not over yet, which means that the dust has not settled in this competition. Whoever wins depends on how the two sides will perform in the fourth quarter. The new disagreement, Kenny Smith believes that in the end this game Kobe will not only win the individual score, but also win the game.

And Steve Kerr thinks that with Stephen's personal scoring ability, as long as he exerts his strength in the fourth quarter, there should be no problem in surpassing Kobe. After all, the difference between the two is only seven points, but if he really If you do this, it will be a great harm to the team, and the Sonics will definitely lose this game.

Only Barkley, who just said that Stephen is like himself, stands firmly on Stephen's side, thinking that Stephen will not only win the scoring, but also win the game. Of course, no one knows where his confidence comes from. Come.

The fourth quarter began soon, Kobe did not appear on the court, Luke Walton appeared on the court instead of him, but the Sonics did not make any changes, and continued to let Stephen stay on the court. Up to now, Stephen hasn't rested for a minute.

It's not that Stephen didn't feel tired, but the team was behind and at the same time was led by the opponent in terms of individual points. How could Stephen rest at ease, and Wilkins' knees never got better. This game has been ruled out The team doctor is banned from playing.

Wilkins is Stephen's substitute, and is also one of the few impactful players in the Sonics' current lineup except for Stephen. Szczerbiak and Durant mainly shoot from the outside , cannot play a complementary role in coordination.

Under such circumstances, Stephen refused Carlesimo's request to replace him, and it was understandable to choose to continue playing. However, Kobe, at his age, was able to hold on to his full strength under such high-intensity confrontation. The three quarters can be considered very good.

Ariza was born in Miami, but he attended high school in Los Angeles, and then entered the famous basketball school UCLA, and participated in the draft a year later. The year he participated in the draft, Stephen entered the University of Southern California, and the two did not meet.

His physical fitness can't be considered bad, but he is a little lacking in strength. He happened to meet Stephen, who was very superior in strength. Going in the direction of the basket, no matter how hard Ariza tried, he couldn't reverse it.

With normal defensive methods unable to stop Stephen, Ariza had no choice but to take the risk of using those shady little methods, but it is a pity that today he met a referee with more vicious eyes, or met a more serious referee. The referee, as soon as he made a move on this side, the referee on the other side blew his whistle and sentenced him to a pulling foul.

After the Sonics started to attack again, Stephen still used his strength to force Ariza as before. Ariza had no choice but to continue to extend his hand. The referee did not tolerate his actions because he had already given him a foul, and blew again. Called him a pulling foul.

There is no free throw for another foul, and the Sonics' offense has been wasted and there are only nine seconds left. During these nine seconds, what kind of play the Sonics will adopt is what everyone is very concerned about. Just like many Seattle fans expected, after Stephen got the ball, he forced Ariza again.

Ariza didn't foul this time, because if he fouled again, it would be his fifth foul, and the previous four fouls were all committed by Stephen alone, without any other means, so Ariza was easily squeezed by Stephen Drive, and score a layup with two seconds left in the shot clock.

"Although Ariza's defense is good, but against Stephen, the Lakers still lack a good perimeter defensive player to relieve Kobe's defensive pressure." Steve Kerr, as part of the Bulls dynasty, knew very well The composition of the team, it is because of Pippen's investment in defense that Michael Jordan can put most of his attention on offense. is the best choice.

"The Lakers once played with Stephen's idea, and the reason was that Stephen would become the next Pippen." Kenny Smith was always well-informed, and immediately threw out a piece of news he had received. What's the problem.

"In fact, every team in the league has the opportunity to have Stephen, but only the Spurs have this vision. Although they failed to keep Stephen, Stephen brought them two championships, which is enough to repay their efforts. . ” Talking about this matter, everyone has enough to say, because if the current trajectory continues, Stephen will become one of the few superstars in the league, and none of the [-] teams selected him in the first round. He, but let him fall to the second round and was picked up by the Spurs. Although the Spurs will not receive too much criticism, they chose Mahinmi first and then Stephen. It is said that they made an ignorant mistake. , but better than the team.

Other teams can also say that we were planning to use the second-round pick to draft Stephen, but who knew that the Spurs got ahead of us. In this way, the only thing that can’t be explained is the Atlanta Hawks who gave up Stephen’s ownership for a mere $20 .

Driven by Stephen, the Sonics' defense was very active, and the Lakers' offense immediately became like a fly without Kobe's participation. Ariza and Luke Water could both run One piece, Jordan Farmar barely missed a shot, and the basketball was snatched by Stephen.

Turning back, Stephen shot from outside the three-point line, and it was a very difficult three-pointer at the top of the circle. After making the shot, Stephen stretched out three fingers and kept doing chopping movements. The game ended in the fourth quarter. After two rounds, the point difference was close to five points, which really made Stephen a little excited.

Kobe couldn't sit still on the bench, Yueyueyu wanted to go on the court and compete with Stephen, but thinking about his body not yet recovered to a certain state, Kobe suppressed his will to fight again, it seems The gap of a few points is not a problem for this guy at all, and he has to continue to work hard when he plays later.

Although Kobe has a charming smile on his face, which is a skill that must be mastered to become a star, no matter what he keeps a gentle smile, people who know him can see his eagerness through the muscles on his cheeks .

Through two seasons of unremitting efforts, he established the No.1 position in the league in terms of scoring. Both his success on the court and his success in commercial value have reached the peak. Although he has not made much progress in collective achievements, he No regrets, any achievement is only worth cherishing if it is his own, and while his personal achievements have been basically satisfied, he is now very much looking forward to the team's achievements.

But this offseason, he failed to recruit Stephen first, and then the team's reinforcements also suffered setbacks everywhere, which made him very depressed. Without enough helpers, don't think about breaking through in such a fiercely competitive Western Conference. The helper who is willing to live under others is not very easy to find.

While Kobe was depressed, Luke Walton penetrated the wonderful pass of the three and passed the ball to Jordan Farmar. Mal made an easy layup, but after looking back, Stephen assisted Szczerbiak to make a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

Stephen has never believed that there is an irreversible score, no matter it is against the Houston Rockets defending like a Great Wall of steel, or the San Antonio Spurs controlling the rhythm so that they can do whatever they want, or the Phoenix Suns attacking like a raging fire, as long as one goal is in front of him hand, you can catch up with the score.

Not to mention the current Los Angeles Lakers. Seeing the current Lakers, Stephen is not glad that he did not choose the Lakers, but also feels a little happy. After all, after he has arrived at the Lakers, he still has to consider Kobe's feelings. There is so much freedom here that you can do whatever you want.

Before trying this feeling, Stephen felt that it was okay to share the ball with others, but after trying it, Stephen felt that he fell in love with this feeling deeply. Stephen raised his arms high, although the ball did not score, But the basketball board was snatched by Coupard and handed over to Stephen again.

Stephen believes that no matter whether he goes to the Bulls or the Pacers, it is impossible to get the same treatment as the Sonics. On the one hand, these two teams do not have a head coach like Carlesimo. There are no teammates like the Sonics.

There are no qualified players in the Supersonic team, and there is no player who competes with Stephen for the boss or the right to shoot. This is very beneficial for Stephen to take over the Supersonic team smoothly and form an authority that no one dares to offend. Cause too much impact, but definitely not so peaceful.

The introduction of Robert Horry and Coupard also greatly helped Stephen. Coupard charged for Stephen in the front, and Robert Horry silently supported him in the back. The situation is under control among the players.

After receiving the pass from Coupard, Stephen took a step back and went beyond the three-point line, and continued to shoot. This time he finally scored. While Stephen scored eight points, he also pulled the point difference to only three points. At that time, Kobe finally stood up from the bench and stood in front of the technical statistics platform. Seeing this, Stephen smiled.
