January 15, 1996, Great Western Forum Arena, Los Angeles.

The Utah Jazz are visiting Los Angeles to try to break the Lakers' winning streak!

This back-to-back home and away game is now recognized as the second scariest schedule in the NBA.

Second only to back-to-back!

Much more difficult than the average back-to-back race.

The average home team is back-to-back, with both games being home and no distance traveled.

The average away game is back-to-back, and although the two games are away, the distance between the two away games is generally not that long.

And the Jazz and Lakers are back-to-back home and away, and Salt Lake City is more than 1,000 kilometers away from Los Angeles.

This distance, playing back-to-back, can be called the devil!

Many teams have now begun to call on the league to cancel such inhumane back-to-backs or long-distance home-and-back games.

Playing a game like this is a test of the Jazz's physical strength, and the same is true for the Lakers.

Therefore, no one can guarantee what the quality of this game will look like.

Both teams were too lucky.

Even Lakers fans, they don't ask for much, they don't ask the team to be able to play the previous 'L-time'.

As long as you can win, continue your winning streak.

L-time, like sho-time in the Magic era, is a good name for the Lakers' beautiful basketball by the league and fans.

L is the abbreviation of Lin Han's surname and the abbreviation of the Lakers, which can be regarded as 'Lin Han time' or 'Laker time'.

Generally speaking, it's 'Lin Han time'.

Watching the Lakers' games this season is to watch Lin Han.

In this game, the Lakers fans who came to the scene no longer asked for any Lin Han time, only for the victory of this game.

However, what surprised the Lakers fans in the stadium and the fans who followed the regular season game in the history books in front of the TV set was.

The physical condition shown by both teams in this game was surprisingly good!

The Lakers must win this game, and the Jazz definitely don't want to lose.

The mental power of the two teams is highly concentrated.

In addition, the main players of the two teams, Lin Han, Malone and Stockton are all the kind of physical weirdos.

It can be said that this game is more exciting than anyone can imagine!

"It's a game of finals intensity!"

"Both teams put everything on this game!"

"The Jazz are like Jerry Sloan said, they came out of defeat very quickly!"

"The Lakers' interior is also more prepared than in the last game!"

This season's NBA has been a two-man rotation between the Lakers and the Bulls since the beginning of the season.

The other teams are all supporting roles.

It's not even a supporting role, it's just a trick!

Now, there is a team in the league that can reach almost the same level as the Lakers and Bulls!

And this team is not the Rockets and Magic that everyone predicted before the start of the season!

The Rockets have struggled a bit this season.

After getting Barkley, the Rockets' roster is very uneven.

In the face of Lin Han, Barkley can neither be used as an assistant defense inside line nor as an assistant defense outside line, and his position in the Rockets is extremely embarrassing.

Recently, there have been rumors that the Rockets may trade Barkley in the near future for an all-around forward or a strong interior player who is more defensive.

As for the Magic, the Magic also struggled a bit after a three-game losing streak on their trip to the West over Christmas.

The two teams that were thought to be the biggest threat to the Lakers and Bulls all looked to have capsized.

On the contrary, it is two second-tier strong teams that resist Lin Han and Jordan, and the SuperSonics and Jazz are now a little unbelievable.

The SuperSonics took out the Bulls in their last game.

Gave the Bulls their second loss of the season.

And the Jazz actually played with the Lakers to such an extent twice in a row!

"Will Ma Long, who has learned to use strength in the offense, be so strong?"

The Lakers and Jazz game is the focus of the world's attention.

In Seattle, the SuperSonics, who also ended their back-to-back races, are now all on their radar.

"Sean, can you stop him?"

"Can't"

Sean Kemp didn't hesitate.

Peyton wasn't much surprised to hear Kemp say that.

Sean Kemp's spring-like physicality and excellent strength can be said to be a nemesis in the face of centers like Olajuwon and David Robinson.

But against a barbarian center like O'Neal, it will suffer a little bit.

Malone has also been miserable in the face of Camp in the past two seasons, but that is Malone who will not use his strength!

"Malone is now harder to defend against than Shak"

George Carr added.

An interior line second only to O'Neal on the offensive end also has mid-range shooting ability comparable to the top outside line, as well as the athleticism of a small forward above the level, and a good passing hand in his hand.

Such an inside line.

It's already a perfect offensive interior line.

Even Lin Han......

He also watched the last game between the Jazz and the Lakers, and Lin Han's defense can be called the first in NBA history.

In the end, the defense Ma Long broke Ma Long two goals in a row to complete the stunner.

However, with Lin Han's terrifying defensive ability, he used a relatively clever battle of wits and courage to defend!

If Ma Long wasn't too careless and wanted to defeat Lin Han too much, it would be impossible for Lin Han to defend him so easily.

"Malone is the third active player after Lin Han and Jordan who can't defend"

This is the evaluation of Malone after the United States Today surpassed O'Neill in the potential list and mentioned the third.

"As long as Malone continues to build strength, his feel remains the same or he gets stronger, and his athleticism is still above the level, when his strength reaches the current O'Neal level, he will become another five-star player."

This is America's vision for his future today.

Five-star ball king strength!

Very high outlook!

If it weren't for his age, USA Today's evaluation of his potential would be five stars, and to be able to become a five-star player, the potential is certainly five stars.

It's just because of his age that he can continue to build strength and maintain athletic ability, and there are doubts about America Today.

That's why he lowered his potential to four stars.

Just look at this game.

Ma Long's physical endurance is much stronger than that of Olajuwon, who are almost the same age superstars!

"It seems that in the next few years, our biggest rival in the West, besides the Lakers, is the Jazz!"

George Carr thought silently in his heart.

As for the rocket......

If the Rockets keep the twin towers of Olajuwon and Barkley, it won't be easy for the SuperSonics to beat the Rockets.

But if the Rockets trade Barkley, he is 100% confident that he can easily defeat the Rockets with supersonic speed!

Now, judging by some news coming out of Houston, the Rockets management is also hesitant.

Keeping Barkley, Barkley won't be that useful to the Lakers.

But with Barkley traded, the Rockets are 100% sure they can meet the Lakers at the end.

"The Lakers are more difficult to play against than the Bulls!"

The Jazz are strong now, but the Lakers, who can still suppress the Jazz, are naturally stronger!

"The Bulls' interior is balanced offensively and defensively, but it's not up to our interior"

Because the SuperSonics' interior line, in addition to Kemp, Schramf and Sam Perkins are all able to pull out and shoot.

Except for Mourning, the Bulls' interior line is either too old or too slow, and it is not up to hypersonics at all.

That's where the Bulls lost their last game.

Mourning was blocked, the No. 4 position was blown up again, and Jordan's state generally didn't blow Payton out.

In short, for the supersound, the Bulls' balanced interior line is really not that terrible.

On the contrary, it is the Lakers' all-defensive interior line that is terrifying.

The Lakers are now the strongest team in the league, and all the other teams are figuring out how to deal with Lin Han and the Lakers.

After the panic at the beginning of the season, other teams have more ambitions when facing Jordan or Lin Han.

"Gary, next time you play against the Lakers, I will also let you try to defend Lin Han alone!"

In these two games, the biggest gain for the SuperSonics is that Jerry Sloan used Stockton's creative invention of defending Lin Han!

Before Jerry Sloan, no one dared to defend Lin Han alone after watching last year's NBA Finals.

Therefore, these teams that attacked Lin Han were all blown up by Lin Han's Lakers!

"Coach, do you think that Lin Han's outside three-point pullout has nothing to do with defense?"

"Not only has nothing to do with defense, but also has nothing to do with Lin Han's feel, this morning I have seen Lin Han's technical statistics for every game this season, his three-point shooting rate in each game is around 5 percent, I don't believe that Lin Han's hand feels when there is no fluctuation, since the hand feels fluctuating, Lin Han's three-point shooting rate is still so stable, it can only be that his three-point shooting rate has nothing to do with his feel"

"Offensive ...... that has nothing to do with defense and has nothing to do with feel"

Gary Payton muttered to himself.

"It's terrible, it's desperate, you can't do anything about his offense, but this is also our chance, which shows that his three-point lack of enough explosiveness, as long as Gary can not give Lin Han a chance to vacate like Stockton, even if none of us has such a strong single ability as Malone, we can try to beat the Lakers with a more team offense!"

Beat the Lakers?

Will you beat the Lakers this season?

Gary Payton looked at the Lakers No. 24 player on the TV who raised his hands high to the cheers of the fans, and was a little excited.

Before he and Sean's strength has completed their transformation, will they defeat Lin Han?!

It's very tempting!

However, if he wants to defeat Lin Han, the premise is that he can not give Lin Han any vacant position like Stockton!

He's confident his defense is better than Stockton's.

But can he be like Stockton, wrapped around Lin Han's body like a glove?

With his knowledge of the league's current perimeter defenders, the players who can do this don't have a single hand!

"Congratulations to the Lakers, congratulations to Lin Han, after this game, the Lakers will become the only team in NBA history to win 38 in a row, and the 38 consecutive wins will also become the longest winning streak in NBA regular season history!"

At the end of the game, Larry Bird and Kevin Longgoley stood up to applaud the Lakers, just like the rest of the Lakers fans.

116-108, this game the Lakers won more easily than the previous one.

Led almost the whole way.

This is because Malone is facing the Lakers inside, and his efficiency is declining.

Even so, Malone's efficiency still allowed him to bite the Lakers tightly with the Jazz.

Just like in the last game, Lin Han led the team to bite the Jazz!

"Damn!"

Lost again!

For two consecutive games to Lin Han, Ma Long is really unwilling!

How much did he pay for these two games?!

He knew that his efforts were worth it.

His strength doesn't lie, and his strength will still be available in the future!

But he didn't want to wait any longer!

He wanted to defeat Lin Han now!

However, he could only watch the game end, and Lakers owner Jerry Buss put a hat with the number 38 printed on the front on Lin Han's head.

"Carl, let's go"

"Next time, I must defeat him!"

Strength, he still needs strength!

He also needs strength, he needs the kind of power that can crush Lin Han, crush the Lakers, and crush everything!

Originally, after Lin Han took over the celebration hat from Jerebuss, he wanted to go to the Jazz to 'catch up' with Malone.

But as soon as he was about to go, Malone ran away with Jazz.

That's an escape, right?

"Boss, we've done a miracle!"

Miracle?

Thirty-eight consecutive wins are indeed a miracle, and it is indeed much more difficult than expected.

"When the Lakers won 36 in a row, I don't know if they thought that these two wins would be so difficult"

"In the NBA, no win is easy to get, the Lakers set an NBA record, and now they are the only ones left in front of them!"

has accompanied the Lakers all the way this season, from the invincibility at the beginning of the season to the thorns that have appeared now.

As the difficulty of the Lakers to win increases, the NBA is also growing with the strength of Lin Han and the Lakers.

In two consecutive games, Malone lost 70+ and 00+ in one game.

Such a loss is like a loss in the Finals where Jordan made more than 100 mistakes.

He was envious of such a loss.

Envy Jordan can lose against the best player in history and find a direction where he can move forward.

Envy Malone can lose against the strongest team in history and get the motivation to continue to get stronger.

The appearance of him and the Magic brought the NBA into a new era.

The emergence of Jordan has brought this new era to its peak.

And Lin Han's descent from the sky has even begun to bring this so-called new era into another era!

The NBA is alive right now!

Everyone is pursuing the belief of progress!

"Kevin, I now find out how great Lin Han's behavior of pulling hatred everywhere after entering the alliance is, hatred can change everything!"

Can hatred change everything?

Kevin Longgoley looked at the Lakers No. 24 on the court, was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

When Lin Han heard Larry say this, he would definitely be very proud and say: Hate me, the whole world will hate me!"

Kevin Longgoley's funny parody is very similar, and the demeanor and tone are very similar, which is hilarious.

Larry Bird had an ugly smile on his face.

Get the hatred of the whole world and then conquer the whole world?

It's really a big, incredible blueprint.

Previously, he didn't believe anyone could do it.

Nor do I believe that anyone would dare to do this.

But Lin Han.

He's been around since his rookie season!

His greatness cannot be counted in terms of honor!
