326:An inappropriate thought(2/2)
But now, the entire Lakers team has conflicts.
The Lakers have been so bad this season that it could fill an online novel.
Let’s not talk about the conflict between O’Neal and Kobe.
O'Neal also had conflicts with the management. Last summer, the Lakers approached O'Neal to negotiate a contract extension and were only willing to give O'Neal a two-year contract worth 42 million, which greatly humiliated O'Neal.
O'Neal is not young and wanted a long-term contract, but the Lakers only gave him a 1-1 contract, which clearly shows that they do not value him.
Ajan: 1 1 is not good?
Therefore, O'Neal has been looking for a spare tire. He doesn't want to play for the Lakers at all next season.
Now that things are like this, do you think he can still play for the Lakers wholeheartedly?
Kobe also had conflicts with Zen Master, because Kobe always liked to play unreasonable balls and did not listen to Zen Master. Kobe thought he was very strong. Since Jordan can not listen to you, why can’t I? But there is one thing to say, the current Kobe is not as good as Jordan
His kind of dominance can be summed up as he is both good and independent.
Therefore, Zen Master did not want to spoil him, and had a very bad relationship with Kobe. For a period of time, Zen Master even applied to the team to trade Kobe.
Because of this, Jackson also has conflicts with the Lakers management. Jackson has always wanted to join the Lakers management, not just be a part-time coach, but the Lakers have always refused to give him this right. The trade of Kobe Bryant was rejected, which is why the Lakers
Management's attitude.
In addition, the conflict between Jackson and Payton, the conflict between Jackson and O'Neal, the conflict between Kobe and Malone, the conflict between O'Neal and Malone...
It's more complicated than a harem drama. To be honest, such a completely disintegrated team can reach this point, which is enough to show how powerful Kobe and O'Neal's personal abilities are.
So the Lakers are worse than they were in the regular season. The reason why they are able to play now is because Duncan is troubled by plantar fasciitis and is not in his best condition. And the Spurs' other top-paid player also has difficulty scoring.
.
If Deng Shu had his temper a few years ago, the Lakers would have been gone.
In the original history, the reason why the Lakers were able to kill the powerful Timberwolves was because Cassell was suddenly injured, which gave the Timberwolves one less offensive point.
Also, in the G6 life-and-death battle, the little-known shooting guard Kareem Rush on the Lakers bench suddenly broke out and made 6 of 7 three-pointers in the game, completely destroying the Timberwolves.
If God wants to kill the wolf, the wolf must die.
Generally speaking, the Lakers were able to advance out of the Western Conference in F4, not only because Kobe and O'Neal were really strong, but also because they also had some luck.
In the finals, luck stopped helping the Lakers, and they were swept by the Pistons.
So, if the Lakers really advance again this time...
Li Ang had a very bold and inappropriate idea.
If we say last year, after Li Ang ended the Lakers' dynasty, the Lakers still didn't give up.
So this year, if, just if.
What if we could sweep the Lakers directly!?
It sounds like a dog when you think about it, but it’s so exciting.
Of course, the premise is that the Lakers advance.
If the Spurs advance, that would be a different story.
At this time, the world's focus is on the Lakers and Spurs.
Because in the East, the two teams participating in the Eastern Conference Finals have already been formed, and there is no doubt that they are the Pistons and the Bulls.
The only thing left is for the Spurs and Lakers to decide the winner, and this year's conference finals can begin.
Under the spotlight, the G7 series between the Spurs and the Lakers also came one after another.
In today's game, it was obvious that Duncan worked very hard and gave almost everything he had.
But Popovich's favorite guard, Bowen, ah, no, Bowen, betrayed the old thief's trust.
Today, Bowen not only failed to restrict Kobe on the defensive end, he also made 0 of 7 shots from the field.
People who can neither attack nor defend are called combo guards.
Today, Bowen is a combo guard.
As we all know, Bowen's offense usually involves catching the ball and shooting from a spot, and his shooting percentage is generally guaranteed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But today, Bowen just couldn't make a shot, and he was also hitting the big open space like crazy.
When Bowen couldn't make a shot, Kobe had the energy to wipe Payton's butt and double-team Kidd like crazy.
Kidd has difficulty scoring to begin with, and when he is flanked again, he instantly becomes a big shot-blocker.
Calculating this way, out of the five members of the Spurs team, two of them could not score points in an instant.
Duncan almost cried!
The Spurs boss also cried. He never imagined that the league's number one point guard, whom he had signed for a maximum salary last summer, would score zero points when he was needed most, in the tiebreaker of the series.
Hang zero!
That's right, Kidd's statistics for today's game were 0 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 3 steals. The statistics are so versatile that he deserves to be a point guard!
Low emotional intelligence: fight a few times.
High emotional intelligence: traditional point guard!
The score in the tiebreaker is zero, this is Kidd's old traditional skill. It happened once in the original history with the Nets, and now it happens again with the Spurs.
This example once again proves that some things just don’t exist if they don’t exist, even if they come several times!
The Spurs boss is going to call the police. How many tractors do you have to sell to earn back the money to sign Kidd?
Although Yao Dao came off the bench to help Duncan share some of the pressure, the Spurs ultimately lost in the tiebreaker due to the performance of the double-zero back line of Bowen and Kidd.
At the end of the game, the Spurs players were very disappointed.
The camera showed Popovich, and the old man's eyes were dull.
Popovich is also a person who has experienced many things, and this is not the first time he has experienced failure.
But this time, Popovich felt particularly disappointed. Because this opponent...was chosen by himself!
He studied for a long time how to beat the Lakers in the playoffs and how to reach the Western Conference Finals in the easiest way.
Study after study, until you have exhausted your own research.
Popovich looked at the two guards with zero points and the Lakers who were falling apart but winning the game, and clenched his fists.
The last time the Spurs won a championship was a long time ago.
At that time, the Admiral was still there, and at that time, it was impossible for Duncan to be squeezed into the second team.
but now......
Popovich couldn't stand it anymore. He didn't want to fail again and again.
The old man stared at the Lakers players fiercely and made up his mind.
From now on, he can't lose again!
No matter what the means, even if he uses some dirty methods, he will win!
If the opponent's star can't be guarded, take him off the field!
When they lost to the Suns in the regular season this year, the old Veach actually had this idea.
But he thought, playing the Lakers shouldn't have to go that far.
But now, Popovich has realized it.
There are some troubles that need to be cleared up in advance!
To get rid of future troubles!
Kobe walked off the court solemnly. Although he won, he did not hug or celebrate with his teammates, nor did he smile.
For the Lakers F4, it's a shame that the Western Conference semifinals were so difficult.
The moment this lineup was formed, it meant that they would fail if they didn't win the championship.
We have just passed the second level now. There is nothing to be happy about if you win.
Facing the reporters' cameras, Kobe still didn't smile at all, as if the Lakers were the loser.
"Bryant, we all know that the Suns are a very powerful opponent, and Li Ang is also your mortal enemy. If there is a tiebreaker in the next round of the series, can you withstand it?"
Kobe raised his head and stared at the camera fiercely: "If we play another 100 tiebreakers, we will win. Leon, come on!"
Li Ang looked at Kobe making harsh words on TV and nodded in agreement.
Ah, yes, yes, who can beat you in a tiebreaker with a physical monster like you? You can recover blood by sucking your own sweat. Your ability to be self-sufficient is really amazing.
In the tiebreaker, I, Li Ang, feel inferior.
but......
There’s no way the next round will reach a tiebreaker!
If that really happened...
