Big Zhi and Kobe's Lakers Dynasty

Chapter 26 The Regular Season Begins



Chapter 26 The Regular Season Begins

The only thing that can stop Shaquille O'Neal's fast break desire is his own fat, but in 1996, Shaquille O'Neal's athletic ability was off the charts.

With the appearance of a giant and the speed at which he charged, anyone who does not want to be carried away by the ambulance can only stay away, a fast-break dunk like no one's land, coupled with his signature celebratory move Overlord Step , Shaquille O'Neal is very intoxicated with such a goal.

Not only is his dribbling skills excellent, Shaquille O'Neal's turnaround hook and small throw are even more innocent. After all, he can't score points by dunking every ball.

In the process of training with the main lineup, Wang Dazhi and Kobe also learned a lot. Of course, these results still need to be tested in the regular season.

On November 1996, 11, the Los Angeles Lakers' first regular season game was a guest at Phoenix against the Phoenix Suns.

The appearance of Wang Dazhi has already brought about some changes in the direction of this time and space. For example, the Los Angeles Lakers were supposed to play at home in this game, but some reasons changed the game.

Even after going through the baptism of the preseason, when the regular season comes, the rookies Wang Dazhi and Kobe are still very excited.

There were few Phoenix Suns fans present, and the attendance rate for the first game of the regular season was not too high.

Because superstar Charles Barkley, who played for them for four seasons, was traded to the Houston Rockets, Charles Barkley became Sam Cassell, Robert Horry, Mark Bryant and Chucky brown.

Obviously, local Phoenix fans are not willing to buy tickets for these people. If it weren't for the huge influence of the Los Angeles Lakers, I am afraid that today's seats would be quite empty.

The two meritorious figures of the Suns in the commentary booth also kept complaining.

Dick Van Asdale: "I'm afraid there are less than 1 people here today! I haven't seen such a dismal home game in Phoenix for many years!

I really envy such giants as the Los Angeles Lakers. Just after Magic Johnson retired, they ushered in a new superstar Shaquille O'Neal!
When will our Phoenix Suns welcome our own superstar?
Can you predict it?Walter? "

Talking Dick. Van Asdale is the legendary swingman of the Phoenix Suns. His No. 58 jersey was also honorably retired by the team.

Nicknamed "The Greyhound," Walter is also a passing star for the Phoenix Suns.

Walter Davis: "Your topic really makes me desperate. If Sam Cassell can really display the strength of aliens, he may become our new superstar.

Unfortunately, he just looks like ET. "

For traditional giants like the Los Angeles Lakers, most teams in the league treat them with envy and hatred.

In the first game of the new season between the two teams, the Phoenix Suns sent point guard Sam Cassell, shooting guard Wesley Bosen, forward Robert Horry, forward AC Green, and center Joe Klein.

For the Lakers in the away game, starting point guard Nick Van Exel, shooting guard Eddie Jones, small forward Cedric Ceballos, power forward Eldon Campbell, and center Shaquille O'Neal.

Wang Dazhi and Kobe sat in the middle of the bench, with the main rotation players on their right and marginal players on their left.

Just like the position of the seats, the two brothers will enter the rotation if they perform well, and they will gradually be marginalized if they perform poorly.

Game start!
Shaquille O'Neal easily won the jump ball against the two-meter-one white center Joe Klein!
The team with Shaquille O'Neal naturally has to slow down. Everyone waited for Shaquille O'Neal to slowly walk to the basket before starting to move the ball, and the ball was transferred to Shaquille O'Neal's side .

With one of his hands, he stuck Joe Klein behind him, set up a stance to catch the ball, and the ball was immediately thrown into his hands.

Turn around with a strong explosive power, and get strong!

Joe Klein had no choice but to hug the big shark from behind. It was such a rough hug that Shaquille O'Neal almost threw the ball in!

The opening first down also set the tone for the entire game.

If this kind of action happened in the Silver era, the referee would definitely watch the video when he went back, and then call a malicious foul, and the players on both sides would keep chattering and arguing, and the fans would even shout words in the forum. gun.

But in 1996, Shaquille O'Neal was expressionless after such an intentional foul, and he was used to it.

In Shaquille O'Neal's own words, I can understand them, otherwise what else can they do besides fouling me?

Joe Klein blocked Shaquille O'Neal's dunk with one of his own fouls, but the home fans booed unexpectedly. They seemed to be complaining that I paid to watch Shaquille dunk!

Only Shaquille O'Neal standing on the free throw line showed bitterness. He held the basketball like a normal athlete holding a volleyball. The first free throw was short!

The home fans cheered happily, watching Shaquille O'Neal's embarrassment when he made a free throw is also a link that the fans love to see.

The second free throw was lucky, the ball fell into the net bag after stumbling on the basket a few times.

The Phoenix Suns attack, Sam Cassell organizes, the Suns keep scoring, but with the big sharks guarding the basket, the Suns can't find a shot.

The ball returned to Sam Cassell's hands again, and he made a three-pointer against Nick Van Exel's defense!

Sam Cassell looked around the auditorium, as if announcing that I am the new number one here!
The two teams played very anxiously throughout the first quarter. Shaquille O'Neal continued to create damage at the basket. He scored 7 points and 3 rebounds. The Los Angeles Lakers also temporarily led 26-20.

The main lineup returned to the bench and sat down. Wang Dazhi and Kobe also stood up and made way.

Delmar Harris: "We played well in the first quarter, defended well, and we only allowed the opponent to score 20 points!
In the second quarter, we must continue to be aggressive. In the second quarter, Nick, Kobe, Cedric, Wang and Campbell!
Come on guys! "

Hearing DeMar called their names, Wang Dazhi and Kobe took off their coats at the speed of light.

Wang Dazhi understands that as a substitute, he must always wait for the call of the head coach. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. If you say that I am not ready to go up and hit my teammate's head with the serve, then it is better not to hang out in the NBA.

Wang Dazhi and Kobe looked at each other, as if to say, it's finally my turn!

Delmar Harris practiced this rotation in training, with Kobe playing two and Wang Dazhi playing four.
