Chapter 437 Breaking the Curse

"Tonight is G7 night and our last night of the season for the Los Angeles Lakers! Won! We are the 71-72 NBA champions! So, ladies and gentlemen, please join us for the lads of the Lakers Let’s cheer! Tonight, let’s turn the Great Western Forum into a sea of ​​joy!!!” The Lakers’ on-site commentator Chick Hearn explained loudly, because he also has deep feelings for the Lakers After all, it has been 7 years since I became a "full-time" live commentator in Los Angeles.If you count the fragmentary "part-time" time, this length has been as long as 11 years.How many 11 years can life have?Such a long period of time is enough for Chick Hearn to gradually develop "purple-golden" blood in his body.

In the past 11 years, he has explained too many games that the Lakers lost in the finals, so tonight, at this moment, he is also eager to win and win in his heart!No worse than the warm-up players on the field!

Under the mobilization of Chick Hearn, the atmosphere in the Great Western Forum Arena was high, and soon began to be full of voices.

Looking at all this, Tang Qian also thought in his heart:
Whether you succeed or not, this will be your last night in the 70s. If you win, you will go home with the trophy. If you lose, you will become an eternal prisoner, and you will never be able to leave this place.But even so, God didn't favor him too much. Tonight's "Demon" directly cut off 30% of his competitive status. You know, 30% is already the maximum that "Demon" can affect up.After seeing this situation, Tang Qian was very upset, but the matter has come to this point, and he has no way to change the incident, so he can only forcefully accept it.The New Yorkers seem to have a relaxed atmosphere, because they saw the flaws of the Lakers in the last game, coupled with the influence of "historical factors", so they are generally more relaxed than the Lakers. Not a lot.

Fortunately, Tang Qian said that before the start of the game. Otherwise, if he really wants to play this game as the last game, then he must be "out of balance" and mess himself up before the game starts.Mentality is definitely an undeniable thing in any round of G7 series.If one party has the mentality advantage, then 90% of the other party will be unlucky.

"Hey, Chamberlain, are you ready to accept defeat?" Jerry Lucas stood near the middle circle and said to "Tang Qian". Judging by his appearance, he has stepped out of the "shadow" of the previous games "Are. "Tang Qian" looked at him, and said with a smile: "Lucas, it seems that you are recovering well, and you have the strength to act again? Isn't the lesson from last time not profound enough?" "Reminding what happened that day again, Jerry Lukas suddenly became a little gloomy and said: "Chamberlain, don't be complacent. It's just that we weren't familiar with your 'new tactics' that day. You thought your 'shooting Can dog shit luck last to this one?"

"Hey, Lucas, I admit that I was lucky that day~ But if you win, you win. Who calls you unlucky? If you are not convinced, then we can have another game tonight Ah~" Hearing that "Tang Qian" was so arrogant, Jerry Lucas said with fire in his eyes: "Come on, I don't believe you can still be possessed by 'dog shit luck' tonight?"

"No, no, we're not going to shoot basketball tonight." "Tang Qian" smiled and shook his head when he heard this. "Isn't it better than shooting? Then what do you want to compare?" Jerry Lucas was taken aback. "As a center forward, I naturally compete with you for rebounding. How about it, do you dare?" Hearing this, Jerry Lucas reacted instantly, because although he is also very strong in rebounding, he is now He is still old and has long since lost his peak level.In this case, how can you compare with your opponent?Who doesn't know Wilt Chamberlain's rebounding skills?The No. 13 strongman in history, even Boston's Bill Russell, can't hold him down. He will be knocked to the ground by No. [-] of the Lakers. If he confronts him head-on, isn't that pure courting of death?

And just when Jerry Lucas was about to refuse, the words of No. 13 of the Lakers once again made him "lose his mind" and said: "Don't worry, I still take care of the weak, and I will let you get 20 rebounds." How about the ball?" A few seconds later, the opposite side "exploded"!I've seen people who say big things, but it's the first time they dare to say so!Do you think me, Jerry Lucas, is a weak rebounder?Labor and capital used to be members of the 20+20 club per game, okay?How dare you look down on me so much?asshole!Today I have to let you know how powerful you are, just eat and eat!
Jerry Lucas's anger is justified, because he averaged "double 20+" per game. Even Bill Russell, who is known as "Lord of the Rings", has never achieved this kind of perverted data, so in On rebounding, he has his own unique sense of self-esteem.I'm not as good as Chamberlain and Russell, but I'm only second to them. In the inside line of the league, labor and capital should be ranked fourth. Who would dare to claim third? ? ?Therefore, being so "damaged" and "belittled" by No. 13 of the Lakers made Jerry Lucas immediately angry. He looked at "Tang Qian" and said loudly: "Chamberlain, if you can play on the rebound tonight If there are more than 20 of me, then I will call you dad directly!"

"Really? Are you sure you want to play so big?" "Tang Qian" asked with a slight upturn of his mouth upon hearing this.

"What nonsense!" Jerry Lucas said the more he looked at the No. 13 of the Lakers, the more he hated it: "But if you lose, just admit it publicly, I, Jerry Lucas, am the 'beast killer'! Neither you nor Russell are my direct opponents! How about it! Do you dare to agree?" I thought the other party would at least hesitate a little bit, and Chamberlain's "indecision" at critical moments is well-known in the league, especially This person also has a very special "good face", taking away his "face", I'm afraid it's no better than beating him up.

But tonight, the reaction of No. 13 of the Lakers team was beyond Lucas' expectations again, because this big man with a steel tower over 7 feet agreed with all his heart: "Okay, no matter how you look at it, it's a big deal for me. Isn't it a good deal?" It's not that Tang Qian doesn't know what's going on in the other party's mind, but he's too lazy to care about it now. New York team 32 likes to use this method to obtain self-satisfaction and social satisfaction, and Tang Qian follows him. up.

"You promised very quickly, but you are doomed to fail before you start!" Jerry Lucas said with a sharp smile, because he didn't believe the opponent's rebound from the bottom of his heart Count, you can surpass him by more than 20 in a single game.

Ridiculous, even if I only grabbed 13~14 rebounds tonight, it would take 33~34 rebounds to meet the "gambling conditions". It's a complete nonsense thing.The decline in competitive status is something that no one can avoid. Both he and himself have passed the threshold of 30 years old, and the latter has reached the watershed of 35 years old. ", Crazy about 35 rebounds.Besides, even if the Lakers really broke out on the 13th tonight, and got this data, I wouldn't let it succeed!

because……

I'm going to hit 20 rebounds tonight too!Let's see how you still mess with me at that time!and me!
Wilt Chamberlain, you are too arrogant!Find yourself dead! ! !Can't blame me! ! !
Seeing the fighting spirit in the opponent's eyes, Tang Qian just smiled and didn't care too much, because it was impossible for him to lose this "gamble".So his real purpose is to weaken the New York Knicks and to let the Los Angeles Lakers win in the end!
So what if my competitive state drops?So what if my personal ability is not as good as "Dashuai Zhang"?
As long as you can win!Even if I'm unscrupulous tonight, it doesn't matter!

Disintegrate step by step!

It is a "competition process" set by Tang Qian for the opponent. If it can be realized smoothly, then Los Angeles is a bit far from the first championship trophy.

Everything depends on the game!

In the opening scrimmage, "Tang Qian" actually lost to Jerry Lucas. It seems that this former superstar figure has been successfully stirred up by himself.After seeing this scene, the Lakers players all felt "bad", and looked at No. 13, becoming suspicious and shaken.

Didn't you say you want to rule the basket?

Didn't you say you want to control the rebound?
Didn't you say you were going to score 50 rebounds in this game?

how?Didn't succeed in the first scrimmage?

Seemingly sensing the fluctuations in the mentality of the Lakers, "Tang Qian" activated the ability card with a golden appearance in the "Different Space" without hesitation.With the gold ability card activated, you can get 55 rebounds in a single game, and the data of rebounds before and after do not overlap.

Due to "psychological pressure", the Lakers played very tensely at the beginning of the game. Even Jerry West, No. 44, who has entered the finals stage countless times, was stiff when he came out. Relax.There is no way around it. In fact, Jerry West's situation is different from that of ordinary players. At his level, the so-called "finals experience" is not only useless, but has become a "burden and burden". , as if an invisible palm was pinching his throat tightly all the time.

The more "finals floor times", the more uncomfortable Jerry West is now, and the more he can't let go.

Because in his heart, he was very afraid that this trip to the finals would become the eighth "general runner-up", so he might collapse on the spot and announce his retirement directly after the game.It is precisely because of this that his playoff status will become more and more sluggish as the season progresses, without any signs of improvement.

So at this moment, it is already unrealistic to rely on him to break the deadlock.

What about the Knicks?Due to Walter Fraser's outstanding performance in the last game, their team morale is now on the rise, and they are playing in an orderly manner as a whole.4 minutes before the opening, the Lakers were poured 16-2 by their opponents, and the most depressing thing for Tang Qian is that you haven't had a single rebound since you played so far!The opponent shoots 100%, what about the Lakers? He was blocked 2 times, robbed 3 times, and once because of too much shooting strength, the basketball crashed and flew directly behind the backboard after hitting the basket, which became a foul ball.So until Bill Salman called a timeout, Tang Qian's current rebounding data was still "zero light"!
"Don't be nervous, don't be impatient, take your time, play slowly, push fast defense and counterattack if you have a chance, and play high pick-and-roll tactics if you don't have a chance! This is G7, and the test is your psychology, but your skills are secondary! So everyone must be calm! Must be calm!" Bill Sharman also fought hard in this game. He set up a tactical ball in the first timeout. You must know that usually, tactical balls are only used in the stalemate stage of the game later. Use, and the sooner you use it, the less you will have in stock and the less effective it will be.

Because setting tactics is different from conventional tactics, the former is ten times more pertinent and professional than the latter. This is the moment to really test a player's psychological and tactical qualities.The overall execution ability of the Lakers, in fact, looking at the NBA in the early 70s, it is definitely considered strong, but in this period of time, no one can play a normal strength and level, so Bill Sharman carefully arranged This tactical ball of his had ended in a hasty shot, hitting the basket and hitting the iron, and it didn't have a dime effect.

This is the "sorrow" of being a head coach of a team, because no matter how good or subtle your tactics are, if the players on the field cannot implement and implement them well, it is equivalent to "a piece of nonsense" and there is no point at all. significance.On the contrary, the opponent's team, the New York Knicks, became more courageous as they fought. When there were only 3 and a half minutes left in the first quarter, the Lakers still had a poor 2-pointer. On the other side, the score had soared to 26 points.

24-2, a score difference of 22 points, impressively formed.

This made the Los Angeles Lakers, who were already "nervous" and "unstable", suddenly fell into a panic, and some people even threw "air balls" from open spots several times.Seeing this situation, Knicks coach Reed Holzman smiled, because he already felt the taste of the second championship trophy in his life.

Lakers, Lakers, you really are "tie-breakers"!

In this case, we New Yorkers will take away the championship, and you continue to be your own "general runners-up"!

Damn, how can we go on like this?Isn't this a lost game?
Tang Qian looked up at the scorer, feeling very anxious. In this critical moment, he made an almost "dangerous decision" to come out!
As soon as he raised his hand, No. 13 of the Lakers actually called a timeout.

The active player is timed out.

PS: I’m going home tomorrow, so tomorrow will explode~explode~explode~~~Important things, say it three times, say it three times~
