Chapter 91: [Finals Showdown]
Suhi sat on the sidelines, watching the game intently.
Before the game began, Yao Ming and Kobe Bryant both went over to greet him and give him a high-five.
But the fans in Los Angeles booed Suhi.
The boos are unjustified.
It's the Spurs that are your opponents?
Aren't you supposed to boo the Spurs?
I'm also a spectator, so why should the audience be held at gunpoint?
The game started quickly.
This is the first time that Suhi has watched the pinnacle matchup in the West live this season.
As a spectator, appreciate it up close.
He could see more.
The Spurs were precise, they were well-planned in every movement, they were seamless.
Although the Lakers' side is not so precise, the core role of Yao Ming and Kobe Bryant is very clear, they are like two big anchors to determine the direction of the Lakers.
The two sides entered a fierce and anxious game from the start.
You come and go.
It's hard to solve.
At the end of the first quarter, the Spurs still had a one-point lead.
But in the second quarter, Yao Ming began to score consecutive points.
After he arrived at the Lakers, he changed some of his style of play, he didn't just dig the restricted area, he also got a lot of opportunities to shoot the frame, Kobe Bryant would pass him when he was caught in the middle, and Yao Ming's finish was very good.
His game-high 52 points this season is a career-high for him.
In the Rockets, he did not have such an opportunity.
Watching Yao Ming's continuous hits, Su Xi couldn't help but applaud him.
While both teams are potential rivals, the Lakers are even more terrifying.
However, Sushi still supports the Lakers to win more in his heart.
After all, he has a better relationship with Kobe and Yao Ming.
Yao Ming's strong play in the second quarter allowed the Lakers to overtake the score in the first half and return to the locker room with a three-point advantage.
Suhi sat on the sidelines, and a Hollywood female star accosted him.
"Jack, why are you tired of Scarlett, Jessica, and Fawkes? Don't like sexy female celebrities anymore? Hilary Duff asked Suhi.
Suxi said to her very honestly: "Why do you have such doubts? ”
"The media has already picked up that you and your Chinese girlfriend are wearing the same ring, and they think that you are already married, at least engaged." Hilary Duff is like a curious baby, and she is also part of the many gossip fans.
Suhi smiled.
He didn't continue to talk to Duff, lest the media report on it.
Hilary Duff was anxious to get an answer.
She kept asking.
So much so that Suhi had to call TNT's courtside reporters: "Why don't you come and interview me with a little bit of basketball?" The Hollywood actress always asks me about my private life. ”
Sushi was depressed.
"Who do you think will win the Lakers or the Spurs?"
The TNT reporter was so happy that he hurriedly asked.
"Lakers."
"Why?"
"Because Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming both choked the Spurs' death hole, and the Spurs didn't."
"Do you think there will be a tie-break in this series?"
"No, it won't."
"Why?"
"Because the Lakers are playing better and better."
"Are you worried that the Lakers' Finals are a threat to you?"
"I'm looking forward to playing against the Lakers, and they might be able to give us some real threats."
"Who do you think is stronger between this Lakers team and the Lakers who you met in the Finals before?"
"There's no doubt about it."
"Why? That team had four superstars. ”
"That Lakers team was actually vulnerable, and they didn't have a solid rotation at the time. Gary Payton and the Lakers' tactics are incompatible, and Karl Malone is old. Bryant and O'Neal are on their own. Defeating them is a matter of course. Not only can we beat him, but if the Pistons had made it to the Finals, we would have been able to take them down. ”
"But this year's Lakers are very different. This year's Lakers have a deeper roster, and Kobe Bryant is stronger and more selfless than he was back then. The most important thing is that although Yao Ming does not have O'Neal's destructive power, he and Kobe Bryant have a perfect tacit understanding, and there is no boss dispute between them. Yao Ming is the best super center for Kobe. ”
"You've said all that, do you think you have the confidence to beat the Lakers?"
"Of course."
"What do you think are the chances of the Knicks winning the Finals?"
"One hundred percent!"
"There won't be any surprises?"
"No!"
Sushi is determined.
His interview excited the North American audience, who finally got a positive answer from Suhi.
It turns out that Sushi supports the Lakers!
So will Suhey's support be correct?
Backbite!
The whistle blew and the second half came.
The Lakers launched a fierce attack in the third quarter, first Kobe Bryant back-to-back heads-up, and then Yao Ming kept making up shots.
The Lakers used a twin-tower strategy in the second half, and the Spurs were messed up by the duo of Yao Ming and Kwame Brown.
It's a bit like the Cavaliers' twin towers.
But the effect is much stronger than the Knight's Twin Towers.
After all, Kobe Bryant is not the kind of player who keeps rushing inside with the ball in his hand, and his scoring skills are very clever.
He was also willing to share the ball with Yao Ming, and Yao Ming played very easily.
This made O'Neill look very greedy.
It is only after loss that one realizes how valuable the original is to be owned.
Compared to LeBron James, Kobe Bryant is too fragrant.
The game was as Sushi predicted, and the Lakers gradually took the initiative.
The Spurs tried to use Yao's stamina to make some fuss in the fourth quarter.
But while Yao Ming was resting, Kobe Bryant held up the game.
When Yao Ming returned, a new round of harvesting began.
In the battle of Tianwang Mountain, the Lakers won by 13 points.
It was the most points won and the easiest game in the series.
The Lakers are getting better.
Spurs became their whetstone.
After the game, TNT's reporter told Kobe Bryant about Suhi's prediction.
Bryant showed his white teeth and said, "That's right, that's it, this guy at least has a little bit of vision, he's a guy who can watch the game." ”
"But he said the Knicks would beat the Lakers 100 percent."
"It's a kind of hiding the fear in his heart, he doesn't dare to face his true self at all."
"So, do you think the Lakers will win this year's championship?"
"Why not? With a lineup like ours, if we don't win the championship, it's too much to say! ”
Kobe Bryant said confidently: "The first guard plus the first center, the championship is just a plaything in our hands!" ”
Kobe Bryant was so proud.
The Spurs were very angry, and Popovich thought that Suhi was distracting from the morale of the army, and he felt that Suhi was deliberately making trouble.
"His prediction was wrong. A person who can play basketball does not necessarily comment on basketball. ”
"He deliberately said he was afraid of the Lakers because he was afraid of the Spurs."
"The whole world should be careful of this conspirator."
"Spurs won't be fooled, we're going to win this series. We're going to do a magic miracle. ”
Popovich made himself a victim: "Even if we were treated the same. ”
This is a real old yin ratio.
But these mouth cannons are meaningless, everything has to be spoken by the game.
In the next sixth game, Sushi proved that he was not Jordan. Not only does he play basketball, but he also judges basketball.
The Lakers won comfortably in San Antonio, and they even beat the Spurs by 15 points, once again breaking the latest record in the series.
Yao Ming had 35 points and 12 rebounds in this game, and Kobe Bryant had 38 points, 8 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
These two play a super template for the core of the inside and outside lines.
They are even stronger than the OK combination of the year.
The Knicks flew from New York to Los Angeles, even though Isaiah Thomas said there was no crisis and there was not a trace of worry at all.
But there is still some panic in the heart, the Lakers are getting stronger and stronger, and they have no confidence.
The players, though they say they don't care, are training hard in New York these days.
After Suxi joined them, she also practiced for two days in the basketball hall of UCLA.
The Knicks went to UCLA to practice, which attracted a lot of basketball players to come and watch.
Suhi even invited them to join the training team.
UCLA's current ace player is Collison, who plays well and has NBA standards.
But Sushi is more bullish on first-year students Westbrook and Kevin Love.
Even though Suhi didn't play in Los Angeles, that didn't stop these young kids from idolizing Suhi.
Westbrook also asked Sushi to sign his clothes, and Suhey refused to come, even giving him a pair of signed shoes. He said to the guard, who has amazing physical qualities and a very aggressive style of play: "If you get into the NBA, remember to come and give my shoes a spokesperson." ”
Westbrook is overjoyed, he doesn't have any NBA market at all. Because he is not a five-star high school student, he only served as a substitute for Collison in the team's recent season, and his playing time is pitiful.
But now the famous goat Suhi said that he could enter the NBA, and said that he wanted him to endorse his sneakers.
He hurriedly said excitedly: "Of course, as long as you need it, I can do it at any time." ”
"Come on! I'm optimistic about you. ”
Suhi said to him.
The Knicks practiced at UCLA for two days, and then the Finals began.
The game captured the global gaze.
Suhi and Kobe Bryant's super matchup.
Su Xi and Yao Ming's Chinese showdown.
Two of the largest cities in the East and West of the United States face off.
The NBA's signature star showdown.
Challenge Jordan's star against the star who most resembles Jordan.
This game is given a lot of meaning.
In fact, he has also thrilled basketball fans around the world.
Everyone is looking forward to the outcome of this game.
Can the Lakers stop the Knicks from defending their title?
Can Goat Sushi really complete the four-in-a-row championship?
Before that, Su Xi was interviewed by CCTV, and he sat with Yao Ming.
Together, they are the pinnacle of Chinese basketball.
Now, they're facing off in the finals, the highest hall of basketball.
For Chinese fans, it's really a happy trouble.
Although extreme fans will quarrel.
But most fans will feel happy: the palms and backs of their hands are full of meat, and whoever wins is happy, and they have to set off fireworks.
The game also attracted the attention of tens of millions of viewers across the country, many of whom skipped work and school just to watch the game.
Even some college entrance examination candidates also published some popular jokes on the Internet: The college entrance examination is held every year, but there is only one finals between Su Xi and Yao Ming.
Of course, most of this is the remarks of pretending to be college entrance examination candidates, and the real college entrance examination candidates are all pressed at home by their parents.
"It's a first for us, but for us, it's not an accident, we agreed to meet in the finals at the start of the new season. He did it, and I did. Yao Ming told the camera.
"Yao Ming to the Lakers is something I recommend, I don't think he's suitable to stay with the Rockets, I don't think the Rockets' roster is suitable for him, he can't be successful there. As it turned out, I was right. ”
Suhi said so.
"I have a lot of respect for Suhey, a lot of respect for the Knicks. But I think this year's championship is the Lakers. He's got three championship rings on his hand, and this year it's my turn. ”
"It's not about seniority, Yao. The Lakers can only win a championship in their dreams, and I honestly mean that the Knicks will settle the battle in six games! ”
"I thought you were going to say four to zero. This proves that you have no confidence at all, and you are scared. ”
"I never knew how to be afraid, I just kept a low profile."
"Hahahaha. Your low profile is too high-profile. ”
“……”
The two bickered in Chinese before the game.
When this segment was broadcast on CCTV, the fans in front of the TV would smile.
Obviously, this is a very loving scene for everyone.
It is also the most competitive and interesting matchup in the history of Chinese basketball.
Backbite!
The whistle blew.
In the anticipation of Chinese fans, the game officially began.
The Staples Arena was packed with a huge crowd of fans tonight, and they were crazy, they were here for the Lakers, and they were cheering for the Lakers.
The Lakers' five starters tonight are: Vujasic, Kobe Bryant, Lamar Odom, Kwame Brown, Yao Ming!
Twin towers!
Or three highs!
This lineup stole the Spurs through in the last series.
Now, it's the Knicks' turn.
The Knicks' starting lineup is: Gary Payton, Suhi, Stephen Jackson, Zach Randolph, Milicic.
-for-tat.
Both sides will bring out the most experienced lineups.
When the referee threw the basketball into the air on the halfway line, Yao Ming and Milicic jumped at the same time.
But Yao Ming's jump height was not high, and Milicic slapped the basketball to Suhi strongly.
Sushi held the ball and pushed forward, and Kobe Bryant followed.
Sushi arrives at the top of the arc and he passes the ball to Payton.
Payton and Stephen Jackson crossed screens and passed the basketball into the restricted area, Milicic got the basketball, he dribbled a shot, deceived Yao Ming, and threw a back-to-back jumper...... Bang! Basketball hits iron.
But at the moment when he hit the basketball iron, Suhi, wearing the blue away jersey of the Knicks, rushed into the restricted area like lightning, Kobe Bryant couldn't stop it at all, he watched Susie take off, pull the basketball away on top of Kwame Brown's head, and pour it into the basket...... Rumble!
Violent deduction on the spot.
Suhi kicked off the finals with a strong dunk.
After the goal, Suhi reached out and high-fived Milicic and told him: "Wonderful pass! ”
Milicic smiled, he liked Suhi's humor.
Even Kwame Brown loved it.
Milicic was appreciated for his mistakes.
What he gets now is Kobe's 'Death Glare'.
No wonder Milicic broke out.
He has love!
