Chapter 328: St. Paul of Abuse (5300 Words Chapter)

The tie-breaker has always been a favorite game for fans!

On the evening of May 4th, the two tie-breakers completely made the fans look good.

In the game between the Mavericks and the Spurs, the Spurs exploded completely.

With the excellent play of Parker and Ginobili, the Spurs defeated the Mavericks 96:119 and successfully advanced to the Western Conference semifinals.

The tie-break battle in the Eastern Conference was extremely fierce, and the two sides fought until the last second to completely separate the winner.

Paul Pierce finally blocked Kyle Lowry's shot to help the Nets win a tough 104-103 victory and advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals with a score of 4-3.

Losing the tiebreaker at home, the Raptors players almost shut themselves up.

Winning this game, Coach Rivers seemed extremely excited, and this was also his battle of proof!

Turning the tables against the wind! Rivers is finally not the God who has been reversed.

On the morning of May 5, the NBA league held a grand press conference for Durant.

In the press conference room of the Chesapeake Energy Arena, Li Ze wore a dark blue formal suit and sat next to Ms. Wanda in a low-key manner.

Although it was Durant who came to the stage to accept the award, as the mother of the MVP, Wanda seemed very nervous.

“Kayce! What to do if Kevin says the wrong thing? He should have shown me the speech. ”

The surrounding media seemed to make Wanda a little restless, and Li Ze hurriedly comforted in a low voice:

"This is Kevin's moment, don't worry! There won't be any problems! ”

Li Ze looked at the familiar press conference hall in front of him, and nodded to the surrounding media in a low-key manner.

Durant invited all his good friends to attend, and Li Ze naturally will not be absent.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the host stood on the podium and said with a smile:

"It's great to witness a new MVP tonight!"

"Let's have the superstar of the Russian City, the Most Valuable Player of the 13~14 season - Kevin Durant!"

Durant, who was wearing a blue suit, had a pair of full-rim big glasses on the bridge of his nose, but fortunately, at such an important moment, Durant did not insist on his aesthetic.

Li Ze and the media at the scene gave Durant a round of applause, and the Thunder teammates were on the right hand side of the podium, and the turtle in a training T-shirt showed envious eyes, MVP!

Durant was also a little nervous, looked at the little bronze man on the podium, and finally straightened the microphone before he spoke:

"Usually I'm more talkative, but today I'm a little nervous!"

"I want to thank God for changing my life and letting me know what life is all about."

"I never thought I could play in college or in the NBA, let alone be an MVP in front of you!"

Durant, who entered the state, thanked all his teammates, and at the same time became more and more excited, choked up several times during the period, and Wanda was also emotional and kept crying.

"You might think I forgot about Kayce and Russell, but it's impossible, we won two championships together, we can play all night together, we talk about everything!"

"Russell gets a lot of skepticism, but I want to say, be yourself! You're an MVP-caliber player! I will always support you! ”

"Kayce sets the standard for MVP, I love competing with you on the training pitch and with you I'll never worry about not having an opponent!"

As the audience burst into laughter, Durant adjusted his mood, thanked the coaching staff, and finally thanked his mother again:

"A 21-year-old single mom with two kids and everybody says we shouldn't be there, we keep moving."

"What I remember the most is that there is no bed, no furniture, we hold each other in the living room, you let me get up early to exercise, you go to the street to get clothes and food for us, but you are reluctant to eat."

"Every time you make sure we eat, but you're hungry, in my opinion, you're the real MVP!"

There was warm applause at the scene, Wanda Wow in the audience cried, seeing that a handkerchief was no longer enough, Li Ze hurriedly handed over his handkerchief, Adu can be regarded as a superstar's standard childhood.

Durant, who adjusted his mood again, raised the trophy in his hand and said loudly to the fans of the Russian city again:

"This trophy belongs to you, too!"

"Kayce has won two MVPs here, and I still remember that moment when he assured all the City fans that he would bring back the O'Brien Cup in June!"

"I don't know if I'll be able to do it, but I'll do my best to get the 3rd championship flag over the Chesapeake Energy Arena!"

Durant's speech was full of tears, and Amerika's media reporters loved such stories!

This moving speech quickly became popular all over the Internet, especially Durant's gratitude to his mother, which won a lot of praise.

Since there was still a game in the evening, Durant didn't hold a party to celebrate.

Li Ze leisurely walked around the city, and by the way, he also accepted the invitation of the mayor of the city, Mick Cornet, and stayed in the municipal side for most of the day.

"Kayce, thank you for your support of the Russian community, have you been following the Elephant Party lately?"

Li Ze is very familiar with the affairs of the family, and has also learned about the movements of some other factions through the chick of Candace, but as an athlete from the Celestial Empire, he will not be overly involved in politics.

"It's still the same, in Montana, the Elephant Party has always been checked and balanced in the past, as for the future, I can't predict it, of course, it's just my personal thoughts, there is a chance, we can talk to Joanna, the Dutton family has always been hospitable!"

When Cornet heard Li Ze's words, he was a little powerless to complain, and when he arrived in Montana, he and Dutton were in disagreement, and there was a high probability that they all went to see God, and the hospitable Yellowstone people could be called representatives of barbarism.

Maybe they smelled some signs, and everyone wanted to stand in line in advance, but Li Ze was not interested in learning about these, as long as he didn't delay making money, it didn't matter who was on his head.

On the evening of May 5, ripped jeans, black Keds high-state canvas shoes, and a white printed T-shirt, Li Ze changed into a casual outfit and sat in the front row of the Chesapeake Energy Arena.

When the director of the scene gave the camera to Li Ze, the Russian fans at the scene screamed.

The new president presented Durant with the MVP trophy, and Durant grinned in a good mood, and at this moment he even felt that he had reached the peak of his life.

A loud shout rang out from the Chesapeake Energy Arena:

“ MVP! MVP! MVP! ”

People were in good spirits on happy occasions, and that night, the Thunder easily defeated the Spurs at home with tough rebounding.

At 97:106, the Thunder ushered in a good start to the Western Conference semifinals.

Durant played 36 minutes, 8-of-19, and scored 25 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 1 block and 4 turnovers, drawing a successful end to his milestone night.

The headlines on the front page that night were all the news that Durant won the MVP and the moving speech.

The Pacers' loss at home is no longer noticed, and everyone is used to the first place in the East.

At 102:96, the Wizards, who had six players scoring in double figures, managed to get an away victory.

The Pacers lost 17 rebounds and Paul George scored 18 points on 4-of-17 shooting, as Amerika's ball critic put it:

"The Pacers don't have any dominance! They're not going to make it to the finals."

Before returning to Los Angeles, Li Ze participated in Durant's party again, and since there was a game tomorrow, everyone simply played ball.

In order to celebrate his friend winning the MVP, before flying back to Los Angeles, Li Ze also tweeted by the way:

"Young King! (Crown .jpg) Chase greatness together! (Eye .jpg) @easymoneysniper"

“.”

On the night of May 6, the Staples Arena was packed, and the Clippers will host the Trail Blazers tonight.

In the away team's player tunnel, the new Lillard looked a little nervous, but from the outside, this one was still expressionless, but the small movements of his fingers constantly pulling his shirt exposed his heart.

Wesley Matthews and Batum were a little apprehensive in their hearts, they were going to face Li Ze tonight, and they watched a bunch of videos before the game, and the more they watched it, the cooler their hearts became.

Is this still human? How to prevent it?

In the starting lineup, only Aldridge and Robin Lopez are relatively calm, the former is confident in his own strength, and the latter is because he wants to play against Jordan Jr.

The head coach of the Trail Blazers' Stotts desperately sent chicken soup for the soul before the game, but unfortunately it still couldn't ease the tension of the players.

In addition, the atmosphere at the Clippers' home court tonight was very hot, and after the opening, the Trail Blazers were completely stunned.

You try one, I throw one, and the starting five take turns to shoot, but they all fail to score.

“Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! ”

The fans at the scene shouted wildly, Matthews' three-point shot hit iron, the long rebound was accepted by Li Ze, and the Clippers launched a conversion offense again.

Matthews just wanted to step forward and delay, trying to block Li Ze on the left sideline.

The body shook to the left, and the right hand quickly led the ball forward, and then Li Ze crossed the sideline, immediately accelerated, and the ball was divided, and the Staples Arena erupted in cheers.

Fishing for the ball again with his right hand, he then accelerated with all his might, quickly crossed the three-point line, and rushed into the paint area, Li Ze jumped with both feet and quickly took off.

Ignoring Lopez under the basket who retreated, after the two confronted in the air, the huge impact directly made Lopez hit the street, Li Ze grabbed the ball with his right hand, condescending, and the powerful tomahawk-style violent buckle!

"Boom!" Convert the buckle to get it!

"Oh!!"

The fans at the scene saw Lopez being knocked directly to the floor, and shouted excitedly, and Li Ze knocked the opponent down again! It's so violent!

At this time, there were 7 minutes and 14 seconds left in the first quarter, and the score on the court was 0:14.

For more than four minutes, the Trail Blazers didn't score a point, and Coach Stotts' timeout didn't make any difference.

Li Ze, who completed the dunk, didn't celebrate too much, this game seemed to him to be a simple abuse, and completing this kind of dunk could no longer give him too much sense of achievement.

Coach Stotts called a timeout again, and he couldn't stand his team's loss like this.

Back on the bench, the Trail Blazers' eyes were straight and they got off to a nightmarish start, with the frantic shouts of the fans in the stadium all ears.

Although Coach Stotts kept shouting at his players to hit the ball inside for Aldridge to catch.

But in the first round after the timeout, Aldridge faced Griffin's tough defense and did not attack decisively, but threw the ball to Lillard on the outside.

The overly obvious passing route was easily predicted by Paul, who snatched the ball away, and then accelerated wildly with the ball in his right hand.

Noticing the speed of Li Zechong on the left wing, he had already crossed the three-point line, and Paul, who had just passed the halfcourt, threw the ball directly to the upper left of the basket.

When the ball arrived, Li Ze, who was fully jumping, had a flat head frame, and after catching the ball in the air, he stretched his body, took the ball around, grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand, and smashed the ball into the basket!

"Boom!" The big windmill is empty!

Steve Ballmer, who was under the basketball hoop, was so excited that he kept punching when he saw Li Ze's fierce fast attack and wonderful dunks! This game is stable!

It's numb! Completely numb!

Matthews didn't even dare to dribble in front of Lee, and after being cut off once after the opening round, the defender, who had excelled in the first round, became timid.

Lillard was entangled in Paul's death, and the constant physical confrontation made this newcomer feel completely untouched.

As for Batum and Aldridge, they were hit hard by Barnes and Griffin, and they came up with a fight basketball first, and then these two completely wilted.

It was Aldridge's shot that broke the scoring drought for the Trail Blazers, and after the long two-point shot after the block, the Staples Arena immediately resounded with huge boos:

"Shhhhh

Before he could stabilize his emotions, the Clippers were already serving the baseline ball, and Paul quickly dribbled across the halfcourt and immediately completed a high-post block with Jordan Jr. outside the three-point line.

Briefly freed from Lillard's entanglement, Paul, who was holding the ball in his right hand, kept accelerating, dribbling under his crotch and changing direction in front of his body, shaking Lopez away at once.

Taking advantage of the rhythm to shake out the space for his shot, Paul leaned forward to the right and picked up the basket with his right hand!

The offense took less than 8 seconds, and the Trail Blazers' defense had completely collapsed.

Fortunately, in the next round, the referee blew for Jordan Jr.'s block foul, and Lopec's standing on the free throw line helped the Trail Blazers stabilize their mood.

With both free throws, the Clippers chased the ass and initiated the switch.

The Trail Blazers, who were completely confused, had a miscommunication on the defensive end.

Li Ze used Jordan Jr.'s cover to quickly slip across the baseline from right to left, and quickly bounced outside to the left wing outside the three-point line.

Lillard noticed that Li Ze had completely gotten rid of Matthews' defense, saw Paul passing, and subconsciously chased the defense.

Before it reached Li Ze, the ball flew back into Paul's hands, who received the ball, did not make any adjustments, and threw the ball outside the three-point line!

"Huh!" Three-pointer empty into the net!

Lillard heard the cheers of the fans in the stadium, and there was only one thought in his heart:

"It's over! It's all over! ”

At 4:21, the Staples Arena went on a complete rampage, attacking like a stream, and the fans were screaming at it.

In the next round, Lillard took advantage of Aldridge's cover and finally got rid of Paul's entanglement, hitting two long points.

Turning around, he quickly sent out the baseline ball, Paul dribbled through the halfcourt, and once again completed a high block with Jordan Jr.

Noticing that Lopez failed to help defend in time, Paul, who got rid of Lillard, suddenly stopped at the top of the arc, and then quickly jumped outside the three-point line to shoot!

“Paul! Hits the three! That's good! ”

Commentator Kevin Harlan immediately shouted that this game was really stupid for him.

After the goal, Paul looked calm, showing a big man's appearance, without too much celebration, and when he returned to the defense, Lillard had just dribbled past half court and stepped forward to lead the defense again.

Distraught by Paul's defense, Lillard gave the ball to Aldridge, who asked for the ball in the low post on the left, who faced Griffin's defense, played with his back to the baseline, and threw a jumper in the direction of the baseline!

The signature move was still iron, Jordan Jr. protected the backcourt rebound, and immediately gave the ball to the nearby Li Ze, and the Clippers launched a conversion offense.

Accelerating along the left sideline, he suddenly went out with a small amount of speed in the middle of the march, swaying left and right, and Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand, instantly passed Matthews' defense.

When Lillard saw Li Ze rushing across the halfcourt, he immediately stepped forward to prevent interference, but the next second, he found that the ball flew directly to the right wing outside the three-point line.

Paul received a pass from Li Ze, suddenly stopped outside the three-point line, and converted a three-point jumper!

“Paul! Another three! Yes! ”

Narrator Kevin Harlan shouted excitedly again.

At 4:24, the Trail Blazers were completely numb.

Crazy offense, tough defense, and after the official timeout, Coach Stotts replaced veteran Williams in an attempt to save the team.

The result is still Bang Bang iron, and the piecemeal score cannot narrow the score difference at all.

Coach De Nagro seemed to want to settle the battle in one quarter, and the main lineup played until the end of the first quarter.

At 14:39, the Clippers had already led by 25 points, and the game was basically out of suspense.

"It was a crazy offense, Chris Paul was 6-of-7, including 5-of-5 three-pointers, and scored 17 points in a quarter, and Kayce was 5-of-7, including 2-of-3 three-pointers, and scored 12 points in a quarter!"

"I don't think the Trail Blazers need to think about winning or losing anymore, what they're going to do first is adjust to the intensity of the playoffs."

Reggie Miller looked at the technical statistics, smiled wryly and shook his head, a game was spent, and I have to talk about gossip again tonight.

"I don't know how to describe the performance of the Trail Blazers, but Morsera Williams came off the bench with a team-high four points, and Coach Stotts seemed ill-prepared for the difficulties."

Steve Kerr was dumbfounded, this is the Western Conference Semifinals

After the start of the game in the second quarter, the Trail Blazers did not use the rotation lineup, the main team continued to play, and the Clippers' bench lineup was also crazy, and the average person was in the wind of war!

Aldridge hit mid-range and Crawford responded with a dashing two-pointer.

Aldridge hit a flip jumper and Darren Collison scored in the paint.

Aldridge scored two long points after the pick-and-roll, the Clippers quickly transmitted, and Ray Allen's three-pointer hollowed into the net.

Coach Stotts on the sidelines was completely stunned, looked at it in confusion for a while, and finally sat back on the bench with a blank expression.

Li Ze didn't play again until four minutes left in the second quarter, and the Clippers reduced their defensive intensity, but the Trail Blazers' offensive efficiency was still not high.

At halftime, 39:75, the Clippers entered the second half with a 36-point lead.

After more than 6 minutes of the game in the third quarter, Li Ze was replaced, and the atmosphere of the Clippers was jubilant, and they had nearly one and a half minutes of playing time tonight!

Chris Paul, who was in a good mood, looked at the technical stats and grinned.

Playing 27 minutes, 12-of-14, including 8-of-9 three-pointers, 32 points, 2 rebounds, 10 assists, 1 steal and 1 turnover, he finally played a superstar style in this game.

Li Ze changed into a red training uniform and took the technical statistics handed over by the assistant coach:

10-of-13, including 5-of-7 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws, 27 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal, which is his 23-minute stats.

In the end, 92-122, the Clippers defeated the Trail Blazers and easily won the Western Conference semifinals.

After the game, the Staples Arena was jubilant, and Li Ze looked at the Trail Blazers with blank expressions, and shook his head secretly in his heart:

"This is probably the easiest Western Conference semifinals of my career."
