Chapter 220 I Knew You Wouldn't Agree With Me Retiring Tonight!
Penguin Sports Live.

"666666! Brothers! Shout out the slogan! Lakers championship!"

"Is this year's playoffs so exciting? The Lakers overturned the Thunder as soon as they came up! This is the next crime!"

"Lin Tian's desperate three-pointer abruptly delayed Kobe's retirement battle!"

"To be honest, I think the Thunder have the strength to challenge for the championship this year, but they actually fell in the first round? It's unbelievable!"

"Lin Tianzhen played a superb performance! Durant is eclipsed in front of him!"

"I thought Lin Tian was invincible enough in the regular season, who knew that the playoffs would be his real stage!"

"As a Durant fan, my mother's mood is really mixed!"

"Brothers! I have a hunch that Durant will leave the Thunder this summer!"

……

"Ahhhhhh! My God! I've been promoted! I've been promoted!"

Xiaoxue threw away the pillow excitedly, and kissed Lan Lan's cheek again and again.

She never dreamed that the Lakers would beat the third-ranked Thunder in the Western Conference.

Lan Lan finally pushed Xiaoxue away, she said dissatisfiedly: "Xiaoxue! Can't you be more ladylike? If you win, you win!"

"Do you know what the lore in the tiebreaker means? The opponent is the Thunder with Gemini!"

"I don't know, I just know that today's game looks really enjoyable. I, who haven't watched the game much, feel very excited."

"Hey! I won't tell you anymore! I have to write an article quickly!"

……

Pisacek Energy Center.

Everything has been settled, and everything seems to have never begun.

Durant, wearing the No. 35 jersey, was still standing where Lin Tian was defending just now.

He looked forward with a slightly dull gaze, as if he was still immersed in Lin Tian's goal just now, and he was out of tune with the people around him.

Ibaka next to Durant kept shaking his head, muttering something.

Westbrook vented his anger on the basketball. He picked up the ball and slammed it on the ground, his eyes full of anger and dissatisfaction.

After a long while, Westbrook seemed to remember something, walked up to Durant who was in a daze, and lightly patted Durant on the shoulder: "KD, our luck is too bad, let's fight again next season!"

Durant seemed to have not heard Westbrook's words, he remained expressionless.

Just when he was about to leave the arena, he remembered that he hadn't congratulated the Lakers, so he walked towards Kobe with complicated feelings.

After briefly congratulating the Lakers players, the distraught Durant walked to the locker room silently.

The players' tunnel was lined with home fans.

Although they were extremely dissatisfied with the team's performance today, they doted on Durant, who played two eyes in the audience, and shouted to Durant from time to time:
"KD! You've tried your best! We can see it! It's not your fault!"

"KD! Fight again in the coming year!"

"We are still young! We have a lot of opportunities!"

Durant just lowered his head. He didn't high-five the fans who gave him encouragement, and he didn't even dare to look into the eyes of the fans who had loved him for nine years.

When that rookie made that fatal three-pointer, Durant knew it was time to leave.

……

Although not at the Staples Center, the entire Lakers team still celebrated on the court for 5 minutes.

Kobe kept repeating a sentence to Lin Tian: "I knew you kid wouldn't let me retire tonight!"

After returning to the locker room, Lin Tian was watered by his teammates again.

Nick Young also picked up his mobile phone to take a few videos.

He didn't forget to show off his serve, and said while taking a selfie: "Guys! Needn't I say more about my serve?"

Howard smiled and said, "Come on! Nick! Stop putting money on your face, haha!"

"Hey hey! Dwight, if you were serving the ball, I bet you wouldn't even be able to serve it."

"Who said that? It's just a serve! Isn't it a very simple thing?"

Lin Tian was not in the mood to listen to their bickering. He had time to read tonight's data sheet after changing his shoes.

没想到今晚的他竟然在不知不觉中砍下了50分10篮板7助攻5抢断3盖帽6失误。

This kind of data is no longer just described by the word Almighty.

而雷霆今天打得最好的无疑是杜兰特，他的数据是39分8篮板5助攻3抢断1盖帽5失误。

Both Lin Tian and Durant played more than 40 minutes.

Tonight's them, it is not an exaggeration to describe them with everything they have.

It's just that Lady Luck is on the Lakers' side.

I don't know who suddenly teased: "Haha! KD is about to be beaten to tears tonight!"

Only then did Lin Tian remember that the Thunder in his previous life had made it to the Western Conference Finals this season, and almost overturned the Warriors!
But after all, they were turned over by the Warriors with a big score of 3:1.

Durant was more sad than heartbroken because of this, and left the Thunder directly.

In this life, the Thunder was overthrown by the even weaker Lakers!Durant's departure is probably even more inevitable.

But whether Durant will go to the Warriors will be a big question mark.

Because Lin Tian believes that they now have the qualifications to challenge the Warriors!

The post-match interview lasted more than an hour.

When Lin Tian, ​​Kobe, and Howard returned to the locker room, other Lakers players were still waiting for them in the locker room.

Although it was getting late, Bass, who was far away in Los Angeles just now, still called and said that he would treat them to a supper tonight and he would reimburse them.

Although everyone is not short of money, no one will refuse if they can get the boss a meal.

So, after the players left the Pisacek Energy Center, they went straight to one of the most expensive restaurants in Oklahoma City.

They spent $10 a night, mostly alcohol.

When we got back to the hotel, it was already 4 o'clock in the morning.

Lin Tian was so tired, he didn't take a shower, and fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the bed.

The next morning, it was very rare for Lin Tian not to get up too early.

According to the team's arrangement, they will fly to Los Angeles at two o'clock this afternoon, so there is no need to worry.

Only then did he turn on his phone.

Last night, he didn't have much time to check the time even if he was in the western restaurant.

As he expected, there were many unread messages on the phone, including messages from Sistine.

Sistine: oh my god!What a fantastic night!Forest!Congratulations on reaching the Western Conference Semifinals!I am proud of you!

Lin Tian: Thank you!Sistine, I'm sorry, I was too tired last night and didn't look at my phone.

Two minutes later, Sistine texted back.

Sistine: I guessed it. I'll be waiting for you in Los Angeles.
