On May 8, after two days of revision, the Western Conference semifinals began.

The Los Angeles Clippers will be in Los Angeles to take on the Los Angeles Lakers "away".

This is the first time the two teams in the City of Angels have met in the playoffs since the Clippers relocated to Los Angeles in 1984.

The Clippers have long been a belly team, always in the huge shadow of the yellow-robed king.

Their best playoff result was the Western Conference Semifinals in 2006.

Winning a Pacific Division title during the regular season is like a treasure hanging over the arena.

Compared with the Lakers, the top two giants in NBA history, it is really too cold to be cold.

And after getting Chris Paul and selecting Griffin, the Clippers finally got some improvement.

With a hard-fought first-round win over the Nuggets, they got a chance to challenge the Lakers in the playoffs.

This round has undoubtedly received a lot of attention.

In the past two days, the Los Angeles media have taken turns to make pre-match predictions and reports, showing the significance of this round of the game.

It's undoubtedly a feast for Los Angeles sports fans and the media.

They don't have to run around, they don't have to go to rural places like San Antonio or Oose.

As long as you're in Los Angeles, you'll be able to follow the series for the entire finish.

It's also a good thing for the players on both sides, whether home or away, without having to leave Los Angeles or even change stadiums.

Of course, it's not that friendly to the Clippers, as all seven games are likely to be on the road.

This series has become the most watched matchup between East and West.

On the day of the game, the Lakers and Clippers went to Stamps in turn for warm-up practice, and the players from both sides were interviewed.

The Clippers players are still more modest and cautious, and Griffin and Jordan Jr. both said that this is an opportunity to show Los Angeles fans the strength of the Clippers.

Actually, it's, the regular season gives you a chance to show, do you show it?

It was still the boss Chris Paul who stood up and said: "It's the first time in history that two teams in Los Angeles are playing the playoffs, so there will be a lot of people paying attention. We're a good team, and the series is won or lost in the present, not in the past, not in the future. If we can win, it's because we're strong enough and it doesn't matter how we used to be. We will prove it to everyone. ”

This is a lot more direct, and the translation translates it, that is, "No matter how wide the ancestors of Los Angeles are, it is also a matter of the ancestors, and now who loses and who wins depends on the strength, and the Clippers have this strength." ”

In fact, not only Paul said this, but others, including some reporters in Los Angeles, also predicted that the Clippers had a chance to eliminate the Lakers.

Although they only advanced in seven games in the first round, they were against the Nuggets, who were strong.

The Lakers swept in the first round, and the opponent was just the Rockets.

Sometimes playing a lot is not necessarily a bad thing, as long as you don't get hurt, but it is a kind of tempering of the team's lineup run-in and player adaptability.

On the contrary, a team like the Lakers that eliminated their opponents early and started waiting is likely to have a big break.

Of course, this is only the opinion of a smaller part of the Los Angeles media, and more are optimistic about the Lakers.

The Lakers showed strong strength in the first round.

And everyone feels that the potential of the Lakers has not yet been tapped.

Howard on the inside, Gasol on the bench, and even Li Liang.

Except for the three-point explosion in the fourth game, Li Liang's other three games were all decent.

He had no problem playing on the field, but he obviously didn't feel like he was playing with that passion.

Maybe it's because the strength of the rocket is too weak, and it's not worth Li Liang's serious shot.

After the game, some experts analyzed to support this statement, and they counted Li Liang's running and shooting data in the first round, and compared it with the regular season.

came to the conclusion that Li Liang was paddling.

This made the hearts of the media in Los Angeles jump, a rookie, and he can still be so comfortable in the playoffs.

The last time he played in the playoffs was Kobe Bryant.

voted for a three-non-stick, and dared to vote again, which was easy to a certain extent.

Coupled with Li Liang's consistent pre-match liking for surprising words, those reporters couldn't wait.

In the afternoon, the Lakers' open training, Li Liang's locker was already surrounded by a bunch of reporters.

Li conscience knows in his heart what these flies want, isn't it just a mouth cannon?

Li Liang actually doesn't like mouth cannons, and he is quite helpless about his character becoming a "Los Angeles mouth brother".

In fact, he attaches great importance to privacy, and does not contact any reporters in Los Angeles on weekdays, only retaining Wei Dazhi as a voice channel.

People with a little common sense should be able to see that he is not a big mouth, he is a person who likes to keep secrets.

It's a pity that after a few missions and a few use of a hair dryer, my reputation was ruined.

This time, Li Liang thought that he could not add mistakes to mistakes, and avoided all the tricky questions of reporters.

"What are your thoughts on this Los Angeles derby, Bruce Lee?"

A reporter asked.

Li Liang thought to himself, what else can I think, of course I want to win?

Why don't you want to go back to China to fish?

Li Lianggang wanted to answer this question, and the subtitles flashed in front of him.

"Damn, pills, the system wants to send me a task......"

Li Liang still wanted to show his elegant and easy-going image, but the system shattered his wishes.

[Mission, Los Angeles Mouth Cannon, Mission Requirements: Show the media confidence to defeat the Clippers, the stronger the better, Mission Reward: Special Items]

No way, Li Liang pinched his nose and showed confidence, Lao Tzu has never lacked confidence.

"For this series, I would say, it's going to end in Los Angeles." Li Liang came up with a nonsense sentence first, which amused everyone.

He continued: "The Clippers are a strong team, I've watched their games, their tactics, their fighting spirit. But they have a big flaw, they lack flexibility on the flanks, on the outside and on the inside with agility. Also, they lack playoff experience, which is an advantage that the Lakers have. So, we're going to win, definitely. ”

Li Liang's words have been bluntly enough, and the reporters know the material.

Chris Paul and Li Liang,-for-tat.

But the system didn't prompt the task to be completed, Li Liang scratched his head, this Nima is not confident enough, do you have to use a trick?

At this time, the reporter just asked: "You said that the series will end in Los Angeles, but all seven games are in Los Angeles, which one will it be?" ”

Li Liang was waiting for this question, he stretched out four fingers and said, "FO, FO~"

He imitated Moses Malone's Southern Virginia accent of "fo, fo, fo" and uttered the two words.

This is what it means to sweep.

The Lakers have already swept the Rockets in the first round series, so the second FO must be the sweep of the Clippers!

Bruce Lee is not a loss to Bruce Lee, and he has always spoken amazingly.

Needless to say, tonight's game is even more exciting!

Li Liang's remarks about sweeping the Clippers will inevitably spread all over the Internet in an instant and immediately reach the ears of the Clippers players.

What kind of sparks will be sparked on both sides at that time will be very beautiful.

Especially in the first game, if the Lakers lose, it will be a big mess.

Although Los Angeles has a majority of fans who support the Lakers, there are definitely many who want to see the Lakers go wrong.

Especially outside of Los Angeles, the lake is full of black and black places.

And Li Liang finally completed his task:

[Congratulations on completing the mission, obtaining the achievement "Los Angeles Mouth Cannon", and obtaining the reward: City of Angels Book (Part II) Preface]

Li Liang didn't expect that the next prologue of the City of Angels book that he had been thinking about in his heart would be obtained at this time.
