The rise of the NBA superstar

Chapter 415, Thunder Crisis.

Li Senlin lived a comfortable life recuperating at home.

He posted about his life on the Internet every day, showed his affection, and asked netizens where to go for fun in summer.

People give a man nicknamed "Weibo King".

Li Senlin accompanied Lin Xiaolu to record a reality show, and then dealt with company affairs.

The couple had a very happy life, and Lin Xiaolu became more and more clingy to him.

From the outside world, Li Senlin seems to have completely forgotten about the ongoing finals.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to the summer vacation.

Only Lin Xiaolu knew that Li Senlin was watching the Celtics game video every day, and followed the Celtics news all the time.

After Li Senlin learned that Kobe was going to undergo surgery for a "torn Achilles tendon", he became more serious about studying the video.

In the first game, after it was confirmed that Li Senlin was absent.

The Celtics were completely relieved, and they could concentrate on dealing with the Thunder, who had only two young players.

The G1 match between the Boston Celtics and the Thunder in the Finals started in Boston's North Shore Garden Arena.

The finals were played in 2-3-2 mode.

The Celtics have home court advantage and will play two games at home first.

Before the game, public opinion was overwhelmingly optimistic that the Boston Celtics would win a good start.

ESPN, TNT, and Fox Sports believe that the Thunder are vulnerable without Li Senlin.

This round of the series may be the most unspectacular game in history. Li Senlin's effect on the Thunder is the same as Kobe's effect on the Lakers.

Be it the media or the fans, all of them recognize the Thunder's extraordinary talent, but they all feel that their championship will be in the future, not now, and they will be considered successful if they reach the finals.

Westbrook and Durant's trip to the Western Conference playoffs proved that these two superstars are still immature.

The combined stats of the two are not as good as Li Senlin's. If it weren't for Li Senlin's god-level explosion, Thunder would never have made it this far!
Without Li Senlin, the Thunder is unlikely to cause any obstacles to the 08 champion.

Analysts before the game believed that although the Thunder would have a slight advantage at small forward and point guard,

But the Celtics can deal with the impact of Westbrook and Kevin Durant with depth;

KG's strength can completely defeat the Thunder's Ibaka;

Perkins can take Kostic hard.

Harden can't guard against Ray Allen, and the Celtics can defeat the young Thunder with their lineup depth.

After the game started, judging from the game scene, it was obvious that the Celtics had the upper hand.

Without Li Senlin, everyone in the Thunder doesn't seem to know how to play.

Superstar matchup: Durant is lost and crazily strikes iron.

Westbrook was forced to bomb the Celtics penalty area one-on-one many times, and the performance of the Turtles is still at the superstar level.

But for the Thunder to win, only Durant and the Turtles can reach the BUG level at the same time.

Inside matchup: The Thunder without center Chandler can do nothing in front of Perkins and Garnett. Power forward Ibaka can’t play against Garnett. Garnett played six years younger. At the current level, the offensive and defensive ends completely exploded with 28 cards.

The Thunder not only couldn't defend against KG inside, but at the same time, due to mentality problems, the inside offense also had a long time to fight.

Brooks was forced to use Collison to defend against KG, but Harder dragged out a mid-range shot, and Collison had nothing to do.

Specific center matchup: The Thunder's two centers face each other with more strength, and they do not have an absolute advantage against Perkins, the top traditional defensive center.

Point matchup: The Thunder was completely blown out. Ray Allen used double screens and moved without the ball to lead Harden's nose. Harden couldn't defend Ray Allen, and his singles efficiency was extremely low. The foul move is completely useless, the referee doesn't blow it, and the Celtics' old fritters are not easy to deceive.

Most of Green Kai's offensive tactics are driven by Ray Allen's off-ball movement, so Green Kai's offense has been going smoothly from this point on.

Point guard matchup, Rondo's overall performance is better than Westbrook's. Westbrook plays singles, and Rondo organizes. As the fourth giant, Rondo's role in threading needles is greater than that of one of the three giants, with 16 points in a single game. The assists are proof of that.

Defensively, Rondo also formed a strangle line with Garnett to block Westbrook, forcing him to play singles. Westbrook was repeatedly intercepted by Rondo.

In the bench matchup, the Celtics' Rasheed Wallace and Big Baby all performed well, while the Thunder's bench lineup all performed poorly. After Harden was put on the starting lineup, none of them performed normally.

In the coach matchup, the champion coach Rivers, who was looked down upon by Li Senlin, commanded Brooks on the spot.

In the comparison of the six levels, except for the sluggish former Pierce, the rest of the teams have completely defeated the Thunder, which is short of major generals.

In Game 102, the Celtics beat the Thunder 77-[-] at home.

The Thunder's G1 battle was helpless.

In this way, the Thunder's disastrous defeat in the first game is not unforgivable. The result of the Thunder's game did not exceed anyone's expectations.

The media and fans are still complacent about their predictions.

After G1 ends.

Li Senlin did not express any anxiety about the Thunder's loss.

He watched the video of the game repeatedly at home, trying to interpret the Celtics' tactics. .

Li Senlin knew that his ankle was recovering rapidly. Three days later, he could feel the improvement of his injury.

6 month 4 day.

Before the start of G2, the Thunder generals issued a very strong battle declaration before the game.

Westbrook and Durant rant to the media.

The second game is about to break out and win the game. .

Despite their vows, there is still no media that is optimistic about the Thunder.

Brooks also simply put down his harsh words in the locker room: "Durant, Westbrook, just the two of you to attack, don't expect any teammates!!"

So in the second game, the Thunder and Thunder broke out completely.

In the first half, Durant entered the scoring mode: breakthrough with the ball, mid-range shot with an emergency stop, tentative step-back jumper, and difficult layup.

Westbrook's master posture is also full: he monopolizes the ball, speeds up, dunks, and hits a super three-pointer, which is unstoppable.

But the organization of the Thunder was abandoned, and the team's return to defense was slow after the doubles and singles.

Westbrook's emotional ups and downs made the Thunder ride a roller coaster.

In the third quarter, Westbrook played abnormally. He was absent-minded on the defensive end and was molested by Rondo. Westbrook’s shooting has improved, but his shot selection has also deteriorated. Sexual mistakes", fumbles, slippery hands, rolls out of bounds, being touched during a fast break, being tricked into jumping fouls.

Although Westbrook organized patiently in the fourth quarter, connected in series, waited for Durant to cut out, plug the ball, pass the ball to Harden, and pass the ball to Collison.

But Westbrook was powerless to prevent the Thunder's second defeat.

92:93.

In G2, the Thunder narrowly lost by one point.

杜兰特拿下33分11篮板，威斯布鲁克拿下35分11篮板10助攻10失误的豪华四双。

The narrow victory of this game made the Celtics break into a cold sweat.

The double and junior almost took away the game with their personal ability. This kind of super potential surprised the media and fans.

So, this round of the series seems to be a bit interesting.

After watching the game, Li Senlin threw away his crutches at home, stood up and roared! !
Just one point away! !

Oh shit! !
Lin Xiaolu was very surprised by Li Senlin's sudden upright standing.

Although Li Senlin repeatedly said that his feet are fine.

But Lin Xiaolu still insisted that Li Senlin stay on crutches, and he was not allowed to throw it.

G3, June 6th.

The Thunder return to host the Celtics.

For the sake of confidentiality, Li Senlin did not appear at the Ford Center to support the Thunder.

Although the fans were a little surprised, they didn't care too much. The fans thought that Li Senlin might be injured and couldn't move around!Only Chandler sat courtside in his suit.

Durant and Westbrook did not accept interviews before the game, their faces were very solemn and nervous!
This is the second time they have fallen into a situation where they are about to be beaten 3-0 by their opponents.

Last time it was Li Senlin who came out to save the team, but what about today?
Durant and Westbrook chose to carry the team on their own and no longer count on their teammates.

Brooks doesn't have many ways to deal with the Celtics. The overall strength and experience gap between the two sides is really big.

G3 played very badly, and the Thunder almost took the lead at home.

Durant and Westbrook broke out again.

The two teamed up to score 70 points in regular time, and they continued to score talented goals when the Celtics were about to catch up.

Harden on the bench also contributed at critical moments.

But today's Thunder had no choice but to encounter Ray Allen, who was against the sky. Allen made 13 of 9 three-pointers in a single game, and scored an equalizing three-pointer at the last moment.

So the two sides fought fiercely for two overtimes!

G3 Thunder once again lost 108 to 110.

The series fell behind the Celtics 0-3.

Westbrook and Durant choked up after the game! !Harden was silent, and they were almost able to recover a game.

0 to 3 and 1 to 2 are the difference between heaven and earth.

Li Senlin watched the game. He was excited at home for three hours. When Li Senlin thought that the Thunder could win the round, the Celtics used the most critical score to push the Thunder to the edge of the cliff. .

"Is it really impossible to catch up?"

Li Senlin touched his ankle and muttered to himself.

Li Senlin's ankle recovered very quickly, and he could almost feel his function recovering every day.

But as the system expected, it said 12 days, one day cannot be missed, and the difference between the 11th day and the 12th day is very big.

And the Thunder G4 happened to be on the 11th day.

So it is impossible for Li Senlin to catch up with G4.

"Russell, don't give up, hold on one more game! Win one more game for me."

"Kevin, win G4!"

"James, give me a win and come back."

On the night that G3 ended, Li Senlin called the three of them one by one to confirm that they had not given up, so he was relieved.

Li Senlin himself also started to contact the Thunder's team doctor, preparing to let them come for a physical examination

Li Senlin began to do upper body strength and ball sense recovery training at home.

After the Thunder fell behind 0 to 3.

The comments on China and the United States no longer discuss the ownership of the championship. .

Everyone felt that the Celtics had won the championship.

No team in NBA history has completed a reversal from a 0-3 deficit.

"Although the Thunder's defeat is an honor, they only lost 3 points in the last two games. Their future is limitless."

"Lacking two offensive and defensive cores, they have no regrets this season."

"Westbrook and Durant have really shown the level of superstars, and that James Harden, the explosive scoring power is too powerful, it's terrible. If Li Senlin and Chandler are there, this round of the series The score should be reversed."

"Yeah, if Li Senlin doesn't leave next year, they will probably be the strongest team."

"They've been unlucky this year."

"If Li Senlin is not injured?"

"Their future will create a dynasty."

"I am the champion."

Before G4.

ESPM and TNT have prepared a large number of reporters and programs to congratulate the Celtics for winning the championship.

NBA officials have even moved the championship trophy to the Ford Center.

Boston's logistics team has already printed championship honor shirts and hats with the Celtics logo.

Just wait for the Celtics to win G4 or G5.

They held the 2009-10 NBA championship award ceremony directly at the Ford Center.

G4 pre-match interview area.

The Celtics players happily accepted interviews from reporters in the interview area.

Ray Allen wore sunglasses and said: "KD and Russ are good young people, they are future superstars, the future belongs to them, but now? It's still ours"

Garnett laughed: "We took the championship first! They still have a chance in the future, but it's a pity that Li is not here, haha."

Rivers smiled happily: "It would be perfect to win the championship in Boston, but I don't mind winning the cup here."

At this time, the Celtics have already begun to prepare for the celebration ceremony after winning the championship.

Because they feel that the O'Brien Cup is about to be in their pocket.

Inside the locker room passage.

Durant, Westbrook, and Harden saw the official NBA staff pushing the O'Brien trophy to the door of the locker room.

All three are mentally tough players, and they were not hit by such humiliation, they just felt very uncomfortable.

"Humph."

"Boom."

Westbrook looked very serious. The Turtle hammered the wall of the locker room with his right hand, and then said in an unusually calm voice: "Kevin, James, do you believe in miracles?"

Seeing the O'Brien Cup, Durant's expression was also very bad, he nodded seriously: "I believe it!"

Harden squinted at the two older brothers and said, "I also believe in miracles."

Westbrook's face suddenly changed, he gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and said, "Isn't there no team in NBA history that has ever tried a 0-3 comeback? Then let's try it, how about it?"

"Well, that's right, I want to try it too!"

Hearing Westbrook's words, Durant's eyes were firm.

"I see."

Harden still looks lazy.

But what was different from before was that there was a gleam in his eyes at this time.

The three of them were determined to make a comeback.

Human desires are increasing, and perhaps at the beginning of the season, the Thunder's goal may only be the Western Conference Finals.

But it's come to this point, who doesn't yearn for the last O'Brien Cup?

What's more, the three of them are the three future "MVPs" in Li Senlin's mouth.

The rise of some strong people is doomed.

The heart of the strong will be different from others.

at this time.

"Dang! Dang! Teammate Russell Westbrook was promoted to SS, and James Harden was promoted to A+"

Li Senlin, who was nervously watching TV at home, froze for a moment.

But soon, Li Senlin laughed.

Li Senlin stood up, stretched his body, and twisted his right ankle.

What are you nervous about.

Isn't the finals over yet?
Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.
