Chapter 440 Return of the God of War!
"The Lakers lost!"
Just like the Chicago Bulls lost the game before, the news of the Lakers' loss in G3 was instantly known to everyone.
The Lakers' nine-game winning streak in the playoffs this season has come to an end. Although no one has ever dared to predict that the Lakers will be able to sweep Houston, the huge point difference between the two sides and the performance on the field in this game have aroused heated discussions.
"I knew Kobe and Shaq were unreliable boys."
"Haha, Hakim and Charles are the best! Invincible!"
"Look at Charles' performance! Houston just conceded two games to the Lakers, and then they will end the Lakers with a winning streak!"
The views of some ordinary fans, their views are very simple. The side with more stars wins, and most basketball beginners think so.
And this game also aroused heated discussions among many senior people.
"Harris is a bit risky to change tactics rashly!"
"Houston has shown its cards. Barkley and Olajuwon's pick-and-roll currently seems to be unsolvable for the Lakers."
"There is no solution. Unless I give the Lakers a Bill Russell, I can't think of any other way to break this offensive system."
"Teaming? No, Barkley and Olajuwon played too fast."
"The Lakers' 2:0 is really not stable at all! As long as they can't solve this game, they will lose."
"The offensive efficiency of the OK combination is so high, so it doesn't mean they are sure to lose, right?"
"The needle is not poked! The West fights for offense, and the East fights for defense. This year's playoffs will not be poked! What will the finals be like! Looking forward to it."
It is certain to look down on the Lakers. The Lakers have not been the traditional championship contenders in the eyes of the media from the beginning.
Too many people think that the Lakers' youth storm will only last in the regular season. How many people think that the Lakers can make it all the way to the Western Conference Finals before losing?
No!
ESPN's prediction for the Lakers is a 3:2 victory over the Kings!
1:4 lost to the Sonics!
Before the start of the series against Houston, 80% of ESPN experts believed that the Lakers would be swept away!
This is still the judgment that the Lakers have never lost. The Lakers really lost this game! And it was a complete collapse from tactics to players!
Too many experts can finally find a theoretical basis to say that the Lakers can't go far!
"Damn it, why do these people think we will lose to Houston 2:4." Xiaoyu walked into Kobe's room wearing a nightgown and holding a newspaper.
Kobe, Bowen, Eddie Jones, and Big Ben are watching the video together.
This is the Mamba class, Kobe specially showed several Lakers rookies to watch the video to analyze the problems, adjust and improve.
"You take the Houston Daily, of course you think we're doomed." Bowen gave Xiaoyu a shudder, and Xiaoyu cried out.
How to crack Houston's offensive system, Kobe Bryant thought hard after the game, and finally found a way.
The key to cracking Barkley and Olajuwon's pick-and-roll is not Kobe or O'Neal, but the Lakers' recently famous "God of War"!
God of War Big Ben will finally return in the next game after being suspended for two games!
The God of War returns, and Barkley is the winner!
"Big Ben, you crooked smile."
"Why do you have to smile crookedly?"
"That's cool! That's right, you can use this emoji when you defend Barkley tomorrow, and it will work!"
And Bowen is definitely the key. In the next game, Kobe plans to give up the fight with Drexler. He fought with the glider for three games and consumed a lot of energy. Although he blocked Drexler Kesler's own offense didn't interfere at all with Houston's overall offense.
Bowen goes to defend the glider!
Kobe will put all his physical energy on the offensive end!
In the next game, not only BIG BEN will return, but also Kobe in black mamba mode!
. . .
"Come on! Cheers! The Lakers lost! It's a big white!" Among the unicorns in Seattle, Payton was hugging left and right, drinking happily.
"Dry!"
"Gary, Sean hasn't been to Unicorn for a week." A pony boy said to Peyton.
"This is impossible!" Peyton got up from the sofa in disbelief, and then sat down as if thinking of something.
is sean really
Which team will it be?
It can't be Los Angeles, can it?
Thinking of Sean Kemp's personality and Los Angeles Bass's boldness to spend a lot of money, Payton was a little worried.
"The team management called me today, Gary. They promised to get you a good helper this summer."
"Excellent helper? Can he be better than Sean?" Peyton smiled disdainfully.
"maybe."
There were not many big fish in the free market in 1997, and Sean Kemp was almost the strongest player among them.
Payton also wants to express himself like Kobe Jordan in the playoffs, but will next year really be better than this year's result?
Gary Payton was lost in thought in the flickering lights of the nightclub.
. . .
As the Lakers' G3 ended, the Bulls and Heat's G3 in the East also came to fruition.
Bulls 98: 74 Heat!
24 points of carnage!
3:0!
Once again, the Heat only got one and an embarrassing score.
Tim Hardaway scored 2 of 9, 6 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 5 turnovers.
Mourning 12+9.
Mashburn 14+4.
In addition, no one from the Heat scored in double figures!
execution!
In this game, Jordan executed a team of point guards in this league on the spot!
With Tim Hardaway blocked, he also scored 34 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 3 turnovers on 14 of 25 shots.
The rest of the Bulls also completely locked their opponents!
The series between the Heat and the Bulls can be concluded after this game. In the 50-year history of the NBA, no team that has been defeated by 3:0 can come back, even in 2020.
"Michael, congratulations on winning G3! The Bulls have advanced steadily. May I ask what you think about the Western Conference Finals! The Lakers lost. Is it possible for them to be overturned?"
Jordan raised his eyebrows. This reporter is so courageous that he dared to ask West for his opinion after the Bulls game.
But Jordan is in a good mood today, and Phil Jackson is really preparing for the next round of opponents.
Whether the Lakers win or Houston wins, the Bulls have a plan for them.
Now the Bulls are snipe and clam fighting for the fisherman's profit. What they are waiting for is that the Lakers and Houston will meet each other to the death.
"The Western Conference finals are very intense and anxious, and I will be no exception if any side wins."
"What do you want to say to your opponent in the next round?"
"There is nothing to say, now I want to know who is the designer of this year's championship ring?" Michael Jordan smiled domineeringly and waved his hand.
No matter who the opponent is in the next round, there is no way to shake my dominance.
I want everyone to understand that I am the god of basketball.
