Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 71 The Shark is Angry, and the Consequences Are Serious!
The Lakers lost their winning streak.

Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief, the players felt less burdened, and their faces felt more relaxed.

Of course, this is not the most important thing. The important thing is that Ao Pang is very angry, and the consequences are very serious!

After being spoiled by the Blazers for the Lakers' perfect season, the rest of the game, Angry Sharks, was pretty scary.

For example, in 94, O'Neal lost the scoring champion. In 95, the angry O'Neal won the scoring champion and led the team to the finals by the way.

In Li Mu's previous life, in the 98/99 season, that is, this year, he also lost the scoring champion. Moreover, David Robinson relied on Duncan to climb over his head and won the championship first.

In the second year, O'Neal played at his peak. He won the scoring champion, regular season MVP, and finals MVP.

In 05, in order to avenge Kobe, O'Neal also played a dominant performance.

The MVP of the regular season that year only lost to Nash, who had mediocre statistics.

In addition, Kobe, who doesn't like to lose, also got the revenge script.

Therefore, in the next game, the opponents of the Lakers will be unlucky.

Next, the Grizzlies, Warriors, Spurs, Rockets, Trail Blazers, etc., 7 teams, failed to stop the anger of the Lakers and were defeated.

Los Angeles, Great Western Forum.

July 5, night.

In the final game of the regular season of the 98/99 season, the Lakers faced the Trail Blazers, the opponent that gave them their only defeat.

Li Mu dispatched an attacking lineup to attack with all his might.

Billups, Kobe, Rice, Horry, O'Neal.

Not surprisingly, this game will be the last game of the regular season for the Lakers in this arena.

After playing this season's playoffs, the Lakers will move the main arena to the Staples Center, which will become ancient.

As the last battle of the regular season at the Great Western Forum Arena, he still faced opponents who had defeated him.

Therefore, in order to repay the fans, the Trail Blazers must die!
The Lakers have only one word: kill!

From the very beginning, the Lakers were murderous and desperate to attack.

In the first quarter of the game, the outside line was the first to open the situation.

Rice hit three three-pointers in a row, and it rained three-pointers with Horry.

Kobe and Billups also tried three-pointers.

Although, their accuracy was not enough, and the sound of iron strikes still scared the Trail Blazers enough.

The Lakers opened up the outside firepower, and the Trail Blazers did not dare to shrink the inside tightly. Then, O'Neal got the offensive space, tossed the water in the penalty area, and ravaged the basket.

After the first quarter, the score was 34 to 21, and the Lakers took an 13-point lead.

In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers will play Rasheed, O'Neal Jr., Jim Jackson, Kevin Cato, and Bunch Wells in rotation.

Relying on the performance of this group of titans, the Trail Blazers did regain a lot of points and beat the Lakers to a 27-21 offensive.

However, at the beginning of the third quarter, the Lakers no longer gave the Trail Blazers any chance.

Bang-!
O'Neal received the ball, opened the space, turned around and picked up the basket. With a bang, his whole body hung on the basket.

O'Neal took the lead and took the lead in charging.

When the Trail Blazers pinched O'Neal, O'Neal scored the ball out of the baseline.

Rice catches the ball for a [-]-pointer...

Swish-!
Rice's three-pointer tonight felt very hot.

Next, the offensive firepower of the Lakers has never been broken. They hit the Blazers with a 39-19 shock wave and took the game away in an instant.

In the fourth quarter, it was just a cutscene, and the Lakers were still expanding their score.

hum~~
Following the scoreboard, a beep sounded and the red light flashed once, and the score was frozen.

At the end of the game, the score was 119 to 91. The Lakers beat the Trail Blazers by 28 points and won the final game of the regular season.

O'Neal scored 27 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists, miraculously playing a quasi-triple-double performance.

Kobe's performance in this game was mediocre, with only 17 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists.

表现最为惊艳的是莱斯，20投14中，三分球10投8中，罚球4中4，轰下了40分5篮板3助攻。

There is no doubt that he is the absolute protagonist of the Great Western Forum tonight.

However, after the game, media reporters swarmed around O'Neal with long guns and short cannons.

"Shaq, if there is no accident, you will become the scoring leader this year. How do you feel?"

"Shaq, you are now the No. 1 candidate for the MVP candidate in the regular season, and you can even take the candidate away. May I ask how you feel at this time?"

"..."

O'Neill smiled and answered the reporters' questions one by one, even with a bit of humor.

"Not by accident, but for sure, I'm going to be the leading scorer this year.

Of course, I now average 31.5 points per game. If Iverson scores 200 points, I think I, the scoring leader, will fly by accident.

Just like in 94 and 98, the last game, I lost what should belong to me. "

O'Neill spread his hands, "I don't think God will always be against me!

It's time for me to win it all. "

"The mood is naturally very refreshing, but the journey of the Lakers is not over yet.

I will continue to work hard, just to kill the bastards who want to block my progress! "

"..."

……

The Lakers ranked first in the regular season with a record of 49 wins and 1 loss.

No. 2 in the West is the late-start Spurs, with a record of 36 wins and 14 losses.

No. 3 in the West is the Trail Blazers with 35 wins and 15 losses.

The Jazz also scored 35 wins and 15 losses. Because they fell behind in the mutual record with the Blazers, they could only rank No.4.

The remaining 4 to 8 are the Rockets, Kings, Dayang, and Timberwolves.

In the Eastern Theater, the Heat ranked first in the Eastern Conference with a record of only 33 wins and 17 losses.

A pattern in which the west is strong and the east is weak has begun to emerge.

Next, in the upper half of the East, the rankings are Pacers, Magic, and Eagles.

Bottom half: Pistons, 76ers, Bucks, Knicks.

After the regular season is over, the matchup table and schedule for the playoffs are also officially released.

Western theater:

The Lakers played against the Timberwolves.

Spurs vs. Suns.

Trail Blazers vs. Kings.

Jazz vs. Rockets.

Eastern theater:

Heat vs. Knicks.

Pacers vs. Bucks.

Magic vs. 76ers.

Eagles vs. Pistons.

The first round of the playoffs will start on May 5.

The first round of the playoffs for the Lakers will start on April 5.

Therefore, Li Mu and the Lakers still have 4 days to rest and prepare.

First of all, it is natural to determine the 12-man roster for the playoffs.

In Li Mu's heart, there was already a candidate.

Point guard: Billups, Harper, Fisher.

Shooting guard: Kobe, Curry.

Small forwards: Bowen, Rice, Fox.

Power Forward: Big Ben, Horry.

Center: O'Neal, Brad Miller.

The one who was excluded was Lewis, who played 29 games and averaged 3.1 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game.

He was injured in the middle and had little opportunity to perform after his comeback.

Sean Lukes is the patron saint of Kanshuiji, and his playing time is pitiful, and he was originally used to make up the numbers.

Looking at the neat lineup and seeing the "best lineup" in his heart, Li Mu couldn't wait any longer!
