821 We are also united

In the last quarter, there were more and more vacant spaces in the Staples Arena, and many fans left the court disappointed.

However, the Lakers did not give up on themselves.

The Warriors were blocked by Gasol as soon as they made a layup at the beginning. Fisher, the old fish, suddenly returned to their original situation. He cleverly planned a long-distance cooperation. Odom quickly entered the penalty area, and the old fish made a very long pass through the half-court distance.

Odom took the ball very quickly and hit it

The Zen master finally gave up and started playing in a small lineup. Gasol reached the center position, and Odom and Artest went to control the forward line.

Afterwards, Fisher broke through the baseline and passed the ball, Kobe returned the ball again. Fisher entered the penalty area and made a shot under Chamberlain's nose, fully proving the most dangerous and safest place.

The Lakers began to counterattack, but at this time, Chamberlain was blown up again for a violation of the rules. He took the ball and wanted to crush Gasol. As a result, the latter suddenly retreated. He couldn't hold back his inertia for a while, so he took a step and was blown up by Crawford, who had been staring at him.

Although the score gap is still 15 points, the Lakers are very patient. They quickly attacked the frontcourt and found that the Warriors had arranged defensive tactics, so they kept passing the ball.

Finally, in the last two seconds, Fisher's open opportunity came. He almost shot with a buzzer and hit a three-pointer, which suddenly stretched the score gap to 2 points.

There are still 10 minutes left, and the score difference is 2 points. This is not an exaggerated score difference, and the outcome is hard to say.

Old Nelson made a quick decision to ask for a timeout, took out a tactical board, deploying a series of tactics on it.

When returning to the court again, the Warriors played very patiently, which allowed Chamberlain to seek opportunities in the inside, open the outside, and Ibaka supported him. The Lakers, which lacked height and strength in the inside, had no choice but to do anything about this tactic.

With Chamberlain taking action, the Warriors scored two points steadily.

Fifteen seconds later, Chamberlain rushed into the basket with West. The two cooperated and passed the ball twice in a row. Finally, Chamberlain handed the ball to West again and helped him block Gasol who was changing defense. West made a dunk.

The two sides were entangled until the last three minutes, and the Warriors still kept the score difference at 15 points. At this time, the Zen master finally announced that he would give up the game and replace Kobe with the stadium.

When Kobe left the scene, there was no expression on his face, and his eyes were flashing with a cold light, as if it was a piece of iron.

Chamberlain was in a flame. He greeted every teammate and joked loudly with the caddies. There were close-range fans asking him to sign, but he didn't refuse. He picked up a pen and started dancing.

After winning this game, the Warriors got the initiative again, and their home court advantage was theirs again.

At the end of the game, the California Sports News ran overnight. The unconventional media ignored the day before that they were still advocating Kobe's invincibility. This time, it was renamed "The Warriors Conquered Los Angeles, Chamberlain Makes Kobe Faceless".

The media is afraid that the relationship between the two teams is too good, so they use whatever words are sensitive.

In this game, Chamberlain played for 43 minutes, scored -l points, 2l rebounds, and 9 assists. He was only one assist away and could set his first triple-double record in the division final.

Chamberlain was very frank about this. He still had opportunities. Now let his teammates show their sensation. He will dominate the field in the next few seasons.

If Chamberlain insists on being there in the last three minutes, it will be fine for him to get an assist, but what's the need?

The Warriors won a game back and led the Western Conference Finals with 2丨. In the East, the third game also began the next day. The Magic had lost two games in a row, and now Cleveland is looking forward to their 40 sweep.

As a result, Howard finally made a big stride and won a victory after returning to home court.

In this game, both core members of the Magic woke up, Dwight Howard had 2 points, 6 rebounds and Jamal Nelson's 20 points and 14 assists, defeating James's 3 points to win.

Because of returning to home, Howard changed his hardship in the previous two games. At the post-match press conference, he said confidently: "Now, we have overwhelmed each other in momentum, and all we have to do is to maintain this momentum so that we can win the final victory."

When the Magic lost two games in a row, almost no one believed that they could create miracles, but judging from this game, if they can maintain their home effect in the next game, it would be no big problem to play 22.

Nelson Jr., the team's second-ranked figure, excitedly told reporters: "The situation has changed. We hope to create history and believe that we can win this round of series."

Compared to the Warriors and the Lakers' bayonets, the Magic and the Cavaliers' game was like wrestling. The Little Emperor's former guard Valaijo suffered technical fouls on Howard twice in a row, and was sent off halfway through the game.

The most unlucky thing is that when he beat Howard in the fourth quarter, he was hit by a monster on his face, causing a concussion. It is still unknown whether he can play in the next game.

There is also Mo Williams, who also had a concussion, and the initiator was still Howard.

When he learned about this, Chamberlain almost laughed and said, "Damn the two teams in the East?" Are the gangsters fighting? Howard was too cruel. He thought it was too much to hurt Bynum, but he was already gentle enough to compare with Howard's opponent's concussion when he swung his elbow twice.

Howard's two elbows pushed him to the forefront. Cavaliers fans directly called him the "Orlando Butcher," and the media mostly criticized him, "This is the field, not the slaughterhouse."

Howard was still very aggrieved and explained: "Our original intention was not to hurt others, but basketball is a fierce sport. Let people play very hard, so we cannot show weakness."

The explanation is useless, and because of the competition between Howard and Chamberlain, he is not very popular in China. Some fans specially made a video and posted it on YLTOBF, which was called "Huo Jiaquan."

The video uses the song of the same name by Jay Chou as background music. The video selected Howard's elbow strike or boxing opponent's small movements that started in high school. It is often close to five minutes. After it appears, it is very popular and topped the VUTCE daily click ranking.

The Cavaliers are much more elegant. James said in an interview: "After the first two rounds of the playoffs, we relaxed our vigilance a little. The victory of the first two games once again made us relax our vigilance, which made us pay a heavy price. Fortunately, we woke up in time. I believe that small moves can only win for a while, not for a lifetime, so we believe that we will still stand on the battlefield in the finals."

As one of the biggest mouthers, O'Neal naturally couldn't shut up. He pushed the little emperor and said: "We believe we can win this series. They just won one game, just like stealing a victory Goliath in front of David, and the next game will be back on track. In addition, the pressure is still on the other side, they have to be prepared, and after two games, they can go home."

The division final is a feast. Not only is the game exciting, but fans prefer to see players quarrel.

Among the active players, one person seems too quiet, and that is the other protagonist, Carter.

Carter's performance in the first two rounds of the playoffs was OK, but his performance in the Eastern Conference Finals was too poor. The Magic team broke out in this game, but Carter made one of nine shots and only scored - points.

The Magic's old H6 Richard Via held another high-level meeting. The blonde black silk secretary sorted out Carter's performance in the Eastern Conference Finals. DeVos glanced at the meeting and threw it on the ground in anger:

"Is this the number one shooting guard in the Eastern Conference? The half-man and half-god? Damn it, are you kidding me? Who insisted that I sign Carter? It's a salary of 20 million a year, he's?"

DeVos' roar recalled in the conference room, and Stan Van Gundy sighed in his heart. The old man's health care method is good. His voice and lung capacity are a pity. He doesn't cheer for the team at home.

It’s not that DeVos is angry, Carter’s performance is indeed too unsatisfactory.

The Magic team was sluggish before, and Carter's performance was still a bit awful. In this game, the Magic team performed slightly normal, which made Carter have a big problem.

Carter became a failure for the Magic, and the scenes of failures are everywhere, especially in the last quarter.

In the fourth quarter of this game, Carter made his debut again. At that time, the Magic withstood the Celtics counterattack and gained a 4-point advantage. But just after Carter came on the court, he first wasted an open position - point, and then an offensive foul, a pass mistake, helped the Celtics to have a small climax, and while tying the score, he also played a stunning momentum.

After experiencing this influence, Carter was completely depressed. He didn't even dare to take action during the offense. He could only follow simply in defense, and his mental power was quite inconcentrated.

With the game left - minutes left, Carter was substituted. At that time, Carter's expression was the same as the Lakers' substitute for Kobe, as hard as a piece of steel, but Kobe won the applause of the whole audience, and Carter only booed.

Van Gundy is actually very optimistic about Carter. He knows Carter's firepower very well. As long as he can find confidence and regain his touch, he is still the Magic's most powerful and fierce gun on the outside.

In this way, Carter made another appearance with 1 minute and 33 seconds left in the game. They were leading by 2 points at that time; but then Carter "released" the defense again, and was suddenly passed by Pierce, who made a layup at the basket and won a foul, tying the score.

In the overtime minute, it was Carter again. He made a low-level mistake when he was rarely defending Pierce, but luckily Pierce did not hit the shot. The luckier one was naturally the Magic's Howard, Nelson broke out in overtime one after another, otherwise Carter's pizza could only be described as a nightmare.

These contents were sorted into DeVIS's file folder, which is also the reason why DeVIS was angry.

Jacques Vaughn finally summarized Carter's performance and said: "Since entering the Eastern Conference Finals, in addition to a slight rebound in the first game, Carter has performed mediocrely in the remaining two games, especially his lack of passing characteristics has greatly affected the operation of our team. We all know that Tekoglu likes passing, and we also need someone who likes passing."

"In addition, in this game, Carter was timid in defense and became the breakthrough point for Ray Allen and Pierce. In offense, he always needed to play with the ball, which repeatedly broke the momentum that our team had just established. If he could not change the playing style of playing with the ball, which is incompatible with our team in the next game, the team's prospects would still not be optimistic."

Vaughn's words made Smith, Martins, Van Gundy and others very unhappy. Are you trying to stimulate us on purpose? I finally won a happy game, but you ran out and disgusted people again?

Van Gundy had a tough temper and said directly: "Even if we don't go far enough this season, we don't want to get Billups because we have the potential to be little Nelson."

Vaughan smiled and said, "Then why not let Nelson and Billups coexist? Obviously, our team does not lack firepower players and inside players. What they lack is the person who can make the ball fly. It is not enough to rely on Nelson alone."

"But Billups and the Warriors still have a contract, so he can't leave just by saying that. Besides, why did the Warriors trade Billups?" Smith retorted.

Vaughan still smiled and said, "It's very simple. As long as Billups is willing to come, the Warriors will let him go. According to my internal news, Billups is already tempted and he is willing to assist Howard. In addition, another factor that makes the Warriors let go is that we can trade Carter."

"Idiot, Carter's contract has expired, and he will be free this summer." CPO Martins sneered.

Vaughn ignored his bad attitude and shrugged, "Sign first and then change, we can sign first and then change, guys."
