Chapter 1030: Ruler Under the Basket, Big Shark O'Neill!
The game continued.
After the Lakers replaced O'Neal and other key players on the court, the situation changed in an instant.
Da Yao is on the inside, although he is full of desire to defend against O'Neill, but the gap in strength is too big.
I can't prevent it at all.
O'Neal, who exploded with all his might, finally played a demon-level performance under the basket.
It made the Rockets players miserable.
On the other side, Kobe Bryant also began to exert his strength on the outside.
Several times against Francis's defense, forced a step-back jumper.
The ball was scored!
In just three minutes, the Lakers once again closed the score to only four points.
It was the turn of Team Rocket to attack.
Francis came up front again with the ball.
Stretched out his hand to Da Yao and asked for a block.
Da Yao did not hesitate to come to the high position and made a block for Francis.
Then Francis shook off Kobe Bryant and rushed to the basket with the help of Da Yao.
O'Neill hurriedly pounced to defend.
After seeing O'Neal pounce, Francis directly threw the basketball diagonally behind him and threw it into Da Yao's hand.
Da Yao started to throw.
"Huh!"
Two points scored.
Finally gave the Rocket team a bloody return.
Minutes and seconds passed.
The Lakers frequently scored with O'Neal's lethality on the inside.
On the Rockets' side, Da Yao's high-post mid-range shot and step-back jumper made the Lakers unable to defend.
The two sides fought hard.
Han Ning's heart was much more soothed.
That's what he wants, as long as he can keep the score above the Lakers.
However, Phil Jackson didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
looked at Da Yao, who was sweating on the field, and a smile appeared on his face.
The second quarter was played in the ninth minute.
Han Ning called a timeout, replaced Da Yao, who had lost too much physical strength, to rest, and replaced the others on the field again.
Unbeknownst to him, however, Phil Jackson was ready to use his greatest weapon.
Standing in front of the bench, Phil Jackson looked at O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, and said with a serious and serious expression: "Shaq, Kobe." I need both of you for today's game. Keep persisting and win this game! ”
O'Neal and Kobe Bryant are also a little tired.
But every time the two heard Phil Jackson say this, they couldn't help but agree in their hearts, and then returned to the court to continue fighting.
The reason is simple.
The more Phil Jackson said this, the more the two felt that the team couldn't do without them.
They are the saviors of the Lakers!
I am afraid that no American player who advocates individual heroism can refuse this statement.
And Phil Jackson's big killer is also very simple.
To sum it up in four words, it is, the main force of death!
You're a strong substitute, aren't you?!
No matter how strong it is, it can be as strong as my main force!
I don't care what kind of king to king, general to general, soldier to soldier.
I'll use the main force to knock you out!
I can't kill you!
When the players from both sides returned to the field again, Han Ning stood on the sidelines and stared wide-eyed, and couldn't help but want to curse!
Stinky old man, you don't talk about martial arts!
You just let O'Neal and Kobe Bryant live on the court!
The Rockets' bench lineup is strong in scoring.
But it's definitely not as good as the main players of the Lakers!
This point was also reflected in the game just now.
"Beep!"
The whistle blew.
Lakers offense.
Kobe Bryant came to the front court with the ball, and just wanted to attack with the ball himself, he saw O'Neal reaching for the ball in the low post.
Originally, at the beginning of the game, Han Ning asked Francis to spray a few trash words at Kobe.
These few trash words did work, too.
In the first few minutes of the opening period, there were almost no passes between Kobe and O'Neal.
The Rockets also used that time to take the lead.
But after O'Neal's play returned to normal, there were more passes between the two.
Kobe Bryant is not a fool.
The position of the boss is to be fought for.
But if you want to sacrifice a game win, that's something he can't accept anyway.
He wants the position of boss, and he wants to win.
Since the Rockets are so difficult to deal with, it doesn't matter if he passes O'Neal a few balls.
After O'Neal received Kobe's pass, he felt the power coming from Kenyon Thomas behind him and smiled disdainfully.
Just kidding, any inside line can prevent a big shark?!
Hold the ball in your right hand and start playing with your back.
One, two, three.
After successfully slamming to the basket, turn around directly.
After pushing Kenyon Thomas away, he put his hands on the ball and jumped hard.
Seeing this, Kenyon Thomas hurriedly pounced to continue the defense.
However, it was too late.
O'Neal had jumped to his feet and slammed the ball into the basket with both hands.
“Ba
g! ”
"Crunch......... Crunch .........."
The hoop was pulled by O'Neal and made a noise.
And Kenyon Thomas was also directly pushed away by O'Neal.
An extremely violent shackle.
When the Rockets fans at the scene saw this scene, they were a little helpless and desperate.
It's not their players.
It's O'Neill who is so brutal!
If you don't go to Da Yao, you won't be able to guard against O'Neill.
But they also know about Da Yao's physical strength.
If Da Yao is allowed to play on the court all the time, it will increase the risk of injury and reduce the scoring efficiency.
This point has been explained by Han Ning to the media a long time ago.
There is no way, the Rockets players can only be tough with the Lakers.
It was the turn of Team Rocket to attack.
Devin Brown pulls up front with the ball.
Faced with Kobe's defense, Devin Brown did not choose to attack directly.
waved his hand and called Dazhi to come over and block the demolition.
Then he used Dazhi's blocking to shake off Kobe's defense and came to a 45° angle outside the left three-point line.
Shoot straight from the start.
However, Kobe Bryant's movements were also very fast, and after bypassing Dazhi, he pounced and tried to interfere.
"Bang dang!"
It's a pity that the basketball smashed out of the basket.
The rebound was easily picked off by O'Neal.
Without the protection of Da Yao and Kevin Cato, it becomes very difficult for the Rockets to get a rebound.
Bryant once again came to the front court with the ball.
Then he rushed directly to the right side with the ball.
Devin Brown scrambled to chase after him to defend.
After coming to the low post, Kobe Bryant directly chose to play with his back.
His shoulders shook slightly, then he suddenly turned to the right.
Take off, fall back.
With a flick of his right hand, he threw the basketball.
"Huh!"
Another two points were scored.
In just a few rounds, the Lakers' main lineup wiped out the difference.
Han Ning stood on the sidelines, his expression a little ugly.
In this kind of hard way, he really has a headache.
After all, O'Neal is too buggy under the basket!
This kind of bug is not the same as Duncan's strong enemy.
O'Neal's dominance under the basket doesn't make any sense to you.
With him under the basket, the Rockets played extremely uncomfortable.
But Han Ning didn't want to replace Da Yao, who hadn't rested for long.
We'll have to find another way to keep O'Neill at bay!
