Add One, I Don’t Know How To Fight
Chapter 260 259: Lakers and Pistons go mountain climbing (please vote!)
Nowitzki easily threw the ball over Robert Horry, and the Lakers had no way to deal with the German.
Before the playoffs began, no one thought the Mavericks and Nowitzki were a threat. Although the Mavericks also won 60 games this season, just like the Pistons, no one believes in a team without superstars.
You know, Nash is not the respected MVP at this time.
Dirk also still bears the reputation of being a "softie".
And Mike Finley has a failed successor to Jordan.
No one thought these guys could lead the Mavericks to the end.
But now, at this moment, I believe all Lakers fans will feel scared when they see Nowitzki.
Robert Horry couldn't stand it when he saw the basketball hollowly entering the net.
At this moment, he couldn't help but want to ask God: Why is the No. 4 position I encounter so strong in every round of the game!
In the first round, I faced a tough guy, in the second round, I faced Duncan, and now in the third round, it's Dirk.
Can you change a batch?
Brother, I am really not lucky enough to enjoy these personal beauties!
Horry really felt like he was about to cry. In the three rounds of the playoffs, he played all the top four positions in the league.
And if the Lakers reach the finals next, he will meet Li Ang.
What a crime!
Horry was still thinking about life, and the Lakers had already sent the baseline ball.
Kobe waved his hand and led his brothers to attack again.
At this time, the game had entered the fourth quarter. After Nowitzki scored, the Lakers were still 6 points behind.
The total score of the series is 3 to 2, with the Lakers leading.
When the Mavericks reached the Western Conference semifinals, many people said that if Webber hadn't been injured, the Mavericks would never have reached the Western Conference finals.
But it turns out that this statement is wrong.
Because the Mavericks' offensive firepower is even better than that of the OK Lakers.
It was discovered that the Mavericks were not inferior at all compared to the Lakers.
In the first game, the Mavericks gave the Lakers a showdown at Staples, their home court.
In that game, the Mavericks made 39 of 40 free throws. The stability of this free throw was as good as the scoring machine Ben.
One is so stable that he can make free throws, and the other is so stable that he can't make any free throws.
The last game was still at Staples. The Lakers and Mavericks fought hard for an overtime before finally holding the victory in the battle of Tianwang Mountain in their hands.
Nowitzki has played five games, averaging nearly 30 points per game. Robert Horry's defense is almost like an early morning bus to Dirk - just get on.
This is normal. Although the current Dirk is not complete, in the original history, when he faced Deng Shu in the 2003 playoffs, he averaged 25+11 per game.
What level is Deng Shu? That is the number one striker in history.
Dirk can score 25+11 on Duncan's head, so if he scores 30+ on Horry's head, that's just a matter of time.
The Lakers played very hard in this round of the series, much harder than the Pistons playing the Nets.
Li Ang said this was all a misunderstanding, and it would actually be difficult for us to beat the Nets.
You can try building ten risks in one game and see if you feel tired.
Don't stand and talk, don't feel pain!
The G6 of this series at the American Airlines Center will determine the trend of this series.
If the Lakers win, they will advance directly.
If Dirk wins and drags the game into a tiebreaker, the Lakers' dynasty may be buried here.
After Kobe went up, he faced Finley and held the ball outside the three-point line.
At this time, Fisher had already used Horry's off-ball screen and ran towards the right corner.
Nash tried very hard to follow Fisher, but Horry's screen made Nash unable to do anything and was blocked.
Horry is actually not that kind of muscular fourth position, but as long as you are a handler, you can block Nash.
As soon as Fisher was in position, Kobe made a strong shot against Finley!
Damn you, you really don’t think Kobe will pass the ball to an open teammate, do you? No way, right?
Besides, what's wrong with this guy defending a wide open shot?
Seeing Kobe forcefully take a shot, Fisher felt no emotion at all.
As a role player for the Lakers, you have to be prepared to run around for a long time but not catch the ball in the end.
Fisher had no emotions in his heart, but O'Neal cursed secretly in his heart, and then pushed away Mavericks center LaFrentz to grab the offensive rebound.
The moment Shaq got the ball, the entire Mavericks team shrank.
O'Neal only felt that someone was pulling on his arm, someone was pulling on his back, and someone was pulling on his shark fart.
"It's not allowed there, damn it!"
O'Neal was speechless. How could I be so petite, thin, and harmless?
You can tell at a glance that I'm cute.
Do you need so many people to guard against me?
In desperation, O'Neal could only pass the ball to the first Fisher he saw in the hands of a bunch of salty pigs.
After Xiaoyu got the basketball, Nash quickly blocked it.
But Fisher acted as if Nash didn't exist and just took the ball and charged forward.
I want to see what you, the long-haired one, are capable of!
Fisher's body is very strong for the No. 1 position, even compared with forward players.
If he is physically inferior to a striker, can he pry away Barnes' wife?
Nash was mercilessly knocked away by Fisher like a woman.
Cuban was really convinced when he saw this scene. Nash's defense was completely useless in the playoffs.
After Fisher easily broke through Nash, he threw a shot from the mid-range position.
The basketball was hit steadily, and the Lakers were only 4 points behind!
"Steve Nash has allowed Fisher to score 16 points today. In this series with the Mavericks, Fisher has increased from averaging 10 points per game to nearly 15 points per game.
Steve's defense is very problematic, and his presence makes the Mavericks' already poor defense even worse. "
Cuban was already angry, and the on-site commentary kept adding fuel to the fire.
Nash really tried his best, he is not the kind of player who doesn't work hard.
But the Mavericks' system cannot cover up Nash's defensive ability.
One round later, Nowitzki's shot bounced out under the attack of Devin George and Horry, and the Lakers once again got a chance to close the score.
Kobe didn't fight alone this time, not because he was too determined just now so he didn't dare, but because he didn't even bother to bully Finley one-on-one.
What does one-on-one mean? I'll shoot again when there's a three-person double team.
So, this time Kobe fed the ball to Shaq in the post.
Seeing this situation, Nowitzki hurriedly flanked O'Neal with LaFrentz, but O'Neal forced a layup under the defense of the two men!
To be honest, the way Nowitzki was crushed by O'Neal was not much more glamorous than Nash just now.
However, there was no dissatisfaction on Cuban's face. Instead, he complained to the referee.
"Is this an injurious move? Believe it or not, I will airlift a box of Lafite to you?"
Haha, men all have double standards.
When he likes someone, the stockings she wears for three days are still fragrant.
When he doesn't like someone, she breathes wrongly.
Nash seems to be the person whose breathing is wrong.
As soon as the OK connection came out, Mavericks fans were on tenterhooks.
Sure enough, in the last few minutes, Kobe and O'Neal took turns to use their strength to completely dismantle the Mavericks' already weak defense.
On the other hand, the Mavericks' offense at critical moments was a bit unstable.
As for the Mavericks, the Pistons have already experimented with it during the regular season.
Their offense has no structure and they attack whoever has the opportunity. Therefore, when it is really necessary to attack a difficult situation, it will be very chaotic.
In addition, the Mavericks are a shooting team, and it is possible to shoot extremely well.
The Mavericks were getting worse and worse, and the Lakers worked hard to lead by 6 points 36 seconds before the end of the game!
At this time, Nash received the sideline ball and then prepared to quickly score points in the limited time.
But just when Nash was about to break through, Horry bumped into him. Because Nash was too thin, he was knocked to the ground by Horry, and the ball was naturally taken away.
But the referee thought this was a normal confrontation, so no foul was called!
"Nash actually lost the basketball. The Lakers counterattacked. Devin George dunked after receiving the pass! It's over, it's over! The Lakers defeated the Dallas Cowboys. They will reach the Finals for the third consecutive year, creating a Their myth!”
Seeing Devin George's dunk, Nash, who was sitting on the ground, endured the severe pain in his back and sat up, spreading his hands at the referee: "That's a defensive foul!"
The referee's attitude was very tough: "If there is a foul, I will blow the whistle, okay? Just play your ball well, and I will blow my whistle!"
It must be admitted that league referees are indeed biased towards the Lakers.
But it must also be admitted that even without this foul, it would be difficult for the Mavericks to win.
Nowitzki and Nash are exhausted, and their shots can no longer guarantee a hit rate.
It is really difficult for the Mavericks to reverse course.
Nash climbed up in embarrassment, covering his back and grinning.
It's obviously just a little bit close, and the gap is obviously not very big.
but.
In the end, he could only watch the Lakers step over his body and continue moving forward.
The Lakers' goal completely shattered the confidence of the Mavericks players.
In the end, the 8-point difference was maintained until the end.
99 to 91, the Los Angeles Lakers won the sixth game of the series, eliminated the Mavericks with a total score of 4 to 2, and entered the finals for the third consecutive year!
The moment the game ended, Nash covered his face.
He blamed himself very much. If he hadn't conceded the ball at the last moment, the game might have been saved.
Cuban blushed with anger. Facts have proved that his idea of the International Legion was too naive.
Neither Wang Zhizhi nor Nash performed well in the playoffs.
Roughly in playoff-level games, the stability is very poor and the defense is basically useless.
Nash had the same problem in the playoffs, and as one of the core members of the team, his ability to attack tough problems was too average.
Facts have proved that this team still needs to add a few hard and dark players.
Cuban looked at Nash, who was limping off the court, and sighed.
It's not that you're not good enough, it's mainly that my requirements are a bit high.
The Mavericks players were all crestfallen, but the Lakers players were all excited.
They are just one step away from establishing the first three consecutive championship dynasty after Jordan!
As long as the Detroit Pistons are accepted, this team will go down in history!
By then, won’t Daole still score 70%?
Seeing the Mavericks being eliminated, Li Ang curled his lips.
There is no other way, everyone has to go through such a process.
If it weren't for these years of standing like me, Dirk wouldn't have had 11 years of amazing performances.
The Lakers are finally here.
Carolina felt that Li Ang's hand holding her seemed to be a little harder.
Is it because of the low-cut pajamas I wore today?
Disgusting~
Carolina didn't know something, but all Li Ang could see now was the sweaty No. 8 strong man.
He was not noticed at all in his low-cut pajamas.
The Lakers successfully advanced, which naturally made Los Angeles fans extremely excited.
In their view, the Pistons had no chance of winning at all. In their view, Texas' cattle and horses are already the biggest obstacle to the Lakers' championship.
Win the Western Conference Finals and get sent to the Finals.
Yes, the Pistons are indeed much better than the Nets.
In this case, if the Lakers can win 4-0 against the Nets, then they can at most win 4-1 against the Pistons.
It is not unacceptable to lose a game and win the championship.
Yes, Lakers fans are so arrogant.
The same goes for the media in Los Angeles.
When Li Ang attended a regular press conference the next afternoon, some Los Angeles media asked Li Ang: "What do you want to say about the upcoming series, which will be like David versus Gloria?"
Li Ang stared at the reporter with a disdainful smile.
Obviously, it can be seen from the reporter's surprised expression that he was surprised by Li Ang's reaction.
"What? I'm surprised I wasn't scared to tears on the spot? What about David versus Gloria? Don't give me these intellectual words.
We are not David, and the Lakers are not Gloria. I admit that the Lakers are very strong, and I also admit that the OK combination is the best duo in the league.
But we are evenly matched!
It's clear to me that the Lakers are desperate for a championship. But we are also thirsty and we want to drink some blood too! "
Li Ang's tough response shocked the Los Angeles fans at the scene.
No politeness, no humility or any sign of weakness.
Facing the Lakers, who swept the league for the third consecutive year, Li Ang did not show a trace of worry or nervousness.
He is confident!
"Whatever he says, we are going to Detroit to win the championship. We will never give up until we win three consecutive championships. We also welcome Leon to Los Angeles, but I don't think he will miss this journey."
When Kobe heard what Li Ang said from reporters, he was not surprised.
This is indeed Li Ang's style.
But a basketball game cannot be done just by talking.
Kobe is waiting for Li Ang to come over, if he can win three consecutive championships over Li Ang. Then, Li Ang will never be able to raise his head in front of him again.
Just like Jordan is to Malone.
The war of words between Li Ang and Kobe made the media madly hype this game.
The Los Angeles media ridiculed the Pistons in various ways and used this method to "welcome" a rural team like the Pistons.
There are even many Los Angeles fans who are ready to participate in the championship parade.
The game is just a formality. Anyway, the championship will belong to the Lakers sooner or later.
When Li Ang was watching TV at home in the evening, he saw on a local talk show in Los Angeles, the host even said: "Try to win the cup at the Lakers' home court!"
Because the current format of the Finals is still 2-3-2, the Lakers will play two games in Detroit first, and then play three consecutive games in Los Angeles.
Therefore, striving to win the cup at home means that the Lakers can at least win 4-1!
"Laughing so hard, do they really know what they are talking about?" Ben looked at the TV show and shook his head in disbelief.
Li Ang's heart was not disturbed at all. After all, this was not the most outrageous thing he had ever heard.
The most outrageous thing he has ever heard is that Chinese people cannot afford pickled mustard.
Besides, there's a reason why Los Angeles fans are so arrogant.
In the past two seasons, the Lakers have lost one game in the Finals combined.
They really crushed the Raptors and Nets.
After crushing opponents for two consecutive years, can Los Angeles fans not be confident?
Li Ang admitted that this series will be difficult to play.
But as long as the Pistons can withstand the pressure in the first few games, they will definitely play better and smoother in the next few games.
O'Neal has been plagued by a toe injury this season. Although he has had surgery, it has not recovered yet.
Moreover, the Lakers are having a very difficult time in the Western Conference this year.
They tried their best against the Spurs in the semifinals and the Mavericks in the conference finals.
No one knows how much strength this Lakers team still has.
But Li Ang estimated that there was not much oil left in their tank.
The further the series goes on, the more disadvantageous it will be for the Lakers.
The Pistons were different. Except for the slightly strenuous game against the Bulls, the other two rounds of the playoffs were very easy.
The Pistons have more physical reserves than the Lakers.
You have to know that the Lakers are still extremely dependent on Kobe and Shaq.
If we say, the Pistons are the five tigers sharing the pressure. So for the Lakers, Kobe and O'Neal are sharing the pressure.
Their consumption is extremely huge.
Therefore, Li Ang firmly believes that as long as he can withstand the pressure of three consecutive away games in Los Angeles.
Then returning to Detroit, the Lakers are equivalent to entering the gate of hell!
During the period before the start of the game, both teams were preparing nervously.
Kobe and Leon had never been so close, but they stopped sending text messages to harass each other.
They will not speak until one of them is brought down.
During this period, outside reporters were still teasing the Pistons endlessly, as if they were about to face a lottery team.
Finally, Game 1 of the 2003 NBA Finals begins at the Palace Arena in Auburn Hills!
Before the game started, as always, the Pistons players appeared on the stage wearing gold belts.
The Palace of Auburn Hills was packed, with fans filling every corner of the stands.
When he stepped onto the court again, Li Ang felt that he was actually a little panicked.
Once again, he saw the OK combination and those two scary guys on the stage of the finals.
Two years ago, the feeling of powerlessness when facing the Lakers still deeply hurt Li Ang's heart.
But soon, when his teammates gathered around him and nodded lightly at him, Li Ang felt that he was suddenly not afraid of anything.
This time, I can definitely win!
Amid the fierce shouts of the Detroit fans, the Pistons took full advantage in G1 of the Finals.
Iron-blooded defense, team offense, and the spirit of never giving up.
Before, people were laughing at the Magic, Bulls and Nets, how could they only score so many points in one game.
But today, when the Lakers also fell into a scoring drought at the Palace of Auburn Hills, they all understood.
It's not that the Magic, Bulls and Nets are too weak, it's that the Pistons' defense is really bad.
Carlisle's strategy was to use Hamilton to keep an eye on Kobe throughout the entire game, and once Kobe had the ball, he would set up an iron barrel formation to flank him at any time.
As for Fisher, George and Horry on the three-point line, let them go if you can.
Let them vote.
The Lakers rely on the explosive ability of the OK combination, so Carlisle would rather let role players shoot than let OK take advantage.
Don't tell me, the role players of the Lakers really show respect.
Let me go, right?
I'll show you!
Fisher made 1 of 9 in the game, Horry made 2 of 9, and Devin George made 3 of 9.
The Zen master is so confused, you three have a flush!
Kobe and O'Neal carried the whole game, Shaq scored 34 points and Kobe scored 25 points.
Shaq's performance was indeed invincible. He scored 34 points on 13 of 16 shots from the field. He tortured Ben, the best defensive player, to the point where he couldn't take care of himself.
But Kobe was not so lucky. Although he scored 25 points, he only made 10 of 27 shots in the game, with a shooting percentage of only 37%.
In terms of efficiency, Shaq directly blew it away.
This is actually related to the Pistons' defensive strategy. The Pistons' strategy is mainly to flank Kobe.
Today, as long as Kobe touches the ball, he will face the defense of at least two people.
The Pistons, who directly emptied their role players, did not give him a chance to fight one-on-one.
Not to mention holding the ball, even when moving around without the ball, Kobe would occasionally get double-teamed.
Carlisle thought that it was unrealistic for this OK group to hold them all down, they were really too strong.
Instead of spreading rain and dew equally, it is better to concentrate on dealing with one person.
Against whom? Carlisle decided to tackle Kobe.
First of all, O'Neal is right at the basket because of his attack range. So even if you are double-teamed, you may not be able to hold them. After all, Li Ang and Da Ben are so tall.
Secondly, Kobe is not the kind of person who likes to distribute the ball. If you double-team him, he may not pass the ball to his teammates.
Therefore, double-teaming Kobe is simply the perfect choice.
As long as they can hold down one of the OK players, the Lakers are like a man missing one leg, the middle one.
If the Lakers fail to catch this leg, they will be dead!
All of Carlisle's strategies were executed with great success by the Pistons generals today.
In addition to defense, the Pistons also played very well offensively today.
Leon scored 22 points, Billups had 17 points and Hamilton had 15 points.
Very average and not bad at efficiency.
Although during the game, because I was addicted to people, I couldn't help but want to show off on the offensive end, but because I didn't have any skills, I had to choose to eat hard and was blocked by Shaq.
Director Zhang couldn't understand his operation, but it was very shocking. How courageous it is for someone so short to challenge O'Neal.
But even with someone like me holding the team back, the Pistons' offense today was considered excellent.
With excellent execution of tactics on both offense and defense, the Pistons defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 85-75 at home, with a 10-point difference, and got off to a good start in the Finals!
At that moment, the cheers in the Palace of Auburn Hills Stadium made Li Ang's ears ring.
Before the game, everyone was mocking the Pistons as a "country team", and no one even looked at the Pistons.
Everyone thinks that the Lakers are still the same Lakers that they once were.
But this time, the Pistons told fans and media across Los Angeles: "We are different!"
The Pistons not only won, they won by a full 10 points!
Los Angeles fans are planning the championship parade and the championship award ceremony.
Everyone has a plan in mind until they get punched in the face!
"The Pistons didn't even let the Lakers score more than 80 points! Let me tell you, they already have the strength to compete for the championship!"
Barkley danced with excitement, the Pistons defeated the Lakers, this is just like a poor boy counterattacking the rich second generation, thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river, don't bully the poor boy!
What’s even better is that it’s all true!
Are you all still looking sad? You are all crazy!
Well, for those who like the Pistons, this is indeed a cool script.
But for the Lakers, who have a large number of fans, this is a heavy blow.
After the game, O'Neal complained about Kobe Bryant again in an interview after many days: "Devin George passed me some good balls today. I was really surprised how he passed the ball to me. Hand. Some guys who played with me for five or six years couldn't throw the ball to me, and he threw it to me six or seven times a night."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he knew it was the old Onmyoji.
Needless to say, everyone knows who the "someone" Shaq refers to is.
It's like shouting lsp, even if you don't mention your name, everyone knows you are talking about yourself.
O'Neal and Kobe, together are the Pistons, and apart they are the Pistons.
O'Neal was really angry, and Kobe was so stunned today.
You are so stubborn, but you don’t know how to pass it on.
You keep saying that we want to defeat the Pistons together, is this your attitude?
Everyone knows Kobe's character.
Playing against Li Ang in the finals, he must have racked his brains to beat Li Ang, and he couldn't care less about passing the ball.
Little did he know that this thunder was hidden, but if Li Ang didn't explode, Kobe himself did.
Therefore, Kobe did not argue with Shaq this time.
Because he knew very well in his heart that he was the one who did something wrong.
Li Ang was naturally very happy to win the first game with a 10-point difference.
But this joy did not last long, because in the second game, the powerful Lakers immediately pulled one back!
In the second game of the series, the OK combination continued to shine, scoring an exaggerated 62 points together to help the Lakers regain their face!
Today OK not only scored high, but also had a high shooting percentage.
Kobe made 14 of 27 shots and scored 33 points with a 51.9% shooting rate.
O'Neal scored 29 points on 10 of 20 shots.
There is nothing to say about this game. There is still no problem with the Pistons' strategy. The team's double-teaming of Kobe and Ben's close defense of O'Neal were still done to the extreme.
But no matter how strong you are, O'Neal still has the ability to score on your head.
Moreover, Shaq was really anxious today.
In the fifth minute of the third quarter, the Lakers were still 2 points behind.
O'Pang received the basketball in the low post without hesitation and chose to directly attack the frame with his back.
Seeing that the base behind him was extremely strong, Shaq turned his elbow and opened the base very violently, and then took two steps and violently dunked.
Scenes like this forced defense occurred more than once in this game.
Kobe also played to the level of Jordan's successor.
Many of his shots were made due to interference, and often more than one person even interfered with him.
But he can get in!
Who do you go to to reason with?
The Pistons beat everything Carlisle arranged, but they still failed to withstand the OK duo, the strongest combination in the 21st century.
The Lakers' ability to win two consecutive championships in the first two seasons did not rely on luck.
Moreover, Li Ang has analyzed before that the current Lakers are stronger than the Lakers in the same period in the original history.
They had stepped on the Spurs after all.
For the Pistons, Li Ang scored 27 points in a single game, second only to OK.
Made Robert Horry cry again.
Horry really felt that enough was enough. In this year's playoffs, he seemed to be providing one-stop service.
Beaten from start to finish.
And today is particularly different. Horry was "beaten" and cried today, which has two meanings.
Li Ang's was very big and hard, and it was more painful than the first three.
Horry decided that next time he would find a team with a strong No. 4 position.
Otherwise, I really can’t stand it.
Originally, he just wanted to quietly win a few championships, but he ended up being beaten severely.
Who can bear this?
In addition to Li Ang, Billups still performed well today, scoring 21 points.
Li Ang directly suspected that Flounder, who was more determined than Kidd in the previous Eastern Conference Finals, was just saving up his character and waiting for the finals to win FMVP.
Of course, it's actually because after adapting to Kidd's defense, I always feel that the old fish is relaxed when I play against him.
It made Billups feel nothing at all.
Although the old fish is also very big, the confrontation is also very fierce.
But some things are loose when they are loose, and they have nothing to do with your body shape.
The Pistons' offense today can be considered very good, but the same sentence remains.
If you let the OK combination perform, there will only be a dead end.
The total score was 1-1, and the Lakers fans, who had been left speechless before, began to feel like celebrating the New Year again.
They all said that the Lakers lost the first game on purpose.
The purpose is to win the trophy at Staples.
Next, the Lakers will play three consecutive home games, and it is impossible for the Pistons to return to Detroit alive!
Kobe also said the same thing when he arrived at the Los Angeles Airport for an interview: "We will never go back to Detroit, and we will not let them go back alive!"
The Los Angeles reporters, who didn't mind the matter, quickly relayed this sentence to Li Ang, wanting to see Li Ang's fearful expression.
Brother Snake has already said something, are you panicking now?
late!
However, Li Ang's response left the Los Angeles media speechless: "We won't walk when we go back, we will take a plane."
After saying that, he pointed at the plane and then spread his hands wordlessly.
It's a good thing that the Internet is not developed now, otherwise Li Ang would have become a big internet celebrity in the Mi Li family with this silent gesture of spreading his hands.
The Los Angeles reporters looked at each other awkwardly, then laughed deliberately.
He's scared, Li Ang is scared!
He was using what he thought was humor to cover up the fact that he was afraid.
He was scared hahahaha!
Li Ang didn't know whether he was afraid, but Huo Li was really afraid.
How he hoped that before the start of G3 of the series, Zen Master would suddenly change his formation.
Since he was beaten so hard by Li Ang in the first two games that he didn't recognize the horse, Horry felt that it was not impossible.
This is the finals after all, and the fewer shortcomings the team has, the better. In order to cover up this shortcoming of his own, it is reasonable for a Zen master to change his formation.
Before the start of G3 of the series, when Jackson announced the starting lineup, he deliberately walked up and patted Horry on the shoulder: "Congratulations!"
Horry laughed at that time, this is a dream come true!
You shouldn't let me start, you should let me sit on the bench, and then replace me at the critical moment to shoot the winning shot.
That's what I love to do.
As a result, the Zen master said leisurely: "Congratulations, you are starting again today! Hey, why are you still crying? Don't cry, don't thank the coach. The coach trusts you, you just need to show your performance to repay my trust." That’s it. Don’t be moved and play well!”
Laughing to death, the Zen master wanted to change someone, but he would have changed him if he could.
But he can't be replaced.
In addition to Horry, the Lakers' fourth position only has Ukrainian Medvedenko who is 2.08 meters tall.
This European big man is as soft as a ball, not even as good as Horry.
Horry could at least knock Nash away.
Horry: I don’t dare to move at all!
Series G3, the first game in Los Angeles.
When Li Ang entered the stadium today, he saw many characters on the sidelines who could only be seen on TV when he was a child.
For example, Jack Nicholson, the original clown in the childhood Batman movies.
Another example is the Terminator robot who doesn't wear clothes every time he appears.
Of course, there is also the long-haired muscular man with facial paralysis for thousands of years.
This is probably why Los Angeles is so desirable, it is a big show place.
They gathered here today just to enjoy a wonderful night and see how the Lakers beat the Pistons into scum.
As a result, O'Neal and Kobe did not break out today, but Li Ang played the best performance of the series.
Under Horry's timid defense, Li Ang combined with sudden shots and scored 26 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
Billups also continued his FMVP-level performance today, scoring 23 points and 6 assists.
It’s true, this guy was trying to save his character by competing with Kidd before!
Masked man Hamilton also scored 17 points efficiently because he could focus more on the offensive end today.
In the first two games, Carlisle used Hamilton to defend Kobe.
Although the Pistons' strategy was to double-team Kobe, no matter how much they were double-teamed, there had to be someone who could always follow and defend Kobe.
This person is Hamilton.
But because Kobe's performance in the last game was quite explosive, Carlisle went directly to Prince to harass Kobe today!
The effect was remarkable. Kobe immediately went from being quite explosive to being mediocre today.
He took 25 shots in the game, but only hit 8 goals, turning Shaq's 36+20 super double-double into nothing.
Even Big Ben can't defend O'Neal, and it's Kobe's fault!
Fortunately, the Lakers' role players came to life today, and they really scored when given the opportunity.
This allowed the Lakers to lose only 5 points in the end.
Otherwise, with Kobe's shooting percentage today, the Lakers could lose by 15 points, let alone 5 points.
The Pistons defeated the Lakers with their own hands in front of the Los Angeles people, with a total score of 2 to 1 in the series!
After the game, Li Ang deliberately waved to the fans in the stands: "It seems that the Lakers will not be able to win their third consecutive championship trophy at the Staples Center. I am very sorry about this. Sorry." You bastards!"
Seeing everyone in the arena cursing him, Li Ang not only wasn't angry, he was even a little happy.
Carolina understood, it turned out Angang liked this.
Although it’s a bit shameful, I’m going to buy a small whip right now!
The Pistons led the Lakers 2-1, and all of Los Angeles exploded.
They couldn't accept the fact that the Lakers actually lost two games in the Finals.
O'Neal also continued to be weird. Kobe's performance in the finals was far from what he imagined.
Just when Li Ang thought he could pursue the victory and win the match point, the Pistons were slaughtered in G4 of the series.
In this game, the OK duo and the Lakers' role players were in excellent condition.
Role players can score when they are open, and OK combinations can also score when they are on defense.
Just two flowers!
Facing the Lakers' overwhelming offensive firepower, the Pistons lost this game by 13 points.
The Lakers tied the series score at 2-2.
The finals were dragged into the Battle of Tianwangshan!
"Giant Gloria just took a nap, and now, they finally wake up! And when they wake up, the Pistons will have no chance!"
After the game, Kenny Smith commented like this.
At the end of the game, Li Ang was sweating profusely.
The current Lakers are really annoying.
They have a lot of flaws and don't look that strong.
But every time you think you can win, they show terrifying strength.
"Damn it, I got evened again."
Daben also panted and walked to Li Ang, putting his hands on his knees.
This is probably the most oppressive series the Pistons have ever played.
Although they beat the Bulls 4-2, the Bulls never caught up with the Pistons from beginning to end.
The Pistons were 2-0 at the beginning and 3-1 later. From start to finish, the Pistons were in the lead.
But the Lakers are different. They have been clinging to the score and not giving the Pistons a chance to breathe.
Every time you think you're going to win, the Lakers explode and shatter your illusion.
This is the fourth game, and Li Ang has not waited for the Lakers' physical problems as expected.
I must admit, OK is still strong!
If anyone else had encountered the Pistons' defense, it would have collapsed a long time ago.
But Kobe and O'Neal, despite their conflicts, not only were they not crushed, but they became more and more adaptable.
Birds eat cows and beep.
At this time, Kobe also stopped celebrating and looked at Li Ang.
Li Ang and Kobe looked at each other, and Kobe laughed, then patted his shoulder and made a pretending gesture of slapping ashes.
Do you think a skinny guy can defeat me? I'm not a tennis player!
"Damn, it's so annoying!" Li Ang cursed loudly. Speaking of which, the next game will be the Battle of Tianwang Mountain at Staples.
Suddenly, the situation became dangerous.
This is the first time in Li Ang's career that he has experienced Tianwang Mountain in the finals.
If you lose
Li Ang didn't continue thinking, he didn't want to lose.
Carlisle also touched his chin, trying to win three consecutive championships. The strength of the team is really extraordinary.
Today, after holding on for three games, the Pistons' defense was completely destroyed in the fourth game. Both the Lakers role players and OK broke through the shackles.
The strategy of letting role players form OK combinations is no longer applicable. If we continue to fight so persistently, there will be only death.
But OK's offensive firepower is too fierce, and it is impossible to win by attacking.
You still have to fight defensively!
Carlisle already had a new defensive strategy in mind.
It’s just that this strategy requires you to pay more!
Looking at the Pistons players who were already tired after four bloody games, Carlisle sighed.
I have no choice but to grit my teeth and persevere.
Without sacrifice, where would victory come from?
At this point in the series, it’s really about who wants to win more.
The next game at Tianwang Mountain cannot be lost again.
Since we went up the mountain, one of us would definitely die.
