Chapter 284: The Reward of the Christmas War, Impossible Victory!
The 2014 Christmas battle between the Lakers and the Celtics is worth mentioning in the history of the NBA Christmas game!
In a single quarter, the Lakers were killed by the Celtics!
At halftime, the Lakers trailed by 28 points!
Coach D: Please don't make the basketball cry!
Magical Monty: They beat theirs, we hit ours!
Celtic: God has never been on the side of Coach D!
Coach D: On the pitch, God never beat me!
Coach D's crazy three!
Magical Monty's Crazy Two Points!
At the last moment, Coach D chose to use two points to decide the game!
And the magical Monty also chose to use three points to decide the game!
"LeBron, don't have two points, three points !!"
"LeBron James won't shoot three-point !!!"
In the end, LeBron James dropped the ball in the shouting of the two famous coaches!
And in the end, the Celtics lost 90-91 at home to the Lakers on the road, and the Lakers completed an incredible super reversal in this game, at home!
"God chose LeBron James, but basketball didn't !!"
"In the final moments, basketball abandoned LeBron James!!!"
"And the great Coach D, on the court, is still never defeated by God!!"
In the commentary seat of the North Shore Gardens, O'Neill is shouting frantically!
Celtics fans, at this time, are all looking at the stunned LeBron James on the court!
The Lakers fans at the scene were singing "Coach D's Song!" at this time! The Lakers fans' admiration for Coach D resounded throughout the North Shore Gardens!
Outside the court, those Lakers fans who left early were shouting and crying frantically in the square at this time, while the Celtics fans in the square could only bite the Celtics fans on their bodies at this time, unwilling and helpless.
At the end of the first half, no Celtic would have thought that Celtic would lose this game!
Including the referee team of this game, but also the hook executives on the sidelines and the league's vice president Adam Shaw.
And, of course, Celtic's general manager, Danny Angie.
In the stands of North Shore Gardens, Celtic fans were watching all this in amazement, as were Danny Angie and the Celtic legend next to him.
After a moment of shock, these Celtic celebrities all looked at Danny Angie angrily.
In this game, the Celtics were reversed by 28 points in the half, which is definitely a shame that can go down in the history of the Kai team!
28 points!
If you want to say that the Celtics are better, that, because they were lucky to have a 28-point lead at halftime, they can still accept it.
But!
The Celtics have the advantage of strength, and there is the support of the referee, or at home, the Lakers are still full of injuries, and that's it, in the end, it was reversed!
Who can stand this!
Moreover, this reversal is even more unbearable!
The five Lakers players who had the best performance in the second half were Barkley, Seth Curry, McCarvey, Pierce and Garnett.
If there were two more excellent ones out of these five, it would be Pierce and Garnett!
Pierce scored a team-high 21 points from the Lakers, 8-of-18, and in the final critical moment, Pierce assisted Garnett to complete the quasi-final kill.
Garnett only scored 13 points in this game, but he had 15 rebounds and 5 blocks, and he also completed a quasi-final shot at the most critical moment!
Pierce's 21 points were almost scored in the second half, and Garnett's stats were also mostly scored in the second half, and the presence of these two in the second half was simply described as explosive.
Where is there any feeling of useless veterans who should be retired!
Such a great two veterans!
Danny Angie rejected them like that!!
LeBron James, just rejected them!!
If they are still with the Celtics now, then the Lakers will honestly give the Celtics to climb out of Boston in this game!
Angry!
Depressed!
Aggrieved!
The Celtic celebrities and Celtic fans who came back to their senses, this is the mood at this time!
In this much-anticipated game, they were slapped in the face by their old rival Lakers at home!
And what's even more odious is that Coach D's hand that slapped them in the face is still Pierce and Garnett, two former Celtic legends, legends full of loyalty to the Celtics!
This made the Celtic fans at the scene not even know how to boo!
Boo Pierce and Garnett?
But all Celtics fans who have seen what Pierce and Garnett have encountered in the past two years dare not black Pierce and Garnett offline, but only dare to hide on the Internet, and the darkest corners of the two are blackened.
The two left the Celtics because of Danny Angie, James and the Celtics themselves, these two came to the Lakers, supported by Celtics fans, and there are dark intentions to spoil the Lakers.
Now, not only did these two not spoil the Lakers, but this game also spoiled the Celtics!
"Coach D knows how to slap his face!"
"Hahahaha, I've never seen a Celtic fan, Celtic's famous legend would be so uncomfortable after such a fiasco at home, hahahaha......"
"This win is definitely the greatest regular season win in Lakers history!"
"This game can be compared to the game where Coach D paid tribute to Jerry, in that game, the Lakers' opponent was still the Boston Celtics, hahahaha...... Coach D is a nightmare that Boston will never be able to turn the page! Hahahaha......"
Compared with the Celtics celebrities who can only focus their angry eyes on Danny Angie at this time, the current Lakers celebrities are definitely the happiest group in the entire arena.
In the first half, they were really ridiculed by their old rivals next to them.
Now looking at these old opponents who have mocked them like this, how can you not be happy about them?
However, while being happy, these Lakers celebrities are also sighing wildly.
In fact, it's not just them who are sighing, I don't know how many experts and journalists, spectators, and even Celtic celebrities are sighing at this time.
Even the Celtic celebrities, after glaring at Danny Angie angrily, they had to admit that Danny Angie and the Celtics actually didn't have too many problems in the summer, except for being unkind, from the perspective of competition, there were no problems.
Pierce and Garnett have had such a highlight this season.
Other moments, all undercover.
"That's the greatness of Coach D!"
Pierce and Garnett have both gone undercover this season, but in this game, Coach D still chose to continue to believe in the two, and in the end, they gave Coach D their trust in return.
Looking at Pierce and Garnett, who were frantically thanking Coach D on the sidelines at this time, many Celtic celebrities on the scene were really envious.
Although they are Celtics celebrities, they are indeed envious and jealous that the Lakers can find a head coach like Coach D!
This game is almost all the qualities of Coach D!
Tough to the extreme!
Extremely powerful!
It's also perfect!
"If it weren't for our head coach, Marvel Monty, who is also a super great head coach, I would be envious and jealous of the Lakers to the point of madness!!"
"Next time, Magical Monty will definitely be able to defeat Coach D!"
"This time the magical Monty faced Coach D, the Celtics lost, the magical Monty did not lose! It was all LeBron James's last-minute drop that made the magical Monty miss the opportunity to beat Coach D again! ”
The Celtic legends on the scene quickly came out of the shadow of the miserable defeat, they are all well-informed and easy to get out of such a game.
It's the fans who come out after the Celtic legend, and it's hard to lose like this, but what can you do if it's uncomfortable?
In general, the players performed well in the first half, and in the second half, they were replaced by Coach D's words: "Don't make the basketball cry!" "It's a whole collapse mentality.
Arguably, the best performance of the Celtics from start to finish in this game was the magical Monty.
After losing the game like this, James was originally going to go directly into the players' tunnel, but after coming off the court, he was pulled and hugged by the magical Monty, and then, the magical Monty took James and the Celtics players to start the court.
"LeBron, the fans are giving up Christmas Eve to be at home with their families and coming to be with us, we can't let them down, we need to prepare a Christmas present for the fans."
James eventually gave up struggling.
When the Amazing Monty took James and the Celtics players to greet the Celtics fans at the scene, the Celtics fans at the scene shouted the name of the Amazing Monty.
It was a spectacular scene.
I don't know how many NBA head coaches envy in front of the TV set.
"Second Coach D! The team of the Big Five, the most popular among fans is actually a head coach! ”
"Not convinced?"
"Convincing, after all, it's a magical Monty, a magical Monty who can put Coach D in a desperate situation every time!"
"Michael Jordan and the terminator of Coach D, the only one in NBA history!"
After taking James and the Celtics players off the court, Magical Monty took the initiative to walk in front of Dukang.
"Coach D, we lost this game, and we are convinced to lose."
"No, we won by luck."
Du Kang smiled and hugged Magical Monty.
Compared with his old master Bobo, Du Kang still admires his lifelong enemy very much.
Modest, polite, not proud at all, not crazy at all, this is very rare, especially compared with his master Bobo, it is even more rare.
Bobo's protégés are not many honest.
Don't look at Kerr's usual look of respect when he sees him, and he can't wait to come to him as an assistant coach.
But Duconian Cole would not believe half a word.
That guy from Cole looks honest in front of him, and he must have a stomach full of bad water in his stomach!
Boboliu's coach is holding bad water in his stomach!
You have to really let your guard down, be careful of being suddenly, and regret it for the rest of your life!
Magical Monty is also very bad, but it is not bad water, thinking of his first year of coaching, the first time he met Magical Monty, and was almost collapsed by his tactical system, Du Kang's face showed that look of memory and enjoyment.
The duel between him and the magical Monty can always be a classic, and this time is no exception.
Therefore, in the post-game press conference, Du Kang did not mention the referee and the Celtic players of this game, but he was full of praise for the Celtics' head coach Miraculous Monty.
Of course, the magical Monty is also full of praise for Du Kang.
"Coach D is the best coach in the world and one of the best in history, and I think we all agree that he is the best coach in the world, so I would be ashamed to hear you compare me to him, and if anyone doubts that he is the best, I will invite him to watch this game, and if they can find a manager who can lead this Laker to beat us, I agree with them, I know, they will never find it."
'I'm not going to be the best, I'm not the best manager, thank you very much Monty, but I'm not the best, but my team is the best, we beat Celtic but I didn't beat Monty, that's what this game is all about.
"Monty makes basketball, makes the NBA a better place, he's a very strong opponent, every time you play against him, it's nerve, it's exciting, it's good, Monty motivates me to work harder, he's a great head coach, there's no problem between us, there's just respect."
Du Kang's words at the post-match press conference shocked the reporters at the scene!
When have you ever seen Coach D compliment an opponent like that?
Coach D, did you really think about the feelings of Popovich and Phil Jackson when you said that?
These two add up to 15 championships, can you praise these two as much as one-fifteenth of Monty?
However, for Coach D's praise of the magical Monty, the reporters at the scene were shocked and immediately became excited.
"Coach D, I'm tied for first place with Fantastic Monty, followed by other head coaches like Phil Jackson and Popovich!"
Well, when Phil and Bobo got up the next day, they didn't know if they would feel their heads blow up when they saw the headlines on the front page of a large number of media in the United States.
Why!!
Why do we add up to 15 championships, and TM can't compare to the two that add up to only 2 championships?
Moreover, the recognition of TM is not comparable!
In fact, there is no need to wait until tomorrow, just on the spot, Popovich, who has been watching the post-match press conference in front of the TV, can't stand it.
Popovich also admired Monty, but!
Coach D!
Can you speak with a little conscience!
In the past few seasons, we have met again and again in the playoffs, we have played so many times, in your heart, even if I am not as good as Monty, is it not even a tenth of Monty?
In short, Bobo felt that he was envious and jealous......
In short, Bobo felt that his heart was empty at this time, and he felt that something had been snatched away......
Du Kang naturally didn't know what Bobo was thinking now, and he was still answering reporters' questions.
Defeated Celtic away, and it was a 28-point reversal, and it was a simulated game to lose all the games, but he won the real game, which made Du Kang very happy.
Now Du Kang is indeed very excited.
He won a game that was impossible to win!
This is not even his own boasting, but the system says it!
"Ding, congratulations on winning an impossible match, completing the hidden achievement 'Impossible Victory' will award purple glory points, 1 point, you now have a total of 3 purple glory points."
Impossible to win!
Of course, Dukang knew that this game was very difficult.
Because he failed all 20 simulations before the game, and the failures were all miserable.
Du Kang has simulated so many races, and has never encountered a game that is so tough.
The opponent is strong, and the referee helps, and there are undercover agents on your side, you will lose if you go undercover, and if you don't go undercover, and your strength is not enough, no matter how you look at this game, it is very desperate.
Du Kang also knew that this game was desperate, but he didn't expect that this game would be so desperate!
For the first time, the system gives such an evaluation of a game, impossible victory!
You know, Du Kang has played many difficult games in the NBA in recent years.
And these matches, which Dukang considered very difficult, have never been evaluated as impossible victories!
Even if it's the finals of the past two years!
However, it seems normal to think about it a little.
Many people say that the Lakers have had a hard time winning the finals in the past two years, and they are not strong enough to win the finals.
However, Du Kang himself knows that in the finals last two years, the strength was definitely the Lakers he led.
On the contrary, this year, but this time, his Lakers are indeed not so dominant.
At the very least, after winning this game, these reporters on the scene laughed when he said that he was not better than Monty, but that the team was stronger.
"Coach D, you may not be better than Monty, but the Lakers are definitely weaker than the Celtics, the victory in this game, the Lakers rely on basketball to have a spirit, this is what you said, hahahaha......"
Regardless, the Lakers vs. Celtics game is over.
After the Lakers defeated the Celtics, this also made the Lakers the hottest team in the NBA.
The Lakers' odds to win the championship this time finally rushed to the top four again.
Well, behind the Celtics, Warriors and Thunder, it's fourth.
The Celtics lost the game but remained in first place.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this year's NBA championship is none other than the Celtics!
This Christmas war is very revealing.
If other teams want to beat the Celtics to win the championship, they need not only the energy of the team, but also the energy of other aspects.
However, in the face of such hellish difficulty, none of the head coaches and players of those strong teams in the NBA expressed discouragement.
Even Kerr, the head coach of the Warriors, said in an interview that he can't wait to start taking on the strongest challenge!
Finally, O'Neill lamented on TNT's celestial show.
"It can only be said that Coach D has injected incredible vitality into the entire NBA, the current NBA, no one complains about the referees, the current NBA, is no longer a boring league of resentful women, the current NBA, what is needed is courage, it is the Warriors who win, no one wants to be a coward!"
Because of distrust of the NBA league, NBA games, whether in the O'Neal era or the current era, after the game starts, there is no game that does not discuss the referee, if a game is always distracted by the referee's topic, no matter how wonderful the game, it will lose focus.
Especially in the game, if the referee is discussed all the time, it will definitely affect the viewing effect.
Now, Coach D has given everyone a start, don't complain during the game, turn the complaint into combat effectiveness, and liquidate it after the game!
Settle the score with victory!
I can do such a cool thing over and over again, and so can you!
As a result, one NBA team after another, now when they see the Celtics, they are on top.
Even some stunned players or players who have long seen James unpleasantly, meet the Celtics, meet James, and say: "LeBron James, take out your three-god suit!" ”
Fack!
James has broken the defense!
He has never seen anyone take the initiative to find unfair treatment!
This is very embarrassing, and even the NBA league is very embarrassing for a while.
Of course, the most embarrassing thing is definitely James.
The influence of this Christmas war is too great.
Therefore, in the face of these people who want to step on their own positions one by one, James is really unguardable!
Of course, he gritted his teeth angrily, who are you TM, and you deserve me to take out the three god suits?
Do you think you're Kobe Bryant, or Coach D, or Jordan?
Since then, although James has been repeatedly humiliated by these troublemakers, he has never taken out the triumvirate again.
The strength of the Celtics, even if they are targeted by the entire league, even if they don't come up with the triumvirate, they can win, in particular, the influential Christmas battle made the Celtics head coach Magical Monty's status in the team explode and rise, and after the control of the team is strengthened, the chemistry of the Celtics is also better.
"LeBron, don't feel sorry for yourself, your MVP hasn't disappeared yet, we still have a regular season game with the Lakers, and in that game, we can't find any reason to lose, and that will be your stage."
James, who has been very irritable recently, looked at the smile on the face of the magical Monty and was stunned, and then, the boredom on his face slowly disappeared.
James became more calm.
Magical Monty, who truly took control of the Celtics.
Celtic, too, are really on the right track.
Even throughout January, the Celtics didn't lose a single game and won it all!
On the other hand, the Lakers had an 11-2 record throughout January, losing 85-99 to the Spurs on the road and 87-99 to the Rockets at home.
These two games have one thing in common, that is, the Lakers' three-point shot is simply explosive.
Playing the Spurs, he shot 5 of 40 three-pointers, and the shooting rate was only 12.5%!
This stunned the entire league.
And you think this is the lowest?
Naive!
You never know how much of a thrill the Lakers can give you this season!
In this game against the Rockets, the Lakers shot 3-of-39 from three-point range, and the shooting rate was only a measly 7.7%!
Playing two super ghost three-point shots like this in a month, Seth Curry must have contributed a lot.
In these two games, Seth Curry made 2 of 20 three-pointers in one game and 1 of 19 three-pointers in the other, which stunned people who don't know how much!
The Spurs and Rockets' infinite switching of defenses did have a big impact on Seth Curry's three-point shots.
But!
Seth Curry dared to shoot like this when the defense was so strict, it can only be said that Coach D is indeed fierce!
Cole, who watched these two games, was scared by Coach D and broke out in a cold sweat.
Sometimes he also thinks that Coach D's Falk basketball is very good, should you let the team try it too?
It wasn't until watching these two games that the little flame that had just been generated in Cole's heart was instantly extinguished.
It's so exciting!
I can't afford to play, I really can't afford to play!
He won't let Stephen Curry attack so indiscriminately!
Under Seth Curry's two-game 2-of-20 and 1-of-19 three-pointers, many Lakers fans watched Kobe Bryant's previous 1747 show a lot.
However, although Seth Curry was ironclad in these two games, the Western Conference Player of the Month in January went to Seth Curry.
Seth Curry averaged 20.5 shots per game throughout January, hitting 9 shots per game, including 17 three-pointers per game, yes, Seth Curry averaged 17 three-pointers per game throughout January, hitting 7 three-pointers per game, averaging 5-of-6 free throws per game, averaging 30 points per game, leading the team to 11-2.
Whether in terms of data or record, it is a little better than James Harden, who led the Rockets to 13 wins and 4 losses, averaging 26 points and 7 assists per game.
In the end, Seth Curry won the award of the month for three consecutive months.
Seth Curry has won all of the best of the month in the West this season.
Regardless of whether you say that he is the little prince of abuse or the little prince of luck, or the son of Coach D, in short, Coach D told him not to scruple and throw it outside the three-point line, which is the whole trend of the league.
is not only the best hand of the month, but also won the all-star vote.
In the All-Star Poll announced at the same time as the Monthly Awards.
Eventually, Seth Curry became the ticket king and the starting guard in the West.
In this year's All-Star Game, the Lakers had four players selected for the final All-Star Game, Seth Curry, Wade, Ibanks and McCarvey.
Wade was a little depressed after the Christmas War, and he was originally going to say goodbye to the Christmas War.
Now, it is very uncomfortable to stay with the Lakers to suffer.
And importantly, after the Christmas war, James never looked for him again.
Obviously, LeBron was injured and LeBron was angry.
Wade can also understand this, how important this year's Christmas game is, how important it is to LeBron, he understands.
He also wants to bring LeBron the win in this game.
But!
Wade sighed hard.
"My indisputable body!!"
Forget about the knees, there has never been a problem with the groin, and at the critical moment, there was a problem!
It is precisely because of this that Wade has always wanted to make up for his own problems and want to regain LeBron's trust.
Wade set his sights on the All-Star Game as soon as possible.
"If you can give LeBron an All-Star MVP, it seems, it's just right?"
Thinking of this, Wade felt as if he had been resurrected again.
If you leave the Christmas fight, you can't send an AMVP to LeBron!
It seems to be a blessing in disguise.
Therefore, at the All-Star Game on February 18, 2015, Wade wanted to show his strength, leave his good life to James in this game, and then give the AMVP to LeBron, by the way, build momentum for LeBron's MVP, and then, he deliberately injured himself and retired!
"Coach, has Dwyann been having some psychological problems lately?"
Nash looked at Wade, who was depressed just now, not far away, and now suddenly laughed, and was speechless.
Wade's problem is huge, and he can see it clearly, but the coach doesn't seem to care about it all the time, and he doesn't know how many times he has reminded the coach.
But......
Instructor......
"It's okay, let him be."
Du Kang smiled.
"Steve, I'm not going to the All-Star Game this time, you can lead the team."
“……”
Nash ended up crying and laughing.
The coach doesn't care, so what else can be said?
Finally, Nash smiled wryly and nodded.
In this All-Star game, Du Kang is not the head coach, so there is naturally no need to go.
The Lakers' record is now 49-4, which is certainly number one.
But last year Kerr gave him coaching, and this year it's definitely Kerr coaching, and he can't be so unreassuring.
Although Du Kang did not go to the scene of the All-Star Game this time, he ......
"Dwyane Wade, came to my team, and you want to leave like that?"
"I, do you have permission!"
Du Kang looked at Wade, who was worried not far away, and a smile appeared on his face.
Purple glory points, three......
After three days of injections, the fisherman's inflammation subsided, and he no longer had a fever, but the cough was still the kind of empty cough that the fisherman had never encountered, not a cough in the lungs and no phlegm, nor a cough in the throat, but the tonsils of the mouth had been a little itchy, and he had been coughing there, almost once in a few seconds, without pulling the lungs, his throat was not painful, nor was there phlegm, and he did not have a runny nose, but he was coughing, he couldn't hold it, the thief was uncomfortable, and after eating a mouthful of food, it suddenly all squirted out o(╥_╥)o This bacterial infection, Engaged in the fisherman's half life.
