Second Round! The Avenger! League's New King's Contest!

"COME ON!

Kobe's fadeaway jumper was just too tough!"

"The difficulty was too high!"

"So cool!"

Kobe's clutch three-pointer, the Lakers lead by 3 points.

But there's no time left.

The Lakers won the game, they tied the series.

And the bloodthirsty 'Black Mamba' and 'Chris Paul', they seized the momentum, winning three straight games to ultimately reverse the Mavericks.

The Lakers came back from a 1:3 deficit.

Two reasons: First, the 'Diamond Backcourt' of Paul and Kobe, their combat power was still too fierce.

Second, Kobe's extreme desire to win, his monstrous stamina, and
