Chapter 1111 Transformers won

Official timeout, Clippers bench area.

"That Easterner is really decisive. I didn't expect him to come up with this trick to fight. It's really..." Rivers communicated with the team's brain Chris Paul off the court. After all, as the head coach, he also thought that the It's the absolute goal of the Lakers.But now, Shengsheng was broken by the other party, which was something that he had never thought of before. "We underestimated him." Paul replied while drinking a sports drink: "Although I hate his trash talk on the field, I admire him for this. Coach, let me ask you, now the league is in charge. Stars, how many people would do this?"

You hate other people's trash talk, and they probably hate your trash talk too. I know your mouth too, it's also "not good".

Secretly slandered, Rivers continued: "Let's not talk about being a star, ordinary stars and even the main players are rarely willing to do this. "Hero" is an excuse to attack." Now "Keyboard Man", an "imported word" from the other side of the ocean, is now widely used in the NBA, because not to mention the players, many head coaches and uniforms are also for those who only know how to play. The so-called expert reporters who "talked about it" and "pointed out the country" in their seats were angry.So Paul also sounded normal: "Such a person is really rare in the commercial league of the NBA, but coach, don't worry, we have another magic weapon to win. With it, our Clippers can't lose."

"Oh? There is such a thing? Let's hear it?" Rivers was also taken aback, and opened his mouth to ask.

Paul just showed his bright white teeth, and asked Rivers to check the game time. The latter paused, and then seemed to understand something, and immediately smiled again: "Oh, yes, why didn't I Thinking of this? Chris, you really deserve to be the strongest No. 1 in the league right now, and your observation and analysis skills are always so calm." Rivers said: "Yes, if this is the case, the current temporary disadvantage is not enough. Too much worry, anyway, when the time comes, the balance of the situation will be reversed."

"Yes, coach, we can just wait, the Lakers can't win." Paul said with the light reflecting on the Western Conference finals floor in his eyes.

For the Lakers, the conversation between D'Antoni and Tang Qian took up the majority.

He really didn't expect that the No. 29 Lakers would make such a change in order to curb the Clippers' targeting, which he didn't even think of for a while.It seems that he is really not an ordinary player. If you give him the right lineup and the right opportunity for this kind of player, he is likely to soar into the sky.

"Hot, how do you feel? Do you want to come down and rest later, and save some energy for the fourth quarter?"

"No, the team can't do without me now." Tang Qian wasn't talking big because it was a fact that the Lakers left him, and it might collapse every minute for you to see.It is Tang Qian's change and sacrifice to be able to play until now. He has played a huge role on the defensive end. Otherwise, the Lakers will now have to consider fishing in the summer vacation.

"That's right, but your physical fitness is also a problem. What if the fourth quarter is not enough? Or find an opportunity to come down for a while and replenish your physical fitness."

"No, sir, I can. I want to win."

The official timeout is over, and he is back on the court. Because of Tang Qian's changes, the Clippers have effectively curbed their unfavorable defensive and aggressive style of play in the first two games. In this way, the Lakers' advantages can also be slowly revealed in the normal rhythm of play. .They have an excellent individual defense system. Even if Bosh is resting now, Robert Covington is there. As a defensive point, his role is even stronger than Bosh.Until the end of the third quarter, both sides were caught in a black-and-white battle. The shooting percentage was very low, and it was a bit difficult to open the situation.

The Lakers entered the final quarter with a 4-point advantage.

At this quarter, Paul saw that Tang Qian had no intention of leaving the game at all, and immediately showed a sneer on his face, because in his view, this was everything that was getting closer to his prediction, and the Lakers were waiting to be turned around. in front of you.The Clippers don't need to be too anxious.The shooting percentage in this quarter is also not high. Jeremy Lin basically relies on Tang Qian's pick-and-roll to get rid of Paul smoothly every time. Therefore, the Lakers' system can only be said to be moving and no longer stagnant, but it can't be said much. good.

And in a part of Los Angeles, there is a huge real picture of a black mamba viper hanging on the wall of the president's office (this is true, Xiaozi has already verified that there is a picture), and the person sitting on the seat is the Lakers Famous person, Kobe Bryant.He is watching the game broadcast on TV at the moment, but the thoughts in his mind are completely different from Paul's. He even gradually showed a hint of approval and said: "This little guy is really not simple. This kind of mind may be better than his talent." It's even more important."

"The combination of the two can allow him to achieve higher achievements in the future. It's a pity that I can't fight anymore."

"Forget it, if I can still play, something will happen, and this may be the best result." Kobe said to himself a few times and looked up at the TV screen again: "Chris, I'm afraid you didn't think Well, your calculation probably became part of Dongfang Tang's plan tonight."

"I really want to see, you, who have always been known for being flexible and calm, find out what kind of expression you have when you are tricked by others." Kobe's face rarely showed some smirks: "You should go to the Staples Center tonight Watching football, next time you have nothing to do, you should go and watch it on TV, I always feel that something is missing.”

Los Angeles, Staples Center.

The game continued, and with only 8 minutes, 6 minutes, 4 minutes and 3 minutes left in the game, Chris Paul finally felt something was wrong.Because, in this game, the Lakers' No. 29 playing time has not been short, but there is no such thing as the physical exhaustion he expected, the offensive and defensive decline.On the contrary, he has always maintained his defensive strength, making several of his wonderful passes inside come to naught.Could it be that his physical condition is particularly good tonight?Paul felt puzzled, but he quickly denied it himself. After all, he clearly felt that the other party did not show any signs of breaking out tonight.So... what's going on?

Did you sleep too well last night? shi.t~ What a rotten excuse!It should be barely supporting, wait another minute and see!

However, at 2 minutes, the situation of the previous two games on the 29th was still missing, which made Nima embarrassing.

Paul was also a little confused all of a sudden, which made him make his second mistake tonight. Jeremy Lin finally cut off his pass and played a fast break. Although Paul hindered him from making progress, he also got 2 free throws line of opportunity.

Jeremy Lin made 2 of 1 free throws, but it doesn't matter, judging by the point difference of the game, the Lakers should win. The advantage of 7 points, unless the opponent hits a wave, otherwise, it is difficult to collapse.The defensive momentum of the Lakers in this period is definitely good.

At the end of the game, the Lakers defeated their opponents 95-90 with 5 points. Because the shooting percentages of both sides were not high, the scores were far from the average of the two teams.But it doesn't matter, as long as you win, that's what Tang Qian wants.In the end, Bosh scored the highest score of 27 points in the game, Nick Young scored the second most points with 17 points, Butler also scored 10 points, and none of the others scored in double figures. Jeremy Lin's game was slightly better than the previous two The field is stronger, but it does not fulfill the team responsibilities that D'Antoni needs him to shoulder.What about Tang Qian?He only scored 5 points in this game, that is to say, since that goal, he has not scored too many points. He scored 16 rebounds, but the offensive rebounds were few and basically invisible. He did a good job in the game, covering exactly 10 times, so in this game, he still has a double-double.It's just a little different.

5 points, 16 rebounds, 10 blocks, 3 assists and 1 steal. This is Tang Qian's final data. Except for the ugly score, the rest is actually pretty good, especially the block data. 4 times, I don't know how many levels are higher.It was also because of his block at the basket that the Lakers won the game.At least the contribution is no less than Bosh's 2 points.

Paul scored 17 points, 9 assists, 5 steals and 3 rebounds in this game, but this is not very good for his playoff status this year.And because of his misjudgment of the game situation, the Clippers lost the home game.

After the game, Paul and Tang Qian shook hands and said unconvinced: "You are lucky, hot."

"It's your bad luck, Paul."

"Don't worry, this kind of luck can't help you win the whole series. Hot, you understand."

"I understand, but your bad luck should allow us to win."

"Okay, I have nothing to say if you won tonight, see you at Staples in 2 days."

"Okay~ I'm waiting for you."

After the game, some "advanced keyboard warriors" came to trouble Tang Qian, and they asked:

"Tang, you only scored 5 points tonight. Are you completely defended by DeAndre? Who do you think is the number one center in the league between you and him?"

"Of course it's me. This year's one-off and one-defense are all me, and the most important thing is that we are the winners tonight, not them."

"But isn't this the credit of Chris Bosh?" The Sports Illustrated reporter challenged.

Bosh was about to say something, but he was stopped by Tang Qian, who stared at the Sports Illustrated reporter and said, "Winning is naturally due to Chris, it's no problem, but you said I have no credit for my 16 rebounds, 10 blocks, 3 assists and 1 steal. Did you eat it? Or do you think I am not the best player tonight?"

"Tan, you didn't score one game this round, what's the reason?"

"Tan, are you in a slump in scoring? Or is your method only effective in the regular season?"

This is the power of these old-fashioned reporters. Anyway, if you get angry, I will find other parties to continue to beat around the bush, making you upset and annoying.Moreover, we will write an article to bury you after we go back, making you angry, but there is nothing we can do.

Why do so many stars prefer to lose with good statistics rather than change themselves so that the team can win?The reason is here.First of all, if you don't say that you will definitely win if you change, but your data decline is affirmative, so when you face these criticizing media after the game, you will not be so convincing.It's like asking for trouble.

And, obviously, compared to on the field, this kind of external pressure after the game and the saliva off the field are the main culprits that affect your mentality.

Tang Qian remembered what Kobe said to him in the video room before leaving that day, namely:
Hot, maybe off-court will influence people more than on-court, you have to be prepared, if you don't have a strong heart, you can't bear all this without making changes.

Now Tang Qian can feel it, but he understands a little bit more. If he loses, he will be criticized by these people even more. The data can't bring victory to the team", "Dongfang Tang is a cancer, in his eyes, the data is greater than the team's interests", "He is a selfish player and not a qualified team leader at all" and so on.If you fight with them and don't give them face, they will do this, using public opinion and saliva to force you to squeeze you until you can't stand it anymore and admit your mistake with them.

It seems that it is really not that simple to play well in the NBA.

However, this does not affect me, I am very clear about my own goals.

Just win!Do whatever you can to win!If you can win, never lose! ! !
Sure enough, the next day's ESPN gave the headlines: Bosh led the Lakers to victory with 27 points, and the Eastern Hot 5 points were extremely sluggish.

At the same time, there is also a short article echoed by the famous "Tang Hei" ESPN expert and professor Brian Windhorse: The playoffs are the stage to test the quality of the players. It is obvious that the key core of the Lakers in the playoffs is Chris Bo. Not even Oriental hot.

This article is a typical argument, and it is also ESPN's favorite "black" method. This article was immediately refuted by the famous "Tang Mi" TNT reporter Kate Marin: Bosh performed very well, but the ball The core of the team is still Dongfang Hot.

This article argues against Brian Windhorse's article. He believes that Tang Qian made this sacrifice for the team's victory, not because Tang Qian really can't score.Those articles and people who completely ignore Tang Qian's defensive contribution are all eyeless sunspots.

Of course, this remark aroused the anger of the great expert Brian Windhorse, who is far more experienced in this field than Kate Marin, and he immediately posted his personal Twitter: No matter what you say, Dongfang Hot faced the small Jordan played badly in this round of the series, badly, he is not worthy of the honor of the league's number one center. Have you ever seen a number one center with only 5 points in a single game?
Kate Marin was not in vain, and immediately said on his personal Twitter: Jordan got 16 rebounds in this game?Got 10 blocks?Got 3 assists?are you kidding meIf this data is given to Jordan, you will probably blow the sky.Do double standards make sense?Besides, you probably forgot, James also scored 7 points and 8 points in a single game, Duncan also scored 4 points, O'Neal also scored 0 points, why don't you say it?
Now Tang Qian's reputation is much greater than before, so the big debate that can be aroused is much stronger than before. Just when the two sides are fighting each other, and no one will give in to the other, the semifinals in the Eastern Conference have also entered the halfway point.Among them, the Eagles and the Wizards drew 2-2. This is also an unexpected series.The other game in the Eastern Conference semifinals is 2-2 so far. Rose won Game 4 at the Bulls United Center. James played very badly in this game. Although the rest of the statistics are good, but you Looking at the shooting percentage, it is very eye-catching. It only made 25 of 8 shots, and the shooting percentage was 32%. The three-pointers were 7 of 1 shots, and the shooting percentage was 14.3% under the high-intensity pressure of the Bulls. But you just look at the data. Woolen cloth?It was still perfect, with 28 points, 8 rebounds and 14 assists. ESPN promoted this game as the most frequently appeared online slogan in the future, that is, the Cavaliers lost, but James did not lose.And this, just looking at it, makes people want to vomit.What does it mean that the Cavaliers lost and James did not lose?Isn't James from the Cavaliers?
Kate Marin also deliberately mocked this matter on Twitter: I will show you another set of statistics for James in this game, 32%, 14.3%, 7 personal mistakes, wow~ Are you surprised~
In the West, the Grizzlies also pulled back a game at home, 99-89, and killed the Warriors.But in this game, the Warriors themselves lost more because their three-point shooting percentage was only 2%, and their free throws were only more than 6%. If the hit rate comes out, it means that you have screwed up.

But Cole expressed optimism, because he felt that it was not the Grizzlies that defended the Warriors, but the Warriors themselves that defended themselves.

Well, it's still very Cole, and Tang Qian didn't feel that they would not be able to kill the Grizzlies.

On May 5th, US time, the Western Conference semifinals continued. The Lakers challenged the Clippers away. If they can win this game, they can build a huge psychological advantage and return home with a big score of 10-3. Uh, Although this round of the series is similar to not going back, there is not much difference, but the home game is the home game after all, and there are always more home calls than away games.

The Lakers hope to win this game and return to the home court to solve their opponents with a big score of 4-1. What about the Clippers?It is hoped that the big score will be equalized at home, and the 2-2 sides will return to the starting line.

The game will be broadcast live across the United States by ESPN Channel [-].

In an interview before the game, Tang Qian said directly: There will be no Tianwang Mountain in this round of the series.

We will win this game.

PS: Take a day off tonight, and continue to explode tomorrow~~~~
