James, a little skeptical of life.

However, he remained confident in his post-match press conference.

"What are you looking forward to this season? Win a playoff game? ”

It's still the familiar smell of Los Angeles reporters.

"That's what we're going to do next, but I'm aiming for more than that, and I'm still looking forward to winning the championship."

James' answer surprised everyone.

After two heavy defeats, James was still expecting ...... The overall winner?

It sounds a little incredible.

"Championship?"

The reporter confirmed to James.

James nodded, and in the next second said another classic quote of his own.

"If you don't believe you can win a championship, there's no need to play in the NBA!"

This sentence, like the words after the last game, is sonorous and powerful.

People, when they are in a difficult situation, are very easy to have a sense of life.

Therefore, most of the great poets of ancient times were depressed.

James, when the situation is unfavorable, is also a frequent golden sentence.

This is, to develop in the direction of poets and philosophers.

The good news is that the next two games will be played on the Nuggets' home court.

The Nuggets' plateau home court is a well-known devil's away game in the NBA.

Its altitude is not as exaggerated as that from Tibet, but under the high-intensity and fierce confrontation, it is enough to affect the performance of the athletes.

This is a big advantage that must not be ignored for the Nuggets, who have been playing on the plateau for a long time.

So before the start of Game 3 of the series, when TNT conducted a series analysis, Kenny Smith felt that the Nuggets had a chance to win a series.

"I know Shaq, that guy's weight can't support him to play the whole game in that kind of place, and his playing time will be shortened."

Kenny Smith, a former Houston champion, is still very professional when analyzing problems.

But Barkley on the side didn't think so.

"The Lakers don't have to play the whole game because the game is going to be decided in three quarters."

And Barkley's words made Kenny Smith unable to argue for a while.

In the last two games, it seems that this is indeed the case.

"I still think the Nuggets can win one game."

Still, Kenny Smith stuck to his point.

"Kenny, they still have a grandson!"

Barkley seconds cut "Sun Blow".

This made Smith laugh out loud.

Barkley, there's really no one left.

After a day of rest, the Lakers boarded a plane to Denver.

On the plane, Barkley sat next to Sun Hao.

"I hate playing in that kind of place, it's so uncomfortable."

O'Neill grumbled rarely.

Sun Hao can understand that fat people don't like to stay on the plateau very much.

Altitude sickness is different for everyone, but one thing is certain, the fatter the body, the greater the reaction.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

But Sun Hao still said with a smile.

O'Neill was stunned for a moment.

Well, that damn Jordan vibe is here again.

It was the first time he had heard someone say this to him, and he didn't really want to refute it.

If it were someone else, he would definitely reply with a reply.

"Lao Tzu is Shaq, Lao Tzu needs you?"

But because the person who spoke was Sun Hao, he felt that there was nothing wrong with him.

The next night, Game 3 of the series kicked off at Pepsi Center, home in Denver.

Denver's home attendance has always been high, and it has been hard to find a ticket since James joined.

The crowd scene is no worse than the Staples Center.

During the pre-game warm-up, James brought the players together.

"It's our home stadium, for ourselves and for our fans, to defend our home stadium!"

Well, the Zhan poet is online again.

These words also made the Nuggets players feel excited.

James, not the so-called Pippen, has always been a qualified leader.

After the opening ceremony, the two teams started one after another.

James was the last to appear.

He walked over to the technical desk and applied some magnesium powder to his hands as usual.

This is also something that NBA players basically do, magnesium powder can increase the coefficient of friction and reduce the loss of the ball due to excessive sweating in the game.

Just as he was painting, James suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind.

He felt he had to do something to boost the morale of the team.

He picked up the bottle of magnesium powder and poured a large handful into his hand.

There were many spectators in front of the technical desk, and James's unusual behavior in front of their eyes quickly attracted their attention.

Including some melon-eating fans, they had a premonition that James would do something, and they had already taken out the button of their mobile phone early to turn on the photo function, ready to record something.

James' next move didn't disappoint them either.

After putting the bottle back, James threw magnesium powder into the air with his hands together in front of the audience.

For a moment, a dusty white mist formed above his head.

Then James slapped his hands vigorously.

Well, although I don't know what the meaning of this set of actions is, the fans in front of me can still feel a very good momentum.

That kind of momentum gave them the feeling that James was going to explode tonight.

Sun Hao, standing on the other side of the technical table, also saw James's movements.

When he saw it, his expression was obviously stunned.

So, this James' signature move in history...... Is it ahead of schedule?

Well, some people may think that since Sun Hao already has the nickname of "Little Emperor", he should also do the action of throwing magnesium powder, take James's path, and make James have no way out.

No！

Sun Hao, I don't want to do that at all!

The nickname of the little emperor was also obtained by Su Qun by mistake, and to be honest, in the NBA over the years, he used more nicknames than the Suns.

And now James is his fan brother, he can't do that.

What Sun Hao feels now is that James may play a little differently tonight.

A small episode, this scene was recorded by many fans.

And, of course, some of the reporters in residence who stood not far from the sidelines.

I believe that after the game, this matter will be part of the news coverage.

Of course, the key is the game in front of you.

If the Nuggets still can't win the game, then the move doesn't mean much.

Well, the every move of successful people is always cared for, and who will pay attention to the losers?

The two sides started the game, and Camby leaped to get the ball back to the Nuggets half court before O'Neal did.

Sun Hao's hunch is right, not only James, but the entire Nuggets team feels different tonight!

The Nuggets' first offense, James, took the initiative to block and dismantle Terry!

After taking it apart, James cut to the basket and Terry walked outside.

Terry makes a step-back three-point shot...... Hit!

The atmosphere at Pepsi Center exploded in an instant.

Now they also feel that the Nuggets who are back at home are very different from the first two games!

"Charles, what am I talking about?"

In the commentary booth, Kenny Smith looked at Barkley with a slight hint of interest.

"Man, the game has just begun!"

Barkley disagreed.

Well, he was right to be dismissive.

Because in the next round, O'Neal directly hung Camby to send the ball to the basket and played 2+1!

You're imposing, you have a good opening hand, that's your business.

But I want to score, and you still can't stop me!

Moreover, after O'Neill adjusted his breathing, he added a penalty...... I actually entered!

Oh no!

I don't know if Sun Hao's sentence "with me" on the plane made the big shark feel at ease, and he was able to score a goal.

3 to 3, draw!

Nuggets, James continued to block and dismantle, and Terry saw that O'Neal didn't come up after dismantling this time, so he shot directly in the middle distance!

"Huh!"

And after a crisp sound, the ball goes in again!

Terry tonight, scored 5 points in a row at the beginning, and he felt a little good!

The cheers from the audience were even louder.

The Nuggets have suffered heavy defeats before, and in addition to James being targeted, there is also the fact that no one else on the Nuggets team has been able to stand up and score.

Terry was also a little suppressed by Sun Hao.

But tonight, he looks like he's finally going to be strong!

O'Neal, a strong hit on the inside, was fouled by Martin who assisted in the defense!

He, once again, walked to the free throw line.

Well, although the Nuggets' state is much better than the past two games, they can't stop O'Neal or O'Neal!

O'Neal, walk to the free throw line.

He adjusted his breathing.

On the first penalty, the ball went straight in.

On the second free throw, the ball slammed into the front of the basket...... Climb in!

You might be hell to say it, because O'Neal opened with ...... All three penalties are hit!

"Hell yes!"

On the commentary bench, even Barkley, who supported the Lakers, couldn't help but be rude.

Is this the same big shark he knew!

O'Neill was also happy, and after the free throw, he couldn't help but reach out and look at it, and then slapped his thigh.

I've confirmed the pain, this special mother is not dreaming.

He suddenly felt that Denver's home stadium was not so bad!

But looking back, when Terry blocked again, O'Neal had to go out.

But as soon as he went out, Terry returned the ball to James, who received the ball and quickly broke through to the basket for a dunk to score!

This ball, it's a beautiful shot!

This is also O'Neal's biggest weakness after gaining weight.

It's hard for him to get out, and it's hard to get it back when he gets out.

The previous Kings, Mavericks, and Lakers were always playing at this point.

After two consecutive heavy losses, Nuggets head coach George Karl has clearly done in-depth research and studied the weaknesses of the Lakers.

After the dunk, James landed and roared at the sidelines.

His past two fights are indeed a little too depressing!

7 to 5!

The Nuggets' performance tonight was a pleasant surprise.

Sun Hao also hoisted the ball to O'Neill.

Although he was lagging behind, Sun Hao did not panic at all.

Because Camby and Martin have already been fouled once.

Unless they are going to be replaced immediately, their defensive moves will definitely not dare to go big.

Facts have also proved that Sun Hao's judgment is correct.

After O'Neal got the ball, he turned around and didn't care about Martin, who was helping to defend at all, and got up and dunked directly.

Martin, just dodged.

"Bang!"

Big shark out of the cage!

O'Neal opened and scored 7 points in a row!

The scarlet fangs glowed with cold light, aggressive!

"Kenny, what were you talking about in the studio?"

This time it was Barkley's turn to speak.

Kenny Smith laughed and bowed his head.

Well, O'Neal's play does not seem to be affected by altitude sickness, but he is more dominant than the previous two games.

He still underestimated Shaq.

However, the Nuggets' offense tonight is really open.

James and Terry picked up the ball again, this time in the face of Malone's defensive options and passed the ball to Martin, who was in the open space.

Martin took a step with the ball and scored 2 points with a flying dunk.

9 to 7!

The Nuggets still hold the lead.

This kind of performance is really different from the past two games!

The scene camera was given to James, and a fierce light could be seen in James's eyes.

He really wanted to, really wanted to win.

The feeling of not being able to win the game after saying a lot of inspirational things in the last two games is really terrible.

This embodiment is reflected in the fact that after Sun Hao hoisted the ball in again, James went inside to help defend as soon as possible.

You're told that he's moving fast, and O'Neill is really a bit stuck.

Although O'Neal showed his excellent ball control and controlled it and distributed the ball to Christie, who was open on the outside, the latter's three-point shot was not able to make it.

Camby used his sucking power to grab a defensive rebound, and the Nuggets played a defensive counterattack.

James was the first to rush to the frontcourt, received the ball and jumped past the defense to stage a trademark tomahawk slam dunk.

The Pepsi Center was completely set on fire.

11 to 7!

In the opening 5 minutes, the Nuggets played an absolutely perfect performance!

At this time, fans will look at the words that James said in the previous press conference.

Winning the championship is really not impossible for James!

Moreover, James continued that good form for the entire half.

Although O'Neal is still absolutely dominant on the inside, the Nuggets have opened up their offense tonight.

As a result, at halftime, the Nuggets led the Lakers by 6 points, 58-52!

James contributed 15 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in the half.

This data is almost catching up with the data of his entire game in the past two games!

On the commentary bench, Kenny Smith staged three reversals, his eyes full of pride.

He had only said before that the Nuggets had a chance to win the game at home.

But now it seems that the win is likely to be tonight!

"Kenny, I have to remind you again that they still have grandchildren."

Barkley didn't care at all and continued his role as "Sun Blow".

However, there was nothing wrong with what he said.

In fact, in this whole series, because the Lakers have an absolute advantage inside, Sun Hao actually didn't play much.

More often than not, he hoisted the ball to O'Neal to play.

But now the team is behind, and O'Neill has been playing physically exhausted in the first half.

When the series comes to the third game, fans may be able to meet the familiar Sun Ritian!
