Basketball: starting from the nerve knife

Chapter 172: Remember the regular season when you tried to force me to get serious

David Stern was also here today.

It’s just that Lakers fans don’t want to see him.

His arrival means that the O’Brien Cup is also coming.

If there is an O’Brien Cup in the middle of the Staples Arena stadium tonight, it will undoubtedly be the last thing Los Angeles fans want.

Boos abounded.

David Stern smiled a little brighter than usual.

David-Stockholm syndrome-Stern hammered.

No wonder he laughed like this.

The ratings of this year’s finals exploded, and although “23” was replaced, the script of “23vs24” was still sold out.

The ratings of the last game were the highest in the finals in 10 years, and the ratings of the sixth show of “God’s Last Dance” in ’98 exceeded this one.

This backlash really relieved David Stern.

In 04, the Lakers’ “F4” upset was overturned by the Pistons’ “civilian” five tigers, and then the ratings of the NBA Finals dropped again and again. Whether it is “Super God Wade” in 06 or the first finals trip of “The Chosen Son” in 07, basically the ratings are high and low.

It wasn’t until last year’s “Lake Kai War” script that it opened high and went high, which saved the ratings of the finals.

However, even last year’s “Hukai War” was slightly less popular than this year’s finals.

If the ratings of the ’08 finals were high and high, then the ratings of this year’s finals were high and crazy.

This can be seen from the level of discussion on the Internet…

The recent NBA Finals on the American network is also a grand event for the sports industry.

Sure enough, there must be a vigorous gimmick to capture the hearts of fans!

David Stern once again tasted the sweetness of making a topic.

Of course, judging by the results of the season …

The script is important, and so is the selection of people!

LeBron James almost let this script collapse halfway, but fortunately Li Wan topped the “No. 23” actor and staged a revenge drama!

Once he wins, this year’s finals will definitely turn a lot of fans!

What is the “timeless cool male protagonist”!

Particularly……

David Stern turned his head to look at the more than 19,000 Staples fans, and then turned his eyes to Li Wan, who was warming up on the field.

In particular, once Li Wan succeeds in revenge, he will still be at the opponent’s home court, in front of the eyes of 20,000 die-hard fans of the Lakers!

This……

Hiss, can’t think anymore.

David Stern forced himself to stop diverging thoughts.

Michael Jordan hasn’t been so excited since “God’s Last Dance”!

This is destined to be the best script in 11 years!

Because, standing opposite Li Wan…

He is currently the first person in the league, 4-time championship, 2-time regular season MVP, 1-time Finals MVP winner Kobe Bryant!

The “stepping stone” that the old man originally prepared for LeBron, but he didn’t expect it, and finally used it for Li Wan!

Is……

I didn’t expect it!

Of course, from David Stern’s point of view, whether it is LeBron or Li Wan, you can use it, and it will not cost him to stabilize Kobe’s “godhead”.

It’s not that David Stern hates Kobe.

It’s just that what happened in the summer of ’04 happened, and Kobe was not destined to become the face of the league.

After “81 points of dragon slaying night”, his popularity rebounded, counting him as awesome; The Lakers “God to sign” got Li Wan, in exchange for such a set of “full-body equipment”, there is also this “ultimate exercise”, count him lucky;

So back to the throne of the first man, David Stern confessed!

But if you continue to hold Kobe, it is bound to cause dissatisfaction in some organizations, and it will also cause the local influence of the NBA brand…

David Stern is pushing LeBron to the top so quickly, and there is a feeling that time is running out, and part of this is why.

Some Los Angeles media reporters at the scene also looked at Li Wan with complicated expressions.

The guy is averaging 26 points, 7.8 rebounds, 9.2 assists, 2.6 steals and 1.4 blocks so far, shooting 44.5 percent from the field, 40.2 percent from three-point range and 88.7 percent from the free-throw line.

Absolute superstar performance!

What’s more, he is currently leading 3-2 with the Magic in the big line, holding 2 game points.

Such a guy was handed over by Los Angeles last year.

Even, after winning the championship last June, they naively thought that it was right to send him out!

Li Wan…

Many Los Angeles fans already have a little pain in their eyes.

The picture they don’t want to see is gradually becoming a reality.

The result is very torturous, and this process, too, is torturous…

Lakers players walk out of the home team player tunnel.

When Bynum appeared, the cheers of the scene suddenly subsided, and if you listened carefully, you could hear some boos mixed in.

Although Bynum’s attitude before the game was very good, his performance in the Finals and his subsequent in-court and off-court actions were unacceptable to Angelenos.

Bynum also heard these boos, his expression suddenly became serious, and when he saw Howard, who was giggling and warming up on the other side of the team, there was a bit of resentment in his eyes.

He naturally did not think that his current predicament was because of himself.

In his opinion, it was entirely because Howard…

Wait, I’ll definitely make you pay!

The flower of sin, growing more and more luxuriant, seems to be waiting for an opportunity to bear fruit.

Bryant came out last.

Like a Jedi, he slowly walked to the center of the field, he looked up at the sky above the arena, where there were 16 championship flags, and…

Retired jerseys for all Lakers names.

He stared for a full 3 seconds, as if praying for something, as if longing for something.

When he lowered his head, there was determination in his eyes.

He didn’t high-five Paul Gasol, so he didn’t give a high five, and he didn’t look at Li Wan on the opposite side like before, the Lakers arrived at this moment, he reached this second, and there were only 2 words left:

Fight it!

And now, in his mind, there are only these two words left!

Everything else, it’s not important…

Li Wan glanced at the sidelines, Taylor had just entered the field, she sent Li Zi to the airport, who had been in the United States for 11 days, the vacation was almost over, and she had to go back to prepare for the internship.

Li Wan felt a little pity because of this.

If he loses one less, he will be able to win the championship in front of Li Zi.

Such a good opportunity to pretend to compare, just missed …

Ay?

Li Wan suddenly reacted: Wouldn’t this girl just see that I was going to win the championship?

With Li Zi’s urine nature, Li Wan felt that it was very likely.

Taylor shouted “Come on” at Li Wan, she hoped that Li Wan would win tonight.

In addition to wanting to see Li Wan’s handsome appearance when he held the cup, he also wanted to live a “two-person world” with Li Wan two days earlier.

There is nothing set up by the managers on either side.

In the sixth game of the series, there is nothing more to say, all the changes are already on the field.

We have all adapted to each other.

The series starts in Game 6, and whoever loses and wins really depends on the live play.

Howard grabbed the first offensive rights for the Magic.

Amid the boos at the scene, Li Wan held the ball for half the court.

Directly shouted Lewis’s block.

TNT studio, Kenny Smith looked at the first attack of the Magic, a little surprised, this is up to amplify the move!

However, it was also unexpected.

The Lakers apparently didn’t expect the Magic to be so strong tonight.

Paulo Gasol made up a bit of a rush.

Seeing this, Li Wan carried himself to the basket to kill.

It was another “fire to the sky” style, and Bynum didn’t think about it this time, so he made it up.

With his current reputation out there, he has to show his positivity.

As soon as he came out, Li Wan immediately gave him the basket from the top of his head. ——This is the benefit of the “fire to the sky” style, holding the ball with one hand, changing the move at any time, disadvantages: people with small hands cannot use it!

Howard grabbed the ball and jumped to make a dunk.

2-0！

In the sixth game of the finals, the connection between the Orlando “OK” combinations opened the way for the game.

“Wuhu! ”

Howard screamed strangely at Bynum.

This was intentional.

In the second half of the last game, against Pau Gasol, he was too happy, in order to find this happiness, he has already thought about it, tried to provoke Bynum, so that he can’t help but move, and be expelled by the referee as soon as possible, so that he can live a “two-man life” with Paul Gasol under the basket.

Therefore, he did everything in his power to provoke.

It’s just that Bynum’s bland reaction made him a little unexpected.

Ay?

Impossible!

This guy is not such a calm person.

After thinking about it carefully, Howard remembered the key and spoke again: “Even Los Angeles thinks you’re not as good as Kwame, man, you shouldn’t have burned the newspaper yesterday, right?” ”

He remembered that the day before yesterday, Bynum became more impatient after hearing him say “you are not as good as Kwame”.

But the result…

This guy’s reaction is still very flat, trying to jam under the basket, but not talking.

Howard felt even more strange now.

That’s not right!

It shouldn’t be like this!

“Warcraft” is puzzled.

What he didn’t know was that Bynum looked calm on the surface, but his heart had already turned over the river and the sea, and he wanted to hammer him to death.

Wait for it!

I definitely don’t want to make it any better!

Bynum was angry, and he believed that the consequences would definitely be serious!

Kobe got the ball at this time, faced Laga Bell, the flank pulled up and shot, the arc of the three-point shot was not bad, but hit the side edge of the basket and bounced out.

Bynum confronted Howard and secretly came with an elbow.

Unexpectedly, Howard also thought so.

Elbows collided, and Howard touched Bynum’s numbness.

Then I saw a man with a “crazy shaker” under the basket, and his eyes painfully watched Howard and Paul Gasol get together.

This time Pau Gasol got the ball first, turned a hook, attacked twice, and successfully completed the goal.

2-2 draw!

There was a cheer.

But when the live screen was given to Bynum, they showed a look of disgust again.

In a close-up, you can see…

The corners of Bynum’s eyes glowed with tears.

It really made him feel miserable to touch the hemp tendon.

But in the eyes of Lakers fans, this is not able to hold Howard to tears.

This is a “soft egg”!

Bynum heard someone in the audience call him a soft egg, and the account was calculated by him on Howard’s head.

The Magic team continued to play “Li Liu” to block demolition.

This time Lewis adjusted extremely quickly after receiving the ball, and when the ball flew out of his hand, Pau Gasol had just saved.

The ball should fall into the frame.

It’s very crisp.

Score 5-2!

Sure enough!

I am Li Wan’s “Pippen”!

Lewis is even more convinced that his feelings are right… He and Li Wan have a bright tomorrow.

Kenny Smith looked at Paul Gasol, who brushed his hair back, and smacked his lips and said: “This can’t work, you have to find someone to share the defensive pressure of Paul Gasol!” ”

It’s already clear that Lewis can shoot from the three-point line and Pau Gasol is at most delayed to the high post and the free throw line.

“Gotta get Odom up! ”

Phil Handy also noticed Paul Gasol’s embarrassment on the defensive end.

Lewis, this bowman, is really disgusting!

Such a tall man does not hit the basket and shoots three points from the outside …

Are you worthy of your height?

“Ugh! ”

On the field.

Paul Gasol, who was a little uncomfortable on the defensive end, continued to exert his power on the offensive end, this time running high to receive a pass that Kobe Bryant almost missed, and then rushed to the basket to complete the score.

He scored four points in a row, which is certainly a good thing.

But Kobe’s state tonight made people a little worried.

In addition to the CCTV-5 channel, Director Zhang believes that Kobe Bryant is ironclad because “that opportunity has come out, but it didn’t score, it’s a pity”, and the passing almost mistake was “Paul Gasol didn’t complete the catch in time”…

Others, to a greater or lesser extent, can feel Kobe Bryant’s slightest impatience tonight.

He was eager to build an advantage in the opening game.

Fortunately, after Paul Gasol completed two consecutive saves and wiped his ass, Kobe’s entire mood seemed to be a little more stable, and he was no longer so iron.

He seemed to remember, and next to him stood his self-considered best comrade-in-arms, Paulo Gasol.

This is a man who can give him a sense of security…

Even if all your teammates can’t be trusted…

He, or that trustworthy comrade-in-arms!

Phil Jackson also adjusted in time, bringing Odom on the field and replacing Ariza. – Odom is more mobile than Paul Gasol, who blocks Lewan and Lewis, and Paul Gasol stands in the elbow and waits, so that he can either immediately pounce in front of the Turkoglu he needs to defend, or return to the defensive basket to help Bynum deal with Howard.

Although it is not a perfect change of defense every time, from the point of view of effect, it is indeed much better than the previous single use of Pau Gasol to chase Lewis.

Tkoglu was a little embarrassed.

In the first three games of the finals, he was still the focus of the team’s ball holder, but now he is on the margins.

But in his heart, he couldn’t get upset…

The first three games of the Finals proved that if he played the ball, the Magic couldn’t win.

The pressure eventually all focused on Li Wan.

It’s different now…

It both unleashed Lewis’ firepower and activated Howard’s dominance under the basket.

In addition, Li Wan treats him well, and he has no idea of stabbing him in the back at all.

He just thinks that others can do their best, but he is reduced to Lewis, who can only move back and forth from tactical points outside the three-point line.

I’m a little sorry for Li Wan’s concession all the way.

He can only run more aggressively and it is good to attract Pau Gasol’s attention more.

The form of both sides came up quickly, and the first quarter ended, and the score on both sides was 33-34.

The Magic are temporarily trailing by one point.

Bryant scored 7 points in a single quarter.

Paul Gasol reassured him and slowly adjusted his feeling, and it was with his 3-point goal that the Lakers overcame the one-point difference.

Phil Jackson’s brow kept furrowing.

The price of putting Odom on the court early is that the Lakers bench does not have an interior player with enough height and strength.

All right……

Even if there is, it is estimated to be of little use …

Lee Van opened up Stan Van Gundy’s point in Game 5 of the series, and as soon as the second quarter came up, he once again brought out the lineup of Jason Williams, Crawford and Howard.

“Warcraft” relies on “white chocolate” to deliver shells during the substitute rotation stage to carry out dimensionality reduction strikes.

Without even two minutes into the second quarter, the Magic reversed the deficit and regained a three-point lead.

Phil Jackson shook his head slightly and could only put the starter back on the field.

The Lakers’ starting lineup, except Odom, has played almost all about 11 minutes.

But the game started, less than 14 minutes…

On the Magic side, Howard has played the most minutes, currently playing 12 minutes.

Everyone else is basically in their early 10s.

Don’t look at it for only 1 extra minute, just tonight’s intensity of confrontation, really 5 seconds of rest, is a luxury.

At 4:15 of the second quarter, Stan Van Gundy made a substitution while the team continued to lead by three points, putting Howard, who had played two more minutes, off the break and pulling Kwame Brown to top the time.

When Kwame came up, the entire atmosphere of the Staples Arena changed.

Phil Jackson’s eyes narrowed slightly;

Kobe’s eyes became sharp;

All the Los Angeles people at the scene also unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Tonight’s Bynum was crushed badly by Howard.

“Warcraft” currently has 7 points and 5 rebounds, Bynum is currently 0-of-3 and has scored 1 point on free throws, in addition to 0 rebounds, 0 assists and 0 blocks, but he has 2 turnovers.

The gap in data is already large.

Not to mention the performance on the field.

Bynum and Howard really are, one underground, one heavenly.

Now Howard is still going down to rest,

When he finishes resting and runs up with more energy, what else will the Lakers play?

So……

Whether the Lakers can erase the point difference or even overtake the score during this period will become a very critical thing!

Kwame Brown came on and Bynum’s eyes became gloomy.

The two people he hates the most right now are Howard and, naturally, Kwame Brown.

Dare I say I’m inferior to Kwame Brown, right?

Then let’s see, who is inferior to whom!

As soon as he came up, he got into a fight with Kwame Brown.

A ferocious confrontation is like a beast biting.

He was fierce, but Kwame Brown was not afraid at all.

Not only was he not afraid, but he didn’t put Bynum in his eyes at all.

During the confrontation, Bynum looked at him, but he looked at Pau Gasol.

“Bang! ”

The ball hit the rebound.

Nelson Jr.’s catch-and-shoot projection was interfered with by Li Wan.

But under the basket…

Pau Gasol formed a trap with Bynum.

The “sister-in-law” snatched the ball and successfully completed the second attack.

Kwame Brown is indeed a little worse at board-grabbing ability.

Especially against the Lakers’ “twin towers”.

It’s even more downwind.

However, in Bynum’s view, it is not the credit of two people, but he alone prevented Kwame Brown.

Therefore, he roared very domineeringly: “Ho ah! ”

Look at me!

How fierce!

Do you dare to say that I am inferior to Kwame Brown?

Well?

He also deliberately glanced towards the sideline audience.

The person who just called him a “soft egg” is cheering loudly.

Scold~

Fence-sitter!

There is still 1 point left in the difference.

As soon as Howard saw his end, the situation on the field immediately changed, and his butt immediately jumped up as if it was on fire. An anxious glance was given to Stan Van Gundy.

“Coach Anzai” also frowned a little.

The gap is a bit big!

Li Wan also secretly thought in his heart.

The gap between Kwame Brown and Howard at the top is even wider than he thought.

He just thought about this guy’s top defense ability, but ignored Howard’s ability to grab rebounds…

“The Magic have to make sure they’re efficient on the scoring end,” Kenny Smith said, “or put Howard back on the court.” ”

Li Wan held the ball to face Kobe.

After blocking Lewis, he sent the ball to the basket.

Kwame Brown against Bynum.

After turning around, he hit the board and easily dripped the ball into the basket.

The whole process, except for the first confrontation, Bynum exerted strength, and the rest of the whole set of actions, Bynum did not follow.

Kwame Brown’s speed around was a bit unexpected.

It also surprised the Lakers fans at the scene.

“fxxk you！ ”

Habitually shouted, Kwame Brown returned to defense.

Do you think that against Howard for a season, only Howard’s top defense ability has improved?

Similarly, Kwame Brown’s turnaround and rebounding under the basket is also a lot more proficient.

After all, that’s what Howard does best.

Under the ears, the eyes will know, the hands themselves will also know, not how complicated, but after all, it is a move that Kwame Brown would not have done before.

No one knows that Kwame Brown has such a small move.

Bynum didn’t know either.

Boos rang out from the sidelines.

They all went to Bynum.

You look at you, single defense under the basket, let a former substitute score so easily, really, don’t even want a face!

Bynum’s expression became ugly again amid the boos of the audience.

Howard shouted at this time: “I know that you are not Kwame’s opponent!” ”

“Just now your reaction seemed like a clown! ”

Bynum heard this, reacted as if to stress, and turned his head sharply to look at Howard, with a more cruel look in his eyes.

The flower of sin, bearing fruit …

On the Lakers’ side, Kobe hit a three-point ride to officially equalize the score.

With this goal, he has already scored three times in a row.

There were also loud cheers at the scene.

As long as Kobe’s state rises, then anything can happen!

However, the Magic team also responded again.

It is still the blocking of Li Wan and Lewis.

The ball went to Kwame Brown under the basket, but unfortunately it did not score this time.

But……

“Snap! ”

Tekoglu, who has never had much presence, actually rushed to grab the rebound and successfully rebounded to complete the goal.

“yes！ ”

Turkoglu clenched his fists fiercely.

Even if the ball is no longer effective, he has his own way to help the team…

Because, everyone is working hard!

On the Lakers side, Paul Gasol scored another goal, to say that this guy is also in good shape, plus Odom helped to supplement the outside, his physical energy consumed on the defensive end came down at once.

Can be better invested on the offensive end, coupled with Howard not on the court during this time, Paul Gasol played very strong, full of presence.

It was also Paul Gasol’s containment that allowed Kobe to regain his touch from the struggle.

Paul Gasol, it’s great to have you in Los Angeles!

However, the Magic responded as much as they could, and still had a one-point lead before Howard came on.

After Howard came on, they immediately extended the gap to 5 points.

It’s not that Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol are not strong, they continue to output, but the disadvantage of the “three highs” present at the same time is undoubtedly revealed at this time.

With Bynum, Pau Gasol and Odom in need of rest, the Lakers’ interior strength suddenly weakened.

At the end of the first half, the Magic were 58-50 and had an eight-point lead.

What’s it!

Bryant cursed and walked through the home team player tunnel to the locker room.

He scored a total of 15 points in the first half, the highest on the Lakers’ side.

Pau Gasol’s score also came to 12 points.

The two combined for 27 points, accounting for more than half of the Lakers, but the Lakers are still 8 points behind…

The feeling of weakness is really uncomfortable!

“The Lakers have to step up one more person, or they’ll lose this game!” Kenny Smith glanced at the Lakers’ roster, trying to find someone who could help Kobe Bryant and Gasol, and the name skimmed by, and the result was…

Wood has.

Bynum also resisted Kwame Brown’s ability and occasionally had to be stolen by opponents.

Odom, on the other hand, has a situation where playing too long a game will lead to a lack of concentration and a plummeting of efficiency.

The rest…

Ariza is not in the starting lineup, which is a waste.

Little Nelson can also exchange an explosion with Crawford.

“In this way, the Magic team’s roster this year is really deep! And these people can also form complementarities with each other…”

It’s a real match!

This is naturally due to Stan Van Gundy.

Well……

They thought the Magic’s changes were all Stan Van Gundy’s idea.

Little did he know that from Game 4 of the Finals, Stan Van Gundy gradually became “Di Renjie”.

Barkley, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: “In fact, if Howard is not on the court, the Lakers can still play…”

Like him, there is also the coaching staff of the Lakers.

But the question now is, how can Howard sit on the court for a little longer?

Although he has 3 fouls, there are still 2 quarters left in the game, and at least he has to eat 2 fouls in one time to force him off the court.

Specifically for Howard rushing inside…

It’s not even an efficient thing to think about.

Then…

“Chopping sharks”?

Phil Jackson’s mind suddenly flashed such a professional term.

So, in the second half, he used this trick.

The effect was still good, Howard was cut 5 “knives”, 10 free throws, only 2 shots.

They also managed to tie the scoreline.

It’s just that……

They can’t continue to “chop”.

The fierce confrontation in the first half made the number of fouls in the Lakers’ starting team not very generous, and if it was “cut”, there was a foul crisis.

The Lakers have too few people available, and after five games, Phil Jackson knows that the only people who can face off against the Magic are the only five people currently on the court.

One less…

None of it!

Of course, the most critical thing is that the Lakers even “cut” 5 knives, their own offensive rhythm “cut” gone, Phil Jackson saw the consequences, hurriedly called a stop, and resumed the normal offensive and defensive rhythm.

Anyway, the effect is already out.

The point difference is equal!

Phil Jackson knows very well what it means to take what you see good.

“Phew! ”

Only the next ball, he suddenly felt that he had received it too early.

Li Wan blocked and gave the ball to Howard under the basket, and the “Warcraft” who was “cut” depressed vented the goal of this round and slammed one on top of Bynum’s head.

The ball fell straight from the basket and landed on Bynum’s head.

Howard was still puzzled, and scolded him: “You can only rely on those inferior means to deal with me, you bitch who is not as good as Kwamei!” ”

Just 5 “knives” of the Lakers, Bynum alone contributed 2 “knives”.

Naturally, he became the most hated person in Howard’s eyes.

The ball hit Bynum’s head painfully, and Howard’s words poked Bynum’s heartache.

He fell into darkness completely.

It’s the Lakers’ turn to attack.

Bynum’s confrontation with Howard this time was greater than ever, and there was an absolute hatred in his eyes. It seems that the next round will not only divide the victory and defeat, but also determine life and death.

It’s a pity that in the eyes of peak Howard, there is only “Yao Shark”, and others confront him, and they really can’t bind him.

Not to mention the “Warcraft” that is still strengthened by Kwame Brown.

“Phew! ”

Another confrontation, Howard’s power, and at the same time came an elbow towards Bynum’s side.

This elbow hurt so much that Bynum was about to lose his voice, his expression was hideous, the fruit of the flower of sin fell in his mind, the petals scattered, and he moved.

With a fierce face, he pushed sharply, and Howard, who was grabbing a rebound with Paul Gasol, did not expect that Bynum would suddenly not talk about Wude, and his whole body was unbalanced, and he almost fell straight to the ground.

The body’s instinctive reaction, Howard’s feet first stepped towards the ground, and then supported the ground with both hands.

But at the moment his foot landed, there was a piercing pain in his ankle, and Howard once again lost his balance and stumbled to the ground.

The smile on his face dissipated, leaving only pain.

“Toot! ”

The referee quickly blew the whistle.

Bynum glanced at Li Wan for the first time, and then immediately hid far away.

Weakly lowered his head.

Li Wan immediately rushed towards Howard, wanting to see what was going on with Howard.

In fact, you don’t need to look to know that Howard must be injured.

Because……

The second stage of the “Little Prince Against Melancholy” emblem that lights up on the wall of the coat of arms has been lit, which explains the result.

The results of the team doctor’s examination did not surprise him.

Howard, supported by two men, walked towards the away team aisle.

The eyes of the “Warcraft” were full of unwillingness, and he looked back at the field several times.

“Check with peace of mind man, I promise you, I will definitely come back with victory!” Li Wan spoke.

Everyone on the Magic team had different expressions, including Howard, and seemed to forget about the pain.

Here it comes!

Here it comes!

This guy is here again!

Every time a teammate is injured is bound to hear a word, it comes!

Although they have been slapped in the face many times, they still can’t help but question first…

Although the main force was injured last time, it was Bogans…

Ordinary main force, only because of the lack of personnel in the number two position, it seems that he is irreplaceable, if it really ends, it will not have any impact on the Magic’s offensive system…

But Howard’s injury is different!

Not just on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end, his departure was a major blow to the Magic.

Stan Van Gundy’s expression was livid, and the fans waiting in front of the TV and at the Amway Arena were no better. They……

Think a little further!

What if Howard is seriously injured and not only can’t play this game, but also the next game?

If the Magic can’t win a quarter and a half without Howard, it’s even less likely to win Game 7 of the Finals without Howard…

In other words, if the Magic don’t win tonight, the upcoming championship is likely to miss Orlando again.

“Bynum’s action is really undeserved, this is not the action that should appear on the basketball court! Kenny Smith sat in the studio and criticized fiercely.

Barkley next to him just shook his head slightly and didn’t say anything.

He knew very well that their criticism would not have any effect, that the fact that Howard was injured would not change because of their criticism, and that the referee could not have expelled him from the field because of such an action by Bynum…

At most, give a technical foul.

Because it’s the finals.

It is impossible to send off less than a last resort.

From this perspective, it is understandable why Bynum was sent off, and the reaction of Angelenos was so great.

What kind of talent does it have to be to be sent off in the finals?

Sure enough, the referee gave the penalty, Bynum was technically fouled, and the Magic were given two free throws.

This is the biggest compensation the referee can give to the Magic.

But everyone knows that this doesn’t compensate the Magic for anything.

Li Wan was ready to execute the free throw, and I don’t know if it was a weak heart, the boos on the scene did not get up at the first time, Li Wan turned his head and glanced at Bynum on the right free throw waiting line.

“Man, I always remember your phrase that you fell victory in Los Angeles, only now it seems that you have changed a lot! ”

After Li Wan finished speaking, he ignored Bynum.

One after another, he hit two free throws steadily amid boos.

The spread was extended back to 4 points.

Bynum gritted his teeth and secretly cursed: fxxk!

Li Wan’s words gave him no confidence to fight back.

It was also at this time that he remembered his hot-blooded self. He finally felt a trace of guilt in his heart. But it’s just a hint, and it’s just a moment.

In the current situation, only if he wins, the best result is for him!

So Howard, hurt the best!

Kwame Brown comes on.

Howard’s sudden injury left him on the brink.

Therefore, Kwame Brown, who is usually very confident, came on the field this time, and his face was a little more nervous. – He didn’t play very well in the first half, and the Magic lost points during that time.

He took a few deep breaths and gave the ball to Li Wan.

Li Wan looked at Kobe Bryant, who had been waiting for him earlier, and slowly approached.

Also in a hurry to attack, but looked at Kobe:

“Remember the regular season when you tried to push me to get serious? ”

“Black Mamba” raised his eyebrows, his expression was stunned, he originally thought that Li Wan was going to burst into some foul language, after all, Bynum’s action was known to anyone, it was intentional.

But I didn’t expect it…

He actually said this…

“So now… Just let you see! ”

Li Wan said, suddenly accelerated his dribbling rhythm, Kobe’s pupils shrank slightly, and the familiar sense of offensive oppression hit…

Think back to what Li Wan said…

He suddenly felt ironed, old heart.

Huh?

No!

What do you mean by that?

Do you mean that it was until now, when Howard was injured, that it pushed you to the point of seriousness?

Kobe doesn’t know when to face Li Wan, this thought has to self-dissolve at every turn.

The sense of superiority generated by Li Wan’s effective defense a few days ago was gone.

But this also aroused Kobe’s fighting spirit…

He has waited too long since the Olympics!

He wasn’t at his best at the Olympics, and he didn’t bother to keep his offensive form in order to put more energy into the defensive end.

This is also the reason why he disobeyed Li Wan!

Right now, when he is in the best condition, he has confidence to suppress Li Wan!

It’s just that……

“Squeak-”

The shrill sound of sneakers rubbing against the floor sounded.

After Li Wan dribbled continuously, he suddenly changed direction in front of his body, and the action was as extreme as possible.

Kobe, who was gradually passive, wanted to steal back the defensive initiative through steals, but was erased by Li Wan, and when Paul Gasol just wanted to defend up, Li Wan had already shot from mid-range jumper.

The ball flew higher and higher in front of him, over his head, straight into the basket.

The goal is scored!

Li Wan replied expressionlessly.

His appearance, as well as the extreme action, made Kobe completely sure.

It is indeed Li Wan, who is 100% serious!

His fighting intent burned at this moment!

Also showing a different face were the rest of the Magic team.

If there were doubts just now, now they have no doubts…

Because they have stood on the field twice to witness what Li Wan in this state has done!

In this case, he is an invincible god of war!

As for their gang of horse boys, just do a good job of wiping their asses defensively …

So Lewis took the lead and shouted:

“Defend! Defend! ”

Kobe Bryant took the ball directly from the backcourt, and after going to the front court, he still put on a clear position, facing Li Wan on the flanks, ready to single out.

There is no doubt that ’08 and ’09 were Kobe’s peak two years.

How high is it at its peak…

Li Wan, who boarded the “Basketball God” account, could only watch the ball enter the basket in the face of his “backward jumper”.

“Kobe’s response, what a ball! This ball is good-looking, Kobe and Li Wan are against Biao, this and this, this is interesting! Director Zhang watched the two people come and go on the field, not giving in to each other, and the enthusiasm of the commentary also came to the extreme, dancing with his hands.

Most importantly, both men used “weapons of God.”

– Mid-range jumper!

The other two people in the studio did not speak, but just watched intently.

They originally thought that the Magic would most likely lose this game, after all, there was one less Howard, but now, they suddenly felt that maybe now, it was the beginning of this Armageddon…

There are also others who feel this way.

They watched Li Wan face Kobe Bryant with the ball again, and remembered the theme of this finals –

No. 23 vs No. 24!

Lee Wan vs Kobe!

The ultimate battle!

It, here it comes…
