The Lakers are the strongest team against the Nets, and power forward Karl Malone returned three days ago.As a famous Iron Man in the NBA, Malone only missed 11 games in his 18-year career before joining the Lakers, five of which were suspended.This season, he began to suffer from injuries.It's old, and it's not okay if you don't accept it.Because "Big Shark" O'Neal doesn't like to defend and pick-and-roll, Malone is the interior pillar of the Lakers' defensive system.In the more than 20 games he missed, the Lakers could only reuse Medvedenko, a white power forward known as the "Ukrainian softass", which was the reason for their declining record.The Nets are now 42-13 and top of the league, beating the Kings 42-15.The Lakers have a 37-20 record, half a game behind the Spurs and fourth in the West.That night, TNT Radio broadcast, Barkley analyzed the gossip of the two sides before the game, and the advantages and disadvantages of the lineup.Barkley's commentary does not only rely on "big mouth", he is also a leader in the commentary on the amount of basketball knowledge, and a lot of data comes out of his mouth.As an old rival, he admires Karl Malone and considers him an indispensable member of the Lakers."
Whether the Lakers can win today, the key lies in Malone's defense, and the defense and dismantling must be fast, which is not easy for veterans.""
Looking at the player's fame, the Lakers have a clear advantage, but the Nets have also improved this season, maybe they can rely on mobility and the Lakers, I am more optimistic about the Lakers."
Smith said.Nets starters: Kidd, Kittels, Wang Jun, Martin, Collins.Lakers starters: Payton, Kobe, Fox, Malone, O'Neal.Except for Kobe, the Lakers are all veterans.The Nets sent Kittels to defend Kobe, who was better than Jefferson in terms of breakaways, and the two were about the same height and could interfere with shots.Both sides jumped the ball, O'Neill won, and the game began.Payton controls the ball to the frontcourt.and O'Neal to play the pick-and-roll.O'Neal is huge and can block his opponent completely.Payton broke through on the left and made a one-step pullup jumper, Martin was defending against Malone, and Collins was afraid of O'Neal's empty cut.The change of guard was not very positive.Payton is averaging just 125 shots per game this season.He still had 146 points and 55 assists while shooting 471 from the field.Changing defenses slowly, he hit a solid jump shot.0 to 2.The Nets attacked, and Wang Jun got rid of it by covering on the side, and found that the situation was very different from what he thought.Looking at the Lakers' defensive formation, O'Neal is fixed in the low post and Malone is in the middle.The other three rotated.After Wang Jun dodged Fox.It was Kobe Bryant who changed the guard.Wang Jun shook it for a while, and before he could dribble the ball, he was cut off by Kobe Bryant's right hand, and he moved quickly.Then, Kobe Bryant moved the ball forward with his left hand, started at full speed, and fought with Wang Jun, who turned around, to get the basketball and break quickly.Wang Jun was completely thrown away.Watching Kobe dunk with one hand.0 to 4.He often sees people on the news commenting that Kobe Bryant's physical fitness is not good, and it all depends on his hard work.The results of the training at four in the morning.A person who has become a dunk king, how can the quality not workKobe Bryant is obviously the top in the league, but his reference is often Jordan, so he is said to be bad.Speed, strength, flexibility, bounce, and coordination are combined, and there are few people in the league who dare to say that they must be stronger than Kobe.The Nets attacked, Kittels ran to catch the ball, Malone changed defenses, Kittels made a quick shot and missed, and the rebound was grabbed by O'Neal.The Lakers battled in a positional battle, and Payton slowly led through the half.This is where the veterans are great, they don't compete with the youngsters, they play by experience, and they know how to save energy and turn their disadvantages into advantages.Payton passed the ball to Fox, who hoisted the ball to O'Neal on the right side and ran to the bottom corner, and Bryant reached 60 degrees to form a triangle.O'Neill singles out Collins.There is a big difference in size between the two, and in the 2002 finals, O'Neal's abusive Collins had no temper at all.Now that O'Neill is older, he is still sure to beat him.Leaning his back against Collins and taking two steps to the middle, no one came up to wrap it, he used his left foot as the axis, his right shoulder shook slightly, and turned to the baseline to shoot.Collins is a macho man, and he goes all out against O'Neal, not letting the opponent easily squeeze into the basket, but O'Neal doesn't dunk every time, his turning and one-handed throw is a stunt, and it is difficult to block by relying on his size to gain space.Collins tried his best just to resist people, and he couldn't jump up when he was squeezed.O'Neill scored with an easy cricket kick, 0-6.The Nets attacked, Kidd singled out Malone in the middle, shook out space, and missed the basket with a jumper, and O'Neal grabbed the rebound again.To the frontcourt, the Lakers still hung O'Neal, Kobe Bryant and Fox formed a triangle.Collins continued to defend alone, O'Neal squeezed twice in the same action, turned to the bottom line and shot, Collins couldn't cover it, and the ball went in.0 to 8.O'Neal is averaging only 21 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists per game this year, both of which are new lows since entering the league, and many people say he is old.Some people also saw the news that Kobe Bryant and O'Neal tore each other apart, and said that he didn't work hard, ignoring his consumption in hand-to-hand combat on the inside and his injuries.Due to the limited range of the attack, O'Neal had to move closer to the basket.Scoring in the low post is a symbol of dominance on the inside, but it also comes at the risk of more injuries.Since 2002, O'Neill has been suffering from foot injuries, which are so heavy that his feet and knees are under a lot of burden.Moreover, he has been playing more than 35 minutes all year round.Under such conditions, how could he risk a stress fracture and practice like Kobe, who weighed only 95 kilograms, The Zen master said that O'Neal's injury has never healed 100 times, and it is not easy to have a peak period for several years.Few people know that O'Neal's abdominal strain is permanent, causing him to be unable to jump with his hands open, which is why O'Neal has the highest rebounding block in his rookie season.Imagine how high a rookie can score 139 rebounds and 35 blocks in his rookie season without being affected by injuries.The injury has been recurring frequently, resulting in O'Neal missing a large number of games, while his right big toe is also an old injury.In the peak 9900 season, O'Neal won almost all the honors, scoring title, regular season V, second in rebounds, third in blocks, Finals V, best team, best defensive team, and second in the best defensive player selection.His efficiency is the best for several seasons.O'Neal's dominance is staggering, and now even if the data hits a career low, it is still a super inside, and it is not something Collins can defend alone.The Nets attacked, Kittels hit the iron with another jumper, and the Lakers battled the position and continued to give O'Neal.The big shark received the ball and arched twice, turned and forced Collins to foul him.O'Neal made one of two free throws to make it 0-9.The Nets attacked, Kidd and Martin blocked in the middle, Kidd dribbled the ball to the left side, opened up space, and Martin cut inside.Kidd passed the ball to the middle, and Martin was ready to make a big dunk to boost morale and go to the basket.O'Neal let go of Collins' defense, jumped high and pressed his right hand on the basketball accurately, ruining Martin's dunk and knocking him to the ground.Emaciated sharks are bigger than horses.The referee didn't blow the whistle, the Lakers broke fast, and Kobe Bryant scored a layup on a single Kittels.0 to 11.Just after falling behind by a large score at the beginning, the Nets were very difficult to play.S: On the first day of the new year, I want to recommend, collect, and support genuine, and I wish you all a happy new year:
