Guard With a Knife

Nine hundred and seventy-six: [Sneak attack by the three Miami giants]

After Bryant finished the job, he walked to the locker room in a happy mood.

He was so happy that he even high-fived two children wearing James jerseys in the tunnel, but he ignored those middle-aged men with big bellies... It's normal for children to like players they shouldn't like because of their shallow knowledge, but How can adults forgive me?

When he came to the locker room, the old guys of the Lakers had already prepared rich gifts for him.

They welcomed the returning veteran with a bucket of ice water, and everyone applauded his outstanding performance tonight.

After all, it's rare. Who would have thought that an old guy who was about to turn 34 could play almost the entire game in the finals under high-intensity defense and score close to 40 points.

The Black Mamba is feeling the love from his teammates and is no longer so cold. He walked towards the shower room with almost no energy. He had to give himself a comfortable post-match relaxation.

However, when he was halfway through the rush, he found that he could not lift his left foot.

This is a sign of cramping.

Codes. These damn guys, why are they pouring ice water on them?

Bryant grumbled as he sat down and started massaging himself.

After rubbing it for almost twenty minutes, my left leg recovered from the cramp.

This made him realize that he was really getting older. He used to play the whole game without cramping at all, but he didn't expect that he would cramp for so long tonight.

well!

He sighed and walked back to the locker room from the bathroom. Timberlake, the team's chief physical trainer, ran over. He said: Snoopy asked me to come over and take you for comprehensive post-game physical therapy.

Snoopy is such a sweetheart.

Black Mamba muttered inwardly.

Follow Timberlake to the recovery room. Timberlake is a Laker who returned in March this year. He is like the deep sea who has completed the lurking mission in Chicago. After returning to the Lakers, he was widely welcomed.

This made the Duke a little depressed, so he always sent him to do services everywhere, and let him do it himself.

For example, tonight he assigned Timberlake the task of serving Kobe Bryant.

I just didn't expect that Black Mamba would be a little touched.

Miami's failure in the first game changed the arrogance of the Florida media. Before the start of the series, they shouted various slogans loudly, but now, the purple and gold guns made them understand what it means to roar with starry cannons.

The two of them put aside their tactics and defeated the Big Three that they were proud of with their sheer bravery.

They wanted to continue shouting slogans, but could they do it?

I can only look at the major sports forums, all the IDs are flooding the screen: Lakers championship! !

Although Mr. Pat Riley was still optimistic after the game: "We still have a chance. Snoopy and Kobe Bryant cannot be so accurate in every game, and at Bryant's age, he has almost no chance." Probably play every game in this series.”

"Moreover, in the first game, we proved our defense. We can defend all Lakers players except Kobe and Snoopy, right?"

What Pat Riley said is logically correct.

However, everyone in the basketball media now knows that Duke Snoop is never logical. Starting from normal logic, how can a guy who fell down even when running faster in college become the best basketball player in the world in five years?

Therefore, Reggie Miller even joked: "Once the Miami Heat start to talk logic, it means they are not far from failure!"

Although this is a wisecrack, it has gained a lot of recognition.

no way.

His great reputation was gained through countless tough battles.

Looking at Duke's resume, the Celtics, Hawks, Magic in 2009... which one did not grasp the correct logic, but which one did not end in a disastrous defeat? Then came 10 years, 11 years, 12 years. The Eastern Conference championship for four consecutive years is enough for everyone to remember the Duke's unreasonable attitude.

Pat Riley was obviously a little carried away.

The second game of the finals is still held in the spotlight.

Two days later, the people of Miami seemed to have forgotten the pain of finishing the first game. They were still booing Snoop and Kobe Bryant as loud as they could, as if they were trying to crush the two most paranoid basketball players in the world today.

However, the Big Three, especially Wade and James, felt relieved.

They are the ones who take the field personally, and they have to suffer the consequences of being provoked.

Fortunately, both Snoop and Kobe Bryant were in good mood today and were not disturbed by the boos from the home fans.

At the beginning, it was also a scene of spring and snow.

The Lakers gently used "affectionate" glances. Kobe Bryant and Snoopy repeatedly performed Tai Chi, touching the basketball back and forth, and then passed it to Nash or Carlos Boozer to finish.

After a mediocre first game, these two finally recovered in the second game.

Nash still scored 2 three-pointers in the first quarter, and even took the time to rush into the penalty area and shoot a floater... Frankly speaking, when he took off, Dugger really thought he would carry the banner of the New Los Angeles Slam Dunk League. , however... the result was that he was still a long way from the basket and could only make a throw.

Steve Nash and Carlos Boozer played well in the first quarter, giving Kobe Bryant the opportunity to return to the bench in the second quarter.

The Lakers used a rotating lineup for the first time in the Finals. Duke Snoop led a group with Baron Davis, Ron Artest, Antawn Jamison, Milicic and LeBron James. The substitute lineup went head-to-head.

Tonight, the Heat did not show any aggressive momentum.

Whether it was the Big Three or other role players, they all played steadily, and the rhythm was not deliberately strengthened.

"This is kind of like a mediocre playoff game." Charles Barkley said boredly in the commentary box.

Frankly speaking, fans who experienced the first finals felt this way.

The first game was a matchup of talents like Mars hitting the earth. It was definitely the strongest confrontation in the history of the NBA.

However, now, both sides actually have the intention of holding back and fighting.

That would be so boring.

When everyone was sighing like this, finally...the Miami Heat showed their fangs, and they took the lead in showing off.

When Pat Riley entered the fifth minute of the second quarter, he was replaced by Dwyane Wade and then Chris Bosh. The Heat immediately launched a fierce offensive. Under the rush strategy of the Big Three, the point difference was widened to double digits within two minutes.

The Lakers' veterans have no problem playing in positions to hone their rhythm. However... what they are now facing is the fast and sharp lightning offensive of the Big Three. They were instantly overwhelmed.

Snoopy immediately requested a timeout when the point difference widened to 11 points.

Miami's sudden attack caught him a little by surprise.

At this time, Pat Riley on the sidelines had a proud smile on his face.

He thought he had executed a very good ambush this time. The 11-point lead gave the Miami Heat absolute tactical initiative. He believes that no matter how crazy the Zijin Double Gun is, it will be difficult to chase back the double-digit point difference against the Big Three.

Moreover, this is the home court of the Heat.

"The Lakers are a little careless. In other words, Snoopy believes too much in the strength of the rotation. When Miami replaces the Big Three, he should quickly adjust Kobe Bryant." Earl Johnson said in the commentary box .

"Actually, Bryant is also a veteran. I think the reason Snoopy didn't make any substitutions with Miami was because he wanted to gain tactical initiative. But I didn't expect Miami's Big Three to be so strong!" Ken Nismith explained.

"But no matter what, the next game will definitely be good to watch. With the characters of Snoopy and Kobe Bryant, they are definitely not the kind of people who take losses and swallow them. They will definitely seize the time to get revenge."

Smith knows Zijin Shuangqiang's character quite well.

He said everything Barkley wanted to say.

Barkley has already entered theater mode.

He also believed that this was a watershed in the game. After a long and boring half-time offensive, the two sides finally tore off the mask of peace, and the Miami Heat took the lead in taking the first shot.

Now, just wait for the response from the Purple and Gold Army.

In fact, after returning to the bench, Snoop immediately ordered all his troops: Kobe Bryant, Kyle Korver, Whiteside, and Milicic joined the team.

This is the main lineup from the last game.

Beep!

As the whistle blew, five people walked onto the court. The noisy American Airlines Center couldn't help but hold its breath for two seconds.

In the ESPN commentary box, Reggie Miller even shouted: "Okay! Game 2 of the Finals officially begins now!"
