Commentator : What better place to be than the home
of the world champion Los Angeles Lakers as the
Lakers embark on a journey for their fourth
consecutive NBA title.
Man : We got our dynasties and the Lakers are a
dynasty reaching back to the time of George Mikan
and Elgin Baylor and Jerry West.
Colin : To come up against them, hey, that's, that's
something very, very special.
Even with Shaq sitting out with
an injury, Yao was expected to
self-destruct.
Commentators : Lakers look sharp as can be. They have
come dedicated and determined to get this done and
put it away early. The Rockets are just being
destroyed. It's embarrassing.
Colin : Yeah, Yao!
Crowds : Yao Ming.
Commentators : What's wrong with Houston? It's a big
puzzle. You can't leave him, Slava. Yao Ming with
the slam dunk.
Baseline 18-foot.
Ming with the offensive rebound. Ming's down inside.
Ming's got the lay-up.
Ming wants to turn
baseline and does.
Reverse lay-up
is good! And Yao Ming looking very solid so far
against the Los Angeles Lakers. As part of his game,
Yao Ming has got…
Colin : When everybody's criticizing you, I mean,
when Charles Barkley, a person that you look
up to… it's gotta, it's gotta give
you a little fire. I mean, that kind of competitive
spirit makes a great player. It was exciting. It was
so exciting to see him play like that.
Commentators : Houston's got it. They did not blow
that dead. Here comes Francis. Drop pass to Yao
Ming! The lay-up and the
foul! The big
fella running the floor.
Now the double-team.
To Hawkins. Hawkins to Yao. Yao! And
pucker up,
Charles! Pucker those lips! Big boy! Pucker it up!
Pucker up, Charles!
Charles : Number one, I've always said I hope the kid
plays well.
Man : Get out of here.
Kenny : Leave me alone. You said he, you said he
couldn't play. You said he sucked!
Charles : And you said he's the best player in
Houston. And it's starting to show. |
