Starting from the last bus in the NBA

Chapter 255

The second Western Conference finals ended, and the score between the two sides was tied 1:1.

The next two games will be moved to Los Angeles and returned to the home court of the Lakers.

It's just that before that, they still have 4 days to rest.

No way, we have to wait for the east side.

Today, the Eastern Conference has not played a game in the semifinals, and the Western Conference has ended two games, so naturally we have to wait.

Even if we don't wait now, after the Western Conference finals are over, the Eastern Conference will decide the final winner.

Fortunately, here in the East, the two semifinals have played seven games, and there is no rest time.

Now it seems that it is quite fair.

Inside the Supersonics, they are still carrying out daily training, and have not made too many adjustments because of the loss.

Not impossible, but unnecessary.

Although they lost in the last game, it was reasonable and there was no problem with the execution of tactics.

Purely because of the feel, the established tactics failed.

In addition to training, Wang Hao also pays attention to the Eastern Conference finals. After all, there are two games in the Eastern Conference before going to Los Angeles.

I have to say that Iverson is really an individual to blame. He has maintained a very sufficient physical fitness for two consecutive days of fighting.

Let's put it this way, everyone else is tired, but he is not tired.

In the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, this guy took 35 crazy shots, tirelessly hitting the inside of the Bucks.

35 shots, this is already an exaggeration.

You know, this is the NBA, and it's also the stage of the Eastern Conference finals. One can imagine how tight the defense is.

In this case, every shot requires a lot of physical energy.

Many people say that the reason why Kobe and Iverson often get high scores.

It is because they occupy a large number of shots.

But the problem is, if it were someone else, even if you gave him unlimited fire rights, he wouldn't be able to make so many shots.

Not to mention looking for mobile phone opportunities, even physical fitness can't keep up.

The final result is naturally that the number team wins.

To be honest, strictly speaking, the strength between the Bucks and the digital team is almost the same.

It's just that the Bucks have a big flaw, that is, the inside line is a bit ineffective.

Not to mention scoring, not even defending.

In this way, it gave Iverson the opportunity to constantly attack the inside, and the effect was very good.

In this game, nearly half of Iverson's scoring came from the three-second zone, winning direct shots, or making fouls.

Not just in this game, but in the entire series, his main idea will be to hit the basket.

It's just that success is Iverson, and defeat is Iverson.

As a team built around Iverson, the digital team's dependence on Iverson is very exaggerated.

If Iverson plays smoothly, the team has a good chance of winning. Once Iverson is not smooth, it will be difficult.

In the second game, Iverson made 26 of 5 shots directly, playing an exaggerated performance with a shooting percentage of less than 20%.

What's more terrible is that the players of other digital teams failed to perform exceptionally today, and they could only lose in the end.

Of course, once Iverson is not performing well, it would be too much to ask the rest of the digital team to perform.

After all, usually there are not many chances, and if you want to let others score all of a sudden, isn't that difficult for others?

Similar to the Western side, the two teams also scored 1:1.

At this time, the Sonics had come to Los Angeles a day earlier to adapt to the Staples Center arena.

Don't underestimate the problem of adapting to the arena.

Many years ago, when the NBA's various regulations were not so strict, there were not a few teams that played tricks at home.

Like adjusting the height of the rim, or creating traps on the floor...

As for causing trouble when adapting to the arena, or interfering with the visiting team's rest, that is even more common.

It can be said that there is only what you can't imagine, and there is nothing they can't do.

Of course, as the NBA's management has become more standardized and the requirements have become stricter over the years, there are fewer such things.

What's more, today's media is pervasive, and even the slightest disturbance can make big news for you.

Moreover, each team pays more and more attention to the image.

May 5, Los Angeles, Staples Center.

This time, Wang Hao stayed in the hotel booked by the team and did not go out for a while.

Because he hasn't contacted Jessica for a while, to be precise, it should be that Jessica didn't contact him.

After all, based on his image status today, is it possible that he still needs to take the initiative to contact others?

As for the reason, it is estimated that the career has achieved some success.

Wang Hao naturally didn't care about this, after all it was just for fun, so could it be more serious?
This is where?Entertainment circle!
It is not too much to compare the entertainment industry to garbage bags, after all, it is too dirty.

What's more, this is the Hollywood entertainment industry.

It doesn't matter if you play for a while, if you are serious, then you are a real idiot.

Not long ago, during a commercial event, a young model called Gisele Bundchen hooked up with him.

As for Hollywood stars, Wang Hao has only heard of some famous ones, and as for models, he doesn't know much about them.

But it's pretty, and the conversation is pretty good.

If it weren't for the busy playoffs during this period, Wang Hao might have already taken the initiative and something happened.

Well, without further ado, the game matters.

At around 7 pm Los Angeles time, the Staples Center was already crowded with people.

Los Angeles was originally one of the largest ball markets in the NBA, otherwise, it would not be able to support the Lakers.

Coupled with the current strength of the Lakers, the team even has superstars like O'Neal and Kobe.

It can be said that the Lakers' home games are really packed.

Even more so in the playoffs.

Not just ordinary fans, but also celebrities from all walks of life, and even important government officials will appear.

Of course, this is mainly related to the special situation in the United States.

Naturally, Wang Hao is not too unfamiliar with these Hollywood stars. After all, he often sees movies and TV to pass the time on weekdays.

But, so be it!
Wouldn't the arrival of a few Hollywood stars at the Staples Center increase the Lakers' winning percentage?
This is impossible.

At this time, the Sonics and the Lakers had finished their final shooting practice, and the referee had asked both sides to return to the bench.

At this time, it is estimated that the technical table and the referee are conducting the final communication and exchange.

The main thing is the technical station. They need to determine the situation of the TV broadcast, which is the most important thing.

"Di!"

After confirming that everything was ready, the referee finally blew his whistle, indicating that the game was about to start.

The two sides came to the arena, this time, it was still Gary Payton who took the initiative to face Kobe.

Let Gary grind Kobe first, and Wang Hao will clean up Kobe in the second half.

To be honest, Kobe did feel unnatural for a moment when he saw Gary Payton approaching him.

No way, as the top perimeter defensive player in the NBA today, Kobe still feels the pressure.

This is evident from the data.

In the game against the Spurs, Kobe averaged 33.3 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists per game, and his performance was simply explosive.

Not to mention this, what is closer is efficiency, with an average of 51.4% shooting per game, and he scored 26.3 points in only 33.3 shots.

Why is this happening?

Because among the Spurs' perimeter players, no one can limit him.

You know, Kobe is an outside player, and, today's NBA has not canceled the hand check.

To be honest, the defensive rules at this time are very unfriendly to outside players.

The shooting percentage of outside players is usually about 45%, which is still an outstanding player.

For example, Wang Hao's hit rate of more than 49%, or even close to half, shocked countless people.

But in the face of the Sonics, Bryant's performance fell sharply.

In the previous two games, Kobe averaged 25 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5 assists per game, which looked pretty good.

However, his shooting percentage has dropped sharply, only in the early 42%.

The hit rate has dropped by almost [-]%, which is very illustrative.

Gary Payton's defense is effective.

Even if Gary Payton takes a rest, or is tired, isn't there still Wang Hao?
It can be said that this round of the Supersonics series is aimed at Kobe, and it is focused on it.

No way, O'Neill is a bit difficult to target.

"Los Angeles, Los Angeles..."

"Lakers, Lakers..."

The game had just started, and the sound of a tsunami sounded from the Staples Center.

No wonder they are so excited, after all, this is the way for the Lakers to defend their title, maybe they can witness another dynasty!
Again, even the most die-hard fans would only want to see the team win.

If you keep losing, you will only lose the support of the fans.

I don't know if it was the fans' cheering that played a role, but O'Neill took the lead and grabbed the ball.

Seeing that O'Neal successfully jumped the ball, the fans became more excited, and the shouts became louder.

To be honest, a little uncomfortable!

Isn't it just winning the jump ball, what's the big deal?I don't know if you thought the Lakers won the championship?
Wang Hao will not spoil them!

He said to the gorilla Ewing who was running over: "Patrick, since the fans in Los Angeles are so enthusiastic, we have to express it.

So, let's send Shaq to the free throw line first, let the Lakers score two points first, and thank the Los Angeles fans. "

Ewing was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't understand Wang Hao's words.

It's just that the shouts of the Los Angeles fans made him a little uncomfortable, and he also heard the word free throw line.

The Lakers attacked. This time, Ewing did not choose to defend in front of him, but moved out of position.

Then there is nothing to hesitate, O'Neill immediately asked for a position, and then immediately launched a strong attack.

O'Neill immediately pushed Ewing back, and when he was about to force himself, Ewing suddenly hugged O'Neill and shouted.

"Foul, foul!"

O'Neill who was fouled was stupid. He didn't know that Ewing was watching the foul!
Then, he stared at Wang Hao in a daze. As for why he wanted to look at Wang Hao?
He was on the side, didn't he know who was the culprit, he heard Wang Hao make Ewing foul.

Not to mention that O'Neal was dumbfounded, the referee was also dumbfounded. For a moment, several referees thought they heard it wrong.

However, after watching Ewing hold O'Neal and not defending, and repeatedly emphasized his foul.

They finally determined that they heard right, it was a foul, so the referee blew his whistle and signaled to the technical table that Ewing had fouled.

The technical table is also a bit confused, this goal may not be scored, why do you foul directly? The game has just begun!

At the same time, the sound of cheering, which was still roaring like a tsunami, was stopped abruptly by this foul.

Especially the fans who are far away and have poor eyesight, and they don't know what happened.

But they are very sure, foul, O'Neal is going to the free throw line, he has a chance to free throw.

But for O'Neal's free throws, even Lakers fans have no confidence at all.

It's like, looking forward to enjoying a big meal, only to take a bite and immediately see a fly die in it.

For a moment, Staples fell silent.

I have to say that a quiet Staples Center is a good arena, and quiet fans are good fans.

O'Neal stared at Wang Hao viciously, as if this guy was the culprit.

Wang Hao smiled, as if he didn't feel anything.

As for the fact that he didn't make a foul himself, but directed Ewing to make a foul, it's actually quite normal.

After all, Wang Hao is the main force and a core player, so he should be cautious about fouls.

There is no way to avoid fouls that cannot be avoided, but this kind of intentional fouls is unnecessary.

As for Ewing, that is, less than 30 minutes of playing time, 6 fouls are enough.

He cut the shark as soon as he came up, which made O'Neill a little uncomfortable.

Sure enough, after seeing O'Neal's stiff shooting action, Wang Hao knew it was right.

The first free throw was missed, which is not a loss for the shark hacking tactics.

Unexpectedly, O'Neal missed the second free throw, and PJ Brown quickly protected the rebound.

This is a big profit for the Supersonics!
With a foul that is not particularly important, he directly won the ball, which is simply too cost-effective.

Moreover, from this trial, it seems that it can also be seen that O'Neal's free throw state does not seem to be good.

In fact, the reason for fouling so early is naturally for a reason, and it is the special preparation of the Supersonics.

The first is to test, to test O'Neal's free throw state, and then to accumulate the number of fouls as soon as possible.

Of course, the most important thing is the mentality when dealing with O'Neal.

In the last game, the Supersonics used the shark-slashing tactic, but the effect was mediocre.

O'Neal's free throw percentage exceeds 50%. In fact, for the Lakers, it is no longer a disadvantage.

Especially in the last game, with that kind of shooting, the Sonics may not be able to score 1 point every time they attack.

Today looks like a good day to kill sharks.

PJ Brown quickly handed the ball to Gary Payton, and Gary Payton immediately pushed forward with the ball, increasing his speed as much as possible.

Outside the three-point line, Wang Hao responded to Gary Payton, and then returned the ball to Gary Payton.

As for him, he brought Kobe to the bottom line.

Of course, every second he came to the bottom line, he immediately started running. This is the opening tactic of the Sonics today.

Wang Hao took Kobe for a run first, he played off the ball first, and let Gary Payton lead the opening offense.

And Gary Payton lived up to expectations.

After using PJ Brown to block Fisher, facing his old teammate Horace from last year, he hit a mid-range jumper.

It can be seen that Gary Payton seems to be in a good state today.

Although Wang Hao didn't seem to do anything this round, in fact, his running position fully restrained the defense of the two Lakers players.
