(Chapter 1)

"The game is about to start, I don't have any special requirements for you to achieve in this game, the most important thing for you is not to be so nervous, I think you should all be very clear about this, Lin, especially you, although there are a lot of rumors before this game, but I think you should be able to know how to deal with these in the game, and not be affected by these rumors"

"Regardless of the outcome of this game or this series, you should be proud of yourself this season and your performance in this series! Come on! ”

On May 31, 1995, at eight o'clock in the evening, in the Lakers' locker room, it was less than half an hour before the game began.

Although everyone knows that Magic is right, no matter what the series wins, for these Lakers players, they will not be criticized by their own fans, nor will there be pressure from management, after all, this season the Lakers have nothing to cause dissatisfaction with the team's supporters and managers, in this case, the Lakers players are indeed qualified to play so easily.

It's just that if most of the world's media experts are saying before the start of this game that the home court of this game will be the Lakers' last home game this season, the Lakers' leading player Lin Han will pay the price for his wild words because of the defeat in this game, in this case, even if these Lakers players have no pressure, in fact, the pressure is not small, especially when the magic named Lin Han, Almost all of the other Lakers players looked at Lin Han with some concern.

For the rest of the Lakers' players, even if they lose this game after hard work, they will lose, and there is no other big deal, but obviously, for Lin Han, if he loses this game, then the meaning is completely different, with the support of other Lakers players for Lin Han, they certainly don't want their boss to become a laughing stock like David Robinson after losing the series.

In fact, after getting along with Lin Han for a season, although many players on the Lakers team cannot be said to have a 100% understanding of Lin Han, after all, although Lin Han has a high reputation in the Lakers, it is impossible for a person to say that he fully understands the character of another person, even if two good friends are difficult to do this, but even if they do not understand Lin Han 100%, but some of Lin Han's behaviors, the Lakers players are still very clear, Take the words of Lin Han, who has been quite controversial in the past two days, saying that he will win the next game, no matter how stupid the Lakers players are, it is worth it, this is Lin Han is shifting the focus, hoping that the focus of the media will all be on himself, carry all the pressure on the team, and other players can play easily, which is Lin Han's protection for other players on the Lakers team.

It's just that for the Lakers players, although they are very moved by Lin Han's self-explosive protection, although there are many team bosses in the NBA who have had things like Lin Han to protect their teammates, such as Jordan and Barkley in the league, the most famous of which are Jordan and Barkley, in fact, if many superstars in the league have a lot of comic remarks and behaviors, although a large part of these superstars are really funny, but there are also some deliberate actions by these superstars. Like Lin Han, he did it on purpose at this time.

It's just that the other players of the Lakers are reluctant to let Lin Han do this at this time, because generally speaking, in the playoffs, the superstar blows himself up to protect the team, which requires some specific conditions to be able to do, first of all, the game is scorching, the strength of the two sides is equal, and the suspense of victory and defeat is great, so the sharp increase in media attention has greatly affected the psychological state of the players on both sides, in this case, the superstar with responsibility will bear all the pressure on the team, but the Lakers' current situation, the Lakers and the Rockets are naturally not in a scorching situation, The situation of the game is not particularly intense, and in this case, only the mentally handicapped would do such a self-destructive and useless thing.

However, is Lin Han a fool?

Of course, he is not a stupid person without IQ, in the eyes of Lakers players, although Lin Han is not a high-IQ crowd like Magic, but he is definitely not a stupid person, the reason why his boss would do such a thing as self-explosion is because, in Lin Han's opinion, this round of the series is not over, and there is still a fight!

Maybe at this time, everyone in the world is desperate about whether the Lakers can beat the Rockets, but at this time, Lin Han is still full of confidence in this game or this round of the series, and even confidently thinks that the situation between the Lakers and the Rockets is actually very intense!

In fact, this is not that the Lakers players guessed Lin Han's obsession with winning at this time and thought that they were quite smart, in fact, most of the media experts and even public opinion in the entire United States can guess what Lin Han wants to do at this time, but these guys pretend not to know, after all, no matter whether Lin Han can realize his wild words or not, for these media reporters, it is huge news, at this time, these media reporters are all people who pretend to be asleep, how can people who pretend to be asleep wake up? Unless Lin Han or the Rockets joke has come out after this game, these guys will rush towards Lin Han or the Rockets like bloodthirsty.

Of course, in the eyes of these Lakers fans, the probability of these media experts and reporters rushing to Lin Han in the end is the greatest.

And that's what worries them the most.

Of course, in the face of the worries of his teammates, Lin Han is of course also clear, he actually did this, and naturally he also has the courage to bear this qiē, although he really has no certainty of winning this game, after all, all the characters he broke out were only in his early 60s, and he did not reach more than 75 burst value, in this case, after Lin Han broke out such a character value, what kind of Cheng dù can he achieve in this game, in fact, Lin Han is not so clear, after all, this is the Western Conference Finals, not the regular seasonIn fact, this is also the first time that Lin Han has exploded such a character in a game of this level in the Western Conference Finals.

However, just like his teammates thought, the whole world felt that he and his team were finished, but Lin Han would never admit that his team failed like this, not only did he not admit it in his heart, but Lin Han also definitely didn't think that his team was defeated, and this is Lin Han's sue to the world, even now, there is nothing remarkable or invincible here in Lin Han!

"You don't have to worry about me, don't forget, didn't we also win the last game against the Rockets, and we won't be able to win another game this time soon?"

Therefore, after the Magic finished speaking, after feeling the eyes from his teammates, Lin Han, who had a solemn face after entering the locker room like other Lakers players, said with a smile at this time, and after Lin Han finished speaking a little easily, other Lakers players and Magic and other Lakers coaches looked at the smile on Lin Han's face and were directly stunned, they really didn't expect that Lin Han, who should be the most nervous at this time, would have such a mentality.

"Lin is right, since this is already the case, any worry is useless, it is better for everyone to use all their energy to support Lin, maybe we can also complete the victory against the Rockets in this game"

After being stunned for a moment, the magician quickly responded to Lin Han's previous sentence with a smile, maybe it was the Lakers players who looked at the two bosses of their team who still had such fighting spirit and relaxed mentality at this time, for a while, these Lakers players who were extremely worried about the outcome of this game and Lin Han were actually excited for a while, and the Lakers locker room, which was originally a little silent, became fierce for a while.

"Yes, Magic and the boss are right, it's already like this anyway, everyone might as well fight for the boss, even if we really lose in the end, we have no regrets!"

As Lin Han's younger brother, Eddie Jones almost directly stood in his seat at this time and roared with other Lakers players, and at this time, Lin Han looked at the magician who was watching him not far away, and Eddie Jones, who was enlivening the team atmosphere at this time.

As the leader of the Lakers, in the case of the team's extremely bad victory, Lin Han used his actions to show that he and his team have not lost, and the final result is that the Lakers players have indeed not collapsed, and in the locker room on the other side, the Rockets, who are in very good condition at this time, are also in a very warm situation at this time.

"This is the penultimate game, this is the penultimate game we played in this series, this game we are going to defeat the Lakers, we are going to defeat Lin Han, we are going to get the most decisive victory, we are going to make that kid pay the price for his contempt for us! We want everyone to know that the strength of the Rockets is not comparable to that of the Lakers, and we want to be the champion of this year! ”

As the leading player of the Rockets, Barkley has stood by the side of the head coach of the Rockets, Tom Janovic, and constantly cheered for his teammates, and at this time, other players of the Lakers team are also fiercely responding to Barkley's somewhat arrogant statements.

Although Barkley's statement is a little inferior to the strength of the Lakers, but in the eyes of all Rocket players, there is nothing wrong with these statements, because this is the truest portrayal of the strength of both sides, the Lakers are indeed inferior to the Rockets, and they are restrained by the Rockets, although the Lakers won one game in the last game, but in this game, if the Lakers really let the Magic continue to play center, then wait to be killed by the Rockets!

Therefore, even the head coach of the Rockets, Tom Janovic, had a smile on his face when Barkley spoke excitedly, and he was also full of confidence in this game!

"Charles, I hope your performance in this game can be as arrogant and arrogant as your statements!"

As the team's outside leader, Drexler also said with a slightly teasing smile after Barkley finished talking excitedly and shouting with the Rockets players, and after Drexler finished speaking, almost all the Rockets players who were quite fierce just now laughed out loud at this time.

It can be seen that although the fighting spirit of the Rockets is already quite strong at this time, in the same way, this team is also quite relaxed now!

"Don't worry, in this game, I will let the Lakers know what kind of inside line is the real inside line, and I am not comparable to any cat and dog who plays the inside line in a cameo, we will win this game!"

In the face of Drexler's ridicule, Barkley's answer was still quite confident and crisp, as if he had completely forgotten that the Rockets' defeat in the last game was mainly due to him.

It's just clear that although Barkley was a little heartless at this time, completely selective about the last game, for the Rockets players, Barkley's answer was the answer they wanted to hear the most.

"In this game, the Rockets have no way out!"

That's what all the Rockets players are thinking at this time!

At 8:15 p.m. on May 31, 1995, Los Angeles Forum Arena, the fourth game of the series between the Houston Rockets and the Los Angeles Lakers, because of the victory in the last game, before the start of this game, although the world's media is still not optimistic about the Lakers, but as Lakers fans, Lakers fans in this game are much more confident than in the last game, after all, the last game was won, and they are willing to believe that the team can win this game again, Hope that his team can beat the Rockets under the leadership of Lin Han and Magic.

Therefore, when the Rockets players came out of the tunnel first, the moral boos that these Rockets players encountered in this game were completely different from the boos they encountered in the previous game.

And from this point can also be seen that this game is important for the two teams, although this game is not a battle of life and death, and it is not a good battle of Tianwang Mountain, but this game is definitely the most important game of this round of the series, of course, if this round of the series has the final tie-breaker, it is another matter, in addition to the tie-breaker, this game can be said to be the time when the momentum of the two teams reached the highest!

After all, if the Rockets also lose this game, then the momentum of the Rockets will be really hit hard, and even in the end, they will be suppressed by the Lakers and Lin Han directly in terms of momentum, and then go downhill, and on the Lakers' side, the victory in the last game can make Lakers fans have more confidence at this time, so the last victory is for the Lakers players, Doesn't it increase their self-confidence? If the Lakers lose the last game, I'm afraid that both Magic and Lin Han will lose the control of the locker room, no matter how positive their speeches are, it may be difficult to awaken the fighting spirit of other Lakers players, so this game can be said to be the time when the Lakers' fighting spirit is the highest, of course, if the Lakers can still beat the Rockets in this game, then the momentum of the Lakers team can certainly be improved in the future, but for most people, it is difficult, so this game is all the best time for the Lakers. Although this kind of momentum can't make the Rockets beat the Lakers, this kind of momentum makes this game more intense, which is still okay.

In fact, as the commentators of this game, Larry Bird and Collins saw what happened to the Rockets players when they played and the momentum of the Lakers players, especially Lin Han and the Magic, when they played in the finale, these two are also more optimistic that this game will be a fierce game, although the final victory may still be the Rockets, but the Lakers will definitely not be defeated.

"I don't know what kind of strategy the Lakers will use to deal with the Rockets in this game"

Therefore, at this time, TV viewers and fans all over the world can not worry about whether the Lakers will directly give up this series after winning a game, judging from the current atmosphere of the Lakers, Lin Han and Magic still have a huge impact on the team.

Of course, although at this time, whether it is Larry Bird or Colin, they are no longer worried that the Lakers will face the Rockets in a negative state in this game, but this game can be played fiercely, but to play excitingly, it also needs the Lakers to have enough means to face the Rockets.

It can be said that because of the revenge mentality of the three leading players of the Rockets against Lin Han, the Rockets gave the Lakers a chance, and the Lakers finally seized the opportunity, so in a certain way, the Lakers' victory in the last game is like what the Rockets' leading inside line Barkley said, this is the victory that the Rockets themselves gave to the Lakers, of course, although this is a victory sent by the Rockets, but the Lakers can seize it, which is also the Lakers' own credit, after all, in the hearts of many players on the Rockets, I'm afraid they didn't expect the Lakers to finally be able to seize this opportunity.

Of course, no matter what, now that the Rockets have gone all out and no longer give the Lakers a chance, and without the opportunity sent by the Rockets, can the Lakers still be able to beat the mighty Rockets? Of course, this game is exciting, and it doesn't need the Lakers to beat the Rockets, it just needs the Lakers to be able to block the Rockets, and now the Lakers have the capital and ability to block the Rockets?

When I thought of this, both Collins and Larry Bird sighed.

"Larry, do you think the Lakers will continue to let the Magic start the interior defense of Barkley in this game?"

In the end, Collins looked at the two players who were sorting out their equipment on the bench at this time, and subconsciously asked for a while, and after Collins asked, Larry Bird on the side almost didn't think about it, and directly shook his head in denial.

"Although in the NBA playoffs, it is an iron law that the winning team does not change, but in this game, the Lakers will change the lineup, but if the lineup is changed, it is incomprehensible"

After Larry Bird answered, Collins also nodded in understanding, in fact, Larry Bird had already said quite politely, but he didn't understand how the Lakers changed their formation in this game, in fact, it should be said that the Lakers seemed to have no room to change their formation in this game.

And the reason why he asked so before is also such a meaning, because only when there is no room to change the formation, will he choose to helplessly continue the tactical play of the last game, of course, the Lakers are not without room to change the formation, this team actually still has room to change the formation.

That is to let Lin Han directly turn on the so-called God mode in the game, that is, the brainless singles mode, if in the past, almost the whole world would not doubt that the Lakers would choose such a mode to save the team after a problem, because the whole world knows that Lin Han is the last hole card of the Lakers.

However, in this series, as perhaps one of the strongest singles players in the league, Lin Han has never turned on the brainless singles mode in an entire game in this series, let alone this series, even the entire playoffs, Lin Han has not done so.

You know, from the Warriors to the Spurs and now the Rockets, Lin Han and the Lakers have played 12 playoff games, and there have been 12 games without a single strategy, in this case, will the Lakers really return to this tactic? After all, 12 games are not long or short, and the Lakers are not a familiar Cheng that has been formed for several years and has been run-in to the point where it is immersed in the bone marrow, the tactical run-in of this team is actually only one season, a season of run-in, 12 games have not been played, in such a practical situation, whether the brainless singles of the Lakers and Lin Han will appear, everyone is skeptical, at least in the eyes of many media experts, it is difficult to say.

Of course, some people think that the Lakers are already in a desperate situation at this time, although Lin Han does not play a whole game of brainless singles, but in some periods of some games, Lin Han still has such a situation, but it is obvious that playing a certain tactic in a game and playing a certain tactic intermittently in a certain period of time are completely different concepts, in terms of brainless singles, Lin Han plays this tactic in a game, then this tactic at any time, even if Lin Han does not play this tactic at a certain time, The other players of the Lakers team have to run according to this tactic, and the other players in the game are all ready for this tactic at any time, but if Lin Han plays a certain tactic at a certain time in a legacy game, such as brainless singles, and the Lakers' offense stagnates at a certain time, and finally there is no way, Lin Han can only play singles, or Lin Han suddenly wants to play singles on a blood whim in the center of the game, these are extremely sudden, and even his teammates are playing this tactic when he plays. I don't know if Lin Han wants to play like this, naturally there will be no preparation and running, in this case, Lin Han may not be absolutely strange, but his teammates definitely have a considerable sense of strangeness, it is okay in the regular season, but when it comes to the playoffs, especially at the level of the Western Conference Finals, what will happen to this tactic, in fact, everyone is skeptical.

Don't think that you don't need to cooperate with the single tumor tactics, you know, even if it is a cancer tactic, this also needs to be cooperated, unless a player can play five on the court, even Lin Han can't do one five in the game.

Therefore, in the last game, when the Lakers used tactics such as the desperate situation, the final choice was still Princeton's tactics to seize the opportunity, and some experts suspected that the Lakers might have discovered that their team's cancer tactics had gone wrong, so they had to use the Princeton tactical system all the time.

In this case, while Larry Bird and Collins have some doubts about such a speculation, many people support such a speculation.

Of course, no one knows what the Lakers are already like at this time, and only after the game starts, will everyone know whether there are really some changes within the Lakers at this time.

And just when Larry Bird was thinking about these things, the starting lineups of both sides were also warming up, and just when Larry Bird refocused his attention on this game, the Celtics legend heard a burst of exclamations from the Lakers fans as soon as he came back to his senses.

And when Larry Bird heard this exclamation, he turned his head to take a look, when he saw his partner Collins, his partner's face also became very big, and when Larry Bird quickly pulled his eyes back to the court, the Celtics' former legendary superstar was not much less stunned than his partner Collins at this time!

"The Lakers didn't start this game with Magic?!"

When Larry Bird saw the situation of the Lakers at this time, the commentator of this game shouted directly!

What kind of attitude will the Lakers take to face the Rockets in this game, this is a proposition that many media experts speculate about, in fact, many people have a lot of answers, but for most people, the Magic, who was very good in the last game, has always been an important member of these propositions, and is also one of the most reliable players in the Lakers team except for Lin Han, even more reliable than Wilkins, after all, Wilkins is a typical tumor, although the strength is very strong, But it's hard to really be reliable, and Magic is different, no matter whether this guy is too old or other aspects are declining too fast, Magic can output more than 10 points and more than 5 assists per game whether it's the regular season or the playoffs, and this is still not a lot of balls, after the last game, even Brother Shui Lingge of the New York Times bluntly said that what he admires the most is the magician, and the efficiency of Brother Shui Ling's per value statistics, the efficiency of the magician is higher than that of Jordan, The value of the unit time unit ball right creation zào can be called against the sky, it can be said that the magician's ball style has become refined at this time.

In this case, the Lakers actually let the Magic substitute in this game, and it was the Magic himself who made himself the substitute.

Soon, however, when almost everyone in the audience was exclaiming for the magician's substitution, soon, after this exclamation, as if everyone had thought of something, the audience at the scene, including Larry Bird and Collins, once again let out an even more violent exclamation and uproar!

Obviously, the Magic was substituted in this game, although I don't know why the Magic let himself be substituted in this game, but one thing the whole world knows is what the Lakers' tactics are when the Magic is on the bench!

"Tumor singles, the Lakers really want to be cancer singles in this game!"

Looking at Lin Han, who was walking to the court with his teammates at this time, Collins had already shouted at this time, obviously, many people speculated before the game that the Lakers would no longer be able to play cancer singles in a game like the Western Conference Finals.

Therefore, the media reporters and experts who had no hole cards for the Lakers team that many people supported before the game were all speechless after seeing the five players who came to the court at this time.

"Obviously, everyone underestimates Lin Han's strength again, his singles cancer tactics are obviously not the same as others, other players' singles cancer tactics may go bankrupt because of teammates' rustiness after more than a dozen games, but Lin Han's god mode is not like this, other players can't play singles cancer tactics without the protection of teammates, and Lin Han, if he really wants, even if he is not facing five defenders, Lin Han's offense will be the same without scruples and without any hesitation"

After feeling the atmosphere of the scene, Larry Bird, who was originally in shock, laughed directly at this time, especially when he thought that Lin Han's tumor singles were different from many other tumors, compared to the decisiveness of the offense or the tumor attribute, even Jordan could not compare to Lin Han, the only thing that could make Larry Bird feel that he could be at the same level as Lin Han was the young player named Kobe Bryant who he met in the All-Star Rookie Game, this kid's tumor attribute is the same as Lin Han, of course, Kobe Bryant is a high school student, and it is difficult to say whether he will be able to enter the NBA in the future, and it is difficult to say whether there will be a platform and opportunity like Lin Han after entering the NBA.

However, in short, it was absolutely wrong for these people to measure Lin Han's tumor attribute by ordinary tumors. R1152
