Chapter 484: I Can Accept Failure, But I Can't Accept Giving Up!

"The Lakers are finished."

"Bryant and Shaq played well, but that's about it."

"Shaq under Michael's crotch is like a panicked child."

G3 ended with the Bulls taking the lead.

At this time, the comments in the media were already one-sided.

There are people who support the Lakers, but no one is optimistic that the Lakers will win the series.

Even the overwhelming majority of media commentators don't think the Lakers will be able to win the next game. The Bulls will win four games in a row to win the championship.

Michael Jordan was crowned a god in one battle, with 5 championships in hand, and he scored 75 points in a single game in the finals, which is enough to win the honor of the first person in history, the god of basketball.

And the Los Angeles Lakers, who serve as the background board, will also go down in history as the losing side.

Michael Jordan's performance shocked everyone, and the media has now selectively ignored his black material, such as gambling, beating up teammates, playing baseball, etc., etc.

Now Jordan is a perfect god in the eyes of the media!

An invincible god who dominates everything on the basketball court!

...

The day before the G4 game, Lakers players practiced shooting with a small amount of activity in the training gym.

The Lakers' players are a little sluggish.

Losing two games in a row, there are players on the opposite side who are almost impossible to beat.

My team and stars have played very well, but it is still difficult to win.

And Kobe Bryant is not the kind of leader who talks a lot, he prefers to lead the team with action rather than pouring chicken soup. O'Neal is a boyish player himself, so don't expect him to inspire the team.

When Jerry West learned about the situation, he immediately showed up at the Lakers' training ground.

"Do you see what they say about us?"

"They all said we're finished."

"We're going to lose."

"We'll be crushed by the Bulls in five games to settle the fight."

"They're farting!"

The suave Jerry West exploded.

"We have the best center in the league! We have the best rookie in the league! We also have a whole bunch of the best players! ”

"We are Zijin Lake people, and we will never give up!"

"Look at your jerseys and think if you're fit to wear him. The purple and gold jersey carries countless honors, and I feel that I will not bear cowardice. ”

"The Lakers will be proud of you one day, and before that day comes, you're going to face a lot of trouble! The same goes for the Lakers' predecessors, do you know how old I was when I won my first championship? 34 years old! ”

"Boys, never be afraid of failure! Face your fears and conquer them! ”

"I believe that one day not far away, Los Angeles will establish a dynasty again."

...

June 8, 1997, Great Western Forum Arena.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen~ This is the G4 of the American Professional Basketball Finals brought by NBC! I'm Elvin Johnson. ”

"Good evening! I'm Mafu. ”

"This is our special guest – Anfernee Hardaway! Penny, say hello to everyone. ”

"Good evening, everyone, and it's a pleasure to bring you today's commentary.

"The Lakers' players showed up on the court in turn, and their fighting spirit looked high."

After the words of the Lakers' godfather Jerry West, the Lakers' momentum was lifted.

Bryant is still grateful that Jerry West was able to do these things.

"It looks like their morale hasn't been affected by the last game."

"I heard that Jerry West showed up in the Lakers' training gym."

"The Lakers are in a desperate situation, and this game can be said to be a win-and-can-lose. Behind them is an abyss, and as long as they lose, they are finished. ”

"Penny, do you think the Lakers still have any hope of winning the championship?"

"I think there are still some of them, Kobe Bryant and Shaq are both players who can do miracles, and isn't it because of his uncertainty that basketball is so wonderful?"

...

β€œONE TWO THREE! CHAMPION! The Lakers players gathered around and roared.

"Let's fall on the corpses of the enemy!"

"Never give up! Beat yourself! ”

GAME 4!

War!

"Hey, boy. You look very motivated. Michael Jordan chewed gum and folded his hands on his hips.

"Old fellow, you guys look energetic too." Bryant smiled.

"Hey, haven't you given up yet? You don't want to win, do you? Jordan's eyes widened, feigning surprise.

"Give up? I can accept failure, but I can't accept giving up. ”

"Boy, you know I said that."

"That's right, return it as it is."

Michael Jordan smiled, what a look. This little guy is really like himself.

He has defeated countless legendary outside stars, magicians, smiling assassins, gliders... But there has never been a player who has the same willpower as him, and often after only a few games, they are tortured and given up by themselves.

Jordan's style of play is so explosive and destructive. He will make people despair.

This is also the origin of the old saying - Jordan never grabs seven!

So far in his career, Michael Jordan has never played a tie-break.

And after Kobe Bryant's perfect performance for two games, his spirit has not changed at all.

No, it should be said that the fighting spirit is even hotter.

It's all too rare.

Such willpower: Michael Jordan has never been seen anywhere outside the mirror.

is the only player like this who can arouse Jordan's desire to perform.

The stronger the spirit! The more intense the thrill of destroying him.

The greater the victory, the greater the opponent.

"Let me see where your faith comes from."

...

"It's game on! The Lakers have adjusted their lineup again. The magician was surprised.

"What? They put Ben Wallace on the starting line-up! ”

"Kobe, Jones, Bowen, Big Ben, Shaq."

"It's the Lakers' strongest defensive system, but the offensive space of this system is poor."

"Kobe Bryant and Shaq will be crazy about Rodman."

"But it's also time for change, and it's impossible to lose two games in a row and continue to score like Jordan."

Penny guessed: "The Lakers should be letting Bowen defend Michael alone, and Big Ben is crazy to help defend the sniper Bulls." ”

"On the defensive end, it's understandable that such a defensive system will indeed have a better limiting effect on the Bulls' offense, but what about the offense?"

"Shaq's offensive space will be blocked, and he can't score more than 30 points in this game. Then the Lakers' offensive pressure is all on Kobe. ”

"Could it be... Harris intends to let Kobe Bryant fire infinitely in this game? ”

"Possibly! Critical Battle! A bold choice! Harris put the key to the team's victory on Kobe Bryant at this time! ”
