Chapter 1390: Another 3rd Consecutive Championship

Chapter 1,390 Another three consecutive championships, Kobe was stunned! He looked at the basketball in his hand and was speechless for a long time. (Reading novels)

"Take the ball and prove that you can lead the team to victory alone!" Phil Jackson said flatly.

"Coach!" Ma Long and others were anxious. At this time, should Kobe be allowed to hold the ball alone and play alone? The opponent will definitely deploy heavy troops against Kobe. At this time, it is more important to hand the ball to the person who has the final say - O'Neal.

"You listen to my order. Give the ball to Kobe, just like before." Phil Jackson said calmly.

Malone and Payton looked helpless. Since the coach gave the order, they could only obey the coach's order. What's more, Kobe played very well in this game. Except for the ball just now, which was sneaked by Billups, he almost made all the shots.

Then choose to believe in Kobe! ——Malone and Payton looked at each other.

Of course, O'Neal was naturally sulking on the other end. In the last six minutes of the game, he barely even touched the ball. Now the last shot has to be given to Kobe, which makes him angry. You know, he is the boss of the Lakers.

It is true that he is the boss of the Lakers, but Phil Jackson is the godfather of the Lakers. No matter how unhappy O'Neal is, he can only hold it in for now. After the game is over, go find Mayfair Jackson to discuss it. Of course, that's if Kobe can't make a shot. If the shot goes in, then Phil Jackson's arrangement is correct, and he can't say anything more.

"Hey, referee, is he a player? Why is he on the court now!" O'Neal looked unhappy and turned his attention to the court. Since the game has nothing to do with him, he naturally no longer has to listen to tactics. , not to mention there are no tactics, just pretending to show the Houston Rockets. To prevent the opponent from guessing the tactics and double-teaming Kobe.

As a result, when O'Neal looked at it, he found that Lin Feng, an outsider, jumped onto the court to celebrate with the Houston Rockets. Although you are the owner of the Houston Rockets, as long as you are not a player, even if you are a coach, you are not allowed to play.

At that moment, O'Neill was filled with resentment and took it out on Lin Feng.

"Referee, what is going on? How can he, an outsider, create a god on the field!" O'Neal pointed at Lin Feng and shouted.

The referee was also stunned when he saw it. Jordan's shot just now was too thrilling. Then the Lakers paused and the entire Houston Rockets bench was in a state of excitement. He was also discussing Jordan's shot with the assistant referee, so he didn't notice Lin Feng actually appearing on the court.

A whistle! ——The referee pointed at Lin Feng——out!

Lin Feng heard the whistle,

Suddenly I realized that I was too excited and actually rushed onto the court to celebrate. He immediately apologized to the referee. But I don’t know if the referee saw Lin Feng’s celebration being too arrogant, or if he was favoring the Los Angeles Lakers and pointed directly at the free throw line. A technical foul was awarded to the Houston Rockets - one free throw! The Los Angeles Lakers currently have the right to attack, so it is only one free throw.

But now the Houston Rockets are only one point ahead of the Los Angeles Lakers. If they make free throws, it will be a tie. Then the Los Angeles Lakers still have the right to attack, which is not good. You know, in this case, Kobe can be a god and shoot with confidence. In that case, Jordan's risky three-point shot just now would be meaningless.

You know, on that shot just now, Jordan could have gone straight to the basket, received Billups' pass, and scored a layup. That gives you the best chance. But Jordan still chose to shoot a three-pointer in the open, just to lead the Lakers by one point. As a result, the referee gave Lin Feng a technical foul, which is a bit unjustifiable.

Lin Feng's face dropped immediately.

"Referee, I'm not a player, I'm just a fan. It makes no sense for you to call me a technical foul!" Lin Feng approached the referee and said coldly.

The referee on duty became upset when he heard this. Although this penalty is indeed a bit nonsensical. After all, although Lin Feng is the owner of the Houston Rockets, he is not a player or a coach after all. He is not qualified to judge Lin Feng. Just now, my mind was a little distracted. I saw Lin Feng being an eyesore on the court, so I blew the whistle without thinking. I felt a little regretful at first and wanted to find a balance later, although it was a bit difficult with 7 seconds left. But he was not happy with Lin Feng's current questioning method.

"Out!" The referee pointed to the outside.

Lin Feng was even more unhappy.

"I said you are being unreasonable and unreasonable. Is there any express law in the NBA that authorizes you to punish a fan?" Lin Feng was not a person who was afraid of getting into trouble. He pointed at the referee and asked for an explanation.

hiss! Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect Lin Feng to confront the referee head-on like this. You know, according to convention, even if the referee is wrong, he is still right. At most, you can go to the league to ask for an explanation afterwards, rather than asking the referee to change the decision on the spot. This will undoubtedly anger the referee even more.

Especially since Lin Feng is the owner of the Houston Rockets, it is definitely not a wise choice to anger the referee like this. Head coach Tomjanovich quickly came up to pull Lin Feng.

"Boss, the consequences of offending the referee will be very serious. Even if the penalty is changed in this game, the Houston Rockets will still have shoes to wear in the future." Tomjanovich had to dissuade Lin Feng for long-term considerations. Even if the current penalty is extremely unfavorable to the Houston Rockets, it is likely to affect the Houston Rockets' entry into the playoffs. But for the future of the Houston Rockets, I can only endure it.

After all, Lin Feng is the owner of the Houston Rockets. If Lin Feng contradicts the referee like this, the referee will naturally have nothing to do with Lin Feng, but he can create trouble for the Houston Rockets.

However, Lin Feng was relentless and pestered the referee for an explanation. Although Lin Feng was also worried that the referee community would unite against the Houston Rockets afterwards, Lin Feng was not afraid. Because the team had David Stern's "godson" - James LeBron, the best international player to promote the NBA - Yao Ming, and Jordan. The existence of these people must be taken into consideration by Stern, and he could not let the referee do whatever he wanted.

Therefore, the existence of these players is the confidence of Lian Yintian.

"If you don't give me an explanation, I won't stand. You don't want me to ruin this wonderful game directly! In that case, I'm afraid David Stern will not let you go!" Lin Feng said coldly.

The referee was so angry at Lin Feng's words that his face turned blue and he trembled and couldn't speak. You must know that Lin Feng is the richest man in the world, and his reputation in the United States is not very good. He has always been vindictive. For this reason, he offended Lin Feng to death, and the referee didn't want to do this for such a small amount of money. However, the dignity of the referee must be maintained.

At the critical moment, someone came forward to save the referee!

"As the owner of the Houston Rockets, you interfered with the game at a critical moment. It is not excessive to penalize the Houston Rockets with a technical foul for this behavior." At this time, David Stern had to stand up. Otherwise, such a wonderful game would become a farce if the fuss continued. Moreover, he must maintain the authority of the referee in front of the public at any time. Otherwise, the authority of the referee is not protected, let alone protecting the interests of the league.

"I'm sorry, Mr. David Stern, although I am the owner of the Houston Rockets, as far as this game is concerned, I am just a fan, a very ordinary fan! Although my behavior is inappropriate, the fans' behavior should not be blamed on the team. This is unfair. Especially at such a critical moment, the game should be handed over to the players and let the players decide the course of the game. Otherwise, such a wonderful game will be ruined." Lin Feng shrugged.

Shocked! Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect Lin Feng to be so ostentatious that even David Stern didn't give him a bit of face.

But this is not Lin Feng's fault. This hairpin directly affects whether the team can enter the finals, and also affects the bet between Lin Feng and Barkley. How can Lin Feng not be nervous? Moreover, according to Lin Feng's understanding, there is no penalty for non-players and coaches in the NBA. Of course, if you bombard the referee like Mavericks owner Cuban, you must be punished. But at most, it is only a monetary penalty, which actually does not cause any loss to the team.

But this punishment directly affects the fate of the Houston Rockets. Do you think Lin Feng should be anxious?

"In short, no matter who you are at the moment, you rushed to the court to affect the game. The referee's penalty must be executed! Mr. Lin, if you continue to make trouble, it will only be useless and will not change any results. Instead, it may be bad." David Stern warned Lin Feng not to continue making trouble, otherwise it would not be good for the Houston Rockets.

Lin Feng frowned, thought about it, and slowly retreated.

The game started again.

Kobe went to the free throw line, and with the cheers of Staples fans, he made the free throw and tied the score. At the same time, the Lakers still had the offensive ball, and there were only 7 seconds left in the game.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the game was in turmoil again.

A Los Angeles Lakers fan suddenly rushed to the scene and gave Kobe a bear hug before everyone was prepared.

"Come on, Kobe, you are the best! Can you sign on my back and write 'Dedicated to the most fanatical Lakers fan'." The fanatical Lakers fan excitedly lifted his clothes to expose his back.

Wow! It's lively now. Just now, Lin Feng was fined a technical foul for making trouble. Now the Lakers fans are making trouble again. How will the referee judge?

The referee was a little dumbfounded. His penalty just now was unreasonable and impulsive. And now, how should he judge the Lakers fans' disturbance? A slight mistake will cause an uproar.

"Mr. Stern, I think we should treat everyone equally!" Lin Feng's faint voice came.

David Stern frowned.

Damn it, this Lakers fan must have been arranged by you. You are deliberately embarrassing the league, aren't you! -- David Stern glanced at Lin Feng in annoyance. He was sure that this fan was arranged by Lin Feng, and was deliberately embarrassing the NBA, just to respond to his previous remarks.

Tough boy, aren't you afraid that the league will give you a hard time in the future! -- David Stern muttered in his heart. Since he became the president of the NBA, he has never seen such a person who dares to challenge the league. If it were any other team, hum, wait for the referee to cry next season. Unfortunately, the Houston Rockets are the team that Stern supports.

James-LeBron, Yao Ming, Wade, these are all newcomers that Stern is going to promote, and if he gives the Houston Rockets a hard time, he will give them a hard time. This is undoubtedly a headache for David Stern.

Damn it, did he see through this, so he dared to challenge my patience again and again! "David Stern looked at Lin Feng, his teeth itching with hatred.

But there was no other way, he had to give Lin Feng an explanation now. Otherwise, he would definitely come to make trouble with the Lakers fans. You know, this guy doesn't have much else, but he has a lot of money. If this guy is really pissed off and makes him fight with the league, then today's game will be a real tragedy.

Not to mention much, as long as Lin Feng gives the fans at the scene $10,000, it is guaranteed that someone will come to make trouble. You know, although these fans are very loyal to the Los Angeles Lakers, this loyalty also has a price. In the face of absolute interests, there is nothing that cannot be sold out. Unless you don't have the opportunity to sell out.

Think about it, there are 18,997 fans at the scene. If Lin Feng really goes crazy and lets the fans come to make trouble one by one, this game may not be finished until next year.

In desperation, David Stern gave the referee on duty a look, asking him to find a balance for the Houston Rockets and give the Los Angeles Lakers a technical foul.

The Houston Rockets suddenly became a sea of ​​joy, while the entire Staples Center was filled with curses, both cursing the referee and the fan who made trouble. But the fan had already run away without a trace.

As for Kobe, who had just finished his free throw, he was inexplicably relieved. Perhaps he didn't want Jordan to lose the game like this!

"Hmph, you want to defend the authority of the referee, go to hell. Don't even think about messing with my team in front of me!" Lin Feng glared at the referee on duty with contempt. As for David Stern, Lin Feng didn't blame him. If everyone changed positions, he would also support the referee like David Stern.

Amid the boos of the audience, Jordan made a free throw, and the Houston Rockets still led the Los Angeles Lakers by one point. The ball was back in the hands of the Lakers again.

A whistle blew, and the game started again. After the farce just now, the atmosphere in the Staples Center became more tense! Now there are 7 seconds left in the game. Who will execute the last attack of the Lakers' offense?

Is it still Kobe who almost beat Jordan? Or O'Neal who has been silent for a long time?

The answer was soon revealed. After serving the ball in the middle circle, Kobe got the ball in the first time.

"Kobe, come on. Let me see how good you are! Can your personal skills overwhelm teamwork!" Jordan hooked his finger at Kobe.

"Hmph, Michael, wake up! This time, I will definitely drive you into the abyss!" Kobe's eyes flashed with coldness.

Kobe moved! In these 7 seconds, he showed all his strength and exerted his personal skills to the limit.

At the last second of the countdown, Kobe shot.

"Jordan, block me!" Kobe yelled.

Jordan stood there, looking at Kobe who was rising from the ground without any reaction. Kobe's series of fake moves just now had completely stunned Jordan, and his body could no longer keep up with Kobe's rhythm, but the Houston Rockets won this game.

Because a huge figure jumped up from behind Jordan, and the big palm like a palm fan stretched out to the basketball that Kobe shot into the air-Yao Ming!

When Kobe executed the last attack, Jordan ordered James, Yao Ming, Billups, Boozer and others to help defend. In defense, Jordan also deliberately led Kobe to other players. Therefore, when Kobe shot the last ball, he was already close to Yao Ming.

Yao Ming was behind Jordan, using his height and arm length to slam Kobe's shot away!

Beautiful block!

The entire Staples Center was dead silent. No one thought that the Houston Rockets would win the game!

Did I lose? -- Kobe looked at the basketball bouncing on the floor with great frustration.
