Chapter 780: Tearing, Declaration, Fighting
"We're not going to fall in the same place a second time, and the Lakers will definitely win this year's championship!" Kobe Bryant, who has been relatively low-key throughout the season, finally made a victory declaration in the early stages of the Finals.
The familiar Mamba is back, and if you don't have full confidence and desire to win, then Kobe Bryant is not Kobe.
However, if it sounds good, it is called faith, and if it is not good, it is paranoia.
Although the people of the United States believe that paranoia will succeed in this set, from another point of view, this is not much different from the second disease.
One side opened its mouth, and now it was the other's turn to speak.
"Our goal hasn't changed since the beginning of the season, Kobe Bryant is certainly qualified to say his opinion, but it's just his opinion, and in a few days, we will prove everything with the game," Nguyen said in an interview. ”
If the dialogue between the leaders of the two teams is restrained, then the other players of the two teams are not necessarily so polite.
Lunar Eclipse said sarcastically: "I don't think the Lakers will cause us any trouble in the Finals, we are a team with 75 wins and 34 consecutive wins, even the Lakers with Wilt Chamberlain and Jerry West will not be able to beat us, let alone the current Lakers!"
This kind of thing, once it starts, will not end easily.
As soon as the lunar eclipse was finished here, Lamar Odom stood up and said: "Some people hold the thighs of historical players and think that they are also players of the same level, I think a certain defensive second team is not qualified to evaluate Chamberlain and West." ”
As soon as the lama finished his opinion, Jamal Crawford stood up and said: "I don't understand why a team that hasn't won a championship for many years feels good about a team that has just completed two consecutive championships and is about to complete a dynasty, or whether the Los Angeles Lakers' championships have always been spewed out of their mouths." ”
Ke 6 is the Hawks who only joined this season, so Ron Artest, who also joined this season on the Lakers' side, stood up and said: "Compared with history, the Lakers currently have 14 championships, while the Hawks only have 3, and Atlanta, who only won the second championship trophy after 40 years, what qualifications do they have to say Lakers?"
"Did the Lakers really win the championship with their mouths? Does the history of the Lakers have anything to do with the current Lakers? Our two championships were won by ourselves. ”
"Atlantans have always been hillbillies without a background, and they don't have the same humor as gentlemen. ”
"Are the Lakers humorous? They're just posturing. They just can't win us, let the facts do the talking. ”
……
"Fxxx, do the Eagles think they've won a championship? ”
"Sxxxx, the Lakers are a bunch of losers, and they can't be happy for a few days. ”
……
The tearing has continued from the media to the Internet, and the words have become more and more difficult to get on the table.
When most people are young, they always think that the truth will become clearer and clearer, and when they grow up, they realize that people can never be convinced.
People will never change their preconceived notions unless they are really facing failure.
Instead of trying to convince the other person, turn around and do what you love.
After a lot of verbal talk, the Los Angeles Lakers arrived in Atlanta on June 3.
The Hawks have been rested for nearly a week, and the Lakers have been given three precious days off after the Western Conference finals.
The 09-10 season is finally coming to an end, and on the night of G1 of the finals, the entire Philips Center was once again full.
Fans around the world are focused on the city, with a population of only around 400,000, whether the Hawks will build their own dynasty in a few days, or will the Los Angeles Lakers make a comeback and reach the top of the NBA again?
The on-site commentary combination sent by the imperial court station this time was Yu Jia and Zhang Lili, Ruan Erniu came to the museum early to practice shooting, and by the way, he also accepted an interview with the imperial court.
"Erniu, how are you going to defend Kobe Bryant tonight?" asked Yu Jia.
Erniu smiled: "We didn't have a special defense for Kobe, the Lakers were able to stand out from the West because of their overall strength."
Kobe Bryant is a superstar, but we're going to defend the entire Lakers, and I personally have to get Bynum right. ”
Zhang Li asked again: "What else have you been doing in the past week besides training?"
"I watched the Lakers with my teammates and analyzed their tactical set-up, and I also went to golf twice with Joe, Josh, and Claw. Ruan Erniu replied.
"Who won?" said Yu Jia with a smile.
"It's basically me and Joe, so we're the ones who treat the most guests too!"
There are words in Erniu's words, in fact, the subtext should be that we are rich in golf, but according to political correctness, the court will never interpret this deep meaning.
The big battle is imminent, and the Hawks leader seems very relaxed, but in the Lakers' warm-up half, Kobe Bryant has a serious face, and the injury of his broken right hand is always a hidden danger.
Although all kinds of Comi who ignore the facts are a group of extremely annoying guys, the guy who pretends to be injured in the black Kobe is not much better, which guy who eats by shooting will deliberately pretend to be forced on the stage of the finals with a white bandage tied to his index finger?
More than two seasons ago, that is, when Erniu first entered the league, Kobe Bryant still praised Ruan Erniu, a young player who became famous in UCLA, and even before Gasol joined the Lakers, he had taken the initiative to recruit.
But with Erniu leading the Hawks to victory over the Lakers in the finals of the 07-08 season, Kobe Bryant never said anything like that again, the rookie suddenly became a bird of prey, and Kobe automatically classified Erniu as a target who must be defeated.
Interestingly, although the two have become mortal enemies in the eyes of the media, in fact, the two do not have much intersection in the alliance, and there are even few tearing incidents.
If it weren't for the finals, these two wouldn't even be scolding each other in front of the media.
After the warm-up of the two sides, after the routine mat performance and the national anthem of the United States, the names of the Lakers' starters were shouted one by one in the deep voice of the live DJ at the Philips Center.
The Lakers' starting lineup for this game is:
C Andrew Bynum
P.F. Pau Gasol
SF Ron Artest
SG Kobe Bryant
PG Derek Fisher
And on the Lakers' bench, there are also Lamar Odom, Sasha Vujacic, Jordan Farmar, Shannon Brown, Luke Wharton, Josh Powell and others.
After the Lakers, the curtain fell on the dark and the sound of passionate music was heard, and the audience heard a melody from the German melodic metal band Equilibrium's "MANA", and at the same time, a wonderful clip of the Hawks generals appeared on the big screen.
The domineering dunk of a lunar eclipse, Crawford's juggling dribble, and the exaggerated celebratory gesture of flying after a successful birdman's block......
Immediately after Ruan Erniu turned into a giant, the music also reached the first small climax, and while Erniu in the picture held the ball in both hands, he stepped on the ground heavily, directly cracking the earth, and causing a terrifying earthquake......
THE EDITING CONTINUES, SALMON GOES TO THE BASKET AND GLIDES THE LEVER TO GET THE SHOT, THE CLAW MACHINE BREAKS THE BALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE COURT AND THROWS THE HALF-COURT DUEL, AND THE EMBARRASSMENT CONTINUES TO CROSSOVER TO THE DEFENDER IN FRONT OF HIM AND HITS A STEP-BACK SHOT......
Accompanied by the music tune, people seemed to have entered the unknown deep forest, Ruan Erniu walked out of the shadows again, holding the ball in one hand with his left hand, holding his left elbow with his right hand, and tilting his head very arrogantly and saying: "E're-Dynasty-team!" (We are a dynasty team!)
The gorgeous opening ceremony, thinking back to the 07-08 season, the Celtics did something similar in the Eastern Conference finals.
Accompanied by the shocking music "Requiem-for-a-Dream" (Requiem-for-a-Dream), the big screen first reviewed the highlights of the previous shows, and then the wolf king roared in the middle of the game, the scene continued, and finally Pierce shouted: "let-me- be-hero!"
Two years on, the Eagles are doing even better this time because they are shouting their slogan straight out – a dynasty team.
In modern basketball, it's hard enough to defend a title, let alone make it three in a row, and the Atlanta Hawks are getting infinitely closer to that great goal.
Subsequently, the DJ on the scene read the Hawks substitutes with enthusiastic voices: Patrick Mills, Sun Yue, Steve Novak, Chris Anderson, Zaza Pachuria, Jamal Crawford, Mike Bibby.
Then, it was naturally the turn of the main players of the Eagles: Claw Machine, Salmon, Lunar Eclipse, Embarrassment, and Erniu appeared one after another, and when Ruan Erniu appeared on the court as the absolute core of the team, the fans in the stadium cheered like a tsunami.
At the end of the opening ceremony, the main players of both sides came to the court, and as the referee Ken Moore threw the basketball high, the game officially began!
Andrew Bynum is above Erniu in height and arm span, but the first to touch the basketball is the Celestial Empire who has a stronger bounce speed.
Dragic got the basketball in the backcourt and advanced the half court with the ball.
The eclipse immediately raised the cover, but the claw machine was shaky, did not use the block, and directly burst into the penalty area from the other side of Fisher.
The Lakers' overall defense was too late, Gasol was taken away by the lunar eclipse, Bynum was entangled by Erniu again, and the claw machine made an easy layup and hit the first shot after the opening.
Fisher dribbled the ball past half court and put the ball in the hands of Kobe, who in turn sent the ball to Gasol on the flank, and the Spaniard ran without stopping the ball and moved the ball directly into the box......
Gasol's most important role in the triangular offensive system is the fulcrum, and his ability to respond is far from what his average assists per game can reflect, but this goal is ......
"Whoosh!"
A white jersey flew high and grabbed Bynum in the low post to intercept the basketball in the air.
Gasol obviously underestimated Erniu's prediction and jumping ability, this ball was replaced by a general inside line, and he might have already watched Bynum behind him complete the empty catch, but Ruan Erniu was able to take a step ahead and break the ball.
When Erniu broke the ball and landed, Bynum was still in the stage of lift-off, and when Anzhu landed, Erniu had already held the ball to the frontcourt.
4VS5 in the frontcourt, Pau Gasol had to go up to save Erniu's three-pointer, but the Lakers didn't dare to let go of Ruan Erniu's shot, and countless teams in the league have paid a heavy price.
"Whew!"
Ruan Erniu did not force his shot, but suddenly sent a direct pass, the lunar eclipse fell from the sky, and the windmill was violently dunked.
TIME-OUT!
Phil Jackson didn't hesitate to call a timeout, and after the opening game, the Hawks were on both ends of the floor, clearly one step ahead of the Lakers.
Or rather, the Hawks' offensive options were out of KFC's pre-game set-up.
Neither the Hawks' first point of attack, Nguyen Er Niuh, nor their second point of attack, Joe Johnson, became the defending champions' offensive options at the start of the game.
On the contrary, Dragic and Josh Smith have been quite eye-catching on the offensive end, which is not good news for the Lakers.
After the timeout, Bryant continued to hold the ball on the outside side on the Lakers' side, Derrick Fisher ran back from the wing with Bynum's cover, and the defense of the claw machine was not far from Chairman Fish, but the old fish still forced back and hit a 20-foot 2-pointer.
After a poor performance in last year's playoffs, this year's old fish's shooting touch has recovered significantly in the playoffs, and when facing non-speed guards, with the Lakers' interior advantage, Lao Yu is still a qualified starter.
But unfortunately, what Chairman Yu is facing today is a claw machine, and his assault ability is not weak at all.
The Hawks possessed the ball, Dragic went down again with the help of Erniu's blocking, An Zhu and Lao Yu took care of each other, and pounced on Ruan Erniu on the outside at the same time, as a result, Dragic took a big change of direction in Europe, and went directly to the basket for two more points.
The Hawks did an excellent job of planning this game, and Woodson guessed from the beginning that the Lakers would defend Erniu and Misery.
After the opening, whether it was Erniu's low-level bag clamp, or Artest's tough defense against Embarrassment, it proved the judgment of the egg head.
But the overall offensive ability of the Eagles is obviously underestimated, or Ruan Erniu's brilliance alone has overshadowed the offensive talent of the whole team.
As long as you don't waste your investment, the current lunar eclipse that focuses on the inside line can serve as the absolute core of the inside line for any weak team, and even have a chance to win 20+10 data.
A pick-up like Salmons could also be a leader on the team if he went to the right team, and in fact, he was treated like the heart of the team for a while with the Kings.
As for Goran Dragic, the fast-paced sophomore is the most promising presence to become a team's core point guard.
At 26:33, the Hawks led the opponent by 7 points to end the first quarter of the game, and Dragic scored a single-quarter high 11 points, 2 assists, and 2 rebounds, and was the most beautiful player on the court.
At the same time, he and Yu Sen also caused two fouls in the first quarter of the old fish who couldn't keep up with the speed, and directly let Chairman Yu go out of the game early.
The second quarter of the game started quickly, and as soon as Jamal Crawford came up, he was chased and intercepted by the Lakers.
Vujacic and Shannon Brown rotated to wear Crawford, and the K6 didn't find his touch on the finals stage for the first time, and after hitting two irons in a row, he sent the ball to Mike Bibby.
Bibi faced the young Jordan Famar, but did not hesitate, facing Famal is to force a breakthrough, relying on the advantage of physical strength, carrying the opponent into the penalty area, and then facing Luke Wharton's supplementary defense, still relentlessly stepped forward to find a confrontation.
"Bang!"
Bibby threw the basketball in his hand while being knocked to the ground, but unfortunately it didn't score, but it still caused damage to the Lakers.
Looking at Bibby playing this season, you will almost forget that this old guy still has the ability to break through, but when it comes to the finals, the White Devil finally shows his hideous side.
Even if Bibby took the initiative to give the starter to Claw Machine this season and made concessions on the contract extension, but behind all this, it all stems from his desire for a championship.
And the Los Angeles Lakers have always been the opponent that former Kings veteran Bibby is most eager to win, if it weren't for Erniu to stop, Bibby even wanted to risk the early end of his career to play the Lakers in the finals of the 07-08 season.
The White Devils are surprisingly tough, and some veterans have always shown their worth when people are about to forget about them.
The Lakers failed to find a cheap time in the rotation, but instead allowed the Hawks to play a wave of 8:2, which once again widened the score gap.
After that, both teams sent their main players on the field.
Ruan Erniu and Kobe Bryant began to increase their ball-handling offense respectively, while Gasol and Awkward also shared the task of second scoring point well.
The two sides have come and gone, each with its own performance, but the score gap between the two teams has not changed much significantly.
The first half of the game officially ended when Gasol missed the last shot after he drew a foul from beyond the three-point line and made three free throws at the end of the first half.
50:65, the Lakers did not do too badly on the offensive end, but the Hawks' offensive ability did make it difficult for the Lakers to parry, Ruan Erniu scored 14 points and 12 boards in the half, but his score could only rank third on the team, and the claw machine with 18 points and the embarrassed Sen with 16 points were ranked in front of him.
Not only did KFC feel bad, but even Ruan Erniu felt a little inappropriate.
The morale of my teammates is a little high!
If it goes on like this, it is indeed not a big problem for Erniu to win three consecutive championships, but the FMVP trophy may not necessarily belong to anyone!
ESPN's commentators were Jeff Van Gundy, Mike Brin and Yang Yi, oh no, it was Stephen A. Smith.
Jeff Van Gundy was the first to speak: "Stephen, I know you must want to say something about LeBron James, so you go ahead and say it first." (Stephen A. Smith was fond of Black James.) )
Mi Guo Yang Yi shook his head and said: "No, I want to talk about this game now, talk about Kraft Nguyen." ”
Mike Brin on the side laughed, "What do you say?"
Mi Guo Yang Yi said seriously: "If he wins the third championship trophy with the Atlanta Eagles, then he is likely to return to big cities such as New York and Los Angeles in the future."
If I were the owner of the Eagles, I would definitely trade him away next year, otherwise the team would suffer a big loss because of the unconditional loss of the core. ”
Mike Brin looked surprised, looking at A Smith's confident expression, and didn't know if what he said was true or not, but Van Gundy Jr. reacted faster, and immediately asked, "Where did you hear this news?
Stephen A. Smith said more confidently: "He will definitely do it, because Atlanta is not a city where he can maximize his business value!"
