Chapter 1,382 I disagree

Phil Jackson, born on September 17, 1945, 2.03 meters tall. Graduated from the University of North Dakota. In 1967, he was selected by the New York Knicks with the 17th pick in the second round, from the 1967-1968 season to 1978-1979.

During the season, he played for the New York Knicks for 11 years and the New Jersey Nets for 2 years. He won the 1973 NBA championship with the Knicks and was selected to the 1968 All-Rookie Team. Due to his deep interest in Eastern philosophy, especially Zen Buddhism

, he is also often called "Zen Master" by the media.

In Phil Jackson's view, today's Los Angeles Lakers are the most powerful team he has ever seen. At the center, they have the giant "Shark" O'Neal in history, and at the power forward, they have the strongest power forward in history.

——Karl Malone, this inside combination is invincible, at least this year.

On the outside, although Payton is old, he still has a lot of power. Coupled with Kobe Bryant, who is known as the strongest shooting guard in the NBA after Jordan, he is second to none in the league in terms of defensive power and offensive power. As for the only weakness - small

At the forward position, Phil Jackson is not worried at all. There are already "Four Kings" on the court. For this position, it only needs to be equipped with a blue-collar player with solid basic skills, no big defensive holes, and a good three-point shot. And this kind of

Players in the NBA are everywhere.

Finally, coupled with his unique "triangle offense", it was enough to sweep the NBA.

Of course, the reason why this team is not perfect enough is because of the discord between O'Neal and Kobe. It is not a discord in personality, but a discord in power. A team can only have

A boss. In the first two years, O'Neal was the well-deserved boss. That is undisputed. However, in the past two years, Kobe Bryant has risen rapidly and has become one of the league's top stars. Naturally, he will no longer condescend to the "ten thousand years old".

two".

Although the discord between the two gave Phil Jackson a headache. Fortunately, for Phil Jackson, who practices Zen Buddhism, this problem is not difficult to solve. As long as he keeps winning, this problem will not disappear.

Exploded. As the Sharks age and Kobe Bryant matures, this problem will be solved.

Of course, the premise is that you must keep winning. But with the current configuration of the Los Angeles Lakers, it is not difficult to keep winning.

Phil Jackson glanced at the situation on the court. It was already halfway through the third quarter. The Los Angeles Lakers were constantly harassed by the Houston Rockets using "heart attack tactics", and the score was gradually narrowed. Fortunately, the strong strength of "f4"

It's not that easy to defeat. Although O'Neal and Kobe are already a bit incompatible on the court, their strength is still there. Coupled with the efforts of Malone and Payton, they still lead the Houston Rockets by 6 points.

No matter what Jordan is doing at the moment, it is still best to expand the score first! - Phil Jackson thought silently in his heart.

For the Los Angeles Lakers in front of us, in Phil Jackson's view, the only one who can possibly defeat them is the omnipotent "God" whom he once coached - Michael Jordan. Although in the past two years, Michael Jordan's

His old age is becoming more and more obvious, but Phil Jackson, who knows Michael Jordan very well, deeply understands that Michael Jordan may no longer be able to dominate a game, but the strength to dominate a game is still there. In order to avoid

If there is another incident or any sudden change, it is better to deal with the Houston Rockets as soon as possible.

Mayfair Jackson stood up and made a substitution gesture, replacing Kobe Bryant.

Kobe Bryant frowned. Now was the most stalemate of the game, but Phil Jackson replaced him. Obviously, in Phil Jackson's heart, O'Neal was still more important. Thinking of this, Kobe felt unhappy.

He has tried his best to prove that he is more suitable to lead this team, but in the eyes of Phil Jackson, no matter how much he does, he is still not as good as O'Neal.

Although it is said that having a great center can bring championships, the Michael Jordan era defeated the best center era in history as a defender. If Michael Jordan can do it, he can do it too. However, the Philippines

Why didn't Phil Jackson give him a chance? - Thinking of this, Kobe felt an unknown anger in his heart. Therefore, he didn't talk to Phil Jackson when he came off the field, he just put on a turban and sat there with his head down.

Phil Jackson secretly shook his head. Today's Kobe Bryant is hardly the same as Michael Jordan at his peak in terms of skills and winning mentality, but his outlook on the overall situation is not as good as Michael Jordan's. The Rockets' weakness on the court now is in the paint.

Facing the combination of O'Neal and Malone, it is simply impossible to resist. On the outside, the combination of James and Wade is enough to freeze Kobe Bryant. At this time, it is natural to choose to attack the inside.

Originally, Phil Jackson wanted to comfort Kobe, but after thinking about it, he might not be able to please him if he came forward at this time, so he gave up the idea. Anyway, as long as the team can keep winning, then this "ok" combination will be

Always united.

At this time, although the Los Angeles Lakers were missing Kobe Bryant on the court, the ball was playing more smoothly. The score also gradually opened up amid alternating changes. By the end of the third quarter, the score had already widened.

to 10 minutes.

"Lin, the team seems to be in trouble. Someone needs to step forward now. Where is Jordan, where is he?" Jessica Alba, who was watching the scene and was worried, asked with concern.

As long as you are a senior fan, you can see that the current situation of the Houston Rockets is not good. After the Los Angeles Lakers lacked Kobe and the offense became smoother, the Houston Rockets did not have any good solutions. The inside line was destroyed to pieces, and originally

The outside line that should have been open did not perform well because James and Wade were too nervous. If not for the running out of time in the third quarter, the score might have been extended to more than 10 points.

A first-year student, after all, is a first-year student, but he is still too young! - Lin Feng sighed.

James and Wade, who just entered the league this year, are really too immature. If they were the two of them three years later, I'm afraid the game would be completely different. Unfortunately, they are still too immature now.

Looking at the jubilant Los Angeles Lakers camp in the distance, Lin Feng frowned. What should we do now? If this situation continues, I am afraid that the score will continue to widen after the start of the fourth quarter.

Just when Lin Feng was worried, the fourth quarter began. Just as Lin Feng was worried, O'Neal successfully hit the inside at the beginning of the game, causing a 2+1 foul, and the score widened to 13 points. On the contrary,

James' strong attack failed due to Malone's interference. Facing the most powerful power forward in history, Karl Malone, James' proud and strong body could not take any advantage.

Then O'Neal succeeded in another strong attack. The current Yao Ming could not guard against the Shark in his peak period, and the score was opened to 15 points. After that, Wade used his speed to break through, but in a hurry, he was intercepted by Payton, but due to

Wade was too fast. After Payton stole the ball, he failed to control the basketball. As a result, the basketball went out of bounds and went to the Houston Rockets.

The entire audience was filled with sighs. All the Lakers fans present knew that if this ball was scored again, the outcome of this game would be completely decided! Unfortunately, it was just a small difference.

Payton looked at his hands in annoyance. The outcome of this game was originally determined, but unfortunately at the last moment, he used a little too much force and the basketball went out of bounds. However, this was also because Wade was too fast, otherwise he would not have gone out of bounds.

Looking at Wade, who also looked annoyed, Payton also sighed in his heart. This kid, and the strongest high school student in history, will probably be the protagonists of the NBA in the future. The Houston Rockets really selected a few good players.

Ah! The future belongs to the Houston Rockets!

But for now, they still belong to the Los Angeles Lakers. Before O'Neal gets old, the Los Angeles Lakers are unmatched! - Payton said proudly.

Start serving again. However, after James failed to hit the ball and Payton stole it, it was obvious that Wade and others were a little depressed, and this was directly reflected on the court. The breakthrough was not good, the pass was inaccurate, and finally a sloppy outside shot

The shot failed. Naturally, the ball didn't go in either.

Fortunately, O'Neal's hard hit didn't hit this time. The battle happened again in another location. When he saw Billups starting to waver with the ball, Rudy Tomjanovich quickly called a timeout. Now on the court

The players' emotions are obviously not right. If they don't call a timeout and are beaten by the opponent, it will really be over.

After calling the players to his side, Tomjanovich gave some inflammatory encouragement, but James, Wade, Yao Ming and others were still dejected. Obviously, coach Tomjanovich's encouragement was in vain.

Young players are young players. It is easy to be passionate and easy to slack off. - Tomjanovich's helpless sigh.

"Come on! Guys, don't let this game become a regret in your life. Yao Ming, play bravely, it doesn't matter if you foul! Boozer, you must help Yao Ming defend O'Neal. James, you are the strongest little boy

Forward, be decisive. Wade, your speed is unmatched, you have to use your strengths. Billups, you are the only veteran player on the field, don't let me down!" Seeing the timeout time is approaching, Tomja

Norwich hurriedly ordered. But I don't know how effective these words will be.

As the timeout whistle ended, players from both sides took the field again. However, to Tomjanovich's disappointment, the players still showed no improvement and their playing was still extremely raw.

"Pop!" With a loud bang, O'Neal made a shocking block and knocked James away with a tomahawk dunk!

The scene was suddenly filled with cheers like a tsunami!

Awesome, so awesome! O'Neal's move was so awesome. But for the Houston Rockets players, it is undoubtedly shocking news. If James can score this dunk, it may be able to change the situation on the court and improve the morale of the Rockets players.

.It is a pity that O'Neal has been slapped away now. It can be said that it has caused an immeasurable blow to the morale of the Rockets players.

Definitely win! - Mayfair Jackson smiles.

There was also a sound around the lake in Staples Arena, celebrating that the Los Angeles Lakers were about to enter the Finals.

Lin Feng's face was ashen. He didn't expect that the game would turn out like this. Did he really overestimate the strength of James, Wade and others?

"Haha, Smith, look, I say the Los Angeles Lakers must win! The Los Angeles Lakers in front of us can almost be called the strongest in history." Barkley laughed wildly. But for some reason, Barkley felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

There is a vague feeling of loss.

Smith also sighed. This season belongs to the Los Angeles Lakers. As for the Houston Rockets, the future belongs to them. It's just a pity that veterans such as Michael Jordan will be disappointed again.

But at this moment, the Staples Center, which was originally roaring like a tsunami, suddenly fell silent. All fans looked in one direction—the locker room of the Houston Rockets players.

A man wearing the Houston Rockets No. 23 jersey stood there silently with a turban on his head. Although he didn't say a word, everyone could feel a strong fighting spirit emanating from him.

, standing there like a god of war.

Michael Jordan, that's Michael Jordan, he's back! - everyone exclaimed.

Since the beginning of the second half, everyone, whether fans, players, coaches, or reporters, thought that Jordan was exhausted or had given up the game. Unexpectedly, Jordan appeared at this time. At the most difficult moment of the Houston Rockets,

He appeared.

Is he finally here? - Mayfair Jackson's heart skipped a beat.

For some reason, Phil Jackson felt that the Jordan in front of him was extremely strange and familiar at the same time. This was a very strange feeling, and this feeling made Phil Jackson a little uneasy.

At this time, Jordan moved. Stepping on the heartbeats of all the fans, he walked step by step to the Houston Rockets bench, looked at coach Tomjanovich, and slowly said four words - I want to play!

Hearing these four words, the five Houston Rockets players on the court suddenly relaxed. In the second half, relying on them to support the Houston Rockets made them too tired. Facing the powerful Los Angeles Lakers, they could hardly breathe.

Collapse. Now that Jordan is here, it will be fine.

Michael, haven't you given up yet? At the age of 42, facing your strongest opponent in history with 9 minutes left in the game and a 15-point difference, haven't you given up yet! - Phil Jackson also

stood up.

Malone and Payton also looked at Michael Jordan. Since entering the 1990s, in the past 10 years, Michael Jordan has been standing in front of them, blocking their dream of winning the championship. Does Michael Jordan still want to block it today?

They!

No, they will definitely let Jordan destroy their only dream again! - Malone and Payton roared, their eyes shining with shocking light.

At this time, Wade has automatically come to the sidelines, ready to replace Jordan.

But at this moment, Lin Feng stood up.
Chapter completed!
