Chapter 308 The Terrifying Knights!(1/3)
As the protagonist of this game, this game against the Cavaliers is O'Neal's battle to establish his authority with the Suns.
It also announced that he came out of the return battle of the Black Eight Shadows last season.
As the first in the league, O'Neal is going to regain his former glory this season.
But as soon as this game started, I was slapped in the face like this. How could O'Neal bear it?
If O'Neal hadn't been the current O'Neal, he would have been furious now.
And now, O'Neal calmed down after an instant furious moment.
I, Shaq O'Neal, after being betrayed by Phil, am no longer that simple big boy. Now I have grown up and have grown up completely!
To be honest, a 32-year-old player said that he is no longer a big boy, which is indeed a bit disgusting.
However, if this happened to O'Neal, it would actually not be so disgusting, or even somewhat appropriate.
Because 32-year-old O'Neal was indeed a big boy before.
Even in history, O'Neal was 40 years old and had a big boy personality.
Now that I'm finally growing up, it's really a good thing for O'Neal.
Maybe, after retiring this time, you can finally get the respect of young players?
It’s too miserable for such a great player to be criticized by young people if he says something.
Do you see if the young people who say such words as you will argue with each other, do you think you are not majestic, do you think you are unreliable and don’t deserve to give us guidance?
It's gone far.
O'Neal now feels that he has been ruthlessly betrayed by Phil Jackson, and he no longer believes in simplicity. He has finally grown up. I won't talk about what impact this will have on O'Neal's life after retirement.
Now O'Neal's changes have had a great impact on the Suns, the league, and the Cavaliers.
After the Suns attacked, Fisher dribbled and pushed the ball through half, Fisher no longer needed to hesitate. Now the Suns, O'Neal is the first core, or even the only core, and no one else can compete with O'Neal.
Fisher doesn't need to worry about anything.
After receiving a pass from Fisher, O'Neal directly attacked Tyson Chandler behind him.
Tyson Chandler's defensive skills are excellent and his defensive movement speed is also very strong, but all of this, under O'Neal's big shark-style attack, the effect is quite bad.
We need strength, but we can't compare to O'Neal.
If you have height, you can't compare to O'Neal.
Even Tyson Chandler could not compare to O'Neal in even the small moves.
Even under O'Neal's singles, which were faster and more efficient than last season, Chen Xiao, who wanted to come to help, had not yet arrived at the scene where O'Neal singles to Chandler, O'Neal had already hugged Chandler and completed a one-handed dunk at the basket.
To be honest, O'Neal has been much more flexible after losing weight this season than last season.
O'Neal, who successfully lost weight, may not be that powerful, but his attack frequency is higher and his attack may be stronger.
How do you understand this passage?
Simply put, the fatter Shaq, because it is not that flexible and not so easy to catch the ball, may not be so many shots in a game, but because it is bigger, the offense is more powerful, the shooting rate is extremely high, and the efficiency is better.
O'Neal, who is less fat and more flexible, may not be that terrifying in offensive efficiency, but his playing time and number of shots in a game will increase a lot, and the number of contributions to the team's offense may also be greater.
To be honest, O'Neal could only make 14 shots per game with the Nets last season. This really cannot be blamed on the Nets for too many stars, because last season, the Nets formed the F7, which looks like they are tied to the dog championship, so O'Neal, who has never had much self-control, let himself go.
Anyway, I can win the championship no matter how I do it. I still don’t let myself go, and when will I let it go?
Finally, O'Neal's weight gain almost increased rapidly last season.
Last season, O'Neal's shooting percentage was indeed very high, and the playoffs were even 5 percentage points higher than in previous seasons, but the average game was a career low.
This is a very telling problem.
Seeing O'Neal now, O'Neal's current body shape is even smaller than O'Neal in the 2002-03 season.
That's right, O'Neal was already in the 20203 season.
After the triple crown, O'Neal was already floating.
But it has already reached its peak last season.
Now, O'Neal has regained the competitive spirit he once lost.
2 to 2!
Chen Xiao, who was one step late in assisting defense, looked at O'Neal's proud look at him and returned to defense. Chen Xiao blinked thoughtfully.
He wasn't shocked by O'Neal's strength.
As a fan of Kobe and a fan of the Lakers, he is the strongest O'Neal who looks like.
Now O'Neal is still far from the peak O'Neal.
Chen Xiao was mainly shocked by O'Neal's personality.
"Isn't this fat man really a sex change, right?"
Logically speaking, he had to yell in front of me with such a beautiful attack.
Could it be that this fat man has really gone from a big boy to an old yin cun?
Is this a bit big?
Well, Chen Xiao is actually very curious about O'Neal's mental journey in the past six months.
However, now is not the time to explore O'Neal's mental journey in the past six months.
On the court, the Cavaliers attacked. After the Cavaliers' dribble guard Xiao Mo dribbled the ball through half the game, he hit the ball in James this time.
Why isn’t Xiao Mo circulating Chen Xiao?
Of course, it is because Chen Xiao was unable to get rid of Rashid this time.
Rashid's defense is really not that easy to get rid of.
The Cavaliers have dual cores this season, and the offensive requirement is to be fast, hit the ball to Chen Xiao or James at the fastest speed.
In this game, James played the small forward, and against Sir Jr.
Xiao Si's defensive ability is far worse than that of Rashid.
It should be said that when Xiao Si was defending, he had no intention of fighting against James.
Well, in Xiaos' mind, when James holds the ball, except for defending his breakthrough, he doesn't even have to defend his shot. Let him shoot, and you're unlucky if you hit it.
Seeing Xiao Si's defense against Xiao Zhan, Chen Xiao blocked Rashid's position and waved his hand directly to Xiao Zhan, so that Xiao Zhan would not have to think about passing the ball to him, but attacked by himself.
To be honest, during the preseason, when James faced this kind of defense that took a step forward, he mainly focused on breakthroughs.
In this game, Xiao Si's defense was not easy to break.
Xiao Si is big enough and heavi enough, and he is also a defensive and sudden release. After all, Xiao Zhan is not a real tank.
Therefore, facing Xiao Si's crazy shooting, Xiao Zhan needs to shoot some shooting percentage.
Seeing Chen Xiao waved his hand at Xiao Zhan on the court, Teacher Zhang on the sidelines also smiled and said: "Chen Xiao is signaling James to take action himself. It seems that James' shooting this season has made Chen Xiao very confident."
"Jane said in an interview with the frontline that he is very confident in his shots now."
James often accepts interviews with CCTV basketball programs. CCTV can get a lot of first-hand information from James, and even these information is newer than the media in the United States.
This is really not a joke. James has a lot of things he doesn't say to the media in the United States.
Because now James has discovered that his pursuit is opposite to those on the American side.
People in the United States, whether they are media, business partners, or their agents and family, are not consistent with their pursuits.
However, the media and partners on China are consistent with their current pursuits.
They all want Cleveland to succeed.
Therefore, he is willing to share a lot of news about his improvement in his strength with the Chinese media.
But if I share it with people from the United States, my mother and the others will definitely want him to take back Cleveland's power.
This is very annoying.
By the way, by the way, in history, James' long-range two-point shooting percentage is higher than his mid-range shooting percentage.
Because in history, when James shot two points from a long distance, he had almost no defense. He was just shooting practice, and his opponent did not defend at all. When he was shooting at mid-range, his opponent would at least block it.
And now, Xiao Zhan is at two points from a long distance.
Facing Xiao Si's defense, which was completely undefensive, Xiao Zhan dribbled two balls under his crotch, pulled them up and threw out the basketball in his hand.
A brush!
James made a two-pointer from a long distance!
4 to 2!
This is James' first point this season, not obtained with breakthroughs, but with shooting.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan seemed particularly excited after scoring.
After hitting the scene, he still roared loudly at Xiao Si not far away.
