Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems
Chapter 358 Unparalleled Hero
In June, the Atlantic Ocean begins hurricane season.
On June 1, hurricane season officially begins.
On June 5, Andrea formed its first tropical storm, but it did not become a hurricane and degenerated into an extratropical cyclone shortly after making landfall.
On June 17, US Eastern Time, the day before the sixth game of the NBA Finals, Tropical Depression No. 2 formed in the ocean 40 kilometers north-northwest of Lazaba, Honduras.
On June 18, US time, on the day of Game 6 of the Finals, Tropical Depression No. 2 reached the intensity of a tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico and was named "Barry".
Miami, located in Cape Florida, was affected by this tropical storm and began to experience rainy and windy weather.
On the night of June 18, when Game 6 of the finals was about to start, heavy rain swept through Miami.
The dense raindrops fell on the roof of the American Airlines Center, but this did not affect the enthusiasm of Miami fans who came here to watch the game.
In the stadium, there is still more than an hour before the start of the game, and fans from all over the world are focusing on this field.
Kobe's accidental injury rekindled the Heat's hopes of winning the championship.
Jeff Van Gundy and his old partners Breen and Mark Jackson served as commentators for the game on the sidelines.
In the past, their commentaries were full of witty words and were deeply loved by the audience.
But tonight, the serious situation of the Lakers, Kobe's ruptured Achilles tendon, and the stormy Miami, which may determine the title of the championship, made it impossible for the three to explain the game in a relaxed tone.
"This must be a desperate struggle. For the Los Angeles Lakers, if they lose this game and reach the seventh game, their chances will be even smaller. The ownership of the championship is likely to be determined by this Let's fight to decide."
Van Gundy was right. After losing Game 5, the Lakers came to Miami. Without Kobe, they could still give it a try by relying on the strength of the underdog.
If dragged into the seventh game, the Lakers can hardly compete with the Heat.
Imagine if the Heat folded Wade or James, how can this game be played.
Fortunately, the Lakers have a strong family background, and the eight players who have been to the All-Stars are not a joke.
Forty minutes before the start of the game, players from both sides entered the field to warm up.
At this time, everyone saw that in the Los Angeles Lakers team, there was a man on crutches who walked into the court from the end of the team.
It's Kobe.
His ankles were wrapped in protective gear, and he walked slowly to the bench on crutches.
Then he put down his crutches, sat on the bench, and watched his teammates warm up.
Kobe was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed waiting for the operation, but the stubborn Kobe didn't want to watch his teammates participate in the game in the hospital bed.
He insisted on coming to Miami, to sit courtside and watch his teammates win championships.
With a relaxed expression on his face, Bryant waved to the sidelines, where his wife and daughter sat.
Opening ceremony, the Lakers replaced Kobe Bryant starting is Gasol.
In this way, Ci Shiping came to the position of shooting guard, Li Liang played small forward, and Gasol played power forward.
Brown's arrangement in this way also hopes to be able to surprise the starting lineup.
When the Lakers players were introduced, Li Liang was specially shot.
"Bruce Lee, he's doing enough to win the Finals MVP right now, let alone if he wins this one. A lot of people compare him to Magic Johnson's 1980 season, they're just as amazing. But don't forget Well, Magic is the No. 1 pick and he's a second-round pick."
Van Gundy no longer does any technical and tactical analysis before the game.
He knew that this was unnecessary, and this must be a struggle of spirit and will.
At the end of the opening ceremony, the singing of "The Star-Spangled Banner Never Falls" echoed in the American Airlines Center.
But for Li Liang, he doesn't care at all whether the Stars and Stripes fall or not. He just wants the Lakers' 17th championship flag to be raised.
The game kicks off promptly at 7 p.m. ET.
Miami is still full of wind and rain, and the power of the tropical storm is affecting here.
...
On the night of the finals, the ratings soared in a straight line, surpassing the tiebreaker between the Lakers and Celtics in 2010.
That year's national ratings were 15.6, with 28.2 million viewers.
The only thing higher than this is Jordan's last battle in 1998.
The audience rating reached an astonishing 22.1, and the ratings of the Lakers VS Heat Game 6 have also exceeded 20.
This is already the highest-rated finals game since Jordan retired.
In ESPN's pre-match survey, although many people are optimistic that the Heat can win the championship, except for Florida, all other states in the United States support the Lakers to win the sixth game.
Especially they expect Bruce Lee to get the FMVP, because everyone likes to watch miracles.
The legend of the Magician winning the rookie MVP in 1980 only exists in the history books. That year, the NBA Finals was not even broadcast live on TV, but was recorded and broadcast.
Now, all want to witness the miracle of their own time.
In Li Liang's alma mater, the University of Kentucky, the school's auditorium, dormitory public areas, gymnasium, and multimedia classrooms are all broadcasting the finals between the Lakers and the Heat.
Of course, the Kentucky students overwhelmingly supported the Lakers because of their legendary senior, Li Liang.
In the team's training hall, coach Calipari watched the game with his players.
They didn't have a good record in March Madness, and the champion was eliminated early, needless to say.
Noll entered the draft and left the team.
At this moment, Calipari misses Li Liang very much.
In the past years when there were no championships, when those rising stars left after playing for a year, Li Liang was always there.
Unexpectedly, he is now standing on the stage of the finals and is the favorite of FMVP.
The game has already started, and Calipari is staring at the screen intently.
Li Liang's way of playing now shocked him, because he didn't show this ability at all in college.
But his cleverness and cunning made Calipari take it for granted.
It's just that in tonight's game, relying on cunning is not enough, you must rely on courage, the courage to go forward, to win the game.
For the first goal of the game, the Lakers still won the ball.
Calipari was thinking, what tricks and routines will the Lakers use for their first offense?
In the absence of Kobe, how to make up for the vacancy of more than 25 points.
Li Liang gave the answer.
Catch the ball in two steps from beyond the three-point line, throw one first, and then go in.
Calipari could hear a chorus of shouts from across the Kentucky campus.
Sitting in a chair, Calipari shook his head, this is unscientific.
Are you going to start the super long three-point performance so early?
A minute later, Li Liang scored the second three-pointer in the attack.
The Kentucky players in the training hall were a little restless and began to stand up and watch the game.
Calipari was still calmly sitting on the chair watching the game, but when Li Liang scored another three-pointer in the counterattack, Calipari almost jumped out of the chair!
"Oh my god, something big is going to happen tonight."
Calipari muttered to himself.
...
At this time, in Miami, the American Airlines Center in the wind and rain is quite calm.
Li Liang opened the game with three three-pointers, which made the Heat and the Miami scalp tingle.
How to prevent this?
One or two steps from the three-point line, shoot the ball when you get it, and don't care about the defense at all.
Neither Kobe nor Jordan dared to play like this, but Li Liang did.
His three shots were extremely crisp and neat, without the slightest sloppiness, just like the shots in training, he scored so easily and freely, giving people the feeling that "I can do it if I do it."
But you really can't do it, Li Liang, this is his own strength plus the touch rune bonus.
He knows that when the defensive strength is weaker and the physical strength is better, the more shots are needed to add up the points.
The Heat were beaten 9:2 in the opening game, and Spoelstra had no choice but to call a timeout. It felt very bad, extremely bad.
Li Liang's investment method has never been seen before, which makes people chill.
When he stands two steps away from the three-point line and can ignore your defense and score casually, the collective, competitive and intelligent nature of basketball itself is being destroyed.
As a basketball coach, Spoelstra's consecutive three-pointers in the finals made him feel that his three views of basketball were being destroyed.
For the first time, he felt that as a coach, he was so useless.
On the other bench, Mike Brown felt too useful.
"Defend, defend firmly, and then open the score as soon as possible, use Bruce's three-pointer to open the score as soon as possible!"
The Lakers must widen the gap as soon as possible to establish an advantage, and cannot fall into a protracted battle with the Heat in Miami.
The timeout ended quickly, and Li Liang shook his hand, feeling great.
He said to Brown: "Mike, don't let me rest tonight...I won't rest even if I die."
Brown nodded, thinking: I won't let you die.
...
Far away in Los Angeles on the west coast, when the game started, it was still dark in Los Angeles.
And the Staples Center is also open tonight, for fans who don't want to watch the game at home, go to the scene to feel the atmosphere of the game through the big screen.
Not only ordinary fans were present, but Hollywood stars and Lakers legends still came to the scene even though there was no live TV broadcast, looking up at the big screen to watch the game.
Those who can come are no longer for exposure, but really love basketball and the Lakers.
Abdul-Jabbar, Worthy, and Johnson all came to the arena.
Jabbar and Johnson talked, reminiscing about the past in 1980.
"Maybe that kid can be like you."
"Maybe, but I think he might be better than me."
"He has an incredible Li Liang."
"Unbelievable."
It is indeed incredible that Jabbar, who has always talked less, seems to talk a lot.
And the magician who has always talked a lot seems to talk very little.
They watched the game on the screen together. After the timeout ended, Li Liang stopped shooting three-pointers.
The Heat stepped up their one-on-one man-marking, and Haslem never left.
But he can still make shots, just give him a full shot and he can throw the ball in.
"Is it possible to score as long as you shoot? When did the basketball game become so simple?"
Jabbar sighed.
"Isn't that what your hook is like?"
Johnson replied.
"yeah!"
Cheers erupted as Li Liang hit a pull-up jumper on the counterattack.
In the first quarter, he made 7 of 8 shots.
"God, 17 points, 17 points in the first quarter... Is this guy so accurate?"
...
The fans at the American Airlines Center were on the verge of a meltdown, and the first quarter was just over.
Li Liang made 3 of 3 three-pointers in the first quarter, 4 of 5 mid-range jumpers and no free throws. He scored 17 points in a single quarter.
The Lakers led the Heat by 9 points at 34:25!
Li Liang's hand feels so hot, as long as he is given a chance, the shot is almost sure to hit.
The 37.5% feel bonus is really terrible.
Li Liang could feel that he had completely entered the so-called zoom state.
He was just shooting and the ball just went right in.
Sitting on the bench, what Mike Brown said, what his teammates said, and what other people were saying, he couldn't listen at all.
The only sound left in my ears is the sound of breathing, hustle and bustle, whistle and whistle.
His concentration was intense, concentrated on his hands.
He didn't even want to take a cup to drink water, because he was afraid of ruining the feel of his hand.
Mike Brown's tactical arrangement is very simple, creating opportunities for Li Liang.
Screen him, screen him, block him, pass him the ball.
Li Liang is not Kobe after all, it is not acceptable to let him hold the ball, he must create enough shooting space for him.
Mike Brown has already felt it, Li Liang feels very good tonight, he will definitely be able to make up for Kobe's vacancy!
...
Los Angeles, Li Liang's home.
Zhu Shu and Bai Xiaoting sat in the living room together, turning on the TV to watch the finals.
Bai Xiaoting asked Zhu Shu: "Hey, why don't you go to Miami and stay at home to watch the game?"
After Kobe's Achilles tendon ruptured in the last game, Bai Xiaoting stopped paying attention to the finals.
As Komi, she only wants to know the result, not the process.
Zhu Shu said: "He told me not to go, and asked me to wait for him in Los Angeles."
"Cut, there's something wrong, what's there to wait for?" Bai Xiaoting was still so rude to Li Liang.
Zhu Shu smiled and said, "He said, my ideal person is a world-class hero, and he will come back to see me with the championship trophy."
Bai Xiaoting hugged the pillow in her arms tightly and said nothing.
At this time on the TV, the second quarter of the game has already begun.
Li Liang's scoring performance continued.
From the beginning, he had no intention of stopping.
