Chapter 663: What is Love
Kenny Smith was poisoned by Barkley, but the criticism and disapproval of Shaw is still spreading, and almost all basketball pundits and celebrities believe that Shaw is not capable of finishing the Finals in the next two games. The reason is still so simple, everyone is not optimistic about the Knicks' combat effectiveness, and at the same time, the exposure of the sloppy shortcomings means that the Knicks' trump card means are shackled by the Lakers.
In the midst of thousands of doubts and pessimism, the Thunder's two youngsters, Westbrook and James Harden, both expressed pessimism about the Lakers, both of whom are Californians, and emotionally speaking, they are undoubtedly closer to the Lakers. But since seeing the dashing and sharp jumper at the UCLA training gym that night, they have not had any confidence that the Lakers will win a championship this year. Because Xiao Shao is really terrible without shortcomings, Xiao Xiao can already explode any defense on offense when he can't jump shots, and when he has a more unscrupulous jump shot, he wants to defend him unless he has an AK47 in his hand.
In an interview with a radio station, Westbrook made his opinion clear: "I don't know why everyone in the basketball world is watching the sweeping rhetoric of the Dash, and everyone still knows too little about the Dash. As a friend who knew him before the draft, I can say that the player in the entire NBA knows him best, and maybe not one of them. The first time I met this guy, he was a caddy who had been stuffed in by Lenny Kuhn's exhaustive connections, and he couldn't even shoot a ball. However, in less than a month, someone who knew nothing about basketball had improved by leaps and bounds to be able to go head-to-head with every player in UCLA, even me. Then, he announced his participation in the draft. He was then selected for the lotto............ And then all the stories. Everybody already knows. It took him just two seasons to reach the top of the league, and he broke almost every scoring record he could. ”
"Now, he's saying he's going to sweep the Lakers, and everybody says it's crazy, it's a completely thoughtless statement. But, let's look back and think about it, it took less than three months for a layman who couldn't even shoot a ball to enter the league as a lottery show. Isn't that more difficult than sweeping the Lakers? ”
"I met him again the day before yesterday at the UCLA training gym, the day after the Knicks beat the Lakers, and instead of going back to New York, he went back to the place where his dream began. At the time, me, James Harden and Byron Davis, we saw firsthand that he found the rhythm of the jump shot, and he started to make jump shots! Guys, I don't think you guys have figured out the horror of this. ”
"Learning to shoot means he can go into crazy mode around the clock, whether it's in the first quarter, the second quarter, or the third quarter. When Xiao can go crazy at any time, can the Lakers win? At least. I'm not optimistic at all. ”
"The Lakers' confidence right now is built on finding the holeholes, however. They really don't know Xiao Shi well, and Xiao Sao's evolution ability is something that time can't catch up. ”
"I'm going to lock in tonight's game, I want to see how terrifying the flawless chic in the ultimate state really is!!"
Westbrook's visit was not widely disseminated.
But at least there's one thing people in the Los Angeles area already know, and he doesn't mean it's out of nowhere, and he says that the sweep is justified, and that's what Westbrook said, he's learned the skill of the jump shot!
And by this time, it was already too late.
Or rather, to no avail.
The game arrived at half past seven Eastern Time that night.
Madison Garden was crammed to more than 20,000 fans, and every seat was not vacated. James Dolan and Donnie Walsh entered the VIP box early in the morning, and both looked a little excited as they looked at the full crowd of fans...... This is the Grand Final!!
And in the same room, even more excited than them were Eric and Bobby.
The father and son were invited by Xiao Xian.
Eric is the gardener of the chic family, while Bobby is a die-hard fan of dashing. It's a long story why they're here, but the beginning of the story isn't good at all. Last summer, when Chia was having a barbecue party at the villa, Eric was the gardener of Chick's family but was bribed by a bad reporter to film the party with a pinhole camera.
This incident unsurprisingly pushed Xiao Squills to the forefront of public opinion, but unexpectedly, Xiao Sage did not receive public abuse and criticism, but instead gained a lot of praise, and even made beer and barbecue parties, a popular thing in China, popular in North America.
And Eric was reviled by the entire state of New York for this incident, and at the same time received angry accusations from his son Bobby.
When public opinion was all pressed on Eric, Xiao Shi learned the reason behind Eric's candid filming, and it turned out that the father did this because of his son's illness. Xiao forgave him and called on the fans to forgive him as well, even providing Bobbi with medical bills and promising him to watch the game on the sidelines if the team reached the finals.
Since the tickets on the sidelines were sold out early in the morning, they were invited to the VIP box to watch the Knicks' first home Finals game in twenty or thirty years with the team's big owners and general managers!!
"Hey, Dad. You see, the stadium is all broomsticks, and we're going to smash the Angelenos hard tonight. Bobby said excitedly as she waved her little fist.
"Of course, Xiao Shi has already said that we will sweep, then we will definitely sweep!" Eric told his son with great certainty that he never doubted it, because Chick had never let Knicks fans down, and since he said it, it would definitely happen.
And that's why Knicks fans dare to bring broomsticks to Madison Garden.
With the addition of Xiao Xiao, the morale of New York fans is getting higher and higher, and more and more attention is less and less to the visiting visiting team, even if it is a powerful team full of heritage like the Lakers, they still let out the most vicious boo. In terms of their attitude towards the away team, they have changed drastically from before...... Knicks fans used to cheer for the away team when the away team star played a good game. They will even shout MVP. The former Kobe Bryant enjoyed such treatment at Madison Garden. But now all he heard was boos and... Go back to Los Angeles. Some nasty. will even let him go back to Eagle County directly.
Amid the boos, the Lakers entered the court.
When the boos reached their climax and gradually ended, the DJ began to shout out the name of every Knicks player in a long note, and whenever this time came, Madison Garden immediately resounded with a tidal wave of cheers and applause, and even Nate Robinson enjoyed the treatment of a top hero.
Starting with Nate Robinson, the Knicks' players slowly moved from chasing the light to the center of the court. Wave to the cheering and screaming fans all around.
When the main players were introduced, the cheers gradually escalated, and by the time the starters came out, the screams had taken over the vast majority.
And when the DJ at the scene dragged a long note and shouted...... Below, let's welcome... From China... Six feet five inches tall... The shooting guard... Our King of New York...... Chic !!!!!
There was no cheering, no screaming or applause in the whole Madison Gardens, only more than 20,000 people shouted in unison!!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
In an instant, the momentum exploded!!
The entire Madison Garden seems to be incarnated into an ancient battlefield, murderous!!
The killing of this monosyllable was roared out in unison by more than 20,000 people with their throats pulled at their throats, and the momentum was unstoppable.
The so-called home of the devil. That's the scenario.
The T-NT commentators who sat on the live broadcast couldn't help but be shocked.
"The Knicks' home court is really horrible, when more than 20,000 people are roaring there. I got goosebumps all over my body. Fortunately, my heart is actually towards the Knicks, so these momentum did not make me feel weak, but made my heart boil a little bloody! Earl Johnson said hard into the microphone on his lips, trying to make the audience in front of the TV hear his words more clearly, but his loudness did not stop the home sound of Madison Garden, even if he was a little hoarse, but the audience in front of the TV still heard more of the tsunami-like killing sounds.
"Even a football game doesn't have such a strong momentum!!" Charles Barkley also shouted loudly.
Kenny Smith on the side heard this, and couldn't help but hurriedly retort loudly: "Compared with football games, this momentum is still a bit weak......"
Kenny Smith shouted and realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere, why were there so many glasses around him looking at him, and... Why did the whole stadium suddenly fall silent?
It turned out that when Kenny Smith was yelling and trying to say that the football game was more vibe, he reached out and motioned for everyone to stop shouting.
When he saw the chic gesture, the killing sound on the scene quickly stopped. Xiao Sa also asked for a microphone from the technical desk.
"I'm very happy and excited to finally see everyone on the stage of the finals." Xiao Sa made an opening remark with this sentence, and his words instantly won a full house, and Xiao Sa also bowed to the fans in the full house, and then continued: "This way, it is a little unbelievable, but we have indeed stepped on the floor of the finals solidly. And he has already reaped two victories......"
Speaking of which, Xiao Shi paused slightly, which means very simply... There should be applause here.
Indeed, the applause at the scene quickly came like a tide.
"Before the game, I said I was going to sweep the Lakers. Everyone brought in brooms as well. So... Let's witness a victory! There's no reason for you to sit in front of the TV and watch the victory, and when you arrive at the stadium, you accept defeat! ”
After Xiao Sao said this, he walked to the sideline and handed over the microphone, and the audience was cheering and screaming.
Soon, the game officially began, the two starters walked onto the court and made a slight handshake before taking their respective positions, as the referee's whistle blew, Tyson Chandler and Andrew Bynum jumped almost at the same time, but after all, Tyson Chandler was more experienced, and he used his fingertips to dial the basketball to Xiao.
Xiao Sang firmly controlled the ball, and did not habitually launch a quick and lightning first attack, but slowly pressed down the rhythm.
The Lakers' defenders were a little late to react, they saw Xiao Sao controlling the ball, and immediately ran away, for fear that Spark would complete the first attack of the opening game with great speed. In particular, Derek Fisher and Mr. World Peace have a bit of a stupid bird flying first.
Due to the delay of the signal, CCTV on the other side of the ocean at this time was still loudly introduced over there: "The Lakers' starting five tigers tonight are still familiar lineups, center Andrew Bynum, power forward Pau Gasol, small forward Ron Artest, scoring guard Kobe Bryant, point guard Lao Yu Fisher." And there haven't been many changes on the Knicks' side, center boxing champion Chandler, big forward parallel Milicic, small forward Jeffries who can't run to death, scoring guard is our dashing, and point guard old horse Marbury! ”
CCTV still has emotional tendencies after all, and when it comes to Knicks players, it is always much more emotional.
In fact, due to the chic relationship, the popularity of Knicks players in China is simply not too high, especially the recognized chic close brothers like Nate Robinson and Milicic, who are more popular than the stars in the entertainment industry. One of the dumbest commercials is probably Milicic, who replaced Ronaldo and Kaka as the third sports spokesperson of the Golden Voice, and the commercial continues the previous style, he holds the Golden Throat like a fool, and then narrates...... Golden Throat Throat Treasure, good!
It's stupid to fly!
Milicic didn't mind at all, he just had to pay $500,000 to his account on time.
When CCTV conducted a decent analysis of the lineups of the two sides, Xiao Po had already advanced to the front court with the ball, and it was Kobe Bryant who defended Po Bryant.
This is a situation that has not been seen in the previous two games...... In the first two games, it was always Mr. World Peace who started with a sloppy defense, or a combined defense. After all, Kobe Bryant also has to take care of his physical strength, he is also an ace player, and he must also save his physical strength for the most critical moments.
However, tonight was different, as Xiao Sao claimed before the game that he would sweep the Lakers. So Phil Jackson had to strengthen the whole plan to consume his scarcity again, so Kobe Bryant got entangled in it as soon as he started.
In terms of the ability to defend individually, the Lakers really can't do better than Kobe Bryant.
However, all this didn't do much!!
