NBA: The start beat Kobe Bryant in his old age

Chapter 344 33!Big score equalizer!

After the two team doctors communicated for a while, they still bit the bullet and helped Lin Tian tear off the bandage on his left foot.

All the players quickly gathered around, staring at Lin Tian's ankle intently.

I saw that Lin Tian's ankle smeared with the liquid medicine was still swollen, which was in sharp contrast with his right foot.

This made all of them feel cold!It's been several days and the swelling hasn't subsided.

Although the news released by the Lakers' official media was to rest for at least three weeks.

But every Lakers player is actually praying in his heart that Lin Tian can return as soon as possible.

After the first two battles, the confidence of the players was almost shattered.

Lin Tian is the veritable soul of the Lakers. Without him, the players don't even know how to play the Warriors next.

Now that Lin Tian's injury has not improved much, how can they not be disappointed.

Lin Tian was undoubtedly the most disappointed. He walked around the locker room in slippers, still feeling obvious pain.

With this kind of physical condition, I can't even participate in team training, let alone play games.

Scott came over: "Lin, take care of your injuries at home, and you don't have to go to Oakland with everyone tomorrow."

The G6 game between the Lakers and the Warriors was scheduled for the night after tomorrow, and the time was very hasty.

Nick Yang also nodded and said: "Yes! Lin, you just stay in Los Angeles, we will bring back the damn division championship trophy!"

Normally, if he said that, there would probably be laughter in the locker room, but today everyone couldn't laugh at all.

They knew very well that without Lin Tian, ​​their odds of winning were pitifully low.

Lin Tian gritted his teeth: "Although I can't make an appearance, I will go to Golden State with the team! I want to witness with my own eyes that we beat the Warriors!"

His cheering words are much more effective than Nick Young's words, and other players also nodded.

Only the team doctor looked puzzled. After all, with an injury like Lin Tian's, it's best not to go anywhere.

When Lin Tian returned home, there were already a lot of news on social media:
[Lin Tian is wearing protective boots to watch G5!Witnessing the bloodbath of the team with my own eyes, I can't hide the loneliness in my eyes! 】

[The Western Conference Finals G5 Lakers ended in a disastrous defeat!The Splash Brothers check in three times a day! 】

[Durant Curry combined to score 80 points!The Lakers can't limit Durant at all! 】

[Scott was interviewed after the game and bluntly said that Lin Tian's recovery is average, and it has been determined that he will not be able to play in G6. 】

[Kobe came to the Staples Center in person, and after three quarters, the effect of guiding the juniors was remarkable, but the team fell too far behind and couldn't recover! 】

The next afternoon, Lin Tian arrived at Oracle Arena in Oakland with the team.

He no longer wears protective boots, but can only wear slippers.

The swollen big ankle made him unable to wear the previous sneakers.

Seeing his teammates sweating profusely in the training hall one by one, Lin Tian felt itchy hands.

He got up to pick up a ball and was about to shoot when the team doctor next to him quickly said, "Lin, you'd better not touch the basketball right now."

Ignoring the team doctor's words, Lin Tian raised his hand and scored a three-pointer.

This scared Kupchak not far away.

Kupchak ran over: "Lin! I know you really want to touch the ball, but you are not suitable for these actions right now."

As the general manager of the Lakers, Kupchak rarely played away games with the team before.

This time I will come to Auckland, purely because of fear of leaving.

Lin Tian shook his head: "No one can stop me from touching the ball!"

As he spoke, he waved to the shooting training room under the basket, motioning for the opponent to pass the ball.

Although the man seemed a little hesitant, he still passed the ball.

Lin Tian continued to practice shooting. Now he is limited by his injuries, and it is difficult for him to practice other sports.

The next morning, Lin Tian felt that his injury was a little better, not as swollen as before.

So he continued to train with the team, still simple shooting training.

As a basketball player, he knows very well that it is difficult to maintain the ball if he does not touch the ball for a few days.

In order to be able to return to the court early, he must maintain shooting practice.

At first, the team doctor and Kupchak strongly opposed it, until they found that this was not only useless, but would also irritate Lin Tian, ​​so they gave up.

In the evening, G6 of the Western Conference Finals kicked off, and Lin Tian was still sitting on the bench in a suit and leather shoes.

What he didn't expect was that NBA President Xiao Hua also appeared in the arena today.

This game is extremely critical for both sides. If the Lakers win, they will win the Western Conference championship.

If the Lakers lose, the big score will be tied at 3:3...

The starting lineups of the two sides were released soon, the Lakers' starting lineup remained unchanged, and the Warriors' Zaza returned to the starting position after experiencing a suspension.

I don't know if he has a great hatred for Zaza. At the beginning of the game, Howard played very fiercely, making Zaza inside unable to fight back.
The intensity of the confrontation between the two sides is obviously greater than the previous game.

Dellavedova and Wade on the outside of the Lakers locked the Splash Brothers tightly.

And Durant is mainly defended by Tucker today.

Although Tucker is not as tall as Durant, his confrontation ability is stronger than Jeff Green.

He likes to actively seek confrontation, which also makes him defend Durant fairly well.

So much so that after the first half, the Lakers even led by 5 points!
This is the first time the Lakers lead the Warriors since Lin Tian was injured, which is really rare.

Lin Tian also saw the hope of winning, and he came to the locker room during the halftime break to say something.

At the start of the second half, the Lakers still withstood the Warriors' first wave of offense.

But when the Warriors replaced the dead five, removed Zaza, and started to speed up, the Lakers couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

In addition, Curry made a few more fairy balls, and their rhythm was completely lost.

From being tied by the Warriors to overtaking by 10 points, it only took 3 minutes.

Durant also began to harden up. Against Tucker's tough defense, he made unsolvable mid-range shots again and again.

After three quarters, the Warriors have overtaken by 17 points.

Although this is not enough to turn the fourth quarter into garbage time, everyone knows that the Lakers have little hope of winning.

After the final quarter, the Warriors still maintained a very high shooting rate.

On the Lakers side, due to the high-intensity confrontation in the first three quarters, their physical strength dropped significantly.

Their speed, the naked eye can not keep up with the Warriors players.

Scott, who has been in the limelight this season, is sitting on pins and needles at this time, scratching his bald head non-stop.

He has fully recognized his coaching ability!Without Lin Tian, ​​he is nothing!

Unlike G5, today's Lakers fought to the last moment.

hum...

When the buzzer sounded, the score was completely frozen at 127:113.

The Lakers lost by 14 points, and the two sides tied the score!

This also means that the Lakers and Warriors will reach the Western Conference Finals for the second time in a row!
