Seventeen seconds, the Lakers' possession, the Clippers are still two points behind, which requires them to use foul tactics, but the Clippers have no chance to pause, can only attack from the baseline, whether it is on the scene or off the court Clippers fans dare not expect a miracle to come, because it is too difficult.

Phil Jackson used up the penultimate timeout, just 20 seconds.

"They're going to use foul tactics, don't rush and we wait, wait for their fouls to avoid mistakes, as long as they foul and get to the free throw line we can win, believe in yourself. We just need to use up the last seventeen seconds. Phil Jackson's voice echoed in the ears of every Lakers fan, while the Clippers bench was much quieter, "We can only foul, we fight until now there is no reason to give up, we have to stand and lose if we lose, no one can give up, miracles always come from ourselves and not from others." Whether they hit two free throws or two free throws, as long as they get the ball, they will immediately hand it over to Gu. ”

Mike Dunleavy's eyes fell on Gu Fei's body, the sweat on the head of the man who was only a little over 20 years old had already formed streams, and the bandaged gauze turned crimson from faint red at the beginning, and the blood seemed to break through the shackles of the gauze.

In the box above the Staples Arena, Nell Olshu's expression was unusually solemn, and in front of the window of the box stood Fang Kaiyan.

Fang Kaiyan, who was wearing a black women's suit, retracted his gaze and turned to look at Olshu, "Nell, how did you talk to Phoenix?" ”

"It's almost, if we had a strong inside line, we would never have been dragged until now." Olshu said through gritted teeth.

"What about Rashid?"

"Still working on it." Olshu changed his words, "I'm sure I'll bring him to Los Angeles." ”

"Well, we need them, Roy and Joaquin are still young, they still need to learn, and if they can come, it's a good learning opportunity for both of them, and the future of the Clippers needs them."

"Yes." Olshu nodded in agreement.

The referee blew the whistle, and the Clippers fans in the scene made a final shout in their already hoarse voices.

Byram has been put off the court by Phil Jackson, replaced by Odom, Gasol stood on the baseline and took over the basketball, the next Clippers were eager to stick together with the Clippers players and not separate, with a whistle, the nine people on the court seemed to explode, the sidelines looked extremely chaotic, in the chaos, Kobe Bryant ran out of position with the help of Odom's cover, Gasol immediately sent the ball over, Kobe just dribbled Gu Fei pounced on it and took a foul.

Fifteen seconds were left before the end of the game.

Listening to the loud boos from the familiar Staples, Kobe's expression was still as cold as usual, and this free throw will be extremely important to him for the Lakers.

Swish!

Swish!

The two free throws hit steadily, like a fire that burned out the last straw in the hearts of Clippers fans.

"Tyson!" Gu Fei shouted at Chandler, even if everyone gave up, he couldn't give up, even if there was still a second, he was not willing to give up.

Four-point difference, backcourt serve, fifteen seconds.

Kobe Bryant followed Gu Fei closely and tried to hinder Gu Fei's catch, but even so, Gu Fei ran out of position.

Chandler immediately sent the ball over, and as soon as Gu Fei received the serve, Kobe Bryant and Ariza surrounded him.

didn't choose to pass the ball, retreated and pulled out of the position, then accelerated with all his might, and forced through between the two people who closed the door and defended.

Gu Fei was racing against time, and the Lakers tried to intercept Gu Fei up and down, trying to delay Gu Fei's movements as much as possible, even if it was only 0.1 seconds, they were happy to see it.

After Odom and Fisher, Gu Fei is getting faster and faster, and behind him are the Lakers players who are chasing.

After the violent friction between his feet and the floor, Gu Fei jumped and shot one step away from the three-point line, looking at the basket without even adjusting.

The arc that the basketball crossed over Staples was still the standard Gu Fei three-pointer.

Swish!

The crisp sound of wiping the net continued the Clippers' playoff journey.

The fans at the scene were cheering, they saw hope, they have super trust in Gu Fei's three points, and now there are 10 seconds left to trail by 1 point, using tactics to make two free throws and two hits, which is three points, a three-point shot can drag the game into overtime, if two free throws or even miss, you can still see the hope of victory, Clippers fans began to use their already hoarse voice to create the biggest boos to interfere with the Lakers.

Cautious Zen master Phil Jackson used the Lakers' last timeout setup, and now the Lakers are feeling the pressure.

Paul was grasping this long pause to quickly deal with Gu Fei's wound at the corner of his eyebrows, when the gauze took off the cracked corner of his eyebrows, it looked a little terrifying against the background of blood, and the cotton ball that possessed the disinfectant rolled over the cracked corner of his eyebrows, Gu Fei looked like the wound didn't feel the disinfectant at all.

Almost the same as just now, Kobe received the ball and Gu Fei fouled at the first time.

Although the baseline fans behind the rebound were eager to take off their underwear and interfere with Kobe's free throw percentage, when Kobe Bryant hit the first free throw, Mike Dunleavy replaced Mike Roberts, Tyson Chandler, and Andre Miller with Steve Novak, Chalmers, and J.R. Smith, plus Artest on the court, five players with three-point shooting ability were put on the court ready to make a final stand.

Kobe Bryant threw the second ball into the basket without shock, and completely pushed the Clippers to the point where they had to choose three points.

With a three-point difference and 8 seconds left, the backcourt serve forced the Clippers to choose only three points.

In addition to Gu Fei, there are four players with good three-point shooting ability who will undoubtedly share the pressure on the defensive end for Gu Fei, Novak and Chalmers are all outside the three-point line in the frontcourt, Artest serves from the baseline, and Jr-Smith is in the backcourt and Gu Fei is ready to receive the ball.

Such an offensive position forced the Lakers to break down their tight defense, which also created an opportunity for Gu Fei to break through to the front court with the ball.

At the last moment, people will always look forward to the appearance of heroes, and Gu Fei is the hero that Clippers fans are most looking forward to at this critical moment.

Catching the ball and speeding up, as before, Kobe Bryant Gu Fei, who was guarding in the front court, threw the last ball, almost pressing the whistle basketball at the end and leaving Gu Fei's fingers, Gu Fei shot with a huge backlash in order to avoid Kobe, Gu Fei, who lost his center of gravity in the air, slammed on the floor, looking at the basketball that was flying higher and higher Gu Fei closed his eyes, this time he failed to change the fate of the Clippers.

"Bang!"

The sound of smashing the frame and the whistle at the end of the game pierced Gu Fei's eardrums at the same time, Gu Fei closed his eyes tightly, the coldness of the floor and his soaked back were completely in contact, and that trace of coldness could not dispel his disappointment.

With the sound of the basketball smashing the frame, many Clippers fans left tears, they had a great start, they had the best chance, but now they had to swallow the pain of defeat.

"It's all over, the young Los Angeles Clippers lost to the Los Angeles Lakers for the second year in a row, I think there are no losers in this game, the best Lakers are on the way to the championship, the young Clippers are still on the way to growth, the current defeat is for the future to better accumulate strength, I believe that next year they will be stronger, next year they I have reason to believe that they will be the most favorable contenders for the O'Brien Cup, defeat is only now and not forever, young Clippers don't be depressed, tomorrow will be better." The on-site commentator said emotionally, but these words are not bad at all.

The moment Olshu saw the basketball smash out of the basket, the moment he was disappointed, if the team's interior line could have been a little stronger, the game might have been a different situation, but there is no regret in this world.

"Nell, excuse me, we can speed up our actions, and I hope that next year we can raise the flag of the championship." Fang Kaiyan walked out of the box after speaking, she knew how painful Gu Fei would be in her heart at the moment, but this is the NBA, this is the game, what she can do is to make up for those shortcomings for him as much as possible.

"Boy, you've got a lot of chances, I don't want to see you hang your head like a, knowing that I was still on the bench to help them run errands in my second year." Kobe Bryant pulled Gu Fei up.

"? I never will! Next year, I will definitely stand on the stage of the finals and wear a championship ring. Gu Fei watched Kobe Bryant bite out word by word, whether it was his facial expression or tone, it seemed that the impact of the key shot just now did not exist at all.

"Gu, you missed a key goal, do you think the team's defeat is your reason? Do you think this is the main reason why the team lost this series when Pau Gasol, Anzu Bayram, and Lamar Odom completely blew up your interior line? ”

'We've done a good job, I should have put that ball in and if I was given another chance I firmly believed I could do it, I wouldn't lose confidence because of this defeat and it was me, not my team-mates, who were to blame for the loss. After Gu Fei answered, he walked straight to the locker room.

Although his journey to leadership has just begun, he has already learned to carry the team on his shoulders.

With seven difficult games to take out the Clippers to advance to the Western Conference Finals, the Los Angeles Lakers played six games against the Rockets with Yao Mai in the Western Conference Finals, and finally the Lakers kicked the immortal Xiaoqiang out of the playoff stage, and the Magic team in the East advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals after a difficult 4-3 victory over the defending champion Celtics who lacked Garnett, and defeated the Cavaliers led by James, the most valuable player of the regular season, in six games in the Eastern Conference Finals to advance to the Finals.

The young Warcraft harvested its own bitter memories on the stage of the finals, and the 0:4 sweep made Warcraft return with loss.

The curtain of the 2008-2009 season slowly closed, Ke Ru won the championship as he wished, and Gu Fei, who he sent away, is now "vacationing" on the beach in Hawaii. No one blames Gu Fei for the Clippers' outing, and everyone is firmly convinced that the Clippers will be stronger in the coming year.

"Roaring Celestial Venerable Arrives on the Los Angeles Journal" -- that's the headline of the Los Angeles Times' sports section.

And this rumor kicked off the trading curtain in the summer of 2009. (To be continued.) )
