BAB 38

After the match, it was not the reporter who found Michael Udin first, but the Lakers' fan, Jack Nicholson.

"You look great, Odin!

I love you so much young man! "

Jack Nicholson shook hands with Michael Udin and patted him on the back.

"If other fans can be as enthusiastic as you, I'll do even better!"

Michael Udin knew that he and Jack Nicholson had a tendency to become acquaintances.

Cuddling with Jack Nicholson, Michael Udin is arrested by a female Los Angeles Times reporter.

"Congratulations to you Odin, you played a reversal role in the game again. Today's Lakers counterattack begins with your sky hooks!

I heard that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar gave you special training yesterday. How do you use such high-level skills in a game in such a short time? "

The female reporter looked at Michael Udin with a smile on her face.

"Master Jabbar is a magical person. He simulated all situations for me. I just kept his teachings in mind, and I finished the hook naturally."

Michael Udin's answer caused Jabbar in front of the TV to nod repeatedly.

Kobe has taken the lead to return to the dressing room, and by now he's got the technical stats out of the game.

"Odin, you were really great today!

9 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 block, so versatile, 8 assists is so cool!

Your two assists in the third quarter turned things around right away! "

Kobe and Michael Udin clenched their fists and said excitedly.

"It's all because of my team-mates, I have a lot of assists!

You can do it today too, and you score a lot of points in the second half! "

After winning the match, Michael Udin always smiled.

"Come on, guys, if I can do better in the first half, we won't be so passive. We're flying to Houston tomorrow afternoon. Shall we train together in the morning?"

Coach Delmar Harris did not arrange for training on November 7 as the Los Angeles Lakers will fly to Houston on November 8 to face the Houston Rockets.

The twin towers formed by Judges Olajuwon and Charles Barkley have allowed the Houston Rockets to win back-to-back games. They have not lost a single record in their previous six matches. After a fierce battle with the Atlanta Hawks, the big few need a rejuvenation process.

Under such circumstances, Michael Udin would usually make an appointment with Kobe to train together.

"This is necessary, but I may be late. I may have to get a haircut tomorrow morning."

"Brother, why don't you listen to me?

You see how handsome my hairstyle is!"

Kobe had already asked him how to get an exploding head.

"Come on! If you want to cut off a bald head like Michael Jordan, you must score 30 points in every game from now on.

Michael Udin really feels that the drag coefficient of Kobe's afro head is too large, and it will indeed affect the breakthrough speed and bounce height.

Today, facing the team in the Atlanta Hawks, Michael Udin was very tired, after taking a shower, he returned to the apartment and fell asleep.

At the Lakers training hall The two worked hard until noon, and then they bought a pizza for the Team Boss and boarded the plane.

The large pizza that Kobe bought seemed to have shrunk in Big Shark's hands. Mr. Big shark eats three at a time. After all, the movement of people is here, and it makes sense to eat more. .

But in tomorrow's opponent, there's one who can eat more than Shaquille O'Neal, namely Charles Barkley, the flying pigeon!

Shaquille O'Neal and Hakeem Olajuwon's complaints were clear to everyone. Everyone wants to look good in such complaints. After all, there wasn't much of a chance to give face to the team boss. Anyone who feels comfortable on the team should take advantage of this opportunity.

The Houston Rockets, who have been through a big offseason trade, are in full swing. Charles Barkley, who wants to win the championship, has also worked very hard this season. It will be difficult to snatch victory in Houston.

Upon arrival in Houston, the team checked into the hotel to rest. The next morning, Coach Delmar Harris hosted a training tube arranged by the Rockets.

"Tonight's game is very important for us. The Houston Rockets are likely to be our immediate playoff opponent.

The Rockets lineup has changed a lot. Their inner strength is currently one of the strongest in the league. This will create great difficulties for us. Our attack and defense are sure to come under tremendous pressure. Please do that. Prepare mentally.

To win the game, we have to be defense based. They also have Drexler who can score more than 20 points. A troika team like this is a test of our defensive integrity.

At night, no matter how we face it, we must defend ourselves. The players on the field try not to flinch. Three Rockets core has good passing ability. Once we let them play a beautiful match, we will be very passive.

The Rockets have three All-Star players, and we have to ensure defensive pressure on all three. Shaq, each of us believe in your abilities, and you will be better than Olajuwon.

Elden, you have to pay attention to Barkley's three-pointer. He has made many key mid-range shots in the previous six games.

As for Drexler, leave it to Kobe. Kobe will replace Cedric as a starter today. Remember that your most important task today is to defend Drexler. "

Kobe nodded hard at the coach

Delmar Harris has this to say, Cedric Ceballos showing a very displeased display, being pushed to the bench by a seventeen year old rookie, this is something the former dunk king cannot accept.

However, acceptance or not is not a matter of the coaching staff, the rise and fall of Cedric Ceballos is the biggest reason why he was eliminated from the starting lineup.

Delmar Harris isn't going to stop his speech just because Cedric Ceballos is upset.

"As for the two other outfielders the Rockets sent, I don't care who they were. The arrival of Charles Barkley made these two positions the Rockets' biggest weakness.

Nick, Eddie, you two have to play a more important role at the end of the offensive. You must not only seize opportunities, but also create opportunities. Your performance will immediately determine the direction of tonight's game.

Odin, if Shaq and Elden get into trouble, you will get more playing time and you have to be mentally prepared.

This initial lineup is a new endeavor. Shaq will play low when he feels good. Eldendo will elect and overthrow Nick and Eddie. Kobe, you will consume Drex by running without the ball. Le's physical strength.

Nick, I hope you get to see more of Kobe when you have the ball. If Kobe without the ball can cause problems for Drexler, it will be a huge advantage for us.

That's all I wanted to say, do you have any questions? "

Delmar Harris almost covered all the important points, of course everyone will have no problems.

With the appearance of Michael Udin, not only did Kobe play at a higher level rookie season, he also experienced the prime position early.

As team leader, Sharks O'Neal had something to say before such an important game.

"Brothers I know anyone who mentions Hakim Olajuwon will mention he is the best center in the league sweeping Shaq in the final!

Actually, I'm not taboo about this. Being able to beat big dreams and win the championship is the only reason I came here. We have to beat our opponents in tonight's game. We need to build trust to win the championship in that way. game!

The Rockets with six wins in a row are very strong indeed, so we have to do better, I'm going to destroy the inside of Houston!

We will be able to win the victory today! "

Shark O'Neal's speech was infectious, and the Lakers players were already excited.

Everyone's subjective initiative has been mobilized, and everyone in the morning training session is in great shape.
