Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

On May 11th, the conference finals G4 will start in full swing. There will be two focus matchups tonight, namely the Lakers and Rockets in the West, and the Celtics and Knicks in the East.

The four teams had previously fought with a big score of 2-1. It can be said that the outcome of this game can be regarded as the weather vane of the series.

These two groups of matchups also played impressive games before, and the stars were full of quality. However, it was a pity that Yao's absence from the game due to injury made the matchup next door somewhat eclipsed. Many people believed that the Rockets, who had lost their offensive and defensive core for the entire season, had already lost.

Unable to stop the angry Lakers, they focused more on the first game between the Celtics and the Knicks.

It's too early to say this.

At least now, the Lakers are not angry enough. Instead, they are slacking off because of Yao's injury. Obviously, this series will not end so soon.

But there was nothing wrong with what they did, because tonight, something unusual was bound to happen.

Before the game, the outside world conducted a detailed analysis of both sides.

"The Knicks have suffered two consecutive defeats. Charles, how do you think they will adjust this time?" Kenny Smith glanced at Barkley beside him. Before the series, Barkley was one of the Knicks' biggest supporters.

, he even supported the Knicks to end the battle in 6 games, but now, Kenny Smith will see what else Barkley can say.

"There is no doubt that the overall situation, they need to make those damn shots, otherwise all tactics will be in vain." Barkley said angrily, obviously very dissatisfied with the performance of the Knicks' role players.

"Don't you think Zuo Li should stand up? I mean, he needs to take on more responsibilities," Smith said.

"Ha." Barkley snorted: "Look at Zuo Li's statistics. Isn't his performance good enough? Looking at the statistics alone, he is even the best of the two teams. He has triple-doubles, points, and averages per game.

5 blocks, who was the last person to average 5 blocks per game in the playoffs? Chamberlain? Or Russell? In short, he is not an unknown person."

"For a first-year rookie to perform like this, is there anything wrong with him? He even hit a double-teamed ball by three people in the last game, which is already very impressive," Barkley said.

"Well, you're right." Kenny also admitted that what Barkley said was correct, and that using data to criticize Zuo Li was really pointless: "It depends on the Knicks' state tonight. If it's still like that on the field, then they won't

win."

At this time, in an unknown corner near the player tunnel, Zuo Li, who had high hopes from the outside world, answered a call from the far west coast. On the phone, it was Dayao who was diagnosed with a stress fracture and was unable to play in G4 for the season.

"I'm so envious that you can still play on the court. Don't give up. Fight, you haven't lost the game yet." After some greetings, Dayao explained his purpose. He was here to cheer Zuo Li on.

He naturally expected the Rockets to create miracles, but Zuo Li also didn't want to lose so quickly.

Heroes cherish heroes. In Dayao's view, Zuo Li is like a lone hero like himself, fighting against the Celtics' terrifying lineup on his own. Dayao, who is also a yellow race, obviously does not want Zuo Li to be dismissed like this.

disuse.

Zuo Li did not answer directly, but instead asked: "Does the hospital where you live have a TV?"

"Yes, what's wrong? The doctor didn't let me see it, but your sister-in-law looked at me and said that my mood should not fluctuate too much before the operation. I was wondering what the relationship between the fracture and watching TV was." Dayao continued, and the more he spoke,

The quieter the voice was, the more one saw that Ye Li was on the side.

"Really, that's a pity. I think you should turn on the TV, because you will see the gods descending to earth!" Zuo Li's serious voice came.

"Hahahaha, you kid, you were so humorous before the competition. It doesn't seem to have any impact, so I'm relieved." Dayao laughed loudly, obviously not taking Zuo Li's so-called 'gods descending to earth' seriously.

"I won't tell you anymore, just fight hard, that's all."

After hanging up the phone, Dayao lay on the bed, still thinking about it, and interrupted with the doctors and nurses around him, talking about Zuo Li's humorous language, his talent, etc.

But the more I thought about it, the more wrong I became.

Although Zuo Li is humorous, he never lies about basketball. When it comes to his love for basketball, Zuo Li is even more exaggerated than him.

Then this god comes down to earth...

"Quick, quick, quick! Turn on the TV!" Dayao shouted.

When he finally saw the TV, the game had already started for 2 and a half minutes.

Dayao breathed a sigh of relief, he probably didn't miss anything exciting.

However, taking a closer look, the score is 10-1!

Knicks 10!

"Holy shit! What happened in these two and a half minutes!" Dayao was shocked.

And what happened in these two minutes?

The two teams started the same as in the previous games. In the atmosphere of terror created by Celtics fans, the fourth game of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Knicks and Celtics officially kicked off.

Just like in the first game, Zuo Li easily jumped to the ball.

There was a burst of boos from the fans at the scene, but the change on the Knicks' side started from the first second. Zuo Li came out to take the ball and handle the first attack.

The left winger didn't come to Perkins himself, so he directly called for a pick-and-roll. The moment Randolph came over to pick-and-roll, the left winger suddenly started to speed up. He took advantage of the gaps between Perkins and Davis and squeezed flexibly.

Passed by!

Pierce let go of someone to cover up the defense. Normally, the ball would be passed, but Zuo Li didn't. He leaned on Pierce and jumped into the air in three steps, turning sideways and throwing the ball into the basket!

The opening was a difficult goal!

The Celtics didn't take it seriously. It's too difficult to play like this. It doesn't matter if you score one or two. That's not how basketball is played!

Back to the offense, Rondo organizes, slows down, waits for everyone to be in position, and starts running tactics, which is the pick-and-roll.

Pierce caught the ball at the free throw line, carried the ball and went in, the same action, but this time, Zuo Li was in place to cover the ball and blocked the ball with a slap. The referee couldn't call it even if he wanted to.

Chandler got the ball and passed it directly to Dragic. Zuo Li quickly passed down the ball, distributed the ball and caught the ball in one go. By the time Pierce came to his senses, Zuo Li had already dunked!

Score 4 points in a row!

The Celtics continued to operate calmly. This time Pierce learned wisely and took a direct shot. However, Chandler defended very fiercely and turned around and fouled directly, giving Pierce no chance to make a two-plus-one.

Pierce made 1 of 2 from the free throw line and got the Celtics' first point.

There was applause at the scene, but this was the last point they scored within 2 and a half minutes!

Zuo Li, who returned to the offensive end, used an interactive pick-and-roll to attack the basket again. This time Pierce was not in place, and Zuo Li dunked again and scored!

Turning around, the Celtics passed the baseline ball, and Zuo Li stretched out his long arm and it broke!

Pierce quickly defended, but Zuo Li retreated to the three-point line and shot directly!

Pierce was already flying, but he couldn't dodge and hit Zuo Li, and Zuo Li's three-pointer flew through the air and fell into the bag!

"31! What a guy!" Director Zhang was shocked. Zuo Li made a three-pointer and also committed a foul!!!

Incredible!

Zuo Li stood up and walked calmly to the free throw line without celebrating.

brush!

Score 10 points in a row!

"God descended to earth..." Dayao muttered to himself after watching the highlights on his mobile phone.
