Chapter 822: Fierce Battle! Kobe's Face Turns Black!

The "Twin Stars" and the "OD Duo."

The strength of the true cores of both teams... is truly fierce.

Four All-Star players are battling it out on the court, trading blows; the game is so good... the fans are watching with extreme pleasure.

The Bulls have been dominant for most of the season, and their 72 wins declare them the strongest team in the league this season, perhaps even without equal.

But now.

The fact that the Heat can trade blows with the Bulls shows... the Heat's strength is also truly formidable.

And why did the Heat barely make the playoffs last year, but become a championship contender this year?!

Why?!

Actually, the team itself didn't have many reinforcements; the most important thing was the arrival of "Big Shark" O'Neal.

His arrival alone instantly changed the entire Heat team, giving them championship-level strength.

So.

To a certain extent, this already explains what kind of capability O'Neal has; he still possesses the ability to influence the game.

And when fans see the changes in the Heat after O'Neal's arrival, the first person they think of... is Kobe Bryant.

The two had a falling out last offseason.

Both undoubtedly want to prove that they are the stronger one in the "OK Duo."

Now O'Neal's Heat have a chance to win the championship.

Kobe's Lakers didn't even make the playoffs.

Inside a villa in Los Angeles.

Kobe is lying on the sofa in the large living room, watching this duel between the Bulls and the Heat.

Before the game, he was hoping for the "Dragon Country Twin Stars" to crush the Heat.

But as the game progresses, and as the Twin Stars and the "OD Duo" continue to battle, his face turns increasingly black.

O'Neal is still displaying more powerful combat strength than he imagined.

Regardless of whether the Heat can win this game.

He can foresee that the newspapers the next day will be full of praise for O'Neal, and also a lot of... belittling and cursing towards him.

No need to think.

There will definitely be comparisons.

In such a comparison, he, Kobe, is the one being humiliated; how can he accept this?!

He cannot accept it.

"Hmph!"

Kobe snorts coldly, "It's only been one season; my growth has just begun, while his peak is about to pass.

Give me a little more time.

Time will definitely verify my strength and will definitely prove that I also have the ability to lead a team to a championship.

Those who denounce me will eventually come to praise me!!!"

Thinking of this.

A fiery light flashes in Kobe's eyes; he sits up abruptly from the sofa and stops watching the game.

Instead, he changes into a training suit and goes to the private basketball court outside the villa for night training.

To grow.

To become stronger.

It's not about lip service, not about just saying it; it's about hard training day and night.

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

Vanessa pulls back the floor-to-ceiling curtains in the master bedroom and leans on the bed, watching her beloved husband training on the court outside.

Her eyes... are full of Kobe.

"You just keep working hard; you will definitely become the strongest player, you will definitely become the strongest player in the league!"

Vanessa believes deeply.

Returning to the court.

Both teams are fighting hard throughout the first half, both wanting to solve the game with offense.

But after all, they are both strong teams, so it's not easy.

The reason the Bulls are so strong and play so easily this season, besides their enhanced offensive firepower.

Their defense is also very effective.

Su Yan's DPOY-level defense at the 2-guard position goes without saying.

Iguodala at the 3-guard position, as a newcomer to the league, is also known for his defense and is a player who specializes in fast breaks.

His outstanding physical fitness gives him impressive defensive ability.

Chandler at the 4-spot also has the ceiling of a "rebound monster," and his defensive ability in the paint is also very strong.

Da Yao at the 5-spot, his interior defense is also unquestionable.

Except for being slightly weaker at the 1-spot.

The Bulls' defense is also online throughout the game. ===== CHAPTER 824 =====
