Chapter 168: The Battle of Fate
In fact, after Lin Fei was injured, he was also very puzzled, Li Tuo told himself that he could still support it for a while, why did he collapse so suddenly? Looking back on these treatments, what Li Tuo said to himself basically had a little bit of error! What is the reason for this? Could it be that Li Tuo's medical skills have not yet reached home? However, Li Tuo's statement is surprisingly consistent with his own injury. (
m_--) What the hell is going on? Lin Fei didn't understand it in his own heart!.
However, all the players of the Warriors are currently in Los Angeles, and they can rely on the doctors here and those state-of-the-art equipment! But do they apply to Lin Fei's situation? It's really hard to say. However, from Lin Fei's heart, he is still more inclined to Li Tuo! After all, Lin Fei grew up in China, and there was an inexplicable mystery in what he studied! Especially for things like traditional Chinese medicine, Lin Fei has always felt that many things in traditional Chinese medicine cannot be explained by the current science, so Lin Fei believes in Li Tuo even more! However, now Lin Fei obviously has no way to contact Li Tuo! You can only rely on the medical team by your side!
And the final result given by the Warriors' medical team was that Lin Fei was advised not to play in the second game! The specific reason is also quite vague, that is, Lin Fei's body is already in a state of fatigue and is not suitable for playing! Such a conclusion is undoubtedly what D'Antoni wants, he does not want to sacrifice Lin Fei's future in exchange for the victory of the next game!
Lin Fei obviously has no way to overturn the medical team's decision at the moment! After all, if Lin Fei doesn't follow the practices of the miscellaneous medical team, the Warriors even have the right not to pay Lin Fei's salary! Therefore, Lin Fei can only be obedient!
Lin Fei was injured again, and the Warriors couldn't sign any more suitable players temporarily, so the Warriors could only rely on the current remaining lineup to face the battle, and the Warriors only had 9 people left, and almost couldn't arrange two sets of lineups! Such a lineup against the extravagant Lakers? Obviously this is not a level!
There is no match where a player is waiting. Even if it's Lin Fei, it's not good! Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, two days after Game 1 as usual!
Although Lin Fei is going to be absent. But the two teams still attracted the attention of the whole United States! After all, the popularity of the Warriors has been completely mentioned by Lin Fei! And add that their opponent is the Lakers, who were originally one of the most popular teams in the league, so that's it. Naturally, it is extremely concerning!
This time, the Lakers still field their proud lineup, the luxurious Big Four, plus world peace! They claim that they can finish the Warriors in half a game, which is obviously arrogant for that. Even a Warriors full of injuries can't stand it!
Perhaps because of the Warriors' lack of personnel, in order to reduce the fatigue level of the players, D'Antoni had to slow down the team's offensive speed, which was nothing more than to save the players' physical strength!
However, once the speed slows down, the Warriors' offensive power will naturally be greatly weakened, and the Warriors will not be the kind of team that runs rampant on the court and makes opponents fearful!
The original gap. Plus the weakening of the Warriors. Naturally, the game is a very asymmetrical contest! That's even bigger than the difference between the strongest team and the weakest team in the league! There is often a saying in the league: there are no weak teams in the NBA! This does make some sense, after all, the players who can mix in the league basically still have a certain strength, as long as they are given enough opportunities, they will have a moment of explosion! But, let's not forget, it's not just the Warriors who are at an absolute disadvantage. The mentality is also at an absolute disadvantage! Many of the teams that beat the strong with the weak can basically be explained in one sentence. That is, never ignore the heart of a champion, but the current Warriors team does not have a champion heart at all! …,
Although the Warriors players are also working hard. But after all, the court is still a place where strength speaks, and the Warriors received an even more tragic defeat! They lost by 20 points again, but there was one statistic that made the Warriors even more sad, none of the Lakers' five main players in the starting game played more than 25 minutes, that is to say, the Lakers even used the bench to play with the Warriors on the court most of the time, and the Warriors couldn't even win the Lakers!
Perhaps, at this time, people all over the world know what a Lin Fei means to the Warriors! The Warriors team with Lin Fei is enough to kill the Clippers, and then fight the Lakers for 300 rounds, but without Lin Fei's Warriors, they can't even take the Lakers' bench!
The Warriors are almost saddened to return to their home court! The Warriors have two home courts of their own! Although there is a certain gap in the strength of the two teams, if the Warriors can take advantage of the home-court advantage, they may be able to achieve a weak victory over the strong.
It wasn't until the day of the competition that another copy of Lin Fei's physical report came out! Lin Fei is basically allowed to play!
Lin Fei has always been obsessed with this defeat and can't let it go! He has always been very stubborn that he has to get up wherever he falls, and whoever he loses to must win back in front of him!
When Lin Fei practiced the ball, he practiced shooting crazily! Constant three-point line outside the shot. Even in practice, his scoring looks extraordinarily strong! In fact, in the last game, Lin Fei's shooting was already 23 of 32, which was surprisingly high, but they lost the game, and Lin Fei even felt that he could continue to shoot wildly, and only by shooting could he win!
Lin Fei has an advantage that many top stars in the league do not have! That is, Lin Fei basically doesn't complain about the incompetence of his teammates, he always keeps strengthening himself to make up for the incompetence of his teammates, which is very respectable!
The big wins in the first and second games can be said to have put the Lakers on the threshold of the Finals with one foot! However, their opponent is the Warriors, who have had many miracles on their own, and it is they who have created the unique Spurs tragedy in the history of the league! Since they can contribute to the Spurs tragedy, they have the potential to make the Lakers tragedy!
However, the Lakers seem to have more helpers! For example, their brother team in the same city, the Clippers, because the Clippers were eliminated by the Warriors, they especially hope that the Lakers can help them get revenge! Paul gave Nash a move, preventing Lin Fei's shot, and letting Lin Fei's breakthrough! After all, there's only one thing you're focusing on. This is to force Lin Fei to pass the ball as much as possible, Lin Fei's passing power is really not worth mentioning compared to his shooting!
I don't know why. At the start of the season, everyone wanted to beat the Warriors, but now. The Warriors have such a situation, but it is extremely pitiful! After all, they have such a luxurious configuration, and now they are in such a situation. If they have a full lineup. The battle with the Lakers could well have been one of the most intense collisions in league history, but there is no such opportunity right now. There are even many people who compare this Western Conference Finals matchup with the original competition between Adelman's Kings and Jackson's OK combination! If the Warriors are a healthy team, they do have a lot of similarities! The offense of the two teams is not a real attacking system, but an open-ended style of play without a fixed routine, which basically does not rely on the implementation of fixed tactics or coordination. It's simply creating open shots by constantly running. Even on the court, there is no big difference in the position of each player, everyone on the field has to be able to hold the ball, and basically have a good ability to shoot from the middle and long range. And the cooperation between the players is tacit! To say, there are differences! At that time, the Kings' requirements for players were: no player can stick to the ball for a long time, see things clearly, have a fast brain, and then be like a cow. With ease, he unloaded the other party without touching the flesh. There are no interior players with low-post offensive power, and in 200102 season, the Kings have averaged more than 2 assists per game, but the highest is only 5. This evenness and harmony is rare in the history of the league. But that's not the way the Warriors play. They are almost for the purpose of scoring, so it is easy for Lin Fei to appear. Or the case of Curry's sticky balls! However, the Warriors' offense was rarely interrupted! That is to say. In the end, the effect of both teams is similar, they can form a smooth attack, and the style of play looks extremely gorgeous! …,
However, if the Warriors are compared to the Kings, there may be many people who are unwilling! Why? Because the peak moment of the Kings was 02, that is, that year, they and the Lakers with the OK combination were eliminated in seven games in the Western Conference Finals, although after that, that game was still quite controversial, but it is an indisputable fact that they lost, is it that the Warriors are now the same fate as the Kings at that time? After all, the current Lakers still have a remake of the OK combination! The offensive talent is not even inferior to the OK combination at that time!
At least, for the Warriors, they're very reluctant! Because, such a Kings team has never broken through the Western Conference Finals, that is, it has never entered the Finals! Although the Warriors are not afraid of such doom, because they have already reached the Finals last season! Still, they are not afraid of being like the Kings, after reaching their peak in 02, they have been declining, and they still can't make the playoffs until now!
These may be topics outside of the competition! And the question about Lin Fei may be the most important concern for the Warriors!
Lin Fei's state of injury and stoppage is already worrying, but it is not only these that make those Lin Fei's fans worry!
It is said that Lin Fei has helped the Warriors win so much in his own way, people should know that most of the time, Lin Fei's choice will be right, but when the Warriors lose 2 games, there are still people who question Lin Fei's style of play, even if Lin Fei got an amazing score of 76 points, there are still people who question that Lin Fei is simply alone, and he completely ignores the team's offense! That defeat may be the only regret of Lin Fei's high score. Chamberlain scored 100 points, his team won, Kobe Bryant scored 81 points, his team also won, but Lin Fei scored 76 points, his team lost, isn't it a big pity? Next, what Lin Fei was thinking about was obviously to use a victory to prove his value of 76 points!
Because of Li Tuo's emphasis on Lin Fei, Lin Fei didn't go to Li Tuo anymore! Now, in his own situation, Li Tuo has done his best, and after the last treatment, seeing Li Tuo consuming his heart like this, Lin Fei was really a little reluctant to go, so he simply didn't go to him! The treatment directly according to the arrangement of the team's doctor can also ensure that Lin Fei can play in the next game!
Lin Fei didn't feel any discomfort this time, for him, as long as it wasn't a knee and ankle problem, there was nothing wrong! Bleeding a little, getting knocked a few times, or something, is normal. He even joked. If you let other players know that they have taken three days off due to fatigue, won't it be a joke?
The Warriors are at home! Lin Fei has lost two games in Los Angeles before. But after returning here, Lin Fei is still the well-deserved king of this city! Maybe only at this time can Lin Fei have a little bit of comfort!
It's still a very noisy home field! Since Lin Fei's outbreak, the Warriors' home court has become the noisiest home in the league. This may also reflect the city's enthusiasm for such a team!
Perhaps it was Lin Fei's strong request, D'Antoni even put Lin Fei in the lineup! It can't help but surprise many people! But given the Warriors' serious injury problems, it may not come as a surprise!
The two teams fight for the ball, and it's still Clauderson and Howard! This time, though, Clauderson was lucky. Dial the ball to Aix easily!
Aix got the ball and stopped directly! Give the ball to Lin Fei!
And in that moment, the Warriors lost the opportunity to break fast!
Lin Fei was even a little puzzled about Aix's approach! Because Aix was originally able to attack quickly with the ball on his own, Aix has such a ball-holding ability, and D'Antoni did give Aix the right to hold the ball by himself! At least, that's always been the case with the previous Warriors! But Aix didn't do that, which seems to be a bit contrary to the Warriors' "fast" style of play! Lin Fei glanced around. My teammates don't seem to be running much, either! …,
Didn't you play a game? The team changed its style of play? Why hasn't anyone told me about it?
In fact, when the Warriors played the last game, they reduced the team's offensive speed, and it is no longer the kind of play that is all about speed! In the last game, Lin Fei didn't play, and during training, Lin Fei basically practiced shooting. So the coach didn't tell him, and Lin Fei's style of play originally relied on his super personal ability. He can exist almost without relying on any tactics, relying on his own shooting alone to score. Therefore, even if someone explains the team's playing style to Lin Fei, Lin Fei may not be able to play a role!
However, although the Warriors slowed down, they still handed over the ball to Lin Fei!
At this time, the Lakers players were already quickly retreating to their halfcourt, and the defense was basically in place! The Warriors must have a half-court offense that they're not very good at!
Half-court offense, although the overall physical strength of the Warriors team can be easily saved, but to let Lin Fei implement half-court offense, it will obviously greatly reduce his activity space, and the attack range will naturally be reduced! In this case, Lin Fei also needs more runs to complete the figure of getting rid of the defender before he can shoot!
Lin Fei is still organizing attacks near the midfield!
That's what he did after a game break! I don't know what state it is!
The Lakers used Kobe Bryant's Lin Fei, but Lin Fei directly used a crotch change of direction and directly shook Kobe back two steps! And after such a distance, Lin Fei flashed directly from Kobe Bryant's side again!
It is these two steps that once again make everyone believe that Lin Fei is undoubtedly the strongest player in this league! Although he took a break, Lin Fei's speed was still crazy!
After flashing Kobe, Lin Fei still took a series of steps, running directly to the basket, Nash originally planned to come over quickly to make up for it, but when he saw Lin Fei's weird dribbling line, he basically didn't make any moves, and watched how Lin Fei completed the shooting!
Lin Fei took a step outside the three-point line and jumped directly, still shooting as usual!
Three-point hit! Lin Fei! Lin Fei! Why be so arrogant? Did you know that your outburst could immediately provoke a strong wave of counterattack from the Lakers?
Lin Fei's three points are to announce to the world that as long as he is on the court, he will never give up any game, and as long as he is still running, the Warriors have hope of winning!
Until this time, Lin Fei was still the first on the FMVP rankings! Although he has not played in several playoff games, no one wants to take such a player off the list, and every game he plays is great! Judging from Lin Fei's state in this game, so many fans really didn't hurt him in vain!
The Lakers will naturally not be scared by Lin Fei! After all, they also have a group of superstars. It's often one person who is scared, and it's rarely a group of people!
The Lakers still let Nash get the ball! After a few games, Nash has roughly figured out the Warriors' style of play, and how to crack the Warriors' defense has long been a problem! ……,
