Chapter 124 123: Before you blocked me, I was blocked(4/5)
Who knew that the ball did not go in but was intercepted?
Shay ran back and gave O'Neal a thumbs up:
"Your passing is really good, Xiao Yuyu. You are very good among centers. You can directly assist me in making quick plays. Not bad."
Just as O'Neal was about to retort, Barkley behind him spoke again:
"You go in, what's the matter? You're too tired to go in?"
Isn't it? There can't really be a center who can't even score, right?
Either you are too young or you are too weak!
It’s just you who can’t do it anyway!”
Shay and Barkley began to spray at O'Neal one after another.
Lakers 3D surround spray debut!
At this time, O'Neal, who had always been extremely arrogant, had nothing to say.
In front of the Lakers, no matter how arrogant you are, you have to shut up!
The game continued, and the Magic once again fed the ball to the Sharks this time. The Lakers still used their old defensive strategy and directly dragged the Sharks into the ocean of multi-player sports.
Shark is not a simple-minded player with well-developed limbs. He has a very high golf IQ.
So with the experience of being flanked last time, O'Neal passed the ball to Nick Anderson who was ambushing on the outside in advance this time.
Anderson clearly has a chance to shoot a three-pointer, but like most players in the 1990s, he had to step in and shoot 2 points.
In this day and age, this choice is quite normal.
But as soon as he came in, he was interfered by Sam Perkins who rushed out again.
Basketball strikes, O'Neal struggled to squeeze to the basket, trying to control the offensive rebounds like he did against the Bulls in the last game.
But Barkley kept struggling with O'Neal. He grabbed one of O'Neal's arms and prevented him from easily raising his hand to grab the ball.
Seeing O'Neal jump up, Barkley also jumped up at the same time and stuck his butt out in the air, shockingly pushing the huge O'Neal away!
Just like that, Barkley successfully protected the rebound, and the Lakers' inside didn't let the Sharks do whatever they wanted!
Barkley was determined to defend and grab rebounds today. He just wanted to let O'Neal know that men are not big enough to do whatever they want.
Short but also short and concise!
He wants to rectify the names of all short insiders!
O'Neal marveled at the terrifying power contained in Barkley's body, which was similar to Jordan's.
People used to say that Barkley grew up eating pig feed, but O'Neal thought it was just a joke.
But now he is convinced that Buckley grew up eating pig feed!
Put him in the same pigsty with other pigs, and the other pigs will starve to death!
After winning the basketball, Barkley handed the ball to Shay immediately.
Shea took two steps forward with the ball, then hit the ball to the ground and passed it to Perkins who cut in.
Perkins originally wanted to catch the ball and attack the frame, but the highly maneuverable Shark had already swam back to the basket and looked at Perkins with his teeth and claws open.
Perkins was shocked, so he braked and passed the ball back to Shea who was wandering to the bottom corner.
The moment Shay caught the basketball, he immediately started in fifth gear and passed Denis Scott with one giant step.
Shay's first step may not be very fast, but it is big enough. By the time you react, Shay has already surpassed you by half a body.
O'Neal also looked at Shay with a fierce look on his face, and turned around to help defend.
Although the Sharks lack some experience on the defensive end in their rookie year, their motivation is even higher than in their peak years.
The Sharks' defense has the same problem as Barkley.
It's not that he can't defend, but he's a bit lazy on the defensive end.
But the Shark didn't have this problem when he was a rookie. He really enjoyed the feeling of overturning all the incoming enemies.
O'Neal originally thought that he could definitely intimidate Shay.
Shay would not really seek death to challenge himself.
But Shay is not Perkins. He really took off resolutely under O'Neal's frontal blocking and Scott's pursuit and directly challenged Shaq!
O'Neal jumped up with all his strength, determined to make Shay look good.
But in the air, Shay took back the basketball and turned around and passed O'Neal!
After turning around and passing O'Neal in the air, Shea glided to the other side of the basket and gently lifted the ball up, and the basketball entered the net.
Faced with O'Neal's block, Shay made a 360° turn and pulled the lever!
This cool and wonderful layup made some Orlando fans couldn't help but stand up and applaud.
Sister Li, after all, the Magic have only been a team for a few years, and they don’t have many die-hard fans yet.
Temporary defections by Orlando fans are common.
Shea's goal helped the Lakers equalize the score and proved that the Sharks' defense was not impenetrable.
After Shea scored, he originally planned to go back to defense, but little did he know that O'Neal actually took the initiative to speak to Shea:
"Ah, what a fancy trick. If you have the ability, you can be like me and defeat your opponent head-on!"
Good guy, Perkins on the side called him a good guy.
Usually, if Shay doesn't take the initiative to talk to his opponents, his opponents will be thankful.
There are actually people who take the initiative to get sprayed by Shay?
Shay glanced at O'Neal, and the purple buckle badge was stirring:
"I agree to your request, Shaq. I hope you won't cry when the time comes."
After that, Shay continued to return to defense.
O'Neal clenched his fists, "Damn it, you are so arrogant!"
Didn't Jordan get dunked by me too? What's wrong with you guys?
In the second half of the game, the two teams were inextricably tied.
Although the Lakers have a perfect defensive strategy, this strategy does not always succeed.
In this era where there are stupid rules like illegal defense, double-teaming will take time no matter how quick it is.
O'Neal often took advantage of the double-team's absence to score goals with a hook, or passed the ball to Denise Scott and Skiles for three-pointers.
The Magic's lineup during this period was quite friendly to O'Neal.
In addition to O'Neal himself, several of the other teammates in the starting five are good at three-pointers.
Among them, Denise Scott averaged 5 three-pointers per game and shot 40% from three-point range!
He is one of the rare stable three-point shooters in this era.
As for the Lakers, although Barkley spent too much on the defensive end and rebounding today, he was not particularly active on the offensive end.
But thanks to Shea's organization and personal scoring, the offensive momentum has never stagnated.
Shay also contributed two pull-up layups in front of the Sharks.
Seeing Shay floating in front of him again and again without being able to cover it up, the shark also felt itchy.
Of course, Shay was not satisfied with this. He also wanted to find an opportunity to dunk the shark head-on.
Just like that, with 3 minutes left in the first quarter, the Magic trailed the Lakers by 2 points.
At this point, it's time for both sides to make substitutions.
O'Neal didn't want to end up behind, and he didn't want to look like he was being outgunned by Shea and Barkley.
So this time he attacked very resolutely and sank to a very deep position.
Although Barkley was very powerful, he was a bit overwhelmed even after holding up O'Neal for a whole quarter.
This time, after O'Neal caught the basketball, Feizhu still took a big step back when O'Neal suddenly pushed back.
O'Neal reached the basket and made a fake hook shot, but Barkley didn't stumble and just stood there with his arms raised.
Seeing this situation, O'Neal simply gave up and tried to dunk with one hand directly across from Barkley who raised his arms!
It's true that Barkley bounces very fast, but when he wanted to jump, he was pinned down by O'Neal and couldn't jump at all.
O'Neal succeeded in dunking so easily, and Barkley evened the score with a dunk!
Barkley was knocked down and sat on the ground. O'Neal stared at Barkley condescendingly, raised his arms, and patted his muscles:
"Your defense is nothing more than that Charles!"
Then, O'Neal glanced at Shay: "Did you see it? This is called a frontal attack. I'm not like you hiding in the air!"
One Shay and one Jordan. One was hiding and hiding in the air, and the other was hesitating in the air.
