Chapter 783: Three Consecutive Crowns, Eagle Dynasty

『Chapter error, click here to report』

'I don't have much to say about the game, Goran Dragic has been impressive and I think he will be a superstar in his own right. Tomato-''.'f'q'x-s'

We are already 3-0 down, and for the Lakers at this stage, winning one game first is the top priority. Phil Jackson said at the press conference.

"Do you think there's a problem with Joe Crawford's free throws, especially when he played in the third quarter, knocking out Eagles players like Kraft Nguyen in quick succession. An Atlanta reporter asked noncommittally.

"I'm not a referee, you should ask Joe Crawford about that, it's not my job. With that, Phil Jackson left his place.

Even if you sit at home, as a loser, you don't have much to say.

Then, Woodson appeared at the press conference with a calm Goran Dragic on his face.

It is true that the claw machine broke out personally and led the team to reverse the Lakers, but it also takes courage and determination to dare to let go of power at a critical moment and put the main control of the team in the hands of Dragic.

After all, it's the finals, and it's quite rare for a guy like Woodson to gamble.

A reporter asked, "Coach Woodson, what do you think is the reason why the Hawks were able to finally turn around tonight?"

Mike Woodson shrugged his shoulders and said, "Isn't the reason just sitting next to me? Have you ever seen the second sophomore rookie who can score 23 points in a single quarter of the Finals? A Slovenian guy named Goran Dragic did it." ”

Then a reporter threw the question to the claw machine: "Golan, what prompted you to suddenly break out at the end of the quarter? Can you elaborate on it?"

"I just felt like I should have shot in those moments," Dragic said.

In fact, in the first half of the season, I struggled and I gained weight in the summer, but my shooting percentage was lower than last season.

Here I have to thank two people, my teammate Mike Bibby and the team's assistant coach Van Exel. They helped me a lot and provided me with a lot of experience.

The coach, the team, my teammates also gave me the most trust, and I gradually regained my touch at the end of January and I became stronger than I used to and better defensively than I did last season.

Last year I was a little guy in the finals and I could only play in the rotation, but this year I knew I could do more from G1.

There must have been a chance reason for tonight's game, but for me it was a grand final. ”

"Ever wanted to be the leader of a team?" the Los Angeles reporter provoked at the end.

The claw machine immediately showed its mature side, and replied without hesitation: "When we win the championship, I will answer your question." ”

……

The post-game press conference ended on a note, but the discussion about the Atlanta Hawks and Los Angeles Lakers was not limited to the media and fans.

Los Angeles, in one of the official offices of the NBA.

"What do you think about G3?" said Stern yawning wearily as he sat down in the main seat of the conference room to ask about the G3 Finals that had just ended.

In fact, several league executives who were sitting there either stayed directly in Staples with Stern to watch the game not long ago, or they also knew the results of the game through satellite TV.

Adam Shaw was the first to speak as the league's prince: "Joe Crawford is incompetent, he lost control of the game in the fourth quarter, the Lakers should not have been reversed, G4 we need a stronger referee to enforce the law, I suggest Dick Bavita blow this game." ”

Mark Tatum (Tan Huimin) said: "I don't think there is any suspense in the finals. The strength of the Eagles is the biggest reason why they won the G3, and there is no need to put the blame on Joe Crawford, or are we going to put a little limit on them starting in the summer?"

With the leader, the alliance officials after him naturally spoke one by one and expressed their opinions.

But the general scope does not go beyond the framework of Xiao Hua and Tan Huimin.

However, it should be pointed out that no side is optimistic that the Lakers can reverse the championship, and in the history of the NBA, there has not been a team that fell behind 3-0 and finally reversed successfully.

In other words, the dynasty of the Atlanta Hawks is just around the corner, and Nguyen Er Niu, as the most successful Celestial Dynasty player in NBA history and the most successful foreign player at present, is about to complete his own ascension to the throne.

Just like the nickname "Eastern Tyrant" given to the Celestial Empire by the fans of the United States in Erniu's rookie season, the Celestial Empire people really led the Atlanta Hawks to build a foundation.

Stern thought about it for a long time, pushed his glasses and said to Xiao Hua: "How far does Bavita have to blow in order for the Lakers to win the game, and how can the credibility of the league not be affected?"

After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Hua to explain, Stern said to Tan Huimin again: "How do you restrict the Hawks? Do you use administrative means to break them up, or simply let the other teams in the league divide them?"

Tan Huimin also didn't get a chance to explain, Stern then said to everyone: "G4 don't think about restricting anyone, don't think about deliberately looking for trouble with anyone in the summer, some things, instead of taking the initiative to intervene, it is better to go with the flow, and sometimes, you have to believe in the power of the system." ”

Adam Xiao Hua instantly understood, and he immediately said: "You mean, the salary cap and Ruan Erniu's personal ......"

David Stern interrupted directly and asked rhetorically: "In the summer, Kraft Nguyen is a two-time MVP and a three-time FMVP, and no one on active duty has achieved such an achievement, isn't he worthy of these?"

Mr. Chairman spoke, and the officials of the alliance naturally listened attentively and acted on orders.

G4 will start in G3 two days later, and the 09-10 season will come to an end.

Ruan Erniu and Sun Yue also accepted an interview with CCTV on the first day after the end of G3, taking advantage of the gap between resuming training.

In addition to the finals, Zhang Li asked Erniu about the national team's participation in the World Championships in Turkey.

"I've been notified of the training camp, but I won't have time to return to the national team until at least after the finals. Erniu said.

"Are you physically able to eat?" Zhang asked with concern.

Director Zhang must not know that Erniu is about to withdraw from the Celestial Empire men's basketball team forever after this World Championships.

"No problem, I'm still very young, Sun Yue, do you have any questions?" Ruan Erniu asked Sun Yue on the side with a smile.

Sun Yue also smiled: "I'm just dizzy when I take the plane, everything else is OK!"

Director Zhang encouraged: "If the G4 Lakers play too badly, Sun Yue, you must also seize every opportunity to play, the experience of the finals is not something that ordinary players can get." ”

Sun Yue just smiled and didn't speak.

For him, it doesn't make much difference whether to win the championship ring anyway, and whether to get a few minutes of garbage time on the court or just guard the water cooler until he is old.

Neither of these methods will change Sun Yue's position as a marginal person on the championship team, and as a commodity in the business league, his value will not change qualitatively because of a few minutes of garbage time.

But going to the national team is a completely different concept, once you play well in the World Championships, and use the stage of international competitions to improve your value, it is definitely the most in line with Sun Yue's interests, from this point of view, Sun Yue's urge to seriously play the World Championships is definitely much greater than playing a few minutes in the finals.

The Hawks players are already thinking about their summer schedule, and the Lakers will need to make a last-ditch effort for their own face.

In any case, it is extremely humiliating to be swept out of the Finals by the opponent, but the G3 reversal is still dangling in front of the Lakers, and the Atlanta Hawks with 75 wins are really unfathomable, and God knows what new tactics the opponent will come up with in G4 against the home team.

Kobe Bryant famously said an NBA quote after losing to the Hawks in the Finals in the 07-08 season: "second-place-is-the-first-loser!"

Bryant didn't want to be a loser for the second or third time, but the reality was too cruel, and the finals had completely fallen to Atlanta, a fact that Black Mamba couldn't change no matter how paranoid or middle two he was.

The core of competitive sports, in the final analysis, is not "friendship first, competition second", only the real strong can have the last laugh and enjoy the supreme glory.

On June 10, 2010, the Atlanta Hawks continued their Finals G4 with the Lakers at the Staples Center.

Tonight's referee was unsurprisingly replaced by the league's oldest player, Dick Bavita.

For the Atlanta Hawks, is Dick Bavita really a better choice to enforce than Joe Crawford?

Not necessarily, because in the long history of the NBA, Bavita has also had at least two key game blowing experiences in favor of the Lakers:

On June 4, 2000, the Trail Blazers and Lakers played Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals.

The Trail Blazers led the Lakers 71-58 in the first three quarters.

But in the final quarter, the Trail Blazers suddenly fell into passivity and were whistled for a lot of fouls.

The Lakers frequently stepped to the free-throw line and eventually turned the tide. The Lakers made 37 free throws in the game, while the Trail Blazers made just 16, with Pippen and Sabonis both shooting in the fourth quarter.

Bavita's most controversial decision came in the 2002 Western Conference Finals.

Donaghi once broke the news that the NBA official instructed the referee to ensure that the Lakers advanced.

Bavita officiated Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals, in which the Lakers made 27 free throws in the fourth quarter to win the game, but Stern said there was absolutely no such thing and that Bavita was innocent.

Well, the three famous whistles, Joe Crawford and Dick Bavita all have a black history, so is Mr. T Steve Jarvey a white lotus?

Let's take a look at the autobiography written by Donashe, the famous black whistle in the NBA.

According to Donahi, Jarvey's most hated star is Iverson, and as long as he blows a free throw, no matter how many times Iverson is knocked down by an opponent, he will not get a free throw. And Iverson did clash with Jarvey many times.

It is understood that the general manager of the 76ers at the time even wanted the league not to let Jarvey blow their game.

Other than that, the Rockets are a team that Jarvey doesn't like very much.

After Jarvey's retirement, Rockets fans once claimed that he was the "most unfair referee in history to the Rockets", including Olajuwon and Yao Ming, and others have suffered from him.

It can be seen that there is no absolute fairness and justice in this world.

The league always needs referees to make a blow in favor of one side in the game, and what the league needs most is not justice, but ratings. As long as a key game like a tie-break is handed over to both teams, the NBA can maintain a minimum of fairness.

In fact, even Donaghi, who has been in prison for a long time, has never completely denied the competition between NBA teams, and he said bluntly in his book: "Our task is to blow the game to a tie-break, which is what the league needs." ”

As for the strength of the blowing penalty for each game, I am afraid that the top management of the league who gave the hint before the game knows best.

Tonight, Stern and Bill Russell are on the scene together.

Last season's FMVP trophy was named the Bill Russell Cup, and if the Hawks can win the game tonight, the two bulls have the best chance of becoming the owner of a triple FMVP tonight, and he will also become the first man in NBA history to win the Bill Russell Cup.

In the players' tunnel, Er Niu once again saw Russell, who had a white beard, and the old man was in good spirits, and joked with Er Niu: "You won't let me wait another three days, or fly to Atlanta again, right? I want to go back to Seattle early to hunt and fish!"

Erniu laughed and gave Russell a big hug, and Manniu said in an affirmative tone, "Tonight, just tonight, Bill, I promise to catch a flight back to Seattle tonight." ”

After the usual warm-up and mat performances, the two teams took to the pitch first.

Ruan Erniu defeated An Zhu again in the jump ball session, and the ball came to the hands of the Eagles.

Claw held the ball past half court and then put the ball in the hands of Sen, who stepped back with a crossover+ to open the scoring for the Hawks in G4 with a three-pointer.

On the offensive end of the Lakers, Kobe missed a high shot, but Bynum clicked to the frontcourt rebound, and the ball was picked up by Gasol.

The sister-in-law distributed the ball to Artest on the flank, and Atay took the ball and took a shot.

"Bang!"

The opportunity is out, but Artest's shooting percentage is really worrying, don't be fooled by his shot against the Suns.

In the 09-10 season, Artest shot just 39.8% from the field in the playoffs, and his iron rate was quite impressive.

Erniu took advantage of the situation to win the rebound and sent the ball to the fast Salmons, Kobe Bryant chased the defense in time, and the Hawks slowed down the pace to play the position.

Nguyen Er Niu received the ball from Salmons just after halftime, and then he distributed the ball to the claw machine in the high post.

Erniu took advantage of the situation to cut the basket, the claw machine distributed the ball to Sen, Sen received the ball and sent it forward instantly, the ball just arrived in the hands of Erniu in the marching room, Erniu got up under the basket, and the defense against Anzhu was a violent buckle.

"Boom!"

Erniu knocked Bynum directly to the floor and beat his chest and roared.

No one could stop the Hawks from building a dynasty, and the Hawks showed a winning belief in the first quarter of G4.

The Lakers didn't show the courage to fight to the death in G4, they seemed to be waiting for the referee's whistle to blow, but Dick Bavita's whistle tonight was more fair, and the Lakers' home-court advantage was also given.

At 26:16, the Hawks led their opponents by 10 points in the first quarter, and the Staples Center had already begun to have fans leave the court early, and the Lakers' performance was indeed disappointing.

In the second quarter of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers, who had long had no way out, finally showed the courage to fight to the end, Kobe Bryant performed eye-catching in this quarter, shooting 3 of 4 in a single quarter, including 2 of 2 three-pointers, and scored 8 points, leading the team to play a wave of 10:2 offense**.

After Ruan Erniu came out, the Eagles re-stabilized the morale of the army and pulled the score away again.

Erniu made 3 of 3 three-pointers and 4 of 4 free throws in this quarter, scoring 13 points and 12 double-doubles in a single quarter.

At the end of the first half, at 49:45, the Eagles' lead was just four points.

Nguyen Er Niu scored 21 points and 17 boards in the half, making him the player with the most points on the court.

In an interview in the midfield, the Celestial Empire reaffirmed: "We will win the finals tonight, and we can't wait to fly back to Atlanta with the championship trophy!"

The third quarter was the ultimate decisive battle that decided the fate of both sides, Kobe Bryant showed the best competitive state from the beginning, shooting 4 of 5 three-pointers in a single quarter, and it was also the best game for the Black Mamba outside since the start of the finals.

But Ruan Erniu still performed better than Kobe Bryant at a critical moment, and the Celestial Empire incarnated as a low-post projection machine in this quarter, and completely broke Andrew Bynum with only two sets of moves in a single quarter.

Hold the ball, back to the body, cut inside, step back, jump, shoot!

Ball-holding, basket-to-face, out-cut, step-back, jump-up, shot!

The road is simple, and the strongest offensive means should be the simplest and most efficient way to score.

8 of 10 shots in a single quarter, including 1 of 2 three-pointers, 9 of 9 free throws, Ruan Erniu scored 26 points in a single quarter, two days ago, Atlanta fans were still regretting Dragic's 23 points in a single quarter, and two days later, Ruan Erniu directly refreshed the NBA's highest single-quarter scoring record in the most direct way.

At 89:77, the Lakers had no way out, but the 12-point difference was still in front of them like a trench.

Ruan Erniu, who scored 47 points in the third quarter, held the possibility of attacking the new championship single-game record at the moment.

Woodson also fully created scoring conditions for Erniu, and after seeking Erniu's consent, Egghead decided to let Ruan Erniu start in the last quarter and play the entire fourth quarter.

The Los Angeles Lakers, who were unwilling to lose, persevered until the last second, and there was only one result, that is, the Lakers' celebrity, Baylor's record of 61 points in a single game in the Finals, finally failed to be kept.

Erniu continued his heroic performance in the first three quarters in the final quarter, shooting 6 of 9 in the final quarter, including 2 of 4 three-pointers and 2 of 2 free throws, and scored another 16 points.

With 63 points, 25 rebounds, and 4 assists, Ruan Erniu was replaced 50 seconds before the end, and the Hawks still maintained a 15+ lead at this time.

"Toot!"

Dick Bavita's whistle finally blew and the game was over, and the Hawks won G4 to win 4-0 overall over the Los Angeles Lakers.

They have completed the triple crown in a row, and the Eagles are officially established tonight!
