Xu Feng thought for a while and replied: "I have confidence in winning the championship, but I don't think so far. The game needs to be played one by one. I will cherish every journey to the playoffs. I prefer to enjoy the process!"

The reporter was very satisfied with Xu Feng's answer and gave him a thumbs up.

"Kobe's performance in these four games was not stable. He scored 26 points in the first game and only 11 points in the second game. What do you think is the problem?"

The reporter had bad intentions when he asked Xu Feng this question.

Because many outside media are sowing discord within the Lakers.

They want to provoke a fight between Xu Feng and Kobe, so that the media will have material to write about, and they can also disintegrate the internal strength of the Lakers.

Xu Feng said without hesitation: "As a superstar with five rings in his hand, Kobe will make adjustments by himself, so we don't need to say so much at all."

The reporter nodded approvingly: "In this way, the Lakers really need Kobe?"

Xu Feng held back his anger and said: "Of course it is necessary. Some people can't use statistics to deny him. Only the teammates or opponents on the field know what you are doing and how terrible you are. Kobe's experience in the finals will be It is the most precious asset of our Lakers."

Seeing that the provocation was not successful, the reporter continued to ask: "If the game enters a stalemate and there are only 2 seconds left, you and Kobe, who will take the last shot?"

Xu Feng smiled: "It's not fixed. Some coaches will make suggestions and let one of us shoot, but we need to refer to the specific situation, such as who was in better condition in the previous game, or he was not taken seriously. , were not strictly guarded against, these were all issues that had to be considered at the time.”

The reporter asked again: "Your next opponent will be either the Clippers or the Grizzlies. At present, the two teams are tied at 2:2. Which team do you think will be more difficult?"

Xu Feng shook his head and said, "If we want to win the championship, we won't pick our opponents. No matter which opponent we face, we must go all out to face it, whatever it is."

……

After the interview, all the Lakers players returned to Los Angeles relaxed and happy.

Since the Lakers swept the Pelicans 4:0, they won a lot of rest days.

However, it is not necessarily a good thing for the team to rest more, because there is a phenomenon that the rest is too big.

Although your opponent has played a few more games than you, his jersey is always tight and his shots are very resolute. Such a game will make people uncomfortable.

And the team with a long rest time will not play as soon as it comes up.

So after the Lakers returned to Los Angeles, they did not give the players a holiday. Instead, the players came to the training hall and did training every day.

Of course, no matter how much you practice during training, you will not use your full strength. After all, this is just training, not a formal competition. Physical strength still needs to be preserved, and it is just a proper long-term warm-up.

Some of the other teams are as follows.

The Warriors defeated the Thunder 4:2 and entered the second round.

The Rockets defeated the Spurs 4:3 and entered the second round.

The Clippers defeated the Timberwolves 4:2 and entered the second round.

Eastern Conference matchups.

The Eagles beat the Nets 4:1.

The Cavaliers beat the Celtics 4:1.

The Bulls lost 3:4 to the Bucks and became the first team to be defeated.

The Raptors defeated the Wizards 4:2.

Since then, the matchups in the second round are as follows.

West: Lakers vs. Clippers, Warriors vs. Rockets.

East: Eagles vs. Raptors, Cavaliers vs. Bucks.

The Lakers vs. Clippers turned out to be a city derby, which is the first time in the history of the two teams.

Because the peaks and troughs of the two teams are always staggered, the two teams have never met in the playoffs.

But this time, both teams are very strong, and the game will definitely be exciting.

Although the Lakers will be stronger and have a better record in the regular season, the playoffs are not the ranking decision of the regular season. It is still unknown who will win.

Before the game, the media interviewed the Lakers team, but Xu Feng refused to meet. He had already decided that, except Kelly, the other media would not be seen.

Sure enough, during training, Kelly came to the training hall again to interview the players.

This time she interviewed Kobe first.

In fact, Kobe is also very important in this playoffs.

Although his scoring is not as explosive as before, his experience and tacit understanding with his teammates are very important.

Every championship team must have one or two veterans.

Because the competition in the playoffs is not only about technology, but also cohesion and willpower, all of which need to be improved by veterans.

Although Xu Feng can also play these roles, but generally speaking, he is still modest and low-key.

"Mr. Kobe, you played very easily in this playoffs. What do you think of the strength of the Clippers?"

Kobe replied indifferently: "The Clippers are very strong. They have Paul's organization, Griffin's attacking basket, Jordan's frame protection, Redick's three-pointer, these are the top players in the league. But I'm still more confident with the Lakers."

"So where does your confidence in the Lakers come from?"

"Of course my confidence comes from Xu Feng, from all our players. We played the league's first record in the regular season and are not afraid of any opponent. And in the regular season, we have three wins and one loss against the Clippers, and we are in an absolute lead Advantage."

Kelly nodded and said: "Indeed, the Lakers are stronger than the Clippers, but I always feel that this round of the series will be very intense, and there will be unexpected situations."

Kobe was taken aback, and asked with a smile, "Can you tell fortunes?"

Kelly shook her head hastily: "No, I just rely on the special feeling of a woman, maybe it won't be very accurate, I hope I can win the Clippers smoothly."

"Thank you, we will try our best. After all, we are rivals in the same city, and we will never let the Clippers crush our Lakers."

In fact, Kobe still has a regret in his heart, because in his peak year, he had the opportunity to cooperate with Paul.

However, due to various reasons, the two failed to cooperate successfully.

Otherwise, with the abilities of these two people together, they will definitely win several championships.

"What do you think of Paul as a player? It is said that you almost cooperated before."

Kobe smiled, didn't speak, and seemed to be thinking about something.

After 1 minute, Kobe said slowly: "Paul is a very good superstar. If we cooperate, we should have a different experience, but everything has passed. I think the current Lakers are the best team. .”

“那你能预测一下湖人和快船的比分吗?4:1?4:2?还是4:3?”

Xu Feng looked a little serious, shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, we will try our best, if we can make it 4:0, we will never make it 4:1!"
