Reborn My Name Is Kobe

Chapter 74: I also want to detain Olajuwon

During the timeout, head coach Silver Fox Harris's expression suddenly became strange again. In fact, I couldn't understand the substitution that suspended him just now. Why did he take me off the field? In fact, if I entered

If my playing time is only about 20 minutes after starting, I might as well be on the bench. At least I can supplement the offensive firepower on the bench. Today's Rockets' posture is completely different from the last game.

I performed very well in this game. If I don't perform equally well in this game, it may be difficult for our Lakers to win this game.

Sure enough, after the timeout, I was replaced on the court again. Shaq and Van Exel were replaced to rest. Robert Horry was still on the court and was replaced by the Lakers' backup center.

Our current lineup is still focused on outside offense. Silver Fox Harris’s idea is to increase the speed and rhythm of the game. Both rush attacks and fast breaks are allowed. The Rockets’ main players have already played a lot.

For a long time, especially if the big dreams Olajuwon and Barkley don't come off the court, it will be difficult to keep up with our small lineup, and if they come off the court, the substitute insiders who will be replaced should not be able to.

There will be too strong defensive ability, and this time period is exactly the time for our lineup to chase points.

After the timeout, both Drexler and Barkley had been substituted, leaving only Olajuwon, a big dreamer, leading four substitute players on the court. After all, they already had a six-point score in their hands at this time.

advantage, so he actually has greater initiative in substitutions. All he needs to do is let Dameng stabilize the situation on both offense and defense and get through the end of the first quarter smoothly.

And I also followed the coach's ideas and improved the rhythm of the game a lot from the beginning. Most of the time after serving, I would directly transport the ball to the frontcourt as soon as possible, and my teammates would also reach their goal as soon as possible.

Get into the offensive position and stand by.

In fact, I found that the Rockets' bench players are still retreating very quickly. On the offensive end, they will only leave Da Meng to fight for offensive rebounds, and the rest will return to defense as soon as possible. In this case, we are

It's difficult to launch a fast break counterattack. On the one hand, we need at least two people to block the position to ensure defensive rebounds, and the rest of the people launch a fast break counterattack. The only ones who can pose a threat in the fast break are Eddie Jones and me.

However, I happened to use this time to develop some new understanding with Eddie Jones. We both happen to be swingmen. If we can achieve certain tactical coordination with each other, it will be difficult for the other defensive players to deal with it.

The first tactic that comes to my mind is to use breakthrough points or singles to attract double teams. Facts have proved that simple tactics often have some miraculous effects.

As the ball-handling point, I took advantage of the matchup to score two consecutive balls from the defensive player. For both of these balls, I used my speed and footsteps to directly knock the defensive player down and then scored an easy jumper.

For this reason, the Rockets no longer dare to use one-on-one defense against me. After all, the personal defensive abilities and experience of these substitute players are really difficult to stop my offense. But even if they send two people to double-team me, with their

The substitute players' tacit understanding was still unable to guard me.

However, after I broke into the penalty area and attracted many double-teams, I still chose to pass the ball to Eddie Jones, who had been waiting for a long time on the outside. I raised the knife with my hand and made a steady three-pointer. A wave of seven to zero.

The score was reversed in a moment of climax, and there was less than 1 minute left before the end of the first quarter.

It is definitely impossible for the Rockets to call another timeout at this time. Their defenders very carefully dribbled the ball across the half court after getting the ball. For their lineup, our defensive tactic is to resolutely double-team Olajuwon.

Of course, Olajuwon's personal ability is nothing to say, but at the age of 33, he has played the entire first quarter in a row, and it is definitely a bit difficult for him to face multiple double-teams and fight hard. The purpose of our double-teams is to make him

He passed the ball out to the substitute players who had just come on the field to shoot, and the result was exactly as we expected. The substitute players did not feel good after coming on the field. Several consecutive failures from the outside provided a good basis for our counterattack.

the basis of.

If they played normally in the last minute, the Rockets should have two offensive opportunities, and the Lakers would have one offensive opportunity. Olajuwon may have known that he would be double-teamed when he caught the ball in the paint, so he went straight to the free throw.

He receives the ball from a position outside the line. After he gets the ball from this position, it is difficult for our Lakers players to double-team him.

Because he has height, speed and good passing vision, Olajuwon at this time is equivalent to becoming an axis to support the offense. His every move will affect the offensive and defensive changes of both sides.

Olajuwon's basketball IQ is extremely high. In fact, there is no problem at all for him to serve as the team's commanding brain on the court. It's just that the strength of the Rockets' substitute players is a bit too poor. This is different from the previous situation of our Lakers.

It's also very similar to the fact that other than me, the Lakers couldn't find a player on the bench who could score independently.

In my opinion, Olajuwon has done enough for his teammates in these attacks, but it is a pity that they were unable to make open shots.

This time the big dream Olajuwon decided to attack on his own. He took the ball from the free throw line. The other Rockets players scattered to the three-point line and the bottom corner. When Olajuwon turned his back and started to go from the free throw line to

When the arch occurred, Robert Horry stepped forward to delay and fake double-team Olajuwon. Olajuwon had quick eyes and quick hands. He immediately used a ground pass to pass the ball to his teammate who came down from the baseline.

Dunk hit.

The next offense was the last offensive opportunity for our Lakers team in the first quarter. I held the ball in the high post looking for a pick-and-roll. Robert Horry came up to set a screen for me and did not follow it down. Instead, he continued to set the ball for Eli.

Dee Jones made a second pick-and-roll, and then all the defenders were moved to the three-quarter high position by Eddie Jones and I. Horry himself moved down to the three-point corner. At this time, no one was guarding him.

I pass the ball to him.

It's a pity that the open shot opportunity resulting from the perfect tactical execution this time was not successful. However, this ball let me know that Silver Fox Harris's complex tactics still have certain usability. If such an open shot appears at the critical moment,

Three-point opportunities would be very valuable.

Next was the Rockets' last offensive opportunity in the first quarter. There was only twelve seconds left for them. Olajuwon quickly moved forward to catch the ball near our free throw line. Because of his previous experience, this

No one double-teamed him once, and the center player guarding him directly stepped forward to interfere with Olajuwon's dribbling.

However, Olajuwon's footsteps were too flexible. When the Lakers substitute center defended him personally, Olajuwon turned around and bypassed the center guarding him several meters away.

He made a quick stop and put the ball firmly into the basket.

Olajuwon's dreamy dance moves are indeed well-deserved. You may be able to predict one step or two of his, but there is always a point in his entire footwork that can knock you out, and you will still be involuntarily stunned after being knocked out by him.

I lament that this guy is like a top dancer on the basketball court.

After the first quarter, the score gap between the two sides returned to almost the same starting line. At the beginning of the second quarter, head coach Silver Fox Harris put all the main players off the court. Now the Lakers' second lineup will

It will be led by Eddie Jones, I hope he can perform well.

Eddie Jones is actually very good when playing with the ball in hand. His personal singles ability is considered above average for the second position in the league. The only drawback is that his physical strength is not very strong.

Sometimes when defending the opponent's top defender, there will be some disadvantages. Of course, when facing the opponent's substitute players, this disadvantage is basically not obvious.

After the start of the second quarter, the Rockets also played with a full bench lineup. I was a little bit confused about why the Rockets head coach dared to do this, but this was also an opportunity to test the strength of the Lakers and Rockets' respective benches.

What's the quality?

Eddie Jones took the lead in launching the attack. His favorite method of attack was the pull-up jump shot. The offensive position was mainly concentrated at a 45-degree angle on the left side. He would use a series of dribbling and bowing movements to test the defensive players.

Center of gravity, when the defensive player retreats a little, he can directly use this gap to make a pull-up jump shot. This trick always works well.

In fact, Eddie Jones's jump shot is not very high, but his shot speed is very fast. When the defensive player is opened to a space, it will be very difficult for Eddie Jones to block the shot. This is a bit like Klay.

Thompson, it's just that Eddie Jones doesn't have the three-point accuracy and shooting stability as Buddha.

Of course, Eddie Jones's offensive method is very touchy. If his shooting feeling is not good, it will be difficult to score in other ways, because his breakthrough ability is not outstanding at the second position and is weak.

His body allows him to only use changes in footsteps and speed to find breakthrough opportunities. Once he encounters a defensive player with a very strong physical confrontation, it will be difficult to effectively break through and score. This is why in the end his cooperation with Shaq was not as good as mine and Shaq's.

The reason for the high coordination efficiency is that my personal breakthrough ability is much better than his. I can attract most of the attention of at least two defensive players, which can effectively reduce the risk of being double-teamed for Shaq.

Of course, when facing the Rockets' bench players, Eddie Jones's various scoring methods will not encounter much obstruction. He can smoothly get the points he deserves, just like when I led the bench lineup before,

The main scoring task will fall on us.

But sometimes you can get a little surprise if you choose to trust your teammates. Although the Lakers' bench players are not strong, they are still NBA-level players. Many times, when the opportunity is right, you can pass more passes to them, especially when

After you attract enough double-teams and defenses, sometimes it may be these substitute players who can change the course of the game.

The chemical reaction between Eddie Jones and the Lakers' bench players is quite good. In the first three minutes of the second quarter, he made two consecutive three-pointers from the outside. Both of these three-pointers were made by Eddie.

Jones's single created an open three-point opportunity, and the Lakers' bench players finally got the chance. Counting Eddie Jones's own four points, the Lakers went up ten to two in the second quarter.

The small climax forced the Rockets to call a timeout.

After Eddie Jones came off the field, I stepped forward and said a few words of encouragement to him. Head coach Silver Fox Harris seemed to feel that

My eyes lit up. If he had known earlier that Eddie Jones was so suitable for the role of sixth man, he would have asked him to switch positions with me much earlier.

Facts have proved that today's rotation arrangement is quite good. Next, I need to better integrate into the starting lineup.

Head coach Silver Fox Harris also encouraged the performance of the substitute players, but then the main players will return to the court one after another. The substitute players except Eddie Jones will be replaced again, and all the starting players except Horry will be replaced.

was replaced.

The Rockets have basically replaced all the main players except the big dream Olajuwon. In this way, the two sides are basically back on the same starting line. Although we are still six points ahead of the Rockets,

But for NBA teams, such a point difference can only be overturned in two or three rounds.

After playing this time, I completely let go of my hands and feet, preparing to attack the Rockets' defense on the offensive end. After all, we are waiting for work at home, and the Rockets' road trip consumes a lot of money, and their core players are old.

It's too big. We just need to increase the speed. Only when the number of rounds increases will we have an advantage.

In the first round after Sir Barkley used his pig arch to score two points, Shaq directly threw the ball to me, and I didn't wait too long for my teammates to catch up, so I charged alone.

Killing the Rockets in the core area of ​​the penalty area, they also had a few defensive players at this time, but without Olajuwon's deterrence in the paint, I didn't pay attention to the other players at all.

I rushed forward with the ball, and Barkley had already run over from the side. If I didn't slow down or change direction, there would be only one result, and that would be to collide with this big fat pig in the air. With my weight and

If my strength collides with this guy's, I will definitely be the unlucky one. You must know that Barkley's strength is not weak even when facing Shaq.

Just a second before I was about to hit him, I made an extremely difficult forward turn. It seemed that I didn't expect that I could react like this at such a close distance, and neither did Barkley.

He was able to further interfere with my layup. After turning around and passing him, I made a layup and hit the board.

The enthusiastic cheers sounded again in the Staples Arena. I put my hands to my ears and pretended that I couldn't hear clearly. Then the cheers from the fans in the Staples Arena became even louder.

A lot bigger.

In the next round, the glider Drexler originally wanted to beat me alone again, but the flying pig Barkley next to him was desperately trying to get the ball. It seemed that he didn't guard me in the last round, which made him lose face a little bit.

I want to come back with an ANSWERBALL in this round.

In fact, Barkley not only knows how to play in the low post, but his flexibility and dribbling ability allow him to control the ball and attack like a small guard. In this round, he seems to be planning to control the ball and attack.

In fact, the Rockets' inside center at this time was Barkley, a flying pig who was less than two meters tall. His opponent was naturally Shaq. Shaq was very willing to guard Barkley outside, so he switched positions in the end.

After that, I could only defend Barkley. When Barkley saw that I was guarding him, he seemed to have played into his hands. He wished that I could guard him so that he could directly get back to the top.

I lost face in this round.

I saw the unkind expression on Barkley's face, so I just smiled. No matter what you do, it's impossible to score easily under my defense.

In any case, Barkley's main offensive methods are post-ups and attacks to the basket. What power does he have standing outside the three-point line? But I soon realized that I had thought wrong.

This guy is really a guy who can go directly from the three-point line to the penalty area, but of course I won't let him just take my point so easily. Anyway, I haven't committed a single foul in this game, so when Barkley

When I got to a more threatening offensive area in a singles game, I went directly to get his ball. Even if I didn't get it, I could still destroy his attack by fouling.

However, my wishful thinking was not done well. I didn't know that this flying fat pig has unimaginable turning flexibility. Compared with my turning in the attack just now, it is no less flexible. The most important thing is that the cross-section of his body is very

It was huge. With one turn, I was knocked from the free throw line to near the three-point line. I could only watch as he rushed into the paint.

Just when Barkley, the flying pig, thought he could complete the attack with a powerful dunk, Shaq finally showed his strength. Facing the bigger shark, the big flying pig suddenly got stage fright. However,

At this time, he was already flying in the air, and he could only rush down.

When Shaq and Barkley met head-on in the air, it was like a spark hitting the earth, erupting with terrifying force. The force of the rebound caused the two big fat men to lose their center of gravity in the air due to the rebound force, and they both fell to the ground.

On the ground.

However, in the face of such a tragic scene, the referee did not call a foul, so everyone who thought there would be a foul stayed in place for a moment. The glider reacted extremely quickly, and took the ball before everyone could recover.

Picked it up from the ground and flew to the basket again. This time there was no Shaq to protect the basket. The glider successfully attacked the basket and the Rockets got two points.

This ball is not unexciting, especially the moment when the flying pig Barkley and Shaq collided in the air. You will definitely imagine some kind of terrible scene in your mind, but the real situation may not be imagined yet.

The attack was so terrifying. After all, these two guys were strong enough and could barely absorb part of the impact through their fat.

After this goal, the game between the two sides once again entered a fierce stalemate. Both our Lakers and the opposing Rockets have begun to treat this game as a playoff game, and defensive actions and physical contact have also begun to escalate. Buck

Liben is an unforgiving man. Faced with Shaq's trash talk, this guy can come up with all kinds of weird and provocative words. There were a few times that made me laugh from ear to ear.

.

But Barkley is not the kind of player who just talks a lot but has no strength. Like Larry Bird, he uses his strength to talk a lot but is not merciful. In fact, Jordan seems to be this kind of player as well.

, Haha, players in this era are quite temperamental.

Shaq got fed up with Barkley's comments and began to attack Barkley's inside line hard. Barkley also knew that front-on confrontation was definitely not as good as Shaq's. After irritating Shaq with his words, he started to run away, and was even beaten by Shaq.

After dunking two balls, my mouth became much better.

Of course, there is nothing Barkley can do about Shaq on the defensive end, but he can teach Shaq how to behave on the offensive end. In view of Shaq's weakness of not liking to defend, Barkley actually shot a three-pointer from outside the three-point line.

The shooting percentage is not very high, but at least he can probably score one out of three shots. If Shaq completely let him go, he would really dare to keep shooting.

If someone changes defense, Barkley will back up the player who is changing defense. Didn't I just suffer this loss?

Five minutes into the second quarter, Silver Fox Harris called a timeout again. During this period, although the scene on the court was very lively, with steals here and blocks there, the score changed at first glance.

Not big, the pace of the game is fast, but the actual hit rate is not high.

The fast offensive and defensive rhythm also consumes the physical energy of the players on the court very quickly. Especially Eddie Jones, who has been playing for a long time, can no longer keep up with the team's speed. He also needs a good rest after this timeout.

one time.

However, my physical fitness has not been greatly exhausted. Just now, Shaq was having fun by himself. He insisted on getting angry with Barkley. In the first few balls, he was able to hit the inside successfully, but then Shaq wanted to play in the low post.

If the ball is passed, a Rockets player will come over to double-team Shaq. Shaq will take action as soon as he dribbles the ball. Either the ball is intercepted by Shaq, or the thug fouls. In short, Shaq is not allowed to hold the ball normally and attack. Shaq is also to blame.

He failed to live up to his expectations, and his opponents sent him to the free throw line again and again. He just couldn't seize this easy scoring opportunity. After a few more shots, Shaq himself didn't want to catch the ball, especially after missing five consecutive free throws.

, our Lakers home court began to boo his free throws.

To be honest, Shaq's free throws are really unstable. In fact, his free throws are not inaccurate in all games and at all times. I remember that he made 9 of 10 free throws in one game this season, but it was just that one game.

, more often than not, it is 4 out of 10 free throws and 3 out of 10 free throws.

There is another strange thing. As Shaq himself said, his free throws at critical moments are much more accurate than usual. The NBA even made a statistics on this. In the last two minutes of the fourth quarter, Shaq's free throws were more accurate than usual.

Ke's hit rate can reach 62%, which is much higher than his career hit rate of about 50%. As for how to explain this strange phenomenon, it is a matter of opinion.

After the timeout ended, Shaq and Eddie Jones were replaced, and Horry was replaced on the court. Barkley was replaced on the Rockets' side, and Olajuwon was replaced on the court.

Glider Drexler continued to play against me. At this time, he had changed the way he played. He was no longer the starting point of the team's tactics. Instead, the big dream Olajuwon, who had just come on the field, was the core of the tactics.

Just like in the last few minutes of the first quarter, Dameng began to act as a supporting center, and the glider played without the ball.

Originally, with my speed and physical strength, it was not completely impossible to chase Drexler to death. However, Olajuwon's pick-and-roll skills were too high and he was able to completely block me every time.

On the outside, the pick-and-roll was so strong that it drove me crazy, and my teammates didn't have time to cover Drexler.

The launch point of the glider's jump shot is extremely high, which is difficult to defend. Coupled with a little fade and high-quality pick and roll, I have no way to use this tactic continuously.

Only then did I realize that the glider's power without the ball was much greater than his direct attack with the ball. If I was completely helpless with this move, then I'm afraid only the great Jordan could limit it.

Of course, I actually still have a lot to learn from Jordan. At this time, I have no way to crack the Rockets' high-quality pick-and-roll. It's not just a matter of the defensive players' personal defensive abilities, but also the defense of the entire team.

System problems.

Before today's game, our Lakers performed

The tactics I practice are mainly offensive tactics, and the real defensive tactics are just a few words. Maybe next time I should give some suggestions to Silver Fox Harris and ask him to design some for our Lakers team.

Develop a way to break the pick and roll.

Of course, I also know that Silver Fox Harris's tactics are mainly on the offensive end. On defense, he may not really have any good methods to use.

Fortunately, Drexler's good touch didn't last too long. Although I couldn't break Olajuwon's pick-and-roll, my non-stop pursuit was as close as Death Coil.

Defense still greatly consumed Glider's physical energy, causing his shooting percentage to drop significantly.

This may be the only way to stop him. After all, they are already 33 or 34-year-old veterans. In the first half, I was able to force them to use special tricks to play. To be honest, I didn't think it was a loss.

Our Lakers need to use a different strategy on the offensive end than before. The emergence of Olajuwon has made the Rockets' overall defense more three-dimensional. In this regard, I decided to let the players whose physical fitness has declined a bit.

Drexler spends more energy on the defensive end. As long as I receive the ball, I will use my strength to attack the position defended by the glider, and try my best to cause him to foul by creating physical contact.

In this game, the referee's penalty scale was actually relatively loose. However, after the second quarter, the physical confrontation between the two sides increased, so the referee gradually reduced the penalty scale to be more stringent later on.

Therefore, I took advantage of my speed and footwork to create a shooting foul on Glider. In fact, it might be better if he didn't guard me too tightly. After all, the Rockets have a big dream inside Olajuwon.

exists.

After I caused two consecutive shooting fouls on Glider, he no longer dared to use so much defensive intensity on me. He would intentionally let me break through the space, and Olajuwon behind him also began to focus on it.

Keep an eye on my position, even if Horry misses his baseline defense, he won't hesitate.

In another offensive round of our Lakers team, I still want to rush into the Rockets' interior to carry out a massacre. If I can dunk over the head of the dream Olajuwon, it will be a good one.

It’s been a great feat for a while, but I don’t know if Olajuwon will give me this opportunity.

I first moved the ball in place, not wanting the Rockets defensive players to see what I was thinking at this time. I was doing fake dribbling movements while observing the position of the Rockets defensive players.

Determining where my teammates might run and when I should pass the ball if I encounter a double-team after launching this attack.

I used to not think about such detailed content when I was playing, but today when I entered the starting lineup and I needed to take into account some of the team's organization and tactics, I unconsciously had some such thoughts.

But I quickly put those thoughts behind me. The only thing that was thinking about was how to throw the damn basketball into the basket.

When Glider saw that I hadn't moved, he was ready to come forward and grab me. But I also knew that he couldn't really grab me with three fouls. Taking advantage of his psychological loophole, I just hit hard with all my strength.

It hit me like a glider from the direction it came from. Sure enough, when he saw my action, he subconsciously shrank back. I quickly changed the direction of my body and used a body to change direction. There was nothing Drexler could do.

When he reacted, he accelerated and rushed over again.

This time, the other defensive players of the Rockets made up defense very quickly. They quickly formed a small encirclement. When I saw something bad, I immediately made an emergency stop, then turned around, made another emergency stop, and accelerated along the baseline.

Rushing towards the inside, several defensive players were confused by my huge change of direction and turn. Even I didn't know how I accomplished this series of actions in one breath.

When I was halfway through the rush, a tall figure appeared in front of me. He looked at me angrily, as if I was about to fall under his claws. However, I didn't know where I got it.

With great courage, facing the huge intimidation of him standing under the basket, I not only had no fear, but instead used the bursts of heat that exploded in my body along the way to concentrate all my strength on my feet.

As the saying goes, when we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. Even if you are Olajuwon, the king of blocks in history, I will challenge you today.

This rising momentum started from the soles of my feet and flowed through the blood vessels throughout my body. The momentum that was about to burst out immediately helped me leap into the air. This time I still used one foot to take off. I had tested this before in a gym near Jessica's home.

Looking at my own jumping ability, I found that my best take-off position is still taking off from one foot.

Olajuwon came first from behind. Although my take-off speed was amazing, after all, he had the advantage in height and wingspan, but he may have underestimated the final take-off height of my ball. When his body had reached its highest point,

At that time, my body was still in the process of rising. His left hand hit my face, but it did not pull me down. I could feel that my body was still rising. Finally, I

He also used his left hand to slightly support Olajuwon's shoulder. With the help of this rebounding force, his whole body lifted upward again, ending the attack with an almost forehead-flat dunk.

After completing the dunk, I originally wanted to grab the basket with both hands to maintain my balance. However, the momentum of the dunk was too great, and I was hit by Olajuwon in the air.

He lost all balance in the air.

After landing, I rolled many times and rolled far, far behind the basket frame before finally coming to a stop. As the referee's whistle sounded, I found that my eyes were full of gold stars, and I even felt a little dizzy in my head.

Fortunately, the referee called a foul on Olajuwon's ball, which allowed me to calm down a little. My teammates rushed over quickly, but they did not immediately pull me up from the ground. After confirming that there was nothing serious about me,

After a while, he pulled me up again.

I turned my neck, and the Venus in front of me seemed to still exist. I blinked my eyes a few more times, and finally suppressed the dizziness temporarily. The endless applause in the entire Staples Arena made me laugh.

I'm even more dizzy.

I took a few deep breaths and waited until the baskets in front of me changed from several to one. Then I shot the free throw. Unfortunately, the basketball rotated dozens of times in the hoop, but it just wouldn't roll in. The last shot was in the hoop.

It rolled out under the action of inertia.

But it doesn’t matter, this dunk over the head of the big dream Olajuwon is enough for me to brag in front of Shaq for a season. You know, the last time the Lakers played against the Rockets, I also wanted to play in the Olajuwon.

Rajuwon dunked once on top of his head. At that time, he was forced down by the big dream Olajuwon. This time he finally succeeded. This was not just an ordinary dunk and two points, it was for me.

The increase in self-confidence has a huge effect, it means that I have the courage to challenge the top defensive players in the league head-on.

And the top players I want to challenge next are Iverson and Jordan.

After completing this dunk, the momentum of our entire Lakers team instantly overwhelmed the Rockets. After all, this is the home court of our Lakers. Coupled with the crazy cheering fans in the Staples Arena, the Rockets players

The expression on his face is really ugly.

After two rounds, the Rockets coach couldn't stand it anymore and could only call a timeout again. As soon as I got off the court, I received a warm greeting from Shaq. He actually hit me again on the head, which was full of satisfaction.

He was smiling and dancing, saying that my dunk was such a relief.

I said angrily that Olajuwon didn't give me a concussion just now, and you were going to make it up for me.

After hearing this, Shaq laughed loudly and said that he gave me a big elbow before and it didn't give me a concussion. How could it happen now?

After hearing this, I could only giggle silently. How long can my life be safe with such an idiot teammate?

No matter what, all the Lakers players seemed to be inspired by my dunk. They instantly felt that Dream Olajuwon was nothing more than that. Some people even said how could Shaq be shaved off by Dream in the first place?

Shaq was not happy to hear this. He said that Dream is just getting old. Everyone will get old. Even the top stars in the NBA will get old one day. And this is only the regular season. If you have seen it,

Olajuwon, the big dream in the playoffs, is simply a god descending from the earth.

I interrupted Shaq and said, don't always build up other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige. The morale that my dunk gave to my teammates was almost completely offset by a few words of yours.

Shaq just smiled and didn't continue. Silver Fox Harris saw us talking and laughing here, but he didn't bother to say too much. He should be quite satisfied with our performance today, regardless of whether

In terms of energy and competitive state, our Lakers team is at a peak today. If we can maintain this state, we may be able to compete with defending champions like the Chicago Bulls.

After the timeout, all the starting players of our Lakers team were replaced, and the Rockets also replaced all their main players. At this time, our Lakers led the Rockets by 4 points, 48 ​​to 44.

, although we have always had a slight advantage on the scene, there is no way to convert this momentum advantage into a double-digit lead.

One possible reason is that our offensive moves can only cause superficial damage to the Rockets. There is no way to score many points in a row, and there is no way to completely suppress the Rockets' offense for a long period of time. We may win a few points during this period.

, but they will lose again after a while, so in the end the situation between the two sides is a stalemate of back and forth.

It will definitely be very difficult to defeat the Rockets directly. After all, they have several Hall of Fame-level superstars in the team. As long as their will is not broken, they are likely to fight with us until the last moment of the game.

Decide the final winner.

Of course, we will not be afraid of all this. We have enough willpower to persevere and maintain this strong momentum until the end.
