Chapter 485: The Inconceivable Final Scene (Combined)_4

Spectators always can come up with seemingly effective tricks, but Jackson wouldn't let James play the power forward position anymore.

Because the first half had proven that James was not mentally prepared, and his skill set did not support him playing inside.

The only thing the Lakers could do was to replace Pau Gasol with Bynum.

This decision, which worried Jackson, ended up turning the game around in the fourth quarter.

When Bynum came on, his face flickered with the most negative expressions ever seen: anger, frustration, confusion, disbelief, hostility.

He couldn't understand why he was only given a few minutes of playtime in a game that might have been watched by over twenty million viewers.

This anger transformed into his driving force.

Bynum was the type of player driven by anger, recalling how he had responded to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the greatest center after being knocked down by Shaquille O'Neal in just a few seconds.
