Rebirth of My Rocket Dynasty

Chapter 115

The Rockets waited for their opponents in the second round of the playoffs, the Los Angeles Lakers.

Seeing this opponent, the Rockets players all smiled heartily.

Lao Tang also laughed, very happy, finally able to give the Rockets a worthy opponent, looking at the Rockets players who were preparing for the game, Lao Tang secretly smiled in his heart: It’s not that enemies don’t get together, hehe, that big fat O’Neill , It is estimated that it is also a very headache.

When the Rockets players were training, both Bus and Ben had wry smiles on their faces, and a bunch of Rockets players were joking and teasing them.

Olajuwon said with a smile: "Hey, I said Ben, Bus, this game against the Lakers depends on you inside. I, an old man, don't want to fight that monster hand-to-hand."

Da Ben grinned, and said bitterly: "I said Hakim, you are the main force, why did you shrink back when you met a shark, and let me and the bus block the hole."

Olajuwon laughed and said, "I said buddy, you have the heart to see an old man like me go to fight that monster hand-to-hand."

The bus said with a blank face: "We are very willing. If anyone has faced such a guy and can remain indifferent, I would rather let Xian."

Olajuwon spread his hands and said, "Dude, I don't have as good strength as you. You two should do this."

Seeing Olajuwon who was acting like a rascal, Daba and Daben could only look at each other and smile wryly.

Lao Tang is very happy to see his players with such a relaxed attitude. Facing a team like the Lakers, it is very important to maintain an optimistic attitude.

At the end of the day's training, Lao Tang called the players into the conference room to explain the specific tactics against the Lakers.

"Okay, boys, you won't be wasted too much time, and your date with your lover won't be wasted, I can assure you of this." Lao Tang made a joke before explaining the tactics.

Everyone in the Rockets burst into cheers.

"Okay, brats, don't laugh, now I will explain to you the specific tactics and style of play. The Lakers are a strong team, and I won't explain this to you. O'Neal, Fox, Eddie? Jones, Kobe Bryant, Van Exel, such a lineup is also a headache for everyone. However, I want to ask you a question. Do you know where the strongest point of this team is? "

Lao Tang swept his eyes and saw that no one answered, so he said, "Mark, tell me."

Mark Jackson, who was named, scratched his head and said: "Since everyone doesn't want to talk about it, let me talk about it first. The strongest point of the Lakers is their inside line. That shark is really difficult to deal with. I think the bus and Big Ben has a lot of feelings about this. This big shark, both in attack and defense, has a huge threat, which makes all of us have lingering fears when attacking the opponent's inside line, so I think we can limit the shark. Our performance is the key to our success.”

As soon as Mark finished speaking, Lao Tang took the lead in applauding. All the Rockets applauded for Mark Jackson's analysis. Lao Tang smiled and said, "Mark, you are right. The greatest strength of the Lakers is their Inside, the strong power of the shark makes people feel very difficult to deal with. I can say responsibly that if it hadn’t been for our Rockets and our boss, then within the next three years, that shark would definitely rule the league , This is undoubted, but now this shark is very unlucky. He met us, so it will be much more difficult for him to reach the top. Today, we will explain how to deal with this shark. Everyone knows that the Lakers are the best. What is strong is their inside line, but do you know where the Lakers' weakness lies."

Lao Tang asked another question.

Everyone in the Rockets thought for a moment, then shook their heads.

"So, Mark, do you know?" Old Tang continued to ask Mark? Jackson.

"Sorry, coach, I don't know anymore." Mark shook his head a little embarrassedly.

"Hehe, if you find out, you can directly join my class, and I can retire and go home. Well, I won't let you guess, in fact, the weakness of the Lakers is also their inside line." As soon as this remark came out, the Rockets Everyone was shocked.

Only Mark? Jackson nodded if he realized something.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Lao Tang continued: "You heard me right. I'm talking about their insiders. They are strong, but they don't have anyone who can replace O'Neal. Once O'Neal goes off the court, the entire tactical system of the Lakers will be destroyed." It will be a big blow, so I have formulated a tactic for you and I have code-named it: 'puncture'."

After speaking, he picked up the pointer and began to explain the entire tactical system. Listening to Lao Tang's explanation, all the Rockets players felt one thing.

That is confidence, that kind of high-spirited self-confidence, which radiates from Lao Tang's body all the time.

In fact, neither the Rockets players nor Lao Tang noticed that confidence can be contagious to each other.

There is such an interaction between the current Rockets players and the head coach. The confident interaction between the two sides and the ability of the Rockets players have brought strong self-confidence to the head coach. He can arrange his own tactics as he likes. Opponents can't use different tactics, and the same is the head coach's superb commanding ability and changeable tactics, which also cause players' confidence in the head coach. The layout can completely control the changes of the entire battle situation. Such a good atmosphere has already been formed, which has benefited the Rockets a lot.

It will take about half an hour. After Lao Tang explained the specific tactical layout, he said: "The code name 'piercing' actually comes from a tactic of the ancient cavalry. There is such a tactic. The ancient cavalry formed a cone-shaped battle formation, and attacked the weakest link in the enemy's infantry formation. Make an opening on the weak link and attack the enemy's rear, so everyone must keep in mind today's tactical explanation. Although I will guide you at any time, I still hope that my players can play with their own heads instead of Play with my head, get it?"

"clear"

The Rockets players roared.

"Okay, brats, let's go on a date. Tomorrow we have a game. Don't let me see you become soft-legged shrimp. If you let me see you, then you can sit on the bench and have a good rest." Rest, you know." Lao Tang said half teasing and half threatening.

Everyone in the Rockets burst into laughter.

In such a relaxed atmosphere, the Rockets ushered in the Los Angeles Lakers.

Before the game, the Lakers expressed cautious optimism, believing that the Lakers still have the ability to fight against the Rockets, but the final outcome depends on the results of the game.

The Rockets expressed their confidence in victory. Olajuwon said in an interview: We have made preparations to meet various challenges. We are not afraid of any enemy or any challenge.

Before the start of the game, Rockets home fans played a huge banner, 'We are ready to broom'.

Seeing the slogan, O'Neal was full of reluctance. When he stepped forward to say hello to Olajuwon, he said, "Hey, Hakeem, you Rockets fans are so enthusiastic that you can actually put up such a banner."

Olajuwon smiled and said: "Hehe, Shaq, why are you so scared? If you don't want me to talk to my players, let them be merciful to their opponents."

O'Neill's expression changed, and he said, "Why, Hakim, what do you mean, don't you think we are not your opponents, and just humiliate us like this."

Olajuwon still said with a smile on his face: "Hehe, Shaq, don't be so suspicious. I was just joking. I will give you a message in advance. I am not starting today. I wish you good luck today."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and returned to the Rockets to start preparing for the game.

Seeing O'Neill, whose face was a little livid, returned to his half-court appearance.

Olajuwon said to Lao Tang: "Coach, I have told you what you asked me to say. Can that fat man be fooled?"

Laotang Laoshen said: "Don't worry, I know that fat man, he will take the bait."

Returning to O'Neal in his own half, his face was covered with clouds. Harris on the side saw this situation and was worried about what happened to his main center forward, so he stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with you, Shaq, what's the matter?" Is it an uncomfortable place?"

With a sullen face, O'Neal shook his head and said, "No, coach, I just wonder why the game hasn't started yet, so I can play as soon as possible."

Looking at this situation, Harris knew that this kid was stimulated by others, so he comforted him: "Shaq, you have to know that you are our core now, you must not show any anxiety, that would be harmful to us. The game was very unfavorable.”

O'Neill closed his eyes when he heard the words, calmed down for a moment, then opened his eyes and said, "Don't worry, coach, I know what to do."

Looking at O'Neill who had gradually calmed down, Harris nodded with satisfaction and continued to guide others.

However, at this time, O'Neal secretly made up his mind to give the Rockets a good look.

With the referee's whistle sounded, the Rockets' first Western Conference semifinal against the Lakers began.

At the jump ball, an outburst O'Neal leaped past Ben and gave the point to Van Exel.

Van Exel observed the situation on the field. Today Olajuwon and Mark Jackson did not start. They were replaced by Big Ben and Bodi Roga.

Looking at Bodi Roga, who was more than 20 centimeters taller than him, Van Exel dared not be careless, and directed the Lakers players to start positioning and started a positional battle.

As usual, Big Ben continued to press against O'Neal, squeezing O'Neal's space without giving an inch.

However, today's O'Neill is particularly tough, he squeezed his body back violently, squeezed the space, and opened his hands to ask for the ball.

Van Exel saw that O'Neal's position was very good. He took a step, disguised himself in front of his body, opened up the passing space, and passed the ball directly to O'Neal's hands. After catching the ball, O'Neal suddenly thought to the left Turning around, holding his big Ben firmly behind his back, he was staggered and lost his center of gravity, and could only watch O'Neal take a big stride to the basket, grabbing the basketball with both hands, like a galloping bison In general, he smashed the ball into the basket heavily, that kind of wild momentum makes people tremble.

Looking at the trembling basket after landing, O'Neal shouted: "Like a basket, tremble in front of me." Immediately afterwards, he took his own overlord step and went back to his own half to defend.

As for the Rockets players, watching this wild dunk, instead of showing a look of fear, their faces were full of desire to fight.

Bodi Roga controlled the ball, raised his left hand, and said loudly: "Let's give them back the ball."

The fierce battle has officially begun.
