I am so Accurate

In the predictions of ESPN and TNT, the Lakers were predicted to win the game in Game 6 and eliminate the Suns 4-2 to advance to the Finals.

The reason is simple. The God of Basketball never plays tiebreakers.

Ah no, we went to the wrong set.

It was the Suns who won so thrillingly in Game 5 at their home court. Game 6 was played at the Lakers' home court, and it was never easy to win.

What's more, there is G6 Sun waiting for them there.

Also predicted are the Eastern Conference Finals, and the favored team is the Wizards.

Let’s take a look at the Eastern Conference finals. The two teams tied 1-1 and then moved to Detroit. The Wizards also took the Pistons home court.

After 4 games, the score was tied at 2-2, and then in G5, McGrady scored 35 points to help the Wizards beat the Pistons 106-86 at home and win the battle of Tianwangshan.

This also gave the Wizards the initiative in the series.

On the second day of the media predictions, G6 of the Eastern Conference Finals took the lead.

The result of the game was similar to what the media predicted.

Although the Pistons played tenaciously, Anthony also played very well.

But the Wizards were full of momentum after winning G5. Yao Ming performed well and scored a huge double-double with 33 points and 12 rebounds!

Under his leadership, the Wizards defeated the Pistons 109-99, eliminating their opponents with a big score of 4-2 to advance to the finals!

Not only did this allow them to successfully avenge last year, but it was also the first time the Wizards reached the finals since Jordan retired!

There was only 3 years between them!

"Who can hold up the sky with one pillar, but I am Marshal Yao!"

"He's coming, he's coming, Yao Shark's final showdown!"

"Everything is ready, all we need is east wind, now it's up to the Lakers!"

"Gogogo! The Lakers shoot down the sun and meet in the finals!"

"I really want Yao to win a championship now, but I don't want to see the Lakers fail to defend their title. What should I do?"

"+1, why can't Dayao and Sun Hao be on the same team? Then we domestic fans won't have difficulty choosing."

"How about dismantling the championship trophy and splitting it into half for each person?"

"I just want to watch the two teams play, whoever wins is fine! The important thing is the process!"

…

After the game, the fans were excited in the forum. They were looking forward to the Wizards-Lakers Finals this season, and now there is only the last step left!

Of course, not all fans.

What Suns fans are looking forward to now is that the Suns can fight hard.

Because in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Wizards won on the road, and the Suns also had a chance.

On the game day, after the Suns' training session, Diaw was interviewed by reporters on the sidelines.

"Do you know G6 Sun?"

After asking some regular questions, the reporter asked Dior an interesting question.

"Of course I know. I am a player from Europe, so I pay more attention to Sun Yat-sen than others."

Dio replied with a smile.

What he didn't say was that he and Parker visited Sun Hao when they were in Europe.

"Then do you think the Suns can win? With G6 Sun."

The reporter asked with a smile.

"Yes, we do, because we have G6 Steve, G6 Amare, G6 Sean, and G6 Boris, that's right, it's me."

Dio laughed at the end.

This is a joke, but judging from Diaw's answer, although there is a lot of pressure, the Suns' mentality is relatively relaxed.

The signal this sends is reassuring to Suns fans.

Because in this kind of critical battle, the biggest fear is that excessive psychological pressure will lead to abnormal performance.

That night, G6 of the Western Conference Finals between the Lakers and Suns kicked off.

The Staples Center was packed with seats, and many fans even held up signs with slogans such as "Next Stop in Washington" and "Lakers Championship."

During the warm-up before the game, Sun Hao was the focus of the live cameras.

G6 Sun's name is now not only circulated among fans, but also officially known.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of the two teams were announced one after another.

Both sides continued to use the starting lineup used in the past three games.

The game officially started after the buzzer sounded, and Stoudemire gave the Suns the opportunity to take the lead.

Nash carries the ball to the frontcourt.

Stoudemire mentioned the high pick-and-roll, and the Suns' tactics have not changed much from the previous games.

Seeing the Lakers' defense moving in, Nash directly chose a high jump shot with his long hair flowing.

"Uh-huh!"

Dove trio, sun and sky driver Fengzi.

Looking back, Payton hit Nash in the low post, attracted a double team, and then split the corner with Ariza, who made a three-pointer.

"Dang!"

The ball seemed to have a fairly straight trajectory, and the force was about the same, but it bounced off the edge of the basket.

There was a scramble under the basket, O'Neal jumped up and grabbed the offensive rebound, and Diaw fouled with quick eyes and hands, sending the Sharks to the free throw line.

O'Neal adjusted his breathing.

The first penalty went wide.

The second penalty was still wide.

"Shark" missed two free throws!

Stoudemire protected the defensive rebound, and the Suns immediately launched a defensive counterattack. Nash passed the ball to Diaw, who followed up on the right.

Diaw broke through with the ball, faked a sudden pass and passed it back to Nash, who shot from mid-range.

"Uh-huh!"

besides!

4 to 0!

"The Suns' offense was really good tonight."

In the broadcast booth of Yangwu, Su Qun spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, on the Lakers' side, Sun Hao's three-pointer from the top of the arc missed the basket.

"The basket was not very friendly to the Lakers tonight!"

Su Qun continued.

If O'Neal's free throws are counted as shooting, the Lakers missed 4 consecutive shots in the opening game!

"This basket is a great addition to my team!"

Zhang Weiping on the side sighed with emotion.

In the Suns' offense, Nash scored suddenly and Pietrus missed a three-pointer from the outside, but Marion grabbed the offensive rebound!

Nash received a pass from Marion at the top of the arc and shot a three-pointer.

"Uh-huh!"

Nash's three-pointer, and more!

Before he knew it, he had already scored 7 points!

"The Lakers are in danger!"

Zhang Weiping continued.

In the past, the Lakers' inability to make shots was a disadvantage. Now that Nash feels so good, this is another aspect.

In the first five games, Nash averaged 18.6 points and 11.8 assists per game, which are also the standard statistics of his career.

In the future, people will often compare Nash and Curry. Some fans believe that Nash's scoring ability is far inferior to Curry.

But in fact, they are the same type of players, but they are in different eras and have different team requirements, so they show up differently.

Many people may use data to refute, saying that Nash only averages 20 points per game at most.

But anyone who looks at total volume without looking at efficiency is a hooligan. You must know that Nash is a perennial member of the 180 club.

Note that it is "perennial". For most players, scoring 180 once is worth boasting for a long time.

Therefore, the media's evaluation of Nash is very objective: He is a super shooter who doesn't like to score and puts passing first.

Now this super pitcher has the momentum to start scoring!

As Zhang Weiping said, this is very dangerous for the Lakers.

Payton continued to press the rhythm with his back, and this time he passed the ball to Walker in the bottom corner on the other side.

Walker's three-point shot.

"Dang!"

still none!

I don’t know whether it’s because of the psychological pressure, or whether it’s because the rim is actually covered with a lid, but the Lakers haven’t scored a goal in the opener for three minutes!

Looking back, Marion scored another three-pointer from the bottom corner!

10 to 0!

Phil Jackson reached out and called a timeout.

This start is a direct game of divine punishment!

The scene was also agitated.

This situation is probably something no one would have imagined before the game!

"Sun, you hold the ball."

The only adjustment Jackson can make is to give the ball to Sun Hao.

Don't be ridiculous, there are Sun Hao, Kobe, Jordan, and James, but you don't give them the ball at critical moments?

Tyronn Lue was very impressed when he saw this sentence.

After the timeout, the Lakers made a substitution, and Finley replaced Payton.

Tactically, it's still a low post, but the ball carrier has changed from Payton to Sun Hao!

As soon as the ball reached Sun Hao's hands, Diaw chose to put Ariza in the right corner to double-team the basket.

As Diaw said, everyone in G6 now knows it, and everyone else in the Suns obviously knows it too.

Even if it's just forcing the ball out of Sun Hao's hands, it's not a loss.

Sun Hao chose to turn and break through to the free throw line!

This choice was unexpected, but it did break the double-team and win space for himself.

Moreover, Stoudemire did not dare to come out from under the basket, and he was not greatly disturbed when the ball was released.

"boom!"

The ball hit the backboard, bounced and then fell into the net bag!

Sun Hao broke the scoring drought!

He knew that he didn't feel very good tonight, so he deliberately chose to hit the board.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

In adversity, you still have to look to Sun Hao!

But the cheers hadn't completely subsided yet. The Suns cooperated in the frontcourt. Nash's fake fax after the pick-and-roll suddenly caused O'Neal's defensive foul.

After he went to the free throw line and made two free throws, he had scored 9 points in this quarter!

Nash is really going to score!

12 to 2!

Since the start of the series, the Lakers have fallen into the most difficult situation.

Because even if Sun Hao continued to score, the Suns continued to attack and they always had the initiative on the court.

Just like the first game, the Lakers relied on a wave of lead in the third quarter to finally win the game!

This is indeed the case. The Suns maintained their advantage in the first quarter and continued to expand their advantage in the second quarter.

By the time halftime ended, the score on the field was 65-50, with the Suns leading!

Nash made 10 of 12 shots in the half and scored 26 points and 3 assists!

Tonight's Steve is a brand new version you haven't seen before!

"The Lakers may be preparing for a Game 7."

In the commentary box, Kenny Smith made an analysis.

"No, there's still half a half of the game, and they still have Sun."

Buckley immediately retorted.

Smith laughed when he heard it, and then couldn't help but shake his head.

The Lakers didn't play badly in the first half, and 50 points is not low in the playoffs.

Moreover, Sun Hao also scored 20 points in the half. Even for him personally, this performance cannot be considered bad.

The key is that the Suns are in great shape, especially Nash.

They say Nash can't score high scores, but he did so tonight!

And the way he scores high points is different from others. Others use high shots to cause fouls. He is accurate, simply accurate!

10 out of 12 shots, almost no misses!

In the midfield locker room, the atmosphere in the Lakers team was a bit dull.

Especially Payton, as the strongest perimeter defender in NBA history, he was a little disgraced by Nash.

Although this has something to do with his age and slowness, the competitiveness of players in the last century is still there.

Sun Hao was also thoughtful.

From when he first got the system to embarking on the road to professional basketball and then to the NBA, he followed a basketball path that focused on offense.

On defense, when he was only with the Mavericks, he had training with Deng Huade, who was assigned to him, and he mostly learned some reasonable tricks.

Taking the system badge as an example, he only has a silver-level "aggressive" on the defensive end.

It's not that he deliberately doesn't pay attention to it, but that he doesn't need it most of the time.

Because as the core of the offense, his defense only needs to be passable.

Defensive issues will naturally be left to his partner's backcourt or forward.

In this regard, after he began to become the core of the team, first Bell, then Ariza, and now Payton, are all of this type.

Even if they break through the backcourt defense, there are still defensive barriers like Dampier and O'Neal inside.

But this game gave him a new thought, whether he should also be more involved in defense.

Whether it's Jordan, Kobe, or James, these most famous players in history basically combine offense and defense.

Especially in the current situation of the Lakers, it is almost difficult for O'Neal to lose weight successfully, and getting older is unstoppable.

Therefore, it can be predicted in advance that the Lakers' interior line will become weaker next season than this season.

If the outside line cannot stop the opponent from entering the penalty area, it is likely that O'Neal will graduate with a full foul before the game is over!

This is not alarmist. The Lakers had already encountered this problem when they played the Spurs in the first round.

But at that time, what was more considered was Walker's poor inside defense ability, but not the issue of outside defense.

Therefore, defensive issues, unless O'Neal is traded away by the Lakers, will be something Sun Hao must consider in the next few seasons.

"Gary."

Thinking of this, Sun Hao stood up.

When Payton heard the voice and saw it was Sun Hao, he looked confused.

"I'll double-team Steve with you. You should pay attention to the situation and switch to defend against Pietrus."

After hearing what Sun Hao said, Payton looked surprised.

In fact, let alone Payton, no one else on the Lakers expected it.

Sun Hao rarely communicated defensive issues with others before, let alone actively asked for help in defense now.

"I see."

Payton nodded, and in front of Sun Hao, he let go of his anger.

"Guys, not only Nash, these guys in Phoenix were in very good shape tonight. If we want to win, we must work harder on the defensive end."

After Sun Hao finished speaking, he turned to look at the others.

"Sun is right, you don't want to go to Phoenix again, do you?"

O'Neill was the first to stand up and echo.

The others nodded one after another, and their faces regained their high morale.

The players on this Lakers team are actually not low at all. They are low because they don't know what to do.

As the boss of the team and the core of the offense, Sun Hao stood up and said that he must defend well. His appeal is incomparable to chicken soup.

It was like fighting in ancient times. The general said he would lead the charge, and the soldiers below were naturally in high spirits.

Sun Hao saw the reactions of the team members and raised his hands into fists.

Other Lakers players stood up and folded their hands one after another.

"Lakers championship!"

A team slogan, the voice should be loud before the game!

That also represents their current determination!
