Chapter 739 Youth Invincible
This season, the news center at Staples should be the busiest in the league, with more than twice as many reporters gathering here after each game than in a small-city club.
This also directly leads to the fact that not just any media can come in here. Like some unknown small sports media, they can only wait for specific news outside the channel.
But even this still can't stop the media's determination to come here to interview, there is no way, there is Kobe here, there is Ji Feng here, the players here are really hot!
Today, the number of media gathered here is more than in the past. Naturally, it is because the game in G2 of the Western Conference is exciting enough. There are too many topics that can be news. For example, Ji Feng's last steal and dunk, Kobe Bryant's final Continuous scoring at the moment, Ji Feng alone against the Spurs' three 3 positions and so on.
Second, it is naturally because the Lakers are going to the away game soon, and the intensity of this game is so intense, so all the Lakers JKJ will be present tonight!
Because Ji Feng is used to running away for a long time, it is rare for Lakers JKJ and Zen Master to attend the press conference together.
And tonight, these four people are the biggest contributors to the Lakers' victory!
And the first to bear the brunt of it was Ji Feng, who made the last shocking dunk. His steal changed the final trend, and this dunk was really wonderful.
So the reporter first asked Ji Feng: "What did you think when you saw the Spurs change the three starters in one go?"
"I'm thinking, are we over, is it too late to admit defeat now?" Ji Feng was in a good mood, picked up the microphone and made a joke.
After drawing a lot of laughter, he continued: "It's the truth!"
"Pfft haha~" Shen Yang laughed completely, Ji Feng is as good as ever, he can always burst out golden sentences, it's no wonder that he is so popular with the media here.
Kobe and Gasol around him also laughed together, Kobe even echoed: "He told me this, I stopped him, otherwise the game might end 48 minutes early!"
This time, Ji Feng is also happy~
"Okay, I know you don't believe it." Ji Feng spread his hands innocently: "I was actually surprised at the time, but then I thought it was normal. Popovich is a great coach. It's normal to have some black technologies. You see, they played really well, but it's okay, we got through."
"Ji Feng, what do you think about the last dunk? That's the free throw line!" The Los Angeles Sports News reporter got up and asked.
"I didn't think too much about it at the time, I was actually more concerned about the previous steal, when Kobe limited Manu, his position was not good, it gave me a chance, you know, I'm very persistent about steals, so I As for the dunk, there are two All-Stars chasing after me, so I am very motivated!" Ji Feng said with a smile.
"As for the free-throw line, I didn't know until after the dunk. My first reaction was, my God, I actually dunked in. It's okay, otherwise the Zen master would have to punish me for sitting on the bench!" Ji Feng said. It looks like it's a lingering fear, and it feels as if something really happened...
"Hahaha~!" The scene continued to be joyful.
"This kid~" The Zen master smiled and shook his head. This guy is so good at coping with this kind of situation, but he doesn't want to come. It seems that he really has to sit on the bench!
"Mr. Jackson, you were behind by 13 points in the second quarter. At that time, you didn't change to Ji Feng until the sixth minute. Was it a special tactical arrangement?" New York Sports Illustrated asked many people's doubts.
Many people are very curious. Strictly speaking, the return of the king in the second quarter in six minutes was the turning point of the whole game, which marked the complete failure of the Spurs Yuduka tactics.
"Of course! Ji Feng told me at that time that he needed to rest in order to play better, and it turned out that he did it," said the Zen master.
Ji Feng scratched his head, the Zen master threw a good hand, and sure enough, the reporter aimed at Ji Feng again.
"Yeah! That's right! I'm young and have a strong recovery ability! Yuduka did a great job, but I recovered!" Ji Feng didn't hide it, he said directly, anyway, they couldn't guess that buddy had this bug in the system!
Then reporters set their sights on Kobe and Gasol, and then the 45-minute press conference finally ended.
Back in the locker room, Zen Master announced that they would gather tomorrow morning to fly directly to San Antonio to prepare for G3 and G4. As we all know, San Antonio is not easy to play. Even if the Lakers are 2-0, they will not be careless.
Fortunately, they still had time to sleep all night. Ji Feng went home and fell asleep. This game was really exhausting.
The game is over, but the news of this game is still fermenting, and it is naturally the data of the two teams that bear the brunt!
In this game, the two sides changed the way of attacking in the first game, and instead fought a defensive battle. The 90 points created the Lakers’ lowest score in the playoffs this season, but fortunately their defense was equally strong, and the Spurs’ score was limited to 86. point.
The shooting percentage of the two teams is not low. The Lakers have 45% and the Spurs are 44%. The difference is very small.
This proves that the rhythm of this game is really slow and the intensity of confrontation is also very high. The Lakers scored only 6 points on the fast break, and the Spurs followed with 2 points. Almost all of the points came from the positional battle.
Personally, Kobe scored a game-high 25 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks in this game, and his performance was very comprehensive.
Ji Feng's score is not high, only 20 points, but he has 13 assists, 8 rebounds and 3 steals. The quasi-triple-double data is normal, but Ji Feng's role is not only the appearance of the data, his defense, Running has created too much trouble for the Spurs.
And Gasol got 19 points and 10 rebounds in the paint, and Bynum is not there, his pressure is still great.
The Lakers mainly scored on JKJ, others scored very scattered, and no one scored in double figures.
The same is true for the Spurs. Duncan has 21 points and 12 rebounds, Gino has 18 points, Parker has 20 points and 6 assists. GDP is still the core of the Spurs. Only Finley scored 13 points and Bonner scored 11 points.
This is the playoffs, and the role of the core is even more obvious here!
It can be seen that the Spurs are still a team with GDP as the core of their offense.
However, this has also become one of the important reasons why people analyze the failure of the Spurs after the game. Of course, GDP is very powerful, but they are really old!
Compared with the youthful JKJ, the Spurs' GDP is a little older, so forget it, the Spurs' backup group is older, which makes them very disadvantaged in the playoffs that require physical strength.
ESPN put forward a hypothesis, that is: "Would it be better if the three old guys of 30, 37 and 38 were not guarding Ji Feng."
The answer is undoubtedly 'YES', at least it can keep up, isn't it?
So many people say that this game is a victory for youth!
