0969: [Guidance from Lord Duke]
The fourth match between the Purple and Gold and San Antonio was uneventful, without a hint of surprise, and it happened so lightly and then ended lightly.
The Spurs didn't even show the momentum to say, 'I have to rewrite history and be the only team in the NBA to make a 3:0 comeback.'"
After all, it's a group of old people, and it's inappropriate to use blood at such a time.
Everyone, even Spurs fans, has lost faith in winning, so why not simply and calmly accept the huge difference in strength between the two teams.
The suspense of the game was broken in the third quarter, and it was Steve Nash who stepped up to play the finisher tonight. With Snubidu and Kobe Bryant playing non-stop, Nash seized the opportunity, scoring 24 points in the third quarter and breaking his playoff scoring record with 49 points in the game.
This put Nash in the spotlight after the game.
After all, the victory over the Spurs was a historic event for Nash, and it meant that he was finally able to raise his hand and say a resolute goodbye to those years that had passed, and he had finally reached the Finals, and it was the one he had beaten the Spurs to enter.
It means a lot to him.
Although this time is different from the past, he is no longer the 'son of the wind' of the year, but he has finally made up for the biggest regret of his career.
"I'm thrilled that for an old man to be able to get to such a statistic and make it to the finals in history, something I would never have imagined before this season."
"I really want to play to my former team-mates, Sean Marion, Amare, Raga, Boris and Quentin... Joe...... A lot of former Suns players have said that we once wanted to cross the mountains, and I finally did it tonight. I finally beat the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference Finals......"
At this point, Nash even choked up a little.
Looking back on the whole career, the past is replayed in my mind, and after countless twists and turns, when I was about to leave the NBA, I finally fulfilled the dream I had many years ago, defeated the Spurs, and entered the Finals.
"Thank you Snoopy, thank you Kobe, thank you to all the players in the Purple and Gold. They are the best teammates and we are the best team. Here, basketball is very pure, and we never divide ourselves in the locker room based on seniority, fame or wealth, and everyone brings out the best in themselves on the court. ”
"On any other team, you'll never find a guy with a base salary who knocks on the leader's pole every day, I say Snoopy...... That's why he's rarely broken records this season. You won't see the rookies swaggering into the homes of the veterans, eating and wiping them down, and going home with a lot of Romanée Conti. ”
"Even Bryant, everybody would make fun of his hits, and although he had an ugly face, he never really got angry. In fact, his shooting percentage this season has been very beautiful, and he is, after all, the best scorer in the game. ”
Steve Nash devotes a lot of words to praise the Purple and Gold.
His tirade has been an important source for reporters to decipher why the Purple and Gold have been so successful this season.
After all, everyone only knew that the atmosphere inside the Purple and Gold Army was good, and everyone on the court could have a high degree of freedom. But I really didn't expect it to be this good: after all, most players just treat basketball as a job, and they don't have the habit of making friends in the locker room. And there's a lot of competition within the team, and everyone wants to have more balls and more tactics. The most important point is that there will inevitably be privileged players and classes in any collective. But the Lakers turned out to be so... Unbridled? Bottom-salary players knock Snoopy's bamboo poles? A rookie who just entered the league went to the old player's house to eat and drink? Even laughed at Kobe's shooting percentage?
This is a big drop from people's imagination.
But in fact, Nash just said the tip of the iceberg, if they knew that the team laughed at little Atay for being abused every day, and went to buy blue fur dog pills to deal with his wife... Is that still there?
"The Lakers' team atmosphere is really rare in the NBA. However, I think this is not replicable. After all, not everyone has a big heart, a noble personality, and... All-round skills. Other superstars can't imitate even if they want to. ”
Chris Webber said seriously on TV.
Words like this always make Charles Barkley fall into self-doubt: Am I still a dog?
Obviously, this sycophant who is better than blue makes him feel a great shock.
In fact, Chris Webb represents the rapidly pervading atmosphere in basketball circles: in sports circles nowadays, there are very few people who criticize Snoopy, open any newspaper, flip through any basketball column, and you can see 80 or 90 percent of what you can see is praise of merit.
This is in stark contrast to what the little duke was referring to when he first joined the alliance.
It can be said that Dugg single-handedly convinced the entire basketball critic circle.
Now even the veteran dog Black Bill Simmons has begun to secretly praise Snoopy. In his article about LeBron James two days ago, he praised LeBron for his epic playoff performance this season.
But at the end of the game, he said without a trace: But the most brilliant way is not how brilliant the data is, but to keep the team in a superior position forever. There's another superstar this season who can always get the team to settle the battle in the third quarter. Although the stats are not as eye-catching as LeBron, there are also miracle performances of four doubles in the playoffs, and more importantly, he has made the team all the way to the elite with ease.
Isn't this Kwasnoopy?
Bill Simmons may not want to admit it, but his fingers tapping on the keyboard are extremely honest.
To be honest, his article annoyed LeBron James a lot.
The previous tirade made him excited, after all, once Simmons's data control is operational, the detailed historical facts, exquisite data comparisons, and gorgeous language set off James incomparably tall, which is simply a superstar who can overwhelm an era and even drag Michael Jordan off the horse.
However, this last sentence.
It's like blowing you into the sky, and suddenly a bow comes and shoots the eagle.
The first 20,000 words are so detailed and meticulous that the praise is for the last two lines? Is it just to set off Snoopy greater?
a chicken.
James was worse than drinking a pot of flies.
This discomfort led him to further vent his anger on the Chicago Bulls.
The Bulls still put Dwight Howard on the court in Game 4, which made Snoby and Nash, who were sitting at Kobe's house watching the game, feel quite puzzled.
As the game progressed, Dug's prediction was gradually verified.
Howard is indeed the culprit who destroys the Bulls as a whole, and he is neither able to coexist with Pau Gasol nor willing to block Derrick Rose. As a result, Chicago's two offensive launch points were greatly compromised.
On the other hand, the Heat took advantage of your illness to kill you, and under the leadership of LeBron James, the whole team continued to infiltrate the Bulls restricted area like a crazy torrent.
Chicago's defensive system has been crumbled down by Miami, and the offensive end has come to a standstill.
From the very beginning of the first quarter, the game was polarized.
The Heat's lead is getting bigger and bigger, and the Bulls' collapse is silent, like falling into a silent ambush.
"I'm suddenly glad now."
The black mamba drinking goji berries was like a girl waving her wings, and said softly: "If we don't trade with the bull, I'm afraid the situation will be even worse." ”
When Bryant said this, Nash nodded seriously.
He thought about it if Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol stayed on the team. They will still repeat the current situation on the inside, and Kobe Bryant and himself may not be able to form a chemical reaction with Howard.
In this way, the team may be worse than the Bulls. The Bulls have a deep lineup, and they can also consume some contradictions internally.
But on the Lakers' side, Kobe Bryant is a high-minded man, and only Snoopy can make him twist his fingers. Once he gets up with Howard, the whole locker room will suffer.
Coupled with McBrown's poor dominance, I'm afraid he won't even make it to the Western Conference Finals.
Call!
Nash thought and let out a long sigh of relief. He felt extremely fortunate that Snoopy had come to Los Angeles, otherwise his move to join the Lakers would have become the last regret of his career.
The two old men were in touch at this moment, and subconsciously looked at Duge.
This made Dugg feel weird.
In fact, if these two old guys are Teresa Teng's fans, they will definitely sing affectionately: If I hadn't met you, where would I have been, and how would my life .......
……
To the Duke's dismay, Daphne returned.
However, she suddenly stopped herself from making the next move, and her reason was: you are about to play in the finals. This Finals is very important for you, and if you win the championship, you'll be locked in the number one player in the league. The commercial value and influence will rise to an incredible level, and the market value of the Lakers will also rise. So, for the sake of a better future, you bear with it.
Forehead....
"But what does this have to do with our intimacy?" Dugg is going crazy.
"My father warned me that women would drain men of their strength. Now is the moment of truth, let's just keep a polite distance, okay? And I was really scared of that happening, I was afraid of the pain. Daphne was both straightforward and shy.
This is special..., my father-in-law killed someone.
Dugg sighed helplessly.
Why is there such a scientist father-in-law? Where did he get his knowledge of physiology?
"If you're afraid of pain, you can take anesthetics." Duge muttered angrily.
"Huh? Is it really possible to inject anesthetics? Daphne turned out to be very serious and naïve to ask.
The Duke walked to Kobe's house with a stomach full of depression.
Kobe Bryant also looked unhappy, he sat in the flower bed at the gate and sulked, and said something in his mouth: "Can you blame me for this?" She came to her period to mean that she had a problem, not mine. Don't I want to have a son? Don't I want her to get pregnant? ”
As soon as he saw Duge, his stomach was full of bitterness.
The middle-aged man's depression was all written on his face.
Du Ge didn't know how to comfort the black mamba who was unsuccessfully driven out by his wife, but just patted him on the shoulder, and sighed in his heart: It's the same end of the world. I don't know what's going on over there.
Old Na... What else can I do, just bite the bullet and do it. He also asked for a new wife, so he hurried to run at high speed, pulled the tachometer, and did a good job of running-in. Save the future... What's that.
"Let's go watch the last game of the Bulls vs. the Heat."
The two big men sat for a long time, and finally decided to go and watch the fifth game of the Bulls vs. the Heat.
In this game, sure enough, the Bulls didn't put Howard on the starting lineup, and even Howard put on a suit.
The answer is actually quite simple.
After the last game, Lord Duke finally couldn't help but talk to Tom Thibodeau on the phone. He gave Thibodeau some advice.
But Thibodeau is a non-ambitious manager, and he was afraid that he would be criticized for making this decision, so he took the opportunity to reveal the news in an interview with the Chicago media: Snoopy thinks there is something wrong with our starting combinations, so we will make adjustments next.
With Snoopy's endorsement and the coaching staff deliberately releasing the news that Howard would be in the cholera locker room, the people of Chicago immediately stood on the side of the team and agreed to DNP Howard.
However, this made Howard hate Dugg.
He even tweeted a P-image of Snoopy, wearing the No. 10 Lakers jersey, sitting on Thibodeau's head.
His displeasure is self-evident.
Dugg was upset about this, believing that he had done something wrong. He shouldn't care if the bull lives or dies, Thibodeau is too uncourageous. This kind of private conversation, you take it out and say, isn't it deliberately provoking trouble?
As a result, Snoopy didn't answer Thibodeau's phone call at all after that.
On the contrary... He answered all the calls from Ross and Butler.
He didn't say anything with Rose.
But tell Butler that the most important thing right now is to rally around Derrick Rose, support him, and win with him.
There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment, then agreed.
Butler, this guy is a rebellious person, and no one is convinced. But Snoopy's words alone are the golden rule.
By the time the Duke and Black Mamba turned on the TV, the game had already reached the fifth minute.
The Chicago Bulls lead by eight points at home.
The starting lineup of Derrick Rose, Jimmy Butler, Rohr Deng, Pau Gasol, and Joakina Noah embarrassed the Heat, and they never dreamed that the Bulls would explode into such a strong offensive and defensive standard after Snoopy's guidance.
Defensively, in particular, they were like a tough fishnet, trapping the Heat and never breaking free.
The Heat's rapid offense was held back by a resilient approach, forcing them to engage in positional warfare.
"It's also a great reference for us." Kobe Bryant said to Dug.
Dugg thought for a moment and nodded.
He recognizes some, but not all.
