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

Chapter 320

Speaking of which, Amy's original plan was that if they reached the tiebreaker, she would wait to watch their last game at home, and even booked the tickets.

However, the six games in the series were settled directly, and it was difficult for her to find time on her side. It was impossible to come here to meet him, so she had to wait until the first game of the finals to reunite.

So Li Chengming can only share with her the joy of being promoted on the phone. The two of them talked on the phone until more than one o'clock in the evening, and then went to bed after saying good night to each other.

Early the next morning, Li Chengming didn't need to look to know that today must be all about yesterday's game.

After a night of fermentation, the influence of this game has slowly spread.

There have been no major events in the United States recently. This time the Eastern Conference finals are much more interesting than those next door, especially after being chased to 3:0 after 2:3, it has earned enough attention before the game.

Although this result will inevitably disappoint many people, after all, most neutrals still prefer to see evenly matched games rather than one-sided games.

But there are also many people who start to look for angles to comment and analyze this game.

Although it is mostly an afterthought, if there is traffic and the audience loves to watch it, someone will naturally do it.

Even those who have been slapped in the face stand up at this time and have a hard mouth, which is quite interesting.

"Is Lukai's season disappointing?"

This question was first raised by TNT's program. Not only did Buckley, Smith and others launch a heated debate on the program, but it also aroused a lot of heated discussions on the Internet.

The answers are naturally varied, but there is no doubt that when it comes to the expectations before the game, the result of Lukai stopping in the Eastern Conference Finals must be a result that many people did not expect and will inevitably be disappointed.

Even if they don't win the championship, at least they will make it to the finals, even if they don't win the finals, they will still reach the tiebreaker.

But if you think again that they fell to the hands of the Magic, the 66-win team and the number one team in the league, and they struggled for a while, and they were not helpless, it seemed to suddenly understand.

"Before the start of the playoffs, everyone was saying that the Magic might be a regular-season team. Maybe it was blacked out in the first round, just like the Mavericks before. After the sweep in the first round, they began to say yes The Eagles are too weak, anyone can beat them.

"After playing against the Cavaliers, KING became isolated and helpless. As everyone knows, although his performance in these five games was not the worst in the team, as a boss, only one or two games can be called qualified. Not to mention leading the team to victory in other games, even the statistics were not clear.

"Anyway, it was also last year's Eastern Conference champion and finals-level team. After some adjustments, the strength will not be too bad all at once. Couldn't it be that the Magic team is really too strong?

"Of course, at this time, some people said that Lukai was coming for revenge. Until the Magic 3:0, they were pulled for two games in a row, and then they started to say that they would comeback, and they were severely slapped in the face.

"I understand now that the Magic is undoubtedly the strongest team this season. May I ask the Lakers on the opposite side, will they be able to beat the Green Kai? Not necessarily...

"Of course, the Lakers have Kobe, which should be the type that the Magic are more worried about, but I believe that Coach Van Gundy has a solution to him. Besides, even if we can't solve it, we still have LI. At worst, we will fight against each other.

"No one is stronger than the Magic this season in light rounds. The Lakers' defense is not as good as the Green Kai..."

There are too many comments and analyzes like this, and as soon as the style of painting changes, it becomes a warm-up discussion about the finals.

In fact, compared to the outside world, most of them are addicted to the end of the series, and the Magic are indeed paying more attention to the next game.

Now that the Green Kai is in the past tense, the Magic need to look forward, and there is only the last opponent and the last series in front of them.

The Magic's opponent in the finals has already been decided. They eliminated the defending champion Spurs Lakers with a big score of 4:1. The Lakers even locked in the promotion a day earlier than the Magic.

This round of the series may also be due to being too one-sided. Although they are old opponents and have a lot of topical gimmicks, they were still robbed of a lot of limelight by the Eastern Conference Finals.

And now that the result of this duel is released, it has aroused great attention all of a sudden.

In fact, not to mention the Magic, just the topicality of Kobe leading the Lakers to the finals again is enough to become a popular number one alone.

As a giant team with the second most championships after the Green Kais, the Lakers are already attracting a lot of attention because they are located in Los Angeles, not to mention that there are active super giants like Kobe who are very topical.

If it weren't for the relatively mediocre results of Kobe's team leadership in the past few years, and the playoffs would not go far, relying on various scoring performances, Kobe would have been dubbed the title of "League No. 1" long ago.

But there is no doubt that his popularity has remained high. Even if Garnett won the votes this season, many people think that it has something to do with the Lakers being in trouble at that time. Later, the Lakers were traded to Gasol. Entering the good state, the record has been rising all the way.

Up to now, it has reached a point that was absolutely unimaginable before the start of the game.

Or it should be said that neither the Lakers nor the Magic were in the ranks of the championship that everyone thought before the start of this season.

On the contrary, the defending champion Spurs and the favorite to win the championship after the completion of the offseason big deal, the Green Kai, each fell in the conference finals.

This also makes this finals look full of gold because of the foil of their respective opponents.

And naturally, the routine comparative predictions before the game began again.

In the ESPN program, among the thirteen invited "experts", 8 people were optimistic about the final victory of the Magic, and 5 of them were optimistic about resolving the battle within six games.

Those who are optimistic about the Lakers are mostly based on Kobe and the so-called wealthy background of the Lakers.

Of course, it may also be that the Lakers are more famous, have higher traffic, and more fans, so they are sensational.

Compared with the Lakers, the team has no championship in team history so far, and the highest is the magic team that reached the finals and was swept.

Of course, if they can win the cup this season, they will become the new hottest team and will also get a huge traffic bonus, which will also benefit the players in it a lot.

So even if it's just for their own interests, for everyone in the Magic team, they must do their best to win this championship.

But if they want to win the championship, they must overcome the stumbling block in front of them.

A few days later, on the evening of June 6 local time in the United States, the first game of the finals officially started. The Magic team played at home against the Los Angeles Lakers.

In the Amway Center, amidst the cheers of the Orlando fans, the game lasted for nearly two hours. In the end, the Magic lost their first home game unexpectedly at home with 90:101.

Judging from the outside world's pre-match predictions for the finals, this can be regarded as a moderate upset.

After the second round, the Magic's odds of winning the championship were firmly in second place, not much different from the number one Celtics.

And after the Eastern Conference finals, they and the Lakers widened the gap again.

But just when the outside world thought that the Magic had stabilized, they suddenly overturned.

There are many reasons for the Magic's loss. For example, they failed to defend the Lakers, Kobe Bryant almost scored 40+ in the first game, and Gasol also got a gorgeous stat of 15+15+5; for example, his own offense He didn't play well either, shooting 27% of the outside three-pointers, and only hit 6 of the large number of three-pointers.

As for the player's personal performance, Li Chengming's 17 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists seem to be quite satisfactory, but his shooting percentage is 17 of 6, which is considered a failure for him personally.

Howard's state is also very poor, making frequent mistakes on the defensive end, and was actually fouled by Gasol and Odom in a row. He received his fifth foul early in the fourth quarter.

He only played 31 minutes in this game, and it is precisely because of this that he has a great impact on the Magic's defensive continuity.

刘易斯三分8中1，特科格鲁6次失误，尼尔森只出手了4次，4中1……总之几个主要球员各有各的拉胯。

The performance of the role players is not bad, and even the plus-minus value of the substitutes is better than that of the starters. Several of them are +, but the problem is that no matter how good their performance is, they are only role players and cannot directly affect the game.

This game also made the supporters who are optimistic about the Magic team speechless. On the contrary, the Lakers supporters who were a little nervous before the game jumped up.
