Chapter 830 - Solve the Battle in the Toyota Center (Big Chapter Ask for Subscription~)
Because Tang Qian had already helped the Lakers catch up with the score difference, D'Antoni was immediately replaced by Gasol after the game. There is only one purpose for this purpose, and that is to maintain the autonomous scoring points on the field. And Tang Qian's end was not in vain, the Rockets No. 13 was directly sent into the home team's locker room by him, looking like that, he twisted his wrist.
The power of "Rage + Comprehensive The.Zone" is really good, of course, the main thing is that Tang Qian was also ruthless at that time.
I can go down, but if you touch me like this, or dunk, then I'm sorry, you don't want to be better.
The Rockets lost Harden all of a sudden, and their offensive and defensive capabilities were greatly reduced on the outside, which also gave the Los Angeles people some breathing time. Howard should have stood up at this time, but it is estimated that he was stared at by Tang Qian too much tonight, his hand was not opened at all, and several times the small hook that should have been in the basket slipped out. This time, it was finally the turn of the Rockets fans to be depressed, and they also tasted the bitter tears of the Lakers fans last year.
After holding on for 2 minutes, seeing that time was running out, D'Antoni decisively replaced No. 24 Kobe, and he told Kobe Bryant that as long as he scored, don't bother to defend, lest he get fouled. Kobe nodded, although he didn't want to, but this is indeed the best division of labor for the Lakers at the moment. Otherwise, without him, the Lakers' original dominant last-minute moment will disappear. In this way, the overall calculation is too cost-effective.
Without Harden, Howard had a bad inside hand, Kobe Bryant shot 3 of 5 in a wave, plus 2 free throws, and finally scored 8 points to help the Lakers lock up the win. 105-101 The Lakers narrowly beat their opponent by 4 points. Even in the final 38 seconds, Gasol was fouled and still couldn't give the Rockets a home victory. The series is 3-0, and the Lakers have basically confirmed their qualification.
The whole team of the Lakers was also beaming with joy and an expression of enjoying the victory.
Why? Very simple. No team in BA history has ever come back from 3-0 down to make it four games in a row.
I saw it clearly, there was not a single one.
As of this season, there have only been 12 times that have been able to chase the 0-3 score to 2-3, and only 3 times to 3-3. And how many series have been played in NBA history? Numerous. As a result, the Houstonians were demoralized, and by the time the Player of the Match was announced, there weren't many fans left in the Toyota Center.
0-3 turnover? Who gave them the courage to think like that?
Is Harden still injured? What's going on here? Dreaming?
After the game, Tang Qian won the best player of the game, he got a triple-double of 20 points, 22 rebounds, 10 blocks, 2 assists and 1 steal. That wave of continuous interior defense single-block highlights was also a strong support for him to win the best of the game. In addition to him, Bryant scored 31 points, Gasol 16 points, and Nash had 8 points and 9 assists. In addition to Harden, who scored 36 points on the Rockets, Howard was in a slump and has not yet scored more than 10. Tang Qian wanted to see how those people on ESPN still hurt themselves and how they boasted about the latter.
D'Antoni complained a few words of dissatisfaction at the press conference, he said: I hope that the Lakers can have the same home whistle in the future, otherwise the Rockets' 40+ free throws in a single game will hurt too much.
His complaints are normal, the Lakers' total free-throw numbers don't add up to half of the Rockets' total? This is equivalent to a steady close to 20-point shot all of a sudden! What do you think this is? Even if the shooting percentage is a little lower, there are at least a dozen or so points. In basketball games, especially in the playoffs, 1~2 points determine countless wins and losses, let alone ten points at once?
Kobe Bryant also supported: He will do his best to kill the Rockets in the next game, and he wants to see if the referee is willing to give the Lakers a whistle.
But their remarks thought that they involved "shady" and "the fairness of the referee", so the league office did not hesitate to punish a ticket, the number is not too much, mainly a prestige and warning. However, D'Antoni does not regret saying this at all, because such a complaint is to show an attitude that the league and the referee should not "go too far" and "go too far".
There have been many managers in history who have been fined hefty for this, but as long as it has an effect in the end, it is not a fine for nothing. It's also a team game, but it just extends from inside the field to off the field. Only those who are really in this league can understand that the NBA league is not simple.
Regarding this game, the most discussed after the game is, of course, the "penalty issue".
On the Reddit forum in the United States, a post called "Rocket Super Home Whistle" was topped to the top position, and the number of replies and views ranked among the top of the new posts.
As soon as you go in, you'll get all sorts of GIFs and screenshots, and then all sorts of comments and comments.
The traces of this ball is simply "protective" are too serious! Double the number of free throws? Why not just let the Rockets start with a 20-point lead?
Look at the players of my lake, both twin towers are fouled and sent off! Kobe Bryant also committed 5 fouls! Nash 4 offenses! Fortunately, there was no overtime, otherwise I don't know if it would have been a penalty to play only on the bench.
Inside information about this ball Adam. Schieval was on the scene and he was there before the game with James. Harden shook his hand cordially. There are pictures and truths.
This should be saying, hey, don't worry about going to the show, I'll help you with everything.
This kind of dog. penalty! I think the referee should be fined!
Fucking! bullshit! call! Another pinnacle of bullshit whistles!
It's almost the same at home, and Rockets fans are collectively silent, because there are indeed too many "bias whistles" in this game, which is completely unjustifiable in terms of a simple home whistle.
Look at this ball, Donkey almost got knocked out of his teeth by Howard! There was not a single foul! As soon as he touches his opponent, he is a whistle! This is truly stunning!
The NBA should fire the referee for this game!
I don't understand the upstairs! Now that we're fired, isn't that tantamount to telling you that we're wrong? Shady? Therefore, these referees will definitely be fine! I can guarantee it! Maybe it's even the Alliance's instructions?
In fact, it doesn't matter if the scale changes, and the referees are all human, so it is impossible to be as accurate as a robot every time. But I'm afraid of double standards! I give him a "body hair whistle" but don't give it to you, you see what happens? This is tantamount to indirectly manipulating the results of the game! If the whole game wasn't for the Lakers' efforts, they would basically be on their knees!
You Lakers fans finally realized the pain of our Kings fans back then?
I think we should imitate the European League, and the referee implements a relegation system, so that there is a "source of living water"!
Due to the gradual lifting of the ban in China, Tang's reputation in China has gradually expanded, and many basketball commentators have begun to publish comments about him, and some companies and manufacturers have also smelled the smell and began to find a way to contact No. 29 on the other side of the ocean.
As for the "age gate"? Come on? You typed it out, who cares about this now???
Even if it was Yi Di, if he could play it back then, as long as he could become an all-star, would you try it? So many people are still talking about this bullshit? In competitive sports, everything is based on results and results.
However, now Tang Qian doesn't have the time to pay attention to these domestic endorsement calls and emails, because the playoffs are elimination, and he has not reached the last step, and he is at risk of being out at any time. He didn't want to be distracted. After explaining Zhou Zhiru, Tang Qian continued to devote himself to personal and team training.
Because the Lakers' record continues to be high, many famous commentators and reporters are now poaching and breaking the news, both good and bad. Anyway, as long as someone watches, is willing to watch, and is willing to pay. Now after the Lakers' training, there are many people squatting outside every day, ready to take the opportunity to engage in a few "exclusive" and a few "exciting".
In the other division of the West, the Spurs and the Thunder are also fighting, although not as smooth as the Lakers, but the Spurs have also led the Thunder by a large score of 2-1. It's not that the Thunder team is not strong and doesn't play well, but it just can't defend against the Spurs. For example, in the first game, they were bombarded by the seemingly "aging" Spurs for 122 points, nearly 20 points and took away the game. The double score is more than half of the Thunder's, but they still can't win the game. The overall outburst of the Spurs finally made people see the terrifying power.
Miscontrol is the biggest problem.
The Thunder made too many mistakes in the playoffs and didn't play well enough at key moments, and even lost 112-77 to the San Antonio Spurs in Game 2. The score difference was more than 30 points, reaching 35 points. The biggest place directly broke the gap of 40+ points! In this game, there was no resistance at all, and it was the purest ravage.
Although the third game relied on crazy rushing for rebounds and barely won, the price was too great, and the main players of the Thunder played more than 40 minutes. Rao grabbed 52 rebounds, covered 10 big hats, and made nearly 10 steals, but the score was still only a single-digit advantage. This is still the situation where the Spurs' collective shooting percentage "hits the ghost". The team shot less than 40 percent. So, in this round of the series, the advantage of the Spurs has been reflected.
Taylor also doesn't have much free time to contact Tang Qian during this time, because her global tour has begun, and the latest stop is, the other side of the ocean, the magic capital. The time was May 30th, and as Tang Qian said that day, it was a prophecy, and the tickets were all sold out in less than a minute after they were released. This directly surprised Taylor, and he repeatedly said on the phone whether Tang Qian had a "prophetic attribute", and it was really her "lucky star" or something.
Tang Qian actually knew about this for a long time, so he only told Taylor in advance, and he himself was not too surprised.
After saying that the performance was cheering, Tang Qian hung up the phone, he actually didn't care too much about Team Rocket.
Winning is basically a foregone conclusion, and it depends on whether you can complete the sweep. Again, the key is ......
He looked at the Spurs highlights playing on the TV screen, and he looked a little solemn.
On May 12, U.S. time, the Lakers and Rockets will play Game 4 at the Toyota Center.
Before this game, the Lakers' upper echelons released a word that if they could sweep, they would give everyone on the scene a customized Lakers "sweep badge" for this season. Although it is not particularly valuable, it is of great commemorative significance to fans. In some aspects of the team's operations, Jenny is too much more than Buss Jr. Now many small shareholders of the Lakers are also starting to waver and slowly move closer to Jenny's side.
Current Lakers general manager Mitch. Kupchak always felt that if the Lakers were to re-enter the Finals this season, then Jenny would definitely use means to pressure Buss Jr. to step down. This is not too difficult, because it has been proven that Bass Jr. has completely fallen into passivity. The relationship with the legendary star of the Lakers is not as good as Jenny, the team's operation ability is not as good as Jenny, and even the eyes of the players are not as good as Jenny, so ...... The core of the Lakers in the future is difficult to be on Buss Jr.'s side.
No, at least for now, the 29th is already from Jenny's faction.
He's even directly Jenny's relative, Bonnie. Lashlin personally went to the NBDL to dig it up, this kind of acquaintance and support, but anyone with a little conscience will not take the initiative to erase it. How did old Bass trap Kobe Bryant? Among the details, Mickey. Kupchak knows it. So cultivating an absolute core that belongs to one's own heart, especially a long-term core, how important is this, how can he not understand? Only, his bet failed.
His bet back then was Bynum and later Howard, and it turned out to be all dismal bets.
Look away, the potential of this oriental center will actually reach this point. Exercise. Sex can keep up again, at least in the next 5~7 years, the Lakers will have a record guarantee. If you can hunt a few more stars in the middle, who knows if it will soar again? You know, the Lakers have always had a tradition of robbing stars.
Although Johnson and Kobe Bryant are both home-made.
Kobe Bryant said unceremoniously in an interview: I want to solve the problem in 4 games, and I don't want to go back to the Staples Center to play the Rockets.
He is an authentic "old-school player", and he has never known what Liukoude means when facing opponents, at least Kobe Bryant before the Achilles tendon tear. What about this season? The more prominent, the more unconvergent.
The strongest peak season, the last season, still converge a fart?
If you win, you will be the champion, and if you lose, you will be the number one loser, and there will be no chance to do it again.
In that case, why are you so polite?
The last madness is the paranoid characteristic of Kobe, just as the Bull Jordan publicly made a similar declaration of "The Last Dance". There's nothing to be polite about, because I'm going to win to the end, all teams, all opponents, all enemies.
How polite are you with the enemy? Do you think it's the league star league pattern after '03?
Tang Qian also said: The next game back to Staples will be to face another team, Spurs or Thunder.
Gasol and Nash were not so direct, and it was also because Tang Qian and Kobe Bryant were "outstanding" enough.
Faced with this question, both Harden and Howard were a little "hesitant" and "not strong enough to answer". Some people talk about Harden's wrist sprain, but in fact, with the physical fitness of NBA players, it is still okay to play with a bandage. No matter how bad it is, you can close it, right? Moreover, which NBA superstar doesn't have a little injury on his body? Haven't killed with injuries? It's not a big deal at all, because if he really can't play, he will go straight to the injury list. But even so, the spirit of Team Rocket No. 13 has long been dispersed. Even earlier than the team's Howard was gone.
This is not a black Harden, until 2017, Harden actually had the habit of crashing in key games in the playoffs.
For example, this season's original plane, he just played like a dog. , it's a mess.
The Rockets didn't even make it through the first round.
37.6% base shooting, 29.6% three-point shooting rate, if it weren't for the free throw shooting rate reached 90%, the data is completely unbearable.
There are many similar, in 2015, the 19-point playoff reversal, Harden was abandoned in the final quarter, and in the sixth game of the Western Conference semifinals in 2017, Harden handed over 10 points, 7 assists, 6 turnovers and 6 fouls. In the 2015 Western Conference Finals, the last game, the key game of losing and going home, the Rockets boss Harden who could have handed over close to 28 + 8 + 6 + 2, 47% + 43% + 87% data in the series was able to hand over an astonishing 2 of 11 shots in the knockout game, 18.2% + 0% + 76.9% of the data, and only scored 14 points. And most crucially, he only scored 3 points in the second half, missed all 5 shots, and if it wasn't for free throws, he would have swallowed zero.
So it's the norm for Harden to drop the chain in key playoff battles, and McHale began to bluntly sarcastically ridicule Harden for not having a leadership spirit after stepping down as Rockets coach in the future. TV commentator former Rockets star Charles. Barkley also said that he thinks James. Harden has a mental disorder similar to Jerry. West, LeBron in the first year of the group. James.
It's not a matter of ability, it's a psychological problem.
The playoffs are different from the regular season, not only the change of scale, the fierceness and cruelty of the confrontation, but also the time and stage that test the will of the stars. At least as far as Tang Qian's memory as of September 2015 is concerned, Harden is a typical case of losing the chain in the playoffs. It's not that he can't change in the future, but that's in the future.
In the face of the Lakers' words, McHale countered: History is made by people, the Rockets have great potential, and they will not let the Lakers complete the sweep.
It's a pity that the head coach, especially the one who doesn't have absolute control over the team, is talking in vain.
No nutrition, no sense.
ESPN is also funny here, Tang Qian's current performance in this round of the series is impeccable, and he has scored 18 points, 17 rebounds, 6 blocks and 2 assists in three games, 16 points, 20 rebounds, 7 blocks, 2 assists and 1 steal, 20 points, 22 rebounds, 10 blocks, 2 assists and 1 steal. The hit rate is also quite superb, and it is like 2 people in the previous round.
Especially for opponents, it is also about Dwight. Howard's repression is even more significant.
Howard played worse and worse game by game, making himself a little self-defeating and frustrated.
Therefore, ESPN can only take Tang Qian's last game and push away his teammate Jordan. Hill made a fuss, saying that he was a thug, the chief spoiler of the locker room atmosphere, and that keeping him was a time bomb for the team. But when ESPN people wanted to interview the person in question, Jordan. Hill, but Hill's face changed, and he walked away without looking back.
Nonsense, what is the image of the Lakers No. 29 in the Lakers right now? What combat power? Do you want me to be punched?
It's hard for others to say, but this Eastern center really dares to do it with his teammates, Howard, Bynum, unconvinced, and what he did with him, how many of them flattered? Now that I heard that he is still a candidate for the next core of the team, do you think I have broken my brain to provoke him at this time?
Regarding this remark, Tang Qian smiled and said: So I am a player, and they are keyboard warriors.
For a while, following the word "touch porcelain", the word "keyboard man" has also become a popular word in the United States.
And the makers, without exception, are the Lakers' No. 29.
Tang Qian couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, is this also a kind of cultural export? Well, who calls English words are always so unimaginative. Translating it into Chinese and then translating it back is much more subtle and interesting.
Game 4 of the series against the Rockets, it seems, the atmosphere is lighter than any series that's still going on.
PS: It's still a big chapter, it's hard to say anything else in the field, the number of words and quality won't be less, who is the next opponent? Everyone has probably guessed it~ But I still have to complain, the environment of this small local Internet café is really bad, and this one dares to be called an Internet café? Charging so much per hour? Served!
