Super Legendary Superstar

Chapter 469 The third game of the finals!

The Lakers won the first game, and Sun Zhuo defeated Kobe in terms of personal data. This seems to be very similar to what Kenny Smith predicted before. In this game, Sun Zhuo has proven that he is truly the number one in the world. , even if he is better than Kobe, he is still slightly inferior to Sun Zhuo.

In the first game of the finals, the outcome is not too important. Sun Zhuo and Kobe gave such wonderful personal performances, which every fan can enjoy.

After the game, the Lakers returned to the locker room. The players were all in high spirits and praised Kobe, who led the team to victory today, as a hero. However, Kobe was not in a good mood. Of course he was happy to win. He wanted to leave very much. O'Neal would win another championship, but in his heart, he always felt that it was not perfect, because in terms of personal scoring ability, Kobe seemed to have failed.

Phil Jackson was naturally the happiest one. He smiled at Kobe and said, "Well done today, thank you for your hard work. People will only remember how many points the man who won the championship and FMVP scored."

Kobe smiled and nodded. History will only record those winners. Kobe should not be too entangled in the personal competition with Sun Zhuo. Perhaps Sun Zhuo was born to score.

The Lakers players did not expect that they would welcome their opponent, and it was Sun Zhuo who came!

Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol were stunned when they saw Sun Zhuo's visit. What was Sun Zhuo doing here? Was he unwilling to lose? Is he here to fight? But why come here alone? Artest should be called again. Or was he trying to show off that he scored 71 points, once again set a single-game scoring record in the playoffs, and successfully won the personal battle with Kobe?

"Hey, Sun." After Kobe saw Sun Zhuo, he went over to say hello happily and friendly. He knew that Sun Zhuo was not looking for trouble. After all, Sun Zhuo was also a Lakers player. Kobe, Odom, and Fisher were all with him. Sun Zhuo was a teammate and played together under Zen Master.

"Kobe, congratulations on winning the first game." Sun Zhuo said with a smile. When he came to the Lakers home team locker room, he was still very friendly and unconsciously glanced at his former wardrobe.

Sun Zhuo was not here to congratulate them this time, he was here to see Phil Jackson.

"Phil, after the series is over, do you have time to chat?" Sun Zhuo extended an invitation to the Zen master.

Phil Jackson didn't know why Sun Zhuo wanted to see him. Maybe he had something to talk about. The two always had endless things to say and endless stories to talk about. He also enjoyed chatting with Sun Zhuo very much and readily agreed: "No problem, come No matter who wins the championship, I guarantee it will not affect our conversation."

After Sun Zhuo left, other players were also speculating why Sun Zhuo wanted to invite Zen Master. Odom joked: "Maybe he is considering rejoining us because he knows that our lineup will always win championships."

"Haha." Others also laughed, but Kobe didn't laugh, because if Sun Zhuo really joins the Lakers, will Kobe still be the boss?

In the first game, Phil Jackson's understanding of Sun Zhuo helped the Lakers win. Sun Zhuo made many mistakes and fouls and almost left the game, but that's it. He also scored 71 points, so many experts analyzed it. , Sun Zhuo's maximum score in a single game in the playoffs is by no means 71 points. One day in the future, he will continue to break this record.

There was not much time to adjust, and the second game of the finals soon arrived.

Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping also came to the Staples Center Arena in Los Angeles to feel the atmosphere of the scene. Although they, as Chinese, support Sun Zhuo and the Magic, it was difficult not to be attracted by the scene during the commentary. Driven by the atmosphere, every time the Lakers score a goal, there will be cheers on the scene. On the contrary, when the Magic score, the scene is very quiet. The emotions of Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping will also be affected, and the passion cannot be mobilized.

Yu Jia: "The first game became a personal exhibition match for Sun Zhuo and Kobe. One of them scored 63 points and the other scored 71 points. Director Zhang, do you think this game will be like this again?"

Zhang Weiping said: "I think this second game won't happen. Both of them should be tired, and there are seven games in the series. It's impossible to play like this in every game. The personal duel between Sun Zhuo and Kobe is over. What's next? It's a competition between the entire team. Kobe scored more than 60 points on Artest's head in the last game. Will Kobe become more and more comfortable facing Artest? Artest is defensive. When the time comes, will we lose confidence and patience and become more impatient? These are all issues that need to be observed."

Hearing this, Yu Jia asked: "Just now you said that Kobe scored more than 60 points, and Artest who defended him would lose confidence in defense. Then Sun Zhuo scored 71 points. How many points did he defend Sun Zhuo? Will a player also..."

Zhang Weiping smiled and waved his hand: "No need, they have lost confidence for a long time. They knew from the beginning that they could not deal with Sun Zhuo. Unlike Artest, who vowed to guard Kobe before the finals. The only thing they can do is cut off Sun Zhuo's connection with his teammates and prevent his teammates from performing as well."

At the game site, due to the excitement of the previous game, the audience was still enthusiastic about this game, and they were extremely looking forward to another personal battle between Kobe and Sun Zhuo.

But Sun Zhuo and Kobe are really tired.

It's not that I'm physically tired, but that I'm mentally tired. The kind of mental pressure brought about by a duel is something that ordinary players can't experience.

Sure enough, at the beginning, Kobe and Sun Zhuo did not attack by themselves, but left it to their teammates. The Lakers relied on the cooperation of Pau Gasol and Odom to score one, while for the Magic, it was Monta Ellis himself. Scored a three-pointer.

In the first quarter, Sun Zhuo scored 6 points and Kobe Bryant scored 5 points.

In the second quarter of the game, the two began to take over some offenses, but they did not force shots and continue to attack. It was not until the third quarter that Sun Zhuo could not sit still for the first time.

"As long as we win one of the two away games, this series will be easy to play." Sun Zhuo really wanted to win the first game as soon as possible, so he suddenly attacked the Lakers in the third quarter and scored consecutive three-pointers to pull away. Open the score.

"Are we about to start? Very good, you can get my response at any time." Seeing that Sun Zhuo was about to show off his power, Kobe also hit consecutive hits, bringing the score closer.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Durant's outside touch also improved. Together with Sun Zhuo, he kept attacking the basket from mid- to long-range positions and hit one shot after another.

Kobe suddenly felt out of shape, but Odom suddenly played an important role, but soon, Sun Zhuo once again widened the point difference and put pressure on the Lakers again.

"He wants to win the second game so much." Phil Jackson could see Sun Zhuo's desire for this victory. However, these two games were both in Los Angeles, the home court of the Lakers. They had no reason to let Sun Zhuo lead from here. Go for a victory.

Kobe's condition today is obviously not as good as in the last game. At this time, it is probably not feasible for Kobe to deal with Sun Zhuo alone. The only way is to completely block Sun Zhuo and prevent him from continuing.

Phil Jackson took the risk to double-team Sun Zhuo and release the Magic's perimeter. Monta Ellis and Kevin Durant did not disappoint Sun Zhuo. They actually made one shot after another. At the beginning, there was still no defense. In the end, Even if there is a defense, they will still advance.

Phil Jackson shook his head helplessly and sighed. It seemed that today's luck was with the Magic. Whether it was Sun Zhuo or his teammates, they could end the game.

Seeing the atmosphere getting more and more silent, Yu Jia said: "It feels like after the Lakers won a game, they didn't play hard this time. Except for Odom, who had a small explosion, Kobe and others didn't even play in the Western Conference finals. I have no energy at all.”

Zhang Weiping said: "Although the Lakers won the last game, they lost in the Ace Showdown. If the Magic didn't have a superstar like Sun Zhuo, then the Lakers would win the first game and the second game would be even better. If you are excited, it will be easier to win, but if the Magic have Sun Zhuo, everyone knows that if you don’t play hard and restrict Sun Zhuo, you can’t win. This will put a kind of pressure on them invisibly, plus today’s Magic team With all the outside shooting open, the Lakers lost all their courage to chase points."

"I also feel like this, especially when they fall behind, they seem to become particularly panicked. It's because Sun Zhuo's scoring ability is so explosive." Yu Jia wrote about what he felt at the scene today and later wrote it on his blog. , Sun Zhuo's 71 points in the first game, although he did not win, gave every Lakers player a deterrent. They saw the game as more difficult and complicated, and no longer had a relaxed mentality.

The game ended quickly. With Sun Zhuo and other players performing well, the Magic won the second game, turning the big score into a 1:1 tie.

This is not a good thing for the Lakers.

In the first game, Sun Zhuo scored 71 points.

In the second game, Sun Zhuo won the ball.

In an interview with reporters after the game, Artest proudly spoke of a saying that became popular some time ago: "Since you can get home court advantage in the Finals in one game, why risk your life in the regular season?"

"Because Kobe wants to win the MVP." After seeing Artest's remarks, countless people responded online. Even if the Lakers lost the home court advantage, their results in the regular season were by no means without gain. Kobe's routine The game MVP is the biggest one.

After two games, the Magic quickly returned to Orlando.

After Sun Zhuo returned home, Kerry couldn't wait to kiss Sun Zhuo. She did not follow him to Los Angeles, but waited for him to come back in Orlando. The 1:1 record in the away game was already considered a victory, so Kerry was also very happy. Joy was expressed to Sun Zhuo by kissing.

Sun Zhuo and Kai Rui have been together for a long time. However, because Sun Zhuo has to go to compete in various places, Kai Rui sometimes goes to other places to film. This is not the reason why they see each other every day. The two are still in the stage of being passionately in love. A kiss is a real kiss, not a routine thing like eating and drinking. They both have real feelings, which leads to something happening between the two of them.

"I want to have a child with you." Kai Rui said to Sun Zhuo.

Sun Zhuo stroked Kerry's hair, looked into her royal blue eyes, and said nothing.

"After the finals, shall I go back to China with you?" Kerry said to Sun Zhuo again.

"Aren't you planning to go to BJ again in July?" Sun Zhuo asked. After returning to China, he had some things to arrange about the secret league.

"I've changed my mind. This summer, I plan to never be separated from you for a second, okay?" Kerry's voice was gentle and affectionate.

Sun Zhuo's eyes flashed, he nodded, and then held Kerry in his arms. At this moment, he even had the urge to tell Kerry everything.

Because Sun Zhuo is a reborn person, he has a system, and he is burdened with this secret. Sun Zhuo has always felt that he cannot love each other equally as Kerry. There are lies and concealment in love, and it is no longer the purest love. Sun Zhuo Although he is an athlete, he values ​​love more than anyone else.

Kerry snuggled into Sun Zhuo's arms. Sun Zhuo didn't know that Kerry was smiling at this time. He began to imagine the scene where Kerry knew his secret. This assumption made Sun Zhuo a little flustered.

The scene of the third game.

This is not Los Angeles, but there are also many celebrities on the sidelines, including some die-hard Lakers fans, who even challenged Sun Zhuo with a bet.

One advantage of playing at home is that almost everyone there supports you. They won't upset your mood, they will only give you motivation.

In the first few games of a series, the players will not lack too much motivation, but they will get tired easily as they play. Therefore, the closer to the last one or two games of the series, the more obvious the advantages and disadvantages of the home and away games become.

The third game is not that important.

Both sides were following step by step, doing the same thing as before. But what people didn't expect was that this time, Artest suddenly broke out.

He made three of three outside three-pointers from the beginning and quickly scored more than ten points.

"Artest finally found a feeling." Sun Zhuo was also very pleased. He recruited Artest not only to let him defend, but his scoring ability is also very important. When he was with the Kings, he was the second scorer. .

"Ron Artest..." Kobe looked at Artest's proud look and felt very uncomfortable, because now Artest is being defended by him. If on the one hand, Artest is allowed to limit his On the one hand, he was scored by Artest, so wouldn't Kobe be blown away on both offense and defense?

"Since he has good touch, let him attack. It's not like I can't defend." Kobe snorted. Kobe is a super scorer, but many people forget that Kobe is also very strong in one-on-one defense. , he, like Jordan, when defending, not only must guard the opponent, but also make the opponent's confidence collapse.

Kobe couldn't make a super scorer like Sun Zhuo collapse in confidence, but he was still very confident in dealing with Artest, whose touch was sometimes good and sometimes not.

"Stop shooting, so your three-point shooting percentage will be 100%." ​​Kobe said to Artest.

Sorry, I have been in Japan for the past two days and the Internet is not good. I did not update yesterday. I will update it in a few days.
