In the first quarter of the Staples Center, with Su Feng's excellent performance of "God must call him God", the Lakers at home entered the second quarter with a 10-point lead.
On the field, the two teams scored 31-41 in the first quarter.
It's not the first time in the NBA that a player has scored more points than the opposing team combined in a single quarter.
However, Su Feng's good state tonight made Van Gundy aware of something wrong.
Because compared with the previous basketball who relied more on dry pulls and mid-range shots, after losing the constraints of the rules, the dominance brought by his full-scale model has surpassed people's perception of basketball. .
And what's more, in the previous Western Conference semifinals between the Lakers and the Clippers, Su Feng got plenty of rest time?
well known.
In Su Feng's memory, even if the boss Qiao of the last three companies is better, it is an indisputable fact that his assault ability is not as good as before. .
In addition, Boss Qiao does not have the ability to hit a wave of ultra-high crit through outside strikes when he feels good in hand like Su Feng.
Hence the reason why Van Gundy was more anxious tonight than last season when he was behind...
It wasn't because he was afraid of Su Feng's "good state".
after all......
In a relatively long series of matches, there will always be times when Su Feng is in better condition than usual.
But when Van Gundy asked himself...
This night's Su Feng's state exceeded the time of last season's "God descends to the world"...
He has very few hairs at all...
But completely mad.
Because there is no restriction of the HC rules, Su Feng can make breakthroughs on the field more easily, so even when he is not feeling well, he can continue to score points for the team through suicide attacks.
Just like last year, when Zhan Zhan was in good physical condition, the Lakers didn't do much with him.
It is true that it is a technical job that consumes a lot of physical energy.
But the Lakers' relatively easy playoff journey and Su Feng's own outrageous physical reserves made Van Gundy unable to think of a better way to limit him.
Having served as an assistant in the Lakers, Van Gundy, who knew Su Feng very well, knew it very well.
Once in the game, the Warriors care too much about Su Feng's breakthrough, then this guy will definitely adjust his attack method.
Simply put...
Compared to being smashed by Su Feng, Van Gundy was obviously more worried about this guy's outside shooting.
Because countless cases in the past have already proved that when Su Feng feels online, he can easily reverse the situation of a game.
To put it bluntly, in the NBA, does anyone dare to let Su Feng vote?
dare not?
That's it.
And as for preventing Su Feng's breakthrough by pinching at the right time?
The question is, Su Feng's passing ability and organizational ability, which can be called a master of the generation...
Once in the game, the rest of the Lakers were fully mobilized by him.
At that time, as these Lakers players come back to feed him...
How should the Warriors defend?
In terms of comprehensive conditions in all aspects, James is indeed one of the few players in the league who can compete with Su Feng.
But just like in the early years, in order to invite Boss Joe down from the sky, the notorious Pistons had to use at least four people...
Because James' body center of gravity is higher.
So tonight, in front of Su Feng who lost the HC rules.
He seems to be Scottie Pippen, who was tortured by Iverson and wanted to give Jordan an old punch.
The second half of the first quarter.
It's not that Van Gundy didn't consider using Butler or Klay to play against Su Feng.
But compared to James...
Both of them have a very obvious disadvantage when defending Su Feng.
In other words, neither of them could limit Su Feng's shooting in various areas.
In Su Feng's previous life, fans who have seen the comparison chart of Jiba and Xiaoka's arms should know that Jiba is also a member of the NBA "T-Rex family".
Since the wingspan is only about 201 cm...
Therefore, on the premise that Su Feng could not be restrained by using "holding the waist" like last season, Su Feng's "hooligan play" tonight can be said to beat the young Jiba to tears.
Clay did the same.
Therefore, it is better to be blown up by Su Feng...
The whole team combined to score in a single quarter is not as good as him alone.
Van Gundy's real distress at the moment is...
At present, the cost of Su Feng's shot is no longer determined by the warriors.
Instead, he can choose a more cost-effective shot based on his physical fitness, and use this to ensure his endurance in subsequent games.
"Now, I finally understand why this season's Lakers always give me a very different feeling from last season..." On the Warriors' bench, after a long sigh, I saw Van Gundy sighed helplessly.
Last season, Su Feng also broke out.
But you can obviously find that the warriors can always find ways to increase Su Feng's shot cost.
Even, because last year Kobe's state was better than this year, the Warriors could still take the strategy of pinching Kobe.
New York, this night, just after the first quarter, Mark, who was about to take office, once again felt Stern's previous good intentions in selecting major awards.
Because it turns out...
Once Su Feng loses the shackles of the rules...
Then he is like a mushroom bomb that can be detonated at any time.
If you want to explode, just explode.
His life is in his hands.
However, compared to the first quarter, what really made Van Gundy desperate was the second quarter.
Because no matter what, Su Feng is now a 36-year-old veteran.
So his physical fitness is definitely not as good as it was a few years ago.
But this season, with Middleton, Adams growing up...
At present, the Lakers already have a backup team no less than the Warriors.
In the second quarter, Livingston, Bogdanovic, Green, Middleton and Adams grabbed sufficient rest time for Su Feng.
On the court, facing the Lakers' difficult second lineup, no matter how experienced the Warriors' bench composed of a bunch of ex-star players is, it is impossible to quickly fill the hole left by the main players when everyone is in equal condition.
On the sidelines, in order to enhance the stability of the Warriors' scoring in the second quarter, Van Gundy was even forced to replace the 34-year-old Yao in advance.
"David, do we need to put some proper restrictions on Su in the next game?" Mark asked, looking at the Lakers in New York, the strongest in history.
"No......
We are a 'fair, open and just' coalition.
Why do we use these dirty tricks to disrupt or disrupt the original balance of the game? "Looking back at Mark, Stern said solemnly.
Although as the commissioner of the NBA, you don't necessarily need to know the ball.
But even the "layman" Mark has already seen the difference between this year's Western Conference finals and last year's Western Conference finals.
If it is said that in last year's Western Conference Finals, the Warriors always forced the Lakers to make passive adjustments, but it was only because their experience was not as good as the Lakers' talent that led to the team's final defeat...
Then this year...
You can fully understand that, at this moment, it is the Warriors who are forced to parry the wave after wave of the Lakers' offense.
In Mark's view, all of this has to be attributed to Stern's desire to see how high Su Feng can reach after losing the rules before retiring.
Maybe, some people will say, it's just a rule, how could it have such a big impact on the game?
really.
For the best players in NBA history.
No matter how the rules change, as long as everyone gets the same diet, training, and growth conditions, they are destined to do great things.
but......
You can also try to think about it in your head.
If when you are playing, the opponent can unscrupulously put his hands around your waist in various positions;
It will even give you some sacks that can only be seen in the NFL in the game;
Even when you're ready to finish with a layup or various offensive techniques, the referee will always turn a blind eye to the defense's action that makes Jordan cry...
Then you can understand why he is stronger than Su Feng and has only won 10 championships so far.
In this life, as early as the end of the 20th century, "God Count" Pat Riley had foreseen that Su Feng would dominate the NBA in a way that far surpassed Jordan's in the future.
only......
Even if it was Riley, who was "reckless", he didn't expect Su Feng to be able to maintain such a state at the age of 36.
Staples Center.
this night.
Why didn't Su Feng's sentence "God must call me God" at the end of the first quarter not make him most disgusted?
Because it's different from those "madmen" in the sports arena.
Su Feng really has such strength.
The second half of the second quarter.
What Van Gundy feared the most before has finally happened.
Because of the smooth and good offense in the first quarter, Su Feng's state is getting better and better...
"Heaven! The earth! This can also enter?" CCTV, watching Su Feng on the court throwing the ball into the hoop with all kinds of difficulties that violated human common sense...
Yu Jia always felt that he was explaining a science fiction film this night.
"That's what made Michael Jordan so scary back then.
but......
Even Michael Jordan, he had to submit to Su! "ESPN, watching that incredible scene, Pippen said.
on the field.
James looks drunk.
At this moment, I am intoxicated and dreamy.
At the Staples Center, when Su Feng's verse-like graceful backwards turned over and over again and again in front of him, James only felt that his body and soul seemed to be receiving the most sacred baptism in the world.
It is as fast as the wind, it comes without a shadow, and goes without a trace.
Moving like thunder, in the rain and dew, Jun's grace is mighty.
In James' view, this is the most perfect combination of flexibility and strength in human history.
Also a great chapter written with skill and experience.
The legs are naturally a pair of spring legs equipped with anti-gravity engines.
The waist is also a colorful treasure waist that has experienced hundreds of battles.
Hold the ball lightly with your left hand.
Just a flick of the right hand.
There is no booze in your back.
I'm as drunk as a dog.
In the second half of the second quarter, Su Feng, who made 7 of 9 shots, scored another 18 points for the Lakers in the free throw half of the quarter.
At halftime, on the court, the score between the two Huyong teams was 60-72.
Just like how Su Feng racked his brains back then, he couldn't do anything about the guy who likes to stick his tongue out.
On this night, James also had nothing to do with Su Feng, the "foreign visitor".
After the halftime break, in the third quarter, Curry, Klay, and James fired on the outside one after another, successfully giving the Warriors fans the hope of overtaking the score.
But on the Lakers side, Middleton and Kobe Bryant immediately responded.
At this point in this G1 game, the Warriors players on the court always feel that no matter what they do, they are wrong.
Because of this period, as Su Feng used his own "Maple Gravity" to attract the attention of the Warriors' defense line, other Lakers players could always find opportunities to take shots calmly at the junction of the Warriors' defense line.
TNT TV, Stackhouse used O'Neal and Howard as an example to the fans in front of the TV, why is it also "20+10", O'Neal will give people a stronger sense of pressure on the field?
"Because Shaq will ruthlessly destroy your entire defense.
And Dwight is someone you can give up on defense. "
At this moment, Su Feng's magical performance had already thrown the Warriors' defensive system into disarray.
And, due to the continuous defensive failure, it will also affect the player's mentality when attacking...
Therefore, although from the point of view of the score, the tenacious Warriors never let the difference between the two teams widen to more than 15 points.
But the Lakers have always controlled the direction of the game.
In the last quarter, both Su Feng and Kobe were put on the bench by Lu's guidance at the beginning.
Originally, this was the best chance for the Warriors to chase points.
However, in the regular season, the Lakers swept the Warriors 4-0 with a psychological advantage, but instead, the Lakers' substitutes successfully dragged the Warriors' main force in the opening stage of the distal quarter.
In basketball games, the team with a stronger lineup is of course the team with a higher winning rate.
However, in a partial period of time, the side that does not have the upper hand is also likely to perform better.
On the court, the more and more eager Warriors players had to gamble with three-pointers.
However, the impatience of the mentality and the anxiety of always falling behind have affected the quality of their shots in the final quarter.
Especially in the last 6 minutes of the last quarter, after Director Lu changed Su Feng and Kobe back.
Su Feng's "deep impression" on the Warriors players made the Warriors players on the court more and more breathless...
then......
In the end, 115 to 127.
The Lakers, who maintained their lead until the end, successfully got a good start to this year's Western Conference Finals.
Throughout the game, Su Feng, who scored 51 points for the Lakers in the first half, focused more on organizing the team's offense and defense in the second half.
However, with a total of 62 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists for the Lakers, he once again set the record for the oldest single-game "60+" in the NBA playoffs.
In this game, Kobe made few shots, only 11 shots in the audience.
But in the third quarter when the Warriors were the most aggressive in chasing points, Bryant scored the most crucial 12 of his 17 points for the Lakers.
Warriors here.
James, who scored 25 points, 9 rebounds, and 11 assists for the Warriors, from his personal performance, you can't say that he was blown up by Su Feng like he was playing Anthony.
However, in an interview with the media after the game, James believed that it was the irreversible strength gap between him and Su Feng that caused the Warriors to lose this night.
no doubt.
Xiao Zhan Zhan has been completely convinced by his idol, his basketball guide.
"I know, you all expected me to lead the Warriors to defeat Sue and end his dominance of the NBA.
But in my eyes, the only one who can beat him is himself. "In an interview with the media, I saw James summed up his insights on this night in this way.
"Then can you talk about what countermeasures you and your team will take against Su next?" the reporters in the locker room asked.
James nodded and said, "Of course, basketball is a five-man sport.
So even though Su is still invincible, I don't think we should be discouraged by this.
As long as we can catch some of their other players' problems...
This round of the series, we still have the last laugh. "
I have to say that in this life, after experiencing more and more failures, James’s mentality has gotten better and better when he encounters problems.
only......
Reason is so...
It's just that to some people, it's not like that.
"What is it because Su can't win, so we will focus on how to beat his teammates in the next game?" The next day, I wanted to find some reports about him in the major newspapers in Los Angeles. .
Because whether it is the "Los Angeles Post", "Los Angeles Documentary", or other newspapers and magazines, in their reports on the G1 game of the Western Conference finals, in addition to putting their own data, they did not even mention their own name. to several times!
"Oh!
The great Su Feng is at the Staples Center again!
On this night, God has to call him God too! "
"Time and years take away our memories of the past.
But it makes us even more convinced that in this era, Su is the only GOAT in the basketball world! "
"Shock! The second in history of hypocrisy succeeds in holding his legs again, and he may tie Michael Jordan with a win..." In the mansion in Newport, watching this share compete to blow his own Newspaper, Su Feng has entered a mode where he can't stop at all.
"What kind of junk media is this?
Without the 12 points I scored in the third quarter, the Lakers would have been overtaken by the Warriors, okay? "Besides, looking at Su Feng who was reading the newspaper extremely happily, Kobe said with a dissatisfied expression.
"Then may I ask, in your impression, is there any media that is not in this world?" Su Feng asked rhetorically.
Hearing this, after thinking about it for a while, Kobe said: "I feel quite objective.
Because they can always blow me from a different angle. "
Su Feng: "..."
"However, judging from the calm speeches of Jeff and LeBron after the game, they seem to have found a way to deal with us..." Bryant said suddenly, touching his chin.
"You mean what Jeff and LeBron said after the game, what changes they will make in the next game?" Su Feng asked rhetorically.
"Yes." Kobe nodded and said.
"Oh my dear Kobe, you've been in the NBA for almost 20 years...
Don't you know that LeBron and Jeff's postgame composure and said change is just a show? "Su Feng asked.
"But who do they do and say to?
media? we? "Kobe wondered.
"The media who really understand the ball will never believe the changes that the losing side promised after the game," Su Feng said.
"Then who else can they do and tell?" Kobe asked.
"Certainly those who still believe they have a chance to win this series.
When studying with Tyron, Jeff had already fully mastered the skills of how to communicate with the media.
And not to mention LeBron...
This kid is better at dealing with the media than I am. "Patting Kobe on the shoulder, Su Feng said.
Looking at Su Feng, Kobe was obviously still a little confused.
So, Su Feng gave Kobe an example, "Look, if it were you, you would definitely walk back to the locker room with a black face after losing.
And then there's a lot more for the media to write about after the game.
For example, "Kobe is dissatisfied with the performance of his teammates", "The loss of the first game of the Western Conference finals has caused a gap in the Lakers." "
Kobe: "..."
"However, after LeBron's sunny speech, in addition to my fans praising him for his humility because of him blowing me up, the Warriors fans will also have a feeling of 'not proud of winning, not discouraged by defeat' in their hearts. 'impression.
In this way, even if the Warriors lose this series in the end, people will think that LeBron did his best, he did not lose, and the overall strength of the Warriors is not enough. "Looking at Kobe, Su Feng continued.
In Su Feng's original time and space, don't look at Kobe's many golden sentences in an interview...
But among the NBA's top stars...
Kobe Bryant is definitely one of the stars who doesn't know how to deal with the media.
It is true that sometimes being too sophisticated is not necessarily a good thing...
But there are times when you have to be sophistication to twist the rope...
In terms of mediation, Kobe is obviously not as good as the "old hooligan" when he was still in service.
In Su Feng's previous life, in the last three companies of the Bull, almost every year, the Bull was on the verge of disintegration.
But even in the last year of Pippen's frenzied death because of dissatisfaction with his annual salary, Jordan was trying his best to tighten the ropes.
"So, that's why you always show your face paralyzed?" Kobe suddenly realized.
Su Feng: "..."
After a day off, the Lakers continue to host the Warriors at home.
As Su Feng expected.
During the rest of the night in Los Angeles, whether it was Van Gundy or James, it can be described as sleepless nights.
After G1, Van Gundy and James both believed that the rest of the Lakers were the Warriors' breakthrough.
But in the actual game...
Ask if you don't understand.
How can you break through the defense line composed of Gasol, Garnett, Kobe, and Rondo?
Same as last year.
In the duel between Hu Yong, whoever has better offense will have the last laugh.
Therefore, the only way for Van Gundy to improve the Warriors' offense is to increase the minutes of the main players.
At Staples, Curry's "curse" continues.
But in the first game, Curry, who would take more dislocation breakthroughs on the offensive end, shared a lot of pressure on James.
Moreover, when Curry and James are on the court at the same time, it is also when the Warriors' offense is most efficient.
However, once Curry is off the court.
No one on the Warriors bench can replace him.
Veteran Terry made three-pointers accurately, but he couldn't dribble, organize, and help James with space like Curry.
The Warriors' relatively stable outside Klay is irreplaceable.
Because even if the veteran Ray Allen's ability to seize opportunities is not weaker than Clay, who occasionally has a nerve knife, his critical strike rate can't be compared with that of Clay at the moment.
And what's more, the Warriors have to rely on one of Klay and Butler to defend Kobe, and occasionally relieve James?
So, don't look at the number of star players on the Warriors bench...
After the Lakers got stronger again this year, in fact, only Chandler and Butler are really useful for this Warriors team.
Without the help of the HC rules, the 34-year-old Kirilenko and the 34-year-old Artest, who were also 34 years old, could only be beaten by one step when facing Su Feng.
As for Paul Pierce, who chose to join the Warriors last summer?
It is true that in previous games, Pierce, who came off the bench, can always make an extraordinary contribution for the Warriors.
But in a game like Hu Yong, where gods fight each other...
Ask if you don't understand.
Who can 36-year-old Pierce fool with experience?
good......
Even if you Pierce is very efficient in singles this season.
But......
With James, Curry, Yao Ming, and Klay to choose from...
As the head coach, do you dare to give Pierce the chance to decide the fate of the team in this kind of game?
So, compared to the younger Lakers bench, each with their own unique skills...
This year, the Warriors' veterans have in turn become a liability for the Warriors.
Van Gundy can play a lot to look like.
But in Su Feng's eyes, there are only seven or eight people at most.
In a sense, this also proves that the LOGO man is not a cross party.
Because if the LOGO man really crosses the party...
Then how could Su Feng be so him when it came to building the team?
In the first quarter of the game, on this night, the Warriors with higher team offensive efficiency led 35-34.
However, the second quarter game fully confirmed the advanced nature of Su Feng's team building ideas.
Judging from career statistics, Livingston is indeed much weaker than Terry, who has won the best sixth man.
But at this juncture in 2014, Livingston's ability to transform into a "Sea Jordan" in a short period of time is far beyond Terry's.
In addition, after a whole season of experience, once Middleton is sent by the Lakers, the Warriors are bound to send a star player to match him.
On the front line, Green's playing time has shrunk to 16 minutes per game this season.
But the defense of Peak Tielin was the start of the second team.
As for Bogdanovic...
The most inconspicuous player on the Lakers bench.
This season, he has actually grown into a playmaker for the Lakers' second unit.
In theory, the Warriors' biggest advantage against the Lakers was their interior.
After all, the combination of Xiao Yao and Chandler...
No matter what era you put it in, it is the top configuration.
But in this year's Western Conference finals, the only injured person is Xiaojia.
Because the 34-year-old Yao Ming's physical strength can support him to play two and a half quarters at most...
So after entering the second lineup rotation...
Adams, who the Lakers selected last summer, is at least 50-50, not to mention that he can suppress Chandler.
At the Staples Center, in the VIP stand, Kupchak, who won the NBA season's best general manager again this year, only felt that even if Su Feng didn't play in the future, he would be able to manipulate the development of the NBA behind the scenes.
Because compared to those superstars who always like to yell at my teammates and need reinforcement...
Kupchak found that Su Feng not only has sufficient patience in building the team, but also has a very unique vision.
"Before this round of the Western Conference finals, I remember that when the media compared the strength of the two teams, most people thought that the Warriors' bench was far stronger than the Lakers." Looking at Bass, Kupchak said.
"but now......
I'm afraid no one thinks that way! "After a pause, Kupchak continued.
This night, relying on the performance of the bench players in the first half of the second quarter, the Lakers were able to enter the second half with a 5-point lead.
In the game, Su Feng's performance was still stable, but his state was not as good as the previous game.
After all, the best players have to abide by the basic law of heaven and earth.
In the third quarter of the game, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, who wanted to win Su Feng once, played the hardest part of the Lakers team, Xiao Jia.
However, before the end of the third quarter, Su Feng, Kobe, and Curry hit key three-pointers for the Lakers one after another.
At the end of the game, Van Gundy, who had already realized that the Warriors could only rely on their main force to make a comeback, kept James, Curry, Yao Ming, and Klay on the court.
However, with the deepening of the game, in a showdown with a much higher consumption intensity than ordinary games, you may not believe it when you say it...
This night, the Lakers, led by the "old and rare combination", gave the main players plenty of rest time.
In the second half of the last quarter, the media used the title of "Shocked! The hypocritical second in history may succeed in holding his legs again" to an angry Kobe who turned on his face-slapping mode.
In the end, with Kobe's 13-point performance in the last 7 minutes of the final quarter, the Lakers took the lead at home and scored another victory.
In the whole game, the two teams finished the game with a score of 121 to 128.
Su Feng scored 40 points, 14 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block for the Lakers.
Kobe Bryant had 25 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists, and 1 steal.
Middleton, who played as the sixth man, had the team's third-highest 19 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 assist.
Adams, who played only 22 minutes, grabbed a game-high seven offensive rebounds.
And Livingston, who successfully grabbed the rest time for Suko, scored 12 points and 3 rebounds in 13 minutes and 35 seconds of playing time.
On the Warriors side, James played at the MVP level in this game.
The game totaled 30 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists for the Warriors.
In addition, Curry and Klay also scored 21 and 18 points respectively.
Limited by physical fitness, Xiao Yao, who made all the first 7 shots, made only 2 of his last 7 shots.
Two days later, in the third game of the Western Conference finals in Oakland, the Warriors successfully pulled back a city.
At Oracle Arena, Van Gundy, who was enlightened, only used 8 rotations in the game.
Curry ushered in a big explosion after returning to Oracle Arena, making 8 of 11 three-pointers.
Thanks to the excellent performance of his good base friends, James also played an amazing efficiency in this game. He made 12 of 18 shots, including free throws and three-pointers, and scored 34 points, 10 rebounds, and 9 times for the Warriors. assist.
However, after this night, Su Feng was even more certain that the Lakers would have a more than 90% chance of reaching the finals this year.
Because in this level of competition, using only 8 people to rotate not only means that the Warriors will lose the big move of "air conditioning tactics"...
And, with the deepening of the game, the Lakers with an 11-man rotation will definitely have the absolute upper hand in terms of physical fitness.
"Looks like it's our turn to turn off the air conditioners at Staples this year." After the G3 battle, Su Feng smiled while looking at Lu Gui.
Hearing this, Director Lu, who felt that what Su Feng said was very reasonable, immediately called Little Bass.
As the saying goes, use the way of the other to give back to the body.
Jeff, it's time for you and your warriors to experience the power of Air Conditioning Tactics too!
only......
Lu and Su Feng's ideas are good.
But their thinking is far behind the changes.
Because in the fourth game in Oakland, the Lakers succeeded in having the last laugh.
In this game, the Warriors, who can only win but cannot lose, were obviously disturbed by their mentality.
In the case of the team's poor feel, they should have adjusted their tactics in time. Instead of attacking the inside, they not only did not reduce the number of shots from the outside...
On the contrary, the iron is getting higher and higher.
TNT TV, Barkley even complained in the fourth quarter: "The Warriors gave the Lakers a victory for nothing!"
no way.
The authorities are fascinated by bystanders, and everyone understands this truth...
But when you're really in the game...
How many people can see it clearly?
In the G3 battle, because of the excellent performance of the perimeter players, the Warriors just pulled back a city.
So Van Gundy and the Warriors' players are unlikely to abandon the winning theory they have always believed in.
In the end, after beating the Warriors 118-102 on the road, the Lakers managed to rewrite the big score in this round of the Western Conference finals to 3-1.
Two match points in hand.
In order to avoid the "air conditioning tactic" of killing one thousand and one hundred and eight hundred from affecting the Lakers' championship journey, in the fifth game, after returning to Los Angeles, the Lakers did not choose to do it the same way.
And the Staples Center...
Under the expectation of nearly 20,000 lake honeys at the scene, Su Feng, who has never given the enemy a chance to breathe, also used his suicide attack to break the mentality of Van Gundy on the sidelines.
In the first quarter of the game, Su Feng, who scored 20 points for the Lakers in a single quarter, didn't make a single mid-to-long-range shot, all breakthroughs and free throws.
On the court, Xiao Yao only played 5 minutes before being replaced by Van Gundy because of two fouls.
In the second quarter of the game, James, who had learned the lessons of the previous game, succeeded in making Yong Mi in front of the TV see hope.
In this section, he scored 17 points for the Warriors even with a sudden penalty.
But with the start of the G3 game, James' playing time has been increased from the previous 40 minutes to 46 minutes or 48 minutes...
In the second half of the game, James obviously entered the "sage mode" after the outbreak.
At this time, Director Lu's advantage of strictly controlling Su Feng's playing time within 38 minutes was highlighted.
Because of the physical advantages accumulated earlier, Su Feng can quickly pass through the "sage mode" and quickly enter the moment when the gods rise again...
The third quarter of the game seemed to become Su Feng's "".
At the end of the quarter, the tenacious Warriors relied on the excellent performances of Xiao Yao and Curry, and once brought the difference between the two teams on the field to more than 5 points.
But "Hypocritical No. 2 in History" used two consecutive three-pointers to put out the Warriors' chasing momentum.
Compared with last year, this year's Western Conference finals, Kobe Bryant's decline can be described as very obvious.
But the stubborn Kobe...
But he can always play the role of the Lakers' savior at critical moments.
In the end, 114 to 122.
As the timer in the final quarter went to zero, the Staples Center also dropped a symbol that the Lakers won the Western Championship...
That colorful rain.
On the court, James, who felt that every game was only a fraction away from winning, walked back to the locker room with Curry with a dejected expression.
After the game, in an interview with Russian TV, Kirilenko officially announced that he will return to the Russian league this summer.
After fourteen years of fighting, Kirilenko will return to CSKA Moscow, to the place where his dream started, to continue his basketball dream.
As the greatest basketball player in Russian history, Kirilenko, who scored 10,115 points, 4,575 rebounds, 2,245 assists, 1,510 blocks, and 1,188 steals in his career, said in his final speech: " It's a shame I didn't get that precious ring before I left the NBA.
But life is like that.
Some people are satisfied, some people are not.
I am very fortunate that at the peak of my career, I was always called a man who dared to fight God.
And now, I'm going back to my home country and coming to the end of my basketball career at CSKA Moscow. "
After the Western Conference finals, in addition to Kirilenko, Nash, who once awarded the NBA assists king award to the "Nash Award", also officially issued his retirement declaration.
In this life, Nash, who has won the championship three times, still maintained an overall shooting percentage of 51.4%, a three-point shooting percentage of 43.2% and a free throw percentage of 91.4% when he retired in his career.
Although after the "" that year, Nash never got his hands on the NBA championship.
But when the Warriors started rebuilding, the "captain" who was unwilling to abandon the team helped the Warriors through their most difficult period.
Although Nash has never been the best scorer in the league, the 18,975 points he has left in his career statistics are enough to prove his scoring ability.
In addition, in this life, he has sent a total of 11,145 assists in his career, picked up 3,845 rebounds, completed 915 steals and 91 blocks, and he is also second only to Stockton and Kidd in the NBA historical assists list.
"I thought it was time for a not-so-perfect ending to my career.
It is true that I would love to continue helping the team through my efforts.
But now, I need more time to spend with my family and my daughter. "
Farewell to Kirilenko and Nash.
On this night when the Lakers successfully entered the finals, Su Feng was somewhat touched by the background of these two old friends.
And New York...
The new president, Mark, who is about to take office, once again feels what double standards are.
"In the finals, tell the referees that it's time to restart the 'Su Feng's Rules' when making a penalty." Stern said, patting Mark on the shoulder.
Hearing this, after being stunned for a while, Mark said: "But David, didn't you say before that we should maintain 'fairness, openness and justice' and refuse to use dirty means to interfere with the progress of the game? ?"
Staring at Mark, after smiling, Stern said, "Looks like, now you think you're the president, don't you?"
mark:"......"
In this round of the Western Conference finals in Hu Yong, of course, Stern must remain "fair, open, and just."
Because even if Su Feng is full of confidence in this year's Western Conference Finals, judging from the final game results, it is not easy for the Lakers to win.
Stern knows.
In this round of Hu Yong's series, if he manipulates too much, the script is likely to go wrong.
But then it's different.
Because before retiring, Stern really wants to watch the wonderful finals again~EbookFREE.me~, so he naturally has to take care of the obviously weaker side.
and......
Since I gave the Lakers before retiring, I prepared such a big gift for the Lower Merion Gemini...
"The gift that fate gives in secret has already marked its price in secret.
Su...
now......
My full stop, it's just one last show for you and Kobe. "
Today, looking out the window, Stern thought silently.
