Chapter 1319 Too Many Cards

Chapter 1319 Too Many Cards
In addition to preparing for Game4, the Lakers also need to prepare for the lottery draw held at the end of the month.

Although this year's award was booked by the Lakers as early as last year, there are no more than one person who knows about it.

Inside the Lakers, the only person who knew about it was Louis.

Therefore, there is no conclusion within the Lakers about who to send to participate in the lottery.

Jim Bass thought it was him.

"I want to ask, has any of you done more for this team than me?"

"Which of you will travel for a month for the team?"

"Has any of you ever gone to the backcountry to scout players for the team?"

"Who among you has found talents for the team that can be pinned on in the future?"

When the second generation of Bath were arguing endlessly about this, Bath Jr.'s speech ended the debate.

Although Kobe has not yet fully played, but according to the internal evaluation of the Lakers and the conversion of the data for 38 minutes, the conclusion is that Kobe's immediate combat power at this stage is not the top among his peers, but he is still a quasi-first-line player.

Considering that only Jermaine O'Neal is younger than him among his peers, his room for growth can be said to be unlimited.

For Bryant, the Lakers' scouting department has a minimum expectation - at least an All-Star in the future.

Being able to excavate such talents, the credit of Bass Jr. is not comparable to the so-called business contributions of his brothers and sisters.

It can be said that Bass Jr. is the second generation closest to the power center.

After he finished speaking, Johnny Bass, who was always only interested in wine, said, "If you want to go so much, then go, anyway, we can't get the number one lottery."

The Lakers' lottery pick comes from Vancouver, but the latter is considered to be a good team among the bad teams. It is not the bottom of the bad team, but it is in the upper middle position, and the probability of drawing the No. 8 lottery is only [-]%.

Little Bass began to dream: "That's hard to say, my luck has always been very good."

Jenny hit immediately: "Really? Why do I think you are likely to draw the late lottery pick?"

"Whatever, even if the pick is not high, our Messiah can use it to select the best player." Bass Jr. turned into a dog licking, "I believe in Coach Lu, even if he uses the last pick in the second round, he can select the best player in the class."

Little Bass casually bragged about something that even Louis didn't recognize.

His brothers and sisters just laughed at him secretly, and didn't say it to his face.

That's it. Buss Jr. attended the lottery on behalf of the Lakers.

After that, Buzz Jr. put his energy into torturing Louis.

Louie didn't want to participate in the show whose result was decided, but Bass Jr. insisted on inviting him to accompany him.

Because this is the first time for Bass to participate in the lottery, he doesn't want to go there but doesn't understand anything. It's a small thing to draw a lottery, make a joke, and embarrass the team.

"Unless you announce after the lottery that we're not taking Tim Duncan, there's nothing you can do to embarrass the team."

Louis said lightly.

"How is that possible! This is what Jenny would do!" Seeing that he couldn't talk to Louis, little Bass persuaded him from another angle, "Sir, there should be many acquaintances at the scene, don't you want to take this opportunity to catch up with them? It's a rare opportunity."

Louis is not as nostalgic as Little Bath thinks.

"I don't want to talk nonsense with those people, why on earth do you have to ask me to go to the scene?!" Louis believed that things were not that simple.

Little Bass laughed dryly, "Ah...it's kind of embarrassing to say this..."

Louis is not afraid of his embarrassment.

In fact, Louis was afraid that he was only superficially embarrassed.

"If you don't give me a convincing reason, I won't go with you," Louis said.

Little Bass could only tell the truth, "That's right, I'm planning to open a bar in Inglewood recently... At that time, I want to use your influence to promote my bar."

Good guy, the business is done on me.

Louie guessed: "You're not crazy enough to advertise your bar in a live interview at the lottery, are you?"

Hey, can't you do that?

Louis' eyes became subtle, and Bass shook his head immediately: "Of course! I still understand the rules, and I will only mention it casually during private interviews."

"Alright then, I'll go with you then."

Louis agreed, and didn't think much of it.

The day of the draw happened to be the day after Game 4 ended. If they could beat the Blazers on that day, they would be able to take a 3-1 lead in the series and win the No. [-] lottery at the same time. This kind of surprise after great joy is rare.

At present, the situation in the west is still unclear, while in the east, it can basically be said that the victory or defeat has been decided.

The Knicks, who lost two games in a row at home, used the third game in Boston to prove that the losing streak at home is not abnormal, and that is a true reflection of their current strength.

No one knows what's going on inside the Knicks, but in the Eastern Conference finals, they were weaker than those weak teams that couldn't make the playoffs, and they were completely uncompetitive.

In the third away game, the united Celtics slaughtered the Knicks with a huge advantage of 39 points.

So that after the game, only the Knicks head coach Rudy Tomjanovich attended the press conference.

For the Knicks' internal conflicts, Rudy didn't mention it at all.

For the opponent, he gave praise.

Then, for the Knicks' loss, he tried his best to laugh at himself.

"Did we only lose by 39 points? From my senses, it looks like we lost by 100 points."

Rudy's ability to easily handle the pressure of reporters, on the other hand, also indirectly shows that the Knicks' internal problems have nothing to do with the coaching staff. Otherwise, even if he did not refuse to be interviewed like other players, he would not be as relaxed as he is now.

Louis wanted to make a phone call to find out about the Knicks.

But I picked up the phone and put it down again, repeated several times, but still didn't make a call.

As the old saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and things that are beyond our reach can only go with the flow.

No matter how much Louie missed the old folks in New York, there was nothing he could do at the moment.

There is only one thing he really needs to do, and that is for the Lakers to win Game [-] of the Western Conference Finals.

April 5

Match day

The Lakers will play a key game in the Rose Garden.

The Blazers, who are already 1 to 2 behind, have no retreat. If they lose another game, the Lakers will hold three match points.

What Louis didn't expect was that the Portlanders still focused on their inside line at the beginning of the fourth game.

Olajuwon continued to show off his power in the interior by taking advantage of the momentum he had in the previous game.

With Dameng's strength, as long as the Lakers don't make high-intensity double-teams, he can indeed do whatever he wants in the penalty area.

The problem is, even if Dameng leveled the inside line, the Blazers still can't win the ball. This has been proven.

Why did Riley know his mistakes and never correct them?
Even if it's bad, if you want a star to score data, it should be Jordan's score, right?
The reputation of Dameng's life has been rotten.

No one will compare him with Sampson and Ewing.

Everyone admits that he is a super center with excellent offense and defense, and then there is nothing more.

Jordan has the need to win and lose.

As long as he wins the data, his team can still use the "hard power No. 1" to market. Although the fatal blemish of not having a crown is becoming more and more glaring as Jordan gets older, as long as the marketing is in place, what about not having a crown?

The "Hard Power No.1" card cannot be played, but there is another card "It's all about the useless coach and teammates" that can be played.

"It's all to blame for that useless coach and teammates" is over, and there is an ultimate unsolvable "It doesn't work even if XX is here".

In short, it's not that I can't do it, it's that my teammates are rubbish, and my opponent is too strong, God will kill me.

However, the basis for playing these cards is that Jordan must produce convincing statistics.

Just like when Chamberlain was in the game, no one thought he was better than Russell, but decades later, the terrible data he left behind would make people unable to help but YY say "It's not that Lao Zhang is weak, but the shameless Green Kai has fifteen cores" to justify him ⑴.

After one quarter, Jordan was still the same as the previous game, but tonight, he was not ignited by the confession of the Lakers fans.

In the face of double teams, he can always pass the ball well.

When Olajuwon is attacking, he can also give strong support on the periphery.

Looking at the third and fourth games alone, it is really hard to believe that the Trail Blazers are Jordan's team, because they are completely centered on Olajuwon.

At the end of the first quarter, 28 to 24, the Lakers led by 4 points.

Louis was neither happy nor sad, and glanced at Riley from afar.

He didn't know if this person was in a daze, thinking that Olajuwon could defeat the Lakers' restricted area with his own power, or... had other plans.

If it's the former, then the Blazers' so-called last dance is basically a joke.

If it's the latter, then Louis has to be careful.

Based on Louis' understanding of Riley, the various chaos of the Blazers is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.

⑴To make a digression, many Zhanhei think that after James retires, his historical status will drop from vice dog special to about the top five.I have a different opinion on this.I think that after James retires, the position of deputy dog ​​special may be more stable. First of all, the big honor is second only to regular dog special and equal to other competitors. Secondly, the accumulation of various records and 4-1-1 basic data is too hard.You can find all kinds of reasons to question the value of his numbers, but his numbers will become the cornerstone of defending his place in history over time, just like Chamberlain.
