U.S. local time, October 29.

10 a.m.

At the Los Angeles airport where the autumn wind was howling, the Bobcats' special plane arrived, and there were probably thousands of fans standing silently in the cold wind, Hu Qingniu, Wade, Dazhi...... One by one, the scene was calm when the players got off the plane.

Until a huge figure poked its head out of the cabin, a trace of exclamation for the city suddenly appeared on the indifferent face, and suddenly disappeared, leaving only indifference.

Sark? A commotion broke out in the crowd, and this was the positive angle of what they were waiting for.

Some people erupted in cheers, but there were inevitably people who sneered. There is a clear distinction between those who support Shaq and those who resist Shaq, and there are two groups of people.

O'Neal is the trailblazer of the second dynasty in Lakers history since George McCann. The implications for the Lakers speak for themselves. But many Lakers fans are annoyed that in the summer, O'Neal chose to jump out of his contract, and the Lakers lost O'Neal without getting anything.

But you really can't blame O'Neal for this matter, your Lakers are going to clean me out, and I still have to talk to you about loyalty and loyalty, isn't this nonsense. But extreme fans never put themselves in the player's shoes, and the player and the team should be mutually beneficial, and the relationship can only be maintained if both parties talk about loyalty. It's that the team abandoned O'Neal and you talked to him about loyalty.

In the face of two groups of people, O'Neill didn't show his expression, and still followed everyone on the team bus with an indifferent face. After so many years in the league, O'Neal has learned a truth, there is no practical point in fighting a war of words, and everything has to wait until the court is settled.

In the evening, 8 o'clock.

The night in Los Angeles has been lit up, and the flecked lights illuminate the central area of Los Angeles. Staples Arena, a symbol of glory and faith, rows of headlights driving in this direction, countless Lakers fans flocked to this night, and tonight's battle is unforgettable for every Lakers fan. This may not only be the reunion matchup between Kobe and O'Neal, but also the end of the Lakers dynasty, the beginning of weakness, or the final glory.

Without results, the Lakers still have a few points left in the league, and everything will have to wait for the younger leader who has been chosen to prove it.

Evening, 8:57 a.m.

The players were still warming up, and O'Neill was still sitting on the bench, without the slightest hint of getting up. He thought that when he returned to this arena in the new season, he would not be able to stop his urge to go up and dunk the basket. But when it came to Staples, he still found that he loved the arena more than he hated.

The fans in the stadium watched nervously at the giant sitting at the end of the visitors' bench, and from tonight onwards, they could no longer cheer him on with pride. Because from tonight, from this moment on, they are, opponents.

On the other side of the court, Bryant took the trainer's pass and stood alone in the bottom corner, silently practicing three points. His forehead was already sweating, and his palms were a little soaked with sweat, unlike O'Neill.

O'Neill has already achieved fame, and the glory of three consecutive championships is almost counted on O'Neal's head. Bryant? Isn't Iverson a three-in-a-row championship? But with O'Neal, there is indeed no more triple championship.

Kobe Bryant still needs to prove himself, but he's still only 24 years old. And O'Neal on the other side, Kobe Bryant don't look over, the big man is already an old man in his 30s.

In the evening, 9 o'clock sharp.

The fans stood en masse, whether they came to show support, or to welcome, or simply to spray, they needed to stand up to make their voices heard.

Away starts......

......

......

......

......

Shaquille O'Neal !!

Home starters......

......

......

......

......

Kobe Bryant !!

-

Old teammates reunited, no hugging, and no talking in their ears. The former OK combination didn't even look at each other, and everyone had a tacit understanding in their hearts about the relationship between them. did not tear his face in person, but he kept talking in front of the media.

This summer, after the Zen master stepped down, the Lakers unexpectedly chose Frank Humberland, who had little coaching experience, to take over the coaching whip.

Humberland is an offense-oriented coach, so he encouraged his players to shoot threes at the start of the preseason. In the preseason, the Lakers averaged 21.8 three-point attempts per game, the most in the league, but shot a measly 31 percent.

Just look at the Lakers' current roster.

The center is the backup center Chris Meme, the big forward is the three-no-player Bryan Cook, who has no offense, no defense and no rebounds, the small forward is quite familiar to everyone, the unstable pitcher Sasha Vujasic, and the point guard is the 1.80-meter small assaulter Chaki Atkins who has a decent offense. Such a lineup has added a Kobe, no matter how you look at it, it is not coordinated.

In fact, Bryant really didn't communicate with them on the court. There are only two situations on the Lakers' court, one is that Kobe Bryant is playing one-on-five singles, and the other is that Kobe's teammates are messing around.

The game officially began, O'Neal took off his training clothes, and stood majestically on the floor of the arena in Staples, the new season still starts from Staples, which O'Neal did not expect.

Looking at Chris Mime on the other side, what, is that the guy my successor is? This is a center forward from which corner I didn't see last season.

On the opposite side was an unnamed player, but that didn't take away the anger that O'Neill wanted to vent. Easily slapped the ball back, O'Neal didn't look back, and ran forward on a rampage.

Kobe yelled.

"Stop him."

The Lakers players seem to want to carry out the boss's orders, but the reality is cruel, Meme is already planning to hang himself on O'Neal, but O'Neal can still walk like a fly with him.

“here！！！”

The roar of the big shark resounded throughout the stadium.

Wade looked up and saw that the big shark had cleared the penalty area, and poor Mime and Cook had long since lost sight of which corner they had been swept to.

"Catch!"

Waving his arm and passing through, the big shark responds to the ball.

What will happen to O'Neal in the penalty area, Kobe knows better than anyone else, and he's been watching this kind of performance behind O'Neal since Kobe Bryant entered the league.

Turn around!

One-step!

Jump!

The big shark roars!

"Whew! Phew! ”

The little orange basketball between his hands seemed to be about to be squeezed, his eyebrows were upside down, his eyes were wide with anger, and his arms full of endless power slammed down from the air!

The power of destruction shakes everyone's heart!

"Smack!"

"Squeak!"

"Bang dang! Bang dang! ”

The basket and the rebound completely collapsed with the entire hoop and smashed straight down! The whole stadium is shaking!

After the earthquake, everyone avoided it, except for the big shark that remained in place.

Blood flowed from the big shark's arm, and a few pieces of broken glass were still stuck in his arm, which was very scary.
