Seeing Zhang Hao's pick-and-roll, he didn't choose to drag the mid-range shot into overtime, and saw Zhang Hao pushing the ball out of his little expression on his face and smiled upwards... When the ball flew over his head, Ma Long did not look up or turn to see if he entered or not. The violent cheers burst out from the fans at the scene explained everything!

The postman is on holiday on weekends!

Depressed, desperate, unwilling to accept...but helpless.

It has been 12 years since I entered the NBA. It is not the first time that I have played twice before. This time, just like the previous two times, my progress has stopped here again.

Zhang Hao scored 5 points in a row at the critical moment, and made a buzzer-beating three-pointer. The Lakers eliminated the Jazz 4-2 and advanced to the finals!

At this moment, Malone remembered the legendary superstar, four-time scoring champion, and many times. The dazzling legendary superstar George Gerwen said when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame last summer and was a regret for my life, but this is the world of basketball. I have a great career, but I can only call it the embellishment next to those most dazzling people... Looking back now, it was also a good experience.

A good experience?

Not bad!

Ma Long was very unwilling to give up! Looking at the 20-year-old young man who was surrounded by his teammates who had a calm look on his face after entering the final kill, he chose to turn around and leave.

He doesn't want to accept his fate like George Gervin. This year, I won't be able to do it. I'll come back next time!

On the other hand, after Zhang Hao made a three-pointer, he received the system prompt "Flazed Wings Target 3" and completed, and Ma Long's elbow was upgraded to get the upgrade!

The excitement of his teammates infected Zhang Hao, but he couldn't lose his style, so he tried hard to maintain a calm expression.

I have to say that this is very arrogant, and my teammates are thinking that if they are Zhang Hao's opponent, they will definitely want to hit people at this moment.

But the opponent is stimulated... it doesn't matter to his teammates, and he still thinks that Zhang Hao should do this.

The reporters also poured into the court after the referee confirmed that the three-pointer was valid and confirmed that the Lakers won.

Zhang Hao was invited to be interviewed after the game. When asked about leading the team to the finals at the age of 20, he replied: "It's not that I am leading the team, but that I and my teammates are entering the finals. I am very excited now. I don't know how lucky I am to have such a group of teammates."

This is a very good answer, and I didn't respond to the reporters, but at this moment, the reporters didn't want to continue asking.

Looking at Zhang Hao's face without any expression... You said you are excited?

The reporters thought about it and asked the subtitle group to type a word next to Zhang Hao's face when they dialed out. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to see it...

...

...

After 6 years, the Lakers and the Bulls will face each other in the finals again!

The Lakers Magician is still smiling on the court, and the Bulls Jordan is still the best player in the world, as if everything is like the beginning of the 1990s...

After the victory and defeat of the Western Conference Finals were decided, the old fans were having fun!

Zhang Hao has a good influence among the new generation of fans, and has attracted countless fans until now in this year's playoffs; O'Neal and Kenny Anderson are also very popular among the Middle Ages fans; Barkley, Wilkins...especially the Magicians have a huge influence among the old fans.

Many main fans in the 1980s rarely watch football after entering the 1990s. The peak period of a fan is only about 10 years, but now, they are preparing to re-release the remote control and watch the finals!

Apart from these, the Lakers alone made it a sensational event.

It is really not surprising that the Lakers' lineup will enter the finals. It is not surprising that the Lakers' lineup will enter the finals. There is also a reason why the new team that has just formed has the opportunity to try and make mistakes.

But from the beginning, not many media have concluded that the Lakers can enter the finals. The Supersonics are the biggest favorite in the West in the finals, and the runner-up last year; the Jazz's performance this year is outrageously stable, winning the West's first place in the regular season and being the second most popular in the West's finals.

The Lakers are only ranked third, and when the regular season ranking is determined, the Lakers are detested because they are unlucky and ranked second in the West, and they need to defeat the Supersonics and Jazz in a row to enter the finals...

If the Lakers really don't make it to the finals, they will definitely be scolded for being scolded, and the lineup looks extremely domineering.

However, not many people think they can go to the end.

But they really did it!

This Western Conference Final was rated as the most classic Western Conference Final by the media and experts, retired celebrities active in the commentator camp.

This round of the Western Conference Finals was so exciting. From the first game, the ratings remained high, breaking the highest ratings of this season's single-round series, which was previously maintained by the Knicks and the Heat, with a paid rating of nearly 18 million times per game.

There were many accidents in this round of series, first of all, the fight. The Knicks and the Heat were both restrained and did not start to fight. The Lakers and the Jazz started to fight first.

The Lakers personnel suffered a loss in the fight, but they finally won!

The scene of Zhang Hao being a vicious offender in O'Neal and Barkley returning to the court in order to stand up for his teammates to change O'Neal's No. 36 jersey has become a great moment in the minds of many people.

The ups and downs of the subsequent series were also something that no one expected during the Western Conference Finals. They thought that sometimes the Lakers won the home court, even if they lost in the second game, they might have made a 4-1 move in one go, but the Jazz took back the home advantage and ended the first 4 games 2-2.

When the Jazz regained their advantage, Barkley, who was suspended for one game in the first game, completed his self-salvation in Game 5, leading the team to turn the tables from adversity and win the battle of Tianwang Mountain.

In the 6th game, Zhang Hao scored 29 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, including 12 points in the last quarter, making a final shot, helping the Lakers eliminate the Jazz at home with a 94-93...

The most dazzling thing in the entire series is Zhang Hao, who was suspected of not being able to maintain regular season performance in the playoffs before the start of this year's playoffs, and even before the second round of the series with the Supersonics!

In last year's playoffs, Zhang Hao's performance was indeed average, and the Lakers were completely abused by the Rockets in the second round.

There are more and more powerful stars in the regular season. Most of these stars cannot maintain their regular season performance in the playoffs. Zhang Hao, who is only 20 years old, has a very high evaluation of his performance in the regular season, but in the playoffs, he will inevitably be questioned.

Then, Zhang Hao became stronger and stronger...45 points, 23 points, 22 points, 27 points, points, 29 points. This is Zhang Hao's scoring performance in 6 games, averaging 27.3 points per game, second only to Ma Long's average of 30.3 points per game.

There was 45 points in one game, and Zhang Hao's average score was still lower than Ma Long. Ma Long played 4 games and 30+ in 6 games, and Zhang Hao had only 1 game. The stability gap is not easy to show in the regular season. In the playoffs, Ma Long showed stability far stronger than Zhang Hao.

However, Zhang Hao is not as stable as Ma Long. At the critical moment, Ma Long can’t beat Zhang Hao!

Zhang Hao and Malone represent the characteristics of the two teams very well. The Lakers have a lack of performance in the playoffs and have a fierce outburst. The media's evaluation is really correct.

The Jazz are as stable as Malone.

But the Jazz's success and failure are stable, with more stability and insufficient bursts. This is the Jazz's shortcomings.

It can be seen from the Western Conference Finals that in terms of stable strength, the Jazz may be a point stronger than the Bulls, but why is the Jazz so much worse in the regular season record than the Bulls? The question is that when the Bulls are only one point worse than the Jazz, the Bulls also have Michael Jordan, who can raise the team's upper limit and lead the team to play stronger. Over the course of a season, there are always some games that need to be handled by key balls. The Bulls can always do better than the Jazz, so the Bulls also have 6 more games than the Jazz.

But this is still not a fatal problem for the Jazz in the Western Conference Finals. The Jazz's key ball handling in the entire Western Conference Finals is simply eye-catching!

Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals was simply a representative work of the Jazz's key goal. In the last 38 seconds, one turnover and two free throws were all in. With a 4-point lead, he gave the victory to the Lakers.

The Jazz's problem of losing the chain at critical moments. More than this one of the entire series. When Zhang Hao broke out in the third quarter of the first game, the Jazz made a mistake in response. After Stockton was skipped by Zhang Hao from the head, Stockton steadily missed the shooting; in the fourth game, the Jazz made two consecutive mistakes at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers directly opened the score difference 5-0 to double-digits and set the victory in the beginning; in the fifth game, facing Barkley's rampage, the Jazz made a mistake in the selection of the team, and Barkley got 4 assists to connect the Lakers' offense...

In the words of Bill Walton, the Jazz are devoting their best to the entire round to achieve Zhang Hao's performance like a god descending to earth in the last 38 seconds of the 6th game!

...

On the night when the Lakers advanced to the finals, the news was reporting on Zhang Hao's key ball performance and the famous scenes of Zhang Hao in this Western Conference Finals.

Online, the two topics mentioned by the TV host and commentator about the Western Conference Finals were the two most common topics. The first was the empty link that Zhang Hao flew over Stockton.

No one said that before, but now, this dunk is called a "death dunk", announcing the Jazz's dream of winning another death.

Another thing is what Zhang Hao said to Ma Long before Ma Long's second free throw. The commentator also guessed what Zhang Hao said in the middle of the game, but he didn't guess that the main topic of the media interview last night was about reaching the finals, about winning the finals, and about the opponent Bulls.

At that time, the director cut the lens very quickly and there were close-ups.

Netizens are omnipotent. The media have not yet interpreted what Zhang Hao said through lip reading. Netizens interpreted it online first.

"The postman doesn't go to work on weekends." After Zhang Hao said this, Ma Long decisively made a second penalty and made a fuss... This trash talk became popular!

On the second day, the discussion about the Lakers and Bulls meeting in the finals became even higher.

The media and experts must analyze the strength of the two teams, lineup comparison...and so on.

The most important thing is the current performance of the players of the two teams, and the most intuitive performance of the players of the two teams in the division finals.

In this Western Conference Final, except for Zhang Hao, the others in the Lakers have made a lot of contributions. Judging from the overall situation, Zhang Hao's role has not widened the gap with other teammates.

Barkley still leads the team to win without the core, does not have the right to take the first shot, or even is not, and plays a big role in every game he plays.

O'Neal's serious defensive performance made the media criticize the head coaches of the league team for not giving O'Neal the best defensive lineup votes to O'Neal, although they did not think of O'Neal when voting for the best defensive player. They averaged 7 points, 13.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 3.5 blocks per game in the Western Conference Finals. In addition to defense, O'Neal also took on the inside restraint and necessary singles.

Kenny Anderson excellently commanded the regular time style of major stars. Although he averaged only 11.3 points per game, he was defended badly, and his assists were not high, and his average of 6.5 assists per game, he did a good job of stably allocating the ball. If he had similar combat power in theory, Van Exel, who was also an All-Star, probably had a long mess in the Lakers' offense. When playing Payton, some media said that he was not as good as Van Exel, but when playing against the Jazz, he showed his advantages.

Doug Christie performed best in this round of the series on the outside defense and open shooting. Byron Scott, Magic, Wilkins, Jeromy Colsey, the four veterans also played an important role...

After winning the Western Conference Finals, Lakers players received good reviews, which were completely different from the Jazz who lost. Even if the Jazz were stable 95% of the time in 6 games.

The Lakers' performance was praised, but in the live broadcast of the commentator roundtable the next morning, most commentators were more optimistic that the Bulls would win the championship.

There was a topic that was not mentioned by the media before. When the Lakers reached the finals, they were mentioned that the Lakers' role player lineup could not keep up with the core players' running-in progress.

The core of the Lakers' ability to reach the finals is that they rely on the more tacit cooperation and excellent cooperation of several major stars. At this time, the structural problems of the role players are also exposed.

It’s not that it’s not good enough, but that it’s not like the Jazz team that has been working with for many years. The Jazz role players have a much higher level of playing style with the core combination than the Lakers.

The Bulls have the same advantage over the Lakers.

The Bulls' stable strength is just the same as the Jazz, but the handling of key balls and the performance of anxious moments are stronger than the Jazz!

The advantage in terms of explosions, the Lakers are gone against the Bulls...

...

...

"Jason, please try to prevent me from playing back? I have improved my strength recently... Hey, don't leave!"

Looking at Jason Williams' ruthlessly leaving, Zhang Hao felt very hurt...

We have reached the finals. On June 6th, the day after tomorrow, the finals will start and the first game will be played in Chicago.

The Lakers did not go to Chicago immediately. The Western Conference Finals were so fierce that the coaching staff did not have time to discuss and study how to play. Let's stay in Los Angeles for a day today, which is more convenient to investigate various data.

In fact, it is necessary to go to the away game in advance to get familiar with the environment and adjust the game mentality. The effect may not be worse than training for more than one day. However, the teams that advanced later do not have home advantage and played more compactly in the last round, so they will always have disadvantages.

The Lakers coaching staff are now very grateful to the Heat for 1 extra game, and the Bulls are just advancing one day earlier than their Lakers.

The coaching staff needs time to formulate strategies well, and the players also need time to rest well. In their current situation, going away the day before the game is the best choice.
