NBA backer king

Chapter 557 Expand the three-second zone?
In the TNT live broadcast, Barkley said with some emotion: "Michael is really working hard in this finals. His style of play is completely based on breakthroughs, which is consuming his physical potential. But unfortunately, he still allowed old K to get the match point."

Kenny Smith said: "Michael Jordan focused on breakthrough play in the early stage, post-up singles from the outside in the middle and late stages, and mid-range shooting. He really worked hard in this finals, to the point of desperate.

But it's a pity that the old K is really too strong. When Jordan and O'Neal performed better, the old K became stronger and more invincible. "

Bill Walton held a statistical table and said: "62 points in a single game, the first in the history of the finals, old K's scoring ability is unprecedented. And the [-]% shooting rate, this is an extremely terrifying efficiency, also unprecedented in ancient and modern times.

打到现在，五场总决赛，他分别轰下42分、35分、38分、39分和今晚的62分，场均轰下43.2分。

迈克尔乔丹五场分别是40分、31分、40分、32分和今晚的45分，场均轰下37.6分。

奥尼尔五场分别是29分、28分、28分、26分和今晚的36分，场均29.4分。

As the outside core of the Lakers, Richmond's performance in the five finals was much worse than the three, averaging only 15.5 points in five games.

Old K and Rock jointly contributed 58.7 points per game, and Jordan and O'Neal jointly contributed 67 points. The combined efficiency of the two pairs of inside and outside lines is actually the same.

But the Lakers won the match point in the finals. The reason for this is that the old K is more versatile and contributes to the team in terms of rebounds, defense, and assists. The second is that the Lakers have a stronger rotation. "

Barkley took the data sheet, looked at it, and said with a shocked expression: "The performances of Old K and Michael are both disappointing. They both belong to the same level, and they are both people who created an era. O'Neill is slightly inferior. He is not in the same level as Old K and Michael.

As for Rock, I'm sorry, but his performance is not as good as that of O'Neal, who also played in the Finals for the first time. He is no longer an outside core in the Lakers. Whether it is statistics or tactical status, he is not an outside core. The Lakers are single core. "

Kenny Smith nodded in agreement, and said: "The old K averaged 46.6 points per game in the finals last year, and this year it would be lower. If it weren't for the 62 points he scored tonight, it would be much lower. He averaged 38.5 points per game in the first four games, which is about the same as Michael Jordan.

This means that in the first four games, the Knicks defended him well, and O'Neal also performed well. Unfortunately, the Knicks lasted for three quarters tonight, but O'Neal was defeated by Old K in the final quarter.

Otherwise, no matter how well O'Neill performs and how determined his will is, it's hard to say who will win tonight. "

Bill Walton raised a question at this time. He said, "Two, if old K leads the Lakers to win the championship this time, do you think the league will consider canceling illegal defenses and introduce zone defense rules?"

Barkley and Kenny Smith looked at each other and nodded in unison.

Kenny Smith said: "The league introduced the K law, mainly to limit his lethality to other players.

But the K-law still has very little restrictions on his strength. His existence does still have a destructive effect on the balance of the alliance. I think the alliance will consider it. "

Barkley also nodded and said: "Before the K-law was introduced, there were voices in the league to introduce zone defense rules. Now that the old K scored 62 points in a single game, this voice is likely to appear again."

At the scene, Pharaoh, who was exhausted to death, was surrounded by reporters.

"Old K, scored 62 points in the finals, what do you want to say the most?" the reporter shouted the loudest.

"Me, 62 points?" Old Wang was surprised.

"Yes, that's 62 points. You are now the number one individual scorer in a single game in the league's history finals." The reporter also said excitedly.

"Ha ha……"

Lao Wang laughed, and after a moment of complacency, he said, "What I want to say most now is that I am lucky to have won today. Otherwise, if I score 62 points in the finals but lose the game, I will kill myself with a piece of tofu."

"Ha ha……"

Some domestic reporters laughed out loud.

Reporters who don't understand are at a loss.

"Old K, will the finals end in G6?" A Los Angeles reporter asked excitedly.

"It's possible. I don't want to play a tiebreaker with the Knicks. It's a bit dangerous." Lao Wang laughed.

"Old K, the danger you mentioned is that you think the Knicks can still threaten the Lakers?" A reporter asked.

Lao Wang nodded and said, "Of course, it was very difficult for us to win today. Jordan and O'Neal are very strong together, very strong."

"Old K, you defeated O'Neal in the final quarter and both offensive and defensive ends. Where do you think O'Neal is weak?" A reporter asked.

Lao Wang thought for a while and said seriously: "Willpower, he needs a stronger desire to win. In fact, his strength is really strong, and I can't stop him from scoring many times. By the way, how many points did he score tonight?"

"36 points." A domestic reporter said loudly.

"Look, he actually scored 36 points on my head. No center has ever scored so many points on my head, and his efficiency is very high tonight, even higher than mine at one point. So it is very difficult for us to win tonight. We can't be careless. We have to fight with all our strength in the G6 game." Lao Wang said.

After seeing off his family and friends, Pharaoh went back to the dressing room, went into the bathroom, washed his body, and then soaked in the medicine bucket.

"Scoring 62 points in one game is really tiring! Gao Bin, the donkeys in our previous production team worked from morning to night, and I don't think I have ever been so tired." Leaning on the wall of the barrel, he said with emotion.

"Haha..." Gao Bin laughed and fell down beside the bucket.

"Old K, it wasn't you who broke out, they will win tonight."

"They teamed up and scored 81 points. I can't beat the two of them alone. Can I do without you?"

"O'Neal and Jordan really went crazy tonight. Their shots accounted for [-]% of the Knicks' shots. I only saw them two shots."

"Tonight O'Neal and Jordan seem to have an appointment. In the first half, O'Neal's efficiency was higher than that of Old K. In the second half, Jordan exploded again. It was not easy for us to win today!"

The Lakers players who were taking a shower shouted one after another.

Chris Mullin also soaked into the medicine barrel, and said excitedly: "Old K, you almost made O'Neill cry in the last quarter, haha!"

The others also laughed out loud.

Kobe yelled: "That shark relied on Jordan to feed him cakes in the first half. After eating enough, it withered in the second half."

"Haha..." Everyone laughed again.

The locker room of the home team is like a coffin, no one speaks, no one even moves, they all sit there, like dead people.

Jordan's face was as gloomy as ice, and he leaned against the closet with his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping.

But everyone knows that it is impossible for Jordan to sleep in the locker room at this time, and it is impossible for him to sleep if he swallows a lot of sleeping pills at this time.

Just like in the Bulls, Jordan didn't speak, and no one dared to speak in the locker room. Even Oakley just gently removed the bandage from the sidelines.

O'Neill, staring blankly at the wardrobe across the way, but out of focus at all, his gaze penetrates Madison Square Garden and is roaming the cosmos.

Other role players and marginalized people looked at each other and I looked at you, and no one dared to speak, dare not move, or even dare to take a bath.

Phil Jackson leaned against the wall next to his clothes, with his arms crossed in front of his chest, and he stared blankly at the opposite ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jordan had one loss, two losses and three losses against Old K, and now he lost half of the fourth final matchup, and he is the same.

At this time, on the court, the media is interviewing some live stars.

"Allen, what do you think is the difference between O'Neal and old K? Are they the same level of star?" Some media asked.

Iverson thought for a while and said cautiously: "I think O'Neal is the old K in the first three quarters, maybe not as versatile as the old K, but he is really strong in the first three quarters, strong enough to rival the old K.

In the first three quarters, as long as the Sharks got the ball in the low post, even the old K would have difficulty stopping his scoring.

But entering the final quarter, the Sharks' physical fitness declined and their state declined, while Old K was still able to play the performance of the first three quarters, and even had a strong physical explosion at critical moments..."

Speaking of this, he said in shock: "This is a terrible thing. All the main players will decline in the final quarter, but it seems that Old K will not. How strong his physical strength is, I am afraid only God knows."

"So are you looking forward to working with one of them?" the reporter pressed.

"of course."

Iverson nodded excitedly: "I am good at making breakthroughs, and I think I am a perfect match with them."

"Do you think the Knicks have a chance to comeback in this finals?" the reporter asked again.

"This one……"

Iverson shook his head and said: "I don't know, I can't say it well, Old K is very powerful, super powerful, unprecedentedly powerful.

However, Michael Jordan and O'Neal combined are also super powerful and capable of defeating any opponent. Anything can happen between them. "

"I think they will reach the tiebreaker. The Knicks are definitely not weaker than the Lakers, but before that, the Knicks should let O'Neal rebuild his confidence in defeating the old K, otherwise nothing will happen."

Not far away, facing media interviews, Larry Bird told reporters.

"Larry, what do you think of Old K's performance tonight?" a reporter asked.

Larry Bird expressed admiration and said: "The indescribable dominance, especially in the last quarter, he played a performance that you can't understand. You can only express admiration for his strength. If you are his opponent, then surrender will be the only thing you can do.

You have to know, he is facing the Knicks, the monster O'Neal, who is O'Neal?It was another behemoth, a monster who was talented enough to rank among the top three in league history, but he was crushed by Old K in the final quarter.

At that time, I saw the old K force O'Neal under the basket, and his jaw fell to the floor. Of course, I picked it up and put it on again, haha! "

"We still have a chance."

At this time, a low voice suddenly sounded in the coffin-like locker room of the home team, very hoarse, like after a bad cold.

Then, the voice became high-pitched and shouted sharply: "I can accept failure, but I will never give up! Never!"

"Michael?"

O'Neill, whose mind was roaming the universe, was awakened, and looked at Jordan in astonishment. It's this time, and you still don't admit defeat?

He thought of the scene of being raped by the old K at the basket in the final quarter, and when he thought of being bombarded by the old K with 62 points on his head, he had no fighting spirit. He just wanted to make the finals end quickly.

The 12 minutes in the final quarter tonight was a nightmare for him that he didn't want to be touched again.

"Michael, you are right, we have no reason to give up hope, I will help you."

But at this time, Oakley showed his attitude and used this attitude to prove why he has been the leader of the Knicks locker room for so many years.

"Michael, let's work together."

Phil Jackson left the wall behind, lowered his arms, clenched his fists, and said firmly to Jordan.

Jordan raised his chin, and his eyes regained their brilliance. They were frighteningly bright, like a pair of small light bulbs. His firm willpower oppressed everyone's hearts through his eyes, making their hearts gather and giving them a backbone. When the morale of the Knicks was about to collapse, it stopped the collapse.

"Shaq, are you giving up?"

He turned around and stared at O'Neill abruptly, his eyes that seemed to be radiating light with strong pressure made O'Neill's heart beat wildly.

"I?"

O'Neal was speechless.

"He called you Xiaoyugan, and he called you Little Sardine. He said that this era belongs to him alone. Do you agree?" Jordan continued, staring at O'Neill.

"Hoho..."

O'Neill's breathing suddenly became heavy, as if an invisible boulder was suddenly pressed against his chest, forcing him to open his mouth to breathe.

"I'm not reconciled. Even if my time has passed and I'm old, I'm not reconciled. I will try my best to stop him. Even if I fail, I will admit it. And you, you have just entered your peak period, are you willing to be a loser now?" Jordan's voice continued to sound.

O'Neal kept recalling the scene of being crushed in the final quarter in his mind, and kept asking himself: "So what if I'm not reconciled? Can I stop him? Am I his opponent?"

Seeing O'Neill like this, Jordan suddenly became furious, stood up abruptly, stood in front of O'Neill, looked down at him, and roared sharply: "Trash! You are the real coward! You bastard! Don't you even have the courage to fight old K? Don't you even have the courage to face failure?
I regret coming here. All the insiders of the Bulls are more courageous than you. Even if they are broken by the old K, they will stand in front of the old K again. What about you? "

With a thud, O'Neill stood up.

He stared at Jordan angrily, panting like a cow, the blood in his chest was churning endlessly, and his whole fat face was as red as if it was about to bleed.

Jordan was touched by O'Neal, leaned back, and sat down on the floor.

He played too hard today, made too many breakthroughs, and consumed a lot of energy. It should be the biggest game of his career, and he couldn't stand anymore.

But he was very happy. O'Neill still knew how to be angry, and would still be angry. He knew that the shark could still be saved, and the Knicks still had hope.

……

When he woke up, Wang Tiejun opened his eyes, it was almost eleven o'clock.

The soreness from last night's game is still there, indicating that his body is still in a state of fatigue.

Yu Feihong came here twice with Dabao in the morning. Pharaoh didn't get up, and she didn't bother him. Now that he came here for the third time, he finally heard movement inside and knocked on the door quickly.

"Dad, big slob."

As soon as Lao Wang opened the door, Dabao yelled when he saw him. He bent down and pinched his son's chubby face, teasingly said, "Dabao, did you eat chicken legs in the morning?"

"I ate one."

Dabao opened his father's magic hand, and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't pinch my face, Sister Qianqian said, saying that my face is swollen, like a small washbasin."

"Ha ha……"

Lao Wang and his wife were amused by their son's words.

"It's almost lunch time, do you still have breakfast?" Yu Feihong asked after laughing.

"Forget it, I'll ask Gao Bin to come over and give me a massage." Lao Wang shook his head and said.

"Take this first."

Yu Feihong handed over a sandwich he had brought over.

Lao Wang took it and ate while calling Gao Bin to ask him to come over.

"I read today's news. Many media are saying that the league may abolish illegal defense and allow zone defense. Does this have a big impact on you?" Yu Feihong asked.

Lao Wang said: "The main effect is that I can double-team me in advance, prevent me from receiving the ball, and thus limit my offense."

"Then it has a great impact?" Yu Feihong asked in surprise.

Old Wang laughed and said, "Maybe, I'll only know after the fight."

"Aren't you worried?"

"Was it useful to worry about?"

At this time, Yu Feihong said again: "By the way, there is another theory that Pat Riley put forward, saying that the alliance should consider expanding the three-second zone again?"

"what?"

Lao Wang, who didn't respond to the zone defense just now, was surprised.

"Does this affect you more?"

"It will make me farther away from the basket, which will reduce my shooting percentage on the near two-point offense. In addition, the distance to attack the basket will be farther, and it will also increase the difficulty for me to attack the basket."

Lao Wang explained, and then said: "But once these rules are implemented, I am not the only one who will be restricted. All inside players will be restricted, and O'Neal is no exception. It is hard to say what effect it will have on the league in the end. The league should be very cautious in introducing these rules."

At this time Gao Bin came over and began to give him a medicated oil massage.

Dabao took Yu Feihong away, going to the martial arts gym, and leaving New York today, he wanted to say goodbye to his big friend, sister Sissy.

Lao Wang felt that he was going to set up a kindergarten in Los Angeles. Dabao had no playmates at home, and he often took him to the branch in Los Angeles, but there were no children there who were patient and willing to play with him, a kid.

After lunch at the hotel, the Lakers left New York and boarded a special plane back to Los Angeles.
