Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 102 The Suns are not what they used to be!
Twelve consecutive victories.

Is it still far from thirteen consecutive victories?
Not far away.

In the No.13 round of the regular season, the Lakers played against the Phoenix Suns.

This season, the Suns at this time are not what they used to be, and the lineup has been upgraded during the offseason.

The first stroke is a unique eye, and he took a fancy to the hacker Marion, who is ugly in appearance, ugly in shooting, ugly in nickname, but seriously underestimated in terms of physical talent and strength.

The second deal was to get Anifen Hardaway, known as Jordan's successor.

Although this person has undergone two operations on his left knee and suffered repeated injuries, he can still score 15 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds with his physical talent. Although the fuel tank has been leaking, there is still fuel in the fuel tank.

Partnering with Kidd, you can combine a super backcourt, the kind that can score 30 points, 15 assists and 15 rebounds.

The third is that head coach Danny Ainge dismissed get out of class, taking away his three-point shooting style not far from the playoffs, and assistant Scott Skiles took over.

Don't look at the bland name, there's something about this guy.

For example: In the future 07/08 season, the talented Bulls led by Skiles will have the third-worst record in the league. You must know that last season, the Bulls' youth team was still No.6 in the Eastern Conference. It was originally thought that next season Bulls that would take off, as a result, once returned to pre-liberation.

You said it was because of Kobe?

The Bulls were swayed and wanted Kobe, but because of the trade rumors, the mentality of that group of young talents collapsed.

It's none of the head coach's business!
Well, then it's not his credit for getting the No. [-] pick and signing Rose Rose of the Windy City. It's all Benzema's fault... no, Kobe's fault?

Um, is there such a thing?
This can have.

Anyway, this guy really has a way of leading a bad team. He led a team to the playoffs with the Bulls, and then went to the Bucks and Magic. He was able to play in the playoffs. He is known for his toughness and defense. The man with the clenched fist".

March 11, Phoenix, America West Arena.

After the simple appearance and warm-up, the starting lineups of both sides lined up and came to the center of the court.

The Lakers started with 5 players, Billups, Rice, Bowen, Big Ben, O'Neal.

The Suns started with the Five Tigers, point guard Kidd, shooting guard Hardaway, small forward Marion, power forward Clifford Robinson, and center Luke Langley.

beep~~
With the sound of the whistle, the basketball was thrown into the sky.

Snapped--!
O'Neal defeated the floor-flowing Langley and won the first offense for the Lakers.

Billups was forced by Kidd in the frontcourt, and it took a lot of effort to pass the ball to O'Neal.

In other words, O'Neal, who stepped forward before the game, offered to play for 48 minutes.

Li Mu asked him if he could stand it, and O'Neill claimed that if the opponent was 'Penny' Hardaway.

He can stand it.

The former partner and old friend came to the western theater, and O'Neill had this obligation.

Treat him well.

Say it word by word.

Bang-!
As soon as he caught the ball, O'Neill tried his best at the first hit, hit the Great Wall of Australia flying, turned around, and jumped up, ignoring Clifford Robinson's supplementary defense, with a bang, his whole body The body, hanging from the southeast branch, just wants Hardaway to smile.

2 to 0! !
Hardaway didn't laugh at O'Neal's dismount.

Kidd dribbles to the frontcourt and reaches out for the ball.

Then, Bowen had bad luck.

O'Neill started the war, but it was Bowen who suffered the disaster.

Accelerating, changing direction, exerting force on the knees, and taking the first extremely fast first step, after Hardaway's three-threatening posture, he directly relied on his physical talent to dominate.

Fortunately, compared to speed and face-to-basket attacks, Bowen can still keep up.

It's just that Hardaway, who went inside, no longer has Bowen in his eyes.

He didn't take the person he passed by to heart, but drew his bow and arrow, and shot a basket in front of O'Neal's desperate defense.

Swish-!
Jordan's successor did not come for nothing.

Hardaway's mid-range shot was accurate and hit a two-pointer.

The only shortcoming is that when breaking through, I have a little useless knee.

Everything else is picturesque.

2 to 2! !
Outside the arena, Li Mu nodded.

The Suns' perimeter is really very strong.

Even if Kobe is not absent, compared to the peak combat power, it may not be as good as the Suns' outside three Musketeers.

Fortunately, the Lakers have obvious advantages inside.

Moreover, O'Neill is very hardworking.

This is not.

In the next round, Billups continued to be pressed and gave the ball to Rice.

Facing rookie Marion, passing the ball to O'Neal is still easy to do.

Bang-!
O'Neal knocked the Australian kangaroo into the air, turned around and jumped up, with a bang, a dunk, and blasted the basketball into the basket.

4 to 2! !
On the commentary stage, Mike Brin shook his head. He still couldn't figure out why the Magic didn't keep O'Neal, but chose Hardaway.

"The sharks at the peak are terrible, they all use the same trick, and the pincer attack by Longley and Robinson still can't stop O'Neill's goal.

I really don't know what the general manager of the Magic is thinking? "

At this time, on the field, Hardaway gave the commentator the answer.

I saw that he exerted strength on his knees again, changed direction and rushed into the inside line, after attracting the sharks from the restricted area to swim out, he then sent the basketball into the sky.

Bang-dang-!
In the alley-oop, Langley ate at the basket and easily scored two points.

4 to 4! !
This is Hardaway's point forward style of play, which can break through, score, pass, turn around, and defend.

The style of the game is gorgeous and versatile, and one player can be used by several players.

O'Neal can only score, and it's really not worth a [-] million contract.

After all, O'Neal's grandma knows how to play, that is, hitting and dunking under the basket.

That's it.

How can sports tickets be sold?

Bang-dang-!
O'Neal and Hardaway took the lead and continued to dunk and abuse the basket, unstoppable.

Kidd intends to let Hardaway and O'Neal confront each other, willing to give up the ball.

He's not bad for this one.

Soon, Hardaway's breakthrough was flanked by the Lakers.

Kidd is known as "the base does not attack", and shorting is definitely profitable.

Marion looked talented, but he was a rookie.

There is no need to think about attacking Hardaway.

Hardaway attracted the pincers, pulled the ball up, flicked it in the air, and sent the basketball out of the line.

Kidd catches the ball, lifts the ball and takes aim, but misses.

A no-look pass to Marion on the weak side.

At this time, the fans and audience in the arena became active, and even couldn't help laughing.

Gangzhen, the league has a variety of shooting postures, and there are a large number of standard and beautiful players. Except for the picturesque shooting, there is nothing to see, the feeling is the same, and there is no feel.

The rookie Marion's shooting posture is a different kind of fireworks.

It looks very "weird", which can be described as "four different images". It doesn't look like what normal people can do. Just put your hands together and put the ball near your nose. "Peach" style, which will be called the first of the top ten ugliest shooting postures in the league in the future. This is definitely a "miracle of the league".

Marion caught the ball, shook his hands in front of his chest, and with a bang, the basketball hit the net.

Accurately hit the three-pointer.

O'Neal looked at Marion with his mouth open.

Off the court, Li Mu was also a little messy.

This Marion's shooting posture is ugly, but he can throw the ball into the basket with a casual throw.

What the hell is this unscientific!
The fans and audience also cheered and applauded. Some fans held their heads in disbelief.

On the field, Marion finished shooting, but his face was very calm.

Don't ask, the question is that his shooting is the most standard.

You call this shooting is the most standard?

Jordan, Miller, Ray Allen, etc., probably will laugh out loud.

You are serious, Sean!

That's right.

Because, this shooting posture was taught by his mother.

Not to mention, in fact, Marion's shooting posture is not fake, but unfortunately it is a standard women's shooting posture.

This is a typical women's [-]-style shooting. The advantage is that it saves effort. It is the favorite of beginners and does not accept rebuttals.

Moreover, because the release point is low, quick release is also a feature.

The future Curry, when he was a primary school student, used this shooting method to shoot three-pointers.

Abnormal accurate, fast as a knife, you deserve it!

In addition, this kind of shooting method is not straight, and it is the easiest to develop a weird style of play.

Come on, it's quite scary and coquettish!
who said it?
I said, Jesus came, I said it all.
