Chapter 308 Classic Reappearance
"Rodman chattered for a long time, and finally passed the ball outside. As soon as the pass was passed, he turned around and hugged Horry, spitting in his ear, and the speed of his speech was surprisingly fast."

"A camera in the best position followed Rodman's pass and quickly turned to the outside Warriors' receivers. No one, including the fans and referees, saw clearly what happened on Rodman's side. Suddenly Rodman fell Falling to the ground, hugging his head and howling loudly, Rodman, the big bug, felt as if he had been ravaged by a group of strong men all night, rolling around on the ground looked miserable."

"The referee could only blow the whistle immediately to stop the game. Warriors teammates Billups and McGrady rushed to Robert Horry, but they were stopped by Lakers players. Yao Ming and O'Neal also moved closer to the scene of the incident. Warriors captain Grant Hill kept talking to the referee and there was chaos."

"The live TV screen was replayed quickly, and the screens of several nearby camera positions were continuously called up. Finally, the director and playback personnel found the relatively clearest position. But the video was still obscured by people's heads, and only the Lakers player Robert Horry made an upward motion and made physical contact with Rodman, and everyone saw it."

"The NBA's on-site referees and assistant referees, surrounded by the scorer's table, kept watching what happened with earphones. The Warriors fans on the scene began to blow whistles and boo. The Warriors players and the Lakers players were divided into two circles. Stand there."

"The protagonist of the incident, Dennis Rodman, lay triumphantly on the floor in front of the Warriors' bench. The Warriors team doctor wore a white coat and carried a treatment box, and pierced Rodman's body with a gold needle in his hand. Deman's face, neck and arms, apart from his face full of extreme joy and satisfaction, I really can't see what fatal injury he just suffered to scream like that."

Rodman, who has been a reporter studying how to touch porcelain all day long, chose the angle, direction and timing perfectly. His accomplishments in flopping and drawing fouls have already surpassed the master level, even if the porcelain king Divac and later Martin Harden is no match.

The most fouls made by others are to cheat a foul and a free throw opportunity. It can only be said that it is a tactical operation. Rodman will not just do it for such a little extra. character of.

Of course, Shaquille O'Neal and the league's most popular rookie Kobe are more important, but Rodman will not go to find trouble to touch them, after all, they are all at the level of superstars, and there are too many eyes on them. In fact, playing against the Lakers It is not necessarily necessary to start with the OK combination.

The role of Robert Horry in the entire Lakers tactical system is far more important than his statistics. Many fans may think that the Lakers insiders Samaki Walker and Medvedenko performed well during the regular season. Hori is unremarkable.

But in the playoffs, Robert Horry's playing time soared, and he was the player with the third most playing time in the entire Lakers playoffs. The absolute main force, Rick Fox, and Derek Fisher, the fisherman, were not as good as Horry He played a lot of time, and the experienced Horry often saved the defeat at critical moments, helping the Lakers conquer one opponent's home court after another.

And Samaki Walker, who played a lot of playing time in the regular season, became a marginal role player in the playoffs. He always went up to play for a few minutes when the main players rested, and Medvedenko It is difficult to get a chance to play in the playoffs, and most of the time is sitting on the sidelines and dutifully guarding the drinking fountains.

Today is not an important moment in the playoffs. Why is it necessary for Rodman to do things like this?

This is a good question. Indeed, even if Horry is sentenced to a technical foul, it will not affect anything. It will basically not cause any damage to the regular season rankings. But the Warriors want to go to the end of the playoffs, and the Lakers will never be able to avoid it. A hurdle in the past, if you cross the past, you will be the championship, if you can't pass it, don't talk about anything.

Therefore, Dennis Rodman, who has hundreds of ball intelligence and emotional intelligence, is just a preview of the possible playoff drama. Even if the referee does not say anything today, the accumulated contradictions and reputation will be in the future. Playing a role, Rodman, as a true tactical master, knows when to do things better than most assistant coaches.

At the peak of the Bulls Dynasty, there were countless sets of tactics, and the complex moves and routines were complicated and brain-intensive. Even the diligent Michael Jordan, the god of basketball, admitted that he could not fully grasp and understand, but the Bulls Dynasty had a god-man who fully understood and understood The essence and esoteric meaning of the entire triangular tactic is Dennis Rodman, who looks loose, rough, well-developed, and simple-minded.

"The referee finally made a penalty. Robert Horry of the Lakers fouled once. There was no technical foul or malicious foul and he was sent off immediately. This made tens of thousands of Warriors fans very dissatisfied and booed loudly. Fans like this kind of occasion the most. , definitely have to put on a show.”

"The number of fouls for the Lakers is full. Dennis Rodman, the player who was fouled, got a second free throw opportunity. I saw him walking to the Lakers half with exaggerated duck steps, twisting and swinging, doing all kinds of funny moves from time to time, The smile on his face is like picking up millions of dollars for nothing."

"Dennis Rodman's free throws are really bad. If you want to say how bad it is, it must be a little better than Shaquille O'Neal, but it's just a little bit better. The average shooting rate is a little bit above 50%. If the Warriors With 1 minute left in the leading game, coach Lenny will definitely not put the big bug Rodman on the court, and the shark-killing tactics are as effective as killing Rodman."

"The big bug missed the first free throw and made a three-point shot. Even though Rodman shot and shot and aimed and aimed again, the ball brushed the net and went out of the baseline. The Warriors fans couldn't help laughing. Before the second free throw, Rodman I stuck out my tongue, sprayed some foam into my palms, rubbed my hands again, and pushed the ball out forcefully, and the free throw posture looked really awkward."

"A lightning figure in white rushed into the Lakers paint area, Rodman's free throw shot flew high, Grant Hill quickly inserted from outside the three-point line, dunked the ball in with one hand at the first time, squeezed each other The Lakers and Warriors players on the rebounds just stared dumbfounded as Hill slammed into the lane for a dunk from around the center circle."

"Zen Master Phil Jackson took the initiative to call a timeout, which is very rare. He replaced Robert Horry, who was full of displeasure, and replaced Samaki Walker. Horry, who is not calm, can't stay on the court at this time. In fact, the NBA arena is a river and lake, and any accident may happen at any time."
