Kenny Smith is an undoubted hard-core loyal fan. He has trusted Li Zhen for a long time, and he has become more and more determined in the fierce battles.
Li Zhen has never let his supporters down. This is Kenny Smith's confidence.
On this point, Charles Barkley has a deep understanding, he not only suffered from this kind of ‘assuming’. So, this is why he changed from a blues black to a blues mi.
After Li Zhen returned to the bench, his expression was calm, he just asked the team doctor Iverson whether his injury was serious.
The team doctor said that he could not give a conclusion for the time being.
This made Li Zhen's brows solemn.
These veterans of Iverson fought to this level and made him a little bit self-blaming, and he thought he could have done better.
Although the Knicks tonight are exceptionally strong, whether it is from the court coordination or the morale of their players, it can be seen that they are at an unprecedented peak tonight.
Li Zhen raised his head and glanced at the time, there were 4 minutes left.
The Knicks giants over there are gearing up.
Li Zhen and James felt the same at this moment... They both tried their best to win the game.
Moreover, they all have reasons not to fail.
Beep!
The whistle sounded and the game continued.
Li Zhen calmly stood in front of LeBron James, followed by Gordon Hayward, Jimmy Barrett, Eddie Griffin, and Millich.
Tonight, Jordan and Blake Griffin were in a bit of a bad state, and Jordan got into foul trouble early.
Therefore, the Clippers' penalty area lineup at the last minute is not theoretically the strongest.
However, from a mental perspective, these four people are the strongest.
In contrast, at a critical moment, the Knicks can't help but rely on their starting lineup, which is the strongest lineup: Although they had a lot of rotations in the game, it looked a lot easier.
However, after all, there is no such easy lifting as the Clippers.
LeBron James launched an impact. He burst out the torque of an F1 car like a tank and pushed forward with a roar. Li Zhen hurriedly defended.
If it was James in the first two seasons, Li Zhen now has a way to defend.
However, James now has a lot of technical content. He can suddenly press the pause button during a quick impact, just like a top defender, and even play a little detail of turning around before the emergency stop.
This time, he was like that.
When Li Zhen stopped in a hurry, his focus was still inevitably backward.
Although at the moment James made a jumper, he used his amazing physical fitness to make up for this defensive passivity and quickly blocked it. However, distance plus time, and the triangle of defense... He did not form an effective defense for this shot.
But bang!
LeBron's basketball missed the basket.
Milicic grabbed Okafor's rush and tried his best to protect the rebound.
Although Milicic played less time this season than last season, his strength has improved. You know, he was the youngest player in the 2003 Super Platinum generation, at the time he was almost one year younger than high school student No. 1 LeBron James. Strictly speaking, he had just turned 18 when he was selected in the draft.
In the past two years, because of the favorable environment, I have recovered my heart. So he finally played the characteristics of a good center in the NBA, offensive, rebounding, coping, shooting, as well as confrontation and defense that European centers rarely have.
Many people regret his excellence. If he was not selected for the Pistons, if he has been in an environment that makes him outstanding, will he become a super center in the new century?
This kind of "if theory" is a kind of praise to him to some extent.
Because those who do nothing, don’t even have a chance to "if".
But looking back, Li Zhen did save the destiny of many players, not to mention the players who were saved because of his phone calls. There are a lot of people who change the mood just by following him.
Not to mention Marbury, Griffin, Randolph and other New York descendants.
Didn't Kwame Brown get rid of the parallel import name just by relying on him?
There is also Swift, the second place in the parallel import rankings. He actually got a long-term contract with an annual salary of tens of millions.
Now coupled with Milicic, Li Zhen can even start a parallel reemployment class.
Poor Greg Oden, if he were to keep a low profile in front of Li Zhen back then, maybe he would be able to come to the Clippers to have a meal. Of course, Oden is basically impossible to return to the NBA because of the Portland team doctor's magical operation. His body structure does not allow him to become a professional player.
This is a huge tragedy for him and for his family.
Closer to home.
Li Zhen received the basketball from Milicic, and when he returned to the front court, he immediately commanded his teammates to pull away.
He chose to play LeBron James' defense alone.
Unlike James’ powerful assault, Li Zhen uses the perfect ball-handling rhythm to play with the center of gravity of the chosen son. His shaking and changing direction are like a college math problem in high school.
While LeBron James is highly focused, he also highly doubts his own judgment.
He is always worried about making the wrong choice.
call out!
Soon, Li Zhen told him that such worries were unnecessary.
Adults, isn't it normal to make wrong choices?
Li Zhen deceived James' eyes with a perfect jitter. While stepping to the right, he quickly hit the basketball to the left, his body completed a beautiful back turn, and then leaned in around James' body.
James hurried to pursue.
Unfortunately, Li Zhen didn't give him time to react. He violently intruded into the paint zone, facing Tai Gibson's defense against Tarzan, and a dunk dunked Tai Gibson with no temper.
There was a sound of fireworks in the Staples Arena.
Fry the pan.
This dunk declared Li Zhen's determination to win this game.
He rarely patted his chest after the goal.
This is a picture that is difficult to capture with a camera, so it is particularly important.
"Bruce is really moving."
Kenny understands the meaning of these actions.
Bruce Lee dunks and slaps his chest at critical moments, which is equivalent to Duncan slapping the floor hard. It's also equivalent to Kevin Garnett... Uh, it's not surprising that Kevin Garnett, a manic sufferer, does what he does. Maybe he will roar out of thin air in his wife's bed, even if he has not taken off his shorts.
He is a man who can pretend to have an **** anytime, anywhere.
LeBron James also knows the meaning of this action. He has played against Li Zhen for many years. Although he loses more and loses less, he can also be regarded as a whip into the observation of Li Zhen, making three points.
Therefore, he can only work harder, worried.
This time, he successfully entered the paint zone and assisted Dwyane Wade.
However, Wade's intention to follow up the layup was seen by Eddie Griffin at a glance. Griffin decisively let go of Chris Bosh and staged the cardinals behind.
When Wade leaped up, Griffin woven a skynet behind him, captured the Flash on the spot, and pushed the basketball from the air.
Although, the referee continued to award the ball to the Knicks.
However, the momentum at home has soared unstoppably.
It doesn't matter if Wade completes the redemption with a stop jumper in the following.
Because in the next round, Li Zhen assisted Eddie Griffin to make a shot from beyond the three-point line.
As Eddie waved his arms in excitement, the entire venue was lit like a fire.
From the scene, the Knicks no longer have the power to reverse the situation.
James and Wade never gave up, they went on to work hard to play their best form.
But... it can't be reversed.
Li Zhen has turned into a dragon, he arbitrarily obstructed the New York giants, suppressing their struggle with his infinite energy and wisdom.
And completely connect the Clippers lineup.
Although the Clippers have been unable to open the score.
But when you come and go, time is consuming.
In the last round, LeBron James missed an adventurous 3-pointer shot, and Hayward got the rebound.
There is no hope at all.
Even if they foul Hayward and send him to the free throw line with 1.8 seconds left, it will not help.
He could only increase Hayward's score from 16 points to 18 for no reason, while also allowing the Clippers' lead from 3 points to 5 points.
Huh!
Dwyane Wade made a shot across the half court.
This is a miracle.
But it can also be said to be a tragedy.
The order of appearance of this 3-pointer was reversed.
If in the last round, they hit 3 points.
So now it's time to play overtime.
Now, they can only sigh with regret... unable to recover.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most perfect finals since the new century.
Two equally well-matched teams played the game to the last minute, and have been conducting offensive and defensive battles at the peak level in NBA history, both defensively and offensively, both sides have achieved the ultimate.
Especially the personal performance of the stars is beyond reproach.
"The New York Knicks lacked a little luck."
Charles Barkley said regretfully after the game.
"Is it just luck?" Kenny Smith shook his head, he didn't approve of the answer.
He thinks that even if you do it again, the Knicks may still lose.
People can sigh with Iverson's previous killer offense and defense, and can praise Jason Kidd's perfect assassination... think these are accidents for the Knicks.
However, time reversed.
Does the Clippers really have no other power to stand up?
Kenny Smith thinks so.
New York fans and the media think no.
No one can convince anyone.
Fortunately, the charm of sports competition is that they always have a result, never as emotional as literature.
The current result is that the Clippers won the game, leading 2:1 with a big score.
It seems that they are close to the two consecutive championships.
Moreover, this will also become Bruce Lee's four consecutive personal championships.
And, in terms of Li Zhen's absolute influence and data in the game, as long as the Clippers win the championship, the finals MVP will not do what others think.
"I didn't think about these things. What we have to do is to play every game well."
After the game, Li Zhen was surrounded by reporters.
He must respond to some questions.
After all, as the face of this alliance, it is impossible for the first super giant to always avoid the media.
Most importantly, this is in Los Angeles. No ignorant media would ask him about the turmoil in New York.
However, the Los Angeles media can also be annoying.
They even asked about the next season: "Tonight, Mavericks bosses Mark Cuban and Nowitzki appeared on the sidelines. At present, many media are circulating about Nowitzki joining the Clippers next season. Can you Tell me something? We all want to see you and Nowitzki join forces."
Li Zhen smiled helplessly and said: "We are not over this season yet? The only thing I can tell you is that we will make some adjustments during the offseason. But these are all management issues. What does it have to do with me? ? I'm just an ordinary player."
amount….
"I almost believed it" appeared on the faces of reporters.
"So what do you think of the New York Knicks? We won the game with difficulty, and they will definitely come up with a more proactive response. Can we predict their prediction?" A reporter from the Los Angeles Times played. Tongue twister.
Li Zhen raised his eyebrows: "The New York Knicks are the strongest opponent I have ever met in my life. I can't predict their predictions. I can only say that every next game will be a five-to-five start. , Who will take the victory can only see who is in better condition that night."
Li Zhen was very humble.
For the losers, they must lift the sedan chair so as not to hurt their self-esteem.
This is the Chinese philosophy of life, and it was also taught to him by the third uncle.
After all, to promote others is to promote yourself. The more you praise the New York Knicks, does it mean that you are better at defeating them?
Then, there is the part that you love to hear.
"After the first game, there was a lot of news that was unfavorable to you in the New York media at that time. Even a lot of public opinion criticized your contact with the female stars of Bruce, and they viciously guessed that you had a negative distance with those beautiful female stars. Contact. However, it turned out that you showed great power in the next two games. May I ask, when you went to the concert and the subsequent parties, did you want to paralyze them? Let them be mindful, or just socialize?"
The Los Angeles media asked conservatively.
Li Zhen got stuck.
This problem exceeds the standard.
"I...this...this...I will not respond to these questions. During the finals, I was just a player." Li Zhenyi said righteously.
The reporters nodded one after another, with a "we all know" expression on their faces.
For them, they definitely don't believe that Bruce messed up the relationship between men and women before the game. After all, Li Zhen's performance on the court was real.
"Those New York media are even crazy. They even have a legend that every time you and the blues girls are secretly photographed, they will explode because you will be a mysterious oriental witchcraft, thinking that you are praying to heaven for power in this way. It's ridiculous. They just lost madly."
There are also reporters fighting injustice.
Li Zhen cheered up, he quickly said that today's interview ends here, what others like to say.
Go your own way, let others say it!
