Chapter 1998: Hit hard

It's late at night, here is Los Angeles at four in the morning, the night is still covering the earth, the streets and alleys are enveloped in darkness, only occasionally, I can hear the swearing of drunks from nowhere, and there are also wild cats and wild dogs during the period. Scream.
This is Los Angeles, the second largest city in the United States, with charming city lights, bustling shopping streets, and bustling crowds of vehicles. The modern atmosphere and aura of entertainment are everywhere, but the SkidRow in Los Angeles is like being "circled" by angels. , The glory of the city is not there.
Los Angeles SkidRow mainly refers to the area east of Main Street in Los Angeles, south of Third Street, west of Alameda Street, and north of Seventh Street.
It’s hard to believe that this place is located in the center of Los Angeles. Just a few streets away is the most prosperous area in Los Angeles. The feasting and junk coexisting everywhere has become a unique landscape of downtown Los Angeles. This is a gathering area for homeless people. The neighborhood with the highest crime rate in the United States.
Although the city is big, not everyone can find their way home here.
Of course, even if you are in the most prosperous area and surrounded by prosperous sports honors, your return journey may not be clear.
A few blocks away from the slum is Staples, which is one of the most prosperous areas in Los Angeles today, and these days are also the beginning of the nation’s spotlight. Just a few hours ago, the finals of G1 just ended here. , The Los Angelesers once again reaped the victory, and they are only three wins away from their five-year super dynasty.
At four o'clock in the morning, there will still be celebratory crowds wandering the streets and reluctant to leave. They are still immersed in the joy of victory, by the way, they practice the four o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles.
The Lakers have already left the arena with a happy mood and went home to sleep. Ji Feng hasn't forgotten to have a post-match date with Hot Bar. This is also a reserved item. As long as Hot Bar is watching the game on the spot, Season Peak will be there after the game. Take the hot bar to various restaurants and go on dates, and enjoy the hot bar, which makes her feel like a young couple secretly dating after school.
As for post-match extra training, this season is not too much. After all, this season's schedule is too intensive, rest is the most important thing. Even if extra training, it won't work until four o'clock in the morning.
But at this moment, in an arena near the most luxurious hotel in Staples, there are still some people practicing free throws on the court, and Los Angeles at four in the morning adds another story.
The protagonist is naturally Lao Zhan, who has lost the ball and can't sleep. He practiced free throws one after another. The dozens of basketballs on the floor not only proved that it is good to have money, but also proved that he had practiced for a while.
Lao Zhan is bitter, after a busy season, he once again lost the finals miserably, which made it difficult for him to sleep. He got up after an hour of sleep in the hotel, although he is not a homeless man next door who has no food and clothes, but this The mood may be the same, it's a sense of disappointment that can't be achieved, so he chose to come here directly and start venting his excess energy.
After a group of free throws ended, Lao Zhan sat on the sidelines, killed a bottle of Gatorade in one breath, and then squeezed the bottle into an S shape.
"No! I have to win! No matter what way!" James viciously stood up and strode back to the hotel. One day, it was time for a wave of things.
Early in the morning of the next day, James came to the Spoel Hotel room to complete the secret meeting. After that, several villains of the Heat received instructions from Spoel:
In the next game, use big moves!
It is very tactful, but the meaning is very clear. It is about to play black hands. The Heat can't wait. They want to box, oh no, it is a hand-to-hand fight, and bring it on the basketball court!
"Remember, we have to test the referee's bottom line, and at the same time, we must strengthen our defensive efforts to hold the Lakers tightly. The referee blows and blows. Don't stop if you don't blow, just do it!" Spoel said.
James nodded with satisfaction from the side. Fierceness has always been synonymous with the Heat. Last year, the Bulls protested to the league more than once against the Heat’s excessive defensive actions. This season, the Heat is still the team with the most fouls. Several Titans are also famous bench gangsters, James' most dog-legged bodyguard, only due to the finals, the Heat have been restrained, but now, in order to win, they can't care about so much!
Even if James didn't say it, Riley and Spoel also planned to do this. After all, the second game is very important in their tactics. They very much hope to win, but James took the initiative to mention it, and they also took advantage of the trend.
This wave, this wave is that James is anxious.
I can’t help but worry. He is 28 this year when he is 18 years old in 2003. At his age, Kobe already has a triple crown in his hand, and Ji Feng has achieved a fourth crown. Compared with Jordan, he is also the first to start at this age. In the heyday of the three consecutive championships, as the little emperor, how could he not be anxious? If he is not anxious, he does not have to run the Heat to endure infamy. Isn't it just for the championship?
After all, even if the bragging is fierce, there is no use without the corresponding honor. James can't wait long ago. You must know that in Cleveland, although the city is small, he is the emperor there. In 2007, fans have already recognized him very much. , Once you encounter a perfect deal, take off directly. If you can win a championship, it will definitely be more shocking than holding a group of two. After all, Cleveland does not have a championship in the city. A wave of direct conjuration is because he is anxious. He hurriedly played brother basketball, but if he couldn't win the championship, he would definitely become a laughingstock.
So James did it!
Riley was very satisfied. James finally learned how to play basketball. He just needs to be tougher. People don't stand up and down.
So this time Riley also made special arrangements to try to win this crucial second game!
...
On June 15, the finals G2 was staged as scheduled, Staples was still crowded, and fans from all walks of life gathered here.
The starters of both sides also appeared early. The Lakers made changes. Season Peak, Kobe Bryant partnered in the backcourt, and Barnes took the start. It can be seen that the Zen Master continued to make changes to James, and Barnes started for the first time in the season.
On the Heat’s side, Spoor frowned and felt that it was not right, but the arrow had to be sent. The Heat still maintained the starting lineup of the last game. However, after the opening two sides reached 6-6, Spoel called a timeout, Shane and Noel. Riscoll appeared at the same time!
"Oh, the Heat changed players so early? It's really rare. Is this the special arrangement found on the offseason? It's the first time Kerr played so fast. Wade only played 2 minutes." Director Zhang said no. Understand, even if Shane takes a regular rotation, Haslem is really not good at being a fake starter. What can the rookie Norris Cole do at this time?
