"Win! We made history! ”

On April 19, 1998, the Lakers players cheered!

In the midst of the Lakers players' giggles, Bryant and O'Neal threw their head coach Harris high into the air.

March belongs to the Lakers, March belongs to the Jazz, then the whole April is the carnival of the world!

The first thing every fan does when they wake up is to open the newspaper and check the number of games the Lakers have won!

And when the Lakers defeated the Jazz and won 64-6, their season ending schedule was smooth!

Almost with a full complement to his full body, Harris arranged a rotation and harvested April. In the last 12 games, they won 9 of them!

These 9 victories, as well as Harris's desire to adjust his form, so that the main team's playing time is greatly reduced! If they go all out, the Lakers even have a very good chance of winning 75 wins this season!

But 73 wins is great enough!

History!

New Legends!

At the Great Western Forum Arena, witnessed by countless media, the Lakers defeated the Mavericks, and as the final game of the regular season this season, the Lakers' game attracted far more attention than any team.

Streamers fall from the top of the Forum Arena and the big screen unfolds the season's incredible moments.

Kobe Bryant single-handedly pointed to the sky, a shot of the night of 81 minutes.

O'Neal crushes the other four centers and ascends to the top of the king of kings.

Kobe Bryant's three-point shot!

Bryant doesn't watch the ball to celebrate, Jordan and Pippen as the background of the picture.

Kobe's five pairs!

The team has won 34 consecutive victories!

The highest half-time scoring record in history!

.......

One game at a time, the Lakers have won 73 victories in the world's highest temple of professional basketball!

Unprecedented!

Full of honor! This year's regular season belongs to the Lakers!

I'm coming! I see! I conquer!

This sentence of Julius Caesar perfectly interprets the Lakers this season! Kobe Bryant this season!

"Congratulations, Del. The Lakers have had a great season with 73 wins, and the league is great because of them. ”

At the press conference after the game, Don Nelson smiled and praised the Lakers. The legendary coach Mad Scientist, who won the best coach three times, is envious in his heart.

What coach wouldn't want to coach a Lakers like that?

"Thank you, Don." Silver Fox Harris wiped his eyes, and his mood at this time was very uneasy, not to mention the Lakers players present.

More than once, O'Neill played tricks in front of the camera.

Xiaoyu and Bowen teamed up to sing RAP.

Jones, Horry, Mullin, Campbell, Curry, Stephen and so on and so forth...

Kobe Bryant wore a baseball cap and a Lakers jacket. Smiling, quietly looking at the Lakers family at this moment.

He wanted to keep this scene in his mind.

Together, they created a legend. This legend, when Kobe Bryant was 80 years old and in a wheelchair, Kobe Bryant would tell their story to future generations.

...

"Guys, the regular season is over and we're the biggest winners."

In the locker room, Harris announced his pre-season mobilization.

"But the playoffs have just begun, and a new journey is coming!"

"Never underestimate your opponents! There are countless examples of the playoffs where the weak beat the strong! ”

"Last year, we lost to the Bulls, and this year! We will conquer everything! Win the O'Brien Cup! ”

The dust has settled on the regular season, and if they can't win the championship, then the Lakers will be the laughing stock of 73 wins without a championship.

After celebrating, cheering, it's time to start preparing for the playoffs in earnest.

How difficult it is to win the playoffs this year! It can be called the most terrifying in history!

Whether it is in the west or in the east, there are more than 2 historical-level strong teams, as well as a number of championship-level teams. It is not surprising that any of these teams won the championship, there are countless examples of weak defeating strong on the court, and it is not that the Lakers won 73 wins and it is stable!

Kobe Bryant still remembers the Warriors of later generations, who also won 73 wins, but in the end they lost.

Maybe it's because of injuries, maybe it's because of blows, maybe it's because of form, there are too many factors that can affect the win or loss of a series.

The Lakers' opponent is the Bulls, the king of basketball! The Utah Jazz with MVP power forward in the Galaxy Battleship! The new bad boy army magic of the strongest twins of the younger generation! And the Rockets, who have hidden strength and are ready to compete for the last championship of their careers in the playoffs!

None of these teams are easy to deal with! Any team can win the championship in any era!

Kobe Bryant never dared to despise his opponents!

The greatest respect for your opponent is to give it your all!

...

"The playoff fixtures are out!"

The Lakers are 73-9 in the West

Second, the Utah Jazz are 68-14

Third, the Seattle SuperSonics are 62-20

Fourth, the San Antonio Spurs are 57-25

Fifth, the Phoenix Suns are 56-26

Sixth, the Minnesota Timberwolves are 47-35

Seventh, the Portland Trail Blazers are 46-36

Eighth, the Houston Rockets are 41-41

Lakers first round! Face the Houston Rockets playing dead!

The three masters of the rocket can be described as a model of pretending to be dead. The team just finished eighth and didn't fall out of the playoffs.

"The Lakers are going to be blackened!" Rockets legend Ralph Sampson blatant in the media!

"73 wins, if you are blackballed, what will happen?"

"If there is a team with 5-8 places that can beat the Lakers, it is only the Rockets!"

"Houston, who have taken a full season of recuperation, will have their explosion in the playoffs!"

If the Lakers were to pick an opponent from the 5-8 spots, Harris would definitely not choose Houston.

This group of veterans didn't look at playing dead in the regular season, only playing 41 wins, and they didn't even make it to the All-Star. In the playoffs, they can definitely play at a superstar level!

Or that they pretended to be dead in the regular season to save their strength, just to play superstar level in the playoffs!

The Utah Jazz vs. the Portland Trail Blazers, there is not much suspense in this round of the series. MVP-level Malone is not something that the current Roaring Tianzun can handle.

This series between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Timberwolves is a bit interesting.

If Garnett blows Wenbeck out and completely kills both offensive and defensive ends, will a single Payton be able to withstand Marbury and Tom Gogliotta's heavy artillery?

If Kemp is here, Marbury and Tom Gugliotta really don't play too well, but the current supersonic defense is not the same as last year!

The Spurs and Suns have to play each other, and it is a confrontation of two very different styles.

It can also be said to be the confrontation of two eras.

The Spurs follow a twin-tower, slow-paced, positional battle.

The Suns are playing more points to bloom, three points, run and boom!

These two teams restrained each other, but the Spurs, with two superstars, were certainly more dominant in crunch time.
