On May 27, Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals started as scheduled!

At the usual pre-game kick-off meeting, Fisher said to the Lakers players gathered around: "With just one win, we can win this series, enter the Finals for three consecutive years, and even win the championship for three consecutive years." Our name will be on par with a player like Jordan in the future, come on, guys, kick the ass hard on the other side! ”

Unexpectedly, Kobe Bryant, who had never spoken in this link before, also stood up, he glanced at all his teammates, and said in an unquestionable tone: "I don't want to fight seven again, take out all your strength, and kill them tonight." ”

The boss has spoken like this, so what else is there to say, Li Jie responded as soon as possible and took the lead in shouting: "Advance to the finals, just today!" ”

Although the other teammates felt that this sentence was a bit awkward and did not rhyme, they still shouted along with a lot of face!

Today, everyone is WE!

On the Thunder's side, Brooks was also making a mobilization speech: "We need two more wins to beat them, and tonight is important for us, and only by winning can we get into the tiebreaker." And we can't lose in front of the home crowd, tonight we will fight for them and fight for the win! ”

Compared to previous games, the Thunder players responded a lot quieter.

Most of them are young people, and the past two games have been reversed in a row, which has hit their self-confidence a bit hard, and even Durant and Wei Shao have no belief in winning at this time!

……

The game started quickly.

Under the heavy pressure of the boss, the Lakers are very effective in fighting in the three armies.

Bynum took the lead in snatching a wave of possession on Ibaka's head, and then Li Jie burst under the basket and scored the first point on a layup.

Wei Shao quickly returned the color and used a pull-up jump shot to equalize the score.

But Bynum was a little fierce today, perhaps because he was scared by Kobe Bryant before, and he didn't dare to disobey the boss's orders, and he succeeded in two singles on the inside in a row.

Kobe Bryant and Li Jie also hit two three-pointers in a row, and the Lakers opened the score in an instant.

On the Thunder's side, Durant and Wei Shao also performed, but their scoring did not quench their thirst.

Because in addition to the Lakers being able to score as starters, Fisher, Brown and others who came off the bench also performed well, hitting three points in a row.

In the first five games, the Thunder's bench was ahead of the Lakers in points per game under the leadership of Harden, but today it was just the other way around.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led the Thunder by nine points, 31:22.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Wei Shao, who led the bench lineup on the court, took advantage of Li Jie's absence to quickly break into the basket to make it 2+1, and then assisted Eric Mayno to score a three-pointer to narrow the score to 3 points.

Jackson saw that the situation was not right, and quickly replaced Li Jie, who had not been resting for long.

This trick quickly worked, Li Jie first rewarded Wei Shao with a hot pot in defense, and then scored two three-pointers in a row to recover the points he had lost before.

Kobe Bryant also felt good after he came back, scoring 5 points on inside and outside shots.

Under the leadership of these two people, the Lakers directly blasted a wave of 19-4 super attacks, quickly extending the lead to 15 points.

Although Durant and Harden also scored some goals after that, they did not save the momentum.

Maybe it's because the Lakers feel too good during this time, and the players who played the Thunder are a little skeptical about life.

After a timeout, when Li Jie walked on the court, Seflosha over there actually came over and picked up his wrist and took a sharp look, as if trying to find out why Li Jie felt so good today.

caused Li Jie to throw his hand at him, and ate a technical foul in vain.

But the hiccup didn't make much of a difference on the court, and at halftime, the Lakers led by 13 points, 62-49.

In the second half, Durant stepped up again and made a three-pointer. He felt very good today, with a shooting rate of more than 50%, but his teammates were not strong, and the Lakers were too accurate.

Subsequently, Ibaka also made a foul under the basket, hitting two free throws and two free throws to chase the difference to within single digits.

However, the Lakers' three-point rain struck again, this time not only Li Jie and Kobe Bryant, but also Gasol and Ci Shiping also scored one, once again pulling the score away.

By the halfway point of the fourth quarter, the Lakers had led by as many as 25 points and victory was in sight.

A minute later, Jackson felt that the game was stable and directly replaced the main force.

On the Thunder's side, Durant and Harden led the team to struggle for another two minutes, but they still failed to narrow the score to less than 20 points, and they also surrendered directly, and the game entered garbage time.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Thunder with a score of 121-103 on the road and successfully advanced to the Finals.

When the whistle blew at the end of the game, Thunder head coach Brooks was still comforting his players, "It's a shame that we couldn't go any further today, we still have a lot to sum up." You don't have to hang your head and keep your head up and continue to do what we have to do. In the summer, we try to make ourselves stronger and better, and that's what we're working towards. ”

"The last thing we want to do is to congratulate our opponents, and when we are ready, we have to take the initiative to come forward and shake their hands and thank everyone. It was a fair game, they won above board, and we did our best! ”

It's a pity that not many of the sad Thunder players listened to the coach, and the upright Wei Shao walked directly back to the locker room.

However, Durant and Harden, who have relatively high emotional intelligence, stayed, and came over one by one to shake hands with the Lakers' players.

The two of them went to Kobe Bryant first, and they greeted the camera together for a long time, and finally came to Li Jie.

"Boy, you're lucky this time, but it won't be like this next year, and if we meet again, I'll definitely win." Durant still looks like he won't admit defeat.

Because he scored a game-high 32 points today, along with 11 rebounds and three assists; And Li Jie only has 24 points and 13 assists.

Statistically, he won, but unfortunately his teammates on both sides are too different, and the Lakers have a total of 6 players scoring double-doubles tonight.

Durant is qualified to say the phrase "I didn't lose when my teammates lost."

Li Jie was in a good mood today, so he teased him: "You don't have a chance KD, as long as I'm still in the west, you can't win me." ”

There is also a sentence in the back, "Unless you run shamelessly to the warriors", he did not say.

“Fxxk you！ We'll see next year! Durant scolded again, "But I still hope you can win the championship, I don't want that person to win the championship before me." ”

It seems that in Durant's eyes, his biggest opponent is still Lao Zhan!

"OK, I'll win, don't worry!"

After Li Jie high-fived Durant again, he turned around and spoke to Harden next to him, "James, if you want to leave the team next year, maybe you can come to Los Angeles, if we join forces, we will definitely be famous!" ”

This made Harden a little baffled, and was about to answer, but Durant next to him took the lead, "Hey, don't sow discord, James won't go anywhere." ”

"Yes, I love OKC and I'm going to win the championship here." Harden also made a statement!

"Not necessarily, you like it, it probably doesn't like you, anyway, think about Los Angeles."

"Okay, I'll think about it!"

……

At the award ceremony of the Western Conference championship, after Li Jie received the trophy from Stern, he immediately celebrated heartlessly.

It stands to reason that it shouldn't be his turn to receive the trophy, but the other teammates are all old fritters, and if he wins too much in the Western Championship, he is not interested, and he is the only newcomer, so he can only reluctantly accept the award.

Although the Western Championship trophy without the blessing of the championship is scrap iron, this is the first championship won by Li Jie after crossing, and it is more grand.

And this is the champion of the West, Paul has worked hard for so many years, and now he has no chance to touch it.

However, this award ceremony was a bit short, everyone dispersed after receiving the trophy, and there was no champagne when they returned to the dressing room. Maybe the whole Lakers team thinks that the Western Conference championship is not a big deal, they want a championship.

So, the Lakers will simply celebrate in the locker room before packing up and heading back to Los Angeles overnight.

Jackson also fulfilled his promise, and after winning the Western Finals, he immediately returned everyone's mobile phones, and he didn't have to stay in a hotel, and went home directly.
