Chapter 230: Where is O'Neill

In the end, he didn't weigh it well, and finally chose the safest way, procrastination.

The worst outcome of this matter is nothing more than that he is forced to restrict voting in China, so the key is whether it can be delayed.

Of course, he didn't know what the situation would be in the end.

His headache will have to last at least until the All-Star break.

……

After a two-day break, the Mavericks traveled to Los Angeles for their second meeting of the season with the Lakers.

This game is also the focus of the West.

And O'Neal has returned before, and the Lakers OK combination played together.

The strength of the Lakers team is obviously not the same as the last time they met.

Their goal tonight is, of course, to defeat the Mavericks and get revenge on the last game.

On the plane to Los Angeles, the Mavericks were also very excited.

Back-to-back beats to the Nets and Pistons are one thing, and the other.

"We can finally put it to the test."

Nowitzki's words represent the mindset of many on the Mavericks.

The last time O'Neill wasn't there, even if he won, it wasn't so happy.

Sun Hao also nodded.

If the OK combination can win, even if it's just the regular season, even if it's just one game, it can say a lot.

Because of the restrictions of the new rules, it is no exaggeration to say that this year's Lakers in history is the strongest year in the three consecutive championships of the OK combination.

Challenge them, the difficulty is not ordinary.

But they also won once last year, and nothing is impossible.

After chatting, Sun Hao leaned against the window to rest, and went into the system to train.

His long-range marksman is very close to being promoted to the Hall of Fame.

When he arrived in Los Angeles, Nelson Sr. didn't schedule training.

Sun Hao went to the Staples Center to find his touch.

When he got out of the hotel, he found that Wang Zhizhi was also carrying a bag, and he asked about it.

He gave Wang Zhizhi a thumbs up.

was beaten badly in the preseason and did not take the opportunity, Wang Zhizhi has fewer opportunities to play this season than last season.

But this attitude is the same as before.

This kind of Wang Zhizhi belongs to the kind of "ready", and most of the opportunities can be seized again.

Even if you really don't have a chance with the Mavericks, you will play on a different team.

The two went to the training hall together, and after practicing for a while, Sun Hao saw an old acquaintance coming.

"Kobe."

Sun Hao and Kobe Bryant greeted each other.

This scene is familiar.

When he went to Los Angeles last season, Sun Hao was ignored by Kobe Bryant when he said hello.

But this time.

After hearing this, Kobe Bryant smiled and came over to chat with Sun Hao.

Although the two had scolded each other in front of the media before, after Adi Xing, their relationship was not the kind of "relationship between several faces" before.

Of course, they didn't talk for long, and Kobe's mentality was still the same as before, and he didn't want to be distracted before the game.

Both sides start their own training.

In addition to practicing by himself, Sun Hao also played 1 to 1 with Wang Zhizhi for a while.

He can clearly feel the progress of Wang Zhizhi's confrontation, and it seems that in the past few months, Wang Zhizhi has also been ruthless.

Bryant also had confrontation training on his side, but more with his personal trainer.

After about two hours of practice, both sides were about the same.

Sun Hao and Kobe Bryant sat together and chatted again.

Chatting and chatting, I don't know who brought it up, the two of them actually wanted to compare three points of super far.

"It's not that I said, I'm not sure I will win compared to anything else, but you can't win against me."

Sun Hao said with a smile.

There is a specialization in the art industry, and he may not be Kobe's opponent now, but he is far away from it, and he will win.

"Come on!"

Bryant stood up directly.

Sun Hao also stood up.

He suddenly remembered something.

This seems to be a "heads-up" with Kobe?

The previous hidden mission of [True and False Kobe] didn't mention that you had to play 1 against 1.

If you can win this trick, it will also be nice to get a reward.

"How about we have a hard game?"

But Kobe Bryant was obviously not stupid, and he continued after getting up.

Sun Hao motioned to him and said that no matter how he played, he was more sure than Kobe Bryant.

Bryant went on to say that his proposal was indeed difficult.

They were in midfield and then single-handedly with their left hand to complete a long-range three.

This kind of gameplay is not ordinarily difficult.

Let's not talk about how difficult it is to go far with one hand, and I still use a non-shooting hand.

"You come first."

And Kobe Bryant also asked Sun Hao to come first.

Sun Hao nodded, although it was difficult, he still wanted to challenge it.

[Kobe Bryant's turnaround and back-to-back shooting bag] is his biggest motivation.

He dribbled the ball slowly to the midfield.

In the past, others tried to enter the system a few times.

He hadn't tried this way of shooting before, and it was necessary to warm up.

None of the attempts in the system were invested, so it was really difficult to do it without taking time.

But he didn't think Kobe Bryant could do it.

Anyway, it's all about luck, and he, the European emperor, shouldn't be bad.

Coming out of the system, he also went to the midfield.

After adjustment, the left hand throws with one hand.

His strength is sufficient, but this angle is not easy to grasp.

The ball ended up bumping off the right edge of the basket.

It's still too hard.

Then it was Kobe's turn.

Kobe Bryant followed him to the midfield, but the look in his eyes made Sun Hao feel a little cheated.

Kobe Bryant, it shouldn't be a speechless way to propose to play this, and specify this way of playing.

The only possibility is that this guy must have practiced.

He also remembered that Kobe Bryant practiced with both hands.

Thinking like this, Kobe Bryant has already shot.

And at a glance at that posture, you can see that I usually practice a lot.

"Huh!"

Kobe Bryant's luck was also very good, and he scored in one shot!

“……”

Sure enough, Sun Hao was trapped.

"I won."

Kobe Bryant stretched out his hands and walked over to Sun Hao.

After walking up to Sun Hao, he sat down with a smile.

"I'm the Player of the Month."

And what he said next made Sun Hao realize that Kobe was still "fighting" with him.

That's Kobe.

The two chatted a few more words, and Kobe Bryant and the trainer were ready to go.

Wang Zhizhi also stood up.

Sun Hao motioned for them to go first, and he stayed in the stadium to practice.

Although he was cheated by Kobe, this incident also made him realize that Kobe Bryant practiced more than he imagined.

He's lost in all the areas he's good at, and that's a wake-up call.

Like the previous loss to the Celtics, he has to take it seriously.

He stayed and continued to train and was much more focused than he had before.

Three-pointers were thrown into the basket one after another, and he didn't miss a single one.

Bryant took a shower in the locker room and prepared to leave the arena with his trainer.

When passing by the training hall, he was slightly surprised to see that Sun Hao was still practicing.

He just stood outside and watched.

He didn't leave, and the trainer was watching.

Then, they watched for a long time, and Sun Hao scored for a long time without losing a single goal.

"It's kind of shit."

Kobe Bryant couldn't help but say after reading it.

The trainer nodded.

He also felt that Sun Hao's three points were too much.

That feeling...... Well, it's like it's more accurate than Kobe's mid-range shot.

He knows very well how much Kobe has practiced, and Sun Hao is probably a lot more than that.

But Kobe's training method is already the limit of what human beings can bear, and Sun Hao is really a bit, or a little unscientific.

"Monsters."

At the end, Bryant said two words and left.

He felt that he had an error in his previous understanding of Sun Hao.

However, it also made him more and more motivated.

Only such a person can cooperate with him to become an opponent.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully raising the long-range marksman to Hall of Fame level, which is currently the highest level of the badge."

Long-range marksman: Dramatically improve long-range three-point shooting consistency!

Sun Hao was focusing on training and didn't notice Kobe.

But after he finished casting, a voice in his head that surprised him.

Hall of Fame now!

It wasn't far off, but it was good news before the game.

It seems that the improvement of the proficiency of the system is also somewhat related to the concentration of training.

……

The next night, the Staples Center was packed.

The mutual rivalry between Sun Hao and Kobe Bryant in front of the media, the rivalry between the Lakers and the Mavericks, and the results of the first meeting of the season all make this game full of highlights.

On the Lakers' side, Nicholson still sat in the front row of the audience early.

On the Mavericks' side, Cuban went with the team to Dallas, wearing his trademark blue T-shirt and sitting in the back row of the Mavericks to cheer on the team.

"Dirk, we can win."

In the locker room before the game, Sun Hao took the initiative to open up to Nowitzki.

Nowitzki was stunned for a moment, they had said that Sun Hao nodded.

This time, Sun Hao took the initiative to say it.

Sun Hao's mentality looks different from before!

This must be different, with a Hall of Fame-level badge, Sun Hao also wants to try what he can do.

"A must."

Nowitzki continued.

He couldn't wait.

The players of the two teams entered the stadium one after another to warm up.

On the broadcast seat, Su Qun and Zhang Weiping were already in place early.

At the beginning, the two were talking about the recent all-star vote and Sun Hao's election as the vote king.

After the players on both sides entered, they also turned the conversation to the game.

"Coach Zhang, who do you think has a better chance of winning this game?"

"Zhang Weiping's Law" has been verified several times, and Su Qun also hopes to hear a good news from Zhang Weiping's mouth.

"It's difficult."

But it's a pity that this time Zhang Weiping's answer is not the same as before.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I've watched a lot of games for the Lakers this season, and they are the strongest this year, O'Neal is strong, Kobe Bryant is also strong, and it will be difficult for the Mavericks to win."

Zhang Weiping is conducting a reasonable analysis.

"The Mavericks have won one game before, including last season."

Su Qun reminded.

"Let's not talk about that last season, after all, there was a gap of one season, O'Neal was not there in the last game, not to mention that Kobe Bryant scored 56 points, this O'Neal is more important than that 56 points."

Zhang Weiping is a reporter based on the Lakers and is more familiar with the Lakers than any other team.

"So where do you think the Mavericks win?"

Su Qun knew that domestic fans didn't like to hear this, so he changed the topic and asked.

"If you shoot accurately, anyone can beat the Mavericks' accurate shot, our Sun Hao, Nowitzki, including Nash, Finley, Van Exel, as long as you shoot accurately, no matter what tricks you make, they will all be beaten down for you."

"They've been shooting more accurately this season."

Su Qun brought the rhythm back.

When they talked about this, the scene entered the opening ceremony.

The away team followed the home team, and by the time O'Neill came on, the atmosphere was at its highest.

Although Bryant is bent on becoming the king of Los Angeles, as long as O'Neal is there, he can only be subservient.

In this day and age, super centers have an impact on the game that no other positional player can match.

The game started immediately, and both teams started one after the other.

On the Mavericks' side, Nash, Sun Hao, Finley, Nowitzki and Lafrentz;

On the Lakers' side, Fisher, Kobe, Fox, Samaki Walker, O'Neal.

O'Neill easily brought the ball back to half-court to kick off the game.

The Lakers came up to play O'Neal as soon as possible.

O'Neal has had toe surgery and missed due to injury this season, which has caused him to gain a lot of weight.

It slowed him down a bit, but he improved his overall fight a lot, and he liked to play with his body a little more.

After receiving the ball, he directly chiseled Lafrenz.

Lafrenz took a hard beat, and found that he was too young, and he lost his center of gravity and felt a pain in his chest.

"Bang!"

O'Neal turned around and slammed his hands down.

This opening set the momentum of the Staples Center on fire.

The Mavericks attacked, LaFernz pulled to the top of the arc, and O'Neal shrank inside and didn't get out.

The Mavericks passed the ball to LaFrentz, who made a three-point shot.

"Huh!"

Although he was hit by O'Neal, Lafrentz had a good opening hand.

Looking back, O'Neal continued to play to the basket.

This time, Lafrentz used all the power of milk, but he still couldn't resist it.

O'Neill used to be a rhinoceros, but now he is an elephant, his strength has not decreased, and his weight has increased.

He had only the option of fouling.

O'Neal is sent to the free-throw line.

He made both free throws in a safe way.

Lafrentz defends the defensive rebound.

The Mavericks played defensive counterattacks, and the Lakers quickly retreated and didn't give a chance.

And although O'Neill is reluctant to go out in positional warfare, he is not slow to retreat.

The Mavericks then moved into the field, and Lafrenz was then cleared, and he took the ball and shot again, this time missed.

Waiting for the Lakers to come over, O'Neal received the ball inside and then hit Lafrenz with force, and it was another two-handed heavy dunk.

The Staples Center has been set on fire.

Sun Hao was also a little helpless when he watched it from the outside.

O'Neal's agility has decreased since he gained weight, but he has become more and more violent on the offensive end.

And he realized that it was still a bit too idealistic to use Oku's idea of beating Yao Ming before.

O'Neal's influence on the game is much greater than Yao Ming's.

Just like the previous discussion about whether O'Neal can end the small-ball era, many people will use the shooting percentage to convert the score.

That's visible, and there's a lot more that can't be seen.

For example, the psychological pressure of the defensive players, such as the problem of fouls.

People are not machines, you are blown up on the defensive end, it is impossible for your mentality not to be affected, and if there are many fouls, the defensive action will definitely not dare to be bigger.

As for simply not being prepared?

That's even more unrealistic, when you defend the basket shooting rate is 60%, if you don't defend it, that's 100%.
