The post-game news rarely mentioned the game itself, and everyone was attracted by O'Neal's dunk again.

Dr. Naismith certainly didn't have a player like Shaq O'Neal in mind when he created the game, and in his rookie season, when O'Neal smashed three rebounds in a row, pulled down a basket and made 15 blocks in a single game, a rule change was imminent.

At that time, the specific situation was like this, O'Neal couldn't come out under the basket, whether it was defense or offense, it was enough to achieve the purpose of destroying the opponent, no one could defend him one-on-one, let alone what physical confrontation under the basket, all the rules about the three-second zone were completely subverted by O'Neal alone, and it was also at that time that the league's top management suddenly discovered that the current basketball rules had seriously lagged behind the speed of human evolution, so the reasonable collision area under the basket appeared, the joint defense tactics appeared, and the three-second violation of the penalty area appeared, Everything is designed to reduce O'Neal's lethality so that he doesn't throw the game off balance because of his presence.

The truth is that O'Neal is the player who has been targeted by the league's most rules. The power of the big man is gradually diminishing under the current rules of basketball.

As we all know, the emergence of rules such as reasonable collision zones, three-second violations, and joint defense is to limit the impact of O'Neal's inside line of a monster in the restricted area, but O'Neal is a monster player who has only appeared in 60 years, and after O'Neal gradually gets old, the league finds that there are fewer and fewer excellent big men, and Yao Ming is called the last dinosaur.

Many fans are asking, why can't the current interior players play the terrifying data like Chamberlain and Russell back then? Imagine if there is no three-second violation, no joint defense, and with Yao Ming's height under the basket, how many people can pose a threat to them?

The reason is that the alliance has too many restrictions on big men. Basketball is a giant sport, but the NBA is biased to the outside for the sake of good looks, ratings, or to limit O'Neal's existence.

In 2004, the trend had not yet appeared, but as time went on, there were bound to be many talented big men who tended to make a living on the outside. It's not the big guys who have disappeared, it's the rules of the NBA that have affected the next generation of basketball people.

"Those who have an inside line win the world!"

"To control the rebound is to control the game!"

These wise sayings have gradually become less credible as the rules change, and one day, even the phrase "defense wins the championship" will be subverted, all because of the tendency of the rules and the development of technology, one day, the offense will be greater than the defense.

Fortunately, Hu Qingniu is still in 2004, which is the most defensive period in the history of the league. Although the rules have changed, the players are still the same players as they were from the previous era.

The current several strong teams, the Spurs, the Pistons, the Rockets, and the Timberwolves, are all strong teams based on defense. That's why Hu Qingniu has the audacity to hoard centers, and the current Bobcats' center configuration can be enough for four teams in 10 years, but in 2004 it can be matched.

The next opponent is the Pistons, Hu Qingniu has long expected the scene of the two teams facing each other, the last time they met in the playoffs, Big Ben and Roaring Tianzun were already at a disadvantage, this time Hu Qingniu was confident that the two fierce gods cried.

-

The game was won, but O'Neal was hospitalized, which really left the Bobcats in no mood to celebrate. So everyone went to the hospital to see O'Neill.

But as soon as they arrived at the hospital, the large number of reporters around the hospital made the Bobcats team helpless. These people are trying to find out about O'Neill's injuries.

In the end, it was Hu Qingniu who came forward to attract reporters to solve the problem and let the team members go to visit O'Neill first.

Seeing that the reporters had a tendency to block the entrance of the hospital more and more, the hospital hurriedly and voluntarily vacated its large conference room, invited Hu Qingniu to go there for an interview, and at the same time called the police and asked the police to maintain order.

There were indeed many reporters who wanted to ask Hu Qingniu, and dozens of media outlets pointed their microphones at him.

"Coach Doctor, how is Shaq doing now, and how long will he be out of action?"

Hu Qingniu.

"I'm also curious about this question because I was blocked by everyone as soon as I arrived at the hospital, and I didn't have time to visit Shaq yet. Why don't you let me in first? “

Everyone laughed for a while, but no one would let people go at this time, and who knew if Hu Qingniu would sneak away from other passages later.

Another reporter raised his hand to ask a question, because it was not an official press conference, Hu Qingniu could only ask questions by himself, but fortunately, the reporters were quite obedient and did not mess around.

"Coach Doctor, can you tell me how powerful Shaq's dunk is, this is the first time in recent years that Shaq has broken a rebound, and this is also the first time someone has broken a rebound after the league has strengthened the rebound."

Hu Qingniu smiled and said.

"This question, I just know that the Bobcats are very good chefs, probably because Shaq has been greedy a little bit lately, don't you see that he is overweight now? Overweight, I think that's why he was able to dunk rebounds. “

The reporter then asked.

"Did Shaq dunk rebounds during a practice match?"

At this time, a strong voice sounded.

"I'm not going to do something stupid in a training match, damaging the Bobcats' property, I'm going to be fined."

Only then did everyone realize that at some point, O'Neill, a large shark with bandages on his arm, had walked in through the side door.

"Wow! It's Shaq! ”

"Looks like a big mummy!"

......

The crowd was in a commotion.

The reporter just now continued to ask from a tricky angle.

"Shaq, do you mean that the Lakers' baskets don't have to pay?"

"You can understand it that way." O'Neal replied coldly, the victory over the Lakers made him happy, and when he heard that the reporters were chasing him to the hospital, he came to pretend to be a match.

Finally, a reporter asked O'Neill what he wanted to be asked.

"Shaq, what do you think of the Lakers, they seem to have fallen out of the championship race after losing you."

O'Neill smiled into the microphone.

"Competing for the title? I think you're getting it wrong, this Lakers team left me and couldn't even make the playoffs. ”

O'Neill's mocking tone sensitively picked up the topic.

Then the Lakers and Kobe Bryant had more questions, and O'Neal patiently answered them one by one, and by the way, he emphasized at the end that he was the root and everything of the Lakers dynasty.

......

The next day, someone asked Kobe about O'Neal's remarks, but did not get any response, Kobe Bryant is probably in a bad mood now, he has not yet figured out how to lead this Lakers team, he knows that the loser will only seem futile if he forcibly argues, and the rivers and lakes break up and agree, everything must be spoken by results.
