At this moment, O'Neal was replaced by Mourning.

The big shark's face was full of smiles.

As he showed when chatting with Sun Hao, the Sharks refused to play against the Warriors at first, but what he feared most after becoming fat was to run back and forth on the field.

But after half a quarter, he entered the stage of "body is very honest".

The Warriors' inside configuration is to give him a sense of game experience!

Mooning came on as a substitute, and the Lakers still maintained their advantage on the field.

The difference between Sun Hao and Kobe is also clearly reflected at this stage.

Kobe is defeating you in one way, while Sun Hao is defeating you in the most correct way.

After O'Neal got out, he didn't take any action from the outside, and he attacked the basket.

The purpose of doing this is also clear, and the Warriors will not give the chance to grab long rebounds.

The Warriors didn’t have long rebounds, but they still couldn’t fight back!

Some people may ask, the Lakers are so determined to play at the basket, why doesn’t the Warriors shrink their defense?

Because you shrink your defense, you can't fight back!

The Warriors run fast, but they are also humans. If you want him to fly from the three-second zone to the three-point line, they can't do it.

If you have played 2K, you will be very clear. The fastest way to complete a fast break is to turn around and run to the frontcourt after the opponent takes action, wait for the backcourt teammates to grab the rebound and then give a long pass.

Moreover, if you want to increase your success rate, it is best for your teammates to grab long rebounds, so that long passes will not be easily disturbed and destroyed.

Now that the most critical link of the fast attack has been cut off, it is naturally difficult to fight back.

Old Nelson reached out to rub his forehead on the sidelines.

It was also against his former beloved disciple, but Sun Hao put much pressure on him than Nowitzki.

Moreover, Sun Hao has no technical shortcomings on the offensive end, and he is not as capable as Nowitzki.

One word, difficult!

As the game was played, the Warriors were beaten to lose their temper.

The Warriors team is excited and everyone can play.

But I have been hit like this and my momentum will soon disappear and the collapse will be faster than most teams.

Before the third quarter was finished, the Lakers had already established a 20-point lead and the game was over in advance.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Warriors 103-83 at home, winning the first victory of the semi-final opening game.

O'Neal made a double-double with 21 points and 10 rebounds in just 22 minutes.

This result is in sharp contrast to the first round of the Warriors and Mavericks' series, and has also sparked heated discussions among fans in the forum.

"Thank you, Lakers, I finally know where our team's problem is. How far Johnson is, go as far as he can!"

"There is no harm without comparison. We should really change the head coach, otherwise we are wasting the peaks of Kobe and Dirk!"

"Why don't we invite old Nelson back? He will be black-something when he returns, and he is familiar with the team, and there is no more suitable candidate than him!"

"I used to make people angry, but now I'm invited back? Do you think that old Nelson is alive?"

"Hey! This tells us that we cannot be voluntarily in our lives. No one knows what will happen in the future. We have to stay at the forefront of being a human being!"

"It's just a cheap Lakers, I'm going to the Western Conference Finals!"

"To be honest, I think it's hard to beat the Lakers even if we beat the Warriors..."

"Agree. I don't know if it's my illusion. I feel that the Lakers are still playing half-skiing, and neither Sun nor Shaq have made much effort."

"It's not an illusion, it's true. The Lakers' veterans have already come out, and the Lakers are going to defend their title!"

"The only one who can stop the Lakers is the Wizards."

"Where is the sun?"

"Nash will be covered in Sun's underwear again... Wasn't it like that when he was at the Warriors?"

"I don't think it's certain. The Suns' overall defensive ability is much better than the Warriors. I think the Suns and the Lakers can open at least 46 or even 55."

"No need to discuss, we will see it soon!"

...

While the forum was hot, the Suns and Nuggets were playing in another semi-final match in the West.

The reason why fans make remarks that "you will see the Lakers play the Suns soon" is because the Nuggets were beaten by the Suns...

In the future, fans often compare the Warriors with the Suns in history, and in fact they do have a lot in common.

Gorgeous and fierce offense, as well as defenses that are easily overlooked by fans because of their offense.

Many people may say that the Suns are often hit by their opponents for 110 or even 120 points, so how can the defense be calculated?

This is where data deceives people.

In the future, the game will often be 120 or even 130 points.

In addition to body whistle, a bigger reason is that the secondary attack has been reduced from the original 24 seconds to 14 seconds.

The direct result of this is that there are many more offensive rounds in the game, so the score will naturally increase.

This is also the reason why this Suns are often hit by their opponents by 110+ or ​​even 120+.

Because D'Antoni's 7-second offense aims to increase the number of rounds and then score and explode.

So don't be deceived by data. Look at the Suns' games more often, and you will find that their defensive strength is at the forefront of the league.

One of the most direct evidence is that the Suns rank fifth in the league in defensive efficiency this season.

The result of the young Nuggets facing such a team that is both offensive and defensive is imagined.

James' performance is quite normal, after all, what can really limit his performance is the super insider.

However, the performance of others was obviously diving under high-intensity defense, which also made the Nuggets lose the final big score.

After the game, Nuggets fans started a new round of calls, demanding to find a strong helper for James.

Some fans even hope to use such a voice to awaken the fighting spirit of other Nuggets players.

But facing the powerful Suns, whether this method can work must be a big question mark.

After easily winning the first game of the semi-finals, the atmosphere in the Lakers team was relaxed, and Sun Hao was in a very good mood.

On this day, after the training, Sun Hao and O'Neal were chatting in the training hall when they suddenly found a familiar head poking out of the door.

After looking at it, I realized it was Durant.

"How did you come in?"

Sun Hao walked over in surprise.

Places like training halls are not easy to enter and exit, and even journalists must be allowed to come in.

"The security guard at the door knew me, and he said he remembered you gave me sneakers."

After hearing this, Sun Hao was stunned for a moment and then started to laugh.

Durant is considered a relationship householder, so he has gone through the back door.

"Shake, come here to introduce you to the future superstars."

Sun Hao turned around and greeted O'Neal.

This is not the first time Durant has come to Staples Center. On the 81st night, he gave Durant the original sneakers;

This is not the first time Durant and O'Neal appeared in the same place. Before Sun Hao got married, he and O'Neal were both on the scene;

However, they had never met before, so Sun Hao happened to introduce it.

"I know you, Sun often mentions you to me, the future superstar."

O'Neal reached out to Durant.

Sun Hao was a little surprised. He didn't mention Durant to O'Neal.

But this is also like what a person with high emotional intelligence like O'Neal would say.

"Yeah?"

Durant's face turned slightly red and embarrassed.

But his reaction, well, this emotional intelligence happens to be the opposite of O'Neal.

O'Neal didn't care either, shook hands with Durant, and then went back to the locker room first.

Sun Hao and Durant sat down and started chatting.

Durant came to watch the game because he didn't buy tickets, so he came to ask Sun Hao for tickets.

Sun Hao nodded with a smile. This was something Durant would have done in his memory in his previous life.

Sun Hao asked him about the draft.
