0621:[The Purple Gold Legion of Trapped Beasts]
When Jason Kidd transitioned to a positional shooter, Bryant didn't realize that times had changed.
When Allen Iverson was reduced to a bench at Auburn Hills Palace, Bryant didn't realize that times had changed.
When the Celtics' deliberate Big Three turned into a dream, Bryant still didn't realize that times had changed.
However, when Li Zhen raised his head and told him, "I am ready to rule the alliance!" ”
The black mamba's heart defense like an iron wall has loosened a little.
Although back in February, I heard this topic from the mouth of Michael Jordan.
At that time, he even gave blessings.
Rather than accepting LeBron James to seize power, he is more willing to accept Li Zhen's natural takeover of the scepter.
It's just that what he didn't expect was ...... This day came so quickly.
It seems that yesterday the Knicks were still the struggling fish belly in the lower half of the East, and today they are coming to the city, and the soldiers are prosperous, and they are unstoppable.
Is my time really going to turn around?
The Black Mamba asked himself, Iverson, the big four quarterback of the year, had become a substitute, Tracy Maddy was half a waste, and Vince Carter was no longer flying. Only you can stay in the center of the stage.
But now, Li Zhen actually came with a spear and a horse.
After all, the years are unforgiving!
Bryant pursed his lips and didn't speak again that night.
On the evening of the third day.
The Black Mamba is like a god descending from the heavens, and he unleashes all the energy of his body, leaving the whole world in amazement with his attacking skills.
He knows... Maybe never to go back to Stamps. Maybe there's no way to put the Lakers Finals logo on the floor of Staples Arena again.
So, he burned himself that night.
He scored 63 points on 24-of-35 shooting.
Break the NBA's all-time Finals scoring record.
Bryant pushed the scorer's glory to amazing heights once again.
However, in the end, he failed to take away a victory.
Li Zhen's steal at a crucial moment put an end to the Black Mamba's madness, and then a cold throw made Kobe Bryant's efforts throughout the game come to naught.
In the end, the difference was only 3 points.
In other words, the final defeat was only due to Derrick Fisher's failure to protect the ball.
The Lakers lost their penultimate offense, and the Knicks seized the opportunity to overtake.
Master duels, life and death have always been just a matter of a moment.
Bryant received a long cheer and shout from Staples Arena after the game, and Li Zhendu raised his hands to applaud him.
Tonight, Black Mamba is a well-deserved MVP.
He kept the last glory of the 96 golden generation.
He proved that the immortality of veterans is not a proverb, but a truth.
With 63 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, the Black Mamba was immortal tonight.
While the Knicks eventually won, Bryant earned respect. After the game, almost all the media reported on this record-breaking incident of Kobe.
In fact, there was a Finals loser MVP in the history of the Lakers, and he also broke the scoring record in the Finals that year.
Perhaps, it's just a reincarnation.
But, the glory has shifted to the East Coast.
The excitement of the New York fans rose to the extreme with a score of 2:0.
Lee Jin appeared in all corners of the city, and the ads supporting the Knicks even stormed Manhattan...... Once again, the Knicks are the heroes of the city's largest metropolis, and everyone, whether they follow basketball or not, is rejoicing in such a team that is fighting for the glory of the city.
Many East Coast rappers have included a nod to Knicks and Lee Shin in their lyrics.
Countless entertainment programs began to give the Knicks free publicity.
The charm of sports is endless.
Every Knicks player has enjoyed unprecedented respect and exposure.
They're going to be the heroes of the whole city after the finals, and they're making a lot of money, and there are already plenty of advertisers waving checks to the door.
Championship means fame and fortune, it means everything!!
James Dolan made a rare appearance in front of the media, and he finally showed a smile and stepped out of the shadow of Isaiah Thomas being forced away. But his speech was defined as dangerous and very unpleasant to his family.
He went so far as to tell New York TV: We have today, and we should not forget a man named Isaiah Thomas.
Draught does not forget to dig wells is a universal value.
However, from James Dolan's mouth, it is still strange after all.
Thankfully, there was no time to care about the complicated feelings between the boss and the general manager, and the expectations for the finals surpassed all else.
Tickets for the third Grand Final at Madison Garden were sky-high, proving that the Los Angeles upstarts were making their money with internet hairpins. But it's really more than wealth, it's the East Coast oldmoney.
When the grandstand tickets were sold to thousands of dollars...... People spend two weeks' wages only to see an ant-sized head, which shows how crazy New Yorkers are.
Interestingly.
During the finals, none of Li Zhen's rumored girlfriends came out to be demons, and they didn't even come to the scene to cheer.
They love Li Zhen too much.
They don't want to blur the focus.
Even if there is anything, it will have to be handled after the finals.
Giselle Bundchen even took the initiative to prohibit sexual intercourse, which made Li Zhen quite depressed, he is now used to that kind of life, and suddenly broke off, which is really unpleasant!
So, I can only vent my grievances in the game.
I have to say that the praise from the outside world and the good situation have made some young players drift.
They all felt that everything was too easy to come by, and this fed back directly into the game, and they showed nonchalance and even a little lack of respect for their opponents.
The Lakers are good teachers.
Kobe Bryant seized the opportunity and went to the death.
In the first quarter, the double-digit margin was instantly opened.
Li Zhen was furious at this time, he scolded little Jordan and cried in front of the global audience, and even asked him to run to the players' tunnel to do twenty push-ups.
This brutal corporal punishment has taught the world about Li Zhen's dominance over this team and that he is not just a playboy, he is also the absolute leader of a youth army.
Li Zhen's fury made the players immediately put away their contempt, and everyone became solemn and cautious.
Lee Jin also showed what it means to be a leader in the face of adversity, first hitting into the paint zone and stabilizing his position with a life-threatening layup. then led the team to stand on defense, stabilized the decline with an iron bucket-like defense, and even began to defend Kobe Bryant himself.
His exemplary role inspired the players and also made the home crowd even more boiling, and with the help of the home momentum, the team recovered the difference step by step, and finally maintained the lead until the end of the game.
The Knicks won their third game.
The Lakers were kicked to the edge of a cliff.
After the game, the excited Knicks fans were reluctant to leave for a long time, and they kept chanting Li Zhen's name just like the Lakers fans after the last game.
The MVP roared throughout Madison Garden Plaza.
Li Zhen has undoubtedly become a hero of New York City, and when it comes to basketball, Li Zhen's name must be mentioned.
Patrick Ewing sourly said, "I've never been treated like this in New York City."
Ewing is a tragedy, although he dedicated most of his life to the Knicks, but later in his career, he was still sold, which the Knicks hated to do, and also caused many stars to be reluctant to join New York. Moreover, Knicks fans have always disliked Ewing for being ugly...... It's ridiculous.
Of course, from this point of view, even if Knicks fans complain about Li Zhen for anything, it is impossible for them to complain about Li Zhen for being ugly, which is a fact that Hollywood first-line female stars have personally certified.
Unlike Patrick Ewing, the Knicks' other famous player, Fraser, who gave up the No. 10 jersey, has been ironclad: Bruce Lee has undoubtedly become the first player in Knicks history, and his position is unassailable. This is by no means the first championship he brought to New York, we will continue to win it on a back and no one can shake these kids!
Fraser is confident.
But no one said that he was arrogant, and even the reporters who were extremely keen to complain about Li Zhen before were meaningless about it, and even added fuel to it.
The Knicks' lineup is really, really strong!
As soon as I said this, I have to praise Isaiah Thomas for that bastard!
A few years ago, everyone called him a bastard, he was even a street rat in New York, but now, everyone sings about him, even if he and his boss do unethical things.
The business ability is really top!
"I didn't feel wronged, Bruce did the right thing."
Jordan Jr. calmly replied to reporters after the game: "I don't think it's a humiliation to me. I made mistakes on the pitch and he helped me fix them and I thank him from the bottom of my heart. I don't think I would have progressed so fast if it weren't for him! ”
Jordan Jr.'s attitude is very good, which leaves some media outlets trying to make waves have nothing to say.
In fact, the current Knicks are monolithic, and it is impossible to disintegrate from within.
Even Li Zhen began to feel that if he continued to fight like this, the dynasty was definitely not a dream.
……
The fourth game was fast in coming.
It was a rainy day, and the June rain cooled the hot New York city.
Even though the league didn't want the Finals to end there, they brought the championship trophy to the scene, and David Stern was dressed up in advance.
The Knicks Club also prepared a celebration ceremony.
Fireworks, streamers, and even a salute are in place.
This kind of fanfare is a strong boost to the morale of the Lakers, and interestingly, Trevor Ariza also made a comeback in this game.
By all indications, the Lakers are unwilling to accept the fate of being swept out.
The Knicks, on their part, are gearing up to accept the legend of winning the championship 16-0 for the first time in NBA history.
The young lads were rubbing their hands together excitedly even before the opening kick-off, and tonight was so important.
The psychological demands of both sides have formed the most significant contradiction since the beginning of the finals.
One side wants to sweep.
One side does not sweep.
Kobe Bryant sent a text message to Li Zhen before the game started: No one can sweep the Black Mamba out.
Li Zhen can ignore anyone's clamor or anyone's warning. But only Kobe Bryant's words made him feel like a great enemy.
Bryant had already proven in Game 2 that he had the ability to single-handedly shake up the Knicks' entire system, and Trevor Ariza also made an early comeback in this game, meaning that the Knicks will not be so easy to succeed on the wing.
Therefore, Li Zhen reminded his teammates very solemnly before the game, don't think about it overnight, don't think that the Lakers will definitely die. Kobe Bryant is not the kind of person who willingly gets caught with his hands tied, and he will definitely start the final madness!!
These words raised the vigilance of the players.
However, no one thought of it.
What a transformation Kobe Bryant accomplished in this game.
As two of the greatest breakups the NBA has ever made, the changes he made were... Become the point guard of the Lakers.
He personally stood on the front line to face Lee Jin, and he threw Derek Fisher, who had been blown up by Lee Zhen in the first three games, to the bench.
But that's not the most nerve-wracking thing.
The scariest thing is that he starts to run and bomb!
After playing for half his life, Kobe Bryant ran like Stephen, which changed the decline of the Lakers in the restricted area, and at the same time caught Li Zhen off guard.
The Knicks didn't react at all, and the Lakers bombarded indiscriminately.
"Over the years, you are not the only one who has stolen from me to learn the arts. I also learned a lot from you. ”
Bryant told Lee Jin before the start of the second quarter.
By this time, the Lakers had an 11-point lead.
The Knicks, who have been playing positional offense all season, are a little out of the corner.
Li Zhen fell into a lot of worry.
If the Lakers really win this game by a big score, the next three games will be extremely difficult.
At this moment, Li Zhen misses Swift and Richardson... I miss the players who used to run and bomb.
Now, it's impossible for the Knicks to go back to the run-and-gun route.
Because of the biggest advantage of the Knicks' interior line, Gasol Jr., Randolph and Jordan Jr. are not suitable for running and shooting. And if you replace Eddie Griffin and Yi Jianlian, you will definitely not be able to resist the Lakers.
In the second quarter of the game, the Knicks played steadily, and Li Zhen hit the restricted area several times and finally stabilized the situation.
Before halftime, they trailed by only 14 points.
But this score seems like an insurmountable chasm.
Who would have thought that Kobe Bryant would run and shoot.
Moreover, he really doesn't stick to the ball, and he is extremely decisive with the ball. With his blessing, Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom have all played their own strengths.
Nix is gone!
Back in the dressing room, all the players were silent.
Especially the young lads.
Jamilin was very anxious at the moment, he finally realized his shallowness, and both he and Stevens were helpless.
Li Zhen paced back and forth in the middle of the locker room.
He tried to grab something.
He has been thinking about how to break the game, he seems to have some ideas, but they are not clear.
Finally, just as his head was about to hit the door, Eddie Griffin's alert woke him up.
That's right!
That is true.
He thought of a foolproof solution!!
It turns out that the way to crack it is so simple.
