The older superstars of the NBA

Chapter 973 East and West

After winning the match point with a big score of 3-2, the Milwaukee Bucks tried a counterattack at home.

In this game, Damian Lillard took crazy shots, and Antetokounmpo Giannis kept looking for opportunities outside the penalty area.

The two took most of the team's possessions.

Their touch is actually quite good, at least it is relatively stable in the series. However, the Nets outperformed them.

Especially Kyrie Irving.

The guy had his best game of the season.

He played 41 minutes in the game and scored a total of 31 points and 7 assists. In the second half, he swayed defensive players many times and scored.

Especially in the last quarter, faced with interference from three players, Irving rushed to the basket and succeeded in a one-on-one. His key ball finishing ability has also made countless fans shout wonderful. Even away fans have to admit that Irving's performance is indeed awesome!

Because of this, after this game, the Bucks lost to the Nets as expected, and the big score between the two sides became 2 to 4. The Nets finally advanced smoothly.

As a result, both teams entering the Eastern Conference Finals are from New York. This also made many New York fans cheer wildly.

"I told you so! Victory will only belong to New York."

"No matter who reaches the finals, it will be beneficial to us..."

"Damn it! After all these years, I finally don't have to fly around to support the team in away games... This time I can just drive there..."

Los Angeles.

Staples Center Arena.

The series between the Lakers and the Golden State Warriors has reached Game 6. Thanks to the tenacious efforts of the Lakers, they won two of the games, and the remaining three games were won by the Warriors.

Now the sixth battle is here, and for both sides, this is a moment that determines the outcome.

If the Lakers win, they can tie the score to 3-3, but if the Warriors win, it will undoubtedly be LeBron James who stabs the hearts of Lakers fans.

This kind of thing is difficult for anyone to accept.

Before the game officially started, Lakers fans also gave LeBron a very special welcome ceremony.

"coward!"

"clown!"

"Get out of Los Angeles!"

The moment LeBron walked out of the tunnel, countless fans shouted loudly. Such a formation really made LeBron look depressed from beginning to end.

He once tried to say hello to his former teammates after the game, but most of the Lakers players ignored him, especially the core players like Anthony Davis, who had thick eyebrows. His attitude towards LeBron was almost like an enemy.

beep.

The timer sounded and the two sides officially started fighting.

Snapped.

The referee threw the basketball, and Brother Big Eyebrow took the lead in slapping the ball out. It was Avery Bradley who got the ball.

He quickly pushed the ball to the half-court side. After half-court, Jimmy Butler came up to catch the ball from the wing.

Snapped.

After getting the ball, he singled out LeBron.

The two faced each other, and Butler faced LeBron with a sudden shake and then pulled away.

Swish.

A three-point shot went into the basket cleanly.

The fans cheered loudly.

The fans screamed and shouted wildly.

"Good job!"

"Beat that idiot LeBron! There's no way he's going to take this away from us..."

"Jimmy is the eternal god of Los Angeles! He saved us all!"

Amid cheers from Lakers fans, the Warriors fired the ball. Stephen Curry advanced with the ball. Just after halftime, LeBron suddenly came up from the wing to ask for the ball.

This is not in line with the Warriors' tactics!

Curry hesitated for a moment, but seeing LeBron insisting, Curry still gave the ball to his hands.

LeBron chose to isolate Butler.

The two met each other, and LeBron suddenly rushed into the basket after changing directions and shaking. He is extremely fast and is in the free throw line area in a blink of an eye.

Butler came up on defense at this time, trying to block LeBron's shot when he wasn't prepared. Unexpectedly, LeBron jumped up first and slammed the ball in with a two-handed dunk.

boom.

His dunk drew gasps from the audience.

The thick-browed brother inside was previously focused on other places, so he failed to notice LeBron's actions. When he saw LeBron dunk in, he also gestured to Butler beside him.

"I'll help defend him later."

The game goes on.

Soon the Lakers attacked again.

After the ball passed half court, Danny Green rushed to the basket and failed to score a single, so he transferred the ball. The basketball fell into the hands of Butler in the right corner. Butler saw that LeBron was guarding and was not reckless. He gave the ball to the thick-browed brother on the right side of the basket.

As soon as the ball was passed, Butler quickly rushed towards the basket.

His speed is extremely fast, and Brother Nongmei's reaction is also very fast. Snap, the thick-eyebrow brother threw the ball to Butler who rushed to the basket, and at the same time helped him attract the players on the wing.

Butler rushed to the basket and dunked.

boom.

The ball went in.

The whole audience burst into applause.

The battle between the two sides continued.

Throughout the first quarter, the Warriors did not perform in a way that frightened the Lakers. On the contrary, Butler fought LeBron in various situations, which once put LeBron in trouble.

The Lakers fans at the scene were also very enthusiastic. Seeing LeBron's defeat, many fans turned on the taunting mode, especially when LeBron made free throws. They tried to use this method to interfere with LeBron's mentality.

It all turns out to be very effective.

At least in the first quarter, LeBron's efficiency was not very high.

After this quarter, LeBron also entered a rest state. Players from both sides of the field changed to substitute lineups.

The score between the two sides is still not open.

It wasn't until the game entered the second half, when the third quarter was over, and after both sides sent out their core lineups again in the last quarter, that the gap on the field finally widened.

LeBron was clinging to Butler, but he failed to have any effect in chasing points. But for the Warriors, Curry and Klay Thompson both worked hard.

In the last quarter, the two teamed up to throw 5 three-pointers and scored several good coordinations.

Such a rapid offensive also allowed the Warriors to finally overtake the Lakers and open the score to 4 points.

After that, with less than 3 minutes left in the game, Butler stood up strongly again.

He successfully singled out LeBron at the top of the arc, threw two three-pointers in succession to recover the score, and led the team to lead the opponent by 2 points.

But no one expected that when the two sides entered the last minute, LeBron, who had been silent for a long time, finally showed his value as a superstar.

In the last 44 seconds, LeBron held the ball for a fast break. Under the interference of three players, he just drove the ball into the penalty area and threw a layup. When he scored the basketball, he also successfully got a free throw.

After walking to the free throw line, the entire arena began to boo wildly.

Faced with all these boos, LeBron closed his eyes and prayed, then threw in this free throw amid ridicule and doubt.

Swish.

After this goal was scored, the Warriors led the Lakers by 1 point.

There was not much time left. Butler quickly counterattacked with the ball, and teamed up with Brother Big Eyebrow to rush into the Warriors' penalty area and scored with an alley-oop dunk.

With 13 seconds left, with Curry being double-teamed, LeBron stepped forward to go one-on-one. He came to the top of the arc and took action specifically to face the boos from all the Lakers fans.

Swish.

A three-pointer hit the basket steadily.

After this goal was scored, the Lakers no longer had any possibility of coming back from defeat.

beep.

The Lakers narrowly lost to the Warriors at the last moment.

Amid countless boos from fans, LeBron kissed the Lakers floor. Although many people are still unhappy and despised by his behavior, there are also some fans who deeply regret it.

"Damn! This guy killed us with a clutch shot!"

"It's unimaginable that LeBron was the owner of this stadium last season. He said he would help Los Angeles win the championship, but this season he joined the Warriors..."

"Everything can only start again... But I have full confidence in Jimmy. As long as the team continues to strengthen, I think it will be a matter of time for us to win the championship... LeBron is already old. , How many more seasons can he play?”

In this way, the Warriors defeated the Lakers and successfully advanced to the Western Conference Finals.

The other two Western Conference teams, the Los Angeles Clippers and Phoenix Suns, also ended the series after 6 games.

To everyone's surprise, the Suns actually defeated the Clippers this time.

Many fans originally thought that the Clippers could advance, but in fact, the Suns had the upper hand from the first game of the series.

In the second and third games, the Clippers won one of them and lost only one. After the big score was 2-1, the Suns got match point in the fourth game.

After this game, the Clippers basically lost the possibility of a comeback.

Kawhi Leonard, who had high hopes from the fans, failed to produce outstanding results and failed to help the team win the Suns.

The loss in this series also caused panic within the Clippers team. After all, no matter how many stars gather together, if they can't win the championship, what's the point of such a lineup?

As a result, the outside world began to spread rumors that the Clippers were about to be dismantled, and Leonard, the core of the team, would have a new destination.

No one knows the truth of the matter. In short, the Suns, led by Chris Paul and Devin Booker, succeeded in the Western Conference Finals.

When he won the game, Paul cried on the spot.

With tears in his eyes, he sat on the chair and roared loudly, seeming to vent his dissatisfaction and anger.

After so many years in his career, he has now reached retirement age, but he still persists on the court. After all, isn't it just for the dream of a championship?

It's a pity that in his career, he has only reached the Western Conference Finals only a handful of times! Now that he has entered the Western Conference Finals again, one can imagine Paul's expectations.

After all, this may be the closest he has ever been to the finals!

If he is unable to advance to the finals and win the championship this time, I am afraid that he will not have any chance of winning the championship again.

The qualifying teams for the East and West have been successfully announced.
