After the game, all the media agreed that the Lakers won the championship. Some experts thought that it was difficult for the Pacers to win a game. Not only was the inside line suppressed by O'Neal, but the outside attack was also in a mess.
Pacers star Reggie Miller played 41 minutes in the first game. He made 1-for-16 shots, 3-out-of-3-pointer, 5-out-of-5 free throws, and got 7 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists. He was clearly an undercover.
In Guo Xu's previous life, even after 18 years, there are still many old and thin Miller on the Internet, saying that he is a legendary star, the best pitcher in history, the enemy of Jordan's life and so on
As "the enemy of Jordan's life", Miller has been selected as an all star five times in his career, and has only one start. Personal honor is the three best three, other such as MVP, championship, best defense, scoring king and other big honors are not.
Even a fifth of Jordan's accolades have gone to Miller, who has only played in the Eastern Conference finals twice and one finals. 18 years career average 18.1 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 3-point shooting rate of 39.5%, 4.7 shots hit 1.8 three-point ball. His three-point shooting rate in the playoffs was even lower, only 39%, and 2.2 of 5.7 shots.
The real reason why Miller is famous is that he is bad. He has no cover up, rambling rubbish words, and has quarrels with referees, star players and the top management of the team. His ubiquitous vulgarity makes him a "public enemy of the whole people" in the hearts of fans.
Such a person to do the boss, when the example, the pacer player can be better?
In game two, they got Kobe. Kobe's game is full of toughness, attack and defense both ends of the game, as long as OK combination, the Pacers have no chance.
Kobe Bryant left the field after 9 minutes, sprained his ankle when he landed the jump shot.
Guo Xu knows that Kobe's injury is not an accident, but that Jay Ross deliberately stepped up. Ross, the previous life, talked about it in 2012, admitting he was deliberately hurting Kobe. "If I were to decide, he would not be able to play the whole series, so I would have a championship ring, which I did on purpose, you can't say it was an accident," he said
As an onlooker, Guo Xu felt that rose's behavior was disgusting. At this time, he swore in his heart that he would never "take the initiative" to attack his opponent on the basketball court. It would be hard to say if the other party started first.
Without Kobe, the Lakers still won. Shaquille O'Neal played 46 minutes, 11 out of 18 shots, 39 free throws and 18 free throws, setting the NBA record for a single free throw. He scored 40 points, 24 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 blocks. The Pacers had two men in the interior, six out of 18, and one made five.
Outside Harper seems to have suddenly returned to youth, 37 minutes, 12 shots 8, 3-point 2 1, free throw 4, cut 21 points 3 rebounds 6 assists.
Guo Xu is very depressed for this, Harper this is the rhythm that will occupy the starting position next season.
Kobe's foot injury is not light, failed to participate in the third game, the Lakers lost to the Pacers away.
After the game, coach Phil Jackson revealed that Kobe asked the coach team to send him to play before the third game, but his ankle hurt so much that he could only rely on the strength of his toes to stand up. Jackson felt that this was a pure death, which was likely to aggravate the injury, so he suspended him.
Before the fourth game, although Kobe Bryant's foot injury was not healed and continued to ask for the competition, Jackson decided to take the risk this time. If the Pacers pull two games in a row, the game will change.
Pacers center Rick Schmitz scored 4 goals in a row after the start, and the Pacers quickly took the lead, opening a 10 point gap at the end of the first quarter.
Kobe was obviously affected by the foot injury, he only got 6 points in the first half. And Kobe and O'Neal are in foul crisis, two in the second quarter before the end of five minutes were blown the third foul.
However, the Pacers failed to take advantage of this opportunity to further expand the lead, Kobe Bryant recovered in the third quarter to get 10 points, leading the Lakers to exceed the score.
The fourth quarter entered a stalemate, O'Neal contributed 14 points, Pacers ace Reggie Miller got 13 points, the two sides draw into overtime. One minute after the start of extra time, the Lakers were in big trouble, and Shaquille O'Neal left the game six times.
Live game commentators are not optimistic about the Lakers, the critical moment, with injuries to play Kobe has carried the team.
Jackson changed his tactics decisively. Instead of playing triangle offense, he gave the ball to Kobe and opened up as much space as possible.
Kobe didn't disappoint Jackson. He hit three jump shots in two minutes. The Lakers scored 16 points in overtime, with 8 points from Kobe. Miller missed three points in the last minute, and the Lakers won 120-118 away to get match point.
Kobe scored 28 points for 14 of 27 shots, while Shaquille O'Neal scored 36 points and 21 rebounds.
At the end of the game, the excited O'Neill ran into the field, hugged Kobe and carried him back to the dressing room. At this time, the fans who watched the live broadcast through the screen could feel that they had a good relationship.
At the press conference, O'Neill called Kobe "my big little brother" and was so excited.
Kobe's painstaking efforts to turn the tide, also moved Phil Jackson. "Zen master" has seen the strength of the greatest shooting guard in history. Ordinary No.2 player can not make this famous coach praise, but Kobe's brave play makes Jackson have to admire.O'Neal is the leader of the team, but after this game, Kobe has attracted more fans. He has officially grown from a new star to a superstar. This season, he has been selected into the best lineup, the second team, the best defensive lineup, and the first team, all of which are affirmed by people.
In the last two games, Kobe continued to play with injuries, and his shooting percentage was not high, but he did his best. Especially in the sixth game, although he made only 8 of 27 shots, he grabbed 10 rebounds and scored 26 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists.
O'Neill still played terror, cut 41 points, 12 rebounds and 4 blocks, but 3 out of 12 free throws were not very good-looking, dominated the forbidden area throughout the series.
The Lakers beat the Pacers 4-2 and the players won the championship at home.
Facing the Pacers who were selected as the all star 224cm center Rick Schmitz in 1998, O'Neill was completely crushed, averaging 38 points, 16.7 rebounds and 2.7 blocks per game, and was elected as fmvp without any suspense.
In the whole NBA history, O'Neill's performance in this series can be called the second. The first is Michael Jordan in the 1993 finals. He averaged 41 points, 8.5 rebounds, 6.3 assists in six games, and scored the second highest single game 55 points in the finals history in the fifth game.
After watching the game together in Guo Xu's restaurant, harpy said excitedly, "the Lakers actually won the championship 4-2, but you said it was right. Now it doesn't matter if other teams don't ask you for a trial. I bet the Lakers will sign you!"
Grandfather black asked, "how much annual salary can he possibly get?"
Harpy said with a smile: "the first season is certainly not high. Before tax, he will not be able to enter the first round. Even if the first player in the second round can only get the base salary. If he signs a two-year rookie contract, the next year will be higher. Then he will become a restricted free player. If he plays well, other teams can offer high salary to poach people."
In this era, labor agreements are different. It is unfair to those who are in the top of the second round. After 2005, there is a big gap in the salary of the second round rookies.
Guo Xu doesn't care about salary. It's wonderful to be able to fight with OK team. Many stars don't have a championship ring all their lives. His rookie season will be a perfect start.
