“Flazing wings: The wind blew up the second stage.

Goal 1: Under the guidance of the host, Zhang Hao needs to help the Lakers sweep the Suns to advance to the second round in the first round.

Reward: Lifespan of 15 days, Activate Target 2.

Punishment of failure: The series of missions about Zhang Hao ended."

The task is not difficult, and the team's goal of preparing for the game is to sweep and advance.

"The wind blowing from Nash is a whirlwind of the era of bombing. Perhaps it means that I also have the opportunity to create my era..."

The referee came to the court with the ball. Zhang Hao put away his distracting thoughts and focused. Anyway, the task goal is not complicated or difficult, so he just plays according to the established ones.

At 8 p.m., the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game and threw the ball into the air.

Zhang Hao easily won the jump ball from Hort Williams, and the Lakers attacked first!

O'Neal rushed to close and received the ball, turned around and carried the attacking Cebaros aside with brute force, pressing AC Green back to the basket and smashed the ball into the basket.

Fierce, cruel!

At the beginning, O'Neal made a quick attack and hit two dunks to help the Lakers score two points.

George Lynch, who was no one defending the other side, was speechless. As long as O'Neal passed the ball, he, someone else could easily dunk...

But this also shows O'Neal's enthusiasm.

Zhang Hao defeated Jordan and won the scoring leader, and O'Neal didn't want to fall behind. Facing the Suns, he continued his enthusiasm after the All-Star Weekend.

Offensive and defensive conversion, Suns attack.

Kevin Johnson advanced to the frontcourt and played singles Doug Christie through, but he failed to get out of defense even after breaking through to the middle distance, and passed back to Kidd who moved to the top arc.

When Kidd received the ball, Kenny Anderson followed closely. Kidd didn't need to worry about other areas, but the three-pointers after shortening the 45-degree angle on both sides to the top arc still needed to take care of it. Since Zhang Hao put two meters away to defend, Kidd has been working hard to practice this. This season's All-Stars shots after the All-Stars weekend, and the Lakers have also paid attention to this point in preparation.

After receiving the ball, Kidd faced Kenny Anderson's defense and directly pressed Kenny Anderson to break through!

In terms of strength, Kidd is at the small forward level, with a weight of 93 kilograms and a strength of 86, which is very outstanding.

After breaking to close range, Kidd posted Zhang Hao and sent the ball with a beautiful pass, pulling it to Hot Williams, who was outside the left side of the three-second zone, hit a close range throw!

Although I don't think I can win, Kidd, who played in the playoffs for the first time, is still very hard.

It is precisely because he doesn't think he can win that Kidd plays more easily, without any pressure, with clear ideas, and does a very good job of moving defensive players, moving teammates' position and characteristics.

Many teams like to form double guns on the outside when they cannot get the top inside, especially those teams that have the ability to enter the playoffs but do not have the ability to win in the playoffs. There is a reason why they especially like to form double guns on the backcourt.

Because the defender has the ability to raise the team's strength limit!

The Suns started with Kevin Johnson and Kidd’s sudden score, and the Lakers played very well in offense and defense. However, the Suns, who were barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, relied on their infinite impact to bite the score!

The Lakers only scored two points in the first quarter and entered the official timeout at 7 minutes and 22 seconds.

Del Harris was not panicked. He rotated whatever he should do. He didn't let O'Neal play. When the official timeout was suspended, he replaced O'Neal and replaced Kenny Anderson, Wilkins, Magicians, Barkley, and Zhang Hao.

The requirements for the players are not to be careless and must do their best to sweep the Suns. However, when the Silver Fox is playing against the Suns, he still wants to continue to strengthen the lineup rotation adjustment, continue to strengthen tactical details, etc.

If you have strength, you can do whatever you want...

On the other side, Danny Angie sent a combination of Kidd, Wesley Person, Rex Chapman, Danny Manning, and Mark Bryant.

Only then did Danny Angie send the team's two best inside players.

Suns players don’t think they can beat the Lakers, and the Suns management doesn’t expect their lineup to be famous in the playoffs and just cultivate Kidd, who has outstanding talent.

But Danny Angie just wants to make things difficult for the Lakers and put the strongest lineup in the rotation stage.

Danny Angie is now very surprised. They only lost two points at the stage. AC Green, Cebaros, and Kevin Johnson are all doing well in scoring.

Now that it is the rotation stage, they have the opportunity to play an advantage!

Zhang Hao also felt a little pressure after he came on the court, and was ready to go all out in the rotation stage. In the stage, he scored 2 points in counterattack, almost all of him were opening up space. The second pass passed the ball, and it was time to exert force.

However, his teammates don't give him a chance...

In the last 4 minutes of the first quarter, Barkley scored a low post, received the ball and shot in the middle distance, turned around and dunked... In 4 minutes and 38 seconds, Barkley scored 9 points alone!

In the process, Zhang Hao quickly adjusted his playing style and focused his full strength on close defense, giving Danny Manning of the 88th generation and Kidd who rushed in each of them. The main reason was that Barkley made 4 of 4 shots from 4 shots, which made the Suns stunned. In addition to scoring 9 points, Barkley also passed Kenny Anderson back a three-point assist, plus Zhang Hao's counterattack dunk... The Lakers scored a 14-6 climax in the next 4 minutes.

Big Fat started very hard, scoring 8 points, 1 assist and 1 block in more than 7 minutes, Barkley was even stronger, scoring 9 points and 1 assist in more than 4 minutes!

With a combined 17 points and 2 assists in the first quarter, the Lakers led the Suns 30-20 10 points!

4 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks. Zhang Hao, who was replaced at the beginning of the second quarter, looked at his data and then looked at the double fat...

"I! Happiness comes too suddenly!"

...

Those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. This mentality can indeed be very relaxed, but if you can't beat it, you really can't beat it.

The Suns, who were 10 points behind in the first quarter, were beaten up by the Lakers James Robinson, Brian Shaw, Wilkins, Barkley and Jason Williams in the first half of the second quarter.

In the half-quarter of Barkley, 6 points, 1 steal and 1 assist, Wilkins scored 5 points, James Robinson made two three-pointers, Jason Williams had one more dial... With the performance, over half of the second quarter, the Lakers widened the gap to 17 points, leading the Suns 48-31!

When Zhang Hao was on the court again, he found that he could clock in and get off work in half!

The score hasn't reached double digits yet!

No, you have to get up alone!

In the second half of the second quarter, the Lakers originally wanted to play an offense that mainly focuses on O'Neal's absolute advantage in the interior. With the shooting ability of Zhang Hao, James Robinson and Wilkins, the team cooperated with the Magician's center support.

But after the official timeout, Zhang Hao started to throw it from the outside. O'Neal saw that he didn't pass the offensive rebound after grabbing it, and the dunk was done!

After halftime, Zhang Hao scored 13 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks, O'Neal scored 14 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks and 1 steal, Barkley scored 15 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, the Lakers led the Suns 65-41, and entered garbage time in the entire second half!

In this half game, Suns coach Danny Angie cursed three big tricks in her heart!

The key is that these three players are trying their best to score, and the Suns can't stop them! These three players alone have scored 42 points, one more point than the entire Suns!

Danny Angie was crazy. It would be fine if there was no chance at the beginning, but it seemed that there was a chance to cause trouble for the Lakers at the beginning. But as soon as Barkley came up, he scored 15 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists in 12 minutes, directly erasing the opportunity in his eyes... He was going crazy!

But the Suns players were not surprised at all.

Cebaros is still missing the years when he worked with Zhang Hao, Van Exel and others last season. Kidd guessed that the ending was like this. The gap in strength was too obvious. Any of these three people was better than him.

Mark Bryant was very depressed that he was going to the Lakers!

...

In the entire second half, the Lakers did not play the three major players in the frontcourt again, but the final result was no surprise.

Relying on Kenny Anderson to score 9 assists, Wilkins scored 16 points and 5 rebounds, Jason Williams scored 8 points and 11 rebounds, and the Magicians scored 12 points and 4 rebounds and 4 assists... The Lakers slaughtered the Suns 116-90 and won their first victory in the playoffs!

At the end of the game, Zhang Hao, O'Neal, Magician, Kenny Anderson and others did not get a post-match interview opportunity. The post-match interview candidate selected by CNN was Barkley.

6 shots, 3 of 5 free throws, and scored 15 points in 12 minutes, directly helping the Lakers to establish the victory... Although the opponent is a 38-win team, Barkley's performance is completely different from the regular season, and the transformation of a real thigh into a real thigh became the focus of this game!

...

...

Facing his old club, Barkley not only did not ruthlessly, but instead performed extremely violently, which caused widespread heated discussion after the game.

Buck used his practical actions to tell people that the regular season buddies are just playing...

There is also Zhang Hao's first performance, with 13 points from 4 of 8 shots, which doesn't seem to be outstanding at all. It's somewhat unexpected. After the regular season, after the first game of the playoffs, Jordan has not been interviewed to express his views on the scoring king's battle. Jordan's first game in the playoffs was 44 points, which is obviously venting his dissatisfaction with the losing scoring king and proving his scoring ability.

At this time, many people thought that Zhang Hao should continue to compete with Jordan in the first game of the playoffs, but Zhang Hao didn't. He just played for 18 minutes and the number of shots was not high. He made 8 shots, including the one that made 2 of 2 free throws, and only threw 9 times in the first half.

But this situation happened to Zhang Hao, which is not so surprising.

Time Warner Cable Sports is the first American media to brag. Hubby Brown bluntly stated that compared with Jordan, Zhang Hao is more calm, calm and team-oriented.

When the Bullets coach and players saw Hubby Brown's evaluation, they wanted to go and fight this 60-year-old man in his 60s!

Do you think they weren't hit hard enough by Jordan?

You are touting that gentleman, but it is their Bullets who vent their vent!

After the first game day of the playoffs this year, the Bullets players wanted to go fishing. The only thing they could be glad was that there would be no Washington Bullets next season. They changed their name. The Bullets are being tortured this year. What's the matter with their Wizards next season?

...

The first day of the playoffs has passed. Except for the Pistons and Hawks who are equal in strength, the other three series have won big wins, and the strength gap is obvious. The media and fans are only concerned about these three series, how Jordan will ravage the Bullets and vent.

On the second game day, unexpected situations came.

In the first game, with Anfini Hardaway's 38 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, the Magic beat the Heat away 83-75, stealing the home advantage!

This series was regarded as a crushing game without any suspense, but the Magic team came up and gave people a surprise!

On the contrary, the first match between the Knicks and the Hornets, which had similar records, was easily defeated by the Hornets 92 to 75. The Hornets did not have a star with excellent offensive ability, and it became very obvious in the playoffs.

In fact, after the All-Star Weekend, the Hornets fell from fourth in the Eastern Conference to sixth in the Eastern Conference, which clearly demonstrated the defect of the Hornets' poor offensive ability. In the playoff level confrontation, especially in the playoff level confrontation these days, Glenn Rice was not so good in the playoff level.

Immediately afterwards, the Jazz also crushed the Clippers with a 36-winning 98-73, with nearly 30 wins, and the gap in strength was too big.

In the last game between the Trail Blazers and the Timberwolves, the game was quite exciting. Nash and Tianzun’s pick-and-roll combination vs. Marbury and Marbury and Garnett, Sabonis and Gugliotta’s matchup were also similar. Overall, the three-headed Wolves’ comprehensive strength is stronger than Nash, Rashid Wallace and Sabonis. The main reason is that Nash is too young, but the Trail Blazers’ lineup is better. Paul Allen’s investment has made the Trail Blazers spend money without any scruples.

Judging from the scene, this game was the best-playing game since the start of the playoffs, and it played back and forth. In the end, Nash's breakthrough made a step-by-step throw and avoided Garnett's backup hit. The Trail Blazers tied the score to 98-97. In the end, Garnett, a mid-range shot assigned to Garnett by Marbury, did not make a shot.

The Trail Blazers relied on Nash's quasi-final victory and defeated the Timberwolves by 1 point and won the first victory in the series.
