Chapter 780
With less than an hour left before the start of the game, all the Knicks players returned to the locker room after the warm-up. COM
Now these guys of the Knicks seem to be very silent, although they defeated the Lakers in the last game, but the strength of the Lakers is like a mountain, which makes them very stressed at the moment.
All the people present in the Knicks know very well that what the Lakers are experiencing now is a lesson from the past, as long as the Knicks encounter Waterloo in this game, then the situation of the Lakers in the last two days is the best portrayal of themselves!
The change of dynasty in the league is caused by the emergence of the Knicks, a team with many talented players. The doctrine of shooting a bird in the head is not a philosophy only in the East, and it is also true in the West.
Although there are many super teams in the league now, such as the Los Angeles Lakers, Detroit Pistons, Minnesota Timberwolves, New York Knicks, and Sacramento Kings, the eyes of the entire league are still focused on the Knicks, just because the players in their roster are the youngest.
Everybody's hoping that the Knicks will be unlucky, and everybody's thinking is about breaking up the Knicks before they can really start ruling the league.
The victory in the last game not only caused a wave of downfall of the Lakers in the American basketball circle on the other side of the ocean, but also set off a hurricane of wolves!
Those so-called experts and professors took out the bricks and slapped them at the Lakers, and at the same time began to exaggerate the Knicks threat theory.
Los Angeles is over!
The Knicks Wolf is coming!
The Galactic Battleship will be destroyed!
The Knicks will be invincible in the new season!
For a while, all kinds of hymn and rhetoric were shrouded in this young team that was ambitious and ready to start their own journey of conquest.
Back in the dressing room, all the players silently walked back to their places and sat down, all waiting, waiting for Lamar to step up and give them some instructions. Lamar is now like a church priest, allowing them to see their way forward again, and to rekindle the hope of victory in their hearts.
Lamar sat in the corner and silently brought all the equipment with him, the most important of which was of course the shoulder pads embroidered with the names of the four of them that Vanessa had given him yesterday.
When Lamar confirmed that he was ready, he finally stood up and slowly walked to the very center of the dressing room. Lamar first looked around, his gaze on each teammate's face for a few seconds, before he finally spoke.
"You don't have an answer at your feet! Look up, guys, look at me, I know that everyone was tired from the last game, but the reward was good, we won! Didn't you always hope that I could take you to victory?" Lamar's tone was very relaxed, and there was no doubt about his confidence.
All the Knicks players, even the team's head coach, Van Gundy, looked up at Lamar and looked at the leader, the soul, the king in their hearts.
"We had a good last game, although we seemed to be intimidated by the star-studded names of the Los Angeles Lakers before the game started, including me, of course! Haha, guys, there's nothing to be ashamed of. Isn't it proven that the seemingly mighty Lakers are nothing more than a paper tiger!"
"Of course, we have a lot of things to improve! We made a lot of mistakes in the game, and everybody, including me, has a lot to blame. The big lead in the opening game made us inevitably careless, and then we started to make mistakes that allowed the loverwoods to find their chances, and the game became anxious. At the end of the day, we were physically and mentally exhausted after winning the race!"
"Tonight, we're going to learn the lessons of the last game and make the Angelenos realize that the paper tigers are just paper tigers after all, and they will never be able to beat us! because we are stronger than them, and our players are better than them! The victory should be ours, the great Knicks. ”
Lamar's words made the oppressive atmosphere in the dressing room suddenly improve, and the fatigue caused by the two days of competition seemed to be swept away. The eyes of the players once again became hot, and the belief in winning was once again ignited in their hearts.
Seeing his teammates' hearts come alive again, Lamar smiled softly: "It seems that you still have hope for victory." But remember, there's only one chance! All we have to do now is hold him firmly in our hands and don't let him run away again. ”
Dampot was the first to jump up at this time in response to Lamar's call, shouting in support: "Lamar, we can do it now, let's go out and kick those Los Angeles guys in the ass!"
Lamar didn't seem very enthusiastic about Dampoter's aggressive declaration of invitation. Lamar shouted back at Dampott, "What I need is not for you to shout out, but for you to do it." Do you remember the ugliness you faced Shaq in the last game?Samuel, you have to do more in this game if you want us to trust you again!"
Dampotter took a deep breath, clenched his fist fiercely, and gritted his teeth, "Don't worry, Lamar! I haven't forgotten the shame that that fat man gave me in the last game." It's time for this game to settle down, and I have to let that guy know that he's been sitting on that throne for too long, and it's time to step down and make way for Xian!"
"It's almost time to play, so get ready for the New York Knicks. At this time, the on-site staff walked in, and when they saw Lamar, a look of excitement immediately flashed on the young man's face.
"Got it!"
Lamar didn't give the fan a chance to get close to him, and he doesn't have time to expand his fan base in Asia right now. What Lamar desperately wants to do now is to get out on the field and smash the Angelenes' ambitions. Like he just said, there is only one chance, and he must hold it firmly in his hands!
As he walked to the players' tunnel, Lamar stopped and waited for the DJ to call out his name. Lamar glanced a few times into the stands, and all he could see were fans wearing white No. 7 Knicks jerseys.
Obviously, with the victory in the last game, the Knicks' status in the hearts of Chinese fans has been further improved. The fans' confidence in the Knicks has grown even stronger, and they look forward to seeing Lamar once again give them their best performances.
"Now let's welcome the strongest god of war in the NBA, the bandit leader from the New York Knicks, and Lamar Odom, who has made the whole world crazy!"
As the DJ shouted, the lights dimmed instantly, and then all the light focused on the exit of the players' tunnel. The cheers of the fans at the scene also rang out, as if they had been discussed in advance, and everyone shouted Lamar's name in unison.
Kobe Bryant, who was in the player tunnel on the other side, was getting colder and colder at this time, and it was obvious that the DJ's sentence "the strongest god of war in the NBA" just now stimulated him.
"You'll know who's the strongest later!" Kobe Bryant said to himself with a grim gaze. Joe Johnson, who was beside him, could clearly feel the jealousy in Kobe's tone.
At this time, Lamar walked out, and the lights of the scene followed him until he reached the center of the court. Lamar just stood there in silence, not waving his arms in response to the cheers of the crazy fans, just standing silently in place, as if he was gathering strength to prepare for a big battle.
Then the Knicks players came out one after another, and then it was the turn of the Lakers players and the referees of the game. All the protagonists have stepped onto the stage, and the next thing is the main play.
"It's livelier here than Shanghai, I didn't expect you to be so popular here!" Dampott said to Lamar with a big grin.
Lamar chuckled and said to Dampoter, "If you want to be so popular, it's best to have Shaq's head under your feet at the end of this game." If you can do it, maybe the next time we come to China, the fans will be shouting your name, not me!"
"Why not?" said Dampot, looking at the roof of the arena with a look of reverie, it was clear that Lamar's words had stirred up a nerve for this simple idiot.
At this time, Kobe Bryant walked in the direction of Lamar, and looking at his face, he knew that he definitely did not come to show friendship.
"You deal with it yourself, that guy doesn't have a good face. Dampott whispered a whisper in Lamar's ear and turned away without a sense of justice.
"It's a nice atmosphere here, isn't it?" said Kobe Bryant as he walked up to Lamar and said suddenly.
Lamar was a little dazed, and didn't understand what Kobe Bryant meant for a while: "What do you want to say?"
Kobe Bryant looked around, and then said disdainfully: "Your popularity in China is so high, it seems that most of this place is for you." ”
Kobe's words made Lamar laugh dumbly, he didn't expect that Kobe, who has always felt cold and arrogant, would actually sulk over such a trivial matter: "Do you really mind?"
Kobe Bryant's face was gloomy, and he said with a sneer: "Mind? Do you think I really care about such a boring thing? What I care about is the result of this game, and I believe that when the game is over, I will stand in front of your fans and celebrate the victory!"
Lamar was not angry at all, but laughed, and even had an inexplicable thought in his heart, such Kobe Bryant is really cute.
