Chapter 555 The first score in a single game in the finals
At this time, the ball arrived, and so did the Knicks' double-team, with O'Neal at the back, Jordan at the top, small forward Kersey in front, and Oakley at the bottom.
The Knicks surprisingly implemented a four-person double-team on him, and only point guard Ward did not come down.
The moment he caught the ball, Lao Wang took advantage of the situation and squatted down. The next moment, when the four-man double team was formed, he suddenly made a back arch.
Under the fierce iron mountain, O'Neill staggered back like a landslide.
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
“Crack!
At this moment, three big hands hit Lao Wang's hands, but his fingers were too strong and he couldn't knock the ball away.
The next moment, Lao Wang turned around and suddenly rose into the air like a giant dragon breaking out of a cage.
"Bang!"
As the fierce explosion of the basket sounded, he hung on the basket, with O'Neal, Jordan and the other three standing around in despair.
This scene was seen by countless people and was extremely shocking.
This scene was frozen by the media reporters behind the scenes.
Lao Wang fell to the floor, glanced down at O'Neal on the floor, glanced at Jordan again, took two serious breaths, and then shouted filial piety: "Remember, you can't stop me, this is my time, my time!"
"Damn it!"
Jordan was sprayed with saliva and was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Pa bang bang..."
Madison Square Garden was filled with warm applause and cheers. In addition to the 3,000 visiting team fans, there were also a large number of New York fans cheering and applauding Wang.
"The Iron Army came out strong in the final quarter. If the Knicks can't stop the Lakers' attack and defense, the Lakers are very likely to win the game." Zhang Lili said in high spirits.
"The match point must be won." Su Qun said excitedly.
90:87, Lao Wang added a penalty, and the Knicks had called a timeout in advance.
Phil Jackson sighed and called a timeout in advance, but it could not prevent Old K from once again damaging his team's morale. Although he was only behind by three points now, the situation was already a bit bad, and the balance of victory was tilting towards the Lakers.
O'Neal sat back on the bench as if sleepwalking, his eyes dull and confused.
Jordan spit out his chewing gum, replenished energy water, and panted. He couldn't care less about O'Neal next to him. Old K's explosion on both ends of the offense and defense also put great pressure on him.
The timeout ended quickly, Wang missed the extra free throw, Oakley protected the rebound, and the Knicks attacked.
Jordan glanced at O'Neal inside. He was outside the paint area and not actively taking position, so he knew that the ball would depend on him.
"Zhizhizhi..."
After a series of technical moves, he got rid of Kobe, ran into the wing with the ball, and rushed to the paint area.
Fordson lost Oakley and came up to cover. Jordan passed the ball to Oakley, and Oakley made a jump shot.
90:89, Lakers attack.
Lao Wang moved towards the basket again.
On the sidelines, Phil Jackson saw Old K's actions, and it instantly reminded him of the painful memory of Old K attacking the Bulls' basket again and again in the previous three finals, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The same goes for Jordan on the court. He didn't have a strong center teammate before, but now he has a big shark around him. Why is old K still so unscrupulous?
"Shaq, guard him!"
At this time, he suddenly yelled at O'Neal.
Hearing Jordan's hoarse voice, O'Neal felt his scalp explode.
The next moment, Lao Wang, who was about to enter the reasonable collision zone, suddenly hit O'Neal with his right elbow and blocked O'Neal who was going around. Then he raised his left hand and shook it.
"I want the ball!" Su Qun shouted excitedly.
"Whoosh!"
Kobe suddenly jumped up with both feet and threw the ball from Jordan's head to the basket. Jordan reacted quickly, but by the time he took off, the ball had already passed.
When O'Neal saw the ball coming in, he quickly turned around and grabbed Lao Wang's right arm with both hands. When Lao Wang took off to catch the ball, he pulled it down hard.
"drop!"
The whistle sounded.
"O'Neal committed his fourth foul. Now he can only stop Old K's attack at the basket by fouling." Barkley laughed.
"This foul means nothing," Kenny Smith said.
"His mind is already in chaos and his morale is no longer good." Bill Walton shook his head.
Walking to the free throw line, Wang took a few breaths, pulled up his jersey and wiped his sweat, then took the ball thrown by the referee and started dribbling.
After dribbling the ball six times and taking a deep breath, just when Wang was about to throw the ball, the Knicks cheerleader behind the baseline suddenly jumped up and raised his legs.
"Bang!"
Lao Wang admitted that his concentration was somewhat lacking, and his big white leg dazzled his eyes, and he missed the first free throw.
On the sidelines, Magic Johnson said to Jerry West: "Jerry, after I look back, I want our cheerleaders to spend an hour every day to perform leg raises for Old K."
"Go tell him." West nodded.
"No, I'm afraid his wife will kick me out of the trading company." The magician quickly shook his head.
"Bang!"
Lao Wang missed two free throws and O'Neal grabbed the rebound.
"Congratulations to the Knicks, your cheerleading team has made a great contribution at the critical moment." Barkley joked with a smile during the TNT live broadcast.
Bill Walton also joked: "If the Knicks really have no other choice, they can take advantage of their home court to carry forward this defensive tactic, and maybe they can get a match point."
"I'm afraid that after the Lakers go back, they will do the same thing to O'Neal. The next two games will be the Lakers' home court." Kenny Smith said.
"Ha ha……"
The three of them laughed.
"brush!"
A sudden stop jump shot, Jordan scored again, and the Knicks went ahead by one point.
The Lakers attacked and Lao Wang went to the basket again.
All eyes were once again focused on the Knicks' basket.
Kobe transferred the ball first and gave it to Fox on the right wing. At this time, Lao Wang began to compete with O'Neal for position on the edge of the reasonable collision zone.
"Don't even think about it!"
O'Neal furiously fought with Lao Wang in a venting style, but at this moment, Lao Wang, who was trying his best to gain the position, suddenly stepped back and reached out to Fox for the ball.
"not good!"
On the Knicks' side, they saw Old K suddenly flash upward, and O'Neal, who was wrestling, jumped forward and almost fell down.
Fortunately, O'Neal grabbed Old K's left arm with his left hand and used his strength to stabilize it.
"Whoosh!"
Fox passed the ball.
"Crack!"
Lao Wang put his left elbow on O'Neal and caught the ball with his right hand. In the next moment, he turned over and dunked in the first step.
It was too late to use both hands, so O'Neal pulled with one hand.
"Bang!"
"drop!"
The next moment, the sound of smashing the basket sounded, the whistle also sounded, and Lao Wang was thrown to the ground.
The referee immediately signaled that two points would count, a foul would be called, and a penalty shot would be added.
"This is bad, O'Neal fouled consecutively, five fouls." Bill Walton sighed.
"The Knicks don't dare to take off O'Neal. Old K will definitely continue to attack the basket. As long as O'Neal is taken off, the Lakers will definitely win today!" Barkley said.
"brush!"
This time, Lao Wang was not dazzled by the big white leg and hit the extra penalty.
93:91, the Lakers lead by 2 points, the Knicks attack.
Jordan broke through with the ball, penetrated all the defenses on the right wing, and entered the paint area, forcing Wang to return to the basket, and then took the opportunity to pass the ball to O'Neal.
Under the basket, the moment Jordan distributed the ball, a very determined look appeared in Lao Wang's eyes.
He has always been avoiding being dunked. When he is under the basket and needs to protect the basket most firmly, his defense is often not the most decisive.
The time I blocked O'Neal just now, it was not a frontal block, but a side block. That is to say, O'Neal had just received the ball and had not yet exerted force, otherwise he would not be able to hold it down and the block would probably fail.
Now, the team has reached the most critical moment. If they win this game, they will get the match point. In the next two home games, the Lakers can basically establish a victory.
Now, it is time for him to contribute.
"Will it self-destruct after being detained five times? System, I am strong enough now. If you want to destroy it, just destroy it!"
In the past, at this time, he would get out of the way, leave the basket, or block the shot from the side, but this time, he didn't dodge, he kicked his foot, and jumped towards O'Neal.
"What?"
O'Neal caught the ball in the air and was about to dunk, and he couldn't help but be startled when he saw Old K's two big hands rising into the air in front of him and blocking the basket.
At this time in the past, wouldn’t Old K, a coward, always get out of the way?
"Crack!"
In the next moment, O'Neal, who was on the verge of an arrow, clasped his hands hard and hit Lao Wang's hands directly.
At this moment, two giant beasts were wrestling in the air.
"Bang!"
The next moment, Lao Wang was knocked back to the floor by O'Neal, and at the same time, the basket above his head was hit hard.
"oh!"
At this time, there were exclamations in Madison Square Garden.
"Have you been detained?"
Lao Wang's heart skipped a beat, and when he looked up, he saw that the ball had already flown high into the sky.
"Dunken off?!"
At this moment, he laughed wildly in his heart.
What he laughed about was not that he successfully blocked the shot, but that he had opened up a taboo in his heart. From then on, he could protect the basket unscrupulously. Any opponent who entered the paint area would encounter his most powerful defense.

With level 98 single defense, level 96 assist defense, and level 95 blocking, he can definitely become the most terrifying rim protector in the league.
"Crack!"
Moving the position, he stuck O'Neal, took off the moment the ball fell, and grabbed the ball.
"It's so beautiful! At the critical moment, Old K played a strong defense, and he exploded on both offense and defense!" Barkley roared excitedly.
When he came to the frontcourt, Lao Wang moved towards the basket and shouted at O'Neal: "Guard me, little sardine, let me take you off the court."
"Don't even think about it!"
O'Neal frantically pressed forward, and the two immediately began a round of hand-to-hand combat.
"Don't foul!" Jordan reminded loudly.
While Jordan was distracted, Kobe passed the ball in, towards the left side of the basket, towards Pharaoh Wang.
When Lao Wang received the ball, the Knicks' double team was a step slower.
By this time, almost everyone's physical fitness was about to collapse and they could no longer run. They could no longer play high-quality defense. Even Jordan could only watch Old K receiving the ball and then playing in the basket.
He placed a single to hit O'Neal, but he was still more than one meter away from old K.
Lao Wang caught the ball with one hand without any fake moves. He pushed O'Neal with his left elbow sideways, forced himself to stand up, and performed a powerful leg slam with one hand.
"Bang!"
O'Neal took off to block the shot and was directly dunked.
"oh!"
Seeing O'Neal being dunked like this, everyone on the Knicks side was extremely surprised.
Being raped by the opponent under the basket is something the Shark does to others every day, but now he himself is raped under the basket.
Larry Bird, Iverson, Mourning, Muttoboom, etc. who were watching the game on the sidelines were particularly shocked by this dunk.
Forcibly eating O'Neal under the basket, forcibly dunking the shark, and treating the shark as if it were nothing. This is an absolute crushing, a crushing of strength and willpower. This is an invincible performance from physical to technical to mental will.
.
A moment ago, people sitting in the front court stood up and applauded, cheering for this goal.
O'Neal turned around blankly and glanced at Jordan, who told him not to foul. The morale in his heart was disintegrating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Jordan leaned over while panting, putting his hands on his knees.
"Yeah! Yeah!"
Lao Wang completed the dunk, roared excitedly, waved his fists vigorously, and celebrated with his teammates who rushed towards him.
"yeah!"
When the dunk occurred, the Lakers cheered suddenly, and the Knicks were completely silent. Then more and more Knicks fans began to cheer for Wang's offense.
"Old K defeated O'Neal on both offense and defense, and Knicks fans began to turn against him!" Bill Walton shook his head and sighed.
"The big shark has no morale. Faced with such a humiliating dunk, he didn't even use foul means to stop Old K. His will has been completely defeated by Old K." Barkley shook his head.
95:91, Knicks attack.
The score difference was not big, but Phil Jackson called a timeout.
Unfortunately, a timeout cannot solve the Knicks' current problems.
O'Neal committed 5 fouls, and his defensive strength was weakened. With Lao Wang's 104-level offensive strength under the basket, how could he be able to defend him when his teammates' defensive double-teaming was not timely?
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Wang mustered up the last bit of physical energy and attacked the basket frantically, attacking the basket guarded by O'Neal again and again. O'Neal was beaten all over the head.
On the defensive end, he based himself on the basket, was not afraid of dunks, stopped the Knicks' basket attack, and performed as a true top rim protector.
Even Jordan, when his physical energy was exhausted, his breakthrough speed dropped sharply, and he barely managed to get in, but he suffered repeated setbacks.
"ah!"
In the 10th minute of this quarter, O'Neal finally couldn't bear it anymore and lost control. Under another strong attack by Lao Wang, he directly hugged Lao Wang and got the sixth foul.
At this time, the Lakers relied on Lao Wang's strong offense and defense at the basket and were already 10 points ahead. This was even when Jordan was struggling to attack.
But with O'Neal's dismissal, in less than two minutes in the last minute, the balance of victory completely tilted towards the Lakers.
Jordan also broke out at the last moment, hitting consecutive jump shots from the outside, but was unable to stop Lao Wang's low attack.
As soon as the whistle blew, the Lakers won the G5 game, winning the match point with a big score of 3 to 2.
The moment the game ended, Lao Wang and Jordan both sat on the floor, panting like an ox.
After the game, Su Qun said excitedly: "Congratulations to Old K, for making 9 of 12 shots and 2 of 6 free throws in the final quarter, scoring 20 points and totaling 62 points.
You set a career high in a single game in the playoffs and a new high in a single game in the Finals. You also set a new personal scoring high in a single game in the history of the NBA Finals, and broke Kim Baylor's 61-point record in the Finals.
Currently, there is only one single-game personal scoring record in the playoffs that has not been broken, and that is Jordan’s single-game playoff record of 63 points.”
Zhang Lili took the statistics table and read: "The Tiejun made 26 of 37 shots in the game, a hit rate of 70.2%, and 10 of 18 free throws, a hit rate of 55.5%. This should be the most shots they took today. I was really crazy.
In addition to scoring, he also grabbed 15 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 5 blocks, as well as 3 turnovers and 4 fouls."
Su Qun said with a smile: "O'Neal was defeated by Old K in the last quarter and only scored 6 points, totaling 36 points. Jordan exploded in the final quarter, scoring 16 points and totaling 45 points. He didn't look like a 35-year-old man at all. Joe
The Sharks teamed up to contribute 81 points, but were still defeated by the Lakers. This game was too intense."
Zhang Lili analyzed excitedly: "The next two home games for the Lakers are. With match points in hand, we should strive to solve our opponents in the G6 game and try not to reach a tiebreaker.
Being tied at home and playing in a tiebreaker will have an impact on the Lakers' morale, and they should try to avoid a tiebreaker."
