NBA: Legendary coach signs with league for 10 years

Pepsi Center.

In the past few days, it has been quite hard for Nuggets fans.

Although they have already won 3-1, OK's super personal performance in the last game at Staples Center has also made them doubt themselves about advancing to the finals.

The finals is already a grand event for Denver people. Even if they can't win the championship, it will be an encouragement to the whole city.

OK's personal strength in the last game is still vivid in our minds.

If they lose this game and go to the seventh game, the Nuggets will really be far away. The seventh game is about competing for stars and state. The Lakers with OK are obviously sitting on the scales of victory.

If there was no hope, Denver people would not be like this. It's unacceptable that they have already seen the hope become the current situation.

Today's stadium is not only sold out, but almost everyone stood up.

There is a sense of presence with the team.

Wang Chen has also arrived in the stadium and felt the atmosphere of the stadium. Wang Chen, who looks calm on the surface, is actually not calm in his heart.

The tension of this game is even higher than the seventh game with the Timberwolves.

There is still a chance to win against the Timberwolves in a Game 7, but if they play against the Lakers in a Game 7, and Kobe gets into some weird state, the Nuggets will have almost no chance of winning.

"This is a weak team. If I could run the trades from the beginning of the season, I wouldn't have to expect the opponent to have a bad touch."

Wang Chen sighed.

He has the memory of traveling through time, but she was still an assistant coach at that time, and the management would not listen to her opinions at all, whether it was the draft or the trade.

The Nuggets are a bottom-ranked team, and it is very difficult to play until now even with the system.

Of course, Phil Jackson on the opposite side was also nervous.

This game is too crucial. If they win this game and drag it to the seventh game, the Lakers will have an OK winning rate and increase significantly. In today's game, not only the players of both sides, but also the staff of both teams are also very nervous.

It can be said that tonight's game is likely to determine the team in the finals.

On the commentary stand

"Neither side said much. The atmosphere was so depressing that even I felt nervous sitting here.

John rubbed his hands. He didn't know why he couldn't help but feel nervous.

"This is about whether the Nuggets, a black eight team, can make it to the finals and dispel the argument that black eight teams cannot make it to the finals."

Barkley also emphasized the importance of this game.

"But Kobe played well in the double-team last game, and if his touch continues, it will be difficult for the Nuggets.

Kenny Smith shook his head and said

"In fact, the strength gap between the two teams was huge from the beginning. The gap between OK, Payton's failure to integrate into the tactics, Malone's injury......"

"These factors combined together gave the Nuggets a chance to play like this against the Lakers."

John Xun analyzed seriously

"Why do I feel like you're describing the Nuggets as a sneaky existence?"

Barkley said with a laugh.

Barkley's words successfully eased the tense atmosphere of the game.

Of course, it only eased the tense atmosphere in their commentary booth, and the live game was still full of solemnity.

At this time, the players of both teams also entered the field. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

The coaches of the two teams walked to the middle and shook hands.

Phil Jackson no longer likes Wang Chen. He doesn't recognize Wang Chen, so naturally he has nothing to say to Wang Chen. He shook hands with Wang Chen casually, without even looking at Wang Chen, and immediately turned around and walked back to the Lakers bench after shaking hands.

Phil - Jackson didn't look good to him, so Wang Chen naturally had nothing to say to Phil Jackson. After all, this was a game related to the finals, and he didn't want anything to affect his mood.

Everyone was nervous in the Pepsi Center.

Nuggets starting lineup: Chris Andersen (C), Marcus Camby (PF), Carmelo Anthony (SF), Rodney White (SG), Andre Miller (PG).

Lakers starting lineup: Shaquille O'Neal (C), Karl Malone (PF), Devin George (SF), Kobe Bryant (SG), Derek Fisher (PG).

It is still the lineup that both sides feel most confident in.

At this point in the series, Wang Chen and Phil Jackson both feel that there is nothing wrong with their tactics.

All the variables are only Kobe.

Jump ball.

Anderson finally fought back this time and jumped to the ball for the Nuggets.

After jumping to the ball, the [Information Tactics Board] was officially opened.

Wang Chen immediately checked the players' loading on the court.

Lakers: Two hot, no cold, three ordinary, Fisher and O'Neal are in hot form.

Nuggets: Three hot, one Camby, Miller, and Anderson were in hot form, Anthony was in normal form, and White was in cold form.

After seeing this state, Wang Chen immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Kobe was not in hot form.

Wang Chen was very scared when he saw the Nuggets had a cold form, fearing that Anthony would have a hard time playing if he had a cold form.

Fortunately, although Anthony was not in hot form, he was still in normal form, and it didn't matter if White was cold.
