NBA: There is nothing wrong with bringing a ball in a fight!

The Magic team is actually very strong this season. Whether it is O'Neal or Hardaway, their bodies have always remained healthy.

At the same time, the Magic also acquired Horace Grant through a trade, so their inside strength is very strong.

After the Lakers easily swept the Spurs, the Magic here also began to exert their strength. They won two games in a row, eliminated the Pacers 4-2 and went home, successfully meeting the Lakers in the finals.

For O'Neal, he has been waiting for this opportunity for many years.

When Ye Qingchen retired, he already thought about being able to show off his power in the league.

But the final result was that Danzi led the team to achieve three consecutive championships and suppressed him to death.

Now that Danzi has retired, Ye Qingchen has announced his comeback again, and actually led the team to the finals.

This result is actually difficult for O'Neal to accept.

O'Neal has been paying attention to Lakers games.

He originally thought that even if Ye Qingchen came back, his condition would not be much better, but he never thought that his condition would not be worse than before.

He even directly kicked the rising stars of the Lakers to the Spurs, allowing the Spurs to form a true Big Three.

It's just that although the Spurs formed the Big Three, they still can't bring any obstacles to the Lakers.

Now, he was finally going to meet Ye Qingchen in the finals. O'Neill knew that he had to concentrate on it and eliminate all distracting thoughts.

When being interviewed by reporters, O'Neal also replied calmly:

“I feel very lucky and excited to be in the finals!
We will go all out, the Lakers are a very good team with the ball, and we hope to beat them! "

There was no arrogance in O'Neal's answer, and he even maintained the utmost humility.

Because he really didn't want to anger Ye Qingchen before the game. This was not good news for the Magic team.

It's just that Ye Qingchen didn't care what O'Neal said. He even returned to Los Angeles and threw a party before the finals started.

The main purpose of Ye Qingchen's party was to celebrate his second appearance in the finals, and he invited celebrities from all over Los Angeles.

Of course, these include supermodels in the fashion industry and popular actresses in the entertainment industry.

Ye Qingchen already has a huge social circle in Los Angeles, and being invited by him represents an honor in itself.

So, the party lasted from early evening to early morning the next day.

As the protagonist of this party, Ye Qingchen did not take a break during the whole process and kept partying with the guests until dawn.

The guests who accompanied Ye Qingchen to party until dawn were either supermodels or celebrities.

Moreover, Ye Qingchen would pull them into the room from time to time for more in-depth communication.

The other guests were so envious when they saw Ye Qingchen being treated like this.

And they were all amazed by his amazing fighting power. Sometimes even several supermodels and stars would enter the room to communicate with Ye Qingchen.

As one of the invited guests, Xiao Lizi was even more amazed by Ye Qingchen's fighting power:

"This guy's life is the life I long for. I will also live a life surrounded by supermodels in the future. This is simply more enjoyable than God!"

At this time, Xiao Lizi had already made such a wish. He hoped to live such a happy life like Ye Qingchen.

If Ye Qingchen knew that it was because of himself that Xiao Li was obsessed with supermodels in the future, I believe he would also lament that things are impermanent!

After a night of partying, Ye Qingchen set off for Orlando with the team early the next morning.

Because on the next day, they will play the first finals.

Because the Magic have home court advantage, the first two games of the Finals will be played at the Magic's home court.

This is the biggest advantage for the Magic.They also hope to keep the victory in Orlando in these two home games.

As long as they can retain the home court advantage, there is a great chance that this championship will become theirs.

Magic head coach Chuck Daly was the leader of the "Bad Boys" back then, and now he has become the talker of the Magic.

For Chuck Daly, this finals is his best chance to prove his name.

Because in his opinion, Lakers head coach Mike Dunleavy is just an old guy who knows nothing.

If it weren't for having Ye Qingchen, how could he have enjoyed so many fruits of victory?
After three consecutive championships, Ye Qingchen chose to retire. The Lakers still did not kick Dunleavy out. Instead, they allowed the Lakers to fail for three years.

Now he has to wait for Ye Qingchen's comeback and launch an attack on the fourth championship.

This made Chuck Daly very unhappy. He didn't think Dunleavy really had the strength to lead the team to win the championship.

So he must beat the Lakers to win the championship.

He wants fans across the United States to see that he has the strength to defeat the Lakers.

In the 1998-1999 season, the first game of the NBA Finals officially begins!
Los Angeles Lakers VS Orlando Magic!

The Lakers' starting lineup has changed, with Olajuwon and Ewing both missing due to injuries.

This makes the Lakers seem much weaker on paper.

This is the Magic's chance!
For the Magic, the starting lineup is:
Shaquille O'Neal, Anfernee Hardaway, Horace Grant, Darrell Armstrong, Isaiah Augustin.

As soon as the game started, the Magic took advantage of the Lakers' weakness inside and began to attack the Lakers' inside like crazy.

O'Neal, in particular, kept asking for the ball and attacking the basket, causing frequent fouls on the Lakers' inside line, and then sending O'Neal to the free throw line.

O'Neal's free throw shooting has improved a lot after several seasons of practice, and his current free throw shooting rate has remained at around [-]%.

Ye Qingchen was also shocked by O'Neal's shooting percentage, because before he traveled through time, this guy's free throw shooting percentage was less than [-]%.

This shows that this guy really doesn't care about free throws, which is his only shortcoming.

But now his free throw shooting percentage has been greatly improved. What does this mean?
It shows that this guy’s obsession with the championship is really deep in his bones!
It seems that his arrival has played a great role in spurring O'Neal!

Ye Qingchen thought with emotion.

The Magic resolutely attacked the inside, while Ye Qingchen's Lakers kept firing from the outside.

Especially Ye Qingchen, when he encountered a double-team from the Magic, he decisively chose to hand the ball to Keith Owens.

As for himself, he started running without the ball!

Ye Qingchen, who just caught the ball and shot, also caused huge trouble for the Magic team. They couldn't guard Ye Qingchen at all.

The Lakers couldn't guard O'Neal, and the Magic couldn't guard Ye Qingchen, and the two sides started an offensive battle.

The score has always been alternating in the lead, which made the fans watching this game excited.

As for the Magic fans at the scene, they felt very anxious about this. They really hoped that the home team would widen the point difference instead of being entangled by the Lakers.

At the end of the first half, the score became 65:68!

The Lakers still lead by 3 points!
Ye Qingchen's halftime statistics were equally shocking:
40分12篮板12助攻5抢断5封盖！

From the perspective of the Magic's home fans, Ye Qingchen is really omnipotent on the court and can do whatever he wants!

Danzi, who has retired, is also paying attention to this game:

"Damn, why is this guy still so strong?" (End of Chapter)
