Chapter 404: O'Neill's Outburst, Another City

"Wait? You say I was dunked by Kobe? O'Neill had just recovered from the joy of the victory when he was taken aback by the post-match reporters.

"That's right, Shaq, the picture of you being blocked by Kobe Bryant is probably going to be selected for the annual picture of this year's playoffs! This goal cannot be avoided in the promotional video of the later series. ”

"Me! I! That's me and Kobe Bryant working together to win the game! That's me helping Kobe get stuck with Kemp and jamming Jim McIlvain! Can Kobe Bryant grab a rebound without me? O'Neill's face showed a burst of panic and began to talk serious nonsense.

"So that's it, Ashak! That's great, you'll be happy to see it in the newspapers and on TV afterwards! It's a fond memory of you and Kobe. ”

"Yes ... Yes... I will definitely be happy. O'Neill's features shrunk into a ball, as if he had eaten a sour lemon.

Kobe Bryant was smiling as his face distorted as he distorted the supersonic glove Payton.

"Gary, why don't you get a good position! How can you put Kobe Bryant in? Kemp was upset and questioned Payton directly in the locker room. This ball is clearly Payton's problem.

"Damn, how did I know Kobe Bryant was going to grab an offensive rebound! You look at his offensive rebounds per game? Is there one? "Payton's face is full of upset, no one would have thought that Kobe Bryant would not wait for an opportunity to shoot from the outside, but go into the restricted area to grab a rebound!?

That thin body is not afraid of being elbowed and his leg broken?

Kemp was indignant, and at this time Peyton still didn't admit his mistake? Isn't it a basic defensive principle to jam your opposing player when defending and ask him not to rush to the board?

I fanned O'Neal's last chance to make a move! That bounce was probably the highest he'd ever jumped this year! And everything was ruined by Peyton's negligence, if it weren't for Payton not jamming Kobe, then he would be a supersonic hero now! And now no one will remember his caps and will only laugh at them.

Peyton and Kemp parted, while George Carr had a wry smile.

Payton and Kemp are not traditionally good players, and their excellent chemistry is due to their ability to win games all the time, and they have also experienced a lot of seasons. But since the brutal slaughter by the Bulls in the Finals last year, Payton and Kemp have always been a little unhappy in their hearts, and Payton can't get used to Kemp working all day for a big contract. Kemp, on the other hand, is tired of seeing Payton dominate so many balls alone.

This contradiction may not completely erupt now, and the two people still know that if they want to win the series, they are the most reliable partners for each other, but if they continue to lose, continue to lose in such drama, then the problem is really big...

Especially whether Camp will be able to get a contract that he is satisfied with this summer and stay in the supersonic is also a very big question.

George Karl could only sigh helplessly, turning his head to study the loss of this game.

...

The headlines of the second day, of course, were the image of Kobe Bryant riding on O'Neal's back, his left hand down, his right hand held high, and pouring the ball into the basket.

It's a classic! A picture showed O'Neal's bewildered expression, Kobe's cold expression, Payton's wide-eyed looking expression, and Kemp had just fallen from the sky, and there was a smile on his face after successfully interfering with the ball.

The whistle is on! Kobe Bryant's 0.1 second later goal is an overtime!

Classic moments!

This ball has become two must-use materials for this year's MLS basketball as a promotional campaign for the next series, along with Kevin Johnson's defeat of Barkley.

On May 7, after a full day of rest, the Lakers and Jazz welcomed G2.

The situation in the second game was very different from the first.

O'Neal ushered in the first big explosion of the playoffs!

As if to wash away the psychological scars left by Kobe Bryant's dunk, O'Neal in this game showed 120% of his energy, and under Kobe's needle lead, he repeatedly dunked in the supersonic penalty area.

At the same time, the number and efficiency of low-post singles camp camp increased significantly compared to the first game, hitting 7 of 9 in the half, scoring a double-double of 18 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists.

Camp was stunned by O'Neill in this game, O'Neal's strength was actually greater than the last one? Kemp was squeezed away in succession, and 80% of the collisions between the two men resulted in Kemp being crushed.

O'Neal finally played the dominance of the interior of the all-time superstar, and Kobe Bryant was more than willing to feed him the ball in this situation. Kobe Bryant wants to win! And he also knows very well that O'Neal is very uncalm inside, in order to appease this boyish fat boy, Kobe Bryant had 8 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and 1 block in the half of the game, almost filling the scoreboard.

The superSonics offense was also suppressed in this game, and when O'Neal frantically dominated the box, crushed Kemp, and put the rebound in his arms, the superSonics players were a little timid. They worry that their shots will turn into quick counter-attacks on the Lakers' side. And hesitation is a big no-no for pitchers, who don't have as good a shooting touch as they did in the first game.

Fortunately, Sam Perkins on the supersonic bench came up and hit Horry a few times in a row, and the key gentleman who once killed Jordan became a lifesaver on the supersonic bench.

In the third quarter, O'Neal grabbed seven rebounds in a single quarter, four of which were offensive rebounds. And after grabbing the offensive rebound, it was a violent dunk that pulled out the world, and such a simple and rough style of play made George Karl on the sidelines grit his teeth.

How can this be prevented!?

What kind of tactics is this!?

Two people pull, both can get the ball into the basket and play 2+0. The only thing George Karl can do is keep pouring chicken soup into the supersonic interior line that is on the verge of a mental breakdown.

And Payton was still suppressed by Kobe Bryant in this game, although it was warmer than the first game, but still did not make any sound.

Kobe Bryant knows that this kind of suppression of Payton is getting more and more comfortable, he can't suppress Payton in a series, maybe Payton will find a way in the next game.

But this game, the Lakers still won easily.

SuperSonics 86: 103 Lakers.

O'Neal had 41 points, 23 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks, 1 steal and 2 turnovers in the game, and shot 74% of the shooting rate to such an amazing statistic, and the dominance of the super interior line was demonstrated.

O'Neal exerted his strength, and Kobe Bryant played with ease. He had 18 points, 5 rebounds, 13 assists, 3 steals and 3 turnovers. Paddle is a lot of fun.

Payton had 13 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals.

Kemp had 12 points and five rebounds.

Schramf and Hawkins scored 18 and 16 points, respectively.

Sam Perkins came off the bench to finish with 15 points and six rebounds.
