This is also understandable.

This Olympics is equally important to Kobe.

He helped the Dream Team return to the top four years ago, but if it is pulled down from the top just four years later, it will be a huge failure.

And you have to know that the Lakers, as a super team, failed to reach the finals last season, which was very frustrating for him.

He cannot accept double losses in the NBA and international arenas, and his desire to win is stronger than any other member of the US team.

The American team was always flanking, and Lin Ying was forced back to the three-point line.

The Chinese team's offensive time is running out. The best option for Lin Ying is to give the ball to others to reorganize the offense.

But his next choice surprised everyone.

He changed direction in front of his body and shot a three-pointer!

Kobe also reacted quickly, jumping up with all his strength and directly covering Lin Ying's eyes.

This is using the same tactics that Shane used against him to deal with Lin Ying.

And this choice is also correct.

Because of the height difference, Kobe couldn't cover Lin Ying when they took off at the same time.

Lin Ying lost his shooting vision before taking the ball.

"when!"

Lin Ying's three-point shot missed!

In a white-hot space, there is no guarantee that every goal will be scored.

Chandler protected the defensive rebound.

The U.S. team has a chance to continue to close the gap.

Kobe carried the ball to the frontcourt, looked up and saw that Lin Ying had switched defenses to guard him!

These two were both enemies and friends in the NBA, and now they are at odds with each other in the Olympics!

Time is Team USA's biggest enemy, and Kobe launched the attack without much hesitation.

He chose a change-of-direction breakthrough facing the frame and a sudden-stop fadeaway jumper.

Lin Ying also followed Kobe's lead.

But what happened in the next second was surprising.

Kobe passed the ball to James who was cutting back!

His singles attracted too much attention, and James' sudden cut was caught off guard.

Yao Ming had no time to help defend at this time, James directly jumped into the air and smashed the ball into the basket!

86 to 95!

The point difference is back to single digits again!

And after a 5-0 offensive, the dream team's momentum also increased.

Yao Ming's turnaround attack at the free throw line was blocked, and the U.S. team once again went on a fast break.

It's Kobe again. He received a pass from James during the fast break, broke through and pulled back to the three-point line before taking a shot.

"Whoa!"

besides!

Kobe in the white-hot space is unstoppable!

The point difference is only 6 points!

There are still 2 minutes left before the end of the game!

The outcome is still unknown!

Yunus reached out and called a timeout.

The Chinese team played a bit passively in this period. The key is to score goals. Just score one.

The fans at the scene also looked nervous.

Especially domestic fans.

From the lead to Yao Ming's injury and retirement, to Lin Ying's sudden rise, Yao Ming's return, and then Kobe's rampage, the emotions are really like a roller coaster.

After the timeout, Yao Ming held the ball directly at the three-point line, and the others also spread out from the wings.

Lin Ying directly leaned on Kobe in the high post to ask for the ball.

As soon as Yao Ming fed the ball in, Lin Ying turned directly to the free throw line and launched an attack.

Kobe Bryant weighed in on Kalin in advance.

However, Lin Ying made a feint, turned around and broke through directly to the basket!

Yao Ming has made three-pointers before, and the distance of the three-pointer in the international arena is his shooting range. This tactical arrangement is equivalent to emptying the basket.

Lin Ying broke through to the basket, and only Kobe followed half a step behind.

When he reached the three-second zone, Lin Ying jumped up, and Kobe almost jumped up at the same time and stretched out his hand to interfere.

Then the famous scene came.

Lin Ying used a small lever in the air to dodge, then glide for a while and then shot back to the basket!

This action looks very much like that man!

"Bang!"

After the ball hit the backboard... it bounced into the net bag!

Creator of world famous paintings!

Old K was all laughing on the sidelines.

Lin Ying, who is so tall, can actually play like this!

Who would have thought that a few years ago this was a power forward who mainly played inside!

Lin Ying: I bought it for 2 million a year.

This goal had a huge impact on the situation on the field and could even be said to determine the game!

Because there was not much time left, it meant that it would take at least 3 rounds for the American team to tie the score. In one and a half minutes, they had to grab three points.

Sure enough, Kobe rushed to the frontcourt and directly chased for a three-pointer.

But the intention of this ball was too obvious, and Lin Ying was completely disturbed.

"when!"

Kobe's three-pointer hit the basket and Yao Ming grabbed the rebound and raised it above his head.

The American team directly attacked from a pincer attack, but Lin Ying had already taken the initiative to respond.

The American team continued to attack, and Lin Ying quickly passed the ball to Sun Yue.

After just a few transitions, the ball successfully reached the frontcourt.

Lin Ying also quickly reached the frontcourt to catch the ball, with Kobe behind him to press the clock.

Now even if we don't score a goal after playing for 24 seconds, the Chinese team will not lose!

The U.S. team continued to attack, or they were very smart and moved to the three-point line, receiving Lin Ying's pass and holding it up.

The two played relay here.

Finally, Kobe became anxious and jumped up to grab the ball, but the referee called a foul.

Because the number of fouls had reached, Yao Ming went directly to the free throw line.

The fans at the scene were already excited.

"MVP! MVP!"

It wasn't just some big guy who took the lead. First, the Chinese fans started shouting, and then almost the whole audience started shouting.

However, Yao Ming returned as the king tonight and played through injury, so he fully deserves the title of MVP.

Yao Ming made two free throws steadily, and the point difference came to 10 points!

The American team made extensive substitutions at this time, with Curry and Harden replacing James and Iguodala.

This is to get everyone who can throw three-pointers.

As a result, this wave of substitutions had a miraculous effect. Harden came up and directly threw a three-pointer!

However, Lin Ying's baseline serve was very stable, and Yao Ming continued to raise his head after receiving the ball. After Lin Ying entered the court, it was given to Lin Ying, who advanced to the front court again.

At this time, the U.S. team did not dare to commit a foul. The Chinese team was stunned for 24 seconds, and after Chandler got the defensive rebound, Yao Ming smartly fouled on the spot.

Because the Chinese team did not have enough defensive attempts, the American team then served from the backcourt.
