The Point Guard is Here
Four hundred and seventeen: 2 tigers on the side of the couch
Karl Malone is the main power forward of the Lakers.
The Lakers actually made some lineup sacrifices in order to form f4 last summer. When Karl Malone was injured, they only had two vulnerable substitutes, one was the white forward Medvedenko from Ukraine, and the rookie Brad Ryan Cook.
Now, Kevin Garnett's advantages are directly reflected.
Fan Xidu was a little worried for the Lakers.
Karl Malone averaged 32 points per game in the regular season this season, and averaged 13.2 points and 8.7 rebounds per game without tactical status. So far in the playoffs, he has averaged 38 minutes per game, and the data so far is 11.9 points and 8.8 rebounds.
It can be said that Karl Malone is the most important third pole outside the ok combination, and Gary Payton's role in the team is not as great as him.
Now, however, he is injured.
The Timberwolves have an opportunity to take advantage of.
It is also good news for Vanhey and the Knicks.
Objectively increase the possibility of the Knicks winning the championship... Whether it is the Los Angeles Lakers who eventually enter the finals, or Minnesota takes advantage of the chaos to enter the finals.
After Karl Malone left, the momentum of the Lakers' home court visibly changed.
For a long time, Lakers fans have had an inexplicable and strong sense of superiority. When Fan Xie was in Los Angeles, Lakers fans always felt superior. .
But at this moment, Fan Xi felt that Staples actually had the taste of sorry soldiers must win.
This also quickly reflected in the game.
Shaquille O'Neal put away the smile on his face early, and Kobe Bryant's face was so cold that it made people feel cold.
Fan Xi sat in front of the TV, and he watched the game quietly. Now that the situation has changed, he made corresponding changes.
Kobe passed the basketball to O'Neal, and after O'Neal attracted a pincer, he passed it again.
Kobe Bryant made a mid-range hit.
In the words of CCTV's ball commentator, this inside-out was played very well.
Kobe and O'Neal are smart guys,
They all realized that if they didn't cooperate at this time, the annoying Timberwolves would wear the hat of the Western Conference champion to meet their sweetheart.
At the same time, Kevin Garnett also went berserk, and his personal ability was perfectly presented. Karl Malone himself couldn't prevent him. Now that Karl Malone is gone, no one in the Lakers can stop his existence.
He went wild on both wings, using his jumper.
Stephon Marbury also personifies a dangerous moment.
Marbury has always been underrated because of his mouth. Although Gary Payton is a very good defensive player, his age has come up, and he has no way to really limit Marbury, who is at his peak.
Marbury has been a top 20+8 point guard throughout his career. If he didn't claim to be number one in the world, his reputation would be much greater.
Tonight, he appeared on the Lakers' front like a ghost.
Without Karl Malone, the central area of the Lakers became weak.
Moreover, after the Lakers lost Horry, their three-point shooting ability on the perimeter became weak.
Although Rick Fox is also a 3D, he has spent too much energy in the film business, and he has reached the age where he wants to go into the sea completely.
Fan Xie watched the game, and he began to assume Marbury's role.
He was thinking, if he and Garnett teamed up, plus the Timberwolves' current lineup, it would only be a matter of time before they beat the Lakers.
The ok combination is very strong, and their individual ability is very strong.
However, when two very strong individual players team up, they often fail to achieve the effect of one plus one equals two. Even if, tonight they are of one mind.
In contrast, Kevin Garnett is a passive superstar who can do a lot of things.
And in essence, Kevin Garnett does not occupy the ball.
The combination of Fan Xi and Garnett is definitely one plus one equals two.
Therefore, Fan Xi watched Marbury miss the ball many times, and he really wanted to rush in and punch Marbury twice.
The game was very intense. This year's Timberwolves have a strong lineup with a deep bench.
On the other hand, the Lakers rely more on O'Neal and Kobe. If the Timberwolves are luxuriant, the Lakers are an ancient tree with a very strong trunk but few leaves.
Anyone can win.
After the first quarter, the two teams tied.
After the second quarter, the two teams were still tied.
After the third quarter, it was still a tie.
The tension and excitement of the game is full.
Entering the fourth quarter, the first half is still very anxious.
Until Kobe Bryant went into a runaway state, Kobe first entered the penalty area to make Garnett's foul, hit 2+1, and then intercepted Marbury's pass, rushed to the frontcourt and hit a 3-pointer.
Then he assisted O'Neal to complete the dunk.
Make an 8:0 attack wave at once.
Timberwolves coach Saunders quickly requested a timeout.
However, it was too late.
The significance of superstars is that when they burst out with super strength to take over the game, no matter how the opponent adopts the power of the 'system', they cannot be killed.
This is why many teams are strong in the regular season and become sluggish in the playoffs. The playoffs are the stage for superstars.
Bryant turned the game around and Shaquille O'Neal sealed the win... He hit four free throws in a row to stop the Timberwolves' shark-slashing tactic.
In the end, the Lakers defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 109:99.
4:2.
Western Conference Champions.
Kevin Garnett was in tears in front of the camera.
He really thinks this is the closest he has come to a championship. If Hassell on the perimeter defends Kobe even once, the situation may be rewritten.
The Timberwolves were ready to drag the game into overtime. Once it entered overtime, the Timberwolves' lineup advantage would be brought into play.
pity.
The Lakers won. They were cheered by more than 20,000 fans at home. With the ribbons flying all over the sky, they raised the Western Conference championship trophy.
Next, they will have a duel with the Knicks led by Fan Xie.
However, with Karl Malone injured and being forked out of the court by a forklift, people's confidence in the Lakers winning this season is not as strong as before.
Although the Knicks' problems are also very obvious, especially physical problems.
…
At about 12 o'clock that night, the Lakers announced that Karl Malone was reimbursed for the season, and Karl Malone injured his spine.
Malone's management team said it is evaluating retirement matters.
Obviously, the iron man Malone who has played in the league for most of his life has finally come to the last stop of his career.
He will miss the next finals without any suspense.
Although the next day, O'Neal said on TV that he would definitely help Karl Malone win a championship trophy, but...even if they finally win the championship trophy, they will still be suspected of cheating.
Also on this day, Sprewell passed the league's concussion test.
One goes out and one goes in, one ebbs and another.
Gu Yu
The New York media became optimistic.
After all, the Knicks still have a schedule advantage. Since sweeping the Pistons, the Knicks have been resting.
Although the average age of Knicks players is older than that of the Lakers, the Lakers have played a full 17 games, while the Knicks have only played 12 games.
This is also an advantage.
What's more, because of the first record in the regular season, the Knicks have home court advantage.
…
The day after the Lakers won the Western Conference championship, the Knicks officially started training. They had a full week off before that.
When they came to the court, every player was in very good condition, and they did not waste their skills because of the seven-day vacation. On the contrary, they were full of energy.
After all, who among the Knicks doesn't want to win a championship?
The Knicks practiced running and bombing, and also practiced positional offense.
And, following the instructions of Isiah Thomas, the players were divided into two important groups.
One group is dedicated to dealing with O'Neill.
Ratliff, Mutombo, and Anthony Mason, these three specialize in O'Neal.
Sprewell, Grant Hill and Stephen Jackson, these three are required to defend Kobe.
The Lakers are dual-core, and none of them can be kept.
Isiah Thomas said that if you get these two, you get everything.
Strive to sweep them away.
The Smiling Assassin shouted the slogan so loudly that even the most optimistic New York media dared not shout it.
The Knicks players are also extremely cautious and optimistic, and everyone is ready to fight to the end.
Because Reggie Miller said: I have already reached the finals, even if I die on the court, I still have to touch the damn championship trophy.
The biggest regret of Miller's career is the championship.
If he didn't get the championship ring, he wouldn't be willing to die.
He was really fed up with the feeling of being ridiculed in the poker game. Barkley, Jordan, Ewing, Pippen and other old guys will even isolate him when discussing some irrelevant things: please don't speak without a championship ring.
Moreover, the championship has always been the highest honor for athletes who love basketball.
Grant Hill is also extremely eager for the championship. This young man who became famous at a young age is now more eager for team honor.
Moreover, he has made enough money. While he didn't end up being a true superstar, his salary has been high throughout his career, and his commercial value has been staggering even while he's lying in a hospital bed.
In addition, players such as Sprewell, Ratliff, and Mutombo who have not won a championship are also in the atmosphere of fighting to the death.
…
The finals will begin on May 28.
Tickets for the Madison Gardens arena have long been snapped up and sold out at sky-high prices.
Many celebrities have called Fan Xi, but Fan Xi can't do anything, he can't even help his wives to solve it.
Fortunately, James Dolan is very loyal. He successfully created a new private room in the stands, which can accommodate about 10 people.
He told Fan Xi the day before the game, you can invite your friends to watch, it must be the best place.
Fan Xi hurriedly shared the news with Kate and Jennifer, and they are now in a state of coexistence.
Then they invited a pregnant Cindy Crawford. Then, Madonna and Fan Le were also invited. Madonna said, can she bring two more friends?
Jennifer readily accepted.
Then, Madonna said, there might be something special about this friend.
Jennifer didn't say anything either.
No matter how special, can Kate be special?
Jennifer has let go of many obsessions, and now she just wants to live this life happily.
…
After Fan Xi entered the arena on the match day, he noticed a glass room built on the top of the arena stands, which was originally a small shop selling beer.
However, James Dolan used his banknote ability. He made a particularly striking suite, and filled it with individual spaces, lighting, and even a sofa.
The people inside have an excellent view. You can sit on a chair and see the game scene through the TV screen, and you can also look up to see the live game on the big screen in the middle of the stadium. You can also walk to the side and look down...Of course you need to use it A little telescope will do.
This underscores the privilege of this stand.
And, very eye-catching.
The most striking thing is that James Dolan also marked on the glass curtain wall: the exclusive stand for Jack's friends.
James Dolan expressed his special respect for Fanhee in this way.
Fan Xi looked at it, and he said, isn't it too thick?
Isiah Thomas said to him: If a player brings me more than 80 million dollars in net income every year, I will do the same.
Isiah Thomas is the team manager and he knows the club's financial statements best.
James Dolan has indeed made a fortune this year.
At the beginning of the season, no one expected the Knicks to reach the finals.
Madonna couldn't help 'questioning' Fan Xi: Were you playing me before?
Fan Xi didn't know what to say to the owner of the Clippers, so he had no choice but to promise Madonna: Auntie, no matter what, I will return to Los Angeles to win a championship trophy for you.
Fan Le also said to Fan Xi next to him: Yeah, come back early. No matter how good you are outside, it's a part-time job. Recently, I discussed with your aunt and decided to give Cindy Crawford some shares and sell them to her at a low price. She has made great contributions to our Fan family.
Fan Xi rolled his eyes angrily.
However, when discussing this matter. Kate Winslet and Jennifer Aniston are not idle either. Did they say that NBA teams make such money? Let's just buy a team too.
Both are rich and powerful people, especially Jennifer.
Jennifer can really buy an nba team, and the current nba team's market value is not too high.
Madonna heard what they said, and quickly gave them advice, saying that this is indeed a good plan for wealth preservation, and asked them if they had any good ideas.
Jennifer said that she still wants to find a team in a big city with a better climate.
Then, Kate said that the owner of the Kings has been saying that he wants to move the team to Las Vegas, so he just bought a stake in their team.
Jennifer thinks the Golden State Warriors are good, and Oakland is a good place.
The places they fancy are all in California.
But for now, this is just a joke, and no one knows what will happen in the future.
Fan Xi's immediate task is to secure this year's championship.
The Lakers are still the Knicks' number one enemy.
The ok combination is still the tiger on Fan Xi's side.
Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal, as the number one center and number one shooting guard in the league today, are majestic and terrifying existences.
If Fan Xie, the number one point guard in the league, defeats these two No. 1 players in the finals, his historical status will be greatly improved.
