Chapter 394 O'Neal's Challenge

Recently, the Lakers' performance in the regular season has made the entire league feel incredible. In the past February, after the All-Star Game, the Lakers, who were already a little down, looked almost shaky and shaky. In fact, at that time, many people thought that this team was about to fail. Even as the team's leading player, Lin Han was almost trampled on the ground by the media. However, after the game against the Spurs was almost considered by many people to be the greatest regular season game in NBA history, the Lakers, who were almost at the bottom, rose slowly, and after that game, the Lakers actually won ten consecutive victories!

Ten consecutive victories, although in the NBA, such a winning streak is not very rare, and it is even common for everyone, but it depends on when. Generally speaking, such a long-term winning streak basically occurs at the beginning of the season. At that time, some teams were well prepared for the season, and some teams were not well prepared for the season, so some teams were simply scary to win in a row, and even some teams with poor examples were quite easy to win in a row. For example, last season, the news of Jordan's retirement stimulated many strong teams in the entire league, and these strong teams who were determined to win in the championship were quite well prepared. The Supersonics, Rockets, Jazz and Knicks, all four teams won in a row in a row, and even the Rockets won more than 20 games in a row before they were ended by the Jazz. As for the Jazz, it created an incredible record of 37 consecutive victories.

After the winning streak at the beginning of the season, until later, when most teams experienced the preparation period. After the state was adjusted, winning streak was not so easy. In the NBA, if you want to win a long-term winning streak, the best time is the beginning of the season and the end of the season. As mentioned before the beginning of the season, many teams have not adapted to the state. As for the end of the season, many teams have begun to adjust for the playoffs, so teams without the playoffs are already in a state of being in a state of being scrambled to wait for the end of the season. In this case, if a certain team is still fighting hard, it is easy to win streak.

But now, it is a month before and after the All-Star team, which is commonly known as the NBA team, for the sake of the results of this season, most of the strong teams are not adjusting for the playoffs, but are fighting for the ranking of the playoffs. Even some weak teams who miss the playoffs must show their fans that they are not giving up the playoffs, but also working hard. It is just because their strength is not good, so some teams in the lottery zone are also doing the final face-saving project at this time. Except for teams like the Timberwolves and Wizards that have already given up their record early, almost every team is working hard. In this case, the Lakers actually won ten consecutive victories!

And the entire league has only the Lakers that have maintained a record of more than ten consecutive victories so far!

Therefore, after defeating the Heat and winning ten consecutive victories, the Lakers, with a record of 45 wins and 14 losses, is definitely not just as stable as the third in the West. Although the Lakers are only third in the West, in terms of record, the Spurs with a 46 wins and 13 losses and the Rockets with a 47 wins and 12 losses are not much different from the Lakers, that is to say, the Lakers are now chasing the two teams in the regular season record!

Although in the eyes of many people, the Lakers may not be able to catch up with these two teams, there is one thing that is, the Lakers have put pressure on the Rockets and the Spurs in terms of record, especially the Rockets. After Barkley came to the team, there is one problem that has not been solved, that is, after the stable structure of a two-big team in the team was broken, it is not so easy to establish a new balance. Although the Rockets' record is still very good now, it is still impossible to see that this team will have difficulties. That is because their current opponents have not made the team feel the pressure. After the formation of the Big Three, the performance of the Rockets in the face of huge pressure has not been recognized. At least, it has not yet been proved whether Barkley and Olajuwon can be intimate when facing difficulties.

Therefore, in terms of actual situation, although the Lakers are third now, there is no possibility of a rise. Let's see if the Rockets make mistakes. As for the Spurs, this team has always been in a strong future and rarely makes mistakes. Even if they were destroyed by Lin Han in the game against the Lakers, the team's record is quite outstanding. It is really stronger than the Jazz, not a little bit. Of course, this is just about the regular season. A single-core team like the Spurs, who are so desperate in the regular season, basically overdrawing the potential of the playoffs. However, after the All-Star deal was completed this year, after Cebaros and Maxville came to the team, this team was not as forced as before, and David Robinson may not need to overdraw the energy of the playoffs in the regular season.

Of course, no matter what, after the Los Angeles Lakers won ten consecutive victories, the entire NBA public opinion was put on this team. After all, the madness of the Lakers is simply too unbelievable.

Some media experts even think that if Carell, the "Lake Raider", had not caused trouble and maintained his All-Star form until now, the Lakers are likely to have reached the second place in the Western Conference, and may even be on par with the Rockets in terms of record. Obviously, isn't the reason why the Lakers have performed like this in recent times caused by the team's return to their original style of play?

As long as the Lakers give up the unrealistic Princeton system, there are definitely not so many teams that can beat the Lakers in the regular season, especially Lin Han, who is rare without the instability of ordinary players, the Lakers basically don’t have to worry too much about being reversed when facing weak teams. In this case, if the Lakers continue to play in this way, no matter what the playoffs will be like, in the regular season, this team’s record is likely to reach 60 wins!

When a team has only one core and this core is still a cancer, even Jordan and the Bulls were unable to push the team's record to 60 wins!

When Jordan's cancerous core style pushed the team to 50 wins in the season, it was already incredible. In the end, it also helped Jordan to gain the first MVP of his career. If Lin Han led the single-core team, this cancer style would eventually push the Lakers' record to 60 wins. This would definitely be a staggering pace.

After all, isn’t the so-called cancer-playing style relying on one’s own strength? Jordan brought the team to 50 wins and won the MVP with his own strength. If Lin Han used his own strength to push the team’s record to 60 wins, it would be really unreasonable if he couldn’t win the MVP. After all, Lin Han’s playing style is really the most typical single-core-led style of playing. Isn’t the team’s record entirely due to Lin Han’s achievement? It really has nothing to do with other Lakers players. Who would MVP be given to Lin Han?

Don’t think it’s easy to lead a team to win fifty wins in a single-nuclear cancer. As one of the strongest players in his personal ability, Chamberlain, when he was in the Warriors, he never had the requirement of leading a team to reach fifty wins in a single season. His best record was 49 wins and 33 losses. Chamberlain at that time was a typical single-nuclear cancer-style play. At that time, Chamberlain only won the regular season MVP once, and the only time was because Chamberlain was a rookie. Although his record was not high for a rookie player, his data was excellent. In addition, the team improved, he barely got the MVP. After that, even this guy averaged 50 per game and could not get the MVP. It was not until Chamberlain changed his cancer-style play to the 76ers. This guy completed the three consecutive MVP championships in the 76ers.

Therefore, in the eyes of many expert fans, for players like Chamberlain, Jordan and Lin Han, who lead the team alone, can improve the regular season record to 50 wins. That is the ultimate, and Jordan has achieved the ultimate before. So Jordan won the MVP, and Lin Han, if he really won 60 wins, it would really make history. Even if the United States today says that Lin Han will become the first person in the history of the cancer world, winning the championship with a cancer-like style, and finally standing side by side with Russell, it is a bit exaggerated. However, if Lin Han really leads the Lakers to 60 wins this season, it will be the first person in the history of the cancer world in the regular season.

Of course, after the Lakers won ten consecutive victories, the entire league was calling out that Lin Han and the Lakers might win 60 times in the season. At this time, even whether Lin Han can win MVP is no longer the focus of discussion, because for Lin Han, as long as the Lakers can enter the top four this season and have a record of more than 50 wins, no one can compete with MVP. In this case, for Lin Han, it is of course very normal for Lin Han to create a regular season record of single-core leading the team with cancer playing style.

However, Lin Han had no idea about these people's expectations, because he had no idea that these experts could find so many data, such as the best record of leading the team, and the first cancer in history. This seems to be praising people, but the more Lin Han listened, the more he felt that he was scolding people. Although Lin Han really didn't care that others said he was a cancer or not, since he chose this style of playing, he had such mental preparation. If he did not have such mental preparation, even if he had a system, he would not dare to make 72 abnormal games. Damn finally made a 62 iron shots.

It's just obvious that although Lin Han doesn't care about the title of cancer or not, Lin Han doesn't think it's embarrassing to be called a cancer. After all, cancer play style, defensive play style, all-round play style, etc. are just a way of playing for the NBA. It's just because the defensive play style and all-round play style have ruled the NBA, and the cancer play style has never ruled the NBA, so it's just artificially discriminated against. This is not that this play style is originally low, but that others think that the playing style that cannot win the championship is low, and this has nothing to do with Lin Han.

However, even if Lin Han can think so, others may not think so. For example, his teammates are quite unhappy at this time. For Lakers players, are these media experts praising Lin Han or scolding Lin Han? There has never been a case of praising people like this in the history of the NBA!

Of course, no matter what, many of the Lakers players were not very satisfied with the outside world at this time, but everyone was happy. The team had won ten consecutive games, so what else could the team be unhappy? And more importantly, because Lin Han's talent in Princeton's tactical system, and Jerry West returned to the team, Carell did not dare to mess around, so the current situation of the Lakers is that when the team was training, most of them were practicing Princeton's tactical system, but during the game, Carell no longer asked the team to continue to play the unformed Princeton tactics. After all, because Lin Han's tactical progress was too fast, the speed had completely exceeded Carell's imagination. Under Lin Han's driving, coupled with the Magician's unyielding mood

The tactical understanding of these two core players can be described as a thousand miles a day. Even if the Lakers players are mentally retarded, the speed of progress is quite terrifying under the leadership of these two core players, and this is interpreted by Carell as Lin Han's full support for him. If Lin Han does not fully support him, with Lin Han's current status in the team, Lin Han can completely oust him after 94 points. Especially the recent record of winning streak, this is all caused by Lin Han's cancer style, especially in the first time before. Lin Han still lets everyone know that the ultimate cancer style can lead the team to win three games in a row. In this case, Lin Han is still interpreting the Princeton system with all his strength. In Carell's opinion, this is really touching.

Since Lin Han has expressed his opinion like this, if Carell still judges a gentleman with a villain's heart and is afraid that Lin Han will seize his power through the game, it would be really too villain. In the end, with many considerations, Carell finally gave up his plan to let the Lakers play Princeton in the game, which is also the reason why the Lakers have performed extremely well in recent times. Lin Han's data has recovered very quickly. After holding it in for so long, coupled with the increase in character value now, Lin Han is really having fun scoring. Moreover, because the Lakers did feel that their boss Lin Han was greatly wronged for a while ago, these players are really constantly feeding Lin Han on the court. Even Dominic Wilkins, a cancer, is rare in the previous games, not waiting for Lin Han's pass, but often trying to cover Lin Han and fake running positions. This is also quite rare.

Everything in the Lakers is now developing in a very good direction, which makes Lin Han very happy. After all, he has once again obtained the initiative of MVP with his own efforts, and even has the right to decide. As long as Lin Han does not make mistakes in the remaining twenty games in the future, then no one can grab MVP from him. Even the most difficult scoring champion, Lin Han's current average score has once again reached 41 points.

, Jordan's average score has reached 0.5 points, and so on. With Lin Han's scoring trend and Jordan's scoring trend, the entire league's control over Lin Han and Jordan is getting bigger and bigger. During this period, due to the weak opponents, Lin Han really scored a lot of points. If there are a few more games against weak teams, Lin Han is really confident that he will score the average score similar to Jordan, and the opportunity to win the scoring champion will be right in front of him!

Of course, if all this is developing in a good direction, then the only thing that is not so good is probably because of the second wave of indiscriminate flattery of Lin Han in the United States. This makes Lin Han's character once again decline at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Originally, Lin Han had a 75% character at the highest point, but now it is only 68%. If you drop at this rate, Lin Han will probably return to around 50% again. At this time, Lin Han really understands what Ali said before. A person's character is really the same as the shooting rate of NBA players. No matter how high or low the shooting rate was before, the final development direction is going toward 50%. Of course, this

He is an ordinary player, but Lin Han is not an ordinary player. He is a player who masters the trend of the NBA. If such a player performs well, it is really a focus and praise it all over the United States media, and it lasts for quite a long time. Unlike some ordinary superstar players, and more importantly, Lin Han is a bit bad. He is not as strong as Jordan's ability to attract hatred. Lin Han's ability to attract hatred is actually quite strong, but compared with Jordan, this is still incomparable.

So, after leaving Miami and coming to Orlando, Lin Han really hid directly into his hotel room. After coming to the system space, he looked at the character on the attribute panel who was constantly declining.

"No, it won't work if you fall like this. Damn, according to the posture of these guys. If the Lakers continue to win in a row, these guys will really continue to focus all their attention on me. No, you must change the focus!"

This situation is really speechless for Lin Han. In fact, it is very simple to make these guys not brag about him. Lin Han can just lose one or two games directly, but Lin Han has never been willing to lose intentionally for any purpose. Even at the end of the season, his friend's team needs to lose by themselves to enter the playoffs, Lin Han is absolutely unwilling, let alone losing for character. However, for other players, when the playoffs get closer, they are really adjusting their state, while Lin Han adjusts his state to adjust his character. Because his state can be restored through the system, but character is not good, so he will never allow his character to fall below 50% before the playoffs come. This is absolutely not allowed!

Therefore, even if you don’t want to lose, Lin Han still needs to find a way to stop such things. Of course, if the opponent in this game is too weak, Lin Han doesn’t mind using the blessing of the Goddess of Doom and brushing the iron again. But it is obvious that how could the Clippers compare with the Magic? Even the Timberwolves before, Lin Han dare not play like playing the Clippers. You know, the Clippers in the league are really the only team without the NBA strength. Even the Timberwolves and the 76ers, no matter how bad it is, this is an NBA-level team, and they are not so easy to win. A team like the Clippers is really rare. Lin Han really wants to use the blessing of the Goddess of Doom to himself, which is the rhythm of the team losing.

As for the blessings of the Goddess of Doom to other players, this can change the focus, but it will consume 10 points of character. Although Lin Han's 10 points of character may not last long after it continues to blow like this outside, it is obvious that there is a difference between reducing 10 points at one time and slowly reducing 10 points.

Therefore, although the Lakers are in good condition now, Lin Han is not without worries. In fact, Lin Han has a lot of worries. If he has absolute strength, there is nothing. If Lin Han doesn't want to score the top, there is nothing. However, if he wants to compete with Jordan, he must ensure that his character value cannot be low. Just like now, he can still have a slight advantage in the competition with Jordan. However, if his character value is low like before, Jordan will be the one who has the advantage.

On the afternoon of March 10, 1995, at the Orlando Stadium, although the Lakers were doing pre-game training, the stadium was still surrounded by reporters.

This game between the Lakers and the Magic is not just a strong conversation. Because of the relationship between Lin Han and Hardaway, although the attention of this game is not as good as Lin Han and Jordan, it is not much different. In addition, the record between the Magic and the Lakers has been really outstanding in recent times. In this case, the attention it has attracted can be imagined.

"Lin Han is a very outstanding player. He is now the biggest favorite in the league's MVP. Are you confident of defeating them? I think we will all think of various ways to defeat the opponent in this game."

"Hahaha, Lin? Our relationship is indeed very good, but the Magic have won eight consecutive games now. As long as we can beat the Lakers in this game, we can briefly reach the No. 1 position in the Eastern Conference, so I will never show mercy in this game. No. 5 in the latest MVP ranking? I didn't pay attention to this list because it cannot reflect my value. I think Lin and I should be the same level opponent. If we can win the first place in the league, I think you will vote for me first, right? Hahahahaha."

Before this game started, as the best team in the East, the two bosses of this team, both Hardaway and O'Neal expressed strong confidence in winning, especially the team's super center O'Neal. Although the focus of the entire American public opinion has been on Lin Han in recent times, even Jordan is much worse than that, as one of the strongest inside players in the league, O'Neal's performance in recent times is not bad, because this guy is the best player in February.

With his stable performance in recent times, although he is only ranked fifth in the MVP rankings, just like O'Neal himself said. As long as he can surpass the Bulls and become the number one in the Eastern Conference, this Lakers player is likely to rise to second in the MVP rankings. If the Magic's record can eventually become the first in the league. Although it is difficult for him to compete with Lin Han, with O'Neal's age and his favored by the media, this guy may really pose some threat to Lin Han.

Especially in the direct confrontation between the two sides this season, if O'Neal performs better, he hopes will be higher. So before the game, this childish big man directly canvassed votes from those reporters, which made Lin Han quite speechless. He is not as shameless as O'Neal, and he really can't do such a thing.

However, it is understandable that O'Neal is so confident about this game. After all, the Lakers are really strong, but the Lakers' inside line is really bad. Whether it is Rodman, Aaron Williams or Harvey, these three Lakers' inside lines. This is the rhythm of being killed by O'Neal. With the characteristics and abilities of these three people, even if the three of them go together, they may not be able to stop O'Neal.

And judging from this kid's statement before the game, this guy is preparing to fight Lin Han and the Lakers in this game.

With Lin Han’s understanding of him, this guy doesn’t think he is careless and always has a smile on his face, but in fact, this guy’s heart is quite dark.

Even though he didn't know that O'Neal's heart was quite dark, the Lakers' inside line, Aaron Williams and Harvey, who had already been determined to play in this game, were very nervous at this time. Because of O'Neal, the Lakers did not dare to continue playing Rodman's power forward strategy. Rodman is too short. Although he is very strong and can use his own strength to withstand David Robinson, O'Neal is not David Robinson. Without the advantage of strength and no height, the Lakers' inside line should not be played, so in this game, Harvey also replaced Rodman as the starter. Compared with Rodman, although he could not withstand O'Neal, Harvey still has a height, even if he stood at the basket as a meat shield.

However, due to Rodman's rise, Harvey and Williams started separately, and the number of times they started together was quite limited. This time, facing an inside player of O'Neal, it is understandable that these two people were a little nervous. After all, the Lakers are in a very good condition now, and these two people don't want to cause some problems to the team because of themselves.

"Aron, Anthony, don't worry, we will definitely win this game."

After adapting to the field training in the afternoon and receiving pre-match interviews from the reporters on site, Lin Han also said with a smile when facing the two teammates who were a little nervous at this time.

Although he knew that Lin Han was comforting himself, after Lin Han finished speaking, the two Lakers' inside players were in a much better mood.

At 7 o'clock on March 10, 1995, the Los Angeles Lakers came to the second game of the East. At this time, the Magic's home court, the Orlando Stadium, was packed.

No matter how nouveau riche the Magic fans are, the Magic have performed quite well recently. In this case, these Magic fans will of course support their team with all their strength, so when Lin Han and Lakers players come out of the player channel, they can clearly feel the huge pressure from the fans on site.

"Chinese boy, your winning streak has ended here. Shaq will beat you here!"
