Chapter 152 Regional Finals
The next day, Li Ran was lying in bed watching the G6 game between the Lakers and the Mavericks.
There is nothing I can do, my waist is too weak.
Sure enough, back at home, Nowitzki used his performance to force the suspense of the game to the last game.
38 points, 13 rebounds and 2 assists, shooting 66.6% from the field and 50% from the three-point range.
All the Lakers' big men can't stop the explosive German King.
"Let's go to Los Angeles tomorrow."
Li Ran looked at the cheering Mavericks players and put his arms around the beauty in his arms slightly.
"Why?"
"Let's see who loses to us next."
Swift pouted in dissatisfaction, but honestly took out her mobile phone and started booking tickets.
On the third night, the two sat in the front seats of Staples Center.
In front of them is the Lakers' bench.
Kobe arrived very early and was almost the first Laker to come out to warm up.
He immediately saw Li Ran sitting behind his bench.
"Why are you here?"
Then he saw Swift, who was sitting next to Li Ran, looking like a little bird, and he suddenly realized it, and raised his short eyebrows at Li Ran with an expression that every man would understand.
"Let's see who will win the runner-up in the Western Conference." Li Ran said the most unkind words with the kindest expression.
Kobe was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
"I'll just tell you one thing."
"What words?"
"Lakers championship!"
Li Ran felt as if he had traveled ten years later.
These five words would indeed be a joke ten years later, but when spoken by the man in front of me, they seemed deafening.
If I were not here, this year would indeed be your championship.
But now that I'm here, Kobe, I'm sorry.
VENI VIDI VICI!
I come! I see! I conquer!
Li Ran's ambition at this time was just like that of Julius Caesar, and he no longer wanted to hide his desire to rule the NBA.
I've been hiding for a season, so let's use a championship to bring a perfect end to my rookie season.
The two briefly chatted for a few words, and Kobe went back to concentrate on preparing for the game.
Just like Nowitzki did in Dallas, returning to his own territory, Kobe also broke out this night.
In front of tens of thousands of Staples fans, Kobe gave a perfect playoff performance.
42 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals.
The Lakers still had the last laugh in this series, successfully meeting the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals.
Li Ran gently held Swift's slender waist and looked deeply at Kobe, who was celebrating with his teammates on the court.
The war is about to begin, and even Li Ran, who has never felt any pressure, now begins to feel Alexander.
The number 24 standing in the middle of the court is really too strong.
That night, Li Ran and Swift went their separate ways. He wanted to return to Denver to concentrate on preparing for the war.
Swift also promised Li Ran that she would wait for Li Ran to win the championship before looking for him.
The next afternoon, Li Ran appeared in the training hall.
The holiday is not over yet, and the next morning is the time for official training.
But when Li Ran came to the training hall, he saw someone training inside, which surprised him.
Yi Jianlian.
Ah Lian was concentrating on practicing three-pointers when he saw Li Ran come in and stood there holding the ball.
"Didn't you go and relax?" Li Ran walked up to Ah Lian, said hello and asked with a smile.
"No, I'm a little nervous. I'm going to play the Lakers soon. I don't know what will happen then."
Against the Lakers, Yi Jianlian had to face Gasol, which made him a little anxious.
"It doesn't matter, just do what you should do."
Li Ran took the basketball from Ah Lian and stood one step outside the three-point line and opened his hand to shoot.
The ball hits the net hollowly.
Ah Lian looked at the calm Li Ran, and suddenly felt that this compatriot who was several years younger than him had become a little different. He couldn't tell the specific difference at the moment, but he just felt that if Li Ran was on the court, he would feel at ease.
appearance.
George Karl was also in his office at this time.
Like Ah Lian, he didn't go anywhere during the three-day holiday, but concentrated on recharging his energy at home.
After the tiebreaker between the Lakers and the Mavericks last night, he didn't sleep all night. He just squinted for a while in the morning and continued to study the next round of opponents in the office in the afternoon.
He knows very well that whoever can win the Western Conference Finals between the Nuggets and Lakers will have a great chance of winning this year's championship.
The matchups for the Eastern Conference finals have also been announced.
The Magic led by Howard also struggled to defeat the defending champion Celtics, who were missing Garnett, after seven fierce battles.
In the tiebreaker, the Sparks scored 12 points, 16 rebounds and 5 blocks. Coupled with Turkish organization forward Hedo Turkoglu's 28 points, 5 rebounds and 12 assists, the Celtics unfortunately lost.
Throughout the series, Warcraft averaged 16.4 points and 17.1 rebounds per game, surrounded by big babies Glen Davis and Kendrick Perkins.
Without Garnett, the defensive gate that connects the inside and outside, the Celtics simply cannot handle the connection between Howard and the Magic's outside shooters.
Ray Allen became the sinner of this series for the Celtics. After seven games in the series, his total field goal percentage was only a pitiful 34.9%, and his three-point shooting percentage was as low as 14.9%. He averaged more than 6 three-pointers per game.
You can only hit once with a point shot.
Pierce was unable to do anything alone and lost the last chance to win the championship in his career.
The Big Three have reached the end of their careers, and Garnett's athletic ability will definitely decline after returning from a serious injury. The Big Three that shocked the league are no longer in name only.
What awaits Howard in the Eastern Conference Finals is the Cavaliers, who swept the Hawks 4-0 early and have not lost a single game in the playoffs.
James, who also longs for a championship, came into full swing after entering the playoffs, sweeping his opponents in two consecutive rounds.
Sweeping the Pistons 4-0 in the first round, James averaged 32 points, 11 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.5 steals per game.
Sweeping the Hawks 4-0 in the second round, his statistics went even further, reaching 33.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 6.0 assists and 2.5 steals.
The extremely powerful Cavaliers are quietly waiting for the Magic's challenge, vowing to defeat the Magic, advance to the finals, and win the championship that carries the expectations of countless Cleveland fans!
However, not only Kobe, James and Howard are eager to win the championship.
Having reached the conference finals, no one wants to be the loser who falls at the finish line.
The same goes for Anthony.
The next day, after George Karl, whose eyes were red, finished explaining the tactics for the next game, Anthony rarely called all the players together.
Guagua, who was wearing a hoodie, looked solemn.
"Brothers, this year is our most promising year. I don't want to leave regrets until next season. This season, our goal is!"
He stretched out his hand and looked up at his teammates.
The team members also stretched out their hands and put them on his hands.
Li Ran was the last one to put his hand up, and then shouted loudly.
"champion!"
"champion!"
The shouts floated in the training hall and lingered for a long time.
Chapter completed!
