Super Legendary Superstar

In the second game of the Finals, the Lakers were unable to retreat. The situation was somewhat similar to the 2001 Finals between the Lakers and the 76ers. The invincible Lakers were first defeated by their opponents and then fought back. Will history repeat itself? Will the Lakers easily reverse the Pistons again just like they did against the 76ers?

Most football players don't think so.

Stephen A. Smith of ESPN expressed his opinion on this, saying that the Pistons will bring huge trouble to the Lakers. The Lakers are no longer the passionate and talented team they were when they first won the championship. The OK combination is no longer united. Karl Malone The weaknesses of Gary Payton and Gary Payton in the finals were clearly demonstrated, and the substitutes were unable to do their best. The only one, Sun Zhuo, was quite satisfactory, but Sun Zhuo's dozen points per game would definitely not be able to influence the game.

In the previous life, the Lakers won the second game, but it was very difficult to win.

With only 7 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers were still 3 points behind the Pistons. On the last attack, Kobe stepped up to save the team and hit a life-saving three-pointer, dragging the game into overtime and narrowly winning. Had a game.

That was also the only game the Lakers won in the Finals. If Kobe was not so lucky and missed that shot, then the powerful F4 Lakers back then would have been swept out by the civilian Pistons!

"The second game won't be easy either. We must try our best to win. Once we lose this game, I'm afraid I will have to use the Repeat Challenge Card in this game." Sun Zhuo also changed when he thought about the possibility of using the Repeat Challenge Card in this game. Gotta get serious.

The Pistons' top five walked onto the court again. The faces of Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace, Hamilton and others already showed the confidence that was not shown in the first game. After winning a game, they are no longer afraid of the Lakers. What? The Big Five are nothing more than that!

The Lakers still played around O'Neal from the beginning. O'Neal's fiery state is still unabated, and he will definitely put in the goals that should be scored. He knows that Kobe is competing with him for this year's FMVP, so he will only work harder on the offensive end.

O'Neal and Kobe cannot be completely restricted by any team. The Lakers lost to others in the last game, especially the bench, so the performance of the Lakers' bench today is crucial.

Luke Walton was entrusted with an important task today, and his father Bill Walton also came to the scene, looking forward to his son's performance in the finals. Luke Walton did not disappoint his father.

Luke Walton's performance on the court was amazing. He hit every shot without missing a single shot, and he could also break through and create opportunities to feed the ball to the inside. The Lakers had never seen him perform so well before.

In fact, Luke Walton performed very well in this game in his previous life. He made 5 of 5 and had 8 assists. It is the same today. Sun Zhuo, who is also a rookie, has good statistics in every game. How can Luke Walton? Can you still stay in the novice stage?

Because of Sun Zhuo's encouragement, Luke Walton has also made great progress this year.

"Luke Walton has a tendency to try to start with me!" Since Luke Walton performed very well on the court, Sun Zhuo's playing time was delayed and reduced. Naturally, Sun Zhuo didn't mind, but he said casually. joke.

Phil Jackson was also very happy, smiled and said: "Sun, this is your credit. Bill Walton once told me that Luke has always regarded you as a target. Your success in your rookie season gave him a lot of motivation. Lu He has been working hard and today is the result of his hard work.”

Sun Zhuo didn't expect that he would join this Lakers and promote the growth of rookie Luke Walton, which can be considered a good thing.

However, no matter how well Luke Walton plays, he can't replace Sun Zhuo. Sun Zhuo's single-corner three-point threat is something Walton can't compare with. As long as Sun Zhuo is on the court and roams around the bottom corner, The defensive players must always keep an eye on Sun Zhuo and cannot rush to support other players defending the Lakers. In addition, once a successful breakthrough is made, Sun Zhuo can dunk directly over the head of Double Wallace, and Luke Walton Just choose to pass the ball.

Luke Walton's outstanding performance allowed the Lakers to start to lead the Pistons by some points. After Sun Zhuo returned, he also hit a corner three-pointer to continue to expand the score.

But the Pistons were the Pistons, and they were too tenacious. Soon Billups hit two three-pointers in a row and once again put on an iron-blooded defense to make the score close again.

"Billups is really a troublesome guy. If you want to win the championship, you must successfully contain him." Sun Zhuo forgot what Billups's average number was in the finals that year. He seemed to be in his early 20s. It looks like that, but Sun Zhuo remembers that each of the Pistons' five tigers averaged double figures in points per game. Among them, Billups, as the team's point guard, made a huge contribution. Only a good enough point guard can give the ball away. The team played so well and in such a balanced manner.

Phil Jackson gave Sun Zhuo more rights to dominate the ball in the Finals, and Sun Zhuo felt that he should learn from the point guard.

Sun Zhuo will remember every pass and every assist by Billups, trying to understand Billups's thoughts. In this way, if he really needs to do it again today, Sun Zhuo can cut off the connection between Billups and his teammates, and easily win.

Fortunately, the Lakers are very strong, especially Kobe. There was a big explosion in the fourth quarter, scoring 33 points and winning the victory with a slight advantage of 5 points.

The Lakers and Pistons tied 1:1. This time, there was no overtime.

After winning the game, Kobe shouted excitedly. It was not easy to win this game, but he did it and scored the highest score in the game. In addition to the 25 points in the previous game, Kobe now leads the Lakers in scoring per game. The tallest player, he already has an advantage over O'Neal in the FMVP competition.

O'Neal was also very happy to win this game, but he was not as excited as Kobe. He scored 28 points in this game, averaging points per game. Kobe is currently a little ahead. O'Neal knows that in the next few games, Kobe will Will also try to surpass him.

Sun Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief, and finally did not need to use the repeated challenge card at home. Even though he was robbed of some playing time by Luke Walton today, he made many three-pointers and scored 16 points.

Judging from Sun Zhuo's data in the current two games, he does not pose any threat to O'Neal and Kobe.

After the game, O'Neal took the initiative to go home with Sun Zhuo, on the pretext that he wanted to see Sun Zhuo's beautiful agent with a proud figure. However, when he arrived at Sun Zhuo's house, O'Neal did not ask Sun Zhuo to call Emma. Obviously, O'Neal is here for other reasons.

"Sun, I feel something bad is about to happen." At Sun Zhuo's house, the two of them were eating steak, and O'Neal suddenly spoke seriously.

"What's going on?" Sun Zhuo looked at O'Neal.

"That black mamba is coming to steal my FMVP!" O'Neal's face showed fear, as if he really saw a snake attacking.
