"..." Zhang Hao was drinking Gatorade, but he really didn't expect O'Neal to come and ask this.

What other evil rituals are there? You evil ghost!

Zhang Hao, who was upset that he had not turned on "Kobe Time" just now, looked at O'Neal, and was so angry that he was so angry!

The teammates watching the group of Rentou Horses could not help laughing.

Zhang Hao took another sip of Gatorade, swallowed it, and showed seriousness in his eyes, and asked O'Neal: "Is it ok?"

"ah?"

"I'll ask if your feet are numb?"

O'Neal reacted, stamped his feet, nodded and responded: "A little."

"That's right."

“???”

Looking at O'Neal's face confused, Rick Fox smiled and said, "Aix asked you to use the stomp movement to deceive the opponent and you want to pick-and-roll and cut in. He can use your threat to easily score one-on-one."

O'Neal recalled that it was true. When Zhang Hao took action, he immediately moved to the inside line and prepared to snatch it. Ma Long was on his snatch line every time.

But why is this? His fat man has such a great deterrent power, and he is afraid of stomping his feet?

It’s not that O’Neal’s ball quotient is low, but that he doesn’t know how to pick and roll at all, and he has never thought about this.

O'Neal stomped his feet in the free throw line on the right side of the three-second zone, and he could trick the opponent into several rounds in a row, which is actually related to O'Neal's rushing consciousness and rushing ability.

When he saw Zhang Hao going to shoot, O'Neal rushed in and prepared to rob. It seemed that he was preparing to run back after pick-and-roll without the ball. Although O'Neal did not have that awareness, the impact on the Jazz's defense was like this when Zhang Hao played singles.

The main thing is that the Jazz's pick-and-roll defense ability is too strong.

The official suspension is about to end. Silver Fox has arranged targeted detailed adjustments on the defensive end, and Zhang Hao came to the technical station to wipe magnesium powder.

"Smart people, who are extremely excellent in some aspects, are better deceived. When they see that the other party has the pick-and-roll opportunity they think, the other party makes corresponding moves, and naturally they take the bait..."

...

After the official timeout, the Lakers replaced Kenny Anderson, and Doug Christie, Brent Barry, Zhang Hao and O'Neal played.

The Jazz sent Stockton, Hornersek, Brian Russell, Malone and Ostertag.

The Jazz team is still Malone's main player, driving the entire team's offense.

The Lakers play more easily, O'Neal rushing, O'Neal, Doug Christie, Brent Barry plays defense, Doug Christie and Brent Barry will shoot decisively if they have the chance, and whether they enter or not depends on their fate.

Zhang Hao and Kenny Anderson play singles in the main attack!

The main reason is that Zhang Hao scored in singles. Kenny Anderson is more stable and lacks explosions, so Lakers fans always miss Van Exel.

Of course, Kenny Anderson won the championship last year at least would not be disliked.

In the second half of the third quarter, Zhang Hao made 3 of 7 shots, 2 of 6 singles, 2+1 in singles, and a counterattack fast break dunk, boosted morale, scored two points, and scored 7 points, Kenny Anderson scored 3 points, and O'Neal once Brent Barry missed a three-pointer, and the Lakers scored 12 points in half a quarter.

As for the Jazz, they scored 15 points in the second half of the third quarter.

After the third quarter, the Lakers trailed the Jazz 65-70 by 5 points!

Zhang Hao also tried to play "stomp tactics" with O'Neal again. Unfortunately, Zhang Hao encountered Malone defense. Malone defended the Jazz's strongest, so he restricted Zhang Hao's shooting. Zhang Hao wanted to break through. O'Neal and Ostag were both there at the basket. Two big clumps are too easy to attack Zhang Hao and restrict Zhang Hao from scoring O'Neal. O'Neal pulled out to "pick-and-roll". The Jazz didn't care at all. O'Neal didn't shoot mid-range shots, so he had to cut in.

Although the Jazz failed to truly understand the "pick-roll cooperation" between Zhang Hao and O'Neal, they just blocked the pick-roll effect.

However, the Jazz's strategy was implemented well, but they just didn't really defend the three All-Stars of the Lakers!

The Jazz's defense was very good in the third quarter, but the Lakers still scored 20 points in a single quarter, and their Jazz's offense was also limited, with only 24 points in a single quarter, and they could not really widen the gap!

At the last period of rest, Sloan could only let Malone go down and rest for a while.

If it is ordinary, the opponents who are less likely to play against the inside singles player are weaker, Malone can play the whole game, but Malone defends Zhang Hao, O'Neal, Zhang Hao, and the three of them take turns tonight. At the offensive end, Malone scored 14 points in the first half, 12 points in the third quarter, 26 points and 6 assists in the third quarter. If he continued to play in the fourth quarter, Malone, who played for 30 minutes in the first three quarters, probably would not be able to hold on at the last moment. Compared with Malone's lack of energy at the last moment, Sloan chose to take a gamble and let Malone rest at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

The good news is that O'Neal and Malone played the same playing time as Malone. They played for the first quarter and the third quarter, had a 6-minute break in the second quarter, and played for 30 minutes in the first three quarters. The defensive end was actively making up for defense and protecting the frame at the middle and close range. The offensive end was more harder than Malone, and the "pick-and-roll offense".

Sloan sent Stockton, Shanton Anderson, Brian Russell, Anthony Carter, and Greg Foster.

As Sloan expected, the Silver Fox sent a combination of Kenny Anderson, Brent Barry, Brian Shaw, Jason Williams and Zhang Hao.

The Silver Fox is now pointing at the dead child who has been holding his jersey while resting during the holidays.

In the first three quarters, Zhang Hao made 25 shots, 12 of 25 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers, plus 8 of 10 free throws, 33 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 1 block!

Pointing at Zhang Hao, it was not that Silver Fox felt that the others were not performing well enough, but in fact he was very satisfied with the performance of the whole team tonight.

O'Neal played 30 minutes in the third quarter, 14 points and 13 rebounds, Jason Williams played 17 minutes, 2 points and 7 rebounds, Kenny Anderson scored 9 points and 2 assists, and other players worked very hard on the defensive end...

It’s just that in such a game, the Jazz players are more experienced and the role players have a slightly better shooting stability, so the Jazz have a slight lead.

This does not mean that the others of the Lakers performed poorly. Without O'Neal and Jason Williams, 8 offensive rebounds in three quarters, and they worked together to win 20 rebounds. How could Zhang Hao throw 25 times?

Including the free throws accounted for 5 rounds of attack, Zhang Hao made an average of more than 10 shots per quarter!

Tonight, everyone in their own team will do different things.

When Malone just ran away in the last game with 50+ in a single game, her offensive performance was amazing tonight. When they made 10 of 16 shots, they scored 26 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals, it was already very good that they could keep the score tight.

And, they have people to look forward to...

Zhang Hao received a system prompt, felt his physical strength recovering, spit out his jersey, and walked onto the stadium.

In the first half of the third quarter, "Kobe Time" was not activated, and I was a little upset. If Kobe Time was activated that time, there would be three rounds in the second half of the third quarter, and I might have turned the situation over.

However, the unexpected opportunity was not seized. Now, the opportunity he really planned has come!

He clenched the score in the first half of the third quarter, leaving Malone with no chance to rest in the second half of the third quarter. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the planned opportunity appeared!

"System boss, turn on Kobe time!"

“Bryant time (Bronze) has been opened.

Object of use: Zhang Hao.

Target: Zhang Hao will shoot the Lakers three offenses in the next three, and all of them will need to hit..."

...

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers attacked first.

Zhang Hao came to the top arc and leaned against Anthony Carter to catch the ball, turned around and broke into the basket!

Entering the free throw line, Zhang Hao grabbed the ball and took three big steps, faster than the second half of the third quarter! Shandon Anderson, who was blocking it at the first time, decisively moved away.

This game is about dignity, playoff rankings, and the record of the Lakers, but it is not about fighting to the death...

Zhang Hao went straight to the basket faster than Greg Foster expected. He had no time to stop it, and he couldn't even dodge it... "Bang", Zhang Hao smashed the ball into the basket through Greg Foster!

Just Jason Williams reacted quickly and ran out of the bottom line in time...

This is Zhang Hao's opportunity. Ma Long, a player who assisted in defense and supplemented defense in the middle and close range in the first few days of the league, was not here. He, Zhang, himself, has recovered his energy from the break and can continue to sprint!

In the third quarter, he made 12 shots in a single quarter and got a higher score than in the first and second quarters, because he assigned the concentrated output of physical strength that should be properly distributed to the entire second half in the third quarter.

For example, Iverson is that players with similar strength can always play better when they fight.

67 to 70, the Lakers narrowed the gap to 3 points.

The gap in the fourth quarter narrowed at the beginning and did not continue to expand. The gap within 5 points means that the situation is still anxious.

The Jazz offense, Stockton and Brian Russell picked and roll, Stockton made a three-pointer after pick-and-roll... hit!

Stockton has been fighting tonight, and has made 14 shots so far, making 8 of 14 shots, including 3 of 4 three-pointers, plus 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 21 points!

It was the Lakers' offense again, and it did not start from the top arc as in the previous round. Zhang Hao ran through half the game and noticed the change in the opponent's defensive position. He waved to Jason Williams and pointed to the right side of the three-second zone. Zhang Hao came to the right side of the free throw line and leaned against Anthony Carter to ask for the ball.

Stockton directly attacked Zhang Hao after Kenny Anderson lifted the ball to Zhang Hao, and Zhang Hao could only really rush into the basket.

Does Jason Williams really have pick-and-roll ability or top pick-and-roll ability? Cut in as soon as possible, but Zhang Hao really broke in. Jason Williams quickly retreated, still causing trouble for Zhang Hao's breakthrough. Greg Foster and Anthony Carter attacked the inside. Zhang Hao jumped against the defense, tried his best to avoid it, leaned forward... His upper body came out of the other side of the basket, avoided the defense, and tried his best to follow the feeling and threw the ball to the back of his head...

"Forbidden Zone Hegemony (Bronze)" triggers!

The moment he took action, Zhang Hao felt that his hand should be lifted up a little more. In the midst of lightning, he did not hesitate and lifted his hand up a little more when he threw the ball out.

The ball flew high, hit the upper edge of the rebound, and fell down... in the middle of the frame!

Zhang Hao, who landed on the ground, slid for a distance on the floor, jumped up and retreated amid the irritating cheers of the fans at the scene.

This can be entered!

The Stockton of Jason Williams who was playing hard and was about to rob, looked at Zhang Hao's figure turning around and retreating, and it felt incredible!

In his rookie year, Zhang Hao was already very powerful. He had a strong burst and scoring ability. He led the team to the first place in the Western Conference and was directly selected for the first time. Every time the Jazz played against Zhang Hao in the 95-96 season, Stockton could feel the progress of Zhang Hao compared to the last match.

This is the 97-98 season, and he can still feel the progress of Zhang Hao compared to the last match in every fight.

If Zhang Hao enters the NBA like Duncan, he will have the hard strength of the top five in the league, and Stockton feels better. Seeing Zhang Hao keep improving, there is no sign of stopping, it is really torture!

Fortunately, his mentality is much better than Ma Long.

It's the Jazz's offense again, Stockton still chose to come on his own. Currently, the Lakers' main defense is Hornersek, and they are not doing a good job in the top arc defense. Stockton continues to choose to pick-and-roll and shoot three-pointers...

But didn't enter!

That's now!

Jason Williams has long received instructions that O'Neal will not grab defensive rebounds, so as to help Zhang Hao get the position.
To be continued...
