Malone soon knew that he had made the stupidest mistake of his life, but it was too late to step forward and fight Battle.

Zhang and Kidd had teamed up to drag the Mongols to the bench, and the referee quickly entered the field to control the situation, and he had no chance to get back on the field unless he really went out to fight. But the problem is that in order for him to reach Battle, he has to push away his teammates and referees first, and then rush to the Lakers' bench to find Battle and fight him......

Belch...... The danger is too great, and although this is the home court of the Jazz, security personnel are already surrounding the Lakers' bench, and it is impossible for the home fans to rush through the layers of blast shields to support his-finding behavior.

It's really no different from begging, the NBA rules that bench players can't enter the court at any time, or they will be ejected!

But if you are stupid enough to rush to the opponent's bench, then you will definitely be pressed to the ground and hit shit by a bunch of substitute players who can't play, and Bruce Lee won't dare to rush to the middle of a bunch of muscle sticks 1V12!

Therefore, Malone could only pretend to be dragged by his teammates, but considering that he didn't take out the posture of going up to fight in the first place, and Battle's movements and acting skills seemed to be better than him, this struggle backfired, and successfully made more neutral fans laugh at him for being strong outside.

The world's TV is infinitely looping the picture just now, and Malone was basically thrown away by Battle from behind by his neck, and it can be clearly seen from the slow motion that Battle also deliberately added strength when he threw Malone at the end.

This is, of course, a premeditated and malicious foul, and nothing to boast about.

But what is helpless is that most of the fans are not afraid of the excitement, and a considerable number of Lakers fans are not ashamed but proud, and they actually regard Battle as the team's hero.

Speaking of which, Zhang Mao has rarely maliciously fouled opponents this season, but just like countering violence with violence should not be advocated by people, someone must do it. In the same way, on the court, this kind of evil thing must be done by someone, and it is only good that Battle is willing to sacrifice himself.

This clash interrupted the game for more than ten minutes, and if you add Mason's previous injury and the suspension of the watch caused by some skirmishes, today's game was delayed by various clashes for at least 20 minutes, and the majority of fans naturally have reason to believe that this is all a conspiracy.

Why do all kinds of conflicts arise every time you encounter a focus battle?

Is it really because the competition is too intense?

Isn't this a conspiracy of advertisers?

The majority of fans watched the advertisements that were playing on a loop in front of the TV, and of course there was reason to believe that this was a conspiracy!

This is likely to happen again when the Lakers and Bulls stage the Battle of the Century in the Finals, and the happiest people at this time should be the rich advertisers from all walks of life.

By the time the game restarted, the Jazz fans at home had long since ignored whether the league would punish them for racial discrimination, and the entire Energy Solutions arena was filled with all kinds of insults against Asian and Chinese Americans, and even many fans who had thrown things at the court had been expelled from the stadium by security, which was why the game was delayed for more than ten minutes.

Battle has long been ejected from the game by the referee for a "second-degree malicious foul", and it is even more appropriate to be suspended for the next game, although this will not have any impact on the overall strength of the Lakers.

The Lakers' main team all returned to the court after more than ten minutes, Zhang Mao did not go off the court to avoid the limelight as some fans thought, and the 16-point lead in the final four minutes is not an advantage that makes the Lakers have no worries, and he and the main team need to hold on for another two minutes to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Harris has reason to be more cautious, and the unexpected break of more than ten minutes is enough to give Malone a sigh of relief, at which point any carelessness is not a mistake that a championship team should make.

The Lakers' caution was correct, the Jazz hit both free throws, and then Malone, who turned his grief into strength, assisted McDyce to complete the dunk, and the Jazz instantly closed the gap by 4 points.

This is where Zhang can be useful, everyone knows how important this offense is to the Lakers, and once they can't score, the Jazz are likely to narrow the margin to single digits in one fell swoop, and at that time, with the Jazz's morale boosting, it is not impossible for the Lakers to accidentally turn the tide.

Zhang Wei also knows that the current Ma Long is even more terrible than before, just a thought made himself suffer a great shame, Ma Long's heart of course wants to be ashamed, if he can help the team complete a super reversal in such a desperate situation, then the humiliation he suffered just now will not only be completely washed away, but also let himself complete a legendary road.

That's right, but I'm sorry, Zhang Qi is not ready to make himself a legendary background.

The Lakers attacked, Zhang Mao did not make any unnecessary moves this time, and single-handedly made a jumper under the defense of the Jazz two, which immediately brought the Lakers' lead back to a safe 14 points.

Salt Lake City fans are eager to pull Zhang out at this moment, and one of his offenses has changed the situation from a possible "single-digit gap" to a "14-point lead", such a sharp contrast makes the Jazz players about to explode Lai's morale is emptied like a deflated ball in a second, but the Lakers players immediately breathe a sigh of relief and stabilize their position.

But the Jazz still had a chance, and just 15 seconds later, the returning Malone made a superb back-to-back step to earn two free throws on the big himself, and let the latter go straight to the court.

The Lakers are passive again, they can only use O'Neal Jr. again, and there are no other interior players available on the bench.

The Jazz players had a glimmer of hope at this time, but they didn't expect Zhang Qi to suddenly pacing over, and under the vigilant eyes of the Jazz players and Ma Long, Shi Shiran sent a sentence: "Today Sunday, the postman is off duty."

Ma Long didn't know what evil he had fallen into, he only felt that his meridians were in chaos, and these two key free throws were aimed at for a long time, and in the end, he missed both free throws!

The Jazz players were stupid, including Malone himself, who was stunned and unable to move as if he had been killed, and the Jazz fans at the scene couldn't accept such a cruel fact, Malone, who had a free throw shooting rate of nearly 80% in his entire career, would miss both free throws, is this the fate of the Western Conference Finals?

Zhang Qiu's instant curse was successful, and he saw the landing point of the basketball and flew forward to protect the rebound.

The Lakers players immediately launched a counterattack, and Kidd received a fast-break pass to force Stockton to complete a key score.

The morale of the Jazz players has completely dropped to the bottom, and Malone's two key free throws have become a rope to hang them, and Malone has not performed any since then, and he seems to have really left work.

Stockton and McDyce were unable to carry the team through such a miraculous comeback, and the gap between the two sides has remained around 15 points since then, and there is no suspense.

In the last 2 minutes and 05 seconds, Zhang Wei grabbed a frontcourt rebound on McDyce's head, and then dragged it for 20 seconds in the second offense before he scored the ball with a low-post turnover jumper, at which time the home fans who scolded him for almost half an hour quieted down again.

The score was 105:90, and the Lakers still maintained the difference at 15 points when the game entered the final two minutes of the game.

Everyone knows that the suspense of victory and defeat was completely killed, Zhang Ji shot 3 of 3 in the last four minutes, and he used his inexplicable stability to make the Jazz once again shrouded in infinite darkness every time he was about to see hope.

Now, the Jazz have been completely kicked into the endless abyss, and the goal they have been striving for since the beginning of the team has once again failed.

Malone and Stockton's eyes were blank, after 13 years of ups and downs, they finally fell to the Western Conference Finals, as if they had suffered some curse, maybe this team is destined to never touch the floor of the Finals.

Zhang Yi was quickly replaced, and the koala baby at this time was already loaded with 47 points, 16 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 steals and 4 blocks to enter the finals for two consecutive years. In the six games of the entire series with the Jazz, except for an early break in Game 5, the remaining five games all scored more than 45 points, and one of them scored 50+. Looking back at the entire series, he scored a total of 262 points, 75 rebounds, 29 assists, 19 steals and 17 blocks from the Jazz, averaging 43.6 points, 12.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 3.1 steals and 4.2 blocks per game.

At this moment, even the most demanding media people in Chicago and Salt Lake City can only use "God's subversion" to evaluate Zhang Zhuxi's performance in the duel, and his perfect performance in this round completely surpassed Jordan. Since then, the fact that Koala Baby has become the new "God of Basketball" can no longer be stopped by any voice, and even if he loses to the Bulls in the Finals, his status as the league's first person will no longer be questioned.

Let me ask, can Jordan lead the team to defeat such a powerful Jazz despite injuries to the team's defensive core?

There may not be an answer to this question, but what is certain is that even Jordan at his peak will not be able to do a better job than Zhang Mao at this time, this koala used his incredible individual ability to force the Lakers without Mutombo to the Finals, and the title of the first active player is well deserved.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Malone, who had been overdrawn in his body, fell to the ground and collapsed into the arms of Stockton, who rushed to support him - this scene is also a classic image in NBA history, two old partners with perfect professionalism but lack of sportsmanship, and they left this season with such a back, and also left this season with the most promising dreams.

Commentators from various countries can only sympathize with this pair of old fellows who are haunted by fate at this moment, Stockton and Malone's careers always seem to be inseparable from the fate of the Western Conference Finals, and the Jazz have hated the Western Conference Finals three times in the past 13 years, this time they still failed to get what they wanted, and they fell on the floor of the Western Conference Finals again, which may be the last time they will see the floor of the Western Conference Finals.

Zhang Qi was naturally surrounded by crazy reporters after the game, but in the face of 20,000 Salt Lake City fans who wanted to kill him, Koala Baby naturally would not be too arrogant, and he said very unhappily: "We took the trouble to collect wins and records in the first two rounds of the regular season and playoffs, and it was not until the overall score was 1:2 that we felt that winning the championship was not something you wanted to win, but a win." If you ask who we don't want to play against, there's no doubt that the Jazz are the last thing we want to face, and we're one step away from defeat, and they almost changed history. ”

This hypocrisy and shamelessness will never change the opinion of the fans in Salt Lake City, but at least he won't be beaten up by the fans tonight.

Zhang Zhu's words are not completely polite, the two elders did make the Lakers almost stay in the Western Conference finals, Mutombo's absence was a great destruction of the Lakers' defensive system, if it weren't for the Jazz's interior lineup of two forwards, he would be difficult to turn the tide even if he played center.

"We were blown away by the Jazz in a cold sweat, but we also brought up our potential ahead of time, and now we have only one opponent in front of us, and I hope they are ready to come to Los Angeles and we will definitely greet them."

Zhang Wei did not say a word to mock Jazz at the scene, but at the post-game press conference, the scene was different, and he immediately changed his face.

"I have to thank the fans here for being able to reach such heights in this series and enjoy such a fantastic victory at the end, and it was their constant racism and trash talk on the sidelines that inspired me and my teammates, and I'm glad they were with me to witness this great victory."

Zhang Wei didn't dare to be so presumptuous at the scene, because he was afraid of being beaten by the home team's fans. But when it came to the post-game press conference, he certainly wouldn't let go of the Salt Lake City fans, who didn't disgust him a lot during the game, even though the abuse didn't affect him at all.

The Salt Lake City media wouldn't let Battle go, and they soon asked about the foul, which Zhang knew he couldn't avoid.

"I know you're going to ask about that foul, but I'd rather answer Malone for the time he injured Mason, but that leads to a rebuttal, if the guy who was supposed to be sent off didn't continue to be on the court, would the guy who foul him maliciously later?" Zhang Fu's next words made the referee a little unable to get off the stage, "I don't approve of countering violence with violence, but why things always end with violence in the end, when a person who should be punished does not get the punishment he deserves, then the person who is punished in the end will become two." ”

Zhang Mao's words naturally caused more criticism from reporters, but he could choose not to answer these questions, who stipulated that players must answer every question?

Battle didn't come to the press conference at all, his foul was called very bad, and the additional penalties and fines for him after the league game were certain, but Battle was also sure that Zhang Ji would definitely help him get it, such as sending him a random one from his luxury camp in the 16-car garage for his birthday or something. In this way, his fine can be regarded as a miracle!

Zhang Wei is really ready to do this, the alliance will fine 50,000 yuan, and he will send 100,000 yuan of cars; The alliance fined 100,000 yuan, then he will send 200,000 cars.

Battle should hope that the league will punish him a little more, so that he can drive a real luxury car.

In the end, the focus of the reporters was naturally on the trash talk he said to Marlon.

But at that time, except for the players of the two teams, others didn't know what he said to Ma Long, what exactly caused Ma Long to miss two free throws at a critical moment? This is also the most important thing for journalists to know.

"It's nothing, I just told him 'the postman doesn't work on weekends', but I didn't expect him to react so much, maybe he really should get off work."

Zhang Fu's words are too heart-wrenching, but the reporters in Salt Lake City can only glare at him angrily, after all, this kind of trash talk is too civilized, who can blame if he is tricked?

To put it nicely, if there is any regret in Malone's NBA career, it can only be that he was born in the same era as Jordan, and he encountered a more perverted koala when he was old, and in the end he could only blame himself for not having a championship life.

In the endless anger of the team's elimination, the media in Salt Lake City also quietly gave birth to a thought that the postman, who had not been absent from work for 13 years, might really have to leave work this time.
