NBA backer king

Chapter 606 Punching the Shark
"The general is over! It's over, it's over!"

Barkley got up from the commentary seat, leaned over and stared at the screen on the table, his eyes widened.

"Any violation? No, no..."

Kenny Smith pointed at the screen and yelled: "Just now the old K mentioned catching the ball above the waist. There is no violation there, and it is a violation only below the waist."

On the court, David Robinson was coughing and having chest pains, but he also felt numb, like being hit by a car and his chest was crushed.

He knew he was doomed, and it was impossible for him to play in the subsequent series. He might have to stay in the hospital to watch his teammates play in the Western Conference Finals. Without him, could O'Neill carry the old K alone?Is there any hope for his championship?Thinking of this, there is a kind of sadness rising from the bottom of my heart.

The game was interrupted, and the referee waved to the Lakers' bench, asking the team doctor to come up and deal with it.

"Admiral?"

Kobe rushed over and took a look, and he knew there was trouble. The ribs must have been broken by the old K, but he didn't know how many were broken, and he didn't know if there was internal bleeding.

"Old K, isn't it too cruel?" He asked with a gloomy face.

"Fuck! This is Lao Tzu's routine operation back then. It is neither foul nor illegal." Old Wang said casually.

The Lakers team doctor came up to check and said, "The third, fourth, and fifth ribs were broken, and the fourth shattered bone."

Everyone's expression changed, and they looked at Lao Wang one after another.

On the sidelines, Dameng sighed and said: "Oh, the general has suffered a lot, he's an old bone, what are you doing with the old K, isn't it good to retreat into the basket and double-team him?"

Lei Gong said: "He didn't expect that old K would use sideways attack again. Since the introduction of the K law, old K has never used it again."

Glider said: "Now that O'Neal does not have the general as a substitute, his playing time will definitely be extended, and the focus will definitely be on the offensive end, and the defensive end and rebounding will be reduced. It is a very good thing for the Suns."

Dameng said: "As long as Old K pulls above the waist, who would dare to block him? Just now the Lakers were man-to-man defense and did not double-team Old K. Now they must play zone defense and double-team him."

David Robinson was carried away quickly, and the arena arranged for ambulances and emergency doctors, and he was taken directly to the hospital for surgery.

In order to be cautious, the referee ran to the scorer's table to watch the playback, and finally decided that this was a normal offense, no foul, no violation, but a fine for smashing a backboard.

"Now that the old K's mobility has improved, he can completely pull up to the position above the waist and use sideways to attack. The league must expand the scope of illegal use of the shoulder." A Lakers assistant coach said.

"Yes, it should be extended below the elbow area," said another assistant coach.

Phil Jackson also couldn't help nodding. It is indeed possible to expand to the position below the elbow area, and it can be used above the elbow area, so it will not affect Kobe.

Moreover, it is impossible for the league to really expand the K-law to the entire stadium. It is enough to limit the inside players. It is impossible to limit the outside players.

But what now?His head is a bit big.

Without David Robinson as a substitute, after O'Neal is off, who will take the fifth position?

Now the team only has Samarko as a marginal backup center, and there are two backup power forwards left. Facing old K, what can he do?

Also, how to defend the old K who is pulled above the waist now?

In the TNT commentary seat, Barkley said excitedly: "I never thought that I could see Old K's sideways attack in the game. It's so exciting, haha..."

He suddenly saw Kenny Smith tilting his head to avoid the camera and winking at him. He immediately understood that he was a little carried away, and quickly made amends: "Yes, I feel sorry for David Robinson's injury. Yes, I will go to the hospital to visit him later."

Kenny Smith then changed the subject and said: "Now the Lakers have encountered a problem. They need to face the old K's sideways attack again. Yes, the current K law is only applicable below the waist, and the old K pulls above the waist. You can avoid the restrictions of the K law. This is a big problem that the Lakers must face."

Barkley said: "Maybe the league will modify the K-law, but I can't imagine that when the K-law spreads above the waist, how much impact it will have on other players, even outside players. Anyway, Kobe's strength will drop by at least [-]%."

In New York, David Stern was lost in thought.

He doesn't want to expand the application scope of the K law. In fact, he doesn't want the K law at all. The K law not only restricts the old K, but also restricts all inside players, so the last time the old K just retired, he canceled the K law.

After 10 minutes, the game restarted, and soon the first quarter ended, at 38:40, the Suns led by two points.

"The score is really high, this is the Western Conference Finals!" Su Qun said.

"Even if they can't defend against the opponent's attack, a high score is inevitable. In the next game, O'Neal should play for a while, and Kobe may increase his personal offense." Zhang Reasonable said.

The second quarter started quickly, and the game was interrupted for 10 minutes just now, so the core of both sides was on the court.

Kobe received the ball on the right-wing three-point line, Joe Johnson spread his arms and blocked the front, and Marion, who was in the middle, also rushed to his side with the pass.

"boom!"

The biggest function of zone defense is to limit the breakthrough of outside players. Kobe's breakthrough is also restricted, so that he has no chance of singles.

Lao Wang caught O'Neal and took the backcourt rebound. The outside line had turned around and went down quickly. He immediately passed it to Nash, and then ran to the frontcourt.

The fast break failed this time, and the Lakers quickly returned to defense and switched to positional warfare.

Lao Wang lifted it up again, pulled it above the left waist and below the left elbow, and asked for the ball.

"Old K, don't try to hurt me!" O'Neill, who was following up, said fiercely.

Old Wang glanced at O'Neill's fat chest, curled his lips, I'm not stupid, bumping into you, wouldn't it be easier for me to get around?

Below him is O'Neal, with Rick Fox a step above.

The Lakers also play two-one-two zone defense. Fox is guarding the free throw line. Although he has not been defended to his side yet, as long as Nash passes the ball, it only takes one step, and Fox's double-team will be around him immediately.

Stoudemire went to the right wing and was not in the paint. Lakers power forward Madsen was guarding the right waist and no one was at the basket.

Nash was at the top of the arc and did not pass the ball to Lao Wang, but suddenly moved to the right wing, and the Lakers' defensive formation was also forced to move to the right.

At this moment, Lao Wang suddenly turned around, bypassed O'Neal and rushed into the paint.

The next moment, Nash, who was moving to the right wing, suddenly passed the ball behind his backhand, and the ball went straight to the basket.

"boom!"

Lao Wang flew up, caught the ball in the air, and took advantage of the opportunity to complete a dunk.

"Beautiful! The cooperation between Nash and old K is getting better and better." Su Qun said excitedly.

"In positional warfare, Nash is the core of the outside line, and Iron Army is the core of the inside line." Zhang Lili laughed.

"brush!"

Kobe came to the left wing this time, passed the ball to O'Neal in the low post, and then immediately cut inside, received O'Neal's pass, went to the basket and evaded Stoudemire who was returning to the defense, and successfully picked the basket with a backhand.

"Yes, the OK combination perfectly played Phil Jackson's triangle offense." Barkley shouted.

"Kobe seems to be a little slower now," Kenny Smith said.

"Don't you see how strong he is now? This kid must have gained weight again, so his knee was injured, but I don't know what his tonnage is now." Barkley laughed.

Lao Wang retreated to the bottom line and made a quick shot, but the Suns' fast break failed. Fox and Fisher quickly returned to defense and blocked the fast break of Nash and Marion.

Pharaoh still sits above the waist and below the elbow, and asks for the ball.

This time, Nash broke through from the left elbow with the ball, used Lao Wang's pick-and-roll to get rid of Fisher, bypassed O'Neal, and rushed into the paint.

O'Neal turned back to defend the basket, Nash pulled up from the basket, suddenly made a cross, and the basketball fell into the hands of Lao Wang who followed O'Neal into the paint area.

"asshole!"

As soon as O'Neill turned around, he was hit and staggered back, and the tonnage of 150 kilograms could not withstand the impact of Pharaoh.

"boom!"

"Di!"

There was a violent basket explosion, accompanied by the referee's whistle.

"Oh hoo!"

"Flat basket tomahawk-style buckle! Old K buckled the cat food, and he is killing O'Neill..."

There were huge cheers and roars from the live commentator.

"Xiao Yugan, I think you still only have the strength to be cat food." Old Wang laughed.

O'Neill glared at Pharaoh angrily, didn't reply, and ran forward.

"ball!"

Straight into the basket, left elbow to the top of the old king on the left, he shouted at Fisher who was holding the ball.

"Whoosh!"

The ball flew in.

At this moment, Lao Wang suddenly turned around, dodged O'Neill's elbow against him, blocked in front of O'Neill, completed the circle in time, and then took off to steal the ball.

"asshole!"

In a hurry, O'Neile yanked Pharaoh's jersey behind his back, and pulled Pharaoh who had just jumped up to the floor without even taking any protective action.

"Di!"

The referee's whistle blew.

"Ouch, O'Neill is making a big move!" Zhang Lili exclaimed in CCTV's commentary seat.

"O'Neill is in trouble!" Barkley immediately shouted in the TNT commentary.

"Special!"

Lao Wang was so angry that he got up and rushed forward, which was an iron mountain.

"Oh!"

O'Neill snorted, was knocked over, his back hit the floor, and the players around him felt the floor jump.

"It's going to war!" Barkley roared excitedly.

"Calm down, Tie Jun!" Zhang Lili shouted urgently.

O'Neill slipped a few meters back, Lao Wang jumped up and rode on the former, and just punched him in the face, causing O'Neill to cry out in pain.

At this time, Kobe and others rushed forward and pulled Lao Wang up, and the rest of the two teams also separated the two of them and tried to dissuade them.

"Old K, don't mess around, if you get sent off, it doesn't make sense for me to win the Suns." Kobe shouted loudly.

"You want to beat me too?" Lao Wang glared at Kobe.

"Not necessarily." Kobe glared back.

"Staring at me again?"

With a slap, Lao Wang waved his hand and slapped Kobe's cap.

Seeing Kobe being beaten, the corner of the referee's mouth twitched, and he turned his head away, pretending not to see it.

"Poor Kobe!"

Jerry West just shrugged helplessly on the sidelines. Kobe has a high status in the Lakers, but in front of old K, he can only be taught a lesson. He has seen this kind of scene a lot before and is used to it.

"Haha, Kobe was taught a lesson by old K again!" Barkley laughed.

Kobe held his cap, his bald head hurt a little, and he said angrily, "Old K, hundreds of millions of people are watching, you've gone too far! You're going to blow your face again!"

"Should I teach you to look at the place? You try to look through it?" Old Wang said angrily.

Kobe didn't dare to disobey Old K anymore. He knew that Old K's temper was sometimes bad, so he stepped back and said, "Calm down, I don't know as much as you now."

O'Neill had already got up, was hit hard enough, and fell hard enough, clutching his chest and gasping for breath, his hands and legs were a little weak.

The referee made a penalty and gave O'Neal a first-level malicious technical foul and Lao Wang a physical foul, which counted as one board each.

O'Neill, whose face was already swollen, glanced at Pharaoh, walked to the sidelines silently, and signaled for a substitution. He can't play now and needs to rest.

The Lakers replaced the backup center Samarko, and the game continued.

Barkley said with a smile: "O'Neill's behind-the-scenes pull is a little bad. His relationship with Old K has always been good, but I'm afraid this time he will turn his face."

"And it was pulled after the old K jumped up. The key is that he has not taken any protective action yet. It is indeed dangerous. O'Neill is a little impulsive." Kenny Smith said.

This game became a watershed. Although O'Neal played again, his condition was gone, and Lao Wang had a big explosion. Although Kobe tried his best to resist, but with his own strength, he was unable to compete with Lao Wang. The Lakers lost the G1 game.

In this battle, Kobe scored 43 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, 4 turnovers and 4 fouls. His shooting percentage was 43.5%, which is not low, because the Suns played zone defense, and he was always double-teamed.

老王轰下46分17篮板6助攻1抢断5盖帽2失误4犯规的数据，投篮命中率达到64.5%。

After the game, Wang Tiejun was surrounded by the media, and O'Neill was also surrounded by the media not far away, and he couldn't walk away.

"Old K, are you angry with O'Neill's back pulling action?" A reporter asked.

"I'm sorry, his actions can easily hurt me, so I taught him a lesson on the court. If there is a next game, I won't do it on the court." Lao Wang said.

"Are you still friends with him?" the reporter asked.

"I hope our conflicts on the court will not affect my relationship with him off the court." Lao Wang said calmly.

"Shaq, do you regret pulling old K down from behind and not making a protective move?" On the other side, the reporter asked.

"I was a little impulsive at the time, and I made a big move. I'm sorry." O'Neill said.

"Is he so impulsive because he was dunked by Old K in the last round?" the reporter asked.

"I'm sorry." O'Neill avoided the question with some embarrassment.

"Shaq, are you going to play heads-up with Old K later?" Another reporter asked.

"NO."

If I can beat him, I will fight him one-on-one now. O'Neill suppressed the grief and anger in his heart, and immediately shook his head.

"Are you worried that old K will go to the visiting team's locker room to find you?" the reporter asked again.

"He has already hit me, what else do you want?" O'Neill touched his red and swollen left cheek, a little sad and angry.

"Pfft!"

A reporter next to him couldn't hold back and laughed.

After finishing the on-site interview, Lao Wang bid farewell to the fans and left the stadium with his teammates.

A group of Lakers players were in front. Seeing that fat man O'Neill, he took a few steps to catch up.

"Old K, what do you want to do?"

O'Neill heard footsteps behind him, looked back, saw that it was Lao Wang chasing him, was startled, and hurriedly ran away.

"Fuck, why are you running?" Old Wang shouted from behind.

"What are you chasing?" O'Neal ran away without looking back.

"Kobe, tell that fat man to be careful, I'll find him in the locker room later." Old Dynasty shouted at Kobe.

Kobe nodded helplessly, turned around and entered the locker room, and shouted to O'Neill who was about to take a shower: "Hurry up, don't take a shower, old K will come to you soon."

"What? This bastard, is he finished?"

O'Neill was taken aback and stopped taking a shower. He opened the door and ran out with his bare upper body, shouting, "Who can help me, take my bag back to the hotel, I'll go first."

Kobe gave O'Neill a look of contempt, idiot, old K hit you just now, to scare you, do you need to run?

Phil Jackson, who was about to go in, was almost bumped into the head, and asked helplessly, "Shaq, what's the matter?"

"That bastard old K is coming to find me. The postman was injured by him in the bathroom before. I am a civilized person. I don't want to fight with him, so I ran away first."

O'Neill left without saying a word and ran away.

Phil Jackson felt helpless for a while, you can't afford to offend Old K, why did you make that dangerous move?

The team has two cores, one is the apprentice who was taught by old K at will, and the other is under the pressure of old K and can't turn over. Should we discuss with the management and simply trade old K with Kobe and O'Neal?

"Old K, are you really going to block the door?" Stoudemire asked excitedly in the home team locker room.

"Fatty is attacking behind the scenes, we must teach him a lesson." Old Wang nodded.

"Then let's go together later." Xiaosi said excitedly.

Lao Wang smiled, this rookie is very simple, I want to beat O'Neill, I just caught up, do you have to wait?I just wanted to scare that idiot O'Neill.

It’s said that O’Neill ran to the underground parking lot and found that he couldn’t leave. He didn’t have a car, and even if there was a taxi, he couldn’t get in. He was afraid that the old K would chase here. He was still naked and afraid of being seen, so he had to hide pitifully in a corner.

This wait lasted for more than an hour before the Lakers arrived late.

"Why are you here now? Did old K block the door?" O'Neill hurriedly ran over and asked.

"Shaq, you haven't left yet?" Kobe and others asked in surprise.

"I don't have a car, and I don't even have any clothes on, how can I get there?" O'Neill said with a sullen expression.

"Pfft!"

Several Lakers players couldn't hold back, laughing.

"Don't worry, Shaq, old K didn't look for you, he must have frightened you." Fox comforted with a smile.

"Let's go, get in the car, he might be coming soon."

Seeing Old K's car parked not far away, O'Neill hurriedly urged.

"What's the rush?" Old Wang's violent shout suddenly sounded.

"It's over!"

O'Neill was startled, and turned his head to see that it was Old K who turned out from the stairs, followed by a group of Suns players and staff.

"Old K, you, what do you want to do? I'm not afraid of you!"

When Lao Wang came over, O'Neill had to force himself to be calm, but his face was trembling a little, and his upper and lower teeth were chattering loudly.

Kobe didn't bother to care anymore, he knew that old K was just trying to scare the fat man, and he would call the door early.

A group of Lakers management and coaching staff had to stand in front of O'Neal. Jerry West looked at Colangelo Jr., who shook his head at him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"You idiot, next time, I will beat you to death."

Lao Wang cursed, threw the bag in his hand at O'Neill's feet, and shouted: "Hurry up, get me to the car."

"Come on, Shaq."

Fox was still very clever, quickly picked up the bag and stuffed it into O'Neill's hand, and pushed O'Neill from behind.

"Old K, it's not that I'm afraid of you. I fell on you once, and I'll carry your bag for you this time. I'm not an example."

O'Neill walked towards Lao Wang's car with his bag, but in order not to be too embarrassing, he kept muttering in his mouth.

After hastily putting his bag on the car, he quickly ran onto the Lakers' bus, naked from the upper body, in a state of embarrassment.

"Pfft!"

Many people couldn't help laughing again.

Kobe shouted to Lao Wang before getting into the car: "Old K, I am not convinced that I lost tonight. If there is no accident, we may not lose. We will come back next time."

"I still win you." Pharaoh replied.

"not necessarily."

Kobe dropped this sentence, turned his head and got into the car.
