After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 317 Regrouping and making a comeback

The next day was game day again, training in the morning, flying in the afternoon, and starting the game in Boston in the evening.

This game has received unprecedented attention in both China and the United States, and this series is also very interesting. The first game received the most attention, and the second and third games gradually declined.

In the fourth game, almost no one paid attention to it. They felt that the Magic's promotion was confirmed. Except for the Green Army who still held hope, or wanted to accompany the home team through the final journey, no one was willing to pay attention to this kind of game. There is no suspense in the game.

In the fifth game, I recovered a little bit, but I also felt that this is the home court of the Magic. They didn't play well in the last game. I guess some of them wanted to return to the home court to take the game away.

In fact, for most teams and players, unless they have absolute strength and are confident that they can win at any time—and even so, they may overturn. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, they are definitely willing to win as soon as possible If you can have a good rest, you can also study your opponents in the next round.

It's just that things won't go so smoothly. The opponents don't want it, and the league doesn't want the series to end so quickly.

But in fact, in the fifth game, it can be said that the Celtics played better, especially on the defensive end; and the Magic did not perform well. Except for Li Chengming and Howard, almost all of them were sleepwalking. state.

As a result, after winning this game, not only did the sixth game of the Eastern Conference Finals skyrocket in the attention of TV stations, but the ratings soared to the level of the first and second games from the very beginning.

Not because this could be the last home game of the season, but because there is renewed hope among fans that the team will be able to hold on to at least a tie-break.

Then even if the tiebreaker fails, there is no regret... Damn, if it really comes to the tiebreaker, I must hope to advance.

From 10 minutes before the start of the game, the North Shore Garden venue was almost full, and there was a lot of voices and a very warm atmosphere. It can be seen how enthusiastic the Green Kai fans are.

This is actually understandable. As an NBA giant, it has been sinking for too many years. The last glory can be traced back to the Bird Bird period of the "Black and White War".

The most recent championship was in 1986, 22 years ago!

God knows how eager they are for the home team to stand on top of the NBA and win the O'Brien Trophy again.

At present, their number of championships exceeds that of the Lakers, which is why they claim to be the "No. 20 giant" in the NBA. However, because the championships are all in the last century, [-] years of sinking, they have no confidence to compete with the outside world. .

This year is definitely their best chance. The team's performance has met the expectations of many people. Now they need to take this step. If they can reach the finals, they believe that Lukai will still have the last laugh.

This game will not only be broadcast live in many countries in the United States and Europe, but also will not be missed in China. We all look forward to seeing domestic players stand on the stage of the finals and perform well.

CCTV also resorted to a combination of directors Zhang and Sun and Dazhi to explain the game.

Before the game started, it was inevitable for the three of them to predict the progress of the game.

Unsurprisingly, all three of them expressed their optimism for the Magic, and the reasons were very consistent, basically all related to Li Chengming.

Director Zhang said with a smile: "The Magic are still leading now, and in the fourth quarter of the last game, they recovered a bit. If they can continue to maintain that state in this game, I think it will be difficult for Lukay."

Sun Zheng commented: "Actually, as long as the rest of the Magic can perform well, and Li Chengming's performance in this game is normal, I still think they have a better chance of winning. Before the start of the series, everyone felt that Lu Kai was stronger than them. The regular season is not a concept.

"And the Magic can lead 3:0. There is nothing to say about their strength. Their mentality changes and state ups and downs caused them to get lost temporarily, but as long as they adjust back in time, they are still the stronger team."

Dazhi also said: "I think there is still a problem with the Green Kai, which is their physical strength. Because the Green Army has more veterans, such as Garnett, the previous game is always 40 minutes, and it is also because he can't do it. In the end, only he can hold the inside line, otherwise he will be easily defeated.

"It may not be obvious in one or two games, but with so many games and a relatively short break in between, it is difficult for him to maintain his state. In fact, I think Garnett's physical strength is a hidden danger in the last game. If it is not Pierce stepped forward, it’s hard to say what the result will be..."

Of course, this can also be said in reverse, maybe who will stand up in this green game.

But correspondingly, the Magic has been in a downturn for two games, and it's time for someone else to stand up.

Before this game, there was another surprising point, that is, Van Gundy once again took Li Chengming as the starter, and actually changed at this time.

Some people think this is the magic team's secret weapon, or they just want to establish a lead from the beginning, so as not to have to keep chasing points like they were on the court, and then chasing themselves will collapse from time to time, and they can't keep going. Continuation state.

If you can lead the start, you can also put pressure on the opponent again.

Some people think that the Magic has nothing to do and can only do this.

Because past facts have proved that the Magic put Li Chengming on the bench, which is definitely a way to win the game to maximize the rotation advantage.

Commentators from various countries have also commented on this. TNT's Barkley, Kenny Smith and others are unanimously optimistic that the Green Cay will win this game, thinking that the temporary adjustment of the Magic will affect the performance of the players.

Not to mention the fans at home in Boston, their best wishes were to send the highest boos to Li Chengming.

This is also a manifestation of his fear. After all, if the first three games are still to be discussed, then since the Magic team fell into a disadvantage, Li Chengming is definitely the best and most stable one, and it is also a defensive challenge for Lukai. The biggest, most threatening one.

With the end of Howard and Garnett's jump ball, the key battle between the two teams officially kicked off.

However, the progress of this game was surprising, because the Magic team took a 34:18, 16-point lead in the first quarter and defeated the Celtics almost directly in one quarter.

During the intermission of the first quarter, including the commentary, people who watched the game live or watched the game through various channels were stunned.

Why do you still want a tiebreaker?

Is this the true level of strength of the Green Army and the Magic?
How did the Magic win two games in a row by the Celtics in the first two games?
Or is it related to the Magic team's change today?
Li Chengming played only 7 minutes in the first quarter. He made 8 of 5 shots and 3 of 2 free throws to score 13 points. He did a good job, but Turkoglu's 9 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists were the most eye-catching for the Magic. One quarter seems to book the triple-double data of this game.

And Howard's 6 points, 7 rebounds and 3 blocks are also amazing. Lewis also hit two three-pointers. Nelson missed a shot but also sent 4 assists. If there are two people.

Or it should be said that it was really like a continuation of the state in the second half of the fourth quarter of the last game, and today's first quarter was full of firepower, which was much fiercer than that time.

Of course, corresponding to this, there is also a sluggish performance on Lukai's side.

Hitting the iron, making mistakes, as if they were the ones who were affected by the mentality and were about to give up the game.
