He just played basketball and became the chosen one...

Chapter 195: King of the Western Conference! Next step, conquer Boston!

Ryan, 61 points in a single playoff game and 26 points in a single quarter!

In the regular season, he can win the scoring title.

In the playoffs, he was able to produce a historic scoring performance.

Moreover, he may be the first person in history to force a commentator who is not optimistic about him to change his words in public.

This cruel king does not allow any questioning voice to exist!

The Lakers suspended the game, but the fans in Los Angeles no longer dared to watch any more. They all know that the probability of the Lakers winning Tianwangshan is already quite low.

Kobe has already scored 51 points, but still can't finish the game.

There is simply nothing more desperate than this.

Kobe scored 51 points but failed to kill the game, which also highlighted Ryan's strength.

Lakers fans really can't imagine what else Kobe can do.

Do you really have to hold the ball from the three-point line all the way to the basket to defeat Ryan?

In the first two seasons, when Kobe showed his formidable scoring ability, all Lakers fans were dreaming that when the team's lineup got better again, Kobe would surely create another brilliant era for the Lakers.

But now Los Angeles fans have discovered that there is a guy whose scoring explosiveness is even more terrifying than Kobe!

Los Angeles fans couldn't believe their eyes. 61 points in a single game was still in the playoffs.

This has never happened since the 80s!

Although Jordan was the dominant player in the 90s, his 60+ points in a playoff game were also achieved in the 80s.

Kobe sat on the bench, his chest heaving violently.

But his eyes were still sharp, staring at the Zen Master.

He hasn't accepted his fate yet!

Jackson told Kobe to play a quick 2-pointer, and then the team immediately fouled Ben.

Well, everything seems to be back to the scene when Kobe and Ryan faced off for the first time during the regular season.

In the end, the only one who can save the Lakers is Ben!

The Lakers are indeed a team with a tradition of super centers!

But after returning from the game, Jackson discovered that Bird had directly replaced Ben with Millsap.

Played a super small lineup.

Oh no, it should be said that the Nuggets have become taller at the center position.

Big Bird certainly knows that such substitutions will weaken the team's ability to protect the frame.

But even if Kobe scores a goal next, the Nuggets lineup is capable of pulling back the point difference through free throws.

And if they continue to use big money, the Lakers will be fine if they don't score. Once they score, the situation will become quite dangerous.

The Zen master cursed secretly. Bird's behavior was as disgusting as putting a mosaic on the most critical part!

Big Bird, you coward!

If you have the guts, just leave your money on the field and let me wipe it!

If I don't let the strongest player on my side play, what's the point of winning! ?

Jackson gestured helplessly, indicating that he would foul Millsap directly after scoring a goal.

Although Millsap has shooting ability, because he has just come on the court, his touch is not necessarily guaranteed.

What's more, this is a critical moment, and Millsap may miss a free throw because of nervousness.

In short, after Kobe made this shot, he had to foul immediately to seize time and the ball!

However, what made the Zen Master despair.

Something went wrong in the first step of his plan to chase points.

Kobe's jump shot, under the simultaneous interference of Ryan and Artest, popped out of the frame!

Kobe really had no choice about this ball. He actually saw Ryan coming up to help defend, but Kobe felt that instead of letting Ariza shoot this kind of ball, it would be better to do it himself.

However, the fateful shot ended up off target.

Gasol almost grabbed the rebound and flicked the basketball as it bounced off the frame.

But the second time, Millsap, the NCAA rebounding leader, did not waste the opportunity. After seizing a favorable position, he steadily collected the rebound.

The Lakers fouled Millsap in time, but it was of little significance.

Director Zhang also said something that is very familiar to Chinese fans: "The Lakers winning is now only a theoretical possibility!"

Fortunately, this time this sentence was applied to the opponent.

Kobe's failure to score was already shocking enough, but Millsap also made two free throws steadily afterward.

At this point, the game has no suspense at all.

No one can take away Ryan's great night!

Ten seconds before the end of the game, Mike Breen looked at Doug Collins, whose microphone was completely turned off and his eyes were dull, and shook his head:

"Ryan's game will definitely make it difficult for most people to accept it for a while.

Before the game, everyone knew that Ryan's score in this game would be very high, but absolutely no one expected that it would be so high.

But after a few years, when we look back at the battle of Tianwang Mountain in the Western Conference, we will find that Ryan's performance matches his achievements.

The strongest player of this era should have the strongest performance! "

As soon as he finished speaking, the game was over.

112 to 105, the Denver Nuggets won the crucial Tianwangshan battle with a 7-point advantage at home after two consecutive losses!

Ryan scored 61 points in a single game, one of the only three players in NBA history to score 60 points in the playoffs.

Kobe's 51 points were brilliant enough, but compared with Ryan, they also seemed eclipsed.

In the stadium, the fans continued to cheer.

Outside the arena, the atmosphere of freedom has begun to spread.

Previously, the local security department was worried that after the Nuggets lost, fans would go shopping for zero dollars to vent their dissatisfaction.

But they didn’t expect that the fans would be so happy that they would also celebrate by buying for zero yuan.

On the court, Ryan did not celebrate.

Instead, he sat on the bench exhausted.

61 points, this is physical work.

The team scored 112 points, and Ryan scored 61 points alone.

One person scored more than half the points.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Lakers were suddenly killed by Ryan's firepower.

Ryan is alone and has his own offense.

At the beginning, it was in the middle and long distance, and then it went into the depth. This set is quite a physical exertion.

There is no way, the Nuggets this season can be regarded as a team with strong defense and weak offense.

Although it is not like the 76ers who played in the finals, there is really no one around AI who can score.

But the reliance on Ryan is indeed relatively large.

Because he was too exhausted, Ryan didn't even accept a sideline interview.

The reporter could only interview Artest, who played 40 minutes in the starting lineup today and scored 7 points.

"Ron, your defense against Kobe was very successful today. You didn't give Kobe an easy shot throughout the game.

What do you want to say about this important victory? "

Artest spread his hands:

"Defensive success? Come on, Kobe scored a full 51 points today. He scored 50 points in the playoffs twice in his career, and one of them happened to me.

To be honest, I'm not very satisfied with my defense today. Moreover, I couldn't help the team from outside the three-point line today, making 3 of 0 shots.

But like I said, even if I can't make a shot, Ryan can lead us to win the game!

With Ryan here, we are invincible!

We are following the greatest players in the world and heading towards the greatest goals! "

Good guy, reporters call him good guy.

Ryan was sitting on the sidelines passively pretending to beep!

Artest smiled secretly, hehe, my emotional intelligence is so high, why would Ben and AK compete with me?

Nuggets senior 1.5 position, I'm sure of it!

Basketball is not about fighting and killing, it is about human relationships~

The leader likes me, which is more important than anything else!

Male leader, then blow hard.

Female leader, then tease her hard!

If you do these two things well, a happy life is not a dream!

Artest's speech in the post-game interview made Ryan, who already performed brilliantly today, become more of a personal hero.

At this time, Artest turned around and saw that that bastard Ben actually asked the referee for the game ball and dedicated it to Ryan!

Artest cursed secretly, you kid really knows how to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha! Damn, why didn’t I think of this! ?

Ryan put away the basketball, sat on the bench to breathe evenly, and then looked up at the data on the big screen.

61 points in the playoffs, even Ryan himself felt a little magical.

During the game, Ryan didn't think about scoring data at all. Although he kept asking Collins to help him keep score, it was just trash talk, and Ryan didn't pay much attention to himself.

He only knew that he had to bring down Kobe!

Then I hit 60+ after hitting it.

Kobe's 51 points were strong enough. Artest was so defensive, but Kobe could still score 50+ points.

Even scarier than the 09-point game in the 40 Western Conference semifinals in history!

It can only be said that Kobe and Ryan brought out the best in each other in this game!

At this time, most people on the Internet are bragging about Ryan's single 61-point night.

Even Jordan was stunned when he saw the news. He had only achieved 60+ points in the playoffs once.

In the entire NBA history, only he and Baylor could do it before.

But now, a third person who meets the conditions appears.

Now, even Jordan is looking forward to Ryan winning three consecutive championships.

If Ryan succeeds in winning three consecutive championships, his statue will be sold for more!

At the Lakers' press conference, Kobe was staring at the data sheet in his hand in a daze.

He still can't believe it, Ryan actually scored 61 points!

Kobe knew very well what level of defender Ariza was. Although he was not a historic perimeter defender, he regarded defense as fun and was able to energetically deal with his opponents for 48 minutes. He spent 48 minutes thinking about how to repair himself. of counterpoint.

He is not only passionate but also resourceful, and his reading of defenses is always very accurate.

Ariza is like that kind of little fairy who thinks highly of herself in the marriage market. You can't even think of taking advantage of him.

There is also Zen Master. Kobe knows very well how many methods the old man used to contain Ryan today.

But it was completely useless, Ryan still won!

"Hey, the reporter's talking to you, bro."

Gasol patted Kobe on the shoulder at this time, and Kobe came back from his thoughts. "Ah? I'm listening? Uh. Can you repeat the question you just asked?"

"Kobe, can you comment on Ryan's 61 points in a single game? Of course, your 51 points are also great, I just..."

Kobe waved his hand:

"Don't comfort me, 51 points is not great at all in front of 61 points!

Ryan was the best player today!

Phil, our entire team, threw every move at him, directed every defense at him.

But he can still beat one, two or even three people and continue to score the ball.

Ryan was the deserving regular season MVP.

He won today, that's it. "

Kobe was not a loser, and he didn't make excuses for his losses.

But soon, Kobe approached the microphone again:

“But, I still say that, the series is not over yet.

When we were 0-2 behind, many media said we were doomed.

The results of it? We are still fighting.

But that's how the playoffs are, you never know who the winner is until the last moment.

In the next sixth game, we will equalize the score at home! "

Kobe's praise for Ryan is already quite high.

But Kobe is not the kind of person who surrenders easily.

He is still confident that he can win the next game.

But now few people care about Kobe and the Lakers.

The day after the game, it's not hard to imagine the excitement Ryan caused.

The popularity of this postseason 61-point game is almost the same as Kobe's 81-point dragon-slaying night.

Although there are 20 points less, the difference is that one is in the regular season and the other is in the Western Conference Finals. One is playing against a lottery team, and the other is playing against one of the best teams in the Western Conference!

Although after the game yesterday, the news of Ryan's 61 points in a single game had spread to the world through the Internet.

But today, all the newspapers reporting on the incident are still selling out.

ESPN reporters also interviewed many stars today to see how they would react to this.

Wade still looked confused when facing the camera:

"When I woke up this morning, I thought I had a dream last night, but when I read the newspaper, damn, Ryan actually scored 61 points in the playoffs!

Yesterday's game, to put it bluntly, I could only sit in front of the TV and shout WOW! "

The unruly AI also looked surprised in front of the camera:

"Ryan is probably the only person in the league who needs less training than me!"

Barkley naturally would not let go of this opportunity to brag about Ryan, but the angle he did it from was very tricky:

"Thank you Kobe, if it weren't for Kobe, we would never know where Ryan's upper limit was!

Think about it, if LeBron was playing against Ryan, Ryan would have won the game if he scored 30 points. We would never have seen such a wonderful performance! "

Ajan:? ? ?

This damn thing can drive me! ?

No, I don’t care about the breastmilk before the game. Why does it still have to do with me after the game?

What does this game have to do with me? ?

What bad intentions could a flying pig have? This shows that in the 03 class, Ajan has obtained the status of the deputy chosen son.

Otherwise, why doesn't Fliggy compare with Wade, Anthony and others?

This is Fliggy’s affirmation of James!

Ryan's 61 points in the playoffs were the first since the 80s.

So it is normal to cause a sensation.

Los Angeles fans can only endure all this silently now, waiting for the series to start in G6.

In the last game, even Los Angeles fans admitted that Ryan's performance was impeccable.

But there is only one such game after all!

As of now, the strength of both sides is still quite close. Although Ryan played his career masterpiece in the last game, the Nuggets didn't win much in the end.

Therefore, they all still hold out hope for the series.

But in fact, the Lakers are far from being as strong as Los Angeles people expected.

On May 5, in the legendary place of the NBA, where 29 championship banners were hung above the head, the Staples Center.

The Lakers lost to the Nuggets 88-128!

The Lakers were completely discouraged. When fans thought this team would fight back, they were completely discouraged because of Ryan's 61-point game in the last game.

I have said it countless times that the 2008 Lakers were not mentally strong enough.

Pau Gasol really looked like a weak Spanish woman. Even Kirilenko had to forcefully eat him several times in this game.

Ryan even scored a dunk that directly ignored his defense.

This goal allowed fans all over China to experience the thrill of the great Yangma.

The fans all slapped the table crazily: "Ryan is such a capable person. Not only did he go abroad and ride in the locker room by himself, he also rode on the basketball court for us to see!"

Odom was sleepwalking throughout the game, distracted on defense, and making poor shots.

Bynum is still too young and really has no means to help the team score.

After all, it was normal for a character who almost had a cerebral hemorrhage taught by Tian Gou to have no means of scoring.

The only one with fighting spirit in the entire team was Kobe.

But unfortunately, the only one with fighting spirit in the entire team is Kobe.

The Lakers fell behind by 35 points in three quarters, and there was no need to compete in the fourth quarter.

Ryan only scored 25 points today, less than half of the previous game.

It is indeed impossible for Ryan to have another legendary 61-point game, at least not in a row.

However, even if Ryan doesn't score so many points, the Lakers may not win.

The avalanche happened so suddenly.

Kobe could never realize that the moment he cursed and scored 51 points to lose the battle at Tianwangshan, this hot series had already left him.

Psychologically, this Lakers team is really difficult to compete with the Nuggets who are determined to build a dynasty.

So the collapse is just a momentary thing.

Such a result is naturally very difficult for Lakers fans to accept.

40 points, this is the largest point difference record in the Western Conference Finals since the 21st century!

They died suddenly and in the most shameful way.

After being counterattacked by the Nuggets in the regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers were also defeated by the Denver Miners in the playoffs!

Kobe was enveloped in unprecedented shame, but he still hugged Ryan after the game.

People thought that after the Lakers' rise this season, they would dominate the Western Conference again.

As a result, the rise of the Lakers only served as a stepping stone for Ryan's legendary dynasty.

And Ryan.

61 points in a single game, breaking the Western Conference Finals record.

Winning a single game by 40 points also created Western Conference history.

This result made Mike Breen cheer at the end of the game: "Ryan is the well-deserved king of the Western Conference Finals!"

Although the score was 4-2 instead of 4-0, Ryan entered the finals for the third consecutive year in the most dominant manner!

After the game, Kobe still received a lot of praise at the press conference.

After all, before the start of this season, no team believed that the Lakers could reach the Western Conference Finals.

But Kobe did not show even a smile. He just told reporters: "Our goal is only the championship, and we failed. I will start training tomorrow, and we will come again next season!"

The same expression and answer also appeared on Ryan's face:

"The Western Conference championship trophy is great, but like a sumptuous seafood dinner, it can't just be the appetizer.

The main dish is what counts!

Now you can wish your next opponent good luck. "

Defeating Kobe and putting up legendary numbers in the Western Conference Finals was just foreplay.

Where are some people who are particularly hard-core in foreplay, but end up giving up as soon as the main scene begins?

So the next finals is what Ryan really cares about!

Although at this time, the Eastern Conference Finals are still in full swing.

But Ryan certainly knows very well which team will reach the finals.

He approached the microphone with a serious expression:

“In the first game of the regular season this year, that team beat us by a full 14 points in the opening game and the championship ring awarding ceremony.

Suddenly the team was thrown into hell.

Then, the team went through injuries, struggles, roster shakeups, suspensions.

The Nuggets have encountered too many things and crossed many hurdles along the way this season.

But now, the Denver Nuggets are still standing here!

We have Ron who is invincible on the defensive end. He is responsible for fighting the opponent's leading scorer for 40 points in every game. He will never give up even if he is tired and puts his hands on his knees.

We had the budget that felt like our careers were over in Cleveland, and we established a no-fly zone in Denver.

We have Andre, this bastard didn’t just get a tattoo when he was injured, you have no idea how much he came back to get back on the court.

We have Monta Ellis, a little brother who always helps me score.

We have Millsap, and you can never underestimate his power.

We have Andre Miller, and his second unit always gives me peace of mind to breathe.

We have feathered Birdman, we have Lori, we have Percy, all of us, standing here!

We have gone through all the hardships, now, it is time to embrace the honor! "

Ryan didn't mention his 60-point night at all, nor did he mention today's 40-point victory.

Although he is known as the King of the Western Conference Finals, in Ryan's words, it is as if the Western Conference Finals never happened.

His eyes are all on the championship trophy!

During their last encounter, Lane left the North Shore Gardens floor covered in blood.

This time, it's not just blood.

Ryan will also place the heads of Boston's Big Three on that green floor!

The final step to becoming a legend, no matter how tough the Celtics are, no matter how scary North Shore Garden is.

The weathered Denver miners will face these obstacles directly and overcome them with determined steps!
