After the Lakers defeated the Orlando Magic, they were followed by a four-court home.
This gives the Lakers a tight breathing opportunity at the beginning of the season. Instead of flying to the hotel, they can live in their own homes to participate in training and competitions, which is a good physical and mental rehabilitation.
On December 8, the Lakers ushered in the Minnesota Timberwolves challenge at the Great Western Forum Arena.
The Timberwolves led by Kevin Garnett, Tom Gugliotta and fourth pick Stephen Marbury have improved their record this season, currently 9 wins and 11 losses, ranking seventh in the West.
In the second year of his career, Kevin Garnett averaged a stat of 10.4 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists to 17.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.1 blocks.
Such an all-around performance on offense and defense has brought great help to the team. It can be said that Kevin Garnett is the team's axis, connecting all aspects inside and outside the team.
Tom Gugriota's 92-year-old No. 6 show, 2.08 meters big pitcher played the best performance of his career, averaging 20.6 points, 8.7 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.1 blocks, the Timberwolves offensive arrow.
Although he is a white pitcher, his offense is very aggressive this year, averaging 7.0 free throws per game and can make 5.7 hits, ranking seventh in the league in free throws per game.
Old Beijing Stephen Marbury, who changed his slack momentum at the beginning of the season, worked hard after being taught by Kobe. He played a super rookie point guard with 17.7 points, 2.8 rebounds and 8.6 assists. The fourth place in the list, second only to Kobe Bryant, Iverson and Vancouver Rahm.
"Kobe, it's not for someone else today! I want to prove it to you! My old horse's life, no! Weak! Yu! People!" In the dressing room before the game, Marbury tightly wrapped the bandage, he prepared for this day For a long time.
Remembering his ruined video in the cold Minnesota apartment, Marbury is full of confidence in this game.
"Stephen, come on!" The arrogant Marbury started to integrate into the team after being cleaned up by Kobe. Kevin Garnett was the first player to accept him. The future Jagged Wolf likes Marbury. Dang's momentum.
On the other side, Bryant raised his hands and walked out of the player aisle in the cheers.
With Kobe Bryant's splendid games, facing the superstar's style again and again, his fans are increasing.
These fans gather together to form a tower, and one day, it will affect the whole world.
As soon as appeared, Kobe noticed the provocative look of Marbury.
Bryant raised his eyebrows, it seems that he lightened the last time?
"Kobe, I've trained in the ice of Minnesota to deal with your unique skills. Wait, people will know that in this game, I will be the king of the 96th generation!" Marbury's bloodthirsty eyes make Kobe feel a little funny.
Do you play martial arts movies? You also have to play basketball when you are sick?
This rookie is not very good, it seems that a lot of education is required. As the leader of the 96th generation, Bryant decided to use hardship to promote the growth of the rookie of the same session.
Education of pain begins with Marbury.
Marbury was also immersed in the fantasy of punching Kobe and kicking Iverson, but he didn't know that a demon had stared at him.
The Lakers 'starting lineup remains unchanged, and the Timberwolves' starting lineup is PG Stephen – Marbury SG Doug – West SF Tom – Guglio Tower PF Kevin – Garnett C Dean – Gallente.
O'Neal won this jump ball for the team, Kobe Bryant received the ball quickly to the frontcourt, and Marbury killed him.
"Don't think of passing here!"
Kobe Bryant's crotch, breakthrough on the right.
Was stopped!
"Don't think about it, I've broken your video! I know every time you attack!"
If watching bad videos can prevent Kobe, then everyone is Kobe Terminator.
Kobe pulled back the ball and hesitated, then accelerated and then broke to the right!
Or this way? Not right!
Marbury was clean and had no hesitation before Kobe used this action, and did he like to change direction? Why is it going right?
Mid-range jumper, hit the board.
Damn it! Marbury looked at Kobe's chic back and couldn't help but clenched his teeth. He didn't like defense. He recently delved into defense defensively, just to give Kobe Bryant a chance.
As a result, this old Yin forced to hide his hands! Fortunately, I have prepared a special skill.
Marbury came to the Lakers half with the ball, facing Kobe's lazy defensive posture, even more angry!
Don't look down on people!
Go directly to the unique skill! Low center of gravity, dribble under the crotch between the left and right legs!
Is a bit interesting, Kobe is interested in Marbury's dribble. The basketball flying height is very low, basically relying on the finger to make the basketball swing back and forth in the hips, especially when the left and right legs are moving at the same time, the confusion is very strong.
Is on! Marbury accelerates and will force a breakthrough from Kobe Bryant.
Kobe blocked with a slip.
Change direction!
Block again!
Change direction again!
"Slap!" Kobe stabbed the ball in Marbury's hand, picked it up, and ran to the frontcourt.
is coming! Kobe's aerial work!
Kobe got up, grabbed the ball with both hands, and looped the windmill with both hands to dunk the ball into the basket!
"I gave 9 points for this dunk! Because 6 turned over!" Fisher on the sidelines jumped up and down.
After all his unique skills failed, Marbury dared not attack Kobe again. Played a pick-and-roll with Kevin Garnett and passed it to Garnett.
Garnett jumped up and down in the face of Campbell pretending to be a breakthrough! Jagged big jumper hit.
Bryant played again, Marbury was regarded as a cash machine by him, regardless of physical fitness or defensive skills, Kobe can directly ignore it, and made a three-pointer. In the opening, one person scored 7 points!
Philip Sanders chose to suspend, it seems that hard work Marbury still has no way to prevent Kobe ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Then he has to adjust his defense strategy.
Doug West, this 1.98 meters 91 kg shooting guard was assigned to the defensive Kobe.
Kobe feels coming! Nobody is useless!
Rob Marbury! Facing the empty half of the Timberwolves, he chose to stop three points!
Basketball crossed the Great Western Forum Arena.
"DUANG!" Iron.
It doesn't matter. As the first iron king in league history, Kobe knows he can't make a move. He keeps pace, jumps up, catches the moon with one hand, smashes the ball into the basket, and makes a dunk from the air.
In the first quarter of the game, Kobe feels hot, full of firepower, and leads the team to score the highest score in a single quarter.
20: 37! The Lakers lead 17 points in a single quarter!
The second quarter led the big score, the Lakers came off the bench for a very long time.
Fisher didn't fall in the face of Marbury. The powerful defense made Marbury missed again and again.
Damn, I can't even handle Kobe's younger brother!
Marbury's mentality burst.

In the third quarter, the Lakers starters came to an end to suspense.
Single quarter 20:28, the game will be concluded.

Ghost only believed what you said, Marbury walked into the player channel without saying a word.
