Chapter 1484 See You in the Finals

"boom!"

The sound of a basketball popping out of the hoop.

The ball bounced directly into Kobe's hands, which made all the fans in the audience breathe a sigh of relief. You can even hear the exhalation coming from the broadcast signal. Avril Lavigne on the sidelines patted her heavy chest and exhaled heavily. Fortunately, she didn't score.

To be honest, the trend of the game in the last few minutes really shocked all Lakers fans. When they led by 17 points in the third quarter, everyone thought the game was stable, but the trend after that was different from what people imagined. .

The Green Army showed its resilience, especially in the absence of Rondo, the team's best organizer. When Pierce, Garnett, and Ray Allen were trapped, Rasheed Wallace stepped up. The double power forward combination formed by him and Garnett actually suppressed the Lakers Twin Towers. Rasheed Wallace made 4 of 4 three-pointers and scored 14 points in the last 14 minutes, helping the team reduce the score to Within ten minutes.

This undoubtedly stimulated the Big Three, who woke up when they saw an equalizer or even a lead.

Garnett, Ray Allen, and Pierce seemed to have been opened up at the last moment, and they could make whatever shots they wanted. On the contrary, the Lakers' offense was hindered. Kobe, who had been going smoothly before this game, suddenly misfired and only scored in the last quarter. 4 points, and Ji Feng's touch was also affected by his iron-blooded defense, and the point difference became smaller and smaller.

The two sides even started a foul battle. In the last 3 minutes, both sides kept standing on the free throw line. The Green Army even used the tactic of cutting Bynum. Fortunately, Bynum's free throws were strong and the point difference was locked at about 3 points. !

The Lakers still maintained a 3-point advantage in the last 32 seconds, but Kobe's missed shot gave the Green Army a chance to equalize. After the timeout, the Green Army once again played a wonderful 24 seconds of cooperation. Rasheed Wallace showed his ability in the paint. Value, once the best high pick-and-roller in the league, he passed a wonderful ball to the open Pierce!

Pierce shot at the buzzer with 1 second left.

elegant?

So elegant!

beautiful?

So beautiful!

It's just a pity that I couldn't make the shot!

"SHIT!"

After Pierce landed, he patted his head remorsefully. Obviously, he felt very regretful that he missed this crucial three-pointer.

"Oh, it's such a pity. The goal didn't go in, so the chance was very slim." Yu Jia's voice was a little regretful. In the last few minutes, the Green Army showed their strength, which made him, a die-hard Lakers fan, a little shaken.

In the last 8 seconds, Kobe did not choose to continue the attack. He dribbled the ball to end the final time. The Green Army did not find a chance to foul, and the game ended.

102-99, the Lakers defeated the old rival Celtics by 3 points in this Christmas game and won one of the most important victories of the season. The Lakers' record this season is 26 wins and 1 loss, which is the same as the previous season. The same period of the season!

This is undoubtedly a terrifying record, because the Lakers have the opportunity to continue to refresh the many records they set last season.

"Congratulations to the Lakers!" Commentators around the world shouted at this moment. In their hearts, the Lakers are still the same Lakers. Even such a strong Green Army failed to win, which shows how strong the Lakers are.

However, although the game was won, Ji Feng did not enjoy the cheers of the fans because the opposite Green Army brought different pressure to him.

"They are really strong." Ji Feng's expression was a little solemn. The last moment was just a microcosm of the Green Army's entire game. Their strength was really strong enough. After all, this game should be the most difficult game Ji Feng has played in the past two seasons. Competition.

If it weren't for Ji Feng's cleverness in beating Rondo down in the second quarter, the latter could barely perform after that. If not, the outcome would have been really uncertain.

Just look at the statistics of the two teams.

The Lakers are definitely in full bloom in this game. The highest scorer is Kobe, who scored 27 points and 6 rebounds, with a shooting percentage of over 50%. The second scorer is Ji Feng, who scored 20 points, 16 assists and 8 assists. A large double-double in rebounds and a near-triple-double. Except for the regret that he could not continue to play 50+ games, his performance was impeccable.

Besides JK, the best performer was Artest, who scored 10 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks in 24 minutes. He restricted Pierce for a long time and was the Lakers' first defensive champion in this game.

Inside, Pau Gasol had 15 points and 7 rebounds, Bynum had 12 points and 11 rebounds, plus Lao Yu's 10 points, six Lakers players scored in double figures, which was definitely a heroic performance.

In the past, the Lakers would win very simply under this kind of performance. In the past, half of the reasons why the Lakers lost were because they were in poor condition and performed poorly. Once they performed normally, the Lakers had not experienced the feeling of losing for a long time, but tonight, Green The Army made the Lakers win a bit embarrassed.

Ray Allen made 5 of 7 three-pointers and scored 17 points, Pierce had 19 points and 6 assists, Garnett had 18 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks. The Big Three are still brave, while Rasheed Wallace is dreaming of returning to his peak. Meaning, he made 8 of 12 shots from the field and 5 of 6 three-pointers. His shooting percentage was higher than that of Ray Allen. He scored 24 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. This kind of data allows people to see the future of the Green Army. of infinite possibilities.

"The Big Four of the Green Army scored a high score of 78 points. Their performance was comparable to the Lakers' starting lineup. In other words, this may be the only team in the league that can compete with the Lakers' starting lineup." ESPN analyzed after the game.

If Rondo hadn't only played 20 minutes and scored 6 points and 7 assists, the Green Army might really have a chance to complete a big comeback.

Based on this analysis, the best player in this game was given to Ji Feng. The commentators believed that Ji Feng seduced Rondo into making consecutive low-level mistakes and broke Rondo's mentality. This is the most critical performance in this game. Otherwise, the two teams may have a decisive battle until dawn. The Lakers may also lose the game.

The Green Army thought so too, so they were very unwilling after the game. Pierce, who missed a flat shot, was the first to bear the brunt: "This game is my problem. I failed to make a shot that was passed to me. Then It was a very good opportunity. It was my problem that I didn’t make the shot, and I didn’t perform well in the first half.”

Pierce first took the responsibility for the defeat, but soon he changed the subject and issued a challenge to the Lakers: "But this game gave us more confidence. We know that we can compete with them. They are very strong." , but not invincible. Go to the North Shore Garden for the next game and they will tell you the answer.”

Garnett was more direct. He shouted to the Lakers and asked them to meet again in the finals!

"There is no one who doesn't want to see us meet when we are in total despair, but at that time, we will be the winners!"

Kobe Bryant responded to the Green Army's remarks: "The finals are still a bit far away, but we will get there. As for them, they have to keep working hard."

There is no doubt that this game will arouse topics for a long time in the future, but the phrase "see you in the finals" did not attract people's attention. Most people are still more optimistic about the Cavaliers reaching the finals, but no one thought Have you ever thought that this sentence will really come true...
