Chapter 36 Christmas Battle (5)

"My rebound." In the second half of the second quarter, O'Neal, whose physical strength was declining, hit Robinson in a single, and after encountering Duncan's double-team, he directly passed the ball to Kobe, who was moving laterally near the free throw line. Facing Meng Xu who was close to him, he threw the basketball without making any adjustments. Under Meng Xu's interference, the basketball hit the front of the basket and bounced to the left. The rebound was snatched by Meng Xu.

After grabbing the rebound, Meng Xu directly handed the ball to Johnson, and he accelerated towards the Lakers half court. After realizing Meng Xu's intention, Johnson made a long pass and passed the ball to the frontcourt. Meng Xu, it's just that there was a slight deviation in the pass this time. After slowing down and receiving the ball, Kobe had already retreated back.

At this time, Meng Xu was caught in a dilemma. Let’s break through. My breakthrough is really bad. Let alone Kobe, it’s good if I don’t get intercepted by Kobe. Let’s shoot. The CIC is really bad.

The moment Meng Xu hesitated, Popovich on the sidelines went into a rage and cursed at Meng Xu on the court.

"Shoot, FACK, shoot, boy, throw that damn basketball." Popovich cursed loudly, and was about to rush into the field. Assistant coach Mike Budenholzer behind him threw Popovich from behind. Vicky hugged tightly.

Hearing Popovich's yelling, Meng Xu had no choice but to bite the bullet and jumped up on the spot. The moment Meng Xu just jumped up, something bloody happened. Kobe in front of Meng Xu followed Meng Xu also jumped up at the same time, and directly covered Meng Xu's face with his not too big palm, while the other hand pushed Meng Xu in the air very covertly.

Meng Xu, who was originally very bad at mid-range shooting, lost his balance under this sudden change, and could only rely on his feeling to throw the basketball in his hand.

After Meng Xu landed, Kobe's palm left Meng Xu's sight. Seeing that the basketball he threw seemed to be unable to touch the basket, Meng Xu also cursed at Kobe.

"FACK, you sinister boy."

"Rookie, don't you have a saying in China, do you use the same way to give to the other? I think it is very appropriate to use it here, hahaha." Seeing Meng Xu's panic, he was very suffocated under Meng Xu's defense Kobe Bryant also heaved a sigh of relief.

"Oh, the Spurs rookie's shooting is really bad." Seeing the funny scene on and off the court, the commentator on the court couldn't help complaining.

"I really can't imagine how this guy can shoot 3-pointers at a higher percentage than mid-range shots." Hearing his partner's complaints and looking at the technical statistics of the Spurs this season, the magician was also a little puzzled and curious.

"Don't be discouraged." When returning to defense, Duncan walked up to Meng Xu, stroked Meng Xu's head, and showed a rare smile.

"Meng, be careful to be bald by Duncan. Duncan's hands are poisonous." Anna's voice suddenly appeared in his ears, which also startled Meng Xu.

"Bald, what do you mean?" Hearing Anna's insane laughter, Meng Xu looked puzzled.

"You'll know in the future, you'd better seek your own blessings as soon as possible. Think about it, what will you look like if you become bald, hahaha, no, I'm going to laugh."

"Nervous."

"Meng, let me see you hesitate when shooting again, and you will get off the court." When passing the bench, Popovich's magnetic roar sounded in his ears.

"Rookie, how is my defense?" Back on the defensive end, just as he ran to Kobe's side, he heard Kobe spitting trash at Meng Xu.

"Boy, my defense is incomparable to yours. It's been a long time. Why can't I see you attacking with the ball? If you don't hold the ball, I'll help defend that big fat guy." Listening to Kobe's taunt, Meng Xu was also full of anger, so he could only use his tongue at this moment.

"Rookie, stop talking big and see if I don't blow you up." After being mocked by Meng Xu, Kobe immediately reached out to Ron Harper for the ball.

Seeing Kobe reaching out for the ball, Ron Harper was also displeased, but after a moment of contemplation, he still passed the basketball to Kobe.From the second quarter, O'Neal's shooting percentage began to decline. With the decline in physical strength, he was also a little powerless in the face of David Robinson and Tim Duncan.When O'Neal couldn't start the situation, he could only give the ball to Kobe.

"Catch the ball faster next time." After Ron Harper, standing between the center circle and the 3-point line, passed the ball obliquely, he had a bad premonition in his heart. Ron Harper watched When Kobe was about to catch the basketball, Meng Xu, who was defending in front of Kobe, moved over in an instant, blocked the ball before Kobe could catch it, and intercepted the basketball.

At this time, Meng Xu was like an arrow leaving the string, dribbling the ball forward at an astonishing speed. After Kobe recovered, Meng Xu had already dribbled the ball over the 3-point line.

"It's amazing speed." Seeing Meng Xu running with the ball, even the magician was very surprised. There are many fast players in the league, but it's unbelievable that a striker can have such speed.

After Meng Xu dribbled the ball into the paint, he chose a one-handed slam dunk that imitated Magic Johnson. After completing the dunk, Meng Xu also imitated the magician's famous celebration and stretched out his right hand towards the auditorium to ask for the ball. applause.

"Oh, Ervin, this kid is really interesting." Seeing Meng Xu imitating the magician's signature moves on the court, the commentator on the sidelines also laughed and looked at Johnson.

"Yeah, a fun kid."

Unlike Johnson's generosity, the Staples audience didn't do it. In their view, Meng Xu's move was not only a provocation to the Lakers, but also a challenge to Magician, one of the greatest players in Lakers history. Johnson's disrespect and insult.In an instant, there were boos all over the Staples Center. You must know that even when the Spurs played, the Lakers fans did not "welcome" them with boos.

Meng Xu, who was originally joking, was a little stunned when he heard the boos from the Lakers fans, but then he made a move to make the boos even bigger, which was to imitate Allen Iverson's listening When Meng Xu put his left hand to his ear and was running on the sidelines, when he passed the bench, the Lakers' backup center John Sely almost rushed up to beat him.

"Tim, tell your little brother to restrain yourself and stop being so arrogant." O'Neill put his hands on his hips and said fiercely to Tim Duncan beside him with a dark face.

Duncan didn't speak, but just shrugged his shoulders and winked at Meng Xu in the distance.
