"Guys! Just hit it like that! In the second half, crush Utah! O'Neill was very excited at half-time, and the big slap continued to slap the thigh on the side, making a snapping sound.

And Campbell, who was sitting on O'Neal's side, had a sad face, and the Lakers players played very well in this game, except for him. His starting spot was taken by Big Ben, who also shared the playing time of the center on the bench with Matt Geiger.

"Shaq, stop shooting! Eldon's face is purple! Scott quickly persuaded the excited O'Neal, who was a little worried that O'Neal would break Campbell's thigh bone alive.

"Keep the rhythm and keep playing like this!" Harris also affirmed that the Lakers players were full of confidence on their faces, and although the score did not stretch, the situation on the court and the beginning of the first quarter had been completely reversed.

At the beginning of the game, it was Kobe Bryant's superstar performance against the Jazz's overall blocking and pick-and-roll system, but now it is Karl Malone's offensive system against the Lakers.

Superstars have this kind of internal power to control the game for a short period of time, but this form can't last the whole game. Even for players of the level of Kobe and Jordan, although Karl Malone is strong and undoubtedly the league's No. 1 center in this era, his scoring consistency cannot be compared to that of outside players.

In the Jazz locker room, Karl Malone's jersey was soaked with sweat.

Malone took off his jersey, revealing his toned pectoral muscles and reinforced concrete abs.

"Brian, get me another jersey." The locker room has prepared a lot of jerseys to avoid the need to replace the jersey from being torn. It goes without saying that Malone named Brian Russell, and he was very unhappy with Russell's defense in the first half!

I fought hard, shot inside and outside, and carried the team away. You're making it so easy for the Lakers' perimeter players to score.

Although Malone is childish and not a qualified leader, he understands that at this time, the game is not over yet, and Russell cannot be blamed directly, which will affect his performance in the future. But it's still necessary to do something like this.

Brian Russell, also drenched in sweat, took out two jerseys from the cupboard, threw one to Malone, and put one on himself.

Anti-Kobe, who knows who defends!

This is Russell's current thinking, if he was still trying to cut off the Lakers' internal and external ties in the first quarter, he had put all his energy on Kobe Bryant in the second quarter, but there was still no way to stop Kobe from scoring.

I'm so hard!

I'm a small forward, why should I play against Kobe.

Isn't that Stockton's mission?

Russell was just dissatisfied, but he really didn't dare to say it. Stockton, the white-skinned demon, has a hundred ways to keep him from mixing in the team.

"In the second half, it was steady. Carl, you're going to save your strength for the fourth quarter, and I want you to keep your fitness up. ”

"I'm so fit!" Karl Malone let out a low roar, but his panting breath showed that he wasn't as relaxed as he said he was.

"John, pay attention to the ball. I want to attack as a whole, keep the rhythm down, and play with a success rate. ”

"Understood, Coach."

"There's a reason why the Lakers are at the top of the league, but that's not why we're losing at home! I need you to cheer up! Enthusiasm! Handle every ball with care! Jerry Sloan said chicken soup for a long time, allowing the Jazz players to recover a little from the pressure on the court.

Then the game went into the second half!

"Dantley! How do you see the current situation? ”

"Not optimistic. The Jazz scene was very unoptimistic, and Karl Malone overdrew his physical strength prematurely. The same goes for Kobe Bryant. But one thing needs to be clarified, the Lakers have twin engines. Even if Kobe Bryant is physically exhausted, there is Shaq O'Neal! As long as Shaq wants to score, he can score in the bag! This is the privilege of a superstar, to ignore all defensive set-ups for a short period of time! ”

"I think you're underestimating Karl, who has scored 61 points, and his consistent scoring is no worse than Kobe, or even better than Shaq. I think the Lakers have always used Horry at the cost of being able to gain a score advantage, but when Horry was beaten off by Malone and left the game with 6 fouls, that was the real test for the Lakers. ”

"MAGIC, your opinion is very reasonable, Horry has already committed 3 fouls, Carl will definitely pick him up! How long he can hold out is a question. And Carl's physical fitness is definitely a monster level on the inside, maybe he will play a supernatural performance in this game and directly end the Lakers. ”

"We'll see! Sit back and watch the situation unfold! ”

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Lakers directly put out an offensive lineup - Kobe, Curry Sr., Jones, Horry, O'Neal five-person group.

The Jazz kept their starting lineup unchanged.

The offensive focus of both sides has been slightly adjusted.

The Lakers began to feed O'Neal more, and O'Neal began to sit in the low post and then entered the IN-OUT system!

The Jazz's defense was originally the main target of O'Neal, but O'Neal sat on the inside, and the four top shooters on the outside stood up. Who would dare to give up their defenders to flank O'Neal?

Yangmou!

"Maybe there's really hope of competing for the championship this year?" The magician looked at the struggling Jazz and couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.

The Jazz players are really a bit confused right now.

Sloan's arrangement was to pinch O'Neal, but the Lakers put on an IN-OUT posture, and the outside four stopped running, just stood on the spot and waited for the ball. O'Neill is also always ready to pass the ball out, in such a situation. No player dared to cross the thunder pool to flank O'Neal.

This is the reason why the OK group was able to win 3 championships in the previous life, and this is the reason why the Lakers were able to build the OK dynasty!

Kobe Bryant and O'Neal, two inexplicable superstars, how many teams in history can be pressed to death at the same time?

They also have a number of top shooters around them, and this offensive system is close to the ceiling of basketball! Even if it's SHOWTIME, even if it's 73 wins over the Warriors, even if it's 72 wins over the Bulls. But when it comes to offense, the Lakers are not weaker than any team!

This is a team with no holes and no flaws in attack!

The space system built on O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, two unsolvable heads-up players, at least the current Jazz have nothing to do with them!

"I can only attack." Stockton pursed his lips and still stuffed the ball to Malone.

Will Carl Malone's lonely heroic drama come true?

When Horry committed 5 fouls, Malone exaggerated the side-stretching chest action in a bodybuilding competition, and the exaggerated chest muscles made the fans in the Energy Arena cheer!

Hit the field! Knock down Horry, the almighty-stirring stick! The Lakers' offensive space is to be weakened by more than one level!

And on the Lakers bench, a bald and fierce god, the bloodthirsty red light in his eyes has not been disguised.

"Come on, Big Ben. You replace Robert. ”
