I'm the boss in the NBA

Chapter 301 Maddie Moment
No matter how Artest was retaliated by Su Yi's fans, it couldn't cover up the result of the Nuggets losing Su Yi.

After Su Yi was carried off the court, although the Nuggets still won the game with the help of Su Yi's free throws and possession of the ball due to a malicious foul, this does not mean that the Nuggets will win the final victory .

After the game, Su Yi was checked by the hospital and it was determined that there was a bone fracture and sprain in his ankle, which slightly hurt his muscles and bones. This was caused by being stepped on by Artest with his sneakers when he landed. Although the bone fracture was not serious, It will not affect Su Yi's career, but he will not be able to recover within a few days, and he is not even allowed to walk, because the general manager of the Nuggets, Whitney, has already pinned Su Yi to death. In the hospital, he was not even allowed to watch the game between the Rockets and the Nuggets.

Whitney was very angry. He had already asked Coach D'Antoni not to let Su Yi play again, but Coach D'Antoni was still dazzled by the illusory victory. It is simply unforgivable to make a black hand against Su Yi, or let Su Yi go on the court to face that villain. If it wasn't for Su Yi's persuasion, Whitney would even want D'Antoni, a disobedient idiot, to get out of the Nuggets.

As for the Rockets and Nuggets tied 2-2 at their respective home courts, there were no surprises in the next game. The Rockets won two consecutive victories and kicked the Nuggets out.

In fact, it is more accurate to say that the Nuggets lost their final chance to win because of Su Yi's injury. Without Su Yi, the Nuggets can only be regarded as a bottom-tier team in the NBA. As a point of support, even if the team has a lot of skill, they can only use five points. How can this win the Rockets who are united as one?

NBA games pay attention to the winner is king, although Artest of the Rockets has been banned by the league for [-] regular season games, this punishment does not start at the beginning of the playoffs, but at the beginning of next season , but this did not affect the Rockets too much. Compared with the Rockets losing Artest, the Nuggets losing Su Yi is the disaster.

Artest is just an excellent perimeter defender. The Rockets don't rely on him for scoring. After losing Su Yi, the Nuggets lost the courage to continue. This is the role of a star player.

After the Nuggets lost the game, the Rockets, which won 4 to 2, rested for three days. Next, they will meet the Los Angeles Lakers, who have fought the Spurs in seven games in the Western Conference Finals.

To say that in this playoffs, the Lakers' journey to the playoffs this year was not smooth. The opponents in the first round, the Dallas Mavericks, almost didn't stop the Lakers in the first round, especially when the Mavericks sacrificed the Rockets. If McGrady hadn't made an ultra-long three-pointer at the last moment, I am afraid that the Lakers would not have the chance to play the seventh game, let alone win the Dallas Mavericks in the seventh game.

In the second round, the Los Angeles Lakers ran into this season's western regular season overlord, the San Antonio Spurs, which is also a veteran team. Since the Spurs selected Duncan with the No. The team is one of the toughest opponents.

Just like playing against the Mavericks, coach Popovich also used the shark-cutting tactics in this game. Those who defended Shaquille O'Neal were unwilling to touch the ball. Not only did the Spurs and Mavericks use similar tactics, even the final The same goes for losing.

The Mavericks were won by McGrady with a super long three-pointer at the end of the sixth game, and the Spurs were also killed by McGrady's sudden explosion in the sixth game when they were leading 3-2.

McGrady not only broke out, he not only led the team to win the game under almost impossible circumstances, but also broke a league record.

It has to be said that Tracy McGrady may be the man who touched God, otherwise no one could do what he did. His performance not only shocked the fans all over the United States, but even many fans of him appeared all over the world.

It is undeniable that McGrady contributed the most classic game of his career in the sixth game against the Spurs. There is no one. There is no comparable classic game in NBA history.

As the old opponent of the Lakers, the Spurs are not weaker than the Lakers in terms of hard power. The more mature Duncan is not afraid of O'Neal, so they won 3 games in the first five games. They also took the lead into the final moments of the game.

With 1 minute and 02 seconds left in the game, when Coach Mayfair Jackson called a timeout, the Lakers were still behind by as much as 10 points. At that time, the Los Angeles fans left the field one after another. They couldn't bear to see their team once again lost to the opponent. Defeat, last season was the Rockets, this season may be the Spurs, look at the points behind at that time, and look at the last little time left, many people retreated, and there were very few spectators left in the end.

Everyone already believes that the outcome of this game has been decided. The Lakers will lose this round of the series by a big score of 2 to 4. The Spurs and the Rockets will meet in the Western Conference Finals. They will compete for the only competition Chance for a championship.

However, what no one expected was that McGrady used his magical performance to lead the Los Angeles Lakers to complete a shocking reversal that was almost impossible to complete.

With 44 seconds left in the game and the Lakers trailing by 8 points, Tracy McGrady started his show. He hit a direct shot from beyond the three-point line, and then the Lakers called a tactical foul and the Spurs made two free throws.

But McGrady then played a pick-and-roll with O'Neal, causing Duncan to foul outside the three-point line, and hit a shot, and the four-pointer was successful. The Lakers continued to use foul tactics. Under the tough defense of Bruce Bowen, he hit another 3-pointer against the sky.

This record is that in the last 35 seconds of the game, McGrady scored 13 points with shots and penalties, leading the Lakers to reverse and win the Spurs. After the game, this impact was widely circulated and praised by fans as a miracle , Later also known as the "McGrady moment".

After the game, McGrady has been regarded by the Lakers fans as a superstar with the same reputation as O'Neal. In the past, many fans missed Kobe Bryant and thought that trading Kobe for McGrady was a failed deal, but here After one game, everyone changed their minds. They finally saw McGrady's strength and recognized him as one of the leaders of the Lakers.

In the last game, although it was the home court of the Spurs, they seemed to have been fooled by the previous game. Although coach Popovic was bouncing off the court to encourage his players, the Spurs Still lost before the offensive of the Lakers O'Neal and Tracy McGrady.

The Lakers won two games in a row to win the Spurs, and they will also face the mighty Houston Rockets in the Western Conference Finals.
