At the beginning of the death entanglement, Curry followed me to slam dunk

Chapter 150 Gasol’s comfort
After the game, as the biggest contributor to the Warriors' victory, Du Zhe had to follow Nelson to attend a press conference to fulfill his obligations as the team boss.

"Du, you scored 40+ points again in today's game. Is this the beginning of the Warriors' counterattack?"

"Du, how do you feel about playing against Kobe this time? How do you evaluate Kobe's performance today?"

"Du, your contract is about to expire this summer, what are your plans for your future career!"

……

One after another, reporters asked Du Zhe questions like a barrage, unknowingly leaving Nelson and several other Warriors players who attended the press conference in the cold.

This situation made Du Zhe sigh with sadness.

Thinking back to this time a year ago, several people in the league had heard of his name.

At that time, he was just a rookie. Although he was a little famous in the Chinese basketball circle, he was unknown in the NBA.

And who would have thought that just one year later, he would reach such a level. Not only would he shock the league and be highly praised by all parties, but he could also easily crush the league's top superstars in terms of strength.

Even in Huaguo, he has surpassed Dayao's limelight and become No.1 in Huaguo's basketball circle.

While the Warriors and Lakers were fighting fiercely, the Eastern Conference Celtics and Magic also had a winner in Game 3.

The Celtics showed their tenacity as a champion. They defeated the Magic again with a score of 94:71 on the road, rewriting the score to 3:0. It can be said that half of the team's feet have entered the championship. finals.

It can be seen from the score that the Celtics' defense was extremely strong in this game.

The actual situation is even more so. There are many stars in the two teams, including Ray Allen, Pierce, Garnett, Carter, Howard, etc., but none of them scored more than 20 points.

The two conference finals in the East and West played out diametrically opposite scenarios. If the overall rhythm of the Western Conference Finals is a vigorous offensive battle, then the main theme of the Eastern Conference Finals is a gritty defensive battle.

This makes the fans look forward to the finals match even more, wanting to see who is better between Spear and Shield.

However, the Warriors are still lagging behind, and Du Zhe doesn't have the heart to pay attention to the next opponent. He thinks it's better not to open champagne at halftime.

And as the playoffs continue to deepen, the system points rewarded by the system every time they win a game become more and more generous.

Just for defeating the Lakers once, the system rewarded a total of 8 system points, plus Du Zhe's previous accumulation, it was enough for him to add a wave of points.

Now he has 23 system points left, and Du Zhe exchanged 20 of them for 4 ability improvement cards.

Then turn on the system and continue to add points.

[Straight-line dribble: 55-75]

In this way, he at least has the ability to handle the ball frontally against NBA-level defenses.

And with this addition, his strength has also ushered in a slight improvement.

【Name: Du Zhe】

【Comprehensive review: 93】

【Remaining system points: 3】

【各项技能：空位三分99、强投三分99、外线防守95、干扰投篮95、抢断95、防守意识95、隔人扣篮95、直线运球75……】

【身体素质：速度88、弹跳88、敏捷77、力量92、耐力93……】

[Talent: Death Coil (Hall of Fame level), Microwave (Hall of Fame level), Lore Killer (Gold level), Aggressive (Gold level), Frame Protector Elite (Bronze level)]

[Others: Stealer Gloves (active equipment), Stadium Villain (passive aura)]

So far, Du Zhe's ability value has basically approached the top level in the league, and his performance on the field has far exceeded it.

This is because his point addition is relatively concentrated, and almost no points are wasted under specialization.

The second is because he still has various talent halos around him, and his strength is definitely the only one in the league when he explodes with all his strength.

…………

At the same time, on the bus outside the court, the Lakers players were boarding the bus and preparing to return to the hotel.

Since the next game will be ushered in two days later, the Lakers plan to live in Oakland for a few days in order to avoid the fatigue of traveling back and forth.

After fighting fiercely throughout the game and losing the game at the last minute, the Lakers players felt very uncomfortable.

This also made the atmosphere on the entire bus extremely gloomy.

As for Kobe, who was beaten by Du Zhe on both offense and defense and missed several shots at the last moment, many players in the Lakers complained even more.

In their view, if Kobe hadn't insisted on going his own way at the last moment, the team might not have lost.

Not only were they intimidated by Kobe's status in the team, they didn't dare to show it in front of their face.

Kobe Bryant's face also looked pretty bad, and he said nothing since he boarded the bus.

And his face was even more gloomy and terrifying, with a feeling that water would drip out at any time.

In today's battle, he fought head-to-head with Du Zhe for more than 30 minutes, but what was the result?

Not only did his opponents score more than 40 points on his head, but even the offense he was proud of was completely blocked.

In the past, he also played abnormally, but Kobe believed that it was just his own poor state, and it had nothing to do with his opponent.

But when he met Du Zhe today, he was completely destroyed.

Especially those violent dunks one after another, it was a huge blow to his self-confidence.

Looking blankly at the scenery outside the window, Kobe sighed unconsciously.

Hearing Kobe's long sighs, as an old friend for many years, Pau Gasol took the initiative to comfort him: "Man, it's just a loss of a game. We are still in the lead. The sky hasn't fallen yet."

"Besides, the score difference in this game is not big. If we play hard, we will definitely win the next games!"

Although Gasol had faced off against Du Zhe once and knew that he was extremely powerful, he actually had no clear feeling about Du Zhe's specific strength.

After all, unlike Kobe, who was beaten for a whole game, he knew that Du Zhe would be difficult to handle.

Kobe just smiled bitterly when he heard the words, and said hoarsely: "Thank you Paul, I'm fine."

But Gasol looked at Kobe's empty eyes and knew that he was all right, he was just trying to hold on.

So he continued to comfort him: "No matter how strong Du Zhe is, he is only one person. Our Lakers team has a deep foundation. If we target him more tactically in the next game, it is still unknown who will win!"

"As long as we grit our teeth and cross this hurdle, whether it's the Celtics or the Magic behind us, how can they be our opponents!"

"Lakers championship!!!"

In order to encourage Kobe, Gasol, who has always been restrained, also said what he said with arrogance.
