"Toot!"

The whistle blew and the game continued.

After confirmation by the team doctor, Phil Jackson has a clear idea of Karl Malone's physical condition.

Next, he is unlikely to continue playing.

The body that is already forty years old can no longer allow Karl Malone to play and contribute.

Otherwise, the injury is only the best outcome.

This also means that the Lakers' advantage on the interior has become gone.

The Knicks' interior line will have some advantages.

The most important thing is!

The outside players of the Knicks can once again wantonly hit the inside to complete the scoring!

This is definitely not a good thing for the Lakers!

The Knicks attack.

After Allen Iverson came to the front court with the ball, he habitually glanced at the inside.

Gary Payton, who was in charge of defending Allen Iverson, breathed a sigh of relief.

He's also a little used to Allen Iverson's dribbling to the front court and passing the basketball into the interior play.

But in the next second, Allen Iverson took his gaze back.

Then he got up directly and rushed to the right.

Gary Payton, who reacted, hurriedly chased after him to defend.

However, the experience of suddenly relaxing and tensing up the nerves and body muscles again made Gary Payton, who is already 35 years old, very uncomfortable.

Even he could feel that he seemed to have some signs of weakness.

It was because of the momentary muscle tension that his body had some emergency reactions.

Plus Aaron Iverson's speed is extraordinarily fast.

This made Gary Payton, who was chasing back the defense, a little unable to keep up with Allen Iverson's speed.

However, Allen Iverson, who only needed two steps to get past Gary Payton, suddenly stopped.

Pulled the basketball back with his right hand.

Gary Payton, who was unable to react for a while, also wanted to turn around and pounce back to defend.

only to find that he could no longer control his body.

"Poof." Bang.

Fall straight to the ground.

Allen Iverson glanced at Gary Payton, then put his hands together and shot straight to the jumper.

"Huh!"

A long two-point score.

Bring the gap to 18 points remaining.

Gary Payton got up from the floor, rubbed his knees, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

It's not okay to be old.

Turning around, the Lakers attacked.

After Karl Malone went off, the Lakers' dominance on the interior was gone.

No matter how strong O'Neill is.

But there is a big Yao who is not inferior to him, plus a Kurt Thomas.

There's no way the Knicks are going to lose on the inside.

As for the rest of the Lakers' power forwards..........

Don't look at the lot, but except for Carl Malone, it's negligible for the time being.

Not to mention Kurt Thomas, it is not enough for them to stumble with the Knicks' backup power forward.

Medvidenko: "??? When I was a weak chicken??? ”

Brian Cook: "Phew! If you have the ability, let me try it! ”

Horace Grant: "I'm old, but I'm not dead!" ”

Jamal Sampson: "............"

Zach Randolph: "Huh?! Do you have an opinion?! ”

Medvidenko, Brian Cook, Horace Grant, Jamal Sampson: "Don't dare, don't dare .........."

After losing the dominance of the interior line, the Lakers' offense was not as smooth as before.

Gary Payton dribbled to the front court and passed the basketball to the interior to O'Neal.

O'Neal faced Da Yao's defense and forced his way to the basket.

But with Kurt Thomas' timely package defense, he still couldn't score the basketball.

Offense and defense are switched.

After Allen Iverson dribbled to the frontcourt, he found that the person in charge of defending himself had changed from Gary Payton to Kobe.

After seeing this scene, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

You don't have to think about it to know why you are changing.

In desperation, he had to pass the basketball to Jose Calderón, who was not far away.

Gary Payton was still a little confused when he saw Allen Iverson pass the basketball to Jose Calderón.

This kind of offensive opportunity, Allen Iverson does not come by himself, and does not pass the basketball to the interior to attack.

Instead passed the basketball to a rookie player?!

Is this a bully for yourself?!

Although Lao Tzu is old, he is not wasted!

Thinking of this, Gary Payton's heart welled up with anger.

His eyes were fixed on José Calderón in front of him.

I vowed in my heart to give this rookie player a good look.

Then, Jose Calderón only tentatively made a triple threat move after receiving the basketball.

Then he started shooting directly.

The determination to shoot the basket decisively made Gary Payton have no time to react at all.

"Huh!"

Three points scored.

At this moment, Gary Payton's face didn't look good.

Aaron Iverson hit you just now, and you can't stop it.

How can a rookie player easily score on the head?!

After feeling the eye attack from Kobe Bryant not far away, Gary Payton's face became even more gloomy.

After the Lakers relied on O'Neal to score a difficult goal, Allen Iverson once again passed the basketball to Jose Calderon.

This time, Gary Payton directly chose to defend closely.

He said menacingly: "Boy, if you have the ability, you can try again." ”

When José Calderón saw Gary Payton's face, his heart blossomed with joy.

Originally, the task given to him by his boss was to try his best to use the breakthrough to consume Gary Payton's physical strength.

But just now, after seeing Gary Payton a little stunned, he unconsciously shot a three-pointer directly.

Now we see Gary Payton directly choose to step forward and defend closely.

Doesn't this give yourself a chance to break through?!

After dribbling the ball with his right hand and taking a step back behind him, José Calderón suddenly made a move.

Dribble the ball left and right with both hands in front of you.

Dribbling with his left hand, he took two steps to the left with a jerk.

Gary Payton was shocked when he saw this scene.

Boy.

This rookie doesn't just shoot basketballs?!

Will there be a breakthrough?!

While his heart was surprised, Gary Payton's body also reacted. Caught up in time to defend.

But the next second.

José Calderón has a c-of-motion amplitude

ossove

, and pulled the basketball back to his right hand.

Then there was a sprint, shaking off Gary Payton and rushing straight inside.

Then came a throw.

"Bang!"

"Huh!"

Basketball is played into the basket.

At this time, Kobe Bryant was even more dissatisfied.

What's the matter?!

Let a rookie player shoot in a row?!

Are you still okay?!

Feeling Kobe's eye attack, Gary Payton felt a little crying in his heart.

MD。

It's about the ability to break through and shoot.

This is an ordinary second-wheel show?!

You say he's a talented player in the lotto show, and he doesn't believe it or not!

At this time, Nash, who was watching the game at home, suddenly felt a very familiar feeling in his heart after seeing this scene.

"This routine........ I think I've been tricked! ”
