Astound! Chinese players confirmed to participate in the NBA Finals!

A shameless headline appeared on the forum, which was a parody by fans, of course, but it was indeed confirmed that there would be Chinese players who would play in the NBA Finals.

Because both the SuperSonics and the Lakers have reached the Western Conference Finals, no matter which team wins, there will be Chinese players who will play in the Finals.

There's nothing wrong with it, Lao Tie!

In any case, it is definitely the first time in history that three Chinese players have played in the NBA Western Conference Finals.

"Kobe Bryant's quality is there, he's definitely one of the best point guards in the league right now, and none of us can say we can guard him."

Lu Fei remembered Kobe's step-back jumper, in this league, if you want to say who is most like Jordan, it may be Kobe.

It's hard to completely limit Kobe.

Coupled with Yao Ming, it is even more difficult.

"So if we want to win this series, what we have to do is limit Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming, if we want to limit two people at the same time, it's unlikely."

In the tactical analysis room, Lu Fei replaced the Lakers players with red round magnets and sucked them on the tactical board, in which the positions of Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming were marked with a pen.

"So, we have to have a limit of choice!"

No one spoke, everyone fell into deep thought, because this choice was not a good choice for anyone.

"Who to choose?"

"Limit Yao Ming or Kobe?"

It's a question that lingers in everyone's mind.

McMillan seemed to understand what Lu Fei was going to say, but he didn't break it, because he didn't know if his choice was the right one.

Oku hesitated for a moment: "Restrict Yao Ming, although I don't want to take on this task, but obviously, Yao Ming's attack power is a little weaker." ”

Rashid Wallace shook his head: "No, I think Kobe Bryant should be restricted, although his attack power is stronger, but neither Memet nor Wang is a player who is good at defense, it is too difficult to restrict Yao Ming, you must know that our strongest is still the outside, Sean can complete the task of restricting Kobe." ”

It has to be said that Rasheed Wallace's analysis makes sense.

Sean Battier's defense has a certain impact on Kobe, and it will not affect the performance of other players, and Battier only needs to focus all his energy on Kobe.

But......

Lu Fei shook his head: "I agree with Memet's point of view, restrict Yao Ming!" ”

"Of course, it's not because Yao Ming's attack power is weak, it's precisely because Yao Ming is their tactical axis, and I think we should destroy their tactics at the point where their tactics are initiated."

"Don't give Yao Ming a chance to stand in the free throw line area, he stands in that position, the outside line must remember to shrink back, try not to let him catch the ball, and of course pay attention to defending for three seconds."

"Let Yao Ming play the basket, as long as he doesn't have a chance to catch the ball at the free throw line, he can't respond to the offense, which cuts off the connection between him and Kobe."

"What we have to do is not to work the inside, but to take on the role of helping the inside line limit Yao Ming."

"As long as we can do that, we will definitely win!"

"Victory!"

"Defeat Los Angeles!"

"I'm here to win the championship!"

"Fuck it!"

Everyone in the locker room shouted, and McMillan knew that it was a great thing to be able to mobilize everyone's passion at this time, but he also knew that it was not easy to do what Lu Fei said.

He believes that these players are also clear, but everyone still chooses to believe Lu Fei.

Just like every game in the past.

……

The Lakers bus is driving from the hotel to the Key Arena.

Kobe Bryant looked out the window, he comes to Seattle to play many times a year, but playing the first game of the Western Conference Finals here, it should be the first time.

The last time the Lakers and SuperSonics met in the Western Conference Finals was back in the 1986-1987 season.

That time, the Lakers' show time, Abdul-Jabbar was 39 years old, and head coach Pat Riley decided to focus the offense on Magic Johnson and sent James Worthy to assist the offense.

David Thompson, who moved from San Antonio mid-season, also shared a lot of the burden for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

He and. Green and Kurt Rambis, along with Cotter Rambis, play power forward.

In addition, Riley is fortunate to have two excellent role players.

Shooter Byron Scott was able to contribute 17 points per game and shoot 43.6 percent from three-point range. Michael Cooper is the pivot on the defensive end.

This season, the Lakers' offense has been fluid and showy.

In the end, they defeated the SuperSonics 4-1 in the Western Conference Finals.

The Lakers that season were too strong, and the current Lakers are nowhere near that strong.

And the supersonic team that season was not as tough as the current one.

Therefore, Kobe Bryant does not know what the final outcome will be, and he has proven himself this season, even without O'Neal, he can still carry this financial army on his shoulders.

He doesn't speak, but he tells everyone with his actions.

The black mamba, or the black mamba.

"Hey, Kobe, how do you think the SuperSonics are going to defend us in this game?" Yao Ming sat next to him and asked as he watched the edited video.

Kobe Bryant shook his head, he had thought about this question many times, but he couldn't think of it.

"I think they're going to find a way to restrain you."

Yao Ming smiled, full of confidence.

"Why?" Bryant asked.

Yao Ming turned off the laptop in front of him and said, "Because you are our strongest offensive weapon, your scoring ability will make them feel troublesome, and the most important point is ...... I don't think they're going to go down to me. ”

"Oh?"

"If they limit me, then they will lose a lot, their interior line will have to focus more on defense, and the outside line will be left with Lei Allen and Lu Fei, will they rely on the two of them to attack?"

"McMillan wouldn't be so stupid."

Kobe nodded, although offense and defense are not the same thing, but if a player puts too much energy into the defensive end, the physical strength on the offensive end will definitely be affected.

It's just that they didn't expect that what Lu Fei asked for was that the outside players would assist in the defense, that is, the ones who put more defensive energy into it, not the inside line, but still the outside line.

With an hour before the game, the Key Arena was already packed with Seattle fans.

The moment the Lakers players stepped into the arena, they found that the boos of the fans in the key arena were simply deafening.

This is the home of the devil that the rest of the league hates the most.

The first game of the Western Conference Finals is on the verge of breaking out!
