Big Zhi and Kobe's Lakers Dynasty

Chapter 116 35VS25
Shaquille O'Neal, who learned his wisdom by taking a fall, had long been wary of Dennis Rodman's trick, and directly showed his iron elbow to persuade such a wicked big shark to retreat.

The Los Angeles Lakers were attacking. At this time, Shaquille O'Neal had already figured out the old chief's defense.

Once again, he hit the inside line strongly, combining three shallow ones with deep and light ones. Robert Parish, a young lady, was defeated in a few strokes. Although the core area could only be operated for three seconds, Shaquille O'Neal took such a long time. The capacity is definitely more than enough.

A turn around dunks 2+1, it's no problem to win the opponent!

The free throw went into the net too!
30-17, the point difference was further expanded!

Robert Parish was strategically won by Shaquille O'Neal, which also meant the complete collapse of the Chicago Bulls' center position.

Until the end of the first half, Michael Jordan still couldn't get back his shooting touch. He made 13 of 4 shots in the first half and scored only 11 points.

And Shaquille O'Neal is unbeatable, scoring 23 points in the first half and beating the two centers of the Chicago Bulls!

Wang Dazhi scored 5 points on 18 of [-] shots in the first half. Kobe missed all [-] shots and scored zero points. However, he did a remarkable job limiting Michael Jordan to this level. Nick Van Exel, as the team's No. The second firepower also scored [-] points efficiently, and Eldon Campbell and Eddie Jones also had good performances.

The Los Angeles Lakers entered the second half with a 72-57 advantage of 15 points in the first half. If it weren't for the hard support of Scottie Pippen and Tony Kukoc, the game would have been reduced to garbage at the end of the first half It's time.

On the way back to the locker room, Dennis Rodman kept chattering in Phil Jackson's ear, and Phil Jackson didn't show disgust, but nodded.

During the intermission, coach Delmar Harris affirmed the overall performance of the Los Angeles Lakers in the first half, and he also praised Kobe's defense by name.

Leading the defending champion by 15 points in the away game, the atmosphere in the locker room of the Los Angeles Lakers was greatly improved, and everyone was eager for the second half of the game.

Back in the second half, the Chicago Bulls surprised everyone with their starting roster.

Magic Johnson: "My God, the Chicago Bulls didn't even play a center in the second half!
Did Phil Jackson want to use Dennis Rodman to guard Shaquille O'Neal the entire second half?
I'm not questioning Dennis Rodman's defensive ability, I just think the size gap between the two is too big, right?
These two had a direct dialogue in the Eastern Conference finals last year, but that was only a few rounds!

Shaquille O'Neal is only 25 years old this year, and Dennis Rodman is 35 years old!
I don't know how long Dennis Rodman can last? "

Magic Johnson has some doubts about Phil Jackson's bold use of troops, but this is also human nature.

Larry Bird: "Oh no, I disagree with you Erwin!
35 years old is such a vibrant age, you have to know that my friend Robert Parish is three years older than me!

Robert is still fighting on the court to support his family, but I am here to boast about you and Dr. J, which makes me very ashamed!
Ha ha!In fact, I think Robert defended well in the first half. Maybe Phil Jackson is afraid that my old buddy will be exhausted? "

Larry Bird actually didn't want to see his old teammate defend the Sharks again. He was really afraid that the old guy who was three years older than himself would be ruined by Shaq, a 25-year-old guy who didn't know what to do.

Dr. J Julius Owen: "Through the bond of Robert Parrish, I feel a lot younger. People who are three years younger than me can still defend Shaq. I really think I should go to the gym to exercise. !
If there is a Retired Players League, I will definitely go to it! "

Dr. J Julius Erwin also had a second spring because of tonight's game.

In the second half of the game, the Chicago Bulls made two adjustments.

Steve Kerr served as point guard, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen continued to play, Phil Jackson directly took Tony Kukoc at the position of power forward, and Dennis Rhodes at the other two meters Man top in the center position.

Seeing the opponent's changes, Shaquille O'Neal couldn't help showing a sneer. Although he played countless games with Dennis Rodman, Shaquille O'Neal did not believe that relying on Dennis Rodman's defense , The Chicago Bulls were able to even out the [-]-point difference!
The effect of changing formations depends on the effect on the spot.

No one thought that, halfway through the third quarter, Shaquille O'Neal was defeated by Dennis Rodman's single defense and got scoreless!
Shaquille O'Neal hit Dennis Rodman four times in the low post, three hits and one turnover, much to the astonishment of Los Angeles Lakers fans!

Those who have watched the matchup between the two have to admit that Dennis Rodman has top-level defensive skills and is also born with supernatural power!
No matter how superb defensive skills are without strength, it’s useless. Although Dennis Rodman is only [-] meters, his height can just fit in Shaquille O’Neal’s waist-eye position. Shaquille O’Neal always feels that his Back hits don't work as well when hitting Dennis Rodman!
Kobe's defense against Michael Jordan still maintained a fairly high intensity, but Michael Jordan himself did not find the feeling of a mid-range shot.

The offensive burden of the Los Angeles Lakers fell entirely on Nick Van Exel and Elden Campbell. Although Alden Campbell could beat Tony Kukoc inside, he was defeated by Tony Kukoc on the defensive end. . Kukoc ranged the sieve.

After all, with Eldon Campbell's defensive habits, it is difficult for him to widen his defense beyond the three-point line.

After the official timeout, Wang Dazhi replaced Alden Campbell and played again. Before playing, coach Delmar Harris put forward many demands on him. Not only should he be wide on the defensive end, but he must also be brave enough to take responsibility on the offensive end.

Now the point difference is only seven points, and the atmosphere in the United Center arena is getting higher and higher. Wang Dazhi's task is very arduous!

However, Wang Dazhi wasn't too nervous about the situation. He wasn't even afraid of Rodman the worm. How could he be afraid of the audience's booing?
Toni Kukoc: "Use your housekeeping skills, DZ!

If you don't, you're going to be overtaken in no time. You know we won 88 games last year, and I have a really good nose for winning. "

As soon as Wang Dazhi came on stage, Toni Kukoc gave him a piece of advice.
