According to post-game statistics, Li Mingming played 45 minutes, made 12 of 20 shots, and scored a total of 37 points, 3 rebounds and 9 assists. Especially in the last five minutes of the fourth quarter, like Kobe Bryant's possession, he scored 13 points alone and led the team to reverse into overtime.

So, after the game, he was not only named the best player of the match, but also pulled to the sidelines for an interview with ESPN.

This time, ESPN did not send a male reporter, and it was a mature woman who left the country, and it was also the famous Rachel.

This beauty wore good makeup today, which well concealed the flaws on her face, and she deliberately moved closer to Li Jie with the microphone during the interview.

scared Li Jie into a tremble, and immediately took a step back, "I'm only 19 years old, a virgin in two lifetimes, and I'm not interested in a 36-year-old mature woman." ”

It is said that nine years later, Butler and the 45-year-old Rachel had some embarrassing things in the Disney campus, and the taste was really heavy.

The other party also sensed Li Jie's actions, and a disappointed expression flashed on his face in an instant, but he quickly adjusted and started the interview.

Rachel: "Lee, you've made a comeback again, you've had two playoffs this year, and you've played a big role both times, can you share that with us the secret?" ”

Li Jie scratched his head, this question is not easy to answer, do you want to tell you that I am hanging?

He thought about it for a while before he came up with an answer that he thought was safer: "The reason why we can reverse it is because we have the belief that we will win, and we always think that we are the winners on the field." And when the score was behind, including Phil and Kobe, they kept encouraging us, so we were full of motivation in the final battle. ”

Rachel: "We noticed that in this game and in the G4 against Dallas in the last round, the key shots at the last moment were shot by you, not Kobe, is Coach Jackson more trusting you?" ”

Again, this is a war-leading problem, but Li Jie is already very skilled in dealing with this kind of problem.

"Not at all, Kobe has always been our boss and the first choice to execute the final attack, and I have a lot of respect for him. I threw the last shot of the two games, on the one hand, because I felt the right hand, and on the other hand, Kobe Bryant recognized, he was involved in the design of the tactics and attracted the defense for me when executing, so the tactics could be successful. ”

"Wow, is this the Kobe I know?" Hearing this, Rachel and the photographer next to her also laughed.

"Last question, Lee, today you pulled the series to 2-2 and won on a comeback, are you confident that you can continue to win against your opponent in the next game?"

"Of course, not only will we win the next game, but the next time we come back to this arena, we'll end the series and advance to the Finals."

"So who do you think you're up against in the finals? Chicago, or Miami. ”

"Miami, no doubt!"

When the Thunder and Grizzlies played G7, the Eastern Conference Finals G1 had already started, but now they have only finished G3, which is slower than the Western side.

However, the Heat have already played two games in a row after losing one game first, and the next game is still their home court, and the probability of winning is very high.

And the popularity is already higher, so no one thinks there is anything wrong with Li Jie's prediction, let alone that he is spoiling.

"OK, thank you for your time and good luck to your team in the next game."

"Thank you!"

After the two of them finished the interview routinely, they simply shook hands and went back to their respective homes.

Li Jie took a towel from the bench, put it on his head, and walked back to the locker room.

Those photographers also walked in front to shoot him like Durant, but Li Jie simply shook hands with the fans, and there was no excessive celebration, they filmed for a while and then withdrew.

After returning to the locker room, Li Jie briefly celebrated with his teammates, and then secretly went to take a shower, skipping the matter of checking the system later.

……

After winning the game, the Lakers didn't rush back to Los Angeles overnight and stayed in Oklahoma City for another night.

Because Jackson was after the game, he remembered to ask someone to call back and ask the family staff to book a hotel near the training gym.

Then it was not booked for tonight, only a few days later, Li Jie and they could only stay for another night.

Even if he returns to Los Angeles, Jackson does not plan to let the players go home, including the staff, and will have to stay in a hotel, just like the training camp of a national men's basketball team.

He is also cut off from communication, and only when he wins can he have the opportunity to use his mobile phone all night, and the rest of the time he has to train.

As for LSPs like Bynum and Odom, the practice of calling service personnel to the door is even more disallowed. If there is a need, it can only be solved by yourself or with each other.

For these, Li Jie was used to it in his previous life, he only had half a day off a week in high school, and it wasn't like three years, so he quickly adapted to it.

On the contrary, those Westerners who are loose by nature and are not used to living in groups have been complaining. But he can only talk behind his back, and he still doesn't talk in front of Jackson.

The next day, when they flew back to Los Angeles, the team bus went straight to the door of the hotel.

This hotel is also a street away from the training hall, so it is very convenient for everyone to put down their luggage and continue training.

It's also close to where Li Jie lives, and he can see it upstairs, but his request to go back to live was also denied.

……

When the Lakers landed in Los Angeles, the media news about G4 also came out.

Almost all the media, the tone of the report has returned to the same as when it was G1, as if it was not these people who helped find the backstabber two days ago.

Sure enough, it's a theory, and I can also deny me a few days ago, it's all about traffic.

After training, Li Jie read some newspapers bought by the staff and found that they were full of news about the Lakers and himself.

"The Lakers won the all-important G4 in overtime against OKC, making the series 2-2 and regaining home-court advantage. Rookie Li Jie once again played bravely, scoring 37 points, 3 rebounds and 9 assists, and was elected the best player of the game. ”

Not bad, boastful, too.

"In the two consecutive series of big score reversal performances, Lee can be called the Lakers' savior, shooting and shooting free throws at critical moments without missing a single miss. For comparison, the Thunder shot 1-of-10 from the field, 0-of-2 from the free-throw line, and had three turnovers in the final minute. ”

That is, you don't look at whose hand the keyboard is!

According to Lakers insiders, Bryant has ceded the team's main offensive rights to Lee and is willing to make sacrifices in order to win. In fact, in the last few games, Lee is attacking at key moments, and Kobe Bryant is responsible for attracting defense. ”

Your informant is Phil Jackson, can you get this news?

"OKC infighting? According to local media reports in Russia, because of the G4 loss, the communication between the Thunder and the Thunder is becoming less and less, and the former good brothers have gradually drifted apart, and if the Thunder loses this series, they may rebuild. ”

Fake news, it will take several years for the brothers to break up!

Li Jie wrote down the name of the last media and decided not to accept any more interviews with them, not to buy newspapers, and not to earn them a penny.

In the end, he also brought these newspapers back and showed them to his brother to relieve his boredom.

These teammates are now bored to the point of playing cards, and they are still changing hands with each other for a lot of money.

I don't know what Jackson thinks, I'm concentrating on training, and I don't care how I gamble money, doesn't it affect my training status if someone loses?

It's a pity that he just didn't care, and even the assistant coach joined in.

It may be that if this only entertainment is canceled, the players will resist too much.

However, this kind of closed management also has a little benefit, that is, everyone's training time has increased, and people who don't want to play cards basically practice on their own at night.

And through the past few days of training, Li Jie's tacit understanding with his teammates has become better and better, at least there will be no low-level mistakes.
