Chapter 295: Best Rookie

After Game 2, the Lakers led 2-0, both expected and unexpected.

Unexpectedly, the Lakers have a large lead, because the Lakers are stronger than the Clippers in terms of regular season records, playoff performances, and player lineups.

In addition, it is a home game, and it is normal to have a 2-0 lead.

Unexpectedly, the Clippers barely had much to put up for resistance.

It was expected to be a derby between Mars and Earth.

Who knows that if the Lakers exert a little force, the Clippers will not be able to withstand it.

The Clippers' quick counterattack in the regular season, with the second team pulling points, didn't play a role at all in the matchup with the Lakers.

At the end of the day, it's still up to Chris Paul and Griffin's duo.

Paul scored 27 points and 10 assists in the first game and 28 points and 12 assists in the second game.

Griffin was a little less impressive, scoring 20 points in both games.

However, the other players played mediocre, and Billups shot 0 of 6 in the second game, did not score a point, and hung zero.

The second team of strikers, who were pinned on by Negro, were defeated by Li Liang alone.

To make matters worse, after Game 2, there were already voices of discord within the Clippers.

At halftime in the second game, the news that Negro was angry at the players was not known by whom, and it was exposed in the media.

Subsequently, the news of the contradictions between Negro and the players in the regular season was turned over again, and the cold rice was fried.

Los Angeles is a place where the spotlight gathers, and the slightest bit of wind and grass will be watched and hyped up.

There's only one way to get out of this noise, and that's to win.

When Li Liang first entered the Lakers and quarreled with Bass Jr., he was also hyped up.

Later, he played better and better, helping the Lakers keep winning, and no one remembers it.

One day, if Li Liang doesn't play well and can't help the Lakers lose, this kind of thing will be turned out as black material.

It's that realistic.

Now the question for the Clippers is, how do they win Game 3?

Experts from ESPN and other television stations have given the Clippers ideas in columns and TV shows.

Of course, it's basically nonsense to talk for a long time, and what is the key to winning is the same as not saying it.

When there is a gap in the team's hard power, the head coach must ask for change and think of tricks that others can't think of.

Then the core players of the team have to explode every game and play 120 percent to win the series.

Negro clearly doesn't have the ability to adjust, and he's pinning his hopes on a couple of substitutes.

The whole Clippers are now panicking, and the question inevitably comes to mind: Are we really going to be "fo"?

This kind of psychological pressure is huge, and it is also where the power of the mouth cannon lies.

Li Liang is a kid, but "his words must be cheap", and the third scene was in Stamps, with more breasts and fewer chickens.

……

Unlike the Clippers' panic, the Lakers are still as calm as water.

Team 11 conducted a day of tactical training to conduct coordination drills on the offensive end.

It's nice to play a derby, you don't have to leave Los Angeles.

It is really a great benefit for veterans, who can adjust their state well and avoid the fatigue of the journey.

Li Liang is also seriously debugging his state.

He has stopped all the tasks in the system to ensure that he can devote himself to the real arena with abundant energy.

The preface to the Book of the City of Angels (Part II) that he got from doing the task that day, he looked at it after he went back, and it was the same as the preface he got before.

There was nothing at all, a blank piece of paper.

It is estimated that the content will not be displayed until the follow-up task, the table of contents is obtained, and then the time is given to open it.

He can't control any of this, so let's kill the Clippers first.

If you say that you want to sweep, you must sweep, and you must talk about attraction, otherwise how will you mix in the alliance in the future?

You can't be like some stars, saying that they will retire from this team today and move to another team tomorrow.

Today he said he wanted to win a championship for the city, and tomorrow he would bring his talent to the edge of the sea.

Although the fans will always forgive them, they still have to do as much as they can.

In the past two days, Li Liang has trained very seriously, and since he stopped the tasks in the system, Li Liang has never been late in the morning.

The entire Lakers are in a very good state.

Kobe Bryant was in a good mood during this time, training, playing, and often had a smile on his face.

Even joked with Howard once in a while.

The two of them often didn't talk all day before.

Players like Kobe Bryant and Nash with a lot of playoff experience know very well that the Clippers are not opponents at all after playing two games.

And fortunately, the semifinals are the Clippers, and if it is the Nuggets, the Lakers may have to fight a little harder.

At the moment, in another set of matchups in the West, the Spurs and Thunder have reached 1:1.

The Thunder narrowly won the first game, and in the second game, they were pressed to the ground by the Spurs and lost their home-court advantage.

After Game 3 between the Lakers and Clippers, the Thunder will challenge the Spurs in San Antonio.

No matter who wins or loses, the winner is bound to suffer a lot of attrition.

From this point of view, it still makes sense for the Lakers to compete for the first place in the West.

Otherwise, the second round will be against the Spurs or the Thunder, and it will not be as laid-back as it is now.

Meanwhile in the East, the Miami Heat have finished Game 3 against the Bulls.

In the first game, the Heat unexpectedly overturned at home and were overturned by the Bulls, who came to Miami at the end of seven big games.

Needless to say, the Heat are on break.

In the second game, the Heat didn't give the Bulls a chance, and a big win was given to the Chicagoan.

Then the 10th came to Chicago, and it was another big win, with a big score of 2:1 lead.

James's team, a team that is a grade worse than the team, is really stable.

Don't worry about what to go down, a big turnaround, a big reversal, that is, stability.

In this regard, he is more suitable than Li Liang to obtain the "Book of Stay", and the overall style is as solid as Duncan.

Now that some media have begun to hype up the finals 6vs24 again, this matchup that was originally considered difficult to achieve is back in the people's sights.

Of course, there was no such voice within the Lakers.

They don't even care about the Spurs and Thunder game, they only care about the Clippers.

……

On May 12th, the third game between the Clippers and the Lakers.

Before the start of this game, the NBA officially announced the results of several important awards for the season.

The Grizzlies' Mark Gasol won the Defensive Player of the Year.

The Knicks' J.R. Smith won the Sixth Man of the Year.

Marseille Ujiri of the Nuggets won the title of Best Manager.

The Lakers have two winners, Mike Brown, who won the best coach for the second time!

As for Li Liang, he beat Damian Lillard and Anthony Davis to win the 2012-201 Rookie of the Year award.

Before the start of the third race, at the Stamp Center, Li Liang and Mike Brown each received the trophy from Stern.

Li Liang won the title of best rookie as a rookie with the 55th pick, becoming the second-lowest rookie in NBA history.

The player who won the Rookie of the Year with the lowest overall pick dates back to 1957.

That guy's name was Woody Salisberry, and he was drafted by the Philadelphia Warriors with the 5th pick in the 8th round of the draft and the 60th overall pick.

Then he won the best rookie of the year with an outstanding performance.

However, at that time, there were many draft rounds in the NBA, and the 60th pick was only in the middle of the rank.

A lot of people can't play after being drafted, they just go through the motions in the NBA.

Woody Salisberry didn't go on to become a great star either.

Instead, he is the player who has reached a certain number of games in NBA history and has the lowest win contribution (share).

-79, simply ruthless.

In comparison, Li Liangke is different, and his victory contribution value is quite high.

Originally, the award ceremony was supposed to take place in the second race, but the third was also in Stamp anyway, so it didn't make a difference.

So the two received the award away for the first time, but won a cheer from the fans at the scene.

Of course, this makes the Clippers players very unhappy, and today is the home of the Clippers!

It's useless to be unhappy, accept the ravages of the King of Los Angeles, maybe the Clippers should change their arena.

Or even a change of city. Genius remembers the first three or five in a second
