Mo Xi and O'Neal, who played high in the first quarter, were directly pressed to the bench to rest at the beginning of the second quarter, both of whom were the absolute core of the team, and neither Van Gundy nor Phil Jackson wanted to use these two big killers in the first place to stand up.

The second quarter became a moment for both sides to fight for depth.

To be reasonable, the strength of the Lakers is completely based on the strength of the "OK" combination, and the other role players of the Lakers, except for a very few people, actually can't play much of a role, so at the beginning of the second quarter, the Lakers instantly fell into the disadvantage.

The Lakers are Kobe Bryant leading the second team, and Robert Horry is on the court with him, and the rest is the rest of the people. Well, there's nothing wrong with that.

On the Knicks' side, center Ewing, power forward Camby, small forward Larry Johnson, scoring guard Sprewell and Arenas, who didn't get much chance to perform in the last round, have both offense and defense, inside and outside, if these people meet at the peak, they will be All-Stars, and they will inevitably be sprayed together.

Looking at his own lineup and the lineup on the opposite side, although it is a little dim, but there are still some bright stars, Kobe Bryant decisively decided to turn on the singles mode.

But unfortunately, the Knicks' lineup, not to mention anything else, may be too poor in defensive ability as Arenas in the No. 1 position, and several other people are really defensive gates. Kobe Bryant tried his best to get past Sprewell, and was about to break into the interior line to stage a good show of flying and dunking in front of his fathers and fellow villagers, and then he saw the Knicks' No. 33 standing in front of him like an iron tower, if there was only such one, Kobe would also give it a try, but what was going on with the eyeing Camby next to him? And where did this fat aunt with a lewd smile suddenly appear on my side come from?

Kobe instantly converted all the force of the forward rush to his knees, Kobe Bryant forcibly stopped his body, took off in the air, and made another emergency stop jump shot, but this time Kobe Bryant's hand felt a little bad, the ball bounced out of the frame directly, and Camby took off the rebound.

The Knicks returned to the rhythm of the past, directly a long pass in the backcourt, and found the duo in the frontcourt, but this time it was replaced by Sprewell and Arenas, both of whom are good at attacking and defending to play fast offense, the Lakers struggled to return to defense, but it was difficult to form an effective interference with the two people, the Knicks formed a half-court 2 to 1 in the front court, Sprewell passed the ball to Arenas with a hit, and Arenas started directly towards the basket.

Although Arenas is still a little immature now, he can already see the scoring ability of the unparalleled in the future, under the defense of the Lakers, Arenas used his upper body strength to force the ball in, and at the same time caused the opponent to foul.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Knicks hit a small 7-0 climax for the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant struggled to support it, but he didn't pull the score up again.

With six minutes left in the first half, Moxi and O'Neal both returned to the court, and the Knicks led the Lakers by five points at 36:31.

After O'Neal came on the court, he directly gave the Lakers a shot in the arm, taking advantage of the lack of concentration in the defense of Moxi, quickly pulled the Knicks' defensive chain, and suddenly hit the basket to grab a vacant position.

O'Neal's offense boosted the morale of the Lakers in an instant, but it also stimulated the blood of Moxi, for a while, the two centers were fighting together, this time Kobe wanted to intervene, but found that there are still tactics in the eyes of these two people, how to be happy, how to score how to play, or share the ball, or play alone, there is no tactical routine at all, even Kobe himself can only run around stupidly, seeking offensive opportunities that may appear at any time.

At the end of the half, the two sides blasted out a score of 47 draws, Mo Xi and O'Neal can be said to be a great contributor, Mo Xi cut 18 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 block in the half, O'Neal was not far behind, scored 16 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks, the pure offensive ratio of the two accounted for half of their respective teams, this time, the two people are really angry.

After the start of the second half, fans on both sides were surprised to find that it seemed that their respective coaches did not make adjustments or even stop for this situation, but instead intensified a little, as if they wanted to fight to see whose center was stronger.

As soon as he came up, O'Neill sat down directly and hit Mo Xi.

After receiving the ball in the low post, O'Neal didn't look at the surrounding situation, and just vigorously slammed it in, and had a hard encounter with Mo Xi.

Mo Xi resisted O'Neill strongly, but O'Neill suddenly retracted his strength, and Mo Xi couldn't hold back and pushed forward.

"Toot ~"

Defensive foul on Moxi.

Mo patted his chest hatefully, and cursed secretly in his heart, why did this dead fat man suddenly have an IQ online?

The Lakers played the ball on the sideline, and O'Neal re-played the ink regret.

With the lesson of the last time, Mo Xi didn't dare to move too much, O'Neal saw the opportunity, squeezed hard, ran over Mo Xi, and directly rubbed the overlord under the basket, and the split hand was a heavy buckle.

However, Mo Xi immediately turned around and returned O'Neill.

It was the Knicks' turn to attack, Mark Jackson controlled the ball and slowly advanced, Mo Xi and O'Neal were entangled in the waist position, Mo Xi hoped to get a comfortable position in this position, but obviously O'Neal would not give this position to Mo Xi.

Mo Xi had an idea, and simply took a small leap forward, bluffing O'Neill to take a step forward.

However, Mo Xi did not catch the ball, but took advantage of the shock of the landing, quickly turned back, rushed forward, and before hitting O'Neal, he quickly turned around, floated outward, and at the same time handed a hand, signaling Mark Jackson to pass.

Mark Jackson accurately hoisted the ball into Moxi's hands, and at this time, Moxi slid forward again to the waist, and O'Neal was half a step behind before hurrying back to his defensive position.

It's a pity that Mo's low-post offensive style is already known for its speed, so how can he not see such a good opportunity?

lowered his center of gravity, didn't even feint, and directly Sigma stepped up to the line, strode to the basket, blocked O'Neal behind him, and grabbed the ball with one hand, which was directly a turning over and dunking.

The Knicks' bench was another white towel flying.

Off the field, both coaches watched the two talented centers perform with expressionless faces, unlike Phil Jackson, who is really in the chest, Van Gundy is now very ,......*()%&¥#这种场面, I haven't seen it either! I'm desperate! What can I do? Van Gundy didn't want to let the game return to a normal rhythm, but O'Neal attacked too fiercely, every ball smashed on the heart of the Knicks, if no one responded directly, even if the Knicks could score, the momentum would be one and the other, and it would not be long before the players on the Knicks court would appear to be in a stalemate, but they always felt that they were in a state of disadvantage. But now such a center matchup? Van Gundy said he was still apprehensive.
