All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

The Raptors, who don't have a meat shield center, even if they resolutely adopt a flanking tactic against O'Neal, the effect may not be as good as that of the Jazz.

Because the key to the Jazz's flanking tactics is that Ostertag can use his size to limit O'Neal's receiving area to the low post as much as possible.

And once O'Neal catches the ball in the low post, even the Jazz back then couldn't stop this fat-headed fish.

Because unlike forwards and defenders like Su Feng and Jordan, if you flank O'Neal in the low post, the result is likely to be a 2 plus 1 by this guy.

Therefore, on the court, when O'Neal scored two consecutive attacks, firstly to avoid too many fouls on Ben Ben, and secondly to mess with O'Neal's mentality, Davis decisively changed into a "professional shark chopper" "Williams.

ha! ?

Is there a job agency term for "shark chop"?

Of course there is.

Before the game, in order to study how to "chopping sharks" in a reasonable, scientific and sustainable way, Williams conducted a lot of exercises with his teammates.

As one of the founders of the Bulls dynasty in the past, after winning three championships with Boss Joe that year, Williams has been adhering to the career philosophy of "one stroke at a time, healthier".

However, this season, under the "sweet smell" of Boss Joe, Williams, who felt like he had regained his youth, discovered that...

His original intention has always been there.

On the court, after the Raptors completed their substitutions, the game continued.

As soon as he came up, Williams showed what it means to be a professional.

The moment O'Neal received the pass from his teammate, Williams, who felt that he could not compete with O'Neal in the low post, hugged O'Neal directly.

It seems that anyone can foul O'Neal.

But in fact, because O'Neal is extremely flexible, as long as you don't grasp the timing of your foul well, you can easily be scored by him with the ball.

The timing of Williams' foul just now was perfect.

Even in order to prevent the referee from not seeing his foul, Williams deliberately found a perspective where the referees could notice him.

On the court, because the Raptors' number of fouls had not yet reached, O'Neal's ball did not form an attack frame, so the Lakers continued to serve sideline balls.

As a result, although O'Neal, who was a little confused, received the pass from his teammate this time, his hesitation also gave Su Feng, the flanker, the opportunity to flank him.

Before O'Neal can get into the low post, the Raptors' double-teaming tactics can achieve the greatest benefits by double-teaming O'Neal at a certain distance from the basket.

Because even O'Neal cannot complete one-on-two in this position.

After all, under Su Feng's harassment, O'Neal couldn't even dribble or post-up in this position. He couldn't just throw Su Feng away with an elbow, right?

Wake up, if you do that, you will be called for an offensive foul.

In desperation, O'Neal, who was holding the ball with both hands, chose to pass the ball to Rice, who was standing on the outside.

However, just as Rice was posing and preparing to use a three-pointer to punish the Raptors, Su Feng, who had just been harassing O'Neal under O'Neal's elbow, had already rushed in front of Rice.

With the flanking location chosen well, Su Feng's shot demonstrated his amazing ability to defend against two opponents.

Although Rice still completed the shot in front of Su Feng, he was frightened by Su Feng's defensive speed, but his movements were deformed when he shot.

When——!

In the penalty area, Ben, who no longer had to hold up O'Neal, breathed fresh air while protecting the rebound for the Raptors.

On the court, the Raptors took advantage of the trend to counterattack, and the "old gangster" took the lead. On the Lakers' side, Kobe, who retreated the fastest, was confused.

Because looking at Su Feng, Tracy McGrady, and Jordan who were responsible for dribbling the ball at the same time, Kobe hated himself at this moment because he didn't have the shadow clone skill and couldn't defend one against three.

At the last moment, Kobe, who was extremely troubled, chose to block Su Feng's quick exit route.

So, Jordan, who was dribbling forward, flicked his hands, and on the other side, McGrady jumped high and dunked in an alley-oop.

Bang-dang——!

8 to 10!

TNT TV station, Smith said: "The Raptors played a textbook defensive counterattack. I think those who think that the league awarded Su the best defensive player just to praise Su can shut up.

Because if Su is not worthy of the best defensive player, then I really can't think of anyone else in the current league who is worthy of the best defensive player. "

According to CCTV, Director Zhang said: "It looks like McGrady was the one who finally completed the alley-oop on this ball, but in fact, without Su Feng's defense, the Raptors' counterattack would have been impossible."

On the side, Su Junyang also smiled and said: "This is also the reason why Su Feng was able to win the regular season MVP. This season, his performance on both offense and defense on the court has conquered everyone."

In front of the TV, Riley regretted it.

Why are you so mean-spirited that you insist on turning on the TV to watch the finals to find abuse?

At the Canada Route Center Arena, Carter, who was replaced by Williams, noticed that McGrady had dunked twice tonight, and his body had begun to tremble uncontrollably.

On the bench, Davis, who noticed Carter's strong desire to fight, smiled and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, Vince, I will replace you soon."

On the court, looking back, the "Zen Master" who likes to let his players adjust themselves continues to practice Zen.

But this time, "professional shark chopper" Williams completed a more exquisite shark chop.

In the low post, the moment O'Neal turned around to attack the frame, Williams, who had quick eyes and quick hands, used all his strength to directly cut off O'Neal's attack with a "hand knife".

And even a strong man like O'Neal couldn't help but widen his eyes at this moment.

I...

My arms are swollen from your beating, brother!

Look, what is professional shark killing?

The professional shark-killing thing is that if you are not ruthless when attacking, then you can only have O'Neal riding on your head and wreaking havoc.

Beep!

In this way, Williams, who received his second foul, successfully sent O'Neal to the free throw line.

Compared with O'Neal's efficient low-post attack, the moment he completed the attack, he could turn his two points that were guaranteed into free throws...

It has to be said that Williams really put a lot of effort into how to chop sharks.

On the court, the moment O'Neal stepped to the free throw line, Canadian fans in the Airline Center Arena also booed in unison.

Before the game, O'Neal deliberately practiced extra free throws because he knew that the Raptors would 100% kill the Sharks.

but......

On the first penalty, O'Neal made three no-touches.

In Su Feng's original time and space, O'Neal's free throw shooting in the playoffs was worse than his regular season.

Especially in the two seasons of 1998/99 and 99/00, O'Neal's free throw shooting rate in the playoffs was not even 47%.

Because the confrontation in the playoffs is more intense, it can easily lead to deformation of players' technical movements in the game.

And O'Neal, who was originally a natural free throw shooter, became even more difficult to hit accurately after various physical fights.

Tonight is extremely critical for O'Neal, who has reached the finals for the second time in his career.

After all, at 27 years old, he is no longer young.

And before, when ESPN ranked O'Neal first among the new top four centers, many experts were talking about the broom O'Neal received in the playoffs.

Therefore, in terms of desire to win, O'Neal's desire to win is definitely no less than that of Su Feng and Jordan.

However, O'Neal's free throws were his Achilles' heel.

On the second free throw, O'Neal took three deep breaths calmly before shooting the basketball.

Then......

When——!

As we all know, in basketball, the only difference between a missed free throw and a turnover is that you successfully caused a foul on one of your opponent's players.

However, as a "professional shark chopper", what if Williams was sent off for six fouls?

One of him fell, and there are thousands of him on the Raptors bench!

On the court, Ben, who grabbed the rebound, handed the ball to Jordan, and Boss Joe launched another transition attack.

And this time, the Raptors also revealed their true colors tonight.

In the opening trial period, the Raptors' fast break was a bit conservative, but after ending the opening trial, the Raptors were going to run to the end tonight.

In Su Feng's previous life, even if O'Neal was astonishingly powerful, it was impossible for the Lakers to leave it to him to solve every attack.

Because if you really let this fat-headed fish gouge you forty or fifty times, he might fall down first before the Raptors can figure out a way to deal with him.

At his peak, O'Neal's playing time in the Finals was often full, but in fact, he spent a lot of time on the court playing and resting.

The Raptors made up their mind tonight, mainly to consume O'Neal's physical energy.

When retreating, O'Neal's weight makes it impossible for him to retreat every time.

In addition, in order to save physical energy, in Jackson's tactics, O'Neal rarely took the initiative to rush to the outside.

So, with this ball, Jordan, who noticed that O'Neal was still retreating, threw the ball directly into McGrady's hands.

When——!

Even though McGrady failed to hit a three-pointer, O'Neal, who had just retreated to the Lakers' defensive zone, now had to run back to the Raptors' half again...

For the Raptors, it's okay even if they fail to make a three-pointer in this fast-break transition, but for the Lakers, if they keep running with the Raptors...

On the Lakers' bench, Jackson was distraught at the moment.

Because even in terms of on-the-spot adaptability, "Zen Master" thinks that he is not as good as John Davis, but if the fight continues like this, no matter how slow "Zen Master" is in adapting to situations, he will know very well...

The Lakers are an absolute pill.

Beep——!

On the court, "Professional Shark Slasher" Williams once again fouled O'Neal, who was preparing to hit hard.

This time, although Williams failed to prevent O'Neal from completing the shot, O'Neal, who had just made a turnaround, unfortunately missed the "two plus one" opportunity.

Taking advantage of the free throw, O'Neal quickly adjusted his breathing.

Because the instantaneous consumption of a basketball game is very high, even professional players have to slow down after running back and forth for a few laps.

However, I don’t know if it was because the adjustment time was too long, but O’Neal’s two free throws...

Still missed.

And even worse than missing free throws is the Raptors' damn transition offense...

Tired again!

If you have practiced sprinting and long-distance running, you can probably understand O'Neal's mood at this moment.

Many times, many naive children always think that after sprinting 100 meters with all their strength, they will not be as tired as running 1,000 meters, but...

Don’t believe it when I tell you. In terms of physical exertion, sometimes sprinting with all your strength to finish 100 meters is not much easier than running 1,000 meters.

Therefore, for O'Neal, who had just regained his breath, asking him to withdraw immediately at this moment was almost the same as killing him.

And in this situation where there is not enough rest, continuing to run back and forth with the Raptors will undoubtedly further increase O'Neal's physical exhaustion.

On the court, the Raptors hit the ball more quickly.

After using a look to deceive Kobe, Su Feng sneaked into the high post and took the ball.

This season, after staying in the sewer for a long time, Jordan likes to pass the ball to Su Feng. The most important reason is because Su Feng doesn't like spitting cakes.

Swish——!

Assists are obtained, and three-pointers are also available!

8 to 13.

In the Lakers' penalty area, O'Neal, who had just retreated, was tired and tired.

After missing four consecutive free throws and running back and forth, O'Neal was physically and mentally exhausted at this moment.

It was the Lakers' turn to attack. On the court, Harper, who saw that O'Neal needed a moment of rest, hurriedly handed the ball to Kobe.

After transforming into a super button dubber in the opening game, Kobe was also in a tangle in order to win.

That’s all!

How could he, a great Los Angeles magician, be so incapable of picking up and letting go?

Sue, Tracey, Vince…

You all just wait for me!

This season, in addition to the arrival of "Zen Master" liberating O'Neal, Kobe's paranoia in passing is also the reason why the Lakers were able to go all the way to the finals.

In the early days of his career, Kobe, who was not yet proficient in back-up play, originally had many shortcomings, but now, wearing the magician's coat, he...

In a five-on-five situation, even Su Feng couldn't predict his offensive route.

On the outside, when Rice received Kobe's no-look pass, the Lakers fans in front of the TV instantly climaxed.

On the Raptors bench, John Davis has already started praying.

No idea.

Davis knew very well that with Kobe playing such an outstanding performance, the Raptors had no other option but to pray that other Lakers players couldn't make shots.

As a result, I don't know if Rice was "cursed" by Davis. Anyway, he shot this wide open shot quite outrageously.

Rice, who usually shoots nearly 40% of his three-pointers, actually made a "cross-the-bridge" shot.

Su Feng, who received Rice's "pass" at the baseline, silently gave the Lakers player a big thumbs up.

Worthy of being a Laker player!

Sure enough, as long as you are the Lakers' opponent, you can always trust the Lakers' "other players."

In Su Feng's previous life, during the 1998/99 season, Rice, who was transformed into a spot-up shooter, was unable to regain his accuracy that season due to his lack of practice during the lockout.

Therefore, opportunities will only come to those who are prepared.

Due to historical changes, this Lakers reached the Finals a year early, but in terms of preparation for this season, how can they surpass the Raptors?

Compared with the fat-headed fish who made a huge comeback in the 1999/00 season, O'Neal is still lagging behind in both physical fitness and condition.

Compared with the championship tool man who shot more than 60% of three-pointers in the 1999/00 finals, Rice is an out-and-out blacksmith.

At the Canada Flight Center Arena, under the Raptors' wave after wave of attacks, the score between the two teams was quickly pulled to 15-25.

At this time, there were still 4 minutes left before the end of the first quarter.

On the Lakers' bench, Jackson, who finally took a timeout, felt that the physical reserves of the Raptors and Lakers were not at the same level at all.

And what makes Jackson even more headache is...

After the timeout ended, the Raptors completed a wave of three ups and three downs... ah, three ups and three downs.

Smith, Carter, and Nash replaced Jordan, McGrady, and Williams respectively.

It’s more than just physical reserves.

In terms of reserves of substitute personnel, this Raptors is also far above the Lakers.

At this moment, looking at the Lakers' bench, "Zen Master" suddenly felt an emotion called despair.

Young Lewis and Wang Zhizhi still need time to level up.

And Fisher, who is familiar with "Scheming", can change it and play a dozen, but...

On the court, just after "Zen Master" made the decision to use Fisher to replace veteran Harper, it didn't take long for "Zen Master" to regret it...

Because unlike veteran Harper, who is good at defense and can misplace the opponent's shooting guard, who does Fisher scare with his height of "185" centimeters?

Tonight, the Raptors have not been able to take advantage of the point guard's dislocation to attack Harper. This is because Harper, who is 193 centimeters tall, has returned to his old age, but his experience is still there as he has been selected to the All-Defensive Team twice.

But Fisher?

In the Airline Center Arena, with the help of Nash, Su Feng, who switched to Fisher again and again, used his ruthless iron elbows to directly crush Fisher's "leg-hugging dream."

If you can't attack or defend, you'll have to be consumed by the Raptors for nothing.

At the end of the first quarter, the score of the two teams had been rewritten to 20-34.

On the Lakers bench, during the break, after taking a peek at the technical statistics on the scoreboard, Kobe, covered with a towel, remained silent.

14 points, 2 rebounds, 1 block, 1 steal. UU reading www. ukanshu.net

Recalling Su Feng's statistics in the first quarter, at this moment, Kobe felt that he had been separated by a large distance from his high school classmates.

On the Raptors bench, Su Feng, who was enjoying a massage from his teammates, fell silent for a while after taking a peek at the technical statistics on the scoreboard.

6 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal.

Recalling Kobe's statistics in the first quarter, Su Feng discovered at this moment that no matter how hard he tried, Kobe could always catch up with him.

And, if Kobe continues to be paranoid...

In this life, Kobe will only become more and more difficult to deal with.

"Sure enough, my efforts are far from enough!"

On the bench between the Lakers and Raptors, on this day, Su Feng and Kobe expressed this emotion in their hearts at the same time.
