You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 527 No.1 Privileges
On June 2008, 6, Game15.

The battle between the Lakers and the Celtics at Tianwangshan is inevitably reminiscent of the same matchup between the two sides 24 years ago, which also reached Tianwangshan.

In Tianwangshan in 1984, the performance of Bird and Magician in that game made it impossible to see that they were rivals.

那一战，伯德出场42分钟，20投15中，得到34分17篮板2助攻2抢断；魔术师出场39分钟，9投3中，得到10分5篮板13助攻2抢断2封盖。

The Celtics deservedly won that game.

That was the beginning of magicians being criticized by thousands of people. However, anyone who plays this kind of "Xiao Feng is a good man, he is as famous as you" will be scolded until he can't take care of himself.

Tonight, the best outcome for the Lakers is that they defend the home court, lock the match point, and then return to the North Shore Garden to fight the Celtics to the death.

The best ending for the Celtics is naturally that they follow the example of the celebrities 24 years ago, win the crucial fifth game, and then return home to give the Lakers the final blow.

The starting lineups of the Lakers and Celtics have not changed. Both sides think that their lineups are good and there is no need to make any adjustments.

With the opening jump ball, the Lakers won the ball as usual.

The basketball flew into Wei Xia's hands. He didn't return it to Fisher, but accelerated, trying to make a surprise attack.

Kevin Garnett locked him up.

The Wolf King originally thought that his teammates would cause some trouble for the advancing Wei Xia, but they didn't.Wei Xia was like returning to his own home, he came and went as he wanted, and his goal was directly locked on the basket.

In the paint area, Wei Xia jumped into the air and hit a layup.

Behind him, a pitch-black hand roughly held down his ball.

"Beep!"

Although Garnett was brave, it was a goaltend.

2 is better than 0
The Celtics then gave the Lakers a little surprise.

Complicated tactics, Ray Allen ran to the central position.

Wei Xia, who followed him, only felt that their tactics seemed to have been seen before-then, in the middle position, Garnett set up a back screen, he was hung up, Allen ran out of the top of the arc, and Pau Gasol actively assisted in the defense.

His motivation was good, but full of holes, and he was easily wiped by Allen, bursting to the basket and scoring a layup.

2 is better than 2
Next, Fisher caused a kill and hit all the free throws.

4 is better than 2
The Lakers pursue high-intensity defense, and the victory of Game3 is like telling them that they can do what the Celtics can do.

Who said decent people can't roll up their sleeves and work harder?They have to use the strengths of the Celtics to defeat the Celtics!

The biggest feeling of the Celtics: The Lakers played harder than the last game.

They tried their best to prevent their opponents to death, and the purpose and focus of the Lakers could be seen from various angles.

Their determination is surprising. The Celtics never thought that the Lakers would be even crazier than them in terms of defense and physical contact.

"Young man, take it easy, if you want to see it through."

Ray Allen was upset by Wei Xia, and said.

Wei Xia took greater efforts: "Thank you for reminding me, if I am 30 years old, it may be useful."

He proudly and confidently stated that he is young enough to continue at this level of intensity.

Then, the Celtics' offensive rhythm was interrupted.

Rondo struggled to pass the ball to Pierce. The latter encountered Kobe's single defense from the outside.

Rondo didn't look like anyone was guarding him, he showed up under the basket and just needed a nice lob!

Bryant's defense was underestimated, and he made Pierce unable to even send a comfortable lob.

That lob hit the basket and looked like a shot. If it went in, it would be an own goal.

The rebound was called by Radmanovich, and the Lakers' counterattack went to the frontcourt in an instant. The teammate's long pass was passed to Weisha. He raised his hand, and Ray Allen jumped up as if he was about to shoot.

Then, "Jesus" heard a soft snort from "Mortal".

Wesha dribbled the ball through Ray Allen, went to the paint area of ​​the Celtics, ran into Garnett who was rushing back to defend at full speed, but hit the ground and passed the ball to Gasol who followed them.

Let Garnett suppress for four games, and Gasol, who likes to mention the title of "sister-in-law", still has a chance to prove that he is a real man.

However, the Garnett he wants to beat is the best defensive player of the year since Mutombo in 2001.

How a true defender moves quickly, protects the paint, controls the defensive rebound, and steps lightly to control all angles.Even if you search NBA history, you have to go back to the 1993-1994 season to find a better paint controller than him.

The trapeze landed, the dream was reborn, and people saw how the top center dominated the game.

Gasol's follow-up not only failed to complete the offense, but also ruined Wei Xia's wonderful pass, which was blocked by Garnett.

However, the Celtics, who have completed an excellent defense, still need to return to the offensive end to face the Lakers' defense.

The Lakers have become strangers to them.

Ever since the Lakers used their iron-blooded defense to win Game 4, defeating their opponents in areas they are good at has become something that excites them.

Although it is tiring to do that, they are willing to persevere.

Bad offense, another round, Ray Allen made a three-pointer from the outside, was strongly interfered by Wei Xia, the arc of the shot was even crooked, it was impossible to score at first glance.

Wei Xia picked up the long rebound that popped out.

Kobe growled: "Give it to me!"

It was a terrible sound.

If I don't give up the past, today is the day of my death.Wei Xia spared his life and threw the ball over.

The moment Kobe took the ball, at least four Celtics returned to defense. His absolute speed was not enough to shake them off, so they rushed to the frontcourt together, inside the three-point line, inside the free throw line, inside the paint area, and under the basket.

Kobe wants to show an attitude.

He screamed when confronted.

The sound of the mamba awakened the referee's muscular reaction of blowing the whistle when he heard the ghost of the superstar, as if he had forgotten how intense the game was, and put the whistle to his mouth like a robot and blew it.

After the blow was over, they realized: No, do we have to call a foul for this kind of confrontation?

Kobe, who caused the damage, scanned every Celtic player who followed him to the frontcourt with sharp eyes. His eyes were full of fire and murderous intent. He didn't say a word, but the meaning of "you are already corpses!" is obvious to all.

This year, the league's playoff slogan is: "There can be only one."

For Kobe, that person is him, it must be him, it can only be him, and he will kill whoever stops him.

He fought too hard in the first few games, and his free throw feel was very poor.

Today, the first time he hit the free throw line, his shot was still a little unstable, the ball circled inside the ring and rolled into it.

In the second serve, the unstable touch brought about by the fierce confrontation caused his free throw to miss.

However, Perkins, who entered the line early, allowed Kobe to get one more free throw opportunity.

As a result, Kobe also missed his third free throw, but it was still Perkins, who is definitely the cutest person in the eyes of Lakers fans.

First came an early goal, and then a card foul, giving the Lakers the ball for nothing.

He didn't make any excuses, just staring blankly.

The Lakers' sideline ball was sent to Kobe's hands, and Wei Xia moved to the free throw line according to the tactics.

Usually, this position belongs to Gasol.

But his performance in front of Garnett made it impossible for him to be the axis, so Wei Xia took the initiative to take his job.

While he was taking the ball from the free throw line, he attracted Garnett to defend. Wesha immediately lobbed the ball to the basket with both hands, helping the Spaniard dunk with both hands.

"Strike, Paul!" Wecha shouted. "That's it!"

6 is better than 2
After encouraging Gasol, Wei Xia stayed in the frontcourt with a smile on his face.

"Mind if I press you up front now?" Wei Xia asked Rondo.

Rondo said coldly: "You will not succeed!"

"You may be right!" Wei Xia pushed his broad and thick chest behind Rondo, "But I never ask about the result, just the process!"

Wei Xia, who wanted to give Rondo a ruthless hand, didn't grasp the scale well, he was too fierce.

Within five seconds, the referee called him a foul.

A small episode that didn't attract anyone's attention passed with Wei Xia's wry smile.

Rondo was not forced to death, his speed and athletic ability, as well as the basic skills of movement control are all passed.The huge palm is the biggest obstacle for him to improve his shooting, but at the same time, it also allows him to control the ball in the most stable way.

What scares Rondo the most is that it becomes difficult to dribble the ball across the half court, and this difficulty, for the positional warfare and offense they face, is like those who watch Liu Xiaoqing play a pretty girl.Choosing to watch is just an easy decision, the hard part is how you hold back your vomiting during the process.

Garnett came out to respond outside.

Rondo gave the ball, and Garnett handed it to Ray Allen who ran out to get the ball.

Since Rondo has no threat on the outside, Wei Xia and Fisher have a smooth handover.

Garnett then handed the ball to Allen and took the initiative to run to the low post on the left.

The basketball changed hands to Fisher, and then to him, and it looked like the Celtics were finally getting their shot.

However, Kobe did exactly what Jordan did before the shot of the century.He sneaked up behind Garnett and stepped forward to grab the ball. He slapped the ball to the ground without a single hit, let alone let the wolf king get down. He caught the ball by surprise.

The Wolf King hugged the ball tightly, and Kobe's hand penetrated through the circle of his arms. At that moment, in the eyes of the referee, Kevin Garnett did not have a cylinder.

Kobe scooped up the ball roughly, and Rivers was very annoyed. He waved from the referee to imitate Kobe's steal: "TMD! Do you want him to pinch off KG's hand before calling a foul?"

Wei Xia was stunned after watching it. Compared with Kobe's stealing action, what is his confrontation with Rondo?

Is this the regular season MVP?
Is this the privilege of Alliance No.1?
There was also an episode in the frontcourt. Wei Xia thought they were two-on-three and there was no pressure. As a result, Kobe's pass was intercepted by Rondo.What's outrageous is that Rondo took the ball and was intercepted by Kobe before taking a few steps.What's even more outrageous is that Gasol, who was completely open, made a three-point shot after receiving Kobe's pass.

"The Spaniard is crushed by the pressure," Michael Thompson said. "The Lakers can't count on his offense at all."

"However, as long as his defense is in place, the offense doesn't really matter."

After all, the Lakers never lack offensive players.
