Reborn as Kobe - Chapter 167

The Rockets have the ball, Nash holds the ball, and steadily led the half-time, handed it to Olajuwon, O’Neal personally played the single defense dream, this is O’Neal’s long-awaited matchup.

Olajuwon is known as a big dream, but it is a nightmare that O’Neill lingers on. Olajuwon at his peak actually caused damage to many stars in the same period. Except for the same trapeze Jordan who was able to suppress him, he has never been at a disadvantage with others.

At the beginning of the year, O’Neill was once educated by Ewing, David Robinson and others. Among them, Olajuwon was the one who beat him the worst. When O’Neal broke into the finals for the first time, Olajuwon swept him out 4-0 and won the second O’Brien trophy in his career.

“Shaquille, holding the thigh of a rookie to win the championship, it seems you are very proud.” Olajuwon mocked.

“Well, what do you mean?” O’Neill’s face was ugly.

“Is the Lakers your team? Sooner or later you will be swept out, because Kobe is the Lakers’ real son.”

Olajuwon took advantage of O’Neal’s distraction and swiped his wrist to pass the ball. Duncan received the ball and Barkley was defending Duncan.

Buckley slammed Duncan, he knew how powerful this so-called Flying Demon King was.

Barkley was careful and careful but couldn’t prevent it. Duncan suddenly accelerated and turned around, stepped in for a small jump, and then took off and dunked with one hand.

Barkley became the background board completely. 30:33.

Barkley looked at O’Neal with an angry face. If it weren’t for O’Neal’s distraction, Duncan wouldn’t be able to enter the penalty area.

Kobe came over and said, “Charles, relax. I’ll pass the ball to you in a while. You can pay him back and let Tim learn how the flying pig is.”

Kobe’s tone was very peaceful, and Barkley calmed down in an instant.

The Lakers attacked Kobe with the ball through halftime, crossed the screen with Ray Allenley and immediately divided the ball to Barkley.

Barkley began to play Duncan on his back. “Tim, you disrespect seniors so much. See how I teach you.”

“Charles, I am your fan.”

Duncan’s tone was extremely sincere, but his smile was like a devil.

The referee Crawford wanted to give Duncan a T, but after thinking about the command of the president, he finally held back.

Barkley looked back and looked at Duncan’s meaningful smile and was immediately angry. He slammed Duncan away from his back, violently, like a winged…Well, it’s like Pikachu flapping his ears, and Barkley rose into the sky. , Holding the ball in both hands, unstoppable, as if trying to destroy all the obstacles that prevented him, smashed Olajuwon who wanted to block and dunked the ball into the basket. 30:35.

After completing this heavy dunk, Barkley, who fell on the ground, raised his hands and listened to the cheers of the entire Staples Center.

Over time, the second quarter of the game has been played for eight minutes. The scoreboard shows 46 to 51. The Rockets are five points behind, and the scores of the two teams are still anxious.

During this period of time, the two teams were completely showcasing all sorts of amazing scoring performances. Both sides are already trying their best to defend, but no one can prevent them. Kobe and Nash’s various unconstrained passes made people scream again and again.

“Smith, do Nash and Kobe have eyes behind their backs? How did they see that location is simply incredible.” Link slapped the table and yelled.

Smith commented excitedly: “This requires the point guard’s technology to reach the top level, and the teammates’ ball quotient and athletic ability are strong enough, otherwise it may become a mistake if the cooperation is not tacit.”

The Rockets were very tough and went into the second half with the score.

“Hakim, can you hold on?”

Rudy Tomjanovich handed a bottle of water to his lover, and D’Antoni next to him also looked at Olajuwon scorchingly.

The Rockets have too many young players and lack of experience in the playoffs. Without Olajuwon, it is easy to crash. Even the super strong Duncan is only a second year.

“Don’t worry, coach, I can stick to it.”

Olajuwon gave the two coaches a confident look, and the surrounding Rockets players were shocked and confident after hearing these words.

In fact, Olajuwon’s heart is disturbed. O’Neal puts pressure on him like a mountain, which he had never imagined before. He did not expect that O’Neill would be so strong in a full-blown outbreak. Olajuwon felt that he was even at the peak. Time is not necessarily able to suppress O’Neill at this time.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Lakers attacked first.

Bryant took Jackson with the ball and ran to the left corner, Barkley stepped forward to make a ball-free screen, giving Ray Allen a pick and roll.

Ray Allen got rid of Carter and cut directly into the paint. At this time, Kobe’s ball was also properly passed. Ray Allen received the ball and made a successful layup.

This is a very classic triangle offensive coordination commanded by Kobe. 46:53.

Seeing the smooth triangle offensive coordination of the Lakers, Rudy Tomjanovich and D’Antoni looked at each other, and both became uneasy.

The once powerful Bulls emerged from the triangle offensive and achieved the triumph of the Triple Crown. Later, they won two consecutive championships. If it weren’t for the rise of the Lakers, maybe the Bulls would build another dynasty.

Rudy Tomjanovich and D’Antoni communicated in a low voice and decided to wait and see what happened.

The Rockets attacked, Nash handed the ball to Olajuwon. After Olajuwon held the ball, his body leaned slightly and tested O’Neal’s defensive center of gravity. He suddenly turned to the left and flickered, and then turned to the right again. Shaking O’Neal’s center of gravity completely, and turning around again, O’Neal, who had lost his defensive position, could only watch Olajuwon gently put the ball into the basket. 48:53.

O’Neal once again lost to Big Dream.

Kobe dropped the ball to O’Neal, turned around to make a wall for Ray Allen, blocking Carter, Ray Allen was open, O’Neal passed the ball in time, Ray Allen easily hit a high jumper.

From these two offenses, it can be seen that the Lakers’ triangle offensive tactics are very proficient, not inferior to the Bulls in the peak period. A few back and forth pick-and-rolls and passes can tear off the Rockets’ defense.

Olajuwon’s physical strength began to decline, and it was obvious that his pace had slowed down. D’Antoni had to replace the sweaty Olajuwon with O’Neal.

When Olajuwon came off the field, the Rockets lost their spiritual leader, and the game began to be chaotic. Under the control of Kobe, the Lakers took the opportunity to use a smooth triangle offense to break the Rockets’ defense.

At the end of the third quarter, the score was 73 to 83, and the Lakers had expanded the point difference to ten digits.

“Are you very frustrated, the Lakers easily broke the defensive levee we worked so hard to build, but don’t forget, where is our strongest place, Tim, you tell us, our opponents fear the most.” Rudy Tomjanovich asked.

Duncan felt his chin for a moment and said calmly: “It’s our offense. Our offense is not inferior to the Lakers. We put too much energy on defense and lost our aggressiveness.”

Rudy Tomjanovich gave a thumbs up and said: “Tim has a very good analysis, passing the ball, passing the ball in a wide range, once they double-team, then they will inevitably empty someone, regardless of the Lakers. How fast the rotation is, there must be gaps, so only a wide range of passes can break the Lakers’ defense. In the last quarter, let us use an attack to destroy the enemy.”

After entering the playoffs, especially after entering the Western Conference semifinals, D’Antoni took the initiative to hand over the command to Rudy Tomjanovich, and he was willing to start the old coach, starting from Rudy Tomjanovich. With Norwich, D’Antoni found that he has a long way to go. He must continue to learn to enrich himself and improve his running and bombing tactics.

In the last quarter, the main players from both sides took firm steps to debut. In this game, the substitute players on both sides played very little time, because this kind of high-intensity game rookies can easily lose their way.

The Rockets attacked, Nash held the ball quickly, and Barkley entangled Duncan from the first second of the fourth quarter.

“Oh, Charles, you are old, you don’t need to work so hard, I will let you.” Duncan, who was boring himself, smiled and teased Barkley.

“Tim, you are right. I’m older, but it’s more than enough to deal with you.”

Barkley was unmoved and his defense was tighter.

Nash passed the ball to Olajuwon, who was in the low post, and immediately moved to the other side to help Carter attract the defense. Olajuwon waltzed with the ball under the basket and passed the ball covertly to the cut-in Carter. Unfortunately, Carter flew up and wanted to dunk, but Kobe, who was caught up, slammed the ball down with a big cap.

When the basketball hit Jackson’s leg out of bounds, the ball went to the Lakers.

The Lakers offense, this time Kobe did not direct everyone to play a triangle offense, but directly gave the ball to O’Neal for singles.

After receiving the ball, O’Neal slammed Olajuwon away, dodges the defending Duncan, and directly hooked the ball to the basket. The ball was still interfered and the hook missed the iron.

Duncan got stuck and took the ball easily, put up his big elbow and drove Barkley away who was trying to steal the ball, and then passed it to Nash.

Nash dribbled the ball steadily for the half-court, and after Olajuwon fell into position, he passed the ball to Olajuwon to deal with, and he started running on the outside.

At the moment Olajuwon received the ball, Kobe suddenly came up to double-team and waved to block Olajuwon’s passing route and sight.

Olajuwon used his experience to pass the ball accurately to Jackson, who ran to the right. But Kobe moved so fast that he immediately rushed over.

Jackson was not greedy, and immediately distributed the ball to Carter, who ran out of the open space on the other side.

After Carter catches the ball, he cuts directly into the basket, exerts force with his legs, and is about to make a dunk. But when Carter just jumped up, a big hand pulled him off, and when he landed, the owner of the hand had a protective action, which didn’t hurt Carter.

Carter turned around and saw that it was Kobe who pulled him down, which made his mood very complicated.

This round is just a microcosm of the final game, both sides’ offense and defense are extremely targeted.

The Lakers continued to consume Olajuwon’s physical fitness and resolutely did not give Olajuwon the opportunity to organize inside.

Old Nelson knows that Olajuwon in the playoffs is no longer a salted fish. Where the Rockets can go, he plays a decisive role, because other Rockets players have not yet fully matured.

The Houstonians let Jackson entangle Kobe, and prevent the Lakers from playing a smooth offense, because Kobe is always in control of the Lakers’ rhythm, and O’Neal always acts as a deterrent and an end point.

Finally, Olajuwon failed to hold on to the end. Two minutes before the end of the game, he fell while fighting O’Neal for rebounds. Then he slapped the floor unwillingly with his hands. Exhausted.

Kobe saw this picture very complicated. He remembered that the Spurs played against the Heat at the critical moment in the last 13 years of the finals in G7. The team urgently needed Duncan to stand up and ease the situation on the court. Unfortunately, Duncan faced Barty who was shorter than himself. Er, because of lack of energy, failed to make a tip. Duncan, who was retiring, was annoyed by his performance and patted the floor angrily.

Oldsoldiers neverdie, theyjustfadeaway. Perhaps this is the charm of basketball competition.

Duncan immediately gestured and called a timeout. The Lakers doctor stepped forward to check and found that Olajuwon was only a little dehydrated and collapsed. Everyone was relieved~www.mtlnovel.com~ O’Neill personally took Olajuwon off the field. , There was thunderous applause. At this moment, people paid tribute to an alliance veteran who never gave up.

Lack of Olajuwon’s offensive and defensive experience, the Lakers’ offense began to become unstoppable.

Smooth, natural, tacit, and unconstrained, this is how the Lakers perform on the court.

In contrast to the Rockets, although Nash is trying his best to organize, he lacks Olajuwon’s central control. The Wind Sons, who has not yet fully matured, lacks a master level of ease.

The difference between the two sides quickly widened to more than 15 points.

With one minute left in the game, Rudy Tomjanovich replaced the main player and gave up the game.

The Rockets’ substitutes performed very well under the leadership of Pierce and Bowen. They were scored before the end of the game and chased the point difference to single digits.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Rockets 109 to 101 and defended their first home court.

Kobe made 10 of 18 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers and 5 of 5 free throws. He scored 27 points, 6 rebounds and 14 assists. He was named the best of the game. O’Neal made 11 of 22 shots, 6 of 11 free throws, 28 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks. The six Lakers scored in double figures.

For the Rockets, Olajuwon had 20 points, 12 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal. Duncan had 18 points, 15 rebounds, 4 blocks and 2 steals. The Rockets scored in double figures. Carter had 29 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists. There were 5 mistakes.

The ratings of this game are close to the last game of last year’s finals. Looking at the ratings report submitted by the secretary, David Stern felt that he was ten years younger. The league finally did not sink due to the suspension and Jordan’s retirement. NBA Came alive again.
