"What should I do in this game?" On May 29, 2001, the fifth game of the series between the Lakers and the Spurs will be played at the Alamo Coliseum, the home of the Spurs.

But in the away dressing room, Phil Jackson has been thinking about how to arrange this game, and it may be said that Phil Jackson has been thinking about this since the end of the previous game. As a leader in the nanny coaches, what Phil Jackson believes in has always been how to make the leading players in the team comfortable, and the true meaning of the triangle offense, to put it bluntly, is also this effect, before the last game, for the Spurs, or for any team in this league, Phil Jackson did not have any worries, with two superstars in hand, and O'Neal, a big killer on the offensive end, even if there is no so-called tactics, it is enough to crush most teams. At the same time, out of understanding Popovich, Phil Jackson also decided that the Spurs would not pose any threat to him in this series. But after the last game, Phil Jackson suddenly had no confidence and confidence, only the coach who coached Jordan could really understand Jordan's dominance and destructive power, so when there was a player in this league who was enough to match Jordan, and it was his biggest opponent, Phil Jackson subconsciously panicked, the kind of panic that suddenly lost his sense of security.

"Phil, don't worry, I can deal with those Spurs bastards." Looking at Phil Jackson, who has not said a word since entering the locker room, O'Neal is also very unhappy now, if it weren't for that little bastard, his team would have defeated the Spurs by now, he has been waiting for the championship for too long, and this season can't fail again anyway.

"Shaq, I believe in you." After hearing O'Neal's words, Phil Jackson's brows also stretched slightly, Phil Jackson's biggest confidence and reliance is O'Neal, and his task is to make O'Neal comfortable and happy, so as for the rest, it depends on O'Neal's own performance.

"Phil, don't worry, I've been off for half a season, and that's for today." After hearing Phil Jackson's inquiry, O'Neal also knew what the Lakers were going to do, and after answering Phil Jackson in the affirmative, O'Neal continued: "I've waited too long, and I don't want to wait any longer." ”

。。。。。。

Compared with the Lakers' locker room full of seriousness and gloom, the Spurs' locker room is much more relaxed now, after the last game, the Spurs' players are now unprecedentedly high in morale and confidence, especially Duncan is now fully recovered, and the Lakers are even more nothing.

"Alright, guys, crush them." Just after arranging the tactics, Popovich also shouted a slogan and walked out of the locker room.

Compared with other people's optimism, Meng Xu is much more cautious, before the start of this game, for the sake of insurance, Meng Xu used a bottle of magic potion again, and just after Meng Xu used the magic potion, Meng Xu received a prompt from the system, O'Neal's state in this game has become a demon, what is O'Neill like in the state of demons, Meng Xu has seen it. Although the trend and ending of this game are destined to be very tortuous, the more this happens, the more challenging Meng Xu feels, and if he keeps abusing vegetables, it doesn't make any sense.

In this game, the Lakers' starting lineup is center O'Neal, power forward Horace Grant, small forward Rick Fox, scoring guard Kobe Bryant, and playmaking guard Derrick Fisher. It seems that Phil Jackson will continue to play triangle offense in this game after trying one big and four small in the half. When the starting lineups of the two teams began to warm up, after seeing the familiar lineup of the Lakers, Magic Johnson was also very much looking forward to what kind of strategy the Lakers would use to break the Spurs' defense in this game.

For Phil Jackson, there really isn't much room for change, although he has won 6 championships and become a legendary head coach, but those who are familiar with the NBA know that Phil Jackson has never been a master tactician. Therefore, after seeing the familiar lineup of the Lakers, Magic Johnson knew that the Lakers would not change at the tactical level in this game, and it was up to O'Neal and Kobe Bryant to change the game.

"Boy, get ready to bear my wrath." When this game was about to start, O'Neill was not as funny and cute as usual, but surprisingly calm, only when he passed by Meng Xu's side, a sentence popped out of his mouth, but Meng Xu knew that this seemingly calm state was the precursor of O'Neal's outbreak.

And Meng Xu is the same now, from the moment he stepped on the court, Meng Xu was surprisingly calm, after using the magic potion, Meng Xu's body function is now always in a very excited state, but Meng Xu's expression and body language, as if he is not under his control, can always remain peaceful and unmoved by external objects.

Just in the midst of the earth-shattering shouts of the Alamo Sports Academy, when Duncan and O'Neill walked into the middle circle at the same time, the game officially began, just when the two sides were about to jump the ball, Meng Xu was already preparing to retreat, because Meng Xu knew very well that Duncan did not have the slightest chance to win this jump ball today. Sure enough, at the moment when the whistle sounded, O'Neal's huge body, as if equipped with a booster, rose into the air with a rub, and directly dialed the basketball to the Lakers' backcourt.

"Shaq was in surprisingly good shape today." The Magic on the sidelines were also frightened by O'Neal's swift jumping ball movements, you must know that since O'Neal came to the Lakers and became bigger and bigger, Magic Johnson really hasn't seen the big shark in the Magic period again.

And after O'Neal just entered the 3-point line, Fisher passed the cover with Kobe Bryant and directly handed the ball to O'Neal, instead of waiting for O'Neal to settle down on the inside, and then O'Neal attacked.

After O'Neal received the ball, he directly ignored David Robinson's defense, and did not choose to use his good back to hit David Robinson, and then attract the Spurs' tactics. This time O'Neal chose to attack the frame that he was not good at in the face of David Robinson's defense, but when O'Neal made this series of actions, not only the audience on the court, but even Meng Xu behind O'Neal was frightened by this big fat man, O'Neal dribbled the ball, after a feint to the right, followed by a back to the left, very easily erased David Robinson's defense, O'Neal rushed directly to the basket, facing Duncan, O'Neal dunked with both hands, and the goal was effective, It also caused Duncan's defensive foul, and O'Neal's series of actions were no different from a small forward.

After O'Neal scored this goal, the Lakers' bench immediately boiled, and the most exaggerated was the Lakers' assistant coach Kurt? Lambisler, this guy fell to his knees directly after O'Neal completed the dunk, and at the same time opened his mouth and looked at the court with an exaggerated expression.

"Tim, it's okay." received a foul in the first round of the opening game, although Duncan is still paralyzed, but he will definitely be unhappy in his heart, and Meng Xu took advantage of O'Neal's free throws to run to Duncan's side, what is O'Neal's state like today, only Meng Xu knows, don't talk about Duncan, it is the peak Chamberlain who is here, I'm afraid it will be just this O'Neal.

"It's incredible, it's incredible, O'Neal's destructive power is just too strong." When the game reached 5 minutes, the situation on the court was already out of balance, Popovich in the first quarter of 5 minutes, called 2 timeouts in a row, can not stop O'Neal wreaking, in these 5 minutes, O'Neal continued to hold the ball to hit the Spurs' inside, David Robinson and Duncan both sat off the court because of 2 fouls, and the substitute Reeve Lafrentz was directly knocked away by O'Neal in an attack just now.

"This is the real dominance, see it or not, this is the real dominance, compared to Shaq, you are nothing." Seeing O'Neal's energetic performance on the court, Phil Jackson, nicknamed "Zen Master", is now also excited and a little incoherent, in the first 5 minutes after the opening, O'Neal not only shot 6 of 7, but also made 5 fouls for the Spurs, when Duncan and David Robinson went off the court, no one could stop O'Neal, and all those who tried to block the big shark would end up with the same as Reeve Lafrentz, who was directly hit by O'Neal and flew out.
