110: 21 years old, Top of the West!
Playoffs 40-point triple-double!
That's what happened when the Spurs couldn't make an off-the-beaten-the-game move against Ryan!
With hard power, they can't do anything with Ryan at all!
Ryan's test directly measured the true level of the Spurs.
Don't rely on that kind of dirty means, the Spurs take the lead to win Tianwang Mountain!
After this game, Suns fans also have to call Ryan the lion king.
At the Pepsi Center, Nuggets fans were even more excited.
I don't know who started it, but for a while, the whole audience was shouting at the Spurs players: "Who is your daddy!?" ”
You don't have to think about it to know how shameful the Spurs players are at the moment, no matter what cultural background, "I'm your father" is an extremely insulting word.
With an overall score of 3-2, this is the closest the Nuggets have ever come to the Finals!
Although the final result of the Western Conference Finals is still inconclusive, at least the Nuggets are now the one with a better chance of qualifying!
Popovich suddenly has so many fathers, not to mention how aggrieved he is.
Losing Tianwang Mountain is not the most aggrieved, the most aggrieved thing is that this may be the first time he has been coerced by the other party by force!
In the past, he told Bowen to threaten others with force.
Even if Bowen doesn't succeed, in the face of a madman who wants to hurt you at any time, you will have palpitations and cause your performance to be dysfunctional.
So to let Bowen step on this trick, Popovich is tried and tested.
But today, on the contrary, he was threatened so that he did not dare to act rashly!
He left the pitch in a rage, unable to swallow his breath.
So at the post-match press conference, Popovich used his usual trick - the wicked sue first!
"Nene's foul on Duncan was a malicious and hurtful move! It's a violation of sportsmanship!
This kind of action alliance must be cracked down on! Don't tell me that it wasn't intentional, do you know about manslaughter? If you kill someone, you will go to jail! ”
Popovich was so angry that he barked like a mad dog at the press conference, on the one hand, he wanted to vent his grievances and dissatisfaction, and on the other hand, he also wanted to put pressure on the league.
If the league were to suspend Nene for a reason, it would be good news for the Spurs.
While Nene is not as useful as AK and Webb, he is still part of the Nuggets' main rotation.
If you can get rid of him, the next Spurs will undoubtedly have a better chance of winning.
However, to Popovich's surprise, this time, the reporters did not pity Duncan or sympathize with him as an old man.
A Denver journalist even asked Popovich rhetorically:
"Well, Bruce. Bowen was going to hurt Ray for last season's playoffs. Are Aaron and Lewis in charge? Although you said he didn't mean it in the playoffs last season, after all, manslaughter also goes to jail.
Thunder. Aaron is one of Bowen's few friends, but Bowen actually attacked his friend and kicked Ray after the pad. Aaron kicked in the back. When Bruce was doing these things, I didn't see you come forward and say anything like manslaughter. ”
Other journalists immediately chimed in:
"Vince. What did Carter say about manslaughter? ”
"Kobe Bryant should have something to say to you, after all, attempted murder is also a sentence!"
"Come on, Pop, it's clear that Bowen stepped into Ryan first, and you and I know it. It turns out that if you can't use special means, you're not worth mentioning in front of Ryan! ”
The press conference scene was completely out of control, and Popovich originally wanted to pretend to be pitiful and win sympathy after the game, but he didn't expect everyone to start a crusade against him!
He's a good old man, he can't pretend anymore!
The current Popovich is like a crack in 2023, don't shout everywhere how innocent he is, but in fact he does more dirty things!
And when the fig leaf is ripped off, he will be speechless in embarrassment!
You Popovich said that the Nuggets moved first and demanded a just trial.
Then who will give the justice of so many people before?
The reporters attacked in droves, not giving Popovich another chance to reverse right and wrong.
Popovich could only leave the press conference in the end, he was aggrieved enough to lose such a crucial game, but he didn't expect to be scolded by reporters after the game.
The most critical thing is
He simply couldn't argue with these journalists!
At this time, the reputation of the Spurs completely collapsed. Not only did they lose the game, but they also tarnished the team's image.
In the next day's newspapers, almost all the mainstream media were critical of Spurs:
"Coach Popovich was furious simply because he and the Nuggets had a fair battle against the Kings without any off-the-beaten-the-box moves."
"When the opposing team has no main players and is suspended or injured, the Spurs have no chance to win at all!"
"Nene: I'm just clumsy, I can't stop the car."
Nene's words in the interview made Popovich stunned last night and couldn't sleep!
This Brazilian doesn't want Bilian too much!
What's wrong with Nene? He's just learning from the Spurs' previous experience.
The spurs and the bao are all dirty and smelly, and they can still pretend to be pure without Bilian.
What's wrong with a clean interior?
In addition to the media, even many other stars have come out to attack the Spurs at this moment.
Bowen used to be one of the few friends of Ray. When Aaron was a guest on a radio show, he bluntly said:
"Bowen and Popovich are not respectable opponents, and I've seen through their tricks for a long time.
I played only 13 minutes in Game 1 of the playoffs last year when Bowen got injured.
If you look closely at Bowen's game footage, you'll see that he doesn't have a few defensive rounds that are clean.
Ryan has to be careful next, because once he can't stop you, he won't let go of any opportunity to let you go straight out! ”
Carter also gave his opinion on the TV show:
"Bruce was the only player I wanted to beat him up.
Being tough is not the same as being dirty, you can be tough, but you can't defend with the intention of hurting the opponent.
For someone like him to receive a championship ring is simply an insult to a championship ring. ”
The Spurs' wave has profoundly interpreted what it means to be pushed by the wall, their reputation has completely collapsed, and now the whole world is waiting to see Ryan give the Spurs the final blow!
Before that, though, the Eastern Conference Finals results were in.
The Detroit Pistons, who had been in the East in previous seasons, finally lost to the Heat in six games in this year's Eastern Conference Finals!
Heat Eastern Conference Champions? It doesn't matter. Importantly, Cleveland fans can proudly tell the world: "Cavaliers are the runner-up in the East!" ”
How can losing to the Eastern Conference champion not be an honor?
In fact, James is really not ashamed to lose to the Heat, you must know that last season, the Heat regretted losing seven times because of Wade's injury, otherwise they would have entered the Finals.
No, this season's healthy Wade and the Sharks didn't give the Pistons a chance at all.
Wade and the Sharks also performed quite well in the Eastern Conference Finals, Wade averaged 26+5+5 per game, and the most important thing is that under the defense of the Pistons, the average shooting rate per game was as high as 61.7%!
The Sharks also averaged 21+10+2 blocks per game, and their 65.5% shooting percentage was quite good.
Two best products surround you at the same time, what else can you do except disarm?
With such a shark and Wade, it's hard not to remind people of the OK combo that ruled the league a few years ago!
An incredibly strong Heat is already in place in the Finals, and the slower the Nuggets and Spurs get around, the longer it will take for the Heat to recover, and the greater the advantage.
Therefore, the Nuggets' goal is undoubtedly to solve the Spurs in Game 6, and they can't give the Heat too much time to adjust and rest!
But the Spurs are the defending champions after all, after all, they have also won the Nuggets twice in the series.
It is believed that at this moment's time, the Spurs may burst out with more power.
But Lane said bluntly in front of G6: "The Spurs have become history, and we are already studying the Miami Heat!" ”
Maddie: I'm familiar with that!
Bird certainly knew that Ryan's words would spark the nerves of Spurs players.
But he didn't stop Ryan.
Bird understands Ryan's current mood, he has been suppressed for too long, and when the grievances of the past two years are about to be vented, who can bear it?
A reporter thought of this and asked Bird, "Larry, aren't you worried about Ryan angering the Spurs?" ”
Bird pouted: "What if it's provoked?" I have a player who can score a 40-point triple-double in the playoffs! Whether they are angry or not, they can't change the outcome of the game! ”
Reporter:
Most teams are player maniacs and managers are poiseful.
The Nuggets are good, the head coach is crazier than the players!
On the day of the start of G6, Ryan had just entered the stadium and was doing the whole thing.
When he entered, the reporters found out that Ryan was wearing a blindfold today!
Lane, who was wearing an eye patch, couldn't see the road at all, and it was Kirilenko and Webb who led him into the player's tunnel with one of Lane's hands.
In the NBA, there are all kinds of strange outfits, and reporters are not surprised. In the future, there will even be a trendsetter in the fashion industry like Adu, and the GOAT in the handsome guy world.
Dan Nima. Wearing an eye patch is really the first time I've seen it in the world!
It's not a dress anymore, it's performance art!
Is Ryan accomplishing some master's task? No, if it's the master's task, then today should be what kind of mess in Daddariose!
This strange shape caused reporters to flock to Ryan and gossip around Ryan:
"Ryan, is this some kind of performance art?"
"I will! Ryan is taunting the referee for being blind! ”
"No, it's a call for teenagers to stay away from electronics and play more sports on the court!"
In the face of reporters' inquiries and speculations, the first blind monk in the United States smiled slightly:
"Popovich knows what I mean, I'm Triglav with an eyepatch today!
Triglav is the god of war in Yugoslav culture, and usually wears an eye patch, because he has a low tolerance for crime, and if he keeps looking at the world, he is afraid that he will not be able to control himself and destroy mankind.
And today, when I go to the court to take off my blindfold and see the sins of the Spurs, I will not hesitate to destroy them! ”
Good guys, after listening to Ryan's explanation, the reporters called out good guys!
It's the first time they've seen such a literate star with such a neat job!
Popovich was an American, but a Yugoslav. Therefore, Ryan's style can be described as highly targeted!
This wave is simply the interpretation of the highest level of cultural decoration!
When Popovich saw Ryan's way of entering, his face was redder than a monkey's ass.
Also God of War? You really think of yourself as a person, don't you?
Who can win the G6 and say not necessarily!
Series G6, it can be seen that the Spurs are really trying to pull one back.
Duncan delivered three blocks in the first quarter alone, and the all-time No. 1 forward was doing his best to drag his team forward a little bit, a little more!
But Duncan's dying throes didn't stop the Nuggets.
The Nuggets are all soldiers today, even Monta, who has been silent for 4 games. Ellis also woke up again.
In this game, the team that has been suppressed has become the Spurs.
The point difference in the game has not been particularly large, but the Spurs just can't catch up, or even draw!
Halfway through the fourth quarter, the Nuggets were still firmly ahead.
Inside the ATT Center, Spurs fans felt as if the entire arena was collapsing.
The curse that Spurs have never defended seems to be coming true again!
Nuggets fans applauded and laughed at home.
They're about to see the Nuggets reach the Finals for the first time in history!
And in the end, what really killed the game was really the Chinese special version of Yugoslav God of War who took off the blindfold.
He severely punished the spurs for their sins!
When Ryan found the battle of Tianwang Mountain again in the fourth quarter, he completely ignored the feeling and state of defense.
He hit Bowen on the top of the head and grabbed an offensive rebound on top of Duncan's head.
He risked Parker and suppressed the French defender for six games.
He steals Ginobili's adventurous pass and tells the Argentine: If there is one person in this series who can be called a "miracle", it can only be himself!
The defending champions can no longer restrain Ryan and the powerful Nuggets, and Ryan vents all his anger and unwillingness.
"There are players who just appear strong in the media publicity."
"The Spurs are the Detroit Pistons that belong to Ryan, and they will torment him for a long, long time."
"Popovich and Duncan are Ryan's eternal nightmare!"
"Ryan is strong, but he can't do anything in Duncan's prime!"
"Jordan may be able to break up the bad boys, but Ryan won't necessarily be able to beat the Spurs."
"There's no way he's going to get out of Texas!"
Now, all these doubts and ridicules will be broken by Ryan himself!
In the last 37 seconds of the game, the Desperate Demon Knife pulled up a life-saving three-pointer against the defense of AK47. After this goal, the Spurs were only 4 points behind.
But after the attack, Ryan's jump shot after covering turned into two free throws under Ginobili's defensive foul!
Ginobili's foul was unnecessary, he pounced so hard that almost the whole person crashed into Ryan.
Truth be told, if it was normal interference that caused Ryan's shot to miss, the Spurs would still have a chance to struggle.
But Ginobili's foul was to cover the spurs with a white cloth with his own hands. Because of the free throws, Ryan is almost impossible to concede!
When the referee's whistle blew, Ginobili covered his head with his hands in frustration.
He had just saved the team with a three-pointer, but immediately pushed the team into the abyss with a foul.
This is Ginobili, the demon knife has a very wide range of damage, so if it is not good, it is easy to hurt yourself.
And at the moment, Spurs fans can only nervously watch as Ryan stands on the free throw line.
They had the feeling of being tied to the execution table and watching the executioner cut off their heads!
If this is a sports battle round, you can still expect a defense.
But free throws. The Spurs are powerless to resist and can only accept fate!
Counting on Ryan, who is shooting 90% of his free throws this season, missed two free throws? Then it's better to count on the Trisolarans to come.
Ryan didn't leave any room for illusions on the Spurs, and the God of War, who took off his blindfold, punished the San Antonio people for their sins.
"Two free throws, two hits! Ryan, with the last 23 seconds leading the team by 6 points!
The Spurs struggled all night today, and they pressed the score close countless times.
But this is a kick in the door, and you just can't get through! Because Ryan was in front of them!
Ryan scored 34 points in the game, and he is about to cross his nightmare and step into a new level! ”
After those two free throws, Ryan was already raising his arms in celebration.
Robert. Horry saved the Spurs with five three-pointers in a single game in the Finals last season, including a three-pointer in the final five seconds.
But today, even Horry has to surrender to Ryan's feet.
It's impossible for this role player king to save the Spurs every time, especially from Ryan!
With Horry's last-minute life-saving three-point pop out of the frame, some Spurs fans in the stands have covered their faces and cried!
Popovich didn't wait for the game to be completely over, and he turned around and left the field angrily.
He didn't want to congratulate the Nuggets in any way, refusing to show any bit of grace. In a very villainous way, he ended the Spurs' domination of the West since 2003!
Since the OK Lakers and GDP Spurs, the West in the 21st century has ushered in a new young ruler!
At the end of the game, the whole Nuggets team rushed into the stadium!
They didn't care about the Spurs who left the game early, they didn't care about the boos at the scene.
Who cares about a team whose name has been carved into their tombstone!?
Ryan looked at the confetti falling from the sky, looked at his teammates who hugged him around him, and couldn't help but shout three times with his fist:
"! Exercise! Exercise! ”
The feeling of finally playing the game card level for half a day, the feeling of watching the annual income card finally pass 200,000 in half a day, and the feeling of finally boiling through the hard days, made Ryan can only use this great word to vent his emotions for a while!
The Nuggets didn't know what Ryan was yelling about, but in their excitement they decided to follow the leader and shout, "! Exercise! Exercise! ”
This must be a very passionate word in Chinese, right?
The CCTV studio hurriedly turned down the volume, but that didn't dampen the excitement of the Chinese fans.
Imagine how exciting it would have been if a rocket had defeated Jazz one day in history!
And now, Lane Che has really given Chinese fans this happiness!
In the media hype of the past two years, the Spurs have been like a huge abyss, and Ryan can't climb out of it anyway.
But now, Ryan is a king, and he has completely trampled the spurs under his feet!
At the scene, Magic Johnson has already appeared and is ready to present the Western Conference championship trophy to the Nuggets.
The magician looked at his old friend Bird and shrugged, "You did it, Larry." ”
Bird nodded, "Just have a hand, Maggi." ”
Magician:
Then, under the eyes of the world, Ryan took over the Western Conference championship trophy in the hands of the Magic at the age of 21, at the age of countless great superstars, or in college, or in his rookie season!
In the third year, at the age of 21, Ryan took the Nuggets to the championship position in the Western Conference - the highest peak in the team's history!
The greatest playmaking guard in history, wearing five rings on his hand, and the Shuangwen male protagonist Magic, who won the championship with the team and won the FMVP in his rookie season, smiled and patted Ryan on the shoulder:
"You're the only player who can do the same thing as me at the same age, come on, young lion!"
Ryan said "thank you", and then, the spherical Western Conference championship trophy was raised above his head on the Spurs' turf!
The host quickly approached Bird and began the interview:
"Larry, the first year of leading the team, won the Western Conference championship in a breakthrough! Let's sum up the team's performance this year! ”
Bird waved his hand:
"It's not me who led the team, it's the young man next to me who has led the team to where it is now!
Also, it's not time to wrap up.
Half a month later, when we meet again at the award ceremony of the finals, I will slowly summarize it for you! ”
Western Conference Champions?
That was never Bird's ultimate goal!
Only the championship is worthy of the status of the first in the league in the regular season!
And Bird is also very confident about the next finals!
As Jordan said to Bird before the start of the season, those days when he looked at death with the Bad Boys, those days when he sweated himself in the breakfast club, were the final test the world gave him.
Ryan too, the last two years of hard work and tonight's victory have given him everything he needs to succeed.
Now, he's more than capable of challenging for the championship!
MVP, DPOY, Double First Team, Western Conference Champion. This season, Ryan has won enough accolades.
Now, distance becomes the true king.
That's just the last step!
