Chapter 150: Against the Lakers (Dragon League Title 8)
O'Neal's free throw eruption, of course, is not very likely, but if it really happens, O'Neal is completely inexplicable!
Whoever touches dies, and whoever touches is unlucky......
This kind of unlikely thing, Richard naturally won't think about it.
Because it's useless for you to think about it, if you really encounter a small probability of O'Neal's free throws exploding, the probability of the Trail Blazers winning is extremely small.
But if you can't touch it, the shark cutting tactic must be used.
……
In the afternoon of the next day, there was still a long time before the start of the evening game.
The players were training and Richard showed up at the training ground, clapping his hands for the players to come together.
"Guys, we're going to use the No. 1 starting lineup for tonight's game, Big Ben and O'Neal Jr., and Rashid, you stay and the others continue to train......
O'Neal Jr. was overjoyed, and Richard had used the No. 2 starting lineup more frequently recently, which made O'Neal Jr. a little flustered......
With the No. 2 starting lineup, O'Neal Jr. will not have a chance to start, and his playing time will be reduced from nearly 30 minutes to 20 minutes.
As a newcomer, he naturally wanted to stay on the pitch more.
……
But after the joy, thinking of tonight's opponent, little O'Neill couldn't help but look bitter......
If he really plays the No. 1 starting lineup, then O'Neal Jr.'s position will be extremely embarrassing, because he will directly face the most ferocious BUG interior in NBA history!
O'neill......
O'Neill Jr. vs. O'Neal, many fans of good deeds have actually been waiting for this game to start for a long time!
Because they really want to see little O'Neill being abused by the real O'Neal.
This kind of scene is interesting to think about, the real and false O'Neill duel......
……
Little O'Neal felt numb when he thought about this kind of scene, even if he himself, he was also not optimistic about his duel with the shark......
At least there is an eighty percent chance that he was hit by a shark.
The remaining two percent are likely to be beaten by sharks and covered in bags......
"Jermaine, relax!"
"Man, why do I feel like you're so nervous? It's like you're about to be thrown into a beast cage. ”
Richard couldn't help but smile when he saw the unnatural expression on O'Neill's face.
"I must be worried about O'Neill, hehe, I'm still young after all!"
"Boy, look at me and Ben, can you find a hint of nervousness on your face?" Rashid put his arm directly on little O'Neill's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Jermaine, don't worry!"
"Since the coach has left the three of us behind, he must give a solution to O'Neal!"
Big Ben said very relaxedly.
"That's right, Jermaine, can he still eat you!"
"He's just nicknamed Shark, not a real shark!"
Richard also laughed and joked about little O'Neal......
Young O'Neill, a little embarrassed, scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, I need the three of you to cooperate as best as you can in this game, only if the three of you show your best defensive state, we can limit Shaq!"
After joking about O'Neal Jr., Richard turned on a straight face and began to arrange the inside arrangements for tonight's game!
The Lakers' outside line is nothing to fear.
The Lakers backcourt duo is Eddie Jones and Nick Van Exel.
To say that they are not to be feared, it is not that they are not good, after all, both of them have been selected as All-Stars in their careers.
Now both men are in their more immature moments, with Eddie Jones being a third-year student and Van Exel being a year older than Jones.
Eddie Jones averaged 13+3+3 per game last season, and his shooting rate was quite good......
And the defensive end is also very tough!
It is not difficult to explain why Kobe Bryant has always been on the bench, because Eddie Jones is really good, playing 13+3+3 in the second year, and his offensive performance is quite efficient, and he is already an extremely strong newcomer.
Kobe Bryant didn't play a game, Jones proved himself, and even if the Lakers management liked Kobe Bryant, it was impossible for Kobe to start.
And this season, Jones's performance has improved again, and after playing more than 20 games in the past, he can average 17 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists per game!
But this season's Jones style has changed slightly from last season!
With O'Neal's arrival, Jones doesn't need to use breakouts as his primary scoring tool as he did last season, and his main offensive means this season is projection......
That's why his shooting percentage dropped from nearly 50% to 43.8, which is an extremely obvious drop in shooting percentage, and the reason is simple, that is, the shooting percentage is definitely not as high as scoring points under the basket......
But Jones' overall scoring efficiency hasn't dropped much, as his three-point shooting has improved this season, from 3 to 6 to nearly 40 percent!
Against this kind of player whose main offensive means is projection, Robinson, who is big and has good maneuvers, can definitely play a pretty good role!
Even if Jones focuses on breaking through in this game, Richard is not worried, because the Trail Blazers' defensive focus in this game must be on the inside.
As for the other backfielder, Van Exel, nicknamed Van Crazy.
Jet Terry is a representative of the convulsive player, but Fan Maniac can be said to be a strengthened version of Terry, and the convulsions are basically inexplicable.
Such a player is not to be afraid, because it is useless for you to be afraid, and the devil knows if he will have a convulsion on the field!
Maybe while you're waiting for him, he's hit all sorts of crazy shots......
Or maybe you ignore him when he strikes all kinds of iron.
……
Lakers small forward player, Jeromy Colsey!
This is a veteran of the Trail Blazers, who just joined the Lakers this season, and Colsi was still playing for the Trail Blazers in the year Richard crossed over.
At his peak, he was good, but at the age of almost 35, he averaged less than seven points per game for the Lakers, so he was really no threat......
This is a shortcoming of the Lakers' starting lineup, and after playing this season, the Lakers immediately replaced Colsey and brought in Rick Fox from Green Kai.
Well, it's the Lakers player who made a little yellow film after retiring......
(Well, the big guy with the Fox seed, please join the group, let's learn the posture of NBA players together...... )
And then maybe it was also Fox who felt embarrassed, and then Kobe Bryant's chance to make a name for himself came, and he replaced Fox as the team's starting small forward......
Therefore, Kobe Bryant should actually thank Fox, if Fox has been strong, Kobe Bryant may not be able to come out on top.
I don't know if Kobe Bryant bought Fox's small movie to watch as a way to express his gratitude......
