Chapter 83 The Lakers' farewell!



Chapter 83 The Lakers' farewell!
Bruce looked at the players and fans on both sides with some emotion, and was completely attracted by the intensity and charm of the playoffs!
Originally, when he watched NBA games in his previous life, he only felt the intensity of the game, but with his rebirth, his understanding of this sport has gradually improved!

Although the Warriors failed to break into the playoffs at the last moment, they still surprised those teams and the outside media in this shrinking season.

Watching the team gradually improve under his own operation, Bruce really felt deeply proud!
And as the season progressed, Bruce, who already had a certain understanding of the NBA, gradually felt the charm of this sport!

Just like what the media and the outside world have said, even if it is a bottom team in the NBA, no team can underestimate their combat effectiveness.

If you dare to underestimate them, even a championship team will suffer from them!

And the progress of the playoffs gave Bruce a different feeling. As people say, the regular season and the playoffs are not at the same level at all, and only the last 10 games of the regular season will show his strength. Some playoff shadows!
The playoffs are like a huge battlefield, every team is trying their best to win every game.

A pair of fights, just like two armies confronting each other, the knife sees red, and the needle hits the nail on the head! !
The collision of muscles is the main theme of the playoffs. No team dares to relax, and no player does not desire the temptation of honor!
The charm of the NBA lies in its uncertainty in the game and the dazzling performances of the stars!

The regular season belongs to the star players, and of course the playoffs also have their final word!
These stars are the biggest signs of the NBA and the "box office" of every team!
They have strong personal abilities, they have a variety of offensive methods, and their strong personal charm has attracted a large number of fans to follow!
Every star player is the reason for the success of each team. Just like the Rockets, every team is eager to join the star, and even wants to get the second or third at any cost!

If it weren't for the existence of the salary cap in the league, this league would become the world of the big ball market, and it would gradually lose its original charm!
Bruce looked at the stars of both sides on the field with some emotion. Kobe has gradually revealed his superstar potential, and Duncan has further shown everyone his gradually increasing dominance!

Coupled with the old but stronger David Robinson and the domineering Shaquille O'Neal who showed his super dominance, the duel between stars and the use of team tactics further brought fans great enjoyment!

From the beginning of the fourth quarter, the two teams were like crazy bulls, both showing a fight to the death!
Even though the Spurs were slightly lacking in physical strength because of the players, their strong experience and the performance of star Duncan, from the beginning a little nibbled, until the end of the fourth quarter, they suddenly burst out with the unique brilliance of veterans!
36:25
That's right!It was such a score that suddenly put tremendous pressure on the slightly disappointed Lakers!
When the flute sounded for the final game, Bruce couldn't help sending his most sincere wishes to these fighters!
整场比赛,邓肯出战45分钟,为马刺贡献了37分14篮板3抢断1盖帽和最后胜局已定的6次犯规!
The Lakers seemed a little disappointing. Kobe made 18 shots and only hit 7 goals. Even though Glen Rice scored 24 points in the end, his poor shooting percentage of 19 of 6 still seemed a bit meaningless!
Although O'Neal tried his best to fight against the Spurs' twin towers, the opponent's intentional shark-slashing tactics against him still limited his playing time.

O'Neal played 37 minutes and scored 22 points, 3 blocks and 15 rebounds, but his poor free throws made him quite helpless!

The Spurs, with the explosion of Duncan and Jalen Jackson, coupled with the overall performance of other players, finally ended the third game with a score of 103:91!

Bruce comforted the disappointed O'Neill with some regret: "Man, you should cheer up!"

"Aha! Is my inner thoughts so obvious?" O'Neill laughed at himself, thinking that he had boasted to Bruce before the game, but now it ended in failure, and he felt a little embarrassed: "Man, this is just a It's just a game!"

Bruce watched O'Neal walking towards the player tunnel a little lonely, and he understood the mood of this big guy too much!

Since O'Neal entered the league, his strong performance and the great impact he brought to the league that year.

In his rookie season, this powerful center brought another understanding to everyone's long-term understanding!
Not everyone is synonymous with slowness as a center. O'Neal has a strong body and extremely fast pace. He brought 20 victories to the Magic in his rookie season alone, and scored 29 points and over 4 in the second year. Half the hit rate.

In the third year, this player, who gradually revealed the potential of a legendary center, led the Magic to an unexpected victory over the first comeback with his tough style of play. The Bulls and Rockets led by Jordan met in the finals!

Even if they were swept out by the Rockets, the powerful combination of O'Neal and Hardaway really made the outside world look forward to it!

But who knows, in O'Neal's last season in Orlando, this big guy missed nearly 30 games due to injury!
In the summer of 96, West and Bass, who had long coveted O'Neal for a long time, while the Magic stupidly failed to provide an offer to echo O'Neal, the Lakers suddenly offered him the sensational [-] million yuan contract!
With the pride of reaching the finals, O'Neal came to Los Angeles with a bang!
The rhetoric of the year, after spending two years in the Lakers, O'Neal was gradually questioned by the outside world!
At the end of today's game, Bruce knows very well how much the harsh Los Angeles media and the New York media with a poisonous tongue will impose on this big guy.

Looking at O'Neal who bowed his head and walked into the player tunnel, Bruce deeply felt sorry for this big man and hated the media!

The next day, the national media, whether it was the famous New York and Los Angeles, or even a gossip magazine reported on the loss of the Lakers last night!
Among them, the New York media that failed to win O'Neill was the most important. "Failure! ! ""Shaquille's Cry".

The New York Times with "Does Shaquille Regret It?" "As the title, it lashed out at the decision O'Neill made that year.

With the sudden burst of energy from Ewing and the Knicks, the Knicks ended their match against the Eagles with a 4:0 record.

After sweeping the Eagles, the New York media seemed to have seen the Knicks win the championship, and reported the Knicks wantonly. While boasting, these media did not forget to criticize O'Neal by the way!
Bruce looked at these blind clowns a little funny, and did something shameless to these guys, it's unbelievable!
In 96, O'Neal not only received a contract of [-] million yuan from the Lakers, but the Knicks, who had been suppressed by the Bulls led by Jordan for many years, had a chance to get this powerful center, but Dolan and the New York media at that time did not think so. Can't see the strength of this center forward.

Don Nelson, the "mad scientist" who was the coach of the Knicks at the time, sent advice to Dolan. When Dolan knew that this crazy guy wanted to exchange Patrick Ewing, the star of the team at the time, for O'Neal. Everyone thinks he is crazy!

And as O'Neill gradually consolidated his powerful dominance, New Yorkers completely lost their voices!
In this way, when the Knicks saw that O'Neal led the Lakers to a defeat, they were like a woman with a small stomach, attacking and satirizing him at all costs!

Bruce threw the newspaper in his hand directly into the trash can, he was really disgusted by the faces of these guys.

Back in Oakland, Bruce has been collecting all kinds of materials about this summer's draft non-stop. Bruce has great ambitions for this year's players!
Warriors, after Bruce gradually established Carter, Nowitzki and Billups as the core of the team, he gradually sorted out his ideas for other positions!

With the gradual growth of the three of Carter, Bruce firmly believes that the Warriors will have a wonderful future!

As for some of the problems that the team currently has, Bruce has already had some thoughts and responses to some of the team's flaws through a season of games and some reactions from Carlesimo!
Bruce pondered for a moment, put the information on the table aside, and opened the drawer with a very cheerful expression!
The unprotected first-round pick from the Raptors in 2003, the second-round pick from the Bucks in the summer of 99 and the first-round pick from the Nuggets, plus the possible 20th pick for the Warriors themselves , Bruce got these exciting picks just through a few trades!
In just 99, except for trading out his second-round pick, the Warriors won two first-round picks and one second-round pick.

Although Bruce is extremely optimistic about the rookies in 99, his trade of draft picks has fallen into a bottleneck!

With the opening of the East and West finals, the Spurs and the Trail Blazers took the lead!
In the first game, with Duncan's 21 points, 13 rebounds and 3 blocks and Robinson's 21 points and 10 rebounds, coupled with the stable performance of other players in the team and the role of veterans, the Spurs narrowly beat Rashid 80:76 at home. ·The Trail Blazers led by Wallace, the Spurs beat the Trail Blazers by one point in the second game!
On the other hand, in the Eastern Conference, in the first game, the Knicks only defeated the Pacers led by Reggie Miller 93:90!

The contest between the two teams really brought passion to the sluggish Eastern Conference. Ewing scored a double-double, while Houston and Sprewell scored 19 and 16 points respectively!
 The first update! ~
