Lin Rui's performance is quite dominant in the PAC-12 league.

In terms of team status, Lin Rui has also quickly improved to the core level. He surpassed Avraro in terms of influence on the court and gained more trust from coach Holland.

Lin Rui's performance also attracted Kobe's attention.

In the Chicken Feather Show, Kobe talked about Lin Rui.

Kobe said: "Lin is a very good newbie. His offense and passing are great. I will watch his game if I have time."

Kobe's status in Los Angeles is unquestionable. It is not easy to get his praise. His ability to praise Lin Rui shows that Lin Rui has indeed gained attention during this period.

"Kobe, do you think he ranks among the top in NCAA?" asked the host.

"Among the players I've seen, they are in the top three," Kobe said.

"What are the other two?" the host asked.

"Greg Oden, Kevin Durant, this is not to say that others are inferior to them, I just say that in the NCAA games I have watched, to be honest, I have watched very few games, haha," Kobe said.

"What do you think of Lin's skills?" the host asked.

"First of all, he is very tall, and then he has a very beautiful dribble, very fast speed, and his dribble movements in high confrontations are not deformed, his finishing ability, shooting ability, and all his abilities are at the NBA level." Kobe said.

"Would you like to let the Lakers choose him as the starting point guard?" asked the host.

"Of course, he can do this role." Kobe nodded without hesitation.

Kobe has never partnered with top point guards in his career, and many times he handles the problems himself.

Kobe feels that Lin Rui may not be able to say the top point guard of the NBA, but it is enough to play as the Lakers starting point guard.

"So that's it, set a goal for Lin and see if he can achieve it after the end of the season." said the host.

"The top three picks are my expectations for him," Kobe said with a smile.

Kobe's expectations for Lin Rui were quickly spread.

Even the fans in Los Angeles felt it was a bit outrageous.

Lin Rui is indeed very outstanding, but he is not as good as the top three picks.

The top two star players in the draft are Oden and Durant.

Both of these have been well-known since high school. After entering university, they have also played steadily and their dominance remains the same.

Durant averaged 25.8 points and 11.1 rebounds per game.

Oden averaged 21 points, 9.6 rebounds and 3.3 blocks per game.

Not to mention that both of them are better than Lin Rui’s data, even in terms of talent, Lin Rui has no advantage over these two people.

Durant definitely has excellent physical talent, he has a height of 208cm and a wingspan of 228cm.

Durant is not afraid of any physical confrontation, and often hits shots or layups when his body loses balance, and sometimes even completes dunks between 7 feet.

His ball-handling skills are skilled, his quick cross-disguised movements, turning around, and jump shots can only be seen in the defenders.

The shooting feels extremely stable and can score anywhere on the court, and no one can block his jump shot.

The point guard-level organizational ability and passing awareness can revitalize the entire team's offense by one person, this is Durant.

Oden is even more perverted. Oden is 2.13 meters tall after wearing shoes, with a wingspan of 2.24 meters, and a standing height of 2.84 meters. He jumps on the spot by 0.81 meters, runs up and down 0.86 meters, runs back and forth in the penalty area for 11.67 seconds, and sprints of three quarters in just 3.27 seconds.

As a big man, he is not only tall and long, but also has good jumping skills, but his speed and flexibility are no less than those of a small man.

On multiple draft websites, Oden beat Durant to become the No. 1 pick.

Lin Rui was compared with these two superstars in Kobe's eyes. For a moment, the media and fans felt that Kobe was too boasting.

Lin Rui said on Twitter: "Bryant is indeed wrong, because I want first, not just the top three."

Lin Rui's high profile aroused the displeasure of Durant fans and Oden fans.

"After playing a few games, this guy didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick."

"It's all abusing food, there's no difficulty at all."

"There are big wins in every game, which shows that the opponent has a big gap in strength with UCL. What's the point of being arrogant?"

"Lin Rui, you are still far from Greg and Kevin."

"Lin Rui played well, but it was far from that high pick. This is disrespect for other players."

"Your talent is great, but it's still far from comparing with those two. People should have self-knowledge."

"Now all players treat themselves as a scallion."

On social media, Lin Rui was also criticized because of Kobe's high-profile remarks between Lin Rui.

Now Lin Rui's attention has increased, and whatever he says will trigger discussion in the media.

Lin Rui also likes this kind of attention, and he has the ability to bear these pressures.

Game 9 was the California Civil War.

UCLa vs. USC, which is also in Los Angeles.

USC has two NBA prospects players.

One is Nick Young, who is 2.01 meters tall, and the other is guard Gabe Pruitt, who is 193 meters tall.

Both of them predicted first-round picks, and then they were all super scorers.

The University of Southern California has also achieved a good record, with a luxurious record of 7 wins and 1 loss, ranking directly at UCL.

There are many fans of the two teams in this game, and such a derby battle is even more eye-catching than a derby battle between the Lakers and the Clippers.

......

The history of the two teams' mortal enemies starts with school history.

The "Victory Bell" originally belonged to the locomotive of a train from the South Pacific Railroad Company in California.

In 1939, UCL's alumni association bought the clock and added a small cart bracket to give it to UCL's student group.

Since then, it has become a symbol of UCL team victory.

However, energetic students like to do some exciting activities, and in 1941, students from the University of Southern California stole the victory clock...

UCLa's students expressed their anger!

However, the way UCL students revenge is a bit special...

They ran to the Southern California campus and sprayed their iconic statue Tommytrojan with blue paint from their school...

In addition to this competition, there is also academic competition.

These two universities are very close, and the rankings and positioning of schools are similar. The levels of students admitted to schools are extremely overlapping, and it is often the case that students receive two offers at the same time and choose one.

Because this competition between resources and students is reflected in sports events, these two universities feel that they are incompatible.

In basketball history, two schools are mortal enemies. When Jabbar made a record of 88 wins and 2 losses on behalf of UCL, one of the games he lost was to lose to the University of Southern California.

The loss to the University of Southern California is very interesting. Because the University of Southern California is afraid of UCL's strong strength and there was no 24-second rule at that time, so the University of Southern California has unlimited control of the ball without attacking after leading, and finally won a victory over time...

This victory is not glorious.

Since then, every year of California Civil War has caused fierce confrontation between fans and players on both sides.

It is very common to abuse and fight.

This time, the California Civil War directly borrowed the Staples Arena.
