Chapter 301 300: When Shay realized that he had to score 40 points every game to win the game.

Shea knocked Drexler straight into retirement in the second round and did not allow Olajuwon to win even a single victory.

Barkley made the Utah Jazz pay with blood in the second round, causing Karl Malone, a first-team forward, to be humiliated by a third-team forward.

Overall, both men performed very hard.

So people say that if Barkley and Shea didn't have conflicts, the Lakers would probably be fighting for five consecutive championships now!

But there are no ifs in a basketball game.

Moreover, basketball is not a game where 1+1 is definitely equal to 2.

In the original history, the OK team, which was invincible on paper, first lost to the Spurs in 2003 and then the Pistons in 2004. How do you explain that?

In 2011, the top five players in the two leagues plus an All-Star team have never played a group of veterans. How do you explain it?

The No. 1 player in the Eastern Conference who had been invincible for 23 years was swept by the eighth gentleman led by a short hand. How do you explain it?

Therefore, even if Shay and Barkley really don't separate, they may not be able to win five consecutive championships.

Now there are no ifs between Shay and Barkley, only victory or defeat!

The two toughest stars in the Western Conference are about to start their second battle!

Since the two teams played very fiercely last season, most media also predicted that this year's Western Conference finals will start with at least six games.

It’s not surprising that we reached the tiebreaker.

During the regular season, although the Lakers and Suns were 3-1, the Suns only won once.

But it's still better than a braised egg that never beat the Lakers in the regular season.

Winning once is enough to show that the Suns have the possibility of winning!

Moreover, the Suns' strength this season has grown in a step-by-step manner.

As Tianzun becomes more integrated into the team, Hill and Webb become more mature as the season progresses, and the Suns' strength continues to grow.

The two sides met for the first time in the regular season this year. Barkley was absent because he injured his eyes while attending the concert. This game can be ignored.

In the Christmas game, Shea scored 22 points in the third quarter and scored 46 points in the game to defeat the Suns.

But when they met in February, the Lakers narrowly defeated the Suns by only 6 points.

When they met again in March, the Lakers lost the game against the Suns for the first time.

Therefore, the Suns are a thriving team this season, the kind that gets bigger the more they play!

And Barkley is a leader who combines toughness, passion, and blood.

Everyone saw how he fought back after Stockton hit a buzzer beater on him in the last round.

In front of Shay, Barkley can definitely burst out with more powerful power!

Therefore, Shay's attitude before the game made some media very unhappy.

The sun is so strong, but Shay said that the game will be over soon. Isn't this too arrogant?

You haven't even won the second consecutive championship, do you really think you are already the best in the league?

Many media outlets, especially those in Phoenix, which had long been at odds with Shea, began to criticize Shea.

But Shay turned a deaf ear to this, he only wanted to speak with actions!

In this way, this Western Conference Finals has become quite the focus.

Stern was probably laughing so hard. In the Eastern Conference, there was the Bulls vs. the new Knicks, and there was Jordan vs. the Sharks.

In the West, the Lakers VS Suns, and Shai versus the Flying Pigs.

It’s all about focus!

The ratings for this year’s playoffs are likely to reach a new high!

Moreover, there will definitely be at least six games in these two rounds. The league is making a lot of money hahahaha!

As expected, ticket prices at the Great West Forum for Game 1 of the series were more than three times the regular season average.

But there was still no one absent from the scene.

The TV ratings also far exceeded those of the Western Conference semifinals.

In the first game of this powerful matchup, the Lakers showed the strength of the 72-win team.

Throughout the game, the Lakers played against the Suns.

And the most shameful thing today is that Shea chose to defend Hill instead of Barkley.

As a result, Barkley was defended by second-year Finley and his shooting rate was less than 45%!

Although Finley couldn't withstand the Flying Pigs, he could still keep up with the Flying Pigs and interfere with the Flying Pigs' shooting.

Barkley's mid-range jumper was unstable today, and once he broke through, he was easily double-teamed by Mutombo and Rodman.

Although both Webb and Roaring Sky have shooting abilities, their shooting skills in the first game were only average, and their shooting accuracy was far from the level that could kill the game.

On the other hand, Shea scored 41 points in a chopping manner, and limited Grant Hill to only 13 points.

In the end, the Lakers won the first game at home with an 11-point advantage, leading the series 1-0!

After winning the first battle, the media in Phoenix were collectively silent.

Because judging from his performance in this battle, Shay is really much better than Barkley!

In this battle, Barkley will undoubtedly take the blame for the Suns' loss.

Although Hill's scoring and shooting percentage are lower than Barkley, considering that it is Shea who is guarding him, everything seems to be understandable.

How many players in this world can score efficiently on Shay's head?

But Barkley was different. He was not able to completely defeat Finley without being marked by Shea.

This pot cannot be thrown away no matter what.

The next day, Mrs. Zhu broke the news:

"After Charles returned to the hotel, he didn't hand in his homework, didn't want to get up or even eat. He felt that he had let the entire Phoenix down."

Buckley was indeed a little depressed. He came with high ambitions, but was beaten to pieces. This was a kind of torture for the fiercely competitive Buckley.

The media even joked: "Charles may become the second star after Drexler to be beaten by Shea until he retires."

Ah Hua: Don’t talk about it again, don’t mention it again!

However, anyone who knows Barkley knows that Barkley cannot be defeated so easily.

He may be depressed for a day, but after that, Barkley will definitely regain his strength!

Think about how he took revenge on Jazz before. He would never just watch Finlay and Shay ride on his head.

Sure enough, just like Barkley made the Jazz pay with blood. In G2 of the series, the flying pig in the sky immediately showed his pointed fangs!

In the second game of the series, everyone thought that Feizhu, whose mentality was shattered, would sink.

As a result, he scored 38 points in the game!

In this game, Barkley was like a tank crushing a car, completely crushing Finley's defense.

And as soon as the first quarter started, Barkley took a bloody shot from Mutombo, showing his determination to win.

At that time, Shea pushed for a counterattack, but because there were two people in front of him, Barkley and Grant Hill, blocking the ball, he was unable to speed up the push.

After reaching the basket, Shea saw that there was no chance to attack the frame, so he passed the ball behind his head and gave the opportunity to Mutombo who followed up.

After receiving the basketball, Mutombo took advantage of his height advantage and jumped directly under the basket to prepare for a dunk. However, Barkley jumped up from the front and reached out to block the basket, blocking Mutombo's powerful one-handed dunk.

buckle!

After all, he is the only person less than 2 meters tall who can risk O'Neal's blood from the front, and it is no problem to risk Mutombo!

This goal is enough to show how hard Barkley worked on the defensive end today.

This block also kicked off the Fliggy's crazy revenge against the Lakers!

Barkley not only worked hard on the defensive end today, but also excelled on the offensive end.

In the last game, he lost the game because of his unfavorable defensive attack against Finley.

Therefore, in this battle, Barkley showed no mercy on the offensive end.

The first is that Barkley is no longer strong in the mid-range today.

Secondly, the Suns changed their tactical strategy, not allowing Barkley to play Finley alone with the ball, but letting Barkley play without the ball.

Let Weber hold the ball instead!

Webber holding the ball means that he will be positioned further outside, which can pull Rodman, a help-defense madman, out.

All Barkley has to do is make air cuts to attack the frame again and again!
