Chapter 156: Chapter 124: Weak Team, I Strike Hard, Scoring 44 Points and Breaking My Personal Record Again.

"Why don’t you just dunk?"

"I can’t dunk, would you believe that?"

"Believe you my ass."

Zeng Xingyang walked over to the bench, joking with Jokic after high-fiving him.

Compared to those strong teams like the Spurs and Warriors, playing against the Lakers was really too easy.

"Damn it!"

Kobe gritted his teeth, watching Zeng Xingyang and Jokic’s backs. He really wanted to stop such a fast break, but he was powerless.

The Lakers didn’t give Zeng Xingyang enough defensive pressure, allowing him to leisurely find the following-up Jokic.

Also, their opponent’s center was even participating in fast breaks.

Where’s their center Hibbert? Still in the backcourt!

Returning to the bench, Kobe started to scold.

"F*ck, did you all not eat tonight?"

"Or were you exhausted by women last night?"

"Too soft."

Kobe was very dissatisfied with his teammates’ attitude towards the game.

None of the Lakers players dared to respond to Kobe, and the bench atmosphere was very tense.

...

Barkley said, "Julius’s ability to play solo is really difficult to put into words."

O’Neal said, "Too soft, they’re playing too soft. Lakers, you could still give Shaq a contract, Shaq can help you attack the inside now. Shaq is very cheap now, just needs a $2 million contract."

Barkley said, "Piglet can also dominate the inside, Piglet is cheaper than that fool, just need a hometown minimum wage contract."

Miller said, "Without pursuing results, I really suggest Jim and Mickey can sign these two clowns beside me, they will bring viewership to the Lakers."

Smith: "..."

...

Timeout quickly returned.

The Lakers’ offense.

Kobe and Hibbert’s pick and roll, after the pick, he aggressively broke in.

Jokic helped on defense, Zeng Xingyang also hurried over from the other side.

"Bang!"

Kobe powerfully squeezed through both defenses, taking a shot after losing balance.

"Rim!"

No good.

But, beep beep, the referee blew the whistle.

Zeng Xingyang and Jokic both raised their hands, looking speechless; their defense was very clean.

This was definitely a home whistle.

The referee called a foul on Jokic. Jokic went over to have a friendly chat with the referee.

To no avail.

Kobe steadily made both free throws.

to 4

Nuggets’ offense.

Jokic received a pass from Faried, dribbling past half-court.

Jokic observed after reaching the arc top.

Zeng Xingyang was frantically positioning on the right side.

Faried stood still, setting up a screen posture.

Zeng Xingyang pretended to use Faried’s screen to find Jokic for a hand-off, successfully fooling Clarkson.

A positioning fake reached the corner, an open spot.

Jokic’s pass almost arrived the instant Zeng Xingyang found an open position.

Received the ball in stride, shooting smoothly.

Three-pointer shot.

"Swish!"

to 4.

Zeng Xingyang made a celebratory shooting arrow gesture.

The Nuggets bench fell in response.

Zeng Xingyang’s pressure was making the entire Lakers team breathless.

"Zeng Xingyang’s scoring ability is explosive."

"The Lakers’ defense is as fragile as paper."

"Can’t be stopped, really can’t be stopped, there’s no way at all."

"Zeng Xingyang is now very effective against weak teams like the Lakers."

"Weak team strong punch moment!"

"Damn, the Lakers could have drafted Zeng Xingyang this year with the No. 2 pick!"

Quite a few Lakers fans felt angry.

Just look at the spirited Zeng Xingyang making the Lakers feel heartbroken, then look at Russell just dribbling past half-court to pass and lie down.

Lakers fans are furious!

"DeAngelo, you need to come out and score." Coach Scott voiced what the fans were feeling directly.

Russell seemed unaware of the fans’ anger, still with a detached attitude.

No tactics, no ball possession, everything given to Kobe, how do you want me to play?

Scott didn’t draw up any tactics for him, Russell could only reply, "Okay."

Timeout quickly returned.

The Lakers’ offense.

Russell dribbled to the frontcourt, and transitioned to Clarkson.

Facing Zeng Xingyang, Clarkson didn’t bother passing back.

Russell saw the ball didn’t come back and went to one side to lie flat.

It’s not that I don’t want to score, it’s that my teammates won’t give me the ball.

Clarkson wanted Hibbert to screen, but Hibbert’s screen was bypassed by Zeng Xingyang.

Hibbert then left.

Helplessly, Clarkson passed the ball to Kobe on the other side.

Kobe faced Harris, made a quick stop, then jumped to shoot again.

Harris’s defense still held position, giving ample interference.

"Rim!"

The basketball bounced off the rim, but Randall boxed out Faried, grabbed the offensive rebound, and made a second shot.

Shui La is really mediocre, but Randall isn’t as bad as they say, occasionally showing some highlights.

Nuggets’ offense.

Zeng Xingyang received Jokic’s inbound pass, dribbling past half-court.

Compared to the defensive pressure Zeng Xingyang put on Clarkson, Clarkson on defense couldn’t exert much pressure on Zeng Xingyang.

Zeng Xingyang, tall and with a wide vision, passed to Nelson on one side after reaching the frontcourt.

Nelson passed again to Jokic at the arc top.

Zeng Xingyang ran over with Clarkson trailing, receiving a hand-off.

Jokic screened, switching defense, and the Nuggets players spread out again.

Zeng Xingyang kept confronting Hibbert in a mismatch.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Continuous crossover dribbling to adjust his pace, Hibbert pushed very close to limit Zeng Xingyang’s attack.

Though Zeng Xingyang’s explosiveness wasn’t strong, Hibbert got too close. Still, Zeng Xingyang sped up on the right to burst past.
