   On the 19th, major media outlets focused on reporting on the on-court conflict between the Suns and the Lakers, which was somewhat unfavorable to Lao Wang.

  Many American media ignored O'Neill's malicious foul, or briefly mentioned it, only highlighting the process of old K's beating, describing it as a vicious on-court violence incident, and calling for the league to suspend the game.

  New York, Jordan's home, he is preparing for vacation.

  He is planning to go to China*. There is a lawsuit going on in China*, but this time he is going to see the market there and see if he can develop his own business there.

  Picked up a stack of newspapers prepared on the table, flipped through, and saw a lot of violent incidents in the media attacking Old K.

  He is not surprised at all. The media is like this. After he won two consecutive championships in 1991 and 1992, he became the public enemy of the league. The media also treated him like this, looking for all his weaknesses, amplifying them, and attacking him desperately.

  Even after his father was shot dead, the media didn’t have good things to say about him. They speculated maliciously, saying that he owed gambling debts to the casino and that his father was shot dead by someone hired by the casino.

  The media do this for only one purpose, sales.

  There is no news more attractive than celebrity gossip, if there is no gossip, just make it.

  He is like this, and so is old K, even because he is not an American, it will only be worse.

  Pharaoh Wang was also flipping through the newspaper at home at this time. Jordan was not surprised, nor was he surprised.

  As early as after the Suns won three championships in five years, many American media began to target him, and then after the Lakers' first championship, he officially became the league's public enemy, and the number of American media targeting him skyrocketed.

  Especially after his comeback, this situation is even worse.

  Those who are not of my race must have a different heart. This sentence is also applicable in the United States.

  He has long been mentally prepared. Since he does not welcome me, then I will be a conqueror.

  He was more worried about Dayao. Dayao was implicated by him, and some media attacked him.

   Fortunately, Dayao and his personality are different, so the American media can't find any flaws.

But the American media couldn’t find it, but the domestic media could find it. Once Dayao went to a nightclub with his teammates and stayed in the lobby for a while. The domestic media almost cursed to death.

  …

  That night, the Nets and the Pistons started a G2 battle.

As a result, Dayao was limited by the tactics of going around the front, and his touch was mediocre. He only scored 18 points even with penalties. The teams were tied one to one.

   "Dayao, why are you so stupid, you can't handle it even if you walk around?" Old Wang still called Dayao to comfort him out of concern.

   On the 20th, the G2 game of the Western Conference Finals.

The Suns didn't play well this time. Under Fox's defense, Marion made 2 of 8 shots and only scored 4 points. Stoudemire made 3 of 7 shots and only scored 8 points with free throws. Only 35 points, 55% shooting.

  The Lakers played better. The OK combination scored 61 points together, and the five members of the team scored in double figures.

   "Brother, O'Neal scored 26 points on your head, how about I help you next season? We play high and low double-tower tactics, and we are invincible in the world."

  This time it was Dayao's turn to comfort Lao Wang.

   On the 21st, the Suns and Lakers came to Los Angeles.

  In the evening, the Palace of Auburn Hills in Detroit, the Nets and the Pistons started the G3 game. As a result, Yao scored 32 points and 16 rebounds, and Kidd scored 17 points and 18 assists. The two teamed up to defeat the Pistons and achieved a 2-1 lead.

   On the 22nd, the Suns and the Lakers launched a G3 battle.

   "King! King! King..."

   As the founder of the second dynasty of the Lakers, Lao Wang was warmly welcomed by countless Lakers fans at the Staples Arena.

   "Old K, come back!"

   Even many Lakers fans are clamoring for him to go back.

But Lao Wang did not show mercy. In this game, he exploded completely. On the offensive end, he overwhelmed O'Neal and blasted the opponent. In 46 minutes of the game, with only a two-minute rest, he made 19 of 29 shots, 65.5% from the field, and 15 of 18 free throws. He scored 53 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 3 blocks, 2 turnovers and 4 fouls.

  At the same time on the defensive end, the Suns used slashing tactics in a limited way. They sent a marginal player at the fourth position. In turn, O'Neal made 4 of 12 shots and 6 of 14 free throws, scoring only 14 points and 10 rebounds.

   "Old K, you guys played too roguely! Don't you think the slashing tactics insult your status as the number one player in history?"

   At the end of the game, O'Neal, who was full of grief and anger, yelled at Lao Wang.

   "You can kill me too, I welcome it very much." Old Wang said sincerely.

   "You have the guts to challenge me one-on-one!"

   O'Neill wanted to vomit blood and cut you off. Isn't that rewarding points?

   "One-on-one? Since the 1998 Finals, when have you been one-on-one with me? I have always singled you out, and you and your teammates double-teamed me. I remember that." Old Wang said in surprise.

   "..." O'Neill was speechless.

   On the 23rd, the Nets defeated the Pistons again, 3 to 1, and won the Eastern Conference Finals point.

   On the second day, on the 24th, the Suns, who were determined to win the match point, launched an attack on the Lakers and resorted to hacking tactics against O'Neal again.

  Head coach Phil Jackson has no way to deal with the slashing tactics. He can only reduce the pass to O'Neal and let Kobe play.

  But Jordan has long proved that no matter how efficient the outside line is, he can’t beat Old K. Moreover, the Suns played zone defense, and Kobe didn’t have many opportunities to play singles. In the end, the Lakers slipped into the abyss of failure step by step.

  Pharaoh scored 42 points on O'Neal, only allowing O'Neal to score 13 points, 3 to 1, and the Suns successfully won the match point.

  Barkley said before the live broadcast ended: "This series is over. Once O'Neal's poor free throws are targeted, the Lakers can only lose to the end and have no chance of turning around."

Kenny Smith said: "Playing against other teams, even if O'Neal is cut, he can win with his strong dominance, but old K is a super center with more dominance than him, and his own efficiency is higher than O'Neal's. , and then use foul tactics, the Lakers have almost no chance of winning."

  Barkley said playfully: "I think the league needs to add rules to limit hacking tactics, but how to restrict it?

The Suns cut O'Neal in these two games, both when he had the ball, and in fact they didn't cut much. They cut 5 times in the last game and 4 times this time, which forced the Lakers to dare not give the ball any more. O'Neal passes the ball. "

  Kenny Smith said: "The Suns and the Lakers are already close in strength. As long as they make a little cut, the Suns can gain the advantage. Who made O'Neal not free throw?"

   "Old K, let's go head-to-head in the next game. Don't double-team anyone, and don't attack anyone." After the game, O'Neill issued a challenge to the old king.

   "Do you have the final say?" Old Wang looked contemptuous.

   "Old K, we will mark the next game." Kobe walked over with a gloomy face, and issued a gauntlet.

  Old Wang smiled and said: "You two bastards, are you taking me for a fool? We can easily defeat you, why should I promise you?"

   "Old K, don't you dare?" O'Neill said angrily.

   "Old K, you beat us with slashing tactics, I don't accept it." Kobe said angrily.

   "What do you think?" Old Wang looked back at his teammates and the coaching staff.

   "Old K, we listen to you." Nash and others said.

   Ewing opened his mouth, but then closed it again. He is just a ring hugger, but he is not qualified to stop Old K.

  D'Antoni wanted to object, but he opened his mouth and didn't speak.

   Heads-up, although old K can beat O'Neal, but who can defend Kobe? Once Kobe and O'Neal play together, the old K can't prevent it. Wouldn't the Suns lose more and win less?

But old K's status in the Suns is too high, he can't stop what he wants to do, and now the team holds three match points, even if they lose one game, there shouldn't be any major problems, the worst is losing G5 In the battle, the G6 battle continued to kill the shark.

   "Okay, I promise you, I will always let you lose heartily." Old Wang nodded.

   "It's a deal." Kobe and O'Neal said at the same time.

   "It's a deal." Old Wang said.

  The agreement of the three was quickly spread by the media nearby.

   At noon on the 25th, the Suns and the Lakers arrived in Phoenix one after another.

  That night, in the Eastern Conference Finals G5 game, the Nets were defeated by the Pistons at home and lost a match point.

  26th, the game day of the Western Conference Finals G5 game.

   Lakers: O'Neal, Samaki Walker, Rick Fox, Kobe, Fisher

  Suns: Wang Tiejun, Amare Stoudemire, Marion, Hardaway, Nash

At eight o'clock, in the TNT commentary seat, Barkley said: "According to the agreement of the old K and OK combination, this game will be man-to-man, no zone defense, old K and O'Neal will be singled out, there will be no double-teaming, and Kobe will be the same. Kenny, which side do you prefer?"

   Without thinking about it, Kenny Smith said: "The Lakers."

   "Why?" Barkley asked.

"Singles, Kobe is unstoppable on the outside. And the old K and O'Neal singled out, it should not have the advantage of Kobe on the outside. O'Neal may not be able to prevent the old K's attack, but with his current tonnage, the old K wants to defend He was also difficult," Kenny Smith said.

Barkley couldn't help nodding and said: "Old K is indeed a little impulsive. In the first four games of the Western Conference Finals, he was in single defense, and his defensive efficiency against O'Neal was indeed not high enough. O'Neal, who weighs 150 kilograms, is really a big shark, unstoppable big shark."

  At the commentary table of CCTV, Zhang Lili said with some concern: "Tie Jun is still impulsive. Use the hacking tactics if it works. You shouldn't agree to the OK team."

  Su Qun said: "The main thing is that no one can defend Kobe on the outside. Once he goes in and connects with O'Neal, the old K can't defend."

  In the player tunnel, the two teams met in the starting lineup.

   "Old K, don't take your word for it." O'Neill said with some worry.

   "Do you think I'm you?" Old Wang said disdainfully.

   "Whoever speaks does not count, whoever carries the bag for the other party." O'Neill said quickly.

   "I'm waiting for you to carry my bag again." Old Wang said.

   "Don't even think about it!"

   After leaving a word, O'Neill rushed out of the passage angrily.

   "Kobe, do you still have the confidence to beat me?" Pharaoh asked with a smile.

   "If it doesn't work this year, then next year, I'm younger than you." Kobe said confidently.

   "Twenty years later, you can say that again." Old Wang laughed.

   "Twenty years later? What do you mean?" Kobe was at a loss.

"go out!"

   Lao Wang didn't know how to explain, and pushed Kobe out casually.

   At 8:30, the game begins.

   Jumping the ball, the 150 kg O'Neal is still too heavy, Lao Wang wins first, and the Suns attack.

   "What are you doing here?"

  O'Neill followed Lao Wang and found that Lao Wang stopped at the top of the arc and couldn't move. He asked with a headache.

   "Do your shit!"

  Mandarin, Pharaoh swears angrily, and promises you a one-on-one fight. You don’t care what tactics I play?

   At this time, Nash had already got rid of Fisher and rushed in from the side of Lao Wang and O'Neal, and then Lao Wang went down, received the pass, and took off in one step from the free throw line.

  This kind of dunk with terrifying impact, even if O'Neill stands under the basket, I'm afraid he has to stay away.

"boom!"

  The explosive and powerful dunk caused the cheers of the entire American West Arena to resound.

   "Old K, blow up the shark! Blow him up!" some fans shouted loudly.

   "Explode the shark! Explode the shark..." Countless home fans followed, and immediately formed an earth-shattering shout.

   Barkley laughed and said: "It seems that the Suns fans still support the old K and O'Neal very much."

Kenny Smith said: "Judging from this ball, as long as the old K pulls out and then hits in, O'Neal can't keep up with the rhythm, so I think on the defensive end, he may be blown up by the old K. How's the offense going?"

Barkley nodded and said: "Although O'Neal's weight is under control now, he is still 20kg heavier than old K, and his speed can no longer keep up with old K. Old K is the real speed of a small forward, and he should be the best among small forwards." It's fast."

Kenny Smith said: "O'Neill's problem is that his muscle mass is not as good as that of old K. Even if he controls his weight, his body fat percentage is too high. If he wants to really improve himself and maintain his state, what he needs to do now is not to lose weight. , but to lose fat and build muscle.”

   "Yes, lose fat and gain muscle, but I'm sure he can't do it, because I'm also fat, and I can't do it, and he can't do it either." Barkley said confidently.

   "Haha..." Kenny Smith shook his head and laughed.

   O'Neill came to the frontcourt at this time, and went to the basket with confidence. He is going to blow up the **** old K under the basket today.

"ball!"

  The left elbow pushes Pharaoh aside, and the right hand wants the ball.

  Kobe also knew that he could not beat Old K by himself, so he passed the ball immediately.

  Old Wang suddenly circled forward, but the clever O'Neill also made full preparations and took a step forward almost at the same time, failed to circle forward, and O'Neill received the ball.

   At this time, he immediately took a step back and retreated behind O'Neill. At the same time, O'Neill turned around, ready to get up.

"not good!"

  As soon as he jumped together, he knew it was not good, and was shaken by O'Neill.

  The next moment, O'Neill really jumped up, and across him was a heavy dunk with both hands.

"boom!"

   Lao Wang's falling body was knocked out of balance in the air, and at the same time, the basket above his head was exploded.

   "Fuck!"

   Being dunked by O'Neal, he couldn't help but cursed inwardly. Now he will have to dunk O'Neal three times in a single game to clean up the dunk.

   "Old K, as I said, you can't stop me in a one-on-one fight!" O'Neill roared extremely excitedly after he succeeded.

   "You are stupid, I have dunked you at least 30 times." Old Wang replied.

   "..."

  O'Neill rolled his eyes, and then distinguished: "That was before. At that time, my strength was not at the peak, and the previous ones don't count."

   "Since the previous ones don't count, does our heads-up promise count?" Old Wang asked curiously.

   "Okay, of course." O'Neill was dumbfounded and nodded quickly.

   "Does the number of times I dunk you before count?" Old Wang asked.

  O'Neill nodded in frustration and said, "Forget it, you win."

  Old Wang scolded: "You idiot, I will return this button to you immediately."

   At this time, the two had already arrived at the frontcourt of the Suns. Pharaoh fell to the high post and went straight to the low post on the left wing. He wanted to dunk O'Neal.

   O'Neill swallowed dryly. At 160 kg, he was also knocked over by Old K. Now at 150 kg, he needs to be more careful.

  The ball was passed in, and when Pharaoh took the ball, O'Neal directly pressed his chest against his back, not giving him any room to exert force.

   "Squeak!"

   But Lao Wang couldn't be bothered. With a quick turn, the sneakers seemed to be smoking.

   "Slip!"

   O'Neill retreated instinctively.

"boom!"

  Pharaoh dribbled the ball once and turned to face the basket while slipping, but when O'Neal retreated, he broke through and turned again, turning from facing the basket to backing up, and controlled the distance from O'Neal.

"not good!"

   Seeing that old K turned his back again, and pulled a foot away from himself, O'Neill, as an old opponent for so many years, knew something was wrong.

  He remembered the method Kobe taught him to prevent Iron Mountain from relying on hitting, and was about to take a lunge, but it was too late.

  The next moment, Pharaoh stepped down and approached O'Neill in an instant, and between his feet, the six forces merged into one, and Iron Mountain burst out with all its strength.

   "Boom!"

   An extremely heavy impact sounded.

"Uh!"

   O'Neill's majestic chest also felt crushed in an instant. Amidst the muffled groan, his upper body suddenly leaned back, and his feet stepped back again and again.

   "Old K?"

  He was knocked back, and he saw that old K was turning around and flying up, and he was about to be dunked. He was so anxious that his eyes were tearing apart, filled with grief and indignation, but he was powerless to stop it.

  The next moment, Pharaoh swooped down, and when he clasped his hands heavily, his legs parted.

   "Old K, do you dare?"

  The moment O'Neill saw Old K's legs spread apart, he really wanted to go crazy, riding a buckle, old K wanted to ride and buckle him, he was going to be seriously humiliated!
