NBA Backer King Chapter 558

Chapter 558 Funny he is very talented

The G6 battle is held on the 13th, and there are three days in the middle to adjust, which is relatively good for both players.

The league also hopes that the game will be more exciting, so the schedule is not too tight.

On the morning of the 12th, at the NBA headquarters in New York, a meeting of the presidents was held to discuss some issues.

Yesterday, some high-level executives put forward several suggestions to President David Stern, such as canceling illegal defense, allowing joint defense, such as expanding the three-second zone, such as limiting the use of hacking tactics, etc., and some people proposed to cancel the anti-isolation singles law. , Stern didn't sleep much last night and has been thinking about related issues.

The starting point of his consideration of the problem is not to introduce certain rules to restrict a certain person, but whether these introduced rules are conducive to the development of the alliance and whether it is conducive to the balance of the alliance.

Through relevant channels, the relevant content of the league meeting was quickly known to the media, and then spread, triggering a big discussion between the media and the league players.

This is also what the league wants to see, and the executives also hope that every rule introduced by the league will be supported by more people.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Knicks arrived in Los Angeles.

"We will never give up! There is no word give up in my dictionary."

At the press conference held in the hotel, Jordan revealed his attitude towards the G6 war when facing questions from the media.

"I will prove myself to old K, this is not his time alone."

O'Neill let out his roar like a **** bear facing a life-and-death crisis.

The Knicks' dual-core attitude inside and outside shows an attitude to everyone. The G6 game will be the last battle of the Knicks.

Zhang Lili, who participated in the press conference, said to Su Qun: "The Lakers must not be careless. If they are careless, they will definitely lose Jingzhou."

"If the Knicks get back to match point and go into the tiebreaker, their morale will definitely explode. The Lakers really can't lose the G6 game." Su Qun nodded.

This evening, a group of people in Lao Wang's family were also discussing these issues.

Da Meng said: "If the three-second zone is really expanded, it will be bad news for the inside players. The farther away from the basket, the greater the attacking distance, the lower the attacking efficiency, the more the defensive area will be, and the lower the defensive efficiency will be. ."

Glider laughed: "For perimeter players, the increase in the area of the penalty area will increase their breakthrough space, and more breakthrough points will make the game more exciting. I think the league will consider this."

Lightning said: "I think if the inside and outside lines are well coordinated, it's not a bad thing for inside players to play a sudden point tactics. The breakthrough space on the outside line increases, and the same is true for the inside line. They have more space to play. Cut in."

Old Wang couldn't help but nodded and said, "Yes, we need to defend a larger penalty area, and the offensive side's inside line will have more space to cut. If the opponent is O'Neal and Jordan, then the cooperation between them will be even more terrible."

Pippen said: "To really expand the penalty area, you must need more athletic inside players. I don't think this is good news for Old K and O'Neal. The bigger the weight, the more movement, the more you must consume. physical fitness.

In addition, because of the existence of three seconds on defense and three seconds on offense, the slow-moving insider, including those veterans, will run back and forth under the basket and outside the penalty area, consuming more physical energy. "

Lao Wang couldn't help nodding, expanding the three-second zone, which was more unfriendly to veterans and their big-tonnage insiders.

Now his mobility is good, but after a few years of decline?

However, after a few years, when his state declines, maybe the league will make some changes, and it's hard to say.

Lightning smiled and said: "I think the zone defense will have certain restrictions on the old K, and there will be higher requirements for the passing ability on the outside.

In addition, the restricted area is expanded, which compresses the area of the mid-range shot, and the outside line with weaker breakthrough ability and pull-up jumper ability may choose to increase the three-point shot. "

Everyone nodded, and Pharaoh had to agree to this.

Leigong said: "I think it is more beneficial to O'Neal to limit the slashing tactics. Old K is not afraid of this kind of tactics."

Dameng said: "This is a tactic that is beneficial to the inside, and the free throws are better from the outside."

Having said that, he glanced at Dayao and said with a smile, "Except Yao."

"Ha ha…"

Everyone laughed, and Dayao himself laughed too.

"At least get rid of the anti-isolation rule, which I think the Knicks came up with. They dreamed of unlocking Jordan's singles ability," Pippen said.

Lightning shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this will not pass. If this rule is cancelled, it will be more beneficial for Old K. His ability in low singles is definitely the best in league history, and Jordan can't compare to him."

Dameng also nodded and said, "There is no anti-isolation law. Old K is single on the flank, and the others pull to the other flank. His nearly two-point hook will defeat all opponents."

At this time, Lei Gong said: "I can't say, what if the three-second zone is expanded at the same time? Now the old K's hook attack zone only reaches the three-second zone, and it can't be farther. That is to say, even if the anti-isolation singles rule is cancelled, It's not very good for him either."

Having said this, he asked: "Old K, how is your mid-range hook? I think the arc of your hook is pretty good, not very flat. You should be able to shoot in the mid-range!"

Old Wang shook his head and said, "It's not very accurate. If I really expand the three-second zone and I can't hit it, my efficiency will definitely drop."

Dameng slapped his thigh and said, "Then you're in trouble. The league wants to restrict you now, maybe it will really modify the three-second zone."

"Then so analyzed, I think the anti-isolation rule is really possible to cancel. And if the zone defense is allowed, it can be double-teamed in advance, and the anti-isolation singles rule doesn't seem to be useful." Pippen said.

At this time, Zhang Lili said: "Tie Jun, have you noticed the Knicks' press conference today? Jordan's leadership is too strong, and their morale has not had a major problem.

Jordan and O'Neal's attitude is not tough, but a decisive, I saw their determination to sink the boat, you have to be careful. "

Old Wang nodded and said, "I will be careful."

No. 13, G6 match day.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, David Stern and several senior league executives arrived in Los Angeles, and Old Bath and West went to the airport to meet them.

The league is very satisfied with this finals series. The audience rating of the last game has broken through the record 60 million. After five games, only the ticket revenue and on-site advertising revenue, the league and the two balls. Combined, the team made at least $200 million.

"Jerry, after the Finals, before the draft, the league will vote on some matters, and I'd like to hear from you before that."

After getting in the car, Stern, who was smiling, said politely to Jerry Bass.

"David, I am honored."

Bass nodded, of course he knows these things as the team owner. The league has to introduce some rules to balance some of the damage that Old K caused to the league because of his power.

At 6:30, the Great Western Forum Arena was full and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

At the entrance of the player tunnel, a championship trophy has been placed there. If the Lakers get it tonight, they will win the cup.

But from the bottom of my heart, people up and down the league, whether it is the top management, other team owners, or even players, all hope that they can reach the tiebreaker this time.

There is nothing else, just profit. Entering the tiebreaker is profitable for everyone.

Even if it is the Lakers, as long as they can finally win the championship, they can earn tens of millions more in tickets and advertising revenue by playing the tiebreaker.

Of course, from the owner to the management, to the players, the Lakers still hope to win the championship tonight. The entire Great Western Forum Arena has made all preparations to celebrate the championship, because it is really too dangerous to play the tiebreaker. Can't predict the consequences.

At seven o'clock, Barkley ran to the locker room for an interview before the live broadcast, and took the cameraman to the visiting team's locker room first.

Originally, interviews were not allowed at this time, but he used his personal relationship to enter the Knicks locker room.

The last time Jordan turned against him, and later he caught up to apologize, but Jordan forgave him.

"Michael, the game is about to start, are you looking forward to it?" he asked.

Jordan was leaning on the wardrobe. The staff was bandaging him. He glanced at Barkley and spit out a sentence: "Charles, do you think I will be afraid of failure?"

Buckley thought for a while and said, "Before you were young and not afraid of failure, but now you are 35 years old, are you still not afraid of failure?"

"Of course not, never!" Jordan said, staring at Barkley.

Buckley wanted to look away, but held back, he asked again, "Michael, do you think it's the age of old K's behemoths?"

With a swish, O'Neal's eyes moved over immediately.

Jordan stared at Barkley, as if he didn't intend to answer the question.

Barkley really couldn't stand Jordan's scorching gaze, he looked away, and then looked at Jordan again.

But unfortunately, Jordan did not answer this question in the end.

Barkley is very clear that Jordan is still not reconciled. If he wins the old K this time, he may be willing to admit that this is the era of the old K. After all, he is already old. After playing this year, no one knows his state next year. Maybe retiring next year.

But now the media has basically determined that the era of Jordan's flying man has passed, and the position of the first person in active duty is already the old K's, and now is the old K's era.

So he thinks Jordan's unwilling attitude is just a kind of insistence as the hegemon of the era. Once Jordan wins the old K this year, this kind of persistence will have no basis. It's like venting in one breath. Jordan is very May choose to retire directly.

He believes that the current Jordan will never have the idea of playing a dynasty again and can win the old K in the finals. This should be Jordan's most practical idea and goal now.

But he still asked the question, saying rather tactfully: "Michael, if you won this time, would you choose to retire?"

Jordan was in a trance for a while, if he won, would he choose to retire?

Barkley saw Jordan's appearance and knew that he was right. Jordan had lost his pursuit of a dynasty in his heart. If it was the previous Jordan, would there be a second answer at this time?

He didn't ask any further questions, and Jordan didn't answer. Then he turned his gun and asked O'Neal, "Shaq, are you ready to face old K again?"

O'Neal swallowed his throat and nodded, "I'm ready, I'm going to tear him apart tonight."

"How many pieces are you going to tear him into?" Buckley asked with a grin.

"Tear into as many pieces as I can, and I'll grind him with my teeth."

The funny O'Neal opened his mouth wide, bit Barkley sharply, and then made a fierce grinning expression.

"Ha ha…"

Barkley laughed, feeling that O'Neal would really fit into some hilarious talk shows.

But, can such O'Neal really tear old K into pieces?

However, O'Neal's morale looks okay, and it's not too bad. The two teams have a fight tonight.

Then he took the cameraman to the home team's locker room, and happened to meet Zhang Lili and Su Qun, who also brought the cameraman.

"Hey, Zhang, Su."

"Hey, Charles."

The three of them are very familiar, especially Zhang Lili and Barkley, who have been dealing with the Suns since the Suns. Until now, they often met at Pharaoh's house before the finals, and they greeted each other warmly when they met.

"Zhang, Charles, five minutes, it's almost warm-up time." Teaching assistant Kirtranbis reminded.

"OK."

Several people responded and entered the locker room.

"coming."

Old Wang greeted.

"Old K, O'Neal said he was going to tear you to shreds." Barkley immediately shouted.

"Charles, did you go there just now?" Zhang Lili asked.

"Yes, I'll go there first." Buckley laughed.

Pharaoh said: "O'Neal is very suitable for laughing, he is very talented in laughing, and he is serious in laughing."

"Haha..." The dressing room burst into laughter.

"Old K, I feel that if Michael wins you this time, maybe he will choose to retire, or would you let him win once?" Barkley said with a smile.

"Aren't you afraid that they will kill you here?" Old Wang pointed at Richmond and Chris Mullin with his chin.

Barkley turned his head and saw that several veterans were staring at him with knife-like eyes. He couldn't help shrinking his neck and said quickly: "Joke, joke, don't mind everyone, I just want to find a gimmick and **** it during the live broadcast later. A wave of attention."

Pharaoh said at this time: "Last time I heard someone say that if Jordan fails again, he may choose to retire. Now you say it again, that is, whether he wins or loses, he may choose to retire?"

Barkley shook his head and said: "I think my idea is right. If he loses, he should not retire. He will not be reconciled. Winning you once is his only goal now, and his greatest dedication now."

Old Wang nodded thoughtfully. With Jordan's paranoia and pride, he really shouldn't choose to retire after losing.

At 7:30, the two sides announced their starters.

Knicks: O'Neal, Oakley, Dale Ellis, Jordan, Charlie Ward

Lakers: Wang Tiejun, Danny Fortson, Rick Fox, Richmond, Kobe

At 7:40, the starters of the two teams came to the player tunnel, ready to play.

Looking at the O'Brien Cup outside, Jordan took a deep breath, gave him a stern look, and looked away.

Pharaoh stared at the championship trophy, his eyes lit up.

Both of them need this trophy to prove themselves, Jordan needs to use it to break, he faced the fallacy of K's one loss, two losses, three losses and four losses, Pharaoh needs to use it to prove that the Lakers' decision to trade Duncan's dream is correct.

"Shhh!"

When Jordan came out and walked past the trophy, there was an extremely violent boo at the Great Western Forum.

Lakers fans are willing to spit out their alveoli in order to win the 12th championship. Many of them are Jordan fans. At this time, they also booed at Jordan without mercy.

"King! king! king..."

When Pharaoh came out, countless Lakers fans shouted wildly.

Pharaoh waved to the fans, then gave a high-five to his teammates and management, and shook hands with David Stern.

He looked at the auditorium, there were a large number of Chinese people holding many Chinese signs, some with his name and nickname, some with the words such as the championship, and even some people held five-star red flags.

The host of the scene ran over and asked him if he wanted to say a few words to the fans. He took the microphone and signaled that the scene was quiet, and said loudly: "Everyone, my teammates and I are ready to win the championship, you are ready. Yet?"

"Champion! Champ! Champ..."

This sentence is like igniting a volcano, and endless magma spews out. In an instant, the Great Western Forum Arena was flooded with a crazy surge of adrenaline.
