My Name is Kobe Bryant
Chapter 436 Undefeated team?
When the Lakers won two consecutive victories at home, everyone was surprised to find out.
The Lakers have become so far! The only undefeated team in the league!
Sweep the king!
Sweep the supersonic!
2:0 Houston!
Even the Bulls lost one, a surprise loss to the Atlanta Hawks in the second round.
And the Lakers have always maintained an undefeated record!
9 wins! 9 consecutive victories in the playoffs!
This record is very exaggerated, especially since most of the Lakers' opponents are top teams.
Although the players in the game have ups and downs with each other, even the core players are absent. But so far no team has beaten them.
"I see the champion." This is the Lakers' mortal enemy, the remarks of Boston Celtics star Larry Bird. He was kicked out of the management team because of a disagreement with the Celtics' internal management staff, and he has been serving as a commentator this season.
It is said that the Pacers' Larry Brown contract expires next season, and he will take over as the head coach of the Pacers.
Although he is the mortal enemy of the Lakers, Larry Bird felt that the Lakers team had initially gathered the championship temperament for the first time.
"OK's growth and strength have exceeded everyone's expectations." This is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's emotion.
"Does anyone still think that the Lakers are a soft persimmon in the playoffs?" The magician grinned, his white teeth showing his inner excitement.
"They just defended the home court! Back in Houston, after Charles comes back, Houston will beat the Lakers hard!" Ralph Thompson's words made Houston fans shudder.
You can shut up!
"Shaq played very smartly in front of Hakeem. Maybe he will win the throne of center in this round of playoffs, just like what Michael did to MAGIC." Chamberlain also flashed in front of the camera.
There was a lot of discussion, and the game between the Lakers and Houston caused a lot of discussion and controversy.
Most people expected that in the absence of Barkley, it would be difficult for the Lakers to win at home in Houston. But it was not expected that this game would become a massacre, and the nearly 30-point difference shocked everyone.
Unknowingly, has the Lakers team, which seems to have stumbled all the way, but has never fallen, reached such a position?
The results of this round of the series seem to have cast a veil again.
There are many division finals where a 2:0 lead was overturned. It can be said that no loss at home does not mean that they are behind.
As long as Houston defends the remaining three home games and wins one of the Lakers' remaining two home games, then it can come back!
This is not uncommon! There are still a lot of old-school players and fans who firmly believe that Houston will win!
"The next game! I will crush the bones of those little Lakers!" Barkley announced his comeback in a high-profile manner.
"Charles, did those fists of Big Ben hurt you?"
Barkley's expression changed.
"No injuries, those punches were too soft! The Lakers players are too soft! Ben Wallace? What is the name of that rookie kid? If he didn't sneak up on me from behind, but fight me with real swords and guns in the front , I'll hit him until his mother doesn't even know him!"
"Really? I heard from your team doctor that you have a fractured face and jaw, and you need to wear a mask in the next game?"
"FAKE NEWS!" Barkley twitched the corner of his mouth, grunted, and left the press conference in despair.
That's right, he was indeed fractured in the face by Big Ben's three punches, and the team doctor asked him to wear a mask.
But how could the great tough Sir Charles admit this in a press conference!
It really has to be called FAKE!
Otherwise it wouldn't be a shame!
Detrimental to my tough guy image.
Barkley has always regarded himself as an old-school tough guy, but anyone who really knows this guy knows it well.
He is actually a reckless man with no clear mind. He has changed three teams, from being the younger brother of Dr. J in Philadelphia at the beginning, to the Suns becoming the boss, and then realizing that being the boss is too difficult, and he wants to easily draw a champion and join him. Olajuwon.
In fact, Barkley chose to escape along the way!
He escaped to succeed Dr. J! Escape from leading the sun to its peak!
His final choice is always easy, he is not a tough guy like he shows at all! He's just a big-mouthed brat. If he was loyal, he should have stayed in Philadelphia. You must know that Philadelphia at that time could also build a championship team for him.
"Don't be complacent! Don't think you've won!" Harris said in the last team meeting before the Lakers headed to Houston.
From the nervousness of the young players entering the playoffs to the adaptation in these few games, the rhythm of the team's young people is very good. They have been able to exert their abilities to the best. The Lakers' offense has been smooth in these two games. It's no longer like relying solely on two OK players in the early playoffs. Kobe's 16 assists are evidence. All the balls he passed were converted into points by his teammates, which is why he has such a high assist.
But Harris has always been a little worried, whether the media's praise will make these little guys in the Lakers arrogant! ?
Confidence is a good thing, but arrogance is a stupid thing, especially in the face of a veteran team like Houston, if you underestimate them, they will come back immediately.
It is very necessary to give the young people of the Lakers a wake-up call.
Although the Lakers players are really not floating.
They also want to float, but the pressure from their opponents in the playoffs makes them really unable to float!
Eddie Jones also averaged 14 points per game in the last few games, and his scoring average and efficiency in the first round were even more frightening.
Let alone Bowen, his three-point shooting percentage has never exceeded 35% in the playoffs.
Xiaoyu performed well on the defensive end, but he was a bit confused on the offensive end, and more of the organization of the bench has been handed over to Horry.
Big Ben has not played much in the playoffs so far, his playing time has been severely compressed, and his offensive shortcomings will be infinitely magnified in the playoffs.
Except for old monsters like Kobe, it is really difficult for normal people to perform well in the playoffs in their rookie year.
Campbell and Matt Geiger were blown up in the playoffs. They can be said to be the role that the Lakers seriously lagged behind.
That is to say, several main veterans as rotation players, such as Horry, Curry, and Kersey performed well.
The other players are really unable to float.
"The game in Houston will be far more difficult than we imagined." Curt Rambis also expressed emotion.
There will be a piece of red purgatory, and it will be very difficult to escape completely.
In these few games, Olajuwon started, and once Drexler, Jim Jackson and Barkley started at home, the defensive system that the Lakers had finally established was easily broken.
