Chapter 1031
The Knicks want to continue to build on their success and make this season look even better.
The Lakers are trying to rewrite their own swept fate.
The battle of real swords and guns became the main theme of the last quarter of the game.
At this time, it would be really stupid if there were any reservations.
Like Van Gundy, Jackson also fielded the strongest lineup he could take. Although the Lakers have nothing to do with him after this game, as the head coach of a team and a well-known head coach in the NBA, Phil still has the minimum work ethic. Now all he wants is to stand on the last shift, and although he knows that it will be a bit difficult, at least he wants to fight again before the game is over.
Of course, the person who doesn't want to lose the most now is Kobe Bryant, his self-esteem and his pride do not allow him to be swept by his opponent on the stage of the finals. In a situation like the one the team is now, he definitely doesn't want it to happen. What's more, standing across from him was Lamar Odom, whom he hated the most.
"Pass, pass!" Bryant kept shouting at his teammates, cheering himself up while boosting his teammates' morale. He couldn't let his breath come down first, absolutely not, and even if he fell, he wouldn't choose this way.
Breakout, shooting, Kobe Bryant has begun to develop in the direction of Marbury, the lone wolf! The discouraged performance of his teammates has made the Black Mamba gradually lose confidence, and now all that remains is to keep fighting until his energy runs out.
In Kobe's heart, he thinks so, even if he can't save the defeat alone, he has to do his best to fight to grab it, even if he falls, he has to choose the most tragic way.
Bryant's sudden madness didn't change the trend on the court today. In front of the entire Knicks team, which is united towards the championship, Kobe's efforts alone seem futile and pale.
Although the once invincible duo of Kobe and O'Neal can now stir up a small splash or two in the monstrous waves of the Knicks, it still can't change the trend of the game.
Kobe Bryant, who went crazy, did not change the outcome of the game, but changed the mentality of a person on the court. That's Lamar, after Kobe Bryant went crazy, people once again saw what it means to be an offensive ghost.
Kobe Bryant broke through to score a layup, Lamar immediately returned the color with a slam dunk; Kobe Bryant hit a three-point shot from the outside, and Lamar would also put a gun on the outside line at the first time; Kobe Bryant made the opponent foul, and Lamar, who had long been the pride of the Lakers, would immediately start his plan to expel the opposing player.
The two sides once again worked hard, did not give in to each other, and you came and fought in one place. Often, after one side has scored, the other team will return the color at the first time.
"There's no suspense in this game anymore!" Bill Wharton leaned on Charles Barkley's body and commented with a relaxed expression. It looks like he's already preparing lines to celebrate the Knicks' championship after the game.
"The Lakers don't want to win anymore, and probably Kobe Bryant's black mamba thinks the same way. There is no point in continuing this game, and now I think everyone can enjoy this drama between the Black Mamba and the New York bandit in a relaxed mood. ”
"Yes, let me see, so far, Lamar has scored 35 points, Kobe Bryant is 39, and there is still a four-point gap between the two sides. Now it seems that there is still suspense about who will have the last laugh in the battle between the two of them. ”
In fact, judging from the heart, Kobe's performance in this game has been called very good. The game is in this situation, on the one hand, because Kobe Bryant met Lamar, the most powerful opponent in his life, and of course, the most important thing is that the Lakers themselves have problems.
Rick Fox, an important substitute, went impotently after the first quarter of the game and didn't have the guts to try until now. The few open shots in the second half also turned into rebounds for the Knicks.
Not to mention Joe Johnson, who has been used to being invisible on the court since the beginning of the Finals. Except for the occasional sudden appearance on the outside and telling people that they are, most of the time it is like sleepwalking.
And Gary Payton and Carl Malone, two old guys who are really old.
Gloves have long been yesterday's yellow flowers, in addition to organizing offense, outside shooting is a mess!
The old postman is also gone, his speed is slow, his fitness is declining, he is riddled with injuries, and even his good mid-range jumper is becoming less and less of a crosshair. It is believed that the position of Lakers power forward will be gradually replaced by Luis Scola next season.
Only O'Neal's performance can still be slightly satisfied.
Defensively, although he is not necessarily much better than Karl Malone against Lamar, at least in terms of offense, the Big Sharks can still step up from time to time and beat the Knicks' major interior lines.
Despite the many downsides, Bryant still wants to prove himself, and he wants people to know that he is no worse than Lamar. It's just that the God he believes in didn't give him this opportunity.
When he landed after an attack, Bryant fell and couldn't get up. There was no scream, not even because of the painful struggle, Kobe Bryant just fell to the ground with his legs in his arms and said nothing, which made the Lakers team doctor Gary Verdi who came to treat him a little helpless.
Looking at the fallen Kobe, Lamar sighed slightly in his heart. He knew that this game was over, and without the opponent's game, there was no obstacle to the Knicks' victory.
When Kobe Bryant was carried out, the Knicks fans at the scene seemed very quiet. Everyone's eyes are focused on Kobe Bryant's face with his eyes closed, although because of the camp, the fans here hate this black mamba, but people have to admit that Kobe Bryant is indeed a fighter. Even if the Lakers lost in the end, he did everything he did worthy of all the Los Angeles fans.
"Toot!"
The final whistle blew and an orange basketball was thrown high into the air by Lamar.
The scene suddenly boiled like boiling oil that had been poured water.
The fans closest to the stadium couldn't wait to rush in, and the Knicks players couldn't hold back their excitement, and they all charged in the direction of Lamar, and then everyone hugged each other tightly.
"Champions! We are champions!" said Dampot, a Haitian who was still making fun of Mark Jackson's tears just now, and his face was already full of tears at this time. Dampoter shouted hoarsely, the jersey on his body had already been removed by himself, he needed to vent, he needed to vent hard.
Anderson hugged Lamar tightly, and tears flowed down his cheeks. Compared to the last time he won the championship with the Lakers, he is obviously more excited now.
After one of the darkest moments of his life, Birdman now cherishes his time on the pitch more than anyone else. Winning the championship in his first season back in the NBA made the unruly Birdman almost like a child.
"Lamar, thank you! Thank you really!" Anderson didn't know what to say other than thank you, just kept shouting in Lamar's ear. In his most difficult time, it was Lamar, a good brother, who helped him, and this kindness made him unforgettable for the rest of his life.
Mark Jackson was also excited to find every teammate and offer his hug. He wants to thank everybody, every Knicks player. It was thanks to these teammates that he was able to taste the joy of a championship before the end of his career.
In the VIP seats, it has become a sea of celebration at this moment.
The Knicks' owner, Mr. James Dolan, has now also become a kid who gets his favorite candy. The Armani suit on his body had been taken off by him, and he held it in his hand and waved it constantly, and his mouth kept shouting loudly: "Champions, champions, we are champions! champions! we are champions!"
Next to Dolan, the management of the Knicks, Mr. Dolan's son Dolan Jr., also jumped up and down excitedly. He loved the Knicks no less than his father, and although there was a certain disagreement between father and son on the issue of Lamar, it now seemed that the elder Dolan was right.
It is precisely because of Lamar that the Knicks can finally stand on the throne of the championship.
Dolan and his son were so happy that they got carried away, but David Stern's face was not so good-looking.
The thought of going out to present the Knicks gang of bandits later, and the O'Brien Trophy going to be passed to Lamar's bastard from his own hand, made Stern's heart feel uncomfortable.
"Mr. President, we should now go down and prepare to present the new championship!" Adam Silva, who had been promoted to Stern's special assistant, walked over and whispered in Stern's ear.
Stern was already very awkward in his heart, and when he heard Silva's words, he frowned dissatisfiedly: "I don't need you to remind me, of course I know! Hell! I feel uncomfortable at the thought of shaking hands with that guy later!"
Silva always had a smile on his face: "Mr. President, you shouldn't show what you think at this time. You know that now that the eyes of the whole world are on this, you should be very friendly with Lamar, and I don't think you want the scandal of the alliance to appear on the pages of the newspapers!"
David Stern took a deep breath, as an old man who has been in the alliance for decades, of course he thinks about these things, but some authorities are just confused.
"Alright! Let's go!"
Seeing that the boss had spoken, the league staff quickly contacted the staff at Madison Field to prepare for the award ceremony in a while.
By this time, the center of the Madison Arena was completely chaotic, and more and more fans rushed into the stadium, and everyone, whether they knew each other or not, was all hugging each other.
As a loser, Bryant just glanced at it from a distance and left, he didn't want to stay, just because he didn't want to make himself envious, or rather, jealous. 2k reading web
