Chapter 426 Angry O'Neill

"Is there nothing Phil Jackson can do?" After the halftime break, players from both sides walked out of the player tunnel. After seeing the Lakers' lineup, Magic Johnson also frowned at the moment, obviously dissatisfied with the Lakers' behavior after the halftime break. Some dissatisfaction with the change.

After adjustments at halftime, Phil Jackson put Kobe and Malone on the bench after the start of the third quarter, and sent a lineup led by O'Neal and Payton. , and poor coordination, this lineup is obviously more reasonable, and it can also maximize O'Neal's full energy, but this change also means that Phil Jackson can't find a way for them to coexist in a short time.Judging from Phil Jackson's adjustments, the Lakers are likely to replace O'Neal and Payton with Kobe and Malone after they have played for a while, and the four superstars will take turns. It is said that Phil Jackson is at the end of his rope.

Can this change of the Lakers deal with the Pacers in front of them?Of course not, although this change can allow the Lakers to play smooth coordination and tactics, and can also enhance the strength of the Lakers' bench lineup, but in this way, the outside line of the Lakers' starting lineup will be more obvious. , Payton will face the siege of the Pacers on multiple outside lines, and at the same time, after Malone is off the court, the Pacers will double-team O'Neal even more brazenly.And put Kobe and Malone on the bench, one game or two is fine, over time, the Lakers will definitely have problems internally, just look at Kobe sitting on the bench now, the gloomy look in his eyes will tell if Fei What will happen if Jackson keeps putting Kobe on the bench.

While the Lakers made changes, the Pacers did not make any adjustments to the lineup, and still maintained the main lineup in the second quarter, but the position on the defensive end was slightly different from that in the first half. Because O'Neal no longer double-teamed O'Neal without the ball, but allocated part of his defensive attention to assisting defense, especially the Lakers' outside lines. The signal released by the Lakers' change is very obvious. Robert Hawley, Gary Payton, Devin George, and veteran Tracy Murray are all players with good mid-range and long-range shooting capabilities. With O'Neal bringing such a group of players on the court, it is clear at a glance what the Lakers will do in the future of.

"I hope this change will have some effect." Phil Jackson on the sidelines looked at O'Neal who had already appeared on the stage, and then looked at Kobe who was not far away from him with a towel covering his head, and kept rubbing his hands together with.The 15 minutes of the intermission was too short for Phil Jackson. In just 15 minutes, Phil Jackson was unable to formulate an effective strategy. Those plans and arrangements before the game are all useless now Well, in order not to lose the game just like this, Phil Jackson finally decided to use O'Neal and Kobe separately. First, let O'Neal take Payton and the others to play a big and four small tactics, and then let Kobe and Malone take the lead. Playing pick-and-roll tactics with the bench lineup, if time is enough, Phil Jackson is also going to experiment with O'Neal and Malone, Payton and Malone, and Payton and Kobe. After their performance, after this game is over, it's time to formulate tactics that suit them.

"DiBacon, haven't I made you suffer enough?" When O'Neal received the pass from Payton, he saw that the Pacers did not double-team him, but let himself and Mutombo go together. One-on-one, O'Neill immediately felt as if he had been wronged by the sky. Every time he confronted the Pacers, he was either double-teamed or triple-teamed.In today's game, for the first time, the Pacers did not double-team themselves, but let a subordinate in the finals defend themselves. When did he receive such treatment?Is Larry Bird so confident in Mutombo that he can limit himself one-on-one?Or in Larry Bird's heart, he no longer needs to double-team?The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, O'Neill could only vent all his anger on Mutombo at the moment.While provoking Mutombo with words, O'Neal used his strong body to keep pushing Mutombo behind him.

"Shaq, do you know why you always fail? Because you are too arrogant!" After hearing O'Neill's sarcasm, Mutombo returned the sarcasm not to be outdone. After being abused by O'Neal for 5 consecutive games in the finals, without a little knowledge, he figured out some tricks to make O'Neal feel uncomfortable. Mutombo was in vain as the best defensive player for four times. In this game, the Pacers were responsible It has always been Dikembe Mutombo who defends O'Neal. Although Mutombo still can't get O'Neal, relying on the little tricks he has figured out, and the small moves that make O'Neal face Mutombo in this game When I was in Bo, I was always uncomfortable.Although Mutombo was also a loser in front of O'Neal, when Mutombo said these words, he was not at all embarrassed. Instead, he deliberately showed a haughty look, as if O'Neill is the same as his defeated opponent.

"Huh, it's not your turn to teach me when you lose." Although O'Neal made it to the finals three times and won only one championship, he has won the championship and FMVP anyway. Champions come to teach themselves, especially Mutombo, a guy who was repeatedly ravaged by him in the finals.After feeling the gap behind him, O'Neal retracted the center of gravity of his body, then turned his back directly in front of Mutombo, and threw the basketball to the basket with a small hook, although O'Neal can completely wipe Mutombo now. Tombo rushed directly to the basket and declared his dominance with a powerful dunk, but for the sake of saving energy, O'Neal finally chose the hook, which is a relatively energy-saving offensive method.

"Shaq, be careful." It's just that after O'Neal took the shot, before it landed, he heard Payton shouting behind him. O'Neill, who had a beautiful note, saw a figure flying over from his side, and slapped the basketball, which was still in the rising stage, to the bottom line.

Not only O'Neal, but even Mutombo had an incredible expression after seeing Meng Xu block O'Neal. The moment the turn is completed, the defense against O'Neal has basically been given up. According to the experience of Mutombo and O'Neal for many years, as long as O'Neal pushes away and completes the turn with the ball, no matter who is defending O'Neal Can only give up resistance.But to Mutombo's surprise, Meng Xu, who was still far beyond the 3-point line before O'Neal singled him out, appeared just right after O'Neal made a shot and gave O'Neal a hot shot Big hot pot.

"Shaq, be careful next time you shoot. DieBacon is not the only Pacer." Meng Xu, who fell from the sky, looked at the angry O'Neal and said calmly. , Meng Xu also winked at Mutombo who was not far away from him.

"Bastard, you're looking for death!" When Meng Xu walked to the side of the court, ready to defend the Lakers' baseline ball, O'Neal, who had come to his senses, looked at Meng Xu's back, clenched his fist tightly, and The bites creaked and creaked.
