Chapter 208: Overturning Together

Totoro rarely didn't speak out, and Da Yao and those Rockets players didn't intercede with Adelman for Totoro, because it would really be Totoro's fault, and this problem was not his first offense, he had a few times in the regular season because no one was in sight and caused the team to lose, but he didn't expect him to repeat the same mistake in the most critical playoffs.

And it doesn't matter if you can't play in this game, My Neighbor Totoro waved his fingers and calculated, he has praised seven technical fouls in the playoffs so far, and he will face a ban in the next game, the Rockets are a little stronger than the Spurs, but this is absolutely powerful and limited, no one thinks that the Rockets can defeat the Spurs on the premise of giving up a Totoro, and no one thinks that the Rockets can win this series in the case of losing all the first two home games, this Totoro was sent out of the Spurs to win, and the next Totoro was banned Spurs and the next city, Isn't it the Rockets who lost both of their home courts?

"Hey!"

Seeing Totoro sitting alone on the massage chair and bowing his head without saying a word, Adelman didn't want to say anything, Totoro's status was there after all, even if he made a big mistake, Ah Shuai didn't dare to do anything to Totoro, saying two words like this is already the limit, and it seems that he has indeed learned a lesson, Adelman doesn't want Totoro to have a memory for a lifetime, he just hopes that he can keep this kind of pretend for a while longer, until the end of this playoffs.

"Guys, we're not at the end of our rope, the Spurs are leading now, but this is our turf, our home stadium, it's the Dragonborn Cave Arena, do you want to watch those bastards in the Holy City easily take away our home advantage?"

"I don't want to!!"

But the days still have to live, the game has to go on, although Totoro is not there, the big mistake is made, but the head coach still has to find a way to unite the remaining players to fight for the game, Adelman hurriedly thought of the only way is to make a pot of "chicken soup for the soul" for those simple-minded black players, to stimulate their fighting spirit to create miracles.

It's just that the black players don't feel the most, and when Adelman says the six words of the Dragonborn Cave Arena, the most difficult thing to calm down is Totoro himself, a stadium named after himself, but he has personally disgraced his holy land.

At the end of the 15-minute break at halftime, the Rockets played a good half-court shot, Battier, Calderon and Iguodala's inaccurate three-pointers in the first half were recovered in the second half, Randolph also suddenly rose to score consecutive points under Duncan's watch, Yao Ming also played steadily, and the Rockets gradually caught up with the score.

But at this critical moment, the chain reaction after Totoro got off the court began to appear, maybe it was Ginobili who no one continued to stimulate, he came out of the sheath again, and successively used his serpentine breakthrough to tear apart the Rockets' defense, first assisted Horry Sr. and Finley to hit two three-pointers, and then completed two one-on-three wonderful pull-up layups, and the Spurs pulled the score away a lot after Duncan and Parker went off.

This will be Popovich's turn to strategize, he is relieved to let Shi Buddha and the French sports car rest, on the contrary, the Rockets, as the chasing side, have to let Yao Ming and his main players overload the game, this situation is exactly the same as the first half, but the active side and the passive side exchanged a position, is this not a reincarnation?

At the end of the third quarter, the Rockets' all-main force faced the Spurs in the first half of the quarter, and the bench was only able to close the score to 3 points, and as soon as the fourth quarter came up, Adelman had to let the Rockets, who had been fighting for the whole quarter, go to rest, but Popovich seemed to expect the Rockets to do this, and put Duncan and Parker on the court at the beginning, and the game immediately collapsed.

In just three minutes, the Spurs double-core stretched the score to 15 points, Shi Fo and the French sports car teamed up to play a wave of 14:2 attack waves, A Shuai couldn't take the little giant who didn't get enough rest on the court, Popovich also changed the demon knife to the court, the Spurs are equal to a superstar, two All-Stars hit the Rockets, one and a half All-Stars and a quasi-All-Star, the Rockets are still the lagging side at this time, and naturally they can't make any waves and fall to the ground.

My Neighbor Totoro was banned, the Rockets lost at home for the first time in the second round, and the gap between the Rockets and Spurs without Totoro and the Rockets and Spurs with Totoro is clear to everyone, especially in the second game when Totoro is destined to not play, and the Rockets' second home court is also unlucky.

If the two home courts in a series are lost, the Spurs' two home courts will follow, and even if Totoro returns in the third game, under the huge morale gap between the two sides, maybe the Rockets have the possibility of being swept by the other side.

After the game, the media fans criticized Totoro endlessly, and of course, Totoro's loyal fans also fought back for him on the Internet, and the Internet immediately scolded and fought for days.

In the past, how could there be criticism of Totoro on the market? When he was in the limelight, everyone was respectful to him, and the sycophants were about to shoot to the sky, but once he made any mistakes, Team Rocket's form was not optimistic, and these people who originally knelt and licked him instantly changed their faces, and various experts began to point out Totoro's shortcomings and shortcomings, as if he was really too overestimated before, and everyone wanted to step on him.

For this situation, Totoro is not at all surprised, what virtues will he not know about these media? And those fans who have sprung up to accuse him like mushrooms after a rain, those are all black fans who are usually jealous of his achievements, they couldn't find any black spots in themselves before, and now they finally make them proud.

In this regard, Totoro has been closed for a period of time recently, and the press conferences invited by major media have all been pushed off by him, and the outside world generally believes that Totoro has coaxed him, but he himself is not a person with this character.

He did something wrong, but he won't allow these people to bully him like this, but basketball players, what they want to say must be based on strength and performance, and he doesn't say it now to wait for his comeback opportunity, even if the Rockets are won by the Spurs in the second home? Who says a team can't win if both home games are lost? There are several examples in the NBA, and he's planning to lead the Rockets to a fifth miracle.

When he had actually accomplished the miracle, he would appear in the media and slap the faces of those who were now arrogant and arrogant, and the frustration would be much more powerful than if he were now insisting on empty words.

The Rockets lost the game, as did the Cavaliers, who were held in the East during the same time period.

The Cavaliers faced the Magic in the second round, and the outside world previously thought that this should be an equal and equal game, after all, the Warcraft at the peak of the current period is known as "the only man who can replace James alone", but the two teams really played each other in a one-sided situation.

Although the Cavaliers have tailored a lineup for their little emperor, they can really play against strong teams, and Cavaliers fans find that there is no use for anyone else on the court except James, or that as soon as the Magic team blocks the connection between James and his teammates, the other players of the Cavaliers are like fools, and they become unable to play at all on the court.

And the Magic team seems to have a much more balanced lineup, if the Cavaliers go all out to encircle Howard, the Turkish agents of the Magic team can also stand up and take over the game, if they block Tekoglu with all their might, the Warcraft will turn over the river and the sea on the inside, even if they use the strength of five people to seal both of them, the little Nelson can also jump out and bring tons of damage to the Cavaliers, the Magic team has too many players to play this year, and it is not comparable to the Cavaliers who rely on only one James.

"Today we lost at home, but I don't care about the victory of this game, today our players are not in good shape, some of the balls that should be thrown are not thrown, it's nothing, we can't feel cold in every game, as long as we throw all the balls that should be thrown, then it should be the Magic players who surrender today, the winner of this series will definitely be us, we are just temporarily behind."

The little emperor said nonchalantly at the post-game press conference, obviously he was shirking the responsibility for the players, and then shirking the responsibility for himself, saying that a loss was not a fight, and then showed great self-confidence in the next victory, and made a guarantee in front of the media.

Although it seems that every NBA star says this when he loses, and the little emperor himself thinks that he is prevaricating well and has a high emotional intelligence, in the eyes of Totoro, he is really stupid to say this.

How can a knight defeat magic? The lineup gap is so big, even if he can break out one or two games against the sky, he can't lead the Cavaliers to the final victory, at least in the eyes of industry professionals, the Cavaliers have less than 4% chance of winning.

So why did James blatantly make promises in front of the media? This is nothing more than the hearts of these black players who have to get by, anyway, even if they can't fulfill their promises, there will be no loss for them, they still take their annual salary of tens of millions of dollars, and live their own leisurely life, the anger of the fans is insignificant to them, anyway, after a long time, everything will pass, let the fans down again and again, they will not lose a piece of meat, why do you care so much?

However, I have to say that this is why there are more fans among Totoro fans than black fans, and the biggest difference between the number of fans of other stars and black fans, if Totoro and James Kobe Bryant also have 100 million fans around the world, Totoro's appeal is definitely stronger than the latter two, because Totoro almost never says big things that he can't do, and he rarely disappoints those fans who like him.

"I think Totoro is still too young, the success of their first round is completely due to the weakness of the opponent, this Western Conference Finals we should face the Spurs, that guy's talent is unmatched, but now should be the time for him to pay tuition."

The next day, before the Lakers and Hornets game began, Kobe Bryant, the star of the Lakers, was interviewed by a local media outlet and gave his own evaluation of yesterday's game between the Rockets and the Spurs.

Although Totoro and the Lakers do not have any big grudges, the scene is also a little hot after a few encounters, and there is also a little conflict between him and Peter Pan, Kobe Bryant naturally will not say anything good about them.

But the boss just pointed out the country at the pre-game press conference, and during the game, the Lakers were milked to death by his sentence "We should play against the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals", Chris Paul continued the superstar performance against the Suns in the first round, and this night in the Staples Arena shined all over the court, and he alone regarded the entire Lakers defense as nothing, and he alone cut 34 points, 15 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals. In the third quarter, several misplaced heads-up Kobe Bryant scores also added a lot to his performance.

Under the lead of Queen Bee, David West cut 21 points and 10 rebounds, and boxing champion Tyson Chandler also frequently worked in the Lakers' restricted area, cutting a big double-double of 15 points and 14 rebounds.

But the fans really blamed the Spaniards in this game, although he couldn't beat Garnett, Nowitzki's historical level of PF, but he was not reduced to the point where he couldn't prevent David West, 80% of the credit for the opponent's bull in this game was attributed to Paul, as soon as the queen bee broke through Fisher's sister-in-law, he had to fill in the position, because his other team members Bynum or Odom had no sense of helping defense, but the Spaniards passed the ball immediately as soon as they went to fill the queen bee, Ninety percent of David West's points are basically scored in open positions, and in this case, if West dies and doesn't get a high score, he can delete the game.

In another game, the last matchup of the semifinals between the East and the West, the Green Shirts in the East also overturned, in the North Shore Garden Arena with a glorious history, the new Eagle King was not afraid and in awe at all, and punched the old master to death with a spirit of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and the Green Shirts were thrown into two mid-range shots by Joe Johnson as soon as they came up, and were deducted two violent dunks by Josh Smith, and then by the convulsive man Crawford slammed into two convulsions and three points, and they fell behind by 10 points for no apparent reason.

Later, although the Celtics counterattacked slightly under the leadership of Garnett, the Hawks firmly controlled the situation on the field, and the players in various positions of the Hawks also felt bad, Garnett dragged the lunar eclipse down and the opponent could still throw the ball with one hand to hit 2 + 1, Pierce sealed his hand to Johnson's eyes, and the opponent could still hit three points, the most feared thing on the basketball court was that his hand felt cold, but the more feared thing was that the opponent's hand felt too unnatural, and all kinds of unreasonable goals were smashed on his head like no money, Celtic inexplicably surrendered their home-court advantage.
