Chapter 116 Boiled Frogs in Warm Water (3)

Chapter 116 Boiled frogs in warm water ([-])

Madison Square Garden is boiling. This is O'Neill. The inside is like a bug. He has always been a model of strong inside and talent crushing.

You also have today!

Ben Wallace's beautiful girl group revived again: "Big Ben, Big Ben, I love you, I want to give you a monkey..."

The home commentary booth was also in chaos, and the commentator shouted: "Neighbors and neighbors, this is definitely not an action that people on earth can complete. There is no doubt that this is an alien-level block! Ben Wallace, the solar system can no longer bear your strength. You must come from the depths of the universe!"

On the hanging screen in the center of the court, Ben’s earth-shattering block is being continuously played back at 360° without dead ends: Ben Wallace’s clothes are flying up from the ground, like a hero who descended from the sky, while O’Neal has a hideous face, his arms are twisted but he refuses to let go of the basketball, and finally falls to the ground unwillingly. He looks like a maxed out villain boss!

The referee chose to drop the ball at the free throw line. Ben Wallace and O'Neal stood at both ends of the free throw line. The referee, who was in sharp contrast to their huge bodies, stood in the middle of the free throw line like a hobbit holding a basketball.

The result of the jump ball is still amazing, Ben Wallace actually beat O'Neal by jump ball!

Height does not dominate, wingspan does not dominate, but Ben Wallace, who has just completed a cosmic block, seems to have suddenly opened up the two veins of Ren and Du, and made a sharp comparison.

After performing another vertical take-off explosive head flat frame, the famous high jumper Ben Wallace easily won the high jump competition between O'Neill and O'Neill.

Of course, it was Zhao Ke who had the most confidence in Ben Wallace's bounce, so when Ben and O'Neal started jumping the ball, Zhao Ke had already run towards the Lakers' backcourt.

When Ben Wallace took the rebound with an absolute advantage, looking around, the empty Lakers backcourt, only a hurricane Zhao Ke, and the number 18 behind him was beating like an elf.

As soon as he landed, Big Ben threw the basketball towards No. 18. The whistling basketball brushed past Robert Horry's ear. He was startled, and quickly squatted down with his head in his arms, thinking that Ben Wallace was going to hit him with the ball...

Zhao Ke didn't dare to catch the pass from Da Ben with one hand, turned around immediately after running inside the three-point line, aimed at the basketball's landing point and started running backwards.

With a "bang", the basketball hit Zhao Ke's arms. The huge impact hit Zhao Ke so hard that he couldn't catch his breath. He held the basketball for half a second, then turned around and ran into the inside lane, making a three-step layup lightly, like a nimble deer.

Daben expressed strong dissatisfaction with Zhao Ke's behavior of wasting opportunities: "Come on, man, shouldn't you perform a 360° turn and dunk with such a good opportunity? Your three-step layup like a motherfucker is simply inferior!"

Zhao Ke shrugged and said, "Big Ben, bro, 95% of the alveoli have been crushed to death by the basketball you threw over, okay? Is it considered extreme manipulation for you to be able to get the basketball into the hoop before you faint?"

Billups agreed deeply, "Ben, your long pass is really deadly. My hand was smashed by a basketball last time..."

Da Ben shook his huge afro head, "You mortals are so fragile. I'd better go find O'Neill, how lonely invincibility is..."

From this moment on, O'Neill found it more and more difficult to play Ben Wallace single-handedly. Although there was a factor of O'Neill's physical decline, the more intuitive reason was that Ben was abused and became a monster.

After one and a half quarters of confrontation, the smart Ben has discovered O'Neill's way of exerting force and rhythm when he hits back. His lower body strength is not inferior to O'Neill's, and the bench press is even stronger.

Before O'Neal hit Ben Wallace with a certain rhythm: hit once, hit twice, hit three, turn around, bend knees, and dunk.

At this time, O'Neal found that he couldn't squeeze to the basket after three back hits. He needed five to seven times, or even more, to hit and squeeze harder to get a comfortable shooting position.

But there is no way, today the Lakers collectively entered the smithy, and O'Neal also tried to split the ball, but the teammates were better than each other. Even Kobe, O'Neal passed the ball three times against his conscience, but only got one of three shots in return, and he had to rely on himself!

From the second half of the second quarter to the entire third quarter, O'Neal continued to maintain his bravery and efficiency, but the support from his teammates was too limited.

During this period, Fisher made 5 of 0 shots and Kobe made 8 of 3 shots. As a result, the Lakers were always about 10 points behind. Even if O'Neal tried his best, he would never catch up with the score.

In the fourth quarter, O'Neal obviously couldn't keep up with his physical strength. He started to reduce back dunks, but began to use a lot of offensive methods that were not usually used, such as turnaround jumpers, such as hooks, and his offensive efficiency began to decline.

O'Neal's physical strength declined, and Kobe began to take over the game, but Zhao Ke didn't give him too many opportunities.In this game, Zhao Ke did not participate in the offense much, and his focus was on the defensive end.

In the playoffs, especially in the finals, relying on defense to kill opponents is far more strategically deterrent than relying on offense to kill opponents.

The main theme of the Lakers just now is: offense!attack!Attack again!The Sacramento Kings fought for seven games, and they suddenly fell into a defensive quagmire like the Knicks. Everyone was not used to it. After they got used to this defensive intensity, the feel was gone!

Especially Kobe, although he was the only player in the Lakers who was seriously defended in the series against the Kings, and he was defended by Doug Christie, known as the "Kobe Terminator".

But Doug Christie's defense is fundamentally different from Zhao Ke's. He averages less than 2.5 fouls per game. He is a truly elegant and technical defender. He rarely defends close to the body, but predicts, reads the passing line, and cuts the pass very quickly.

Doug Christie can limit Kobe's shots, passes, and make mistakes, but his physical consumption is very small.This is the opposite of Zhao Ke. Zhao Ke is all about physical contact. He can't wait for the whole game to be parasitic on Kobe like an octopus.

So much so that in the fourth quarter, Kobe got back the possession of the ball, his fingers were cold, and he made 9 of 2 shots!

88:75, this is the final score, the Lakers lost the first game of the finals.

奥尼尔24投18中，拿到44分11个篮板。科比19投6中，拿到15分4个篮板4次助攻。

Others didn't even score more than 6...
