As a result, to the disappointment of Lakers fans, their O'Neal also failed to save the Lakers and even failed to lead the Lakers to a win at the hands of the Kings.

In this round of the series, Barkley was completely powerful, and O'Neal averaged only 24 points per game!

On other insiders, he can score an average of 24 points per game, which is already quite good data.

But this standard can't be put on O'Neal, in the playoff series, not letting O'Neal score more than 30 points is a success!

Now the Lakers don't have too many scoring points, O'Neal has limited it, and it is obviously unrealistic to expect the Lakers' backcourt to break through Nash's defense and score high points.

Another round of sweeping, the Kings advanced to the Finals, and it looks like the Kings are so close to winning the championship.

Even Drexler, who has been suffering from injuries, is extremely healthy in the playoffs, and his performance is quite like his peak.

Petry, who is now serving as the Grizzlies' president of basketball affairs, jumped straight up.

What does it say about the Muresan he sold, the playoff reimbursement that led to the Rockets' elimination, and the traded-in Drexler who performed well in the playoffs?

It shows that there was nothing wrong with the deal at the beginning.

Petrie trumpeted in the newspapers the correctness of his trade and his contribution to the King's championship.

Without himself, the king would not have a championship, and the reason why the king is where he is today is all due to his own credit......

and also vaguely said that he was ghosted by Davidson, so he had no choice but to leave the king.

Davidson also read this report and couldn't help but be speechless.

Petri is getting more and more out of character, thinking that if he was honest at the beginning, he would definitely be able to do it for a long time in the position of general manager of the Kings, after all, with a championship foundation, it is a meritorious hero to the team, and the team will not be able to fire him for no reason.

Now since Davidson was fired, I feel a little crazy......

Davidson doesn't bother to care about a clown like Petri, anyway, he is about to join the Grizzlies, and Petrie will definitely have to roll up and leave again.

……

The Kings swept the Lakers early and got a ticket to the Finals.

But the bull has hit a hard stubble......

The Pacers, led by Larry Bird, actually fought with the Bulls to tie seven.

Not to mention the fans are unbelievable, even Davidson finds it a little incredible.

If it weren't for the Kings, the Bulls would still be the strongest team in the history of the league.

Being able to tie seven with the strongest team in the history of the league, the strength of this Pacer is really a bit too terrifying.

You must know that the Pacers last season failed to even make the playoffs.

And Davidson's first year in charge of the Kings only lasted five games under the Bulls!

Is it that the strength of the bulls has weakened? Or is the Pacers so strong that they can compete with the Bulls?

With Larry Bird leading the Pacers to a tiebreaker with the Bulls, I'm afraid Larry Brown will be a little uncomfortable right now.

The Pacers led by himself didn't even make the playoffs, and Larry Bird took over only one year, and he could directly wrestle with the Bulls, which is really unacceptable.

……

Davidson doesn't bother to care now whether the Bulls are getting weaker than they were in '95 or the Pacers are getting too strong.

Anyway, looking at the current situation, the champion will definitely be the king.

As a result, in the tiebreaker, the Pacers lost, but the loss was a bit wrongful, and even Davidson cried out for the Pacers.

In this game, Jordan's performance was actually quite bad, only 9 of 25 shots in the whole game, just 36% of the shooting rate, such a shooting rate for Jordan, it is undoubtedly an abnormal performance.

Miller, on the other hand, played extremely well, scoring 22 points on just 13 shots, including 4-of-7 three-pointers.

In this case, it should have been the best time for the Pacers to overturn the Bulls......

But the Pacers' loss this time was on rebounds.

In the whole game, the Pacers grabbed only four offensive rebounds in total.

That's right, in the NBA main game, the Eastern Conference Finals, the Pacers grabbed a total of four frontcourt rebounds for the entire team......

On the other hand, on the Bulls' side, they grabbed a total of 22 rebounds in the frontcourt!

Eighteen more frontcourt rebounds, what does that mean?

It almost means that the Bulls have eighteen more shots than the Pacers!

Among them, Jordan grabbed five frontcourt rebounds alone, and Pippen grabbed six frontcourt rebounds alone......

In the end, the Pacers only took 56 shots, while the Bulls took 76 shots, a difference of 20 shots!

The Pacers' offense was efficient, but they couldn't stand up to so many shots......

You must know that Miller's 13 shots are already the most shots of the entire Pacers, and excluding Miller, none of the eight players on the Pacers court has made more than 10 shots.

In this case, it is obviously difficult for the Pacers to win.

This can also see how important rebounds are, and in the case of rebounds being completely blown out, the only way to wait for the team is a dead end.

In this game, the offensive efficiency of the Pacers was actually much better than that of the Bulls, but it was still difficult to escape the fate of defeat.

This game can be regarded as a wake-up call for Davidson, that is, what is lacking cannot lack a decent rebounder.

Today's Kings still have the existence of Barkley, a rebounding monster, so the rebounding is not a loss, plus the offensive end and the outside defensive end, winning is naturally invincible.

But then Davidson is about to coach the Vancouver Grizzlies, and the Grizzlies will not have such a foundation at that time......

The Grizzlies are the only player on the team who can handle it right now, and that's Raheem.

Although Rahim is an interior player and plays the power forward position, his rebounding strength is not particularly outstanding.

In the season that just ended, Raheem averaged only 7.1 rebounds per game, which is completely different from the level of the bus.

In this way, if Davidson wants not to repeat the mistakes of the Pacers, he must get a decent rebounder on the inside.

At least it has to be at the level of Muresan to ensure the team's record in the new season.

……

These are all things that need to be considered after the Finals, and Davidson doesn't want to think about it so much at the moment, after all, which three players don't know about the alternative plan at that time......

……

On May 31, the finals officially began.

G1 is still the home of the Kings, just like last season.

I don't know if it's Davidson's delusion, it seems that the strength of the Bulls has indeed become weaker than in the previous two years.

It stands to reason that the strength of the Kings is slightly damaged compared to last season, after all, Drexler will definitely not play as much as the healthy Murraysang against the Bulls.

The king's strength has been damaged, and it stands to reason that the bulls should not lose so easily, if they don't defeat the king.

But the Kings won this game quite easily, the Bulls lost by 22 points, and only scored 81 points in the whole game.

Jordan struggled in the tiebreaker with the Pacers and eventually relied on a huge rebounding advantage to win.

Maybe the bad luck of that game has not yet dissipated, and his shot in this game is still quite unreliable, with 10 of 25 shots, and the shooting rate has just reached 40%.
