Chapter 91 The big shark is coming

"Zhang Wei, can you tell me about Wang Hao? From today on, I am Wang Hao's fan!"

Hearing this, Zhang Wei, who has the most common name in the country, couldn't help but wanted to make a complaint.

"Bah, do you like basketball? You are obviously greedy for other people's bodies. Can you please stop insulting basketball?"

However, Zhang Wei finally endured it. After all, this was one of the few opportunities to talk to the goddess.

What if?

Ever since CCTV started broadcasting Sonics games live, this situation has been happening constantly.

The number of Wang Hao's fans in China is also growing day by day.

Far away in Seattle, Zhang Lili's interview with Wang Hao is still continuing.

Zhang Lijia: "Wang Hao, we all know that this game is very important for both teams.

Because it involves the battle for the top spot, are you confident about today’s game?”

"Of course, we are full of confidence in this game because Kobe is injured and the Lakers are just a disabled team now.

Under such circumstances, I think it would be unimaginable if we cannot win the game."

Wang Hao's words actually mean the same thing. They can't win against the remnant Lakers and they have no confidence.

So how can the Sonics have the nerve to occupy the top spot? Sooner or later, they will be kicked off.

"It seems that everyone in the Sonics team is very confident, so can you tell us what preparations are in place?"

There must be preparations, but I definitely can't say it.

"There are no special preparations, just follow the previous tactics and fight normally!"

…

The interview has ended and the competition is about to begin.

"Beep!"

As the referee's whistle blows, the game begins.

Without any suspense, O'Neal grabbed the jump ball extremely easily, and the Lakers took the lead in attacking.

Horace Grant caught up with O'Neal immediately, and today he has the task of guarding O'Neal.

If Wen Baker really had to defend him, he would probably be blown up directly.

It is also difficult for Horace to guard O'Neal, but he can restrict him. As a former Magic teammate, he is still very familiar with O'Neal.

In addition to O'Neal, the other four starters for the Lakers are fishermen Fisher and Ron Harper.

Ron Harper is an important part of the Bulls' second three-peat dynasty, and he is also a defensive expert.

As for the forwards, they are Glen Rice and AC Green. Defending Glen Rice will be the focus today.

Because O'Neal can't guard him, he can only cut off the connection between O'Neal and his teammates.

After all, this is the limitation of every inside player, who needs to rely on outside players to pass the ball.

A few years ago, why did the Lakers fail to perform well? Was it because O'Neal didn't perform well enough?

Obviously not. In the past few years, O'Neal has proven to everyone that he is the number one center in the league.

Because no one on the Lakers can help him.

Whether it's Glen Rice or Eddie Jones, they all need O'Neal to involve defensive pressure and help them play better.

But they couldn't take the initiative to help O'Neal. Only when Kobe came back did O'Neal relieve the pressure.

To put it bluntly, Glenn Rice and Eddie Jones do not have the offensive ability to force their opponents to change their defense.

Kobe was injured, and the Lakers today are just like in previous years, O'Neal has to bear the pressure.

Unless O'Neal scores 40 or even 50 points by himself today, otherwise, he alone cannot beat the Sonics.

Sure enough, the Lakers' first offense was to look for O'Neal.

Horace was not polite and directly defended. Facing O'Neal, there was no shame in doing so.

If you are blindly confident and choose to confront O'Neal head-on, the end result will only be that O'Neal will destroy the basket again and again.

On the other side, Gary Payton also stepped forward to press in time, making it difficult for Fisher to get out.

There was no other way, Fisher could only transfer the ball to the other side along the three-point line.

This is also the Lakers' tactic, specifically breaking down Rao's front defense and passing the ball to O'Neal.

As early as the previous moment, O'Neal had already arrived on the other side of the backboard and was occupying his position.

At this time, Horace was already blocked behind O'Neal, and it was too late to defend.

After O'Neal got the ball, he immediately lowered his waist to dribble, and then squeezed hard from behind.

Horace couldn't hold O'Neal at all and was easily squeezed away. He watched helplessly as O'Neal dunked.

A powerful dunk, O'Neal didn't even pull the basket, but Wang Hao could still clearly hear the sound of the entire basketball stand shaking.

Horace is actually not that thin, but facing the huge O'Neal, he simply can't bear it.

Forget it if you can't carry it, but despite O'Neal's huge weight, he still has flexible steps and super explosive power.

I have to say, it’s outrageous!

O'Neal looked very excited after the successful dunk. He accurately found the camera and was ready to celebrate in a funny way.

Unexpectedly, two figures, one on the left and one on the right, ran past, and they turned out to be Horace and Wen Baker.

On the other side, Gary Payton is still dribbling across half court.

This is the second tactic prepared by the Sonics, which is to play fast and try to increase the speed.

In fact, this is also the method most teams will adopt when facing the Lakers and O'Neal.

However, this is not the small ball era after all, and bombardment tactics have not yet been fully implemented.

Even the Mavericks are just speeding up, avoiding meaningless waste of time, and speeding up the pace.

In this era, simply increasing the speed will often destroy the team's own rhythm.

However, when facing a player of O'Neal's level, sometimes you have to block him.

Seeing Horace and Vin Baker rushing across the half court, O'Neal was stunned for a moment, but immediately returned to defense.

However, at this time, after Gary Payton rushed through half court, faced with Fisher's pressure, he immediately chose to pass the ball.

Because at this time, Wang Hao had already gotten rid of Glen Rice's defense and cut into the inside.

There was no way, the offense had just ended, the Lakers' defense was not in place yet, everything was in chaos.

When Ron Hubble saw it, he immediately shrank from the basket to defend, but saw Wang Hao swing his arm lightly and pass the ball.

Brent Barry just happened to catch up. He received the ball one step before the free throw line and jumped up high, showing what it means that white people can fly!

"boom!"

The atmosphere of the fans at the scene was instantly ignited. They bombed the basket twice at the beginning. What could be more exciting than this?

But at this time, O'Neal arrived belatedly.

Looking at the basketball that had already entered the basket, O'Neal felt bad all over, and he dared to run away in vain.

Returning to the offense, he once again showed his strength. After squeezing Horace away from the basket, he successfully put the layup up.

This time, the Lakers were prepared and immediately returned to defense, denying the SuperSonics a chance to start a fast break.
