“How many roads must a man walk down，Before you call him a man~”

(How many miles does a man have to go before he can be called a true man.) ）

Min Congda's mind couldn't help but hear the melody of Bob Dylan's song, "Blowing in the Wind".

At this time, the third game between the Spurs and the Clippers ended, and the score was fixed at 100:91.

The Clippers defeated the Spurs again at home, rewriting the score of the series to 3-0, and there was no suspense.

No team in NBA history has come back from 3-0 down.

The last time they trailed 3-0 and came close to a comeback was the 1994 Denver Nuggets.

The Black Eight in the first round gave them an extremely resilient and fearless mentality.

Facing the Jazz in the semifinals, he fell behind 0:3 and dragged into the tiebreaker again.

The Nuggets are one step away from creating a big miracle.

Karl Malone withstood the pressure in Game 7 in Salt Lake City and scored 31 points.

Deathshot Hornacek scored 18 points efficiently, and the two worked together to wipe out the tenacious Nuggets.

The Nuggets also ended their legendary 1994 playoff run.

This time, the Spurs were pushed to the edge of the cliff, 0:3, and the Black Eight was already close at hand.

The entire Stamp Center celebrated, white towels waving wildly, making the black spurs out of place.

Duncan left the game with his head down, and the fans did not boo him.

The gods who descend from the mountain are equally worthy of respect.

The defeat was a huge blow for the Spurs players.

Before the game, they clearly shared the same hatred and united as one.

They also fought hard in the game.

Ginobili and Parker, who were injured, did their best.

Time and time again, they used their not-so-strong bodies to impact the Clippers' thick interior.

Gasol Jr. and Milicic combined for six blocks in the game.

At the same time, the two also committed nine fouls, and Xiaojia and Milicic both had scars on their arms.

It's all a legacy of the battle, with the Spurs giving it their all and the Clippers still winning.

And for Min Congda, this victory is an even bigger blow.

No matter how shocking the cheers were, no matter how cheering Curry, Harden, Barand and others were.

His mind is reverberating with Bob Dylan's song repeatedly, and this BGM lingers for a long time.

It wasn't until the post-game press conference that Min Congda accepted the fact that the Clippers were about to enter the next round.

His pre-match remarks were like, "I'm thinking about my opponent in the next round."

That's right!

You mouth, why don't you say it right at other times?

This kind of thing, one thing is accurate.

I really want to shake my mouth.

At this point, Min Congda can only accept this result.

"Mr. Smart, your bold pre-game remarks have come true, so can you tell us what the ultimate goal of the Clippers is this season? Is it the championship? ”

Damn journalists, you still want us to win the championship?

Do you want me to die?

This time, Min Congda didn't dare to talk nonsense.

He said: "I don't think you can rush anything, you can't be ambitious. I've always taken a long-term view of the Clippers, and it's too early to talk about championships. ”

The reporter asked again: "Before the game, I said that I don't want the series to return to San Antonio, but the Spurs will definitely fight to the death in Game 4, can the Clippers do a sweep?" ”

Min Congda covered the microphone, stretched out his head and asked, "Which media unit are you from?" Is it good to ask questions with brains? Is it up to me to sweep or not? I put two bold words before the game, are you still serious? I also said that I want to win not one, two, three, but five, six, seven, eight championships, do you think you can believe it? ”

The reporters in the audience laughed, but Mr. Smart was still so humorous and approachable.

The reporter who asked the question just now showed his press card, which was from Fox TV.

It turned out to be a colleague of Jordan Peel and Michael Kee, no wonder he caused trouble for Lao Tzu.

Needless to say after this game, Peel and Kee are crazy, and the documentary material is already in hand.

Min Congda has decided that he will definitely not invest money in them next season!

After the interview, Min Congda returned to the locker room, and the players instantly cheered.

Curry was happy like a monkey in the locker room, stripping off his shirt and dancing there.

Harden sat on the bench and twisted non-stop.

Marc Gasol is wandering around the locker room wrapped in a bath towel after taking a shower.

If champagne had been put in the locker room, it would have been sprayed on Min Congda.

But the cheers lasted less than 3 seconds, and Min Congda's cold face made everyone gradually quiet down.

Only Paul George was still there, he was wearing headphones with his back to Min Congda and didn't see it.

Ricky Davis went over and took off his headphones, and George looked back and saw Min Cong Daren wilting all of a sudden.

"Oh... Mr. Smart, you're here. ”

Silence, damn silence again.

This seems to be Min Congda's usual trick.

He often used this death-like silence to silence everyone.

The terrifying aura suppressed the entire locker room, making these billionaires who were more than 2 meters tall and worth millions or tens of millions of dollars dare not come out.

This time, Min Congda was not thinking about the lines, but adjusting and changing his emotions.

He finally asked, "Is the series over?" We've already won the Spurs, the series? ”

Everyone didn't speak, and everyone knew that it was a little too early to celebrate.

"Did we win the championship? Then I'm going to arrange a parade of champions, who wants to ride in the first row of the champion floats? ”

It was still silent, and no one dared to talk.

Neither Dunleavy nor Cole dared to say anything.

There are no more than three coaches in the league who can train their stars like grandchildren.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Min Congda didn't want to say anything more.

Before leaving, he said: "Next game, give me the damn game, don't disgrace me." Do you know that the most important thing in being a man is to be trustworthy, and if you say that you want to sweep, you must sweep. Otherwise, how can you mix in the alliance? How to make fans willing to buy tickets to watch the game? Rest well, lads, and we'll see you in the next round. ”

Two days later, on April 27, the Stamp Center, the fourth big match between the two sides.

Min Congda did not attend the game this time, and the position where Min Congda often sat behind the Clippers bench was vacant.

The Spurs are fighting for dignity this time, and if they are swept 0:4 by the first place in the West, it will be a great shame.

Black Eight has, but Black Eight was beaten by the opponent and had no power to fight back, and he couldn't win a game, there really hasn't been.

Spurs don't want to set this precedent, but the strength really doesn't allow it.

The whole Clippers team was inspired by Min Congda and knew that they must win this game and see the general manager in the next round.

Curry was not used to Min Congda's absence from the sidelines, so he found a photo and put it in Min Congda's fixed position.

In this game, the Clippers were all soldiers, trailing the Spurs by 9 points at 20:29 in the first quarter and trailing by 5 points at halftime.

In the second half, Curry led the team into a three-point frenzy, with Curry, Harden, Ricky Davis, and Matt Bonner hitting consecutive three-pointers.

In the third quarter, they played 35:16 in a single quarter, surpassing the opponent by 19 points, and directly knocked the series out of suspense.

At 105:93, the Clippers scored another home game and swept the first-ranked Spurs in the first round of the playoffs.

At the same time as completing the Black Eight, he also achieved the achievement of the Black Eight Sweep.

It's not even a miracle, because the opponent can't beat it.

The strength is too weak, how can it be called a miracle?
