Chapter 489 A game that decides the future of the league
On June 3, 1995, the nights in Houston were gorgeous and charming. This is the American Space City and one of the largest cities in the United States.
In the head coach's office of Houston Rockets in Houston, compared with the glory outside, the office environment seemed a little dark. A white middle-aged man with excellent temperament was staring at the TV screen in front of him. Because the lights in the office were turned off, the bright light of the TV screen seemed a bit special on the face of the white middle-aged man.
The white middle-aged man who can sit in the Houston Rockets head coach's office is naturally Houston Rockets head coach Rudy Tom Janovic.
From the last game he was defeated by the Lakers, from the end of the game on June 2 to now, he has been sitting in his office for about 20 hours and watching the video sent by the editors. About the Los Angeles Lakers, it is no, it should be said that it is a video about Lin Han.
Unlike other NBA teams, if you understand the Lakers, you don’t need to know anything else, you just need to understand Lin Han. Just like the three games I lost in the past, the first game was Lin Han’s super big triple-double with 40 points, and the second and third games were Lin Han’s cancer mode or the God mode’s super high score of 70 points +.
The Lakers' leading player showed his ability on offensive, defensive and team organization in these three games.
Judging from these three games, this young second-year player is even more terrifying than Jordan who was born in the past.
In the NBA for so many years, he has never seen a player who can completely play from No. 1 to No. 5, both offense and defense. Lin Han came in as a shooting guard when he first entered the league, so there is no problem with playing No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, but what about No. 4 and No. 5?
The number four position can suppress Barkley at both ends of the offense and defense, and the number five position can compete with Hakeem in both sections of the offense and defense. Such a strange player has never appeared in the history of the NBA.
As a basketball coach, such a strange player is a dream for anyone, because he can realize all the coach's ideas about his own tactics. He can do anything, and naturally he can do any tactics.
However, as an opponent, such a player can be really painful.
Because he can do anything, you don't know what he will do when he competes with you.
What role will he play on the court in the sixth game of the next most important Western Conference Finals? The axis in the Princeton system? The attacker who keeps attacking in the cancer system?
Maybe he won't be so tangled when the series begins.
He doesn't believe that there will be a player in the history of the NBA who will defeat Barkley, Olajuwon and Drexler. As long as the Rockets have these three players, there will be no problem with the Rockets' opponent no matter who they are.
But now, after a big score of 2-3, no one can become confident, because if you lose another game, the Rockets will be eliminated.
Since the Rockets have spent such a great price to form a Big Three combination that makes the entire league tremble, and it is also a top Big Three combination. If they are eliminated by Lin Han, who has a single core, he will not even dare to imagine what impact this will have.
Now, he has to face a very difficult but must accept reality, that is, how to ensure a 100% defeat of Lin Han, a powerful but versatile and cunning player.
As a head coach of the NBA, you must trust your players at any time. This is the most basic quality, and he is indeed the case. Therefore, in front of the players, he will never spread any frustrating message. He only needs to make the players feel that they can win any opponent, even if they are behind 0-3, they can win all opponents.
As long as they can maintain a competitive championship heart.
However, he himself doesn't know who can continue to keep the heart he has instilled in them to maintain a competitive championship.
There is definitely no problem with Hakeem, Charles and Clyde. They never need to mobilize when facing Lin Han.
But what about the others?
When a person sees God once, he will lose his composure. So what if he sees it three times in a row?
Even if it was him, his confidence was shaken now, let alone others?
"Rudy"
"Um?"
Just as Tomjanovic was thinking about how to defeat Lin Han 100%, the office door was pushed open, and looking at the big black man walking in, Tomjanovic was a little surprised.
"Hakim is still training so late?"
"It's not just me, everyone is here now, we're fine now"
We're fine now?
Tomjanovic frowned and heard some other meaning from Olajuwon's words.
"Rudy, what else can we lose, I, Charles, Clyde, what else can we lose? The shame that guy brought us, what else can we lose?"
"Hakim..."
"Rudy, now, we just want the championship. Everything else is not important except the championship. As long as we can beat that guy, we can do anything!"
The big black rant almost finished speaking these words before he took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement: "We all hope that you don't have any more concerns. As long as you can defeat that guy, you can let us do anything. We don't need extra glory or extra respect, we just want to win."
For so many years with the Rockets, Tom Janovic certainly knew that Olajuwon was not a good-tempered person. At the beginning, Hakeem was one of the most famous thorns in the league.
Although it is no longer a thorn, how could the nature of a thorn disappear just by saying it disappear?
What is the nature of a thorn?
It is greed, greed for glory. Just like after the Rockets 2-0 at the beginning, what Hakeem wanted most was not to sweep the Lakers, but to have a perfect revenge of 4-1 Lakers. Even if it was the first two games, it could directly crush the Lakers with a big score, but Hakeem insisted on giving the Lakers some hope in the game, and then breaking the hope of the Lakers and Lin Han. This is a play and humiliation of Lin Han and the Lakers.
Victory cannot completely satisfy his greed.
And now...
This is the first time he has seen Hakeim say such things. As long as the championship is, the glory on the road to championship is no longer what he is considering.
However, although surprised, Rudy Tom Janovic's face, which had been bitter for more than 20 hours, finally smiled.
"I know how to do it, Hakim, don't worry, the final victory must belong to us. Let me tell you that if you don't need to train, we will have a game tomorrow."
“Yes, boss!”
After Olajuwon left, Tomjanovic turned his attention to the TV again.
This time, he watched the figure of Lakers No. 24 on TV, which was a little different.
As the head coach of the NBA, victory is not the only pursuit. It can make the team's main players happy. Sometimes it is even more important than victory. If the main player wants a triple-double, you have to accompany him to play a triple-double. No matter how good the tactic you have, this tactic cannot make the main player win a triple-double, and it cannot be used!
If the player wants to score the scorer, you have to develop a tactic for the player to score the scorer.
Just like after the Rockets 2-0 Lakers, Hakeem and the others want to get a perfect revenge, or after the series starts, Hakeem and the others want to humiliate Lin Han. As the head coach, he certainly does not want such a thing to happen. Perfect revenge means deliberately losing to the Lakers. Humiling Lin Han in the game means that every game is on the verge of immortality when you fight snakes. If you often walk by the river, there is no one who doesn't get a shoe wet.
However, since Hakim and the others have such a need, no matter how unwilling he is, he needs to cooperate.
Therefore, his task in this round of series is to cooperate with Hakim and the others to humiliate Lin Han. This is the shackle that is tied to him. Now Hakim finds him personally and untie the shackle, he can implement the tactics according to his own thoughts.
"I have to say that you can let Hakim and the others let go of those hatreds now, you are really amazing..."
If Hakeem and his friends didn't have that much hatred for Lin Han, in fact, when the Rockets were 2-1, Hakeem and his friends would express their opinions to him that they only needed to win and no longer wanted to play any humiliation and revenge games.
But until now, until the Rockets were on the verge of elimination, Hakeem and others abandoned these unnecessary ideas.
This shows how high the hatred Lin Han is in Hakim and others.
Fortunately, it's not too late now. He was wearing shackles before and it was really difficult for him to find a way to defeat Lin Han.
But now, he doesn't need to defeat Lin Han, he just needs to defeat the Lakers...
He still has a way to defeat Lin Han and only defeat the Lakers, and it is a 100% method.
Looking at the Lakers players around the Lakers No. 24 on TV, Tom Janovic finally showed a long-lost confident smile on his face.
On Sunday, June 4, 1995, the NBA Western Conference Finals Lakers and Rockets were on the day of the game between them, Los Angeles, and the championship was crowded.
This is Los Angeles, where celebrities and beauties gather, and countless wealthy businessmen are numerous.
In recent days, whether it is these celebrities, beauties or wealthy businessmen, they are not the focus of Los Angeles. There is only one focus of Los Angeles, that is Lin Han and his Los Angeles Lakers.
So much so that as the owner of the Los Angeles Lakers, Bass has now become the most honorable guest in the upper class of Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Lakers have not won the championship yet, and the bonus Lin Han has brought him is not worse than the ‘sho-time’ era that was popular all over Los Angeles.
I have to say that now, thinking about it, for Lin Han, the entire Los Angeles team was separated. This deal is really worth it.
No wonder even Jerry West is willing to serve him completely like a nanny. When will this Lakers general manager make you feel so kind and kind? Although he is indeed a kind and kind person, it is correct.
"Mickey, we should be able to win today, right?"
Mickey, we should be able to win today, right?
Kupchek was already a little numb when he heard the friend next to his boss ask.
He finally understood why Jerry West would let him take over to accompany Old Bass and these celebrities in Los Angeles instead.
These guys are really annoying. They don’t usually come to pay attention to the Lakers, and when they are busy, they run faster than anyone else. They are obviously an amateur, but they look like I am very expert.
He could even be sure that his answer would soon become a topic of self-confidence for these people, and would go elsewhere to show off their prophecy and analytical abilities.
These guys are so hypocritical.
However, no matter how hypocritical these guys are, they are all friends of the boss, and he can only complain in his heart.
"Mr. James, victory belongs to the Lakers"
Of course, as the assistant to the Lakers' general manager, Kuppchek is now accompanying Old Bass to entertain the dignitaries in Los Angeles, while Jerry West, as the general manager of the team, is now surrounded by David Stern and Lalibird.
In this game, David Stern also came to the scene, and the league's Western Conference champion was also on the scene.
If the Lakers win this game, he will present the Lakers with the Western Conference Championship trophy.
If the Rockets win, he will have to take the trophy to Houston again.
As the president of the league, he doesn't dislike such errands. Whether it's the Rockets against the Lakers or the Bulls against the Magic in the West Finals, it's best to play seven games.
Then the Lakers and Bulls entered the finals and realized their wish of 23 vs 24.
In this year's division finals, the ratings are the ratings of Creativity NBA's previous division finals, because there are so many attractive things in these two duels, Lin Han vs. The Rockets' Big Three, Jordan's successor Hardaway took O'Neal to fight Jordan.
This is the game he wants to see the most.
Since he took over the NBA league, he has not denied that this year's NBA is the most glorious year, and in terms of business, that's it.
This year's NBA let him see the present and future of NBA!
Of course, unlike David Stern, Lalibird looks at the Lakers and Rockets' game differently.
"This game will determine the future ownership of the entire league"
The Lakers won, and there is no doubt that the future of the league is no longer necessary.
If the Rockets win...
Since the Rockets have won the sixth game of the Western Conference Finals, it is impossible for them to lose to the seventh game of the Western Conference Finals. The Rockets have completed tempering with the Lakers, so Jordan and his Bulls are also difficult to block the Rockets' Big Three.
As for magic, well, magic has actually collapsed...
At that time, the entire league will change due to the model of the Big Three Rockets...
"A game that determines the future of the league is really interesting."
