NBA: I just want to play soy sauce, you let me win the championship

Chapter 150 The Most Depressed Person in Staples
On the defensive end, the Kings finally stopped letting O'Neal do whatever he wanted.

Divac was the main defender, and Weber, Lu Yuanzhi and Turkoglu took turns double-teaming to help defend, causing O'Neal's offensive efficiency to continue to decline.

Seeing this situation, Kobe prepared to use his strength to share the pressure on the outside for O'Neal.

But before Kobe could exert his strength, Bibby was already crazy on the offensive end.

Divac, Webber, Turkoglu, and Lu Yuanzhi took turns covering for him, allowing him to enjoy the treatment of Iverson.

No, better treatment than Iverson!
Larry Brown only chanted slogans, and did not arrange any useful offensive tactics for Iverson to reduce the defensive intensity and pincers he encountered during the offense.

And Adelman not only arranged a lot of screens for Bibby, but also arranged for Webber, Lu Yuanzhi and Turkoglu to constantly run and pull to open up the offensive space for Bibby.

For this ball, after Lu Yuanzhi covered Bibby, he rushed to the inside quickly. Both George and Fisher's attention was attracted by Lu Yuanzhi. To Webber's pass three-point hit again.

On the next ball, Kobe smelled a hint of danger and decided to give Bibby more intensity. He no longer allowed Bibby to shoot. After the pick-and-roll, he and Fisher flanked Bibby. Bibby directly passed the ball to the man who ran out of the space. In the hands of Turkoglu, Turkoglu also hit from beyond the three-point line.

Kobe had to give up his plan to double-team Bibby.

The defensive intensity Bibby faced dropped again.

The Kings played around Bibby, moving further and further outside. O'Neal didn't experience much confrontation, but he didn't feel it was easier than in the last game, and he still consumed a lot of physical energy.

Because the Kings have been picking up speed this game.

For a heavy fat man, he may get tired if you fight against him.

But if you keep him sprinting and running, it will kill him!

O'Neal is in such an awkward situation now. On the offensive end, he has to be double-teamed by different Kings players, and everyone double-teams in different ways, which makes him very uncomfortable.

But waiting until the moment when the offense and defense switched was his most painful moment.

O'Neal never had the luxury of slowly retreating to his own half.

Every time, the Kings advance quickly. Now not only the readers in front of the mobile phone, but even the audience in front of the TV know that the first time the Kings got the ball, five people rushed to the Lakers half court first.

Do you want to talk about martial arts? Does the Kings play like this?
In the Staples Arena, there is one person who is more depressed than O'Neill, and that is actor Jack Nicholson.

He felt that he had misread.

During the regular season, he didn't pay attention to the Kings at all. He felt that the Kings were not worthy of being the opponent of the Lakers, so he didn't talk too much trash about the "polite" Chinese kid in the Kings.

But what he never expected was that the Chinese kid he "let go", No. 77 of the Kings, actually caused huge trouble to the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals.

Yes, fans watch the game, regardless of tactics, he only watches the scene.

What's the name of the kid wearing jersey No. 77?

Yes, Max Lu!
He not only made an alley-oop under Kobe's defense, but also dunked the omnipotent Shaq head-on!
This is the biggest trouble in the King's formation!

Jack Nicholson believes that he definitely doesn’t know tactics as well as the Lakers coaches and players, but he understands the “plot” better than everyone in the arena!

When the Kings needed to consolidate their defense, it was Max who stood up and interfered with Shaq and Kobe's shots.

When the Kings offense was frustrated and missed shots, it was Max who stepped up and rushed into the paint to score.

When the morale of the Kings was low and they dared not face Shaq, it was Max who stood up again, knocked Shaq down, and eliminated the demons of all members of the Kings.

You said, if the Western Conference finals were a movie, what role would Max be?
Protagonist!
It must be the protagonist!

To encourage teammates when the team is at a low ebb, and to stand up in times of crisis, isn't that the protagonist in the movie?

Look, the eyes of the masses are sharp!
All members of the Lakers team are still wary of Webber and Bibby, but Nicholson has long seen that Lu Yuanzhi is the protagonist.

Since Max is determined to be the "protagonist" of this Western Conference finals, Nicholson certainly wants to fulfill his duty as a die-hard Lakers fan, which is to interfere with Max off the court.

As for the protagonist of a movie, there will always be moments of confusion, and even Clark Kent will be affected by emotions, let alone this rookie kid?
Therefore, Nicholson's plan is simple. Let the rookie kid Max focus on exchanging trash talk with him and forget about the important responsibility he shoulders against the Lakers.

Before Nicholson's plan was implemented, he ran into the biggest trouble. The Kings didn't advance slowly!
The Kings offense is all running!
That Max didn't have time to come to the sidelines and get sprayed by himself!
How can this be tolerated?
Of course, after the Kings scored a goal, he still had the opportunity to go to Lu Yuanzhi to talk trash, because the Lakers were not advancing fast.

But Nicholson is not stupid. When someone else has just scored a goal, and he is very satisfied, isn't he asking for trouble by standing up and quarreling with others?
You jabbered a lot, but the other side responded with "Ah, yes, yes, we scored!"

Is this to troll someone or to troll someone?

Lakers fans who didn't know the truth in front of the TV were surprised to find that their actor Jack Nicholson didn't troll anyone during the game. They felt incredible and at the same time murmured in their hearts, could they really not beat the Kings? , why didn’t Nicholson speak harshly?

The front row of the Staples Arena is originally full of stars, but isn't everyone here to show their faces and increase their exposure?Who cares how the ball is played!
Originally, Nicholson had high prestige and rich resources in Hollywood. The stars who came to show their faces wanted to give him face and join him in cheering for the Lakers and spraying the visiting team together.

But today Nicholson actually died down, and everyone lost their leader, so what should we do?
What can I do, make cold salad!
It's right to have a beautiful concave shape in front of the camera!
The absent-minded front row, the Kings, who only know speed and outside shots, are forced to be giant Shaqs running up and down the court.

Everything on the court has become so strange.

This is not the NBA I am familiar with!

Kobe Bryant looked at the scoreboard and his eyelids twitched again.

64 points!
Before the end of the first half, the Kings scored 64 points!
What did they do?Actually got 64 points!
This scoring efficiency, this scoring method is even more unfamiliar to the cauliflower snake.

What's wrong with this world?
Why in the Western Conference finals, there are still teams that dare to shoot from the outside.

Their outside shots are not particularly accurate!
Why is this team that can shoot from the outside still leading!

Something strange must have happened that I couldn't understand.

But it doesn't matter, now the Lakers are only 10 points behind and there is still enough time in the second half to chase points.

I'm going to take action, I can't just rely on that lazy fat guy Shaq.

Kobe quietly made up his mind as he walked toward the tunnel.

　Sorry, brothers, I had something important to do in the morning, so I delayed it until now. The update is late!
